The Morning Stream, you are listening to Adele Dazim. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the morning stream. This is the morning stream for October 24th, 2024. I'm Scott Johnson with

Brian, Ibit. Hi, Brian. Hello. Welcome to your Thursday business. Here's a quick, quick PSA. No Wendy today. She's on vacation. Okay. She's not going to be here. My wife is there. She's at her house. She will not be calling in with advice for you and your personal life. Okay. Aw. Aw. If you do want advice, we'll be happy to give you some. Oh, yeah. We'll give you advice. We got advice like me. It's like Penny. We have advice coming out of our butts. Yeah. Very, quite little. that is where we would pull the advice that we give you. That's where I keep it, so I may as well spend it. Anyway, it's good to see you all. Slightly shorter show today, not just because of the windy thing. I have a blood draw today, so I got to be done sort of early, get things edited and done and then out of here.

Nothing serious. Nobody worry about it. Don't send me your messages. Everything is fine. Just a normal checkup thing. We've been saying, well, I have been saying something wrong, and I've been schooled via phone call. All right. So we're going to play this phone call.

I wonder if I've been saying the same thing wrong. Yeah, let's hear it. I doubt it. I think you probably got this right. Well, I don't know. This is one that's regional. So maybe. We'll find out.

Okay. Here it is. Hey, Scott and Brian. This is Nikki Meadows, and I'm calling for TMS 2714. Scott, I'm going to have to throw an Appalachia. It's not Appalachia or Appalachian. It's Appalachian. Love the show, though.

All right. Appalachia. I don't know why that's hard for me. Appalachian, yeah, Appalachian Mountains. Why, why was that? I don't know, maybe you just never came up growing up or something, or when it did it was wrong. I wonder if there might be another word or phrase that it's close to that you just automatically glom onto, Appalachia, like, what's the, what's the disease, alopecia? Alopecia.

Is there like something else that we think of that, that we. kind of connect with Appalachia or a bad case of Appalachian it that way. Yeah, I fall so I follow this girl on TikTok who's from there and she does a lot of content from the area and kind of around the culture of the area.

And so now I hear it all the time, but when I say it, I don't know why. I just I lean into the Aisha instead of the Asha. And it's fine. It sounds so wrong to me though. Even when she says it just then, Appalachia, it feels like what's that like? It's like when people come here and they see Hurricane and they think it's hurricane.

It's like that. Yeah, right, right. Or Louisville instead of Louisville. Yeah, Lewisville, New Orleans, as opposed to New Orleans, those kinds of things. So, yeah, I will take full responsibility for my mispronunciation of your fine community, cultural zone, and geological marvel. That is, the Appalachian Mountains. It's a lovely part of the world, and there's nothing quite like it. Okay.

I think... To talk to somebody, I give her right. to somebody in the lift who said they went skiing. He was from London, but he lives in Houston now, and I asked him, you know, you're coming out to Denver. Picked him up from the airport, took him downtown, and we talked about the weather because it's just gorgeous right now in Colorado. Nice cool temperatures, leaves are changing, but clear a sky, and you can still be outside in like a t-shirt or a long-sleevee shirt. don't need a jacket. And we talked about his last visit to Colorado, which was in the winter.

And I said, oh, do you ski? He says, I've only been skiing a couple times. And one of them, one of those times was in the Appalachian. And it was because my nephew lives in Tennessee and said, oh, let's go skiing. And he, or was it the Smoky Mountains he was talking about the Appalachians? But anyway, he said that it was basically like you're skiing in slush. Oh, it's not fresh powder type snow. No, no.

I'm trying to think of I've skied anywhere, but here. Oh, you know what? I did ski once when I was a kid in Flagstaff, Arizona, but nowhere else. I've never been like, I guess you can ski. There's lots of places like Northern California, Vermont. There are other places in this country with lots of skiing, obviously Denver. But I've never been anywhere mostly here and then that one place. So I just assume they're all the same.

If they're high enough elevation, they have the same. same kind of snow. But that's a very different climate in Tennessee. So probably very different. And I imagine, yeah, and I imagine the further north you get, you probably get less slush, right? You start getting up into New Hampshire and Maine and Vermont. Do the Appalachians? They don't go into Vermont, do they? I think just. I know they cut into Maine a little bit, right, or touch it at least. Yeah, they do cut into Maine. But you never think of that, right? It sounds weird to say that. Virginia. Yeah. We always think it's like separate from everything else and it's just these southern states, southeastern states, and that's it. That's all who gets that mountain range. But I guess it's like ours,

where the Rocky Mountains touch all the bunch of us. Yeah. Yeah. It goes into Calgary. Doesn't it go into Calgary? The Rocky Mountains? Yeah. It goes into Calgary and further north than that. Yeah. They know the power of mountain time up there. Maccada confirms the Appalachian Trail. See, I did it now. The Appalachian Trail does go through Vermont. Oh, okay. you go. Good job, Vermont. You get some too. You get some Appalachian. I was telling Brian pre-show that I couldn't sleep last night because we had a windstorm. It was very loud. And we also had neighbors with their car starting and all this other stuff. But there's one little piece I held

back. Okay. I swear to you at 2.30 or so in the morning. I didn't look at the clock, but it was around then. I think a neighbor has a pig. I think there's like a, did you over here squeal like a pig? No, I did not hear that.

Okay, good. I might have thought differently about what I was thinking, but I was hearing this like, it might have been something different. You sure play banjo nicely. I was hearing a squeal, I was hearing a squeal like it

was coming from a pig, and no other voices, nobody else saying anything. I saw a light come on. I saw a shadow walk back and forth to this place. I heard the pig squealing, and then when the person got to a certain room, the pig stopped squealing or what I think is the pig. Now, maybe there's some weird baby with a nostril problem or something weird going on.

I don't want to say for sure, but I don't think you can have domestic pigs in our neighborhood. I think it's like, H.O.A. would frown upon this. Please, somebody submit the title, Some Weird Baby with a Nostral Problem. Please. I don't know. I don't know because it's just a sound, right? I don't really know for sure. And I, and I, I'm going to have my phone more handy tonight. Okay. So I can record, I'm going to try to have the wherewithal to record it because I can hear it through the walls.

You don't hear it during the day, though. No, not at all. Never. Not until last night. Okay. All right. So my, so I have two theories about that. One, it's, it's some other problem with a person and it's just sounding like that.

Or they just got the pig, if it is a pig. And it would explain why guys up at 2 a.m. trying to quiet down a brand new pet or something. something like i i was running through my and then i couldn't sleep again because i was thinking about this damn pig and then before you know it i think the same exact neighbors up at four with his engine going whoa oh jeez with his freaking uh truck getting ready for work so i don't know what to make of it i don't think that's allowed here i think you have to get you'd have to go through some crazy permit getting to to get a pig in our neighborhood yeah yeah oh really yeah you can't just

get a pig like a little pot-bellied pig you have to go through like the h away even like an inside one I think so. See, again, I don't even know that for sure. I've never really looked into it. I just assume, since they don't let you have chickens here, this particular HOA, I assume I couldn't have any kind of farm animals. But then again, you can take a pop billy in the house and they can be, like, carpet trained. What do you call it?

Box trained. House trained. Yeah, yeah. I mean, we had a wild, we had a long-eared rabbit growing up that basically worked like a cat. That was pretty cool. That's cool. Yeah. Wow, it would really go, and it would use the litter box.

Yeah, his name was Fang. Crating for a rabbit. Would a bury or would just poop in the sand? It would poop in the sand. Oh, yeah, good question. I don't remember. I think cats, wasn't there something we read that said cats are the only, cats and humans are the only creatures that bury their poop?

Right. Dogs do that thing, but didn't we find out in the show that it's more of, yeah, but it's more like, it's less about burying it, more about kicking their, their business around or something, their scent or whatever it is? I don't know what it is. Something, yeah. Lop-eared rabbit. I just found the brand of rabbit.

Let's see. The brand of rabbit. Yeah, the rabbit brand. I've found it. If you're a rabbit's not a lapier, you've got the wrong brand. Let's see. Does it say? It doesn't say anything about his toilet needs.

But yeah, I know we had a litter box for it, but I don't remember if you buried his poo. I don't think he did If I remember, my mom just complained the whole time We had it So she hated that thing She wanted to cook it and eat it Anyway, so whatever that is I'll try to report back if tonight

I can get some more sound out of it I will, I'll record it I'll have my thing there I guess I could do some kind of Is there a way or an app That'll do like The mic will wake up when it hears noises Do you know if that's a thing?

That I don't know Some sort of like security app or something. Yeah. I guess a security camera would do that. Because the camera will do sound stuff. My wise camera will do that. I don't know.

That means I'd have to move it. That sounds like work. I'm not doing that. That's too much work. Not doing that for the neighbor's pig. And these are the same neighbors that are always poop. Their little dogs are doing little poopies on my yard. So there's just a lot of neighbor stuff with them.

You know, they're nice, but. They're the ones you want to have that sign up for, right? Yeah. Yeah. And we put up a, not a blockade, but like when we, When we poisoned, not poisoned, when we sprayed the yard, but it's poisonous if kids licked it or something or dogs or whatever, we put up a little black little fence and then a little sign that says, we just treated this lawn. You probably don't want to have your pets here or something like that. I don't remember what it was.

And we were in our heads thinking, well, this does two things. It's going to protect these animals, but also keeping the F off of there, right? Yeah. It didn't matter. They still walked in there, let them poo on there, and then went the other way. It didn't do anything. so good job america you um you know you can get those like so they have the things you put on your leash a little plastic sometimes it's shaped like a dog bone but a little shape like a capsule

thing that holds rolls of um poop bags and and amazon sells like you can get 40 of these rolls of poop bags which have like 20 on each one for something ridiculous five bucks yeah um maybe i should 3d print 3d design something a little thing you can put in your yard like has a little steak on the bottom you just go chrink and it's got a little roller on it and it's short little short size i like it and it just says please bag your poop and then it's got a little place that you can just put that roller on there yeah and see if people that's not bad basically make my own little park stop for the dog poop for the dog exactly it's like a reminder and a little offering like look we get it you probably have poop bags with you this is more

of a reminder just to use them yeah and i'm going to go ahead and guess that these people will still not use it. That's my, that's my guess. Yeah, you think so? I just think that they're the kind of people that if they were, this is terrible to say, because they don't have any evidence of this other than this dog poop thing. But I feel like if they were at like a park and a garbage cam was just

10 feet away and they're wrinkled up wrapper and they're, and they just are like, oh, that's, that's 10 feet. We're just going to tuck this under the bench. That's just the feeling I get. I don't want to, you know, I don't want to besmirch anybody, but, you know, do I go through all the work of that and then have them just ignore it? I don't know. Freaking. Or, or, here's the other problem.

Does a thing like that, Brian, suddenly attract other neighbors to go, oh, you guys see, there's a place I can just get bags and, like, now they're all going to use my yard for poo. You know what I mean? They may pick it up. At a sudden, it just becomes a new stop, right? I don't want that. Oh, okay, maybe, maybe not. We'll see what happens. Yeah.

Hey, um, uh, we have a game tonight, Scott, you and, you and I, not really our games, but, uh, um, isn't there a, uh, there's a Colorado avalanche. Is that tonight? Versus, yeah. I saw the coach yesterday. See, we've got our, we got our team, the Colorado avalanche versus, remind me again what the name of your hockey team is there, Scott? Well, right now it's the Utah, what is it, hockey club, bullshit name. Utah Hockey Club They're changing

They're doing some trademarky shit And it's taking too long I think next season We have a real name But right now it's dumb Super dumb Let's see Is that tonight?

I think it's tonight Let me confirm that Or was it last night I missed it Versus Utah, here we go Oh 24th today Yeah today Yeah there we go

All right So this is This is our new We're going to create a new As far as I know There was no When they were the coyotes Down in Arizona

you guys didn't have any kind of like rivalry with them right as far as i know no no so that now's the time we get this going now we get this rivalry going yeah exactly take take the rivalry away from uh from from from the detroit red wings by the way you guys actually have a better record than we do we're three three and four you guys are four two and one so really yeah so you're you're actually have a better currently have uh more wins than we do i'm a little surprised by that so Colorado, okay, so money line has, let's see. Oh, yeah, what is the, let's see what the, what are the, what are the betting sites saying, maybe that's what I do is I put a little, put a little money where my mouth is.

A little cash, yeah. Draft Kings, let's see what draft king says. Utah Hockey Club plus 1.5. I don't know what, I don't know how these numbers are. Oh, so that means that Avalanche is favored. So, um, avalanche is favored by two points. So they're saying, we'll give you one and a half points plus whatever. the Utah Hockey Club.

Gotcha. The over 6.5, the under 6.5? Is that normal? That is total points for the game. Okay. So I don't know, boy, defensive-wise, that's a high-scoring game.

I would definitely take the under on that. Yeah, that's for hockey. I'm going to do exactly that. Here we go. I'm going to put $5. You're going to witness me here, gambling, the generic gambler, right here, NHL.

That's awesome. Where is it? Let me just see if there's a real quick. shot on goal all parlay boosts get a profit boost on an angel shot on goal parlay now I'm not can do that oh just a plain SGP all right I'll opt in he got me this is all like foreign language to me the way all these numbers uh let's see uh shots on goal oh I'm not doing any of those all right let's go NHL NHL yes shoot come on this thing you know uh Nathan McKinnon on your team supposed to be a real ringer that guy says here I guess so yeah I know the name

When was last time I watched an avalanche game over a year ago? Let's see. Easily. Yeah, they, yeah, this whole, they try to explain it all, but they're giving you the, they're giving you the edge here. Okay, here we go. Utah, there it is, Utah Hockey Club, Colorado Avalanche. I'm going to take Avalanche minus a point in a half and the under in a parley, in a $5 parlay. Well, sure.

So what that means is that I bet five. bucks on both of those things happening, and if I win, I get $24.75. Okay. Off your five investment? From my $5, for my $5 bet. That's pretty good. Jeez. It is pretty good.

But both things have to happen. Avalanche has to win by two points or more, and the total game has to be under 6.5 points, which is tough with the Avalanche winning by more than two points, but I still think, I have faith. I have faith. There we go. We'll see tomorrow. We'll see how things shake out when we do play date.

We'll talk about my win or my loss. Awesome. In this analysis here, they say that the one wild card here could be Connor Ingraham, our goalie, is apparently either really on or way off. Depends on the night. Gotcha. So he has really bad nights and really good nights.

Yeah. So tonight, we'll see if it's a good night. Is it here or in Denver? It's there. It's in Utah. It's in the Utah. It's in the Utah. That explains where my neighbors were up so early.

my other neighbors are up so early because they're the they're they're part of that whole thing yeah yeah i want to go i'd like to get some tickets to see these games you should talk you should talk to that neighbor and say hey do you hear a pig noise the other uh last night you guys hear about that crazy can you believe but he up to that and uh yeah i don't know about that but would you like some tickets for a night's game yeah also their dog is very yippy anyway uh really okay that's fine uh let's see we got uh oh about untamed heart this is uh a response is something you brought up yesterday from Frost Minnesota who says it's kind of funny

you and Brian discussed Untamed Heart in the same episode you were talking about Kim being in the Twin Cities. The movie was filmed in several locations around the neighborhood I grew up in in Minneapolis. I haven't seen it since I was a kid but I remember really loving it because I recognized most of the locations. Do you have, so this brought up another question

for me. Do you have a thing that you see, an old movie, it doesn't matter, but something where you're like, oh yeah, I know all those streets, this was filmed right across this thing in Denver or whatever. Like, do you have anything like that where it's always... Yeah, the big one for me is things to do in Denver when you're dead. There are very few...

It feels like there are very few movies shot in Denver. We've got lots in Vail and, you know, dumb and dumber up there and some in Utah as well. I feel like I know more places when they have films shot in Las Vegas because I'm able to say, oh, yeah, I know that place. Oh, yeah, there's the lobby of Caesars. Oh, there's the... There's that little area between Paris and the Venetian or whatever. Or how wrong they're getting in Vegas.

I love when they get it wrong. Yeah, it's the best one. You have the trope of, we're driving down the strip. And all right, there's Mandalay Bay, and there's the stratosphere. And there's Treasure Island. And somehow the flamingo is back. And wait. Now we're all the way down to the golden nugget again somehow.

It's weird. Exactly. something like yeah so it's always you know it's always so fun watching those things and just figuring out like how long they must have gone back and forth up and down the strip to get all those shots yeah and then put them in the wrong order for me for me tonight oh tonight it takes place in uh in in in Vegas and you're and you're gonna you're gonna have us a review on monday or I guess I will have a review on Monday because we don't have a we don't have a TMS Fridays tomorrow that I would normally give a review of the Thursday night movie so seems like it'll be it's

struggling a bit with the reviewers, but I'm curious about what the audience thinks. Zero surprise on that. I mean, I was surprised how much I enjoyed the two, the both of them. They're fine. They're a lot of fun. If you park your brain at the door and you don't have high expectations, if you don't think of them as like having to be on the same caliber as the MCU movies, they're a lot of fun. And they're easily the best non-MCU movies.

And I'm including the Spider-Man Sony. stuff as part of the MCU movies. I'm not counting those as like your straight-up Sony stuff. Sure. It's a high, it's a low bar to get over. I mean, Morbius and Madam Webb and do you think we're ever going to get a release on Craven? Did they pull Craven? Are they still

thinking that Craven's going to come out next month? I think Craven is still happening and the only news was that Blade got pushed again, so it's off the 2025 calendar now. I'm so bummed about Blade. Oh yeah, Spider-Verse. Spider-Verse trumps everything. It's so damn good. Oh, it's the best. It's the single best thing

Sony ever put their toe in freaking love that thing okay here we go craven the hunter still planning on coming on oh now December 13th maybe it was already December 13th and I forgot about that but uh well it definitely got moved around at some point right I remember it getting changed so for me here locally it's thing you mentioned dumb and dumber that's one that always comes up because the old airport was really visible on that but for me it's um if it's an old movie I always think of sandlot and when I think of a new movie I think of hereditary the the horror movie and that was Park City and then some sandy stuff

where I grew up and that's a really terrible movie to associate with your local area It really is. It's so freaky, freaky, but yeah, to Frost M.N.'s point there's something about that, especially when you're growing up, you're like,

oh, look at this, a thing that was made here and you get a little pride in that and, you know, I don't know, it's kind of a cool thing. Although if you live in Hollywood, the Hollywood Hills or whatever, you know, As parts of L.A. You're probably sick of everything being set in L.A. Oh, I'd forgotten that Die Hard 2, you know, the Washington, D.C. airport, Dulles, is really shot at the old Stapleton International Airport.

Oh, well, if it was the new one, he would have beaten the bad guy just simply by confusing him. Exactly. You know what I mean? That's right. All right. Well, come to Colorado. Have a few. Wait, matter, which term am I supposed to be in?

How's these, what is this train business? Why is Denver so far? What do you mean I'm going to go all the way on the opposite side to get this thing signed so I can get a ticket to use on the other side? Like that place is crazy. If you know what you're doing, it's fine. But when you get there the first time, you're like, holy shit. It's insane. And you sent me that clip of somebody talking about Denver and the Denver airport, how far it is.

And Joel McHale did like almost all the same jokes about it being so far away. I like that guy. Yeah, not a lot. Even looking at this page, I guess there were ladybugs. was the Roddy Dangerfield teaching soccer was filmed on location here in Denver.

Weird. No, I don't think I've ever seen it, but I remember the, right, he was, it was like a Girl Scouts group except they were called Ladybugs and he got put in charge of, how did that go with it?

That sounds terrible. That sounds awful. I don't think I missed as much. And something called Over the Edge in 1979 chronicles a teenage uprising in a fictional Denver suburb where there's nothing to do.

And it's called this. suburb is called New Granada, deftly portrayed by Aurora. Well, our of the Venezuelan gangs are all there, all there in Aurora. Yeah. Shooting the place up. Yeah. Eating cats, eating dogs. Yeah.

Eat the cats. Eat the dogs. Anyway, that untamed heart, by the way, if you are, like Scott and I, completely hooked on From, and you're waiting with bated breath for the next episode of Frum to come to arrive, you got some good news for you. Untamed Heart, currently viewable on the MGM Plus app.

So make some good use of that during the week in between episodes of From and go watch Untamed Heart with Christian Slater, Marissa Tomey and White Men Can Jump. Rosie Perez. Rosie Perez. Yep. I haven't seen that at all, so maybe I'm on the list of people should see it. There you go. Yeah, I think I'll watch it again. That's a cute movie, sweet movie.

Oh, 3 o'clock. If you don't, you know, go ahead. If you're not in love with Marissa Tomey, you'll watch that and you'll just fall in love with her because she's adorable in that film. Do you remember 3 o'clock high? the movie? Yes. Yes. That was filmed in Ogden. I forgot about that one. Oh, yeah. That's great. That was a pretty good one. That's cool still there. I think you can still go to that school for your high school kid. Don't go there as an adult. I think you're weird. Okay. Everybody? Yeah. Yeah. Gosh. One final note from Mink who wrote in and said, apparently we missed something.

So sticky and buckle. Ew. In episode 2711, you were discussing trademarks with some huge freaking nerd, meaning Steven Schlecker. And you mentioned something. or sorry, several brands that are now commonly used as words like band-aids and rollerblades but you missed one of the best ones. Velcro. Can I get a grumpy nerd swearing at daylight savings? If not, I'll take something I haven't heard in a while. Mink. Well,

while I find that... Yeah. I forgot about that. I completely forgot that Velcro was a brand name because what is it called otherwise? Hook-and-loop fastener system? Yeah, it has to be something like that, right? Something really boring and long. Golly. If I was to guess. While you find Daryl, I'm going to look really quickly

up and see what the what the um talia confirms it uh she says yeah it's literally that hook and loop okay really that's horrible just called hook and loop called hook and loop well i'm really glad we found a brand name to call it because that's stupid no kidding oh that's horrendous all right let's see hey honey could you run up to the ace hardware and pick up some hook and loop please pick up some hook and loop i always forget to name this file prop well so i can find it easy It always has trouble to find it. I have it, I know. Is this it right here?

Hold on. You know the answer. No, that's me talking to Daryl. How about this one? I finally got... No, that isn't it. How about this? I just want to say,

what are we doing with Daryl's segment? No, that's... I don't like D. Do you try it, look for thanks a lot, maybe? Is it thanks a lot? The effing time thing? Let's see, thanks. No, time.

No. How about... Daylight. Oh, is this it? Yeah, daylight feels like the words every day. No. Angry, maybe. What did I call this?

Mad? Swear. Oh, here it is. I'm going to change the file name right now. Daylight savings. Yeah, change the daylight. Savings. Yeah, weird daylight saving time changes in beginning of November.

Usually it's end of October, isn't? Or am I just old and it changed? Brian, you. I had this exact conversation with somebody not three, four days ago, my buddy, Darren. I am convinced it was in October. And he's like, I don't think it's ever been. And I'm like, you're lying to me. Yeah, no, he's definitely wrong.

It's definitely been in October, right? It has been. It's definitely been in October. And I know that they did move it. They moved it a few years ago, switched it out. Yeah, eight years ago, Jeannie is confirming. They should move it entirely off the planet. We should quit doing it.

Agreed. Yes. All right, here it is. I'm playing. Thanks a lot. Time change. It's a good middle of the night that I'm going to work now. Oh, man. Never forget. Never relent. Daryl. Never relent. Oh, geez. horrendous.

All right. Time for some news. And let's get to it. We got a bunch here. The news is brought to you by. By Coverville. Oh, Brian. Is there a Coverville today? Yes. Oh. What will it be about?

Yes. Okay, so it's the band, yes. Will it be covers by and four? This went horribly well. John Anderson celebrating his 80th birthday, so we're doing a yes cover story, which really means that there will only be eight songs, but it'll still take an hour to get through them all.

I'm in the mood for that kind of music. Oh, you'll like it then. Okay. Awesome. That'll be, uh, when today will that happen? That'll be at noon. Even though this is still a short show, uh, still need some time to get some other things wrapped up before we do that.

And yes, I will be playing Marvel Snap And the deck I will be using What I call the Ramp of Misery Oh Lord As my deck You title it yourself It's not like a Yeah, you title you title your deck's yourself

And you just don't take turn number five Or turn number six If you can get a magic out And You construct your own? meta or do you look stuff up and go oh this is whatever he's playing right now or what do you do i i look at the meta and then i kind of add my favorite cards to it because there's some cards that i love playing viper i love you know uh viper will take a card on your side the lowest

card even if it's a negative number and throw it over onto the other side so if i can get a if i can do a viper uh if i can add a viper to my game than i do that's the way to play it you don't want to do stuff just because it's min max no it's boring it's like Like, it's like, you know, I'm going to follow the recipe exactly and make the same cake that everybody else makes. But, you know, like, no, I'm going to add a little bit of cinnamon to it. Yep. That hydrophobic cinnamon, I'm going to add to it and make it all different. Doesn't like that water.

I did find out you can do an oil, though, that will dissipate. And it's probably because of the way it's made. Oh, there you go. Yeah, so I'm going to start using that for the chies that I might like to make. It's pretty good. All right, a boss. I don't mean at the end of a video game. Mini boss or, okay, not the final boss.

Like the one you don't want to talk to and has meetings all the time, that kind of guy. He laid off a staff member because she returned from maternity leave pregnant again. Oh. Yeah, that's pretty good. Mother been awarded $28,000 to compensate after being dismissed due to her pregnancy. Nikita Twitchin. Oh, that's a great name. Nikita.

Nikita Twitchin. She'd be out there twitching, if you know what I'm saying. The Tweet of Kitchen. She's preparing to come back from maternity leave in first grade projects, a building services firm. That sounds like it's in Manchester yet is. There's this website. And a sponsor of the Swansea City Football Club, let her go upon learning she was pregnant again. While she was gone, she got knocked up again.

Yeah, she's fertile, fertile. That's what a real name should be. She is very fertile. We should study this woman. hired in October of 2021 is an office administrator at the Pontiprid-based Pont-Pri-Pri-Based company.

It's a weird spelling for that. I don't know, yeah. Mrs. Twitchen spoke highly... Why is that so familiar? Mrs. Twitchin? Oh, it's a character on one of the Faulty Towers episodes was Mrs. Twichin. Oh, really?

Or maybe a Mr. Titchen. Somebody named Titchen is on an episode of that. I watch the... If there's a show I've seen more times than possibly Seinfeld in terms of just rewatches probably faulty towers. It's only two seasons,

but I have that on repeat for most of my life. I freaking love that. That's such a great. I mean, it is a great. Greatest sitcom of all time, in my opinion.

Yeah. Anyway. Oh, yeah, here's the, here's the, one minute audio if you'd like it. Oh, I'd love it. Let's hear it.

And we give it to you right under our motorcycle discussion in Discord. Sweet. All right, here we go. I'm hitting play. Any kind of you, love you?

A tomato juice, please. Ah, Mr. Twitchin. That's tomato juice for me, thank you. Ah, good. Oh, Colonel. Colonel and Mrs. Hall. May I introduce Mr. and Mrs. And now we won't say it because the guy he's introducing him to is twitching.

So he's actually like, so he refuses to say twitching because he doesn't want to embarrasses. He doesn't want to make it sound like, oh, Mr. Twitchin. That's a great episode. It's the one where they try to make a fancy meal for a bunch of people and it all goes to hell. It's really hard. Oh, yeah. Got it. I need to go back.

I haven't watched that in years. I need to go back and watch some. It used to be able to be streamed in lots of easy places to find it. Netflix had it for a long time. But now it's only on, I think, the BBC, or not BBC. The Brit Box. That's the one. I don't have, I don't have that one.

I have them all on DVD, but I just don't have a DVD player anymore, the convenient one. Yeah. I'll just use my Plex Friends thing. That'll be fun. There you go. Yeah, I'll do that. Good call. Uh, anyway, uh, she, let her go.

So that's it. You're out of here. You can't do this twice in a row. Yeah. Wow. So, so she's gone. Just gonna go right from maternity leave to working for eight months and then more maternity leave, basically. Yeah.

Come in, come in, come in, have a baby, leave, come back, have a baby. You can't do that forever, I suppose. But though she'll probably fight it, is my guess. Well, she did. She got, uh, $20,000. Oh, she won? compensation after being dismissed. Yeah.

Oh, I missed that part. Sorry, pounds. 20,000 pounds. Oh, right. We mentioned at the very top. She was awarded that money. She said, that's already a done deal. All right.

Well, then good job, lady. You did it. Get pregnant a third time. Go party. You made money for your baby making. Good job. Making babies and making money. Well done.

Okay, here's a cool story. This is all video, but I thought it was worth bringing up. Ooh, I'm going to pull the video here. A woman escapes injury after water tank falls from building and lands perfectly around her leaving her unharmed. This is nuts. Really? Okay. I saw this on TikTok first. Then I found out a few new sources. I thought, you know what? This is kind of taking more traction than I thought. Oh my God. Chicken a bucket. Yeah. So look at her come out. She comes walking. Here she goes. She's pushing something side. Holy cow and her head comes out the top. Yep. And she made it. Holy cow.

That guy went to help her and she was fine. She's all good. That nuts. That is amazing. yeah wow yeah i mean it may here i have a guess here it looks like it's plastic or rubber or something my guess is it's not all that heavy it wasn't full of water when it hit her it looks metal i mean well maybe it's not let me see do it does this video show them lifting it because i'm curious i guess you got to look at how it bounces i've seen some i've seen some versions of the video where they have it's longer but i can't remember if she ever gets out of it on on film um yeah wow So when that lands, when that first lands, let's see, here we go. Yeah, it does.

It might be metal because look how bends is, oh, bends on that side. I know, that tent, that dent on the side is like, uh, damn, dude. Yeah. Anyway, sorry listeners, listeners only. We have a very cool visual with this. Go look it up. Just look for water tank woman and you'll find it. Yeah.

Geez. Water tank woman. It's just amazing, like, I mean, it definitely compresses her. she's it's a little shorter than she is so she's she's she's forced into a squat uh there's an alternate angle oh no that's not an alternate angle wow oh it's somebody posted the same video twice well anyway we wish her well and i hope that didn't hurt all right geez uh another woman let's get back to another woman oh dude this one holy yeah this is pretty nerly this gives me uh anxiety yeah yeah yes What do you call it?

Clostrophobia. I don't really get that that bad, but this gives it to me. Woman wedged upside down between boulders for seven hours after trying to retrieve phone in regional NSW, which is in Australia, North South Wales. New South Wales. Or new. What did I say? North, South Wales. North, South Wales.

It goes both north and south Wales. We don't have any Australians in the chat to correct any of this, but hopefully Phil is out there somewhere listening. A woman was wedged between two boulders for seven hours after he's. She slipped headfirst into a three-meter crevasse while trying to retrieve her phone. Matilda Campbell. Oh, Matilda. There's got to be a lot of Matilda's in Australia, right? I would think so, yeah.

She was not waltzing, though. I'll say that. I never hear about him over here unless it's like that. What's the book with the kids in it? Matilda. Is it just called Matilda? Is that it? It's just a girl, Matilda.

I don't know if that was the book. I just, the movie was, there was a movie, Matilda. I don't know about the book, though. I think you're right. Yeah, it is just Matilda. Damn it. Anyway, Matilda's Campbell's friends instantly, or initially, rather, spent an hour attempting to free her while she was hanging upside down for,

let's see, down before they called Triple Zero for help. Oh, yeah, the Triple Zero down there. Yeah, triple zero. Nice. I don't know why they, it's so easy for a little kid to do. It's just weird to me. It's fine, no. The ambulance said this week,

Mickey the cockatoo. Oh, this is a different thing. I think that's a photo in the middle. Mickey the cockatoo. Yeah, definitely not that. Ah, she's stuck in the crevasse. In the crevasse, show us where, boy, and they follow the bird. That's Australia for you.

Follow me. The operation to free her from the unlikely predicament in the Hunter Valley on Sunday, October 12th, involved a team of multi-disciplinary emergency workers. That's cool. They removed several heavy boulders to create a safe access. point. Then with both feet now accessible, the workers navigated Campbell age in her early 20s, up through the first tight S-bend. That took an hour. Oh, my God. That's a lot.

Seven hours of hanging upside down in this thing. And I can't, like the photo of that tiny crack that she fell in. You just see her little bare feet sticking up out of there. My God, was she, did you say in the article? Like, she had friends. trying to pull her out first. So it's not like, can you imagine if you were hiking alone? You'd die. You would just be dead. No one would know where to find you and they wouldn't hear,

Hello, I'm stuck. Yeah. Yeah. It'd be James Franco, except only seven hours instead of 27 of them. Yeah, yeah. You know what I always forget? I always forget 120. Oh, yeah, 127.

I always forget that movie, which was, so the incident happened here, another Utah thing, and was filmed here. I always forget that's a Danny Boyle movie. always forget like it just doesn't seem like a Danny Boyle movie Danny Boyle makes that is wow yeah I'm kidding I didn't I totally forget that yeah totally spaced it uh well anyway she got out she's fine now she's relaxing having a nice tea whatever you do down there I don't know what you do down there did she uh did she have any uh Tim Tam no Tim Tams are uh is that

Australian Tim Tams or those Tim Tams could be English it might be right What am I thinking of? She had a lovely violent crumble when she was down there. What are the Jaffa Cakes? Jaffa Cakes are English. Bombat says it is Australian. You're Tim Tams. Tim Tams are.

Okay, there we go. It sounds Australian to say Tim Tamm. It does. It does. Tim Tamm. Yeah. Because they all those silly words. Yeah.

Prezies. Oh, come to our birthday party. We'll have presies. Yeah, what are you all doing down there? Get it straight. Everyone's Bruce or Matilda. What's going on? Who's house are we going over to tonight?

Oh, Bruce and Matildas. Yeah, Bruce and Matilda. That's probably actually very common. Which one? They're married. We're going to their house. All right, here's a story for you. Where are we?

Here we go. This is weird. White blobs. This isn't to say people. Okay. We're talking about something else. White blobs washing up on Canadian shores, stump residents and scientists alike.

On an ordinary day, beach roamers or comers, as they say here. Roaming the rocky shores of Newfoundland, Newfoundland. Newfoundland. There's another one of those where you got to... Newfee. Newfoundland. Newfoundland. Where's the old foundland?

They say they're out there trying to find treasures like mermaid purses. Is that a thing, like a shell? Those are those, yeah. It's like it looks like, you know, it's folded over like... Yeah, exactly. a typical cartoon shell like a yes exactly yeah they would open up and talk to you kind of almost

in a cartoon barnacle shells shark shark shark shark egg pods oh I didn't know that really oh really yeah mermaid person is a shark shark shark egg pod okay I had no idea oh Stephanie's yelling wrong all right Stephanie clear us up

no no she's saying it's a sack for shark babies she's she's correcting us that they're not shells they're oh all right well we're yeah it's just the lag I can't tell who she's yelling at I didn't know that that's wild I didn't know that either I assume shark mermaid purses

where those cute little shells where the ends intertwine and you know look all cute I had no idea open that up oh there's baby shark in there yeah baby shark too do do do do it

it's done away but do it anyway these guys are out there looking for all this crap right and the oddest thing might be the occasional moose teeth tools or even a doll's head that's a weird thing to put in the article whatever we have those articles

the dolls that were washing up on shore a couple months ago oh yeah that was weird mangled dolls yeah and we have didn't we have eventually I think we assumed it but wasn't it eventually yeah like a container and it was old it'd been out

probably lost at sea for years maybe and yeah just started washing up anyway weird white mystery blobs or a whole other matter says this article it's the first time I've ever seen anything like it. And I've lived right here in Placenta Bay. Is it Placenta? Placentia. Placentia. Okay. That's a, that's a rough one. I would explain the blobs.

Yeah, 67-year-old David McGrath, a retiree who stumbled across a mysterious newcomers last month. The Canadian Coast Guard was notified. Beaches on the south shore of the North Atlantic Isle were briefly roped off. A federal agency has begun investigated. The blobs raged in the size of a coin to a dinner place. good lord and come in almost pristine white before mixing with sand and turning darker they are sticky and they are this is the main thing indisputably blobby blobby indisputably blobby yeah after that there's some disagreement some of the blobs carry a whiff of odor uh not unlike paint it's probably it's probably paint then or something or some sort of petroleum based deal.

Yeah. Probably water. It tells it stumping scientists. Can they not like put a slice of this under a microscope and say, oh, okay, yeah, it's got these. No, they just walk around and pontificate and guess. I don't know. I'm stumped. See ya.

Yeah. This one smells like paint. Anyway, I got to go. Back to my science. Yeah, so they still don't know what it is. They'll probably figure it out. My guess is it's probably toxic and not great. All sorts of shit breaks and flops in the ocean

And we're terrible at that It sounds hydrophobic They're making blobs You know A lot of hydrophobia in today's episode Of the show Not me though I got this water here

Look at this I can drink it Nice I got mine too I got my My bike MS top 150 Nice Tumblr Which is very similar to the black one
