You have nothing on me. Oh, I got a lot of shit on you. The morning stream. Don't call me babe. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to TMS.
Starting point is 00:01:15 It's the morning stream for Tuesday, January 24th, 2023. I'm Scott Johnson. That's Brian Abbott. Hi, Brian. Hello. Nice pause for, pause for effect and clarification and confirmation that you've got it right before you go any further. That's right. Pause for effect. pause for correct. See how that works? Correct and effect. My favorite metal band from the 80s. Yep, they were great. I don't know where they are now, but good luck to them. If they look anything like the lead singer for Motley Crew, well, rest and peace.
Starting point is 00:01:44 I'm sorry. We're sorry for that. We're sorry for your Vince Neal looking face. All right. Hey, what's going on, everybody? It's a new show. It's here. It's Tuesday. And it's me and Brian, of course. We're going to have a show. All right? If you were all thinking, you weren't going to have a show. have one. Good news. There is one. Okay? Exactly. If you were worried that, oh, no, they're not going to do a show on January 24th because of St. Mercant's Day. Yep, Mercant's Day. No. No, we don't, we always celebrate St. Merkin's Day on January 24th with an episode. Yeah, don't Google how St. Merkin was killer. I know he's the patron saint of hair down there. Yeah, that's who that guy is. anyway we got a we got a big full one for you today and i want to start things off today with
Starting point is 00:02:33 a phone call okay uh this is a call i got and a voicemail i got that i'm having a hard time deciding whether this is a real person or not so we have to be able to put on our detective hats here okay yeah uh so it's this voicemail i got from this lady and it sounds just like maybe she had the wrong number but something about the message sounds like she's not a human. And I wanted to suss that out. Secondly, I should mention anyway that I edited one part out, which was just the return phone number, because I don't know who they are.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Yeah, you want to dox them. Sure. So let's see how this goes. Here we go. This message is for Sonia. My name is Lisa with Dr. Hulgenson's office at Canyon View Medical. He has placed a referral for a marina. If you would return my call, thank you.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Goodbye. Something about it. She sounds a little robotic. There's places where you think she would take a breath where she doesn't. There's no pause. Yeah, and I didn't edit that. So she is talking. That is how she talks.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Like this part right here, hold on. This message is for Sonia. My name is Lisa with Dr. Hulgenson's office at Canyon View Medical. He has. That right there. Canyon View Medical he has. Like she just goes right in.
Starting point is 00:03:50 View Medical, he has. And that wasn't, that's obviously it's not where you took the phone number out. No. No, that's later at the thing. So Canyon, okay, I didn't do this yesterday. Canyon v. Yeah, I was going to say look up and see if there really is a doctor. The other question is, well, it's the end game.
Starting point is 00:04:06 If it is a scam call, I guess they could be wanting to see if your phone number is real. So if they get you to call the number, they give you thinking you're going to call and say, oh, I'm sorry, you've got the wrong number. There's no patient here by that name or whatever. Sure. Then boom, now they'll all of a sudden get your phone number. Now, here's, okay, so this is a real Canyon View Medical Center or part of the Canyon View Medical Group is located in Springville, Utah. So that's like about an hour south of me.
Starting point is 00:04:40 Let's see. Is the number, you don't have the number that you edit it out somewhere where you can look and make sure. I don't have it. Yeah, I don't have it. I didn't write it down, but let's see. This is an 801 number, so this must be real. All right, maybe it's real. Maybe they just think I'm Maria or something, and I got an appointment.
Starting point is 00:04:59 I don't know. Like, when that happens, am I said, okay, here's another question for you. Let's say this is life-saving medical help. All right. Right, exactly. You owe it to yourself to call and say, hey, there's no, what was the name of the person they were looking for? I forgot. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:05:16 This messages for Sonia. Sonia. Sonia. Sonia. Sonia. Sonia. Sonia. This message is for Sonia.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Doug. You have a dark man. Dead. I mean, I can call in and go, look, I got a wrong number. You guys have the wrong number for this Sonia person. And, you know, you should know that for, you know, in case you need to get a hold of her. You know what, I could even do that right now. Why don't we do this?
Starting point is 00:05:40 Let's just do this. Oh, do it live. No. Yeah, let's do it. Let's do it. I'm going to call her. I'm going to get taken care of. Let's do this.
Starting point is 00:05:46 All right. Here we go. Let's do it. You got to put this number in. All right, here we go. Why am I hearing old-timey music in the background? Yeah, well, yeah, good point. We turn that off.
Starting point is 00:05:57 All right, here we go. Thank you for calling Canyon View family medicine, Springville. To speak with a receptionist, please press 1. All right. I don't know why they're so quiet. It's the same voice. Oh, this is nice. This is nice?
Starting point is 00:06:18 Yeah, my doctor's office, hold music, is the most... Canyon View Pediatrics welcomes pediatrician Sarah Tang. Dr. Tang loves pediatrics. She did her residency at the University of Utah and Primary Children's Hospital, where she had the privilege of caring for children and their families in some of their best and most challenging moments. Fantastic. As a mother, Dr. Tang strives to be the type of pediatrician she would want for her own family.
Starting point is 00:06:44 As a mother. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Tang today. See, there's that thing, that as a mother thing? I hate that. Yeah, but you want. That's actually all support it. You'll allow that one? All right.
Starting point is 00:06:55 Allow that one, yes. All right, fair enough. All right, we may be on hold for a while. Says they're open. If we get one more Dr. Tang thing, I'm hanging up. Oh, yeah. You know, by doing this, they might repeat Sonia's last name. Oh.
Starting point is 00:07:10 When they confirm, like, and you'll have to give a phone number. Wait, I will? Why will I have to give one? Well, maybe you won't. Yeah, I don't have to give them anything. Any few medical group has cared for the communities of South Utah, County since 1957. Our goal is to help make our community a healthy and happy place for all of us.
Starting point is 00:07:31 We happily call South Utah County home. Our staff and providers actively participate in school. There's a coupon for your next visit for pediatric meetings. I'm calling them later. They're lame. They don't pick up. How busy can you be at 924 a.m. in Springville? Come on now.
Starting point is 00:07:50 That's just too much. All right. We're experiencing a high call volume. you, Scott. Sure. Like they always say. Yes. Bram bastards. All right. Well, anyway, there's that. But I have another one. This segment was lame. Oh, fine, Leninade. Oh. The segment was lame. There's no segment. Oh, there's no segment, Leninade. That was all impromptu.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Yeah, this is a bit we had planned for. For weeks. We finally got to pull the trigger on it after all this. some sub-suprofuge. It's a bit for weeks and finally. Yeah, finally we got it out. All right. We have an idea. I don't, I'm a little, I have some logistical questions about how we would do this, but we have an idea from a listener who is on the road.
Starting point is 00:08:39 So listen to this. Hey there, TMS guys. This is James the Trucker. I'm on I-30 between Little Rock and Texarkana. Anyway, I'm listening to y'all talking about how you, you got too much stuff and you need to pair down and you're going to option this and sell that. I had an idea. We used to do fundraisers a lot when I rode motorcycles more,
Starting point is 00:09:05 and TMS Vegas would be a really cool time to do some kind of auction, silent auction, drawing, whatever, raffle for some of the stuff that you don't have tons and tons of money invested in and do a fundraiser for some kind of charity or something. Just an idea. Love the show. I'm always down for charities. Here's the only stinker about this. If we,
Starting point is 00:09:28 one would assume you'd need to have the stuff with you, which means I got to load up a car. You'd have to figure out. You'd probably have to drive for your stuff. I'd have to drive instead of flying. Yep. Which is a 10-hour thing for you, not the easy two-hour flight normally.
Starting point is 00:09:42 And then even if we did it as like, all right, we're bringing lists of things and then these get mailed later. It's just a handful, but it's possible. Logistical nightmare. Maybe we do. a, maybe we don't need to do it at Las, in TMS Vegas, maybe we do a live stream where we each
Starting point is 00:10:01 bring 10 things, 10 things that, that we have that are, you know, it's not like saying, oh, I've got this, uh, uh, logitech, uh, watch, Apple watch charger, but something like, oh, yeah, you know, I've got this, this, uh, signed Batman poster that, you know, I, I just don't have room to hang up anywhere so I'll totally sell it kind of thing sure yeah and I've got stuff like that I mean like I was just talking about those those pop toy thing or the the the funcos like I've got a whole stack of those like untouched unopened freaking things why not that you know so we'll we'll give us some some thought yeah because I always like doing charity stuff too speaking of new Shet yeah so I showed the vision yeah yeah look at that
Starting point is 00:10:52 I have his girlfriend. What? What? I have Wanda. Whoa. She is, she's got a big head. She's running and angry. Well, she's leaning for it.
Starting point is 00:11:06 The Scotty Young stuff always has like kind of big, cheapy-looking heads. Yeah, she's definitely got the Scotty Young head. How are you, so you got two in a row, like just in the mail? Two in the row in the mail, yes. Those were two that, Basically, I looked for them online, found a few on Amazon, sorted by cost and said, all right, what are the two cheapest ones I can get?
Starting point is 00:11:30 And now what's availability? It's like, only three left. I'm like, oh, okay, well, then I'll buy a Scarlet Witch and I'll buy a vision. I actually ended up with two, accidentally end up with two visions and sent one of them back. But, yeah, so I'm just kind of keeping that. Basically, I've got, I've got camel, camel, camel, letting me know when prices drop on any of the other ones I want, because I'm not paying more than, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:53 20, 30 bucks for these, but... Sure. How many are there? Are there, like, a whole set? Almost 50, probably. Like, I've just kind of coming up with a list of them, I came up with about 50. All right.
Starting point is 00:12:07 That you'd like to get? Sure. Why not? Does I want to get? Yep. We haven't even mentioned the fact. We haven't even mentioned the fact that freaking, oh, what's his name?
Starting point is 00:12:16 Modoc showed up in the trailer for the Ant Man deal. Oh, yeah, we haven't talked about that. Like, because that happened, like, on a weekend, and we didn't do a show until Monday. Yeah, Brian's favorite ancillary villain, Modoc. My favorite ancillary villain, like, I love Mysterio. I love Modoc. I'm a fan of King, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:34 But this is not a spoiler, Claire, because it's in the trailer. Yeah. It's in the trailer twice. It's in the trailer twice. Yeah. Benjant says, I sure hope that's not Modoc. it's it's not the modoc we know and love from the comic series it's what's his face from uh ant man in the wasp from the i'm sorry from the first ant men movie when he went when he got you know
Starting point is 00:13:01 shrunk down into the quantum realm the bad guy the bald the bald dude right yeah yeah i like that actor he's actually pretty good he is really good yeah so they're gonna they're gonna rewrite that a bit you know exactly because all right because the original thing was uh aim decides to create a super smart serum they uh try it out on this dude it makes his head super large and that's uh that's how modoc was created becomes evil i mean it's kind of a really pared down version of the modoc backstory but that's
Starting point is 00:13:34 sure and why can't there be more than one version of modoc you know this is its own universe the marvel universe is vast this is earth some number that isn't of other numbers let him be what he's going to be here it's fine we don't mind we don't know we don't know that it's i mean i think this is 616 is it yeah okay oh look at that yeah he's scary a big ass modoc that's a good one though that's the one this is this is you never that's the thing i would never sell or give away nope keep that forever this this stays with me right here and touch it lovingly each night modoc yes exactly yeah have somewhere I have his other face like I can uh this is his like
Starting point is 00:14:15 face and then there I can pop that face out and put in another face oh he has multiple faces it's two faces the two faces of modoc whoa what a two face bastard he is oh look at that's like a mr potato head but in the quantum realm great exactly anyway very nice uh all right we had not oscar nominations this morning everybody it happened we usually like to mention these because it's interesting. I'm a little surprised. There's a lot of good nerd stuff. The very first nomination that Ashley or Allison Williams and Riz Ahmed said was Angela Bassett for Black Panther, Wakanda Forever. Yeah. The first actor nomination. First for a Marvel. For a Marvel. I think it's actor period, right? No. No, Chadwick got nominated for
Starting point is 00:15:06 no not for that did he i think so uh hold on that doesn't sound right did i thought i read this morning it was like oh no it's a big deal it's the first actor nomination for a actor i thought okay you're right i thought chadwick bozman got uh i guess he i mean obviously got nominated for uh yeah good other stuff right for yeah the other the what was that one you recommended he was in the Yes. The singing one. The singing one, and I can't remember what it was. Shoot.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Yeah, I don't remember the name either. I need to watch that still. Yeah. Anyway, it's funny because the way they phrased it on the news today was like, and she's the first actress to get a nomination for a Marvel film thinking, oh, okay, so somebody else from the MCU must have gotten one, but I guess not. Yeah, it's a big deal. I like her a lot.
Starting point is 00:16:04 We're about to watch her in strange days this weekend. She's good in there. Anyway, so everything, everywhere all at once is the leader this time. It's got 11 nominations. Much to Tina's joy. Yeah. People are pretty stoked about that. Oh, Tina isn't.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Oh, Tina's not. Oh, that's right. Tina didn't like it. That's right. She didn't like it. She gave an audible groan when the section of the film that started with all at once. Because you get the everywhere, everything everywhere, and then all. at once as sections of the film and she was so done with it by the time we got to all at once she went
Starting point is 00:16:38 oh yeah well so let's i mean who knows how that thing will do but it's currently leading i mean remember drenched wildfire said the same thing my wife and son went to see everything everywhere all at once yesterday both said it was by far the worst movie they'd ever seen what how is that possible wow you well you need to you need to watch some of the crap we watch for film sack i would I enjoyed it. Does it deserve a best picture nomination? Maybe, but I don't know. I mean, I think Banshee's been sharing.
Starting point is 00:17:16 I mean, it got on, though. Let's go through the best picture list. Yeah, yeah. I mean, will it win? Probably not. I mean, this is, remember Fury Road had 15 or something, and it was, and one of them was best picture, and it didn't win best picture.
Starting point is 00:17:27 So it's entirely possible that the leader of the pack will not win overall anyway. This isn't, I don't think this is an indicator of like who's going to win best pitcher anyway, but anyway, here's your 11 nominations, or sorry, that movie got 11 nominations, what I'm saying. Here are your other nominations. We got, let's see, the most nominations went to that film and then all quiet on the Western Front, a movie that's in my cue, but I've been nervous to click because it sounds depressing. I, like, every time I saw that get recommended to me, I thought, well, geez, yeah, 1930 film, I'll watch it eventually, but. Oh, you didn't know it was a new one. I didn't know it was a new one now
Starting point is 00:18:04 Yeah yeah And it's all German all the time that movie No English I know it takes place in Germany But it's it's American soldiers isn't it No no no German soldiers It's all it's all based on a book About the German
Starting point is 00:18:17 It's German soldiers in World War Two One One sorry one And I think it's told from their perspective And the book is written by Germans as far I think Gotcha.
Starting point is 00:18:32 So it's like, hey, how about the German side for once? I know it's also in the best international film. Surprisingly, and this is going to make Gary from Brooklyn happy, RRR did not even get a nomination for Best International Film. It did get Best Song nomination for Nacho Nacho, but, you know, because it is a dancing musical, as Gary from Brooklyn believes it to be. Yeah, he's sure of it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Let's see. All quiet on the Western Front. Banshees of Innes Sharon with nine each. Both got nine. I think that's deserved, certainly in Banschie's case. Elvis with eight, the Fablemans with seven, Tar and Top Gun Maverick with six each, and Black Panther were kind of forever with five. And all the ones you just mentioned, Black Panther is the only one that didn't get a best picture.
Starting point is 00:19:22 Nom as well. Oh, they figured they got their deal earlier on. Yeah, exactly. But Avatar, the way of water. A triangle of sadness and women talking, rounding out, all the ones you mentioned, rounding out the best picture nominees. Yep. For director, we got Martin McDonough, for Banshees vene Shearin, everything all at once, director, Daniel Kwan, and Daniel Schnerch. Schnerch.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Shinerd. Is it Shinerd? There's an extra set of owls in there. The Fableman, Steven Spielberg, Tarr, Todd Fields, and Triangle of Sadness, Ruben, Ostland. Yeah, no best directing nomination for James Cameron, which surprised a few people. I don't know. I don't feel like you get it for your big computer movie. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:12 You know, like, did he get, he got nominated for, and won, I think, for Titanic, didn't he? I know the movie did, but did he. Pretty sure he got best director that year. Yeah, I think he did too. Let's see. Best actor in leading role, Austin Butler and Elvis. He's your Elvis in that. Colin Farrell in the
Starting point is 00:20:31 Banshees of Innes Sharon Almost said Daredevil It's weird My brain almost like Daredevil Oops Let's see Brennan Frazier for I want an effin costume
Starting point is 00:20:41 I never miss Brandon Frazier Or Brendan Fraser rather For the Whale Which I thought would be more All over the place in here But it's just the one Just yeah that and
Starting point is 00:20:54 A supporting actress I think I should have done Practical effects for that one too because they made him like huge. No kidding. Paul Muscal for Afterson and Bill Nye for Living. I love that guy. I wouldn't be sad if he won and I don't even know what Living is.
Starting point is 00:21:11 No, I know. I have not seen any of these except for Banshees and Sharon. So we've got a bunch on the list. Elvis currently streaming, I think, on HBO Max. Yep, yep. AfterSons are rental and I don't know about the whale or living. Is everything all at once streaming? it or is it still a buy thing is it i think that's streaming on hulu maybe paramount
Starting point is 00:21:35 or maybe peacock somebody like that yeah that's right i think it was uh oh showtime oh showtime has it yep i don't have showtime right now but i do want to see it um that as part of a a h like a cbs deal like i got cbs and showtime as a bundle or something aren't you when you do that though don't you end up paying the same as if they were separate or do I have that oh you get a no it was like a it was a price it was the cost of buy one get one free basically it was like get you know pay for CBS get or Paramount plus get uh show time free is that permanent or a limited no I think it was a one year oh okay that's not bad though 12 months no it's been great I could do a year there have been so many things on recommendals that I've recommended from show time that are really, really good, especially that document or that biopic about the formation of Uber, super pumped. Yeah, with Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:39 Yeah. That was good. That's so freaking good. I couldn't bring myself to want to see it because I don't like. The name is a turnoff. It's not even that. It's just douche bro. I don't want to hear, I don't want to hear about those douche bro bags.
Starting point is 00:22:52 That's got a lot of idea. Like, the name makes you feel like, oh, it's going to be this whole like this, he's going to be saying bro. At the end of every sentence, oh, bro, we got to start Uber, bro. Come on, bro. Yeah, I worried about that. Best actress, you got Kate Blanchett in tar. She's not in tar, like the substance.
Starting point is 00:23:10 She's not in the film. It's not like, uh, yeah. She's not in the Libreia tar pits. No, she'll not be Kate Blanchett feather next year, okay? Anna DeArmis and blonde, how you feel about that one? I know you were split on the movie. If there's anything, if there's any part of that. film that should get a nomination, it is Anna Darmus's performance because she was great.
Starting point is 00:23:33 She was the only, and I'm not just talking about like the fact that she's naked through two-thirds of it, but she did a great job of portraying this really flawed in the way that she was being manipulated by so many people at once. And it's, you know, is heartbreaking to watch. And she pulled that off really, really well. Let's see. We got your Andrea Reisboro and to Leslie. Don't know that person or that movie. It's the first time I've heard of either of those.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Yeah, those are names not familiar to me. Michelle Williams for the Fableman's. We know her. She's great. Michelle Yo and everything all at once. That'd be awesome. Get Captain Jojo, her due finally. Fantastic.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Sure. Best actor and supporting role, Brendan Gleason for the banshees of an and Sharon. bugged me at first because I thought, well, why are you giving him supporting? But he is. He's not, he's not as prominent in the thing. You focus really on Colin Farrell for that movie, even though, even though Brandon Gleason's character kind of causes all the shit to happen. No, you're not wrong.
Starting point is 00:24:43 And he's got, that guy, you should give all five of his fingers, their own nominations. If you know what I'm saying. Let's see, Brian, Terry Johnson, and Cosway. I don't know who that is. Wow. Not even the right name. Brian Tyree Henry. Oh, what did I say?
Starting point is 00:24:58 Brian Tyree Johnson or something like that. How did I get Johnson in there? I have no idea. You just want him to be a relative. You know him as Paperboy in Atlanta. He, um... Oh, I like him. Uh, yes.
Starting point is 00:25:10 And that movie, I don't know if I recommendled it, but it's, it's pretty good. It's got Jennifer, uh, Lawrence. And it's one of those, God, is it an Apple TV Plus thing? I don't know. She's a, uh, um she's just coming out of incarceration anyway i don't want to give a lot away but um causeway is causeway is definitely worth seeing and and brian tary henry is just fantastic in it nice you should change his name to johnson so that i can retro
Starting point is 00:25:42 he should correct and i and i think and somebody can clarify or correct me on this i think he and kathy hopkins cheesy g are or were really good friends for a while yeah but if you go look at her Facebook page. She's apparently good friends with all people everywhere. She is good friends with all people because she's good and friendly. I have questions about it. Not in a bad way. I just have questions. I have questions. I should really ask her since I, you know, we know her. I'm not hard to ask her. But I got questions. Judd Hirsch in Taxi. Just kidding. The Fabelman. I love Judd Hirsch. I'd love to see him win something. That'd be great. He certainly wasn't going to get it for Independence Day. So why not give it to him here?
Starting point is 00:26:24 Sure. He was really good and uncutely. gems though fantastic in that yeah he was really good in that he was what's his name's dad right yeah I think yes yes Sandler's Sandler's dad the most normal human being in the entire movie
Starting point is 00:26:39 exactly the only one that doesn't cause any stress and everybody else is effed Barry Kogan for the banshees of Inashiren he's the young kid oh right right oh he was good he was really good yeah I liked him a lot I was he bugged me at first because I just was like where do I know this kid where do I know this kid and I think it's from all stuff I haven't seen so like
Starting point is 00:27:04 he was he was one of the Eternals but you haven't seen Dunkirk haven't seen Dunkirk haven't seen Eternals oh I thought you'd seen Eternals all right the Batman I can't remember who he was in the Batman oh I did see the Batman oh he's the new Joe he's the new Joker in the Batman that's who he oh okay so we see him at the you sort of see him he's like You hear him. Yeah. Definitely hear him. Oh, Chernobyl he was in.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Oh, then I have seen him. Yeah. I love that thing. And he was in that one season of Why the Last Man. Nice. He also got a short round and everywhere all at once. Everything all at once. Time for Oscars, Dr. Jones.
Starting point is 00:27:42 Yeah, that would be cool. Best actor's supporting role, Angela Bassett and Black Panther Wakanda Forever. Hong Chow and the Whale. The whale. The whale. Carrie Condon, Banshee's been a share And I love her
Starting point is 00:27:54 Love her She is great, yes She's so great, dude She is Dang it Yeah, I love her That, you know I'm just waiting
Starting point is 00:28:02 I know we'll never watch that For film sec But that whole description of Oh, a bunch of dudes And one woman In this island Yeah, she was like The only lady
Starting point is 00:28:12 For 100,000 miles Yeah, so it sounds like a Randy Yeah Except for the old lady The old crone Well, The cane Oh God,
Starting point is 00:28:21 The witch, yes. She was weird. She was weird. Gives me the creeps. Jamie Lee Curtis for everything all at once, everything, everywhere all at once. She's first time for her. So that's cool. I like that.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Stephanie Zhu for everything all at once. And then you got all your other stuff. We'll skip past some of these. How about, um, song, let's see, or the screenplays would be good. Adapted screenplay, um, again, all quiet on the western front. Glass onion getting its, uh, it's, uh, it's, It's, I think, only nomination. I think that's just the one, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:54 For Adapted. Yeah. Living, Top Gun Maverick and Women Talking. Original screenplay, again, banshe, everything everywhere, Fableman's Tar and Triangle of Sadness. Yeah. No surprise there.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Again, best original song. You do get Nacho Nacho from Triple R. Um, applause from Toll Like a Woman. Hold my hand from Top Gun Maverick. lift me up from Black Panther and this is a life from everything everywhere but international feature film All Quiet on a Western Front
Starting point is 00:29:26 Argentina close EO and the Quiet Girl Sadly no mention of RRR there It's too bad It is really surprising Best animated film is always a fun one Del Toro's Pinocchio Which I Carter and I are trying to get time to watch Let's see Marcel the Shell with shoes on
Starting point is 00:29:45 From Dean Flesher Camp Wasn't that that start out as a YouTube, like a bunch of little short animations on YouTube, right? I don't know. I've never even heard of it. This is the news to me. Oh, really? Yeah. I should check that out.
Starting point is 00:29:57 I like stuff like that. Puss and Boots, The Last Wish, which by all accounts is really freaking great. I know. It's crazy. I've heard nothing but like rave reviews about that movie. It's just nuts to me. The Sea Beast and Turning Red, which was delightful. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Is there anything else here? Real quick, the best animated short film, you want to go through those? Sure. Let's see. The boy, the mole, the fox, and the horse, the flying sailor, ice merchants, an ostrich told me the world is fake, and I think I believe it. Which is not the funniest title in the list. Finally, my year of dicks. Ah, my year of dicks.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Which. Fantastic. Which caused quite a funny pause when, uh, uh, uh, uh, quite a funny pause when, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, Allison and Riz Ahmed said it on the on the telecast. Well, Allison, her year of Dex was season three of girls. She was all on girls, yeah. Yeah, it was all girls. Best visual effects are always fun.
Starting point is 00:31:01 All quiet on the Western Front, Avatar the Way of the Water, the Batman, Black Panther, and Top Gun Maverick. I think those are all. That's always a fun list, right? Because it's like, ah, these are all the movies we love and we see. Yeah, yeah. Oh, how about documentary? Have you seen, have you seen any of these? I have seen none of these yet, and I love a good documentary,
Starting point is 00:31:20 so I'm excited about what all these are, but I've not seen any of these. Have you seen any of these? I have not seen any of these either, and I know all the bloody, the bloody, all the bloody in the bud shed. It's been on my list, and I didn't realize it was a documentary, so I need to, yeah, need to put all these on my list and watch them all.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Yeah, others are all that breathes, fire and fire of love, the house made of splinters, and Navalny. Navalny. Yeah. So there you go. That's all the big stuff. That's your Oscars.
Starting point is 00:31:52 So get your Oscar pools going. Get your hot wings roasting. Start them slow kicking right now all the way up until March 12th or wherever the data is on these. It's coming fast. So watch for it. All right. And we'll, of course, cover it here. Here is your news.
Starting point is 00:32:10 I don't watch the news. It's time for the news brought to you by. Hair in the Sunflats. I found a bag of sunflower seeds. I had hair in it. Had a little bit of hair in it. One, one strand or like a... A little tuft. A little... A tuft. Yeah. Like multiple strands of hair, kind of at the bottom of the bag. Yeah. It was David's was the brand. Maybe it was David's hair. Maybe. I don't know. It was David's Merkin.
Starting point is 00:32:36 They weren't short hairs, Benjin, in that regard. They were... They were blondish and kind of half-inchy. Something like that. Somewhere in the name. Okay. Yeah. Not cool. Not cool. It's not what I want in the bottom of my bag of anything.
Starting point is 00:32:51 I have a thing that that's my, that's my thing. Like, you know, I can lick the fingers after the chicken wings and do all that stuff. But hair in food really freaks me out. Could you? Okay. Scenario here. Okay. Guys sitting across from you.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Let's say it's Dave, crazy neighbor Dave. Sure. Okay. You both have it. It happens often. Yeah. You're both having barbecue. It's good stuff.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Dave gets a big old, like, finger full of barbecue sauce. Would you suck his finger off? Would you suck it off of his finger? No, I absolutely wouldn't. Okay, good. Don't do that. I might suck the barbecue sauce off Tina's finger, but even then it's like, eh, my own fingers.
Starting point is 00:33:37 That's it. That's pretty much where, you know. I can't even do mine. I can't. Let alone my wives. Can't do my wives, can't do my friends. Can't even do my own. That's just crazy.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Just forget it. Give me a big fat napkin any day. I'm good. Yeah. All right. Let's start with this story. The fact that the vague you phrased is, would you suck his finger off? Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:33:59 I regretted it as soon as I said it. Yeah. Let's see, Kansas City Drug Recovery Center concerned with the smell of a grow operation. Oh, see, this is the thing people don't think about, man. You got these, like, you know, places where people are in rehab. And then like two doors down, you've got a place growing weed. Oh, man. Anyway, something's in the air.
Starting point is 00:34:21 It says here on East 23rd Street in Indiana Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. A marijuana grow factory moved in last year, but a nearby drug addiction recovery center said that there's been one big problem. You smell it. It's got a very strong smell. Says Ken Vic, the executive director of Benelide. Benelied. Benileld. Beniled.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Hall. Benilda Hall. Benilda Hall? All right. Not Belinda Hall. No. Benilda Hall. Or Carlyle or any of those. That's right. It's a total different Benilda. He's talking about the stench of pot filling the air. The organization spent the last 30 years helping men overcome drug, alcohol, and behavioral health issues. About 100 men live there for a few months, taking an nearby bus to get to work. However, the bus stop is across the street now from this new grow operation, meaning the men are smelling marijuana as they can wait. for their work ride. It's actually aggravating or excuse me activating their urges says Vic. This activates the part of the brain that causes an urge which tends to make it harder for them
Starting point is 00:35:25 to focus and want to return to use. I don't know. What are you going to do? You got to, I think that's a, that is a thing where like there should be a radius of what you can't
Starting point is 00:35:41 which you can't build near a rehab facility and I think you know certainly a grow house maybe it may be like a a bar you probably can't have a bar on the same strip mall as a rehab facility feels like a bad idea I don't know it feels like that actually should be kind of a restriction for sure pops and recline in the chat says how who was there first this place was there first They've been there for 50 years. Yeah, the rehab facility was there first.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Yeah, they've been doing it for like half a century. So. Yeah, the growth facility moved in last year. So it's, yeah, I think it was last, that was, that coincided with, uh, legal weed in Missouri, right? Right. Wait, is it legal in Missouri? I don't actually know that. I don't know either. Can you have a, can you have a grow place in a state where it's not yet legal?
Starting point is 00:36:35 No, I don't think you can. Okay. So it must be. Yeah, I drank to wildfires, yes. All right. Yeah. I can smell, so when I, when there's a, uh, when I pick up somebody who works in a grow house versus works in a, um, a cannabis store, there's definitely a different kind of smell. Like working in a store, there's kind of the, just the smell of the smoking around them, but, uh, and, and just someone who smokes a lot.
Starting point is 00:37:02 I actually did pick someone up yesterday who got home from work, put on his sweatpants, cracked open a couple beers and then said, oh, I need some pot. And so called me as a lift to go pick him up, drive him to the cannabis store, and then drive him back to his house because he was smart enough to say, I had two beers, I shouldn't be driving. Good for him. Good for him. But then there's a total different smell for a person who works in a grow house. A much more like a sharp, kind of a tangy, like vinegary kind of smell versus the smell of someone who smokes it. Yeah. So it's the real stuff.
Starting point is 00:37:39 the raw stuff that gets right to the heart of what they want man they want it here's what i would ask uh can door dash bring someone weed in a weed state is that a thing that you can do no because there's there's no responsibility on the door dash person to check ID or or any of that stuff so they'd have so the ID rules wouldn't hold because i think it's the ID rule yeah that's got to be a big part of it just that uh okay um yeah they do they they do have delivery services though i wonder how that works i guess it's if it's arranged through the store and the person who delivers it from the store like is an employee of that store um uh can check ID and make sure interesting yeah well let us know weed lovers how do you get your weed delivered do you have to go get it
Starting point is 00:38:37 Did someone bring... Weed lovers. Let us know. Japan in the news, you know, the Isle of Japan. Oh, I'm familiar, yes. Yeah, the Great Empire of Japan is in the news. Japan sells dead whale pieces and vending machines to boost trade. This is just the stuff that Brennan Frazier left over from the movie.
Starting point is 00:38:55 It's just big chunks of him. I think this is the stuff left over from that explosion in Oregon 50 years ago. Oh, yeah, they're still going through that. You know, you've got to get rid of it somehow. Still getting pieces, yeah. Says here, Japanese whale. hunting company started selling parts of dead whale and vending machines to this is an attempt to boost to trade Tokyo based Kyoto Sempaku last month set up four machines in the capital
Starting point is 00:39:17 and other places selling whale skin frozen whale meat and canned cooked whale pieces that's a fun rate label to see isn't it can cooked whale pieces I'd try whale pieces I try whale I'd try whale I've never had whale but I would try whale yeah if it's cooked sure by the way Adam 12 says yeah you must show ID when you go into the shop, but for delivery, you have to send them your ID online first when you place the order. So that's how they, that's how they know is you've send them your ID online. So could you have done that and then DoorDash can pick it up? You think? Yeah. I mean, if DoorDash or any of those guys, postmates or whatever, yeah, I'd say so. All right. Nice. Thank you, weed people, for your weed info.
Starting point is 00:40:02 Thanks, M12. He works in the cannabis industry, by the. Oh, very nice. Can he be our, what can he be? Yeah, it can be our expert. Every time I got a weed question, we're going to toss it your way, man. That's right. And that'd be great. All right, where the hell was I?
Starting point is 00:40:16 Oh, let's see here. The plan is to set up three more vending machines this month. From 1,000 to 3,000 yam, which is about six pounds, which is about, what, five bucks or something, you can buy the whale meat. If the meat sells well, the company plans to open up 100 vending machines over five years, conservationist decried the move as desperate, cynical sales ploy by a cruel and declining whale hunting industry. Whale meat sales have plummeted in Japan over the last 50 years, so this is an effort to boost trade to support continued hunting.
Starting point is 00:40:49 According to the whale and dolphin conservation charity, it says the company wants to convince the Japanese government it has good business models to expand quotas in future. You know, I guess saying that, yeah, I would try whale meat. that is that is uh kind of like the equivalent of saying sure i'd eat bengel tiger or i'd eat you know some protected animal things so you know what no you keep your whale meat and i hope you go out of business whale hunters and uh and uh and you can't uh kill whales anymore sure they you did it nicely done i mean there are indigenous folks who live i backtracked beautifully they're indigenous folks that live in like siberia or live in the upper arctic stuff who their entire culture is all about eating. Yeah, they eat blubber and all that. Those people are fine. We're not talking about them. We're talking about you fancy schmancies who want to put it in restaurants and vending machines. You jerks. Claire says if either of us ever try a well meat, she will never listen to our show ever again. Oh, man, Claire. All right, Claire, here's the deal. What if?
Starting point is 00:41:56 I love it. I love what he begins with a what if. Here we go. All right. What if there's a hair in the whale. meat and we have to lick our fingers off afternoon. No, here's the deal. What if I'm at a restaurant and there happens to be well meat at the table? I didn't order it. I didn't ask for it. But someone says, here's a little quarter inch piece, Scott, eat it. You would stop listening to the show if I eat that little core.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Oh, no exceptions. Okay. All right. All right. Well, that'll teach us not to eat whale meat ever. And whoever ordered it, I'm never eating with them again. What if I'm up in the Arctic and I'm in an in? minglu sitting around with some lovely Inuit people, and they're like,
Starting point is 00:42:37 ah, we've prepared our family traditional thing. It's got whale meat in it. How about then? I'm eating that. I'll tell you right now, I'll eat that. I will honor those people. Okay. So you take your flag burning the pinko hippie tree hugging lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:42:56 There's a burger place on the strip that's Mark and Donnie Whaleberg called Whaleberger. and I think they sell whale burgers. Oh, is that a thing? I didn't know that. Yeah, Donnie, Donnie Whaleberg and Marky Mark Whaleberg. Known for, Donnie, known for wearing underwear and yelling at, yelling at, I can't think of his name. That kid's got the right stuff.
Starting point is 00:43:22 He's pretty great. Arby's does not have well meat. Sorry, they say they have the meats. They do not have well meat. Sorry. They do not. That's going to do it for now. Let's take a break.
Starting point is 00:43:32 And when we come back, we'll spend some time with our pals, Bill Durand, and, of course, after that Bobby, Bill and Bob, we call them for short. It's the Bill and Bobby hour. It's the Bill and Bob show. It sounds like a morning show of its own right. So, anyway, stick around for that. We got an email for Bobby as well, which I'm excited to read. So it should be fun. But we need music, so Brian provided it.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Yeah, so this is a new solo project from Christine Capua from the band Tiny Fireflies. It is called Tiny Microphone. She's got a brand new single featuring Gary Olson of the Ladybug Transcend. sister. The new album is called Other Cities, and it comes out February 3rd. Go check it out. Big thanks to dark secret media for letting me know about this.
Starting point is 00:44:11 The new single is called Stranger. Here is Tiny Microphone, featuring Gary Olson and Stranger. It used to be quiet. I walked down your street. Now I'm scheduling phone calls and asking the same things It used to rain in July Snuck out to the roof to get high
Starting point is 00:44:50 You would talk about dreaming Like there was something to believe I can't admit your restraint Because when you say my name, it sounds familiar, you and me, you and me, hanging on two faded memories. You used to be wild I thought you would leave a mark so deep that I'd always remember But that was so long ago I can't admit you're a stranger
Starting point is 00:46:02 Because when you say my name, it sounds familiar You and me. You and me hanging on to fade in memories. I can't admit you're a stranger because when you say my name it sounds familiar you who and me hanging on to feel you
Starting point is 00:47:01 Fading memories So here goes nothing If it's the end Here goes nothing If it's the end Does it still matter to you Have you had it? Or have you had it?
Starting point is 00:47:35 Have you had it? Have you had it? Does it still matter to you? But have you had it? Have you had it? Have you had it? Hi, what can I get for you? Do you know of a place where sailors hang out?
Starting point is 00:48:11 Sailors? I see them at night. We close at eight, but I often see them from just before that. I see. What am I going to do? stream. Barbara Kopetsky died in the war. I'm Barb WIRE. And we've returned. Who was that one more time? That is the band Tiny Microphone, a solo project from Christine Capua. It is a new single called Stranger. Check out the full album, Other Cities, early next month. Very nice. All right, everybody,
Starting point is 00:48:58 batting down the hatches because it's time to learn how to make stuff and be. creative. And we're going to do that with our old pal, Bill, who will join us now. Your bat caves open there, Bill. Bill Duran joining us from PunishProps.com. The wonderful place you can go on YouTube or otherwise to see really cool stuff being made. He comes on the show and gives us advice, sometimes works his projects into the conversation. And sometimes it's just good old-fashioned advice for creatives. Bill, welcome back. Good morning, friends.
Starting point is 00:49:27 Hi. Happy to be here. Nice to see you. Did you know? No. Well, let's see. I don't know if I want to bring this up or not. Okay. We had a brief interaction online about this new game coming from the Steam World people, the Steam World Dig people. Oh, cool. I like those. Yeah. Yeah, I love every game. They've never made a game I didn't like. And they always, every game they put out, with the exception of one and two of Steam World Dig, those are two very similar games. But every time they do a game for the most part, it's like a whole new genre. It's like, hey, we're trying something totally different in this world. And they've got a fully 3D realized thing coming soon where you're kind of a bounty hunter thing. And they didn't talk about that. But this week they announced they're making a city builder based in the Steamworld dig universe.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Really? Oh, that's cool. And it looks freaking rad. And I thought of you, not just because you replied on Twitter, but I also thought of you because all the little trinkety things and it looks like shit you'd want to make. I know, right? Yeah. I'm also obviously hooked on games where you have to make things. It's just in my DNA
Starting point is 00:50:30 Yep Yep We started a new Valheim game this weekend Oh no Because I wanted to make little houses Did they ever What's the did they get the new biome They're supposed to be a new biome
Starting point is 00:50:42 Yeah Miss lands I want to check that out too But yeah make it I mean I don't know There's something Something finally pulled you away from Satisfactory Huh
Starting point is 00:50:50 Well Back to Valvin 40 more hours to put into that game Again until I beat it again but I had the Itch to chop down trees You know Sometimes you just want to chop down trees
Starting point is 00:51:03 Sometimes you want to hit a tree You want to hit a tree with a stick And watch wood fly out of it That's just the thing Well good Well anyway When that thing comes out We'll probably have more to talk about
Starting point is 00:51:12 But this week What do you have for us today? I've been obsessed with making stuff That has moving parts And I'm excited because Brittany's been getting into it too She got an old lock From her grandfather's barn this like 100 year old crusty
Starting point is 00:51:29 for lock and wanted to figure out how to replicate it so she's been taking it apart figuring out how all the little levers and the key and the springs work and it's just fascinating so I want to talk about that designing and making things with moving parts with mechanisms
Starting point is 00:51:43 and I have a book recommendation right off the top Oh what's this Wendy? Yeah right This book is called 507 mechanical movements There is a website I'll put it in the chat It's 507 Movements.com.
Starting point is 00:51:59 This book was written in 1901, and the drawings look like it, which is probably my favorite part. Yeah. Yeah, the website actually has some of the images and some animations of all the moving parts. Oh, yeah, look at this. Ooh, this is cool. That's cool. Right? So if you're designing something that has moving parts, this is going to show you, like, if I look at the glossary here,
Starting point is 00:52:26 of terms, you could look for how a cam works, or how a helicograph, or how a Lewis? Maybe that's a guy that made stuff. Learn how Lewis works. And opinions and pumps and screws and presses and propellers. This is the sort of textbook of different individual movements that you combine together to make a bigger mechanism, and I'm obsessed with it. I love it. This is interesting because this author, Henry T. Brown, it's the only thing he ever wrote.
Starting point is 00:53:03 And it's, there are a dozen spinoffs and people with their own rift on it. This must have made a huge impact. Obviously, you're talking about a book in 2023 that was written all the way back then. Like, that's, there must be something to do this. Yeah. Yeah. It's the first book on the New York Times bestseller list. So what's really cool about it.
Starting point is 00:53:24 of those, is that all of the stuff is still relevant for things like 3D printing, right? Like, if you want to 3D print a mechanism, how do you design the parts? Well, you look at this thing and you figure out how all that stuff's going to go together. Nice. Another thing I really love doing, because I've designed a few
Starting point is 00:53:40 mechanical systems in my day, is to look at examples of what you want to replicate. So, I made the Blade Runner Blaster a while back, all 3D printed. The original Blade Runner Blaster, The prop was built around a bulldog revolver.
Starting point is 00:53:59 So I went on the internet, but if I look right now, I'll find it. I found an exploded diagram of the real sidearm, right? Bulldog exploded diaggram. If you know the words to look up, there it is. Oh, exploded diagrams are my favorite. Just all the parts. Yes. My too.
Starting point is 00:54:20 I love those. And it shows you all the parts, what they look like, how they go together. And when I made my version, I just copied it. I just copied that diagram. Now, it took a couple tries. But I got it to work.
Starting point is 00:54:35 I could look at how the spring works. There's a couple different versions in that diagram for the hammer. I picked the way that worked for me. And I was able to copy it, which was really cool. And then I 3D printed all the parts. Before doing any 3D printing, though,
Starting point is 00:54:51 I did like a mock-up. I had a piece of wood, a board with some like cardstock and nails as the fulcrum and like rubber bands as the springs because you can do incredibly simple prototypes like that to figure out the diagram or to figure out the mechanism because I'm here to tell you if there's more than one moving part there are movement relationships there that do not become apparent until you start playing with them like it might make sense in your head but until you see it working or not working rather in real time
Starting point is 00:55:22 the concept doesn't snap in your head right until that happens. I found a YouTube channel that does nothing but 3D renders of every one of the 507 mechanical moments. That's what I'm talking about right there. That's good stuff. Yeah, it's good. Oh, those
Starting point is 00:55:38 are the videos I watch at night after my wife goes to bed. Wow. This is Bill's ASMR you guys. We found it. Nice work. Yeah, but it'll show you. So like if you have something it's rotating and you want something else to rotate at the same pace, but in 90 degrees from that first
Starting point is 00:55:58 one, then that one that was just up on the screen would do it. It's two pulleys with a belt around it that twists 90 degrees. Yeah, the one that blew my mind. Square gears. Yeah. It's worm gears. Yeah. Good stuff. Oh yeah. Look at that worm gears. Look at this. You guys. See, that's a trip. The one with the two square gears that somehow fit. I know, right? I don't know how that works.
Starting point is 00:56:21 That's crazy. You know, what's cool about worm gears is they can't be back-driven. So if you would drive the worm gear, the weird-looking gear there, and it pushes the other one, but it doesn't work the other way around. You cannot back-drive a worm-gear. Oh, that's wild. Which can be very important in different mechanical systems. Never try and back a worm gear.
Starting point is 00:56:41 I always used to say when I was a kid. Yeah. It's old advice, but it holds today. Look at this one here. This is the lips gear? That's insane. Oh yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:56:51 Anyway So another Revolver I designed Was the one from Trigun for Vashah Stampede's Revolver And for that one I purchased a An Aerosoft revolver
Starting point is 00:57:05 And I just took it apart Looked at how all the guts worked And made my own version Nice It is not a simple mechanism I'm here and tell you I'm sure Yeah
Starting point is 00:57:16 So when you pull the trigger The hammer goes back until it gets to a certain point that it snaps forward. It also rotates the cylinder 60 degrees, but there's a little tab in there that prevents a cylinder for moving at
Starting point is 00:57:31 all until you pull the trigger a tiny bit, and then it allows it to spin briefly, and then it locks it again. Very delicate relationship there. But also it's a double-action revolver, which means you can pull the trigger and it'll shoot it, or you can pull the hammer back.
Starting point is 00:57:47 It'll lock in the back position, And then when you pull the trigger, it'll snap forward. So I had to do all of those things in harmony. And it took a lot of tries to figure it out. So many little relationships that rely on things being in the correct position. And if they're not, like, especially that the point that things revolve around, that when you move those just millimeters in one direction or the other, it changes all those relationships. So it took quite a few iterations to figure it out.
Starting point is 00:58:17 Maybe that's why they called the trigon. You've got to just keep trying. Yep. Keep trying. That show, you're watching that new show, by the way? Have you seen the three episodes or whatever? I haven't, but our pal April saw it and she told me I have to say. It's fantastic. It's real good.
Starting point is 00:58:33 I've only seen the first episode in English. The other two are waiting translation or waiting for localization, so I'm going to wait and just do the whole thing in English, but love it so far. And I like, I kind of like the previous Trygun. Didn't love it, but it was okay, the 2D stuff from years ago. but this new thing is like the perfect combination of 2D and 3D it's like they finally figured out what is anime and how can it still be anime in 3D without looking weird
Starting point is 00:59:00 very cool and they pull it off and there's some of the some of the most dynamic action scenes I've seen in anything it's so cool oh awesome yeah you'll love I know it's exciting because several of my prop maker friends have already started making the gun from the new show yeah that's the try harder gun I'm happy with my old one I got it right behind me there I don't think it looks pretty cool. Nice, nice, nice. Well, cool. Well, this is great.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Speaking real quick about animatronics, you probably also enjoy not just like the mechanical stuff like this, but things like the animatronics at Disney World and things like that. The guys who make those video games like I have, I'm trying to remember, New Wave toys, like all the 112th-sized missile command and asteroids, have a Zoltar coming out. It's 112th size.
Starting point is 00:59:49 Oh, cool. So it's got, you know, the little, all the movements of his eyes and his mouth and his hands. I want that. I love to take that apart and see how that one works together. I would love that. Yeah, take stuff apart, everyone. Film, if you can afford it. Yeah, right, exactly.
Starting point is 01:00:07 Take pictures along the way so you go back together. Yeah. Because stuff has springs in it. When you open it, things go flying. Yeah. No, that's awesome. The question is, if you make a wish to be. big, but it's on a one-twelfth-sized Zoltar, what happens? Do you become big, but kind of just
Starting point is 01:00:25 one-twelfth the size of Tom Haines? Yeah, only, uh, yeah, only, uh, 12% bigger. Uh, okay. I want the version that I saw in Vegas where they converted it to have post-malone selling beer in there. We seen that one? Yes. Yeah, we were there. Yeah, we were. That was the one in, uh, resorts world. Yeah, right by that big, uh, that giant, big sphere, sphere thing that just blows my mind. TV, TV spear. Well, Bill, as always a pleasure to hang out with you. You have a little bonus something for us this week? Sure do.
Starting point is 01:00:56 It's a newer YouTube channel called Inheritance Machining. And I guess he inherited an entire machining shop from his grandpa or his dad and makes little machining projects. But it's filmed really well. The video I just sent is him making a nerling tool from a kit. If you're getting into machining, a very old-school thing that still exists is you can purchase kits that give you all the stock metal
Starting point is 01:01:21 and a diagram and then you have to use your lathe and your mill to build this thing. So he's building a nerling tool for his lathe and I find that stuff just endlessly fascinating. Oh, look at that. Yeah, this is cool. I also like the vibe of his channel.
Starting point is 01:01:36 This is brand. Mm-hmm. Very mellow. Yeah. Oh, and he'll frequently, when it comes to, like, designing a project, he'll sit down with paper and the drafting table,
Starting point is 01:01:46 draw that thing my hand, and that tickles me in the best way. Yeah. Very cool. Tickles you in all the right places there, Bill. Well, there you have it. It's Bill Duran, everybody, Punchprops.com. In the meantime, and if you've got any questions and thoughts about Bill,
Starting point is 01:02:00 you can always send those in via email or contact him, and we'll talk about them here on the show. Bill, have a fantastic week, and we'll see you next time. You got it. See it. Bye, yeah. And that Punish Props video, the one he talked about for you, home listeners, is available at quicktms.
Starting point is 01:02:15 nice why can't I find Bobby oh there he is all right his name throws me his actual name always throws me the way it's displayed in discord is weird Robert Holden Frankenberger Hello Robert
Starting point is 01:02:34 All right let's play his thing because we have a theme for him so here you go Where is it right here Whoops Science It is science time for some science discussion with our old pal Bobby Franks who's right here hanging out doing stuff there's this video look at him you guys look at that glorious beard and hair ask in that glorious main that's right did you uh do you fly today or no free of flying oh my gosh I did it was um it was
Starting point is 01:03:04 I'm shaken it was I almost crashed the plane into the ground really for reals geez that almost really happened tell me more I need to know more about this tail so uh well I have to explain not very quickly explain a concept because of a of a term I'm going to use it's called the roundout when you're coming in for a landing you when you land a plane you're actually flying it at the ground right the nose is pointed at the ground at a certain point and it's a very shallow angle towards the ground I think it's like three degrees usually so it's not steep yeah but it's um steep enough that you will crash into the ground because you're pointed at it.
Starting point is 01:03:44 Sure. But there's a point in the landing, and it's very low to the ground. It's like 50 feet above the ground, I think, tops that you begin to, maybe even lower than that, you begin to round, what's called the roundout, which is you lift the nose up. Yeah. And 50 feet? Seriously, that close? Yep.
Starting point is 01:04:05 Jeez. Okay. And so that's why they say that landing the plane is absolutely the hardest part that you will learn, is because you have to gauge those. distances you have to learn when to do it how quickly to do it because here's a thing when you're coming in for a landing also you want your plane to be slow because it's all about managing the energy of the plane right so you when you land a plane you're not pushing it into the ground you're not just like smacking it into the ground you are continuing to fly the
Starting point is 01:04:35 plane right above the ground like a feet above the ground until you slow the bleed off enough energy that the plane can't fly anymore and it just literally falls out of the sky but you're you're like a foot off the ground so it's fine right okay so that's how landing works and so it's it's very you have to do it very carefully um as you can imagine um anyway so the roundout happens at a certain height and then that's when you start to lower reduce your power and you're holding it off and slowly uh doing what's called a flare which is pitching the nose up so that your back wheels hit the ground first. All right.
Starting point is 01:05:16 So now that I've explained all that, last time I went, I was doing bad at landings because I was rounding out too high. And what happens is you round out too high. You're going too fast and you start to balloon up and down. And that's not safe either. So you end up having to go around. So you don't want to round out too high.
Starting point is 01:05:34 And I kept doing that over and over again. And partly that was because it was very windy that day. But so this time I'm in my head thinking, well I'm not going to round out too high I know what the problem was last time I'm going to be careful I'm going to I'm going to trust my instincts and I'm just going to not pull up too
Starting point is 01:05:52 early because I'm afraid of hitting the ground right so I'm going to let myself get a little bit closer before I did and so I'm coming into the ground and I hadn't quite rounded out yet and I'm just about thinking like my brain just switched over to I should round out now
Starting point is 01:06:08 and I hear and feel my flight instructor grab the yoke and go, oh, God! Whoa, really? Damn. When they have to get involved, oh, no. Yeah. And so I kept my cool, and he, after that, kept
Starting point is 01:06:22 his cool, we landed the plane, and we got off, and it was, I was only landing one time that day, because we were doing maneuvers that day. It was today. I was only landing one time today, because we were doing maneuvers out in the practice area. But we get to the parking, and I park, and he goes,
Starting point is 01:06:38 normally he's out of the plane by now, and he's just sitting there, and he goes, so, I don't want to worry or discourage you. Everything was pretty good about that landing except right up at the end, you know. And he said, he said, but my style of instruction is, it usually takes a lot for me to grab the controls. Oh, no. Oh, geez. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:07:01 And I told him, go ahead. At least he's talking to you. Like, the worst thing to me would be he silently writes something on his clipboard and then gets out of the plane and walks away. Like, that would be worse to me than actually saying, okay, well, you know what you screwed up, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, and that's kind of what he was doing, and we talked about it, and it was because I was overcompensating for the previous week, and he was like, he was like, look, I get that, totally get it. You're trying to get this right, you know, and he said, but if you're going to err on any side, you need to err on the side of being too high rather than too low. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:38 So totally makes sense, but it really shook me up. I all on the drive home, I could do nothing but think about what would happen to my children and family if I had crashed that plane. Yeah. Oh, God. Yeah. Not to mention this segment. Well, give a thought to our segment.
Starting point is 01:07:53 Yeah. What about us? What about us? I'm sorry, guys, I don't want to worry you. We don't want to be first on the list, but we want to be on the list, Bobby. Yeah. No kidding. But I'm trying to shake the feeling before.
Starting point is 01:08:07 I go again on Thursday, and I need to shake that before next time because I, I I can't let that distract me. I know what I did. On Thursday, will you go right back to, you know, landing a plane? Or will it be like, all right, we're going to take a, you know, we're going to take a break from landing the plane for a session? Or is it kind of like you've got to get right back on that horse as quickly as possible? Yeah, we need to get right back in it. Because I need to make sure it's kind of like the way I see it is.
Starting point is 01:08:33 And they say this a lot in people who get into car accidents that sometimes, especially if you're shaken up by. sometimes the best thing to do is to get right back in a car and start driving you know how to drive and you're fine you just had an accident and the longer you wait the more it can sit in your head and and you need to like go through the motions again and convince yourself that it was just an incident you know like and you're fine let me ask you this if your instructor shows up in like a big puffy fat suit will he be offended that he's if he uh if he says well today i'm going to be flying the plane Even worse
Starting point is 01:09:14 But if he's like a helmet on And some roll cage stuff And you know all kinds of crap Bubble wrap Yeah that's a good one You'll know what's up You'll know how he feels Well anyway
Starting point is 01:09:24 I'm glad you're here And you didn't crack That's good Yeah for sure And me both Yeah I'm very glad about that Bobby Here is a I got an email
Starting point is 01:09:32 Related to you If you'd like to hear Would you like to hear this Actually I guess it's a text From a listener Is it a text or an email It doesn't matter Either way someone
Starting point is 01:09:39 What is a text uh his name is lee and he says hey scott hey guys sorry but bobby is wrong about the car not being able to be or sorry about the car not being safe in lightning it is very safe place to be in lightning you're down bobby by the way yeah yeah says not he says it's not because of the rubber tires it's because your car will act as a ferrida cage and protect you from the electrical charge see attached gift there was no gift uh anyway uh he says uh but if you have a window open you leave an open path So keep those windows closed, have a great one, Lee. So Lee says, Faraday Cage Car, totally protect you.
Starting point is 01:10:17 It's not the rubber tires. Bobby, what do you say? What's your reply? What's your rebuttal? Well, I, he's totally right. That makes perfect sense. But a couple of points of clarification to defend myself a little bit, I guess. I never said that the rubber tires were anything.
Starting point is 01:10:34 No, I think that was me. Yeah, I think I did. I think I was the rubber tire guy. So, yeah, don't give that. And I never really said that I thought that a car was not a safe place to be. I think I specifically said I don't know, but I would guess. So yeah, my guess was, I think, wrong because I looked at, you sent me the text yesterday. So I looked into it to make sure everything was right.
Starting point is 01:11:01 Did you find the GIF? Like, did you go online and search? I did not see this GIF, no. There's no GIF. He says he attached one, but I didn't get a GIF. No, I'm saying that Bobby could have, like, searched online based on the information, found a GIF. No, I didn't. But, uh, but yeah, apparently there are, there are not, it's hard to find reports of people dying from lightning strikes while in a vehicle.
Starting point is 01:11:22 So I'm guessing that this is probably really the case. The science checks out. Yeah, it would direct it around you. But my point I was making was that I don't think I would want to be in a car either because there's probably still risk, you know. If you're touching anything metal while you're in the car, then you're dead. So you've got to make sure that doesn't happen. But also, like, sparks and stuff can go off. Like, fuel could ignite.
Starting point is 01:11:49 Remember, I was telling you, the lightning bolt itself is 50,000 degrees Celsius. That's a lot of degrees Celsius. Yeah, but I guess people have survived this before, and cars have survived it and stuff like that. so well the uh the chat room provided a gif or a gift a link to the uh to the dudes the top gear dudes uh this is an older video because everyone looks really young in it they're all children basically but anyway they set up a scenario where they get fresh face little boys yeah they set up a scenario where they recreate this and i don't know what the outcome is but uh did anybody have a timestamp yeah i kind of want to see it get shocked here let's see you know it'll be
Starting point is 01:12:30 the end of the video probably yeah uh oh i see it okay so you He's in there. They're waiting. Okay. Oh, I see. It's getting shocked. Okay. It's just basically directing a direct equivalent electricity through a... Almost like a Tesla coil at it, but not
Starting point is 01:12:49 quite the coil. They were at a power station or something when she explains it. Anyway, it looks like he lived because he went on to make more talk here. I read up his hair a little. Oh, no, I guess that's the way his hair normally works. All right. Well, that answers that. Thank you for your text. If you guys have
Starting point is 01:13:05 you know, questions or thoughts about stuff Bobby talks about, like his landing discussion today or whatever. You can send those in. I'm more happy to read them when you get in. But Bobby, you're not here to talk about any of that. No, no. Imagine you brought something to talk about today. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:18 So, so Vegas is coming up. Sure, it is. Yeah. Yeah. It's, I think it's less than, it's just now less than 90 days. It was 90 days yesterday. Right. So because Vegas is coming up,
Starting point is 01:13:31 I'm thinking, but looking back at old pictures and everything, and I realized, I think I need to, lose about 10 pounds before Vegas comes. Oh my gosh. You're tiny. You're a little tiny guy compared to me. I'm a big fat guy. Yeah, you're a little guy. You're fine. You're good. I know I am.
Starting point is 01:13:48 He's nothing but a little guy. You're nothing but a wee man. So I was looking into that. I was thinking about it and I promised this is not a five scientifically proven ways to lose weight fast. I promise that's not what we're talking about. But
Starting point is 01:14:02 it got me thinking about you know the really popular thing that people are doing now intermittent fasting yeah Scott does that yeah I do well sort of my version of it yeah yeah yeah do you want to what kind of success have you seen from that
Starting point is 01:14:20 because that's what I did I looked up what science exists and everything to find out what you know whether or not I'm actually going to do it I'm just curious because because my skeptical alarm bells are always on alert when people are talking about different ways to lose weight yeah no and you should I think.
Starting point is 01:14:36 I think that's a healthy way to look at it. So I did one based on my doctor's recommendation. She said, here's what you want you to do. You're busy in the morning anyway. Yeah. So usually you're not eating breakfast, right? And I said, yeah, not really. And she goes, okay, that's fine.
Starting point is 01:14:55 Just don't eat breakfast. And then when lunch comes around, you have lunch or whatever. And then whatever you're doing for dinner, just make it happen before 7 p.m. so basically you create a bigger window of like sleep metabolism and all that stuff can happen with it with less with less heavy lifting because you're not eating at 10 o'clock right um i haven't always been perfect at it but for the most part i've stuck to it and it did make me or it put me in a place where i was losing weight but i definitely plateaued at a certain point sure um and and to go any further than that i'd have to you know there have to be a more
Starting point is 01:15:32 rigorous exercise regime, a better, better, you know, what I'm actually eating during the day. That kind of stuff needed to happen. But, but it did seem for a chunk of that to shave off about 15 pounds pretty quickly. Yeah. Yeah. So that was my experience with it. And I, you know, experience may vary, I guess. So like I said, I looked into it and I, it was, it was actually very coincidental. I was looking into it and thinking about it. And, and a study was just, published on January 18th. That is the largest participant study that has been done looking at what they call time restricted eating, which, you know, there's a couple of different ways you can think
Starting point is 01:16:19 about time restricted eating, but intermittent fasting is one of them. And so they were looking at the efficacy and how, what does it actually do anything? Right. And so from your experience, you're saying you think it does. Yeah. Brian, what's your instinct to tell you about intermittent fasting? If I'm doing that sort of thing and I'm just overeating during the times that I'm not fasting, then I feel like it's not going to do anything for me. Oh, yeah, no.
Starting point is 01:16:53 That feels like it's got to be a combination of that and a discipline thing. Like if I'm pounding down a big thing of Cheetos, But I didn't do it during my fasting time, then, you know, it's like with anything. You've just got to have the discipline. Anyone who believes that is doing it wrong because that seems ridiculous. Like the whole point is literally to have less caloric intake. And if you are just filling those spaces, the shorter amount of spaces with more calories than what are you doing? Obviously, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:17:23 So, I mean, like with the non-interment fasting, like just doing regular, it's really still just a matter of discipline and not eating the crap that you. you shouldn't be eating good yeah so you guys have the right exactly the right frame of mind and so i'll cut to the chase real fast and then we can talk about all the stuff around it and what the implications are they did the study and it turns out the results are that you're timing your calorie intake and fasting for large portions of the day and stuff like that um or not eating at certain hours in the morning or before certain hours at the end of the day at night um any timing of your calorie intake has no effect significant effect on weight loss, right?
Starting point is 01:18:02 Yeah. And so that's the results of the study. They studied it with almost 550 people. They looked at people in different categories of eating different amounts of small, medium, or large meals at different times of the day. Like, it was a very well-designed study that looked at all the factors. I won't go into those details and everything, because really the takeaway is that they found that it didn't matter.
Starting point is 01:18:28 In general, this is funny. that they listed this in the results. In general, they found that people who ate more large meals gained weight and people who ate fewer small meals lost weight. Wow, you don't say, okay. Water is wet and the sky is blue. Exactly. And so that, it's funny that we say that and you're like, what, you know, duh, what's the point of the study? But that's kind of what they're trying to say is that what it really boils down to is the common sense idea that it really is just calories in calories out, right? As long as you're just thinking about losing weight. Now, it gets more complicated if you're talking about nutrition and other health outcomes, right? But if you're just talking about
Starting point is 01:19:11 losing weight, then that's what matters. There's no link between limiting food for specific time windows, fasting, you know, all that kind of stuff. It's just calories in and calories out. Sure. And so you guys were talking about discipline. Scott, you were talking about, you know, restricting your food to a certain time of the day and in the discussion of the paper they talked about how that that is probably
Starting point is 01:19:39 the reason why you see so much anecdotal success with intermittent fasting is that you're literally just restricting the amount of time that you are allowed to consume food so if anybody who doesn't know intermittent fasting is just you you are you're not allowed to start eating
Starting point is 01:19:57 until a certain you fast for a large portion of the day and you're only allowed to eat during this time window but during that time window you can eat whatever you want yeah see that's the part she told me not to do she said right don't just eat whatever you want eat healthy normal meals but then you know you've now limited your time and you've also had a smart meal during that time like if you just eat if i ate whatever i want during that window i'd eat three pizzas and four hamburgers like what's the point yeah exactly what's the what's the benefit yeah right um but you know the kind of the benefit that I do see from that is that it, you know, going those long periods where you're not eating, you're teaching yourself to get by on being a little bit hungry
Starting point is 01:20:38 and that it's okay to be a little bit hungry and to not not overeat until you're full and then keep going beyond that. Right. So that's one thing I can see. Yeah. It does build good. Maybe not. Good is the wrong word, but it builds habits about, you know,
Starting point is 01:20:57 know, shows you what proper hunger feels like, all that kind of stuff. But they were saying that really what this does, intermittent fasting, and why so many people anecdotally experience success, is because you're limiting the window of time that you can consume calories. And it's just, our stomachs are only so big. So you're only going to be able to consume so many calories during that time. Now, some people will just cram it down, you know, maybe. and that they won't see success there but but like your typical person you're going to eat and
Starting point is 01:21:30 during the window you can eat and you're going to be like oh well I'm full now I don't want to eat anymore and so you're going to lose weight because you're going to at the end of the day each in that day you've only consumed a certain number of calories right right right right right no that makes sense I mean as always these things are usually they boil down to like a couple of consistent truths so when someone has any fat diet they're either just redecorating like putting frosting on an existing working thing or they make a bunch of promises that you can't actually well that's what it is right you've got a ton of science that shows because there is research out there that shows that for example um
Starting point is 01:22:14 there was a study that was that came out last year that showed uh that um if you consumed like if you did it was something about breakfast time like if you didn't if you didn't eat before a certain time oh no no here's what it was it's if you had a certain amount of calories first thing in the morning when you woke up it led to some kind
Starting point is 01:22:37 of a weight loss but but and they found that that's and it was just a small effect but it was still an effect and it was probably be you know there's you could speculate as to why that is and they say it was probably because you like preloaded a full feeling and then you
Starting point is 01:22:52 you felt fooler for more of the day. But anyway, it was a small effect, and that's what it is, is there's all these other things you can do that will just, that will give like a little bit, maybe 10% of an overall effect, but 90% of weight loss is just calorie restriction. That's all you do. That's what it is. Every day you're going to burn a number of calories. You need to make sure that you're consuming less calories than that. So, and, and that's the bottom line. And it's that 10%, this is the reason I got on this in the first place, it's that 10% of, like, science that points, pokes at the edges of different things that will, that will work, that is, that is really marketable.
Starting point is 01:23:37 Everybody wants to, to really sell you on that, right? Yeah. So, and that's, that's why, because the, the 90% isn't, isn't sexy and attractive. It's not cool, you know, it's not a, it's not a thing that you can do. just stop eating. Yeah. That's basically it. Yeah, it's unfortunate.
Starting point is 01:23:56 And that's frustrating, but that's unfortunately for some people, that's well, part of the reason is because it represents this promise of less work, less commitment, less sacrifice. Don't worry about the discipline. All you have to do is this, this one simple step and you'll lose
Starting point is 01:24:12 weight. And it's so not true. Yeah, it's always BS. Always. Not always. Like you said, there's always a sliver of something, right? Like you could do, I don't know, Atkins And you could say, well, yeah, increased intake of protein versus fats and carbs and, you know, you can come up with like a little pivot reason why this is a good idea. Right. But at the end of the day, I don't know any 90-year-olds who are really healthy who ate nothing but fried chicken for the last 20 years, you know?
Starting point is 01:24:39 Right. So, I don't know. I think you just got to do the hard thing. I do want to make it clear to people who might be hearing this and think that I'm saying that, you know, intermittent fasting or something like that. Like, you shouldn't do it. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it. I'm saying what I'm, if there's a takeaway point here,
Starting point is 01:24:59 it's that intermittent fasting may work as a strategy for some people to restrict their calories. Scott, you said it was working for you. And it may be because, like, if you're like me, I think intermittent fasting would work for me. And the reason is I have a hard time. When I get started eating, I love to keep eating. Yeah, yeah. Beyond the full point. Yeah, yeah. And I love snacking. So if I can build up the, if I can get the discipline, as you put it, Brian, to say, well, okay, I'm only going to do that during a certain portion of the day. That might work for me, you know?
Starting point is 01:25:42 I also grew up in a house where you were punished if you did not take all the food that was put on your plate. Not the food that you put on your plate, but the food that somebody else put on. your plate so that's a well i i grew up we were we were pretty poor growing up and so we would like maybe once a year get the opportunity to go to a restaurant um and so it was like this is amazing i'm going to eat all kinds of stuff and to this day i you know we go to restaurants whenever we want to but to this day going to a restaurant i have a really hard time not like ordering an appetizer a big thing maybe a dessert and a side and then cramming it all in because It's like, it's a special treat. When are we going to get to do this again?
Starting point is 01:26:25 Yeah, but like, exactly. When I was young, I was like, when is the next time I'm going to be at Applebee's? Oh, my God. Right. Right. Yeah. Now I, this is, you're basically describing me. It's my pattern. Yeah. And I eat, and that's the part I struggle with the most.
Starting point is 01:26:38 But it's almost like you don't even have to call this intermittent fasting. All we're really talking about is like eat less. Different strategies for controlling how much you eat. Yeah, but these people that are like, I'm Wednesday through Friday, I'm not eating a thing. If that's working for you, I guess, go for it. Mondays, I eat whatever I want as much as I can to get me through those three
Starting point is 01:27:00 days. That doesn't seem good. That seems bad. Not bad. I hear people who will, even if it works in the short term, it's not sustainable. You're not going to be able, once you've gotten to your desired weight, you're not going to be able to keep that up. Yeah, yeah. I hear of people who will go like on a week
Starting point is 01:27:16 long fast. That's dangerous. Yeah. It is. It's like, you're basically starving you're starving yourself but you don't want to do that your liver's going to take a big shit in your veins these are all made up things that I'm saying now these are not true anyway well that's very good I love debunking health stuff and so yeah you obviously you've got a thing for it as well so I like it when you come on here and do it Bobby tell people where they can get more science out of you on a regular basis oh well we have a podcast called all
Starting point is 01:27:50 around science where we talk about science-y stuff and what's going on in the world of science and everything. We just had an episode that just released yesterday, and it was all about something that I can't remember. I'm stalling to pull up some notes. It must have been a really riveting moment. Yeah. Yeah. It's, you know, it was about a really exciting thing that, I bet I can tell you before you get there. Hold on. I must have been. Oh, it's about brains. It was about how our brains actually evolved. Oh, yeah, your title is, look at the big brain on brains.
Starting point is 01:28:28 Or on humans, sorry. Yeah, right. Too many breath. It was how it evolved. And if we're so evolutionarily and genetically similar to chimpanzees, how is it our brains are so much bigger? What were the, what contributed to that if our genes are so similar? Because they're like 99% the same as chimpanzees.
Starting point is 01:28:47 Yeah, that's awesome. Well, chimps are. Pretty wild, baby. That'll do it for having you here today, but we'll have you back next week. Don't worry. Don't worry. And don't go crash, please. Yeah, as long as flying goes well, I'll be here next week.
Starting point is 01:29:03 Please keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars. That's right. One day, you will be Top Gun. See you later. Okay. Well, good. It didn't hang up on us this time like last week. I did the exact same thing, and it didn't do it.
Starting point is 01:29:16 Whew. Woo-hoo. All right, a couple quick things. A friendly reminder. This is the week. At the end of this week, I'm going to be able to take all these numbers and figure out what our swag counts are going to be. So if you have not gone to Vegas, sorry, TMSVIVATMSVegas.com and gotten your tickets reserved and or your swag if you're not coming, you need to do it quickly because this is the week where we make those head counts. And I need to kind of get a better idea who's coming.
Starting point is 01:29:42 It doesn't mean that there still won't be tickets or you can't get them. We won't cut things off, but, come on, just get your tickets. Even if you haven't booked your flight or your hotel yet, get your tickets, lock those in because that's what we base things on and space and that sort of. All of it. And if I'm going to get all your swag ready, I need to know. So get over there and get it done. VivaTMSVegas.com. The links are there for both the swag and swag plus ticket options right now.
Starting point is 01:30:08 So just scroll them on the page. That's the good way of putting it, right? You'll still get in. You may not get swag if you don't get your ticket now. That's right. Speaking of Vegas, we got a question via text. This came from a listener named Nobody. He's anonymous.
Starting point is 01:30:22 He doesn't have a name. Nobody. Named a nobody. He sent this in says, hey, TMS crew. Oh, Michael. Duh. Michael here in Edmonton. I always look forward to the end of your messages.
Starting point is 01:30:31 And if I don't see it, it throws me. Anyway, he says, question for Brian. You may have already told us this, but I can't remember. Do you have a Brian's recommendation for Vegas trip list? We're going to be a couple of first timers, and it seems overwhelming, please help. Did you ever put anywhere where people could be just like nab this or have this? I did, but it needs
Starting point is 01:30:52 to be updated. Coverville.com slash Vegas is the page where I've set all this stuff up. But there's so much stuff I need to update on there. There's no mention of Area 15. There's no mention of Omega Mart and Meow Wolf and that sort
Starting point is 01:31:08 of thing. So basically I need to just redo that whole page and say, all right, where to stay? Here's some recommendations. Where to go to eat? or where to eat, some recommendations, and then what to see while you're there, some recommendations. So like Meow Wolf and that really cool burlesque whiskey tasting thing
Starting point is 01:31:29 that's also over an area 15 that I did with Barry and Tristan. And that was just such a, such a cool experience. Awesome. So watch for updates there then. Yep. Yep. So go there. There's stuff already there, but there'll be more stuff soon.

Starting point is 01:33:04 Rob Garcia wrote in and said, hey, I need an awesome rock song to announce to the world, the entrance of two new adults. Scott and Brian, I would like to have you play a song for my twin sons, Alec and Zach, who turned 18 this past weekend. It's actually two weekends ago. This was from the 9th.
Starting point is 01:33:20 So, wait, are you saying these, so it's a birthday of twins? Is that you're telling me? Yes. Listen to this. Let's party. All right. That's all I wanted to do. TRPW is saying, did you see Safia kneeguards every hotel in Vegas videos? Yeah, but that
Starting point is 01:33:36 one, unless there's a different one, that one just is on the strip. So basically, from the stratosphere down to Mandalay Bay. I didn't see one where she stayed at downtown places. Yeah, that would be good to include because there's a lot of rad stuff down there.
Starting point is 01:33:52 Exactly. So, yeah, if you see one that's got downtown, that's great. But listen, I've been talking with Bernadette. She is so excited to see all of us and welcome the TMS group back there. So there's, you know, there's no other place as far as I'm concerned to
Starting point is 01:34:08 stay downtown. Anyway, seem like yesterday we brought Alec and Zach home for the first time as their dad. I'm super proud of the young men they've become, and I'm looking forward to what the future brings as they start college in the fall. Brian, please find an awesome rock song to announce the arrival of two new adults. I've been listening since show number one, and the boys always cracked up when Scott played the fart sounds before going to the news.
Starting point is 01:34:32 Right now you heard it at the end of the birthday clip. Scott, can you give us an epic fart symphony? Wow. And check the phasers while ordering a fish sandwich and eating rice. Oh, my gosh. Too many combos, but I will give you this brand new fresh fart sound I've been using lately. A little fresh fart. It's good. I love this one. Here you go. Oh, man. Oh, wow. And that came out of a person. That's not made up. That's real. They came out of the bottom of a person or the top of a person? That came out of their butt hole.
Starting point is 01:34:59 Right there. Wow. Yeah. And the only reason I know that is I saw, I captured it from a YouTube video where the guy took his phone and captured it. And I got it from, oh, no, it was TikTok. Well, wherever. Jamie sent this. He says, you have to use this. I said, you're right, Jamie, I do. So I'm using it, all you're getting... Oh, wait, I'll give you the phasers, though. Why not? Let's see. Sure.
Starting point is 01:35:19 Here we go. Let's test the ship's phasers. Sure, why not? Oh, yeah. All right, good. Let's get to this. Look, they're not kids anymore. However, because I couldn't find a good cover of I'm an adult now by the pursuit of happiness.
Starting point is 01:35:34 I love that song, but couldn't find a really good cover of it. So, decided to go with kids. How about kids in America? Of course, the song originally done. by Kim Wild. There's a new version of it that came out on a Netflix show that I think I recommend old last year called Do Revenge. You did. This is the version, there you go.
