Starting point is 00:01:42 He got fucking my girl at his own home. Holy shit. He was allergic to bees. Someone give him his glasses. He can't see without his glasses. A Texas man has died after being attacked by a swarm of bees. That has to be on the list of worst fucking ways to go. Because it's almost like that's like the definition of death by a thousand cuts other than you know dying by a thousand cuts in this case it's you know bee stings but it's got to be kind of the same basic principle right when they say well that's a death by a thousand cuts well I imagine getting attacked by a swarm of bees does not feel great and you can't get away from it like oh my god this is some final destination shit right with this new final destination God, this is some Final Destination shit. Right with this new Final Destination coming out, this is what we're doing. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:02:29 Also, I don't know if this was real, speaking of before I get back into the story, I don't know if this was true or not, but I saw a picture online of a giant, like a truck, like full of long, you know, like logs, like big ass logs. And on the truck, it had banners for the new Final Destination movie. And if so, that is an excellent, excellent piece of marketing by the Final Destination people because like out of all the deaths in these Final Destination movies and real talk, I don't remember many of them. I don't remember any of them actually past the second
Starting point is 00:03:03 one. Actually, the third was the third one where someone died on a roller coaster. What are we on like five now? So I couldn't tell you what happened. I could not tell you the plot or anything that happened in Final Destination like three or four or Final Destinations or whatever. I can tell you basically what I can tell you the plot and what went down in the first one I can't really tell you how the second one ended But I can tell you some of the deaths right like in the first final destination Like he's supposed to get on the plane the plane blows up everybody We got you off the plane the plane ends up crashing whatever doesn't some guy like accidentally get hanged in a bathroom because he slips on the water and then like like the
Starting point is 00:03:43 toothpaste or the tooth or like something hangs him not the toothpaste but like like dental floss or some shit it was that there oh the one that stands out the most is the guy getting taken out by the bus i think that was cur smith that got taken out by the bus like i'm just gonna go stand out in the middle of the road then bam gets taken was it him or was it was Stifler? Was Stifler in Final Destination? I know that Ali Larder was. Showing. And so was Devon Sawa. May he rest in power. Wait a minute, is Devon Sawa dead? Hold on a second. So many questions need to be answered, but before we can get to anything, let me make sure Devon Sawa is alive or dead. Devon Sawa is... Oh, he's alive. Who is the guy that was kind of like
Starting point is 00:04:26 Devonsawa that died? Devonsawa's alive? Oh, dude. I just killed Devonsawa and I am sorry, bro. Devonsawa is in fact alive. But wasn't there someone that's in that same era that died shit okay guys Devin Sawa is very much alive and he's and he's married to someone named Donnie sahanovich and I am sorry he is alive don't rest in power King don't look into the light dog but yeah so anyway and then then Final Destination, there was, I wanna say like the other one that stood out was the logs falling off of the truck at the beginning of the second one.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Then I couldn't tell you anything else that happened in the second one. As it turns out, I don't know much about Final Destination, but anywho, there's a new Final Destination out. And I would think that a guy like getting attacked by bees and dying has to be some Final Destination-y shit, or some Thomas J type shit. Anyway, let's play some commercials.

Starting point is 00:06:32 All right, we continue. Stephen William Daniel of Cisco died April 27th in Eastland, Texas, about 130 miles southwest of Dallas, according to an incident report obtained by the USA Today. Eastland police, the department officers responding to a call about a crashed vehicle, found Daniel swarmed by bees. The agency said in a news release, officers took Daniel out of his truck, put him in a police car until an ambulance could arrive and take him to a hospital. During the ambulance ride, Daniel stopped breathing, became unresponsive and died. He was 66. He was not allergic to bees. This is not a Thomas J. He died later that evening of circulator collapse, circulator, circulator collapse
Starting point is 00:07:18 from the bee stings according to the incident report. Circulatory collapse or circulatory shock occurs when the body circulation system is compromised, resulting in inadequate blood flow to the incident report, circulatory collapse or circulatory shock occurs when the body's circulation system is compromised, resulting in inadequate blood flow to the body's vital organs. Sid Daniel, Daniel's wife, told television station KTAB that her husband had been mowing a property they owned in Eastland when he encountered the bees. Over the seven years the couple owned the property, he had never had an issue with bees, his wife said. Sid described her late husband as funny and quiet and someone who believed in safety first.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Okay. Now, like, I don't know where this is about to go, but I believe this happened for a reason and I think it's to warn the rest of us," said Toad the local news station. And if it helps one person or one kid or people at a birthday party, then he helped, he made a difference. Huh? I don't like, I appreciate that people want to believe things happen for a reason. And maybe to a degree, certain things do happen for a reason. I'm not dismissing that. Like, it's quite possible that there is a bigger picture and everything kind of goes and like you want to believe that you
Starting point is 00:08:30 want to believe that certain things happen because of fate and certain things happen because there's a higher power. I don't know what kind of warning this is going to you know shoot off to anybody. Like I like and look this lady's heartbroken her husband died in one of the most bizarre ways you can die. Like if you come up with like bizarre ways to die, getting stung by a shit ton of bees is probably like on the list of the absolute worst. Like when people
Starting point is 00:09:00 talk about how to die, like most people are like you know what, let me die in my sleep peaceful, right? I'd say if you interviewed people and you asked them how would you want to die, okay, and you could go, you know what, in my sleep. I don't know if there's a survey or a study that's been conducted. Now I'm going to Google this. Survey about how people want to die. That is very, very morbid and I'm aware of that Google. Survey of how people want to want to die. God, this is going to end up having like a, I'm
Starting point is 00:09:43 going to have like a goddamn FBI investigation on me now. Public opinion polls about suicide and suicide prevention. Well, that's a little too fucking dark. That's not what I'm looking for. I just want to know if you asked people if you had to pick a way to die, how would you die? I would guess, look, I did my own survey in my mind and I'm going to tell you that 90% of people would rather just die in their sleep if not more. Other people would like to die like in a heroic way like oh I rescued some kids from a fucking burning building. The problem is you're going to suffocate or burn to death. Nobody wants to suffocate. That's a horrible way to die and nobody wants to burn to death. I asked Freddy that is a shitty fucking way to die. Nobody wants that.
Starting point is 00:10:23 burn to death. That's a, I mean ask Freddy, that is a shitty fucking way to die. Nobody wants that. Like do you, like, do you want to get shot? Like, like, they're like, like, if you can say you can get eaten by a dinosaur, like, hey, that's kind of a cool story. But what, like, like, where, like, no one's, are they going to know? What if you got eaten, like, like, you got eaten whole by a dinosaur? If you had gotten eaten whole by a dinosaur in that scenario and no one knows you're inside the dinosaur, then no one knows you got eaten by a dinosaur. If you had gotten eaten whole by a dinosaur in that scenario and no one knows you're inside the dinosaur, then no one knows you got eaten by a dinosaur. Therefore, the cool part about getting eaten by a dinosaur, no one knows.
Starting point is 00:10:54 And you don't want to be a guy that gets eaten by a shark because then you ruin the beach for everybody. Then they might have to close it down or some shit. You don't want to be the reason why people can't have fun at the beach. So you don't want to get eaten by a shark. I think we can all agree. If you can pick a way to die, you're asleep. Whatever, you're watching your favorite stories, you doze off to sleep and then boom, you're dead. That said, it's got to be a fucked up scenario for the person sleeping next to you, assuming someone is sleeping next to you. And I'd imagine that's happened obviously millions of times in life. Where you go to sleep, wife's trying
Starting point is 00:11:22 to wake you up, hello honey, honey and then you're dead. Gotta be a horrible situation. But anyway back to the bees. So like that's even worse because the guy just got like attacked by these bees and then dies on the way to the hospital. Oh god that is fucking terrible and that's like it's got to be tough because you can't stop it. Like you could run, you could try to like do whatever. These like, and why are they so goddamn honry? Like what pissed them off? Like what set these bees off? Maybe the warning she's talking about is that the bees are super pissed off about the way we're treating each other. Are these biblical bees? Did like God send these bees to send a message? Like get your fucking shit together you awful fucking people. Let's fucking go.
Starting point is 00:12:08 I don't know if that happened to either. But what what is the message that's what I'm trying to figure out she says this happened for a reason and I think it's to warn the rest of us like hey don't fuck with bees like Sid I'm sorry your husband's dead we're fully aware to not fuck with bees except for that little shit Thomas J who couldn't stop fucking with the bees. Now, I guess here's a fair question. My girl, did Thomas J know he was allergic to bees or did he not? This took place in like the 70s, right? Or like the 60s to the 70s.
Starting point is 00:12:38 So did people give a shit about what you were allergic to in the 60s and 70s? So like, did he know? Because if he knew, like here's a wrinkle in the my girl story here. Perhaps Thomas Jay was depressed and he knew he was allergic to bees so he kept fucking with those bees because he knew if he got stung by those fucking bees he'd die. But he'd also heard that if he did harm to himself he wouldn't go to
Starting point is 00:13:01 heaven and people were very religious in the 60s still. Again, just a little out there thing, just throwing that out there, that is part of my, that is a my girl fan theory that I'm going to put on a subreddit about my girl at some point. But if he knew he was allergic to it, like it's not like it was something he was addicted to, it's like, well, I'm allergic to meth, but I keep doing it because I love it. It's like they're bees. Like, you could very easily just go like, you know what, I'm not going to fuck with these bees now. So I'm going to assume that he didn't know that he was allergic to bees.
Starting point is 00:13:36 After the fact, can they determine that you're allergic to bees? I guess they could do an autopsy and be like he went into blank shock or whatever. I don't know. Now I'm deep into this shit and I can't get out. And look how easy that fucking Veda Sultanfuss got over her buddy whenever the fucking second my girl came out and she's like trying to hook up with that dude that might be her fucking cousin step cousin or whatever. You guys remember my girl too? No you don't. Nobody does. It sucked. She like goes to California in search of like shit about her mom who is dead when she's got a perfectly good step mom at home and Jamie Lee Curtis but instead she's got to go out and like take it to the streets of Los Angeles
Starting point is 00:14:17 and be like hey I need to find out some more details about my mom. So she's going around then I think she gets I forgot what the story was like Like if I want to say like it was like her step cousin. Now I gotta know that one kid that was also in a very underappreciated film called The Last Action Hero. I forgot that kid's name. But let's see my girl to electric boogaloo. What was that kid's name that was in this damn movie? Let's see. This movie was dreadful by the way. The second My Girl dreadful and it didn't need to happen. They were like, hey we made a shit ton of money on this
Starting point is 00:14:54 first My Girl movie and everybody loved it and it was sad. Thomas J was allergic to bees and he couldn't see without his fucking glasses and we all remembered it was adorable. But then we're like, nope, we got to put homegirl Anna Klumsky in this movie now as a teenager that nobody wants. So Veda is matured from 11 year old hypochondriac in 1972 to a more serious teenager, blah, blah, blah. Now, who does he play in this movie? What is this kid? Austin O'Brien, the son of Rose Zygmunt and Veda's love interest. So, okay, so I think Richard Mazur, who plays the brother of Dan Aykroyd in this movie, is married to this
Starting point is 00:15:36 chick. So, if Richard Mazur is her uncle, okay, help me out here. I'm going on a My Girl 2 deep dive because I have no life. So Dan Aykroyd is the father of Veda Saltenfuss. The dad is Harry Saltenfuss who runs the fucking funeral home. So that's Dan Aykroyd. Veda goes to LA to find out more information about her dead mom. There she encounters the family of, okay, okay, hold tight. Okay, okay, okay, okay. So Christine Ebersole plays Rose Zygman, Phil's girlfriend who runs the auto shop he works at. So Phil, who is the biological uncle of Veda, So Phil, who is the biological uncle of Veda, is dating a chick named Rose Zygmunt whose kid is Nick Zygmunt. So the worst case scenario if a hookup ever went down between Veda Saltenfuss and Nick Zygmunt is that Phil Saltenfuss, biological
Starting point is 00:16:44 uncle, would be married to her, thus it would become like a step-aunt situation and that would make Austin O'Brien, aka Nick Zygman, a step-cousin? So there's no blood. Fuck away. Alright, anyway, we will get into more stuff after this.
