Oh, Hank. morning stream a little dabble do you hello everybody welcome back to tms it's the morning stream for what is it tuesday june 21st 22 i'm scott johnson it's uh brian ibut over there hi brian hello hello lost track of time there for a second forget what take what freaking day it is dude it feels like it's been forever right because we had a day off and and um you know we had a sunday a week ago where we did a film site on a Sunday which kind of helped you know break things up but no we had two days two days where we didn't talk sky that's crazy i don't understand it's been a long

time since that's been true right i think maybe when you went to uh when you went to ireland there was maybe a couple of days there we didn't talk definitely definitely hey uh does that that clip of uh noho hang that uh you played there does that mean you're you finished the most recent season of barry i'm in the most recent season of barry Gotcha. Okay. That show, I've always been caught up on week to week when it was out, the first two seasons, every episode I was on. But this one I got behind. I'm like, you know what?

I'm just going to let it pile up. It's not long. These seasons are over before you know it. And so, yeah, I'm in the middle of it. I'm probably season or episode three, maybe, four. Oh, okay, cool. Yeah. I couldn't remember where in the season he said that.

But get ready for an incredible episode. um where i'm trying to think if this is considered a spoiler i don't think it's considered a spoiler okay i trust where bill hater delivers an incredible acting performance without uttering a single word oh wow okay yeah i'm in is that the finale or is something something in the middle it's something something in the middle um and um i like telling you this because it's something i wish i would have known before I watched that episode so I could fully appreciate it, but it wasn't until afterwards that somebody pointed it out. I'm like, oh, no kidding. He didn't say a single word that episode. Interesting. Okay. That sounds great to me. I don't mind spoilers anyway, but I don't think that's one.

Yeah. That's definitely not a spoiler. There's no story elements given away. It is basically just a, hey, be sure to check out the incredible job by the always amazing Bill Hader. Yeah, Bill Hater's amazing. I already liked him, but this show just makes me go, man, He's got so much more to give. He's so good. Yeah, he is. You see the production set? Furiosa images?

I don't know if you saw these. No. Okay, well, I'm going to share them here with you and the world. Okay, all right. Because why wouldn't I? Hold on a second. Let's just rip off that zero days without a Fury Road reference. Yeah, guaranteed to have happened.

Don't see here. Why can't I find it? I imagine you completed framed yesterday without any problem. Yeah, framed first frame. You got it right away. And when people start saying, oh, make sure Scott does frame today, Brian, like telling me to tell you, like, oh, okay, I'll mention it to him in our meeting this morning. Yeah, our very important meeting we have before every episode that we do every time. Exactly.

And I, as soon as somebody said that, I'm like, oh, well, I think I can probably guess it without seeing frame one. Is there a way I can guess on frame zero now? Yeah, yeah, exactly. Now, there's some question here. I'm looking at, oh, I haven't sent you the link. Yeah, send me the link. Let me do that real fast. Send link, please.

Indulge me at home, everybody. I know. You're sick of my Mad Mac stuff, I know. But from what I can tell, this one image that I link to you first, there's four images total. This is just a production shot. There's some, you know, guys out front here. You can tell they're working on the set and stuff. But back there behind the wall, looks like if it's not Furiosa, it's somebody like her with the head color, you know, the grease head.

Right. the uh right very much like the charliez there on yeah and it's not her as far as we know because she's keep saying she's not in it but i've learned to not always believe that sometimes secrets are best best kept by lying to everybody and telling you you're not you know it's possible that the story is bookended by her by charlie's going let me tell you about the time that i first encountered blah blah yeah exactly so this is entirely possible now what's interesting is, I don't know if anyone else is noticing this in the chat room or Brian, but there is a lot of green in this place.

And in the movie, they refer to the green place all the time. So I have a feeling this is what that is. I see a bunch of ladies on motorcycles, which tells me those are the many mothers, or at least they're part of that whole thing. So there's a bunch of lore coming together in my head that I have no basis for other than just quick visuals here. But I'm so excited, I can barely freaking stand it. Oh, I can't, that third picture, I can't wait to find out which character drives the white Nissan Centra.

Right, exactly. Yeah, that's going to be great. By the way, I love one of the first comments on that third image. Or maybe it's, I guess it's all these. It's the first comment on all these where is Medmex? Where is Medmex? Where is Medmex? Where is Medmex?

Yeah, where is Bubu? No boo-boo. I forget what he says sometimes. You didn't even bother to, you know, read the tweet about it being. Furios or anything like that. Where's Benbex? Yeah, where is he? Where's Benbex? Anyway, it's pretty cool. I retweeted it, so if you want to see

what I'm talking about, everybody at home listening, you can go see that on my Twitter feed. It's Scott Johnson. And I'm very excited. I can't stand waiting, but I'll have to wait. You will have to wait. We will all have to wait. Runtfish sent me something I thought would be very shareable on the show. So thank you, Runtfish for this. Not only a very

nice person, but one of my favorite nicknames on the internet. Runtfish. Runtfish. Great name. Sounds like a either like in oh go ahead this isn't tied to a game we're going to play right i can open that link yeah you can totally click it you're totally fine good all right uh 10 most expensive domain names ever sold this list surprised to me so you always think about well i'm sitting on these domains some of them i think are pretty good you know maybe you'll make some money off one of these one day oh you'll never make it in this level okay so fb.com formerly the farm bureau

Federation domain purchased by Facebook because FB, right? A Facebook. Right, of course, yeah. 8.5 million. That's number 10. So we're starting.

Wow. We're starting with 8.5 million. 8 and a half million. Holy Toledo. We're going to work our way up. We're going to almost double that with number nine. Insecure.com. Nope, just insure.

Did I, how did I read Insecure there? Hold on. Oh, shit. Paging Dr. Freud. Yeah, no kidding. Okay, well, it's insure. You're right. Like insurance. Not insure like the weird drink, my grandma.

Not insurance. Yeah, not insecure. I'm not going to buy some insecurities. Yeah, you need to, it's not legal if you don't have car insecurity. Anyway, 16 million. So they doubled the price there. 360.com, 360.com. Belonged to a UK Vodafone group before the Chinese-based,

Quih-ho 360 bought it for $17 million. Jeez. I would have thought. Xbox, right? I would have thought Microsoft might about that. Yeah, like back in the day or something. Back in the day, yeah. Yeah, but no, this is Chinese company. Internet.com

18 million, a couple million more. Let's see. I sold this for 2009. Company made a successful domain investment and helped fund its effort to improve the business value, whatever that means. And the sad thing is they bought it and

it's now back available for sale. Is it? Yeah. Oh, no way. Yeah. It is. Yeah, internet.com. How much, though? It's not like it's going to go down from $18 million.

It's like, oh, somebody else is going to say, well, freak, internet.com. Yeah, I'm totally buying that. Yeah, it's pretty nutty. Look at it. Their website has a cool float your mouse around and make the background. Oh, really? Yeah, that's kind of cool. I wish all squatting pages look like this.

Anyway, so there's that. what else we got here okay yeah check this out voice.com a cryptocurrency company bought this before the bottom fell out I guess for 30 million

$30 million dollars from an American software company micro strategy in 2019 at first the offer of the domain was just a mere 150,000 but I guess there was a bunch of competition there 30 million that's a lot of money for voice talk

that is for voice dot com. Good Lord. And again, like, you know, micro strategy. Yep. And you'll notice, by the way, we're now going to head into the top five. You're going to notice that we're heading into luxury territory. Like, we are definitely playing with the big boys with the big pockets because it's all shit from here on out.

So here you go. Privatejet.com. Privatejet.com was sold for $30.1 million. And this is where you start getting to the point, whatever's, because, you know, that's how these things go. Right. The website aimed to provide 24-7 in-depth coverage of luxury lifestyles. Pass. Yeah, big pass for me.

Here's another one, vacationrentals.com. 35 million. Good Lord. That's a lot. No kidding. And so that one is, okay, that redirects a verbo bought that one, which, you know, vacation rentals could just be as simple as an Airbnb or Verbo, for example. It doesn't have to be like a, I'm going to rent a big mansion for my Fire Island festival.

Exactly. But the thing here is, if you're going to spend that kind of money on a domain like that and all you do is forward it, same with FB.com. Right. I think you make too much money. You know what I mean? Like, that's just, that's ridiculous. You're going to spend $35 million on a URL that you've never planned to use it all. It's just only going to be a forwarding URL.

Like, I'm sure they have numbers that say, well, enough people use that link that we make, you know, that we're, it was more than justified. But gosh, dang, dude. I don't know. Does it, do enough people search for vacation rentals that wouldn't search for, you know, that their, that their regular SEO for the two words, vacation rentals wouldn't do for them anyway? I 100% agree. And I think it's ridiculous. This means you have too much money is what it means. Yeah, it does.

Insurance.com. So the full insurance, insurgents. Just kidding. It's insurance. 35.6 million. This was, let's see, aside from automotive insurance company also provides comparison services for home life and health insurance. Again, if the insurance company, if insurance companies make, if they can buy domains

for that, that's too much. And that means we're paying them too much money. Insurance is a scam. Exactly. We're going to have to up your rates because we bought a domain. Yep. We bought insurance.com, so I'm afraid your rates are going to have to go up. And here we go into...

By the way, Quinn Street, by the way, is this company that owns so many, like four or five of these that... Oh, Quinn Street, yeah. It feels like their whole business model was to buy domains when they were cheap, but no one had them. Hold on to them. No, I think they're the ones that are buying, that are spending the money. Quinn Street, like if you look at insurance.com, Quinn Street bought that for $35.6 million. Oh, I see. So they're the ones actually buying these...

Let's see, a strategy to take over prominent insurance-related domains. Yeah. Okay. So it's almost like they are, like, they're buying it to sell them as a big cluster to, like, Allstate or Progressive or Geico or something like that. What a skee-vis. I don't like it. It is. It is.

It's all right. How about this one? Carinsurance.com. 49.7 million. Again, the Quinn Street-owned domain things. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, number one is my favorite, because it reminded me of you, partly why I wanted to share this list.

Gosh, can't imagine why. Vegas.com. Yes, Las Vegas.com. I'm sorry, Las Vegas.com went for $90 million. Wow. Oh, my. Comprehensive domain pricing estimates that Vegas, Las Vegas.com, is bought at the cumulative price of 90 million. Vegas.com LLC, the buyer, signed a contract to pay for the exclusive domain ownership under this scheme.

initial one-time payment of $12,000, $83,000 monthly for 36 months. That's a hell of a monthly payment. Then $125K for the next 60 months and $208,000 monthly for the next 36. That's their payment plan. So three years, five years, three years. So 11 years of payments. Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. You know, and that one is a, that one's a defamation. offensive play. You look at that and say, okay, because it was bought by Vegas.com. So if you own, if you're the company that owns Vegas.com and you're basically, you know, the, I think it's like the tourism board of Las Vegas. Is that who owns that? One of the worst things somebody could do is slip under and get Las Vegas.com and start pointing to their own hotel deals or airfare deals or whatever. Oh, I see. Yep. And just swipe them right up. You're right. Swipe them right up front of underneath you. I'm looking at it right here. It just gives you.

you some price guarantees it's actually kind of broken their image their image carousel's not working oh no on Vegas dot or Las Vegas dot com this just tells me people have too much slushy money just just throw away you know what I mean the other can I tell you the other thing that I really like about this I mean this is where somebody with some Photoshop skills the tiniest of Photoshop skills would come in handy you go to Las Vegas.com yeah see that big I would say muted, a poorly muted colorized version of the west side of the Las Vegas strip, right?

I'm sorry, that's the east side. You're looking at the east side of the street. Right, because on the other side, because that's the whatever you call it over there. That's Paris and the Bally's and the Cromwell and all that stuff. And the CBS! Sorry, go ahead. That's what I was going to point out. Exactly. Look how prominent freaking CBS is in the middle of that. Like, you want to show off, ooh, hotels and glitz and glamour and fountains and all this stuff going on. Like, they captured this perfect moment that the fountains were shooting up there,

but also something shooting up over at the corner of Caesars and the high roller wheel on the background. Everything looks great. It's all lit up. CVS. And CBS is just right there, for all of your toiletry needs. If they didn't make a deal and say, five million dollars, or we blur that out, or replace it with Walgreens. We Photoshop that.

Then you're effed up. You've done effed up. Exactly. Yeah. I agree. Well, you know, I don't, I'm just going to say it. I'll say it proud. I think 90 million is too much to spend for anything, let alone a freaking damn domain.

I agree. I mean, yeah, I get it with the, the, but somebody made a beautiful payday that day. Yeah, they did our right, I think. Yeah. All right. I also have a little bit of a clearinghouse problem today. We've got to get rid of some short emails that we've been piling up for a while. Do you have some, do you have some short email answering?

music? No, but I have this. Send and receive email. That. Good enough. Good enough. Good enough. Or this. In the news. No, not that. I can't find it. I had a fart sound. I was going to play and I can't find it. So here's all those emails. These have been piling up for a while. We got one from Darren. This is his short email. Hey, Scott and Brian. You say dude a lot. Why do you say dude so much, signed Darren? I don't know if he means both of us. I assume so. Because I say dude a lot. He probably means,

I say dude a lot. Yeah. Oh, dude. I feel like dude was, dude is a word that's been around forever. You could go back all the way to probably, I don't know, 1700s or something for dude. Right. But it's prominence in my life happening. Something totally different for Sam Elliott. Exactly.

He was talking about the dude. The dude abides. But if you go back to high school, junior high and high school for me, it was planted in me permanently. It was just part of the vernacular of the time. That's what we said dude with everything. And I just don't know how you take it out of us. It's just in us, right?

No, it totally is, exactly. And you look at the fine work by the comedian David Spade, who explained that dude covers so many different instances, different ways of saying it and different meanings depending on how you say it. There's even a card game based on it. Come on now. Yeah, it's absolutely true. I was wrong about the...

So for the rest of today, instead of dude, we're going to replace it with Darren. There you go. Oh, Darren. Yeah. And by the way, I like that. Darren, I'd have to really get used to it. What up, Darren? I was wrong about the timing. Dude is an American slang for an individual, typically male from 1870s to the 1860s or 1960s.

Dude primarily meant a male person who dressed in extremely fashionable manners or a dandy. So this word, according to this, chronology, replaced dandy. Dandy? That's interesting. So guy was like, you know, a fancy coat and a top hat and a cane, we would have called a dude in the 1870s. Someone comes to town, right? Brick comes into your small backwater freaking Arizona town

and he's all dressed to the nines like he's from New York or somewhere back east. And everybody would go, well, look at that dandy. Or they began to say, look at that dude. That's what they'd say. Right, exactly. It's so much better than a dude ranch sounds so much better than a dandy ranch. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to go hang out with the dandy ranch.

Ranch. My favorite listing here is uses in film. In the Big Lobowski, Jeff Bridges is known as the dude. The 2000 film, Dude Where's My Car, uses the word in the title. Really? Does it? Does it happen in the title? On the back of Sean William

Scott. Oh, how's he doing? Is he okay? I'm sure he's fine. I'm sure, you know, he put in some time in the 2000s and uh he had a there was a drug moment there for him i hope i hope that's all over was there like a i think so i think so he described himself as a private guy victorious okay so i have to

pose can't stand for that there was something something i read back in the day was like the heady days of stifler are over sean leiam scott checks himself into rehab i mean you know whatever it's hollywood everybody everybody he did make a cameo in 2018 in the sequel to Super Troopers. Oh, Lord. Also appeared as Crash in Ice Age Collision Course. How did I miss it? How did I not get that on my schedule?

I guess he's played Crash in a couple of the Ice Age movies. Oh, yeah, in that lethal weapon show. I forgot about that. Oh, that's right. He came in and replaced other crap. Maybe I'm thinking of that guy's the one. Maybe you're thinking of that guy, because that guy, right, was problems. He was a poo-poo.

That guy. Yeah. Yeah, we don't like him. He's also in the brand. new series, Welcome to Flatch, which just premiered, oh, I guess premiered a couple months ago, but I keep seeing ads for it, and it's like, I think I might want to watch that. It might be

funny. It's a comedy. It's a documentary about Flatch, Ohio. Documentary film grows a group of young adults, their current concerns, and their small town. The crew focuses on their daily lives of cousins Kelly and Shrub Mallet

and their idiosyncratic surroundings. Interesting. Oh my gosh. So wait, does Stifler play somebody's dad? Yes? Oh, no. Oh, wow. We've come so far. We really have.

The first few episodes were directed by Paul Fieg. So it's like, okay, that's kind of where the comedy direction of this thing is. Paul Figue. Oh, bridesmaids and stuff. Right? Yeah. Bridesmaids, the Ghostbusters. The bad one.

Answer the call. Yeah. I would say Ghostbusters, too, was the bad one. I thought answer the call was adequate. It's better than two. That's for sure. Better than two. Two's bad.

Two's straight up a piece of garbage. You've got some great moments and some very quotable lines from Peter McNickle. But other than that. Still haven't seen that new one. I should. We should watch it. Just haven't. Oh, you really haven't?

Oh, wow. I haven't gotten around to it. Where is that? Dude. I mean, Darren. Darren. Darren, come on. Come on, Darren.

Darren. Darren. Darren, you need to watch that. Oh, Darren. It doesn't work as well, does it? It's hard. It really doesn't, no, because it really, you can't, the dude is just so general.

And even though you're trying to replace it and make Darren feel general, it still feels like you're talking to that one guy who emailed. Yeah, plus I know a guy named Darren here locally, a friend of mine, and I'm worried that I would say, oh, Darren, Darren, like I'd mix Darren's and dudes. Nobody wants to mix Darren's and dudes. here's one from KinderSpace who says hey Scuttle and Brisk What would you do if you ate a B? Thanks for the show

Well it depends It ate it like swallowed it or it flew into my mouth Let's say one okay we'll go we'll do a two-parter here The B you're at a picnic you're on your whatever you're hanging out with Dave Crazy neighbor you're looking at his cool new you know on above ground pool and and you're going Yeah that's pretty cool right and right as you say it and then you breathe that you laugh and then you breathe in to capture some air. In comes a big, fat old bee. And we'll not say it's like a hornet or something, because hornets are dicks and they'll sting you

whether you want to or not. Oh, yeah, that'll be like the stinging inside your throat as it's going down your... Yeah, that's a nightmare. Now, the bee would certainly be capable of the stinging. It's just less likely because a hornet's a dick. So what would you do? If first of all, it flew in your mouth, what's the first thing you try to do? Drink a something like the closest alcoholic drink that I can to to both drown it and drunken it drunk in it exactly like

I want to what's the word like I want to cotterize there's a word I'm looking for here sedate the date yeah exactly okay no that's cool then it would calm it down so it's not going to sting now what okay then

and also potentially with that liquid in your mouth you'd like slosh it around and blow the bee out of there he's done right right oh sure right so you're saying this is still in my mouth still in your mouth you got bee mouth right now oh yeah yeah then anesthetized maybe that's it uh in any case slash around spit the bee out no problem okay now let's say the bee if i can spit it out prior to the alcohol then that's what i'm doing but what this now we're saying now now now now what about this though here's let's make a twist you were breathing in when it came in there and they breathed it all the way down into your one of your lungs it's like in your lung now

so you got you got bee lung what are you going to do. Because that's not like that's, that's, he'll, he can fly around in there. Yeah, he's got mobility. Sure. He can crawl, fly, whatever. And he's going to cause him, he's going to, uh, inflict some mayhem. Well, that, he's going to panic for sure, right?

Yeah. Because he's in this wet, arid nightmare of a, I mean, those, you know, I know that they can, obviously have a stinger. They have one stinger. And if they sting you, then it, it causes them to die. But they can still bite, right? uh oh i don't know can they can they bite i don't know if bees can bite never actually uh heard whether they can buy i assume they could probably buy bobby says fly around in your lung what the heck do you

think your lungs are balloons i mean there's they hold air they're they're large enough yeah i mean he's not going to be like he's going to have some room right yeah he's going to go blubblah you get the the uh inside the uh inside your lungs the little fingers but uh uh there's some room for them to fly, aren't there? Yeah, he'll do some stop and start and kind of, you know, bumping around a little bit. But even if he gets all wedged into a little bit of a goo hole or whatever, then what, though? Do you let it die and absorb it? Do you worry about infection?

Because now there's a dead bee carcass? Okay, pretty, like a dense sponge. Okay, so J.C. Cahoon and Bobby are saying no, lungs are more like it. So I've been looking like all those commercials, those TV commercials that show the cutaway of a dude who can finally breathe using afrin or something like that who like has his head turned and he's going and they show his lungs they're showing his lungs like freaking balloons yeah they're like balloons they've we again they're like dude like dude the word uh the 80s been planted into us we have no idea what adanabe looks like on the inside because all the commercials were just this side

view of that guy going right and his fake lungs simply squared he's saying this is like the episode of rugrats where they thought watermelon seeds would grow in their belly Um, not quite. I'm not saying more bees would come out. Yeah, it doesn't mean more bees will be there. I'm just saying, let's say the bee got into this dense spongy material that is your lungs. Okay. And he's in there.

And he dies from, he stings you. And maybe you don't even feel it because who knows how your nerve endings work in there. I mean, Bobby probably does, but I don't know how. So let's say. Bobby apparently knows everything. So let's say that happens and then bee dies. Are you just going to, do you just say? okay well the bee's dead or do you do something like uh antibiotic sort of precaution

and like what do you do nothing i don't know what do i don't know either i mean i think i call well i think i hop into discord and ask dr tollbert and dan petrice what do i just inhaled a bee and he stung me inside my uh uh my lungs my spongy lungs and bobby bobby says i'll be quiet no keep we like this keep keep it coming man anytime we say something scientifically ridiculous. I like when Bobby pipes up. Exactly. Whatever Bobby had lined up for his segment, it's been replaced by lung education.

There you go. Now, I do have a sound I would make if I ate it. Would you like to hear what sound I would make? Yes, please. That's the sound I would make right there. Yeah. I want to say that somebody in my family, and it might have been my uncle, did swallow a bee or a yellow jacket or a wasp because I,

I distinctly remember being at a picnic, really, really young, probably like seven or eight years old, and a bee flew into his soda can, and he drank it. That's horrifying to me. And since then, or at least for a while after that, whenever he would pop the top on a soda can, he'd flip the little thumb popper over to the hole to make it a smaller opening so that to hopefully keep bees from flying in there. I mean, they can still wedge their way in there. Sure. Oh, bees love sugary drinks in the summer, man. They do. Yeah, they'll go right into your can.

And you don't want that. You don't want to be right in your can. You don't want to be in your can. There is someone asked in the chat, isn't there a childhood song about this? Yeah, it's the old lady who swallowed a fly. I don't know why she swallowed a fly. I hope she'll die or I think she'll die or maybe she'll die.

Perhaps she'll die. I hope she dies. I hope that old bag dies after eating that fly. She was a bitch. But the rest of them are like, I knew a guy who ate a tree. I don't know why he took the tree. She keeps swallowing bigger and bigger things, right? So she swallows something to eat the fly.

And then she has to swallow something else to eat the second thing. And then she keeps swallowing bigger and bigger things to, to, yeah, spider. She swallowed a spider to eat the fly. And now it's inside her. Spider's inside her. I don't know why it's insider. She likes apple cider. There's the song.

Yep, nailed it. I remember it perfectly. It's made for some great titles that we'll have to hear at the end of the show. Yeah, we're going to have to dig through these. All right, here's one from Constable Bishops. I don't know who that is. Freaking love that name. Constable Bishops.

I am Constable Bishops. Come with me. To whom it may concern. I guess that's us. Is therea or Thera? Thera. Potato. It's not spelled potato right.

potato with a T. He spelled it like Dan Quail. Okay, so is there a potato there, but spelled the wrong there? Possessive there. Possessive there. Signed Constable Bishops. I don't know what to. Why did I even pull the email?

The answer is yes. Thank you, Constable Bishops. Is there a potato there? You want to ask for Indica. Okay, next time you're at your Bud, your Bud salesman. Indica, not the other stuff that hypers you up, okay, bud. But, all right. Armin, final one, Armin.

Okay, all right. I hope the last name is Hammer. Yeah. Or Amarin Shimmerman from a freaking Star Trek. Deep Space Nine. Yeah, that guy's great. Hey, guys, important question here from Germany. Oh, Germans.

Would you rather eat a, oh, man, it's one of these. I forgot. I put this in there. Would you rather eat a rotting, nasty, severed big toe once and keep it down? Or, before. to put Danny DeVito's big toe in your mouth every day for 90 days. The world must know, Amron, or Armin. Is that Armin?

I've never heard that name. It's Armin, yeah. Yeah. Germany name. You know, here's the thing. If we reward this person by giving them an answer, they're just going to send more. By giving them a platform. Yeah, it's a good point.

Okay, Armin, don't take this as an opportunity to ask this. all the time or anything. But I think I would do the the rotting toe once. I don't want to put Danny DeVito. I would do the rotting toe once. Yeah. I would keep it down.

I'd push it through. You know, I don't want to. He doesn't say how long Danny DeVito's toe, the Danny DeVito would have to be in our mouth every day. The DeVito. DeVito. That's good. Would it be right after his shower?

Like, even that. Good Lord. I know. It doesn't matter when. at this stage of his life, at this stage of my life, I don't want Danny DeVito's toe anywhere near my mouth. Oh my gosh. Yeah, exactly. At least maybe it'll step on the bee. Thank you, everybody. There's a callback, ladies and gentlemen.

Because honestly, the eating, I could swallow a toe, severed toe. Rodding or not, I could have it go down and one sleep. You could get it down and just be done with the whole thing. Yeah, be finished with it in one fail swoop. But 90 days of, all right, Mr. DeVito, give me your big nasty club foot with freaking 400 years of goo on it. Put that giant toe in my mouth. Oh, you didn't clip your nail this time.

It snagged my cheek. Like, F off! Like, cut my tongue on your ragged toenail. That's horrendous, so no. Because basically you're saying, do you want to eat one nasty toe once, or do you want to basically eat 90 days

worth of a nasty toe? Suck on a nasty, a live nasty toe for 90 days. Gosh, dang it. I don't even care if Danny DeVito likes it, but you probably wouldn't. This is why I didn't want to reward Armin with this business. Yeah, that's a good point. Maybe he does wash his toe.

Maybe that's why. Black his evening address. Whatever. Maybe, maybe Rea Perlman left him because his toes were bad. I don't know. Maybe. I have no idea where this evening is coming from. That's the other thing, Armin, if you want to send in an email explaining where your

mind got this, that'd be great. Hey, Latka. You got take taxi number 15 and pick up a thing. Hey, Rieger, where's that fair you was supposed to bring me? I'm the same person my entire life. I've never changed. That might be my next, is that streaming anywhere? Taxi is streaming, I think, on Hulu, I believe.

Let's see. Is it all the taxi? Streaming. Oh, I'm sorry, Prime video. It looks like somewhere. It's streaming somewhere and it's worth it because that's still a very funny show. It's worth watching. Some early producers that would go on to do all the cheers.

stuff and all the Frazier things and the Simpsons and a bunch of other people all came out of there. It's really good. That's right. Yeah. All right. We're going to never read emails again and instead do this. It's time for the news and it is brought to you by.

Brought to you by Coverville. There was a brand new episode last week and since we do and do a Thursday show. I couldn't tell you all about it. But I'm going to tell you about it now because as it is a podcast, you are able to go back Good listen to it. Paul McCartney turned 80 this last weekend, and so, of course, I did a big old Paul McCartney show,

focusing on his solo career as opposed to his time with the Beatles. So he heard covers of Paul McCartney songs by folks like Tim and Neil Finn, Robin Zander and Rick Nielsen from the Crowded House. I'm sorry, from Cheap Trick. Tim and Neil Finn from Crowded House. Cheap Tricks, Robin Zander, and Rick Nielsen. The band, Enough, Zenough. And even Death Cab for Cut.

a rarity from Death Cab for Cudy. All that over there at coverville.com. Go listen to it and enjoy today. That sounds great. Paul McCartney, did you got any covers of simply having a wonderful Christmas? I have covers of it. I did not play covers of it on this episode.

Good, because it's the worst thing ever made. Yes, it is. Yes. It's horrendous. There's no question about the truth of that. No, but there are good covers of it out there. Are there? Really.

Yeah. I don't have to be. You know what? Christmas souls are around? you surprise me i will surprise you i think i've played the one i like it's it's by uh it's electronic version by like foster the giant or it's one of those blank the blank bands like everybody seems to want to do now everyone loves the blank the blanks yeah cage the elephant young the giant chance the rapper yep they're running out of names kind of like cars cars are running out of names

i noticed the other day you're starting to see cars called like the wellington or whatever like they're giving them dumb names for cars because we're all out of we don't have any more names. No more cool names for cars. No, they've run out. So they're all stupid. The Sorrento? What is that? A chili pepper? What is that? Lame. All right. First story of the day. Yeah. I like big dogs. I cannot lie. Lost giant dog rolls up to a dollar general store and then refuses to leave. He had had enough. Why? He rolls up. It seems like they didn't need to. To add any other flourish to the headline for this.

Yeah, giant dog doesn't need to roll anywhere, I guess. Lost Dog in Florida decided to cope with the situation via retail therapy. Employees of the Dollar General, which weren't they controversial recently? Because stuff is now like two, three bucks, five bucks there. It's not really a dollar. Probably. Yeah. Something like that. In Bradenton called police this week reporting a giant dog that wouldn't leave.

Florida dog. Florida dog. Let's see. There's now viral Facebook post. It includes body cam footage of the canine lumbering around the store. He's 135 pounds. His name turned out to be Bentley. It's a great name.

Bentley. Has entered the store on his own, spent a couple of hours browsing before it was closing time, and then the staff didn't want to simply turn the gentle giant out onto the street. He had a microchip. Officers were able to track down his owner, and the dog had apparently broken through the gate at home before his attempted shopping spree. He didn't actually shop. He didn't buy anything.

No. Come on, article. He smelled food in there. He wandered around looking for food. Yeah. He realized he didn't have any pockets. Yep. So no money.

And then, you know, got chipped and returned. And then, you know, euthanized and buried. Nope. No, no of that happened. Just kidding. Let's see. Is this video here? That's what Dollar General story goes too far, Dollar General.

Oh, there is a video. Let's see if we can play this. I don't know if it'll do justice on this or not. I mean, it's going to be a dog walking around. There's a guy driving. Convenience store. Oh, it's the cops. Uh, what do you call it?

Body cam. Yeah, they're body camp footage. Body cam footage freaks me out because I always feel like I'm about to see something terrible go down. We've been trained. We've been taught that, you know, that nothing good ever comes from body cam. No. And there's a reason, you know, you always hear about them refusing to give the body cam footage because investigators are like, we need the good footage. And they're like, oh, I'm sure you have nothing to hide then if you're just outright saying no to your body cam footage, which only exists.

the camera on your gut or in your chest only exists to capture what you're doing. So if you refuse to give it to people, why? That drives me crazy. Anyway, look at that giant dog. Always going to the office. Well, come out of there, buddy. Yeah, there we go.

Have you guys added up the till yet? We're not leaving until you sweep the third aisle over there. Until things are equal. I like that dog. He's cute. Yeah, I do like St. Bernard's. You know what we have. we have a listener in the form of H who knows all sorts of cop things.

H, if you're listening, send me an email about body cam footage and why do cops hate them? And if so, why and also why don't they want to turn them in sometimes? Is it just self-preservation? Is it just, is that just the natural thing to do and you've got to make a warrant happen? Like, I don't know. I don't know enough about anything to know. All right. Suspect in a 5,000-acre Arizona wildfire says he was burnt.

burning used toilet paper yeah yeah this is great this is what we want what a shitty thing to do don't you have a few going right now you got some fires or something oh like a few rolls of toilet paper we do we've got one in each bathroom uh yeah I think we don't do we have some wildfires going I think we do because I remember smelling the smoke a few days ago which sucks I feel like you said something to me like maybe wasn't you but somebody was saying Colorado rat outs and I'm like this is not yet it's early it's really early in the season uh let's see here

the fire weather uh avalanche center um is showing yeah let's see small fires in the southwest so normal like stuff normal stuff because usually you always get something in the in this part of our world

but yeah although it's the ones that are like filling your current the ones that fill your sky active fires is Oh, that's a lot. That is. That's one for every... But one of the ones I'm looking at here is, you know, one that got put out eons ago. So they're not good about keeping up their data?

I don't think there's a Wonderland Lake Fire is still going on, but... No, apparently it's active. It's a one-acre fire, 18 miles west-northwest of Denver. Well, all right. Okay. Updated two hours 26 minutes ago, so... There's probably something here, and I don't know about them. They're probably, I know Arizona, well, this one in Arizona we're about to talk about, definitely happen.

A 57-year-old man arrested on suspicion of sparking a 5,000 acre forest fire in Arizona told deputies he was burning used toilet paper Saturday while living in a Cocoa Nino. Coquino National Forest. Is that right? Coconino. Yeah. Coconino. She felt like one if I got it wrong.

It sounded really bad. I don't know why. Coconino. Coconino. The pipeline fire was first reported shortly after 10 a.m. Sunday, roughly six miles off north of Flagstaff, Arizona. I have friends in Flagstaff. Hundreds of Cocasino, sorry, Koko-Nino County residents were ordered to evacuate as strong winds fanned the flames, according to emergency officials.

Anyway, the guy was burning and used toilet paper. He thought that would be the way to do it. It's like, oh, took a dump. Now I need to get rid of this here, toilet paper. I guess I'll burn it. imagine that getting out of hand though oh no no no no I can't stop on it it's my poop they don't say whether that held him back but it probably did it's like you prank you know the the door thing to himself yeah yeah no kidding speaking of pranks and doors oh my gosh

I'm glad you brought this up oh wow what great timing or what great lead in we've had a weird spate of these in our neighborhood not us but others have had door cam footage of people coming up to their doors and doing stuff at like 1.30 in the morning. And one of them is this shotgun kick. I don't know if you've heard of this, but it's teenage idiots doing this. It sounds like something me and my friends may have attempted when we are 16, so I, you know, as much as I want to complain of these kids today, it sounds like something we would have done. But anyway, they run up to the door and they're doing this over in this place that's a 55 and

older community thing. It's like an older folks thing. So they're all in like their average 60, 70s. that live there. So old people middle of the night 1.30 in the morning. You walk up you go bing bong with the button and then you turn around and you horse kick the door as hard as you can. Oh my God. Okay.

So you know like kind of a reverse kick. It makes a sound that sounds like somebody just shot a 44 caliber freaking right from her pistol. It's so loud and so gunshoty and there's just a spade of these. So whatever, warmer weather, kids are idiots. That sort of stuff happens.

But then my friend, Darren, that I was talking about earlier, who we want to swap dude for, um, Darren's not a dude swapper. I just want to, I'm not trying to say that. He's a real good guy. Anyway, not with. They have this footage of a guy out walking his dog at 2 a.m. He's walking his dog past his house. Goes past his house.

I've seen this footage. It's all like done in night vision. So it's even weirder. He passes the house. And then he backtracks, goes up to their porch, grabs the long. cushion from their like lay down kind of furniture that they have on the front porch, they have a big porch. And then the

smaller, one of the smaller seat cushions just takes those and walks away. Then they're like, okay, well, that's weird. He seemed to have some kind of like expensive shoes and he didn't look homeless or something. That's what we thought maybe it was going on. Right, right. Just needed somewhere

to sleep or whatever. But then they found these cushions in the tunnel over by the river that leads to the lake. they were laying there so he must have so the current running theory is this dude who's just some average dude in the neighborhood

got kicked out of the house by his wife oh interesting and then slept slept under the tunnel with his dog that's the only theory we can come up with because we don't know what else is the cause here yeah I was thinking like when you described I thought oh he was he was wanting to do something nice for the homeless

and employed somebody else's cushions to do it yeah yeah basically they got them back though so they're pretty weirded out but this is just a I don't know there's like an uptick in this stuff I don't know if people are just restless maybe it's always like this I don't like to make too much because I don't know I really don't know it's easy to look at and go oh it's worse than ever I don't know exactly it's the burgeoning homeless problem yeah and it may be I don't know but I doubt it in this particular case I think this guy he would have had his shoes stolen and sold by now because he had really nice shoes on I think I would just, if they've got that nice little setup on their porch, with the nice cushions, I would just sleep there. Just sleep there and leave it like four. Yeah. Exactly.

Get up before things turn on for the day. Darren goes to CrossFit in the morning, but he doesn't leave it, you know, 2 o'clock in the morning. You'd have been fine. Right. And what's he going to do? So like, hey, get out of here. Okay, sorry. kicked out of the house.

Bye. Darren would scare me if I didn't know him because he's like ex-Nabby, big guy, does CrossFit, just a big monster. He's a total teddy bear. the sweetest guy. He's an intimidating looking Darren? Yeah. He's just saying? Yes. He's very intimidating. If you don't know him. Once you know him, he's the sweetest dude you've ever met. Like, literally just like you want to hug him and he'd hang out. He loves

Star Wars. He's just the nicest guy. Oh, cool. Yeah. But if he saw him and didn't know him, you go, ah, we're going to die today. He looks scary. Jeez. He may hear this. I don't know. All right. Here's a, oh, we got a big we got a big fish and a dildo story. You ready? Great. This sounds

like the lead into a joke, right? this the start of a really weird episode of A fish walks into a fascination. There you go. Wait, what is that? Is that a thing? What's fascination? That's a store.

I thought there was a national chain of like sex toys and stuff like that. Oh, I don't know. Maybe we have them. I don't know. Someone looked that up. We got one of those in Utah. Sure. Pretend you've never heard of it.

I really have never heard of it. We have one here called. What is this browsers you keep mentioning? I really didn't know what that was either. I do now. But I knew what a, or we have a place called the Blue Boutique, but I don't think that's national I think that's just a local place

and then we had one more called the French connection which is no longer there that was there in the 90s yeah and it had nothing to do with car chases or you know whistle whistle 34 says

Brian only shops for sex toys at national chains well yeah because then I can take it back to any other store I don't have to go specifically to that store that's right duh that's right

when he returns them all because that's what he does right yeah exactly get to them I return Yeah, get them, use them for... Use them, and then take them back. We used to call that the seven-day return at a game style or software, et cetera.

You could play it, buy a game, play it for seven days, take it back before the seven days or up, they give you a full refund. That's right, exactly. That's the same deal. Well, all right, big fish ate a dildo. This is what happened. An Indiana man's routine fishing trip with a friend turned into anything but ordinary after the pair learned what was inside of a catfish they had just reeled in a big old adult toy.

Richard Kezer, Kayser, Keezar, something like that, wanted to take his friend John Hoop. His last name is Hoop. That's great. Out on the Ohio River near Lawrenceburg, so Hoop could catch his first big blue catfish, according to the local news channel. Hoop caught a catfish, making it the first catch of the day. Then Hoop and Keizar noticed that the fish had a larger than normal stomach, but I didn't think much of it because they often swallow other fish, turtles, other animals, that kind of thing. I've actually seen that. I opened a fish.

I caught once and I had another fish in. So I get it. They kept fishing, catching a few more and felt the fish, or saying, felt the fish, and noticed that it was inside was too hard to be another fisher animal. It's just too hard. You know? So once Kezer got home to his wife and three-year-old daughter, they cut that fish open. Then they immediately sent the daughter to bed.

Get out of here, kid. Yeah, right. We decided to cut it open and we found a foam ball, part of a fish, and the other object. The other object. Fish was about this big. It was a master cat. Anyway, we decided to open up,

and there was the other thing inside a foam ball, part of another fish, and a phallic-shaped sex toy. So, yeah, next time you're fishing. Yeah. I mean, what probably, see, this is where things go raw for me. If I start to think about the story of how it got there,

yes that's trouble because what this means is somebody tossed a freaking ding-dong into the lake when they no longer had a use for it or whatever that's weird right that fish said oh a smaller fish gulp oh that wasn't a fish well nothing i can do now fish don't really throw up so i'll just keep this in here but now why am i the most popular fish in the pond yeah why does everybody want to be near me uh yeah did that guy eat the fish probably not He doesn't say, he doesn't get into it. I don't think you could eat that fish. Look, I love catfish.

Fried catfish is one of the greatest things man has ever done with nature. But I don't think I could eat a dildo fish. I don't think I could do it. I mean, I'd like to say I could, but I really don't think I could. All right, we're going to take a break. When we come back, it's time with Bill. It's time with Bobby. It's a good time for all.

But to do that, we got to play a song. So, Brian, could you play a song? I could. I could, Scott. I could. And I will. Okay. We're going to play a song by a band called Telanova. I feel like these guys are either New Zealand or Australian, because they're touring all over Australian, New Zealand this summer, to promote their brand new EP, which is called Stained Glass Love. This is, boy, this is a good description right here. widescreen pop music, cinematic and scope and ambitious in design,

despite the sweeping sonics and muffled club beats offering escapism of the higher order, enchanting frontwoman Angeline Armstrong's lyrics are drenched in real world pain. Private universe is nestled within the sleek musical bands. Whoa, whoa. That's intense. I love the writing of press releases for bands. They're pretty great. Here's my description.

I like this and I want to play it for you. Here's the song, Haunted by Telanova. One, two, three, go. Draw me in with your incantation. Am I a sinner or saint? Find my love in the darkness till the shadows take your place. So my soul for a glimpse of beauty. I feel booming my own.

But now a fantasy with us solely losing all its charms Oh, faith I keep giving you up until I feel like cooling under my skin I'm haunted by you lately Oh, it's never enough And I'd be craving is pulling me in I'm haunted by you Give my blood for a taste of heaven, but now it's bleeding me dry.

I see the light in a fleeting moment till it blinds my eyes. Oh, faith, I keep giving you up until I feel like crawling under my skin. I'm wanted by you maybe. Oh, it's never. nothing now your craving is boiling me in i'm haunted by you so hit me again i'm haunted by you slowly pull me me into your dark cathedral You'll hold me Go on and take my hand and leave me up to the altar

Whisper word so sweetly The moon is shining bright and the candles burning Familiar safe in the mind And then you draw the knife and dance with me softly Darling pierce it through my heart Oh, faded, I keep giving you up until I feel like crawling under my skin. I'm haunted by you lately. Oh, it's never in the laughing now the craving is pulling me in.

I'm haunted by you. So help me again. I'm haunted by you lately. When I'm haunted by you there. I'm haunted by you. So hit me again. I'm haunted by you lately. So hit me again.

I'm haunted by you. When Sally Gasco and her mother bring guests home for a late snack after a move, movie, they have something special in the way of a sandwich in mind. Sally calls it Tuna Rare Bit. Let's watch how she makes it. No wonder you guys never talk. The morning stream. No Dicks here.

Yeah, except the fish. Hey, Brian, remind me who that was. Sure, it's only been three and a half minutes, Scott. That was haunted by the band Telanova from their brand new EP, brand new, just came out called Stained Glass Love. Go see him if you're in Australia or New Zealand. Yeah, that sounds all right. Okay, we are now going to bring Bill in. Okay, all right, good, because I have a question just for Bill.

Yeah, well, he's punishing his props. Takes a moment out with us. Like a catfish. Like a catfish. Punishing that prop, yo. Check it out. Your bat caves open there, Bill. Hey, look who it is.

It's Bill Duran, our old pal from the Pacific Northwest, and the home of PunishedProps.com. He's a maker, and he's a shaker, baby. Bill, what's going on? How are you on this Tuesday? Doing fan. I got a trip coming up here. Oh, do you now? In the show, next week.

Oh, you will be gone. Oh, you were already, actually, last week you went somewhere. You went to some con or something. I saw pitchers. What did you do? You went to like a... We had a little convention here in Washington SummerCon. I stopped by for...

Say hi to some friends. Yeah. Fressed up as a Ghostbuster. Yeah, you looked like a proper Ghostbuster. I wasn't afraid of no ghosts when I saw you. Did they say, who are you going to... Who are you going to call Bill? I got a lot of those, actually.

Oh, you did? Walk around in public, dressed as a Ghostbuster. People will yell at you. Yeah. But you had your... Did you wear your fancy new backpack you made? Yeah. I was going to say my proton pack has...

a button that just plays the Gus Buster theme stuff. Whenever anyone would say, who are you going to call? I just hit that button and it started playing the theme song. You have to pay what's his name? Any royalties for that? No. No. I think he was name. What's his name, Brian? And you don't say, hey man, Bustin makes me

feel good. Yeah, Bustin makes me feel good. All right, hey, real quick, Brian has a question for you that we have to get out of the way. I do. Yeah, so eagle-eyed viewers who are watching the stream might notice that next to my my captain america's shield there's a vacant spot because sometime over the weekend the uh one of the little arms holding up my um my 3d printed mulener broke and now my moulner is in two pieces no two piece mulener like uh it's just like what uh what hella did in yeah oh she's such a butthole okay so what she is

So you're like, how are you going to hook that back up? I guess that's the question. You can see the 3D printed honeycomb pattern inside there. You can see the 3D printed honeycomb pattern inside there. My thinking, and here's I'm going to run by you, is that I take a drill and I drill out the same size hole in both of these. And I put either a dowel or some PVC pipe for the thickness or the depth as far as I can drill. it to connect these two and then use like a gorilla glue or something like that to fill in from because otherwise just straight glue is not going to do this right because it's it's lost

it's you know even if I glue this thing it's not going to be strong enough to keep this thing yeah you definitely definitely want to add some sort of support a PVC pipe is a great idea a threaded rod like a steel rod you could get at the door that would work and then I would just he's like a five-minute epoxy. Okay. Probably. Yeah. Did he say epoxy?

I think he said epoxy, didn't he? Apoxy. It's like a gorilla glue. There's that glue that like, that foams up when you add water to it. That's like gorilla glue, right? Yeah. That stuff sticks to everything. It really does.

Like it, I think actually that's what's holding the two halves of Mielner together because this is a, this is two pieces right here. Those guerrilla people aren't, they're not the same people to do the glass. right that's a different thing gorilla glass no they do have gorilla tape which is like the best duct tape oh my gosh that sounds amazing i'm gonna give you some gorilla tape screw ducts can go quack their so oh it's not ducked oh okay anyway hey bill i'm lucky like with all my little arcade machines there like my new wave toys arcade machines i'm really fortunate that it didn't break something on the way down because this thing this has some this thing it has some weight to it yeah maybe your other items were worthy, and they could handle it.

I don't know. Clearly, my IKEA wall panel was not worthy. Yeah. Clearly. Anyway, well, all right. So, Bill, you're going on this trip? Another con or something? Or what do we go?

No, I'm going to go see my family. And my brothers have boys for kids. So there are five boys between the ages of four and eight, and we are going to do a creative product with them. So excited. Yeah. That sounds awesome. I love Uncle Nephew.

business. It's great. Nothing, nothing like it. My mom. Sorry, you keep cutting out. I think you got that Wi-Fi thing from last week still. Oh, no, my modem is actually going to go today. That's another stuff, is replace

your modem? Yeah, why not? I think that's the cable, it's the problem. It must be. So, it's funny you showed your Mielner that we're going to make with the kids. is little foam hammers for the boys to run around with.

Nice. I figured it was a good idea foam hammer. They're going to put each other in the head with won't make. So make it out of foam. They can't hurt each other too much. That's a good idea.

We just bought Van, I guess we got it on Amazon, but they have a whole package of foam swords. You can just buy for like 10 bucks. There's like 15 swords in there. That dude's in heaven right now. He's just swinging at everything, probably too much.

You know, we've put a little bloodlust in them, I guess. I don't know what's going on. But no, this is great. So, yeah, I assume all of your foam smithing will come to bear here a little bit. Definitely a little different kids. They're between the ages of four and eight. Lots of adult supervision, no power tools, no toxic clue. Probably no hot unless an adult is in charge of that.

Yeah. No sharp knives and something that we can finish in a ton of time. Yeah. and you're there you're just there for the weekends that the plan or something like that oh we'll be there for a few days all right that's nice that's great old uncle bill with his cool skills and uh making his foam shit is awesome what a great we're a rad thing for those kids that's great yeah i hope that's the that's what they get out of it um so i'm building these kits these i'm going to make pre-make them with uh double-sided it tape on it so they're

off to glue it they can just peel the tape off together and that then let them paint it. They can just go nuts. They can paint it however they want. And that's the best part. They can personalize it. That doesn't have to look anything like the real mule. They can just have fun with it.

And then each one of them has their own thing. And which is important. And I thought about making each one of them an event. But that would be the favorite and they would all fight over it. Yeah, you don't want that. That's the hard thing with kids is they all have their own. Well, they're going to just say no fair. He got whatever.

So you got to try to figure out. It's like video game balance. You got to figure out how to give this kid the sword and this kid the hammer. And somehow Hammer and Sword Kid are both happy with what they got. And I'm hoping that if they want something fancy about their hammer, they can just do that. They can paint it themselves. I also have a bunch of self-adhesive foam and like glue and stuff that they can use to fancy it up all they want. Nice.

Yeah. I'm excited. You're now the cool uncle. for sure. I hope so. That's what I'm going for. Yeah, you should document some of this so you can show people off what cool stuff you made. That'd be cool. Inspire a new generation, Bill. That's your goal.

That's what we're going. That's what we're going. All right, very nice. Well, I can't wait to see back how all that stuff goes. In the meantime, do you have a bonus link that you'd like to get this? I do. Yes. So, video from Peter Strip, S-T-R-I-P

is his link. If you look him up on YouTube, he decided to go get a buzzlight your toy fly. Yeah. Hold on, where is it? Here we go. This is great. Oh, my God. I love the fact that he's got a little video

attached or a little camera attached to this thing. Wow. Wow. Holy cow. Is that the right way to open a toy box? He's like using a blow torch to open a... Makes more more fun video, Brian. You got to you know... Oh, yeah.

Let's see what I find that. Oh, that's great. Yeah, they had to adjust his wings, his Little Wings are a problem, and then they had to add a little bit of propulsion. I'll let you watch the video to see what they use. I guess a little propulsion propulsion is... Like Estes or rockets or whatever these things are. Oh, no, these are fireworks. Oh, God.

This is great. Oh, he's falling over. This guy, you know, blow torch for everything. This guy is going to... These are going to be evidence at some point. This guy... Like, he's making content. Pretty soon he's going to be...

responsible for setting forest fires with his burned up buzz light year. Can you imagine the 9,000 acre fire was started by a toy from Toy Story? Exactly, yes. And they'll question bills and accessory to murder. No, that's not true. Anyway, that looks awesome. Go check it out. It is Peter Sripple, S-R-I-P-O-L.

And that video's got a lot of views. Oh my gosh, look at his, his, his, workshop is like Oh yeah He's a chaos monster He is Yeah this is like This guy is

Mayhem in the YouTube channel Yeah I kind of like it I like the energy I'm getting off this dude It's pretty great Bill have a wonderful week I guess we won't see you next week He should be doing this good work

For the next generation of makers But we're going to miss you I wish you nothing but safe travels And we'll talk to you soon Well thanks Bye now Oh his internet's bad I know so rough

You had to really, like, it was all a context, right? Like, we had to intuit. It's like listening to my brother, Matt, speak English. It's, you just need to intuit a bunch of it. You just have to. The words before and after to figure out what, uh. Yeah, it's the only way. All right.

Uh, well done. Hey, how about this? How about, uh, how about it? How about a bobby? That's pretty good. I should go find those clips. Go find, uh, see if Veronica will record a new one saying, How about a Bobby?

I'll bet we could get her to. Her and I haven't talked in a while. It's time. It's time for some friendship dues. All right. I'm going to play this, though. Science. It is science.

And Bobby's here to talk about some of that science. It's Bobby Frankenberger all the way from the beautiful American South. joins us each Tuesday. And we talk about some science of one sort or another. Hello, Bobby. Welcome back. Thank you. It is beautiful in the American South.

It is. I love it down there. Except, well, you have great. food. All right. I'll give you that. You got your, you got these maiter bugs,

I call them. It's not the right word. Maiter bugs. In the spring. Are they on tomato plants? No, they feature the film cars? No, they're mating in the air while they fly.

Oh, those flying ant things. Oh, we call them hair bugs. Oh, well, I call them a mouthful of protein because when I was down there and on a bike or something, if you didn't, if you forgot to close your mouth, you would get six or seven of these bugs in mid-coitus

and you just eat them and there was no way around it. It was awful. And they're slow moving so it's not like they're zipping too fast or whatever. They're just like floating and they just they're fast on their own but when they're mating they're just hovering and it's nasty.

Pops and recline says that's the other thing is love bugs. People all over call them love bugs but yeah we call them hair bugs here. Why hair bugs? They're getting your hair? They're in your hair. No. Well, only the people with long hair hear that. Not mine. Yeah, not Brian. Brian gets bird poop. That's it he gets. Yes, that's what I get. Well, Bobby, it's good to have you back. What are we talking about today? What's going on? Well, before we get to what I'm going to talk about, I wanted to tell everybody that I've been, remember, I told you I was going to start streaming some video games.

Yeah. And I started doing what I said I was going to do. I'm streaming Rim World. Oh, Rim World, right. I saw your post last night. I meant to pop in and see how it went. That's a game I can't get my head around. It's got a steep learning curve. So I looked up a bunch of guides to get started. And once you get started, it's not too bad. But we made a world with a bunch of characters of people from the Frog Pants Network, people with like 18 different people all over the world.

And you set it up and you start with three. and then you'll slowly encounter and find other people and hopefully have them join your colony. And it's been fun so far. We've got, we started off with just me and the two of you who landed on this island or this planet. And we were trying to make things work, building things. And Brian, you started the drama first actually. Of course. Yeah, that sounds about right.

You're an early riser. You don't sleep as much as the other people. That's actually accurate. I tried to accurately make these people as to my ability. And there's a trait called, I can't remember what it's called, but basically it makes it so that you don't need as much sleep. But you would get up. We were a one-room place.

You'd get up and you'd start turning rocks into bricks in the middle of the room where we were all sleeping and that caused some drama because we weren't too happy about that. Right about the noise, sure. I get it. But anyway, we got a bunch of stuff. We found Tom Merritt, Bo Schwartz, joined us. Oh, wow. Amy Frost.

Amy Frost is funny because she tried to attack our colony first. Oh, geez. And we had to stop her and try not to kill her and then convert her. You should have done it. She's a happy member of our group now. But anyway, it's twitch.com. It's twitch.com, TV slash Bobby Franks, if you want to ever see me doing that. spend fun. Good. I'm going to come watch

when you stream that game because I want to understand it more. I feel like it's this crazy overwhelmingly positive reviews since it came out. Everybody raves about it and I just, I have it but I launch it and I just go, I don't know what I'm doing. It's overwhelming at first. You have to set up. It's one of these

types of games where there's a lot of like planning and setup before you can, because it's all simulation, right? You don't directly control anything. Yeah. So isn't it basically, it's dwarf fortress but like a modern, more modern take on it's like a yeah it's a more modern version of dwarf fortress it the graphics aren't that much better i guess it's but uh but they are better and and it's that is the one thing that

throws me is it so damned ugly uh i wish somebody cartoony so so rim world is more cartoony than than dwarf fortress was yeah um because that game was like it was like asky art when it first came out right yeah oh yeah it was very very old very ugly um and and i don't know rim world's while an improvement is still pretty freaking ugly. However, why couldn't they just skin this thing, man? It's like meeples. You got a little meeple running around. I wish they could skin it like a modern

game or something, but whatever. Well, there are a lot of, I mean, if you get on Steam, there's a lot of, I think that might be the only place you can get it. There's a lot of mods for it, right? In the Steam Workshop. That's true. Somebody's probably done an overhaul graphic mod or something. I always like those. Well, all right, now you're

now you're making me tempted to try it again. Well done. Well done. You just have to look up a guide. That's all I did. It taught you how to get started. I'm not here to just talk about that. I just wanted to let people know that I was doing it. I don't have a regular schedule.

So just follow Twitch.combe-Franx, and I'll let you know when I'm coming on. All right. But I've got kids in a life and stuff. Sure. I'm not trying to make a living out of this. Anyway, I wanted to talk about traffic. Oh, sweet. Traffic and weather on the nines with Bobby Franks.

Traffic science. Yeah, there is a lot surprisingly of traffic science which makes sense if you think about it because traffic and the flow of traffic is sort of like the lifeblood of a city, right? The city lives and dies on how well

traffic can flow through it. And if traffic can't flow smoothly through a city, it's hard for it to grow and if it's going to grow and get more and more people then it needs to be able to move people through it very easily so there's all ever since the 30s when really when when cars started to be really really common people have been studying traffic and so I was doing some research on this because I'm going to talk about it on one of the episodes I record tonight with Mora for the podcast

and as I was researching it all I thought it'd be fun to talk about some of this and in particular I wanted to talk about something called phantom traffic jams oh no no no no No. Is it when an old lady rubbernecks because there's a wreck and, oh, no, now everything's slow? So there's a lot to? It's an old radio show. Ah, my Morris Minor just stopped for the cars. Welcome to this week on Phantom Traffic Jams. There you go. Wow. That was something.

Yeah. So basically, have you ever been on the interstate driving and, and every. Everything seems to stop, and then you're slowed or stopped for a while, and then it starts up again, and you never saw anything. Oh, yeah, all the time. I hate that. Nothing. There seemed to be nothing there. That is a phantom traffic jammer.

They call them phantom bottlenecks as well. And did you ever think that you knew? Like, I used to think there must have been an accident that I've just missed. Oh, yeah, no, I was always sure. Or maybe they just cleaned it up right as I got to the end of it or something like that. Well, I saw a video, like, for a while, there was this viral. video going around talking about if you follow somebody too close

and then they like tap on their brakes and their brake lights come on, you stop, you probably stop more and cause this new slowdown and then all of a sudden it just has this ripple effect on creating this you know, this place where everybody stops

for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Right. Right. You've kind of nailed what happens with these phantom traffic jams. So in general what you're describing is right when someone especially on a high speed

road like the interstate highway or freeway you know when you're following close behind someone if you press on the brakes then the person behind you has to press on the brakes a little bit more

because of the because of the reaction time delay right so they they're going to If they were to press the brakes at exactly the same time as you, they could theoretically press it for exactly the same amount of time as you did because then you'll both stop. But they don't. So they have to slow down more quickly and press it harder, which then causes the people behind them to have to do it even harder than them and so on and so forth. And it causes a ripple, like you said, but they call it a shock wave down the line of traffic. And if there's enough, if there are enough vehicles on the road and the, and there are enough vehicles on the road and the,

following close enough to each other, which if you have a lot of vehicles on the road, face it, they're all going to be pretty close to each other. Then that shockwave can go far enough back to where it stops traffic. And then the reverse will eventually happen once that first car accelerates again, then the next car behind it, the shockwave goes in reverse and there's an acceleration shockwave, right? and so that's why you have this experience where you seem to be slowed a lot or even stopped and then nothing was there and it's just because some some idiot was it probably isn't the person who stopped or slowed down actually it's likely the person who is following too close yeah absolutely the um yeah for a while i was when i still try to be conscious conscious of it that you're the ideal way to keep this from happening you is to not necessarily don't follow too close obviously don't don't tailgate but to maintain equal distance between the car in front of you and the car behind you so if they come up you come up

a little bit more and but i don't know if that's really true so i'm i'm hoping that you explain that so so when that viral sort of video that you were talking explanation that was going around it's a good way to say to a viral explanation because there were a lot of people making videos and stuff about this a little while back, that was based on some research that was done modeling traffic and computers and AI algorithms and everything. And they did find, you're right, that if in the algorithm you programmed in where all the traffic tried to keep equal distance between the car in front of them and the car behind them, then that minimized the effects of these shockwaves.

And it makes sense because if the car in front of you is far enough in front of you, then when it presses on its break, you have time to react. You don't have to press on the break as much. Or maybe you don't have to press on the break at all. Right. Right. Because you have time to react. But if you're too close and it's not. So they did find that. And that's how they programmed it was keeping equal distance in front of you and behind you. It's very hard to do that with other people on the road. But if everyone were to change their behavior in the way that they think about things and just try to keep, you know, a certain amount of distance between you and the car in front of you. If everyone's doing that, then naturally it would mean that the car's

behind you would be a good distance away as well, right? Presumably, sure. Yeah. So that's the best way to avoid that situation. You're right. But it's also, bottlenecks in general are just caused by this human- error and slowing down. Whatever situation happens on the road that causes slowed traffic. You know how when you're on the interstate and one car in one of the lanes is going really slow, right?

Yeah, my favorite. That can also cause a problem. You might think, well, everybody could just go around that person, but it effectively turns a It effectively reduces the number of lanes by one, having one person there, because if everybody's moving, if one lane of traffic is slower, then you can think about, like, if everybody's trying to move past it, that's, you can almost think about that slow lane as not being an effective driving lane, right? Because people are trying to move through, move faster than that, right? Right. And so what ends up happening is someone gets close behind that person. everybody does it right you you you don't want to change lanes so you do end up following too close behind that person because in your head you're thinking they'll see me yeah yeah right they'll see me get really close and they'll get out of the way i'll chase them out of my lane yeah right exactly but that doesn't happen so you get behind the person and then you and then you want to go around them or even if the person does get out of the way it still causes a lane change and lane changing causes people to press

on brakes, and pressing on the brakes causes this shockwave, right? This is why we need automated cars sooner than later. Yeah, yeah. That is absolutely, I think, one of the benefits that will happen from self-driving cars is that they'll be able to... But everybody's got to

do it, right? Right, exactly. There have to be a lot of self-driving cars for that time, because that's another thing in the research I was doing is that you would think that self-driving cars will end up reducing traffic congestion, right? Because even in cities, self-driving cars will find like the most optimum path and it might not be the shortest path right but it'll be

the fastest one yeah it'll reduce overall congestion but they actually found that if only part of the cars on the road are autonomous driving cars autonomous vehicles it actually for the short term until enough until you reach a certain threshold it increases traffic congestion and it's because both the drivers on the road and the algorithms in the in the the AI of the cars all are trying to compensate for each other so so as an AI programmer you have to put into the code some sort of an understanding that some of the people on the road are not going to be automated drivers right so you have to so it'll it'll drive slower and more carefully than it could if everything on the road was autonomous, right?

Right. So that ends up slowing things down. Traffic is so complicated. It's going to be weird. I'm going to think about this when I'm on the road next. I don't know if this is good or bad, but next time I hit any kind of snag of traffic, this is all I'm going to think about is the science of it,

because it's going to drive me nuts. Because I'm going to know that we are all falling to these moments of, like, what we think is, oh, must be a wreck in front of us, Or that lady moved too quick. Or I hit the brakes because that guy's blinker's been on for too long. Or whatever. Like all these little things. And I'm going to know that we're all contributing to this slowdown because we're stupid.

And it's going to bug the crap out of me. The worst part is that when you start to think about this and you realize that, you'll realize that you are always and still part of the problem. You can't not be part of the problem unless everybody changes their behavior, you know? Yeah. Because we're all just part of this one collection. like fluid of traffic um and so your change your individual changes is is is very small and doesn't make a lot of a difference because you're just you're just one tiny speck of a car yeah

you're a tiny you're you're you're an atom in the overall you're what are you you're one organ in a big complicated body how about that yeah yeah yeah that's not bad yeah you're one little tiny, meep-a-looking guy in your game of the thing you're playing. His name I just forgot for some reason. Rim world. Rim world. Yeah, you're one rim and a world. How about that?

Yeah. Interesting. So, I don't know if you've said this, but what inspired this topic? Like, what were you thinking about? Were you in the car? Like, that's happening. Yeah. Spending a lot of time driving.

Yeah. It's the summertime. We've got to visit family, and I'm always thinking about, it might, surprise you to know that I'm always thinking about science. So when I'm driving, I do think about this a lot. I've actually wanted to do a thing on the show about traffic for a long time, but it's kind of hard to do a feature on traffic without just listing like, here's a bunch of cool sciencey facts about traffic. And I like things to be a little bit more cohesive when we do it. But tonight we're doing like recording a double episode because of scheduling stuff. So we're

recording two episodes in one night, so one of them is just going to be me talking about, because I don't have time to prepare two whole things in, anyway. Yeah. That, you don't care how I plan the thing. What, um, what you care about is that it won't be this Monday, but the next Monday will be the episode that comes out, uh, with talking about traffic. We're going to, we're going to, I'm going to talk about more than just this, uh, these phantom traffic jams to, what causes traffic inside a city as well,

things that like the length of city blocks and the timing of green lights and all sorts of things. How to improve traffic. What people are doing to try to figure that out and you always got to throw in traffic stats. Stats are, we love stats on science shows.

Wow. Wow. All right. Cool. Fantastic. You want more? All around science, baby. I like this kind of stuff.

It doesn't always have to be about, you know, like you do a lot of really important coverage. Like, well, we talk about climate changes. What does it mean? Or we're talking about COVID. What does it mean? But this is like, hey, also, here's an everyday thing you don't think that much about. Why not understand it better next time you're out there on the road? Yeah, that's what we like to do.

Because on our podcast, all around science, we just love science in general. and so sometimes we just get geeky about science-y stuff, right? Before I go, I did need to make sure I announced that we just yesterday launched our Patreon. I feel weird promoting something like that on someone else's social, so I'm not going to spend a lot of time talking about it. If you like our show already, you'll hear about it, but I wanted to let everybody know that they can find that. And, but in conjunction with that, we launched a Discord community server,

so you can find that also go go do that everybody because bobby's there for you he's your frank he's your frank and your burger okay you'll you'll have a cool show to listen to while you're in traffic and understand why you're in traffic yeah and then you'll feel less less inclined toward road rage perhaps you know no you it'll make you angrier I will right because it's that person right there you all like everyone thinks my wife is all sweet and nice and kind and she is is, but you put her behind a wheel and somebody does something dumb in the lane next to her, you will see a different human being. And I don't think I want her to hear this, because it'll just make her matter.

The other day, double bird had her elbows on the wheel, double birded the other guy. F you, buddy. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. I love that she still steers with her elbows, like, just to give somebody the finger. It's not like, nope, one finger hand on 10 and 2. Yeah, she is not one to be messed with on the road. She's not proud of it, but she gets really pissed at other drivers.

Put that on TikTok, Scott. I know. I really should. Why am I not? Why am I not? I'm sitting right next to her. I'm not driving. I may as well film it.

That's what I'm a deal. All right, Bobby, always a pleasure. All around science, everybody, go find it. We will see you soon. Like next week, probably. Bye now. Yeah. See you.

Thank you, he says. Thank you. Thank you. All right. Let's get to the dregs of the show, but not the dregs in a bad way, not in a negative way. Oh, gosh, I know. That sounds such a good. negative tone. Yeah, it has a pejorative tone

to it, but it doesn't because this is where we play a mashup. This is called TMS mashup Doja Cat S-P-T. This is an SPT, which is or Dojo Cat. Scott pronounces things. Scott pronounces things, you're right, which explains the dojo cat.

Dojo Cat. By the way, I really like her duet with Post Malone on his new album. This is so ironic. Like Post Malone his songs are, you know, kind of all over the place, but it's not really kid-friendly most of the time. And Doge Cat, for sure, her music is absolutely not kid-friendly. But those two get together, and they made the most wholesome song on any of his albums.

It's the sweetest song about just having a friend who's a girl, but it doesn't have to be more than that. Just a friend I like to shop with and hang out with. And it's this silly little, I don't know how to explain it. It's really odd. I don't know that song, so I'm going to have to go listen to it. You're going to have to check it out. It's a pretty good. The whole album's pretty good.

But anyway, here we go. Here is that mashup from TMS mashups. On Jamie, enjoy. Just an early get-you-wet kind of, yeah, wet your whistle. I'm wet. Thank you. Bum plug.

So we all know about this Gisillane Maxwell. Gailene Maxwell. Is it Gellane? Yes. It's not Gis-Lane. I know, but Gis-Lane is great. It's pretty good. start calling her Gis Lane.

Yeah, I think Gis Lane might be the appropriate deal. And Chris, Chris, Chris, Wala cacottis, Walla cacottis. Not an extra Kahn. Wallachatis. Wallachatatis. Damn, hey, you have me doing it. Wallachatus. Kardashian made the promise that we fully believe she'll keep.

The brunette broody, booty, booty, beauty. All of which are correct. Yeah, I guess every one of those variations. The broody, booty, beauty. The 400 has been identified as Sandeep Turkum, Pawa Mangesh, Janitar, Janathar, Jandatar, Kamatarktakar, and Ashki-Sun-Nol. We're giving out their names here on GMS. That's fine. If we could pronounce them.

Yeah, it's not even a good doxing. It can't say these names, right. Here's another word I've never known how to pronounce anise or anise or whatever. You're saying anus. Yeah, right. You boil your peanuts with licorice flavor. So you're saying boil your peanuts. genus in an anus. Is that what I heard?

That's exactly what I said. Both holes. Chanita Kudram, I'm going to say. Sure. Shot Buccini Moostin. Oh, let's go Boon Chooey. Boon Chooey, Mooseeton. Okay, yours is better. I like Boon Chui.

Boon Chui. That's like a buffed chewy. The case was taken to the Indian Penel Penal Court. Sorry, not Penal. It's penal. Come on, yeah. Perfect opportunity to push that penal court. When I just spent the last two minutes trying to pronounce a bunch of Indian names, nothing else looks right now. It's all wrong.

This is good. Yeah. This is good. Yeah, just don't keep going to like new ones like Dojo Cat and some of these guys. It's all vaginas all the time. That's all it is. Dojo Cat. It ended up being a few minutes of a Troja Cat?

Sorry, Doja Cat. Doja. I had a few minutes of... She's teaching karate to Johnny Lauren. Feline kitty karate. I mean, very excited. I can't figure out why I enjoy more. Our old age or our whiteness.

I can't figure out. There's something. We got a little film sack in there. Yeah, a little film sack. Dunway's quips, probably the best things on film sack. They're really hard to reproduce. He's very good at it. Anyway, there you go.

Thanks, Jamie. That was awesome, as always. And that's it. I want to remind people Tuesdays are for play retrods for old games. Tonight we're talking about the Dreamcast, the Sega that could have been. had things been a little different for them in terms of competition. So we're going to talk about that launch, the best games on that thing, and what the world looks like without a dreamcast today.

Why Sony, really? It destroyed Sega's dreams. Okay, that's what happened. The PlayStation 2 destroyed them. Anyway, that's tonight. Play Retro. We're going to be doing that at 3.30 Mountain Time right here at frogpans. Or on the podcast, whichever way you'd prefer to get it.

Brian, you got anything going on today? You want to mention? No, this is going to be, this week is, is easy for me as far as podcasting, no recording stuff, no, uh, streams, anything like that. I am, uh, writing, training, you know, hey, uh, if you have not contributed yet and you're like, oh yeah, I still need to contribute, uh, plenty of time still. Just go to tiny.combeck coverville 2022. That's tiny.cc slash, all lowercase, bike coverville, 2022. Yep, you're going to help Make him sweat, baby.

I let me sweat. I got to lose control. Something in your booty. I don't know how it goes. I don't either. I made it up. Anyway, so yeah, do that. That would be a really good cause.

Help fight MS with your good riding bike riding pal, Brian Abbott. That's right. Be thinking of you as I ride and as I go across this crazy, crazy state of ours. We need to give a couple of mentions of some patrons real quick. Patreon.com slash TMS is how this show is funded. It's funded by you, the listener. And Sean, Michael Eric, and Dan Wai-Kazoric. Perfect.

I don't think that's right, but, well, Dan is sorry. Wisarek is how I would pronounce it. Wizarek. It's got that C in there. Weisarek. Yeah, I think it's Polish. It's probably origin. Yeah, with a C-Z Polish or Hungarian or Austrian.

I love that the guy with the hardest name, last name to say, has the first name, Dan. You know, Dan. Dan. How do you say your name? Dan. What's your last name? Oh, you really don't want to know. You don't want to know.

Just stick to Dan. Anyway, you guys are awesome. And if you want to be awesome, like Dan, Michael, and Sean, you can sign up today. So head on over to Patreon.com. com slash TMS and hop in before the month ends so you can get this month's benefits. Frogpants.com slash TMS for everything else. If you're trying to contact us, the morning stream at gmail.com. We'll get you there.

And that'll do it for today. Brian, uh, song time. Yeah. We do a song. Yeah. This one's going out to Joshua Hilton, who says, Dear, Sock and Boot, this year marks the end of my 39th trip around this big ball of burning gas we call the sun and the start of my 40th. My birthday falls on a Sunday again this year, therefore I leave the decision of whether to play this on Friday or Monday to the cover master. I would like to request the rock cover of a good country song.

Originally recorded by Mark Wills, I would like to request what hurts the most. by State of Mind. Thanks. There you go. Just sneaking that in. Perfect. It's not well done. Well snuck.

Yeah, Joshua. Happy birthday, Joshua. And yeah, what you left out is that, not big and rich. There was another popular country duo that recorded it. Shoot, and I don't have it in front of me. So let's just say, okay, I'm Mark Wills. Because he was the first person to record it. He was the writer of the track, I believe.

But this is a great version, a great rock version. cool simmering metal take on what hurts the most. This is by state of mind from a single of the same name they released in 2018. Here is, what hurts the most. All right, that'll do it. We'll be back tomorrow with the Wednesday

edition of the show. It feels weird not having a Monday because of the holiday, but whatever. It is what it is. But we'll be here. We've got all the stuff we plan on Wednesday. So come on back then. We'll see you then. I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house That don't bother me I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out

I'm not afraid to cry Every once in a while Even though going on with you going still upset me there are days every now and again i pretend i'm okay but that is not what gives me what hurts the most is being so close and having so much to say and watching you walk away and never know when what could have been and not seeing that loving you is what I'm trying to do It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go But I'm doing it

It's hard to force that smile when I see your friends and I'm alone Still harder getting up getting dressed breathing with this regret but I know if I could do it over I would tread give away all the words that I say to my heart that I had learned and spoken what hurts the most is being so close and having so much to say watching you walk away and never know when you know when What could have been And I've seen that loving you Is what I was saying to do

Ooh What hurts the most is being so close Having so much to sing And watching you walk away And never knowing What could have been I'm not seeing that loving you Is what I was signed to do

And that's what I was trying to. This show. This show is part of the Frog Pants Network. Get more shows like this. Pants.com. Great strength. Piss-ass balance. Yeah.
