This is the morning stream for April 27th, 26. And here's the wild thing about that. It is episode 2,999. Whoa, 29, just 2999. TMS, direct to your door. Can you believe it? Man. That is crazy.

Yeah. Crazy. And tomorrow, of course, we'll be 3,000 if we do our math right. And it's going to be going to be a fun episode of mostly just doing normal stuff. But don't worry. Just do the regular Tuesday stuff. Yeah, mostly. Yeah, we'll have some stuff to celebrate the day.

It's a fairly large milestone. Yes. In fact, I'm going to, you know what? I'm going to play this for you right now. Okay. This is some audio I found that I don't know why this found me at a time when we were about to turn the clock over to thousand episodes. Okay.

But it just hit me how unusual we are and how high, high, high up we are in the upper percentile of podcasts. And this will explain when I play it. So this is some dude. I'm not sure who it is. I wish I could give him credit. It was just random audio I found. Here you go.

I don't know whether you have heard me talk about this before, but 90% of podcasts don't make it past episode three. And of the 10% that do, 90% of them don't make it past episode 20. So by making 21 podcasts, you were in the top percentile of all podcasts. as ever. Good Lord. Wow. Yeah. That's just for the 20, 3,000. Yeah. What does that make us? Number exactly. Like 0.0.0.0.01 top percent kind of thing. Yeah. Like, yeah, something crazy. I don't, I mean, I don't have the actual stats. I wish I did because it would be interesting. But, man, I've, you know, whatever. We may not be Rogan size, but we're 3,000 episode size.

Yeah, you know, let him come talk to us when he's done 3,000 episodes. Yeah, yeah. And when that day, you know what? I'm going to bet you right now. I'm going to make you guys eat picky. I'm going to bet you right now they don't ever reach 3,000. I'm just going to say. No, I'm going to bet.

I'm going to think it's safe, yeah. Adam Krola published its 3,000th episode in 2021. Really? Wow. Wow. Well, those are spread out more, right? Because I don't think it's a day. Oh, no, is it a daily source code?

It is a daily. No, it's not Adam Curry, but Adam Corolla. I keep thinking Adam Curry. Adam Carolla's show did 3,000? Yeah, apparently so. Yeah. Joe Ruggan experience, okay, 2,500 episodes as of March, 2026. Really?

Yeah, I'm kind of surprised. We started way before these chuckleheads. They must be doing more, and they're counting. See, we don't count our Fridays, we don't count specials, we don't count. There's other things, but we only count the Monday through Friday normal-ass show. So maybe if we counted all those, we'd be closer to like, I don't know, 4,800 or 3,800, something like that. And you know, Ike horses, they're double counting. That's a question.

Like, do they count? Because we, if we counted our pre-show separately from our main show, we might be close to something that they do, right? Yeah. Yeah, we'd have something closer to 4,000. 4,000. 4,000. There's a long-running podcast called Horses in the Morning. which is what we originally were going to call this.

I know, we had to change it. A specialized podcast for horse enthusiasts that celebrated its 3,000th episode. Really? Yeah, what is horses in the morning? But it's a definitely rarefied air we're breathing. You know what I mean? Like not a lot of people in this zone, I don't think. Man, I would have said Rogan's at like 300.

Why did I? I would have too, yeah, because I thought weekly. You know, I was thinking he wasn't doing a daily thing. Maybe they're counting all the, because he's got people doing extra shows that are like tacked on like you know big YouTube channels have sub-channels and yeah like 13 channels with different people doing different stuff maybe they count all that stuff

yeah maybe maybe well anyway yeah right like those media like media groups well celebrate with us tomorrow everybody exactly listen we did it the right way people we didn't know no cheating or anything on our part nothing untoward as they say

exactly the race is bothered by the orangeness of my camera so I'm going to I'm going to turn my temperature down a little bit poor guy there we go hey to help celebrate Mr. Freeze oh sorry

everybody can't see this Brian's a little blue there you go I hear no this was this is where it was I was like whoa yeah a little colder than you're lost I said freeze the this reminds me that I put up to celebrate and you can get in a day early the

TMS 3,000 plus episodes a mug of celebration, we call it. This is a long tradition we've had here where when we hit certain milestones, 500, I think was our first where we did this, you got to collect them all, folks. Get the latest mug.

And a decision has been made where the front of course, TMS, the morning stream, 2000 plus established 2011. Back of the mug says, this is about the jugs of pee. That is the meme de jour, these days. That's great. So

the guy whose name I've already forgotten who came up with that phrase, better get one of these mugs. Yeah, get in there. Get yours today. Available now on the store, frogpans.com. You can go to slash TMS if you want. It doesn't matter anywhere on there. We'll get you there. And you can pre-order them now. These are

specialized mugs. We'll only be doing a certain amount like we always used to do in the past. We order one big bulk deal, and once they're done, they're done. So if you want to get on it, you got to get on it now. So do it a day ahead of 3,000. grab yours today at frogpants.com. Brian, I want to hear about all these animals I saw on your photos.

Yeah, so Tina told me, all right, well, mystery date is coming up this weekend. And plan on six hours on Saturday. I'm like, well, six hours, a six hour mystery date? It's a lot. It is a lot because on Saturdays it's usually writing and recording the song for film sack and doing these other, you know, other, I have other things going on on Saturday. usually. Sure. So

devoting a half a day, I'm like, all right, well, I'm excited. And I considered that it was probably due to travel. Like we were going to be driving somewhere and then being somewhere for like four hours and then driving back, like an hour drive. No, it was actually

like a two-hour drive up to Wyoming. Tina decided to take us on our first out-of-state mystery date. And she took me to a place called the Terry Bison Farm, which is a a farm just across the border from Colorado into Wyoming. And you know this because to get to Terry Bison Farm,

you drive past 30 fireworks buildings, 30 fireworks retail. Oh, like shut like the stands, the outdoor stands. Not outdoor stands. These are buildings. Oh. These are permanent buildings. Really make them in there? I don't know if they make them in there.

I think they just sell them there. but they have to say across the border. So now they have maximized it. Exactly. Yeah. It wasn't like that, though. We'd go and they'd be dinky little stands. Right.

Used to be a little stand, a little temporary stand, starts up in like late May or early June. You drive there, you get all the stuff you need, and then you cross back over the border. And then the police pull you over and say, what are you doing over here? Yeah. It's like what people do for their weed in Vegas or windover now. Exactly. What they do for their weed here really is because as you cross the border, back into Colorado, then you start noticing, oh, yeah, they might have all the fireworkplaces.

The first exit here is like 18 different weed distributors, including one with the drive-thru. Oh, nice. Drive-thruza. That sounds very convenient. Exactly. So there you go. Yeah, there's the website for the Terry Bison farm. And they've got a little ghost town.

But the big focus is this train, this train that goes all around the outside of their farm. As a matter of fact, they're so close to the border that you actually cross back into Colorado for the southern part of the train ride. And they've got a little sign that says, welcome to colorful Colorado. And then welcome back to you, or back to Wyoming as soon as you crossed back over. Awesome. Did you do the train? We did the train. And the train, basically what it does is about a quarter of the way in the train ride, it stops.

And then all these bison from the other side of this. Bigfield start slowly. You know, that photo you had up there from their website, it looks like they stampede towards you. No, it is, they get up and they just slowly meander over to, uh, yeah, this looks like an old west, like they're charging. Like, that's what it looks like.

I guess they're used to people now. They're used to people. Well, it's more that they're, uh, they're like, all right, well, let's go over the train and get some more biscuits or little, you know, little, little, little bison cookies. They're like, um, little pellets. so they come on over and they come up to the windows, they come up to the door.

And you stay on the train that you, it's open enough that you can just hold your hand out and they'll come up and there you go. There's me holding a pet biscuit for saliva beast. Oh, so gross. Horn monster there. Look how gross that is. What gross got out the most?

Honestly, like I can't, it's almost, I can't think of anything worse than if I had to like get right up in there. Look at that. Look at that. Look at that tongue. That tongue is nasty. But bison are cool, man. They're big docile animals.

Yeah, they really are. Just mellow. And they've got, like, that one has horns that are fairly, you know, that are symmetrical. There's a lot. I didn't put any photos of these in our discussion, but I could. That have horns that are like, oh, yeah, you, your right part of your head did not talk to the left part of your head about, about horn distribution. and here's this one right here. I'll give it to it.

I love that idea that they have to remember to meet about this stuff. Yeah, exactly. It's in our TMS chat there. Oh, yeah, here we go. Oh, yeah, what? This poor thing. Oh, man, this is just wrong. This is wrong.

It's just wrong. It's like, yeah. I might want to walk up to it. Grab one, hold the other, and just even them up, you know? Try and turn them like you're driving a. driving a big wheel. That's jacked up. That's weird. I figured they were all symmetrical like that.

Weird. Yeah, no. So many of them weren't. Like a lot of them weren't. About 50% had horns that just kind of did different things. But then they also have, it's a full on animal farm. So they've got goats and steer, big long horn. Yeah, if you play that, I don't know.

Oh, I probably just gave you the photo. Yeah, there's just videos in here. Oh, okay. Oh, what's with the coffins who died? What's this? What's this? This is part of their little ghost town that you can take pictures in. They've got like a jail and a saloon and stuff like that.

I love that crap. It's so catchy. It is kitsy and it's cool. And then they've got the world's oldest pile of buffalo shit. Let's take a look at that. And take your picture in front of. Want to Photoshop. What's his name on that shop?

Trump's face? No. I was going to say, I can't think his name. Jeff Goldblum going. That's a big pile of shit right there. There you go. So that is prehistoric. They know that that's how old.

That's like a pile of dirt. How do they know that? It does look like a pile of dirt. And it probably is a pile of dirt on top of the crusty fossilized buffalo chip. Nice. I guess there's testing you can do on buffalo crap to determine its, you know, its age, I guess. Sure. I mean, I'm no expert in the field, but got to think there's a way, you know.

Yeah, exactly. But they've got ostrich and alpaca and you can go right up to the fence and pet him a little foal that had just been born recently that was like, you know, curled up in the hay. It was cool. It was a really, really good time. What's this thing? A steer? That's a good old longhorn right there. Yeah, longfonged steer.

Look at that guy looking at me like, and he's got everything. He's got the ring through the nose, the big old horns. Yeah. And a look that just says, F around and find out. Yeah. It's like that old Bugs Bunny cartoon, just staring them down. I guess that's a bowl, but, yeah. Yeah.

That's awesome, man. I love stuff like this. Rural crap, Wyoming. It's like the perfect place for it. You're like Longmire up there. It totally is. I was visually like, this is where Scott would want to retire as a place, you know, right around here. This looks like his, his, uh, although I like the red.

I like the red rock a bit more. So if you can give me a combination of the two, give me the rustic, old westy stuff, but just give it, yeah, I want maces and tall bluffs. all that shit. That's what I want. Sorry. Can't help you there with Wyoming. Wyoming is pretty, like, pretty flat, except for some little hills and no maces. So I think you're, I think you're Eastern Utah is the, or Southern Utah. Southern, eastern, anywhere around there. Yeah. The whole, the whole bottom chunk would be fine with me anywhere. There you go. Or, you know, parts of Arizona and Nevada, it'd be fine.

Just depends on where I want to get my fireworks and my weed. Exactly. Close to the border for both of those. Yeah, so because of Vermont, Nurtacular, an MS-150 trip and all that stuff, Tina and I are taking two months off. We decided to make it fair and do two months so that one of us wouldn't have to do two dates back to back, but two months off for mystery dates,

so nothing planned until July. No mysteries other than the ones you can't see coming, you know? The ones, exactly, the ones all find in Vermont. or in Logan, Utah or whatever. Any of those places. Well, many, yeah. It's exciting stuff. Very cool date.

Going to a different state on a date is pretty cool. It's pretty wild. It's like, all right, we're crossing the board. This is really cool. I like that a lot. Yeah. All right, guys, you know what else we like? We like games.

We do. This is how we know. Because that music plays, and it means one Brian Dunaway is about to join us. Hello, Brian Dunaway. Oh, is that what that means? Oh, hi, Sky. And Brian. It sounds like an address.

Dunaway. One Brian Dunaway. One Brian Dunaway. Ten Donaway Lane. There you go. Perfect timing. Just watch that movie. 10 Coverville Lane.

If you guys haven't watched film sack yet, we watched 10 Cloverfield Lane, if it wasn't obvious. And we had a great time. Yeah, it was fun. Yeah. I had a good time of that thing. I said I called it Coverville twice. It's called it Coverville Lane. Yeah.

That was awesome. Living on Coverville Lane. That was great. And Cloverville as well. Cloverville as well. It's Cloverville. It isn't Coverville. It's Cloverville.

Well, hey, everybody. Welcome to the here little game thing. Oh, I should log in while Brian explains the rules. Brian, how's it go? I'll go slow. Welcome to the morning half asses, a trivia game where I'm actually going to be giving the two of you the answers. I'm going to give Scott and Brian a category and six possible answers. Three of which are correct. And three, like those horns, are wildly incorrect.

Depending on how confident they feel with the category, they can provide one, two, or three guesses. But if any of those guesses are wrong, you get zero points for that round. One right, get your point. Two right. Get your point. Three ride gets you 50011 points. No, just three right gets you five points. Sorry.

Nice. I changed it. The play with the most points after three rounds wins the prize for their contestant. And contestants have been pulled from members of the tadpool. Support us over there at patreon.com slash TMS. Nice. Scott, you are playing for J.K. Grammer. Oh, I like J.K. Grammar a lot.

I'm happy to play for him. That's great. Very exciting. Still a newlywed J.K. Grammer? I guess, you know, year. a half, I guess. I feel like it up to five in a country with a high divorce rate. I think you're still a newlywed.

I think so, too. And Brian, you're playing for the unknown marital status, Mark Holmes. Hey. Okay, I love it. Yes. I'm in. Count me in. Maybe he'll let us know.

That's what they used to do during the plague is they'd mark homes. They put big red X with paint. That's right. Stay out. This has been March 24. I guess it's been two years. That's right. Oh, man.

since, but still within the five-year, still within the five-year allotment for newlyweds. Let's get to the game. And we're going to start off with category number one, because numerically that comes first. Which of these are Supreme Court cases about civil rights? Because, I mean, we know all these, right? Sure. Which of these are Supreme Court cases about civil rights? Your choices are, Dylan versus Gloss, Schechter v. United States, Shelley versus Kramer,

Loving versus Virginia Romer versus Evans and Gibbons versus Ogden or V I'm not doing V Couldn't go with any easy ones could you No you had to go with these weird things That I've never heard Of course exactly

I'm loving Virginia Yeah you like Virginia Yeah And Virginia What's that Virginia song Um Hey Virginia Almost heaven West Virginia

That one It's the other one Oh meet Virginia Meet Virginia Meet Virginia That's the one I'm thinking of. Here is always a mess. Babe Virginia.

It's a good song. I like that one. Yeah, I kind of like it too. Not bad. Train. Yeah, train. Train who I think gets a lot of bad, like, gets a bad rap. I think train is better than they come across.

You can pick some answers, Brian, by the way? Yeah, you should pick some. They shove train into. Why do I get a hurry? They shove train into a category. You're what in your mouth. Oh, look at that red text count. town is three. I know. He's running his mouth. Usually the hurry up is so that we can save time. You're running your mouth. It doesn't matter if I wait the whole time.

We're stalling while you pick. All right. You guys both picked Schecter versus United States because you like the name Schecter, right? I can't think of anybody more likely to step when your civil rights on the United States. Well, you're not wrong. Yeah, honestly, that is why I thought of that too. Yeah, unfortunately, I don't know what the three that aren't answers are, but I can tell you that. That ain't one. That ain't one. That's a racially restrictive covenants.

Loving v. Virginia. That's an interracial marriage. That's the one I knew because they've brought it up recently for something. Something to do with justice butthole. Yeah. And his wife. Right. He was arguing against something that would lead to that.

to that going away. Clarence Thomas. Yeah, and he's married to a white lady. He's so stupid. Anyway. So I knew Shelly Kramer. I knew loving V. Virginia. I did not know Romer v. Evans,

which is gay rights. And we should know that one. We should. I don't know what the other ones are. What was Evans doing that Romer had to go after him? You know what I mean? Right. Exactly.

Really? Seriously. I assume the V is versus. I don't know. It is. Yeah. Okay. All right.

All right. Let's get to. question number two, let's go sports because you guys are both big sports guys. In the finals I usually am, that's about the time. Well, this deals with the finals, so perfect. All right. FIFA World Cup winners. Speaking of the finals, which of these are FIFA World Cup winners?

Your choices are, Netherlands, Hungary, England, Mexico, Spain, and Europe's God. Put the timer on. Look at, look at, come on, big, bing, bing. I'm done. I am done. He's locked in. Look at that.

Yeah. I'm way ahead of the curve on this one, buddy. Scott, oh, both of you chose Spain. Let's get Spain out of the way because, I mean, come on now. Spain won in 2010. Spain did, yes. But just the one win, which is a surprise. That is surprising.

They're a good team, but I... They're a good team. I thought they had many more wins. Let's see. Let's go to England. Because they're all hilarious after that, right? Spain was great, and then the rest of them were just hilarious. Brian chose England.

Let's go to England here. Mary Old England. Why not? Yeah. They won in 1966. Good for them. I wasn't sure about that. And then Brian chose,

oh, and Scott chose Uruguay. Oh, nice. That's a good guess. Uruguay won in 1930 and 1950. Oh, good job. That means I didn't get it. Those are the three right there, Spain, England, Uruguay. Good job, Scott.

Netherlands was a runner up in 1974, 19, 1778 and 2010. Like, always the bride's made. I remember it did good for a while, but I couldn't remember. Yeah. Yeah. You know who's never won that? Us.

Well, we're not. We're not. I don't think we're in the, are we in the FIFA? This is why I lose with soccer. I don't know where we are with. I don't know. The popularity in the States is really increased in the last little bit. It really has.

Yeah. I always thought it was weird, though, because as kids, all the way back to 60s, and 80s, we were all being raised to play soccer. But then that would end, and nobody gave a shit after that about soccer, like professional soccer. Nobody, unlike basketball or football or something, we just sort of went, no, that was when you were eight. Yeah. And now you're done with that, and we never speak of it again. It was eight when we didn't have any money.

And it was the sport that didn't require any pads. Exactly. And you can just wear a t-shirt and shorts. Right. USA does play and we were third place in 1930, the very first year of football. Oh, is that why we quit? We're just like, forget it. That's it.

That's exactly it. That's unfortunate. That's the only time we've ever made it to the top four is in the very first year in 1930. All right. All right. Chat room and people at home are probably wondering why I'm not playing this. Let me just do it real quick for old time's sake. We're about to hit 3,000 episodes.

Why not? Sure. Here you go. 1930, 1930, 1930, 1930. Yeah, thank you, Daryl. posthumously. Well, not posthumously. He's alive. Oh, wow. Is that a geez?

Oh, gosh. Way to break the news gently to us. He's still with us. He's still there. All right. Well, that means we're going into our last question. And Scott has three. Brian, you have zero. You need. Thanks. You need either two correct answers to tie and hope that Scott gets wrong or go for the big five. We'll have to see what you do here.

Go with the big five. Speaking of 1930, we're going to go. actually, uh, 1930. We're going to go 130 years before that and say things invented before 1800. Which of these was invented before the year 1800? Your choices are slide rule, stethoscope, restaurant menu, bifocles, sliced bread, and electric motor. Which of these things was invented before 1930? 1800?

Is God done yet? Come on. No, I'm not. Look it. Put that counter on. Put that counter on. I mean, it's got to be. That one has to be.

I don't know, dude. All right. I've locked. All right. You guys both settled on bifocals. Yeah. We saw. We watched that movie.

We watched all the old westerns. And we know who invented them. That guy with the with the kite. Well, it'd have to be like, I mean, before 1800, we're talking like, yeah, we're talking, we're talking, yeah, we're talking that era. I couldn't remember it was just straight up spectacles or if they were bifocals. They were bifocals and they were invented in 1784. Absolutely, yeah. Wow.

Nice. Pretty quick. Let's see. Brian went to slide rule. Yeah, slide rule. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, come on. Slide rule.

That's right. invented in 1620 almost almost 200 years earlier 180 years earlier crazy seems like a simple one

you know like they figure that one out yeah this other one I stupidly selected and I didn't mean to I meant to put yeah I was trying to hurry

and I was trying to be a smart ass I meant to put restaurant menu because I'm pretty sure Slice Bed was much later but too bad you didn't because restaurant menu is wrong

the earliest restaurant menus came, were found in China in the dynasty, some the menu dynasty. And prior to that, I guess you just walked up and told them what you want and they'd make it if they had it. But yeah, restaurant menu, bifocals and slide rule. Scott got those two right bifocals and restaurant menu.

Good job. Yeah. Giving him another three points for a total of six. I thought I screwed that up because restaurant menu in my head requires printing. It doesn't. You can hand do it. Yeah. It used to be, that used to be, here's your tablet. It was also on, well, chalkboards.

They'd have it out there and the term a la carte means on the chalkboard. Oh, really? So when you're ordering, yeah, like, or according to the board. So by, when you order something, the term a la carte means,

oh, I'll take that and that and that, those things that are on the board. Oh. So that's kind of like one central, that's like the first central menu and then later they'd give you your individual handwritten thing. Your individual handwritten things.

yes. What a pain in the ass. Sliced bread, because Wicked Kitten wanted to know. Yeah. 1928, believe you or not. Pretty late. And I freaking knew that because of the stupid play retro show. We do stupid.

Oh, really? Yeah, there was a side thing. We did something, right? Didn't we talk about it once? Yeah, I can't remember Wonder Bread or something. I forget what it was, but I learned that bullshit. Slice bread is not even 100 years old. That's the best thing for the sliced bread anniversary in a couple of years.

What are you to celebrate? Yeah. I mean, once we put a man on the moon, the sliced bread thing kind of, you know, spizzled out a little bit. Until it was all the slice bread. It took all the thunder away from sliced bread because then people wouldn't say better than sliced bread. No, it's better than putting a man on the moon. Yeah, nobody claims sliced bread was staged. So it's all good.

As far as I know. Slice bread was an inside job. Yeah. You never know these days. Well, that's great. I feel good as a winner. Who did I win for, Brian? Yeah, you won for J.K. Grammer.

J.K. is getting, uh, couple of great games here. He's getting squirrel with a gun. Great game. And sworn. Also great game. These are good games. Both of which, yeah, need to go ahead and get these, both of these, uh, uh, activated this summer because they, if you don't get them activated before September 3rd and October 7th, respectively,

you will get nothing. You won't be able to do it. Yeah. Just can't do it. Just do it today. You'll be fun. You could still keep that code though. I mean, you could just, you know, you can printware of the code and tattoo it on your arm or something. Yeah. Love it. Love it. Uh, but Don't worry, Mark Holmes. You're getting a copy of Damon X Machina.

Machina. Damon X. Machina Titanic Scion. They, like, put every word in here that people would mispronance, right? Damon X. Machina, Titanic, Zion. I think that's some kind of MEC game with MECs, I think. Mechanize walking MEC robots. Yeah, I think so. That wouldn't MEC sense.

Congratulations. You're getting those. That one also needs to be activated before January 5th. So get it activated right away. Why worry about it? Just get it activated. Yeah, January may seem like a long time, but, you know, don't procrastinate your code entries.

Congratulations to everybody. Yep. And Scott Fletcher would have this to say. Congratulations. I would have this to say to Dunaway. But I would remind everybody that tomorrow, Donaway and I are getting together for what we call watch retro. Old cartoons and animation from yesteryear, weird stuff we find,

including a regular ongoing series. We're going with until we're done with it, because it's short. Mighty or bots. The Mighty Orbots. Which is way better than it deserves to be. Really? Yeah.

The animation is shockingly high quality. Wow. Yeah. The story's fine. It's no worse than any of those other 80s like Voltroni kind of stories. But it's surprising how good it is for a thing that, well, it got buried because they got sued into the dirt by Tonka. By Tonka. Because they said it was too close to go bots.

So they kind of got screwed on that front. And so that's more wide-ended early. But, you know, we're having a better time than I think we thought we might with that thing. Good. That's good. So anyway, that's on tomorrow night at 4 p.m. Mountain Time. And we'll, of course, talk to you Wednesday before ahead of play retro. Is there anything else you'd like to say in your defense?

I'd just like to say, thank you guys for hanging out with me today. It's been great. Well, it's always fun hanging out with you, man. Yeah. It gives me fluttery feelings in my loins. You might want to go get that checked out. I'm going to do that today. Kiss our butts. All right, he's out.

Guys, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, gather around the fire. It's time for this. And now welcome Stephen to the show. He's a huge freaking nerd. Dalla, doll of bills, y'all. Stephen Schleiker joining us for Major Spoilers.com and Hayes, Kansas. Stephen, what's going on, man? Not a whole lot, Scott.

Do you guys want three worthless bits of trivia to get started? Of course. Of course. Always. So the city of Wichita and the surrounding, or you could say the greater Wichita metro area here in Kansas. has more people living in it than the state of Wyoming. Whoa, what?

Yeah, there's like 700,000 in the greater, Wichita area and only 500,000 in all of Colorado. I believe it, yeah. Or not Colorado, Wyoming. Yeah, Wyoming. Is that why people beef on the idea that they only have, no, they have two. It's the smallest population, it's the smallest populated state in the nation per capita. Yeah. So somebody was.

They should even get a vote, really, you'd ask me. Well, it's funny you bring that up because sometimes. people are mad that they have as many representatives as they actually have in Congress. They should have less than they have because they represent so few constituency. What am I? Constitians. What are my freaking, what's his name from old brother where art thou? It's your constituency.

Yeah, no, I don't know why that is, but there's some beef about that. Like they have too many. They should only have two and they have four or so. I don't know what the deal is. I don't understand. All right. Worthless bit of trivia number two. Virginia's state slogan.

Virginia is for lovers is not a reference to the loving v. Virginia case. Well, that I kind of expected. Some people get that confused, though. Really? Some people get that confused because that was a very landmark case

that allows interracial marriage. Sure. The thing that I will, to my death, will never understand why that was ever a problem with anybody. Right. I mean, I don't get it. Yeah.

I don't get it. Like, look, we don't. I mean, there are a bunch of white supremac that would disagree with you Scott. Well, of course they would because they're dipshits, but my point is like I don't know, I got this just weird thing that was maybe I was just born this way, but if you, if two people

go off and have a consensual, happy life, I don't think I should have to, I shouldn't be able to say shit about that. Of course, of course. Where's the pursuit of happiness, you dumb asses? We're intelligent, logical human beings. I don't get a, I don't get it. Yeah, if you want a real eye opener, though, go and look at anti-mesegenation laws by state to see when each state was like, oh, yeah, we're totally fine with interracial marriages and other states that were like,

no, we're going to be the last holdouts on this. Oh, I'm afraid to look. It would probably disappoint me more than it would impress me. Yeah. It would definitely like. So let's just say Utah and Colorado both approved it between 1948 to 1967. Okay. That's still too recent.

Kansas allowed it. Kansas allowed it before 1888. Wow. Kansas. You guys, you know what? Just take a guess. Just take a guess which states might have been after 1967. Well, I'm going to guess Alabama.

Yep. Mississippi. The whole of the South? Yep. Hold on. Here's a map. I've just found a cool map. It's the same one that I'm looking at on the Wikipedia.

Yeah, it's the Wikipedia. That's funny. I mean, it's funny that Washington. Washington is kind of the like, we're kind of a lot. Otherwise, it would be a nice little gradation from top left to bottom right. Yeah, because the greens, the greens are all prior to 88, not 1888 to be said. Which is interesting because. Oh, so then, oh, gotcha.

So really it's like greens first, then yellows, then red. Yes. Oh, interesting. And the whites, the whites never had laws against it. That sounds funny to say it that way. The whites. But the gray, I guess. These gray states didn't have it.

But out here in the West, we were like, yeah, we made it into the mid-1900s. Everybody down south is like, no! It's like planting our feet. Final bit of worthless trivia. Betty White was born before sliced bread was invented. Oh, my Lord. You know what my favorite one of those is? My favorite one of those is that George Washington didn't know dinosaurs existed because he died before the first fossils were discovered.

Oh, really? Oh, wow. That's crazy. I love that. That is. Makes you think, you know. What the hell is that beast? What is this?

Oh, my teeth are falling out. I cannot tell a lie. All the stereotypes. Well, Stephen, you're here to talk about nerd stuff. Yes. Yes, as well as nerdy trivia stuff. Absolutely. We're going to get straight into it.

I'm so excited about this, and I'm really curious about your take. But a Clayface teaser trailer dropped, and reactions are all over the place, but they're going for a horror movie. And I think James Gunn, didn't he come out and say straight up says, don't confuse this with like what maybe you expect it to be a superhero, darker superhero story, or a villain story.

This is a horror movie. But this is still part of the DCU. Like this is part of James Gunn's DCU. Okay. Yeah, he went in the same conversation. He said something about how this happens just before the Superman story that we got with the last Superman.

Oh, really? Okay. Something like that. Yeah. Yeah. It looks really great. And I think this is a great example when we talk genre theory with people

that superheroes are not a genre of movies, but you can use superhero or comic book movies as a way to tell stories within different genres. So Clayface is a horror movie, a body horror movie. You look at Captain America, the First Avenger, is a World War II movie. You look at Winter Soldiers, a Cold War movie, so on and so forth.

And when you take, the first Ant Man, a comedy heist film, when you take this idea of comic books and you overlay them on top of different genres, you make them work better than when you're sitting there just saying, oh, no, this superhero movie is just a superhero movie. And so I think that that's why this is going to have some teeth with it. My favorite Clayface is the one from the Harley Ewing Carton animated show.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I like. 100%. I'm like seeing this and I'm like, where's the guy who talks like this? He's great. I think it's Alan Tuding. It's Tutic, yeah. Yeah.

It's so good in there. Yeah, I saw this and got real excited because I like horror movies and also I just, I think this is one that is deserving of a weird take like this. Yeah. You know, get nice and dark. Do they, are they going to get into who his, like Clayface is traditionally whose nemesis or who's. Batman. Batman. Yeah, it's part of the Batman Rokes Gallery.

So do you think that any of that plays into the larger universe or do you think? There is not any actor cast in this. movie that is listed as Batman. Okay. So maybe there's some reference toward the end or some weird thing, but there could be something at the end. I wouldn't hold my breath. I think that this is one that we could definitely

just say, hey, let's make a horror movie called Clayface and just leave it at that. Because it would fit. I don't know. I feel like any opportunity that Gunn has to put something at the end of a movie is going to do it. I mean, I'm sure they are, they will. But I think if people go in expecting

a big fight between Clayface and Batman. That's probably not going to happen. Yeah, they're not going to do that. But I could see them going, you know, the Batman, the first one, and now the one, the second one, that totally would accept a villain like this.

Oh, and it totally fits with the visual scheme that we see here in this trailer. Yeah. I'm all in, man. I don't know who this kid is, though. I say kid. He's probably 30.

Whatever he is. Who is this play face? Tom, Maurice Harris, or Harris, he doesn't, I mean, he has a pretty good list. The one that people may know. know him from and I think it's just a minor role is in the gentleman uh which is a um a guy richie film that i that i really like that movie's awesome yeah yeah so is the tv show looking at him totally fits that uh yeah uh jay oh no never mind never i was going to say he's on white lotus

but no he's in white lotus yeah no he's got a bunch of other ones like white lines and suspicion and um i think he's got no that's the director who um has a uh Black Mirror episode under his under his belt But yeah he's got he's just kind of all over the place Wait This guy's name again Yeah

Reese Reese Reese Reese Harris or Weird he's not on ImbB is not in the top credits For his movie Scroll down though Scroll or just click on see all and you'll See him as like the third or he's on the right side Second from the top on the right Okay that's odd though

But it is low it is lower than it should be for the namesake of the of the main character. Yeah. All right. Well, you know what? I'm all in. Look, he was in a Doctor Who episode called Dot and Bubble. Oh.

Which is the one where the doctor finds some weird shit and then tries to solve it by the end of the episode. It's like a British man. He's a British man or Welsh man, actually. Oh, he's a Welsh man. It's part of the, oh, I always, I'm going to mispronounce it. In Kudy, Gotwai? No, it's not in Kudy. It's like.

Oh, yeah. I know who you're talking about. I was really good of pronouncing it when they first announced them and I memorized and then I lost it. Chewetel Edgidafor. Not that one? That's the one. That's how you pronounce it. Okay. That's the one I always get wrong.

One of many. I have a list. Anyway, that's, in shooty got one. There you go. Thank you, Fleming. Very nice. Thank you, Fleming. Well, that's great.

Will you watch, oh, Wednesday. We have a date on this thing? October 23rd, I believe, is the release date. So we're getting it this year. Awesome. Very excited about that. Also, there's a, I don't, I missed this entirely, and it is something I'm interested in. You did. But the Superman, Spider-Man, Superman crossovers.

Yeah, I hear they're good, like actually good. Yeah, no, they're really good. Like, I really enjoyed the Batman Deadpool crossover event that Marvel DC had a couple of months ago. Yeah. But in April, end of April, DC did Superman Spider-Man, and last week, Marvel did Spider-Man Superman. Wow, both of them are hits out of the park. They are really, really good. And if you are, so kind of a little context, this is the, what is it, 50 years since Superman and Spider-Man had their first crossover.

So it's kind of the first intercompany crossover 50 years ago. And so it's kind of a big deal, but they bringing out some great creators to do these stories. Yes, some of them are very schmaltzy, but I think that they really hit a good spot to show you what can happen when you put your differences aside between I'm a Marvel or I'm a D.E. and just say, what could we do if we told some great stories of Superman and Spider-Man or Spider-Girl and Supergirl teaming up? What would that look like? And I think that both companies have knocked it out of the park. Now, Superman Spider-Man is already going back to print.

It's getting ready for its second printing. And I'm going to guess that Spider-Man Superman is also going to get a second printing. So if you didn't get it the first time, I would imagine you can still get a copy. And yeah, they're very good. Are they, is this how they always do it where each company makes their own take, does their own thing? Yes, because you don't want to have D.C. going, well, we're the only company that printed the Superman Spider-Man comic book. So you're giving each company a chance to do it. Now, that's not the case with all companies.

For example, Dynamite Entertainment has a crossover between Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, and Harley Quinn. And that is just totally a dynamite crossover event that DC is tagging. their name onto it, but you're not going to see DC release a Harley Quinn-il-Vira crossover. Okay. Yeah. That makes sense. Okay. That makes sense. But in the Marvel DC case, I could see why they would have that. Yeah, they're trying to share that because, I mean, if it was only DC doing the Superman Spider-Man book, DC would make a crap ton of money. Yeah, they would do it. And so this is the way to even that playing field going, okay, well, you can also make some money off of this as well. It reminds me of what they did with Capcom and Namcoe did this when they made Tekken versus

Street Fighter and Street Fighter versus Tekken. It was the same idea. Two totally different kind of takes on the fighting genre. And in that case, they were also quite good. Both of those were, so. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. So if people missed it, go, go to your comic bookshop and pick up physical copies.

I think you're going to want the physical copies on these. The digital copies are just fine, but I think everybody's going to want a physical copy of this one or these two. Well, that leans directly into our next topic, which is sales of comics in 2025 were good, like really good. $2.2 billion in retail sales at comic book shops in 2025. That's up roughly 30% from quarter to quarter year to date. And so that's actually a good sign that the comic industry is somewhat recovering. Post-COVID, post-Diamic distributors collapse. We are seeing basically two distributors rising out of this mess.

You've got lunar distribution and you have Penguin Random House. So instead of a monopoly, we're starting to probably end up with an oligopoly in this. But, hey, if you can get more comics into shops, that's great. Both of them have announced initiatives to get more manga into comic shops, which if they can get more manga into comic shops, that'll be a boon for comic shops. Well, I was going to ask you, what do you think the drivers of the increased sales of the 2025 results were? Is it that or is it something else? Some of it was Batman Deadpool. But then there was there were a couple of other event.

I'm trying to remember what the other events in 2025 were. But there were a couple of big events that got people going into stores. Even though we saw many comic book publishers shrink like Boom Studios, Mad Cave Studios, Dynamite, IDW have all had big layoffs in 2025 and early 2026. So I think it's just people are really getting back into into reading some comics and some Big Event Comics do help that. One of the other things was these blind bag variants that the publishers are putting out are a big driver of sales because, hey, maybe I can get a Jay Scott Campbell variant cover, you know, one in 5,000 or whatever that it is. And so people are buying multiple copies of those issues so that they can try and get the, you know, kind of like opening a pack of Pokemon cards. Battle Beast has done really well with that

And of course that is because of the popularity Of the Invincible show on Amazon So there's a lot of those things tying in And then of course you do have manga sales Bringing that up as well Is this a good time to binge that The cartoon? Invincible?

Yeah, you're only about halfway through The end of season four Takes you about just over halfway In the entire Invincible run. Okay. That's where I thought we were kind of starting to get and I was starting to get an inch to the I've been letting it pile up is what I'm saying the current season though the last episodes of the current season dropped right with the viltramite war and everything I believe yeah yeah the Viltramite war and everything I don't know my son

has been binging this all the time I don't know if the final episode has dropped but I know that the Viltramite I sat down to watch that that big battle sequence with him on Friday so geez is it cool yeah here's the thing I've watched as well it is really good but here's it's bloody it's bloody and I don't know what it is But if I'm tired, animated fighting puts me right to sleep. Now, the animated like, oh, here's what we need to do. Oh, no, Mark's been hurt. Oh, we need to blah, blah, blah.

We're going to get this, blah, blah, blah, blah. Great with all that. As soon as they start punching each other, and it's like to... ASMR for Brian. Whatever it is, puts me right to sleep. It's like, weird. Now, some people have been complaining a lot about the animation. in that that it's kind of low quality. I'm fine

with it. Yeah, I'm fine with it too. Yeah. So, yeah, there's that issue. We've been spoiled by into the spiderverse and, uh, K-pop demon hunters and all this stuff. Yeah, they need to be, they need to be gen Xers like us and be raised on the two frame per second bullshit. We had to watch.

Filmation garbage. Yeah. Exactly. All of it. All of it was low rent. All of it was to save money. All of it was reused. Like that was our way of life. So when we see something now and it gets maybe a little budgety, we're It's still better. Still better.

Right. But the kids, the kids don't know. Also, the violence level is straight up Brian Otley's, you know, crazy, crazy bloody eyeballs flying at you. Hands going through bodies and coming out the other side holding intestines. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

So if that's what the fans want. Yeah. Yep. Uh, well, that's cool. Let's talk about this article up on major spoilers.subsac.com. The 100% certified human made comics. Tell me more. A lot of people are concerned about AI invading.

the comic space. And so Matt Kent, who does a lot of really great indie comics, his publishing company, Flux House, has introduced the 100% human-made label that is a, what is it, the copyright CCEA, anybody can use it, copyright-free image. Oh, like, hey, creative commons. That's what I was thinking. Thank you. That if anybody wants to use this label and put it on their comic book to let readers know that no AI, has touched the making of this comic, then they can do that. And I think that we're going to see more of these bespoke kind of labels showing up on comics. That's what I think, Scott, you need to lean into with your art.

This is bespoke art posted. Oh, your potato man. Your potato man kind of hit a little close to home. A lot of people said, he says, I don't even think I've met you. How do you know what I look like? Things like that. Yeah, this is becoming more common with a lot of folks. and I'm seeing it in the gaming business,

a lot of Indies are publishing games where in the credits or sometimes right up front, they have some sort of label or declaration saying none of this, you know, zero of this game was developed with the AI. So it's really, it's becoming a sales point. It is. Right. For creative work anyway, you know.

Yeah. And I think if more creators start putting either this label or creating their own, you know, handcrafted original digital art by Scott Johnson. That's right. I think more people will respond to that. Here's a disclaimer. I don't build.

Rock puzzles, monthly puzzles with AI, but I test them with AI. I make me, I test it and say, I'm able to figure this out using yeah, nothing wrong with that. That's what this stuff should be good for. It's what stuff we should use technology for. 100%. I don't want it drawn my art. I want it solving my math. You know? Exactly. Make me dumber. Help me figure out how many hours we've been doing this show.

Yeah, help me be stupid or please. Well, hey, this is all good stuff. find more at major spoilers.substack.com. In the meantime, while we went for that domain to swing over after your battle.

you know yeah stay out of the cookie jar um guys we did it we have a we have an email though i have a call actually oh let's let's let's talk about the jugs of pee let's do that this is about the jugs of pee this is from thomas and it's a call about movie theater attending attending your public movie theater like brian likes to do on the weekly that kind of thing right yep uh here's what he said i think it might be an older call but i think it's appropriate and it's about all the discussions we've had about it but here it is. Hey, guys, in the morning stream. This is Thomas from New Hampshire.

About movie theaters. Recently, you were talking about movie theaters, the people in front of you were talking the whole time. I don't know, I'm very curious. Your movie theater down there, does it have audio description, headsets that people that are blind like myself could use to hear what's going on at the movie?

If not, would you object, if I came down there and I brought someone with them, me and I didn't know what was going on. Do you think they'd accept if I told them I was blind and I knew someone to describe the movie every so often what was going on? Would that be acceptable down there or do you think we would be asked to leave anyway? We would be very loud. We'd would be whispering and be as well as we could of course. I'd never been asked to leave a movie theater but it's not like your movie theater is a little more strict. than any of the theater I've ever been in.

Just curious. Oh, sorry, I thought he was done. Quit interrupting the man. The file has, the file is a giant blank at the end. It looked like it was done. Do they have that option? Because we have a theater. Well, I told you about the one I went into for Project Hell Mary.

And it was that kind of theater with the subtitles for the hearing impaired. And that's the whole movie that way. Do you guys have the headsets or anything? Yeah, they have that at Alamo where you can get the assisted listening devices, the audio description headsets, as well as they have the little closed captioning receivers. I don't know. I've seen somewhere you basically, it hangs on the back of the seat in front of you and you just have it in your field of vision when you're watching the movie. You have the subtitles on the thing below you. Is it bright?

I have no idea. That's a really good question. Oh, curious about that. Yeah, let's see. And then they also have like open caption screenings where the, like you said, the closed captioning is on the screen and you just go to that, that showing if you want the subtitles. Yeah, read the fine text, by the way, everybody. Yes, pay attention to when those are happening. So in the case of the, so the headphone talking to a thing is for the blind.

the subtitle version of either back in the sea, the thing is for the deaf. For the deaf, yep. If you are both, so here's my question. This is, I just realized what a dumb question this is. I can't believe I was going to ask it. I'm going to ask it. Is there such a thing as any TMS listeners that are both blind and deaf, let us know.

Now, see how dumb that question is? They're not going to be able to hear me say that or read me say that. How do they enjoy our content? Like the phrase read me say that. I mean, honestly, it's the dumbest question I may have ever asked. But it's not, it's not. So dumb. You know, it's not out of the realm.

I mean, there are, yeah, that's a really good question. How would one, is there a way, is there a technology? Is something changed where somebody who is afflicted with both of those conditions? And there are people like that, obviously. Yeah. who can't, how do they see or hear or consume or communicate even? You know, the Braille, like they've got the Braille, when it's not a physically printed thing. Isn't there, no, here's where, here's where I might be misremembering something that I saw on a sci-fi movie.

But I thought there was a little braille device that would actually, that pushes up the dots. That is familiar. So it's kind of like a live, yeah, like a live braille. thing that does you know. Maybe. Yeah. So you don't need to get a full on book. Okay, BioCow is confirming yes. Okay, that's, I was also familiar to me and I was also

unsure if it wasn't just in some movie. Yeah, just some sci-fi thing. Yeah, exactly. So that's pretty cool. Yeah. Okay. So there's the question. So I'll ask it again. If anyone out there's listening that gets their content that way, are you a listener of this show? I just, I want to know your

experience. That's wild. Yeah. Yeah. How do you consume, like, what kinds of media work well for that. Movies, TV shows, podcasts, audiobooks, stuff like that, would be curious to see. I've always thought, like, if you were born, I'm not, I'm not, it's our greatest sense.

Sight is everything for humans, right? Like, they say dogs could get along fine if they just, all they have was their smell. Yeah. But for me, I think for, for human being, sight is kind of everything. So I say this, you know, just as a hypothetical, but if I was born blind,

And maybe deaf too. It would be, I feel like I would be really chill. Because suddenly all that stimulation goes away. You're like a hawk with a hood, you know. You just don't have all the instincts anymore. Maybe you do. I don't know. Right.

It's fascinating to me. Check out. Okay, this is a really cool looking device. Let me give you a link here. Oh, we have a look at the one that ICOR just posted if you want to click that link. Let's see here. Look at this. Where did I-Corp?

keyboard is the real keyboard device thing oh here it is that's really cool oh look at that those little dots just like it's it's like a little thing that just pushes up the right dots in each each set of six oh that's really cool that's cool and there's um they go into what like they say google docs is really good with screen reader stuff so use that like just different looks like different stuff voice over tech um but blah blah screen readers that's cool man Tina's grandfather was blind, and so he, I guess he never really took to braille. I don't know if it came out. He didn't hold with it, Bub. He didn't hold with it, Bob, yeah.

But Tina did learn some Braille because of that. I don't know if she can still identify any letters, but she did learn some Braille. I know no Braille at all. If I think about it, if I looked at a piece of braille, or, you know, a, strip of braille. I would need to see that it's below the arrow going down for an elevator to know that that means down. Do you know what I mean? I don't know what you're, oh, I see. It would need

to be next to the thing that it's explaining. Yeah, it needs to be by the thing that it's trying to tell me about. It's like so confused. Like, yeah. Because that's the last time I saw one of those. That is the place we see it like on, you know, menu ordering systems at restaurants, touch screens, uh, things like that where they've got like the little braille buttons, ATMs. ATMs, yeah.

You see them on ATOM? Of course, the ATM industry is very interested in getting everybody's money. So. Exactly. When was the last time you used an ATM? I guess I take that back. I've deposited cash. I still get people who give me tips in cash and I deposit them with an ATM.

It's got to have, for me, it's got to have been, it's got to be like 20 years or something. I think the last time I took cash out for an ATM. Oh, you know, I did for TMS Vegas because the. You still can't put a debit card on the felt at a craps table and have them give you chips. Oh, really? Yeah, you have to still give them cold hard cash. I didn't know that. I figured that would have long been cards by now.

Yeah, nope. Now I actually, so I take it back when we went in there that year, the year I was trying my first gummy. What was that, 2018, 2019? Yeah. I did, we had to do an ATM at that green place because you have to do cash. out of state. Yes. Right.

Yes. So we did, I did get cash out. I got 20 bucks out at a green dispensary. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, funny. So that I could eat a gummy while we did our show. Yeah. So dumb.

Frogpants.com slash TMS is your site for everything, including that new 300 mug. We'll talk again about it tomorrow, but tomorrow is our 3,000th episode. I said 300, 3,000th episode. Be here for that. A couple of quick PSAs programming note. There's no show Thursday.

I have a thing in the morning and my sister is out anyway, so it kind of worked out. Brian will be doing Coverville there in his place. Don't do coverville in the morning. Coverville in the morning. The morningville. There you go. The morningville. Something like that.

Watch me hopefully collect the last 10 Pokemon that I need to 100% that game. The final 10 P's. Yeah. Pocket monsters. Pocket monsters. Anyway, so that's the only day that's weird to this week. Everything else is pretty normal. Except tomorrow is 3,000th episode.

So be here for it. Very much not normal. No. And marvel at how normal it will feel, though. Anyway, when you get here, we're not doing anything too crazy, but it will be fun. We've got some cool stuff from Jamie lined up. So be here tomorrow for our 3,000th. Weird news only that has to do with the number 3,000.

Yeah, everything's 3,000. What are you going to wear? We need shirts that are. I'm going to wear 3,000 shirts. Oh, man, that's a thick underlaying. That is a lot of layers. Yeah, that's a whole Hawaiian. I look.

Are they, are they thin enough that you could. Get away. I bet you get to five. I don't even think I could wear more than five or six Hawaiian shirts on top of each other. Yeah, for sure. I couldn't do it for sure. Anyway, that's it. We're done.

Brian, let's play a song and get out of here. What do you got? Sure. Well, Brina Warrior Princess wrote in and said, it's my birthday. Hopefully it's not taken, but I'm cool if it doesn't work out. Well, you're cool either way, but you're totally cool because this is your birthday, and we're playing the song for you. Brena requested this one right here.

This was a rediscovery for me because I'd seen Alex Melton. I'd gotten some of his music before, just a single. And I didn't realize he's been putting out some albums. Alex Melton likes to do kind of what postmodern jukebox does with the vintage sound. Alex Melton likes to do with the sound of the 90s, Blink 182, some 41, those kinds of bands. Oh, cool. You have the new punk style. And he does Matchbox 20's

Real World in that style. You'll find it on his hypotheticals, Volume 5 album. Guess who's probably going to be buying volumes 1 through 4? Me, this guy. Yeah. Anyway, here is Alex Melton and Real World. Find more great mashups by visiting patreon.com slash mashup guild. Imagine.

I could put a turd in a... bottle. Imagine how gross it would be. Just to plug up the can in the woman's restroom and then I'd leave and they'd blame it on you. The aeo-eatia spouter

with up your water spout. Four on next to the thing with the deal and a dirt, dirt, dirt. It wasn't me. In a him and in the kitchen. It wasn't me. And me, d-be-de-bed-de-de-a-d-d-d-a-bathroom. It wasn't me. And it did it in the shower.

It wasn't me. When I was 91, it was a very good year. It was a year of women giving me sponge baths and wiping my butt. Iron man lives again. Nobody helps him. Nobody helps him. Everyone says it's windy. Who kills a guy with a table leg.

Look, my love, took you down. I'm a mountain and I gather around. I'm a goat, where. And if you see my reflection in that snow-covered hills, landslide right it down. Let's see. Sitting on her crack addict boyfriend, everyone knows it's windy. That's great.

That's great. Indy has table legs that she uses to beat. All right, yeah, it's getting worse. It's really, yeah. It's funny, though. This has been a Frogpants production. Find all our shows at FrogPants.com. You people frighten me.
