Starting point is 00:01:20 I don't like Exxon Valdez. Sentinels. Stupid and great. A urine a day keeps the doctor away. Know your car holes. I be any more of a ghost? What are you listening to in this picture? Oh, there goes gravity with TV's Travis and more on this episode of The Morning Stream.
Starting point is 00:01:39 I am the one who runs from both the living and the dead. Whoa, whoa, hold on there, steely dance. The morning stream smells like apple pie. Hello everybody. Welcome to TMS. This is the morning stream for Tuesday, May 21st, 2024. I'm Scott Johnson, and Brian Nibbitt is here also. I'm here also people. Also here. Also here. Also and here. That's right. It's good to see you all. We hope you're having a lovely Tuesday. You know, getting up, having your coffee or whatever your morning routine is. I don't care what you is. do and then you show up here and you listen to us either live or maybe later because that's how your schedule goes we are cool with it either way maybe you're not maybe you're not listening to us uh with coffee maybe you're listening to us so during a three martini lunch or a glass of wine
Starting point is 00:02:45 after dinner or maybe just a glass of water yeah or maybe maybe some of that postum remember postum that was a thing i don't remember postum oh postom was like a coffee alternative that all my friends loved growing up. Post them? Yeah. Is that still a threat, my wonder? Let's see. I see a logo for it.
Starting point is 00:03:05 I see a can powdered roasted grain beverage. Popular as a coffee substitute. Hmm, nothing sounds better than a powdered roasted grain beverage. It sounds terrible, doesn't it? It really does. It's just awful. There it is. Postum comes in a little can.
Starting point is 00:03:17 You mix it in with your hotness, your hot water. Oh, that's funny. It's named after Post, CW Post, Post, Cereal Cereal Company. Oh, is that real? It's true? I didn't know that. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Oh, no idea. But according to people that I, at least, you know, they would tell me this anyway, it tasted as good as coffee without the harsh caffeine or whatever. I think you just could get a decaf, though. I like the caffeine, though. I mean. It's what you want. It's what you do. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:47 What's the point? Yeah. Ripping on the caffeine. Give me the shakes taking away my caffeine. Yeah, look like if they've got. original and then natural coffee flavor and then cocoa blend. And it looks like they still make it. Still good.
Starting point is 00:04:03 It looks like Amazon's got it in jars and bags. I can get a big old jar from Amazon for about $14. And yeah, someone out there's drinking this. You should ride in whoever you are. Yeah, please do. And if not, then maybe I need to. It's just really funny. I need the caffeine, so it seems silly.
Starting point is 00:04:24 but do you feel like so if you had a day I don't know recently where like zero caffeine have you felt that or how long has it been since caffeine coursed through your veins if you had to oh I mean I have it every morning I do have coffee every morning I'm trying to think of the last time I didn't have some form of coffee in the morning it's been God I can't I can't think of how long it's been I'm sure there's been a day in the last month or something but I didn't have coffee but I can't think of it. But you're not the type to get all headachey and like... No, no. No, I can go without it. I really, I don't even think caffeine really affects me that much anymore because I can go to, go to the movies, get a Coke Zero and watch Godzilla and King Kong
Starting point is 00:05:09 beat the poop out of each other, have their stupid large Coke Zero and maybe drink a, you know, a quarter of a refill, whatever people, get off my back. And then still, half an hour after we get home, be zonked out either on the couch in front of the TV or in bed. Sure. That makes sense. There's also a chicory root. That's a thing people do. It's an alternative to coffee.
Starting point is 00:05:34 Chickory coffee. Yeah, I guess so. That's the popular in Louisiana. Get your chicory coffee and your bignets. Have you tried, have you had the mushroom style? I had that once. It was all right. Oh, yeah. No, I've never had that, or at least not knowingly
Starting point is 00:05:49 had that. It's very weird because on the one hand, it is, you'll taste it go oh this is like this is coffee adjacent but then there's a taste that kicks in kind of later where you're like it's musky it's a little like oh yeah it's mushroomy right think i want that yeah yeah it's supposed to be good for you but i i don't i don't know not really my not really my jam and i love mushrooms dude i love them saute them all day put them on pizza do all the things you do with mushrooms happy salads raw cooked i don't care but if you're going to make me drink liquid mushroom.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Now, how are you on, like, cream of mushroom soup, though? Oh, I do like that. Yeah, see, that is a, there is a weird, like, uh... Yeah, I do like that. If the coffee tasted like that, if the coffee alternative tastes like that, I might be into it. I might like it. I would be into that, too.
Starting point is 00:06:37 Like a little savory, a hot savory drink in the morning? Oh, man. Yeah. Yeah, but as long as you got a little caffeine in there, we're all good. Uh, let's see. Oh, Bobby says a medium-sized soda, 21 fluid ounces. Isn't that funny that 21 fluid ounces is like, What is that? A can is 12 ounces?
Starting point is 00:06:56 16, 12? 16? 16 is the bottle of the bottles. Oh, 16's bottle must be 12 then. So 12. So almost two cans is considered a medium-sized soda. Isn't that bizarre? I feel like that, I mean, it is about what they serve in a movie theater. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:13 It has about the same caffeine as an 8 ounce cup of black tea. Interesting. Oh, really? It's less caffeine in Coke than I thought. I used to be sensitive to caffeine. I'm not anymore. You could give me, you know, one of those weird shots in the morning. You could give me, you know, two coffees and a Coke zero later, and I still, I don't, I really don't feel it.
Starting point is 00:07:35 I used to. I used to get all jittery and kind of freaky and stuff. I don't do that anymore. I think it changed. My metabolism has changed over time. There goes, Brian. Look, you just downed a little bit there. I did.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Look at all this talk about coffee. I need a coffee. You need to drink. Well, that's the best part of waking up is what they say. It really is. It's a little bit of Panera coffee in my Spider-Man mug. Oh, you went to the Panera today? So I go there most mornings because I pay $11 a month and get all the coffee I can drink.
Starting point is 00:08:11 So basically, they're close enough that it's easier and cheaper than me buying a pound of coffee every two weeks. Yeah. It's easier and cheaper for me. to go and just go and fill up my coffee mug at Panera. I'm back in five minutes, and I pay $11 a month for the privilege. And you like their coffee, right? I like their coffee, yeah. That's important.
Starting point is 00:08:35 If you didn't like it, you probably wouldn't do it. Oh, my gosh, yeah, there is Tina drinks coffee as well, boy who cried Wolf, or the boy who cried dot, dot, dot, because your name is too damn long, at least in my IRC chat thing. Tina drinks Dewey Eggbert's coffee. I buy that for her and she, like, I can get a big old thing. It's the freeze-dried stuff that I found at MGM Grand
Starting point is 00:08:58 several years ago and hunted and hunted for it and I buy it as an import from Europe because it's so damn good. Oh, Dutch coffee. I never even heard of Dewey Eggbirds. Yeah, Dewey Eggbert's. Golly. Basically, I've never done this, or at least
Starting point is 00:09:14 I can't think of another time when I've done this. But we were at MGM staying there for one of our trips back in, you know, early 2000s or mid-2000s or something. And went to their coffee shop and I'm like, whoa, this coffee, I felt like a commercial, this coffee is
Starting point is 00:09:30 so damn good. What is this coffee? I'm like, oh, I don't know. I'll find out. And he went back and talked to the, you know, one of the guys in the kitchen and then he basically brought out this giant canister of Dewey Egbert's freeze-dried
Starting point is 00:09:46 coffee. And I'm like, wow, so it's not even brewed. They're like, yeah, but the way they make it, they brew it, freeze dry, and then you just add hot water to it. So it's not like you're drinking something that's processed or not real coffee. You're just basically drinking coffee that's been dehydrated or freeze-dried. I don't even know what the
Starting point is 00:10:04 freeze-drying process is. Is that what they used to make dipping dots? Yeah, dip and dots are freeze-dried, I think. Are they? I think so. I think that's like a mix of or like they do it somehow with um what's the frozen nitrogen what's the stuff that uh the dry ice liquid nitrogen is that it except it's not liquid though not liquid um
Starting point is 00:10:28 it's a gas uh no it is liquid nitrogen right because it's in a glass or they have to keep it in like a thermos thing yeah yeah right right right when we were kids they do stuff in science class where it freeze balloons and stuff like yeah yeah right exactly um yeah so i think that's these that for dipping dots or something that'll be a good bobby question yeah let's do an entire science segment on dipping dots bobby seriously yeah how does it how does it work yes because is it really going to be the ice cream of the future like it like it touts itself i know i feel like it's been around long enough that it can no longer say the future because we've come past yeah yeah it had its chance to really make a foothold like really put basket robins and dairy queen out of business and it hasn't done
Starting point is 00:11:11 it so i feel like the ice cream of the present there's still there The weird styrofoam packing peanuts ice cream of the present. Oh, speaking of which, I finally, finally went to a shake shack. I'd never been. Oh, yeah. Everybody said, oh, you got to go to Shake Shack. So Kim and I went there the other day. And it's fine.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Yeah, it's fine. It's a good burger. The burger's fine. It's not, it's a little, you know, I think the single was like $6.50, and it was pretty small. So I wasn't thrilled with that part of it. They had these kimchi fries that were really good, Korean spicy kimchi fries. I enjoyed that. And then, although the sauce they gave you look like baby poo, so just beware.
Starting point is 00:11:50 But it's really good. Tasted good, but it'll look bad. The shake, though, which I shared with Kim, because I'm not a maniac. Yes, right. We had a peach something shake. That was fantastic. The emphasis on shake, shack, because whew, the shakes are good. They know what they're doing with the shakes.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Yeah, I got their black and white. Again, shared it with Tina, but their black and white shake is really, really. good yeah that's kind of our rule now if there's a shake involved we share that shit because i'm i avoid the i void the shug but occasionally i'll have like a little treat and it'll be like all right do i eat a whole 20 ounce freaking gob of ice cream or do i split it with my good wife and the answer is that right yep i split it with uh juliana margolese all right moving on uh hey i got some some follow-ups from some listeners here yeah good i love that we talked about clarification yeah i love clarification and the the deal with orange theory
Starting point is 00:12:44 was kind of flummoxing. I still don't really understand why that place is so expensive, but we got an answer potentially to that from Jeremy who sent this email in. He says, you guys were talking last week
Starting point is 00:12:54 about orange theory and wondering how it worked. My wife and I had memberships about a year ago so I thought I could help. The idea behind orange theory is that you do group workouts where your heart rate
Starting point is 00:13:04 is being monitored the whole time. There are different colors given based on your heart rate level, blue, green, orange, and red. Orange is when your heart rate is about 80 to 90% of what is considered safe based off your age and weight. The theory is, here's the orange theory.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Gotcha, yeah. Is that during a 45-minute workout, your heart rate is orange for 15 minutes. You will continue to burn calories for a few hours after the workout. The parts, yeah, so that's interesting, right? I just thought it was like a cornball name, like the fruit or something, like orange theory. It says, let's see, your heart rate is orange for 15 minutes. Okay. The parts we liked were the community aspect. You see the same people most days and the coaches leading the classes get to know you. The classes are very effective. We were in really great shape. But like you mentioned, the classes are also crazy expensive. We couldn't afford to keep going even though we liked it. They also charge you for their proprietary heart monitor, 150 bucks for a thing that is probably 25 bucks, he says. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Says and charge you if you sign up for, but miss a class. So you get charged whether you miss one or not. So it's like going to. you're telling your dentist an hour before you're not coming. They're still going to charge it. They combined with the fact that their routines eventually become repetitive and stale let us to go buy a gym membership to do the same exercises there. I don't know how anyone that isn't rich justifies a membership there. It's great for anyone that needs extra motivation, but it costs as much as a month, sorry, as much monthly as a car, says Jeremy. Wow. Yeah, that's expensive.
Starting point is 00:14:36 I think that's the trick, though, maybe. You go get a taste of it. And then if you've got the wherewithal to like stick to. it you just go do the same thing on your own yeah exactly um when you buy that device do you you get to keep that device right but it's proprietary so you can't like pair it with your phone and then go to your own gym and say all right look i'm in the orange zone kind of thing oh good point they probably well actually you probably just mimic it with your with your watch or something right yeah i i have a um a wahu it's really called a wahu it's a wahu um heart rate monitor and
Starting point is 00:15:11 cadence monitor and the cadence monitor goes on my shoe my bike shoe and then i can wear the heart monitor around obviously around my chest and then that will that will do the same thing it's kind of dumb that even though it's bluetooth i can't make my phone pair with Strava or whatever the app is that i was using GPS my ride or something that would show me like it would basically give me a screen while i'm writing on my phone showing me what my cadence is so it's like all right you want to pedal, keep consistent with the pedaling, and monitor the heart rate, monitor your speed, your elevation, that sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Interesting. I'm looking at them now. These look, so one is a strap around your chest, the other is a wrist one, eh? You have to use them together, or there's separate products, it looks like? Separate. I just, I just have the chest one. Yeah. Okay. That's cool. Yeah. Wahoo, literally, wahoo. Wahoo! Wahoo! Woohoo!
Starting point is 00:16:11 It's the Blur officially backs this product. That's right, exactly. I guess they're more woo-hoo. That's woo-hoo, but yeah. But, yeah, it'd be nice if they had like a, you know, if I could just use my phone or my watch, which is already monitoring my heart rate, and have it talk to this app.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Separately, I could just look down, because I'll use my, I'll use my outdoor workout to close my rings, all that sort of thing. So Strava will be monitoring my ride, and then my watch will separately be monitoring my ride so I can fill my stripes. Oh. So getting double the tracking, but have it just do one. One is fine.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Yeah, do one. Although I guess this is a way for you to compare and see which one's more accurate. That's true. And it really is just a matter of wanting to have my rings closed. It's so dumb. Like they've turned that whole ring thing into a game. Yeah, that's why it works. I think people like the gamification of their fitness.
Starting point is 00:17:08 We've got another note here from Eric Valdez, but he says it's pronounced Valdez, like the... No, he doesn't. He says it's not like the Exxon oil spill now. Oh, I thought he said it was like it. There it is in the PS. You're right. Anyway, he says, hello, stream, oh, morning hosts. I'm jealous that you have Buckees so close. Well, I don't know what Ryan does. They are only one of the primary retailers of a shirt brand called, I guess that's results. No, it's Roosevelt. You know what's funny? I do the same thing. It looks like results. If I glance, well, it's a V instead of a U.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Yeah, so it's R-SV-L-T-S. So, Roosevelt, so that makes sense. Rosevelt. I know you guys. I've done that too, where I glance at it and say, oh, results shirts. But even though in my head, I know they're Roosevelt. It looks like one of those bad URLs, you know, Flickr kind of thing. Flick, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Anyway, he says, I know you guys like the Hawaiian shirt styles, but this brand is all about pop culture with Flair. My wife sent me a Star Wars themed shirt from them during a previous enjoyment, or deployment, and I got hooked, a previous enjoyment. And I got hooked on it. I urge you to give them a look. I think it's right up your alley, unlike the Thanos plug that Brian is producing. Up your alley, get it.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Up your alley. P.S., my last name is not like the Exxon oil spill tanker, but Exxon happens to be my call sign in the Air Force. Cheers Eric Valdez in Mountain View, California. So they call him Exxon. They call him Exxon, which is really funny, but they call him Exxon Valdez instead of Exxon Valdez. That's cool.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Yeah, I wear those Roosevelt shirts all the time here. I've got a little grogoo chasing frogs one. I've got a stitch one. I've got the Spider-Man, the meme of him, all the Spider-Men pointing to each other. That's cool. I want these. How do you get these?
Starting point is 00:18:50 Can I get them somewhere else besides going to a Buckees? Yeah, you can buy them online at roosevelt's.com. All right, here we go. Oh, yeah. Oh, they got it. Yeah, this is. Oh, my gosh, Brian. This place is made for you.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Look at all this shit. Yeah, it totally is. I mean, I've got a few of the, like, a couple of their Disney things. They were, they had a, uh, a big presence at the, um, at D23 when I went out there and ended up buying two or three of their shirts. They're, you know, they're, they're, they're, they're not cheap, but they're also not, you know, you're getting a really nicely made shirt, a really nice, uh, um, yeah, they look good. A really nice fabric and stuff, yeah. Ooh, 70 bucks for this. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. It's a little pricey, but if they're good, then, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:33 it's worth what you do, I guess. Wow, these are, they got a lot of selection. here that's awesome i'd never heard of these guys how is that possible it feels like i should have heard of this that is crazy yeah oh my god they've got oh shoot i might need to pick up this uh x-men savage land uh do they have that in a button up as well as a polo they've got the x-men 97 oh the corner box brigade oh look at these damn it this is uh oh this is going to be a problem brian's got probably brian's going to spend some money we're going to have an issue that 97 thing would be very cool in a hoodie or something. I don't know if they do.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Yeah, they might make that. Let's see. X-Men, the Logan Kid, Dad had. Oh, this one I saw at, I'll give you a link. I saw this one at, God, where did I see it? And I said, I told Tina that I want this one for Father's Day. It's the, it's like, oh, I saw it at the pop-up art exhibit that I went to from my niece a few a couple months ago
Starting point is 00:20:39 oh yeah but look at that it's all sentinels and like they're getting attacked by all different X-Men but it's all X-Men 97 style I love it isn't that cool look at this chat yeah I'm a I'm a sentinel freak I love the sentinels I do too yeah
Starting point is 00:20:55 they're so stupid and great they really are yeah they're just great well all right then this is fantastic thank you for that Jeremy and Semphrefy or whatever you say whatever you say in the Air Force.
Starting point is 00:21:10 I don't know what you say. Derek, by the way, not Jeremy. Oh, what did I? Oh, I mixed him up. The guy before you was Jeremy. Thank you for your email as well, Jeremy. Thanks for your orange theory. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Yeah, we appreciate it. Eric, sorry. Here's one final thing on whales. This is from a, let's see, who is this. This is from Jody from Iowa. Who says, regarding the cruise ship versus whale, the one where the cruise ship had hit a whale
Starting point is 00:21:34 and then drug it all the way to shore and there was a big investigation and all that. Says, was in the Navy, you got a lot of military folks today, was in the Navy on an L-H-A, I don't know what that means, large, habitual...
Starting point is 00:21:46 Hadron. Anus, I don't know. On an L-H-A. Large, happy anus. I don't know. I don't know what that is. Anyway, he said in some decent seas, we hit a whale,
Starting point is 00:22:01 didn't even feel it or know it until we saw the blood trail behind the ship. Bridge called and all stopped to investigate the bloody mess, and let me tell you, don't care how big the ship is, going 15 knots, you don't stop on a dime or a football field, for that matter, on the stories to share from being in the Navy as a parachute rigor. Or, oh, the stories to share. Oh, the stories to share.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Yeah. So that's a good point. We were talking, I think it was Jeff that wrote it and said, they're very maneuverable, but that's when they're slow or stopped. That's what I'm slow. Cruise ships probably have a different situation, right? Right. I don't know how big the ship is.
Starting point is 00:22:40 Ambassador Romas says maybe landing helicopter assault. Oh, which is interesting. Okay. Sure. You could see that, right? A ship with a bunch of helicopter pads on it and stuff like that? Exactly, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:52 But so I don't know. And I don't know if cruise ships are going 15 knots or what their usual speed is. but do you think Elasterating humpback annihilator That kind of is the There it is right there That's the Sure 15 knots
Starting point is 00:23:09 I don't know what that compares to On miles per hour Or kilometers per hour I wonder Hold on knots to miles I can do the math here So if we have 15 knots That equals 17.26 miles per hour
Starting point is 00:23:24 It's not too fast Not too fast no But less renewable in a tight position I guess something's wrong with Google, by the way. I went to Google earlier, and I searched for something about hydration. We're trying these, like, I told you about we're trying this powder stuff in the mornings that's, like, it's supposed to be good for you, ginseng, blah, blah, blah, crap, but it's also loaded with caffeine. So it wakes me up in the morning and I'm not a coffee drinker, so it's a good way for me to kind of, you know, get all whatever had it this morning.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Anyway, I went to Google just to do like a search for something. And you know how they sometimes will have helpful information in a paragraph before you get to any actual results? AI generated one that usually has highlighted text, basically, that's your question. And this one said something about how much to drink a day. And it inserted this thing that says, so make sure you drink plenty of urine in the day. It's basically you're going off to your previous search results, Scott. I guess so. Yeah, maybe.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Maybe I need to check my history. But yeah, like I just, every time I go to Google.com and, more. I feel like I'm getting weird info, so I kind of quit using it. That's hilarious. I hope you, I'm sure you screenshot at that and put it on Twitter or something, right? No, I should have. I didn't think about it. But it's show content, so here it is. Check this out. All right, we talked about whales. Let's get to the news. We have news. I know what I was going to say. If you guys want to send in your own thoughts, comments, feelings about anything we talk about on the show, you can send that to 801-47-1062. Or if you'd rather email us, you certainly can do that. That's the morning stream at gmail.com.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Time for the news. Brought to you by Brought to you by Paranoid billionaire, afraid of immigrant. All right. What do you think this movie is? Yeah, so this is a movie, and I'm guessing the immigrant in question is probably like a like an extraterrestrial, like an
Starting point is 00:25:21 alien, because you like to do that sort of thing. So paranoid, billionaire, afraid, of an alien I think the paranoid part is is a little bit of conjecture on the part of this description
Starting point is 00:25:40 I don't think it's 100% accurate for the character it's referring to but in that movie in this movie he is paranoid one of the Superman movies right yeah so it's the Batman versus Superman
Starting point is 00:25:55 the You say that name? So it's not Lex Luthor. It's Bruce Wayne is the paranoid billionaire. Yeah, because he's all freaked out until he finds out his mom has the same name as his mom. And then everything's fine. Very good. Yeah, very good.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Let's talk about Tesla there in the news. Tesla software ended up having a glitch and trapped a TikToker inside a 115 degree car for an extended period of time. Intentional. It feels like it might be a feature on a buck. You get rid of these TikTokers by trapping them inside 115 degree cars. There you go. TikToker locked inside of her Tesla Model 3 for, yeah, Model 3 for 40 minutes in the hot sun while it was installing a software update. And as of this writing, her video has over 10.7 million plays.
Starting point is 00:26:44 We don't care so much about that. Before you go jump into conclusions about her ineptitude, Brianna Janelle was actually following the rules laid out by Tesla. According to the Tesla owner's manual, quote, this is right out of the book. vehicle functions including some safety systems and opening or closing the doors or windows may be limited or disabled when installation is in progress and you could damage the vehicle so it's like don't turn off your computer while this update is happening it's same idea you want to brick you don't want to brick your car because you interrupt it during a but it's kind of a bizarre thing like like opening a door you should you should not affect installing software totally restarting your car for sure I understand that and that sort of thing but oh gosh yeah that's a bit much and this is a car i was i was actually in a model three this week because i tell you guys the story about that happened with windy so windy my sister windy was here for the wedding right all last week and we had a great time together my sister hates hates elon musk hates yeah right right for a whole ton of litany of reasons
Starting point is 00:27:48 we're not going to get into those but but also she's she feels like uh like tesla's she likes electric car She likes the concept of let's be less dependent on oil and all that. But she also doesn't like some of the, you know, like the hoity-toidiness of Tesla buying. Okay. She'd rather it be like, hey, everyone should have electric cars, not just rich people who want fancy gadgets and things like that. Sure. So anyway, it's a whole thing. Not really part of the story.
Starting point is 00:28:17 But the irony of it is on what day was it? Saturday, Sunday. Saturday? Anyway, she needed, she thought she had her. niece's car to drive all that day from my sister misha was going to let her borrow her niece's car who's out on her honeymoon that's who the wedding was for so her car's there she's like sure i'll use i'll use jade's car she goes to start up jade's car the it's a kia um not soul what's what's the suv they have an SUV that's rento serento that's it uh the sorrento requires a key fob combo
Starting point is 00:28:50 to start it so you you have to have the key fob working in order to even hit the button and have it go. I guess that's true of a lot of cars. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I guess my Volkswagen's the same way. I just didn't think about it this way. Anyway, oh, by the way, do all key fobs, sorry, I hate to be all over the place. Do all key fobs let you yank out a
Starting point is 00:29:09 physical key if you need it for something? Have you seen that? I don't know. Yeah, I don't think Tina's does. Tina has the proximity key fob, and I don't know if there is a key inside. Hers did, but we couldn't figure out where to stick it is a problem.
Starting point is 00:29:25 yeah that's a really good point like i don't know where because usually those things just have a button a push button and i don't know what you would do with an actual physical key i'm sure there was a hole somewhere in that car we just were not aware of it and we were in a hurry so we had a hurry and so it was like oh crap what are we going to do and jade has with her the good key fob this is the old dead battery key fob so so people people are saying like either for the glove compartment or the center console to lock it so like if you if you are uh valet parking it got it um and you want to give them the key fob you want to like lock things even though they can still just pull the key out and unlock it if you're given the whole key fob right so in this case we wouldn't we were screwed either way
Starting point is 00:30:07 there was that would that wasn't going to do us any good no it was not going to help you yeah so we got out of that car and we're like what are we going to do and ken goes well you know what just borrow my car and his car is a tesla model three and and i'm like oh cool it would be fun to ride in that let's do it and when do you wanted to drive so she says okay and she's like I could tell she was just like nervous and anyway we get in this car and she is out of her element dude
Starting point is 00:30:30 it is like because you know how they you've driven an electric car before they feel different they're just not the same like you press gas and you move forward very quickly but you let off the gas and you kind of slow quickly it's like this weird hard to explain but if you have never driven it it's really hard to explain if you have you know exactly what
Starting point is 00:30:48 we're talking about there's enough that that feedback that almost haptic feedback that you get with a with a gas car that like you kind of feel it in your foot and you don't feel it an electric car yeah there's so much that's different the sound of it all of it's so weird anyway we got used to it and it was fine but she just felt like she was it's like i don't know how to compare it's like think of a movie where uh you it's like it's like if kirk and a clingon got stuck in an elevator uh-huh you just have to deal with it right you have to to drive this car that you have a stand against and the guy who made it you hate and she just
Starting point is 00:31:26 had to do it she just had to live with it enemy enemy mind yeah yeah yeah dude oh that movie but it's like uh anyway the point of it was my whole point was um uh all we could think of was oh to go forward i'd never notice this before it's a it's a finger swipe on the screen and to go back to go to reverse it's a finger swipe down that's funky there's no this just give me a stick of something give me i don't i'm not asking for a manual but give me like a oh that's weird in the time that i drove my so my dad when they came out here rented a Hyundai ionic five which is one of the ones i'm considering i'm looking at a at a Tesla model why with dual motor because i need the extra weight in the back for snow when we get snow i want some
Starting point is 00:32:12 extra yeah um for sure or Hyundai ionic five uh also like the Volkswagen id4 those are the three but I never ever put it in reverse and I did not know that that was how you did that that's kind of weird and I assume they probably all do this I don't know because really it's just an on or off kind of one and zero binary choice it's not a it's not a mechanical thing
Starting point is 00:32:35 but boy that was weird and she would like reach down she's like fumbling around for a thing I'm like no no remember it's the screen and she's oh yeah shit slide it down it's just weird it's like just a phone swipe what if you have gloves on that don't don't have the little
Starting point is 00:32:51 what do they call it at where you get the little mesh that lets you our phones all use it what's it called something touch haptic not haptic I know that's the thing that's stuck in my head too something touch
Starting point is 00:33:10 conductive conductive touch that's it capacitive that's it capacity capacity so if you're using the wrong kind of gloves yeah you'd have to oh shit and then take them off and you know do it I guess yeah yeah well anyway it was pretty funny but uh anyway back to the story yeah according to the Tesla's owner manual it just says you cannot get out while this is happening or you can't get in it while it's happening either way yeah can't open the door or the window
Starting point is 00:33:36 while this is going on says she chose to heed the warning did not attempt to open her doors or windows during the installation process for fear of damaging her vehicle but this seems like a very dangerous oversight on Tesla's part as she was stuck inside during it all the dormant mechanisms on the Model 3 and Y are electrically operated and under normal circumstances are open from the inside by using a simple button to unlash the door. Should the vehicle have no power though, these models
Starting point is 00:34:00 do not have auxiliary manual cable release levers or anything like that. So you're stuck, you're just in there. And if you're in like a town like, I don't know, Phoenix or something. Yeah. You're toast, man. And the three has that... Literally. Yeah, you're literally toast. And the three,
Starting point is 00:34:16 the Model 3 has that high... Yeah, the glass, the glass sunroof or moonroof, I guess when it's full length, it's a moonroof, right? Yeah, I think that's what they call it. And it's also, but it's tinted, but it's still in 120 degree weather. I mean, you're just, you're asking for trouble.
Starting point is 00:34:32 She's okay, though. Yeah. She stuck it out. She came out all sweaty and gross, but, you know, be careful, I guess, people, when you're updating your car. Yeah. It sounds so weird. It's so weird.
Starting point is 00:34:44 It really is. Yeah. When you're updating your car. It should be set to only do updates. at like four in the morning, like my Mac. Yeah. I knew my updates in the middle of the night. My TiVo could do it, right?
Starting point is 00:34:56 I could set my TiVo to only update at three in the morning. And so my Tesla should have the same deal. The new rumor is that Apple, you know, they scrapped their car plans. Yeah. But it turns out they may not have. What they've done perhaps is they may just buy Rivian and then integrate everything they're working on. I'd be down with that.
Starting point is 00:35:16 I think those Rivians are cool. They are really cool. I would totally be down for. that too. Yeah, rivians are great. It might be cheaper than starting your own car. You just take the one that's already going and, you know. Smart. Yeah. I'd be very curious about those. Apple did it with operating systems. They can do it with, no, I'm just kidding.
Starting point is 00:35:35 I mean, they kind of did. They took Unix and turned it into OS10. So there you go. It doesn't look much like it anymore, but the underpinnings are still there. All right. A judge has finally made, boy, this is important news. We cannot miss this one. so I'm glad we got time for it. A judge has ruled, finally, that tacos, and as a result, burritos also, are sandwiches, okay? Okay. Wait, did he, did you, are you extrapolating the burrito thing, or did they also say that? Because they mentioned it later, they mentioned it.
Starting point is 00:36:06 It is in the article. Yeah, they mentioned it a little bit later, but a judge ruled, this is an Indiana judge, ruled the tacos are Mexican-style sandwiches. Sure. In an entrepreneur's case, challenging zoning laws restricting certain. restaurant activities. An Indiana judge has settled an argument that may silence long-running foodie debates
Starting point is 00:36:26 and open up fresh territory for small restaurants that are blocked by zoning laws from desirable locations. The word from Fort Wayne Superior Court Judge Craig J. Bobbe. Bobay. It's B-O-B-A-Y. I assume it's Bobay. It could be.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Oh, it could be Bobay. Yeah, that's true. Bobeye. Kind of prefer Bobet. I do, too. Yeah. My name is Craig Kobe. I'll be your judge. He says it's final. Taco is a sandwich and the legal precedent if the legal precedent spreads
Starting point is 00:36:57 its influence across the state and country, many restaurant owners may end up having to change their menus or how they think about food. If Bobay's taco call isn't enough to chew on, he also ruled that burritos or sandwiches too. What? So this was a whole
Starting point is 00:37:14 thing because the zoning issue required that restaurants need to serve sandwiches in this area or something about that like staying open past a certain time or it's kind of like that weird what was it Venice or Milan that had the no takeout after a certain time in this area kind of thing right right but so this little Fort Wayne zoning area said that yep it has to be a sandwich style restaurant uh to qualify to be in this area there we go let's see city planning commission said rules pertaining to the site prohibit fast food business from operating on it.
Starting point is 00:37:54 The exception, reports noted, was for an existing sandwich bar-style restaurant whose primary business is to sell made-to-order sandwiches. See? Now it opens up the thing wide. It even goes on here and say, why stop there? In this ruling, if it creates precedent, that means hot dogs are sandwiches. Yeah, yeah. It means bond meat. Well, I already felt like bond me is worth of sandwiches.
Starting point is 00:38:16 I really feel like bond me is a sandwich. What else? Let's see. How about Indian non-wraps or Greek Euros, it says? Oh, sure. Yeah, that makes sense. I never thought of a euro is a, it's more like a Greek taco, but now that tacos are a sandwich, well, Greek taco, Greek sandwich, I guess.
Starting point is 00:38:32 Anyway, says food businesses won't have to rush out and reprint their menus or shuffle their BLTs, Hogi, subs, or po-boys in the soft-shelled, or sorry, in with the soft-shelled tacos and chimichongas if they want to stay legal. So, in theory, if there's a challenge in local zoning laws in different states, those restaurants will have to literally do this. They'll have to go into their menus and create a sandwich heading that now includes all this other shit. So a place could really, you know, decide, well, we sell a chicken parmesan. Let's just wrap it into tortilla and call it a sandwich.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Yeah. And if you're a Chinese restaurant and you sell egg rolls, aren't those tiny burritos, essentially sandwich? Oh, interesting. See, things get real weird. Certainly the little bushoe pancake things are... Yeah. Yeah, that would qualify because those are basically a tacos. What about crab rangoons?
Starting point is 00:39:27 What about those? Those are kind of sandwiches, sort of. A little deep-fried little balls of awesome is what they are. Oh, my gosh, they sound good. Lettuce wraps, bio cows? Yeah. Well, I mean, I think those already fall. Like, you get Jimmy John's lets you do the Unwitch,
Starting point is 00:39:42 which is basically a lettuce-wrap Jimmy John. What I might get today. That sounds really good. Kim gets those every time we go. She can't do the bread. I'm jealous of her. Yeah. Her bread gives Kim Heartburn no matter where she gets it.
Starting point is 00:39:55 And I wish I was her because I would eat less bread if that was okay. Yeah, Jimmy John's bread is so damn good. I love bread. Yeah. Bread. It's like Oprah says. Yeah, Brett. She loves bread.
Starting point is 00:40:08 She loves bread. She says it. Courtney Cox in the news. Okay. This isn't about her. facial regrets. Something else. Talked about that before. Yeah. Courtney
Starting point is 00:40:20 Cox says she still feels Matthew Perry's presence. Quote, he visits me a lot. Unquote. Now look, I know that she doesn't mean his ghost is there. All right, I know. Could I be any more of a ghost? I'm secretly hoping for that. I'm glad you did it.
Starting point is 00:40:38 Yeah, it'll be nice. It'd be great. In a new interview, Cox opened up about her spirituality and revealed Perry still visits her. Here's what she says. Quote, I still, or I think he's probably one of the funniest human beings in the world. You know, he's just so funny. He is genuinely has a huge heart and obviously struggled.
Starting point is 00:40:55 So I'm thankful I got to work so closely with him for so many years. He visits me a lot. If we believe in that, she says. She also went on to say, also, unfortunately, Matt LeBlanc also still visits him. Yeah. He's creeping around
Starting point is 00:41:10 my house all the time. He visits me a lot. man um this says cox says she still fills parry's presence among other members of her family adding I talk to my mom my dad and matthew I feel like there are a lot of people that are I think that guide us
Starting point is 00:41:26 I do sense yeah I sense Matthews around for sure all right that's fine I would record these conversations if it were me like if I actually let me just say it this way if somebody says to me and this is no shade on Cox okay sure
Starting point is 00:41:41 shade on Cox is a great title someone get on that somebody's yeah somebody's already typing that furiously into the thing yeah i like it um but i and i don't want to i don't want to poo-poo on anybody's wherever they're at it's fine it's for real i don't have a problem with it but i'm saying for me if i was sitting around the house and actually had a conversation with a dead person i would want my phone on so i could capture that and share that with people well of course in the same way that if i said i saw bigfoot but if I don't have photo evidence, what is the point of saying I saw Bigfoot? It's just, show me that you saw Bigfoot or quit saying you saw him or that you see him all the time.
Starting point is 00:42:24 People that claim to go to the Pacific Northwest and see Bigfoot every three months, show me. Give me something. But here's the thing. You'd probably end up with one of those situations where you have the conversation, they're right there. You're totally, oh my God, I'm not imagining this. You're right here talking to me. And you record it with your phone. your side of the conversation is recordable.
Starting point is 00:42:46 You're sitting there saying, wow, is this really, am I really hearing you? I am? Oh my gosh. Wow, this is. The one lapel mic is not working in that scenario. Right. It's like early podcast interviews is what it is.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Yeah. I'd be just like, I guess I wouldn't, if I was hearing voices and having those conversations and it only picked up half of them in my recording, I would not tell people I was having these conversations. because I think maybe something's up with me. I think maybe something's wrong. Right. Right. And I don't want to, again,
Starting point is 00:43:20 no shame to people having mental, you know, auditory or visual hallucinations. It's fine. You do you, have your fun, whatever. I mean, technically it's not fine, but you do you. Yeah, you, I mean, you know, Courtney Cox is not a danger to society. So she's really hearing this. Right. Fine.
Starting point is 00:43:40 But I guess what I'm saying is, is I have my doubts and I would love it when when people make claims like this I part of me goes well then okay where is it then like shown on on some sort of non literal level non tangible non you know like well I believe this is a real kind of level yeah do you feel like you you know when you're making a decision or you're you're alone and you're doing something do you does your you know do you get the influence of your dad to help make a decision or like, oh, what would my dad do in a situation like this? You're, you know, in raising your kids kind of thing, you know, oh, my dad, you know, not necessarily
Starting point is 00:44:21 my dad's in the room and he says I need to discipline you for lying to me. Yeah, no, that's a great question because I do think that their influence is definitely with you, right? There's no getting away from that. And you might even be in a situation where you'll go, what would my parents have done or what would my dad have said? Yeah, exactly. Like where you, not necessarily.
Starting point is 00:44:41 really honestly believe that your relative is saying use the false look but you're really actually saying that but but almost guiding you like you're in kind of a joking way like my stepdad uh barney you know didn't um didn't have a lot of time where i lived in the house with them because they got married when i was like 11 or 12 right i moved out when i was 17 got kicked out when i was 17 um that true i didn't know this there's a whole story there we don't know it's not really i mean basically they just said yep when you go off to college you're like when you start college you need to find a place to live good lord so so wow so fortunately uh the institute of art even though they did not have housing or or their own
Starting point is 00:45:28 housing they worked with the local uh denver branch of the colorado university university of colorado and had uh a whole floor of the university of colorado dorms that we lived in Oh, that's cool. That works out. Yeah. But there's still aspects of his pacifism and other things where, like, I'll have the, you know, situation where I'm going to be mad about something. I'm like, you know, Barney would just let this go.
Starting point is 00:45:56 Or Barney's there telling me, just let it go, Brian. Even though I know he's not there, I know that I don't believe in the ghost, don't believe in that sort of thing. And for all that, for all I know, that's what she's saying, you know? Like Courtney Cox is just, this is how she's expressing that exact sentiment. and that's awesome. It's great. People should have that influence in their life.
Starting point is 00:46:13 They should have those feelings. I guess it's when I've had people in my life before say, last night I had a visit from your uncle. He came to my bedside and, well, let me tell you, things aren't okay. Zub, zub, zub, and I'm like, okay. I don't know if I buy this, but okay. Anyway, just bring me some footage, everybody. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Pixir didn't happen. Pixar didn't happen. And even now, even now we can't even say that. I was thinking about that the other day. Like, let's say, you know, some celebrity, let's say Morgan Freeman.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Remember we had that thing where Morgan Freeman listened to our show or something, right? Like, there was a... Oh, right. We had a listener who took photos of him. He's the guy that took all our photos. He owned the store,
Starting point is 00:46:59 and Morgan Freeman came into the store and listened to our show. Oh, that's what it was. It was glasses. He came in for glasses. It was a place that did custom prescription glasses or something. This is the guy that sent me those cool ray bands back
Starting point is 00:47:12 before my eyes went wonky. They don't work anymore. And then he said he came in and he was listening to the show when he came in and asked, what are you listening to and then hung around for a minute and listened? Yeah. That's one of those stories that I love that story,
Starting point is 00:47:24 but I don't have proof. Right, exactly. And now we couldn't even say, well, here's a photo of Morgan Freeman listening to our show. Could be AI generated. How do we not know, you know, you don't know anymore? Or could just be a picture of Morgan Freeman
Starting point is 00:47:36 and listen to to nothing. There's no proof he listened to our show. Right. Exactly. He was just in the store, yeah. I've got that Dave Batista image where he's holding a printed version of the drawing I did of him. Oh, right. Yeah. I know it's real because the guy who sent it to me worked there and it was all real, but you could easily fake to tell everyone that's fake. And it was before I got to the level it is now. Now we just have to be skeptics on everything we see. Yeah. Even back then, you could have photoshopped it easy. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:48:02 Would have been no problem. Batista holding up a picture of just a photo of Groot. something or something. Yeah, it could have been anything. Could have been anything. So I guess the bottom line is, uh, just, you know, Courtney Cox, it's fine. Do whatever you want. Yeah, it's fine. If you're visited by, uh, Matthew Perry, that's cool. But you're probably not getting visited by the ghost of, uh, Gunther, the guy who played Gunther. That's exactly. He's not there. No, he's, he's haunting, uh, Jennifer Aniston. That's what he does. Uh, Ben Affleck has skipped, speaking, well, staying in Hollywood here for a minute.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Ben Affleck, uh, there's rumors floating around that him and Jennifer Lopez are once again on the rocks. Oh, no. Yep. He found out her mother's name is not Martha, and it's very upset. No, he called her Jennifer Garner, and she says, What made you say that name? You imagine, dude?
Starting point is 00:48:56 Except I don't know when you would say your wife's full name. Oh, Jennifer Garner. What made you say that name? Well, it says here, he has skipped her. premiere after launching Hollywood love tour amid split rumors he skipped her
Starting point is 00:49:14 Atlas movie premiere. I don't know what Atlas is. Do we know what this movie is? I don't know. Let's see here, just real quick. Atlas movie. Based on her movie history, I'd probably skip it too. Oh, here it is. In a bleak-sounding future.
Starting point is 00:49:33 An AI... The sounding future. Yeah, bleak-sounding future. an AI soldier has determined the only way to end war is to end humanity. Oh, that sounds like shit. There's some interesting people in it, though. Sterling K. Brown, Mark Strong, love him. Simulhu, from your Sean Chi's in there. All right, maybe it's all right.
Starting point is 00:49:56 I shouldn't judge. I have no idea. I don't even know what this is. But anyway, the point is he didn't go, and that's helped prod rumors forward that he's maybe on the outs. She was wearing her wedding band, however, at the Egyptian theater
Starting point is 00:50:10 there in Hollywood at the red carpet event. Jennifer looked stunning in a white tube top, floor-length black skirt, and her hair pulled back in a tight bun. She accessed her... Yeah. Guess when you'll be able to watch this, Scott. Friday on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:50:25 Oh, shit. It's a Netflix original, is it? It's... I mean, I guess there was a theatrical premiere so they could be in in Oscar contention for Oscar
Starting point is 00:50:37 I can't even say that without laughing but yeah then it's going to be on Netflix on Friday well they let's see
Starting point is 00:50:46 the couple attended a thing on May 16 to support their kids but let's see they've been doing everything separate they've not been seen
Starting point is 00:50:55 together for 47 days oh my gosh somebody called Jennifer Garner you're saying there's a chance exactly I think this is a non-event and
Starting point is 00:51:06 he'll be there for the Friday Netflix premiere at home on Netflix. That's right. I just love that whenever these two are doing something dumb, it keeps the spotlight off of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston and what's her beak that he's not with anymore either. Angelina Jolie. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:51:22 Yep, look that. Snap. You like this? Nice little snap. It's like, I feel like you need to do some movie reviews on Living Color. Two snaps in a circle. um so all right looking at the description of this thing uh randy if you're listening randy deluxe uh let's put this on the list let's watch it for film sack you know early in its in its actual

Starting point is 00:58:17 Yeah. All right. Travis. That's what we're looking for. TV's Travis. There he is. All right. We're going to add him to the call. We're going to have a little fun. It's our turn to have the tables turned and have us play a game. I guess mostly Brian, because I always play. But Brian, I never used to play. Yeah, this is the tables on me. My table. And where were we last on our, um... I think you've won...
Starting point is 00:58:40 Am I ahead by like one? I think so. Yeah, I can't remember. I know, I think Travis actually does have a tally that he's keeping. So it's a chance to take it even, you know, to get us up. Or a chance for you to increase your lead. So he is not answering. However, I think he's on the line.
Starting point is 00:58:59 We did have a suggestion to his rule change, which I think he did for a little while. We just need to get back to it. But we'll talk about that when he gets on the air. Oh, that's right. I don't remember what it was, though. It was something. So would you make you make. your bid, like let's say, you say, all right, I can do that in three names, and I say, I'll do that
Starting point is 00:59:16 in two. And if I miss it, you should get your, you should get the third name because that was your bid, as opposed to still having to do it in two names. Ah, okay. Yeah, I like that. I like that a lot. I will also solve some, some issues there. Um, he's not answering. Well, we have to have a Travis in order to be able to do this. Yeah. Without a Travis, we've got no TV's Travis. Yeah, anybody see, uh, see him in the chat. Has anybody seen Travis? He's online, but he ain't answering. Does he know he's working today?
Starting point is 00:59:44 I confirmed yesterday that he was good. Yeah. Let's see here. Is he saying anything in chat? I don't see him. Hopefully nothing came up serious. Sometimes things do. You know, you never know.
Starting point is 00:59:57 That's all right. Yep. Oh, Rainbow Bright, he is much taller than any of us thought. We all, we were all surprised by the height of TV's Travis. Yes, we were. That dude is a monster. He's like, you know, what he is. He's the...
Starting point is 01:00:11 He's Mick Fleetwood. Yeah. Literally, Mick Fleetwood. Or, you know, maybe even like every once in a while see Kevin Durand with other actors, and I realize... Oh, yeah. That dude's enormous. He is. Yeah. It's kind of funny that they made him be the blob
Starting point is 01:00:27 because he is so tall and lanky. It almost doesn't work for being a little short blobby guy for the... For the deal. I love that he's having a moment. That guy's great. I do, too. Yeah, I need to watch that, Annabel. You'll like it.
Starting point is 01:00:42 It's a real, you'll have to get back to me on the Dan Stevens part, whether or not I'm up in the night on whether Dan Stevens is good in it. He's been out there for his last few roles. Yeah. He's good. I mean, don't get me wrong. I love seeing him in things. It's just in this one, it was such a, I don't want to give anything away.
Starting point is 01:01:05 But it's a little. Is he over the top? Is he? Yes, it's over the top in a way that I just. just i guess i'm just not used to from him and it just threw me i don't know threw me but it was it was fun uh well no answer from travis i don't know what that means except uh and i just texted him as well no answer there uh so what we'll do uh oh people lost power in the storms last night they're saying oh now he's typing he says bob be right there he says bob be right there all right
Starting point is 01:01:35 so I'm going to ring him again. Maybe he's back to life, back to reality. Ba! Hope it goes gravity. We got, Van got a shirt, a TLC shirt from his mom. She found it at some secondhand store. Like the band TLC, like, no scrubs. Like one eye, Lisa one eye, or what is it?
Starting point is 01:01:55 Whatever it is. Left eye Lopez. I still do that. So last night I taught him. T-Bahs, Chili, and. Lisa Left Eye Lopez or Lisa, yeah, Left-Ey Lopez. I taught him the Waterfalls song. Don't go chase him waterfalls, yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:12 He didn't quite understand what the significance was or if it mattered, but he sat there and listened to me. There's Travis. Now we're good. Let's do this right here. Where's this thing? This is Travis, and you'll do well to listen carefully to what he has to say. Hi, Travis.
Starting point is 01:02:26 Everything all right on your end? You good? Oh, yeah, everything's fine. I just worked decided it wanted to be, you know, dumb this morning. Of all mornings. Of all mornings. Well, that's fine. I'm glad it wasn't anything bad.
Starting point is 01:02:38 Somebody said the area you live in may have had a bunch of power outages and storms and stuff. You guys good? Oh, there were storms in the area, but they didn't affect me. Oh, good. Well, leave Travis alone. We always say to the storms. I look in the sky. Chris, you were needing an actual paycheck.
Starting point is 01:02:52 That's right, damn it. Well, it's good to have you here, Travis. It's time for you to play a game with us. And I always enjoy these. Let's see how we do. I'm currently ahead by one of our sessions. So, yeah, do you have your thing? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:06 So we'll see if we can change that today and get it tied up. I don't know how this is going to go. Maybe I'll extend my lead. I don't know. You might extend your lead, yeah. Yeah, so Travis, take it away. What are we doing? Yeah, so we're going to play our monthly quiz.
Starting point is 01:03:20 You're going to bet on how many clues you need in order to get the win here. So what we're going to start off with this month is our first round is going to be, we're going to name an actor. and we're going to name an actor based on characters that they have played. Names of characters. Okay. And by the way, I don't know if you heard me talking about this earlier, but we had somebody bring up a suggestion about on the bidding.
Starting point is 01:03:45 Like, let's say Scott says three characters, and then I say, I can do it in two, and then I miss it. Scott should maybe get that third character from his bid. Does that make sense? Oh, yeah. No, that does. That's how that worked. I like that.
Starting point is 01:04:01 We'll do that today if, yeah. hit that, well, we should do that. I like that idea a lot. As long as you're okay with it. We're going to nail all of our questions, so we're going to, there's an acting of these steals. Yeah, we don't need any of that. Come on. All right, characters. Okay. All right. So, Brian, you're going to start the bidding on number of characters
Starting point is 01:04:16 that this actor has played. Okay. That you think you can name. I will, actually, I will start with three. Okay. Oh, the temptation to Well, now that I know I have this option to steal Ah, shit. You know what, I'm going to try to do it in two.
Starting point is 01:04:40 You're going to try to do it in two, all right. Name that actor. Okay. Okay. So here's a couple of characters that he played General Ed Fenwick and Steve Rubel. The Fenwick is very familiar. It's really familiar in me too.
Starting point is 01:04:57 Phenic? Ed Fenick. Um, uh, I guess I don't have all day to answer. Um, all right. Let me just,
Starting point is 01:05:11 I guess I'll just guess. Um, Ed Fenick. Um, shit. You didn't need an answer. Uh, toss a name up.
Starting point is 01:05:24 Uh, I'll stay with Ed. Ed Harris. Nope, incorrect. Exactly what I would have guessed to if you would have put me on the spot. I don't know. All right, Brian, here you go. You get your third because you initially bet three.
Starting point is 01:05:40 Charlie McKenzie. Charlie McKenzie. Is that, uh, I'm probably wrong. Tom Hanks? Ew! Incorrect. Okay. Can I guess it even though it's no points?
Starting point is 01:05:55 Sure. Yeah, you can guess. I think it just hit me. That last one, that's Mike Myers. That is Mike Myers, correct. Oh, shit. That's from Inglorious Bastards, the weird little... Yep, his little cameo in Glorious Bastards is General Ed Fennick.
Starting point is 01:06:10 It's a very short role. Yes. Steve Rubel was from 54. Okay. Charlie McKenzie, so I married an axe murderer. We also had a couple more that I had was The Cat from The Cat in the Hat. Oh, God, okay. And finally, Wayne Campbell and Dr. Evil. I would have needed, I think I might have needed Wayne Campbell.
Starting point is 01:06:38 Because the cat would have, you know, there would have been somebody like, oh, well, could it be Bill Murray who did Garfield's voice and, or not Garfield. Was it Garfield's voice? Bill Murray did Garfield's voice. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. On a, on a, you would have said Garfield. You wouldn't have said the cat. Right.
Starting point is 01:06:55 Right. That new Garfield getting some real sour reviews, by the way. People do not, like, not happy one. Anyway. Yeah. Anybody surprised out there? Listen, I'm going to let Garfield live in the comic strips and in the old cartoon show. All right.
Starting point is 01:07:08 And I'm good there. Good deal. As far as I'm concerned, when I think of Lorenzo or Garfield's voice, I think of Lorenzo music. Oh, yeah. Very good. Very good point. All right. So nobody takes round one.
Starting point is 01:07:19 So now we're on to round two. This is a TV show. And you're going to guess based on cast members. of this TV show. And Scott, you get to start the bidding for this one. All right. Cast members of a television program. Let's do this in three.
Starting point is 01:07:36 Three? All right. He's making it tough. He's making it tough. I'll go two. Name that television show. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 01:07:50 All right. Here are your two cast members. Corbin Bernson? Shit. Kurt Fuller. Okay. Well, I believe Corbyn Brinson was in L.A. Law. Was it L.A. law?
Starting point is 01:08:05 Is that your answer? That's going to be my answer, L.A. Law. Incorrect. Yeah, okay. Take your third. Scott, you get one more if you want it. I want one more. Okay.
Starting point is 01:08:19 Timothy Amundsen. That didn't really help. were you thinking LA law as well? Am I thinking of the right thing? Oh, yeah, he was definitely in L.A. law. My first answer would have been that. But since we know it isn't, I'm going to say, I feel like this is a trick one.
Starting point is 01:08:39 This isn't going to be right. I'm going to say Star Trek the next generation. He was Q's. Incorrect. Other Q. Ah, it's not 30-something, is it? No, he wasn't in that, I think. No, it is also not 30-something.
Starting point is 01:08:53 something. Some other cast members in this show include Maggie Lawson. Okay. Dole Hill. Oh. Oh, it's Syke. Syke. Shike. Yep. James Rode Rodriguez. I thought he, I forgot he was in Syke. Oh, he's, I love his character in Syke. He's
Starting point is 01:09:12 absolutely perfect to play Henry Spencer, Sean's dad. Sykes, awesome. Yeah, Sykes's awesome. God, I need to go back and finish that show. Really do. Love it. I'm like, this close to doing a, like, a fourth rewatch of that series. I love it that much. I've watched the whole series
Starting point is 01:09:29 multiple times, and I've watched the three movies that they've made once. And those are really good, too. All right. Okay. Well, we're 0 for two. A thousand, aren't we? Yeah. We're moving on to round three, which is our musical round.
Starting point is 01:09:45 Oh, good. So, Brian, you get to start the bidding on the song. I have clips ranging from two to ten seconds in two second increments so two four six eight and ten seconds nice that makes it easy all right I'll um I will let's say six seconds six seconds six seconds all right oh geez these are this is one I always struggle with I'll try I'll try in five it's in two oh oh sorry sorry you have to do a poor in that case, oh, gosh. You know what?
Starting point is 01:10:25 Name it, Brian. Do it in six. Okay. All right. All right, Brian. Here are your six seconds of the song. Coming at you from KWBZ with the Who and behind blue eyes. Ah, shit.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Correct. Damn it. That is behind blue eyes. Nicely done. Damn it. I still didn't hear it, though. So this is the worst ones for me. I don't know why I struggle with that.
Starting point is 01:10:58 It's just hard. Yeah, at like eight seconds, Roger Daltrey starts singing in here immediately gives it away. I thought that was kind of a fun one. I was getting a guess earlier, but I didn't want to step on any case I was completely wrong. And I was like, oh, I just talked over the part that actually would have given it to me. Right. I expected that to suddenly go, all the leaves are brown. That's the song I thought I was getting.
Starting point is 01:11:19 Oh, yeah, right. because it does begin with the it's almost, it's not quite the same, but that's where my head went. Yeah, that was kind of the hope there was like, maybe it's just ambiguous enough with just the acoustic guitar opening. Nice work, Brian.
Starting point is 01:11:33 Cool, thanks. Okay, round four. Brian's up, one. Scott, you're going to need this one in order to have a shot. All right. We're guessing a movie, and we're also going by characters in that movie. Characters in the movie
Starting point is 01:11:49 Characters in the film All right I'm going to say I can do that in I gotta go for it here Wait a minute Let me get the math right If I said four and Brian said I could do three I could say two
Starting point is 01:12:03 Yeah Correct I could do it I can do it in five Five Okay Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 01:12:16 I can still say three And make you do two But if I miss it, then you get five That's right I will say four I'm not going to go as ballsy Then I'll go three Okay
Starting point is 01:12:32 Okay Yeah, getting a little of the gamesmanship going on Yeah Okay Scott here are your three characters From this movie Got it Grigory Rasputin
Starting point is 01:12:42 Liz Sherman John Myers I'll repeat them one more time Grigory Rasputin Liz Sherman John Myers Oh shit You didn't specify
Starting point is 01:13:07 Anything else about this movie So Nope I'm gonna go with I can't remember the name of it And I don't even think it's right I don't even think it's right Um
Starting point is 01:13:19 Gagori Rasputin Um Um I don't know I think it's that I think it's animated But I cannot remember the name of the movie Ah
Starting point is 01:13:36 Oh that tells me I'm on a I'm on a path here Um What is that called then? I can't think of the name. I guess I have to pass. I can't think of it. Okay.
Starting point is 01:13:52 All right. We're going to take the pass. Brian, you get one more name. I'm going to need it. Yeah. Okay. Trevor Broom, Brutonholm. Trevor Brutonholm.
Starting point is 01:14:04 So the one the name that's getting me is Liz Sherman. That one sounds really familiar. Liz Sherman. I think I got it. Okay. Gregory Resputin Liz Sherman John Myers
Starting point is 01:14:20 and Trevor Broom Brutonholm Oh so it's So Trevor Broom Brum Bruton home Okay Trevor Broom Brum Broom Broom Broom
Starting point is 01:14:31 Broom Broom Um Trevor Broom Brum Broom Um I'm going to play off of Scott thinking it's an animated movie
Starting point is 01:14:43 and say the Iron Giant. Oh, no. That is incorrect. I think I know it. Do I get points if I know this? Yes. Because that's how the rule works now, right? Oh, right.
Starting point is 01:14:57 Because he would have, so we go back to his original, what was his original wager was? Five. Five? So yeah, I guess he gets a fifth. Yeah. What's my fifth? If you want the fifth one, you can have that.
Starting point is 01:15:08 I'll take the fifth. Abe Sapien. I'll take the fifth. Oh, Abe Sampian. Capian. Yep. Oh, shit. Then it's, uh, it's, uh, it's, uh, it's, uh, it's, it's, uh, it's, it's, uh, it's, it's, uh, it's,
Starting point is 01:15:22 it's screwed up because I thought that, and the, the Dom Bluth Anastasia movie about Rasputon. Um, and the whole, the whole Tsar family thing. There were, there were a few guesses of that. Some, some folks in the chat got it right away and then there was a few guesses of anesthesia as well. Oh, man. Okay, that was, boy, I'm glad I did get the, uh, yeah, the, the, what's her face, uh, from from the remake of oh god now everything's everything's fading out of my head what's her name the brunette
Starting point is 01:15:52 that i think is really really really incredibly talented i think she has ms selma yeah selma uh blair yeah yeah she's great she's really struggling right now i hope she's she's okay was it m it is ms right ms or yeah i think so a ls or something yeah bad hell boy for people Man, as soon as you said Abe Saphe, it's like, ah, damn it. Uh-huh. Yeah. Trevor, Trevor Broome, Brutonholm was, um, was John Hurt's character. Right.
Starting point is 01:16:23 The old man. The old guy. Yeah. John Hurt getting an alien out of his chest. Fantastic. Yep. Is that our last, was that our last one? No, that was round four.
Starting point is 01:16:32 We're now tied one-one. Oh, shit. This is for all the marbles right here. Okay. And let's see. We've got round five is a director. And I'm going to give you title. is that this man has directed.
Starting point is 01:16:44 Oh, shit. It goes to me? Is it me to start? No, I think I start the bidding. It starts with Brian. Okay, okay. Damn it, this is, this is such a Scott Wheelhouse. I'll say, I mean, if you get one, you know one, right?
Starting point is 01:17:01 So I'm going to say three. Three, okay. Smart move, dude. Right? Directors, sorry, you're going to name films. Okay, number of films that a director did. Yes. I feel like I can do two.
Starting point is 01:17:18 I'll try to. Name that director. All right. This might bite me in the ass. Scott, here are your two titles. Okay. Heroes shed no tears. Bullet in the head.
Starting point is 01:17:33 Bullet in the head. Bullet in the head. That first one is. nothing to me, but bullet in the head is the only one that rings. What was the first one again? Heroes shed no tears. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:53 Bullet and head. Bullet in the head. That sounds like, oh, oh, uh, uh, hard, uh, hard-boiled, um, the killer, uh, uh,
Starting point is 01:18:07 uh, The one, the John Claude Van Damme when we saw him film sack. What am I, uh, uh, shit. Oh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, Scott, calm down. Oh, John, uh, John Wu, John Wu, John Wu.
Starting point is 01:18:24 That is correct. Oh, nicely done. Nicely done. That sounded like it hurt. Oh, it did hurt. Definitely. I could smell that one.
Starting point is 01:18:33 Oh, that absolutely hurt. That's not, that's a Hong Kong film of his bullet in the head. Right? Yep. Uh, a few of the, I wanted to pick some more deep cuts because if I start off with something like a better tomorrow or hard target, Scott's going to get that
Starting point is 01:18:46 right away. Hard target especially. Yeah. What would have the because neither of those helped me out at all. Like I didn't even recognize those as movie titles. You could have done what like face off? The third one would have been hard boiled. Oh, hard boiled. I might have gotten it
Starting point is 01:19:02 from hard boiled then. Yeah. I kept to some of his earlier stuff because you guys have sacked face off and a bunch of, and I make it a little bit tougher on you just yeah yeah yeah no for sure i'm trying to figure out what the connection is across all those because mike meyers behind blue eyes was there a connection this time around or no there there is a connection it's a loose connection but um uh i'll be completely full disclosure here i came up with all this stuff last night so i was like i need a connection what do i do what do i so mike meyers dulae hill pete townsend Doug jones who was ape sapien
Starting point is 01:19:39 And John Wu all have birthdays in May. Oh, that works. That's a fine connection. It's great. I would never guess, but yeah. Did you see that, so that new John Mu movie that he did with the dude from the killer or the, I can't think he was name, the new Robocop guy. I can't think he was name all of a sudden. Keniman.
Starting point is 01:20:00 Keniman. Joel Kinnaman. I haven't seen that, no, but I want to. I'm curious about it. I love John Woo's stuff. I do too. I even, like it didn't review that well, but. like a lot of John American movies don't review that well, and I always like her, so I have a feeling I would like it, but I didn't see it yet, so I was just curious.
Starting point is 01:20:18 I mean, he's responsible for my least favorite Mission Impossible movie, and I still enjoy Mission Impossible, too, for what it is. Right. Like, it's not great in the grand scheme of those movies, but stand alone, it's pretty good. Yeah, not bad at all. Well, I think that does mean I win, then. I'm two up. You are two up. Good job, man.
Starting point is 01:20:36 I feel good about that. This is super fun. I hear that you've never speaking the Iron Giant. Who was it that hasn't seen it and you guys were going to do an episode about it? Was it you that hadn't seen it? So I hadn't seen it
Starting point is 01:20:49 and Amy Robinson hadn't seen it. That's right. Oh, cool. Cool. So we both watched it and then fought back tears for most of the recording of the podcast episode. It's such a great movie, man.
Starting point is 01:21:01 Just saw the trailer for that that multiversis game where they've added Jason Voorhees and the Iron Iron Giant and Rick and Morty, it's like, oh, my God, that almost is enough to make me want to play that game. Yeah, I mean, it'll be free to play, so I might try it. I don't think I'll be very good at it, but I might try it. Where are the, they need a warboy in that lineup.
Starting point is 01:21:22 Pisses me off. It's all Warner Brothers, so yeah, they totally could. Put all your WB stuff in there. It matters. Well, all right, man. That show, you should tell people about it and where to get it because it's a great little podcast. Yeah, so that show is weight you haven't seen. and easiest place to find that
Starting point is 01:21:39 is actually go to TVsTravis.com I've got links to that and other shows that I do and projects that I'm working on. Nice. Tvystravis.com is the best place. I hope work asks nothing more of Mick Fleetwood today while you're there. We'll see you next time.
Starting point is 01:21:56 He really does look like him. We listened to the rumors album the other day and all I could think of was Travis on the front of that cover doing his... Yeah, right. His weird little pose. Yeah. Yeah. Such a good album, though.
Starting point is 01:22:06 It is. You keep doing this thing film sack. Occasionally you'll do a birthday of somebody and I will just obsess. So I listen to so much Billy Joel in the last two weeks. Unbelievable amounts. Too much Billy Joel, if I'm honest. What album did you put, would you put at the top of his list? I think I ended up agreeing with you. I think the, is it The Stranger? The Stranger. Such a great album. The first eight tracks are all just like brilliant, well-written, perfect, perfect Billy Joel. It's almost a perfect, well, certainly for him.
Starting point is 01:22:37 And what I think of when I think of him, it's like it's his perfect album. Everything else is fine. There's a couple that I don't like at all. But it's, you and I share all the same opinions on this, like, you know, uptown girl and what's the other one I hate? I don't like the rock. It's all rock and roll to me. I don't like that. Oh, see, I don't mind that.
Starting point is 01:22:55 I think Glass House is okay, but I don't like, tell her about it. I don't like. Tell her about it. For the longest time. Yeah, don't like that. Yeah. So it's like, yeah. Yeah, it's a real mixed bag, but I'll tell you what, The Stranger, 1977, right?
Starting point is 01:23:13 Something like that, 78? Something like that, yeah. So good. We do have on vinyl. It's right around the corner there in my, in my, I'll put it up here. I haven't changed out. It's been garbage for, since record store day, so I need to change out Shirley Manson in the bathtub. Put somebody else over here.
Starting point is 01:23:28 Yeah, although it would be tempting to keep her in the bathtub, if you know what I'm going. Don't worry. She'll stay in the bathtub as long as the album cover exists, but. Nice. I'm trying to put a different one up there. Real quick here, St. Monkey in the chat says they play Billy Joel at Orange Theory. Okay. Everything comes full circle.
Starting point is 01:23:47 And all roads lead back to Orange Theory. That's right. Also, looks like TV's Travis says the current score now is Scott 3, Brian, too. So now you're up one. I guess we were tied going into today. Oh, I didn't know that. Okay. As long as he's got the real score, I would love it if we had, because I'm bad at that shit.
Starting point is 01:24:01 I can't remember who won what last time. I'll forget in a month when we bring him back with the story. All right. up by one that means it's on still everybody it's still on it would still be on even if you were only up by two damn straight no matter what it would be right it'd be on if i was up by three yeah because we're still going to do it if you're up by if you're up by 12 which you may be if we still get these i still keep having these brain farts it's like no i'm going to need like seven of these movies before i can get the director toward the end of these things but if it's ever director or
Starting point is 01:24:32 years i i have i do think i have an advantage in those you have you definitely have an advantage But any time it's music, I'm screwed. I always get screwed on the music. You're always going to beat me in that. I think TV and names like that, I'm bad at that too. Movies, I don't know what my deal is. Well, there you go. There's all that.
Starting point is 01:24:50 Now, quick note, Memorial Day is coming up, everybody. We all remember things, right? Remember people and the sacrifices they made for this country, and also you just go see your grandpa's grave and things like that. Well, that's right. Barbecues, you know, burgers, all that stuff. It's the American way. And damn it, we're going to support that holiday by taking it off.
Starting point is 01:25:10 So we're not here next Monday. That's right. One Earth week minus one next week. We will not be here. All right? Right, exactly. We're here for the rest of the week, but we're not here for Memorial Day. For those sad about that, you're probably in other countries.
Starting point is 01:25:26 For the rest of you, we'll see you at the barbecue. All right, that's just a quick note about programming. We've got a quick outro text that cracked me up. This is from nobody who left a name. I scoot and burn Oh he did too It's Craig in New York I always forget when it's at the top
Starting point is 01:25:41 I always space it Anyway Craig in New York says I mowed over some ground bees this weekend I have a question about that We'll get to in a minute I ran inside And as I'm explaining to my wife And counting stings
Starting point is 01:25:54 I yell out I don't like bees Love it And now she thinks I'm insane Love the show though That's great Please use our memes In parts of your life
Starting point is 01:26:05 where no one will know what the hell you're doing. Please do that. Second thing, though, what are ground bees? I know. I just now reconciling with the fact that there are tree bees. I don't want there to be ground bees, too. The ground belongs to us. You guys can have the air and your beehives and stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:26:25 Let us have our grounds. Yeah, don't let us have, I don't want ground bees. I've heard of wall bees. They get in your wall. Don't want those. We've got a hornet's nest. I've got to decide whether I'm going to kill or not. Carter thinks I shouldn't.
Starting point is 01:26:36 I think I should. But ground bees? F that noise. Oh, and look at these. I got pictures of them. They have like a little hole. They burrow and stuff. Oh.
Starting point is 01:26:46 Yeah, I don't. No, thanks, man. Do they produce honey and see? No, they are not honey producers. More reason to kill them. Yeah. What do they really doing for us? It says, they're pollinating flowers too, right?
Starting point is 01:26:58 It says the most significant benefit of ground bees is they pollinate flowers. So you're right. Yeah. Yeah. They're vital pollinators and sprays. bring flowers in the areas that you find them. It says they're not aggressive unless you mow them.
Starting point is 01:27:14 Yep. Damn it. Yep. Oh, it does say if you want to get rid of them, here's what it says. Suppose you have a problem with ground bees. I do at a very intrinsic sort of philosophical level, I have a problem with ground bees. What can you do to deter the bees from nesting in your lawn or the ground among your shrubs? There are a few
Starting point is 01:27:29 natural deterrence that control methods and control methods to get rid of ground nesting bees. And this to do it without harming the environment. When trying to eradicate bees nesting in the ground to best avoid using chemicals or pesticides. Spraying, pesticides to control bugs can harm beneficial insects and humans.
Starting point is 01:27:45 Additionally, pests and garden, okay, bup-p-p-b-p-up. Okay, covering, you can cover it with a tarp. And then they'll get the, they'll just get the F out and go find a new place to live. Sure, that makes sense. Does that make sense? Yeah. Also, water grass to get rid of the ground bees. They don't like water. That's kind of what I would have expected to is
Starting point is 01:28:01 just water the grass a lot. Yeah. Yeah. Keep that ground. Nice and wet. Also says you can do a bee trap, which there are a bunch of those online. You can learn how to build, and those are easy to trap and then take somewhere and let them go. Or sprinkle cinnamon around the nest. They don't like cinnamon.
Starting point is 01:28:16 Oh, interesting. Yeah. A bunch of boring bees. Geez. Who doesn't like cinnamon? I love cinnamon. Yeah. Anyway, there's that.
Starting point is 01:28:23 I like cinnamon. Make some sneeze. That's right. Bees sneeze.

Starting point is 01:28:44 The only thing missing today is an outro song request from Brian Abbott. Brian, what do we got? Well, I've got something for you. This one is for Zach, aka Pop Gun in Discord. He says, only take this request if there's no birthdays. Well, there's no birthday today. But if you do, on this day around this time, I will be in an interview to move from one of the biggest tech companies in the world, Google, to a small hometown electrical company to start
Starting point is 01:29:10 my career as a project manager. Love everything you guys do. P.S., when is A&TP coming back? Well, we've been having discussions, both Hammond and me and Bobby and me, and I've got some ideas that I need to kind of get laid out on paper and figure out the trajectory of the season. But I'm thinking the way I want to do it is a non-elimination. season that just is based on points. And so that way everybody for the entire season gets to play and participate in every challenge. And they'll still be a winner at the end, but they won't get the axe. And Monica, don't worry.
Starting point is 01:29:54 As soon as it becomes ready for the level of having discussions about it, then you'll be involved in that too. Yeah, of course. Yep. That's great. But I needed editing talk because that is the biggest part of A&P is the editing. So that one we need to do. Anyway, so that's when A&P is coming back.
Starting point is 01:30:16 So soon at a trademark. Anyway, Zach, starting a small hometown electrical company. Let's talk about electricity. And let's play a song about electricity. One of my favorite songs that has to do with that and does not take us down. down to Electric Avenue, is a song called Electricity. It's by orchestral maneuvers in the dark, or OMD, if you prefer, and has one of the killer, one of the most killer riffs of the 80s.
Starting point is 01:30:44 No FX agrees, and they covered it on the 1999 compilation Before You Were Punk Volume 2. Here's No FX and Electricity. One source of energy One source of energy, the odds of discovery, Electric room for me, Never more to be free Electricity
Starting point is 01:31:35 Nuclear and HEPB Carbon kills from the sea Wasted electricity Hey Hey hey hey Hey Hey hey hey Hey
Starting point is 01:31:49 Hey Hey Hey No! The chance is nearly gone The alternative is one Final source of energy So on electricity
Starting point is 01:32:33 Hey Hey hey hey Hey Hey hey hey Hey Hey Hey Electric study
Starting point is 01:32:44 Electric study Electric study Electricity Scott, Ryan, and Bobby. This is Mark. I'm not in the tad pool. Listen to most of the morning streams. So while I'm driving my GPS control tractor, comment on the, I believe, the show I can't remember what day I'm listening to. But you're talking with Bobby about the solar storms affecting GPS and farmers quitting planting.
Starting point is 01:33:23 It did have an impact on GPS, but our planters, and that's what we use to put the deep in the ground, they're called planters, are generally pulled by tractors, which are steered by GPS, but the planter relies on the GPS to determine when to start planning and when to stop planning in a field, i.e. that we call it section control, so it shuts the planner units off when you reach an area and it's already been planted and starts it up when it reaches. the area wants to start planning again. So yes, the solar storm had some impact on our GPS signals. I'm in southwestern Ontario, not too far from the city of Chatham, which is about halfway between London and winter, and we experienced frequent GPS stutters on Friday, May the 10th, the night we had the first oral for Alice. but it wasn't untenable. We did not have to stop planning
Starting point is 01:34:27 because we still remember how to do it the Armstrong way and we were following Mark Doe Oro's in the fall. So any questions forever related so feel free to get back to me. I'll put that on the air, please. Have a good day.
Starting point is 01:34:42 Bye. Okay, Scotty and Boombilati. Let's try this again. This is Kissy Bear, Colin, for the morning stream. My dog is being fed now, no longer losing his mind. He's a weirdo. Oh, yeah. So, calling about the zoo and the elephants and how I read an article yesterday about how China, a Chinese zoo got into, like, caught some black for trying to pass
Starting point is 01:35:06 off black and white puppies as panda cubs. And I thought that was hilariously relevant to what y'all were talking about yesterday. And then secondly, this was mentioned probably even a year ago at this point, about how your fridge, because you have of kimchi in there 24-7 has like a lasting kimchi smell to it. So I've been in a relationship with a Korean person for the last five years, and we lovingly refer to that smell as kimchi parts whenever we open the fridge. And what we do to counteract that, which is something that her mom taught us, is just leaving like a jar of coffee grounds, like old coffee grounds in the fridge, really
Starting point is 01:35:48 neutralizes that smell. And then encourages you to make a fresh pot of coffee every now and then, you know? So, yeah, hot tip for the day. Love you guys. I'm proud of you. And see you soon. I guess. I don't know what that means.
Starting point is 01:36:02 Hey, Scott. I don't know if this message is more for FilmSack, TMS, Couch Party, or the core movie watching pre-show. But I wanted to give you a list of reasons why I personally think you would love the movie Pineapple Express and you've been sleeping on it because you don't love Seth Rogen. Right, here we go. Danny McBride, killer, probably the choice role of the movie. He's hilarious, just great recurring character. Kevin Corrigan, Craig Robinson, play a couple of mini boss bad guys. They are hilarious. Gary Cole, Rosie Perez are the lead antagonists. They are also very funny, great casting. Ed Bagley Jr. has an amazing part in the middle of the movie. That is just amazing. I always think of him from that Voyager two-parter where he was like, the tech guy from the 90s that somehow through time travel got technology. Sorry, rant. Joe LaTrulyo has a funny role right in the beginning of the movie, but of all things, if you can't sit through all of Pineapple Express,
Starting point is 01:37:06 watch the first five minutes. There is one of the funniest scenes I think I might have ever seen in a movie between Bill Hader and James Remar. It is just great. If for nothing else, throw on the first five minutes, watch that. I will say it's very tone different than the rest of the movie, but it is just, it's a great scene. You will love it.
Starting point is 01:37:30 All right. Thanks. Love all of the shows, though. Bye. Hey, Scott, this is a message from the four of the morning stream. This is Tony from Brooklyn, now residing in New Jersey. Just want to thank you all. Love all the shows. Listen to them all and you guys brighten my
Starting point is 01:37:46 day. Thank you, Scott, Brian, Brian, and Randy it's a luck so listen i need your help scott i was wondering where i can get my hands on that uh you know the dune lady singing anyway um i looked on the iTunes store and uh don't know whether there's an app for that or what have you i'm a boomer please forgive me anyway done away is the funniest one and brian listen know you have a good day everybody hey you guys chuck buyers calling the TMS I've been wanting to say something and what you were talking about today with talking about David Letterman brought it all back I too was a huge Dave fan I'm
Starting point is 01:38:32 about six years older than you guys but I remember he used to want to do a catchphrase and I think this would be perfect you'd get Fletcher to do something with it something like the morning stream it's like walking the relish for the morning stream what do you want wicker remember that table's hilarious love the show later hey hello this is for reading the morning stream specifically episode 2639 and lobby frankenberger's science spot talking about superstition. I had a class in college called The Sociology of Sport, and the professor
Starting point is 01:39:24 talked about in sport, the thing about like, I won't change my socks because we were on a winning streak or that sort of thing. And that's called a self-fulfilling prophecy. And it relates right back to the Kevin Kosser movie Volverum, don't mess with the streak. If a player believes he's playing better because he hasn't
Starting point is 01:39:48 changed his socks, then he's playing better because he hasn't changed his socks or not shaved or whatever. So just don't mess with the streak. It's got some precedence. Anyway, keep up the good work, boys. This is Chuck from Salem, American. Checking out. Thanks. Bye.
Starting point is 01:40:07 This message is for TMS. This is Mike Picholik. So I wanted to tell you about the hat on the model of the ghoul. It was, like I said, it was two different filaments. One was PLA, and I ran out of that, and I used PETG. Well, normally you use PETG as a support of PLA. You don't mix them together. So I didn't know that that was not going to adhere correctly, like when it broke.
Starting point is 01:40:35 So it was a neat look, but it didn't work. I printed you a new hat. It's black. And I'm also doing a brown one. The first one, the black one, is in carbon fiber pet G now. So you're going to have some extra hats. And I'm sending those out to you this week. And also, Brian, I've never heard of Eastman.
Starting point is 01:40:55 I am now a Patreon subscriber to him. That model is actually from a guy named Wexter, W-E-K-S-T-E-R, that I had gotten that model from. So I don't have inside information, even though I did work back for Interplay way back when. And I don't have inside contacts. I wish I did, but I don't. Also, I had a blast at TMS Vegas, so I just wanted to say thank you. It was amazing. And Scott, Brian wanted me to do a voice for you that I forgot to do when I was around you,
Starting point is 01:41:26 and it is Stitch. I'm not a buddy. I'm not supposed to folks. Oh, Honda means family. I found me when there's, sorry. family means, oh, Hana means family means no one just left behind. Well, let them all right. You guys have a good day. I'll talk to you later. Bye. Hey, TMS. This is for Brian. Just letting you know that Irish folk music bands, fans who are actually Irish, they actually hate Dropkick Murpies, too.
Starting point is 01:41:56 My girlfriend's dad was an Irish folk singer, so I get to hear a lot about this. Anyway, just I let you know. Love the show, though. Hey, guys. I was just listening to Brian to talk about how Floyd is made. in the middle of Buckees on TMS. And that struck me as odd because I've always been told that around the corner pledge is made. Poop Josh and Brian,
Starting point is 01:42:17 love the show, though. Bye. Hey, it's for TMS. This is Jay. I was a couple weeks ago I was listening. And I swear, Stephen, our comic book guy
Starting point is 01:42:27 that we all love, said he hasn't gone into a comic book store in years. That's confusing. This show is part of the Frog Pants Network. Yes. Get more at FrogPants.com.
Starting point is 01:42:50 Remember me?
