If I could take a trip to Mars with three people, it would be clever pun, Tom Sherwood, and strange one.
Why? Because they support the TMS Patreon at patreon.com slash TMS.
Coming up on the morning stream, somewhere over the lemon.
Numondamek.
Doot do do to do do do.
Pumba of the planet of the Crystal Empire Richards.
Richard's skull.
Leg salad sandwich.
Barometric pressure pushing down on me, pushing down on you.
In Olive Garden, no one can hear you.
your family. They bury the cannibalism. Two girls, one cup, zero plot. You'll get no issues,
no paws, and no lieutenant y'ar! Soap and slide. Fly around the cheese. Your body is a barometer.
The police are calling for Brian. Cottle your damn eggs with Bobby and more on this episode of
the morning stream. Now this one's old and kind of ropey. My wife would not enjoy it. Do you wish you
were impervious to pain too? You realize you could burn your fingers off without even noticing,
Right. The morning stream. Ah, that's the level of stupid we're looking for.
Hello, everybody. Welcome to TMS. It is Monday, March 25th, 2024. I'm Scott Johnson. That's Brian Abbott.
Hello. How are you? Good morning. I'm all right.
good good morning it's uh monday it's wet outside cold
it's like 30 where you're at yeah a little warmer 18 18 here snow falling but
nothing like the blizzard nothing like the big snow dump we had a couple weeks ago so
manageable more manageable amount of snow on the ground also i keep having this thing where i i am
i'm almost 100% sure it's BS but so somebody out there you know what let's have
Tollbert or some doctor chime in on this.
Okay.
I get the worst headaches before a storm.
Like they're almost migraine level, not quite.
I don't want to put them in that category.
But I'll get like a headache and then bam, a storm comes and it goes away.
It just dissipates as soon as it hits.
Oh, really?
Okay.
So I get them before.
And I usually just take aspirin as soon as I get them.
So I don't know if they'd go away on their own as soon as the storm comes.
But there's something about pressure.
Like you get the, it's pressure.
the front of high pressure
before a storm comes in that
Barometric pressure
Is that what it is?
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
Your body is a barometer, says, chat.
I mean, look, it may be...
Your body's a barometer.
My favorite John Mayer's song.
I know.
It's less sexy than the other one that made it to the radio.
And now I want to do the whole song.
Yeah, please do.
But yeah, no, it's not like sinus stuff.
It's like, I don't know.
It's like this hideous, like, up here front thing.
And then as soon as it hits, like the storm, and it's not that much long, it's not that much before the storm.
It's like maybe a couple hours before the storm hits.
And then as soon as the sky's open and the rain, the snow, the sleet, whatever it is that falls, I go, ah, like it leaves.
And then it breaks.
Wow.
Interesting.
It's very weird.
So it's probably different for everybody.
Everybody has their own thing.
Some people get that, what is it the, like a arthritis thing?
Are they feeling their knee or something?
Yeah, old injuries and stuff.
stuff. Yeah. Yeah. The shoulder, this shoulder that I slammed into those kids when I was 14 on the, on the tube, snow tubing. That thing acts up a little bit when there's a storm. Actually, it's the arm that's acting up in general. It's a piece of shit arm right now. But I think, I swear, I'm paying for an accident that happened when I was 14. The year was 1984. And I slid backwards and smacked a kid who's probably in his 60s now.
Right. Coming down the hill. And it still bugs me when, when storm stuff.
kicks in. I know. It's lame.
Weird how that stuff
stays with you. Sticks with you forever.
Well, how'd your date night go? That probably
stuck with you. How to go? It stuck with me, Scott.
It was my turn to choose
for Tina. We had mystery date.
And about a month
ago, I heard that choir, choir,
choir, choir was coming to Denver.
Now, if you're not familiar with, choir, choir, choir,
their exclamation point. So really it's
choir, choir, choir, choir, choir.
Oh, wow.
They are a
comedy and music duo.
that from Toronto usually they used to just perform in Toronto I think and now they
they go on the road all the time now and they take a an audience full of people
and lead them through singing and you go to this thing and you are going to sing
no one's going to hear you except maybe the people just immediately around you
because you're all singing at the same time and you're all singing together right but
but you the audience is the choir so they you know they they lead you in song and for some of their
songs they actually break the audience up into parts and give each part different different things
to sing either back patter or harmonization or things like that and I give you a link
it was a special Abba night Tina's a big Abba fan so it was a special Abba night so it was
all Abba songs.
Fortunately, they didn't do that weird
song about the guy who
finds a personal ad and hires a
woman and her daughter to have sex, but
it was more of the hits,
more of the Aba Gold.
Sure. The Aba Dregs.
Sure.
And so you can find that
Mamma Mia clip that I sent you and just go, you know,
a few seconds into it
and play a little bit of that.
Did you put in the TMS group? Where did you send this?
No, I put it in the, yeah, it's in the TMS.
it's above my stupid it's above blaze your glory yeah and the old men and uh ghostbusters hold on
here we go okay i found it i'm gonna play a little of this see if we can't get in trouble on
youtube here we go oh yeah well i mean it's it's all right probably not because this is a bunch of people
sing in an aba song it's not it's not aba that's true but when you sing on film sac i get i get dinged
every time every well because i use a karaoke track oh is that why probably yeah because the
The karaoke track is probably
really similar
to the original
All right, here we go.
It's a lot of this being
on the song ever done to this point.
A fun crowd.
Look at that crowd.
With the huge crowd.
Way bigger crowd than we had.
We had a church,
really cool.
Methodist church in town.
This is cool.
Sounds like,
I get you by split ends.
Oh my gosh.
Cannot believe they get people to do this.
This is amazing.
It's amazing.
Like, that's hard.
That's hard to do.
It's not.
It really isn't.
Like, when you're sitting in this group right over here and all you're being told to do is go,
uh, uh, uh, uh,
ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Yeah.
And then, uh, and then you got to kind of know where your note is, but you've got a bunch
of people around you who, who kind of maybe got it themselves.
They kind of guide you into that note when you're looking for the harmonization and stuff.
Wow.
All right.
I've seen some, my mom is a choir director and she struggled to get people to get their shit right.
So I'm just impressed the crowd of strangers can just get it.
I mean, that's their whole vibe, I guess.
That's the whole thing.
That's the whole draw is they were able to get the audience to do this stuff.
But that's awesome.
It was a lot of fun.
It was an hour and a half.
We did, you know, we spent maybe 20 minutes on Mamma Mia, like the setup and then the final, the final.
everybody's singing along with it.
These guys are so hilarious the whole time.
And so we're doing Dancing Queen and Fernando and SOS.
That was another one where they broke the audience up into parts and gave each group a different part.
It was a lot of fun.
And the only music backing is just guitar guy.
It's just the dude in the front with the guitar.
Wow.
Wow.
That's amazing.
And yeah.
And it's like they're really funny, genuinely funny.
funny, um, uh, uh, genuinely funny, uh, people. And so doing, you know, when they're setting up
and saying, okay, you guys are going to be doing the harmony on this one, you're going to be
going up here. And then he says, just you and invariably somebody on the other side will start
singing regardless. So they'll, you know, they'll joke around with that guy and then they'll
come back to the part of the audience that's doing harmonies and stuff like that. It's, it's, it's,
it's a blast. This is cool. Yeah, they're, they got a website. It's just choir, choir, choir, choir,
And you can go check it out, see where they're coming on tour.
List their locations.
So if you, Randy heard about this and immediately said, I'm taking, I'm taking SJ to this.
I'm moving catwoman to see this time.
That's right.
Exactly.
That's great.
So left that.
We had a really good dinner.
Well, found this new place called Chopstickers, which is a, they do Vietnamese like soup and Dan Dan.
um bow like really good soft pork belly bow buns and soup dumplings we we you know basically picked
everything that uh that sounded so good and then just had this big plate of stuff in front
of us that we were that we're enjoying that sounds fantastic really cool yeah i would eat that
awesome um and then we uh drove home and uh as we're driving uh we're stopped at a at a red light
and we're just chit-chatting, and all of a sudden, a car flies through the red light between me and the guy in the car in the lane next to us.
So two lanes, two cars, and somebody in a white Dodge Charger flies through between us and goes through the red light.
Like, oh, my God, how do you not hit somebody crossing the other way?
It was late.
There wasn't a lot of traffic, so thank God for that.
And then, you know, we're both like, God, you know, people.
A-holes like that, driving around and doing that shit.
Oh, my God.
And then we come around the corner and we see, oh, crap.
He slammed into a guardrail.
Like, he did not see that sharp turn to get onto the highway.
And look at that front-end chat.
Just wrecked his.
Yeah, I re-showed it in slow-mo, zoomed up.
Look at that.
That is so munched.
He got munched.
He really got munched.
So I, you know, we pulled over.
I immediately called 911, said, hey, here's where we're at.
There's an accident on the on-ramp to northbound I-25, a 20th street, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And they're asking all these questions like, all right, you know, are you, did you get hit?
He's like, no, I don't know how we didn't get hit because he flew right by me, you know,
and went through the red light, and I don't know how he didn't hit my car or touch my car.
Got to be like an inch on each side.
This thing is so close when I comes there.
It was so, so close.
And so then I said, oh, by the way, I have a dash cam.
I'm sure recorded the whole thing, want the footage.
And they're like, oh, yeah, yeah, if you've got that, awesome.
Yeah, we'll text you a link and you can upload your dash cam footage.
Meanwhile, while I'm talking to 911, a couple people had parked on the other side of the on-ramp
and we're getting out to check on the driver.
So, you know, so I didn't have to try and get out of the car risk getting my
door ripped off or getting hit by other people who are getting onto the highway, thank goodness.
Yeah, it's a tight little, so I just showed the video of the chat, but basically, for those at home listening, it looks like that turn has two very slight shoulders, but if there's a car on one shoulder all wrecked and sitting there, and then you guys are parked there, and then you guys are parked there. Nobody on this side is going to know that. They're going to come.
Right. They might see the wreck, but they're not going to see you. Yeah, they may see the aftermath, but they're not going to see Brian Ibit and his door open.
Right. Exactly. Even if they round the corner where they could see me, their eyes aren't going to be on me. They're going to be on the pile of charger that is on the left side of their view.
We don't like to stereotype here on the show, but why is it always chargers? What's the deal?
You know what I mean? Chargers are Mustang. Is it always chargers? I didn't know that.
I feel like everybody who cuts me off in traffic, I feel like is in something like a charger, if not a charger.
Oh, here in Colorado, it is pickup trucks.
It is the bigger the pickup truck, the tinier, the little pee-pee of the driver that's driving it, most likely.
But, yeah, it is aggressive, horrendous, like, pickup truck drivers who cut us off all the time.
Yeah.
Well, I'm glad, even the main thing, obviously, is that you didn't get hit and that's good.
We don't want that.
Yeah, and hopefully the, you know, Dr. Err, sorry, Dirtbox finger says right.
Hopefully the driver was okay, and it's just an expensive, painful lesson.
Exactly.
That's what you hope for is that, well, I hope you've learned something about this crap.
And I hope other people who drive by also learn something if they're aggressive drivers themselves.
Those people are saying post on Reddit.
Where should I, you guys have to let me know where to post this thing on Reddit.
There's a whole group in there for Near Miss Car Stuff.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
I follow it.
I can't remember the name.
though um let's see if i can find it real quick and i can tell you because it's a great place for
this sort of thing and this would fit right in i actually even did an edited version of the video
that shortens the light because your lights really long so if you want to put that up there you
could do that um but let's see it's called hopefully you take off all the stuff on like there's a lot
of time on the end too that uh yeah i cut all that out just to trim it um let's see yeah post uh put
that one in uh in our our covers folder our music folder
and I'll put that up there.
What is the name of this?
Is it just drivers?
Oh, idiots and cars, says...
That's it.
That's it.
Idiots and cars.
Fantastic thread or Reddit, subreddit.
I feel like it's going to trigger me
with all the idiots and cars
that I see regularly when I'm lifting.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, no, I have pretty much guarantee, right?
Now you're going to notice it.
Okay, I'm putting a copy in our thing
and you can do that.
It's called ibitnearmist.m.m.p.
Nice. Excellent.
anyway um yeah i'm glad you're you know i'm a i'm glad you didn't get hit b it sounds like the driver
probably okay although who knows what he was maybe he was drinking my guess is he was just being an
ass if i had to guess yeah that's that's probably typical and i think if you know if he had an airbag
in there that thing was modern enough that has to have an airbag then he was i'm sure he was fine but
yeah feels more likely that uh if he was drinking it might be more swervy and i don't know
erratic not putting the foot pedal to the metal i don't know how that stuff works
anyway uh well i'm glad you're good
it's crazy yeah thanks if you guys want to see or here i'll give you all the link uh if you want to
see this again it's your own leisure in the chat you can there's the youtube link so just a
private or an unlisted video oh cool okay um all right well that's awesome uh let's see where we
are here oh uh we got a uh a thing about the uh the live tv thing you know doing antennas versus you
know, services or whatever.
You guys do Hulu TV, I think, or something like that you're saying?
Yeah, we do Hulu live to get the combo of Disney Plus and ESPN.
We don't care about ESPN, but it's included as part of this package deal.
He's going to say, it's there if you want it, I suppose.
Well, this guy wrote in, didn't give a name, but he says if you have the Paramount Plus app,
you can watch live CBS shows.
We have an antenna that sits in a window, and we get all the terrestrial signals clear and easy.
Um, yeah, the Paramount Plus app thing, that's why we got the Super Bowl here.
That was a live event.
And, um, it is true.
I can go in there and see live shit all the time, but it's only, it's only CBS stuff.
So, yeah, as long as I was limited to CBS, I could see how that might be a go to for me,
but I don't spend really much time on CBS.
There's nothing on there for me, really.
There's more on Paramount, just proper streaming than there is on the, the network channel.
So, um, so I don't know.
Have you used it for that before?
Have you ever tried that?
Yeah, there's, it's funny because that's where stuff, let's see, what is it?
Is it maybe Survivor or Big Brother or something?
I watched an episode using the actual, using the actual Paramount Plus app.
And it was live, like a live episode?
And it was live, it was being live.
Yeah, it was aired live.
Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, we get that with Hulu, so there's not much of a reason for me to try it in Paramount.
well there you go
thank you for that
8014710462
if you'd like to send in your own
if you don't have terrestrial
if you don't have a live service
that's a really good way to do it
yeah and this guy's got both
he's doing the antenna thing
and I don't know
I've been tempted
yeah I had to buy a tub
it doesn't sound like you
you know I mean you get your
you do
how do you get your news
like
I don't
I stay I you know
if I get it at all
I get it on the internet
I don't care about televised stuff
at all so I don't watch it
I haven't seen like a regular news
and probably, oh gosh, more than a decade.
It's easily been that long, almost as long as this show is.
We're Lesterholt folks in this household.
Lesterhold every night.
That's good.
He's your friend.
He's there to help you.
Yes, absolutely.
He has no lips.
Moving on.

Hey, Dunaway, what are you doing, man?
Oh, hi, Scott and Brian.

Getting ready to bring you on and have a little half-asses.
Right.
That's what we're doing.
Oh, fine.
Oh, that's great.
Yeah.
Well, let's get into it.
I'm excited.
Let's get into it.
What are we making YouTube content?
Yeah, we're making YouTube content.
Smash those subscribe.
Did you bring your subscribe button that we can smash as we go on here?
Is that the plan?
I did.
It's in my right podcast.
I can reach in there.
Go ahead.
I can't make that joke.
I could tell Brian's having a very intense conversation with somebody.
I don't know who it is, but whoever you are for the last five minutes.
Don't mind me.
Sorry.
I've been watching that quiet on the set thing on HBO Max, you know, the Nickelodeon.
Oh, yeah.
Boy.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yes.
Somebody, one of the four of us, we'll be recommending that this week.
So we'll talk more about it.
But I hear it some heavy stuff.
It starts off in one direction.
Let's just say it veers.
There's only like three episodes or something.
So at first you're like, oh, this is a whole season of stuff.
They're really going to dig into it.
And they did.
But, you know, I think it's like three episodes or something like that.
I enjoyed it.
Really open my eyes to some of the things that were going on.
They already kind of suspected.
Do they get into the Drake?
Do they get into the Drake Bell stuff?
The, um, his whole thing.
Yeah.
Spoiler.
They do talk some about that.
Yes.
Yeah.
So it's not a spoiler, is it?
Is that a spoiler?
Did they find out that Nickelodeon says there were actually things you could do on
television? Was that a big expose? No, no, it's called things you shouldn't do on television now.
You shouldn't. Yeah. We did and you shouldn't. Well, all right then. I, look, I want to see that,
but I also am a little wary because I don't know if I'm in the mood. It's an emotional ride,
especially as a parent. Yeah. But, yeah. Well, all right. You know what? I may see it just to, I don't
know. Well, you know what? Let's see what that recommendal is Wednesday. Then I'll make my call.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. And luckily, because it's like,
oh no I love the Nickelodeon shows I don't want to screw it up for myself but it's really
specifically some shows even though Nickelodeon is a company is a big old dick company just like
all a company say what you're going to do it's too big to be nice right yes yeah well and you're
too big to fail but too big to be nice yeah too big to be nice jackasses jerks especially stuff
when it has like kind of meteoric success and things kind of exploded for them in the 90s
and it just feels like the quicker you get successful
and the money comes rolling in,
the more ethically dubious things can get.
People get...
Money.
Money, baby.
The dollar sign seemed to block their view
of any sort of morals or...
I get it.
This is what happened at Blizzard.
This happened at Blizzard.
It was basically just insane amount of growth
over a very short amount of time.
And they just lost control of each other.
And then all that harassment and bullshit happened
and just right under everyone's nose.
But it didn't matter because they were just raking in the cash, you know.
Yeah, you know, we talk about this from time to time.
It's like, I'm always curious about individuals I see who go into a job.
And there's one person then comes out on the other side as another person.
And I go, oh, sometimes you got to ask, is it the person or is the job?
And sometimes you got to ask, hey, you should have been a person before the job.
Yeah, it's just like that, man.
Money complicates everything.
We don't even need any.
But please subscribe to our.
patrons now so that we can
please see if we can
if you can change us by subscribing to
our patrons and give us
lots of money there you go
all right we're going to play a game and you're here to
compete I think you lost last week so
no pressure but you guys is that how
you remember it that's how I remember it
that's my memory I'm sticking with it
because I'm pretty sure that's what happened but I could be wrong
I can't wait I can't wait
for my uh Macs special
where I talk about how Scott always was gaslighting
me and stuff it's great
document all this stuff.
What are you going to call it?
What do you want to name your documentary?
Shut the hell up on the set.
Red light, then on their life.
Let's do it.
Let's do it.
Nice.
Love it.
I can picture the cover now.
I subscribe to your newsletter.
All right, well, let's do this thing.
Brian David, explain these rules and who might win what.
That's right.
Welcome to the morning.
Half-Ass is a trivia game where I'm actually going to be giving you the answers.
I'll give Scott and Brian a category and six possible answers.
Three of which are correct.
And three of them like,
I don't know what happened.
The kids on Full House are totally wrong and incorrect.
I don't know if they're mentioned in this thing.
Depending on how confident they feel with the category,
they can provide one, two, or three guesses.
But if they get any of those guesses wrong,
they get zero points for that round.
Get one right, gets you a point.
Two right gets you three points.
Three right gets you five points total.
Play with the most points after three rounds.
Win's the prize for their contestant.
Wait a minute.
Contestants.
Oh, yeah.
I've got some pulled from members of the tadpool
that aren't able to be here live.
Scott, you're going to be playing for Borin in Canada.
Nice.
Not boring.
I don't even know where in Canada he is, but he's in Canada, somewhere in that entire country.
And Brian, you're playing for Colby in Kansas City.
Nice.
Colby from Kansas.
I like Kobe from Kansas City.
Well, he's from Missouri.
Yeah.
Kansas City's in Missouri for those who are confused.
Which sounds like Brian Dunaway might be confused.
Well, partially.
Wow.
Is your name Dan Snyder?
No, it's a, you may give you a back rub on that?
It is kind of half and half, right?
Isn't it sort of split?
Yeah, there's parts of kids.
I think most of it, like 90% of it or a large portion of it is in Missouri, but I think
there's a little bit of Kansas City that's in Kansas.
So who gets to claim the chiefs?
Does it, is it 100% purely Missouri?
Kansas City gets to claim the Chiefs.
Right.
But which state gets to say it's our thing?
Missouri.
Missouri does.
All right.
That's what I thought.
All right.
Cool.
By the way, by the way, I just want to say this right now before anybody runs off and
starts a blog.
Scott is the nicest person I've ever worked with.
He's been nothing but professional.
What did I say?
Did I say something rude?
What did I say?
No, no, no.
You just, you got people, you know, people get upset.
I don't understand.
All I said was.
I shouldn't be joking about that kind of stuff.
I apologize.
I'm the jerk.
We anytime, it's so true, Scott,
anytime I give you any flack on the show,
I get emails and messages on Discord.
You are so mean to Scott, Brian.
Why do you need to stop that?
Why don't she go jump off a cliff and all that and all that?
Ratsenberger?
All right.
Yeah, they're all signed.
No, they're all signed by a Frankenberger, weirdly enough.
Oh, weird.
Might have a little pattern going there.
Hmm.
That's right.
They all have the same name.
Signed your mom.
Really?
Okay.
Anyway, let's get to our first set of answers here.
Your category, oh, this will be easy one for you.
Queens of Egypt.
Queens of Egypt.
Okay.
Right off the tip of your time.
I took this in college, so this should be easy.
We all know the monomonic.
The monomonic.
Nomonic.
We all know all to know the, she's lilies, the mnemonic for knowing all the queens of Egypt.
Your choices are.
Arinae, Magda, Sobekenefereu.
Sure.
Hetchisput, nefertari and Saidea.
And thank you.
I will not repeat those.
Oh my gosh.
That first one feels like bait, Ariana.
She's a grande.
Grande.
Boy, I'm going conservative here because I don't know.
We'll do two.
That's all.
I don't know.
My history.
Man, I love ancient freaking stuff like this, but I don't know anyone's names.
I don't remember this stuff.
I know.
You and me both.
All right, let's get to the answers.
By the way, when I did this solo, before I looked at the answers,
I got one right.
I didn't know this.
I didn't know, like, you go in and you try these out?
I play every, every card before I put it in here.
I try it myself.
As I'm putting it in, I type all the answers, then I make my guess, and then I select,
then I do the code that says which answers are right.
Now I feel a little bad about always, you know, being mad, but you give me these hard-ass questions.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
No, I wouldn't put you through anything that I wouldn't put myself through as well, Brian.
It's the code.
It's the brain code.
You're, let's see, both of you
settled on Magda.
I'll just tell you right off the bat.
Nope, Magda's not.
But your other choices
each were correct.
Hatchezput and Nefertari.
Hatchypiliput.
So Magda is from the Disney movie,
isn't she?
And we mixed her up.
She's a Diablo boss, as are Arnais and Saidaia.
Oh, I should have known that.
Sidaia, that definitely sounds like a.
Those other three that aren't actual Egyptian queens
are Diablo bosses.
Who was the
who was the girl in
Hercules? She sounded so familiar to this.
Hercules, Hercules.
Magda, Magnaaria.
Magna, Magna,
Magna, shit.
Carter. I don't know.
I can't remember her name. So I will
not worry about it, but I swear it was something like that.
Anyway. Oh, Magara.
Magera. Magera was her name.
That's it.
Magera, okay. Oops.
All right, that's not her.
no worries all right well that was a
let's call that a warm up shall we let's go
to question two and
if you've seen the Wizard of Oz you
might know this one
lyrics words contained in the lyrics
to somewhere over the rainbow
your choices are which
lemon clouds storm
lullaby and through
I'm going to give you five seconds
before I uh
shut up shut up you can't talk
halfway through my singing and give me five
I definitely can because if you
I don't want you to sing the
whole thing.
Two and two.
I'm doing two.
Yeah, I'm doing two as well. Fine.
You didn't give me a chance to sing all of it.
That's bullshit.
Did you also not give yourself time to sing it when you did the card?
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Yeah, I'm going to shut up.
Yeah, that's right.
You guys both locked in.
Clouds is correct.
Yeah, you guys both locked in on clouds.
And Lullaby, Brian, you got Lullaby through, however is not.
The other one is lemon, like the end up.
Like lemon drops away.
Lemon drops, yes.
Chimney top.
I would have got there.
Yeah.
Uh, lemon, uh, lullaby and clouds.
Put you ahead by three, you dirty bastard.
You dirty, dirty, dirty, boy.
Three, nothing with Brian.
We got one more here.
So let's, uh, oops.
And some, I'm getting called.
I have the Wizard of Oz on the final.
It's one of those with the paint on the front of it where it's got Dorothy and it spins
around and it's like,
Oh, it looks like she's getting...
Hold on.
Do you get a call from the cops?
You should answer that.
I did.
I did.
But they're trying to get me to fill out their survey.
Oh.
I've gotten two texts from them saying, how did we do?
Please fill out the survey.
And I'm going to do it later.
But, but...
Don't wait too long.
You say my Oreo Blizzard was a little melty, tell them that.
Just confuse them with, like, a restaurant.
I love it.
Okay.
Nice.
All right.
So, Brian, going into a round through
with three points. Scott with zero. Let's get to the question number three.
World record holders weighing over one ton. So which of these world record holders weigh more than a ton? Your choices are the heaviest hockey stick, the heaviest bicycle, the heaviest tortoise, the heaviest squash, the heaviest Caesar salad, and the heaviest bar of soap. Which three of these things weigh more than a ton?
I'm going with density here. Probably I'm wrong.
but I'm going to try it.
You're my density.
I heard the same.
I thought the same thing.
It's the closest I'm going to ever get to win.
I can watch Teen Wolf this week.
I'm pretty excited.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're pretty stoked about that.
You're going to get your Michael J. Fox on and all that?
Michael J. Fox on.
Yeah, baby.
Yeah.
It's hairy in this one.
The Teen Wolf sequel is not great, though, if I remember right, right?
Oh, no, it's fine.
It's fine.
It's Teen Wolf.
What do you want for it?
Well, I wanted Michael J. Foxx.
Yeah, exactly.
Fox didn't come back.
Yeah, we get just Jason Bateman.
Yeah.
I wish we got Justine Bateman.
Oh, man.
That would have been a really good team wolf.
I would like that.
Yeah, no kidding.
Right.
Who says it has to be a guy?
Jeez.
Adolescent Crush 101 with her, man.
Love her.
Anyway.
All right.
Let's go down the list of these.
The heaviest bar of soap over 14 tons.
Jeez.
No way.
So do you like,
rub yourself on it
I mean I guess you couldn't pick it up right I think you just
you do it like a slip and slide you take a run and then you slide
on the bar of soap and roll yourself around
I imagine it I imagine this dial too
what kind of soap do you imagine it being
like that yellow dial shit
oh really I was picturing
like ivory like a
just your standard big white soap
really what it probably is is
like a thousand other soaps
all all gotten wet
slivers
yeah exactly and all
I'll glue together.
I threw one of those out today, a little sliver.
A little bastard, I'm not going to use you anymore.
You get that thin F off. I'm going right in the trash.
I know, exactly.
However, all the other answers you chose.
Oh, no.
Correct.
The heaviest hockey stick is over 30 tons.
What?
I call hockey on that.
I don't think somebody actually used it to play.
The heaviest Caesar salad over three tons.
The heaviest squash, wailing in at 1,486 pounds.
The heaviest bicycle, really just a little short, 1,895 pounds.
And the heaviest tortoise, not even hitting that 1,919 pounds for the heaviest tortoise.
Still pretty heavy.
Brian wins.
Yeah.
Nicely done, dude.
Holy crap.
Congratulations.
I got it.
I got to say, a little upset about the heaviest Caesar salad.
That is a lot of waste.
Did everybody get a bite?
I'm sure.
I'm sure it was like one of those big food, like one of those things.
a Caesar salad day, right?
Like some companies said,
oh, we're going to make the biggest Caesar salad.
And then everybody in the stadium
who helped assemble it gets to eat it.
God, that next day you put that thing in the refrigerator,
you're going to smell it.
Yeah.
Oh, hell yeah.
I'm trying to find an hour in that stuff.
Trying to find an image of it.
The closest I can find is one that says,
world's biggest salad.
It doesn't say if it's Caesar.
But this looks like a food waste nightmare.
There's no way that they ate all this.
Like, my gosh.
It's gigantic.
The, here it is right here.
The world's largest Caesar salad was prepared by Canara, Canirac, the Tijuana
Restaurant Tour's Chamber of Commerce, Wade, 3.287 tons.
That's not a Caesar salad.
What is that?
Is that carrots in there?
Get out of here.
And that's just regular old lettuce.
It does sound.
Enchovies, too.
No, no photos.
Does sound dense, though, doesn't it?
Like, at that weight, it's got to be more dense.
Yeah.
There's a lot of water.
here's the
I'll show
here. Here's the photo
right here.
If I can
fly,
let's see,
copy image.
All right,
I'll put it in our
Discord.
Okay,
I'll pull it up.
Oh,
wow,
this is the one.
Yeah.
Look at this guys.
She ordered
the big salad.
Yeah,
no kidding.
Holy shit.
That still doesn't
look like it weighs that much,
but I guess I don't understand
the...
Oh,
water is inside.
Yeah,
plus, yeah,
that in water is so
heavy.
Yeah,
I could get heavy.
They get the croutons in there, you think?
It's hard to see in the same.
No, croutons are light.
Yeah.
Yeah, but they probably did put them in there, yeah.
Yeah, I can't tell.
Blown my mind was when I found out we, uh, all the croutons I were eating were like just
day old bread toasted.
Like what?
Yeah.
Those are the best kind.
This delicious, this delicious piece of, uh, crouton.
Mm-hmm.
There's probably, probably a way to say or, um, to, uh, what's the word?
Well, not, not throw things out back in the day.
You were like, yeah.
Well, we got this old bread.
What do we do with it?
Well, we give it to the birds.
or you can let it dry out, put it in our salad, you know?
Unlike the heaviest Caesar salad, biggest food waste ever.
Oh, yeah, hell yeah.
And then Caesar himself would be embarrassed by this, you know?
He'd be like, oh, just stab me in the back already.
I can't deal with this, he'd say.
Then he would eat grapes.
Is that the right guy?
The Caesar salad list, by the way, almost should be its own feud, tadpully feud topic.
Here are all the things that go into Caesar salad among different recipes.
Romaine, which is standard, croutons, lemon juice, parmen,
jean cheese black pepper uh warmer coddled egg use that to make godled egg yeah not quite hard-boiled but
like um we can hold it you're like it's okay egg soft one anchovy filets and worcestershire sauce
what's it what's this here sauce and then you start getting into like all right hot mustard
olive oil red wine vinegar fresh garlic watercress iceberg lettuce cayenne pepper tobasco sugar mayonnaise and
so we're just calling anything a
Anything, exactly. Mandarin oranges, marinated arachar carts, avocado, ripe olives, bacon bits, sun-dried tomatoes, et cetera, et cetera. I'm only halfway through the list, so I'll stop there, but you can do whatever you want with a...
It's romaine, potentially some small grape tomatoes sliced up anchovy paste and some parmesan cheese.
And some croutons.
And some croutons. You don't have to have tomatoes. Tomatoes are totally optional, but I've seen it. And onions.
It's, oh, my God.
So the reason that they did this thing in Tijuana,
thank you, when the Caesar salad,
not named for Julius Caesar,
but named for the creator of the salad who was from Mexico.
Oh, I'd no idea.
That's why this thing was, the record thing was in Tijuana.
I had no idea.
I thought that was an Italian thing.
Why are Italian?
Okay, well, now I'm starting to think that,
what do you call it?
What's their names?
When you hear your family,
I can't think of their freaking name.
What's their name?
Would you hear your family?
Oh, oh, Olive Garden.
When you hear your, when you hear your family do what?
When you're here, your family do?
When you're here, your family.
But they, when you hear your family.
They, uh, they, those guys might be lying to us because they have Caesar salad and they act like they invented it over there.
Those bastards, I didn't know.
I had no idea was Mexico.
That's crazy.
I thought they invented breadsticks.
Is that not?
I don't know.
Italy?
I don't know what they did over there.
I'm looking at Coddle.
I talked about Olive Garden.
Oh, well, olive garden, listen, it's a, it's not that great.
Don't go there.
Which is better, which is better, cheese sticks from Olive Garden or Fazoles?
What do you think?
Oh, man.
What's your boat?
I think I'd go with the Olive Garden.
We don't have, we don't have the last Fazoles in town turned into an El Pollo
loco at the end of last year.
So we're done here with.
So by default, right, by default.
If I want to get either of the two, I'm only getting, uh,
Are we getting
All of that
Turns out I have had a coddled egg
I recognize this from the crews
They had a lot of these
Oh really?
Yeah
It's like a little dish
And the yolk
Yeah
It's right where you just cut the top off
And it's like that right there
And they come in these little
Yeah
Looks like you forgot to cook your egg
Is what it looks like to me
Oh right
Right right
Where they put in a ramekin
As opposed to
The shell is a soft boiled egg
Yeah
The
The ramequin is a coddled egg
Okay
And all the descriptions
Just say
she's got to be really careful while you cook it.
I mean, that's the whole thing.
You have to coddle it.
Yeah, you got to codder your eggs.
So be careful with your eggs, preserve them.
And Dunaway, you win, okay?
That's just how it's going to be.
Don't worry.
Next week, Scout, we'll say he did.
Yeah, I'll just say I won last next week.
Didn't I, did not win the last winner.
Am I making that?
You did, you did.
I know.
I'm pretty sure you did.
So, all right.
So that'll be good.
Brian, remind these fine winners what they won.
Because both of them won shit.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
That's right.
I didn't even got to that, did I?
All right.
Our winner, Colby in Kansas City, you're getting a copy of Children of Silent Town and Snowtopia ski resort builder.
Oh, build your own snowbird and have your own nerdacular there if you want.
But Boran in Canada, you're going to be getting Neo2.
I don't know if that's Nio, N-I-O-H-2.
I've never known how to say that.
It's very, very highly thought of sort of.
Souls like competitor
action RPG thing. People
like them. I've never played him, but I hear good things.
I've just never known how to say that. You're probably
right. Nio, probably.
I, you know, I pronounced it five ways. One of those ways.
Nih-ho.
Yeah. I think I like your
Dunaways is the best. Nice job.
For sure.
Congratulations to these two chuckleheads. You won no matter what we
did. And next week, we'll challenge it again.
And then, of course, Wednesday we'll give the few to try.
And, you know, that's a whole separate bag of cheese.
So come on back for that and try to win again.
Dunaway, is there anything you'd like to tell us before you go?
Are we going to play some Unreal Tournament, 2K4 tonight, Scott?
Oh, 2K4?
I don't know.
I thought it was 99 on Mondays, no?
Oh, you're right.
It is 99.
Are we going to pay some 99 tonight?
Or you got the Monday show?
I've got the Monday show, but I could probably play before Carter and I record.
I don't want you to stress yourself.
No, no, no.
I like to play.
Plus, I got to get some, I got to get my position back.
I don't like you.
You've slipped.
I have to try it with my new monitor.
I finally got my monitor set up so I won't injure myself with my wrist or my neck.
And since I'm not lifting today, I think I might be in.
That'd be great.
Yep.
430 is before?
I think so.
Isn't that what we did last time?
430, 630 your time?
430.
Correct.
Be there done away.
And also, kiss our butts.
He got in before I could stop him.
All right.
He is sneaky like that.
Unreal player.
For sure.
Let's do a quick news story and play this for its intro.
Why don't I have it handy?
Oh, I do.
Some quick news brought to you by.
The timeless story of a drug-addicted girl who takes advantage of a mentally challenged boy for three decades straight.
Can you name the movie that that is?
Dune.
Nope.
because I think everything right now for you is doing.
Okay, it's not Dune.
Definitely not Dune.
Think about a movie.
I'll give you a hint.
It was in the 90s.
A drug-indictive girl takes advantage of a mentally challenged boy for three decades straight.
Yep.
It's one of these.
Sid and Nancy was a lot briefer.
A lot more brief.
Yeah.
Oh, okay, Forrest Gump.
Yep, Forrest Gump.
All right, good point.
Yeah.
Forrest Gump.
It's alternate description.
folks alternate yes okay you you may have your own but that one's mine um all right let's talk about
this california man was arrested for allegedly taking a leg of a person killed by a train so
somebody got killed by a train and this dude went and took one of the legs like a weirdo wow
yeah seems seems like a strange thing to want to take if i want a souvenir yeah i witnessed this
can i take a leg it'd be like brian taking that guy's tire after he read exactly hop over there
Again, if I wouldn't have potentially caused injury to myself to go over to his car and cross the on-ramp, then I could have taken something, a little souvenir.
That was a little danger pocket, that whole video.
It was, yeah, that certainly did not want to get, plus the guy on 911 was saying, yeah, if you're not able to get out of your car without risking injury, are there people over there?
I'm like, yeah, there are three people already over there checking on him.
And one of them was on their phone calling, probably also calling 911.
I think your name was Angelica, as a matter of fact, because it was a whole police thing when I called me and thought I was Angelica.
They had a whole list of people who called from that deal.
I love that you answered with your voice, and then they said, is this Angelica?
Like, what's going on with that?
That seems crazy.
How did they not know?
How did they not know?
They didn't ask if it was, yeah.
They said, do we speak to Angelica?
Oh, okay.
Oh, well, this is Denver Police Department.
I said, oh, yeah, I think you're probably calling on the same thing that, that, uh, you're,
that both I and Angelica called about.
Well, I'm glad, and also it was night.
There's a lot of reasons you don't want to get out of your car.
I'm glad you didn't do it.
Anyway, this guy was arrested after allegedly taking a leg from the scene of a deadly train collision in Wosco.
Where is this? California.
Officials reported that the 27-year-old Resendo Tellez removed evidence from the site after a person was struck and killed by a train,
which severed their leg around 8 a.m. at the city's Amtrak station.
disturbing video circulated on social media of a man
appearing to hold a severed body part
in this case a leg
and eat from it
God, oh God
why wasn't that in the headline?
They buried the headline.
This is the most
buried, most buried headline
we've ever read on the show.
For real. Yeah. Yeah.
You take the top spot. Congratulations.
It's literally a Huffo article.
I was pulling up
our indie in the middle, the notes on our Indian
the middle.
And you said that, like, wait a minute, I didn't see that in the headline.
Yeah, it's very weird.
The man in the video appears to raise the body part in the air as law enforcement arrives.
The current county sheriff's office reportedly took Tellez into custody without the incident on multiple outstanding warrants for allegedly taking evidence from the scene.
Deadly train collision is under investigation by the BNSF Railway.
So, yeah, I'm going to just say this.
If you witness any kind of accident and somebody is dismembered, whether they perish or not, don't be taken an arm or a leg.
or anything else, or eat it.
It's a country buffet.
Yeah.
What are you doing?
What drugs are you on?
It has to be drugs, right?
Why would you do that?
I would think so.
I mean, I can't imagine, A, walk you up and saying, oh, uh, you didn't think anybody
would mind if I just took this, but then the, uh, then the eating of it.
Yeah, it's like these people melt plastic and snort it or something.
Like, why, why are you so strong out?
You haven't watched the video, have you?
Because I don't think I could.
Oh, no, I can't do it.
No.
Yeah.
There's certain things where I'll watch a fail video.
I'll watch a car accident if I know somebody's okay after.
Like, I don't mind all that.
I can't do like.
I've still never seen two girls one cup.
To this day, never seen it because I haven't either.
I only know about it.
I saw a reaction video and that was like, okay, that looks like something I never need to see.
Yeah.
All I knew from it was that I didn't want to see it.
Yeah.
I know the plot.
I don't even know the plot.
I know enough to know that it was.
grossing people out so bad and now you say there's a couple of girls in a cup involved
you can put two and two together on this thing i don't want anything i don't want to go anywhere
near whatever the hell that is uh so don't tell me anyone chat
uh you all fooled me with that damn goatsy yeah i don't gonna fool me again you're not gonna
give me again or freaking tub girl or whatever that was back in the day i heard that was fake
or no is it was it real tub girl i have no idea
All I know is I was horrified by it.
Yeah, yeah.
So never again.
That was when you stopped using your hot tub, I think.
It was basically right then that you.
When Randy showed up in that.
Yeah, it was when Randy got in.
It was when Randy got in.
It was a tubman.
Yeah, yeah, that's what happened.
Anyway, that guy's in trouble.
Don't be eating legs.
Here's a thing.
California Police Department has been using Lego heads to mask identities of suspects.
They've been just like plopping them on these photos and stuff.
Really?
Yeah.
They thought they were real funny about it
Because you do have to protect them
But it's rather than a blur
Here's a Lego
Minifig head
I can kind of see why you might goof around
Like that, whatever
But Lego is pissed
And they have instructed
The California Police Department
To stop using Lego heads
As masks
The Murrieta Police Department of California
Has been instructed by Lego
To stop doing it
They've been digitally adding these heads
onto photos of suspects
The police department
Lieutenant Jeremy Durant
Told Fox News Digital
and a statement that the Lego group requested
that they stop using Lego heads
in their social media posts.
They reached out to us
and respectfully asked us to refrain
from using their intellectual property
and social media content,
which of course we understand
and we'll comply with, says Durant.
We are currently exploring other methods
to continue publishing our content
in a way that is engaging and interesting
to our followers.
That's a weird.
Mecca blocks says, sure, go ahead.
Go ahead, yeah.
Here's a snack of them.
Use all the ones you want.
They don't care, do they?
No.
put a you know what just put a block on their face just tell you don't need a face just put a
like a six peg mega block use use heads from that painting of the dogs playing poker oh i'd be
into that that's great if i got arrested right now what would you prefer they use to to mask your
identity what uh right what um let's see i mean i feel like the i'm not going to go with the obvious
like wow a picture of george cluny or something like that um uh i i
say,
uh,
uh,
I don't know.
I'm trying to grab my,
trying to grab my,
uh,
I have it over here somewhere.
Oh,
this joke is going poorly.
That's all right.
I'll have to cover it with this.
Oh shit,
of course.
Duh,
we'd all use the ibup bomb.
We'd all just use the ibup bomb.
And what's great is,
they'd be like,
oh,
there's no way that he could look like that under there.
So,
that can't possibly be him.
Yeah,
I don't think,
I don't know what I'd want.
I think I'd want like,
um,
you know,
like a big eyeball.
Just an eyeball.
Oh, yeah, like the residents, basically.
Yeah.
That old band of residence.
Just a big eye right in the center there.
That'd be cool.
Yeah. Let's see here.
Yeah, it's just Spider-Man mask.
You could use this.
That'd be great.
Yeah, it'd be all right.
Although, then you'd have Marvel after you,
and they're litigious as hell, those bastards.
Yeah, they probably would not approve.
No.
All right, that'll do it for today's news.
A couple stories to keep you warm,
and we'll have more tomorrow.
But right now we're going to do some science or a break,
and then we're going to come back with some science with Bobby.
And he's here once again three weeks in a row because Stephen's had stuff.
He's had, you know, things.
It's quite a run.
Quite a run, Bobby's having.
Yeah, it's amazing.
But Stephen did assure me he'll be back next week.
He's just been busy with school stuff where he works.
So all that coming up after this song, Brian, what did you bring?
Yeah, so turn up the volume, the blog, Turn Up the Volume says,
when they heard this band, think deaf tones having a noise wrestling fight with Mastodon
with Evanesc's charismatic Hellcat as ref.
Wow.

to watch the stink of morbius off so i guess so he he sometimes impresses the hell out of me
in movies and things and then sometimes he's like really in
knowing to me. So I don't know how to feel about it. Let's see here. Who we add into this call?
Oh, yeah. I think we're adding Bobby. We are. Almost added Stephen, even though he's not here.
All right. Bobby's not a huge freaking nerd. That's right. He's not a huge freaking nerd. He is,
however, a purveyor of scientific knowledge. And that's why we have him here. Let's do it.
Science.
Bob is hungry and the soup looks good. Well, let's prove it. Bob, are you
hungry and does the soup look good?
I am hungry.
I don't have any soup handy.
Yeah.
But I'm sure it looks good.
It probably looks good.
You're not going to deny everyone some good-looking soup.
Yeah, I'm sure it looks fine.
To each their own.
Yeah.
That's what I always say.
It's good to have you here.
Egg picture that Scott put in the thing almost looks like egg soup.
Yeah, a little bit.
Your bread into that egg soup.
A little bit, right?
It looks like, I mean, it is so coddled that I'm not even sure it's cooked.
Right.
I feel like there's some stuff on the edge.
that does it not look, yeah, it does not look opaque.
Best I can tell from the three ways that I found that you can prepare these,
and they give you three specific cooking methods.
It's all really just about, is it done?
It's barely done.
Okay, is there just a little film of, like, tying it together?
So you really are coddling it.
Yeah.
Yeah, you have to, you can't let it, you can't put it in there and walk away.
You have to coddle that damn thing.
Yeah, coddle your eggs, everybody, or else.
These helicopters, snowflake eggs.
Yeah, these eggs are easy.
easily triggered eggs. Is that what you're saying?
Anyway, well, it's good to have you here, man, three weeks in a row.
Who knows what will come out of your mouth today, except you have to answer this phone call first.
All right, we're going to play it.
This is about you and your flying stuff.
So I'll play it, and then we'll talk about it.
Here you go.
The morning stream.
Hi, salad and bread.
In the ongoing soap opera of the show, we heard Bobby was learning to fly,
and that at some point
he got to do a solo flight, but we never
heard the end. Is he a pilot
now? Please inform
me. Take
these Bobby wings
and learn to fly again.
Fly around the cheese.
All right.
First of all, it's fine if you guys call in
stoned and or drunk. It's totally fine.
We don't care. We'll take your calls either way.
Secondly, Bobby, it does feel like
We heard about your...
Mr. and Mr. on the phone.
That's right.
Yeah, two misters is too many.
We did hear about your big solo flight test and stuff, but I guess it's true.
We haven't really heard a ton about like, now what?
Are you flying all the time?
Are you flying other people?
Are you getting calls from United?
Like, what do you do now?
Well, I'm not...
I don't have any goals of being a commercial pilot.
Definitely not an airline pilot.
That's not going to happen.
But it's possible if I were able to become a personal, a commercial license.
pilot i might pursue that but there are issues with vision that might not be quite good enough for
the f a that that um that that that might get in the way of that but it was never a goal i always just
wanted to learn how to fly and so i did i'm a pilot now drunk listener i can't remember the name
i can't remember very slowly i'm glad he said uh salad and bread's pretty good because we were
just talking about salad it's pretty good timing yeah exactly my bread in this in this instance you're
always bread. You can be bread.
If he meant me, then
I'll happily give you bread. Well, there are two
slices.
Yeah.
There are two. You're right. Usually.
It's actually unlimited if you go to the right place.
Like, if you go to Olive Garden, that bread
keeps on coming.
Do you have WinCo's where you live?
The chain WinCo?
Does that sound familiar? Okay. No.
Went to a place yesterday called WinCo, which
it was recommended to us as having really
good prices on, like, produce and
and stuff kind of like anti-inflationary kind of stuff.
But they also make you bag all your own stuff.
They cut out a bunch of the fluff of what you would usually expect at a grocery store.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And there aren't like fake coupons and all that.
But they had the best deals on the most amazing freaking bread.
And I'm like, I'm maybe supposed to eat this much bread, but I walked out of there with some whole green, like sliced up awesome bread.
So anyway, anyone out there, I have a win coat?
Go there.
It's great.
It's freaking good.
Anyway.
but yeah I'm flying I try to fly once every week or two actually and just to keep skills up I just
just a couple weeks ago started my instrument training and so the short version of that I tell everybody
that instrument training is is that it just it's a it's an extra it's an extra part of your
certificate that you get that allows you to fly in the clouds basically this might be a dumb
question but like okay once you graduate and you're not using the instructor plane i assume that when
you're learning you're using the instructor's plane or it depends on where you go you have you some places
you'll have an instructor and you'll provide your own plane or you'll rent a plane separately and then
hire an instructor to come with you but a lot of places a lot of instructors operate out of
small privately owned flight schools and and flight schools are often like you know said
with air quotes because not as a not not not to say that pejoratively like that's there's no
problem but when we say flight school some of these places really just are airports that
own um several planes several planes and then they also employ flight instructors so that they can get
you know those planes can be constantly going up and flight instructors have a place to to
to also get um their flight time and have a job as well so okay and so then once you graduate you
still just still able to rent those planes so when you go uh once a week or once every couple
weeks you rent the plane you fly it and yep um yeah that's and that's what i do actually there's um
it wasn't the school that i went to but there's a there's an airport near here that has a flight
school that they've got a fleet of like four cessno 172s and that's the one that's the type of plane
that I learned in. So I just go there and they've got like a program online booking program. You go in there and book yourself a plane and then go and I just take one of their planes up and fly. Do they make you fuel it up before you bring it back kind of thing? Yeah. It's fun because this this airport that I fly out of doesn't do. Where I trained does full service fuel. You would call them up and be like, hey, I need the plane topped off and they'd do it for you. This place that I rent at now is all self service fuel. So which is kind of fun. So you have done. So you have done.
Do you just drive it over to another part of the airport, fill it up when you, after you land kind of thing?
At the airport, there's like a gas pump for planes.
And you're like, you pull up to it and you have to get out like a ladder and you have to ground the plane electrically, you know.
Wow. Oh, yeah. Sure. That makes sense.
And you climb up the thing with a big, big like gas pump over your shoulder and put it into the wings.
You try to hit an even number and do the whole like thread up?
trying to get it to an even 20 or 30 bucks or I don't know how much
Yeah, whatever fuel costs
Then you spill the fuel all over the all over the plane.
Oh, geez.
What is a gallon of, it's not jet fuel, airline fuel.
It's not, it's called it aviation fuel, yeah.
Aviation fuel. What's the, is it different than gas by a significant amount?
Is it?
Absolutely, yeah.
Higher.
You should not put out or something or.
It's just got, I don't know the specifics, but I know.
It's got nutrients and minerals that are good for,
What a growing airplane needs.
Yeah, it's got a high fiber diet for your plane.
But yeah, a gallon of aviation fuel depends on the airport you go to.
But I've seen them between six and a half would be really cheap all the way up to I've seen like $10 a gallon.
Where I am right now, it's around $7-ish $7 to $8 a gallon.
Jeez.
It's not that bad.
It's not cheap.
And planes hold a lot of fuel.
I kind of thought that'd be higher.
So I guess, I guess it's still high, but it's, I don't know, I just thought, well, it's airplane fuel.
So therefore, you're going to pay way more than you would for a car.
But really, you're just paying about double, almost triple, I guess.
It's good to know that aviation fuel is cheaper than aviation gin.
So that's, there's that.
That's right.
It's not really cheaper, though, because, Scott, because a plane, like the planes that I fly, they burn between 8 and 10 gallons an hour.
Oh, wow.
So it might not be as expensive as you thought per gallon,
but you're using many more gallons per hour than in a car.
So those tanks are big then because you've got to do like...
Yeah, I have a plane with a relatively small tank and it's 38 gallon tank.
Oh, wow.
And it holds 38 gallons.
But, you know, the one that I trained in had like around 55 or so gallons.
Do you know anything about, this is such a side question, but like the rise of EVs in car.
Do you think there's a chance that eventually smaller, you know, two people, four people planes could adopt a technology that would mean no more fuel?
I think eventually, I think eventually it will, but right now it's it's very difficult.
Battery weight, yeah.
Yeah, batteries are very heavy.
I think it'll probably, you'll see them in larger, largeish planes that are carrying cargo first.
Yeah.
You probably will, you might see them in.
small general aviation planes, they might exist, and I'm not aware of it, but it's all very
experimental if it does exist. But batteries are getting lighter, battery technology is getting
lighter and lighter all the time. So that's something that the aviation industry is 100%
actively. It's an active area of research. Interesting. Yeah. I could see that being a big boon
because, I don't know, that technology could lead to other launch methods for rockets eventually.
I mean, that seems crazy because the boost you need is so insane.
Maybe not rockets.
That's difficult, right?
Because the reason rockets are able to get things off the ground is because they have propellant.
The whole point of propellant is that it's propelling something out of the back of it to cause the rocket to go up.
And you need a lot of that.
So I don't know that batteries will ever get rockets off the ground.
But you take some batteries to start it and the world's largest Caesar salad is your propellant.
And then we solve two problems, you know.
A big container of lentils to give you the gas boost that you need to get it out there.
Throw some refried in there.
We're on our way to Mars, everybody.
Well, anyway, that's awesome.
Though this is not our subject today.
Our subject today is currently unknown to Brian and I, so why don't you share it with us?
Well, so there's actually a lot of science news this week.
There's stuff about like dogs.
Humans have finally caught up with dogs
and getting tick medication perhaps
There's also
There was a major flu strain that went extinct
Apparently the Voyager probe is under attack
From the universe that is trying to make it crash
Oh no
But I'm talking about none of those
Because I saw this headline
And I knew I had to do it for TMS
Which was the headline was
Dog's brain activity shows they recognize
The names of objects
And if I see dogs' brains
Yeah, it's a, it's a lock.
Do we have the audio clip handy, Scott?
I don't know if I do.
Hold on.
Let's see.
Brains.
Did I put it in here?
Do dogs have brains?
Because I, like, seriously wanted to know.
Oh my gosh.
Perfect.
Exactly.
Nice.
All right.
So there was a new study that just came out that suggests that dogs actually can
recognize the names of objects.
And the data that they have is brain activity evidence.
like they put EEGs or ECGs on the, or it's EEGs,
they put it on the heads of dogs and were able to determine
whether or not their brain activity changed whenever they match
or didn't match the names of an object and the object itself.
Now, you might be wondering, didn't we already know that dogs can
identify object ball, get ball, like we had dogs that would know,
Both of our dogs would know, oh, that's the ball.
I'd bring back the ball and not the teddy bear or whatever.
Yeah.
I thought the same thing.
But apparently, according to this article that I read, there's been a lot of research that's been done over the past few decades since 1981, I believe, that showed that dogs actually, despite what we think, generally dogs do not recognize the names of objects.
there's a when when we think about understanding like recognizing the name of an object we it's called referential understanding in psychology and and it's the connection between a word and then the mental representation of that word so what we think of dogs doing when we say go get the ball or the bone or something like that it could be that the dog is doing something else they're not actually hearing the word of the object and then creating a mental
image of it and then retrieving it. It just may be an action. Because one thing that's known
about dogs is that they are very good at understanding, maybe not objects, but they do understand
commands very well. Yeah, that's true. So what I said to my dogs this morning, are you guys
hungry? And they all went, their eyes, you know, their ears went up and they all freaked out
because they know when I say hungry, it's food. We know that that's them hearing a word or to them
a sound combo that means a certain result, right?
So it makes sense to me that they would have the same thing with, like Brian said, with a ball
or with a anything else.
Yeah, it does seem to make intuitive sense because you're right.
It's incontrovertible that dogs, and through research as well, that dogs do understand
language in some way.
And especially commands, you can teach a dog commands.
And like you said, you can, if you say, you guys hungry or are you ready, ready for
for some dinner or food or something like that,
there seems to be a response that you will get out of a dog.
And so it, but the past research has shown that it's not this referential understanding.
It's not that they understand that that word is an object and it connects them with a mental image of an object.
It just, they've probably what, or at least this is what was thought because obviously this research has changed our understanding of that,
but it was thought that dogs just had
they would hear something
and then it would
they would learn over time to connect that
with an event or or a feeling
right
and so it would change their behavior
but it wouldn't necessarily change
the internal state of their mind
so
so yeah but
there are studies that have been done and replicated
they can still have problems even if they've
been replicated it can be really hard
to isolate certain things so problems
with old studies might have been that dogs are in the laboratory, dogs can be very easily
distracted, right?
There's a lot of distractions in laboratory settings, so maybe there's something else going on
whenever they tried to see if they understood.
Because what they used to do to determine what they thought was that dogs didn't know
what these object words were.
The way they used to test for that is they would just put a bunch of objects in front of
dogs, and then they would ask them to fetch one of them.
And it was always just a random result.
dogs would just randomly pick something.
Whatever's closest or most brightly colored or whatever.
Something, right, right?
Also, whenever these tests were done, it was always done with the dog's trainer or owner present.
And so that can kind of confuse things as well.
But because we know that dogs do like humans a lot, there's evolutionary pressure that has caused that.
But this research, they decided to try to sort of eliminate a lot of these things.
They designed an experiment that would work around a lot of these distraction issues.
They put EEG's electroencephalograms, but basically these electrode caps on the dogs.
And they would try to get them not to fetch something.
This is kind of an interesting design that they had.
It took advantage of what's known in psychology as the N400 effect, which is when you show a subject that you're experimenting on an object,
Right.
And then you either present them with a matching or mismatching name for that object.
Then the brain activity looks different depending on whether you gave them a matching or mismatching object.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
All right.
So it's very distinct, the brain activity.
So we know that the brain responds differently when a word is matched with an object or if it's not matched with an object.
It's called the N400 effect because the peak of the difference in the brain activity appears about 400,
milliseconds after the presentation of the word.
But so what they did for dogs is they reversed that.
They tested in the reverse. They would give the dog a word like say, where's the ball or
something like that? And then they would show them an object. It kind of was clever. They sat
the dog in front of glass that could be, this kind of glass that could be electronically
made opaque or transparent. And so they would present.
present them with a recording of their owner giving them a word a word that involved an object and then they would make the glass like go from opaque to transparent and behind the glass would be objects and sometimes that it would contain the object that was named sometimes it wouldn't and they wanted to see is this brain effect that we see in humans do we see it in dogs and they found out that it does so
Was there any issues with the dogs seeing the screen thing, given their difference of spectrum?
They have a different visual spectrum than we do a little bit, right?
Yeah, well, it was just glass.
So it wouldn't have affected that because light can get through it just fine.
But it's just they would make the glass opaque, so nothing could get through.
They couldn't see anything on the other side of it.
And then it would just suddenly be transparent.
And now they could see it.
Okay.
All right.
That makes sense.
Yeah, there's a clear difference in brain activity when they were presented with matching versus mismatching objects.
and the strength of the brain activity was stronger when the dog, the more familiar the dog was with the object in question.
They break this down by breed, or did they do it with certain kinds of dogs?
Like, was it a...
I didn't see any a thing about that in what I read.
Just curious if they, like, found it to be stronger in some breeds and less than others.
Because it always...
That would be a really interesting follow-up study if they didn't do that,
because we do know that different breeds of dogs were bred for...
different purposes right sure sure in the same way you're never going to get a hummingbird to say your name
but you're going to get a you know a raven to do it it's like and also like some breeds of dogs
are really good at um identifying like and looking for things in the ground because they're like
hounds or something like that and they they are good at smelling things or or searching for things
hidden on the ground where some some dogs aren't as good at that you know some better at hearing or
Did this take into account any of those popular, I showed a little video of it, but there's very popular dog button pads you can create.
Oh, yeah, where they actually make the noise when they press on it, like they can say, hungry, feed me.
Yeah, feed me.
They press a certain button.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I've never actually seen any kind of science on how well those things actually work.
I'm sure it exists, but those are interesting, you know, trying to figure out how to communicate with animals is something.
we're always trying to do, especially
charismatic animals that we spend a lot of time with.
Yeah, the ones that we like.
Yeah.
Right.
That makes sense.
Well, that's interesting.
We don't care much about what a possum wants to tell us.
No.
No, what do they have to say?
Nothing is the answer to that.
No, I think that's just really interesting.
Oh, it's fascinating.
Yeah.
And I kind of wanted to get those buttons and try those with our dogs, but I'm not sure.
They're expensive.
It's like, boy, it's a really expensive experiment to find out your
dog doesn't want to press buttons to tell you when they're hungry.
Yeah, because I'm guessing there are going to be dogs who don't.
Like, they're straight up, just never going to get it.
But then you might have one that'll be like, oh, it seems like when I push this,
I get fed.
And then maybe it'll be worth it.
But I don't know, these things are expensive.
Hundreds of bucks for this.
I'm not paying for that.
Yeah.
Well, Bobby.
Hard to train, too.
No, yeah.
Hell yeah.
You do this kind of stuff all the time on your little show over there, the all-around
science.
And we love that thing.
So tell people where to get it and what's coming up on that thing.
Well, all around science.
Yeah, that's our science podcast.
Every week we talk about science and what's going on in science news.
And one of those things I mentioned a minute ago is we're going to be talking about this week.
That'll be next Monday.
It has to do with the tick medication.
There's a tick medication in humans that they're working on.
But this one that came out today was a little bit different.
we talked about something that maybe a lot of people
it's a two-week theme we're talking about space and engineering in space
but this time we talked about what the problem of trying to poop and pee in space
oh is that an issue I didn't know that was the thing it's not easy it's not easy
I'll tell one little apparently and I didn't realize this either apparently
we evolved all of our bodily functions on earth where there's plenty of gravity
And so you, you need the gravity to get it done.
Like, without gravity, apparently, you can't tell when you need to pee very easily.
Because the weight of the weight of your bladder changes, like it's not pressuring downward anymore.
Yeah, that's interesting.
Exactly.
Wasn't there, there's a whole thing I was reading about the other day about, um, heart, or sorry, cancers are having a way easier time spreading and growing in space,
based on some studies
than it is on Earth
because gravity helps something
cellular, like fight off something?
I don't know the details,
but this sounds like something
you guys would cover eventually.
Yeah, it makes sense.
Like our bodies evolved
in a gravitational field.
Yeah, we're all going to look like
belters one day if we go out there too much.
Gotta be careful.
Well, fascinating.
It's all around science,
wherever you get your podcast.
Go check that out.
Bobby, thanks for stepping in once again.
for Stephen, he appreciates it too.
He's a huge freaking nerd.
He's a huge freaking nerd.
We'll see you next time.
All right, there goes, Bobby.
Into the fray.
And here goes us into the,
why won't this work?
There it is.
It works now.
Hey, you guys.
A couple quick final things.
We got a lift question for you,
Brian, from Amanda.
Yeah.
She says this.
Good morning.
Scooter and bus.
Question for Brian.
How do you track your mileage for lift?
I'm doing taxes and apparently should have been tracking my
mileage, L.O.L. What do you use so I can save myself some trouble for next year? Thank you,
Amanda. What would you say? Yeah, see, that's the thing about lift. They track the miles that you
put on your car when you've got a passenger in there, but they don't track the, like, oh, there's a
lift ride four miles away. Go pick this person up. So that four miles never gets tracked. They start
their little clock when you, when that person is in your car and they end it when that person
gets out of your car. So if you, again, have to go another five miles to get to your next ride or two
miles or whatever. None of that stuff is tracked. So I use, there's an app called Everlands
and you let it have, you give it access to your tracking, right? So basically you can see where
you're driving. And then it logs your trip. So when you stop in a particular place for more
than a minute, it treats it as the end of one trip in the beginning of another one. So at the
end of every day or the end of every week, you can go through and it's really just swiping left
her right? Like, oh yeah, that was a ride I did for Lyft. That was a right I did for Lyft. That was a right I, you know, when we went down to dinner. Or you can do what I do, which is since I, during the day, the only time I ever use my car prior to 6 o'clock on weekdays is to do Lyft. Otherwise, we're taking Tina's car. And what I do is, although that would still, because my phone is still with me when I am in Tina's car, well, we don't care about that.
but anything, but really anything prior to 7 p.m., any rides or drives or trips that I do prior to 7 p.m. are logged for Lyft,
and then after 7 p.m. are for, or personal. And the app is really, really easy to, like, manage, you know, one versus the other.
It seriously is, like, swiping left and right.
What was the name of the app again for?
Everlands. Everlance.
Everlance. E-V-E-R-L-A-N-C-E, all one word.
I think it maybe costs two or three bucks a month to track everything,
but the money you'll save because, you know, again, the report you get from Lyft,
if you give that to your tax person, it's like, great, you did exactly the mileage for when somebody's in your car.
But you want all the mileage you put on because there's a lot of it.
Yeah, and if you're like Brian and I, your independent, you know, sole proprietorships,
track all your mileage.
You can categorize it, but just keep it all.
like my my account's like what i don't care where you're driving you give me those miles and i'm like
all right yeah exactly right i went to taco bell
work related yeah i went to taco bell i had a meeting i talked about work it counts
i mean it's it's like our uh because we do film sac and because we talk about stuff on the show
like our streaming services are are part of our work like they're they're absolutely
included in our um in our end of your statements the amount we pay for those yeah every video
game I buy, every game service I
subscribe to, PlayStation Plus,
Game Pass, all that stuff. That all gets counted.
Oh, I guess I need to start doing a show
on Brazzers, though, to call it,
to make that streaming service pay.
That's right. That's right. You got to
get that going. Bangbuss.com. I guess I need
to get...
Why not, indeed?
Put that on the list, yeah.
Well, thank you for that. Appreciate it.
A quick note here. When you guys send us
calls, and the ones that get
the most for sure played on the show
are ones that are like a
minute or less. Sometimes you guys send two, three minute calls that are great, but it's mostly
just like telling us a cool thing, not really a respond to kind of thing. And so those tend to pile
up a little bit. And today, after the song, I will be putting a stack of these. I think they're
four total at the end of the song or at the end of the thing. So if you're somebody who sent in one
of these calls before and you thought, ah, they didn't play it because it was too long. I save these
for this. Every once in a while, we just do a little venting of longer calls. So after the
song today, stay around for those.
All right, just let you know at home.
Live people, you won't hear them live,
but everybody at home, you sure will.
That's it.
Everything is at frogpans.com slash TMS that you might ever need,
except for this knowledge,
which is a song we're going to play at the end of the show,
and Brian will tell us all about it.
Song knowledge.
I love getting song knowledge.
This one, so as I do continue to play catch-up
with all the requests that have come in over March,
I apologize for some of you actually have them on specific days,
As a matter of fact, I think Chuck has one that was supposed to be today,
but somebody had one that was requested earlier that I need to do.
That's all right.
Good luck.
Good luck with your thing today, Chuck, and we'll talk about that tomorrow.
I've got your schedule for tomorrow.
Today, though, is a dedication from Gene.
So I told you about last month, Gene, who's a listener to the show,
and also knows Marianne from Brooklyn, from the Howard Stern show,
a member of the Wackback.
He came out to Denver with his friend Margulay and the two of them met us at a local brewery and we just had a blast.
Even though there was a live band performing in the brewery, we still had a great time talking and laughing and getting all caught up.
Well, Gene writes, you once asked me, how do I know when I find the one?
I finally found her.
Thank you.
And so this is a dedication from Jean to Marguerle.
And they're just the cutest friends, the cutest couple.
