The morning stream.

The morning stream. The sugar and cream in your coffee.
Oh,
The morning stream
Morning stream
Hello, everybody.
Welcome to the morning stream.
Today is May 2nd.
It's a Tuesday, and it's 2023.
And we're here, you know?
That's right.
Yeah, it's right.
We got this all in hand.
We know what we're doing.
We got it all worked out.
It's me, Scott, and that's Brian.
Hi, Brian.
Good morning.
Oh, hi, Scott.
How are you?
I'm all right.
My voice won't fix.
It's still weird.
Yeah, this is lasting a long time with you.
I feel like my voice is close to normal.
Yeah, you sound pretty good to me.
Sound pretty normal to me.
I'm used to this happening on these trips, but they usually take a day.
It's like nothing usually.
Yeah.
So I don't know what's going on.
Maybe it's permanent.
Maybe I...
Well, you're going to sound like this forever.
Yeah, now's your time to get in these low registers if you guys need something way down here.
That's right.
needs a little Barry White action.
Oh, too bad. There's no more karaoke.
Ah, damn.
Can't get enough for your love, babe.
Maybe it was my Fred Schneider that wrecked it.
I don't know.
Good be.
I thought about that.
I've given that some thought.
And I'll give it some more thought.
It's really like five sentences you sang in that song.
I know.
I didn't do much, right?
No, we didn't do it that loud.
It wasn't like I was screaming or anything.
So I have no idea.
I don't know.
Why did you sit on the floor, by the way?
Oh, so I got confused.
I didn't realize that that was being projected behind us also.
I thought the only place was there.
The only place to see the, I gotcha, okay.
Yeah, so I screwed that up.
And when I stood up, I looked back and went, oh, it's on the back wall.
Gosh, dang it.
No wonder she stood there and aimed the other way because I couldn't figure out why she was doing that.
I was so dumb.
I mean, you got to remember, I'm like about as, I'm as familiar with karaoke as I am with, I don't know, orthodontal surgery.
Like, I don't know what I'm doing in there.
It's all rocket, rocket surgery.
Yeah, it's all rocket surgery to me.
Anyway, we're glad to be here.
Thank you all for being here.
A big thank you to three individual human beings, namely Kevin, aka KT Data,
Jamie, who is visiting here from the UK, and Noel, Kevin's, is it nice to say
Maine Squeeze anymore?
Are we allowed to say that?
I don't know.
I mean, in high school, we would say that, right?
That was a thing.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Oh, yeah, main squeeze, partner.
Partner.
All right, I like partner.
Rose Kitty here in the chat.
Yeah, Rose Kitty.
They were all with us, and they took us out to a place last night called, I forgot the name, dang it.
Japanese hot pot place.
Oh, my God.
I saw the description on this.
Kevin, Kevin was telling me about it.
It is a mix of hot pot, all you can eat sushi, and barbecue, Japanese barbecue.
It's fan-tastic.
Ginza.
G-I-N-Z-A.
I would have, you know, hearing that description,
I might have considered driving 10 hours to, to.
Well, you would have spent the 10 hours driving back with a case of heartburn and maybe the hot farts.
I don't know.
Probably, yeah, well, probably would have put me to sleep, really.
It did me, too.
I kind of had a food coma after, but it was so freaking good.
Average that to be, wasn't too bad either.
It was like 50 bucks a person.
There was tons of food.
That's not bad at all.
Yeah, it wasn't bad.
And I'll go back there in a heartbeat.
eat. It was so freaking good. But I over did it. And I know I overdid it. At the time I knew I
overdid it. I was eating it going, yeah, I'm overdoing it right now. I'm doing this and I'm overdoing it.
And then I got home and I was like, I'm a little heartburning, but I'm fine. Go to sleep.
I woke up every, I don't know, 30 minutes going, oh, heartburn. I got a little, got one of those
chewable freaking heartburn things and go back to bed and I need another one. And it's just like grumpy.
I was like a commercial just waiting to get made for Tums last night.
Right. Yeah. You were waiting for.
for that cutaway image of your of your belly with the um's coating the inside of your stomach
and hopefully relieving the the red lava that's being shown in your stomach exactly that hot
red light down there in the center and uh i never really got much relief feel better this morning
but it was worth every it was worth every every second of the pain it was so good brian so
so freaking good and everybody that worked there own the place everything else like japanese people
who spoke terrible English.
That's how you know to trust a place like this.
Because you know it's real, man.
You know you're going to get the real deal.
It's not just some white guy's idea
of what a hot pot place should be.
No, no, that seems like the real deal.
And so with hot pot,
so it's obviously you've got the burner
with the broth being cooked on it,
constantly kept hot.
And do they just keep bringing you more meat and more,
because it's all you can eat hot pot?
Or is it fixed amount hot pot?
So it was all we could eat,
although they would basically
do it in shift so it was like uh yeah you know we're out of this these pick a few things we're not
going to bring everything to because we know you're not going to eat all of it exactly yeah but
they would they would have kept going as long as we needed them to but we were we were good and we
had a ton of sushi as well which is super filling and a bunch of different roles he uh k t data
picked out this thing called the executive role which i don't think i've had before that was fantastic
this weird mango thing that was weird i don't know if i'll eat that again
because it was a little too
it's a weird combo.
Yeah, mangoey.
I'm not a big mango guy.
Yeah, me neither.
But anyway, it was great.
And the best part is this.
So we're sitting in this big, long table.
Carter was with us.
So it was me.
Or sorry, Carter, me, Kim.
And on the other side of the table,
you had Jamie across from Carter.
You had Rose Kitty across from me, Noel.
And then next to him, or to her, Kevin.
And Kevin and Cameron are across with each other.
So there were three big pots in front of each of us.
and that you know we're each are putting stuff in pulling things out here's what's great about
having rose kitty across from you i didn't really have to do a damn thing because she's really
good at like timing when to put new stuff on the little grill and on the pot and all this so it's
always just me reaching up and grabbing new things out of it to eat and her just very you know
nonchalantly making sure there's plenty there every time anybody needs anything now did she get
anything out of the pot or was it just her loading the pot and you emptying the pot well i worried
about that a little bit but no she she seemed to get she seemed to get plenty but um i tried to you know
some cabbage and bok choy and some other green things i attempted to do that but it was mostly
i i overdosed on meat is what i did oh d meat yeah i highly recommend it though everybody if you
want to check it out it's in union square yeah union square i'll be out there i'll be out there shortly
save a place where let me make a reservation all right vital revivalist asked i think a minute ago
Has Brian ever been out to see Scott in Salt Lake City?
Now, if you don't count, obviously, you know, the Nurtaculars, of course, right?
But there were a couple times that I came out that weren't at Nurtacular.
There was one time I came out, I stayed with, oh, my gosh, why can't I remember their names?
Oh, Corinne and Jason.
Teren and Jason, thank you, cheese, Louise, brain fart there.
Stayed with them, and we were checking out.
I think it was to check out.
snowbird the first time to before the first time early 2013 to do like a tour of the place and kind of
get an idea of what things were like yeah it's absolutely right oh and you that was your that was
your lactose intolerant trip remember that again it's like the one thing that you remember from
that is me leaving the area is like okay i'm gonna go i gotta go fart over like at the other side
because of it had too much latte too much milk in my latte yeah i could i don't know why that
sticks out i mean i guess we're seeing a pattern here but things stick out in my memory um anyway you know
that was a fun little trip and then in 2011 yeah and that's when we first met kevin i think the
first time he was there filming oh he was there actually at the yeah right no kidding holy mackerel
i think he was still a teenager technically then i think he was like 19 he might have been
18 19 or something anyway yeah but have i been to denver no no never and you even have family
here that you could come visit 100% my aunt and all my cousins are all out there
I could easily make a excuse to go to Denver.
And I've been to Denver a bunch of times, but all prior to meeting you.
Yeah.
And so I don't know what that's about.
Clearly, you don't like either, I guess it's a combination,
they're not liking me enough or your family enough that lives out here to come make a...
Yeah, that's an interesting point.
I don't really have a good excuse, honestly.
I mean, part of it is...
I'll visit Denver before Scott.
I bet you will.
The one memory I always have going to Denver, if you fly to Denver, is there is this massive drop over the mountain.
Yes.
So you fly over and then you go, wha!
And the plane...
It's not so bad anymore.
They don't...
I haven't had a flight do that in like the last 10 years.
Oh, good.
All right.
Well, see, it's been that long for me, so...
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know which airline you flew it on, but...
No, you know where it's really bad.
Lung...
Is it Long Beach?
There's one where it is like that.
where basically you're flying and then oh no long beach the problem with long beach is the runway
ends at the ocean oh right so it's basically land screeched to a stop yeah it's kind of the same way
when you're taking off it's like you're taking off and it's like oh crap we're running out of
runway yeah and they slam their they really hit the brakes on that runway yeah i've landed there a few
times you're right yeah i don't like the ones where they got to make a sudden thing just because
of positioning or whatever but yeah hey it's the world we live in what's the world we live
anyway thanks kevin and jamie can i just say jamie as an ambassador of all things london and uh the u.k
what a nice dude he is he really is nicest guy ever he didn't wear those cool shorts last night
but that's fine it's totally fine um he's going to park those were those were snug those shorts he
wore in oh yeah yeah they keep it all in and he's going to uh park city today so i'm a little jealous
It's really nice up there right now.
He's going to do some more hiking and stuff.
And I just think the world of that dude.
So I wish him nothing but fun while he's here.
And then a safe trip home.
Back to the United Kingdom.
Also, he has the coolest job.
I won't get into what it is because it sounds kind of top secretie.
But he does some really weird cool shit for our living.
Really?
Yeah.
So if anyone ever gets a time to just hang out with Jamie and talk about what he does,
like most people are like, what do you do?
And you're like, well, I push button A to make B.
happened.
Bair, it's boring, right?
Not that guy.
He's got, he's like talking a,
I don't know who he's talking.
It's like Ethan,
Ethan Hunt levels of, of cool.
He's got a really cool job.
Scaling the sides of a building cool.
Yeah.
And he also makes me feel like a dumb American
because he's so articulate and very British
and he's very like articulate
and says everything perfectly.
And I'm sort of over there going,
well, that's real good.
Why don't you tell me more?
the shit you say really dear fancy boy
anyway he speaks
the kingling king's English
yes the king's the kingling I like the
kingling the kingling's English
we got a couple things here
to rip through that are from listeners we like
listener feedback you know here on the show
it's a thing we're into and we got
one from M. Bader Steve
that's what it says
just reading it the way it is
M master I don't know
I mean you know you have to ask
you have to ask you have to assume
yeah we're not here to assume anything but we'll we'll assume this anyway this is on the topic of old of odd vending machines we talked about the one that gave you bear meat uh this is a while ago so you have to shake our memories around to remember what we're right yep he says dear sinker and bobber uh you float and i sink that's interesting oh interesting well maybe that's actually going to be true though i thought we all float down here yeah he says the strangest vending machine i've ever seen was for live bait uh seen out some
of a bait shop in Annapolis.
So maybe not so strange.
Love the show, though.
M. Bater, Steve.
Yeah, live bait.
So how do you keep that fresh, I wonder?
Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, worms, what do they need?
Just a cool, dry, dark place, really?
What does a worm even need?
What does a worm need?
Right?
I mean, come on.
I imagine it's, you know,
they just basically keep it cool in there,
Keep some nice moist soil and little containers
And I don't know what else
What are the kinds of live bait?
Chad says it's common
I mean I guess worms can is you're right
Probably moist soil and your worm is good
Probably for like weeks
I don't know
Containers and stuff yeah
Yeah that seems fine
I mean we used to when I fished as a as a youngster
I didn't really fish now
But when I fished a lot when I was a kid
We would just go find worms
We did it the hard way
never bought worms.
You've got to find worms.
And we knew where to find them.
I'd find him in the neighbor's yard where the roses were.
There was always worms in there.
So we'd do that.
My Hungarian grandfather had a,
because he would go fishing almost every weekend,
every Saturday morning,
and I'd go with him and it'd be the most boring thing ever.
So it's like I'd always figure out some way to get out of it.
Yeah.
But he, on Friday nights, when he got dark,
he would go into the garage.
He'd get out this metal rod that was attached to a,
an electrical plug.
He'd jammed the rod into the ground,
plug it into the wall, and the worms would just
come out of the ground. Like it was electrifying
the soil, and the worms would be like,
oh, this sucks, I'm getting out.
And then we'd just go around and go, point, point, point, point, point.
See, that's the way. That's the way to do it.
That's the way to do it. And every once in a while, you know,
if I asked him, he would take the metal wand,
and he'd tap it on the, we had this metal
clothes hanger, like the clothes lines in the back, and he'd tap it on there and
like a little lightsaber looking for him. Oh, man. Your grandpa was cool. He was cool. He was
the greatest. Some Hungarian business right there is what that is. That's right. Exactly.
Andy wrote in. These are all texts by the way. So send just your text 8-014710462.
Andy says, hey Scott and Brian, Andy here. So America will call its football by the name Blatter
ball.
Bladder ball.
He says because it's shaped like a pig's bladder.
I didn't know that, is it?
I guess.
I mean, I don't know.
Is a pig's bladder football shaped?
Is more the question?
Well, he says here that, I mean, he drops this line, which is what the first
footballs were made of.
Now, I know they were called pig skins.
I didn't know how anything to do with their bladders.
I didn't know that either.
I guess we needed to go watch Leatherheads starring George Clooney at some point.
Ah, the classic George Clooney film Leatherhead.
Or is that a TV show?
I don't remember.
it was a movie oh okay well good for him i just remember it was like you know him wearing the the
leather helmet oh oh yeah right i don't think i've ever seen that no i've never seen it either
wonder if it's good i like him i feel like i haven't seen a lot of cluny lately so i could be i could be
convinced i did watch uh oceans 11 on the flight back from vegas only because i talked so much about
it during my film sack bonus episode and watched a few clips just to refresh my memory on it i was
like, oh, I just want to watch it again.
And freaking, you know, young Andy Garcia, young George Clooney, Brad Pitt, eating in every scene for some reason.
Don Cheadle, I mean, such a great, great cast.
It was free on Southwest.
So it was like, yeah, I'll just do this.
And then I can sleep.
Got that tiny Asian guy in the box.
That guy's cool.
The scene where he, like, slides back first into the box, like, into this little container.
Like, they basically open the lid.
He sits on the side and then he goes,
fold up like a freaking taco.
Yeah.
It's one of the great moments in heist cinema history.
It really is, yeah, exactly.
Ocean's 11's great.
That's a great movie.
And really Matt Damon effs everything up for everybody, right?
Because he leaves the van when he's not supposed to leave the van.
It causes the Asian guy's hand to get slammed in the van door, screws things up.
Yeah.
Is there any wonder he bought a zoo and shouldn't have, you know.
And then ate shit potatoes on Mars.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then fertilized potatoes with his own poo-poo.
No, no good.
That's right.
That's right.
Too bad.
Oceans 12 sucked so hard.
Oh, it was bad.
12 was bad.
13 was great.
13 was great.
11 and 13, fantastic.
What happened there with 12?
What happened?
Oh, I'll tell you exactly what happened with 12.
It was one moment that just basically said, nope, I'm out of this movie.
It completely ruined the movie for me.
What was it?
The fact that they, you know, the main characters all go to jail.
and they're stuck there
and Julia Robert
Tess is out of jail right
she's like oh no
she's the only one who can help us
and so
someone points out
that she looks a lot like
Julia Roberts and she uses that
to like con Bruce Willis
into like this whole fiasco
it's like oh so wait
test looks just like Julie Roberts
but Danny Ocean doesn't look
just like George Clooney
and Brad Pitt doesn't look like
yeah that's stupid it's like
it just takes me
it took me out of the movie so quickly it's like oh i'm done with this that's some fourth wall bull crap
there i don't like it broke the it broke the biggest rule of cinema is that your your characters
can't all of a sudden get a leg up because they happen to look like the actors that are playing
those characters yeah and i can't think of a single movie that that director made that i didn't
like except for that solderberg was great yeah name another name another film he made that's not
at least better than good and
they're all good. This is not good.
It's so weird. Burn after reading.
Wait, was that him?
Burn after reading? I don't know if that was him
actually. Was that Cohen Brothers? That was Cohen Brothers.
Yeah, that's not one of their strongest.
Which is also not one of their best.
No. No. But it's got Brad Pitt
and I don't think he eats anything in it, though.
That was the other problem.
Is that he didn't. Let's see.
Oh yeah, because he did, wait a minute.
He did, yeah, sex license videotape,
obviously. First thing I remember saying of his,
might have actually just been the first thing he did.
But he did that Kimmy movie that I watched and recommend old last year,
which was Zoe Crapp, no, not Zoe Cravitz, Zazzy Beats.
Oh, Zazzy Beats, yeah, yeah, yeah.
As a intro, agoraphob who is loving the fact that the pandemic is locking people in.
And so she has the job of listening into everybody's Alexa.
and saying whether or not that they got their thing right.
Yeah.
And then she overhears a murder and she has to, like, leave her the safety of her house to get out and do it.
Yeah.
I heard that was great.
You recommended it.
It was good.
I recommended it.
It was on HBO Max.
Go watch it.
It's on my list.
I had forgotten that that was a Soderberg deal.
Yeah, I really, there's very few things I didn't like.
I like Contagion back in the day.
I really liked.
Oh, good and lucky.
Yeah, that was great.
Michael Clayton was really good.
Traffic.
Oh, the limey is so good.
The Limey is a really good movie.
Yeah, great one.
Yeah.
So he's great.
Solaris.
I love Solaris.
I know it's kind of,
some people are off and on on that,
but I really like Solaris a lot.
Yeah, I don't know a movie he made that was,
that was garbage,
except for 12.
Nice job.
Yeah, except for Ocean's 12.
And that episode he directed of,
uh,
broke one rule,
Stephen,
you broke one rule and for that.
He did one episode of Grey's Anatomy that wasn't very good.
I'll say that.
That's not his fault.
Ray's Anatomy sucks.
I know.
As you say, I didn't, uh, I never watched a single episode.
You heard me, people.
I said it sucks.
So send your emails.
You know what to do.
You know what's next.
Here is a final note here.
Oh, it's a call.
Oh, let's hear it.
About things that you would just take a sudden road trip for.
I thought it was like appropriate, given our Vegas recentness and all that.
Cool.
So I'm going to play it.
Here it is.
Check it out.
Hey, this is one sleepy panda calling for TMS.
Having the opportunity to go to a.
a hockey game up in New Jersey
tonight for the playoffs
and to the Virginia.
So I am driving
14 hours between two days
to go to a hockey game.
So what's something you guys
would take two days off work and just drive
14 hours for?
All right.
Give me a good one.
That's a great question.
Yeah, I love it. I love it.
A Spice Girls concert.
I would totally, if like
Spice Girls were
you know, touring again
minus Victoria.
uh and they uh i mean would it be a problem if she was there or you just don't no i wouldn't
it wouldn't be a problem if she was there but i think she was the she was the holdout i think for them
touring and i'm like just do without it's totally fine uh and let's say they were playing in
Vegas and i got tickets i would absolutely drive alone in the car to Vegas to get to to see the
the spice girls oh and that is that that that's a long drive for you it's 10 hours for me yeah
Yeah, 10.
Yeah, 10, 11 maybe.
Maybe a little bit.
I don't know.
Now that we got all these stretches of 80 miles per hour, which didn't exist when you and I were growing up.
No, that's true.
There was a reason Sammy Hagar could not drive 55 because, you know, back in the day, it was slow.
It was bad.
So Uncle George and a guy named Don and I took a road trip out to Vegas for a trivia thing, like competition.
It was a geek bowl or whatever.
And we were driving my car, but we were taking turns, and Don was behind the wheel.
And we had just entered into Utah and saw the, like, it was all of a sudden 80 miles an hour.
Because we came out of the mountains, and it's like, oh, look at that, 80 miles an hour.
Don goes a little bit over, maybe too much over.
He goes, I think he's going 87 or 88 miles an hour.
Right.
Boo, woo, woo, we got pulled over.
Oh, this was outside.
I think this was outside of St. George, because I remember him having a big problem with St.
George because of it. And, um, and the guy says, you guys come in from Colorado and 80 miles an hour
isn't enough for you. Yeah. Yeah. That's great. I love it. That sounds like a movie scene. I love it.
So he had to drive back there and do the court thing for, uh, oh, really? Oh, really? Oh, that sucks.
Because he wanted to fight it. They have an airport now. You could fly there now. Yeah, exactly.
I used to have not one there. That's great. I love that story. Yeah, it's, uh, it's, it's, it's kind of liberating.
your kids a trip to Vegas meant
eight hours for us
because 55 was the best you could do
and that was just the speed limit
and cars in this let's just admit it
cars in the 70s and 80s
kind of rattled apart if you went faster than that
they weren't great so now
that you can go 80 like what
does Sammy Hagar just sit around sometimes and go
I wish I could change my song
he could totally update the lyrics
look at Elton John you know updating candle in the wind for
whoever just recently died he can just keep
updating that one song.
Somebody go down to Cabo.
Find him and Cabo and say, look, Sammy, do it.
Now's your time.
Let me address Daniel DeLuca in the chat.
It's strange and creepy for an old guy to drive 10 hours for Spice Girls.
Daniel, guess what?
They're old too.
It's not like I'm going to see, you know, BTS.
Well, not, BTS, you can't even use is a good example.
Japanese teenage girl group, AQ 24, or whatever.
they're called. ABQ 24. I'm not driving 10 hours to see them. Black Pink or someone like that.
Right. Exactly. They're the hot ones. Yeah. No, they, I know there's a feeling that the people in music and
Hollywood never, never age while you age, but those girls in spice girls in spice girls and I put girls in clothes.
They're not only spice ladies. They're spice ladies. They're spice ladies that are Brian and I's age.
Exactly. We're as old as they are. Like, we could marry them and know in a blink and I,
because of the same age as us. And I wouldn't be going there to marry them. I'd be going there to see their music because I like.
like their music unabashedly, unapologetically, love this.
Yeah, I don't know how that would make you a creepy old guy.
Now, if you, if you said to me, I'm going to go, I'm going to go watch.
I'm going to go to driving to Hollywood because I hear Kate and Ashley,
I married Kate and Ashley Olson are going to be at a book signing at the Barnes and
Hobel.
Aren't they, and even them are, they're in their 40s or something.
They're their 40s.
I know.
I can't think of a good example.
Yeah, you'd have to say, okay, I'm going, I'm going down to local house, go to
watch the cheerleaders work like that would be weird that would be that would be yes i'll take that yeah
don't be doing that okay she was born in 86 so that makes her 36 so she's not quite there but still
look who came to visit oh it's a kitty i hear you had a kitty throw up scott yeah so sorry to hear
you know how she heard because all the cats communicate they all know they do all telepathically
bastards all of them yeah i do miss having a cat that likes me because i would like decard if you liked me
He doesn't like me.
You know, it's like Tina and Anaria there.
She doesn't like Tina.
No, doesn't like Tina, but then Tina's got Salem.
Salem follows Tina around like she is mama cat.
Yeah, it's how it should be.
It's the way of it.
Exactly.
This is the proper human to cat ratio is exactly how it's supposed to be.
We don't want it the other way where Tina's following that cat around.
That'd be bad.
Don't do that.
Yeah.
Well, there you go.
I don't know what I would take four days off for.
probably um
COVID
it's not a matter
taking four days off it's a road trip
oh right right what would I drop
yeah what would I drop everything for
like is there a video game release
or uh or something like uh
oh gosh I can't think of a concert I'd do it for
I might do it for
okay here's here's one
if you have tickets to the
world premiere of the Furiosa movie in Hollywood.
I'd do that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If someone said that and I didn't fly, I would totally drive that.
That's about 10, 12 hours.
If I, okay, I would do, what I do that, though?
All right, let's say, okay, my brother, my brother, or sorry, my nephew, Chuck,
made that song with Dead Mouse on their new album.
Powder Blue, it's very good.
Check it out on their newest album.
the cascade combo thing it's really good anyway uh if he said hey we're doing a thing 14 hours
away and it's like it's gonna take you that plus four days but we're gonna be live and you get to
get to have good seats or whatever i do that i do that okay there you go because you know whenever
it's family when you're here it's your family right you you have family but it's good example yes
oh man i'm so burpy from food last night gosh dang it kevin it was up some hot pot
Yep, you want some hot pot?
I got second day hot pot for you right here.
Then finally...
Used hot pot air.
Finally, I got a butt dial that would sound like this.
Check out this weird noise.
Okay, now at first, it sounds like some robot-y voice.
It almost sounds like, we want Carl or something like that.
I think Claire might have called you.
Yeah, you think my voice is after you should hear that girl.
That sounds like an airplane.
Like, could that be Bobby calling from the plane or something?
Well, I heard, so I got Twitter or somewhere, somebody reached down and said,
hey, if you get a couple of butt dial calls that sound like someone's mowing along, that was me.
And that's totally what it is.
He's out doing weeding or something.
Yeah, maybe a weed whacker, because it doesn't sound, it sounds like if it's a,
I guess it could be an electric mower.
It doesn't have the, like the, you know,
a full-throatedness of a, of a lawnmower.
It's a little bit higher in the tweeter.
Exactly.
This is, yeah.
And he said, well, the call I got was like four and a half minutes long, so that's
only seven seconds of a very long call of nothing but that sound.
But at first, it was very alien, like,
We want Carl.
It does sound like a weird robot alien.
Yeah.
And I'm like, I don't have Carl.
What are you talking about?
I am no keeper of Carl.
Charles. All right. That's all we got for this morning. Until we do the news, let's do the news, and the news is right here.
It's the news, and it's brought to you by. A brand new episode of soundography hit the site today. Why? Because I pushed it, and it landed on the site. That new episode is all about Stevie Wonder. Hammon and I listen to the entire catalog of Stevie Wonder music, and there is a lot.
all the way from his early beginnings as little Stevie Wonder to that damn song I just called to say, I love you.
That one.
But there's a lot of great stuff in between.
Find out what we thought by listening to Soundography.
It's soundography.
com.
I'll bet you liked it.
He's great.
I liked a lot of it.
Yeah.
There was a jump the shark moment, but I think he jumped back over the shark.
Oh, okay.
I'll have to listen to find out what that was.
Yes.
Yes.
Have they ever, has Stevie Wonder and Stevie Nicks ever done a duet?
Does that ever happen like the two stevys?
No, you think they would, right?
Stevie and Stevie, together again.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They call it stevia and make a whole record.
Ebony and lace.
Ebony and lace, that's perfect.
There you go.
Instead of leather and lace and ebony and ivory,
we'll just take two of their duets and merge them together.
Perfect.
Love it.
Greg.
Everyone in the chat thinks that sounded like a massager, if you know what I'm saying.
Yeah, that's, well, that was my, uh, Claire point is that Claire must have called you.
Oh, I thought you just met her,
voice sounded like that. Now I get it.
No, no, no. Now I get it.
All right, now I'm going to listen to it with that knowledge. Hold on. Here we go.
Oh, I'm really sad that I know this now.
I don't want to think about it.
Oh, yeah, yeah. There you go.
See, that would be creepy old man if I wanted to know more, but I don't. I really don't.
The picture, it didn't happen.
Yeah. All right. Let's get to this first new story. A lamb, you know, like lamb.
Yeah, as in the silence of the
Of the, yeah, exactly, where you eat some lamb, you know
Yeah, or chops.
Oh, yeah, chops.
Or what else?
Lamb, shank.
Uh-huh.
That's all I got.
I don't have anything else.
Okay.
That's a lot of lamb right there.
That is a lot of lamb.
Let's see.
A lamb, a live one,
was found in a car next to 10,000 pounds, UK,
Sterling.
Okay.
of heroin and cocaine in a bag of chips.
All that in a bag of chips.
All that in a bag of chips.
Crisps.
Should be crisps.
Or was it actually chips?
Well, that's a really great part.
Because it could have been fries, right?
Were they sliced potatoes?
Yeah, exactly.
Let's find out.
This is the Edinburgh News.
So it might be that those were French fries.
We'll find out as we read.
It might be, yeah.
A lamb has been found in a back of a car alongside roughly 10 grand worth of class A
drugs. This is on a
Saturday evening. A police
dog named Billy sniffed
out the drugs and the lamb
who has seen pictured next to a bag of chips, so
I think there's a photo here. There is a
photo, that's great. Yeah, let's pull this up
so check. Oh my God, it's fantastic.
Because he's in the middle of going
he! Oh, yeah.
I look at him, yeah. She's going
bha!
Oh my God, that's fantastic.
I didn't bring the cocaine. It's not mine.
it says here
police colleague shared the incident via social
media
according to police
in Scotland
two men age 52 and 53
could be Tom Merritt and one of us
and one woman
age 38 aren't they always
were arrested and charged with
drug offenses and a search of the car
was carried out with the assistance from a dog unit
I wonder if the dog unit is
trained well enough not to freak out
because there's a lamb in there
you know maybe
yeah because my dog would lose
their shit over this lamb oh for sure yeah yeah that would not go well no the lamb would be uh
would be chased maybe they're looking for mary mary had a little lamb a little coke a little heroin
it's coke is white of snow yeah yeah mary had a little lamb it's coke is white as snow
oh see there we go and everywhere the the the mary went she'd have a snort of blow there it's
see perfect it writes itself how do we get the chips in there though uh
Um, uh, shoot.
So it's hard to get the chips in.
And after eating some potato chips, she'd do a snort of blow.
There you go.
Nailed it.
All right.
Look, come to us when you need your snort of blow.
I'm sure, I'm sure I'm using those drug references correctly, kids.
Yeah.
Can I have a snort of blow?
I guess they'd say, pardon me.
Could I have a snort of blow?
Would they say hit?
What do you say in drug culture?
Oh yeah, probably a hit of blow or can I have a snout full of blow?
A snoot of blow.
Oh, my Lord.
That's like the sport of blow.
40s, right?
Yeah, that's really.
Can I have a snoot full of blow now?
Give me a snootie or cocaine, see?
Back when it was legal.
Anyway, the lamb was, is fine.
And we don't know why he was in there, but he's okay.
Well done, Scotland.
There we go, yeah, a bump of blow.
Oh, a bump.
Yeah.
A bump.
It has to be something of blow to rhyme with snow, you see.
Yeah.
We mentioned the cocaine.
Yeah.
I don't have any, I don't know this drug stuff very well.
I hear, okay, so I heard one in Vegas that was new to me.
You've done more than me.
well that's true i don't actually know i don't know if you have well okay i assume i've never smoked pot in my life
but i had these gummies yes and i assume it's a similar sensation right i don't know i've never smoked
pot so i have no idea uh you know i've never had a gummy but i have smoked once yeah and then i did
some other things that i've mentioned a previous shows that i'm not going to mention again yeah Brian he's got
the stories. Yes. Yes, let's just say it was something you get on a pizza with everything.
Yeah, got a little bit of the old Miami Vice history there going on. And then a,
the shortened letter, one letter, abbreviation for the entertainment television network.
Yeah. Anyway, hey, what's the next story, Scott? Let's move on to this one. This is a, well,
this is a place that might have all those things you mentioned. Oh, I bet it is, yes. A celebrity cruise ship
kept corpses or a corpse in a drink cooler, according to a lawsuit.
And this happened last summer, which made me nervous, but mine was last fall, so we're okay.
Last summer after an elderly passenger died of a heart condition during a celebrity cruise vacation to the Caribbean or the Caribbean, depending on your proclivities therein.
It depends on if I'm on the ride or not, because I never say Pirates of the Caribbean.
You don't go to Disney underwrite Pirates of the Caribbean. It's always Pirates of the Caribbean.
no if someone ever says that they're getting punched in the face yeah and then i'm going to ride the mature horn
yeah the mature horn ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha i love that i love that because
canadians do this they say mario instead of mario oh yeah sure even though mario himself says
mario all the time they say mario it's me mario yeah he never once did he go oh it's me
Mario, are you going to finish that putteen, eh?
Poutine loving Mario.
I love that.
That's right.
Anyway, so this person dies,
and the cruise line allegedly advised his wife of two options.
Allow her husband's remains to be removed from the ship in nearby Puerto Rico,
where she would have to stay alone for days pending a possible autopsy,
or leave his body within the ship's morgue until the vessel arrived back in the United States.
And hoping it returned that way.
You would go that.
one right you would totally go that route yes i would like it's like no put kim on ice we're good
right yeah we'll get home put her on ice folks yeah put her on ice we'll get home we'll we'll roll her out
of the thing it's better do that right that's what i would do so in hopes of returning to her family
soon as possible the woman age 78 chose the latter like we all would trusting that the ship would
safely transport her husband of 55 years oh geez oh no they were married for 55 years he wasn't 55
years old. Oh, yeah, no. Husband of 55 years ago. Yeah, that's a, that sentence could go either way.
Anyway, to their home state of Florida to be prepared for funeral services. Six grueling days at sea
passed as the celebrity equinox changed back to its port, or chugged back to its port of Fort Lauderdale,
where the ship arrived on August 21st, 2022, which is about the week I left for mine, so I'm safe.
But you also didn't go on a celebrity cruise. Nor did I go to the Caribbean. I didn't go there.
Right. Yeah. This is, although if you would have asked me with this headland, I probably would have said, oh, it's probably a carnival.
Probably Carnival cruise line.
I always feel that way when there's something weird on a cruise ship. It's always Carnival.
Let's see. So they got there. They went to retrieve the body, but it was nowhere to be found in the morgue instead, according to the lawsuit, the corpse was located in a pallet on the floor of the beverage cooler unit thing they have in these ships left to turn green and deteriorate in the advanced state of decay after onboard, or sorry, after the onboard morgue went out of order.
Oh, see, that's what I was wondering, because ships have more.
People die on cruise ships, and they actually have to have a, you know, one of those
little slighty drawer, I assume one of those slighty drawer refrigeration, put the bodies
in here kind of situations.
Yeah.
But that's just deteriorated to advanced state of decay.
Is the drink cooler on?
Yeah.
Did they turn, do they actually cool the cooler?
Yeah, I'm all worried about the drinks now a little bit, you know?
Oh, yeah, for sure.
If the drinks can't be cold, what are we even doing on?
the stupid crew. He's like, well, they can put everything on ice. That's fine. She says she's mad because
they stripped him of his dignity in the sacred time after his passing, according to the lawsuit,
the ideas and mental fatigues that will surely never leave the memory of the plaintiffs.
I think, you know what? I think this is a good suit. Go ahead and sew him. I'm so sad. I can barely
eat this midnight crab buffet. I'm so melancholy.
Oh, my lord, these poor people.
All right, let's go to this one.
Okay.
Oh, this is a weird one.
Oh, God.
I hesitated on this, but I went for it anyway.
A man woke up to find his dog had chewed his toe to the bone.
Chichichich, chewed.
How do you not like...
To the bone.
I would have woken up sooner.
That's why this headline alone was enough to make me scratch my head and go, what are you on, dude?
Yeah, no kidding.
What was the exact?
I think that's it.
a lot of drink or a lot of smoke.
Turns out it's something entirely different.
I'll tell you how it worked.
The retired builder has told how we woke up in horror to find his pet puppy had chewed his
big toe to the bone.
This is according to David Lindsay, age 64.
He was startled by his wife's scream as he lay asleep on the sofa and they're home
to find his right big toe is covered in blood.
The bone and his toe had been fractured by his seven-month-old bulldog puppy Harley.
Harley's cute, though.
It's a cute name.
It's a cute name.
and you know that bulldog like you know the bulldog went you know chewing on with the the front of his mouth and then he went around the side of his mouth the big molars like to really go in on that on that knuckle and he was slobbering all over it nasty oh he says they have no problem they don't plan on getting rid of the puppy because they love him but anyway they said uh they they actually say that he inadvertently saved his life he suffers some diabetes and was asleep on the couch my wife walk
and shout to Dave, the puppy's chewing on your toe.
Anyway, the reason that's a thing is if you are an advanced level, like, hardcore diabetic,
your feet go numb.
Yeah, he had basically lost the feeling his feet due to two blocked arteries in his legs.
Yeah.
From diabetes.
Holy mackerel.
Probably a big for.
Well, good.
Good for Harley.
Yeah, good for Harley.
Go chew that toe.
I wonder if the toe chewing was just that, like a.
dogs are weird about when they know something's wrong dogs can i think didn't we do an article once about that they found that dogs can actually smell cancer or smell right they can be trained to to pick it out i know cancer is very different from diabetes but um i don't know this one feels like coincidence as opposed to uh the dog saying oh his arteries are blocked i'm going to chew on his toe so that he has to go to the hospital so that they find it they can also tell when i at least my own limited experience is that
when I feel really awful for some reason when I had COVID or if I'm sick or something's wrong,
my dogs know.
And they'll curl up on me and they'll be way sweet and they'll treat me differently when I'm
sick or down or something than they do normally.
For sure.
So it wouldn't surprise me.
And also given the fact that that nose is like the olfactory giant freaking organ of hell that
it is.
I can smell anything from a mile away.
Yeah.
Like why we should.
I don't think you can smell blocked arteries though.
Yeah, that's a good point.
How you can smell that?
Yeah.
yeah what does it like you said i think this was a coincidence but but i do think that they're like
you said when dogs know when you're not feeling well and they hang out with you and be like oh
let me make you feel better yeah but this is like a oh no blocked arteries i'm going to eat your
toe so you have to go to the hospital yeah to me yeah also uh man as someone with borderline
pre-diabetes uh in my family and i have i'm i'm at that point right now with my blood test
So that's why I'm off the Shug.
Yep.
I should be fine because usually if you just keep that in check, you can be 90.
Right.
Exactly.
You just stay on the.
Yeah, you're always just kind of borderline or whatever.
But I just cannot imagine anything worse than having to get your feet cut off.
It just sounds awful.
No, no.
Sounds horrible.
Yeah.
Sounds really awful to me.
Anyway, hats off to diabetics, everybody.
Hope you're all doing okay.
One final story here.
a 70-year-old man has fended off a cougar attack with a rock right here in Utah.
Utah Connection.
Yep, we're proud of this one, sort of.
A 70-year-old man, lots of old people in today's thing.
Fended off a cougar attack with a rock.
Okay.
This is according to Utah Park Authorities,
the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources said it contacted, or was contacted by the Utah County Sheriff's Office Thursday night about the elderly man from
Spanish fork
south of me.
Injured in a cougar attack
in Diamond Fork Canyon.
Beautiful Canyon.
Recommended it if you're that way.
The unidentified
man told authorities he was hiking
through some trees when a cougar jumped up
and knocked him to the ground.
Whoops, I skipped past it.
There we go.
The man then grabbed a rock through it
at the lion before the animal left the area.
The man was able to get back in his vehicle
and drive away.
Ended up at a local hospital
and received treatments for lacerations.
Wow.
So he really got, I mean, he did
get enough of an attack that that that that uh that uh cooger was coming back for more yeah i mean
you getting pushed to the ground with those big old paws and stuff that scared the living
crap out of me oh yeah no kidding good for him having the wherewithal to huck a rock at it uh let's see
the conservation officers went to the scene of the accident retrieved the man's cell phone uh the
they let's see they unsuccessfully tried to find the cougar although they put the instead
of they so they didn't fire check their thing although they spotted some of the animals
and probably some of its droppings.
Probably.
Some little trail of blood.
Yeah, scat as well.
Yeah, he's good.
He's all K-E now and everything's fine.
But this is not the first time here recently.
We've had a bunch of cougar attacks in the last year or so,
and they're up for some reason.
I think it's probably, they're coming down lower for food or something
because there was so much snow this year, and I don't know.
It could be wrong on why, but.
And there's, you know, across the country, animals like that are getting
a little bit more brave or while food is scarce, they'll venture further and further into town.
We've had more appearances, more visits from animals like that in the past couple of years
than we ever had before that.
Yeah, which is weird, but it makes sense, right?
They were here first, to be honest.
They were here first, really.
We encroached on their space, yes.
So we shouldn't just kill them.
We will, but we shouldn't.
Oh, gosh, no.
Yeah, no.
Yeah, we really shouldn't.
All right, there is your news for today.
take, or after this break we're about to take, we're going to talk to Bill. He'll be here
after a whirlwind tour of Las Vegas. Yeah. Bobby as well. And that's all coming up. But
before all that, Brian's song from Brian. Brian's song. Oh, we love that one from that movie
from the 70s. Anyway, uh, Gail Sayers. That's all you remember. Anyway, hey, let's listen to
a song from a rock band. These guys are actually going to be opening up for.

Sons from their brand new album.

The Giotene is high and clean.

This video was developed to help you keep this in mind as you serve mass so that you serve well.
Your marble's going to run off the track.
Do not confuse luck with skills.
Yeah, all right, we're back, everybody.

call bill yeah it feels like the right thing to do yeah we can i can show bill what i made i made a
I made a statue.
I made an award, Bill.
Yeah.
Yeah, you made, you 3D printed something.
I 3D printed.
You, you printed you.
And I've got sketches of a new thing on 3D printing, which, oh.
Oh, what?
You can't see a can.
No, it's all washed out.
Oh, shit.
I can't wait to find out.
I'll never see it.
All right, well, let's do his intro.
There's still something wrong, isn't there, Bill?
Hey, a guy I didn't know was so good a karaoke has arrived.
Hello, Bill.
How are you?
No kidding.
Hello, good morning.
Good morning. It was so great
hanging out with you and seeing you last week.
Oh, my goodness, right?
I was so happy to have you there. That was amazing.
I had the time of my life in Vegas.
It hasn't even been a week yet.
I've washed my clothes three times and I still have that Johnson stink.
Yeah, the Johnson stink.
You don't want that.
You really don't want that.
You know what else I noticed is when we did, we haven't talked about the escape room at all.
Yeah, I was hoping we could discuss that today.
Yeah, Bill was in there with that.
I got to say, if I was ever in an actual scenario where I was trapped in a submarine or whatever
and we had to figure out the puzzle to get out of there, I think Bill would be a good guy to have
for two reasons.
One, it's just Bill and I like having friends around, but two, he was so chill and like good
at all that crap.
You were like perfect partner in there.
That was awesome.
Pretty good under pressure, even when it's bladder pressure.
Oh, right.
Because they don't have a battle.
Well, supposedly they're been.
bathroom was out i think that bathroom was working they were lying to us but it's like it's the it's a
mcdonald's ice cream machine i'm telling you they just don't they don't want to clean it so they say it's
broken yeah yeah that was funny because you had to pee something fierce oh yeah yeah and i really
thought it was going to come to like you know bill's going to go in a bottle or some weird thing in the
car and hold out their hands yeah he was going to have to go off in the corner away from us and
that would be the thing you'd remember from the escape room yeah or they gave us all those tanks
could have just peed one of us oh yeah dude exactly
Except you have to turn those upside down and put them on the puzzle to get out of there.
There were a couple toolboxes that he could have availed himself of, yes.
That was really fun, though.
I couldn't think about it.
I was like, who would I, who most from TMS would I like to be in an escape room with?
Brian's the obvious answer, because he's really good at those, plus we're co-host here, but it's Bobby and Bill.
Like, yeah, I know, right?
These two biggest nerds about this sort of stuff, like, who would you rather be in there with?
I don't even remember who else was there.
Kim was there.
Tina, of course.
I mean, it was a star-studded team.
It really was.
You really did get the best brains of TMS all in one place.
And the very nice lady at the end said that we were better than average.
We did good.
We did it like 40-some-odd minutes.
Yeah, we finished with like 10, 12 minutes left on the clock.
Yeah, it was really fun.
I'd recommend that place.
It was called, except for their bathroom.
Escapology?
Escapology, yeah.
And it's in the exact same retail center as the place.
player one place we went to later that week which bill wasn't there for that but the player one
arcade was literally like three stores down from the escape room which is crazy anyway bill
it's great to have you back i'm glad you had a good time uh what have you been up to what are we talking
about today uh well i i mostly wanted to just talk about meow wolf that was incredible yeah um also
i wanted to point out i was curious the first time i went to las vegas um was for the new media
Expo in 2014. It was nine years ago, January 2014. And I have, I am not like a Vegas guy specifically, but I have been back so many times since then.
Yeah. I went to Autodesus University three times. I went, I've been to battle bots and all sorts of stuff. When do they, when is that battlebot stuff? Is it every year? They do it all. Yeah. Last year it was filmed in the in the end of October. I'm not sure when they're going to film it again. This is.
here, but they do have a permanent
battle bots
a thing you can go to
in Vegas now, so you can go see
bots smash each other.
I saw a tent
put up across from like
Luxor. Is that the one or is it?
I'm not sure. The one that we went to was
the Caesar's Entertainment had a
thing kind of near the
Flamingo. Sure. That's where we ended up
seeing it. That's cool. I
always love when that comes around and you talk about
battle bots. Always fun on the show.
So I had a ton of fun, and next year I definitely want to go to TMS Vegas,
but I'm going to see if I can get Brittany and April and potentially some more
Durans to go.
Oh, that'd be great.
Oh, my God, it'd be great to see Viking Las again.
Holy Matt.
I've seen her in a long time.
She was like 2011's like OG TMS super fan.
Right.
Yeah.
So I'm working on that.
I got a year.
Work on that.
All right.
Well, we'll plan on it.
That's awesome.
So Miel Wolf, let's get to that.
This is your first time in there, I guess, right?
Yeah, I've been hearing about the whole Miao Wolf thing for years.
There's one in New Mexico.
My aunt's been trying to get me to go to, and I just haven't been to New Mexico.
But a bunch of people at T.Mas Vegas were like, hey, we're going to go to this Miao Wolf Area 15 thing.
Let's go check it out.
So the first thing I saw aside was a giant robot statue that's laying on its back.
He's like 50 feet tall.
And I was able to 3D scan that with my phone.
Yeah, I got like a 3D model of it.
Polycam, right?
Yeah, I used polycam for that one.
I wish I would have done that with Vegas Vicky because I wanted a 3D print of Vegas Vicki.
Oh, yeah.
And she's inside the Circa.
And it would have been so perfect because I was even telling Scott before we went out there is like,
oh, I want a 3D print of Vegas Vicki and have our little versions of us sitting on there.
I could use polycam.
I don't know why I didn't.
Oh, that would have been amazing.
I'm going back in May, so maybe I'll remember to do that.
Yeah.
because I have it. I'm still, I'm pretty good about it. I'm still trying to remember. If I'm going to take a photo of something, I should think, oh, can I 3D scan this? You know? And if the answer is yes, then I'm going to 3D scan it instead. Yeah. That's great, dude. So did you, so that robot, by the way, you don't know this yet. Well, you kind of know, but I had you send me your scan of it. I have a very cool thing I'm making. Bill does a lot for us. He makes all kinds of shit. I have a, I've got one of the coolest like mass effect guns ever made because of
bill like he's given more than i've ever given back so i'm going to make him something rad and
that robot's in it and that's all i'm going to say i'll show we'll show it to everybody next week when
it's done but you're going to love it i hope so cool yeah anyway um so meow wolf is this big
company almost like a collective of artists that do these weird art installations they're kind
of permanent big art installations and the one in Vegas um the the the omega mart is really kind of
the cool thing to go see
you gotta pay a ticket
to go in to go see the exhibit
and it starts with this
shopping mart
it's like a grocery store it looks exactly
like a grocery store everything's perfect
it's like
got this aesthetic for maybe the 50s or 60s
and all the products
are really weird
some of them are real
some of them you can actually buy
but most of them are just really weird and silly
For example, there was a bunch of two-liter bottles of soda that were labeled
Root beer flavored vape juice flavored root beer.
Whoa.
And that's like, that kind of joke is just right up my alley.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All this stuff had to be custom made.
It's just wild.
Custom made and then mass produced, right?
So you have rows of boxes of, I can't believe this doesn't contain spiders or whatever the breakfast cereal is.
Yeah.
So that's the Omega Marker.
And that's, you can spend hours just wandering around reading all the things there, checking out all the weird stuff.
But then there's this whole other exhibit behind it.
And the way to get there is through one of several secret passageways.
Again, right up my alley.
There's like a cooler in the grocery store for ice.
You open this door to get some ice.
You open it.
There's a secret passageway to go through there.
And you end up in an area that's like a video game level.
Well, it's like the weird stuff to explore and find.
there's this very sort of like
tongue-in-cheek corporate
maybe aperture science kind of vibe
to everything that I enjoy
each room has a weird thing to try out and check
and enjoy lots of interactive stuff
I was really just blown away
I took so many photos
on my phone I have like three selfies from the event
and 500 photos from Meow Wolf
you know I ended up with some photos
photos of you too. I don't know how I did. I don't know if I, where my phone was that I ended up
with a bunch of pictures of Bill while I was stepped away from the table. Very strange.
Yeah, you don't know how those happen. It's just unexplainable phenomena. Yeah. Very cool.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's really awesome. I'm looking at some video and reminding myself.
It's another good reason for you guys to come to Denver because we've got a meow wolf here,
completely different. And then one in Santa Fe, the original, the OG that George R. Martin
funded turned a bowling alley into this incredible art installation and uh huge robots at the one
in uh santa fe too oh man big tall yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah i think that giant robot that's like
embedded into the ground in vegas is based on the standing one in santa fe think so too like it's
it's the laying down decomposing version of the one yeah yeah yeah pretty awesome that's amazing
um so what i really what i thought was so incredible though is
Like, there's a lot of cool exhibits and everything,
but tucked in every corner is just little art exhibits,
little neat things that some artist made,
and they're like, fine, we'll stick it in the exhibit.
And because people are going to this thing,
because it's a huge draw in Vegas,
and there's a lot of other stuff to do in the building
besides just this weird art,
a lot of people who normally wouldn't seek out weird art
get exposed to it,
which I think is awesome.
There's a lot of art out there that people aren't looking for it
because they don't know what exists.
When you go to a thing like this,
you get like this mega dose of it.
And you might see something that tickles your brain in a way that goes,
I want to find more like that.
I didn't know people were making art list like this.
I want to find more stuff like this.
So I highly recommend people go check out stuff like this.
If you're ever in an area that's got some sort of big, weird art exhibit or even an art show,
go check it out because you don't know the things that are going to connect with you.
And you're never going to find it if you keep looking at it normal.
art that's true are they always permanent installations brian or are they have a touring version or
no no they're all all three permanent installations and then two in texas oh which i thought for sure
oh where's the next place they're going to put it uh Portland Seattle yeah you know that's going to be
the most logical place for uh for a meow wolf but no two in texas which uh neither of them
or austin either which is the other weird because like all right well they're putting it in texas oh
must be Austin because Austin's weird.
Yeah, this is weird and it fits perfectly.
Yeah, Austin is weird.
But, yeah.
Yeah, of all the things you can see.
Orlando, I could see one in, you know?
Like Orlando would probably be a good place.
Yeah, but, I mean, these are so popular.
I imagine these are kind of just keep expanding.
They'll keep doing it.
I think so, too.
Yeah.
And I think they, I think Salt Lake should get one.
We've got a perfect art scene here that would just, this would fit right in and
become a regular thing.
If they can do it in Denver, damn it, we can do it here, all right?
Sure, sure.
Did you, did you do the game thing?
like the almost escape room game type deal while you were there?
I did not.
Yeah, there's a whole mystery and puzzle and stuff you can really explore.
I was kind of, I knew as soon as I stepped in the door, I was like,
okay, I need to come back with Britt and April, this is so our jam.
So I was really on a fact-finding mission.
It was like being in a video game, you know how you explore a video game,
you level and you try and make sure you look for everything so that you don't miss any
grenades or whatever right right it was like that i was i was trying to make sure i saw everything
uh and it felt like you know how you go in a video game and there's a fork and you go i'm pretty
sure i'm supposed to go to the right so i'm gonna go left yeah i want to see what they've hidden
over here in the left exactly that's exactly what it felt like exploring that place
i think um my opinion on that and i this is just my opinion but uh with each of the meowulfs
go in the first time without doing the boop card explore
get, you know, figure out all the stuff you're supposed to see because the benefit of the
boop card is that it walks you, it takes you through almost every room because you've got
something to see and do. So it's like, oh, great, I'm going to explore. I'm going to get all
this, this cool stuff and see it. And then the next time you go, you get the card. And then it's
like, oh my God, I never even saw this area or never looked closely at this or whatever. And,
and allow a lot more time to do the game. Sure. Yeah, I'll definitely be back. Yeah, the guys
who did the folks who did the game
this time around in Vegas completed it
and the game master
the writer of the games
the designer of the game at Meow Wolf
came out and gave them extra
like DLC gave them extra content
to do it to complete. Oh wow
wild that's awesome that's awesome
yeah very cool stuff
definitely worth checking out if you're in Vegas for sure
it's not even hard to find
it's also that whole place is cool
the entire area 15 is cool
there's this great burlesque whiskey
tasting the carnival thing there and this uh there's a a VR bird thing you can lay down and
flap your arm like a bird in VR I didn't get to try that but it looks fun yeah and I think uh next
year scott and are going to do the um the the platform that flies up in the air that you eat dinner
on where like a a server gives you food and a harness oh my lord I think that's going to be uh next
year for for scott and me oh I heard about that the harness food thing yeah yeah I can't I'm
going to have to work my brain up for that
well you're in a harness too you're harnessed in everyone's harnessed right you're all
harness but the the server is like like i don't think they've got a thing they're standing on
i think they're they're zipping around like uh tinkerbell giving you uh delivering food refilling your
drinks or whatever yeah that's fantastic well uh yeah definitely and uh worth checking out
if you live near one of these and or if you're out of town for any other reason and there's
one in that town go see it or just keep any eye out for any weird art if you see
thing you're like that looks kind of neat but it's kind of weird give it a shot yeah give it a shot
why not yeah uh bill is always fun to talk to you do you have a bonus link for us this week what's
going on i do my friend david petuto uh on the youtube channel make something this is in the
youtube chat there yeah um did it work he i don't think i need i may have to give you uh mod
status hit type any type anything in there and i'll do that for you real quick there you can also
if if you can put it in our discord chat and i'll
copy. I'm learning how to use
Discord. I use Discord a lot of while we're
in Vegas. It's a crash
course in Discord at
2 of Nugas for sure. All right. You're now
a mod so you can paste, I think. Oh, awesome.
So my buddy
David over at Make Something, YouTube channel
makes something. He took an old magnet doodle.
I had one of these as a kid.
Oh, yeah, dude.
A little magnet thing for drawn stuff, and he
upcycled it with like hardwood and stuff. He made a
really nice magnetoodle.
Oh, no way. I have
Vans uses one of these right now
when he comes over the house
he loves drawn on these
you can still get them
but this is crazy
are you kidding me
what?
Look at this thing
yeah
I love that
oh man
look it's got doors Brian
you can open the doors
like it's a wall
like a piece of art
you put on the wall
all right
that guy's awesome
love him
yeah and look he's one of us
he's like a combo of me and you
he's got kind of my white beard
in your bald head.
My bald head and an earring that neither of us have.
And earrings that neither of us have.
Yeah, and Bill, Bill's skill.
And Bill's skill.
Bill's skill.
He's, he's, he's Voltron TMS.
That's right.
He's finally come together into the perfect form.
This is great.
As always, check out PunishedProps.com, of course, and Punished Props on YouTube.
Bill, always a pleasure to have you here, man.
Good to see you the last week and can't wait to talk to you again.
You bet, friend.
See you next week.
Bye now.
Bye.
Bye now.
I don't know why I said it that way.
By now.
By now.
I'm telling someone to buy now.
Operators are standing by.
Yeah.
That is kind of what that was.
All right.
Bobby incoming.
He is no stranger to Tuesdays.
No.
Comes in here a lot.
He and Tuesdays go way back.
Yeah.
Way back to when he first did the Tuesday, I guess.
Right, exactly.
And his segment sounds like this.
Science.
Bob is hungry.
and the soup looks good
The soup does look good
and Bobby is here
once again joining us
for a science segment
Bobby hi how are you
I'm doing great
how are you
my skin has rehydrated
oh yeah I was gonna ask
you come from the land
of everything's wet all the time
right yeah
perma moist
I was I pretty much had chapstick in my hand
the entire trip in Vegas
wow did it help you
did you feel like chapstick came through frame?
I still ended up with correct, crusty lips by the time we were done.
But once the plane, once I got out of the plane in the Carolinas, it was like, it was like my skin just sucked up all the moisture in the air.
Yeah. It doesn't, it's weird that if you grow up in an area like that and then you experience a dry climate, it really does have this immediate effect.
But I can tell you that Kim never, her skin's never gotten used to it.
She still has to hydrate like a wild person.
up here yeah because her mississippi skin just still like gasping for for moisture while you know
i'm like a dirty old rock out here nothing nothing bugs me but i go to mississippi and i feel like
i'm going to drown well i feel like i'm going to drown most days here too i don't like the humidity
i just um you live with it you know you live with i guess i need to accept it yeah you've come to
accept what your fate is in this world yeah i i was shocked you know bobby uh renounced science
while we were there in Vegas he uh yeah he had such a great run with uh with craps that
science went out the door and luck and superstition took over this is uh i'm announcing it now that
instead on tuesdays instead of talking about science i'm going to talk about all the little
things you need to get exactly right to win at craps there's a i know the table you got to be at
you got to order a gin and tonic it's got to be from that waitress you got to be wearing the right
clothes. You drink from the straw on the right side of the glass. Yeah. And I'll tell you, because
And Claire can't sit down and play is the other. That's the other distraction. Yeah, that's it. Once Claire
sat down, it was, it was, this is going the wrong direction and I left. It was game over. So your first time with
craps though, just let let's look at that from the eyes of a science, science focused person like you.
Yeah, yeah. It probably is a game where you, you know about all the, you know, house, house edge and all the stuff.
Yeah, sure.
you're still, that process is still you going, how can I master this thing, right?
Right. Yeah, yeah. And it's funny, I was, I chatted a little bit with Wendy about this
at breakfast one day after I did play Kreps. So it was my first time playing craps, my first
time gambling at a casino period, you know, and, and like you said, I know how the brain
works. I got a degree in experimental psychology. I studied how all this.
is supposed to, you know, stimulus response and all these kinds of things.
Yeah. And, um, and I knew going in, you know, did all the, I knew to do the things that
you're supposed to do. I had a set amount of money. That's all I was going to spend. I put it in.
Once I was out, I was going to be out, right? Mm-hmm. Um, but I started to win and, uh,
make some money. And that was pretty exciting. Yeah. Yeah. Um, fortunately, fortunately, actually, um, I had, uh,
Brian teaching me how the rules work, but I think more importantly for the fact, because I put $50 in and I walked away with 300, so I, I'm, you know, that's really good bit. But I don't think I would have walked away with that much if Mitsula hadn't been there. And because he kept giving me, he kept reminding me and giving me advice. He was like, okay, you're at 150. You had put 50 in, but now what you got to do is set your floor at
50 bucks he was like that way now you're betting only on house money you're not spending so if you
get down to 50 bucks just walk away that's your new bottom and every time my every time i would make
some money he'd remind me okay adjust that floor now you know make sure and that's the way to do it
it's a new floor and you do a floor and a new ceiling right or a ceiling right so basically like
oh if i get to 200 now my floor is going to be 150 and i'm exactly it's like you're working in
between this floor and ceiling, right?
Exactly, yeah.
And that's the way to do it to make sure that, because that's, so that's what I did.
I said, I got to a certain point.
I was at like $375 or something like that.
And I said, okay, my new floor is $300.
Then Claire joined the game, and I got down to $300.
Drop like a rock.
Wow.
But still, walking away with money that you didn't have when you got there, it's a good feeling.
For sure.
Oh, it was exciting.
So this is what I was talking to Wendy about, right, is that I did all that.
I made all the right choices.
I got up and I joked while we were playing that like, oh, I'm hot now and, and, you know, everybody, you know, I know what I'm doing.
You know, I made all the jokes, but walked away just fine.
Sure.
And, you know, had went to the, that was a fun experience going up to the like cashier and like cashing in and getting like $100 bills.
That was really fun.
Yeah.
Um, but, uh, but went to bed and, uh, woke up the next day. And I had just thrown the, the money on the nightstand. It was super. It was late. I was tired. So I woke up and I get, take out my, I get in the shower, gather up and stuff off the, the end table, the nightstand. And I saw the, the $100 bills there. Yeah. And I'm not joking. I literally picked it up and said to myself, and this was a serious thought that I had.
I said, I could probably do that again.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
That's how you get started.
As soon as I had that thought, that very serious thought, I like, it was like, I shook my head and I was like, oh, God, what am I doing?
And that's just such a testament to how addictive gambling can be, I guess.
You just have to make sure you have, you know, that you're in the right mindset, you know, that you set rules for your stuff.
and you always stick to them and stuff like that.
Yeah.
And that's the thing I've always liked about Brian's gambling methods is that he's always
got a plan, is always a plan to when to get out of there.
He's not a guy that's going to be there at four on his last leg, maxed a credit card out.
I'm going to get it back.
I'm working back up.
Yeah.
No, it's the, that floor ceiling thing is just such the key.
It's just basically saying, okay, all right, I'm up.
Now my ceiling's a little higher and my floor raises up with it.
And so I want to, you know.
But also importantly, don't go in.
That's the thing that shocked me the most about what I said to thought to myself real quick that I could do this again, is that I think the most important thing is these rules you set for yourself are not rules to make money.
Right.
No.
They are rules to make sure you don't spend more than you were going to because you really should just be going in and expecting to have fun.
Expect to lose it all.
Right.
But don't bet anything that you're not okay with losing because you're going to lose.
You're going to lose.
Yeah, basically the money is spent the second I take it out of my wallet and put in the machine.
It's like, oh, if I get anything back, that's great.
But I'm paying for the entertainment for however long this lasts in here.
And there have been times, like I don't go up to, we have a gambling town maybe about half an hour away from me into the mountains called Blackhawk.
Blackhawk in Central City.
Yeah, yeah.
And there have been times that I, there was a time I went up there, put my $200 on the craps table and rolled, got up to $400, set my new ceiling as $350 and $450 basically, dropped down to $350.
And I'd only been there for half an hour and was like, well, it took me half an hour to drive here, but I'm pulling my money now because that was my floor.
And I got to resist the marriage today.
but I spent all that time getting up here
I should at least keep playing
when you start having thoughts like that
you're in the dangerous direction
that's when you lose money
exactly and
I can already guarantee you
that when we go next year
it was a fun
craps is legitimately a fun game
so I know I'll play it again
yeah yes
so but I know
I know already
that when I go
and when I lose money
I'm going to be disappointed
Yeah.
Because the first time I played, I won.
Yes, exactly.
So it's going to be about fighting that urge to be like, oh, man, I lost this money.
Maybe I should just try again, you know?
Right.
But you have to make sure you don't.
It's just you have to, oh my gosh, the first time you make an exception, you're done.
You should never play again.
It's almost better if the first time you play, you lose because it's like, okay, yeah, yeah, this is what will happen.
Yeah, I kept, that was the other thing.
Like we talked about the, you know, here's the pass line, here's the combats, here's this
bet you take your odds
blah blah blah but I also kept saying
it's rarely ever like this
you're rarely going to have an experience
I appreciated that I actually really did appreciate that
because I kind of it being the first
experience that I had I kind of thought like
well is this game just
easy but you
you and Mitsula both
kept making the point this is really unusual
because it wasn't just me winning
you were winning
like so
it's actually not a surprise that the both of us were
because I was using the same strategy as you were, right?
Because you showed me what to do.
But yeah, that's unusual.
It's very unusual.
The next thing is then teaching you all how to do it at the table because it's not a matter
of just saying, all right, well, I'm going to put my money there, and I'm going to put my money there, and I'm going to put my money there.
Because the guy on the other side of the table, the casino and play, will slap your hands if you do that.
You basically have to set it in front of you and say, give me the eight, give me the six, put this on that.
the only ones you can really put your money into yourself or the pass line and the come uh the come
line or the come area yeah yeah and so this this i was going to ask you that very question bobby
now that you've had your taste here on the digital version did you feel like at all like man i'd
really prefer a table because i feel like these machines like there's always a sense that the
machines could be a little more advantageous for the house like how do you really know that they're
not rolling i don't have any thoughts like that about which one's advantageous versus another one i i am
I would imagine that it's just all random, right?
Yeah, yeah.
But I do want to try playing.
So I really appreciate, I think playing where we played at this,
what was it, the stadium craps, you call it?
Yeah, stadium gambling, basically.
Stadium gambling where we were all sitting there together.
That was fun, and I would like to do that again,
because it's just you're all just hanging out together.
Yes, and you can't get as loud and rowdy and crazy as like that at the tables.
You got to have a little bit of decorum, not a lot,
you can still yell and share and be goofy at the tables.
But I would like to try at the tables because there's a whole, I was reading a little bit about the rules.
Because now that I had a taste, I wanted to better understand.
It's still a confusing game, how you bet, right?
Oh, yeah, for sure.
So I was reading a little bit about it.
And there's all these other things like how when, you know, people are rolling the dice at an actual craps table.
And, you know, there's rules about when the dice get passed, who should be.
doing what there's like multiple people
do with the dice like if you
basically there's a plane created
by the outside of the craps table
and the dice cannot leave that plane you can't pick up
the dice and say all right because
they want the they want the dice to
stay above the table you can only use one hand you can't
put the dice in two hands and do that
yeah and you will watch
the most superstitious people
like that's why
I really want to go it's fascinating
like they have to do this thing
where they put the dice
You know, Barry will set the dice in a certain way, and he does that, not out of superstition, but just out of, like, habit.
But there are people who do it, and it takes, like, a minute for them to set the dice the way they want before they pick it up and throw it.
You get people with notepads who write down every roll of the dice thinking that that's, that there's some reason for that.
Sure.
Yeah, just like when you're playing at the stadium gambling, it tells you on the different bets how many roles it's been since the last time that.
was rolled and that's like basically just like it's non-information like it doesn't matter
it's there to make people think oh seven a seven hasn't come up in a long time this is the
time to play the game yeah yeah yeah i like the i like the big fat physical dice uh and i'm guessing
that that obviously that would be so much easier just to have a little digital dice roller
but i think that's what people would be weird about they want that they want to see dice roll
and physically move around so that they're like, okay, well, that's real dice.
This isn't just some computer foolery or whatever.
And I like that.
I thought that was cool.
It had a little nipple camera that looked down on it.
Yeah.
And it was like a pop.
What was that old board game as kids?
A pop-it game.
It's trouble.
Pop-a-matic trouble.
Yeah.
Exactly like pop-a-matic trouble.
Love that.
So cool.
I picture a little dude in there doing it, though.
Like a little person.
Yeah, just like pushing on it, like doing this and taking a break, smoking, you know,
and then do it again.
Yeah.
Pretty good.
Well, good job, Bobby.
Well, done with your take.
You took the casino for all they had.
Nice job.
Nicely done, sir.
I think they had a lot more than that.
I was trying really, really hard.
Yeah.
Well, well, well, done.
Any anything else you wanted to cover today?
You got any hot?
I mean, you know, I was going to talk a bit about jet lag,
but we could talk about that next week because I wanted to thank September for the karaoke night that she put together.
I thought that that was a fantastic.
One of the highlights of the week.
and then it was just
it was just a really fun time
you know what I noticed the most
was that when I got there and I saw
everyone it felt like
it had been just yesterday
you know what I mean
yeah yeah yeah it's weird
it's really weird how that feels
as soon as I saw people that I was like
oh yeah right and then even new people
like I don't know when I first saw Claire
and she freaked out like a banshee
and ran up and hugged us or whatever
I just remember thinking oh yeah of course
this is right this is exactly how it's
supposed to be. This is how my greeting from Claire was supposed to go. My only regret about this
or any other event ever, including all the nerdtaculars, all of it, I can't stand it when I hear
that somebody was there that has been, was there for the first time. And for whatever reason,
we never crossed past. I didn't get to talk to him. I freaking hate that. So. And I thought about that.
It's like, I don't want to have to do, you know, have to do some sort of structured receiving line kind
of thing. You know, I don't want to say, all right, everybody.
has to walk by Scott and I because if you're if you're nervous we want to make sure we spend
the same amount of time with everybody but it's also like I totally understand there are people
who go there and they're nervous and it's like oh man I'm I even though Scott and I're
just we're just we're nervous dudes too and the other thing is we were like I always do look for
somebody off to the side I'm like wait do I have we met them maybe not let's go talk to
yeah so I try but I just there's always somebody I miss and I hate that feeling so if any of you
were those people that we missed somehow? Hopefully it wasn't many of you. Just know we, A, we would
never do that on purpose. And B, next time we just will make sure, we'll do better, all right?
Because I always feel bad. And I hope he's still had a great time, no matter what.
For sure. Yeah. Well, Bobby, it was great having you, of course. And, uh, thank you very much.
Now that he's home. I wanted to thank everyone for that. Oh, yeah. It was great, right?
Very, very fun. Well, thank you. Thanks for being part of it. It was, uh, you brought a lot to it. And
your word palace
might be
tied for my favorite things
to come out of Taskville this year.
It was one of the most amazing,
freaking weird
like techniques I'd ever
witnessed. You blew my mind.
And you made it three-fourths of the way
around the board with that.
Yeah, just by memory.
And it was a
because you didn't get to film it,
TV's Travis
is, it has the
has the sole privilege of being able to
he was the one who was walking with me
while I was memorizing it all and that was just a
fantastically fun time
trying to come up with a story to
memorize the entire I don't I don't know much about
Vegas so all of those properties even are just like
like I have no connection to them sure
well a lot of them aren't even around anymore too yeah
so it was it was a lot of fun
Oh, yeah. Where's my board down here? Oh, I left it upstairs. We should show people the board because it's actually kind of classic and awesome. I got one of them. Yeah, that was awesome. Well, Bobby, it's always good to talk to you. Tell me about all around science, what you guys are talking about now that you're home and all that. What are you doing?
All Around Science. The episode that just went out yesterday, who knows what it's about. I edited it like two and a half weeks ago. You should check it out, whatever it's about. It just came out. And I know that.
Tonight we're going to be talking about, I'm going to start, I want to start talking about
logical fallacies and errors in thinking more often in our podcast.
And so the episode that we're recording tonight and this episode will come out next week
is going to be all about what's called the appeal to nature fallacy.
And how just because it's natural doesn't mean that it's good.
but so many people think that that's true
and then I probably am going to talk more
about logical fallacies
and cognitive biases a lot more
on this show going on in the future.
Oh, nice. That's a topic I really enjoy.
I will check these out for sure.
It's Bobby Frankenberger, everybody.
You know him, you love him,
and you'll see him next week right here on this show.
Bobby, thanks for being here.
We'll see you next time.
All right, how do I hang up on this
without being a problem? Let's try it.
He's already out.
No, I know, but so I don't.
lose you. There we go. Oh, okay.
I don't see
the same thing you do. I just see us back to being the two
of us in Discord. So I'm like, oh, what are you trying to do?
Yeah, I give a whole, it's this whole window,
this extra window that I could probably just minimize
and ignore her. Oh, gotcha. Okay.
I could probably ignore it, but I do it with both Tom and him
and just about half the time, it resets our call, which doesn't make any sense.
Anyway, uh, well, there's, there, there it is. There,
there it goes. That's the show. There it goes.
Watch it as it goes. Watch it as it goes. It just left. And, uh, if you
want to watch it. Oh, I got good news. So something I wanted to mention about the new YouTube
streaming. So we're still on YouTube streaming. It's been going great so far. I think we're going to
hang around here unless there's some magical reason why I shouldn't. Frogpants.tv still takes you to
live show. All right. So if you're trying to get there, that still resolves to the live show. It used to
be Twitch now. It's over here on YouTube. Now, here's the thing. Some of you on our Patreon were like,
well, I really love the extra content top and bottom of the show, like our pre-show and post show.
which is what we give patrons.
If you're a live watcher, you show up here and you happen to see that too because you're here live,
so you get some of that pre-show and post show as well.
What I used to do was delete that version of it and re-upload a show that is just start to finish normal show
so that we're not giving away patron stuff for free.
And on Twitch, you could get around that because the VODs were just there and you could go watch the whole thing.
So the new thing is this.
When we're done here, the live stream goes unlisted.
and we still upload
a public version of the show
for all the world to see
but the unlisted one
will go back to patrons
as a special link
that no one else gets
and you guys can have
all of it including chat replay
all the post and pre
all that stuff.
I've already mentioned this
on the Patreon
so they've already heard this
but in case you missed it
or otherwise we're curious
or just want to join Patreon
to get it
that's where that's all going.
That's cool.
Yeah,
no, that was wondering
how that all worked
so that's very cool it's working out pretty well um and also speaking of patrons i haven't mentioned
their names in a while but we got a bunch of them holy cow yeah so here are these names bat dan
john baker john rawlins uh Craig carlson Chris shultz Dave spangler derog just derog
derog that's all I got derog derog you are without honor son of son of mogue that's right
Jeff Jones uh Zach Grasham Conrad D. Othweenne orthween
North Wayne, North Wayne, might be correct.
And Elvish Link also joined us.
Oh, ho, ho.
Anyway, if you want to be one of these fine people and get no commercials ever, pre-show content every day,
couch parties on the weekend.
We're going to finish Vegas vacation on Friday.
That'll be fun.
Art and a mail.
Other great monthly benefits.
Go check it out.
That's patreon.com slash TMS.
Let's get out of here.
Play some music, Brian, before my ears complain.
Okay.
I've got some music to play for you, Scott.
This one is going out to Andrew Lyons.
This is timely, even though he requested this back on the 26th of last month, right?
So it was a few days ago.
Hey, Schooner and Bow Rider.
I don't really have a good reason for this request other than liking these covers.
Ooh, how about commemorating the 25th month since the Evergreen managed to get stuck in the Suez Canal?
Oh.
Yeah, that'll work.
Both of these songs are about maritime mishap.
So the theme matches pretty well.
I'm a bit of an everything fan when it comes to music.
And that includes Bluegrass Punch Brothers,
are hands down my favorite bluegrass group.
And their covers of Another New World by Josh Ritter
and Rick of the Edmund Fitzgerald originally by Gordon Lightfoot
are both excellent.
Love the show, though, Arborist and Drew.
Nice.
Well, naturally, because we lost Gordon Lightfoot yesterday, passed away.
Oh, I didn't even hear about that.
Yeah, passed away.
I don't know how old, but...
Must have been very old.
old, right?
I think he's very old, yeah.
I mean, because when I was eight, I got a little plastic suitcase turntable.
It was red.
Outside was white.
You opened it up in the turntable inside.
Sorry, my thing went nuts.
Sorry, go ahead.
Got this plastic turntable and a stack of about eight, 45 RPM, you know, little 45 singles.
Yeah.
And the Who behind Blue Eyes was in there.
And paper lace, the night Chicago died.
and then another one was
Sundown by Gordon Lightfoot,
and I played the crap out of that thing.
It was something about his voice
that was just so soothing.
84.
Oh, that's pretty good.
That's pretty good.
So naturally, the song I chose is
Rek of the Edmund Fitzgerald
performed here by Punch Brothers.
This is from their 22 album,
Hell on Church Street,
just came out last year,
and it's great.
Here are the Punch Brothers
and Rek of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
The legend lives on from the Chippewa down of the big lake they call Gichi Gumi.
The lake it is sad never gives up her dead when the skies of November turn gloomy.
With a load of iron or 26,000 tons more than the Edmund Fitzgerald
wait empty
That good
Ship in true was a bone
To be chewed when the gales of
November came early
The ship was the pride of the
American side coming back
From some mill in Wisconsin
As the big faders go
It was bigger than most
With the crew and good captain
Well seasoned
concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
when they left fully loaded for Cleveland
And later that night when the ship's bell rang
Could it be the north wind they'd been feeling
The wind in the wind in the wind in the wires
made a tattletail sound
and a wave broke over the railing
And every man knew
As the captain did too
Towards the witch of November
Come stealing
The dawn came late
And the breakfast had away
When the gales of November
Came slashing
When afternoon came
It was freezing rain
In the face of a hurricane
West wind
When supper time came
The old cook came
on deck saying fellas it's too rough to feed ya at 7 p.m. a main hatchway caved in
he said fellas it's been good to know ya the captain wired in he had water coming in
and the good shipping crew was in peril and later that night when his lights went out
of sight came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours?
The searchers all say they'd have made white fish pay if they'd put 15 more miles behind her.
They might have split up or they might have capsized.
They might have rolled deep into water.
And all that remains is the faces and the names of the wives and the sons and the daughters.
Lake here on roads, the Pibir sings in the rooms of her ice water mansion.
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams, the islands and bears are a sportsman.
And further below, Lake Ontario takes.
in what Lake Erie can center
And the iron boats
Go as the mariners all know
With the gales of November
Remember
In a musty old hall in Detroit
They prayed in the maritime
Sailor's Cathedral
The church bell chime till it rang
29 times for each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald
The legend lives on from the Chippewan, down of the big lake they call Gitchie Gumi.
Superior, they said, never gives up her dead when the gales of November come early.
