Starting point is 00:00:00 3D! How you say 3D! Hey, I'm going to be J.A. 3D! Oh, yeah. That's the way we sing the song, dude. That's how we do it. Every single time.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Old McDonald! Remember him? Fun! Like you still know. Old McDonald. Remember have fun. Yeah. Like you still know about old McDonald these days. You know who I've been, you know who I've been singing about. Who's that? The lady who's going to be coming around the mountain when she comes. I love her.
Starting point is 00:00:35 And she's going to be riding. I just was, I was singing to Holly and I'm riding my brain for a song for her. And that one just popped right in and that's a, she'll be riding six white horses when she comes. And we all go out to greet her when she comes. And I'm like, is she riding? What the fuck is she doing? Is she riding them? Like, is she sort of lengthwise across them? Six white horses? I think her legs are spread on to the whole. So she's straddling six complete horses. So the straddling six white horses when she goes, she's jumping around to all of them as she goes.
Starting point is 00:01:07 Oh, like a kiss. Oh, see, I thought she was in like a sort of cart and they're pulling it. Yeah, she's in a carriage and they're pulling. Yeah. Um, do you think we have, we never find out her name. No, I don't know where she is going and what she's doing. We're joining the song late.
Starting point is 00:01:24 In media res. Because I was thinking, am I forgetting something? I don't know where she's going and what she's doing. We're joining the song late. Inmedia Rez. Because I was thinking, am I forgetting something? No, it's just starts with Shelby Ryder, six, what? Like I guess the asking her to come has already occurred. You're like, you're turning a corner and two people are already discussing this one. Yeah, yeah, it's exciting actually. No, I mean, they drop you right in the middle of the song. You're playing catch up. Stuff's already happening. You have to mean, they drop you right in the middle of the song. It's like, it's amazing.
Starting point is 00:01:45 Stuff's already happening. You have to act like you know who they're talking about. It's like pulp fiction with just like things out of order and you're just like, oh my God, I'm putting this together. What about that song? Someone's in the kitchen with Diana. What's that one? Yeah, do we never find out?
Starting point is 00:02:01 Is it her? Could be. From the song She gave me the visit Dina cross. Oh, yeah, so the extended Dinaverse. I guess Yeah, getting close. She'll become around the mountain extended she verse. Oh Yes Good songs good songs great. Oh really good songs. These are the songs my youth good songs. Great old really good songs. These are the songs of my youth. But to my point earlier, kids today, they're too busy with TikTok to listen to songs. I like these great
Starting point is 00:02:33 wonderful songs of our youth. Oh, I was young. Yeah, when I was young, you used to listen songs like ABCD, EFG. Are you still listening to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star? Yeah, these are two great, distinct melodies. Songs that touch something and also told us to do. Are you still listening? Baba, black sheep. I love that one melody. I know, I know.
Starting point is 00:02:54 If it didn't, not a fan. I was playing this like toddler playlist on Spotify. And there was that song, the Anzko Marching One by One, hurrah, hurrah. Okay. So it rhymes with the num, they do a little rhyme at the end with each new number. So the Ansko Marching One, the little ones, the Ansko Marching One by One,
Starting point is 00:03:14 the little ones stop to have some fun and they all go marching down to the ground. Get out, other ain't, okay. Then it went to the Ansko Marching Seven by Seven, hurah, Harah, the Anscoma marching seven by seven. Harah, Harah, the Anscoma marching seven by seven. The little one stopped to pray to heaven. And they all went, I went, what did he stop to do? I thought pray temple.
Starting point is 00:03:37 I guess it's better than him dying and going to have it, which is where I thought it was headed. Yeah, I guess you're right. Little one died and went to the little ones got a lot on his plate. I just was like, he's praying, he's closing a door. He's doing all of these things that are rhyming with numbers. Do you think of this the same little one that asks everybody to roll over? It's part of the extended.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Yeah. Yeah, for sure. I don't know that one. I know that one by the way. I need to write that one down. What is that one? You need to write it down Roll over roll over They were all in the bed. Yeah, that's enough roll over roll over
Starting point is 00:04:14 I can't the old over and one fell out and do in the head and the little ones said well Well, you're gonna know all of these. I don't think I know that song and I don't think I'll ever sing it. You are gonna sing it in about six months. You're gonna sing it. No, never. You're gonna sing that song. You're gonna sing it in six months.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Emmy's gonna be so happy. And it's gonna be a number one hit. Yeah. You're gonna sing it publicly. You're gonna go to a studio. You're gonna stay down, roll over, or castrogram. That would be so lame. It would look. What? I just put out one single in my career. That would be so lame.
Starting point is 00:04:45 What? I just put out one single in my career. And it's a reboot. It's a roll. It's a roll. A roll over reboot. I call it a reboot. Did you know a scop?
Starting point is 00:05:00 You probably know this. Maybe it was too Lauren. Back in the old tin pan alley days. I'm out. Somebody would. And for this reason, I'm out. They would somebody to write a song, and then every popular singer would do a cover of it, they'd do their own version of it. And then like one person's cover would be the most popular one. But there would be multiple versions of the same song out of the same. Yeah. So, okay, I didn't really realize this, but I've noticed that when I'm searching for an oldie that there are like many renditions, but I never really put it together. I thought about it.
Starting point is 00:05:34 That was like a sort of intentional thing to see which one would pop. It's just, yeah, I know for grand. I think it also went into the 60s too, where Bob Dylan, a lot of his songs were written for other people to sing them, and they became hits for other people, even though he sang them himself on albums. You know, like eight miles high and all that kind of stuff. Yeah. Yeah. But he sang eight miles high.
Starting point is 00:05:59 Well, didn't he? Didn't he? No, no, sorry. Roger McGuin wrote that. I saw Roger McGuin three nights in a row row and every single night he went this is song about a horse What No, actually the song that a horse was the song that horse was in different song Bay Miles high intro was this is about a plane ride I took
Starting point is 00:06:25 The planally went up eight miles I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:33 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:41 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't need any context. I don't want to know. Without knowing it's about a plate, right? Kelly Clarkson, when she sings her famous song, she goes, this song about some eyes. Since you've been gone is behind those hazel eyes. Oh, that's her famous song.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Here, this is a song about someone who's been gone. This is a song about you. That's how I did. And what you did, but what I did, this song, I'm catching you up. This one go T A sings. He goes, this is like what somebody I used to know. And I also like when stage pattern is like longer and then it leads to the big hit single thing. So like in the godee example, it would be like him telling a long really boring story
Starting point is 00:07:36 about, you know, I was in a Miracash. You know, boring. Why is that boring? That actually already started really interestingly. He's in America. Really? What if he said, he was in Montana. I might be a little less excited. What if he says, are you up fans in Montana, Lauren? I'm going to tell you the story behind this song, but I'm going to tell me if it's good about my time. Can you guys hear me? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:56 This song is so worth. We're having a funny conversation. I said, but it's it really that really did feel like I was a ghost. I've had that. I've had that happen already. You are. My way, no, I've had that happen already. Yeah. By the way, Paul, the lighting on you were on Zoom today. Willis, let's not even, let's be real. My nose is running like a faucet.
Starting point is 00:08:15 My friends and not a faucet that's been turned off. No, a faucet that's been turned on. Exactly. Yeah. But Paul, the lighting on you, you do look like a ghost. You look very pale and one. I mean, the outdoor light, I'm sitting right by the window. Yeah, and I feel like I'm getting a lot of nice natural light in here. You are, but for some reason, on my computer screen, it looks
Starting point is 00:08:39 you look like you have to wipe the jizz off the screen. Oh, oh, here, here we go. you have to wipe the jizz off the screen. Oh, oh, here we go. For once. But well, here's my point. Please. What if Goatier, he introduces the song, because he wants to keep the song interesting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:59 He warns everyone, hey, I'm going to tell you the story behind the song, but I'm going to actually keep it kind of dull so that it doesn't render the song superfluous. Yeah. Right. So you will get some more info because all of it boring shit like about the weather, what I what I have for breakfast. Paul, what would you rather would you rather hear a story or hear a song? I mean, it depends on the storyteller.
Starting point is 00:09:25 It depends on the singer. But okay, so the world's greatest storyteller versus the world's greatest singer. So jakey Rowling. Versus. What's for Aliess? What's your aka name? Oh, Robert Goldblade to the conference. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:09:46 What does she write under that alias? Wait, she has like another alias. Yeah, did he Rowling not her name? I would assume I don't know just kidding Rowling is her team. She wrote she wrote a bunch of mystery novels or something under a male alias Well, that's probably where and don't worry. don't worry, they're all about, they have trans stuff in them. I would say, I would say were those books successful? Is the question. What? I think she put them out under the alias because she just wanted to, she didn't want a bunch of JK Rowling fans to buy it, expecting, you know, Wizard, Shit and
Starting point is 00:10:23 Wants and stuff like that. Right. But then I think her alias got revealed before it ever even came out. So it happened anyway or something. Well, you know, like why aren't there wizards and wands in here? Yeah. You have you do one thing and you do it well. One one and that's five wizards. Yep. It's a good fight over it.
Starting point is 00:10:47 No, that's that's a good show. And he fight over it. No, that's a book. Is it like a hungry hungry hippo style? Yes. There's a one in the middle. And someone gets eliminated. Yeah. Oh my god. Did that happen? I wonder hungry hippos.
Starting point is 00:10:59 It's not really a story. Well, I'm hungry. Wait, is it a song though? It goes like this. I mean, there's a lot of people. Um, so I just saw on like, uh, my friends page, she posted like a old post from like years ago where she and her friends did humans doing hungry hungry. I post, did I just tell you about this or I was telling my, no, I've never heard about this.
Starting point is 00:11:24 So they, it's a really funny video. It's like all the people are because each person has a partner. And so like they're down like a wheelbarrow, but they're on they're holding on to like a like a little board on wheels like you know those little things with handles scooters or whatever. Sure. And then they have their hands on that and their legs are being held up into the air. And they're being pushed into the center of the circle where there are Balls and they have to try to grab them and bring them to their side using their mouths or just using their hands. Oh, that yeah, that's not hungry hungry.
Starting point is 00:11:57 That's hungry. Hungry. It's hard to say for me. Make them marbles and then make them catch them with their teeth. Yeah, yeah, and I'mbles and then make them catch them with their teeth. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm in and choke on them. Yeah. And choke on them and lose their teeth. And choke on their pride. Make them bite down the marbles and choke on them. Mm. Mm. That gives me a bad feeling. When, okay, so are they on like hand trucks? Like, how do they? Because otherwise,
Starting point is 00:12:24 I believe that was mentioned in the story. The scooters, I like to call them. I prefer to. I like to call them. I like to describe. We used to use them in gym class in elementary school, and I don't know if there's a thing that you used to use like that, where it's basically
Starting point is 00:12:35 a plastic board with handles on the side and four wheels on the bottom, like the bottom of a hamper or something. And you're just, you are laying your chest onto the plastic and holding onto the sides, and then you're being pushed into the center. And then you're like the thing of a mechanic uses. Yeah, but not exactly.
Starting point is 00:12:54 It's like a half side. Okay, but is it a skateboard with a handle? No, it's a square. It's square. So, so equidistant on each side. Exactly the same on all four sides. And anyone can measure it and it's gonna be proven true. And the first.
Starting point is 00:13:13 I've definitely told this story that when I was in fifth grade, we used to play with those on like, free day and gym class. And I was racing my friend around the gym. I was basically running with my legs, but then using the scooter, it's a curientness sort of pike position. And I flew straight into the wall. My glasses went into my forehead and had blood dripping down. And it was a terrifying or one of your many head injuries as a child. Yes, yes, yes, yes, so many. I of course used to do hand cart races
Starting point is 00:13:49 when I worked in a warehouse of a payroll company. Doodah, doodah. Yeah. I love those things. What is that? The Palette Jack. This is so much fun to write the Palette Jack. Yeah, write the Palette Jack.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Tell me all about what that is. Well, it's my series of books that I write under a pseudonym. I'm a lady. Your name is palette Jack. I mean, Jack and then pal it. Did you work in a warehouse, Paul? For a for a brief time. Yes.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Yeah, me too. For a brief time. I think people must have been so happy to have you around the warehouse being funny. Oh boy, did they? They were like, here he comes, the clown. Sometimes I would have to deliver the mail to people and I, or packages or something that we would get in the warehouse
Starting point is 00:14:38 and I'd have to go up to the other floors and like deliver them and I was always like, hey, I'm not just a warehouse guy. Yeah. You know, like I'm a regular person, just like you often people. I'm so much more than this. I could do whatever you can do, I bet.
Starting point is 00:14:55 That was when I was thinking and using a computer because I only wanna do musicals. That's what you're thinking. That sounds like you. That's when I was a temp and I would just get put into weird random jobs. But to be a temp, you have to take like a typing test. And I remember, it was all computerized and I got off at one point.
Starting point is 00:15:21 I can't remember why you're supposed to like type out a piece of paper that they give you when they time you. And I got it off. And so like everything was gibberish when I turned it in. And the person taking the test, because I got one thing off, and I'm pretending to type. I got one thing off.
Starting point is 00:15:41 And then you can't see what it's typing. Yes, you can't see what you're typing. So it messed up everything. So the entire thing was gibberish. And I said, Oh, I mean, I think I got one thing wrong and it did all that. And she goes, Yeah, you're probably fine. And she just gave me like, like, because, well, you can see it. Yeah, yeah. I think is a key detail. Yeah, exactly. Key to tail. It's a kid to tell. But also, like, what's the worst that's going to happen? Is the company that
Starting point is 00:16:11 Hires the temp for a day or two is gonna call them and say you sent us a bad temp and they're like oh no, we're so sorry Sorry that 18 year old In the pool of other 18 year olds and it wasn't quite up to snuff for you Yeah, let's see. I always felt like and I had a lot of friends who tempt I always felt like that was more stressful in a weird way than, I mean, many jobs stressed me out, but the idea of tempting was stressful because it's like, you go in and you don't know anything and you have to do things and act like you know stuff. That seems really hard.
Starting point is 00:16:34 There's no pressure on you because no one cares what you do. So they don't give you any assignments? No, no, you, I mean, I worked at the payroll company for like a summer and by the end of it, everyone, you know, I knew my duties and all that kind of stuff. But who gives it like no one cares, no one cares, no one cares about ruined people's lives with my incompetence. And people didn't get their checks.
Starting point is 00:16:56 So people didn't get operations. I typed gobbledy gook for names. Banks refused to cash checks. Did you tell Paul? No, never. Why not? Never. Why not? I was a retail guy.
Starting point is 00:17:18 That was always my job. You'd be so good at retail because you're just personable and you want to you want people to feel good, you know, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, and then now you're not oh It depends on how long you let how long there's a cutoff for how long you can work one of those jobs Yeah, and retain like a pleasant personality Is it because the you get tired of what you're selling or you get tired of the experience? because you get tired of what you're selling or you get tired of the experience. Everything. You get tired of living your life and being who you are. Hey, there's an easy solution for that. Hey, my God. I know what the pain was and bring on many changes.
Starting point is 00:18:02 So you were for a temporary? No, no, but I was temporary at every place I worked. Yeah. I was in the movie star. That's what I did. I of course worked in the boat dock and I worked at a coffee shop for about a couple days. I basically spent more time training than I did working there. And I was really scared.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Because I don't drink coffee and those in New York and everyone's like, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look it was the last one of that kind, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, that was like, like it went extinct. Yeah. It was a super dyno bagel. And it was the last one. I know it had dyno DNA. It's kind.
Starting point is 00:18:56 It connected back. Like if you had cracked it open, it was basically like an amber, like, you know, thing with a bug inside, but it was. Amba. Amba. Sorry, I'm doing a Boston Rob from Survivor. Oh, sure. Sure.
Starting point is 00:19:09 So, Amba. I haven't seen Survivor, but I've been told I would like it. Is this the point? At this point, I don't know what you're waiting on. I just don't care. 22 years later. There's no time. It's never too late, right? No, nothing. It's never too late to learn a new skill. I just don't care. 22 years later? There's no time.
Starting point is 00:19:25 It's never too late, right? No, nothing. It's never too late to learn a new skill. Yeah. Yeah. Just, I wanted to just say one thing, which is that. Okay, say one thing and then we have to take a break. Make sure it's good.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Make it good. Well, it might lead to another conversation. Okay, but we'll do it on the other side. Okay, but... So the other day, I went to a paint store coincidentally, this is the paint store where in the alley behind a beastie boys video was shot. I just learned on dope boys from art and marine talking about it. It's Jill's painted out water.
Starting point is 00:19:57 There was a big deal that's playing that paint. They have the big mural. Yeah. And it's a very nice paint shop. It's just like a kind of a hardware store. And I... How interesting, Rain Man. I just mean it's not like fancy, but okay. Very good paint store. Did I just say it multiple times? No, you're saying it's very interesting paint store. I hate myself. No, I'm fine. I love you. I love my
Starting point is 00:20:28 floor and you could instantly tell how many there were. Well, I they dropped paint chips and then I ate them. Oh, no. Yeah, because that they were chips. Yeah. But any who I had learned on a blog of a interior designer that I like called a called Emily Henderson, I'm not British, but that is her name. She posted years ago on her blog of a interior designer that I like called Emily Henderson. I'm not British, but that is her name. She posted years ago on her blog about this idea, and I don't know if she
Starting point is 00:20:50 invented it, but from the blog, I remember thinking that she did, if you're going to paint a room, you get like poster board and you paint pieces of board, the different colors, and then you can hold them up in the different light, sunlight over here, dark, you know, whatever. So then over here, little dark, you know, whatever behind this. So then over here. And I thought it was such a great idea. So then I was gonna do that when I'm gonna paint a room in my house, which I'm doing now. And I went to this paint store
Starting point is 00:21:15 and now they sell foam boards cut to little squares and they have a little label on the back that says, what kind of paint is this? Where did I put it? What was the date? And I thought that was really cute, but I also wondered if they stole that from her. And then I also just wanted to say,
Starting point is 00:21:28 it's great because if you are someone who's interested in this kind of stuff, you can save all the colors that you've painted. And then later, you might want to do a different room and go, oh, this would actually be good in here. And I don't have to buy the paint sample again. Just wanted to share that little hot tip. It's a good tip for our listeners.
Starting point is 00:21:44 You know, you don't care about that stuff. I used to paint my own place a lot. And so that would have come in handy. I'm not gonna paint it myself because I, various reasons, one being I can't move the bed. I need to hire someone to do it. Hire me? You can't move the bed.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Yeah, I can. Scott, do you see this bed? So heady. I can do it. I hire me. You can't move the bed. Yeah, I can. Scott, do you see this bed? So he I can move. I guarantee you I guarantee you I can move any bed on earth. Oh, baby. So you're going to come over and move the bed. How much do you want a bet that I can't move the bet? $1,000.
Starting point is 00:22:19 $1,000. Yeah. Okay, so if I come over and move the bed, I win $1,000. But if I can't move the bed You have to move it you give us away from the wall into the center of the room in Ten minutes. Yeah, you can't take your time limit because you can't take all day I don't want to hear you huffing and puffing in there for hours All right, we have to take a break.
Starting point is 00:22:47 All right. Our back. Yeah, I know. We're talking about paint. When were you talking about a weakling, you are? Yeah, that's what we were really talking about. That was the subtext. Hey, you're going to take all day to move a bed.
Starting point is 00:23:07 All I wanted was 23 hours, not all day. Okay. Okay. You're gonna stay up for 23 hours moving a bed in a large. Yeah. Fine. And I know your place is haunted. Yeah. If I stay the entire night, I win $10,000. That's true. Yeah. I remember when it used to be a million dollars if you stayed overnight on a house. Inflation, man, it's gone down to 10,000. It's only 10,000. Yeah. This is what I want to say to boomers.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Like when you were young, it was just a million dollars. A million dollars. Yeah. Bob Hope. Do you, do you, when you, but I just want to touch back on the paint topic for a second. Yeah. When you are in your home, do you think at all, I know Paul does.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Do you think at all about decorating or you just go, someone else has got that covered? But do you go, I wish this was like this, I wish this thing was like this. I, in the first place that I bought my condo, I decorated it myself and I was watching trading spaces a lot. This is in the turn of the century. So your room was covered in seashells glued to the wall? Yes, and straw.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Ha, ha, ha, ha. No, but I think they, because it's on camera, I think they would use these bright colors and stuff like that. So I got tricked into that. I'm thinking, oh, okay, I'll paint one wall red. I painted a lot of it, this pale yellow. And it just was bad and terrible. That sounds like a disgusting combo.
Starting point is 00:24:44 And then some brown as well. It was terrible. And so now, now I, and also the place. Is this a prank show? Yeah. It kind of is because like truly, people would be so upset when they go back in their house. Because the first prank show were the,
Starting point is 00:24:59 they were so cheap. First prank show where they pranked the home viewer. Yeah, and the home. They're fucking with us. They were pranking homes. This guy, there was one designer who would always put like, little like Humpty Dumpty's around the room. It was just really weird, like very farm themed.
Starting point is 00:25:15 That's very, very unique. I mean, I don't know if that was Humpty, huh? He was an actual egg. He was an egg, it was kind of his fetish, I guess. No one mentioned it ever. He was a big egg man who wore pants. That is, I guess. And then I mentioned it ever. He's a big Eggman who wore pants. Yeah. Well, he's very fragile. But so finally when I moved to a different place,
Starting point is 00:25:33 we just keep everything white, basically, or off white. Yeah. Yeah. It's just so much better and so much calmer. And yeah, way better. And then this is... I like colors. You like, well, I mean, you have this is- I like colors. Yeah. Well, I mean, you have,
Starting point is 00:25:46 it depends on the space too. You have where you are right now. Yeah, well, my- I'll just say your address if that's okay. But your podcast space has great wallpaper. And I think if it's like a smaller room that's used for a special purpose or like a powder or something like that,
Starting point is 00:26:03 you can look great wallpaper, you know? Yeah, I've done some wallpaper. Yeah, and the director of powder. Powder. For your Daniel powder. Yeah, powder. You think, powder ever say you had a bad day. When he's like getting hit by lightning, he's like,
Starting point is 00:26:21 the character powder. Yeah, I had a bad day. I had a bad day. I had a bad day. Do you think that's always inspired by powder? Probably, because the singer's name is that. So yeah, that makes sense. The song would be inspired by a character that would have been a winner.
Starting point is 00:26:34 He would have been a winner. That's a very nice song. Everybody was calling him powder and it made him have a bad day. Yes. And that's the story of some sort. He's like, no, I have hair. I have, I have tan skin. Yeah. We have no idea what he looks like by the way. Oh, I know exactly what he looks like. I can you do exactly you can show me know you can show me five
Starting point is 00:26:53 inch or inch pictures of different people and one of them are is Daniel powder and I'll tell you which one is Daniel about I really wish I could get a lineup going really fast without you seeing just pick just pick five red you can Just pick five random pictures no For random ones and one and then we'll see if we can this would be great three-chart Steve the Lauren I can identify you Daniel Bouter. Honestly. I'm looking at him now. I wish I could send you a game What if I look at five other people That's not to I typed in I typed in the reverse.
Starting point is 00:27:28 What if I run around all the bases now? Because I'm the same. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Scott, you said he's Tan, and he is really Tan. And then I typed in Tan Men. And that's like a name of a Japanese dish. And that's all it's about. I'm like, there's not,
Starting point is 00:27:44 they don't have one picture of a tan man. And it's, so tan men is just, oh, oh, oh, it's, it's in another, okay, got it. Ten men. It's a rum and soup. Got you. Okay. But I'm going, I want to see a tan man. And I want to see multiple. I want to see a tan man. Oh, can you want to see him together or separately? Yeah. I want to see a 10 man eating 10 men. I want to see 10 men eating 10 men.
Starting point is 00:28:10 I want to see five 10 men eating 10 men listening to Daniel powder while watching powder. Yes. So they're playing the song over the movie. Is this a t-shirt? Yeah, that's a t-shirt, but it has to have that sort of screen. Remember, like in the 90s, when t-shirts had a sort of 3D, there was a period of time where it was trendy to have a little 3D image on your t-shirt. I mean, that was a child, so I had this. And it was like, if you turn one away, it kind of looked like something else. What the fuck are you talking about? It was like a
Starting point is 00:28:41 little piece of plastic kind of attached to your shirt. It wasn't a holog about? It was like a little piece of plastic, kind of, yeah, kind of attached to your shirt. It wasn't a hologram. It was like squishy scratchy lines on it. It was lenticular. Okay. And then you have, it'd be like a cat. And be like, when you first look at it, it's like a nice kitty.
Starting point is 00:28:58 And then when you go sideways, the cat seems very angry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I know exactly. Or the reverse could happen to you, I guess, where you're like, that's an angry cat. And then you're like, oh, wait a minute, no, it's a nice cat. Oh, thanks God. Fuck, that's wild.
Starting point is 00:29:15 It's pretty crazy, man. What teachers can do these days? I remember when there were picture books when I was little that had they would sometimes it would just be the cover but sometimes it would be the whole book where it would be all those sort of lenticular but it didn't the image didn't change but it was it had depth you know what you mean it looks kind of 3D and you it was very satisfying scratching feeling and sound that you make on it But I remember being fascinated by them
Starting point is 00:29:46 because they were beautiful. They were really beautiful to look at. Here's, I have a question about children's books that Lauren maybe can answer and Paul, Paul made a way. I mean, I was a child. But when you were a child, you thought like a child.
Starting point is 00:30:01 I thought I acted like a child when I became a man I probably chose to. Yeah, that's it. Yeah. Okay, so I've been reading... I've been reading these children's books that we have to... My daughter. I'm so weird.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Okay, so when I was a kid and I read children's books to myself, I don't remember all of them trying to make the adult cry. Oh my God, they're so, these books are the fucking tenderest books. What the fuck? Where do you go on? I just quarter- I haven't read in quarter- It's so sweet. You know what, she's also at the age where like, when Holly was her age, and I would open
Starting point is 00:30:47 a corridor, I don't like too many words, not gonna bother. Like, but now Holly wants to sit for a longer story. So I'm like, I'll read these longer stories. And that one's not super long, but it's just got, you know, some of the pages are a little more involved. And I'm like, this book is so sweet. It's just about the sweet little bear and this girl goes and buys him and then their friends.
Starting point is 00:31:03 It's just nice. Well, the ones that I've been reading are all about like me the re because I read them out loud, by the way. I don't know. Oh, and she's just like hoping to take something away from the experience. Um, but when, when, when I read them to her, it's all about like me the reader and how I feel about her and stuff. It's all, yeah, they're all designed to be like, I think you're so special and you're a miracle and all this kind of stuff. It's like, hey, he's up.
Starting point is 00:31:30 He's like, I just wanna read a story about a bearer. So forever my baby, you'll be better than that. I'm afraid of that one where it's like then the adult person at the, it's all about a baby and then the baby's gonna care the parent at the end and they're like holding them like a baby and like, this is fucking weird.
Starting point is 00:31:44 It's like, I wanna be in charge here. and they're like holding them like a baby. I'm like, this is fucking weird. It's like, I want to be in charge here. I don't want to show weakness to my baby. Absolutely. Yeah, you don't, you don't want to show weakness. I don't want to be as healthy. Do you have that book on the night you were born? I think so. It's like polar bears dancing on the cover.
Starting point is 00:31:57 And it's like, on the night you were born, there was never anyone in the whole world ever like you. And you're the most special person in the world. And the wind whispered your name. And then let's whisper it together. And now Holly whispered her name on that page. Super like you and you're the most special person in the world. And the wind whispered your name and then let's whisper it together. And now Holly whispered her name on the page. Oh, but that so and she says before I get to it, she's like,
Starting point is 00:32:13 book authors stop doing this. Like just write a book about a pirate or something, you know, it's like, I think, you know, you can get books like that for sure. Talking about pirates, like kids don't need to have pirates explain to them. They just seem to be on board right away. Right. You know what I mean? But everybody's so worried about if two men are kissing.
Starting point is 00:32:32 You have to explain it to your face. Yeah. Dear God. I know. I know there's so many things like that. Yeah, all the concepts that kids grasp without they don't give it shit. They don't care.
Starting point is 00:32:45 But here's my question because I was reading some books about animals and the only animals. Which ones? Well, what do we got? We got horses. That's your question. What are they? No, no, the only animals she's seen are two dogs. Two very specific dogs. Right, in the game person, right? Yes, in person. So when I'm reading these books,
Starting point is 00:33:08 I'm like, oh, the cat goes meow, right? Sure. She doesn't know what a fucking cat is. I know, but she's gonna start to learn all that. It's actually kind of weird. I thought the same thing. I also feel like that's what the picture is for. Well, but that's what I find really fast-needing
Starting point is 00:33:23 is that, and I think I've mentioned this, but like, Holly, I was very shocked when like she was noticing all types of dogs as being dogs, right? And all cartoons of dogs as being dogs. And like, she knows, she knows that dog have like this type of nose and and four legs. If they're tiny, if they're huge, like, she knows what they are, we're out It's just that's that's amazing to me, but captain she never pointed to anything else and said it was a dog Not once Not a chair That's one not not once
Starting point is 00:33:56 She's never once she's never once called something other than its name. She's never once done that She always calls things exactly what they're doing. Exactly what it is. Yeah. But a cat and a dog are so similar, like really what are the differences? When you really break it down. Names.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Yeah. I would say they're the exact same thing. No. This is bold. I don't think they're really... To be exact same. If you saw a cat and a dog, No, this is bold. I don't think they're really. If you looked, if you saw a cat and a dog, could you tell which was which?
Starting point is 00:34:31 I wouldn't want to because I wouldn't want to be rude, but wait. Time for a little... What would be that? Stephanie with Wild Harts. She was like talking about when she was reading these books with her kids when they were really little. She didn't know the difference between a goat and a sheep. And it made me laugh so much.
Starting point is 00:34:53 And she took them up petting zoo and she was like, I don't know what each one is. But now they're supposed to know what everything is. It's just like fun. Some are very hard like a mongoose or something. I don't know if I saw something, if I saw a mongoose, would I be able to say that's a mongoose? Ricky, take it, have it my dear boy.
Starting point is 00:35:10 I sure I would say it's a Ricky Tickie Tavie, but would I say it's a mongoose? I don't know. Yeah, you would. Yeah, you would. Yeah, you would. Well, the fun is going to the zoo with all the animals can be really weird.
Starting point is 00:35:21 Like when, like watching Holly look at a, I don't, I never know how to say it, but like a tapeier, TAPIR. TAPIR, yeah. I'm like, that's a really weird. Like when watching Holly look at a, I don't, I never know how to say it, but like a tapeier TAPAR. TAPAR, yeah. I'm like, that's a really weird animal. And she was kind of weirded out. She was like, it's like so strange. And like, I don't really know what it is. Well, we have these cards. They're like flash cards with animals that Emerald likes to look at because they're black and white and very striking. And there's, you know, there's good ones. There's skunk. There's penguin. She really likes penguin. Perfect for black and white too. Yeah. Yeah. But then and it's like penguin skunk, orca,
Starting point is 00:35:56 stuff like that. And then suddenly there's ring-tailed lemur. They make some fucking leaps with this stuff. I feel the same way. I'm going. Yeah, look really? I'm just like, why are we jumping? Now she has to know what a ring tail of lemur. Why don't we just say lemur? Why don't we just go like, let's just kind of narrow it. Like, let's just broaden it a little bit because sometimes it's just a monkey or something. You know, even monkey gorilla, I start to go, now I got all these types of monkeys and apes and it's like, here's my theory. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:31 So I learned all the animals from my A to Z book where it was like, A to Z for our UK listeners. And this was like last year, you focused on that and you really, it was during the pandemic. Yeah. Yeah. But where it's like, you know, A is for our dark and all that kind of stuff. True. There should, there should only be 24 animals and they should all be a different
Starting point is 00:36:51 letter. So you can just memorize that book. Do you know there are 26 letters in the alphabet? What? Wait, wasn't the show 24 about the alphabet? Were you accounting for X and Z and saying cut those out. We don't need. Yeah, we don't need. We don't need Zebra as an animal. Zebra is, no, Zebra is key.
Starting point is 00:37:13 You're right. So we to the dewey. Yeah, but we need to get rid of X X is a really tricky word with learning, I'm with letter with learning words. Like, why do we need X? We have a CK. We need, we should make up a bunch of. Louis CK.
Starting point is 00:37:29 We should make up a bunch of. We should be Louis X that start with X and then just kind of like get those into the culture so that we can just start having fun things on the page. Like a zylophone is not. We have a zylophone. We have zyna foves. X ray and we have X of. X ray. X-ray. X-ray, and we have X-of-phobes. X-ray.
Starting point is 00:37:46 Yeah. It's not enough. It's not enough. We need more. That's what we're saying. But I do think listeners out there to create new words. But it should be like X-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s Zina Fowl. That's what they do now. Yeah, because this is the kind of stuff we want them to get. They don't want to get themselves. Everyone should be a phobia. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Yeah. All phobia. Wait, okay, so on the animals, who are the picks for each letter? Like, A, you've got to go Ardvark because of the AA, right? Because of the AA, it's so good. And by the way, who's calling an Ardvark saying,
Starting point is 00:38:24 like, well, I'm going to put a AA at who's calling an art work, art work saying like, oh, I'm gonna put a double A at the beginning of this. Like what lunatic named that? Yeah, they were just having fun. I think they're having fun that day. Yeah, this is true. But what about anteater? I think anteater is a more fun animal than an art work.
Starting point is 00:38:36 Fun in the sense of like genocide for ants. Because of the widget looks like a vacuum. It does look like a vacuum. It's probably the animal that it looks like a vacuum. It does look like a vacuum. It's probably the animal that looks most like a vacuum out of any, I don't know, elephant though. Do you know that looks like longest time I thought ardvark and antiter were the same thing? And I think there's a lot of confusion around that.
Starting point is 00:38:58 That's why there's only D1 and we eliminate whatever we make them extinct, whatever the other one is. Do you know why I thought that? Because of the cartoon, the art of arc in the year. I was just gonna, oh, I think you're gonna say about Arthur the art of arc. No, I don't know that guy. All right, well, he's a great guy.
Starting point is 00:39:14 Is he the guy from the famous hand? Yeah, in the fist. Oh, yes, exactly. Yeah. Okay, have you seen the Pride and Prejudice with Tom Wams' Gans from Succession? Oh my God. You're an idly.
Starting point is 00:39:28 I saw that a million years ago, but when I put together that it was him and that, I wanted to watch that again because I love him. I saw for the first time a couple of years ago and it was really enjoyable. So I recommend that rewatch. Great. I know that there's a thing that he does with his hand that I remembered that a lot of people that are fans of that movie Remember that and they think it's very romantic and I forgot to look for it when I watch the movie and I still don't know what it was But it was apparently a very notable thing that he does. Oh, I don't remember that but I always picture the Arthur hand when I
Starting point is 00:39:59 He does it with her hand or he does it with his own hand. He does something with his own hand that is apparently very magical Magical it's not him. Well, man. There's something romantic finger banging. Oh my god Paul was like this isn't it. This isn't I mean there was a finger banging scene in the movie. Yeah Well, they didn't put a ten it's all about how they won't go all the way, but they'll do everything but. Yes. So there's an anal sex scene.
Starting point is 00:40:31 All right. We have to take a break. All right. We're back. And we have some voice mails, right're back. And we have some voicemails, right? People call us, we're cool. Yeah, people, our phones are always. Off the hook.
Starting point is 00:40:56 If you would like to leave us a voicemail, you can just dial, uh, Hague claims eight. Number eight. Just dial that. Don't tell anything else. No, a wild Hag running around killing eight people. Nice. Can you imagine eight people dying at the same time? That would be crazy. At the hand of a Hag.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Yeah. Yeah. I should have to think. It would be crazy. Anyway, we're going to play these voicemails that some people left us. Our producer, Matt, our producer is going to play them. Hit it, Matt. Hello, everyone.
Starting point is 00:41:34 I love the show. I have a question for everybody. I actually took Paul's recommendation to read the Allen car book on how to stop smoking. And I have quit vaping for like a month now. So it's a really great recommendation. Thank you so much, Paul. And my question is, for Scott and Lauren, did they have a book that really changed their life? Like, like this one has for me, and I assume for Paul and Paul, did you have another book that was really effective in your life?
Starting point is 00:42:06 Love to share with you guys. That was such a sweet message. First of all, congrats on that. Absolutely. Congrats. Congrats on leaving that message. Her voice reminded me of this number that we used to call in Chicago when I was in college.
Starting point is 00:42:21 There was this number and it was this, I don't know who did this. And maybe someone on their nose about this. It was the cafeteria lady, the lunch lady. You call her and she had a really sweet accent like that and really sweet voice and she would say, Hey baby, the lunch tomorrow is gonna be mashed potatoes. We got green beans, we have a really nice piece of chicken and you are just gonna love it.
Starting point is 00:42:43 I love you so much. I hope you have a great day, and then you just hang up, and that was it. It was just, that was it. It was just me, a different lunch every day. It was for your school, or? No, it was funny. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:54 It was just like for, it was just random. Every day she changed it. Wow. I know, isn't that funny? I kind of love it. I wonder if anyone out there knows what I'm talking about. It's like movie phone for lunch. Yeah, it was really fun But you can't lunch. Do you have a book? Scott?
Starting point is 00:43:11 I remember reading a book about This is in my early 20s. I don't I don't know the title, but I remember it was about relationships and it was about I remember it being about how like there are different types of people in the world. Shit, what was it about? I just remember the just so it changed your life. The just of it is like a successful relationship is usually with two people who have a lot of stuff going on, interesting in their own lives. And then they meet up at the end of the day and they check in with each other about their own lives and they hear about each other's own lives.
Starting point is 00:43:52 And a less successful. Like not being codependent? Yes, I think it was about codependence. It was a less successful relationship is two people who are constantly wondering what the other person is doing and or like sitting around the house, letting the other person shine, and while they don't do anything or whatever. And so I remember that being kind of like, yes, that's the type of relationship I want is with someone who has their own thing going on, and is not just sitting around waiting for me to do stuff, you know. So.
Starting point is 00:44:20 Yeah. I'm trying to think if I, you know, I think I had different moments with books where I was like, like, red like a cartole or whatever. And I was like, yes. And then I stopped, you know, thinking about any of that. So I don't know that there was like a book that really stuck with me forever or that changed something for me in that way, other than just being books I enjoyed reading. But maybe one day I'll have that book. The only other book I could think of that kind of had a big impact on my life was it was a story, it was almost the greatest story I ever told. Yeah, it was about a carpenter, wasn't it? Yeah, it was about a carpenter from a place called Nazareth.
Starting point is 00:45:00 I do remember a friend of mine giving me Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, which was supposed to be some kind of, you were supposed to get something out of that. Mine blowing, yeah. I remember liking it, but I remember going into it going like, oh, is this about how to fix a motorcycle and then realizing it was a narrative,
Starting point is 00:45:21 like a little ways in and then kind of reading it and going like, yeah, that was fine. I don't remember the thing about it. Yeah, yeah. I mean, obviously the fountain head is how I tried to live my life. Yeah, of course, out of the shrugged. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:35 Um, how to, how to influence people. What is that book called? How to win friends and influence people. Yeah. How do you meet two books and they smashed them together? Hey, more value for the book. But yeah, I mean, I don't read a ton of self-help books. So yeah, I prefer to let other people help me.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Yeah. Yeah. I've had periods of time where I enjoy a self-help book, but that was not one of the then. There's not one that really feels like it you know like the Eckhart totally was the power of now I remember thinking it was all about like living in the moment, but I just called the nower Yeah, I consider hour Yeah, so the power is now the now
Starting point is 00:46:19 I prefer books about pirates and what's that? Hmm, what's a pirate? Yeah. You've never seen a book that. Obviously, when you were a little kid about a pirate, never, never seen one. Yeah. When is the concept of pirates? When are, what is it introduced to people? Because I remember reading Treasure Island and going like, Oh, I know what these are. Well, probably from a cartoon.
Starting point is 00:46:43 No cares about pirates. Why are we so obsessed as a culture with pirates? Well, they seem to be having a lot of fun. Yeah, they love each other. They're bad. They love their fun. They're swashbuckling. You make your own family. They do. Yeah, pirates have a chosen family. And I think that's beautiful. Yeah. So sweet.
Starting point is 00:47:02 All right. Let's hear another voicemail, VM, as we call it. Hello, this is Joe. I had a question. I'm on my way actually to quit my job. Oh, and I'm just wondering if the three of you have any good job putting stories. Yeah, I'd love to hear it. That's really all.
Starting point is 00:47:23 Love you guys. Have a great day. Bye. Good for you, Joe. I hope to hear it. That's really all. I love you guys. Great day. Good for you. Joe, I hope that went well. I think the only job I ever got to quit and not be fired from or have the business, go out of business out from under me was when I did telemarketing, which was the worst job I ever had. when I did telemarketing, which was the worst job I ever had. And I worked there for about a year, and then towards the end of the year, I'd gone home for Thanksgiving. This was out here in LA.
Starting point is 00:47:55 I'd gone home for Thanksgiving, had a really nice visit with family and friends just for a few days. And then when I came back, I had to go back to work and it was payday and I went in and got my check and then I, like went to the threshold of where the phone room was and I just turned around and left. I just couldn't do it anymore. And you didn't get your check.
Starting point is 00:48:20 No, I did get my check. Oh, okay. I went got my check first and I left, I didn't say anything to anybody. Wow. Nobody ever called, like nobody cared. They'd quiet quit. I was quiet.
Starting point is 00:48:30 I had fun. I was quiet as possible. And I'm sure that that happened all the time. The people just didn't show up again. Yeah, you know, when you run a solace operation. But it was tough because I had no plan. You know what I mean? I did not have another job lined up.
Starting point is 00:48:44 I had no other means of income at the time. But I just could not do it. Trying to think if I have any goods, I mean, mostly they just involve me going in and saying like, hey, I got a better job and then I'm going, yeah, I figured. Mine were all just me like dreading going with everything and my being every second of the time I wasn't there to the point. I'm just like, I used to fantasize about, you know, tearing off my servers apron, like Kobe Bryant in the middle of a game, you know, tearing off his jersey and just throwing
Starting point is 00:49:24 it, you know, in the middle of the restaurant or whatever, but no, you just kind of just quit and said, hey, I'm moving on. Yeah, I never really had like a big confrontation with a boss either really. Oh, I mean, I got fired from Marie calendars for drinking, we all know that, but. We all know that.
Starting point is 00:49:44 Favour story. Yeah, by the banana lady. Yeah. But, uh, yeah, you got your revenge with that story. Oh, man, I've been milking that. It's a famous story now for 35 years at this point. Um, but, uh, no, unfortunately, I never, God, did I ever quit Bob and David? No, everything just evaporated.
Starting point is 00:50:08 Usually that's in show business, everything just evaporates. Yeah, I don't have to quit anymore. Yeah, because the show business quits you. What a country. Yep. Should we play a creature? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:50:24 Okay, this creature is called This Happened To Me, submitted by Rosalie Matta. You will tell a short memory that happened or didn't happen to you with the other players. Names and dates should match, even if the story is fabricated. However, if you go with a fake story, it must be an altered scene or plot from a movie.
Starting point is 00:50:41 The other players have to guess if that was a real memory or a fabricated one, and if they say it's fabricated, they have to guess the movie the scene was from. Example, it was 1995. My friends decided to pierce my ear at summer camp. Ice was placed on my ear and then a lemon was placed to catch the needle. This was from Lindsay Lohan's parent trap. Okay. Okay. I mean, it's a second to think well memory. Okay. I mean, one, the one thing I can think of that comes to mind immediately is in 1972, when I came back from the army, I, my father was the head of a crime family. Why is that funny to you? Let's examine that. Why is that funny to you? You
Starting point is 00:51:29 are laughing at your families. And this happened in 1972. You're laughing at your family's business. You're laughing at the army. You were remembering it happened. In 1972, you remembered when this happened. I was telling people about it in 1972. So the story is about you telling the story. Yes, it happens in the 40s. Okay. Never mind. Okay, let's do this for you. No, no, I'm just kidding. I'm trying to think of either a memory or how I've told all of our memories.
Starting point is 00:52:00 I know we've told all our memories. Okay, okay, I do, I do have a story. All right, I was working in a restaurant and a manager came in wearing all yellow and she was, she'd been crying. The year was 1981. Me and my friend New Year's Eve, we're playing a video game. And our goal is to turn the game over, which is to reset the score. You get a score so high that eventually it goes back to zero.
Starting point is 00:52:48 Our aim is to do this before the clock strikes 12 at midnight. We are listening to a top 40 radio station. We are playing the game. We're making it happen. We're trading off passing the controller to each other and it's getting down to the wire. Exactly at 11 bongs of the clock. We turn the game over. We celebrate it and then we went to sleep. celebrated. And then we went to sleep. Wow, that was gripping. That was gripping. I'm going to say that was a real story. I'm going to say it's not real and it's from freaks and geeks. Scott is correct. It was a real story.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Wow. You told me so fable. You're going to get it. I can't remember the name of the game. I love it. But it was like it was an Intellivision game. Do you remember Intellivision? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Yeah. Terrible controller because they have the disc, right? Yeah. Intellivision was like, we're gonna crush you, Atari. Nope, sorry. It's like our city, though. I'm gonna kick Jay's ass. All right. Here's one.
Starting point is 00:54:17 Did I do it right? Yeah, you did. That was perfect. It sounded like a movie. When I was a teenager, this was just a small memory. When I was a teenager, any time I would be... Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, God, I can't do this. Anytime I would be reading a book in public,
Starting point is 00:54:39 my people in my town would just be obsessed with me and talk about me and how I'm a little odd. And they'd even sing a song about me kind of altogether about how I was weird. And they just couldn't put their finger on it, but they always thought something was weird about me. But there really wasn't anything weird. I was just reading books.
Starting point is 00:55:00 Was this the same town where there was a monster man who lived in a castle? The beast. Yeah, he was a guy like, but they thought you were weird. Yeah, they kind of, I know. And then when we were together, it was like, oh, hell broke loose. I can't take that. I was like, that was alive, right? People wouldn't shut out. Yeah. And talking, talking teapot. That was just a blip in their lives. They actually got to be people like at a certain point. But that's just a strange, you were the. They actually got to be people at a certain point. Oh, so that was just a strange one.
Starting point is 00:55:26 You were the strange one because you were books. I know, except this is my point, you know? Yeah. That's just provincial France. I think this is a real story. It is. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:38 That was me and my friends. One New Year's Eve. Okay. I have one. I forgot all the stories that take place in New Year's Eve. Okay, when I was 15, my family took a family trip to Australia, down under, as they call it. And we went to the beach one day in Sydney and
Starting point is 00:56:10 I was with some friend I didn't really know anybody, but I met some people that day Some like other kid. I mean, you know 15 year olds and We were just kind of like playing around throwing a football around and Then I saw out in the water, I saw, it was like a, I could tell it was a body, I couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman, like sort of flailing a little bit, like, you know, so, and I was pretty close to it and I looked back and there wasn't a life card. So I went out, out there, and it was pretty shallow. So it was like, there was really nothing going on, but it was this girl who had gotten a cramp. And, you know, I'm not gonna say I saved her life
Starting point is 00:56:54 or that she nearly drowned, you know, but it was, you know, I helped her out at least. You know, and we ended updating and we got together and all that kind of stuff. Anyway. I think that's fake and all I guess up anyway. I think that's fake and I think it's grease. Yeah, it is a breeze. Hi.
Starting point is 00:57:16 All right. I was in the up. Let's see. Um. Hhhhh. Trying to say I think of your own memory. Yeah, I'm trying to think of what happened in my life. Just think of yesterday. Would you do the movie? Remember, no one knew who the Beatles were anymore. I remember there was one Halloween
Starting point is 00:57:48 where my friends went out trick-a-treating and there was this scary house in the neighborhood that we always dared each other like go up and touch the door or whatever. And how you know it was especially scary to do this. And I remember my friend went up and touched the door. And then a guy came out and he wanted to kill his friend. I think that's true. Wait, he killed a bunch of people. He killed a bunch of people. Did he kill you? No, no. Oh, cool. I was just a witness to all of this.
Starting point is 00:58:31 Oh, you witnessed every single death? I didn't witness every single death. I witnessed about five deaths, I think, right out there. Wow. Yeah. Cool. Okay, that reminds me of a memory, a real memory from when I was growing up. That, um,
Starting point is 00:58:44 my friends and I, um, we loved to hang out, and that's normal, I think. And at the time, a friend was like, do you guys want to see a dead body? And he suggested that we kind of walk along the train tracks And just through the town until we came to where the dead body was So your friend knew that there was a dead body there not just that Hey, if we walked down the train tracks far enough, we'll probably see. I would be worried that he's like asking me Hey, do you want to die right now? And he's taking me to kill me somewhere? Yeah, yeah It wasn't that it was that there was really this person who who passed and they were playing there. And that really happened. Fuck. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:59:37 That's crazy. That's real. That's real. It is real. I remember, I remember, in Israel. I remember I remember this was probably in the mid 90s me and my best friend his name was Beavis. We across America we, of course, the whole country. Yeah. Anyway, not there was like an LSD trip and stuff like that, but it was I don't really remember anything else happening. I remember when we were kids in Maine and We were little kids. We were like a tight knit group of outcasts freaks and nerds. Hmm. And well, we found out there was a clown that lived in the sewer. And, isn't that weird that always happens? It was so, this is like the thing. Kids today don't understand, but if you're an 80s kid, you get it.
Starting point is 01:00:40 Yeah. Clowns were, like they lived exclusively in sewers back then. They weren't all bad either. So we're fun. No, no, they were great. In fact, if you ever had like if you were the proprietor of a circus and you need to hire clowns, you would just go to the sewers. Yeah, they were throwing a manhole. Oh, yeah, and they wanted jobs. They were kind of waiting. Yeah, because their dream was to live in an apartment.
Starting point is 01:01:05 So yeah. So this is why they're all in high rises because they made so much money. Exactly. Don't even get me started on the clown uprising. So I remember this rising like real bad. And then we felt stupid because even though one of us did get killed, he turned out to be just a big spider from outer space. From outer space.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Okay, that's crazy that you didn't realize that. He looked, I'm telling you, if you saw him, you'd look to like a clown. Okay, do a picture. Yeah, right here. Okay, yeah, that looks like a clown. That looks exactly what, no way, wait, wait. You turned to the side, it's lenticular. It's a spider from outer space. Okay, you to the side. It's lenticular. It's just better for matter space.
Starting point is 01:01:46 Okay, you didn't turn. We never looked at him sideways. Oh, we always liked to him straight on. I have one more. Deep in the eyes. Oh, okay, go ahead. So back in like this was the 90s, I was like, I guess you would say I was like a paleontologist. And I loved dinosaurs.
Starting point is 01:02:13 And I started to... Dino DNA. Right, I got involved in this. Like, it wasn't like a museum. It was like, it wasn't in the amusement park. It wasn't a zoo. It was kind of like all of the above combined Which I thought was a great idea and I sort of was brought in to like
Starting point is 01:02:31 Check out, you know these dinosaurs that have been made From the DNA that they found in like amber and fossils and stuff. I know and it's a great way to do it It was a really big thing. So we kind of made dinosaurs and they were aggressive. And every couple of years one of them would get out or be like kind of untamable. Well, they probably shut that program down, right? No, they kept doing it. They kept doing it. Yeah, like, they have iterations. Do they eventually clone humans? No, they kind of just kept thinking it'd be fun to see a trace. I'm pretty sure they did. Nope, they just thought it'd be cool to see a T. Rex. Okay, never. No, never, ever did that.
Starting point is 01:03:16 Pretty. So they never, because this is my, this is just like my job. Right. As a paleontologist who worked at this place, did you ever meet any stupid ass girls who worked the computers? Yeah. Yeah. There was this girl who was always a friend. Okay. Well, I don't really think of people that way. Just idiot. Stupid was always scared. Yeah. But yeah, she didn't die. So this is a joke call. I'll see you again. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Good story. That's real.
