Starting point is 00:00:00 Coming up on TMS, then you can X-WIF! Ah, shoot, another UFO. Don't make me say your zip code. Tap dad asteroid. Some like it, not. An eel-slapping good time. You lying sack of turd. This website is useless.
Starting point is 00:00:16 Better check it out. Are dolphins fish? Because I seriously, like, wanted to know. 99 red balloons floating in the U.S. sky. Oh. The Salem Cat Trials. Criminally negligent Mrs. Doubtfire. Come to Vegas for a moment of clarity.
Starting point is 00:00:33 Heavy Metal Lego with Bill. Fly to the hills with Bobby N. Moore on this episode of The Morning Stream. As the first volunteer for the Man Dolphin Super Shoulder Project, I gave my DNA for my country. I now have the strength and intelligence of a dolphin. Let's over! The morning stream. I think there was something in that coffee.
Starting point is 00:01:19 Hello, everyone. Welcome to TMS. It's the morning stream for Tuesday, February 14th, 2023. I'm Scott Johnson. That's Brian Ibit. Hello. Hi. It is both of those things.
Starting point is 00:01:34 Verifiable facts here. Verifiable facts. A blue checkmark on both of those items without paying $8. Hey, by the way, we haven't talked about it. How do you feel about all these UFOs getting shot down? How you feel about that? You know, won't somebody stand up for the UFOs? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Will someone please speak for these weird unidentified flying objects, please? Yeah. No, I feel like if there's something in the same, guy that that we can't claim, identify, or bring down
Starting point is 00:02:08 peacefully. Maybe that's the problem. Maybe we should be trying to bring them down peacefully. I don't know how you do it. You need a big net, right? Like a big catch the stuff in a net but shoot the, but bust the balloon. As long as we can tell that they're not,
Starting point is 00:02:24 you know, that it's not from another planet. Could not be a bummer, right? If like oh, we come to Earth with with words of peace and we want to show you our technology and share with you the things we've learned over our vast millennia of existence in our universe oh no they're shooting us all right bye yeah and also you know if you blow them up before they have their chance to show you how how peaceful they are then then it's our fault then then then what do we do so yeah i don't know man i uh here's here's what i know okay i'm going to make a you're going to make a shocking statement
Starting point is 00:02:56 here for everybody okay all right it's not aliens it never was aliens and it never will be aliens there that's I've said it all right oh come on never will be that's a big bold statement not in our lifetime it ain't happening I'm telling you right now there's no way okay first of all if an alien came here it wouldn't just be a relatively small object 30,000 feet in the air slowly moving over Canada okay there'll never be that it'll be something else just because because aliens always have to be humanoid shaped and our size okay so possible yes probably No. Okay. I'll give you. I'll work with you on the probable. Yeah. I'm a big fan of probable versus possible. I just, uh, this idea that there is suddenly a huge influx of aliens and we should all be terrified is ridiculous. Let me tell you the place they should have done it. If you're an alien and you really want to make a splash, here's where you do it. You do it on the Super Bowl because A, it's a big open hole. All right? You got a big dome with a hole in it. Uh, it's Arizona. It's nice and clear. You're not going to have to deal
Starting point is 00:03:59 with any weather stuff. This year was, yeah. Yeah, this year was. And then it's the most watched thing on television at the moment worldwide. And aliens understand television and ratings. I know we had a president that was very focused on ratings, but
Starting point is 00:04:13 aliens are going to be as Again, probability versus possibility. You never know, right? The Nielsen statistics just came out. Super Bowl is the place we should make our debut. I'm just saying if they want to make the biggest stink and really wreck us.
Starting point is 00:04:31 That's where you do it. And they didn't do it. And I'm telling you, okay, here's why I don't like UFO stuff. Same reason I don't like Bigfoot crap. Yeah. It's always some blurry off in the distance bullshit. It's never, ever anything but that. So it's, plus those people always end up admitting they did it later on.
Starting point is 00:04:51 They're always like, yeah, I was dressed in a gorilla food. The Loch Ness monster dude. Yeah. Yeah. Now, that stuff has gone down to consider. as phone technology or as camera technology has gotten better and more available to us on our phones and stuff. You notice how we don't get the blurry UFO shots as much anymore. And I think it's because it's too easy to disprove now with like, oh, dang it, I got a really clear picture
Starting point is 00:05:16 and it's obviously a weather balloon. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, oh, dang, these megapixels. It's, it's blowing my whole UFO theory. There it is. See, look, and that will keep happening, right? The better we are surveilling. Also, we're getting a little too good at faking things, too. So it'll have the opposite effect for some people who are gullible and stupid. But here's what I, here's what I think will end up happening with aliens. I'm willing to today, in this economy, I'm willing to put $1,000 down that in our lifetime, there will be no proof of aliens. You and I are going to die before any of that ever happens. Okay. So it's our, our lifetime years and mine, not everyone listening. Yeah, me and you. All right. You know what? I'll even put people in the audience.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I'll even put that a thousand bucks down on my kids' lifetimes because they can handle that money after I'm gone. And that thousand bucks will appreciate over time because of inflation. So it could be a couple of grand, 10 grand. I don't know what it'll be by the time we get an alien. But it's yours to have if I'm wrong. Okay, everybody? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:17 You can have it. But see, here's, I mean, you got to have somebody who's going to administer that bet when you die because, oh, Scott died. Scott won the bet, but somebody needs to collect. it because you're dead yeah exactly Carter you're she's in the chat you're my officiator of the thousand dollar growth bond thing
Starting point is 00:06:36 you can put it in the bank let it accrue some some interest whatever you want to do track of everybody who took the bet collect their PayPal or Venmo information because those will still be around and yeah yeah but all these people screaming end times right now man I need to get off Twitter
Starting point is 00:06:52 are there people screaming in times oh of course there always is and there's stuff like this I have not launched the I've launched the Twitter app to reply to somebody, because I get the notifications if somebody uses my name specifically. I'm not looking for anything on Twitter right now. I'm off it. You know what? Let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:07:08 You are the smart one here. I need to be like you. I need to get off that shit. Not look there anymore. I like communicating with fans, which is primarily my use case. But once in a while someone will say, did you see that Rihanna had a five tips upside down star pentagram on her belt?
Starting point is 00:07:27 and she was wearing all red she was of the devil shut up I can't do it anymore I'm done really I can't do it anymore when they send you stuff like that because it's somebody it's somebody who's using
Starting point is 00:07:40 at Scott Johnson right yeah yeah does that do they even know who they're talking to are they thinking wow Scott's totally gonna agree with me on this because he's so totally into satanic
Starting point is 00:07:52 symbology that he'll absolutely back me up Here's what I think happens. They hear us, they hear me on the show talking about it like we are now. And they just are trying to poke me. They want to have fun. Yeah, they want their moment. 15 minutes.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Oh, that's right. Today I was supposed to be, I was supposed to satisfy everybody's degradation kink. So you're all stupid. You're all lame. Ah, did I get it? Did I get it? You all suck and your, your penises are very small. I'm going to use.
Starting point is 00:08:19 So what I've done in the, I'm going to do, I'm going to do less of the socials and more of the. More of the down, dirty, gritty, old-fashioned socials. Like we used to do on forums, I'm going to use Discord like I've never used it before. I already have in the last few days. Just get in there, talking to you guys on the ground. If one of you tells me aliens are real, whatever, I'll move on to the next one. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, Discord.
Starting point is 00:08:45 I like the community in Discord is a really good community. It is. It's a good place. It's less of the cesspool that all of Twitter has become. And like I said, I'll say, oh, somebody just sent me. and maybe the film set crew, I don't know, just as an example, a text about, I don't know, let's say just as an example, Iron Eagle, making a statement that I was able to disprove, you know, just as an example. Just an example. Not you're just making that one up as an example.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Yeah, I didn't see this at all, this example you're bringing up. No, no, definitely not. I wasn't copied on that. I may have been a little snarky. I may have started my degradation kink a little early. did that a little bit yesterday afternoon I saw that one and I was like oh he's a little salty today
Starting point is 00:09:30 there's a little salt coming out of Brian yeah you know what it's the way it's the way that it was phrased like yeah here's the thing if you come out of and say wait guys wasn't the when he was speaking to Chappie and Chappie wasn't hearing him
Starting point is 00:09:43 wasn't it because he was listening to Chappie's tape instead of guys I can't believe like I haven't watched this movie in 15 years guys and I can't believe you didn't figure out that it was from the cassette tape that
Starting point is 00:09:58 Chappie was talking to him. Yeah. It was all about... Crying laughing laughing face. Yeah, it was all the tone of that thing for sure. Yeah, definitely, I didn't add any tone just there that wasn't already in it. No, no, no hyperbole. No extra tone added. No, none. He didn't make a voice or any of that.
Starting point is 00:10:14 If you come at us handaway like doing that sort of thing, I'm in a fireback with the same level that I... Yeah, you're just playing in the same sandbox. You're going to play in same mud i get it exactly but anyways so uh what's i going to say about that oh i was going to say this so if you are if you want a good uh discord community full of a bunch of frog panty fun people um that's what we are we're frog panty fun people you can get on there super easy i have a link for it
Starting point is 00:10:42 and everything you just go to frogpants.com slash discord and you're in yeah it's a free it's a free invite you don't have to do anything don't have to submit anything exactly you just get in don't you just get in we have all sorts of discussions going on marvel snap talk in there, stuff about the TMS couch party. That's where you'll go for that. You should hear the people losing their minds over Windows 11 getting rid of an internet explorer support or something. There's a whole thing going on in the general chat right now.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Please let it, let it die, as Marge Simpson said about the same size, six-pack. Thanks. Yeah, I've really been workshopping that one. The last 35 years. exactly what's it well uh let's get to it so i've got a thing i wanted to share i just thought was rad i didn't even know this existed uh speaking of nonsense on the internet uh there's this webkite website called webkite website called the useless web and uh it's useless the useless web dot com and this reminds me of what i used to love about the internet because for me this is a lot of what the
Starting point is 00:11:50 internet used to be for me is exactly this so basically it's just a landing page that says take me to a useless website and it is random so I'm going to hit I'm going to hit oh really oh this is cool okay I'm going to hit this button see where this one takes me it'll take you somewhere totally different yeah so this says can't not tweet this can't okay so now I'm at a I'm at a site called can't not tweet this dot com so that's useless right that's very useless all it does is repeat the words so it just says can't is there anything on it it's like a it's an animated animated HTML 5 thing
Starting point is 00:12:24 is what I'm getting with letters where did you go I landed on corn dog dot I oh I'll put a link in the
Starting point is 00:12:31 so you can get to it yourself this is just a bunch of corn dogs flying through the air it's like it's like an after dark screensaver
Starting point is 00:12:39 but it's done with multiple levels so it it's it feels very 3D yeah look at that that's cool see look at that you guys
Starting point is 00:12:47 that's got like parallax scrolling you might call that I think That's right. Okay. The tuba says that's a virus. Yeah, as far as I know, none of these will give you malware.
Starting point is 00:12:59 I'm going to hit another one. Let's see what it takes me this time. It takes me to e-slapp.com and it's a guy getting slapped. Oh, I control it. Here, Brian, you got to see this one. Okay. This is worth you seeing. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:13:13 I have binary piano.com. Okay, so this looks like a snake or an eel? Oh, eel slap. I didn't, I thought you were just saying e-slapp. I thought it was e-slapp. It's eel slap. And he's getting... Oh, this guy looks like one of our programmer, former programmers at the...
Starting point is 00:13:29 Oh, look at that. Your mouse controls the slapping. Yeah. See, this is where you got to turn on, move your mouse with your face. And, like, just go, shoo, shoo, shoo, just slap them like that. I would get nothing else done that day. I'd just sit there. Look at him.
Starting point is 00:13:46 He doesn't know what's coming. Look at those eyes. No, it doesn't. Whack. Oh, all right. See, somebody actually has to wear a glove to slap them with that eel, too. That's right. I'll try one more.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Barry me, sorry, bury me with my money.com. It's just a, what is it? Oh, it's a guy. Okay, it's just a body jumping from a high place, and then when they land, their money falls out of them. And then the words come up again. Oh, binary piano. So it took me to binary piano. This one's kind of cool.
Starting point is 00:14:19 It's like it's counting up from zero in binary, but it's playing the ones and zeros like their musical, like their notes. Oh, okay. Weird. Yeah, you may want to turn the volume down if you can. I can mute it before you. Well, you won't make any. I guess I want to hear it. You don't want to hear it. You just don't want it.
Starting point is 00:14:42 Yeah, good point. If you're going to play it through the thing. All right. I'm bringing it up. Let me hit this. let me oh I don't know if have a way to volume it
Starting point is 00:14:52 let's see well we'll find out yeah that'll eat your brain after a while it'll lead your brain yeah goodness okay that's cool though that's pretty cool
Starting point is 00:15:06 yeah see so it's dumb but I I want to return like whatever web 3.0 is everybody keeps talking about let's not forget this this dumb shit you know yeah exactly
Starting point is 00:15:17 Let's not forget the origins of the web, which is, let's do something weird. Let's not be so serious all the time. Let's not try to figure out how to monetize everything. Just have a dumb site that does nothing. I got a game called One Square Minesweeper.com, and I lost. I clicked on the One Square, and it turned out to be a bomb. That's a bummer. That is a bummer.
Starting point is 00:15:38 It's like, you know. It's all this code to just, you know. I think I found one you'd like. That's the thing. finger.com and I'm going to send you a link so you can play with it because it requires control. Oh, look at that. That is really the finger. Yeah. And if you use your mouse, you hover up and down. You get a point down at the bottom. I haven't figured out. So it's just moving up down. Because it's just up down. Yeah. Vertical. So you get a bird up top and you get a pointer
Starting point is 00:16:08 at the bottom. So that's pretty cool. So take that, you A-holes. Look at that. I'm mad at everybody. I'm doing a bird. A long doge challenge. All right. Well, this is fun. I like the useless web. It does, it does harken back to a day when, when the web was, you know, wasn't, wasn't, uh, as, as, as, as, as, it was, uh, as, as, as, yeah. And sometimes websites, they had one purpose. And, and, and literally that purpose was to be a bird that flipped or a guy getting slapped with an eel. Like the whole reason the site exists. There's no other links. There's no other way to do anything. And there's no ads like it's, you know, nope, I don't have any ads. I just have a guy getting slapped in the face with an eel yeah and what's cool is those last few ones we looked at
Starting point is 00:16:50 especially the ill one these are all using modern technologies to make them work it's html 5 it's not some old flash thing like it's still it what it tells me is there are still people out there that long for it maybe we'll have a nostalgic um rebirth of what we used to have fun with you know yeah yeah kind of like how i i really do think people are getting legitimately really fatigued by the current state of social media or whatever web 2.0.0. know is and I do think they want like a return to some things and in a lot of ways discord is just straight up forums again that's what it is it's forums it's private forums we're going back to bbses basically yeah i kind of like it i do too totally fine with that um all right
Starting point is 00:17:32 well claire that's good she says she's not fatigued because she's not on it she says that's the way to do it you know let your let your social media just be a community of people that you already know you like and just hang out in that community and maybe keep out of the the musk-scented cesspool of Twitter. Yeah, the poo-poo. Brian, speaking of a poo-poo, you got a new cat who's doing pooh-poo's. Yeah, tell us about your new little kid. Yeah, so she's a little black cat. She's about, well, the shelter said she's two years old. She seems younger than that. She's smaller. She apparently, she was living, she was in a home then was living out on the streets. I don't know how they know this, by the way. Like how they know
Starting point is 00:18:13 she was in a house and then living it on the streets. I guess they can tell by her behavior if she was just feral. But she's a little black cat. We've named her Salem, Massachusetts. Love it. Tina likes all these little one-word names like Lucy and this and that. I'm inspired by, we've got friends who have a cat named Dr. Funkasaurus. We've got Hammond, who's got a cat named Fish Taco and another cat named Jamkis.
Starting point is 00:18:43 from accounting it's like yeah i like the i like the goofy names and this is kind of like the meat in the middle situation it's uh it's salem massachusetts patina calls her salem i call her salem mass that's a great that's a great compromise actually because she's got her short fun name and now you and you've got your long weird name exactly if i'm really madder like if she starts starts chewing on cords behind my desk or something i'm gonna call her salem Massachusetts. Hold on. Let me do it again here. Salem, Massachusetts, 01765. Ah, perfect. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:19:19 She knows she's in trouble when I throw the zip code in there. That's an actual zip, I assume. I don't think it's something like that. Because they got zeros out over there on that end of the country. They got all those. Yeah, exactly, because it's all east coast is all the, it's, it moves from right to left, zero to nine. Who's in charge of that shit? Because I got a complaint. Can I lodge a complaint?
Starting point is 00:19:41 You can't. I'm going to lodge a complaint. Where's my complaint music? Do I have that still? I mean, it's an established. Here. I'll use that today. Here's my complaint I'd like to lodge.
Starting point is 00:19:54 They changed our zip code. Fine. Okay. That's fine. If you're, we're growing out here, it's a growing area. I get it. Yeah. It happens.
Starting point is 00:20:02 But to this day, and this has been seven years now since the zip changed, to this day, they're still confusion. I'll do like an order on. a website and it'll say, uh, we're going to use this address instead. It's more accurate. And it's the old zip. And it's the old zip. Yeah, sure. So I'm like, well, which one do you want? My tax stuff gets effed up every year because some of the stuff has the new zip. Some has the old zip. And the accountant's always like, yeah, they're asking for us to figure out which zip. I'm like it's, I don't make the rules. You told me a change from the 95 to the 09. You
Starting point is 00:20:33 told me that, dear city, state, whatever. Freaking quit changing it, thus ending my complaint. I think that that's a very valid complaint. I don't feel, I mean, I guess I understand, right? It's you want zip codes to, if you see, if population in a zip code is increasing, you need to kind of split that zip code into two. Right. I guess it kind of makes sense. I haven't seen that.
Starting point is 00:20:57 I don't even mind them. I've never seen that happen, actually. I mean, I've seen the plus four get changed. The plus four that's added on there get changed, but. Right. It is weird, right? It is really weird, yeah. What is also weird is it.
Starting point is 00:21:09 was 84095 and it's now 8409 so it's actually a lower number yeah and so I don't get how I don't get any of it like there's some guy in an office somewhere who's just nerd it's just basically up well this number is not taken let's let's split this one into that number yeah it's a huge zip code, Carter, don't worry about it. That did not docked. Yeah, I docks a 100-mile zone. Everything's fine. People are going to be driving up and down in the entire zip code looking for Scott's
Starting point is 00:21:44 house. Kate Katsumi did ask a very important question. How is Enara taking to the new addition to the house? Oh, yeah, yeah. So we got Salem on Friday, and through the whole weekend, Salem, man, Salem, for the life that she's led up to this point, you would think that she was starved and mistreated and to, you know, some degree being out in the streets, allegedly, and then living in a small cage at the animal shelter, we gave her Tristan's old
Starting point is 00:22:20 bedroom to start with so we could close the door, not have to have her have to worry about interacting with a gnar for the start, let her just kind of get used to us and used to the house. And she was like, oh my gosh, this is like, I'm. I've got so much room in here. She's purring. She's purring to the point where she's making noises when she purrs. Like that kind of like, just super happy kind of thing. Happiest cat on the planet when they do that, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:46 Yes, for sure. And like, you know, doing rub, massaging with her paws kind of thing. Making dough, I think is the kneading dough, as they call it. Then we kind of open the door. We keep in our downstairs here in the basement with me. and then we open the door and let her kind of explore the upstairs. And we can tell she's like each addition of her world space kind of freaks her out a little bit. She's like, whoa, there's all this extra room in here?
Starting point is 00:23:16 What the hell? Like she hunkers down is like kind of looking around and now she's getting used to that. So now she's doing the purring thing again. And then we, you know, then we kind of open up the rest of the house kind of living. room tours still all the upstairs she still doesn't see them downstairs and she'll be like oh my god there's so much shit down here that's what she's gonna say i love that though i love that it's adorable uh yeah she she uh she's acclimating very well and she's had some interactions with anara but it's mostly been here's anara sitting on her perch they see each other and arra hisses
Starting point is 00:23:55 salem says yeah okay i'm fine i'll go the other way it's totally cool i didn't need to go that way expecting boundaries it sounds like they're respecting boundaries yes that's good yeah well but they're both better cats than mine combined and carter you heard me you heard me that sucks our cat's but man salem is talkative she just walks around going meow yeah oh and to your point about names it's important to know that in the the pet kingdom right the big two dogs and cats dogs you're better off with a short name the dog can get trained to cats don't give a shit what their name is no no you can call them you know they'll they're aware of their name when you use it when they're doing something wrong, you go, Salem?
Starting point is 00:24:35 Right. What? Okay, sorry. Yeah, sorry. Right. But it's more about tone, don't you think? Like, they'll hear you getting mad and they'll be like, oh, shit. Yeah, but you do want, like, especially if you got multiple cats, you want to be able to identify, you want them to be able to know which one you're talking to.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Yeah. Yeah, for sure. Well, that's good. Happy new home. A rescue, I assume. Rescue little kitty. Yeah, absolute rescue from the foothills animal shelter. Really nice facility, by the way.
Starting point is 00:25:00 I mean, sadly, they've got a lot of cats, and so it's, you know, they don't have tons of room in there, but, man, the cats were getting adopted left and right when we went in there, so. Nice. It's good to see they're doing a good job. Left and right. I'll post photos, you know, new photos and maybe a little video of her just meowing, just walking around meowing because it's cute. Put that in the Discord at frogpants.com slash discord. Yeah. Great idea.
Starting point is 00:25:28 All right. Real quick here. We've got a text that Claire needs to listen to. Okay. Okay. This is about Vegas, and it's a mystery person. We'll call them a mystery texter because they didn't leave their name. They said, Dear Slots and Blackjack, I'm very sorry.
Starting point is 00:25:45 I can't make it to TMS Vegas this year. I was especially looking forward to meeting Claire. My next unrequited love for future ex-or future ex-wife, maybe 2024. Claire, did you hear that? think of that? That's not, that's not creepy at all. Uh-huh. No, I don't think that, I don't think that's a Monica. No. Although she might, Monica will be mad that this person's trying to break into her territory here, but, you know, that ain't Monica. Yeah, no, I think she wouldn't put future ex-wife. I think Monica would just put my wife. My wife. Yeah, for sure. She does claim. So I don't know who this is. It sounds like maybe somebody was there last year. So, because the way they said, I'm sorry, I can't make it to PMS this year. This year.

Well, look forward to ClaireCon 23, or we can call it the Clarion call. Let's see, what else?
Starting point is 00:27:50 Clairpalooza. Clarity, 2023. Claritin, Vegas. Claritin. Ask your doctor if Claire is right for you. All right. I think so.
Starting point is 00:28:04 He sure does. Anyway, thanks for the text. 8014710462 is where you can send those. You can also send us emails, or sorry, voicemails like we played pre-show. If you don't know what we're talking about, you should become a patron. Let's do the news right now. Time for some late breaking news that definitely wasn't carried over for about three days while we're busy doing. other things.
Starting point is 00:28:31 And it's brought to you by. Yeah, fellow tadpooler Ender. Check out his rad Twitch channel at Twitch.tv. slash Ender LFG, as in looking for group. Ender LFG. And I'm hoping that he's got some Marvel chat or Marvel Snap stuff going on there
Starting point is 00:28:49 because I think he plays some of that. Oh, Fortnite, Tomb Raider. Yeah. He's a mixed, what do they call it? Variety streamer. It's a variety streamer. A variety streamer. He, the reason, okay, so you might say, well, that's interesting, kind of random that he's in there.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Well, he didn't even know I did this. So what I'm here to tell you is, in the Discord, we have this thing where it says, promote yourself. And people are usually putting, like, a live stream link when they're going live with whatever they're doing. So they may have a game stream or something like that. And I thought, why don't we start giving them a little sunlight? So if you're in there doing that, you might end up here. So if you're doing some kind of weird.
Starting point is 00:29:28 hot tub you know barely covering your wiener with a beer kind of stream and you don't want people to know about it then don't put it in that group all right yeah you know what leave out the first part just don't put it in that group yeah don't put in that group at all if you're doing if you're doing that yeah we don't want to we don't want to know but for the rest of you all you're good and you you might get showcased here when we don't have a regular spot all right let's get to the the news here that we've been putting off for so long yeah rare asteroid it's good to do this on a Tuesday because Bobby will be here later. A rare asteroid may be worth
Starting point is 00:30:01 70,000 times the global economy. All right? Okay. The worth of this rock, the worth of this hurtling rock, 70,000 times the amount that the current global economy of Earth is worth.
Starting point is 00:30:17 I guess I need to understand how, I don't understand how many works, apparently. How does it work? Where do you sell? this asteroid. Well, this is how NASA is so interested, they actually are sending a spaceship
Starting point is 00:30:33 to explore it. Okay. So anyway, Nash's mission to an asteroid could be worth 70 million times the global economy. It will be, that's supposed to happen this year. The space agency decided back in 2017 that humankind would benefit from a closer look at 16
Starting point is 00:30:49 Psyche. Sikey. You say the E? I didn't know that. I see the E on this one, because it's, I think it comes from the Greek or Roman psyche, Cuban psyche. So I like what's saying
Starting point is 00:31:02 his psyche is all out of why. It's like that, right? That kind of use? Yeah, yeah. Well, anyway, the psyche mission. I can be sure of that because I don't want to, there was a, is it Greek?
Starting point is 00:31:12 Yeah, psyche is the Greek goddess of the soul. Oh. So often represent them with butterfly wings. I should have called it something else. I don't like it. Anyway. Okay. It's like fine.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I was listening to a history podcast yesterday and they were talking about the origin. of the swastika and its deep historical stuff where it didn't mean anything like what the Nazis made it mean and how they converted it to mean what it meant and now how we're just you just can't use it now we're done like it's it's ruin humanity ruined the swastika stupid Germans but every once while run into a word like that and psyche I can't see that as a big flying rock for whatever reason right deal the psyche rock wait a minute yeah that's that song by by what's his face
Starting point is 00:31:56 that turned into Futurama the Futurama theme it's called I think that might I wonder if that's pronounced P-E-R-R-C-R-C-R-C-K P-S-Y-C-H-E-R-C-K It's by the electronic guy Where is it?
Starting point is 00:32:12 Pierre Henry Oh yeah Pierre-Henry Pierre? Pierre, not Pure Pierre. Pierre. Pierre is fun to say.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Pierre-F-F-F-G-E-R-H-R-E-R-R-R-R-E, probably pronounced P.L.R. It's this thing we're talking about, right? Yep. Okay. Whatever the original of that is. Are you playing? Are you, you see you play, that's the Futurama theme, right? I think so. It's a weird remix, though, because it's got like voice, voice stuff in it and some other stuff. But I don't think it's him. Yeah, if you, if you YouTube, want me, want me really quickly. Yeah, yeah, do it. Let's do. You want to dance around a potential, uh... Yep, we'll play it. We'll play it for the hottest second you guys have ever heard.
Starting point is 00:32:47 All right, cool. Here we go. Looks like this one right here. Okay. coming to you live in your discord right now. All right. And you'll want to jump ahead to, jump ahead to 38 seconds. Okay, I'm going to 30. 40 seconds.
Starting point is 00:33:09 40? All right. 40 seconds. All right, here we go. I'm at the 40 second mark. Let me unmute it. Let's see if we can get a taste. Oh, I can hear it.
Starting point is 00:33:26 So did he get credit for that, or was this like a riff on that? I'm sure he did. No, I'm sure he did. Okay. Curious about that. I love that song. Every time I hear it. Yeah, no, it's a great one.
Starting point is 00:33:38 Let's see. Composer Christopher Ting was heavily inspired by Henry's psyche rock when writing the theme to the popular animated cartoon show Futurama. The theme is so reminiscent of psychic rock that is considered a variation of the original. so interesting so i'm sure he does get uh uh does get uh credit and definitely got it here on the morning stream just now yep we got us but we got your back buddy yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah no one has a little accent over the east so i don't know if you pronounce it psyche rock when you're talking about that song but but that's great now that that we have a rock
Starting point is 00:34:13 hurtling towards uh earth or i don't know if it's hurling towards earth but it's out in space that's called psyche rock well this thing is called Well, let's see. So it was actually discovered in 1852. Oh, wow. Okay. It's a giant M-type asteroid, thought to be a partial core of a small planet that failed to fully form during the earliest days of our solar system. The metal-rich asteroid is about the size of Massachusetts.
Starting point is 00:34:38 Oh, Salem. Oh. Shape somewhat like a potato. Well, there's your problem. There's a problem right there. I mean, you can't any amorphous shape be considered to be kind of the shape of a potato? Yeah, name something that isn't perfectly round, and it's kind of a potato. That's just the rule.
Starting point is 00:34:56 Yeah, like, I don't know. Name a celestial object that is not potato shaped. If it's not a perfect sphere, it's probably potato shaped. Yeah, just about anything. I'm looking around the room. I see multiple things that I could describe as a potato, including this video I'm looking at right now of myself. Let's see here. The asteroid orbits between Mars and Jupiter at a distance of ranging of about 235 million.
Starting point is 00:35:21 to 309 million miles from the sun. I don't know what that is in your K-space points, but it's big. Let's see, the average diameter is about 140 miles, roughly the distance between L.A. and San Diego. So that's the size of the thing. Anyway, the reason it's worth all this money is it is just jam-packed stocked with, like, rare earth mineral stuff. So everything from gold to silver to diamond stuff to like... Gotcha. That's why. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:48 So you could tear that thing apart and make it a bunch of money. money, I guess. Would it destroy the world's economy? Like all of a sudden we have this influx of space gold and space diamonds and now it's like, oh, great, we've got, now all those things are worthless because we now have a rock that we can just pull out our, press our E key and mine and get all of the good stuff out of it. If there was a way to do it, then yeah, I guess so. Like if one country controlled it, I think so. I don't know if it would destroy the economy, but it would definitely make things not very even. Not that they're that even now.
Starting point is 00:36:23 It's like discovering a planet that's full of Bitcoin. Oh, my God. It just destroyed the Bitcoin even further. Oh, no. What do we do with our space coins now? Do you notice not a single? Not a single crypto ad of any kind during the Super Bowl. None.
Starting point is 00:36:41 None. You're absolutely right. Yeah. Zero. Like not even a reference, not an NFT, nothing. The closest thing you got was like a mobile game. You had to, if you wanted, you could scan the QR code at the screen and go to the game. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Just totally dumb. But zero, zero, nothing. Wow. Yeah. We went from like 12 of those last year to zero. Yeah. Interesting. Very, very telling.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Yeah, that's interesting. All right. Well, good luck with you giant rock NASA. Let's move on to this story. If you watch Mulan with your kid, you might wind up in prison. Okay. I'm sure there's no nuance or any sort of there's no step two, three, four, or five between those two things. Well, let's check the steps.
Starting point is 00:37:31 This is what could happen if Arizona lawmakers get their way. All right. They got a new law that's weird. The Arizona legislature on Tuesday hit a new, I guess that had been previous Tuesday, last Tuesday. Hit a new high in the hysteria over the most critical and horrifying dangers. threaten our children. They are going after drag queens again, only this time they're also going after parents. Senate Bill 1698 would criminalize anyone who exposes a child to a drag performance. The problem is, so if they take them to a live thing, a hairspray or, you know,
Starting point is 00:38:03 something like that, that's what they're, that's what they're aiming for. A RuPaul Drag Race, live, live taping of RuPaul's Drag Race. Exactly. But the problem is, the law, the language of the thing is so loose and poorly written. Yeah. That it could apply to you, Brian, sitting down and watching Mulan the cartoon from the 90s. Sure, sure. When those Army dudes all dressed up like ladies to get stuff done. I don't remember what the deal was. So I guess episodes of Monty Python now are potential.
Starting point is 00:38:34 All of it. Anything where anybody dresses up like a lady. That's how they've done the language. Most of Flip Wilson's career is shot now. Yeah. So it's just so freaking lame. I know. I felt that F word coming out again, and I agreed with it while we were doing it.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Yes, exactly. Sometimes that F word, like, really, it stands on the edge and says, nope, nope, got to keep this show, PG-13s. I don't know why people, let me ask this question. Outfire. What the hell? I don't even think this is a, exactly. I don't even think this is.
Starting point is 00:39:10 There's too many, bugs bunny, all of them, all of them. And I know, and I know that most of these, you know, most of these conservists probably watched and enjoyed Mrs. Doubtfire and bosom buddies and money well probably not Monty Python they don't get humor but which is why they watch Mrs. Doubtfire oh
Starting point is 00:39:30 oh damn damn son but yeah no it's like you know oh I got corrupted because I watched bosom buddies and Kipp and Henry had to dress up as women to live in that all women's apartment here's my here's
Starting point is 00:39:45 what I would like to say to our listeners Klinger. Great. Another great example. Oh, can't watch, can't watch MASH. We have a mixed listenership, so I want to say this to some people. Okay. All right. If you claim to be a group that believes in personal freedom, then you should let everyone have their personal freedom. And that includes people who may want to,
Starting point is 00:40:17 perform in a drag show or go to one. If you're the same people that say, don't tell me how to raise my kids, you shouldn't tell other people how to raise their kids. To me, it's that simple. I don't know why this is complicated. You either believe in that or you freaking don't. So quit saying it if you don't. If you're going to make dumb laws like this, but claim you're all about personal freedom
Starting point is 00:40:43 and choice. Yeah. How am I to believe you? you lying sacks of turd there that's all I'm saying well done nicely nicely I'll get emails but I don't give a shit at this point I don't care you can email me all you want let's move on to one more story
Starting point is 00:41:01 okay all right a young dolphin skull oh this is sad a little bit awa was found in luggage at Detroit airport by customs agents oh man it is okay US customs and border protection agents made a fishy discovery last week well they're not fish Dolphins aren't fish. Yeah, they're mammals.
Starting point is 00:41:20 They're mammals, right? Are they? Yeah, dolphins are mammals. Oh, crap. This is one of those, like, I know whales are mammals. Hold on a sec. I'm pretty sure they're mammals. Right.
Starting point is 00:41:31 I don't want to... I think so. I'm almost a thousand percent. Yes, they are, they are cetaceans. They are mammals. Yeah, and they breathe air through that hole and all that. Correct. Pretty high-end zoology going on here on the show.
Starting point is 00:41:47 That's right. It's Scott Johnson, marine biologist. That's right. I got my research assistant, Brian had a bit back there making sure they're mammals. It's fantastic. Anyway, so here's what they did. They found this thing while accompanied or unaccompanied as international baggage. They don't know why it was there. The bag had been separated by owners during transit.
Starting point is 00:42:07 The agency said in a news release and underwent routine X-ray screening when it re-entered the U.S. During the screening, agricultural specialists noticed a skull-shaped object in the luggage, or in the luggage, in the language. The language. Officials with CBP and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service determined it was a skull, believed to be a young dolphins skull. According to the CBP, animal parts or products,
Starting point is 00:42:29 including skulls are subject to import and export restrictions, prohibitions, permits, or certificates. Importing or exporting marine mammals is prohibited. Were they on hand? But they had the TSA going, oh, hold on a second. that looks a little funny there, and I'm a marine biologist. I wonder, yeah, I wonder if they've got somebody at the airport, just one person who's with Border Patrol or Fish and Wildlife or whatever,
Starting point is 00:42:56 or if they had to say, no, you've got to wait here while we get in, while we call these people in, probably the latter. I can't imagine that they have enough staff to do all the other things they need to do, you know, Border Patrol and Department of Fish and Wildlife to actually have somebody stationed at each. Oh, Mac addict says they do. They do. They do have somebody from, well, Border Patrol, I guess, doesn't make sense. You'd have to have one at each
Starting point is 00:43:18 international airport. But fish and wildlife, I would think you'd have to call in. Mac addict, I need a citation. Give me a citation. I can't. We can't live in a world where one chatter goes, they do and we have to believe it. You've got to provide me with some proof there, buddy.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Right, yes. Let's see. Let's see your proof. Anyway, so they yeah, they don't know where it came from or why it's in there, but now, you know, all right, so I understand, I mean, I guess importing or exporting marine animals
Starting point is 00:43:49 is prohibited but it's like what about if you bring you know one of those dried starfish I guess it's not a mammal so never mind that's a
Starting point is 00:43:59 that's just a what is that what are those those are not crustaceans or are they what you call those because it's is it because they're like crabs
Starting point is 00:44:09 exoskeleton yeah but they don't Starfish don't have exoskeal their mosque says the chat mollusk maybe mollusks yeah is a mollusk it's a category not a not a yeah okay yeah and so like that's why sand dollars and uh um starfish dried up starfish and stuff like that are are uh okay but any part so what is it is there's no other parts of a whale like whalebone uh a whalebone uh lamp
Starting point is 00:44:40 well i've seen whalebone uh what have we seen with bell well you have we seen with bell well You see, they have penis bones and stuff. You feel like there's a word, there's a word that's frequently said after whalebone. Whale bone. What is that we're trying to say? It's a thing. Scrimshaw says the chap. What the hell does that mean?
Starting point is 00:45:01 Corset? Whirlbone corset? Maybe. Is it a corset? Old dresses used? Okay, yeah, a lot of people are saying corset's a whalebone corset. Really? Like they would make those corset things like the 1800s?
Starting point is 00:45:13 Isn't that just the way that it's, that it's not really made from whale bones, but it's made in the shape because it's a supportive structure to the, the under musculature of the dress. Yeah, right? So they were made with corsets were made with baleen.
Starting point is 00:45:31 Okay, the scrimshaw is a scroll work, engravings and carvings done in boner ivory, usually made from sperm whales. Boner, boner ivory, you said. Boner. Well, maybe, see, the skull, maybe the skull of the, of the, the freaking dolphin dolphin i can't think of the damn word uh maybe they grind that up
Starting point is 00:45:50 make it into like aphrodisiacs or something yeah right i don't know grind anything up until it's an aphrodisiac that's true you could grind this show up and tell me that that's true somebody has yeah uh let us know if that's you all right that'll that'll do it for newsday we are going to take a break when we come back bill will be here uh we actually got a call for bill which will play when he gets here we also have a call for bobby will play when he gets here. So lots of people using the voicemail line, which I'm very happy about. That's coming up after this break. Brian's got a song. He will play it now. What do you got? I've got a new song by a band called The Bayonets. Now, get a load of this. Here's all the people that are in the bayonets.
Starting point is 00:46:26 It's a trio. Brian Ray, who's played with, he's part of the Paul McCartney's band. He played with Edda James. Oliver Lieber, who's the son of Jerry Lieber, the guy who wrote a ton of songs. and Argentinian musician Lucretia Lopez Sands with help from Adam McDougal from the Black Crows and Davy Farragher from Elvis Costello. I mean, there is so much legacy in this band that you would say, well, it probably is really good. And guess what?
Starting point is 00:46:56 If you said that, you'd be right. Here's a brand new single from a band called The Bayonets. It's called Argentina, and it's out now. Here's The Bayonets featuring Brian Ray, Argentina. Wheels down, I'm back to town. Is it a dream or am I awake? Grab a cab and pay the tab.

Go check it out, and you'll find some other stuff, some older stuff by the bayonets. That's also really, really good. Nice. Does this make you want to, this right here?

I'm a Depperdan man. I love that movie so much, but I always forget, I forget how many Cohen Brothers movies that, oh, I can't think he was name all of a sudden, Bill Dootree from King of the Hill. The guy, him who just did the voice. What's his name? Stephen Root, geez.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Stephen Root, geez, Louise. I was like, David Keckner, no, Stephen Root, yes. I always forget how many those movies he's in. in. He's in a lot of Cohen Brothers movies, and I rewatch No Country for Old Man. And man, does he get a shotgun to a rough place in that movie? Does he really? Oh, man. Yeah. What's his name? Gets him pretty bad. Sugar. Anton, Sugar. Sugar. Hail sugar. Sugar. I'm being chased by a man named Sugar.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Anyway. That's going to do it for that little break there. Let's do now the bringing on of Bill. Okay. Of Bill, yeah. I always forget the difference in Bobby and Bill, but Bill's easy to remember. because his name is Bill. Let's see here. His name is Bill. Bill. Speaking of Bill Dr. Treve, our little intro here.
Starting point is 00:52:43 Your bat caves open there, Bill. It's Bill. You know him is Bill Durand. That's his real name, his full name. But you also might know him as Jim Beard on Twitter. He's the guy who runs this punished props business up there in the Pacific Northwest. Has a rad YouTube channel about it. Comes on the show and talks about making stuff.
Starting point is 00:52:59 And hopefully today you'll be as inspired as we often are with Bill here. Hi, Bill. Welcome back. Hello. morning happy to be here good morning good to have you very nice to have you uh what what oh you know what i want to play this call for you first you want to hear something real quick okay so this is about this is about legos and your whole conversation about cleaning them and stuff and uh we got this call uh especially for you here you go hey there mr scott and brian i'm calling on uh bill's tms
Starting point is 00:53:27 segment uh i just wanted to say that uh in addition to retro consoles his tip about hydrogen peroxide works amazing on classic Lego sets. I just finished cleaning mine up, and they are as glorious as they were on Christmas morning in 1987. So for any of you tadpoolers out there that are plastic Lego fans, give it a shot. Just don't use it with pieces that have stickers. Thanks, guys. Love the content.
Starting point is 00:53:49 See you. Nice. I guess that makes sense. It's probably all the same plastic type, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's probably all EBS plastic.
Starting point is 00:53:57 ABS, yeah. And if your Legos got left anywhere near UV light, they probably got discolored. little bit. A little yellowed or whatever, yeah. This is a little bit side note, so I apologize for this question, but do either of you have a good suggestion for clean, like, best way to clean your computer displays? Because often, like, this isn't glass. Oh, monitors?
Starting point is 00:54:18 Yeah, especially if they're not glass. Glass makes sense, you can use glass cleaner. But when it's like the, whatever this is, the more matte finish. Yes, right. I never know what to use. You still want to spray a, what I still use is like a spray on a lint-free cloth. Like an eyeglass cleaning cloth, but don't spray directly on your screen. And then...
Starting point is 00:54:39 What do you use it for spray? Just like Windex, he kind of? Oh, I'll tell you. I'll show you. Okay. See, this is what I was hoping for here. Oh, yeah. Brian's going to grab his unit and bring it back.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Yeah, I don't know what it's called, but I have some kind of spray that's specifically designed for monitors. I'm always afraid. This is a EVO premium screen cleaner spray is what I use. EVO screen cleaner. All right. EBO screen cleaner. And I use this because with the gig where I'm cleaning machines, both digitally and physically, this is what I use on the screens for all of them. And it's very, obviously, it's not abrasive.
Starting point is 00:55:21 Yeah, and you're using that soft glasses style thing. Soft glasses thing. And then actually I have a dust-free that's more like a terry cloth. So I'll actually do, yeah, here's the spray. I'll put a link in the tadpole here for everybody. Oh, yeah, they've got sprays and wipes I could get from them, it looks like. Yes. Yeah, and I think actually there comes with the lint-free cloth and then the tary cloth.
Starting point is 00:55:49 So once you do, once you hit it with the lint-free cloth, again, you spray the cloth, wipe the screen, and then you use the microfiber cloth afterwards to give it a polish. just a really quick polish. All right. I'm going to get some of this because I just, I let mine get so dirty for so long because I'm always afraid to clean it. But I'm every day spitting on this thing every day doing shows. I probably spit on it just now with a pee.
Starting point is 00:56:14 Spit. Yeah, there's pee. There's peas all over my screen. Anyway, well, that's a fun side note. Now we bring it back. We pull this car back into the garage and we see what Bill's doing. Bill, what are you making this week? What are you doing?
Starting point is 00:56:26 What do you suggest and what's going on? So I wanted to talk about technical drawing, one of my favorite topics. All right. And I still do a lot of it, too. Now, back in high school, we still had old school technical and architectural drawing classes. This was in the late 90s. We used pencil and paper, T squares and triangles. We drew everything by hand.
Starting point is 00:56:50 Yeah. And I took all of those classes twice. I was a bit of a nut. I was quite into it. Nothing at all wrong with that. Nope, not to brag too much, but in 11th grade, I got the technical or architectural drawing award. Nice. Oh, too.
Starting point is 00:57:05 Well done. Yeah. But what's really cool is we had three years of that. And then in my senior year, they gutted that lab. They got rid of it. I actually wish that. And then I got my hands on some of those desks and stuff. But anyway, they got rid of that lab, replace it with a computer lab.
Starting point is 00:57:26 And my senior year, we learned how to do the same thing. an AutoCat which I think is actually pretty cool to have learned both ways to do it I agree and I still use both I still draw lots of stuff by hand and I do lots of stuff in CAD as well
Starting point is 00:57:41 so recently I had an inch to do some technical drawing and I just tweeted this out I tweeted a picture of a drawing I did it's an orthographic projection of a Lego brick speaking of Lego okay so it's three different views of a Lego brick
Starting point is 00:57:58 with all of the dimensions so that hopefully at some point I could recreate it in CAD and I want to make a metal Lego brick on my C and C machine. I think that's really cool. Yeah. Not like, because we all, you know, we had the sets that came with a silver
Starting point is 00:58:14 like a, like, looked like metal brick. But you want an actual metal brick. I really do. Would you have it solid or would it be hollow? It would be exactly like another Lego brick. Yeah. So you could put a piece underneath it if you needed to. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Would you make it larger, though, like a bigger, heavier one, or would you go with, like, the size of a standard? Right now, the idea is to make one that could link with other Lego bricks. Because there's a specific challenge to that. The tolerances are quite tight to get it to fit with just a little friction, but not too much. Yeah. So that's kind of the challenge I'm going after, but a big honking brass Lego brick that is like a paperweight or something would be kind of awesome too. And just to make sure you're doing the best Lego brick, which is the eight, pips two by four uh pips lego brick right i'm doing the two by two just because um okay it's a second
Starting point is 00:59:06 that's the second best lego brick it seems like smaller would be a little quicker for what i eventually fail and have to remake this thing sure sure that makes sense i think the little scler and all the tolerances sure and the square ones you could do i don't know i think that's actually pretty cool i would go with the square one as well but once i nail uh once i figure out all the tolerances on everything, then I could extrapolate that to larger bricks. Love it. Love it. That's really cool. And then again, technical drawing is
Starting point is 00:59:34 that's the whole point where these tolerances matter, right? Yeah, yeah. And where I can track that information as well. So most technical drawings, we think of a technical drawing. It's an orthographic projection. So it's several drawings of different sides of the same object, right?
Starting point is 00:59:50 What your goal is to do is these different sides describe all the features of that object and you use as many views as you'd need to get all those features on as well as all of the dimension. So if you look at my Lego brick, you'll see all the features, little Pips described with lines and circles and everything. Yeah. The dotted lines are features that are inside that you couldn't see from that view, but exist on the inside. Oh my God. Yeah. I loved, that was one of my favorite classes was a technical drawing class, like doing the, like you said, not just the T-square, but then you also
Starting point is 01:00:26 had the horizontal rule that was affixed on a chain to both sides, so you could only move it flat up and down. You know, for whatever reason, I just connected so much with that class, and so now when I do stuff in
Starting point is 01:00:43 CAD and, you know, making stuff for myself 3D design, it's like, it just harkens back to that, but I would love, you know, like I've got the Khyber Crystal thing. I would love to actually make a print showing that as a, like, a blueprint. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:01 Oh, that's cool. I love blueprints as art. I want more blueprints hanging up on my walls. Yes. Yeah, those are cool. Why are they so cool? I don't know. They're just really cool.
Starting point is 01:01:11 They're cool for us. Techie guys who, as kids, took things apart to figure out how they worked. And, yeah. Yeah, there's something about it. And also the blue with the white, like, handwritten notes and things. Like, that's so rad. I love it. Yes, that fun.
Starting point is 01:01:26 that was a tecton, that tecton font that was like the perfect one for architectural renderings. Oh, yeah. I wouldn't, I would have a room full of these on the wall if I had the wherewithal to take the time to do it. Because I just, like all your favorite things, do one of a broken out lightsaber. Do one of the, sure. So, how about like a Game Boy? How cool would that be? A Mattel or a, no, was it Mattel?
Starting point is 01:01:51 Kenner, a Millennium Falcon. Yeah. Yeah. Any of that stuff. Oh, my gosh. Or a game gear. Yeah, game gear. I like blown out stuff where it's like all the pieces are like exploded.
Starting point is 01:02:07 Yeah, an exploded view. Those are my favorite. Yeah, so cool. Actually, when I was making the Blade Runner revolver, I found an exploded view of a real bulldog revolver, which is what was used in the original prop. And that one drawing pretty much gave me everything I needed to know about the mechanics of that thing, which is really cool. Yeah, that's awesome.
Starting point is 01:02:27 So the idea with this technical drawing is that I can hand it to a fabricator, and that drawing will have everything they need to remake that part. You're communicating something to another person. So nowadays, I don't hand my drawings to other people, but I do still do lots of technical drawings for myself. So if I'm designing something, like if I'm designing some shop furniture, or especially if I'm making anything on my lane, I'll do a little drawing ahead of time.
Starting point is 01:02:54 And it doesn't have to be with, you know, straight lines or anything. Most of my technical drawings are freehand in my notebook just to describe the features and dimensions of something. And then, while I'm making it, again, especially on the lathe, I have an image I can reference before I do something permanent and stupid. So, constantly refer back to this drawing, double check my work before I ruin my part. sure yeah yeah so can happen you know you gotta you gotta be careful but if you're doing metal stuff it just feel like the stakes are higher right yeah all right it's like i can't i can't just melt this down again or i can't just i mean i guess you could in the right circumstances but it just feels like you don't yeah you don't that piece off you throw it in the the box of shame
Starting point is 01:03:43 and then you start over yep and then like 10 years later you just happen to be looking in the box of shame and you relive it all over again yeah oh yeah yeah the pain comes back i don't know i keep that box. Some of it. I mean, do you keep your too many or a lot of your mistakes? Or what do you do? No, I throw away a lot of stuff.
Starting point is 01:04:03 Although with metal barstock, a lot of times the leftovers from a mistake are still useful for another smaller part. So I have a box of scrap metal that I keep because it's still useful. That makes sense, yeah. About it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:16 So I recommend anyone given this a try. Something, a fun exercise we did in high school was to take an object from your house, something you own and do a three view drawing of it. Maybe challenge yourself, maybe draw something a little more tough than an iPhone. Find something with store features.
Starting point is 01:04:35 But find something small in your house and try and do a drawing of it. It's fun. I sat down for an hour and drew that Lego brick and I had a great time. So even if you don't have a... It's like a lot of art. Like, sometimes it's good just not to have a point. you know sometimes like we were just talking about this this weird web stuff
Starting point is 01:04:55 brian earlier sometimes you just want to do it for the sake of doing it and uh yeah it's like scratch an itch yeah how you and i scow was talking about like wanting to have things that are outrageously large versions of small things or outrageously small versions of large oh yeah yeah love that stuff i don't know what it is on my desk to say look look at this giant two by four Lego brick that i've 3d printed yeah no reason whatsoever yeah Marble at how large it is. Yeah. Compared to a normal one.
Starting point is 01:05:24 You want to get my attention. Seriously, all you have to do is make a giant telephone or a huge pencil or a little tiny. It doesn't even matter. Oh, my God. How cool would it be to have like a palm trio that's like, you know, the size of a small TV? Yeah, like a big one, a big device that we think of as small normally or the opposite. Like Brian sent me this. Let me tell you what's cool.
Starting point is 01:05:49 Tempest is cool. by itself. Tempest is rad. Tempest arcade game, even cooler if you have the arcade game. You know what's cooler than all of that? A little tiny 116 model of it. No, I'd argue having a full-sized Tempest is slightly cooler than having a... Well, listen, Mr. Fancy Boy, we know...
Starting point is 01:06:08 No, I... But you know what I mean? Like, I want to make a tiny arcade. That's my... Like, if I have a goal about fabricating anything, it's to make just a little mock arcade with the shitty carpet and the coin machines and a freaking basketball hoop thing where you, you know, you get the tickets. I want to do all that. I'll never do it.
Starting point is 01:06:27 Adam 12 says three-fourth skill. No, this is not the, this is not the arcade one-up version, Adam 12. This is the full-size arcade tempest in my basement here. Yeah, he might be talking about a little one. I don't know, but. Oh, he might, no, he's, yeah, I mean, that's the, the arcade one-up is the three-four-scale. No, this is the original. This one still has cigarette burn.
Starting point is 01:06:49 in the corner from where somebody sit there cigarette in the wrong place on it and melt a little bit of the panel. The only way to have an arcade machine. There's a little bit of space for quarters in the top panel so you can say you can call a next game and that sort of thing. So jealous of that thing. That's awesome. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:05 Exactly. I'm not disparaging you. I'm not, this is not part of my degradation, King Catam 12. No. No, just want to correct you and say, oh, no. Plus he asked nicely. You know, that's the difference. Yes, you did. Exactly. Yeah, this is the part of the exchange you have to pay attention to. How did you ask and how did Brian answer? Speaking of, and really quickly, speaking of which, and, oh, we think we did talk a little
Starting point is 01:07:25 bit about this when we were talking about animatronics a couple weeks ago, Bill, but the, yeah, that company New Wave Toys that makes all of these one-six arcade machines and even has a one-six change machine that's a USB power bank and stuff like that, also has now a Zoltar, you know, the machine that Tom Hanks wishes he was big, or I guess the little kid wishes he was Tom Hanks with... You still see those in Vegas once in a while, and they're awesome. I don't have a lot of nostalgia for one,
Starting point is 01:07:54 because I don't think I ever saw one in real life when I was a kid, but the big references about is all I have. That's all I have for them. And that's what it is for me, too. It's like, oh yeah, I love that in big, but yeah, I never went to the boardwalk on the seaside in New Jersey and put a quarter into a
Starting point is 01:08:10 one of those. But it does come out with little cards that give you your fortune, too. Like, they've got little miniature fortunes. double scum new wave toys is the company that makes all of these really cool one-sixth machines they even have token machines and it's like a u s u sb charger as well or something that's that's the one that's the usb power bank and it's got a little red-on airline on it too it's really really cool do you just bring that one up do you just talk about it yeah that's all right it's totally fine dang it um i i just take issue with their recent missile command because they've got a uh they've got a a a screen that's like a bulbous to make it look like the old style CRT and if you have any light in the room that you're playing
Starting point is 01:08:54 missile command on you get a reflection. You get a light reflection on it so you have to be playing it near a pitch black room to enjoy the missile command. lame. I don't know why they do that. That should be standard not to be glary. Exactly. But anyway
Starting point is 01:09:10 sorry Bill. Back to Bill. Back to Bill. Yeah. Metal Legos. Yeah. So that's cool. So how soon until we get to see your handiwork on that thing? I'm not sure. This won't be a video or anything. This is just a wild creative hair I had. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:26 Nothing wrong with that. Nothing wrong with that. Well, I love this kind of stuff and always love what you bring to the show. You always bring something a little extra. I'm sure today's no difference. So what do you got there, man? I've got a fun video from the folks over at NerdForge. They make all sorts of really neat stuff.
Starting point is 01:09:42 um so the completely blanking on her name but the the woman who uh who uh host it martina there we go thanks britt she's missing a finger her making she's missing a pinky so she made her own prosthetic pinky with a 3D printer which i think is just the coolest right that's really did she get into what happened to the pinky table saw table saw did it yeah and that's all the information she gave and that's enough. All right. I like that she's using making technology
Starting point is 01:10:13 to replace something that she lost with making technology. Like, live by the saw, die by the saw, basically. That's cool. She lost the other pinky
Starting point is 01:10:23 during this build. Oh, she has a cool studio space. I kind of want to steal it. And it's such a cool little steam punky-looking little finger, basically,
Starting point is 01:10:34 is what she's got there. It's awesome. Is it the kind of thing she could wear all the time, do you think or just when she needs it? Maybe, maybe not. I think maybe if it was just a little more durable, I imagine this thing would
Starting point is 01:10:45 with actual use would eventually break or fall apart. It's all 3D printed parts. Oh, that's wild. Very cool. And I'll have to watch the video I assume it moves like when she moves the part of her pinky that little part that's still there.
Starting point is 01:11:02 The nub, yeah. It moves the rest of the finger. Also, she I mean, she's basically both proving and disproving my whole take on you don't need your pinkies. Because I don't think you do. If we all lost her pinkies, it'd be fine. We would cope. But she's like, yeah, I can cope, but also
Starting point is 01:11:17 I made one. I'd rather not have to. Yeah. If I can make it through this whole adventure with all my fingers intact, I'd prefer that. Yeah, absolutely. I'd like to keep all the parts I came with. Yeah, me too, actually. Now that I think about it. Pretty attached to all of it.
Starting point is 01:11:34 They don't grow back. We're not like those weird worms where they can grow back after you or whatever, you know, can't chop my head off and have it come back. So use what you've got and keep it. Okay, everybody. Could we, you know, we could still use her influence to create additional fingers if it means we could do things better. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:11:54 Now we're cooking with gas, as the kids say. Now we're talking. Yeah, it's what the AI art machines are trying to tell us. Yeah, this whole time. Humans should have six fingers. That's right. Well, there you go. It's a build around.
Starting point is 01:12:07 everybody, punish props.com is the place to go if any of this is interesting to you because he covers all sorts of cool making stuff and his YouTube channel is no difference. So please check it out, please, please. Bill, anything else you want to say? Nope, that'll do it. Good hanging with you guys. Have a great week. See you next week. Fine out. Okay. All right. All right. All right. Bobby, I hope you're ready for this, man, because you're coming in the show now.
Starting point is 01:12:37 You're going to be here. You're going to be on tap. I can't find his damn intro. There it is. Science. That's right. You heard me. Science with Bobby Frankenberger,
Starting point is 01:12:50 whose camera is blown the f out. Oh, that looks good. Looks good now. Yeah, it's that first initial Discord like, oh, all the pixels? Yeah, every pixel. Every pixel. That's what we believe in here. Every pixel has a voice.
Starting point is 01:13:03 Hey, it's good to have you here. What's up with Bobby these days? How are you, man? I'm doing great. How are you guys? Good. Do you hear about that expensive meteor thing? Do you have a take on that? Or whether we should go get it? Well, the reason NASA's going to check it out is because of the fact that it's, they suspect that it's like the core of a proto planet or an early planet that never became a planet. So they want to study it to see, you know, steps in that process and learn things about how planets are formed and whatnot.
Starting point is 01:13:35 So the side benefit is it might be worth bang. But really, there's a lot of science. Money, money, money, money. That's right. Dollar bills, y'all. All right. Well, that's cool. I got a call.
Starting point is 01:13:46 I'm going to play for you for the beginning here just to get out of the way. Let's do it. Enjoy. Just looking to the episode where you guys stole all the science stories from Bobby's, but he's talking about flying in the airplane. And I just wanted to say, Bobby, I could listen to you to talk about flying for hours. I really like it. Have a great day.
Starting point is 01:14:05 Singer from Wisconsin. A little bit of Patrick at the end. Wow, channeling both Nicholas Cage and Patrick Cajon. It's a lot to chew there. So, I mean, yeah, you're obviously, when you're passionate about a thing, people like hearing you talk about it, I think is what that says. Gosh, if only there was a podcast that you did about your flying experiences that he could listen to you, talk about flying for hours. Thank you, Brian. Weird.
Starting point is 01:14:29 Oh, yeah. I enjoy also talking about my flying, obviously. So it's nice that people like it. But, yeah, I do actually on a not. regular basis like you know there's no schedule to me doing it but I do have a like little diary podcast that I do called Diary of a Student Pilot you can just search for that it's um there's a handful of episodes out because I just started it like a couple months ago but um I'm I'm actually about to put another one on there but um yeah if you like
Starting point is 01:14:57 hearing me talk about flying I get on there and sort of chronicle my flying it is fascinating yeah I do I do like hearing about it and not just about like oh Here's what I did today. It's also like, yeah, I'm struggling because I had a really bad flight day today. And I don't know where to go from this. And what do I, you know, what's my next? Yeah, that was a recent one. It was.
Starting point is 01:15:19 Yeah. And because it started as like a way for me to keep up with friends and family with like letting them know how things are going. But also I thought, you know, what if someone stumbles on this who's going through or thinking about flying lessons themselves for private pilots? and same thing I'm doing and when I looked for those sorts of things from the perspective of someone going through it
Starting point is 01:15:43 it didn't it doesn't exist at least not in the way that I was looking for so what's your take on the Iron Eagle method of listening to bad 80s metal music while you're flying does it help you is it a good thing I actually heard a story on an aviation podcast
Starting point is 01:16:01 I do listen to of some of some flight instructor who was doing a every two years as a pilot you have to go as a private pilot you have to go through a process of getting with a flight instructor and basically they have to sign off to say you're still okay to fly you have to take like another it's not as intense as a test and it's not with an examiner but it's with a flight instructor and it's sort of like refreshing your skills and everything and so this flight instructor was sitting with a guy who insisted that he flew best when he was listening to like iron maiden or something like that really yeah uh wow okay i'm trying to think
Starting point is 01:16:39 how would that make me feel iron maiden in the sky i'd need something more like i don't know what would motivate iron maiden's appropriate though because that guy the what's his face jolly it uh is a pilot oh is he i didn't know that um i'm trying to think what i what would i listen to in a plane to get me motivate i can't think of anything that i would really jam to I like Bye-bye Miss American Because all I can think of is the cover of
Starting point is 01:17:03 License to Ill with the crash hanging on the front It's all It's like folded into itself Or whatever The thing crashed real hard It's not good
Starting point is 01:17:11 Foodfighters I'm sorry Bruce from Iron Main Julie it's from Def Leopard Yes thank you for the correction Oh Bruce Dickinson then Okay Nice
Starting point is 01:17:17 Well run for the hills As he would say Or fly to the hills Fly to the hills Well excellent Bobby Let's fly by night Oh yeah
Starting point is 01:17:27 Fly by night Bear not heard Bill, tell us what, or Bill, Bobby, tell us what you brought with you for stuff today. Yeah, how are you not Bill and why? What are we talking about? I have no idea today. We're going to talk about kids. We have kids.
Starting point is 01:17:42 We all have kids. Yeah. Yep. So let's talk about kids and their brains. Let's do it. So kids tend to be pretty attached to their mothers, right? Certainly for the first nine months. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:56 they're right up in it and sometimes longer depending on how you how you plan to feed them but yeah kids tend to be pretty attached they seem to have like a different kind of bond I think with their mothers and I don't think that that's just because of you know
Starting point is 01:18:16 typically who is at home raising them because I am a stay at home dad my wife is the one who works and and they still our kids still have a different sort of bond with their mom but that eventually changes right so at least the nature of that and how much they are attached to their to their mothers or parents in general but um have you noticed that before like because your kids are older yeah as they get to a certain age they're
Starting point is 01:18:51 no longer quite as attached to their parents well they shouldn't be I hope they're not I mean The goal is, sorry, I know everything's going to be a little bit different. People are still very close to their kids. I'm extremely close to three of my kids. However, you want them, that closeness isn't necessarily the same as like dependence. You want them to not feel dependent on you anymore. You want them to feel like they can go and be comfortable in the world without you being there for every minute. If they feel that way, if they feel the opposite of that, then I feel like I did something wrong, you know?
Starting point is 01:19:24 Right. That's my thought, too. my goal as a parent is to make it so my kids eventually don't need me anymore. Yeah. And that they irritate both me and Tina equally as opposed to just irritating one of us more than the other. Yeah, you don't want equal irritation. I get it. Yes, sure.
Starting point is 01:19:42 I love you, Tristan. I know you're listening. So that usually happens around the teenage years is when they're starting to take less of an interest in their parents, right? So why do you think that might be? think it's so universal that in the teenage years that starts to happen oh gosh um what's going on wendy has actually literally told us this before like on the show we had a whole thing about why those is it kind of is because it goes the goes the other direction for them on a personal level right they want less involvement it's it's not a matter of like saying i need you know i've got i'm more
Starting point is 01:20:22 independent, it's more like I want less watching and managing, micromanaging by my parents. And so it's like a forced self-independence to get away from those things that they deem as embarrassing or evil for, you know, I think that's a good, I think that's a good guess because they're trying to discover who they are and independence and is part of that and everything. I think another thing that's happening around teenage years is those middle school years when you're finding who you are, how you fit in socially and stuff like that, right? Sure. So there's also some evidence that this isn't just because of socialization and interaction with peers,
Starting point is 01:21:11 but there might be something going on in the brain too. And that it coincides with what's going on there. So research, there was some research done by, Scientist Daniel Abrams of Stanford University School of Medicine. What they did was they scanned the brains of kids age 7 to 16 as they heard the voices of their mothers. Okay. All right. They wanted to know what was going on inside their brains when they heard the voices of their mothers.
Starting point is 01:21:38 And to be very scientific about this, they decided they just wanted to be the voices. They were curious about what would happen just at the sound of the voice. So they had recordings of their mothers saying gibberish words that weren't that weren't real. So it wouldn't be the context or the content of the things that they were saying. They couldn't get anything from the words themselves just from the sounds. Right. And so they're just hearing the sounds of their mother's voices. And so what they looked at was for little kids, age seven, the younger half of those kids, age seven to 12.
Starting point is 01:22:12 What they saw in their brains was that their brains responded more strongly to their mother's voice than to the voices of strangers, right? Especially in the areas of the brain that were responsible for reward and paying attention. Whenever they heard their mother's voice, those areas lit up a lot. But all over the brain, they would see this, not just in those two areas, but it was just particularly strong in those two areas for reward and attention. But all over the brain lit up more strongly when their mother's voices were heard than when strangers' voices were heard, which makes sense.
Starting point is 01:22:48 Sure, totally makes sense. That's exactly what you'd hope for and expect. You'd want kids to be tuned in to their parents and in particular, the mother who is historically or evolutionarily maybe the typical caregiver of children, right? Yeah. They literally feed you from their body. Like, it's the most connect. They not only carried you and nurtured you in the womb, but then they are the ones that exited you and then immediately started you. and then immediately started feeding you,
Starting point is 01:23:21 like, as much as I like to be a dad, and as much as I think dads are cool and dads are crucial and all that, it's the ladies who really get the job done, you know. Sure. Right, right. There is an undeniable physiological bond that happens, right? But that interesting thing,
Starting point is 01:23:40 that is maybe expected, of brains lighting up more when their mother's voices are heard rather than stranger's voices. when they hit the teenage years, the opposite starts to happen. This is what this study found. And that is to say that the, that teenagers' brains would light up more when they heard the voice of strangers than when they heard their mother's voices.
Starting point is 01:24:05 Yeah, makes perfect sense to me. So why do you think that makes perfect sense? I make sense to me because all they've known up to a certain point during their extreme dependence on their mother is their mother or their father. other other combination, right? That's the source of a nutrition, of survival, of everything, all the things you need as a developing human being. Once you're to a stage where you've got those basics, it's the outside world that
Starting point is 01:24:32 becomes interesting to you evolutionarily because you have to go there one day. And the desire to not necessarily rebel so much, but just reach toward that and not toward your parents. To me, that just makes all the sense of the world. I don't know how to quantify it or define it, but that just seems 100% normal to me. Like, of course they do. Why wouldn't they? And why wouldn't they do it then? Because they now are also in the situation where they're not only trying to reach out into the world, but they're also going to get resistance slash advice slash help slash wisdom from their parents in doing so, right? So they're straddling it. And some kids go nuts and really wreck the, you know, go nuts and the parents are terrible or whatever.
Starting point is 01:25:18 They're newfound freedom. Yeah. Yeah, but the concept should be that as they reach, we as parents are helping them reach. Right. Exactly. And so, so there's a social aspect of it. Like you said, eventually you're going to leave the nest, so to speak, to use the cliche. And you need to be able to learn about the world around you. But importantly, what they found here is that this, This lighting up of the brain is not because of novelty. In other words, it's not just because... So from infancy, human beings are kind of hardwired, especially infants, actually, and toddlers, young kids,
Starting point is 01:26:01 are hardwired to really be, to really tune into new experiences. So you see that in baby's brains all the time. Whenever they're exposed to something new, their brains will light up in a particular way. Because, and that makes sense with babies. They're trying to learn about the world, right? So they need to be, they need to be excited by and their attention grabbed by new things and experiences, right? Right.
Starting point is 01:26:26 But that's not what's going on here. What's going on here is just literally, there seems to be a flip so that at around the ages of 13 and 14, which is what this study found, it starts to flip to where your kids, Just teenagers just seem to be more interested in new people in particular, new voices, and less interested in their parents. And they think that it's absolutely, the hypothesis is exactly what you're saying, Scott, that it's just to to facilitate and encourage the seeking out of new social groups, new social connections. Right, right, which is what you need to survive. And it's always been like, you see, it's in primates. general, right? The social, that's what sets certain mammals like primates and some others apart is their very social nature. Right. Yeah. Totally can see that. That's what the study
Starting point is 01:27:28 found. So it's very cool. That's super interesting. I feel like if you're a parent, a lot of the stuff just seems obvious in a, this is the part that fascinates me, because it's obvious in an instinctual way. but not in a way that's easy to describe why. Like if you start getting into the nuts and bolts the way the study did and the way that science typically does, you don't, you know, parents don't think in those terms, but we get it. Like everything you just said made perfect sense to me. I'm like, oh, yeah, of course that's what they found. But I don't know how to quantify that very well, you know. And that's what's cool about this study is that it's not just, you know, what makes a scientist a scientist is they see a pattern like all teenagers.
Starting point is 01:28:12 seem to start wanting to or being more interested in other people than their parents they see a pattern and they don't just like take it for granted they start to ask why what's going on here right is there something that we can discover about this and so they looked into it and it's not just you know it just appears that it's not just the way our society is structured um and the way that we teach kids it's also somehow actually hardwired into the brain somewhere that this is happening yeah Which makes sense, right? We're talking about millions of years of that stuff versus, you know, us going, video games are bad for kids. Well, do we know that? We don't really know. We're looking at a micro moment in history. And we just don't know enough, right?
Starting point is 01:28:58 Actually, I guess we're starting to learn some of that. But I don't know. There's the cosmic long-term shit. And then there's the little weenie things we've got to get all worked up about. But it's the cosmic stuff that wins out in the end. That's what I say. Yep. Bobby, awesome. I love this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 01:29:14 And if you are like Brian and I, you like additional science content, there's this show you do. And I'd like you to tell people about it so that it's hammered into their heads, where to get it and how to get it. It's called all around science. Me and my co-host, Morrow, we talk about science every week, science stuff in the news. We actually just, the episode that came out yesterday, it's Valentine's Day today. So we did what podcasters like to do and themed our episode on a Hallmore, holiday. And so...
Starting point is 01:29:43 All about love. Well, what we did was, it's all science-y, right? And we could have gone the love route, but we decided, and there's plenty of science about love, but we decided to talk about hearts. And in particular, we invited both of our spouses onto the show who are both people in the medical field who are very knowledgeable when it comes to science and whatnot. So more as husband's a paramedic and my wife's a pharmacist. And so we talked about hearts, heart disease, heart medications, the kinds of things that you do and what's going on with those medications and how do they help the heart and all this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 01:30:22 Very cool. I wanted to share with the world the people that we love and how smart they are. Yeah. Take that, everyone. Take that. Take that. Well, that's great. As always, I love having you on.

Let's do a song. We got to go. What do you got? What are we doing? I've got something going out to Voslos, who actually is in our discord, said, figured with Valentine's Day coming up, it might be nice to send out one to all the wonderful folks who will be
Starting point is 01:34:04 celebrating. That is all. Also. It might be appropriate to remind everyone how tasty sausage is. Oh, geez. How ill-prepared is Scott is today's question? Yes. Sausage. We want the long one, I assume? Well, of course.
Starting point is 01:34:19 I mean, what else would you even do? The one that keeps getting longer. All right, here's, just for comparison. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here's the original. Mmm, sausage. All right, there's number one. Now here she is all drawn out.
Starting point is 01:34:35 Sausage. Yeah. It is such a weird phenomenon. I will stand by the fact that it sounds like it gets longer every time. It's never been longer than five seconds, yet I'm with you. It sounds like it every time. It always sounds like it's long. Even if you tell me it's five seconds.
Starting point is 01:34:52 No, that feels like it's eight, nine, ten seconds long. It's very weird. It's a long sausage. All right. So going out to Vazlos, he wanted to hear Rock Sugar and their cover of Shook Me All Night Long. You Shook Me All Night Long by ACDC. mixed with Madonna's Like a Prayer. It's called Shook Me Like a Prayer.
Starting point is 01:35:11 And that is exactly what Rock Sugar does. They create these heavy metal songs that are amalgamations of other heavy metal songs mixed with pop songs. It's great. They have two albums out. And this is from the first album, which is called Reimaginator. But seriously, both albums are fantastic. Here is Rock Sugar and their cover of a couple songs mashed into Shook Me Like a Prayer. I hear of it.
