Coming up on TMS, Uncle Ben killed Batman's parents.
Good for Hummy.
I didn't expect that.
What kind of sick cucumber snuff film is this?
How do you make baby pants?
Darts in your cornhole.
Tossing your tortillas.
I'm getting too old for this space travel.
Is it too early for a funny, fresh yet, fresh, fish?
It's better than I could have hope.
Uh, where the hell am I?
German is a big language.
Use my baldness to my advantage.
I would gladly throw that at your head.
I don't like blowing peas.
Get the Mucinex monkey off my back.
It's not magic, Bobby. It's an illusion.
Nerling knobs with Bill.
Well-rendered fish sandwiches and more on this episode of the morning stream.
Part of the trick to entertaining unexpected guests is keeping on hand certain generally
useful foods. One of these is cheese of an easy melting type, which Sally is going to use as a
base for the rare bit.
I don't care. This is the morning stream.
Good morning and welcome back to TMS. It's the morning stream for June 14th, 2022. I'm Scott Johnson with Brian Ibitt. Hi.
Hello. Hello there. We're starting a little late today. It's a freaking internet God's fault, but we got it worked out. Everything's fine now.
Yeah, exactly. It's all fine now. And just as just as the show started, I got the results from my latest DAL-E entry.
Oh, is it, dude, it puts this anywhere, I want to see it.
I will put it somewhere.
My search subject was Baby Spice dressed as a cucumber.
Perfect.
And I'll copy and paste it into our Discord, and you can share it with...
Excellent.
Boy.
I'll probably also, I'll probably also put this on Twitter because, boy, howdy.
Oh, geez.
Okay, this is a good one.
Here, chat, check it out.
This is...
This is gnarly.
There's some nightmare fuel going on here.
Yep.
Oh, yeah.
That's just what this thing's good at.
If you're at home listening, I can only describe this as horrifying.
I don't think any of these are baby spice, first of all.
No, the one at the bottom center kind of looks like her.
Maybe, yeah.
A little bit.
The one on the baby to the right is just a baby.
It's just a baby, yeah, dressed as a good thing.
But I think there's like a, I can't tell down by that baby's hand is maybe like a pepper,
which is maybe the spice thing getting thrown in there.
Oh, could be.
That's an interesting thought.
I didn't even think about that.
That it's like, oh, now, how do I figure, how do I get the word spice in here?
Exactly.
I think one of these might be Gwen Stefani.
Oh, like the center square here, or even bottom left.
Or top right.
Top right could be Gwen Stefani.
Oh, that could be, yeah.
The one in the center top, that's, I hate that.
That is Silence of the Lambs is what we're looking at right there.
That's how Hannibal Lecter got out of that little jail cell inside the high school auditorium
where he was being held.
Yeah, there's something about the lighting there.
Just don't like it.
Yeah, it's like the snuff film where somebody kills a cucumber.
If you guys, you guys haven't messed with this tool, it's really weird.
It's really freaking weird.
I can't wait to see what the new one does because the new one's supposed to be insane.
But it's all the rage right now.
Everybody's making these stupid things.
And what are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
It's just so bizarre.
Hey, Scott, how you doing, man?
I'm fine.
I'm good.
You sound great.
You sound like you're just fully recovered.
what you sound like i'm i'm uh this is the first morning i have not taken mucinex in a whole week
yeah um so i'm a little a little congested like a little bit on the side like eh but not enough
to where i felt like i wanted to take um mucinex to get through to get me through i'm i'm going cold
turkey scat i'm kicking the muconix habit oh my gosh i'm getting this mucinex monkey off
my back finally after you're going to get the mucinex ds or whatever that's right you
Yes.
I don't, I don't, probably nothing will happen.
You'll probably just fine, is my guess.
Yeah, I'm probably, and I'd say I'm maybe at, listen, if my normal living state is 100%, then I feel
like I'm probably, I'm probably at 85.
That's pretty good.
Pretty darn close, getting up there.
I did get on on the bike yesterday, did a five-mile ride just to get myself back.
Yeah.
So you're first since the, since you were down?
First since start, first in a week, or first, yeah, first since Tuesday last week.
Damn.
um today uh is puzzle pint day oh so i'm going to ride down to the brewery that is next door to
casa benita ah is it open yet they redone the thing no still working on it there still but they're
working on you can see like stuff going on when you go by there and there's like i never go by there
so i don't know but i will know tonight i'll be able to to tell you know i shouldn't be able to tell
because the outside should remain untouched if if you know if everybody has their way
It'll still be a weird pink, weird pink building in the middle of the city that, you know, that seems so freaking out of place that it shouldn't, it's a thing that should not be.
It just seems like the South Park guys, they would want, they would be interested in keeping that alive, right?
I think so, yeah.
They would absolutely maintain the integrity of the exterior while improving the, really just the food of the interior.
Everything else about the interior, I think, also needs to be maintained.
Right. It's just the food.
The Acapulco cliff divers, Black Bart's Cave.
Sure. All that stuff, no one's complaining about that.
It's the food. Fix the food.
Fix the food.
Yeah.
Have some actual decent food on your menu.
How about that?
Yeah.
Except your soap of Piaz, which you always tell me you're good there.
Oh, they're fantastic.
Yeah.
Dude, what a day to not have Stephen Schleiker this morning.
Yeah.
We got the news that Lady Gaga is in early talks to play Harley Quinn.
Oh, this is so weird.
in The Joker sequel, which will be a musical.
Yeah, is that real?
Someone's yanking my chode on that, right?
It can't be real.
The Hollywood Reporter is the one that's reporting this.
You know, if this was anybody else.
Cannot get my head around this?
They must be like in his head and he's weird and he's having a dream and the dream she's involved and it's a musical in his dream or something.
It can't be.
I love this idea, though.
All right, Gagas, Harley Quinn.
And it's a musical.
I mean, what else?
What else do you want?
What else can you get?
So obviously, we're now, like, it's now fully, yeah, we're outside the regular DC extended universe.
We kind of knew that, right, since it's a different actor playing Joker and that sort of thing.
Yeah, so I assume, yeah, you're not going to bring Margot Robbie over for this.
She'd do something weird and, you know.
Well, plus we see at the end of Joker, spoiler alert, at the end of Joker, we do see the end of Joker, we do see the,
altercation in the alley behind the theater and uh oh which means that this takes
place oh you have you not seen joker i've seen joker but i don't remember this part
about the alleyway what it would remind me yeah i don't remember yeah i don't remember you
see the wayne's getting accosted at the end of uh joker but is he there doing it no
no joker is in a taxi cab okay or in a police car or something like uh so they're not
they're not buying they're not doing the just jack nilkinson timeline where he's the
guy who shot him in the in the thing because i always hated that because it was never it was never
in the comics it was never a thing where the joker shot batman's parents no no no it absolutely yeah
exactly it's like all of a sudden saying hey the rhino killed spider man's uncle ben and uh and that's
why those two have a have a thing yeah my memory of joker the movie is slow descent to madness
shoots robert de nero in the face uh dances around on the street for a while those are my memories
oh and the steps down the staircase yeah it goes down the staircase dancing
wearing kind of a purple thing.
I really liked it, but I don't remember all the details, I guess.
I remember I only saw the movie once.
Really, really enjoyed it.
I don't know why I haven't watched it a second time, but I really, really enjoy it.
See, that's what I should do.
I should watch it again.
And then I would remember, oh, right, there's a scene at the end where we see the alleyway business.
Yeah, I mean, there's this whole clown buddies that he has to deal with.
And the little person clown friend of his is like his only friend.
in the world that he kind of
Yeah
It's good stuff though
I'm you know
Hold on Dice Tomato
There was no
There was no retcon
That Sandman killed Uncle Ben
Are you talking about
You're talking about in the
Not in the Spider-Man movies
The Sam Ramey movies are you
Wasn't there something
There was some connection that
Wait that has killed Batman's parents
No no no no they killed Uncle Ben
Oh Uncle Ben
Oh hold on
why does that sound familiar
yeah why is that familiar it was spider man three yeah okay
oh spider man three
that was that was sandman with the mask
uh that shot uncle ben oh right
that sucks
yeah that sucks because it wasn't
it was like a goofy rooster haired looking kid
like uh you know it's not even close
yeah it's not even in the same
you did an out of universe thing in your universe sam ramy
what are you doing yeah
well three what an embarrassment three
really was an embarrassment. That's what they needed to have with the No Way Home was Toby McGuire saying, oh, thank God I'm in your universe because holy crap, my universe went to shit.
That 70 show kid. Started out with so much promise.
Worked out well until, I mean, I guess they kept the best parts, the Doc Ock from 2, and you got your, I like Sandman as a character. He was the best thing of three, except for the part where he shot Uncle Ben.
Yeah, which apparently a lot of us had blocked out.
forgot because it's dumb and terrible.
So I forgot.
Well, anyway.
Anyway.
Hey, I did a fun thing yesterday.
So I've been telling you about this V-Rising game, the vampire survival game.
It's really fun and totally scratches about 13 inches I have in gaming.
But the best part was yesterday.
I'd forgotten we did this for our core patrons.
We opened it up so that they could be on our server.
And they all have to have this like secret.
password and all that. Anyway, so we're on there playing. And I had to take down this guy called
Nicholas the haunted or the undaunted or the whatever. He's just a huge douche who's down in this
graveyard that is really hard to kill. And I need to kill him because I need to get this
recipe for a thing I don't have. And he's the only way I can get it. So I go down there and I go like,
I don't know, seven tries dead. Dead, dead, dead, dead. Run, corpse run, get my stuff. Dead, dead,
dead, keep dying. It just sucks. So I'm finally like, wait, we have other people on here.
I'm going to, like, do kind of an MMO thing where you're wanting to do, like, a world boss or something?
I'm going to say, hey, anyone want to help me take on Nicholas the butthole?
Yeah, you're kidding.
Nicholas the douchebag, and they all said, sure.
And Tesserit was one.
I can't remember the other guy's names.
Anyway, these guys all flocked down there, took the guy down, no problem.
Nice.
Sucked all his V-blood.
You crowd-sourced your boss.
That's right, damn it.
And it was great.
I just love that game, V-rising rocks with listeners even better.
It's very good.
we were talking about Star Wars the other day
and somebody had a reply about this
okay uh the person that wrote in's name is Luke
and he says dear Sith and Bacta
I like that okay good
pretty good uh I've heard Scott mentioned this a couple of times
recently Rogue 1 is the only new Star Wars movie
that tried anything new and that thought kills me
keep in mind that I also like Rogue 1 as you read the following
all right here we go
The Last Jedi tried all kinds of things
new to Star Wars writers
and director Ryan Johnson tried quote or here's your list supposing that the Jedi order was an outright failure and Luke is driving the anti-Jedai train okay sure what if the universe doesn't revolve around the Skywalker's and the Jedi maybe we should try new things and not rely on our elders and maybe Kylo the bad guy has some really good ideas is number three does he really though
it's a weird I like the way it's phrased because it sounds like you know
maybe maybe the
opponent isn't all bad
maybe they've got some really good ideas
yeah maybe you know
Hitler has some maybe there's something to
this Thanos thing yeah this 50%
thing maybe maybe Hitler had a couple
of bright ideas you know
like you could take that anywhere I suppose
right exactly so but yeah I do
agree at that point he says the reason you don't
remember any of these is because JJ took over the
episode nine and undid all the amazing potential
that Johnson had fostered the last Jedi
much like Empire Strikes Back was one an awesome movie
two laid down some track that could have made for an incredible third movie.
But sad trombone, episode nine starts with the dead speak and the palpatine is back and Ray is
Skywalker and same old story and is rightfully forgotten by most.
Overall, it's a bummer, but I'll stick up for The Last Jedi any day.
Love the show though. Luke.
All right, Luke, here's where I will agree with you.
It did have a different tone.
I didn't, and there was a lot of hate for it at the time, but I liked Last Jedi.
Um, my only, the only thing I really liked about it though, honestly, at the end of the day was that cool planet of like red salt. I thought that was cool. Yeah. Yeah. That's it. I don't have a lot of love for that for the new trilogy. It's fine. It plays out. It's a thing. You can see it. You have a fun time at the theater. Woo-hoo. Yip-you-hoo. Um, I like Ray as a character. Like, there's things I like about it, but it just doesn't scratch my, my itches at all. I like the, I like the, I like the rogue.
one just that's how it is and solo may as well be a weird like christmas special i can't get into
that very much i thought solo was kind of bad yeah i need you know what maybe i need to see solo again
i i thought for an action movie it was fun and the uh the danny glover casting is landau brilliant
but i think i need to see i need that's really all i remember about it and that damn uh how many of
you are flying uh just me yeah what's your last name so solo gosh dang it dude
I can go back in time.
There's some things,
some character origins that you don't need to explain.
No.
You don't need to...
Even if you did, why is I have to be asked?
I'm sorry, Donald Glover.
I'm getting too old for this shit, T.P. Travis.
What did you say?
I said dating Glover.
Oh, Danny Glover.
I should have gotten it from the tool for this show.
That's funny.
Oh, is it like Boba? Boba?
Boba? Not like Boba Fett?
Boba Fett?
Anyway, solo sucked.
I don't care Benjamin.
what you say. Let's fight.
Yes, I meant
I'll love her. It was inspired casting, but
it's just wasted in a movie
that's just kind of, I don't know.
It had problems. Problems.
Problems were had.
All right, Brian, we're going to do something fun.
Yeah, okay. All right.
I'm up for fun. I'm up for fun. Let's have some fun.
Look at this. Here. Wayne, I've got to play
the damn thing for it. Here we go.
Take this. It's for you.
It's food. Okay.
Right here, in our hands,
is a bag of funny, fresh, chip-fresh.
Funny-frish.
Funny-frish chip-fresh.
With an ungarnish at the bottom.
I don't know what that means.
I can tell these are chips,
and I can tell that there's a pepper on there.
And these were sent to us by a listener.
Let's see.
Does this come with German?
Does my Google translate come with German free?
It does come with German free.
I assume so.
Yeah.
That's a big language.
I've got to support that one.
It's a big language.
Yeah, that's one they should probably do.
Now, we're to Gombin Gabbin.
Funny Fresh is, uh, translates in English to funny fresh.
Okay, great.
So that means chips is, uh, crispy fresh.
Yeah.
Or chip, chips fresh.
Yeah.
And then the word Ungadish is Hungarian.
So it is just Hungarian-flavored.
Uh, best potatoes, pure sunflower oil, unique and spice recipes.
It looks like it's both
Maybe these are Hungarian
It's German and Hungarian
All the way through on the back
There's two different ingredient lists
One is German, one is I think Hungarian
Ingredients
Patatas
Patatas fritas
Is Spanish
Oh is that Spanish
Ingredients
Patatas
Oh yeah
Although Papas
Popas is
Let's see what language that is
It's not Hungarian
That I can tell you
Well I am going to read these
I'm going to read these ingredients in German.
Are you ready?
Here we go.
Potatas fritas.
What is that?
Yeah.
Zutaten, cartofine, sunen, bloom, all, uma, spigatz.
Havirkeststst, paprika-pulver, sukevourver, caibouche, le-polver, farbloughstaff,
uh, rocha Roma, gwertsen-stacht.
and unter scroods and marsapar
Weckt
There you go
Nice, excellent
Yep, I did a good job
So it's translating
It's not telling me what language
I've got detect language
And it's not saying
What language
It is
Well then we shouldn't feel nervous about eating these at all
Then I'm sure that they're 100% okay
And so they came actually
I think via
Out of Vegas somewhere
Who's the listener?
Do we have their name?
Oh, yes, Dominic.
Dominic.
Dominic, giving you credit for this here, bud.
All right, here we go.
All right.
Let's take a smell.
Oh, they smell fine.
It smells like barbecue chips, basically.
Yeah.
This will probably taste like goulash, is my guess.
Let's give it a shot.
There's a pepper on there.
I assume they're meant to be spicy, maybe?
No.
Because it's like a bell pepper.
All right, let's see.
Oh, these are good.
they're good but um i like them you like them no they're i like them a lot but they're i mean if
you put those in a bowl and told me they were lays barbecue chips i'd say okay yeah you know what
you are right hold on let's get a little aftertaste here no brian's right these are these are
Lay's Barbecue.
Congratulations, Germany.
You duplicated a common American chip.
Or maybe we duplicated yours.
No hires of paprika, not at all.
Like, you know, and I know paprika.
I grew up with the Hungarian grandmother that
pored everything in that lovely red dust.
Every time I hear paprika, I think of the anime,
which is weird because I don't really like anime that much,
but there's an animated movie called paprika,
and it's weird as hell.
People should watch it.
I mean, it'll freak you out.
And there's boobs in it.
All right.
Moving on.
Well, you had me at boobs.
Indeed.
So we got a note from our good friend, Gwen.
She's in the chat now.
Provider of all things, TMST, the T's that we do here, also the Ruey Dungeons.
Oh, yeah, we need to get the hookup on some ship's phasers, Earl Gray.
For sure.
But check this out.
She says that she wanted, here, I'll just read what she said.
Hey, y'all, I'll just wonder if you could throw out a shout out to my former home of
Red Lodge. A quarter of it is underwater right now. The entire country has had awful flooding, power out, waters out, no idea when there will be back on. It's a rough situation. I know there are a few listeners of yours in town. If you have time, it would mean a lot to me to mention it. Well, of course, we'll mention it. Also, I didn't realize. So I'd heard Kim was reading something off her phone yesterday going, do you hear what's going on in Yellowstone? I said, no. And she described the flooding and the, just stuff that, you know, the power out and all the stuff that was going on in Yellowstone, which is
currently closed in a total mess and uh i forgot entirely that red lodge is like right near there right
right by there yeah we saw video yesterday of of uh yellowstone and the river just basically eroding the
roads away like the flood eroding the um the roads away so it's this is going to be more
than just a all right we're closed for the weekend we'll be back open on monday it's going to be
quite a while so for them to get um roads back built in there and and places the people are able to
go yeah and if you guys are
If you guys have never seen Red Lodge, I'm putting a picture up on the chat here.
This is, it reminds me of Park City or probably any number of towns in Colorado.
It's like this beautiful mountain town with like this amazing old, old-timey-looking main street.
Mountains just like immediately in the background.
It's really beautiful.
Anyway, I hope they recover quickly.
That sucks.
Sucks big time.
I know Gwen's in the chat, I think.
Yeah, she says that it's the only road to the Stillwater Mine, the largest employer of that area.
is completely ruined.
Miners are trapped there.
Holy cow.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Geez.
I'd hoped everybody was at least out.
It sounds like maybe not.
So I always had this question.
Yellowstone's like a pretty massive tourist draw,
and it's a, you know,
it's a national park and all that.
Yeah.
Do people live there, like in the park?
Or is it?
I imagine there's probably,
there's probably rangers that live there or that have,
oh yeah, Glenn says, yeah.
Yeah, there we go, some rangers.
and stuff live there.
Yeah, makes sense.
But it's not like there's not like a whole town in there.
It would be more like surrounding towns like.
Right.
Like Estes Park, like outside of Rocky Mountain National Park.
There are rangers that live in Rocky Mountain National Park,
but then most of the people who work there who live outside of there in Estes Park.
I gotcha.
Oh, and chat, another good example, Sicily, Alaska.
Yeah, these kinds of little towns.
I love those things.
Well, that sucks.
and I hope they get out soon and that's taken care of because what was it from that
that massive rain that came through the whole Intermountain West was pretty bad I'm guessing
that that was part of this probably because we got soaked but it wasn't like you know
flooding soaked I think we got I think we caught the tail end of whatever the heck that was so
anyway our thoughts to all those people and thank you going for bringing it to our attention
and I hope you and yours are all doing okay all right uh well geez that's about as far
as far as that'll go. Let's do some news.
That sounds good.
Hey, Brian, how about some news brought to you by?
Brought to you by the delightful combination of crackers and kimchi.
Now, hear me out for a second. Okay? So I thought, okay, we got these pretzel crackers
that we like here at the house. We're fans of the pretzel cracker.
Yeah. And there's a...
They're the ones of which you speak. They're like, they look like little flattened,
crispy dried out pretzels.
Yeah, and they're great for like cheese balls and, you know.
Yeah, they're great for hummus too.
Holy yeah.
Yeah, Hummy.
Oh, honey.
Hummy.
They're good for hummy.
Good for hummus.
They're good for all sorts of stuff.
But what I didn't know is how good they are for kimchi.
So here's what I did.
I got a big bag of those from Costco.
And I'm like, you know, I'm feeling a little peckish, not starving, but just a little
something to get me by.
So I made a little plate.
And on the plate, I put like, I don't know, six, seven of these flattened pretzel
cracker things, a little salt on them and all that. These aren't flavored. They're just the
standard ones. And got some fresh kimchi from the Asian market a couple of days ago. And you take
that out and big slabs of the stuff and you put it on those crackers and then you just eat them
like an hors d'oeuvre. They're so good. That sounds good. That does sound good. It's good for
your guts too. So highly recommend. Let's move to this story here. A British man throws a
He throws a tortilla more than 90 feet, thus getting the Guinness World Record for Tortilla Toss.
Yeah.
So, Brian, I don't know if you've been wanting to compete in the area of tortilla tossing, but...
I've been wanting to...
I would like to put my mark in the Guinness Book of World Records someday, and maybe this is my chance.
Maybe I can huck a tortilla.
It feels like there's a lot of luck, right?
Like, there's no rim to the tortilla.
It's like throwing a record, and we've all done that.
that where we threw a record like a frisbee and it goes wheeves around and
right right yeah we've all done it but have we successfully done it for 90 feet the answer is
no i have not no no did he was able to all right is this a is this a burrito size tortilla is it
a taco size tortilla soft taco size tortilla well it doesn't tell me some information so here um
david rush is his name uh let's see if i can find this here on that size i don't know if they
have it here. I assume it's just a standard tortilla. Let's find out. All over Miles told
Guinness Burke World Records, he decided to do it. Oh, this is the guy that took the title
from this David Rush guy. Anyway, he wanted to attempt the world record after watching a YouTube
video while COVID was in, uh, had everybody in lockdown. Quote, attempting this gave me
something to focus on during the lockdown, which really helped my mental health and actually
break the world record, uh, will really prove these efforts weren't in vain. He told the
Guinness people. He managed a distance of 90 feet, 11 inches. It's a funny feeling. It's a super
silly world record. I can't believe I'm the person who can throw a tortilla the furthest in the
world. The said the record stood at 30 feet one inch when he originally decided to break the
record. But that was busted in the meantime by this David Rush guy who did it for 54.5 inches.
Rush's mark was again beaten before Miles had a chance to take top spot. So somebody else
even did it. Doesn't say, I assume it's the standard ass freaking flower tortilla as you buy at the
store. They don't get into it.
It just doesn't say, you know, it could be corn tortillas.
And we don't know if they're, uh, um, they're more dense.
You could throw that further probably and they're smaller, less resistance.
You could definitely throw the flour further than the corn, for sure.
Yeah.
Well, I don't know.
Unless the corn's small, because this corns are smaller, right?
Usually.
Corns are smaller.
So I don't know if that, if that cuts down on wind resistance, a friction, drag.
Yeah, that's why.
See, okay.
Number one, it doesn't surprise me at all that you said you would like to have a
Gannisbrook book
before you die
okay because that seems like
something Brian did
but we wanted to do
what do you think
it'll end up being in
like should we
should we have Jamie right now
start counting up the total
minutes of podcasting
that we've done on TMS
you know just TMS
and then
Coverville and then like
maybe we've already broken a record
yeah because we talked about this before
like there was somebody
and maybe it was Adam Curry
it was one of these people
that literally does like
a two or three hour show
every day.
Yeah.
Who is, who's doing that?
Is he doing that now?
Don and Drew were doing some long.
They were doing shows almost on the daily and it was like, you know, two hour plus
shows.
I think we've caught up with them now, though.
I had to have been that by now because they're not doing that now.
Possibly. Yeah.
Huh.
I don't know.
I'd love to find out.
I'm just curious.
Like, is there an entry for that already and like who has it?
And if not, are we even in the running?
It's possible.
Yeah.
I mean, what would be my,
What would be my, what skill do I have that I could use,
that I could harness to turn into a Guinness World Record?
Is it like most useless facts of music trivia spouted off in a one minute?
I don't know.
I mean, almost anything can count if you can demonstrate the process, right?
Isn't that how it works?
It's like.
Right, because you can make up a thing and say,
did this the longest or the most
or the fastest or whatever
and if there's not already an entry for it
how do they decide
like that's really a dumb entry
like I can tie the most t-shirts
into a knot in 11 minutes
and the thing is I think some of this stuff
like here let's look at the dumbest
or no let's say the strangest
Guinness
oh that's one we need to find right
One of the dumb ones that they've allowed in that somebody thought, well, no one's ever going to do this.
I'm going to do it just to get my name in there.
And then I'm going to do it one minute faster and boot them out.
Yeah, exactly.
Okay, here you go.
Well, not that you want to do this one, but here's one.
Fastest time to crush three watermelons with your thighs.
That's an actual entry.
Okay.
All right.
Jeez.
Yeah, that feels like.
It's pretty nuts.
Oh, by the way, the record for the...
Oh, we talked that we watched a video of this woman.
It was a...
It's a woman, right?
Yeah, kind of having a...
Oh, yeah, Olga Listic Chuck in Milan, Italy, did it.
Yes, we watched a video of her, and what she...
She's more dropping on them than she's crushing them with her...
Like, crushing them with her legs.
I don't remember.
Well, the record says 14.65 seconds.
That's about how long that video was, if I remember.
Yeah.
Okay, most straws stuffed in mouth with hands off.
I don't know what that means.
Oh, without holding them in.
Okay, so basically, like...
Like how many straws can I fit into my mouth?
Yeah.
And then stand there with them in your mouth for some period of time.
And then that's the record.
It's 400 currently achieved by Simon Elmore, who did it for 10 seconds in Germany back
10 years ago.
I could beat that.
Can they be those little coffee stirring straws that you get at diners?
Probably, because then you just...
You're not going to drink a Coke out of?
It's probably a different category, but it's a different listing.
Like, you would hold a record for that.
I can't choose the straw.
I can't say, give me those little teeny tiny straws.
Exactly.
Oh, here's one for you.
Farthest marshmallow nose blow.
They put a marshmallow up their nose and then hork it as far as I can go.
That's cool.
I think I could do that.
Like a little miniature marshmallow?
Yeah.
How about most toilet seats broken using your head in one minute?
That's a fun one.
Oh, jeez.
Nope.
Nope.
Skip that one.
All right.
How about this one?
I feel like just the training would do me in, Scott.
All right.
How about the most clothing pegs, you know, the kind of you hang your stuff out to dry?
What are those called?
Clothes pins.
The most closed pins clipped to your face in one minute.
What's the record?
51.
Could you beat that?
51.
Also an Italian person.
I don't know why.
Man.
Are they the little, they're the little scissory, like not the old style ones where it's just a, it's like the letter pie.
Right.
it's the one with the spring in it right right the one with the spring in it the pinchy ones it would
the pinchy ones yeah 51 yeah boy i need to have uh you know what my i feel like my facial skin is
too thick for that and not you're not loose enough you need some loose skin yeah i need to have
some really loose thin skin yeah let's give us another 10 years maybe we'll be there okay all right okay
how about uh fastest marathon dressed as a vegetable
fastest marathon dressed as a vegetable so you're in a what's the record so the record is
Two hours, 59 minutes, 33 seconds.
I think we looked at that video on Dally this morning.
Let's see.
Yeah, I know.
Marathon already is like, uh.
I'm trying to find a good one.
Most spoons balanced on the face.
31.
How'd you do that?
All at once?
Wow.
Is it, oh, are they doing that thing where it's like,
yeah, okay.
Yeah.
31, though?
Geez.
31's a lot.
You'd have to have a really big face for that.
Oh, is there something where,
my baldness, like where I could use my baldness to some advantage. Oh, let's see.
Largest bubble gum bubble. No, you don't have to be bald to do that. What about, is there any
any, like, most number of suction cup, um, darts stuck to head? I mean, that's not bad. What about
those darts? Yeah, the ones you toss across the room, kind of like cornhole, except they're
darts and they're rubber and they have
two ends that'll stick. Do you know the ones I'm
talking about? I would gladly throw those at your
head. That'd be fine.
Seems I don't want them thrown at me.
How about heaviest weight lifted by a human beard?
You'd have to grow your beard out.
Yeah, no. That's again, that's something that I don't
I don't want anything that like
pain might be involved
and pulling
that much weight up being pulled on
my chin. All right, one more
here. How about? Oh,
this is crazy. Is this real?
All right. The most rotations hanging from a power drill.
Oh.
So before it breaks or stops, you'd have to be small.
Yeah.
What's the number?
What's the number of rotations?
148.
Achieved by the Hui Gyang on the set of the Guinness World Records in Madrid, Spain in 2008.
So as I understand this, they've got a power drill mounted up high with the drill pointing down.
they've affixed something to the drill head
that is attached maybe to their feet.
Yeah, or your head could be.
Or their head, or yeah, right, a little harness.
Yeah, and then they spin as long as they can spin.
It feels like that has more to do with the drill than you, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
How's the torque on your drill?
How's your battery?
And why would that ever stop?
Like, you know, couldn't I just sit perfectly still
and let the drill do all the work and say 148, 149, 150, 151.
That must be why this is their number one weird one.
they have a damn weird one uh how about blowing a pee here's what it says farthest distance to blow a pee
you do it with your mouth so you get a you get a raw pee like a like a you know from a pot of peas
take a pee and go yeah as hard as you can as far as you can uh germany i think i'm liking the uh
think i'm liking the marshmallow nose toss a little bit more yeah that's more fun to watch all right
Brian, lock in on your plan for your marshmallow and...
All right, give me go buy a bag of miniature marshmallows and a yardstick and see what I got.
That's perfect.
All right, here's a story for all you fans, I guess, of Willy Wonka.
Two M&M factory workers were rescued after falling into a giant chocolate tank.
Oh, my.
Wow.
Yeah, they just took a biff right into the chocolate tank.
Two workers of the NM.
Be great if this is the origin story for the talking M&M's.
Hey, this is how we ended up like this.
Yeah, I guess this is...
I don't get it.
Hey, fun side fact about that.
That Red M&M was played by both Billy West and John Lovitz at one point.
Oh, I totally believe that.
Yeah, John, I absolutely can hear both of their voices in that.
Who did the dopey?
I think that was at one time John Goodman,
but I think it also could have been someone else.
I don't think it was ever.
I always think of Patrick Warburton,
but I don't think that's him.
Yeah, and I don't think, I don't think he's ever.
All right, okay, hold on.
Now I got to know.
We got to know, now we've got to know.
Well, Yellow Simmons, I'm sorry,
Yellow, voiced by J.R. I'm sorry, yellow,
voiced by J.K. Simmons and one other.
Hold on a second.
Yellow Simmons.
That's funny.
Yellow Simmons.
I love Yellow Simmons.
Parker.
I'm yellow.
Parker.
Let's see here.
Yeah, yellow voiced by J.K. Simmons and one other. Who else is the one other?
Oh, John Goodman. So John Goodman and J.K. Simmons.
Oh, I did not know.
So J.K. Simmons doing that like, yeah, I don't know. It looks like an envelope.
Does he just do everything?
Is he just like... The dude has such an incredible...
Listen, J.K. Simmons and Giancarlo Esposito have the best agents in Hollywood.
They really do. It's so odd to me.
Like, when I first... J.K. Simmons's first exposure for me was Law and Order way back in the day.
played the, he was the go-to for the district attorney would go to for psychology stuff.
He was a psychology expert and would come and speak on, you know, behalf or against whoever was
on trial. And at the time, I meant, oh, he's an interesting guy. I didn't really think much about
it. It just seemed like a bit part on a show. But then suddenly he was in everything always forever.
And here we are now where everyone loves J.K. And they should, rightly so. The guy's awesome.
Oh, they should absolutely love him. Did you ever see Weplash, by the way?
saw whiplash.
Oh, dude.
Please, please.
It's like the ultimate J.K. Simmons, right?
It is one of the greatest
J.K. Simmons roles and you
you
are angry at him
and you respect him and you
hate him and it's like, it's an
amazing, it's an amazing
character that he's able to pull off that you
kind of like, oh, God, I see why
he's doing what he's doing, but man, he's,
he's
how does it stack up to
Cave Johnson from the portal games.
Because I love that character.
They're like neck and neck, really.
Unfortunately.
Yeah, I love that character.
But again, he's just great.
So I hear he's in a thing and I go, oh,
I get more interested.
Yeah, go watch, I don't know if it's streaming
right now, Whiplash.
Whiplash? Okay. You could find out.
And that kid is in it.
Miles Teller, who's,
nope, currently not streaming, by the way.
Damn it. Unfortunately.
Yeah.
All the things I want to watch,
not streaming. I'm looking at a list of like who
does all the voices for the other
Eminems. Not a lot of people I recognize
and all of a sudden they veer off
into Martin the Geico
and the Humpty Camel
and that sort of thing. But
they say Orange is voiced
by Eric Kirshberger.
Eric Kersberger.
Who's that guy? I don't know
but I could have sworn that it was
Pat Nosswald. I think
something is incorrect. I think something is incorrect
because I absolutely remember.
Could have been a one-off or something?
Yeah.
Was the green Eminem, the girl?
Was she ever anybody famous?
No, it's somebody named Cree Summer or Larissa Murray.
Okay.
And I don't recognize either of those names.
Yeah, those names are not familiar to me.
I always thought, for some reason, my head always goes to Paula Abdul.
Does that make any sense?
No.
None.
There's no sense in that?
Yeah.
None.
Oh, wait.
Bebe B. B.B. Newworth didn't.
it for a minute. Someone says in the chat.
Is that true? Really?
I believe that. Okay.
Yeah. This website
I'm looking at is horrible.
It's bad. Yeah. Turns out the internet
Oh, we did see Larissa Murray in the movie
Rain of Fire, apparently.
Oh, well, we haven't done Rain of Fire yet, but we're
gonna. Oh, no, Rain of Fire. Sorry, sorry.
In the film, Rain of Fire. I'm sorry.
We've seen Rain of Fire. We haven't seen
what's the one where the aliens
come get them and the T-1,000's in it?
um rain or fire from above fire from on high oh uh fire up there fire
fire down below no fire up above above fire what is it chat fire in the sky
close enough but that that uh that's the one i was thinking you met but no got you're
yeah looking this lissa murray does a lot of uh voice work so maybe she was a female dragon in rain of fire
or something. I don't remember any other dragon
voices in that one, but
yeah, there were no
I don't try to think. There's a lot of screeching and they didn't talk.
Yeah. I like that movie. Yeah, it was
really good. Yeah, I'm a fan.
Okay. Well, anyway, so
those guys are okay by the way? The guys who fell into
they're okay. They took them to a hospital
to be safe. They got them all
showered up. They're good. They took them in the hospital
to be safe. Everything's fine. They didn't
take a bunch of chocolate into their spleen or
anything. They're okay.
So, well, well, it's a good thing. It's a good thing.
We weren't responsible for saving them, Scott, because we watched them fall in, and then we would be like, what it would be funny if this is the origin story of the talking M&M guys?
Hey, who does the voice of that?
At least you remember what got us on this track, because I couldn't remember how we did.
I have no memory of it.
All right, we're going to take a break.
When we come back, spend a little time with our old pal Bill, you know?
Bill's pretty great.
I haven't talked to him in a couple weeks because we didn't have a show last Wednesday or Tuesday.
So we're going to do that today.
That'll all be coming up here shortly.
But first, a song from the vast library of Brian Nibit.
Yeah, how about some SCA, man?
We haven't had SCA in a while, and this is a brand new EP.
You can hear the whole thing right now, courtesy of Wiretap Records.
These guys are favorites of mine.
I love Wiretap Records.
They have a brand new EP from this band called Code Name Rocky.
This is right up the alley of all of the other indie ska punk bands
that you know and love these guys are from southern california which is you know of course
if you're going to be a ska punk band you got to you got to be from you know yeah that would
surprise me if they're nice or pico rivera if they're not from there i don't believe i don't even
believe them if they're not from there that is that's where they have to be from recita they've got
to be from recita uh this is from the brand new ep called blueprint here's code name rocky
and post prescriptions
Buried Heartened Hearts and Calfielded darkness undefined.
Drudging through the shadowed darkness undefined.
Trudging through the shadows, all you know.
Batters lungs, exasperated, suffocative events we made them.
And there's battles for salvation.
There's no way.
A dire diagnosis, we're going down in flames.
Way beyond a warning shine now.
As our bullet getsizes all of us to them.
All the nerves we're concentrating molecular divide
For bodies how we tend to grow
Maybe separated
But densely jaded
For reasons unknown
A tired diagnosis
We're going down in flames
Way beyond a warning shine now
As our board capsizes
All of us to them
Like a posthumoused
Pugnosed, nothing left in safe
Way beyond the next to die now
Lonely lights and sirens to play from her dead
We sealed our fate now
Unstable statoline
Bridekeg said to blow
A countdown
A diet diagnosis
We're going down in flames
Way beyond a warning shot now
As our board capsizes all of us to them
Like a posthumous prognosis
Nothing left he says
Way beyond an after thought now
Finally lies to sirens
Too late for burst
The basis will be rye bread, mother's idea.
She found that the spicy caraway flavor made a good contrast to the bland fish and cheese.
The morning stream.
They sleeps in the raw with their maw and paw.
All right, we're back, everybody.
Hey, who's that again?
That ska band there?
Yeah, that was a band called
Cod Name Rocky from their brand new EP entitled Blueprint.
And it's, for an EP, it's got a ton of tracks.
So it's almost, it's, it feels like an LP in an EP's body.
The band, the song is called Post Prescriptions.
Nice.
Go check it out.
I like ska.
I don't hear enough of it.
I don't think.
Yeah.
I feel like I want to do more ska in my life.
Your bat caves open there, Bill.
Hey, look who it is.
It's Bill Duran joining us all the way from the home of Punished Props.com, a place of creativity and
amazing output.
It's also a great YouTube channel and a fun little shop where Bill does this stuff.
Bill, welcome back to the show.
Hello, you know, I was in a scow band in college, right?
No.
We do know that.
I didn't know that.
Did you say this before and I just forgot?
You probably did.
Probably a long time ago.
What was the name of this band?
It was called the joystick generation.
Oh, my Lord.
We played almost exclusively Real Big Fish covers.
That's fantastic.
Really?
Yeah.
I don't you want.
The Big Fish was covering somebody else.
Would you cover their cover of another?
right? I love it. I love it.
Yeah, I'm doing
Hungry Like the Wolf
by Real Big Fish
Covering Duran, Durand
Fantastic. I love it. Oh, that's so good.
That's really great. Do you have any old recordings or anything
that we could ever share on the show of you doing this?
Yeah, yeah, I do.
I think maybe it's time.
What did you, what was your
band or job in the band? Were you singing? Were you playing?
I played guitar and I sang.
Didn't know this?
Yeah. I did.
Finally, you still have the urge to do you
still have the urge these days to pick it up pick it up pick it up i do i just bought a guitar last year i
i've been playing it recently really i didn't know you're a little troubadour guy that's no idea
oh yeah that's cool all right well learn something new about our friends every day well bill it's
good to have you back we're we're gonna talk about uh whatever creative endeavor you're working on
right now to try to inspire makers who listen to the show to go make their own stuff what do you
what do you got going i wanted to teach everyone about a neat technique a thing i like one of my
favorite things to do on my lathe called nerling do you know what a neural is no nerling
they're like third generation Pokemon yeah kn uraling right that's right oh yeah so what is it
yeah uh so you got like uh probably a sound uh level machine what are those called mixer a mixer
a mixer there we got the i have a miami sound level machine that's my uh the uh the knobs on it has
have a texture, right, to make them more grippy?
Little ribs for my pleasure, yes.
Yeah, there you go.
Those ribs are nerls.
Oh.
So wait, some nerling is using those to nerl something, I guess.
Yeah, adding a texture to something, usually a cylinder to make it more grippy.
So you'll see this in a lot of mechanical things, a lot of knobs.
Like my camera has a bunch of different neurals on it.
Yeah.
I think trying to turn knobs that don't have neurals.
I know.
Yeah, right?
They just slipped.
They slip in your hand.
It's like I have no control over them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I got a new tool for my lady that came with a new neural.
So I've been playing with neurons.
I've been kind of learning a little bit more about it.
And I thought I'd share.
Okay.
Because it's the sort of thing that once you know about it, you look around the world, you see them everywhere.
Yeah, I've seen my dad used to have something that was like a roller with a handle.
And then, you know, think of a, oh my gosh, I can't think of another example of what this is.
but basically on an axel on the end of this roller was, I guess, a neural.
It was like a textured thing and you would use it to like, I don't know what he used it for, actually.
He rubbed it on something.
Don't know what.
All right.
Yeah.
So the way these work, I'm dropping a quick video clip in the chat there.
The way it works is you have the tool you want to add a texture to.
You have the cylinder.
You put that in your lane, then it gets spun around.
and then you take your nerling tool
which is a disc that has grooves cut into it
and you press it into the surface
until it basically leaves an imprint
in the metal surface.
I did a bunch of these on my
ecto goggles and it has a couple of different
textures. There's a straight
neural. There's also a diamond neural.
There's a bunch of different patterns you can do.
Jeez, it feels like you're
limited by the width of your
neural and how do you make sure
that as you go up and down that
that rod that the um that the neurals line up right because it feels like you could
accidentally offset your you are correct yeah so there are different side the the um the disc in
the nerling tool there are different sized ones so you can have different um scale of texture on
there uh and then as far as getting it to line up perfectly a little little bit of uh trial and
error sure to work correctly i mean is there a trick in the end or is there a trick in the end or
is every single time you try this trial in air?
A little bit of a trick.
You kind of have to get the diameter kind of close.
But really what I found is you've got to mash the tool in there
so that it starts forming the grooves correctly.
You really have to use a lot more force than you think to press it in there.
So it's a lot like gears almost by the time.
Yeah.
And a lot of experimenting too.
Like I said, though, I'm still learning.
I still have a lot to learn about this process.
But it is very cool.
this knob that you made is gorgeous.
I feel like I'm looking at a technique's turntable knob.
I guess that's how they make these, either industrially or...
Manufactured and cool looking.
Yeah.
Yeah, it feels really good to add that kind of detail to a piece.
Yeah.
The sort of thing they would do in a factory.
Oh, look at this.
And now you've got like an angled neural.
Oh, and it's doing like the cross hatching.
It has two different wheels on it that spin in opposite directions to cut the diamond pattern in two different directions, yeah.
Look at that.
Oh, dude, this is so cool.
So is this how this always is done?
I mean, I've used lots of knobs or that had this texture on it.
Have I always been, I always assumed a robot did this.
Maybe it did.
I don't know.
Sure.
There are a little pack of standing children with the box cutters that were.
I don't know.
It's hard to say.
bit yeah so anyway so any any machined knobs are going to be done this way even with an automated
like turret leave this could all be automated but um the knobs on your mixer are probably
cast plastic the original is probably made like this and then they cast the parts in plastic
now you're you're you're i never even thought of this before mine's all mine's neural to hell
and back this mixer yeah yeah and you're gonna now you're gonna walk around everywhere and
see neurals everywhere i mean if you're if it's plastic knobs you're probably just dealing with
mold but if it's metal labs then yeah for sure you're looking at uh neural i swear
nerals is something somebody has used in some fantasy or cartoon or kid context like there's a
creature called a neural or something i don't know why it's driving me crazy something there's a d andd
monster called a neural isn't there that might be what i'm thinking of not a neural but like a narl
narl narwhar wall narwhal i don't know it's in a bug me all day though um wow that
This stuff looks like pro, dude.
Well, that's what you are.
It really does.
I don't know why I'm saying.
It looks like a pro.
You are a pro.
What am I saying?
You're a pro.
This is very cool.
Any other application?
Tell me what this metal is.
What are we using?
Most of this is aluminum in this video, but I've been working a lot with brass.
You can do the same thing.
It'll do brass or steel.
Steel will work.
Okay.
You have to do anything to soften, like heat up the metal to make it more pliable?
You can.
It doesn't seem like it's super necessary.
for this, but you can heat up the metal to anneal it.
Aluminum and brass could both be annealed that way.
But it didn't seem necessary for this.
And there's nothing that's pre-neurled the way you need it,
because you're making a replica of a thing where it matters that you're duplicating
the exactness of the prop, right?
Right.
I got to make the knob the right diameter first and then add the neural.
Gotcha.
You can't go to a hardware store and go, yeah, I need a four-inch,
or four-eight-s-s-inch, a freaking neural.
They're not going to be able to give you what you need.
No, they're not.
And this is not the sort of thing you're going to buy at Home Depot either.
This is more of a specialty project or a tool.
Oh, that's it.
Bobby's right.
Sorry, it's that the cat, Garfield, the other cat in Garfield is normal.
That's what I'm thinking of.
That's exactly it.
It's normal.
Oh, my Lord.
Now I can rest easy.
Anyway, this is really rad, dude.
Super, super cool.
I love it.
I feel bad for, I feel, Bob.
Bad for Bobby, who's going to have to follow this?
Yeah, I know, right?
What science magic is he going to have to come up with?
Right.
Something neural-like, maybe, Bobby.
Think about it there, bud.
Anyway, very cool.
And are you, so is this a project you've already done or is this one you're working on?
I think you already did this one, right?
Yeah, that's the ectoggle.
There's a few knobs on that that got nerled.
But my Hellboy Bullet has some neurons on it and some project coming up, well, for sure,
because I'm just excited to add neurons to everything.
Well, now you're a neural.
pro when you have a brand new hammer everything looks like a nail so it does yeah
the other cool fun thing too is like now that if you didn't know what nerling is now you know the
vocab i find that when it comes to making and tools once you know the vocab it becomes a lot
easier to find information about it because you can go google it and look it up yeah it's like
mMO uh talk it's like uh lfg and uh uh i can't think anything else uh tank and tank dps like none of
These make sense to normal people until you are in the world.
And now you're not to search it.
Yeah.
Now you can search that stuff.
That makes sense.
I get that.
Oh, that was, look at the thing.
Looks like a weaner.
Anyway, uh,
Hey,
dude.
I've been at the point of the video too.
I don't like it.
Oh,
I'll be in my bunk.
Yeah.
I don't like this part.
Uh,
all right.
Hey,
Bill,
uh,
tell it,
you got a little bonus something today.
Sure,
do.
Uh,
my friend Paige,
uh,
who used to work for us is,
gone on to start her own
thing she does a lot of leather craft
leather working and she put out a great
tutorial on
making a leather pouch a very good basic
leather working project
her YouTube channel is called Redbird
makes if you want to go give her a follow
and this is a very thorough
pouch tutorial the sort of thing
you put on almost any costume so
that's cool very cool
I didn't know she used to do stuff for you that's awesome
yeah pagework dress for
three years I think oh my gosh
that's that's a three years a long time
well go check that out again that's redbird makes
and of course punish props.com and the punish props
YouTube channel Bill have a fantastic week it's great to hear your voice again
good to hear you too Scott take it easy
bye Bill okay
that was maybe more formal than I intended
whatever
all right speaking of Bobby let's get him in here let's get some science
on the on the board
We're required to have so much science, percentage of science content every week, and we missed it last week.
Yeah, exactly.
If we don't hit that quota, we're in real do-doo.
Yeah, so now's the time.
Science.
Science, that's right.
It's science with Bobby.
Oh, he was here, and then he hung up.
Nope, he's back.
The science of vanishing Bobby.
Now he's back, everybody.
He has not vanished.
He is with us.
Bobby Frankenberger.
Welcome to the program.
How are you?
I'm doing great.
I did that thing where I started a.
call with I don't know who oh that happens I feel you that's happened to me many times
do not worry hey you did a great job last week while Brian was out so thanks for that
oh man thanks I I had a blast I don't know if I've ever told either of you this but it was
it's always been sort of a like I always wanted to do a a daily sort of morning show as well
and I tried partly with the old thing I did the shadowcasters network and
and that never worked out.
So it's a format that I super love.
Yeah, but now that you've done it,
are you like, oh, man, dodge that bullet.
I don't have to do that.
No, I was jazzed afterwards.
Like, just the energy of the content and the format
is really what I like so much about it.
I mean, it's such a commitment.
You know, it's fun for the first couple of years.
Right, right, right.
And all of a sudden, it's definitely,
I'm definitely in a, definitely in a,
Definitely at an easy position to say how much I love it because I don't have to do it every morning.
It's a lot of work, but I feel you on the point of like the energy of it and the structure.
Part of the reason I even approached it in the first place was like, I want to make this thing that is already a thing somewhat on radio, but I hate how it's going.
I hate where it's headed, but I like this energy, and I want to make, I want to make something like that.
So, you're speaking where my head was at in 2011.
But also like, doing a show where you're just kind of getting to be you, you know, and because, and I know you're you on other things, but when you're doing stuff like, you know, core or, you know, one of your other shows, you still have a purpose, a drive.
direction and you kind of want to stay in that lane but you know a show like a like a daily talk
show where you're just existing yeah and and also I like the structure of it as well because
I'm very structured in the way that I like to produce things yeah you're a structured guy
very structured I have a I'm sending you a picture um in the thing I I played around with that
uh oh hey dally scott johnson eating tacos at an office depot parking lot who is this guy this is not me
it's a bunch of scott johnson's yeah different dude than me but yeah this has been the problem i did one
where scott i did one that said scott johnson drawing or something and it found it basically did
pencil drawings of all nine of these and no one of them looked like me but one vaguely kind of had my
face a little bit so this is the problem you run into if you're not really truly internet famous
These combos are going to be weird.
You know what I really like about this compilation, though, is that the AI behind it has done some sort of determination that if the person is eating tacos in an office depot parking lot, they've all got to be big heavyset dudes.
And they're almost all in parking garages too, which is.
But the heavy set part, that's interesting because what that is is that's, and they have.
have a biases link. You can look and see what
some of the biases are. But there's
bias in AI whether we
want to acknowledge this or not. We probably should acknowledge
it. That's important. But there's biases
in there whether we know we've injected
them in there or not. Because at the end of the day,
as smart as you make it, it's still people
building it, subconsciously inserting things without
even knowing you're doing it.
And there it is. Well, if he's
eating tacos in a parking lot, this must be a big
fat guy in the parking lot. Yeah, there are no thin
guys in this collagic
pictures yeah well top right is the thinnest like but he's still got a little bit of a
an overhang and he is double hand in it dude double fisting that some of these people are in
an office too i just realized that it's not all parking garages it's like yeah but some of them in
an office with cars parked in it yeah yeah that's pretty nuts pretty nuts i love it well the part
the the the uh unfortunately it's nothing like the real thing the real thing happened in an outdoor
parking lot of a yeah of a of a of a of a oh maybe you have to
just add the office max part maybe this would have solved everything i don't know and that'd be just
actual photos the surveillance photos of me eating tacos that'd be great i really hope that somewhere in
your head as you were doing it the the voice of david thuleas was in there going oh aren't you just a silly
piggy eating your tacos in a parking lot shove them down piggy with your tacos oh man remember when
he made him drink out of his peacup do you remember that scene that was rough dude
Still think about season three a lot.
Season three is a hell of a thing.
Anyway, well, Bobby, you've brought some science, I assume, today.
Tell us what you got.
What are we doing?
Speaking of neurology, neural, you know, you were invoking that a moment ago.
It is kind of neural because I wanted to talk about optical illusions.
Oh.
All right.
Have you guys seen going around there's this obstacle?
It's a dress, and I know it's blue and green meat,
Green needle.
Got it.
There's a new one going around.
It's called the Black Hole Illusion.
Have you seen this?
No.
I don't think I have.
Look it up now.
All right.
Let me send you, let me send a link to it.
It's a, well, it's a New York Times thing, so I, God, man.
I don't know, I hate that.
You could probably Google Black Hole illusion.
Oh, I found it.
Okay.
Sign to explain the new black hole optical illusion why it's so trippy.
Okay, so I'm looking at it now.
Right.
Oh, there it is right there.
So look at it and tell me.
It looks like it's growing, even though...
Yeah, it looks like you should be, like, almost getting sucked into it.
And if you look at it, it looks like it's growing or you're getting closer, you're falling into it.
That's amazing. Yeah.
Weird me out.
What's great about this illusion is that, like many optical illusions, knowing how it works, and for the chat who's watching, that's not the black hole illusion that's on the screen right now.
Oh, it's not?
But it is.
No, it's not.
this is what it said okay wait so which one do you guys have do you have a link did you put i have one
that's dots that's uh yeah it should be like a big hole with a sort of stippled looking around the edge
um oh okay popular mechanics has it i can send you an image why is
i hate this hold on here i put i put it in the in the discord the discord oh yeah this is totally
different than what i had okay yeah all right i'm bringing this so so and if you look at it
What's great about this illusion and what's great about many optical illusions is that knowing what's happening or knowing all about it doesn't make it not happen, right?
And it's because it's optical illusions are being, you know, they're somehow affected by how your brain works in the limitations of your brain.
So optical illusions in general, so your eyes can only, like, you see, like, you see,
the world because light comes into your eyes and your eyes can only send that information
that it's receiving to your brain in a limited number of ways.
Sure.
Right?
Yeah.
Our brains are what are actually telling us what we're seeing because your brain, in different
parts of your brain, are doing the interpretation and the actual perception of the image.
But your eyes are, it's all based on the information that your eyes are sending to your
brain but your brain is just got these rods and cones and it's just sending stimulation to the
rods and cones in your eyes to your brain and your brain has to do all the work um the
but the thing is your brain there could be ambiguous pieces of information in those in those
signals that that your brain your eyes are sending to your brain and your brain hates
ambiguity yeah it wants accuracy that's what it's looking for yeah it wants to
To understand everything, whether you like it or not, it will try as hard as it can to make sense of all this information that's coming in.
And sometimes when your brain gets confused, it has to make its best guess at what's going on.
So this one I just put up on stream, this is not the same, but the principle is the same.
If you stare, if you look at the dots as they disappear and come back, these pink dots, it's just blank when they're gone in the space that they're not no longer inhabiting.
It's just blank on this gray background.
But if you stare at that plus in the middle, the disappearing space has become green.
Yes, yes, right.
And it works every time, even though I know it isn't green, my brain's like, no, it's green.
I can tell it's green.
And that's a really interesting one because these different types of color illusions that you have where you have negative colors that pop up and everything, those are happening because it's taking advantage of just a neural pathway in your brain.
where color information is sent to a part of your brain that processes that information.
And a lot of that information is based on how closely related to colors are.
And if they're sitting right next to each other, because your brain has to make quick calculations based on that, on those colors.
And so it can make mistakes.
Sure.
And so your brain has to make all these guesses all the time.
And the guesses are based on past experience, sometimes the wiring of neural.
of the neurology
and also based
on your memories and stuff like that.
Depth perception is a really good example of this.
If you have two types of depth perception,
you have binocular depth perception
that uses both of your eyes.
That's for stuff that's close to your face,
the difference between the images.
It's what makes VR work
because your brain is calculating
the differences between the images
that your two eyes are seeing.
But anything that's beyond, say,
an arm's length in front of you are called is monocular depth perception it uses different depth cues
and all of those are based on your past experience of things if you look far if you look at something
far away if if an image if something appears to be obstructed by something else if you see a building
with a tree in front of it if it looks like the building is behind the tree because it's being
blocked by part of the tree then your brain is going to tell you that that that
that that building is farther away than the tree.
Oh, right.
It reminds me that car one.
There's a famous one where there's three identical cars parked on the same street,
but because of the perspective, here it is right here,
the perspective of the street, the car way up in front looks much larger,
and the middle one looks like middle size and the one in the rear looks the same.
But if you Photoshop out the background, they're the same exact size.
But my brain won't let me...
I'm looking at it right now.
Yeah.
They all look different to me.
But clearly...
I'm using my fingers to compare them right now, and you're right, they're the same.
But I cannot convince my brain while I'm looking at it that that top car is the same size as the bottom.
Yeah, which is nuts.
Like, that's just a wild freaking here chat.
You can see the end result, which is you Photoshop it out, and then look, that's all the same car.
In fact, they're not even there
They're photoshopped into the image to begin with
But they're exactly the same size
They just don't look like that.
And even the photoshopped one
The one that's farther away
Still looks a little bit bigger
And it's because of the
You're seeing obstruction
Each car is the one in front of it
Is obstructing the next one
So your brain is saying
Oh, those should be
Like if this one is in front of the other one
Then that one should be
bigger if it's sort of appearing the same size it must actually be bigger in order to be
it's like so such a complicated circuit right yeah um and uh the black hole illusion
to get back to that cool illusion yeah is um is is that's why it's working it's it's taking
advantage of some of these shortcuts that your brain uses to to to help you operate in everyday life
Because specifically what this illusion they think is going on in this illusion is the sort of heuristics and shortcuts that your brain uses to function in a world where things are moving.
So you may know that from the moment light hits your eye to when you actually perceive it, there's about 100 milliseconds of lag.
It takes some time for your brain to perceive the information.
that hits your retina. And 100 milliseconds, that's less than a second. That seems fast. But when
like, when you're like got something like a baseball flying at your face or you're driving a car,
that's, 100 milliseconds is a long time. It is a long time. Yeah. But your brain makes, gives you the
false perception that everything's happening or in order to compensate for that lag, what it does is
it takes up, it takes in a lot of information and makes some assumptions about what's like
to happen next. And it tells you
this is probably what's happening
right now, even though
you're not, you don't quite have the information
yet. You know what I mean? Right, right.
But it reminds me though, I mean, it's a good
reminder that historically
this F's with people.
Like, you see
something happen in the sky and now
we have a perfectly reasonable
cogent sort of description of
scientifically what's happening in the sky.
But when you see this phenomenon
as a cave person,
you can only ascribe it to something magical, right?
Because you just don't know,
because your brain won't let you see what's really happening.
You're just seeing whatever the illusion is of what's happening.
And I think that's another good reason why this stuff's fun to study
because it also can just change our...
It's why I love optical illusions and sensory illusions in general
because it doesn't just work with sight
is because it really, to me, is a very strong, humbling,
reminder of what you're talking about.
You hear all the time, people claim to be experts in a particular realm, and so that
gives them the, you know, the veracity to make the statements that they're making.
Like, when you talk about UFOs all the time, it's easy to say, like, oh, the average
Joe on the ground sees something weird in the sky.
Well, they just, their brain was messing with them, and they misperceived something.
So they're not seeing a UFO.
But when a pilot tells you, I'm experienced and I know what I'm seeing, and I saw something
weird in space then it becomes harder like then you start to think well they know what
they're talking about but you got to remember that it doesn't matter you can look at
these optical illusions yeah and know you know how they work no exactly how they
work and it still fools you it's still the perception is different and it's so you it's
very humbling to remember you are your brain your your your reality that you
are experiencing every day is what like psych neurologists and everything we'll call a constructed
reality your perception of reality is is a constructed reality by your brain yeah right yeah you're
everything you're seeing is not literally what your senses are perceiving it's what your brain
has interpreted that all your senses together the one advantage we have is that we we are this one
species that I'm aware of who can reason through it. You know what I mean? Can see the thing that
is fooling us. Like you do it with a dog and they see like a, you know, I take a fake moose head that
hangs on the wall and aim it at the dog. The dogs go, it's a threat. It's a moose. I need to
kill it or bark or run, you know. They don't have a way to stop for a minute and go, oh weird,
that looked like a real moose anyway and move on with their lives. They don't do that. Right. But we
So to get back to the black hole illusion specifically, I said it had to do with, this was an illusion that was created by scientists to take advantage of this lag time compensation that your brain does.
So what it's doing is when you're looking at the hole, the sort of like dots all around the outside.
And I really encourage anybody who's listening at home to, again, Google black hole illusion.
You'll see a big black hole that starts to face.
out around the edges and then there's also this like stippling like like a bunch of dots all
around on the outside too and what it's doing is it's sort of it's sort of mimicking the the smear
and blur around your perception of when you're moving forward yeah and so that's what it's
telling it's what it was designed to do is to sort of trick your brain into thinking that that
that the edges look like you're moving forward and so the black hole that you stare at
out appears to be growing because your brain is telling you, oh, you're moving forward now.
So in order to compensate for this 100 millisecond lag time, we need to appropriately and
accurately make the size of this hole that's in front of you get bigger so that you will be
able to accurately gauge how close you're getting, right?
Here's a really cool, really fascinating part about this illusion.
They did a study about this.
This is why it's in the news, actually.
They did a study tracking people's eyes while they look at this illusion
and measuring their pupillary dilation, how their pupils dilate.
And they found that not only when people look at this illusion do their pupils dily,
but the more intensely you experience the illusion, the more your pupils dilate.
And the reason that's fascinating is because it implies.
that what your brain is doing
is not only giving you the perception
that you're about to enter a dark
hole by making it look like it's getting
closer, but it's preparing
your eyes to be inside
dark dark. Oh, weird.
That's wild. Yeah. Weird.
By dilating so that you
will, you will be able to, once you
get there, see better. How do people
there's an illusion, my hand looks closer
to the screen makes me look like I have a big hand.
How, how
starting to get all trippy here. How,
Who sits down and comes up with this, though?
That's the part that blows me away.
Because nobody, this isn't a natural forming phenomena.
Suddenly there's like a bunch of stippled dots in a hole that looks like it's moving.
And we went, oh, what's this?
And we study it.
Somebody had to think of this or see something similar and go, well, what if we added, blah?
Like, that's what blows me away.
I'm looking at a page, this thing called Flex Your Brain, this website, and they've got like hundreds of these.
And I'm just like, well, who did this?
Who's sitting around coming up with this?
I don't get it.
blows my mind.
There's another one called the Asahi illusion
that is older
that looks like a sun,
sunlight. I just put that in the...
That's another move forward, move back one.
If you move forward into it, it gets really bright,
you pull back, it goes dark.
So what this one does is it gives you the illusion
that the center of this image is brighter
than the white surrounding the image,
even though it's the same.
and it's because it's designed to look like sunlight shining through leaves
or through a cloud or something like that.
Yeah.
And so the opposite happens here.
They measure people's pupil dilation.
And when you look at this, your pupils constrict.
Because your brain thinks you're looking at the bright sun.
Rock.
Even though the white in the center of the image is exactly the same as the white of the paper or website that you're...
Yeah, it's a static image.
If you do this thing, though, where you go toward it.
and then away from it and then toward it again?
That is a trip, that one.
Oh, that does.
I just did that, and it kind of like almost dims and brightens, yeah.
That makes no effing the sense.
So optical illusions, it happens auditorially as well, different kinds of illusions, even tactile illusions.
It's just your brain trying to make sense of perception.
There's famous auditory illusions.
My favorite is the auditory ones are.
really cool because you can hijack your brain
part of this
perception loop
has to do with your
memories because your brain needs to know
how has this happened in the past
and that's going to impact how you
how you interpret it so like a visual
example is when you know that image
of the beautiful woman versus the witch
the old lady the hag yeah yeah and once
you see one of them
it's hard to see the other one
right well it's kind of like this
I have this five so here's an auditory verse
version. I have this file that is supposed to be the Gettysburg Address as read by Morgan Freeman. However,
here's how it sounds when I add just a little tweak. Listen to this.
See, that sounds like Brian saying P-N-M-M-M-M-K-M-K-E-M-K-E-M.
Wow, it's crazy. Isn't that weird?
It just plays with your mind, man.
No, you can't even, you can't convince me that that's not you saying P-N-M. Yeah, that's you saying P-N-M. I hear it.
Now that's all I can hear, is me saying P-M-M.
So there's another good example.
A good example, you know the Batman Pooping Snakes, famous one?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We have that.
Let's play it. Let's play it for people.
It's so hard to, yeah, let's hear it.
Okay, pooping snakes.
Hold on.
That's my favorite one.
It's pretty great.
Okay, here it is right here.
Take the Batman pooping snakes.
Keith, think of Batman pooping snakes.
It's all I've got.
It's all I can hear now, yeah.
So you can't hear anything else, but if I tell you, and get ready to play it again,
if I tell you that what it's actually saying is take the path that moonbeams make,
Okay, now let's play it.
You should be able to hear that now.
Take the path that moonbeams make.
Take the path that moonbeams make.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah.
I totally hear it.
And it's because it has to do with that memory loop.
Oh, now I have new information in order to process it.
So all that kind of stuff.
Johnny and Green Needle and Brainstorm and, yeah.
The last thing I'll say that has to do with this,
there's actually you can take home a piece of information about this
that will improve your life.
which is
when I learned all this
I figured out
have you ever had
those sound machines
that play white noise
in your bedroom
when you're trying to go to sleep?
Sure, yeah.
Yeah, we still have one
Tina uses it.
Have you ever been in a situation
where you're laying there
and the sound machine
seems to be making
a repetitive noise
that you just can't get out of your head?
Do you know what you're like about?
Set the house on fire.
Set the house on fire.
Yeah.
I don't know how you resisted it for so long, Brian.
But sometimes it'll make a like re-re-re-re-re- Or anything like that, right?
You hear, right, you start hearing a pattern or a, yeah.
I do this with some video games where there's enough repetitiveness to a certain aspect.
Let's say it's your character's footsteps, and if there isn't a lot of variety, I start to hear that.
I'll hear like, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, and it annoys me.
Yeah, I hate it.
Yeah, yeah, so, and Amy in the chat read.
Fregell is saying, yes, it plays music. That's what happens to me. I'll sometimes hear a tune in it.
And it's repetitive. And I can't get it out of my head. It does the opposite of what it's
supposed to do, which has helped me go to sleep. And it just distracts me. And but it's not there.
And the really you know it's not there is because it's white noise. It's static. It's all
completely random frequencies, right? Yeah.
So the reason it's happening is a similar mess up in your brain. Your brain is
trying to get rid of that ambiguity and make sense of this random stimulation. So it puts
something in there that creates a pattern. So what you can do, and it has to do with sound waves all
reaching your ear in a particular wave, interference patterns happening in a certain way,
bouncing off of the walls, and they all collide on your ears in the location where your head is
in a particular way. And I've reliably been able to fix it by literally, if I just move my head
over a couple inches on the pillow because the sounds now the way they're bouncing off the walls
it's different in that location it seems it goes away huh so and it's because now your brain
is hearing a slightly different version of the same sound and it's and it's no longer trying to
it's no longer engaged in that feedback loop of of reinforcing this sound that you hear
It works for me.
I've told it to other people, and it seems to work for them.
So maybe give it a try.
All right.
How about this one?
Help me with this one.
He says, don't let nobody pick your bum.
Yeah, I never.
Yeah, exactly.
That's another great example because I never heard that until I heard you say that.
Now that's all I hear.
Yeah.
Now, you know, like wrapped up like a douche and all those things.
Like in this case, I don't actually know what O'Kasik is singing.
I don't know what the words are.
I used to know, but I don't anymore.
Don't let nobody.
Pick your fun, I think.
Pick your fun?
Hold on.
Don't let nobody pick your phone.
I'm hearing bum.
I still hear pick your bum.
Yeah.
I don't know what that is.
Anyway.
Yeah, we can find out.
It's not like this doesn't exist somewhere.
So Brian will look that up.
In the meantime, Bobby, I love this kind of stuff.
And more like this on all sorts of scientific topics are covered on all around science.
to your awesome podcast. Tell people where to get it and what you're talking about this week.
That's right. It's all around science. Just search for it. You'll get it. And we've got a website and we're on all the podcast places. This speaking of senses and sensory input, we just did an episode that came out yesterday all about your senses, but not, as I like to call them, the five senses on your face. We're not talking about the five senses on your face that you're already really familiar with.
we talk about a lot of the other senses that you have that nobody doesn't don't get as much
press don't get as much attention like proprioception or noisception or stuff like that
whoa that's crazy okay you know what here's any i want to play one more auditory tone thing okay
just because i found it and i was trying to find it and i found it so this is shepherds ascending
tones you probably heard of this is a good one yeah so this is if you loop this seamlessly
oh right it sounds like it continues to keep going up like it never ends so i've seen some pretty good
tic-tock videos where they use this to a great degree where it adds to the illusion that the video is also
not looping because it feels like the music is making it more eternal or whatever but it sounds
like this here we go so this is one form of it i've heard the ones and we're like me
meep me me meb and this is like that
this is only a single second loop repeating over and over.
But in our heads, it's just ascending.
That is amazing effect.
And it's super simple the way they constructed.
It's just overlapping sine waves that are about an octave apart.
And they do increase the base frequency over time, but like you said, only for one second.
And so each individual second of that loop is exactly the same.
But again, because when it loops, once the loop happens,
because those frequencies line up in a particular way,
your brain thinks, oh, well, it's increasing.
So it must be continuing to increase, right?
And so, yeah, and that's a fascinating one.
Freaking wild. I love this stuff.
All right, well, check all that out.
Bobby, it's always a, as my dad
would say, pleasure to talk to you
today. And my hope is
that we'll get to see you next week at this very same
time and channel. Have a good one
in the meantime, yeah. And oh, I was going to
say one other thing to you, and it was what?
It was, it was
goodbye. I can't remember. I don't know.
I did have a thing.
I was a good ask you. Yeah, I just don't remember the hell it was.
For life of me. It is don't let nobody pick
your fun, by the way. Pick your fun.
So it is fun. It's just with a bust.
an accent. You know, pick your phone. He says it terribly. He does. He really does. I mean,
poor, you know, poor Rick Akasak. Akasak. He's not with us anymore, right? He's no longer with us.
We passed away a few years ago, yeah. But his ex-wife, Hoddy McBaddy Pants, what's her name?
Paulina Poroscova? Her, is she's still around? She got things going on. She is. She was on some,
some, like, lost in the jungle reality show or something recently.

C Bennett 360
wrote in and says hey scoot
boot I have a little story that relates to one of your comments
on a recent TMS I used to work
for a now defunct retail store
think blue light special
hmm I wonder who that is Brian
wonder which one they can
could be talking about weird so as i was a department manager and was closing one night when one man
with one leg rolled into rolled in with his wheelchair he was uh shopping shoes and found a pair
that he liked uh he let me know that these were the ones that he wanted and wanted to ask me if i would
sorry if he would have to pay full price since he was only going to be wearing one of the shoes because
he's missing a leg uh i was i was in a wheeling and dealing mood and decided to give him the shoes for
half off in considering you know considering his circumstances he was very appreciative and
thank me telling me no one had ever gone that far for him before i don't know or i told him no
problem i would just return the re maining shoe to the manufacturer as effective so it worked out
for everyone your comment about target fingernail painting robot and the missing finger
reminded me of this story thanks for all the last some days tms or core are all i have to look
forward to glad brian is feeling better keep up the great work c bennett 360 well thank you
Bennett. That's very nice of you to say
those things, but also that's a great story
and I think you did the right thing. I hope
you didn't get in trouble. It's very nice of you.
Yeah, exactly. And that's a good way to do it, right?
Just return the other shoe.
Like, oh, okay, defective. All right, nothing we
can do. Yep, that's what I say.
Man, Talley's in a bad mood today.
Talley, what's matter? You all right in there? Look at
the chat. Look at Talley. I see.
I see what she put. Are you okay? That was
a nice uplifting story, Talley. Come on now.
Life is good.
put let's let's all kiss and make is there a new EA game called life maybe that's what she means is that
is that what she's up to it's some EA game just announced eff that game all right you know
let's let's something a little bit happier is that the brand new breakfast tea the morning
phaser test which is an earl gray is available now if you go to phoenix pearl tea dot com slash
TMS, not only will you see a way to buy this delicious, and Scott and I've had it, we love it,
this delicious tea, but also you'll get a few little TMS Easter eggs in the description.
Oh, yeah, look at this.
This is great.
This is an Earl Grey tea with extra bergamot and a rich floral flavor, and it is excellent.
I highly, highly, highly recommend it.
It really is good.
It even says at the bottom, we promise it won't be too much hassle, it says at the end.
Not too much hassle.
By the way, I did enter Too Early for a Fish sandwich into Dell E. Mini, and I'll share the results with you.
It's kind of disappointing.
Oh, is it?
Yeah, I was really hoping for something better, but here's what we got for Too Early for a Fish sandwich.
I did. I'll show everybody. Also, chat, you can see this one, I did a Captain America doing a very sexy dance.
It's not that sexy. It's okay. It's, I mean, it depends on your definition of sexy. Maybe this is sexy.
Yeah. And I've just lost track of that.
Let me see Brian's here real quick.
Oh, those are just a bunch of...
It's just a bunch of fish sandwiches.
Pretty well-rendered sandwiches, though.
Yeah, like, you can tell they're AI created, but they look really good.
Some of them have some weird lettuce going on, but...
That reminds me.
There's a TikTok channel that does nothing, but AI...
So old images that are too blurry, there's some AI stuff that will go and try to sharpen it all up, right?
so kind of the zoom and enhance is finally actually starting to look like it might happen
sure sure and one of them was spice girls and what he does in this video is it'll play spice
girls music and then take a blurry photo of the spice girls and from far away you'll see that
it's blurry and then a little wave goes past and you see it all sharpened and from there it looks good
you're like oh that looks awesome that looks like the spice girls but then they zoom into each face and
do it again yeah monstrosities yeah i'm sure it's so bad baby spice got like three
eyes and grumpy spice whatever her name was she's got like her eyes down here on her cheek
and her mouth goes up to her ear and it's just bad oh my god uh your your captain america by
the way i like how you called him captain american oh shit i didn't mean that's a typo i don't think
that affected your results what's going on in the middle photo uh no it's the sexiest dance
because that's a weiner cover i don't know what that is it's like it's like he's figured out a new
place to wear his shield
HUBA, hubba.
Yeah, right out front where you need it.
The one next to it on the right is also giving me the willies.
I'm not exactly sure what's going on there.
The microwaved Captain America action figure.
They're all pretty nuts.
I don't know about this future we're entering, dude.
It's a weird, I don't know.
It's a dark, dark, scary place.
It's a scary place, and I'm here.
I guess I'm here for it.
Why not?
Yes.
So go get your tea from phoenixpriltee.com slash TMS.
That's right.
Also, if you're feeling in a very,
supportive mood. Good news. You can do that at
Patreon.com slash TMS. And
lots of reasons to do that. Go read about it there.
And also check out our website,
frogpants.com slash TMS. That is
it. We're out of here. Let's play some music. What do you have?
I have a delicious,
funny, fresh potato chip
is what I have. Nice.
I also have
a request from Will B
who says,
Hello, Scoot, and Boot. My loving
wife, Jackie, is turning 37 on June
13th. And I would love for you to play
something of Brian's choosing for her special day.
She is endlessly supportive, loving and a great mother.
Did you see that, too?
Yeah.
Everything about the previous presentation was gold.
That was all good.
I have no complaints.
Nothing to complain.
And then watch said chip fly out of my mouth,
ricochet off my microphone.
Can somebody please?
Can we get a clip?
No, no.
Somebody's going to clip that.
I want that so bad.
All right, anyway.
This is why you don't eat and podcast people.
Yep, right there.
Reason number 428, right there.
Yep.
Oh, geez.
All right.
I look forward to what the future has to bring,
and I'm so glad that I have heard
to navigate life with.
Thanks for all that you guys do.
Love the show, though.
Will.
P.S., can I get a Daryl Skeels saying,
what, five times in a row, please?
Oh, hell yeah.
I keep trying to get Daryl to come on and just do a,
like even a one-off, hey,
what do you think all this new Star Trek stuff?
Dude won't answer me.
Here it is.
Okay, you want it five times?
Is that what I heard?
Five times super fast, yes.
Okay, this is as fast as I can do it.
What, what, what, what, what.
There you go.
That's fantastic.
Yeah, I wish I could do it.
But I'm not set up for it.
By the way, here's Dally with Let's Test the Ship's Phasers, and it's.
Is it good?
It's amusing, and I'm not sure what it's coming up with here.
Oh, what in it?
Oh, processing.
There we go.
Okay, let's take a look.
Oh, there's a...
We start off with a phaser.
It's just a straight-up phaser.
Just a straight-up phaser.
And then a bunch of ships with, like, push pins and...
Yeah, what is stuck into these weird...
What is that?
These weird ships.
I don't know what's going on here.
Test the ships, phasers, push-pin-looking things.
That bottom one, I don't know what to make out of almost all of that,
except for the top left.
one. I put a, I just put a link in the chat, Jeannie. It's that huggingface.co slash spaces slash
dally dash mini. But that link right there. Just search. Yeah. And search for Dallie. Dowell, D-A-L-E. You'll
just, it'll come right up. All right. So, um, back to the request. Will B said, you know,
anything. He trusts my discretion. And I've got a brand new cover that rocks. This is by the band
all time low. They just released this. And it is.
is so, so good. It's cover of the weekend. Here is all-time low and blinding lights.
All right. That's going to do it for us tomorrow. We've got recommendals and all the other
normal stuff we do on Wednesdays. Tom will be here, all the phone Wednesday stuff. So come back to
that. Yeah, I think so. I think we got Nicole back. We were going to do it last week. But with you
out, I don't know, just felt weird. So we didn't do it. But we're going to do it tomorrow for
sure. And that'll be fun. What else? Oh, play retro tonight. Check that out.
330 Mountain Time. Me and Brian Don't know why talking about all these fancy little mini consoles that
keep coming out. What does the future of that hold? Will we get a dreamcast mini one day? One can
hope. I don't know. We'll find out. All right. That's it. Thank you all for listening.
I feel like I get something else to say, but I don't. So that's it. We'll see you guys.
Moniana.
I'm trying to call
I've been on my own for long enough
Maybe you can show me how to love
Maybe
I'm going through withdraws
And you don't even have to do too much
You can turn me on just to touch
baby
I look around
and listen
it is cold and empty
no one's around
to judge me
I can see clearly
where you're all got
I said
Ooh
I am lying in by the lights
No
I can't sleep
Until I feel your
I touch
I said
Ooh
I am drowning
in the night
Oh, when I'm like this,
You're the one I trust
Hey, hey, hey
Hey
Oh
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
Because I can see the sun
Light up the sky
So I hit the road
And off a drive
Baby
Oh
The city's cold and empty
No one's around
Don't judge me
I can see clearly
We are gone
Are on
I said
Ooh
I am blinded by lights
No
I can't sleep on
Until I steal your touch
I said
Ooh
I am drowning in the night
Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust.
I'm just walking fine and let you know.
I can never say it on the phone.
We'll never let you go this time.
I said, oh, I'm blinded by the lights.
No, I can't sleep while until I feel your touch.
Hey, hey, hey.
I said, oh, I'm blinded by the lights, no, I can't sleep until I feel the heart, I'm blinded by the lights.
Such.
