However, we did have new sidewalls put on about 10 years ago. Tell us, Mrs. Adams, what has been your experience with these asbestos cement sidewalks? I can't even hurt a fish. The Morning Stream Gads the baby Good morning and welcome to TMS. This is the morning stream for Monday, October 16th, 2023. I'm Scott, that's Brian.

Hello, Scott. Welcome to another week. Yeah, baby. Woo! The beginning of the week, as we know it. Yep. And I feel. fine. I actually do feel fine. I feel pretty good today. Yeah. How are you feeling? Are you feeling

all right? You got a good weekend behind you? Do you feel like it was a productive time, a good time? I had a weekend, Scott. Yeah. Do you want me get into it? Should I get into it? Get right into it. Get right into it. Dive in like you're swimming or whatever. I currently, I currently have no soul, Scott. Oh shit. I have no soul. Oh no. We got it. We got to all gather together and give Brian a soul back. How do we do this? Exactly. Well, on Friday, Tristan's roommates were borrowing his car to go to work, and they got into a little bit of an accident, enough of an accident that the airbags deployed, but not enough of an accident that anyone's hurt. They're a little sore still from the stop. It was his girlfriend and their other roommate. And so, you know, it used to be timing-wise, Tristan could take them to work, be home, and then, you know, and then go to his job. And it worked out time-wise.

But now they're kind of on a way different schedule. So they just borrow his car and go to work. And then on the days that he does after work, he just goes with him, obviously. Makes sense. But they got into a little bit of an accident. Enough of an accident that the car had to be towed away. Okay. You couldn't drive away under its own steam or whatever they say.

Yeah, I was not able to do that. Enough crumplage in the front left of the vehicle, basically. She rear-ended the car in front of her and very minimal damage to the car in front of her, but the front of Tristan's car is pretty smashed. So we're waiting to hear what the insurance adjuster says and all that, but fortunately again, everybody's okay. But like the good dad I am, sucker. I'm letting him borrow my car, which means that, hey, I'm just trapped here in the house.

unless Tina's home and I can use her car but it also means no lift stories for a few days at least until things come back so it's a really good time for me to to work on that the streaming stuff like the I have two last Iron Man pieces I'm going to put together on stream and another part of the Millennium Falcon

should be showing up this week and all salads from here on out that's all you're going to get well yeah and I've been I've been trying to do well with that too because lately, you know, we've been going out to dinner a lot and, oh my God, we went to a boiling bag place like this Cajun, you know, it's almost like a, you know, it's one of those places where you get boiled seafood and potatoes and sausage like a, like a boil.

Yeah, that sounds amazing, like a crabbole. And, yeah, and you just basically say, all right, what do you want in your bag? I'm like, all right, I want half a pound of clams. I want half a pound of black muscles. um half a pound of shrimp heads off and one cluster of dungeness crab and then they bring it to you they dump it in it's all saucy and awesome the i don't know you know what happens to corn on the cob pieces in there but they turn into like like mush but yeah they don't always come out right those things i've noticed in fact i'm not sure i've ever had a crab boil there was always with corn like down south

Kim's family and stuff, not sure the corn was ever good. Yeah, it's, it's, it's so saturated with the sauces and stuff that it's like, they're not big, uh, uh, puffy kernels. They're like shriveled up, absorbed all the sauce flavor packets, but, um, it feels like something you found on the side of the road after a rainstorm. A little bit flavor, little corn cove, little corn kernel flavor packets that, uh, just love to wedge between your teeth. yeah i feel like maybe there's some there's a there's probably a taste for that for somebody but it ain't me i don't think yeah yeah i'll do it that said though oh my god great meal but still you know

you do you do enough uh going out to eat meals like that and it's like all right i need to my my lunches will be salads especially with two trivia nights this week oh wow monday night tuesday night trivia this yeah you're stacked up for that holy crap i am yep and that's always eating out because it's food trucks at both it's course plus you get so you get so you do some mind exercises today and tomorrow you know i do yes i i randomly think of uh um uh sports stadiums uh think of uh best actor nominees i think of uh yeah you can kind of actually this a great question can you sort of have any way of predicting you really can't can you no the only thing you can do i mean keeping up with current events because you know sometimes

these places do a current events around but the only training you can do is that loosen your mind recall training because it's like that um uh kind of like that if you're really struggling to remember something we do it all the time here on the show oh yeah and then as soon as we start thinking something else our brain relaxes on whatever we were trying to remember and it comes to us instantly yeah isn't that weird oh that guy that guy who's the guy's name uh anyway uh but i was on the street the other day oh yeah vincent seavelli or sheiavelli however was pronounced whoa i didn't expect him to come out of nowhere that's a good Well, that's a name that I was desperately trying to remember the other day because I saw a guy who looked like Vincent Schiavelli or Skiahvelli.

He never really did forget how to pronounce. And that's a very recognizable dude. Like if you say, oh, yeah, that guy looks like Vincent Skiahvelli. So it means to say, oh, wow, okay. Well, I can completely visualize what that dude looks like. That's great. And I was desperately trying to remember that guy's name. And then I thought of something else and it came to me.

So that's why that one was a recent. Well, that'll be fun, though. You'll have a good time. You'll have no car. Yeah, it'll be great. some trivia and yeah drive with tina take her car you know well you have to whatever you got to do uh well all right sorry to i'm i'm glad they're okay though that's i meant to say that earlier exactly yeah that's the that is the the key thing the key takeaway the important deal yes uh my wife

wanted me to share some some thanks to people collectively we've tried to do it individually we're you know she's always wanted to send out thank you cards and all that but the funeral happened on friday uh it was nice to get some closure uh by the way i dare any of you to ever have a eulogy where the word the words reduced libido gets said over a pulpit. Oh, geez, really? Yeah. I'm not going to

tell, I'm not going to tell that whole story here, but I will tell Brian off air because Brian will laugh at this and keep it to himself. But for the rest of you, just know that if you ever have on your bingo card reduced libido at a funeral

during a eulogy, well, I think the chances are low you'll over hear that and you would have if you'd have come to the funeral on Friday. Anyway, I saw a reduced libido open from Metallic at the Staples Center years ago. They were great. They were great. They were great. Yeah. That's some sound issues, but they figured them out. Yeah. And when they almost wrecked their Winnebago on that tour, that's when things kind of awkward. That's right. But anyway, she wanted to thank everybody for all their kind words, and we got a bunch of flowers and people sent nice things. and it was all very nice.

It was a good thing for everyone to finally have that day. That's what funerals are for. You know what? I kind of learned a lesson here about funerals. Funerals are something I don't look forward to. No one does. No one wants to have anyone die that they care about. All those things are terrible.

But I now get at why humans gather together, wearing their nice Sunday best, sit down and listen to people talk and reminisce and have a life sketch and do all the stuff they do. And the video montage on the screen in the back and the photos up on the thing. I know why we do that now. There is a need for people to have that stuff happen and close it out. When I was younger, I used to think, man, funerals are weird.

Why would you want to just spend like three hours feeling like shit? You know, I didn't understand it when I was younger. And I've had very few funerals in my life, to be honest. I'll probably count them on one hand. I could count them on one, no, I've been to a couple funerals. I guess I could count, yeah, one hand probably, though. Yeah, it's lower. It's kind of low.

I'm sure there are people with many. That number is going to pick up for us, Scott. Oh, boy. It's totally going up from here, dude. But it was nice. It was a good closurey thing outside of some weird stuff that came out of someone's mouth. But I won't talk about that today. I guess I just did.

Moving on. Let's talk about, oh, we got a phone call about phone jailbreaking. Oh, that I want to play real quick. Jailbricked phone? No, they did not. However, it's the most sensible answer. sir, I've gotten to the discussion we had about jailbreaking. And so here it is.

This is why you might still sidelode and jailbreak your phone. Hey, Scott. This is Keghapper calling to the morning stream yesterday, or today's show, actually. You were asking about why sidelode onto Apple. I used to work manual QA on the apps for Food Network, HGTV, that kind of thing, travel channel. And we would frequently side load new bill test onto the phone. So that was the reason why we did it.

We did that for all the connected to TV apps and that type of thing. And so it was very useful for us. Interesting. So. Yeah, totally makes sense. Yeah. Developers, developers, developers, developers, developers. It doesn't it make, I mean, doesn't it seem like you would have, if you're a

dev of a, you're part of a dev team that makes apps, I thought, I would assume that the tools allowed you to do this sort of thing anyway. I would think so. Yeah. It's weird that you have to... You use test flight. Yeah. Even if you use...

Yeah, that's a good point. Even if you just use test flight for it, that's the whole point of test flight. Right. So I don't know. I don't know why you'd have to... Now maybe we've asked more questions. We haven't really answered anything, I guess. Yeah, maybe.

That's what happens here on this show. We don't answer shit. You know, it's in my test flight, a bunch of those card crawl games that those guys keep putting out that I play once and forget to play more to give them feedback on. So, card crawl, if you're listening, sorry. I'm sorry. You're just as good a beta tester as I am. I'm a terrible data tester. People give me beta access

to games all the time, desktop stuff, whatever, and I'm like, yeah, early I, all right, let's go. And then I play it once and go, I'm going to play this when it comes out for real and not touch it again and never provide any feedback. That's exactly right. I do that. Wow.

Oh my God. What are we going to do Friday, Scott? What is our, because we've got both Mario and Spider-Man 2 coming out this Friday. What's, what's going to be your game? It's a big day. It is a big day, especially for a guy who's a fan, a massive fan of Spider-Man and Mario.

Well, the reviews are already in, Spider-Man 2, getting pretty much mostly positive reviews, a couple of middling, but mostly positive reviews saying it really ups the game and it's awesome and blah, blah, blah. No reviews yet for Mario Wonder. However, my mood right now is probably Spider-Man, I think. that's where my head's out. I'm kind of open-worldy at the moment, and I think I want that. I think I'm in exactly the same boat, especially because if I turn on my Switch

and I've already purchased, basically I did that thing where you pre-buy two games, you get two game tokens for brand-new games. So I use the first one on Zelda, and I'm using the second one on Mario. I feel like if I turn on my Switch and play Mario, I'm cheating on Zelda.

I'm cheating on that last boss. fight in Zelda I need to I felt like that with Breath of the Wild for a long time where I would play other stuff and go I'm sorry I moved your little icon over to the ride exactly yes yeah I understand that feeling guess what guys

we're going to play our own game here on the show Stephanie don't worry those aren't apps let me do a real quick thing though two things because I just talked about the soul I got a request from a listener who asked me to 3D print an IKEA chair. I texted you photos if you want to share those photos. Oh, absolutely, I do.

Yeah. Oh, sorry, I read the notes wrong. I was thinking I didn't mean to skip over your chair and the other thing. I know, I know, because you saw the soul and thought, oh, he's already done talking about things. No, no, it's quite a right. Let's see, I'm pulling up messages. Here we go. I love it when we can share images, except all you listening audience, we'll try to explain this over the air.

Okay, okay, here it is. Yeah, I'll share photos on all the Insta. Oh, the Insta. Yeah, put it on Insta, Brian. Put it on Insta. I'll put it on the Insta. Anyway, yeah, it's a little 3D printed Pong chair. Oh, this isn't a full-sized chair?

No, that is about two and a half inches tall right there. I'm blown away that. I mean, my brain went, oh, that's a chair. Okay, Brian made a chair, and it looks like a full-sized chair you could sit your ass on. All right, anyway, explain this. This is awesome. So it's the chair that Bree's husband plops into at the end of his day of work and just loves that chair. He pops in there, like just blop, slops in that chair.

So she asked me to 3D print one for him and paint it. And so I actually did the paint job to make it look like that light pine, even gave it little striations to make it look like wood. and then and then did some stuff with a dry brush to make the cushion look like a real, a real cushion. This is great. I love this.

This is so, this is so, how do I put this? This makes me want you to make like a whole miniature like house full of miniature shit in it. You know what I mean? I could.

And it's funny because the person, because she downloaded the, the, the STL for this incentive. to me. Yeah. So, which I can do. By the way, oh, yeah, look at this, look at this wargan.

Ooh, look at the wargand. Oh, shit. That guy looks like as someone who could turn into a man and then back into a wolf. Exactly. So, yeah, so if you, uh, if you people want stuff commissioned printed, let me know, email me. But, um, but the person that she got this STL from just does STLs of IKEA furniture and has a ton of them. So, like, you can, you can download the Billy bookcase or the Calax.

shelves or whatever and like have a whole three team so it may not even be a three printed house scott it could be a 3D printed ikea store display like one of those rooms yeah i was this funny you bring that up i was just in ikea yesterday marvelling at these small like they have a six here's a 600 square foot apartment and um i walked in there i was tempted to film a short story that made it look like i was in there you know but then pull it out and go whoa we're in an ikea and i didn't do it oh my you God, you know, it would have been great, because you could have done, like, a little sad narration of you, like, listfully looking at something while you're laying on the bed, and then another position, like, looking at their fake computer. Yeah.

With some, like, a piano, you know, NPR piano music in the background. Yeah, see? See, you know, exactly what I was exactly aiming for such things. This is what I wanted. Here's what I really want. When I go to IKEA, they always have these fake TVs in these little fake living rooms. Yeah, yeah. I want to buy the fake TV.

They don't sell, though. No, I know. I want a flat panel fake. Can I somewhere? Probably Ali-Bobber or something, right? Yeah, definitely somewhere like that. Tina and Tristan Kay and I did our Christmas cards at IKEA several years ago. We took mugs and a tripod and we took our Christmas card photos like we were sitting in an IKEA and then made the Christmas card look like a page from the catalog.

Wow. So we were like the, you know, cheering with our coffee and our slipper. on our feet up on the table and that's amazing. Yeah. I thought I sent you on. I'm pretty sure I sent you. You probably did and I just didn't know this backstory. It's just been a long time. It's just been a long time.

All right, I found a place that does nothing but props. Computer, fake computers, fake candy, fake whatever. And they've got a whole set of TVs from 22 inches up to 60. I think I'm going to get one. Black Friday sales, Scott. You'll be able to get those pennies on the dollar. I know, right? Let's see. Price range.

I want to go 100 to 200. Let's see what I got here. All right, I can get a 60-inch mountable, flat, fake screen TV. Oh, they're expensive, $119 bucks. Is that Propsamerica.com? Yeah. I see Biocat. I just put a link up in there.

Yeah, that's where I'm at. Wow. That seems price. Crazy. Yeah, that seems a little high. It's a little high. I think for $100 more, you could get one that works, like a real one. Yeah, I agree.

I may not be 4K, but look at all this fake food they've got. Oh, man. Cookies. They got a whole cereal breakfast for $30 And it's a fake bowl of cereal Full of milk and a spoon Fake orange juice Shit, I love stuff like this

Fake Christmas cookies for 50 bucks I don't know why I love this kind of thing so much I do though Yeah Fake stuff, love it Don't know why Except boobs, I'm not into that All right

Well there you go Oh, how was haunting of Venice real quick What was your review? Give me a score I don't know if a hunting in Venice was made so much better by the crap that was just a haunting or the haunting but

as the third Hercule Poirot movie yeah holy crap it was good Tina Faye was excellent Kelly Riley who we all love in Yellowstone and uh oh yeah I love her she's in that Frankie and Grace and um

she's got she's just got some really like amazing eyes that Kelly really yeah there's something something about her for sure yeah Ken look away from those eyes anyway the um uh the movie was great and i would say it's up there with um maybe even maybe even liked it better than murder on the orient express as far as the trilogy so far i don't know if they're going to make more if this is if it's three and out for um agatha christie

but uh yeah this would be the time they'd either get out or or bear down right exactly yeah but no it was i thought it was really good and it's weird having a you know you've got your Your weird hybrid movies. I just watched a time travel slasher that I'll talk about on Wednesday. We've had superhero heist movies and, you know, all sorts of different combinations. I don't know if I've ever seen a horror mystery before. Interesting. Yeah, I mean, Angel Heart could kind of be maybe described as a horror mystery.

Could see that, sure. But this one was just straight up horror mystery. And damn, it's way scarier than the... first two films and really really good though i'm uh curious about it i like the first one didn't see the second one because everyone said it was bad and so i avoided it yeah great cast great cast on all three of these but uh yeah yeah i don't know why the second one just fell flat well that probably means it's like the oceans movies right 12 sucked yeah so you got you got 11's great or 12 sorry 12 no wait yeah ocean's 11's great sorry 11's good 12 sucks what's the number before 12

but yeah i mean there's you know there's a few trilogies if you just look at the initial indiana jones trilogy the lesser of the three yeah is the is the middle one i don't think it's i think you and i both agree it's not nearly as bad as um uh crystal skull oh hell no yeah i'll take two i like two but i but i'm not going to sit there and argue it over either of the other two movies but yeah like dark calhoun star trick movies are exact opposite

two is great and one and three are kind of yeah the evens the evens in star trek are the winners yeah the odds in and the evens in uh star wars are often the winners too

yeah right although one's great but two you know empire everybody loves empire empire's great everybody how do you not like empire empire i mean my gosh who are who are the people that don't like empire strike exactly exactly i don't want to know i don't want to know those people I don't want to know them.

Yes. All right. Anyway, so good review for hunting in Venice. All right. Thumbs up from Brian. Both of them, right? Both thumbs up. All right.

That's better than that. Up in the air, like I just don't care. Yeah. Those are the ones. Let's see here. Who are we calling Dunaway? That's who? Let me add him to the thing.

We missed him last week. Let us rectify that mistake and bring him back in for today's fun time. Here's his deal. That music signifies the entrance of Brian Dunaway, who we didn't have last Monday on Wednesday, which made us all sad. It did. Randy would be fine. Don't get me wrong.

Randy was a fine Randy, but he's no Brandon. He's no Dunaway. Dunaway's the regular. Dunaway, what are you doing? How are you? Oh, hi Scott and Brian. Let me see. Enjoying the first truly feels like fall day.

where I live. Oh. Yeah. It's like, you know, I've had like little kisses here and there. It's like, oh, that cold wind. But no, this morning it was like, I need to get a jacket. Yeah. It's cold.

We're having that today. Weather foreplay period is over and now it's moved on. That's right. With the kissing of my neck is over, it is cold hands down my pants. See, that was you're at the same boat with how do I finish this analogy. That's right. That's a hard one to get to the end of. By the way, 56 here, currently in Salt Lake City.

It will be a high of 75 today. It would be very nice. Brian, what are we looking at in the metro Denver area? We're currently 71. All right. 71 today in Arvada. All right. We're all on the zone today.

Yeah. And then you and I will enjoy it without... We'll get into the zone. Without 400 pounds of moisture hanging all over the place like Brian will. And that's fine. Exactly. Dunnoy, speaking of your moisture, bring it to bear here in our contest that we do on Monday's called The Half Ases.

Brian Abbott here will explain it and tell us who we're playing for. Brian, take it away. Sure. Welcome to the morning. Half asses, a trivia game where I'm actually going to be giving you the answers. I'm going to give Scott and Brandon category and six possible answers. Three of which are correct, three that are incorrect. However confident you feel with the category, you can provide one, two, or three guesses. But if any of those guesses are wrong, you get zero points for that round. Get one right, gets you a point, gets two right, gets you three points, and get all three points.

You will get five points for that round. The player with the most points after three rounds wins. the prize of a other contestant. Hey, here's who you guys are playing for. Scott, you're playing for Amber Elstad in Portland, Oregon. Brian, you're playing for Kevin Moody in Brighton, Tennessee. Oh, Mr. Moody. Mr. Moody. We're keeping it in the south over there and keeping it in the west over here. This is great. That's right. Exactly. It's just weird how it sometimes lives up like that.

Yeah, that's right. Yeah, that's right. Behan, bant, man, man, bint. Exactly. All right, let's get to it here. Your first question and your six possible answers. Let's go baseball because we all know a lot about baseball. Oh, God. Let's get this one over first. All I know about baseball is the gum is terrible.

Yeah. That's so true. It's true. Well, you just watch Bull Durham. Maybe that'll help you with this. Major leaguers who pitched more than two no hitters. Which of these pitchers

pitched more than two no hitters? You've got Christy Matthewson. You've got Nolan Ryan, Ray, I'm sorry, Roy, no, Ray, Roy, Roy, Halliday. Ray, Ray, Ray. Call me Ray, Jay, you can call me. Anyway, Randy Johnson, Sandy Kofx, and Bob Feller, which three of these pitched no, more than two, no hitters.

That's Bob Feller. Feels like a long time ago, that guy. I'm doing two. Okay. Thank God I watched Bull Durham recently because that totally informed everything I chose today. That's right. I'm sure it did. good is a good practice for this putting on the old glasses um holy mackerel uh all right you guys both

settled in um missed them all yeah yeah nolan ryan is a very good choice because he pitched 21 no hitters i'm sorry 71 no hitters 72 no hitters so he was a very good choice another good choice is sandy cofax yeah oh really pitched four no hitters uh really is bob feller who pitched three Randy Johnson, the big unit who's known for his strikeouts, has only pitched one no-hitter as of the writing of this game. So 20-20, I believe this game came out. I haven't checked to see if he's Denny Moore or even if he's still playing baseball. Christy Mathewson, two, and Roy Holiday won. Nice.

Congratulations. Scott, going in round two. I met Nolan Ryan once a long time ago. Scott knows the balls. I met Nolan Ryan a long time ago, probably 90, early 90. nicest. Yeah, we went to some speech he did. That was the best time to meet him. He did like a talk somewhere. I can't remember why we were even there. None of that's memorable,

but he was very nice. Got to shake his hand. Super nice guy. I think he's still around. How did it feel? What kind of hand was it? You remember? He was a big hand. So people are about, people are saying that 71 is both incorrect, is a typo

on here. Look, I'm looking at it right now. It says 71, but you guys are telling me just seven, which makes a lot more sense. 71 no hitters But the card says moops Sorry Sorry card says moops That's the card says moops rule

That's what we do here All right Excellent Let's get to Let's get to clothing Fashion If you will I know you guys are big into this

And you both wear hats I know Scott wears a hat Brian do you wear hats ever Do you never watch my stream Do you never Oh he's all hats That's true. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, that's. I wear a hat every time. He's almost all hats. I know. You weren't wearing a hat, though. I can't remember the last. Oh, yeah, I guess you guys just saw each other. But I can't remember a time where I was either with you or saw you and you weren't wearing a hat. That's pretty rare. I love my hats, man. You do like a hat. What are you hiding? What are you putting on your head to hide? What is it? Horns. You got horns. You got some sort of bleeding ulcer up there. He has a Mohawk is what he's hiding.

All right. Which of these are types of headware? The Trier, the Lubeck, the Homburg, the Hamelin, the Rummel, Ruhmel, or the Trilby. Three of these are headware. Three of them are not headware. I have no idea. Not where I live. Yeah.

Not where I live. Wow. These sound like all like European names for stuff. They sure do. Oh my gosh. I don't even know where to start here. This is a couple of them sound like Russian, right? Yeah, they do a little of the rummel sounds Russian.

But I'm thinking a ruble. I don't know. But if you also told me this was all IKEA furniture, I would also go, okay. I'm going with two again. Oh, it does sound like IKEA. It does. That's funny. I'm going to be everyone.

I'm going to go with two as well. Okay. I'm going to go with two randomly selected headware possibilities. Excellent. You guys are both locked in. Hamburg, the H-O-M-B-U-R-G. That is a hat. Very good, you guys. Well done. Lubek.

Lubek is a German town. And Tomlin, Tomlin is also a German town, as is Trier. You've got three German towns and three hats, or three pieces of headwear. The Ruhmel and the Trilby. What's the Trilby look like? I want to

see the Trilby. I'm going to look. Trilby was the only one I recognized as being headwear. Oh, you'd heard of this before? You know what? I'm not surprised to hear that because you, oh, it's, yeah, it's like a, it's like a cowboy hat and a, and a fedora had a baby, kind of. Yeah, and you know what? My funny hat, because it has such a thin brim, actually might be a trilby.

Oh, interesting. Okay, so thinner brim. Yeah, look at that. You know, who looks good in hats. Let me tell you who looks good in hats. Who? Brian Ibbett looks good in hats. Oh, hell yeah.

Brian Ibbett looks good in hats. Hell yeah, dude. I just can't wear it over my head. I can wear baseball caps. That is the only hat I can wear. Oh, well, then, yeah, that's true. And that's all the hat you ever wear. It's all I ever see you wear.

Yeah, yeah. Or a stocking cap I can wear one of those. Oh, like a beanie, like type thing. Yes. Yeah, like a beanie. People are into the beanie. People like the beanies. Yeah.

I think I've seen, that's the kind of hat I feel like I've seen Brian in the most as a beanie. True story. Yeah. True story. Both. Those are my two faves. All right. Well, now that we've learned Trilby.

No points on that one. Let's get to the last one. You guys, I think I'll have a lot better time with this because you're both from the United States. So this is good. United States question. Sure. Which of these are U.S. national parks? Isle Royale, Great Sand Dunes, White Mountains, Monacoa, Shenandoah, Niagara Falls.

Mauna Kia. One of these feels like a trick question. Not a Mona IKEA. I think I like... Mauna Kia. I think I like... I locked in with two. I did two as well.

I look forward to losing. I did two as well. All right. You'll never win with two, but yeah, go ahead. You guys both locked in on the Great Sand Dunes. That is right here in Colorado, and it is a national park, and it's a lot of fun. I knew that one. You can snowboard.

Take a snowboard, you can snowboard down the Great Sand Dunes. Can you do four-wheeler stuff? Are they not allow that there? I don't know if they allow that there. They might not. Yeah, National Park may not be allowed to do that. Motorless stuff. The other two are Isle Royale.

Isle Royale. Where's that? I don't know where Isle Royale is or the Isle Royale with cheese. And Shannon Doa. I knew it. Shannon Doha, crap. Brian also gets to. What?

It's in the song. We've touched. Sanadoa to the Blue Ridge Mount. What has the song go? I knew it was some places. Shannon Doe. No, Blue Ridge Mountain to Colorado. I don't know how.

Blue Ridge, yeah, something like that. It's from Shenando to the West Virginia. This land was made for you and me. Don't think they say Shenando on that one. Yeah. The other three, by the way, White Mountains are a national forest. Niagara Falls is a national heritage area. And Mauna Kea is a U.S. national landmark, not a park.

That's in Hawaii. Is that in the Hawaiian Islands somewhere? That is in the Hawaiian Islands, yeah. Okay, all right. Which means, my friends, we have a tie game. We do. We have a tie. I pull out a tie breaker question.

Zheep, right here in my hands of the tiebreaker question. Let's give Scott the first one on this one. All right. Through the Simpsons' first 400 episodes, how many jobs did Homer have or mention having? So we all know Homer's had a lot. A lot of jobs. Yeah.

He was a mascot for the isotopes. Don't tell him all the jobs. Well, okay, so now he knows it's more than one. Yeah, I do know it's more than one. God. Oh, my God. I should have looked at question number two on this thing because it's more perfect for us. Oh.

What do you use that one? Use that one. Well, I mean, it's fine. So you say the first 400 episodes, you say? Through the first 400 episodes, how many jobs did Homer have or mention happening? having um i live it happening the happening having having having having i'm gonna say i'm gonna watch that on phone sec oh yeah i can't wait uh 20 20 jobs i'll say okay 20 is incorrect brian is the actual answer higher or lower than 20 i mean there's four episodes i mean at least

a third of those is probably mentioned some kind of job i would say definitely higher it is definitely higher 188 different jobs including astronaut fortune cookie writer marriage counselor and opera singer Dude, this game, I was so confident going into the final round. I was ready to win this game. But instead, I freaking lost it. I am so sorry to our friend in Oregon to Amber for losing our terrible loss here. It's all right. She's still going to walk with a prize.

By the way, the other question I could have asked you guys, how many ingredients are in a McRib sandwich? Oh, man, that would have been great. I know, because... I mean, we could do it for fun. You want to do it for fun? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Doneaway, what do you say? How many? Well, there's a bun, there's a pickle, there's onions, there's the Merrick rib, and then there's the sauce. That's at least five right there. Now you say ingredients, do you mean breaking it down to like flour and the bread and everything else? I'm not sure, but I'm going to say-

Ingredients. Oh, you do? Okay, in that case, multiply at times four, so let's probably say about 25 or so. I'm going to say higher. The actual answer is. higher, it's 70 ingredients and a McRib sandwich. Nice.

70. Holy shit. Yes. The McRib was born in 1981 as a substitute for McNuggets, which kept selling out. So basically it's like,

people keep wanting to make nuggets. What do we do? I know. We'll come up with something that's completely not chicken as a replacement. Well, I mean, chicken would be a problem,

so I guess they went with a different type of meat. Is it a different type of meat? It is. It's pork. Supposedly. Yeah, supposedly. I mean, it's pork bite.

You said it's, you said like you knew. It's pork, it's pork-like. It's porkish. Yeah, porkish. That's the way you put it. I'm feeling a bit porkish today. That's funny. Well, I'm happy that we have winners today.

That's good news. So congratulations, Kevin Moody in Brighton, Tennessee, and Amber Estadden, Portman. Oh, yeah. Kevin, you're getting a copy of Flynn, son of Crimson, and Pilgrims, and Amber, you're getting a copy of Stick Fight. So, fight those sticks. That's a good one. That's a good one. That's actually pretty.

good yeah it's better than you think it's it's stick men but it's it's a cool game uh very cool hey done away nice job uh real quick here this is just a reminder we're not even to wednesday yet we'll we'll tell people again about it but on friday uh we will be doing our show uh play retro this week you've got a birthday thing on wednesday and we want to make a wide berths for that so we're going to record on friday 230 mountain time uh that'll be well after uh we finish up our couch party and all that stuff. So be here for that. What are you going to be talking about? Do you know yet? We do. It is going to be, Brian, remind me shit.

I'm right. I am hoping it will be horror arcade shooters. Oh, right. Lightgun, horror arcade shooters. That's right. Horror arcade shooters. Like, I guess Splatterhouse is a side scroller, not a shooter, right? Right, right, right. Correct. So we got like a chiller, crypt killer. House of the Dead The Dead In there you go What else?

You could probably count that Terminator game in there It's pretty scary Yeah It's a little sci-fi I actually That kind of thing Yeah area 51

That's right You get the big rifles Right I ordered a sensor bar For my computer So I can use my Wii moat So that I can use My little gun Wii moat thing

For shooting I'm gonna see how it works out Nice You're a giant nerd For doing that I am a nerd I like it. I like it. I'm impressed. Done away and kiss our butts. We'll see you next time.

No, you. That was a good no you. I like that. Well done, everybody. Especially Brian. And congrats to our winners. Let's move on to, oh, we've got time. You know what? We'll do one news story. One. Can't believe we have time. Here you go. Enjoy it. Brian, it's the news brought to you by. Funeral potatoes. literal funeral potatoes. We had them on Friday. Literally funeral potatoes. Yeah. And they're great, by the way. I don't want to, this is not a besmirchment of funeral potatoes in the right hands. Clearly, these were done. They had a lovely dinner after the thing. And these potatoes were so good. Oh, my gosh. I'm sure that if I'd eaten another spoonful, I'd gained five pounds. But they were so good. So whoever that old lady, there was an old lady who made him. Whoever you are, you're awesome.

All right, quick news story here. We got an Amish man in the news. Amish man is in the news. Amish man. What's his power, Brian? What's he do? Able to withstand getting piles of corn dumped on him in a silo. But the people chasing him won't be so lucky.

Excelsior. Yes, specifically. That's a Amish boy, really. Amish lad. Amish lad. But who's the guy that got killed in that corn thing was, from from from from the lethal weapon movies yeah it's Danny Glover chasing after Lucas Haas that's right hell of a that movie's still good still holds up yes witness me

pretty much all Peter Weir movies hold up I don't care which one it is that guy made movies to last a lifetime anyway Amish man or men actual men a collection of men have been shunned after a nationwide emergency alert outs them for having phones. That's awesome. So that alert that we got last week, the 1220 test. Yep. Yep, that horrible test that thankfully didn't happen during any live shows, but still scared the shit out of me when it happened.

Oh, absolutely. It made me poop my pants. I wasn't ready for it. Anyway, this is buying a pair of basketball shirts. This is really great. Members of the Amish community have been shunned by their church after the recent test of an emergency alert system out of them as having procured forbidden mobile phones.

The alarms part of the nationwide emergency alert drill that the U.S. government carried out on the 4th of October drew the attention of the community elders in Ohio. Eli Yoder. Yoder. Yoder is an awesome name. Did you know a Yoder? I knew a couple of Yoters. A husband and wife named Yoder.

His name was Ted and Marybeth Yoder. In high school people, one of my nicknames was Yoder. And I don't know why. Really? Like, dude, you go, yo, Yoder. Yoder. I don't know why. That was the thing. Former member of the Amish community took to TikTok to share the story in which he explained how three of his old friends got into trouble after their devices were discovered. Hey, guess what? He says, I just got a couple of my Amish buddies shunned today by the Amish church. That's right.

He said, over the three years, there have been quite a few Amish men. I'll do it in his voice. He says, Amish men that reached out and wanted phones. So wherever they go milking, 430, time for milking. they request to have a phone I'll do everything I can to get them a phone not always can I do so but in some circumstances I have been able to get them my phone he still talks like an honest guy

people come to me when they want something I can get them a phone I can get them a rock hammer that was the last time I saw Hebadaya I'd like to tell you that the emergency alert didn't go off in their pockets

but I can't He milked 500 cows and came out clean on the other side. Anyway, that's a fun story to start you with and end you with today on our news. I'm glad we were able to report the news so that you all could be informed for the rest of your day. Good, nice brief news. I like a good brief news. I do too. That's a news brief.

Yeah, exactly. Speaking of briefs, no, I don't know about that. Science with Bobby coming up right after this break, the song break. And Bobby will be here to talk about some sort of science topic as he is a science podcaster, all right? Yeah. So sip still, get ready for that. Hey, Brian, what's the song break deal today? What do we do?

Well, I got a brand new band, but they've got a nice little pedigree in their producer. A guy named Mudrock who worked with Avenge Sevenfold, Lincoln Park, Godsmack, and Deftones, so you know it's got to be good. This is a new band called Stray and the Wild. Kind of dark alternative, think along the lines of like evanescence, but with a maybe a, lower register lead vocalist. Anyway, if you like Nirvana, Metallica, muse, run DMC, chili peppers. Oh, no, I take that back.

That's who mastered it. Howie Widenberg, who mastered Nirvana, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, muse, and run DMC. I wish I could master just one of those bands, but they're all too difficult. Anyway, maybe if I do one of them on easy mode. Anyway, this is Stray in the Wild,

and the brand new song, show me the way. Thank you. May God have mercy on the souls you say today Demotations hanging in the shadows and sway A faded ticket to one of the death parade I've been divided as the masses march away I won't break down Down to this

Just love hey save me No, hey, kill me Show me away Just show me away Love, save me Love, save me Love, kill me Show me why.

Just show me away. All habits make it by the words we're seeing today. things we dare not say A phoenix rises from the days we can't release I'm still divided and it's time to make a change I'll break down down to the end up Just law hate saying me

Tell me who that was again. Sure. That's the band Stray and the Wild. Brand new single, Show Me the Way. Nice. Very nice. Yeah.

All right. Make way for Bobby. He's coming in hot. He's, you know, he's this lookout. Oh, this thing always reminds me. We have multiple rooms with him, and so I should use one of the others.

But I'm like, no, I want him in this call. Exactly. This call. But you could use this other room with puppy. Forget it. I don't use this other room with puppy. Science. Bob is hungry, and the soup looks good.

Yeah, it does. Captain Bobby Frankenberger joining us right now all the way from South Carolina. We were just talking to someone from there. Bobby, welcome back to the show. How are you? I'm doing great. Oh, you sound like you got a cold. You sound like, what do you got there?

Some kind of southern cold, the croup? The croup. It was weird. My co-host, Mora, came and visited us from Canada. And she, the day she came, my voice just disappeared. No other symptoms. Yeah. But my voice just disappeared, went away.

I was paranoid. I was going to get her sick. So I was like checking my temperature, all this kind of stuff. And while she was here, my voice just disappeared over the course of an hour. I had no idea why. Wow. I was whispering for like a whole day because of it. And then in the subsequent days, it's come back.

But then I've gotten like sinus congestion and like runny nose and a cough and sore throat. Like I feel like the symptoms came in the reverse order. You know, I've never had to happen that way first. Yeah, usually right. You start off with the runny nose and the sore throat. And that's like the, that's like your early warning system saying, Hey, got a cold coming on. Yeah.

Get ready. Yeah, get ready for this. Yeah. And then I know to take it easy on my voice. Did you do that? Did you take some time with your voice? Or are you violating that oath now by talking to us? Well, I already lost the voice once.

I feel like I'll be fine. Yeah, sure. Yeah, you'll be right. It's coming back. Oh, good. So it's fine. Thank the Lord on high. Well, that's good news.

We're going to enjoy our time with you today because you've brought some sort of scientific study substance thing deal topic. I do. I want to talk about asteroid samples, but you talked about emergency alerts and it made me think, I wanted to ask you guys questions. Do you think, I would like to see numbers I wonder how many people got

into car accident, like if the car accident rate went up in that moment. Oh, I don't know. Because when it happened for me, I was driving and I was in the middle of going through an intersection. And then it happened and I like

was sure, somebody's going to hit me. Somebody's going to get distracted and hit me. You might think it's somebody honking that they're about to hit you. It's really close to the sound in movies and TV shows when you're watching the driver and you see the car coming from their side view window right at them. Yeah. That's wild. I didn't think about that.

Like, I was sitting here working and it freaked me out to the point of, I think I typed a bunch of gibberish because my hands jerked. Your hands flew forward onto the keyboard. Yeah, something like that happened. And then I think my wife, that may have happened while she was in her car. I can't remember where she was. She might have been traveling still. I can't remember.

But anyway, yeah, that'd be interesting to know, right? Were there a bunch of people caught unaware in their cars and did it cause? Like I said, I was in a Coles buying basketball shorts. And when that went off, I almost bought a medium. Or you can't have that. Or was anybody, like, in the middle of, like, brain surgery and... I hope you don't have your phone on you when you're doing... Well, the Amish, it wasn't supposed to have a phone either.

Oh, good point. Yeah, my wife, Stephanie, she's in the pharmacy. They have, like, a no-phone policy in the pharmacy, and everybody's phones went off during that, and she just put her hands on her hips and looked at everybody and was like... Oh, that's awesome. Do they still call us the English? Is that a thing? The Amish refer to all non-Omish?

No, the Coles, checkout lady at Coles. I want to know what she called. When they open the pharmacy, that's how they open it. They yelled the British are coming. Because they always called John Book the English. And I didn't know if that was real or not, because I've never really been to an Amish community or known an Amish person. So do they, am I the English?

If they see me, they go, oh, English, or something like that. I don't know. Maybe. Well, anyway, maybe that study I'll come out later. Who knows? It almost is a great, it's a great concept for a horror movie where all, let's say it's all electronic devices, all make a horrible screeching sound all at the same time, and nobody was prepared for it.

Planes will go down. Yeah, like a post-apocalyptic movie. Everybody crashed everything. Right, exactly. I love that kind of stuff. I could tell you what caused the apocalypse is everybody was a testing of the emergency alert system. Yeah, it is basically the plot of Stephen King's cell. C-E-L-L.

It kind of is. Yeah. I love that book, but it's so dependent on 90s handsets. It's just ridiculously dependent on flip phones. But anyway. Sorry, Bobby. Let's talk about asteroid pieces and where I can find them. Yeah, so this was some big news in the past couple of weeks,

been in the big science news, is that NASA just started looking at a returned sample from the asteroid Benu, there is a, there is a mission called Osiris Rex, which stands for Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, and Security, Regolith Explorer. Wow. I would, I think it sounds like a Guardians of the Galaxy villain we haven't explored. Osiris Rex, yeah, Osirx, yeah, Osiris Rex. Oh, Osiris Rex, after Thanos, he's the worst threat. The next big bad after King.

This time, this one's really bad, this time. Wow. So it was on September 24th. So this mission was launched back in 2016. And the idea was they were going to send this probe, this explorer out to this asteroid in the asteroid belt to take a sample and return it back, a very clean, pristine sample and return it back to Earth so that it could be put in this special clean room that they're designing specifically for this at NASA to then get pristine asteroid samples to be able to study. and that finally came back. It landed in Utah, by the way, Utah Connected. Oh, hey, sweet.

Love to hear that. So, and then it was out on September 24th. There was a billion-dollar mission. Wow. That's actually kind of low compared to other mission costs, right? For something, yeah, like to get something that far out and have it come back with samples, that does seem, it does seem like, it's a good price, yeah. They bought that thing on Black Friday, basically.

I'm glad you recognize that. I thought that was that was not too high either considering what they were doing right? The asteroid belt is further out than Mars right so they were sending something all the way out there

for this always blows my mind when I think about the scope of NASA missions right they it's a little asteroid that's like a half a kilometer across or something they sent a probe out to it they orbited it and then they spent

six just six seconds drilling into it and collecting a sample and then came back. And the fact that they're able to do that is just, it blows my mind all the time. Now, the articles I'm finding on this are all talking about how it's mineral rich. Is that, did they target it for this reason? Did they think there was something in there that was like, oh, this thing's full of essential. It's all part of a big breakfast or whatever.

I don't know what's in that thing. It's all balanced breakfast. Yeah, yeah. Complete breakfast. No, the reason that they chose, the reason. The reason that the whole mission purpose was to find clues about the early conditions of our solar system. So four billion years ago, all the planets formed, all the rocky stuff in our solar system started forming, and that includes the asteroid in the asteroid belt. So lots of stuff, dust and particles started to coalesce into large objects, and the stuff that didn't end up forming in.

to planets and moons, just kind of all the leftover trash rocks got went and started floating around in this ring between Mars and Jupiter. And so the thought is like on the planets, after all that stuff formed, you've got atmospheres, you've got things smashing into it, you've got billions of years of erosion and weathering and all this stuff in various planets. You can't kind of, you can no longer tell what were the conditions. when those things formed. Also, the big planets, you know, they're all compressing on each other, and so then you have molten rock in the middle, all this kind of stuff, right?

So if you can go out to the asteroids and you can see these were also all formed at the same time as the planets, they'll give you some, a lot of information about what were things like when all the planets, when the solar system was first forming, right? And so that's what they were hoping for. They were also hoping to find clues about, like, where, they were hoping to find water on the asphalt. I thought you're going to say werewolves. I don't know why. When you said where, and then I went, what?

He's about to tell us about wherewolves. That would be really cool. Yeah. I can't argue with that. Yeah, they came from space, it turns out. Weird. That's on the mission parameters, but they weren't hoping for it. It's kind of a long shot.

But they were hoping to find water. They were expecting to find water and hoping they would because that would help give us maybe some clues about where water on earth came from. That's a big mystery still. An open question in science is how does, how does there so much water on earth? Where did it all come from? Because early in Earth's history,

it's very, it's just rocky and it's very hot. So even if water collected on Earth early on, they would have expected it would have all just evaporated and then, you know, just been pushed out into space with no atmosphere. I never thought about that. crazy. Hold on a second. I've never thought about that. All that water wouldn't have just

spontaneously poofed, right? Water doesn't work that. HTO doesn't work that way. It would have to be, oh, that's wild to think about. Yeah. So there's a lot of different theories about where water came from. But one of the big ones is that asteroids and comets hitting Earth might have ceded water on Earth. What if it was, hey, Brian, what if it's galactus pee what if he would be a lot more than that oh i see we'd have a we'd have a quantity it would be water world here is what we'd have it would be exactly yes in the urine world that's a good there aren't enough potted plants that's right that's the truth that's really interesting so so they'll be able to and this clean room the whole idea is to have

uh as little as possible contamination of any kind and not even not even not even traditional contamination. Like they don't want regular air in there. They want... They want nothing. Yeah. Just like, let's see this in its most pure form or whatever.

Things like this make me worry sometimes because they'll target the one they want to get the sample from. They get the sample. They bring it back. They land it in Utah like they seem to always do for who knows why. Probably a lot of all that space down there. I don't know. And then they pull it out and they look at it.

And I always think, what if it's just like dirt? What if it's the same as the dirt in the backyard? You know what I mean? Right, right. Like what, like if it's just like a piece of dirt. We didn't learn anything from this. Right, right. That was a dumb billion dollars anyway, you know?

That seems... Well, I mean, if it was dirt like soil from Earth, that would be very exciting because it would be very unexpected to find that on an asteroid, right? Oh, that's a good point, yeah. Yeah, anything we find is, is, it's all information. It's all data, right? Right. So that's why it's all very, very useful for us to see.

So the, the, the, they sent it up. up there. They were expecting to collect the goal was to collect 60 grams of material of loose you know pebbles and rocks and everything from this asteroid and it was

so successful that they collected 250 grams more than four times what they were hoping to get. Whoa. So much so that it actually overflowed into the way the canister is designed is there's a canister and then there's sort of like a gap between the canister and then a larger canister that holds the main canister.

And they got so much stuff that it filled up all the gap between the two canisters even. So they had a bunch of extra stuff that they were able to look at and they were able to do some like preliminary testing. They haven't, as far as I know, the last time I checked, they haven't actually opened the proper canister yet, even though it's been a couple weeks. Because they're trying to be very close, very careful and slow about it. They've shot at it with like x-rays and all these other things to see what's inside and just get a sense of what they're looking at. But they were able to do some preliminary looks at all this extra stuff that was collected on the outside. So they already have some information about what was in there or what is it going to be in there. And so they found a bunch of carbon, which is good, 5% carbon by mass.

and they did find an abundant amount of water from hydrated clays that were on this asteroid. So water and carbon together is a very strong sign that there could, so the water is great, but also that they could be looking at a source of organic compounds whenever they get into it because water and carbon are big components to all that. Because that was the other thing they were hoping to look for is see if they could find amino acids on this asteroid because again that's another big open question how amino acids are are the building blocks of proteins and um and so there's a big question of how did you know how does life how did life on earth form we can only look back so far we don't know how it began and so this could give us some

insight onto one possible way maybe with maybe not just water was seated on earth but also some of these building blocks that were used to form amino acids and proteins so like the origin of life stuff, which could be super fascinating if they can get, if they can yield some of that data. So what if, what if, what if the water situation was just taken care of by the happenstance of like, I don't know, a gigantic ice asteroid from who knows where? Usually comets. So you're thinking comets, because those are huge balls of ice. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. So enough of that hits the earth. That's a lot of water, though. Right? Like, how do you feel? Yeah. Yeah. But, certainly it's going to take a lot of it right because let's say you're you're talking about

the the very early earth it's still very hot probably much of the the the surface is still molten rock right yeah um and so if a bit even a big comet hits that and is a is mostly water ice let's say just hypothetically sure water ice as they say in uh philadelphia yeah water ice Yeah. They're going to, all of that may evaporate and everything, but a lot of that is going to just evaporate off and go out into space again. Oh, I see what you're saying. So you're still going to need a lot of them because you're going to need enough for that too. And that's why some people think that it's not likely that that happened.

There's other theories about the water actually being contained in the minerals and rocks of the earth and just slowly over time, precipitated out slowly upward and everything. Do you, uh, different theories? slightly, it's actually connected what I wanted to send you and I'll still send it. But do you follow Brian Cox at all, not the actor, but the astrophysicist guy? I watch a lot of his stuff and read a lot of his stuff. I don't follow him closely though. Okay. Super interesting dude, obviously. Very charismatic he's really great. He's really great. I like him a lot. Yeah. He has, there's a chunk of audio I need to send you where someone asks him what his biggest fear is about the universe. And his answer is both poignant, but

just opened a whole bag of chips for me, like brain chips. Yeah, I'll send it. It's too hard to explain here, so I'm pulling a Johnson here a little bit, but I'll send you this audio or this video I found, and you can hear it, and we can just maybe have a little offline discussion of it because it really broke my brain. It made me go, oh my gosh, he's right. Holy shit.

Anyway, so there's that's a fun. More than scent, scent, scent, and scent. Yeah, sent, scent and scent, which really broke my brain. I'm just, I just repaired all that. Now I got this new break. Yeah, right. That was the new breakage. It sucks, man.

Anyway, well, that's fascinating. Yeah. More on that from your awesome podcast. Tell people where they can get it and why they should listen. Yeah, we actually did talk a lot about this specifically thing on just two episodes ago. And Mora covered it and went into much more detail about asteroids and comets and this mission in particular. That's on all around science is the podcast. And you can, we talk all about science news and just other stuff going on in science.

We just had an interview with an anthrozoologist who taught us what anthrozoology even is. Yeah. Good place to start. I don't know what that even is. Never heard of that. It's about the interaction between the study of the interaction between humans and animals. Oh, okay. And stuff like that.

All right. Which we have a long history with animals. Yeah. We love our animals, where some of us go as far as a furry lifestyle, and that's fine. That's great. Nothing wrong with that at all. You're super into it. One quick kind of related science question.

Did you get a chance to get outside and watch the eclipse this weekend? It was too cloudy here. Oh, no. Yeah, we got a decent shot at it here, and they did that whole reflective thing through trees where the light through the trees would cast little moons on the ground. Oh, yeah, that's really cool. Yeah, it's awesome. Yeah, because I got to see that when the full solar eclipse

happened a few years ago that the center of that the center of totality like smack dab in the center of totality passed right over our house. So we were able to see it without even having to go anywhere.

It was amazing and yeah, we got to see what you were talking about. Scott, little crescents all over the ground. It's all the pinhole cameras basically. Yeah, it was really, it's something to see if you ever got to check. off and had a something I never had before, a mochi donut. There's a new place in Denver that makes mochi donuts and had some Vietnamese coffee and

a mochi donut and sat there with my astro astronomers. No, it's the Denver Astronomy Association glasses looking up at the eclipse. Wow. That's cool. You're already better than a certain elected official we had a couple of years ago. Hey, Melania, why don't you look up there? Yeah, right sure. they said don't look at it

he immediately went immediately yeah right there yeah weirdo well Bobby it's always a grand time

hanging with you and we look forward to this when this happens every time anything else you want to mention uh

nope I've just go all around science all around science you bastards go get it today Bobby Frankenberger everybody

go check him out and we'll see you next time by now okay What happened there? Oh, it works. Okay. Brian, we, uh, we're near the end of the show here.

Oh, look at this, Brian. You want to see some burgers? Oh, can you not hear me? Why? Oh, did I quit? Did I quit the call? Oh, weird. Usually you catch it and, uh, it's like I'll pick up on it.

Then I see you still talking me like, hmm, nope, can't hear you. That was, yeah, I'm glad you pointed the score. I'm glad would you be pointed because I thought for real I was all good. That was very strange. I found something I want. I'm going to just share it with you real quick. I'm going to buy this because I'm an idiot. So I found this on Amazon.

There's your link. Chat. Look at this. Oh, geez, Louise. I'm buying these fake burgers. You get two of them. Look at these things. Oh, hilarious.

Look at that. Are they full size? Yeah, they're full size. These are meant for like kitchens and things where people are showing. off whatever they make or whatever. There's a real range of realism versus cartoony looking fake food. I don't want any of the cartoony stuff. I want the realistic stuff.

And I'm going to buy these burgers. In photos, these look absolutely realistic. Don't they? I mean, it might be the reviews are good. Well, there's only one rating. Yeah, the review is good. The review is good. The review is five stars. Yes, exactly. Yeah, make sure, I mean, you've got to have some fun

with Van with this thing. Oh, hell yeah, dude. That's half the half the good time to have, right? It's just full little kids. Let's see. Oh, look at all these donuts and cupcakes. Oh, they got all kinds of crap too, right? Fries. That doesn't look like a hot, not real hot dog, though. That's kind of boring. Let's see. No, but these donuts and cupcakes and muffins look pretty good. Yeah, I'm, I wonder, Etsy probably free delivery today. So for 23 bucks,

I could have these 16-piece fake food, realistic, artificial toy donuts, cupcake, fake-slice cake, artificial simulation, macaron, artificial food, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, how big are these things? I know, right? That's the thing. The fake donuts measure five centimeters, two inches in diameter. So they're also way miniaturized fake donuts, cakes, macaroons. Yeah, yeah, you're right about that. Oh, my gosh, I got to do something with these.

I like this. The description. The fake donuts measure five centimeters two inch in diameter. The artificial cupcakes are about five by six centimeters. The fake cake slashes measures seven centimeters. And the fake macaron is five centimeters. Eye catching and can be noticed easily. Thanks goodness you can notice them easily.

That's how you know there's a dude in China working on the copy. That's how you know. That's right. Exactly. Well, all right then. That was a good time. Right there. Let's get out of here. Although we do have a quick thing. You know the Versalis, Versailles, Versilis, whatever we are. Versailles. Versailles versus Versailles. All that stuff. Well, we have some confirmation from some locals. I got 15 calls about this. I'm only playing one. Okay. All right. So here's the one. Brian, this is Harold from Kentucky. You're actually right. It's Versailles, Kentucky. It's the county seat of Woodford County, Kentucky, where Woodford Reserve is made, which is north of that.

Louisville is an interesting concept where you are in greater Louisville. You may hear it pronounce Louisville, which is more the common way of saying it, or Louisville, or Louisville. Ah, Louisville is not that common. But you can almost tell where somebody lives in the city by how they pronounce it. Anyway, enjoy the show, but I was just yelling at my phone a second ago, so I thought I would call. That's why I gave it to him because he apparently yelled at his call his wife. phone and I felt bad. So I was like, oh, well, plus I always like the calls. Yeah, Brian is right about that. I know, right? Brian right are good calls. I love them where our biases are

confirmed. So thank you for that, everybody. So there we go. And yeah, you know, the whole Louisville, Louisville, because you can't call the baseball bat, I don't think you could seriously call it a Louville slugger. You have to say a Louisville slugger. Louisville. Yeah, right? I didn't think of that one. You have to call that a Louisville slugger. You don't call it a lovel slugger. Yeah. We also got some stuff from Arkansas folks who are like, hello, we look like Arkansas and we say Arkansas for no reason. I'm like, yeah, you guys are part of the problem. True. Well done. All right. That's it for that later today. So some good news, I guess. I don't know what this is. But I get a lot of different developers who send me

review codes for brand new games. And they're like, hey, you should play this for us. and do you want this? And I'm like, yeah, sure. And then I'll oftentimes play this stuff and I'll talk about it on core, but they don't get a lot of exposure for it. So I'm going to start with a regular Frog Pants Play stream every Monday. And I'm doing it later in the day so that people who are working and stuff can come watch.

So starting today from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Mountain time at FrogPants.tv, I will start doing FrogPants plays again. And I'll be doing it every Monday with, you know, holidays. exceptions or whatever. So that's starting today and come around today at 5.30, or excuse me, at 6 p.m. and I will play games. I don't know which ones I'm doing yet. I got a huge list backlog of these Indies and stuff people send me, chore core games, all kinds of crap.

I'll pick a couple of them. We'll spend a couple hours with it and spend some time with you folks. So if you want to come watch live and check these games out, you can. That'll start today and happen every Monday. FrogPants Play, as we call it, at FrogPants. dot TV 6 p.m. 8 p.m. Mountain Time right here. So come check it out. Cool.

You know, I might do, before that, I might do some assembly. The last Iron Man pieces to make this thing do the superhero landing pose basically. Nice. That's all you have left, eh? That's only... It's all I have left. Yeah, so right now he just stands up, right now he's standing up

and waving, but I want to have... I really want to have him up on the shelf behind me. And he's too tall to put up right, but if I have him doing the superhero landing pose, and I think he can fit up there. He might be too, you know, that back leg bent might be too deep to fit on that bookcase. That looked really cool, though. Sign me up for this of an inevitable future.

Sounds great. Oh, right there, yeah. Yeah, it'll work right there. They'll still totally show up there. Yep. What album do we have out today? What's the album next to you? It's Johnny Cash live at San Quentin, a used copy that I got that is signed.

By Johnny Cash? No, by somebody named Melanie. Lily. Oh. She signed it, which is really nice of her. I don't know. Weird. I don't think she was a resident of San Quentin.

I think she was the previous owner of this album that I got at a thrift store. I love you. You got a signed album of Johnny Cash's. You walked out. It was perfectly set up, too. Like, signed copy. Ooh, by Johnny Cash? Nope.

By the previous owner of the album. It's like getting a book where it's like, dear Sally, we hope you enjoy the book. And it's like, look at this. autographed by Sally, an owner, previous owner of the book. Actually, funny you bring that up. So Chris Brown, massive fan of Power Pop like The Kinks, Joe Jackson, Nick Lowe. And I found in a used bookstore, God, I might get this wrong. I think it was Nick Lowe's autobiography.

And it was, I popped it open, I'm looking at it, and I opened up the very first page, and it's been given as a gift already. And it said, Dear Tom, I hope you enjoy this. I know you're a big fan of his music, and I know you really want to know behind the scene stories of all of his songs, and so I really hope you enjoy this, signed, Melissa.

So I bought the book for Chris Brown, and then I wrote underneath that inscription, I said, Dear Chris Brown, I hope you like this book better than Tom did, signed Brian. well clearly that guy didn't like it along he didn't like it enough to keep it no he liked it enough to sell it the first chance he got to us the second in charles that's great that's a great gift i love that yes i mean it's literally a real gift because you bought it but you know it's a real gift right exactly but it's a but you know it worked perfectly as both a thing that i know he likes and as a way to to have some snarky fun at tom's expense absolutely fantastic i love that all right that's it for the show we're done i would like to tell people to go to patreon.com slash tms i'd like to tell you no i would like to tell you we want you to go there okay we do

However, this is the one covered by a little band that you might hear when you're, uh, oh, it's a French movie. And not a, not a German movie. Okay.
