Hello and welcome to Two of the Think Tech, the show where we come

up with not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, but five sketch ideas. That's a good Andy. Thanks. Which reminds me, Andy, when's the last time you did something nice for your face? You know what? I actually did something really nice for my face, really recently, which was that I got rid of my beard, right? I shaved it all off. Oh yeah. And the reason I did this was because I wanted to for some time. Absolutely. But I didn't just have the motive, all the opportunity. I also had the means because I had myself a pack of Harry's razors.

Oh. Yes. Are they good? Um, geez, I don't know, Al. Do you consider excellent to be good? That is the only thing I consider to be good. That's right, your standards are so high that even meeting them isn't enough. No.

And, look, it was actually, look, I got a lot to say about this because it was, and I'm not, I'm not shitting you, Alistair here. Okay, well don't. It was the best shave I've ever had in my life. Really? Yeah, I'm not actually'm not shitting you LSD here. Okay, well don't it was the best shave I've ever had in my life really yeah, I'm not actually fucking around it and that's what's Interesting here is because I've known you as a guy who's had a lot of great shapes Yes A lot of great shapes a lot of close shapes a lot of bad shapes hmm, right? I've had the spectrum yeah, and anyway It's nice to say this was a cut above. Dero say a shave above

the rest. The rest. The rest. But, uh, yeah, I've got more information about that later on. If you don't want to know the rest of it, if you just want to buy now, just go to harry.com.com-thlash-think-tank and you'll be fine. If you don't need to hear anymore about if you don't want to know anything else. They're razors you're saying you know spoiler alert I don't want to know anymore I'd rather just go and buy the razor and have the experience for myself and know what you if just hold your people alike if just knowing that there's a company that will deliver high quality razor blades to your house is enough information to you then just go to harry's dot com for slash think tank has a harry's dot com harry's dot com great for some for slash think that man I'm glad you're included in this that will

stay yeah uh... andy i was starting to think that maybe it'd be good look this is a secret one of mine is i would love if people knew the podcast to in the think tank as because the the you know the uh... the initials are T-I-T-T-T. Yes. I would love it if people knew it as long-tit.

If I could occasionally refer to it as long-tit, you know, much like people who refer to curb enthusiasm as curb. Yes. You know, if people knew... It would be great to, in conversation, right, with a group of people, for you to be able to drop in long-tit

as just like just an expression, right? And the people who know what you're talking about will know what you're talking about. And everyone else, they'll be none the wise. They'll think you're just thinking about pendulous breasts. Yes, absolutely. Which is a thing that you talk about all the time anyway.

But now, now, Alistair, you'll be like dogwishling. You'll be talking on two levels, and the people in the know, well, they'll know. Absolutely, and look, and I have another want, and this want is not okay. This one is not okay, LSD. But I want the people who listen to the podcast known to be known as Long Titties. Every group, every podcast with a following has a friendly nickname for their audience.

But very often, those are in some way things that people couldn't be proud to associate with themselves. Not so long titties. Yeah, no. I mean, look, I guess we could be opening the podcast sort of like Mark Marin opens up his, but we can go, hey, long titters, long tuckyans, long, you know, tittin' 80s, titt you know, tits, tits, nadians, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits, tits which is that people review the podcast on iTunes. But we're not doing the podcast. We're just talking about what we want for the podcast,

but really what we want for the podcast is just to do the podcast. Yeah, that's true. I am now happy right now. You've got all your wants off your chest. I've got all my wants. You've got your long tits off your chest and you feel good. Andy, what about this? Okay, this is, I mean, I technically thought, I thought of this idea while you were fiddling with the knobs.

So this is kind of, this is coming from off pod, I thought of this idea while you were fiddling with the knobs. So this is coming from off pod, but it's coming from in pod studio. Sure. People who want to not eat as much. Yes. Maybe even all of us. I think reducing the amount that you eat is one of the only ways in which longevity has been shown can be improved. Up to a point, Alistair? Up to a point. Yes, of course. It's not infinite longevity that can happen.

But also the reduction of what you eat is only up to a point. You reduce it beyond a certain point and you start to have negative effects on your longevity. Are these weight watchers points? They're weight watches points. So you bring it down up to a point, assuming if you're a long gym. Is there any, are these Weight Watchers points? Dead, White Watchers points. So you bring it down up to a point, assuming, if you're bringing it up to a point, you're reading less than a point. You're talking about increasing. All right, here's my thought. Yes.

The only time that I really don't eat a lot is when I feel busy. Okay. You know, because I'm busy. And I feel like I'm busy. And so I just, I didn't think about eating So it's just a pill that makes you feel busy A busy pill

Well, that's not the bit the pill doesn't have to be busy itself That's what I'm calling and I'll stay it's the busy it's the busy buzz it gives you that busy buzz Oh, that's good and you're no longer hungry. Oh, you see people say what are they say they say busy as a bee? Yeah? What do you notice about bees? thin I was gonna say lightweight, but Yeah, great bodies good curves. They got that tiny waist. They got that big backside Well, really they're sort of a pill shape in themselves. They can have a long ass. They got a long ass They got that long ass that people have been craving.

Yeah, people have a long tit and they love. Yeah, people have a long tit, they want to have a long ass. Great thing about a long ass is that sitting down would be much quicker, right? Oh yeah. Like you don't have as far to go. But you need one of those holes like you would have in a massage chair so that your sting could get through. You don't want to crush your sting. They've

clearly attached all of their really important organs to that sting. We're talking bees here. Yes. Not people's asses. Okay. So strong thorax. People often, I would say most people that I've ever met have a weak thorax in this sort of endoskeleton kind of way. Yeah, you want to emphasize that thorax, right? Like you, I think humans don't really have the thorax. Could you get a thorax implant? The thorax is the join between the abdomen and the chest. Which one's the thorax?

I thought that to look, to be honest, I'm not 100% sure on the thorax here. Yeah. Although it does sound like a book by Dr. Zeus. Dr. Zeus, is there a thing called the thorax? There's the thorax. Yeah, great. And also in Pokemon, there's the Snorlax. Wow. Dr. Zeus, is there a thing called the thorax? There's the lorax. Yeah, great.

And also in Pokemon, there's the snorlax. Wow. Yeah. Anyway, but I think I always thought the thorax was essentially kind of... Snorlax sounds like a drug that helps you sleep and also shit yourself. Really? Snorlax. Oh, the lack of the laxative, yeah.

Yeah. Okay, that's... So that you don't have to feel the embarrassment of shitting yourself while you're awake, because that's so embarrassing. But if you want to shit yourself, the best time to do it is in bed. Well, I think, you know, people say that the best way to die is peacefully in your sleep, right? And dying is the thing that a lot of people don't want to do. Another thing that a lot of people don't want to do is shit themselves, right?

So if only you could do all the things that you don't want to do. Another thing that a lot of people don't want to do is shit themselves. Yeah. So if only you could do all the things that you don't want to do, peacefully and you're sleep. Shit yourself peacefully and you sleep. Break up with somebody, peacefully and you sleep. Declare bankruptcy. Peacefully and you sleep. Get in trouble peacefully and you're sleep.

There you go. It's something, it's like it's a pill or a- Be arrested, can be a crime. Maybe, okay, it's an in-ear fixture that listens. It's got a mic that's on all the time. I know people got problems with that, but you're gonna need this for this to work. It's gonna be worthwhile.

And then on the inside, it's got a little wire that goes into your brain, right? And it listens for when somebody gets angry with you. Right. And then it zaps it into sleep mode when somebody starts yelling at you. Like that, and you fall asleep. So that while you're getting yelled at,

it's got, it's the, yeah, well, this is not the... I think this is fantastic. Isn't this also what happens to certain types of rodents? Like there's, isn't it like the door mouse or something like that? When it gets a shock, it just, instantly falls asleep, it goes into this dormant mode. There's those sheep ones that,

when you spook them, they go stiff and fall down Um, those ones you open up a numbrella near them You open up a numbrella and they they go stiff and they fall down Sure, yeah, yeah look okay, okay, so okay. We've got to go go go go go go go go back here Yeah, right? So this is the the sleep defense. Yeah right? And it could be good for all sorts of things. I think, I think, you know, even if, it's, it's, it's something bad could happen to you like, like either you're gonna do something bad

or something bad is gonna happen to you like somebody's gonna break up with you or something like that, right? Put you to sleep. And either A, they won't break up with you because you're asleep, right? And you can't break up with somebody while they're asleep. That's the rules. Do they say that though? Yeah, that's great.

Well, as long as they say it. They say it. Or they'll break up with you while you're asleep because it's peacefully in your sleep. You won't feel any pain. Yeah, I think that's nice. I like that aspect of it. I guess the possibility that people will stop the breakup and postpone until next time.

But I guess if they end up in that situation where every time they keep trying to break up with you, you fall asleep. I think at some point they'll just leave. And so then you won't get some of that shock horror of, you know, of reliving the moment where they break up with you in your head and having and seeing them drive away and things like that. I think you'll just remember the feeling of them broaching the subject.

And then you'll become a slug just and you woke up. Yeah, you woke up and they were gone and then you kind of piece it together. It makes your life a bit more mysterious as well. It's like, you know, it's almost like when you wake up in a bath the Levi's somebody's taking your kidneys. All right, sure you've lost your kidneys but you've gained a little mystery. Yeah, that's right. And that can really keep you busy. And busyness is a good thing because you lose weight. You lose weight while you're busy. Now, back to the good thing because you lose weight. You lose weight while you're busy. Now, back to the busy thing. I think a pill that makes you feel busy is just fantastic. And I think as a weight loss thing, that's good. But I wonder if it could have other applications.

I mean, firstly, with people having their jobs replaced by machines, right? Obviously, people have less things to do, and they will feel less busy. And that void in people's lives could be the sort of, could allow existential angst to come in, certainly, and on we. Yeah. You know what it's like when you got a void, and somebody comes along and fills it with on we. Yeah, absolutely. You're trying to avoid that that void avoid that void. Yeah, um, and You know busyness the pill will fill will fill that that void. I guess one of the side effects will probably be and like and I guess they could have discovered this

Some you know some are we inventing speed is this basically speed? I mean, I guess people who had, I mean, look, that is something that we, they could probably sell at sex shops as an alternative to our pill, you know, that they could, why spend $40 on this business pill when you could just spend, you know, however much speed costs.

On this speed? On this speed. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. Um, I'm convinced. So I think maybe they were trying to discover something else. And then first of all, one of the things that just, they found this pill that keeps your hands moving at all times like this. It's kind of like a sort of like an elongated jitter, you know, like that, because the problem with not being busy is idle hands.

Well, what if something keeps your hands constantly moving to cities? Yes, but synthetic Parkinson's. I mean, real Parkinson's is a, you know, obviously it's a curse. It's a life-long debilitating thing, but you know, if you can have a by-choice, it's a curse done by your own body. Like your body is both a wizard and a person with Parkinson's. Yeah, your body is both a wizard and a person who has offended that wizard and that you've cursed yourself to be forever in motion. I've absolutely offended my wizard. I guess that's another way. I'll just, anyway, forget it. We're going, I'm going to too many ideas. No, I'll, and keep me. But just the idea of referring, that it's just another life philosophy

where you talk about where disease actually comes from. Oh, you offended your wizard. You offended your wizard. Yeah, it's the Feng Shui Feng Shui, whatever is about pleasing a dragon that's trying to make its way through your house. Yeah. You know, personal health is all about doing the right thing

by your wizard. By your wizard, your body is not just a temple, but that temple is the home of a wizard, and he's got very particular wants and needs and is grumpy. This wizard in some way represents your higher self or your desires. It's if you will, a wizard of it.

I like that, Andy. Somebody should draw that. Yeah, and I should. Okay. Wizard of it in case you don't know is a terrible cartoon strip. Possibly the worst cartoon strip. Andy, do we judge art on this podcast? Yeah. Yeah, we just did. That's right. That's right. but I did just make you say that was a David is art I judged it to not be up All right, yeah, which means that we know I'll get judge it. I'm a steer Yeah, I've got a couple of ideas here. Okay, right spoilers for other things right so spoiler alert right people Are always worried about know about the end of a film. No one ever can complain about knowing what dessert is. That's true.

Alright. Or did another thing? Yeah. I guess we could get people to complain about what dessert is. By making them feel like they won't be able to enjoy dinner if they know what... Yes. Because I think knowing the spoilers to a film doesn't necessarily ruin it.

I personally prefer it. You see, yeah. And I am not that bothered by it. I mean, I understand that moment of being surprised by something can be exciting, but at the same time, not being surprised is my general state. You're starting to be. And I'm not gonna say that's bad because I'd be offending my wizard.

But is there anything in that? So you go along to somebody, so you say you're at a restaurant. Somebody's already got there dessert. They have a bite, they say, oh, this is delicious. And you're, you're bothered by that. Well, you're just on your first course. Yeah. I haven't eaten yet. Oh, don't tell me. That's not me anything. Yeah, I mean, I mean, I'm bored by this idea. So I guess that's not a good side. Sure, sure, sure.

by this idea, so I guess that's not a good side. Sure, sure, sure. I mean, look, we currently, wait, we currently do have two sort of pill-based things. I mean, look, a spoiler-based thing, you know, we've got space for it. It would be a variation. Can I try something else? Okay. This is another idea. There's a new approach that I'm having is where I'm writing down ideas as I have them rather than interrupting you and saying them. But you'll note

that I've also been interrupting you and saying them. So I don't know how well it's working. Anyway, we had a sketch on the 100 episode sketch podcast where it was about writing everything by fuckability. Yeah. Everything in the universe. In the universe. And, you know, I'm a bit uncomfortable about the sketch, whatever.

But, yeah, but, you know that expression, you say that somebody would fuck anything that moves. Yeah. Right, I just think that that's an odd on the basis of, surely, like that implies they would fuck anything that moves, but they won't fuck things that are stationary, right? But surely there are some things that are stationary that are more, you are more likely to fuck than things that are moving.

Sure, like so that's seaweed in the ocean. Is it, what you're saying, that's a moving thing or a stationary thing? That's a thing that's moving. Whereas just a hole in a couch is not going anywhere. But it's surely vastly more likely. Just in terms of proximity. Proximity and desirability. Desirability softness. Yeah.

Well, you know, I mean, obviously seaweed can be very soft. Seaweed can be soft. I wasn't trying to suggest seaweed isn't soft. And seaweed, you know, we're not just talking about men having sex with things as well. So maybe seaweed could just have that kind of, I mean, I'm, I know, I am apologize to anybody who might be listening. No, Alice did, you all made a say it. It was just kind of my lightly tickled and brush against scenario, maybe in a way that is probably more desirable than, than, than... A lot of other stuff. A lot of other stuff. A lot of other stuff. So, you know, I guess look, what I was saying, Andy,

is that at that point, your analysis of that idea was very heteronormative. And I don't throw that accusation around lightly. All right. So, of course, tyrannosaurus rex, you try and say stationary because they can't see you if you move You'll fuck anything that moves. Yeah, look this is very uncomfortable territory perhaps Look, I'm not uncomfortable. No, all right, but but where's what's the so now what we're exploring is the idea of them saying,

somebody will fuck anything that moves. I think my problem initially with some of your logic was that I don't necessarily think that it means that he won't fuck something that doesn't move. Right, sure. But the fact that you're specifying he will fuck anything that moves. That definitely means it's more like more tempting to him

the fact that it moves. It means that there are things that don't move that he won't fuck. I guess not even then. He could also fuck everything that doesn't move. I think the fact that something moves is the turn on for him. Right.

For this person. Yes. Yes. Yes. Like, and I think that's what the accusation is, I guess person. Yes, yes. And I think that's what the accusation is. I guess we're saying that he's a guy who won't. He won't fuck anything that doesn't move. No, I don't think that's what I'm saying.

I think that they're just saying that, like, look, if you really want to get them going, move. Wow. Yeah, that's my turn on. The wind. Stock market numbers. In a volatile economic climate. A nail being pulled out of some old driftwood. Yes. And an elderly couple moving

to a smaller apartment. Oh, that's nice. I'm glad it wasn't just like a single person. No, no, no, no. Anyway, I don't think that's a sketch, Hell. No. Oh, well, who are the characters? I guess there's the guy who says he'll, this person will fuck anything that moves. Right. Okay, so is that character? And then there's, I guess, anything that moves. Well, it was the other character. Yeah, well, there's the person who will fuck anything that moves. Right, okay, so is that character? And then there's, I guess, anything that moves. Well, it was the other character.

Yeah, well, so then there's the person who will fuck anything that moves, or supposedly will. Yes. You know, at the moment, this is just an allegation. Right. And then there is, then there's anything that moves. But then there's all the things that aren't moving, which... Right, but I mean, a lot of them were moving, maybe they've stopped moving and maybe they're

starting to wonder why he's lost interest. What, you know, is it me? Yeah, I guess the... I mean, of course the thing is, Alistair, that we are in an expanding universe where everything is moving. Well, I was going to bring that up. There are no fixed frames of reference. Yeah, well, that we know of. everything is moving. Well, I was going to bring that up. There are no fixed frames of reference. There are no, yeah.

Well, that we know of. That we, oh, we could use this guy to identify a fixed frame of reference. That would be fantastic. If we travel around the universe with this guy, seeing what he fucks and what he doesn't what he fucks and what he doesn't fuck, we might be able to identify a Newtonian reference frame for the entire universe. That would be really nice, actually. And then we could reestablish the primacy

of Newtonian mechanics over relativism. I mean, I think that would come that on, Stein. Yeah, I think like a universal kind of anchor point would be so nice to find out that we're actually like hanging on a wall or something like that to find well I believe it was Archimedes who said give me a lever and a firm place to stand and I can move the world But is this such a thing as a firm place to stand well? Well, yeah, this bloke has got a firm thing to hand to help you find the firm place to stand

But I guess I guess Archimedes was referring to somewhere off of earth Yes, because I mean there's plenty of places where he could have a lever and he can have a firm place to stand. But I guess our comedies was referring to somewhere off of Earth. Yes. Because I mean there's plenty of places where he could have a lever and he can have a firm place to stand and he's technically not moving here that much, right? Yes. Yes, that's what he was saying, Elastir. Well, he should have said, not on Earth. Not on Earth.

And a really big lever. I think what we're learning here is that Archimedes was an idiot. Oh, I know. It was just one of these witticism guys. Yeah. You know, it's got a bit more cred than he deserved, I think. I call him Arki. Arki, Mady, okay.

Um, okay. So I'm not, I'm not truly happy with a bit until I've come up with a disappointing part at the end so that I can sigh and hate myself. You know, like everything will, it's it's it's it is like the you know the the heat death of the universe is the pun at the end of a sketch idea. It's just that you know not with a bang but with a with a whimper. I mean if the universe ended not with a bang but with a disappointing pun that would be not with a bang but with a disappointing pun. That would be, that would be in many ways more tragic than the victory of entropy over the forces of light and hope.

Yeah, so anyway there's something to think about. Alistair. Stop writing. Stop writing, I hate you. No, no, no, but I actually was writing and I wasn't just trying to break your heart. I know. So I think we're doing good.

The thing about Harry's razor's Alistair. Yeah, what about him? Is that they, well, okay, so I got this pack with the razor in it and the handle. Firstly, beautiful handle to hold. Oh, it's that orange, it's very squishy, but also firm. I liked the look of it, but I was worried that maybe it was plasticky and didn't have weight. Beautiful weight, beautiful, like good heft in your hand.

Right, and it's got this thing that I'm sure other razors have it, but I'd never seen it before. You've got the five blades on the base, but then it's got a little trimming razor on the top that you can use for doing the bottoms of your sideburns. Oh yeah. I'd never had that before, but that worked out really well.

Also, for getting up under the nose, or like in that region. That is the hardest part to get to. You get those little tufties under there. I'm so worried about that. Then you get just sort of like the roots of a Hitler. Well, I mean, what they are is like, we have antibiotic resistance. You'll use antibiotics on a population of germs.

Right, and you'll kill the vast majority, 99.99%, but those few that left over are the ones that have survived and they have the strength to form a new generation that when you next use your antibiotics are less likely to die and so on and so on. And same thing with those hairs. Same thing to those hairs that keep surviving, they become battle hardened,

and they could become entirely resistant to shaving altogether. So you've got to make sure that you just end up accidentally have sort of like a Hitler come over, over your Plectrum or whatever this is. You'll have there, you know, five or 10 strands that are harder than any known substance in the universe. Yeah, they could hold up that big weight that

was that that happened in that old Superman movie that was holding that Superman, another hair, like a Superman hair. Exactly, Alison. That's what I was thinking. So if you go to two in the thing, if you go to harrys.com, Ford Salash think tank, right? You will get over $13 worth of value for just the cost of shipping for your first purchase you kid right I'll tell you what that includes I'll stay that includes a weighted ergonomic razor handle I told you about this beautiful. It's got like a neo rubber kind of thing. It's these new rubbers It's a new rubber. I think I'm not sure it might be a synthetic rubber of some kind But it's it could have a bit of silicone in there. I wouldn't be surprised. Maybe some Germanium.

Very, yes. I imagine so. It's five precision engineered blades with a lubricating strip and a trimmer blade. That's the one I was telling you about. And a rich lathering shave gel. All right. So I have a thing where I, the reason I don't shave very often, very often when I shave, I wind up with pimples in the middle of my chin.

Right? Yeah. Like, just for like a day, I'll have some little pimples there and I don't know what that's about. I find it gross. I've probably got a disease that I caught from a toilet seat. But I don't want people to think I put my chin on the toilet seat. Probably what it is.

What it's too late. Is that I put my balls grazed against the toilet seat and then I put my balls on my chin? I'm very flexible. It's a very relatable situation. Yes, but after this shave with this gel, this rich, lathering shave gel didn't have that problem. No.

A beautiful, beautiful smith, no little pimples. I often find it's just having hair on my face that causes the pimples. Really? No. I don't have that. Or if I do, I don't look under the pimples. Until you shave. And then you see them there. And there's a travel blade cover. Which I haven't used yet because, as you know, I never go anywhere. And why would you, Andy?

Why would I when I have such a great shaver at home? Yeah. Surely the only reason people go anywhere in the first place is on a quest for, I guess, precision engineered blades. Yeah, and now that they can be delivered straight to your home. Straight to your home. I didn't even explain this. They deliver them to you, right?

So that's the whole thing. It gets mailed out to your house. You sign up. You pay a fraction of what you'd pay for the leading five blade razor in a shop. I mean, just to tell you how much we care about these blades, we only need to talk about them for about 30 seconds. And this is we're going on the seventh minute. I'm happy for this to be the majority of the podcast.

I mean, there are five blades. They're giving you five blades. I feel like I should talk about each blade individually. Well, they all have a different personality, don't they? They do. Yes, they each have a story. It's like you, you know, it's like you're great to group like the magnificent seven. Yeah, absolutely. And whatever that thing is, the magnificent seven, that's what it's in.

And the seven samurai, which is more accurate. Yes, that's what it's in. You get them all together. You get five blades. Five blades. In fact, if they were seven blades, we'd really be on to something. Yeah, but I mean, they've got to have somewhere to progress to. Harry's on for slash think tank.

And yeah, so it yourself out, you know? Yeah. Have they ever done like a magnificent seven type thing, but with people in offices or something that isn't like, you know, people who kill. It's a very popular trope, but I have, and you know, it's a thing that you see in Oceans 13, Oceans 11, even. Yeah.

You know, the getting the gang together is a really common thing. Common trope. And I imagine it's been done in like, you know, musical things where you've got to get a band together and that sort of thing. But office or pushing it into something more mundane. Yeah. I think also, I think it's a great trope to play on for the purposes of a sketch. You could almost do something that was a bit like, what's it, too many cooks, you know,

that adult swim, too many cooks thing, where it's just constant introductions of more and more and more. I'm not going to lie, I still haven't seen it. And I talk about constantly seeing it. I would have read the synopsis if there was one. I have also. I've seen it and read the synopsis, Alistair. Wow. Yeah, I'm across this.

But that's an endless introduction to a sitcom, right? Where they keep introducing more and more characters. And is it too much of that thing to have something that's like Ocean's 11? I mean, the thing is Ocean's 11 is already way too many people, right? It's so many people. It's so many people. Those fucking characters.

And then they did the oceans, it's irritating. They just keep, you know what, the worst thing was they and then they introduced a character who, they said, oh, she looks just like Julia Roberts and she's played by Julia Roberts. That, anyway, that ruined everything for me. I couldn't go back. Yeah, absolutely. It did.

But I think you could do a sketch where you, you, they keep getting the team together. Right. And it is just, it just, it, that never ends. Right. The problem is that Ocean's 11 is already done getting so many people together that it's already, it's already ridiculous.

So you'd have to go well past 11 to get to the point of humor. But you could skip a few, right? And I like the idea that as you're getting the gang together, the gang's all with you, right? So you're getting, you've got up to like 100, 115 people. So they're all with you while you go somewhere to convince the hundred and six-thinths person that you need your team to bring whatever their special skill is to the crew. What about like it's the deserts or then all the desserts eight hundred and fifty-three. All right, so they're getting a gang together to to make like to cater for this big dessert conference. Sure, right?

And so then it's just this dessert pastry chef maybe who's wondering on his, and he's been given his brief and then we'll find a way of summarizing the whole brief. François, the big dessert conference is coming up and all the leading dessert review artists, not review artists, you know, reviewers. Keep going, Al. Reviewers, we're going to be here. We need to put on the best dessert and he goes, I know just the team to put together for this. Right. And then he goes and he goes, I know just the team put together for this. Right. And then he goes and he goes and gets this guy who's great with form don't.

And then he gets the guy who's the little balls that you put on top of a week. What are they called? Pasteles or something? Nick Mason knew the word of it. Yeah. When we had him on the podcast, a little silver balls. That's right. And then the guy who's a great at caramelizing sugar.

Yes. And like, it's just all these specialties, and you keep going to different countries. Each episode is just collecting another one of these people and freeing them up so that they can come and cook for this conference and do one specific thing. And then eventually he's got this team of thousands. He's like Hadrian crossing the Alps, right?

He's got elephants and everything like that. And then he needs a whole infrastructure just to keep this army fed. And I guess as they're traversing the continent, they're also I guess raiding farming villages and stuff for food just to keep farmer market villages. Farmer market villages and they're probably burning a lot of thatch cottages to the ground, salting the earth and stuff so things will never grow. And they're just making wonders and it's just this tiny little thing. I mean, they'll make a few of them, but just the idea of seeing all these people kind of

look down upon this tiny plate with this thing, almost like that. Now, Steve, you've turned this into too many cooks. Have I? Well, there are cooks and this into too many cooks. Have I? Well, there are cooks, and there are too many of them. You're correct. Yes, but fortunately, you wouldn't know this, but they're not actually about cooks.

See, that's what I like about this. That one's maybe, I think I do know that it's about a family called the cooks, maybe. Yes, that's right. Maybe I do know more about too many cooks. I think we could call this actually too many action cooks? Yeah, I think that would be good. And, but we actually make it as well.

We actually make it. We actually make it. Not like them. Well, they cowards. I mean, they, you know, they just made the intro song, right? But then they didn't go into the show. But what's too many cooks once you get to the show? And what's too many cooks once you get to the show? And what's too many cooks when you get to the show?

When that's not that, too many cooks, but our too many cooks. A different one. Yeah, about actual cooks. This is really shifts. Yeah. Alistair? So wait, if they're cooks,

then that's suggesting that they're not actually classically trained. Or professionally trained. But my question is, why do we have so many cooks just to make broth? And how can you really spoil a broth? I mean, what is it? You're just boiling what just vegetables

and chicken bones or something like that? I mean, come on. What if you let it sit for a long time because you're all arguing over what to do next with the broth and you let it get cold for about a week and it's a form mold. Some of the shifts unionize and start demanding better conditions. And you know a lot of chefs have substance abuse problems. I do know that.

Or they're recovering, they've recovered from substance abuse problems and they just tell you a lot about a lot of stories about the times when they did have a substance abuse problem Which in many ways is worse than having a substance abuse problem or Maybe just one of them thought it would be nice to put sardines and the broth and then that Well, then it doesn't sound like it's a problem with too many Cooks it's just this one particular cool. I think that's the one with having a lot of cooks. Right. Statistically speaking, you're wind up with one idiot. Yeah, one fucking idiot. Right. And so that's the, when you don't have a two, and like when you have barely enough cooks,

you're limiting the amount of people who are of real low quality. Well, I think then what it is, is it's poor hook, it's poor cook hiring practices. Well, that's right. It's, yeah, it's poor hook, it's poor cook hiring practices. Well that's right, it's sort of, it's more of a HR problem. It's an HR insufficient HR personnel, spoil the broth. Yeah, or, you know, and then also kind of, there's, you know, but once you do have, even if you have a bunch of great cooks together. And a fantastic HR department. Yeah, and a fantastic HR department.

You still do need to kind of create a bit of a team vibe and get people working together and get a notion. It's the kind of, it's the company culture. It's the good induction and maybe a good plan for where you're heading. Because really a restaurant is like a good broth, right? You need all the right ingredients. You don't want to spoil that broth. That's right. Well, I mean, exactly. I mean, technically, if there was just, say, a good recipe for the broth, and you weren't just improvising it along the way, that would definitely also help.

So I think maybe lack of planning, poor HR, you know, and- But see, for me, these problems start at the top, right? And when we're blaming the cooks, right? But really, you've got to ask yourself, you follow the money, and who is it at the top who's created the workplace environment, and I'll tell you what it is, you've got some at the top who's insecure and who can't take feedback, right?

And who, maybe they started the business themselves and they're used to micro-managing and being in charge of everything. And really, they need to take a step back and let the cooks do what they do best. Well, that's often what happens. And then there's also the fact that maybe, one of the main ways you could spoil the broth

is say, forgetting to just order the salt. You know, you need, you need, look, you need a, if you want a broth, you're going to need some salt. Yes. And so it's probably also just a sourcing thing. It's a sourcing thing. And, and, and again, but then also maybe this whole system has been put in place. It's probably the fault of capitalism. That's the real system.

Yeah. probably the fault of capitalism. That's the real system. That what it is, right, is that capitalism incentivizes you to cut costs, right? And reduce staffing hours and treat people worse, right? In the name of profit. Well, that's right, that's why there's not all these people kind of having a week away, getting to meet and talk about what they want to do with the bra, getting to the internet. about what they want to do with the broth.

Right. And maybe travels of France and do the personal and professional development follow their passions like the Google, Google X projects where they let somebody just have time to work on something that they care about. And maybe they're not even going to make a broth. Maybe they're doing something that's related to broth or not even related to broth. Eventually, the developments that they inspire could become something that contributes to the broth or does something entirely different, changes the way we even

think about food, maybe we don't even need broth anymore. Well, the thing is, is that they even get an opportunity to study what a broth is. Yes. You know, a lot of the time you just told make a broth, here's broth, but philosophically speaking. Yeah. What is a broth? Why broth? Yeah. You know, who's not a broth, here's here's broth, but philosophically speaking. Yeah. What is a broth? Why broth? Why broth?

Yeah. You know, who's not a broth? Why are we asking these questions? And I tell you what it is, right? It's the children in schools aren't taught to be curious. That's right. We're taking the imagination for what? For what?

For a child. And we're ringing out what a broth could be out of them. It's the teachers, right? And the teachers don't have enough time to spend with these kids to let them be themselves, right? It's insufficient teachers. Yep. Spoil the broth.

Yeah. But also I blame the parents. Well, I mean, they're not, they can't get off the hook. Because everyone puts the pressure on the teachers.-hmm, but really this starts in the home But also the parents are just enacting what happened the generation before right? They're repeating the mistakes of their parents generation. That's right And they're and they're too proud To sort of to say well, you know exactly

My parents made a mistake and therefore I've maybe turned out not perfect Mm-hmm, you know and and so I would, I guess you could. I think the problem is in us. It's within us, but then are we responsible for that? And is it maybe the fault of the natural processes of evolution? Well, we like to think that we have free will, right? But the fact is we're just a series of chemical reactions, taking place according to established chemical and physical parameters.

There is no mind. There is just... Exactly. There's just electrical impulses floating in a hormonal soup or broth if you will. And you've got to think, it's just the laws of the universe, ultimately, that define how we behave. And I don't think we get to choose. Right? And I think probably it's in that way inevitable that the broth

was always going to be spoiled. Yeah. I would have to agree with that. And the broth is probably fine. I think that's it. We have too high a standard for broth. And everyone's a critic these days. Yeah. Right? Yeah. Everybody thinks that we care what they think standards for broth. And everyone's a critic these days. Yeah, who's judging broth? Yelp. Everybody thinks that we care what they think about the broth. If you don't like the broth, I'll tell you what, shut the fuck up. Yeah.

Right? And get something else in your life. Yeah. Maybe a hobby. Maybe a hobby. Maybe cooking. Who gives a shit? It's just broth. Just broth. But if you do think that it's bad, it was the universe that did it.

Yes. Yeah. It's just broth, but if you do think that it's bad, it was the universe that did it. Yes, indeed, we are in a universe and not in a simulation. We don't know. And if we are in a simulation, then the people who designed the simulation, they spoiled the broth. Yeah, and probably because they had too many people working on the simulation. Yeah. They just had a few less people and a bit more time to work, and maybe they would have made a better

Simulation. Yeah, so then it's the origins of their universe that spoiled the broth and our universe. Yeah, yeah So it's good to get to the bottom of that. Yeah, I think so and so and and also just to let the the cooks off the They've been copying a lot of heat. I mean that has been I mean it's that has been a just a burden They've been carrying on their back possibly like a giant bowl of broth yes so that i have a spot all the broth atlas who uh... who supported the the broth of the universe on his mighty shoulders

and if you think it's bad to carry the weight of the world at least the world's not boiling hot uh... that's right except you know it's bad to carry the way to the world, at least the world's not boiling hot. That's right. Except for the inside. It could be a lot worse on the inside though it is. Right. But I guess he doesn't feel that he's got that nice crust. The crust.

Right, but the bowl, the bowl's definitely transfer heat more than crust. They do. Maybe if it was a bread bowl. Like a, you know, like when you hollow out a loaf, and you put the soup in there? And that, you think, is more likely to protect the cooks from... Well, liquid? Yeah, we've established. Oh, yeah, I see now why,

because it's about the word crust. Yes, I suppose. I suppose, but what if it was like, roughly, sort of 26 kilometers of earth? Yeah, that would work too. That would also. Imagine if we got to it because we don't really know what's in the center of the earth. Imagine if we got down there Nougat. Nougat.

Oh, that'd be so good. I mean it had ruined the Nougat industry. It would. And that's what I'm worried about. Imagine if we found that the most abundant substance in the earth was nougat. See, the problem for me with that is that nougat is one of the worst foodstuffs. It's one of the worst sweets. I mean, look, I think nougat on its own, right? And I don't want to offend anybody in Europe who's currently making nougat, who listens

to podcasts while they make new God or whatever. They're slicing up their pistachios and they're all uncooked almonds or whatever. And they're just making this sort of dense, chewy, sticky, mass. Now and I do want to insult the whole, but I do want to insult the whole Nuga industry by saying the best Nuga that I've ever eaten in my life is in a Mars bar. Really? Yeah. Is that Nuga or the Mars bar? There's some Nuga in the Mars bar. Yeah, maybe I love Nuga. Well, I mean, it's not all Nuga. Maybe I love Caramel. I mean, you could love outer chocolate coating, or maybe you would, you love as, you know,

yeah, no you said caramel. You might like the rap, you might like one in six, one in six Mars bars, when a prize instant giveaways. So, you know, what'd be great was if you didn't like Mars bars, right? Then every time you bought a Mars bar, you'd have a five and six chance of not winning another Mars bar.

You increase your odds of getting what you want, which is not another Mars bar. If you prefer, if you consider not winning to be a prize. Then in that way, you win so much of the time. The lottery, the odds are hugely in your favor. Just astronomical. Absolutely. Yeah. If you value sort of learning a lesson.

That's right. The greatest gift of all really. Yeah. The greatest lottery prize is knowledge. Is knowledge, absolutely, because that, I mean, obviously money you can't take with you. And obviously knowledge, you also can't take with you. Yeah, they never say that though, didn't they?

No. But that knowledge can keep you pretty smug up and pretty much up until the point of death. I assume. Yeah. Although, really, like, when you die, there may, there's a chance that there's a moment as your mental functions are switching off when you realize that there is no afterlife. In which case, the knowledge you can take it with you even less than money, because money doesn't stop existing when you die. You have your money right up into the point at which you die. But your knowledge, you probably lose just before.

your knowledge you probably lose just before. Yeah, but but here's here's what I think though is that you can use your knowledge up into a much later point before you're dead. Yes. You know, then you can your money. So. Were you sure? Oh, I guess if you lose power of attorney. Yeah, I guess you lose power attorney, but also maybe like your physical functions,

your ability to focus. He's like that. So you'll you would have to maybe activate like one click purchases on Amazon or something like that in order to... If that's all you can do, imagine if you're in a locked-in syndrome, all you can do is blink, right?

That's one click purchase. That's a one click purchase, right? You can still shop, and that is a fantastic achievement. Yeah, but I mean, you're, I guess you can't really choose what you can't choose. You shop for, but you can still shop. I guess if you can blink then potentially communicate with people and maybe I don't know whether they can, you can hear them or whether they have to like sort of communicate you with little shocks or something like that. You know, it depends on whether you're a deaf person with locked in syndrome.

But let's say you are so that this idea can work. Yes. Let's say you are. Let's say you are. Then people would have to learn to develop a communication system with you. Like you blink once for yes and you blink twice for no. Or maybe they could shock you once for new sneakers and you blink twice for no or and then maybe they could like shock you once for new sneakers and shock you twice for sort of like a trampoline. If you could get both things that presumably are really just a slap in the pipe face for someone

with locked-in syndrome. I know but I think if you were wearing you know a new pair of kicks as you're going out there, looking crispy as fuck like that. Oh yeah, crispy. Is that the way the people use? I think I heard somebody use it. But I don't think it belongs to my culture. It's more a thing for the new guy or industry.

The new guy. I think that idea, that they discover that the center of the earth, like, you know, that there's still some, I'm not sure if they've abandoned it, but there has, I think it was a Russian drill that's gone about 23 or 24 kilometers into the ground. Whoa! It is the deepest, I think, that we've ever gone. Yeah, all right. So I think we get down there, we find that it's Nougat. Find that it's Nougat, right?

Obviously, the Nougat industry is going to be over. It's on a TV and then it kind of pans out and it's from the point, then you see this from the point of view of a small business Nougat maker who's just finding out this information and realizing that this is going to Pay ruin their livelihood. That's it guys. We had a good run But I think also I mean the other way it could go of course is that Maybe we've known this for a long time, but as soon as anybody gets close to Confirming it. Hmm big nougat comes in, shuts them down, like they do with electric cars

or vacuum energy or something like that. That's the oil companies. I think that would be fun. But then what do they do? I guess that's something that we reveal that that has been happening for a long time. But then what would they do once it's just hit the mass media? Like how do they then?

Well, they might try and do some kind of group memory or raised thing or something like that, putting something into the water. Yeah, or sort of a, I mean, look, maybe it's, you think they put nouga into the water? Maybe nouga. Do you think that'll, if people sort people start to opening their taps and so the nouga comes out, do you think that would make them believe less that there's the center of the earth is made of nouga? Or more? Do you think maybe they would release some sort of virus that just wipes out all of humanity and we start again?

Mm. Right? Yes. Because... Oh, the old god method. Yeah, the old God method we start off with a few, just a few straggling survivors and they are able to rebuild because eventually they'll discover how to make nougat and the nougat industry will continue but it will still be another many thousands of years before they're able to discover that you can get free nougat from drilling down into the earth. And the important thing is that nougat is continues to be made by artisans. Yeah, I mean,

what if we found out that this is not the first time that this has happened? And that every time. And that actually every time you have people discover it, what happens is that we all actually all come from a long line of nougat makers because every time that people discover it. What happens is that we all actually all come from a long line of nougat makers, because every time that people discover that this has happened, then they just send a big portion of the nougat industry into a bunker somewhere where they'll be safe from the disease.

They wipe out the rest of the earth. And then they start again, maybe they stay in there for 50 years or whatever, and And then they start, they start again, maybe they stay in there for 50 years or whatever, and then they come out and they start again, and they build from the new guy up like that. And then they're just, they're, then it's a new guy industry, but then they have to build other industries,

obviously to support the new guy industry. Yes. And then they for people, after a few enough generations, people forget that it was connected to the new guy industry at all I guess there'd still be a line that passes the secret down Yeah, there'd be a secret house of you know, or like an aluminum out of you Well, I guess it's it would be the people who continue to work within the new guy industry right?

They all know yeah, not you know, obviously you don't know completely abandoned the new guy industry But then also what if we're finding out that there may be the new guy industry isn't even abandon the new guy industry. But then also, what if we're finding out that maybe the new guy industry isn't even making the new guy at all, they're just mining it? With that... Oh, wow. Yeah. Because I mean, why if they were aware that the center of the earth was made of new guy, why would they continue to make it from such?

I guess it's just that it's so expensive to get out from the... Yeah, I mean, why do the oil companies continue to extract oil when they know that we can get all the energy? We need from the sun, how else do you? I suppose there's probably something to do with the ease of which you can get that out of the earth and then the fact that a lot of their industry is tied up and making money that way. Yeah, they probably don't have that many solar panels. You're right. A lot of that in there. Yeah. Is this... if we've written not a lot of that in there. Yeah.

Is this, if we've written this down, is this an idea? Yeah. Great. Hey, I think we might have done it, Alistair. Yeah, no, we have. We've done it. We've done it. So, I'm going to take us through all the sketch ideas.

We've got, we're calling it Snorlax, but this is the sleep defense. And so, it's a, I guess it's a drug or it's a mixture of sort of, it's a series of products. Some of them are drugs like the Snorlax, which allows you to fall asleep so that you can shit yourself so that you don't have to live through the shitting of yourself. And basically a whole bunch of products that allow you to go to sleep when something bad happens to you, so you don't have to live through a full memory of it. Much in the way that the best way to die is in your sleep.

And therefore the best way to do all bad things is peacefully in your sleep. Yes. And that's a good series of products. I think it's probably going to be bigger than Apple eventually. Mostly it's just sort of a lot of things that go in your ear and then zap you to sleep as soon as sort of something like the sound of violence and different things going to happen. Maybe you're about to watch a bad movie or something like that. Yeah, maybe even if you're having a nightmare, it puts you sort of into a deeper level of

sleep so that you don't have to sleep in the nightmare. Oh, wow. Yeah, that's good. Then we've got a pill that makes it feel busy. Yes. And that's that's both good for losing weight because that's when you don't eat. You know, but also it's good for when you know, when the robot revolution comes, but also just for when you're unemployed. Yeah. And. You can sit, you could be sitting totally motionless, right? Staring at a blank wall and just feel busy. Imagine that.

Oh, I think that's great, because that's often where you get a lot of life satisfaction from because you feel like you're doing stuff. Do you think though that like there would be, because whenever you have a drug like this, people start to use it recreationally and they'll refine it and they'll process it. And then you, I guess, if you take too intense a hit of this busy pill, maybe you feel like God or something like that, like you feel omnipotent, you feel like you're doing all things, everything at once. Now, or you feel totally overwhelmed.

I think overwhelmed would be, I think that's actually, but it's an overwhelmed. I think that that's actually the feeling you get when you take too much of any drug. Is you start feeling quite overwhelmed or asleep or dead? But in my experience, overwhelmed is the feeling that I get from taking any kind of drug. But I do like that. I mean, that's the extreme that we would have to explore. Yes. I feel like I'm doing everything at the moment. And I guess that would kind of make you feel like you're responsible for the running of

the world. Well, you must be. I mean, if you're doing everything. Yeah, but if you just feel like you are, I mean, technically you are just sitting there. Do you think God ever feels overwhelmed? He's got a lot on. Yeah. I guess what do you reckon he uses Google Calendar?

I assume that he's just kind of got a good brain built for that kind of thing. Yeah, he's got a tidy mind. Look, then we've got the guy who will fuck anything that moves. And we use it to find a fixed point in the universe. He's used to find a static point in the universe so that we can bring back the primacy of Newtonian physics.

I love it. Yeah, and then there's also the philosophy of where some diseases and stuff comes from and that's about how you've offended your wizard. Yes. Then we also have, due to many cooks spoil the broth? Well, I'm sorry, but no, it's actually eminion in the end. It's either the universe or the alien's creation of the universe. But you really have to kind of listen through, you know, if you're just listening to the sketch list at the end, you're really not going to just get what was in that journey there.

You've really got to sit through it. You've got to sit through it. You've got to endure it. Yeah. Then we got the center of the earth is made of Nuga, and that that revelation has come from the point of view of the Nuga maker. We find out how that affects them, and then also about Big Nuga. I think that's going to be big. There's a few sci-fi kind of ideas here.

Yeah, very sci-fi. Yeah. And then there's the concept of not being able to take money with you, but then also you can't take memories with you, but probably the memories and knowledge you can take closer to death than you can take money unless you set up a one-click system on Amazon. That's all pretty weird that one. Is that the last one that we came up with? Yeah. Yeah, we'll fantastic. Hey, I'm happy with that. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, getting in contact to say that they listened to the entirety of the 100 sketch episode and we are so grateful and grateful.

Grateful. We feel truly blessed. And it is true, madness that anyone has listened to it. We're blessed. Blessed. Blessed. I did not believe in being blessed. I didn't.

I didn't. It's still this happened. Believe in blessings until you guys listened to an 11 hour podcast. Yeah, and now I know what it feels like to be a baby in the hands of the Pope. Yeah and you can find us on Twitter. Where a two in tank. Yeah and I'm at Alistair TV. I'm at Stupid Old Andy and if you can write and review the podcast on iTunes it helps us a lot and makes us feel very good but it also helps other people to see the podcast. Yeah, and it's been really nice seeing new people follow us and rating it and everything

I've had. And getting in touch. Getting in touch on Twitter? Yes, and getting in touch. Facebook or whatever. You know, getting in touch, we love it. We do. We actually do.

We really enjoy it. We both control the thing. And the Twitter. Yes, and we both have a good response rate. We're pretty good at the moment. Your contact is important to us. Yeah. And we will endeavor to get back to you

as soon as possible. And there's the Patreon as well, which is happening. And thank you to everybody who's put onto that. And you guys can do that at patreon.com slash. If it's within your means, chuck us a couple of bucks on the Patreon. Thank you. It was not within your means. That a couple of bucks on the Patreon. Thank you It was not within your means that's totally fine and we respect that and we definitely understand

Thank you all the same. Oh, but if you could tell a friend about the podcast Yeah, I'll do it or just like download it onto all your parents phones Everybody's right because we much as we love listeners more than that. We love listening figures Yeah, no, but we also do love listeners, we force them to listen to it. And if you run like a prison or something like that, and you could play the loud speaker, I think that would be cool to have a good, you know, like, there's a big prison population in the world, and I think that would be kind of, I think those people often don't get as many podcasts as I think they could be getting, you know, might change the direction of their lives.

And I think five sketch ideas is probably what they need. Yeah. I mean, and they have the time to kind of go out and create sketch ideas. So if you're in a prison and you're kind of thinking about running, maybe like a sketch show, um, anyway, feel free to use them. Some of the ideas. Also, Andy, I did, do you think ants would like? Well, Nougat, obviously, I think if they found out that the center of the earth was entirely Nougat from an ants' point of view, that would be big.

That would be probably the biggest news in the ant world ever, I would say. Yeah. Yeah. And it might lead us to believe that really this planet is meant for the ants. I mean, there's no evidence to the contrary, even as now. The fact that we're making new guys, which is something that they love, makes it seem

like we're working for them. We're working for them. Yeah. Well, Sid, do you have any other opinions? I think ants would quite like the thing about you can't take your money with you. You're right. Yeah. They're very philosophical.

Because they can't take money with them anywhere. Yes, even though they're very strong. They're very strong, but they just they can't even carry it. They can't carry coin. And what would they? I think they would be able to relate to that. So thanks a lot everybody. We've gone on for a long time. And you know, that's what we're going to do because we love you.
