All right, everybody. Welcome to the Past Times podcast. Each week we go through an old newspaper from a random date in history picked out by Dave Anthony. I'm Gareth Reynolds and I've never seen it before and neither is our guest this week. The great Trey Crowder. Hi Trey, welcome back. Back once again, ready to venture into the into the past.

The olden days. Yeah. Or there's no better guides than Dave and I. Dave and I are we're kind of wonks. Yeah. Dave, after all your years of traipsing through the past, like if you like, do you do you find that every area is kind of the same or is it actually more horrific at certain times? Because it always the past seems like a real horror show to me. But then other times it's like, well, humans are humans. Do you find that every area is kind of the same or is it actually more horrific at certain times? Because it always, the past seems like a real horror show to me, but then other times it's

like, well, humans are humans. Things are always bad. Yeah, I think it's kind of always the same. I mean, you have periods where things go up and down. Like, you know, like we had a great period where everyone was taking vaccines and now they're not going to. So yeah. So this would be a down, down one.

Yeah. Until we call enough of the herd and then we can track on the upswing. Awesome. It's going to be great when we eat RFK. Dave, would you swap today for another time or do you think we're about to enter the worst of it? What do you think? Because it's adding tech into today is very strange.

Yeah, I mean, and I did a little reading this morning on AI and what they're doing. Yeah, I think I would swap it with another time. Interesting, interesting. But which one? Like, you just go back to the 90s or you'd be like? Yeah, I would go back to like the 70s. The 90s would be great to redo.

The 90s were the best. That's what I was thinking. The five-pitch changer. Yeah. You know what I mean? They were... Oh, shit. But we didn't...

Like, no one cared about anything. Everyone was just partying. Like, it was really the most carefree time. It really shows that we didn't care today. Very silly, you know, the attitude Aaron pro wrestling. Yeah little pill Slackers and yeah. Yeah. I murdered Dave's dad Podcast with Corey

Ryan Forrester has been on the show and played his farts. Yeah Yeah, famously put on airs and that which is weird that, because he was kind of letting out airs on ours. And then, Trash Daddy, your new special on YouTube, you said it's the most watched special of all time on YouTube? All time, yes. Setting records, blazing past all who came before me. Yeah, but no, I mean, it could be.

We're on our way, Gary. If all of your fans here at the Pastimes go watch it, I think it'll put me over the top. I can't. We can't. Do you want to know something terrible? Do you want to know something terrible? See this dog back here?

Yeah. Just farted. Oh, nice. That's why we call it Cory. It's really bad. All right. Trey, we're going to guess the year of this newspaper, as we always like to do here at the PTP.

You get to guess first because, as we always like to do here at the PTP, you get to guess first because as I've alluded to before, if you don't, Dave will make sure I lose. It's a whole thing. Dave has some problems. He refuses to seek counsel. He sort of takes it out in these strange ways on the people he loves. And he loves me, but he still sort of is acting out in this way. And my role is to not try to confront it, but to try to kind of work around it like a big stone in a beautiful river. Okay. Well, I don't need to be burning all y'all shit.

Is that what you tell yourself to get through it? You know? Yeah, yeah. So you're just, Dave, please. You're telling yourself that I love you to get through it. Dave, Trey, go ahead. Okay, here's what I, all right. I'm just, there's no like clues or anything.

I can't remember. I just pick a year that I think this newspaper might be from. I'm not gonna give you a clue. Yeah, I don't think I'm gonna do that. Hey, how about, you want me to read you part of this headline? Tremendous frauds are alleged.

There you go. Okay, frauds. 2019. Yeah, I was, so 1884. That's pretty good. I had someone. So what do you get in clues? Someone broke down.

You don't get you don't get to you bring in tremendous frauds or this isn't who this isn't who wants to be a millionaire where you'd reach out to Patty. Like you got like a microfiche database on your phone on your phone just someone has messaged me with the inside story and I can't there is no inside story shut up that's what a guy who was got an inside story would say I guess is really well what I'm gonna guess just leave me alone first of all both of you okay Okay. You think this is two white men ganging up on an English guy? Yeah. Okay.

Look for this show. It's 1923. Trey wins. Wow. This is a first. You what were you doing? You win by default. You.

I've ever won is by default. I think so. I'll take it. 1040 a.m. and Dave, fuck you. 1923? It is April 20th, 1923, and it is the America's Times recorder in America's Georgia. No, I never heard of that.

America's? America's. I've never heard of that. That's like, Trump will bring that back for sure. Being like the states that vote for him will be preceded by an America. Also, 1923, so everything's cruising along in America. Oh, talk about the 90s. Crush everything.

Everything's boom, boom time. And they're starting to tariff it up a little bit. Women were flapping all over the place. They loved to flap in the 20s. Yeah, smoking cigarettes at the end of sticks and stuff. A roaring time, as I recall. Everyone was dressed like the penguin. Exactly.

Exactly, yeah. No booze though. Well, not legal booze. Right? Was Prohibition happening in the 23s? Sure. Why not? Yeah, why not?

Tough time. Yeah, Prohibition was in the 23rd. Yeah, why not? Yeah, why not? Yeah. Tough time. Yeah, Prohibition was in the 1920s. I mean, I wish I could say I knew where this was, but it looks like it's like an hour southeast of Columbus. Is it America, like America plural or it's America? So like, like if we spell it, it's OK, A M E R I C U S. OK, yes, like it is because it's the Cus America's America's America's America's. Yeah. And I'm from America's Georgia.

That oddly sounds more Georgian to me, even though it sounds somehow more. I've been there twice. I think at the same time, but I don't know why it just It's like directly south of and so it's like between Atlanta and Tallahassee basically America's late. I've got that. Yeah, it's a hotbed. That's what they say cold hot bed. Yeah, they're there It's the America's Times recorder Yep. It's the America's Times recorder headline, big headline right across the top.

Jail sentences handed eight millionaires. Tremendous frauds. Whoa. Are alleged. Whoa. That doesn't sound like millionaires defrauding people. Yeah, they got there, yeah, it's a meritocracy. It's always been a meritocracy.

What do you guys think the, what do you think the, what area do you think the crimes were done in like? Banking you think banking fraud Speculating yeah, what it's dealing people's farms to give the railroads Close thing you guys are close. It's uh, it's pottery Okay, the other big one. Yeah pottery profiteers given prison terms and heavy cash fines. One convicted of conspiracy must serve 10 months and pay $5,000 fines too.

Of course they get a- That's always where we fuck up. We've been fucking that up for so long. When you hear about what they're doing in China where they're like, yeah, we threw them in the ocean. And then we're like, we're going to fine you a 90th. Yep. Yeah.

It's like they say, if the punishment for something is a fine, then it's only illegal for poor people. That's how they do it. Right. Yeah. That's why they call it a fine, because they're like, oh, it's not going to affect me. I'll be right. Yeah, why they call it a fine because they're like, oh, it's not gonna affect me. I'll be fine Yeah Seven others found guilty and sentenced to serve six months

said in New York Archibald the Matic president of the Thomas Maddox sons company of Trenton, New Jersey, of course, they're from New Jersey. Those are yeah good 1920s names. Yeah, they really are Archibald Maddox of Maddox and Sons or whatever. Yeah, the dogs obviously. Very comfortable. One of the individuals convicted with 93 pottery manufacturing corporations for conspiracy and restraint of trade.

I didn't, no. How do you even defraud somebody with pots? Honestly. Buy a pot and you get a pot or you don't, right? Yeah, I even defraud somebody with pots Honestly you buy a pot and you get a pot or you don't right even if you're even like a shitty pot I mean, I consider most pots to be fairly right Eddie Yeah, like I don't I don't follow or were they would they were trying to I know this is like towards the end of the gilded Age, right? So were they trying to lock down like a pottery monopoly and like Screw over, you know, any competitors? Even then, the upside is so small.

Ruthlessly robber baron their way into the pottery industry or something? I'm sure they had a, I'm sure they had cornered the pottery market. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Sentenced by federal judge Van Fleet to serve 10 months in the penitentiary and pay a $5,000 fine. Seven other defendants described by the judge as members of the Sanitary Pottery Association as active participants in its price fixing operations. See? There you go. Collusion.

Yeah. Yeah. Pottery collusion. It can't, it's hard to imagine this pottery being this exciting. I agree. I mean, yeah, I can't believe anyone cared in this country about, you know, price. Well, just any of this really. Preclusion, price fixing. Yeah.

But they're like a pottery mob. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's a pottery conglomerate, right? That's what we're talking about. And people had to pay like someone had to go to jail. Yeah. Pottery conglomerate, not for me. I prefer my pottery in a barn. Yes. I'm a pottery barn type of guy.

Well, not really. I've never been there. Never will. Trey, open yourself up a little bit. Take some LSD, go to the pottery barn. You'll understand. I looked up pottery. I just Googled in a couple of the browsers, pottery conglomerate, and

there's nothing there. So what's happening? I don't know. Like someone cornered, these guys cornered, are we talking about like plates and pots? Are we actually talking about? It's not good when you're this level of confound. Because Trey and I are not going to be able to help. Well, again, this is like this era.

There was a lot of this type of shit in just American industry, period. Right. Because it was like, yes. Yeah. When American industry blew up the way, you know, this is the era. The robber barons Rockefeller and all then Vanderbilt and all those dudes. And they were like ruthless and screwing peopleeller and all then Vanderbilt and all those dudes and they were like ruthless and you know screwing people over and all that shit and It sounds like these guys were just trying to do the pottery version of that What Rockefeller did for oil they're trying to do that for the pottery industry and then we're gonna shut down all the mind

Yeah, I mean but ceramics and stuff are used in like electricity, so this was. I guess, yeah, and also probably plumbing and stuff like that, but still. Yeah, all that stuff. It's definitely industrial use. Okay, as long as it's, yeah. I'm picturing like the vases, like.

Well, I think that's what we should all be picturing just for the sake of the show. Take him out back and kill him Mean kill him stop Gareth. Come on. Yeah. Oh, I took me man I get out cuz I was thinking about people who do that themselves like throw throw and know what they call it You throw pots. Don't you would do you know? I mean, yeah, the pigeon the pigeon Shooting thing. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, it's isn't that what it's called?

If you got like this, this is anything. No, you put the play on a spinny thing. I can ghost like in the movie Ghost. Hippie chicks with no bras, like fucking pots in a in a barn. I got a shit. Yeah, go let it cook. That isn't that called throwing? No, I gotta focus. Or a shed. Let him go. Let him cook. But isn't that called throwing, Connery? I've never heard it called throwing. I think that it is.

I'm just picturing a bra-less Demi Moore. Yeah, right. Me ghosting on her back. I don't know about Demi, it's more of a bra-less Laurie Metcalf, usually, I think. In your special, you do talk about how you guys up there in your area come up with weird phrases. So, maybe this is one of the things that is specific to your throwing?

We cannot trust any AI thing anymore, but I Googled throwing pottery and Google's AI overview says, in pottery, throwing refers to the process of shaping clay into vessels on a potter's wheel. OK, you're right. Yeah. I'll tell you one thing. If I die and I got a braless Demi Moore in front of me and I'm feeling her as she makes clay,

I'm going to throw a load on her back. There you go. Throwing loads, throwing pots. What the fuck's wrong with you? Ghost loads. Come on, Dave. Oh, Christ. The boys are enjoying themselves. with you? Ghost loads. Come on, Dave. Oh, Christ. The boys are enjoying themselves.

This is why we're the bad boys, David. You're either leaning or leaning out. It's like a ghost sex crime. That's like your... You can't... Ghosts are allowed to do it. There's no... No.

No. Stop it. No, they're not. There's tons of... You're not going to be to ghost me. Stop it. There's tons of movies where the ghost does stuff it's not supposed to do. That's almost most ghost movies. I'm stuff. It's not supposed to do like that's almost ghost movies

I'm saying it right now. I'm doing whatever I like when I'm gone. Sorry. Yeah I mean, I mean you're both right ghosts do They are prone to sexual assault. I think and assault of all kinds just as they love that I love that like sexual assault fucking opening and cabinets, twisting knobs and shit like that. Like these are things- They're gonna twist my knob. These are the ghosts. No they are.

But Gareth is also right that they can do it cause they're ghosts. What are you gonna do? Ghost court me? Are you gonna bust them? I'm gonna put my knob in the hand of every sleeping person I want. All right, so we're gonna have to now

create a ghost police force. Cause this is- Keep- You're outta your jurisdiction. Except for ghost cops. You're out of your jurisdiction. They actually let it exist. That was founded by Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges, I think. Ghost cops. It did very well at Memories.

Should have called that movie. It did really well, yeah. Imagine being on set of that movie and being like, this is really going to fucking bomb. I'd be like, really? I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body.

I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. I feel like we're checking every body. Yeah Imagine being upset of that movie be like this is really gonna fucking yeah It's men in black but for ghosts it's gonna be sweet is exactly how the guy pitch it away Air thrillers are are promised by bugs. Well, I mean that.

What? This could go so many different ways. Air thrillers are promised by bugs? So bugs is in quotations here. Oh, this is the 20s. Bugs Malone. Yeah, yeah. It's Bugs McGowan.

That's his name. Bugs McCannan. Yeah. That. Yeah, yeah. It's Bugs McGowan. That's his name. Bugs McCannock. Yeah. That's right, boss. Yeah, exactly. That's exactly how he talks. Don't worry, I got wings. I'll fly us right out of here.

Bugs McGowan, nationally known daredevil of the air, says American. Air devil. America's residents will be given the thrill of a lifetime Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock when he promises to perform Some of the most daring and death-defying feats known to aerial acrobatics and a few not so great ones And and one when I die, what's his name? Yeah Bugs McGowan? Yeah, Bugs McGowan. That's the greatest known nation. Why?

Gareth are you looking up to see if he died in a plane? Obviously I'm looking out to see. I'm looking up to find out when he died. I'm hoping it's right now. Surely he did. There's no way bugs live to a ripe old age. I'm hoping it's after this weekend. Dude, aerial daredevil, as, you know, air devil, as Gareth said, in 1923.

That's like, that's, I mean, how long have we even had planes at that point? Honestly. No, you're a badass at that. You're a real badass. Do they still do that? Do people still walk out wings and stuff? Oh, I don't know if they do that. I know, but you know, I mean, I know they have air shows.

They do tricks and shit. Yeah. Yeah. Love that. And then it's fun for the kids until you go to the one where the crash. Firey crash happens in the crowd yet. And they're not as yeah. Burns to death and jet fuel and whatnot.

Numbers of stunts will be performed with airplanes says bugs among which will be what is known as wing walking parachute jumping hanging from wings skidded mid air and other stunts. Wait a minute. So is he, is he doing both? Like he's doing all he's doing up there, but then also like if someone else fine and Bugs is on the wings doing wacky shit. I think most I think most these guys trade it off. Like one guy would fly and then they go walk.

I think that they're like usually teams. Yeah, but you need another guy to die with. Well, Bugs is other guys and getting any shine here, though. I know he's not. That's true. But Bugs is the front man. Yeah. The other guys are like, yeah, you go talk to Bugs. I don't do press.

I'm not getting it up at 8 a.m. There could be a woman like a magician's assistant because they didn't like count at all back then. I don't think they were. Sure. They were literally sawing him in half. He was like, hold your blood in. Right. So if they're out, they might also have been, you know they might also have been making him stand on the wings of planes in the sky. Throw in the propeller.

Give the people a show. Yeah. I'm learning so much over here. Did you find Bugs McGowan? There's just. Is there anything about Bugs? Well, keep going, and then I'll do a where are they now. Well, I'm going to move on to the next story.

Okay. So, he... Bugs... What is the date of this paper? 1923. Okay. I'm pretty sure... I'm pretty sure he dies pretty soon after this.

Uh-huh. Jesus Christ. Okay. So, on July 4th, 1923, he kissed his wife goodbye and headed out to the state fair, blah, blah, blah. It was four years to the day that he first jumped out of a plane. When his teammate decided to opt out of the stunt that independent state, Bugs decided to go it alone. The precarious exploit involved the pilot

setting the plane on fire and jumping out at the last possible moment. Smiles beamed from McGowan's face as he took off in front of a waving, cheering crowd. The next line is, when they found Bugs, he was still smiling, sitting in the cockpit, his lifeless hands wrapped around broken lever controls after his vainly attempt to make yet another good landing.

He was laid to rest in Oak Hill Cemetery near Quitman, which obviously is something he should have done, as his eyes scan the heavens. Yeah, so he was named Wizard of the Air by the Miami Herald. He died like that fat old British Colonel in the mummy with Brendan Fraser. Remember that guy? It's quite a reference.

Yeah. Well, then he dies smiling. Yeah. He's like happy. Last flight. But Bugs was only 21 years old. What was the date, the exact date of this? April 20th is the date. April. So he had a few more months. But wait, April.

It's April. Did you see? He died on May 4th. 20th is April. So he had a few more months. But wait, April, you see, he died on my fourth. But this is an April thing. And he says he's promising to do it in the feet. Like, you know, is it this Sunday or is he's doing it that week in America? OK, all right. He's a couple more months left. Yeah, but it's definitely we're seeing the seeds of his brashness.

It's so funny that like a trick back then was just like setting the plane on fire while you're in it and then just like abandoning it to crash into like a farm or river or pond or school or whatever. It's not really daredevil as much. I mean, I guess it is kind of, but it's just- It's daredevil. It is daredevil. But it's-

Yeah. Well, now I just call it flying spirit air. The past times will be right back. We're back. Go ahead. They they did have a woman with them, actually, apparently. Yeah. McGowan and the flying farmer Macullan, A.B. Macullan, the flying farmer were the main two, and they had a 20 year old female, Mabel Cody, who was the niece of Buffalo Bill Cody.

Oh, wow. And it says she was an instant star. In fact, they were known collectively as Mabel Cody's Flying Circus. So I think maybe... She was the EP. Bugs. This was like a side hustle for Bugs here. He was doing some solo gigs.

Well, I mean, you know, he was he was trying to pay the bills that it wasn't like pottery life back then. You had to find us some side hustle. Anyway, he's dead. Yeah. I mean, well, they're all very dead now. But he's been dead. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Smiling. Smiling. Smiling.

Smiling in the light crash. No way, by the way. No. 10 slowly starving marooned on island. This is out of Minnesota. Cold, half exhausted, three men who for 48 hours battered away through slush, ice, and open water, reached mainland here yesterday bearing the news

that 10 others, nine men and one woman, are slowly starving on Fox Island, 18 miles from here in Lake Michigan. It's funny, because the premise does sound like a Fox reality show. That's a good reality show. Fox Island could be a pretty good place to film. Yeah, drop people on Fox Island and see if they live.

They pitch, Fox Island is where you pitch a crazy reality show and Fox forces you to actually do it. Yeah. You ever, even at the hide-a-like reality shows, they were doing one where they were like pretending that they were murdering people. I don't. Like, it was like a murder mystery and I mean of course everyone knew they weren't actually but I'm saying they like they k-famed it the whole time. Right. Like these people were actually dying or

whatever. You can probably connect. Joe Millionaire or whatever that was. I was just gonna say. That guy who was secretly poor, which is gross. Or my big fat obnoxious fiance. I knew kind of the guy who was his best friend and I remember being like, well, this dude is fucking going to be famous forever. That's him made. As a result of their story, two army airplanes are driving throughout the sky, through the sky from suffrage airfield to carry food to the maroon party on Fox Island. They don't say why they're there.

San McGowan. It's just like- To go get them. But it's like a given that people are just starving on an island. Like, oh, people are starving on an island again. There's no, how did they get there? Well, yeah. I mean, people used to just go places and claim them and shit, steal back.

I mean, it's a little late for that. Yeah. But if that island had not yet been claimed, I could see some people being like, let's just go claim that island. Well, there was probably a lot of like people trying to do that. We're claiming things that had already been claimed and thinking, right. There's, you know, squatters, right. Eighteen miles out is I mean, that's a long way.

Man, I mean, those lakes, you know, I don't know if you guys know this. Said that there's something else. Well, this is this is this is one of the great ones. This isn't one of the 10,000. All right. You said this is sort of the big boy. This is not the one I think that never gives up or dead. It's a Superior, I believe. Gordon Lightfoot. Is that true? Oh, Gordon Lightfoot. Yeah. Breck of Edmund Fitzgerald. But I think that is the thing to actually say about Lake Superior. She never gives up or dead because it's so cold in there that bodies don't come

back. They sink all the way or some shit. Wouldn't it be great if Lake Superior was just waiting and then in like 30 years, it all of a sudden, one day just coughs up all the dead? Yeah, that would be a wild movie. Gordon Lightfoot's got a new song. Put that scene in like a climate change movie. Cause it's because of the temperature of the water. So if it gets warm enough,

all these corpses are just gonna float to the top of Lake Superior. So if it gets warm enough, all these corpses are just gonna float to the top of Lake Superior. That's, well, cause that's what they say about the permafrost. I think they're kind of preserved too, for the same reason. Cause they're so cold. Yeah, so that would, you could, yeah. Write that, somebody write that down.

Let's go pitch that to Fox Island. Yeah, whatever we make around. I really like the idea of the people of dead bodies frozen climate change unfreezes. Yeah, we now have zombie climate change. Yeah. Yeah. My foot. No, I do.

But just remember the lyrics. Yeah, it took me a minute. I always feel like Gordon Lightfoot is Sting's real name. Like, is his real name like Gordon something? I'm like, that is thing. I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,

I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, like, I'm like, I'm feel like Gordon Lightfoot is Sting's real name. Like, is his real name like Gordon something? I'm like, is that a Sting? Yareth, the pastime is brought to you by Turtle Beach. Oh, Dave. We're talking sweet, sweet sound. We're talking headsets.

I mean, but people do I don't know people still make shit at home and sell it sometimes right?

They'll say a farmers market or something, but probably not getting carried in like a main store The Girl Scout comp is pretty good But I do also think if this were today you'd find out like someone was putting poop in the cake You know, it'd be like there'd be a scandal underneath there. What is the ladies' work? They're fundraising for their work? For their church. It just says the Ladies Missionary Society of the First Baptist Church.

I've been to the Ladies Missionary Society once or twice. Gay conversion camps or something like that. Have you done? Beating the gay out of people straight cakes. Yeah, have you been to the ladies backdoor society? Oh Women a doggy prefer the ladies doggy style association. Yes. It's called dogma style. Yeah It's strange that that story is even in here because it's really a very non story It's just maybe a subtle plug for I don't know how to legally cake down there in America, Saram or ricas But I'm in eat my hometown's newspaper in like the fucking well No, they would reprint stories they had from this era before and the stories would be like

Mr. And Mrs. Lemuel Martin rode into town for three days the other day Like that type of shit like not just nothing. Yes. They you know, they visited by cousins from Ohio Yeah, there's a lot of that in these like that type of type of shit. I don't go I don't go over those because it's Too boring and not fun. Yeah, right. Yeah, but it's all, there's like always a big column. It's like, Frank and Gina are back for two days. My uncle, who is six, nine in England, lives in a very small, very small town. Oh, this is great.

And he- Like a fairy tale character, like I mean, tiny little English village. He's like, yes. Oh, I remember he would come to my tell you need another bowl of soup.

More soup, please, if you don't buy. So so he there was an article about how he his toes were popping out of his shoes. When I was a kid, this ages me, when I was a kid, he couldn't find shoes big enough for himself. So that was in the paper. And then he came to Wisconsin and we went to the Nike outlet store in Illinois somewhere

and he bought like four pairs of shoes that could fit him. And so when he came back, there was a follow-up about now how he found in America the ubiquity of size 18s or whatever he had. I know he isn't, but I'm just picturing like such a lumbering oaf of a like peasant with a fucking toy. Yeah, like covered in tomato seeds. Part of a peasant with a fucking toilet. Like covered in tomato seeds.

From walking through town. Yeah, right, yeah. You go back to hell where you've come from. I've come to eat your children. Sorry, I've bashed another roof with me full red. As he's just eating mud, there's some good mud over eating mud there's some good mud over here I've got a bit of mud over here my supper's done That's exactly our picture in your artwork

Well the governor's passed away I blame him he was walking near him earlier with his dead back. He's got his big foot. Good lord. Effort is launched to make America's Big Circus Center. Make America's great again. Nice. Big circus center. The Americas Chamber of Commerce and other organizations in Americas have sent invitations to masseurs Muggevin, Bowers and Gavin, proprietors of five large circuses, to make Americas permanent winter headquarters for one of their circuses. It's called bringing in business.

It's called Sea World. Now, circuses were real big at this time, I think. They were. And also, yes, absolute horror shows. Oh, yeah. It's like, you're fucking, what's it, Nightmare Alley or whatever it's called? Yes. Yeah. The Deltarune movie. Yeah. And they got like homeless dudes biting the heads off of chickens and shit like that. Like, yeah, the tigers emaci emaciated as hell and beat all the shit. Like it's rough times. This is like a mayor or someone going, hey, what if in the winter time,

we had the most horrible people here Yeah. entertaining us. Yes. And dude, the clowns back then, do you ever see pictures of clowns from the twenties? Terrifying. What? I refuse to believe that was ever entertaining to anyone,

especially children. Oh my God. Were they designed to horrify people? Why is this hanky got so much blood in it? Yeah. What's he doing? Well, it's like, I'll see that sometimes to be like driving through the middle of the country

and it'll be a sign for like, Wild Jax, Kansas City Safari. And you're like, there should not be a giraffe here. Right. And sometimes you think that like, you know, it's a different time. People just didn't give a fuck back then. And I guess a lot of people didn't. But then there's like there's that famous movie, you know, Freaks, right? It's called, you know, I'm talking about from like the 30s,

with like from around this time, basically. And it's about a sideshow act at a circus like a freak show But it like the point of the movie is that it's like fucked up or whatever like it so Well people were away. It was very woke woke Can already but woke Hollywood at it again 32 Yeah again in 1932. Oh, now you're going to ruin circuses. Yeah. Yeah. They are. Yeah. That is what the woke woke police have taken out circuses.

Oh, they took out freaks. Yeah. They had to go. Remember when you could revel in someone's disability comfortably. Then woke came. There was a lady. Now they got terms and ramps. There was a lady in this time who made a lot of money in the freak show

circuit by winning a contest for world's ugliest woman right and and what I immediately thought about with that is that someone came in second place for world's. It didn't even get the job. Went through all that. Yes, like that jam. Yeah, right. Yeah, exactly. Probably not shit. Yeah, probably nothing. Go back to starving in the street. Well, it's also I do always think that about like

remember when like Sea World, when Blackfish came out, it's like Sea World was getting dinged so hard and you're like, fuck yeah, they're done. And then now they're still there. They're still doing great. Yeah. I was just in San Diego. We didn't go to SeaWorld, but I mean, it's still there. Oh yeah.

It's still there. It's still doing their thing. It's torture. Is MarineWorld still there? I wonder. Marine Land in Canada? No, there's a Marine world in Vallejo, California. I don't know. Same deal. It was the same company. Yeah. Yeah. So cool. And

where are many killer whales in sea life? Vallejo. Absolutely. The natural area. Yeah, a couple hours inland. Yeah. Absolutely. No, it's great. So does this work? This circus plea? Well, let's see. For several years, these circuses have wintered at Prue, Illinois, and the winters there are long and severe. What? Boo, Prue! What? America says, Boo, Prue! Come to where it's warm. Come to where it's warm. On your list of where the winter circus is, is shocking.

Because we actually want to open one on Fox Island. Yeah. All the circuses do end up wintering in Florida. As they should. Yeah, right. Yeah, and they're the governor sometimes. It is believed that it's possible to persuade Mursers, Muggervin, Bowers, and Gavin to again come to Americus.

Oh, so they've been here before. Climbing conditions here are especially favorable to the wintering of menagerie animals. What's a menagerie animal? It's like the tigers and the elephants and all that stuff. Another term for the zoo, basically. Yeah, menagerie is a collection of... Is it specifically animals? You can only have... I think so, yeah. They can be made of glass, famously.

Yes, glass animals. With several suitable buildings already available on the Aggie College campus, where the Robinson shows wintered several years ago. Oh, so they've done this before. They're trying to get the circuses back. Sure, yeah, right. They wanted them to make it a permanent wintertime headquarters. Yeah. It's like a residency. Yeah. But if you're running a college, imagine coming in after the summer and being like, oh my God, this place is ruined. Would you want how much

of circus people and animals staying in your college? Circus people, Dave. No. Freaks. Sorry. He's all woke again. Winter time specifically, so it would be like over the holidays. You come back from Christmas break and there's just elephant shit everywhere. Yeah. In college.

Yeah, and just like a drunk ringmaster. Drunk clowns. Yeah, right, yeah. And well yeah, the sheets are smeared with clown makeup and blood. I mean, that would be upsetting for sure. Clean fine circus. I have never seen a cleaner or finer.

Clean fine circus, sure. Yep. Those are the best kind. One of the clowns just ate tiger poop. Things are fine here. I've never seen a cleaner or finer circus and their America's friends of whom there are many will be glad to know of The splendid success they are making many of us Hope it will again be possible to forsade our circus friends to winter

It doesn't say who that is a quote from but that's a quote from one of the people You don't need to attribute that with any of that was just kind of societal sentiment. I believe yeah, that's what everybody thinks Well, it's like Newsome's trying to bring like entertainment back here they're they're just kind of you know incentivizing the circus to just have the residency. You know what we should get our circus friends back why did they leave? They were sexually assaulting people and just murdering all over town. Anyway I'm thinking we can put them where the Aggies. Yeah. I think many of them were wanted for murder by the federal. Oh, stop. Enforcement agency.

Did you hear the clowns can now chew through bone? Yeah. Didn't that clown eat a whole guy? The whole chicken eats the whole. That clown eats the whole chicken. Yeah, the whole guy. Just watching the clown. It's not just the head anymore.

Eat the bones. That's the, yeah, that's the headliner of this circus not just not just the chickens head the entire whole raw chicken eat an entire chicken people just like eating corn dogs and shit watching this like why doesn't the clown blink I don't think he needs to, hon. This is just a little blurb, one of those little blurbs that happens. Things always could be worse. Wouldn't you have an awful time eating if you had no elbows?

Yeah, it makes you think. Manners, a nod to manners. So they had pot back then. Yeah, there was a magnet. Was that like Jack, Jack Handy's grandpa working at this fucking American? I thought, yeah, all right. Harder if you didn't have elbows.

Yeah, I guess. But what the fuck? Walk into a room and you're seeing all grandmas alone looking out the window and just says that as you slink out. Yeah, I'm now like actually thinking about it because it's elbows specifically. So you'd still have arms, right? You just couldn't, well, see, I'm thinking they're like this.

You can't, they're like straight all the time. They're straight. So they're sticks. They're stick at that point. You could not, you know, they're right. This guy is right. It would be very hard to eat without elbow. We'd have to feed each other.

It's like that, you'd have to team up all the time. That's right. This guy is right. It would be very hard to eat without elbow. We'd have to feed each other It's like yes. Yeah that you'd have to team up all the time. That's right You just put that you put the food in front of you and you eat it. I often do that anyway. I'm big Yeah, fuck. I like to yeah feed bag it Well, I saw you were drinking something from your magic bullet. It looked like you know, yes Lop that's a pretty a protein shake with some fiber in it. OK, because you get to picture him on the toilet now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Can you read the headline one more time of this one, David? What the one that I just did with the thing?

There was no headline. Oh, what was that? What was this? Can you read it again? Because I. Yeah. It's like it's manners based, doesn't it? Think. Well, there's no it's just one of those little tiny blurbs. Yeah, it's just like the those little tiny blurbs. Yeah, just like the paper Things always could be worse. Wouldn't you have an awful time eating if you had no elbows? Okay, I got enough I think it's just meant to like improve people's day

Depression is looming and we were living in a dust bowl and everything's awful I'm like, you know falling apart and you can't even get drunk about it. But yeah, you know, at least you don't have to eat without elbows and people are like, thanks for pointing that out. Archibald. It certainly, yeah, I think it does. It's look, it's, it's fun. It's, it's also, I think the way these papers are constructed, you just, how does this even happen? I think we should have more. You're high. I think that's what.

Guys, hi. This is the roaring 20s. This is the roaring 20s. What would be great would be to buy a fortune cookie company and make those things the fortunes. Just to be able to be in charge of what you're putting inside there. Just like shower thoughts like that?

Yeah, just stuff where people are like, I don't feel good. And then you open up a cookie and there's a little. No, no, you don't feel good after the cookie. Oh, after. OK, yeah, yeah. You know, you're just like, well, that made me feel weird and uncomfortable. Yeah. Yeah. Like Dunkin Donuts, there is donuts outside. You can still eat them.

I got one for you. Sort of this run just because it has to do with elbows. Sure. It's not exactly the same thing But you know the people that are born blind They don't see what you see with your eyes closed. They see what you see with your elbow What do you think about that? Perfect for my fortune cookie absolutely perfect. Yeah, exactly Is this an elbow writer? Yeah, this is an elbow based fortune cookie business. Absolutely perfect, yeah. It's exactly. Now, is this an elbow- Someone just booked Head Writer.

Is this an elbow-based fortune cookie? It just became one. Yeah. It just became one. Cause they kind of are elbow-y. Mm-hmm. You're right, they are. Elbow fortunes and everything.

You know, you can get tennis elbow from not playing tennis. How about that? Your lucky numbers. You ever think about that? So there's still lucky numbers. Yeah, but they could be weird. Every lucky number's 69. Judge rebukes, judges rebuke wet banqueters.

It has come to be so common for some of our best citizens to belittle and ridicule the prohibition amendment that it is not surprising if the new law by many is regarded as a joke." So people are laughing at the fact that you're dumb laws. Yeah. So is it, so this is saying prohibition is like it's brand new it's just happening? In 23 it's a couple years in so yeah but there's still people are still not taking it seriously. So wet banqueters are people that are having booze at their banquets or whatever? Yeah. Just like eschewing the law? Yeah right so

there's what they call people wet and dry is basically. Yeah, right. Okay. This was illustrated at the National Capitol when the Phi Delta Phi, a fraternity of own lawyers... Oh, man. Can you imagine? I mean, I know they're not saying it's a frat, but imagine being in a frat in 1923 with no alcohol. That energy in that room. Oh, come on.

Nothing but hazing. You know? Well, there's also hate crimes and stuff that could get up there. Yeah, no, you got in that room. Oh, come on. Nothing but hazing. You know? Well, there's also hate crimes and stuff they could get up to. Yeah, no, you had to do those. They could go and join little impromptu lynch mob type things. You'd have to leave in those. Pretty average. Yeah.

I think they were fine at the time. Yeah, that's still allowed. Well, yeah. Yep. But it is. But you're right, though. It is hard to do your sex crimes when you're sober, I think. That's just, what are you going to do? Well, actually play lacrosse the whole time on topic with this,

all the gay stuff you can still do. But it's not the same on the it is harder to sexually assault a pledge when you're not drunk. Yeah, actually, sometimes it depends on the person, but we'll figure it out. I'm just saying it's just tougher. But on topic to this headline you just read it seems like People everybody was just still drinking right for the most I know that it was like illegal But that's like it was you know, yes

Yeah, booze was everywhere and people were still getting drunk all the time that part while it's such a huge fucking, you know Misfire and yeah, yeah, right you could you could get drunk anytime you wanted still pretty much yeah that's awesome yeah see America it just great yeah might make you go blind because it was made in a radiator by a tool Billy or whatever work from actually I'm from but actually the best at that they were they were poisoning booze like the government was poisoning booze they killed like over 10,000 people. Well, you know, gotta do what you gotta do. Gotta teach them a lesson somehow.

We needed an RFK back then. That's how more poison in the booze. Yeah. So, Phi Delta Phi, a fraternity of young lawyers, sent out invitations to a dinner to be given in honor of Justice George Sutherland, the new Supreme Court judge. Some smart aleck, you know, that's... I know the title. Yeah, you're not supposed to actually say that

as a newspaper reporter. You're not supposed to call guys smart alecks, but some smart aleck prepared the invitation to be very funny. They spoke of the dry law in the usual flippant and maudlin way, and they indicated that liquor would flow freely at the banquet. Fuck yeah. So say.

But I mean, this is in D.C. It's a celebrated Supreme Court judge. I'm not surprised that they're all just like, you know. Yeah. Flaunting it publicly in front of everybody. Yeah. Yeah, we're still getting drunk. Give a fuck. Poison all those poor people's liquor. Don't forget to do that. Don't forget to poison the liquor for the regular people.

But, you know, we got a 17 Bordeaux here for dinner, by the way. Or champagne. At this banquet. I mean, basically they were just saying what was going to happen, but everyone's just mad that they put it out there. That's all it is. Well, it is. You're supposed to not say it out loud.

No. Yeah. The invitation, Alling, A-L-I-N-G, Alling? That must be a misprint, right? A line? Maybe a line. With a lot of other rubbish included in inquiry. Along with a lot of other rubbish.

Oh, along, here you go. Along with a lot of other, you're a good puzzle guy. Well, we got there together though I kind of lose the jar. I don't know. I think he just he got a jumble and he handled it really It wasn't a line because of what I said Yeah, exactly The invitation along with a lot of other rubbish included an inquiry as to whether the person who was invited believed in the 18th Amendment and the Volstead Law inquired if he had a cellar or could he get it

somewhere else and wanted to know how much he would bring to the banquet. Okay, so this guy said there's gonna be a lot of booze and then just went on and on. Yeah, to be specific. Judge Sutherland and Judge W.P. Stafford of the District of Columbia Supreme Court, who was scheduled as Toastmaster, took similar action. So much indignation was around. Toastmaster is laughing in the face of the wall. Yes, absolutely. I'll be Yeah, if you have a champagne daddy. So much inundation was aroused that the affair had to be called off.

I mean, the one problem is that they are judges and lawyers. So they're not that's like the one group. It's not probably not a bit. Yeah, I'm a bunch of mouthy broads streets, fucking ruin that for them. Yeah. Woke temperance, Levin, you know, the temperance society. It was always seemed like it was always a bunch of Christian ladies. Probably those cakes by the cake with the Piggly Wiggly.

That's probably what they were raising money for is to keep their husbands from getting drunk and discussedgusting. Having any fun. Honestly. Anyway. I don't know. Judges and lawyers are not only supposed to live a dignified life themselves and set an example. So comical. But they are bound by sacred oath to uphold the Constitution and the laws. It's so funny.

This episode would be trivial in itself, but it has importance because it reveals what a contempt for the dry laws exists and it shows to what extremes the enemies of decency will go if they are not rebuked. So it is hilarious. I mean, they're just fun cops. To go from that to Brett Kavanaugh is very funny. They're fun cops. That's what they were, fun cops.

It is explained that the references to liquor were intended only as a joke. Oh my God, you think we were really gonna be drinking? Hide the champagne, put it in your ass. Which is openly wet says that, oh sorry, but even the Washington Post, which is openly wet, that, oh, sorry, but even the Washington post, which is openly wet says that if any subject should be immune from ill judged humor, which is really scurrility, it is the law of the land. Oh, cause they're just saying, don't, don't joke about the law.

But okay. You said the Washington post is openly wet. So like publications were either, they like publicly were either pro or anti prohibitionhibition. Yeah. If you were against it. Yeah. A wet, a wet rag.

The Washington Post famous wet rag. Yeah. In the twenties. My new special will be called openly wet by the way. Just with a martini. Openly wet. That's what we should do is I'll get sober and we'll just do a dry wet podcast. You'll hate it.

Yeah. You will absolutely hate it. What we should start doing is start advertising at our shows that they're openly wet. Yes. The show's openly wet. Leaps into river to escape arrest. Classic move.

It's awesome already. Classic move. We don't have jurisdiction over the water. I hope there was a waterfall and he had to stand at it for a while and think, look back, you know. Last of the Mohican style. Yeah, and then launch himself off of it.

I will find you. Probably not. Probably tumbled over a shitty bridge. Probably wet. Wet at the time. Yeah, probably. This is Savannah. That is Savannah, which is one of the creepier towns I've ever been to. Yeah. Pretty, though. Pretty. Very pretty.

But it has it just has an aura of bad stuff happened here. Yeah, for sure. Charleston's like that too. They both like, they're like, they're, they're like, lovely, but also like, slavy, you know? Yeah, yes, that's right. Yeah. Which is unfortunate. All title for America. Yeah. Yeah. Lovely, but slavy. Yeah. An unidentified white man, and they also have to do that even at this time. Well, before you get into the story, what color was the guy? Right.

An unidentified white man today leaped from a liquor-laden automobile into the- Oh, wow. Yeah, this guy's having a- A bootlegger. Yeah, he's partying, yeah. No, he's running it. I mean, he might also be-

And partying, I hope he's partying open to I think you have to be a little drunk to jump out of a car Sure. Well, you know not if the not if the fuzz is on your tail. It's just it's a great image To get yourself to the point where you're like, well, I'm so in this shit. I got to jump in this water Oh, I wonder is maybe the car stalled or they had him cornered. They were like on the other side of the bridge chasing him. And then cops were on the other side of the bridge. He just grabs an arm full of booze.

What's he gonna do? You know? Yeah. He leaped from a liquor laden automobile into the Savannah river to escape revenue officers. And when lifted from the river and taken into a boat, again jumped into the water and disappeared under the wharf. That's what you do.

So they got him after the first time. Like they had a cop in a boat ready for him to jump in the water. But then when that boat cop got him out of the water, they weren't ready for him to then jump out of the boat into the water again. Like they didn't have a, should've had a second boat cop. Well that was part of the training going forward. Like like now guys, I know what you're thinking we got him out of the water He's in the boat in this case is closed. These guys will jump back in the water. Yeah, they're liquor fish

Officers found his automobile at the ferry preparing to cross into South Carolina at the ferry preparing to cross into South Carolina. J.C. Kennedy of Augusta, who was at the ferry, apparently waiting for his chauffeur and car, claimed the automobile and the liquor, and Kennedy was arrested. Well, that's interesting. He kind of fessed up. I don't know if that's the same guy.

No, it's a guy who was, oh no, the chauffeur is the guy who jumped into the water. This is the guy who said he was waiting for the car. That guy's gotta be pissed. This is the guy who's- I ordered an Uber liquor. This is the guy who calls the cops now and he's like, someone stole my weed. That's this guy.

This reminds me of back in the day when the South loved like a Gator, a Burt Reynolds moonshine runner and they didn't like cops and they all switched. I had a whole bit about that on my first album actually. Because it's like, bootleggers, I mean NASCAR is like one of the biggest sports in the South and it was founded by bootleggers running from the law and shit like Smokey in the bandit. It's like, you know The bandit was the one who hit for people Like the Dukes of Hazzard the whole show was just to you know Cousin fucking country boys running from the law all the time. What are they running from just you know boys

Just two good old boys running from just just different things Just yeah, it really was the show was the whole time. Just them running from the. Yeah. Just. Yeah. But there was more to it like they were moonshine runners, but they also had they shot dynamite on arrows as you would. But yeah, no redneck. Like when I grew up in my redneck town, like rednecks fucking hated cops. Like, hated them.

Rednecks and cops were like natural enemies. And for good reasons on both sides. But like, but now, you know, rednecks are all rocking the like thin blue line flag. Yeah. Bootleggers to bootlickers. Absolutely, that's it. Nailed it.

As things, as the worm- A rottenailed it. As things as the worm book. Yeah. As the worm turns in America, I think the rednecks are about to find out that the cops are once again not their friends. But we'll have less and it's time for the liberals to have a taste. Radio installed at Plains store. I was spelling Plains. Yeah, that's a good point.

PLA INS, not the other way around. That would be good. But yeah. Yeah, I heard it is PLA and they had it too. I think it might be what got McGowan. But that was like the 20s. I doubt they had plane stores yet. No, not yet. Not yet. I mean, well, they don't have plane stores now.

I don't know what I'm talking about. I don't realize how it's all a plane store. I don't know. Excuse me, they have a plane store around here. Just roll into a town today and be like, hey, where's your plane store? With a monocle. I'm looking for your plane shop.

But I still don't, knowing that it isn't, it's P-L-A-I-M, it's like. It's just a town, I think. I think it's a town. Like a general store? Yeah, I think it's a general store in a town, yeah. But, okay. Called the plan.

That's still just funny to me. It's called Planes Pharmacy. So, it's called Planes Pharmacy. All right, okay. Planes Pharmacy has recently installed a radio outfit by Snow Bowers. Bowers also has a radio outfit in his home each evening. No, Bowers is the name. Snow Bowers is the name.

Wow. Yeah. Yes. Well, they like snow bugs and Archibald and all that. Everybody had a funny name. But I like how Archibald is in there with Snow and Bugs. Archibald is pretty good too. It's a different kind of funny name, but it's still a very old-timey sounding name. It's like the wrestling promoter versus the wrestlers. Bugs, Snow.

And your name is Trey, right? Yes. Okay. I'm not the third, if that's what. Yeah. Oh, you're just making fun of just my name? That's fine. I think he's just coming at you.

I'm just saying that that's also not a normal name. Also not a what? Trey, don't listen. Dave, this is what he does. Trey's a real name. Trey's a real name. So is Gareth, even though it's just been changed. It's Gary.

Oh, all right, Trey. All right, Trey. All right, Trey. All right, Trey. I see how it is, Trey. Not in this country, Trey. All right, Trey. All right, Trey. All right, Trey. I see how it is, Trey. Not in this country it's not. Oh, here we go. All right, okay.

Okay. All right, I'm going to call my pop Archibald right now and give him a little, okay. Bowers also has a radio, I like how they don't call it a radio. They call it, Bowers also has a radio outfit in his home. I believe that's a suit made of antennas. Each evening, numbers visits the drugstore

to hear concerts given from distant states. That's what they used to do back then, yeah. Yeah, go to the drugstore to listen to the radio. Gather around the radio, listen to, Better. Texaco presents, fuck it. The Parkia Carcas Comedy Hour or whatever. Oh, better, I like it.

It was better. Well, we're going back to that now. It's like, yeah, kind of. Yeah, we'll all be gathered around an iPhone. Well, it's all just radio shit and it sponsors and all that stuff. It is kind of like circular. It's weird being in the business that we're in and then also being online and like scrolling through Instagram and be like, literally everything is a podcast now.

It's so weird to watch like three people just be like, well, that's the whole thing. You need to be care and you're just like, what literally? I saw one the other day and this, it was getting, it was getting passed around and doing numbers because people were like, can you believe this is a thing? It was like making a point about what you were just saying. Everything's a podcast, but still it was doing numbers. It was like three 13 year old boys talking about pizza. It's crazy. What do you like on Oh my god. It's like a cheese

I'm not a I don't know pepper. I don't really do pepperonis. Oh, you know, I know I don't I'm just regular cheese It's like yeah cheese is great cheese And that's like literally the whole thing and they're middle schoolers I'm middle schoolers and they're crushing and I saw the other one I saw was them talking about oatmeal. Yeah Yeah, and it's really like it is so fucked up because you know we look I remember like seeing like younger people in my family be like wow they're growing up with phones it's so weird it's like that was weird for sure. Growing up where you're like I need to feed the algorithm my whole existence

yeah way fucking weird. Yes, way weirder. All right, last one. This is in two parts. Okay. Story of Cuthbert's record dance a hoax. We have some fools here, but not one big enough to dance 116 hours, editor J.J. Howell of the Cuthbert. This is the Cory Booker of the Two Step. Yep. Cory, editor J.J. Howell of the Cuthbert Leader writes the Macron Telegraph. So it's an editor writing another paper. It's an editor of one paper writing another paper.

Suggesting that this dance was fraudulent. Bullshit. Yes. Fake dance. An Atlanta paper. He had waxed legs under his pants. An Atlanta paper. He was in a chair.

An Atlanta paper carried a story Sunday to the effect that a Cuthbert couple had danced 116 hours and some odd minutes when an irate brother of the dancing lady broke up the show by carrying away his sister. Okay. I think we all are on the brother side. I mean, imagine your sister being out there dancing that long. That's entirely too long. Yeah. She got to get back to scrubbing the goddamn floors. Yeah, that's exactly probably why you're off. What do you think you are, the man?

I haven't eaten in 116 hours. Yeah. They're just covered in piss and shit. I'm starving. It's been five days. Editor Howell says, news editor Telegraph, McCrawn, Georgia, dear sir. They didn't have to put in, they already said who it was to. They didn't have to put in the.

I like it. Dear sir, I find that a news story has been sent an Atlanta paper regarding someone here breaking their dance endurance record. There is no foundation for it. It is simply a joke that has been put over the newspapers. We have some fools here, but not one big enough to dance 116 hours without stopping.

I think. I bet you do. Bullshit in 1923 when there's no booze. Yeah, yeah, people would totally do that. Very possible. And then he ends it by saying, I think yours, J.J. Howell. So he's not really sure, but he's pretty sure.

So I don't get it, he's just like, is this just a dude who just heard this story? He's like, that is entirely too long for a person to dance. Yes. I do declare it is not within the realm of possibility. I'm a dance-im-atician. And then they publish it and they're like, I don't know, he might be right. This guy's right. Like, there's no, like, I don't know, asking no evidence guy.

You can't like talk to the people involved or anything. Now, while a man could potentially pull this off, the woman is where the story falls apart. She would obviously faint within a matter of hours as they all want to do in this particular era. A woman would die after 40 hours. Yes, she would barely have the vapors within 32 or less. I'm suggesting that the woman this man was dancing with was also a man, making the entire

dance null and void. But people did dance that long, I think. 116 hours? That's a long time. I looked into dance- Dave, that's over three days. I looked into dance contests once and I was going to do- Even more, I think. It's almost three and a half day

I was gonna do a doll about it But they did go like people literally got hurt because they would dance they would be up so long Well, that's why I like the herd for what like to because you'd win money because they were desperate for money If you can imagine that America that's such a it's funny to make dancing like gladiatorial like that If you can imagine that in America. That's such a it's funny to make dancing like gladiatorial like that. People are falling out and breaking their legs and shit. It's like you want to pay your daughter's medical bills with them fucking dance. You know, it's funny.

Worthless sack of shit. It is country ain't never changed. And I was just going to say, it's like it's funny to picture that and be like, that's crazy. And then also remember the videos of like the slap fighting shit you see now and be like, yeah, I saw a thing the other day. It's like, you remember that meme that was huge for awhile of like success kid, the little like toddler. Yeah. Yes. It looks like that. Yeah.

I saw a thing the other day. It said success kid, uh, made enough money off of his internet popularity to pay for his father's dialysis or something like, or like cancer. And they're like celebrating it. It's like, that's fucked up. It's fucked up. It's fucked up. But yeah, so. Our sort of feel good dystopian porn is so amazing

when it's like, students help raise enough money for teachers' cancer treatment. And you're like, this is not good news. No, it's bad news. It's horrible. This reminds me of the movie Hands on a Hard Body, have guys ever saw I'm not I know what's the difference? It's it's a to win it to win a Toyota truck a dealership would do a contest where you would put your hand on The car and the last person standing would win the car. I mean, so people would just sit there for days

I've heard the best the best part in hands on there for days. I've heard of that. Well, the best part in Hands on a Hard Body is this one guy who's like, his whole thing is he's like, my plan is to just load up on junk food now so I don't have to eat for the whole cup. So he eats like Twix's and burritos and he crashes so hard. No shit. So this is a documentary you guys are talking about?
