Thanks, baby. Yeah, looking good. This is the Wild Times. It is our podcast where we talk about all kinds of fun things. Do I do intros anymore? I don't even remember.

Kind of. Well, it's a little fuzzy. When I remember. Yeah. I mean, you're Forest Gallant. True. You're Patrick DeLuke. The bro.

Why don't you do it? Go. Welcome to Wild Times podcast where we talk about animals, wildlife, adventure and other things, right, Pat? Yes, thank you for that.

I'm your co-host Peter. This is co-host Patrick and main host, Forrest, Gallant. Not really. We're all pretty equal partners. Yeah, we're equal. But what are our titles? Don't forget that part. Oh, yeah, the broologist over here because he's everything bro and ologist.

And then we got Pat, who's the broducer, because he's an expert producer. And then me, I'm the brofessor, but Kyle's pretty much taken over all my technical responsibilities. Yeah, you don't do anything anymore. You just get angry and drink light strike. Yeah, I mean, I'm the color guy. If you want to call it. Yeah, the color commentator. I'm a color commentator.

So right before we started, you got a text or WhatsApp and he said, oh, wow, this is the first time I've heard from my mom in a while. And I said, what's going on? You live right next door to her. I do. But she, yeah. And he said she's in Angola? She's in Angola.

Yeah. Give me a rundown. What's going on? I've never been to Angola. So neither of I. Kyle's looking up where it is as fast as possible. I have no idea where Angolia is. Yes.

Wait, don't, don't show them. Don't show them. Don't show them. What continent do you think it's? in? Morocco. No, I'm just kidding. I don't know how to respond to that.

Angolia, I'm going to say, is in... Damn, I don't know. Is Asia a continent? It is. Asia is a continent. I'm going to go Asia. Wow, I have a lot to say about that. Pat, I assume you know where Angola is.

It's in Africa. Correct. I actually don't know what part of Africa, though. It's in sort of, not even south, really, more central at this point. Okay. So, borders. It's bordered by... DR Congo, Zambia and Namibia.

Yeah. All right. What's she doing there? But, you know, Angola is a very, I'm sending pictures to Kyle, not just texting, by the way, so we can talk about the things my mom's seeing. She, she, my mom made this, my mom went to Socotra with my wife and son when he turned two. He spent his second birthday in Socotra. And if you don't know Secochra, it's an incredibly difficult island to get to in the middle of the Middle East. There's only one flight in and one flight out per week.

My mom's always done this. this is how I became who I am, really. And it's where the dragon trees are from and all of that. And when she went on this trip, she goes with these like little groups basically, right? She met this other crazy old lady like her. And they formed a crazy old lady coalition to go somewhere really extreme and exotic every year that the rest of the world doesn't get to see. So this year, they decided to go to Angola and look for the giant sable, which hasn't been seen in about 40 years. Wow. I didn't know your ma was into the extinct or alive stuff, too.

It's not like that, not like hasn't been seen. It's just they're there. Nobody goes there. Angola's full of landmines. There's literally a lead vehicle driving in front of them in case it hits a landmine. Wow, that's crazy. I hope they make more than minimum wage. Yeah, probably not. Driving that vehicle. Yeah. But, uh, rats or something. But yeah, so she, it's, Angola's interesting because they have everything from desert to guerrillas. So there she is. I don't, I haven't read the time.

text. I just saw the photos. That's a good photo right there. Yeah, but there's like a national geographic looking photo. And there's this moonscape in the desert. I mean, let's see. So there she is with one of the little tribes, I'm sure. I'm sure there's context. Oh, so that's a, that's a son Bushman. So have you ever seen like the gods must be crazy? Yeah. Yeah, that's, I can tell you, just based on their facial structure, that's a coy son Bushman. So that's a nomadic people that are now longer, no, now no longer nomadic due to the government stuff. but they used to be, you know, the coy sand, they'd roam across the desert and never, never stay in one place for more than a couple days, always looking for water. So that's cool, because I know she really wanted to see Koy San.

Dude, it's interesting to even kind of recognize the fact that this, that these types of people still are out there. Oh, yeah. Like, you know, these tribal people or whatever, just like nomadic people who are going around out there looking for water, even though I guess. So the government came in and kind of like took the land or what happened. I'm probably going to get this wrong, but it's actually kind of a sad story. So the Khoisan were, they're very small people. Like, I mean, maybe Kyle can look it up, but I think their average height is like five foot two or something. Oh, wow.

And when I want to say Germans settled this, I'm talking about like not that long ago, like a hundred-ish years ago, they hunted them for sport. Oh my God. And so the Koysan, yeah, it's crazy. So the Koysen, who were a people were hunted for a little while. and their population was knocked down to very, very little. That's fucking horrific. Oh, it's crazy. Yeah, and they treated them like a game, like a game animal.

Holy shit. Because they were these small, nomadic, you know, very crafty people and all that. Yeah. That all changed. There's incredible movie. Cannot recommend it enough to Brosners at home called The Gods Must Be Crazy. Yeah. One of my all-time favorite movies. About them?

About the Khoisan, yeah. Specifically about a guy who throws a Coke bottle out of an airplane. And the Coke bottle, the glass Coke bottle, it lands in the sand. It doesn't break. it's the hardest thing they've ever seen. Oh, wow. And it's a commentary on like human culture or just sort of human greed because the Khoisan live in a society where everything is shared and everything is equal,

but everything they have is just from the environment. Now they have a Coke bottle and it's the hard. There's no rocks out in the desert there. So it's the hardest, it's the most applicable tool they've ever found. Wow. They blow it and make sound, you know, when you blow the top of a bottle. Yeah. They hit things with it like a hammer.

And it's like it becomes this whole societal breakdown over who gets the Coke bottle. But it's very cute and well done. Yeah. But yeah, anyway, so my mom's on this extreme adventure to Angola. You know, she does this, like, dramatic thing she does every time where she's like, if I never see you guys again because I blow up in a landmine. But none of that's happened. That's good.

That's good that she hasn't blown up. Look at that woman's hair. Yeah. It's like kicked in clay or something? Something like that. It has to be. Interesting, yes. But yeah.

But this is not like put on for a show. You know what I mean? This is still the real deal out there. Yeah. She's just, yeah, she's just out there living amongst these people for fun. Yeah. That's, that's pretty wild. And she's, you know, she's up there in age.

In her 70s. Man, my mom can barely get off the couch. No, my mom, yeah, my mom's not giving up just yet. Let's talk about, so, I mean, all right, you said that, you know, she's out there kind of, this is why you are the way that you are. Because, I mean, was this something, I know your mom was a pilot, right? Yeah, Bush pilot. So she would kind of like take.

you on all these crazy adventures when you were small and like your dad was just going to work or like how did it work? It was pretty accurate. Yeah, I mean, so we grew up in Zimbabwe obviously and my mom ran safari businesses and was a bush pilot. So she would fly people in and out of the bush for safari. Uh-huh. What's your dad do?

Uh, development. Okay. So he was like a businessman. Yeah, big time. Yeah. Who didn't like that you had a pet monkey. He hated chippy. Yeah.

Um, but yeah, no, it was really my mom. I mean, my dad's a little. also from San Francisco. Oh, really? Yeah. I didn't know that. Oh, yeah. No, my dad's American.

That's why I'm here. It's my mom's side of the family going back six generations that have been in Africa. And so what happened? Your dad flew out there to do some development deal and met your mom? No, my mom traveled after college. She graduated from UCT and then was traveling around and, like, lived in London for like three months and then did this and did that.

And then she went to San Francisco and met my dad in the marina. Wow. Yeah. And then your dad moved there to South Africa. She moved into a sailboat with him. Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe. Yeah, she moved on to his sailboat in South Africa. Or sorry, in San Francisco.

Then they were there until my dad finished his MBA, which I think he got a Fresno state, if I remember correctly. Yeah. And they lived in Fresno for a year, which was apparently awful. Yeah, it's not the greatest. No, departure from Zimbabwe. Yeah, and then moved back to Zimbabwe. That's crazy.

Kyle, can you play the jingle? What's in the news? Peter's been dying. dying to talk about this hippo oh god can we see this video of this hippo

he's very angry I don't know if he's actually hungry can you is there audio or no dude that's a bad spot to be in not one of the most terrifying things that somebody should have

titled hangary hippo yep I mean get up that tree dude when the guy falls down and the hippo opens its mouth oh my god I mean he must have thought I'm about to get my feet chomped off.

Absolutely. He's very lucky, and I'll tell you what, that is a fully habituated hippo. Right. That knows that keeper, obviously. I mean, it's in a building. So what's happened here is that hippos trainer, keeper, caretaker, whatever you want to call it. Sure, yeah. Shit's gone wrong.

The guy's escaping from the hippo. The hippos lost its temper. But if this were a hippo, if those two didn't have a preexisting relationship, that guy would be dead 100. 110%. And what he would he would chomp it or he would step on it? Either or probably bite him, throw him in the air, stomp him. But the thing is that hippo, it's funny because I've talked about this so many times. Like hippos have this crazy, you know, snap response.

No fight or flight, just fight response. Right. But that hippo is showing restraint. Like right there, he's like, I'm not going to kill you. I'm not going to kill you. Go go back, Kyle. It looks like he might take a nip. No.

Okay. Or no, he pinned his foot down. I don't think he bit it. But it was like lower jaw pin it looked like. Yeah. Yikes. So he didn't bite it. But this relates to something that is in the news.

Oh. Tell me. Because I don't know about this video. It might be old. What he got? Well, a bunch of tourists, 11 of them. Yeah. A little boat.

And they were on a motorized canoe. Okay. Okay. Have you heard of the Sassandra River? Negative. Okay. That's an ivory coast. Where's that?

guess let's play that game again come on just say I mean so it's a hippo it's definitely got to be like what Africa yes yeah but like which part of Africa is the Ivory Coast northwest okay I was gonna say Northwest I was gonna say Northwest all right good

Ivory Coast tends to make the World Cup I feel like every other year every other World Cup yeah or maybe every World Cup I always root for them why just fun I don't know what reason they're the underdog yeah yeah yeah they're always an underdog like that but yeah I was

every coast is always my team but anyway All right. 11 people on a motorized, sorry, 14 people on a motorized canoe cruising down the Sasandra River, including women, children, and an infant. Oh, my God. Suddenly, they are flipped upside down

by an hippo. Oh, man. Incredibly annoyed. An infant. Eleven of the 14 people still missing. Yeah. Dude. So they're dead.

Yeah, of course. Yeah. It's very sad, obviously. So what do you, I mean, so they get flipped over, you think they just died from the power of the water, or do you think they got eaten? Well, I don't know this river, but I'll tell you what happens.

And literally, since this news came out six days ago, it's probably happened twice since and not been reported. Sure. This is literally a daily occurrence in Zimbabwe where I grew up. Not 11 people, but one or two or whatever, daily, daily. And most of them go unreported. So a couple things happen. First of all, believe it or not,

the majority of people in these countries, in these underdeveloped African nations cannot swim at all. So if a canoe flips and it's 10 feet deep, you die. Oh, man. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So that is more than likely what happened to. How many you're missing? 11. 11, yeah. My guess

and I'm totally basing this on nothing, the hippo probably killed one or two of them, and the other 10-9 died from drowning. Brutal. And that's just, and then this happens there every time. Now, I don't know that river, but if that's the river right there, I see four Nile Crocodiles behind that. That's what I was going to say, because I was imagining that it's full of crocs.

What the hell are they doing on a canoe out there? Like, why? Why go? Fish. With 11 people? You have to get across the river. I mean, so the Sessandra River gets really wide. That's certain points. Yeah, yeah.

Okay. So you don't have a choice. So they had to, they probably had to, like, they had to go somewhere. I mean, that might be how they're getting to the doctor. That might be how they're going to school. I mean, it's not like you think of you and I go into the doctor or school. That might be how they go to the store. buy millet once a month. You know, it could be fishing just for livelihood. Like, it can be

anything. Well, think about how many crock infested rivers we've crossed on ferry boats. Oh, yeah. That are made out of wood. Oh, yeah. So you're not driving, you're driving, you know, 10, 12 big-ass trucks. Yeah. On to a homemade wooden boat. Really? And crossing a pretty wide river that's brown mud. Oh, yeah. It's just full of crocs. You know, there's no, there's no point in wearing a life jacket. That's fascinating. I've told my similar story to this, right, about the guys that died in Kriva.

No, no, you talked about how the French tourists don't. No, I have a different story to that. When I was 21, 22, I went to Zimbabwe with Jess and two of my best friends, my buddy Ricardo, who's been on the pod,

and my other buddy Smitty. He came with Rick. Never been on the pod. Ricardo has. Smitty. No, Smitty has not. Yeah. He can't.

No, we'll never allow it. So Rick and Smitty, Rick and Smitty and came to Zimbabwe to meet up with Jess and I. And we just and I were spending like three months in Zim at the time. And we went up to Lake Cariba. And Lake Cariba is absolutely stunning. Maybe Kyle can pull it up and show you. It's one of my favorite place in the world. I grew up houseboating there.

It's the best. And it's got a lot of crocodiles. And so we went to the fishing game club, which is where we always stay on the lake. And I showed them all the shit we used to do. You run around at night. You smack hippos on the butt and you drive golf balls. What? You do stupid shit.

stupid African kid shit. The hippo slapping on the butt? It's really dumb. And I'm not encouraging anybody to do this. But one of the days we woke up and we're like, let's go fishing. And there's a little tinny boat, like a little square tinny boat that you row that, you know, four people sitting and it's riding this high off of the water. Okay.

And so we wake up and we're like, let's go catch some bream, some tilapia. We'll cook them up for dinner, right out in front of fish camp. A reasonable plan. Yeah, just go fishing with your friends. Nothing crazy. And so we load in. And it's really a boat built for two people, right? But we put four people in.

Me, Smitty, Rick, and Jess. The, the gunwale of the boat is riding about this high off the water, like a canoe does, but, you know, you could tell we're way overloaded. What a gunwale, sir? The side of the boat. Okay, good. And so we go on the end, you know, like, we're rowing and splashing and making noise and having fun. And there's hippos all over this lake, crocodiles, huge conditioned crocodiles to eat fish and stuff. because where you fish camp is where you clean your fish,

you can throw the frames back out. So there's a lot of big rocks. So there's crocs sitting there waiting. Oh, all day long. You see them all day long. But they don't typically mess with a big, you know, big square tin boat that four adults can sit in. Yeah.

Well, too. Typically. Two adults. So we go out, we fish, we catch four or five fish, whatever. And then we come back. And as we come back, there's two guys waiting there, two African guys. And they're like, hey, boy, how's what going on? Like, hey, yeah, hi, guys.

And they're like, can we take the boat and go across to go across to get some scud? It's like beer. Yeah, yeah, of course. Go ahead. You know, because they were like going to borrow it from us, paddle across. There's like a little bar shop on the other side of the lagoon, buy some beer and come back. I was like, yeah, of course. So we get out of the boat, the tinny.

And these two guys get in, big strapping Shauna black guys, you know, like big, really athletic, handsome guys. Okay. They take where not even from me to Kyle, they row like one, two, three. boom smash right under the canoe big like 14 15 foot now Kroc hits the tinny boat flips them over grabs one guy

drowns him right in front of us and we grab the other guy and pull him out of the river before the Kroc gets him we never saw the other guy again we saw the Kroc we saw the Kroc hit the boat we actually didn't see the Kroc hit the boat

we saw the boat flip and we all heard screaming and saw the boat flip and then we saw the Krocks tail as the guy went under and we grabbed the other guy. That is horrific And the story goes on a little bit. Like we gave him some money and blah, blah, blah, because his family came by and there was a whaling ceremony, which is a shawna thing they do. But what had happened to explain it is we had been out there floundering around.

It's kind of our fault. Not just being very honest. You never could have predicted this. But we had been out there in this little boat floundering around, making noise, splashing, catching fish, having fun. Yeah. And this big crock had locked in that because the boat was so tippy and overweighted and shit, it was going to try and eat us. But then we had pulled the boat in before it had made its attack, and it had probably sunk and down and waited.

And then these two other guys got in, pushed off, and it came up and hit it and killed that guy. Literally, I'm not kidding from like me to Kyle. It killed that guy. It's unbelievable. No, I did not. How are we on podcast 400 and you've never told the story? I thought I told that story in the early days.

Dude, that is horrific. So, I mean, you basically, you watched. So the guy. We never saw him get murdered. We just saw the crock tail and a big splash and squashed. screaming and we were pulling the one guy out. Yeah. And the other guy was gone.

That is unbelievable. That took a dark turn. They were just going to get some shub? That's terrible. Yeah. It's good. It's good. And then, yeah.

And then so we've got it real good over here in the U.S. His family came and, you know, we looked for the body. We went out at night with speedboats with flashlights, couldn't find anything. His family came. We paid for their wailing ceremony, which is like a thing the shunner culture do. Then they wailed and played drums all night and cried all night. and we sat with them and then it was over. So when you see an article like this that's in the news because it happened recently, right?

And it says, of course, hippos are highly dangerous killing 500 people a year. You know, we know that most of them probably don't get reported. When they say 500 that's reported, what would you guess the real number is? Probably about three times that. Okay. Yeah, because if you think about where hippo attacks are happening, like I'm honestly shocked that this is in the news. Right. I really am.

If you think about where hippo attacks are happening, I mean, literally, like, going back to where my mom is right now in Angola. Yeah. There's no news. Right. You know what I mean? Like in the entire country. Yeah. I'm sure there is in the whatever the capital is there, the small city.

But yeah. You know what I mean? Like you go 10 miles outside of that. There's no news. Yeah. There's no way. There's nobody filming there. No, there's nothing.

Nothing like that. I mean, you saw the people she's sitting with. Like, who do you think they're reporting to when somebody gets killed by a hippo? Dude. Yeah, exactly. The story that you just told. is really like just insane. I mean, you just...

So for the whaling ceremony, how many people were there? See if you can find a clip just to show it, Kyle, like Shauna, S-H-O-N-A, morning or whaling ceremony. So like 12, 20 people? There's probably like,

it was his whole family and part of the village, so probably like 20 or 30, but they don't, the way that... Let's see if something comes up. Unvailing ceremony. Yeah, a Zim funeral.

It's the same thing. It's probably pretty rare to see a video of this somewhere. It says right there, Zim Funeral. Try that. The third one down. But basically, they play drums all night and they wail to get their emotion out. So instead of like us, like here, yeah, put the audio on for a second. He's a skit. I don't know. Oh, it's a skit. That's why. But yeah, so it's not like this. I don't know what this is. So they're out there. This is how they mourn. So in that area where I grew up, and I grew up on a farm, so we had lots of workers on our farm. When someone dies, tragically, instead of having a quiet funeral and burying them and sobbing and saying goodbye, you get everybody together.

And it's like this emotional outpour. Yeah. So all night long, you're playing drums. There's a big bonfire. This is more of a Christian one. I don't know, whatever. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Here. This is it. This is it. Listen. It's like this. Yeah, this is correct. Okay.

And so you're singing and you're clapping and you're crying and it goes through like happy sometimes and then very upset sometimes and you stay up all night and do it. And then by the morning you're like sort of over it. You're not over it, but it's very different in the sense. I mean, look, it's not my culture. I'm not Sean. But from my understanding of experiencing it and seeing it many, many times in my childhood, by the time the next day

the grieving process is like most of the way over. Yeah. Versus when we lose someone here, you grieve for six months or a year because you never like let it out fully. Yeah, so it's very interesting. They're probably like somewhat more accustomed to these types of things happening out there.

Well, it's literally daily. Yeah, that's, man, that is crazy. I can't believe you never told that. I thought I had. I thought I told it on an early pod. Oh, boy. No, definitely now. Oh, I have pictures we can cut in too.

No, there's no body pictures, but pictures of when we're at the lake and the boat and all that. How big was the crock? I'm guessing 14 feet. I'm completely making that up. All we saw was like the back and tail as he went under. Enough to know that it's very big.

Oh, yeah. Big enough that it attacked that four-person duck boat, you know, a tinny boat. Yeah, how big of a boat, if you wanted to go out on that water and know that a crock couldn't flip you?

How big of a boat would you need? I mean, I would have said that boat was big enough. Okay. So I think it, like I said, it was obviously a very strange, situation where either the crock got startled or you know it had it noticed that we were making a mess

and splashing like it was not a usual circumstance but look that was probably a nine foot boat you know like one of those little two benchers square boat yeah yeah that's pretty big but not big enough but dude like that has got to be one of the worst ways to go what do you think the worst way to go is out of all ways you could go Monday baby football football how we feeling feeling good always on a Monday and it's an excuse to booze who are your picks on underdog this week i got amon or ross st brown the detroit lions higher for 75 and a half receiving yards Kyle what are you doing this week i'm actually going sam darnald he's going to be going higher than 230 and a half passing yards he's definitely not yeah that's insanely stupid um i like that though

it's a real dice roll what do you got i'm going to go baker mayfield for greater than 247 and a half passing yards. On underdog fantasy, right? You should probably make it clear that that's what we're doing that. No, I said. I said, we were your picks on underdog. Oh, you did? Okay. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's easy. You just, you know,

you pick a sport, you pick your favorite players if they're going to go higher or lower on stats like points, rebounds, steals, and more. And the best thing is you can get up to 5,000 times your money. Which is bonkers crazy if you think about it. I am yet to hit that jackpot, but if I get 5,000 times my money, you'll never see me on this podcast ever again, ever. Like, I'm leaving at that point.

What's the single most important thing that you guys rely on when you're on these adventures in remote places? I mean, to me, it's pretty obvious. When you're traveling somewhere that has rugged terrain, the vehicle that gets you there is the difference between having a great time or not so much. So when we're traveling, whether it's domestic or international, we always, always, always try to get Toyota trucks, right?

Oh, 100%. I think about when we were in Sinky DeBahara and Madagascar and the huge rains. I was just thinking about that trip. Yeah. Yeah, we had a caravan of about 10 trucks. And literally, and we have video of this, all the Toyotas made it out. And there were three or four other trucks that got stuck in the mud for multiple days. Patrick and I were, of course, in the Toyota's. Nice.

Dude, or have you been using your house of Atlas Shaver? Oh yeah, dude, every day now. Bro, I get the cleanest shave. Like, you can't tell now because it's the evening,

but my neck and cheek, my chubby cheeks that you love to make fun of me for. Yep. I'm talking like way better than a straight razor. I mean, that stainless steel blade that they have in there, it's next level. Oh, without question, dude, smoothest shave that I have had in years. No joke. It's, it's unparalleled. Dude, the precision trim edge when you're trying to hit the stash, Peter,

so that you don't get the little squigglys in the mouth. and then even their shave cream and after shave is incredible. Like I'm getting more neck action now than I ever got before. I'm telling you. Yeah, my wife is like, what's that smell? Oh, my God, you smell so good. Did you get? Oh, sorry, go ahead.

That's what my wife said. I found mine at Target. I know they're a sponsor of the pod now, but I started using the shaving cream before we got the razor as a sponsor because I bought it at Target. And I found out that they got them everywhere at Target, which is great. So stop wasting money and time on shaving products that don't look good. aren't effective and cost way too much.

Grab House of Atlas now at Target stores nationwide or online at Target.com. Being buried alive in a coffin. Okay, like that, you would actually go. Like, that might actually happen. That could actually happen. I think being burnt to death would be pretty awful. You think, yeah.

I can't think of anything worse than that. I think burnt to death would be terrible. Cracking my magic mind. I'm going gumming because we just had lunch. I want some dessert. You do have a bit of a sweet tooth. It's very cute. I do.

I'm going free because I've already had max and a regular. So this is big, big, big news with a twist. Do you guys remember as a kid? You might not, I don't know. Pizza Hut buffets? Oh, man, yeah. I loved them.

I think they got rid of them. I think supposedly a couple have brought them back. I did not know pizza had a buffet. Yeah, so when I was a kid, you could do it at night, they had a buffet. So they had several bunch of different kinds of pizza. They had breadsticks, pudding, salad. like that out ranch right yeah pizza obviously have you ever thought to yourself man what if what if the finest chain in america had a buffet arby's mcdonalds what do you think this isn't actually

news what's going on take a look at this photo they got a macdonalds all you can eat buffet in branson missouri wow so these photos start going around it starts getting reported by like very reputable media outlets. It goes viral. That McDonald's first all you can eat. Show the picture of the person with the tray, Kyle. This would have got me. You're going to tell me this is fake, aren't you? Next one over. One next one next to it.

It looks very legit. Yeah. Look at you piled up. Big Macs and nuggets and fries. It's being reported by a ton of websites. So it's got to be legit. It's not. It's not. Someone fucking made this hoax. Wow.

It's really clever. Local news all over the country. National news outlets are reporting on this McDonald's inaugural buffet. Yeah. People are excited. Absolutely. It's a freaking hoax. Are they going to do it now?

If I was McDonald's, I'd capitalize on it right away. 1299. That's not nearly enough. That's the problem. You'd have to make it 30 bucks. At least. $30 McDonald's buffet. But dude, I will say this, man, with the AI pictures and vids coming,

I get so annoyed because I'm not always thinking that in my head when I'm just scrolling shit. And I get tricked by them almost every time until I look at the comments. Right. You know? And it's infuriating because I'm just like, God damn it, you got to be smarter than this. When you have to be smarter than this. When you look at this picture, can you tell that this is an AI picture?

I did not until we said it was fake. And then you zoomed in and I could see like the guy's forearms and stuff. Zoom in on those forearms. I want to see what can we pick out of this AI? What are those chicken nuggets? They're huge. Yeah. Look at those. Those are like tenders.

They're way too big. And why do they have two colored fries? Yeah, like if you examine this. Also, this restaurant would be completely full. Yeah. There's empty tables. There's empty booths. There's also like.

Also, look at those. No McDonald's burger looks like. They're big. They're perfect looking. Look at her face, too. Are those tater tots? What's in the middle? The middle eastern looking lady's face.

She's like missing a chin. You know, the go-to used to, why has he got a middle finger out there? Zoom in on his finger, Kyle, down the guy at the thing. Zoom in real big. Keep going. As much as I go. Oh, click on the goddamn picture. He has something wrong with his fist.

Open it. He's also yelling. What's he yelling at? But I do not notice that that's fake. Do you right away? Yeah. See, I think that's a generational. Kyle.

Yeah. What do you notice? Just looking at a lot of AI images. Yeah. Be like, there's just certain. It's the focal length of the lens. What speaks out to me is the grain of the photo. That is a giveaway for me.

The outline of the of the humans in it looks a little weird. Is it too, photoshopped in or something? Is it too saturated? Like every color is too colorful? Yes. But also like, I don't know what like lens that would be.

It just, there's something about the, it doesn't look like an actual picture. That's going to go away though. You know that. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. In a few months, you're not going to be able to tell. No way. Dude, the video already like in movies and commercials, because I know a lot of editor friends, they're already using AI on the DL

to do things like, you know, where they would do like a green screen of a car driving, and it looks way more natural on a green screen. I got duped literally last night at about 11 p.m. sitting on Instagram, saw a nice pair of boobs, clicked them, AI, AI influencer check. Can I tell you guys? I mean, it only took me a second to realize it wasn't a real human, but I literally went from that like main home menu.

you to be like, ooh, what's she all about? Dude. And, yeah, fake, not a real person. You asked me, remember I sent you a couple pictures of some females and I was like, which one would you subscribe to on OnlyFans? You did, yeah. And you asked me, what are you scheming? And I was like, yeah, yeah, it's just vague about it.

So I've been, I think that learning how to create consistency within AI, like, consistent characters or settings is going to be like one of the kind of the most marketable skills you can have in TV or commercial, whatever, anything, especially like advertising. And so I got a couple courses that basically walk you through how to build AI models that you can keep consistent and look real. That are people? Yeah.

So my thing to learn it and have fun with it is I'm building an AI influencer that I'm going to just basically try and trick people to believe that is a real person that I'm going to create an Instagram account with and then a fan view account with. So you need to make that person have something that makes you follow them, which I don't mean it's big kits. A niche. You need to give, they need to be an animal person or a sci-fi person or yeah. Intricately been reading about how to make this profitable endeavor.

But you know what? The biggest niche is, it's literally like like down home earth, like friendly girl, like like an amateur neighbor style girl. So, like, that is the niche that sells the best. So you're trying to drive people to an only fans type account? Yeah, fan view. Because they allow AI characters. What is fan view? It's only

fans, but it's... But they allow AI. Yeah. Oh, I see. So on only fans, you can't be AI. I don't know. I don't really care. But it's just... It all sounds really gross, and you sound kind of like a perf to me now. He's trying to make money. I did run it past my wife because

I was like, are you cool if I do this, she's like, well, yeah, she's like because, you know, you could do that or you could sell pictures of your feet. I don't really see the difference in purviness. So sell pictures of your feet. Well, not my feet are bad. My feet are bad. Did we do the what's in the news jingle?

Yeah. Before that last year, all right, because I got one more news I wanted to do. I can't wait to trick Forest into my following my AI Fan Voo account. I was looking for the feet. So, Costa Rica, beautiful place. Love it. guy there just caught a shark that is unbelievable looking. Kyle, just pull up

the shark. I don't want to say anything else. I just want to show it to these guys. This is real, by the way. That's a goldfish, sir. Isn't that crazy? That's a shark. It's a bright orange, I'm going to guess, six foot long shark of some type. Yeah. That literally looks like a goldfish, maybe combined with a catfish. A bright orange shark

with white eyes. What's going on with this thing? Is there another picture of it, Kyle? Yeah, there's a few. Look at this. Holy shit. It's got the fin and everything. Yeah, so some guy was fishing in Costa Rica, hooked up, and he caught this big nurse shark. And it's, I think it's Xanthic. Is that right? Wow. Yeah, Xanthanism and albinism.

What is that? So it showed signs of Xanthanism and albinism. What's Xanthanism? I know what Albinism. Zanthism. Sorry, not Xanthanism. Zanthism. I don't really know what Zanthism is. It's something to do with the chromosomes, but I don't really know what the difference

between that and albinism is. The genetic condition that results in abnormal. Pigmentation. Of yellow pigmentation in the skin. Okay. So that made it orange. because it was yellow and white. Basically, yeah.

Okay. So, but what's so crazy, yeah, so it's a genetic mutation, obviously, just like we get, you know, an albino human or whatever. Yeah. But it's just, it's like you said, it's like a goldfish. I mean, this thing should, and I'm not all for collecting, bright orange. And I'm not big on collecting animals from the wild to keep. This thing should be in an aquarium.

Yeah. That is an incredible creature, one in a zillion. And what's so remarkable is that it's made it to adulthood. Because if you think about it, you know, when nurse sharks are typically brown brown brown brown trying words brownie gray right they're typically browny gray and they blend

into the mud this thing looks like a highlighter colored it in oh yeah and so the likelihood of surviving to adulthood is super slim right because it would be snapped up right away because you could see it like a lure basically any big fish any any kubara snapper any barracuda any barracuda any

larger shark any bird is like oh look at that thing that's why we paint fishing lures bright orange right literally do the parents protect Like, does a nurse shark parent protect? No, no, no. No, it's out in the wild. He gone. Wow.

Yeah. That is pretty crazy. So the guy released it, right? I believe so. Yeah, I'm sure. Okay. I mean, I don't know, you know, what would you do? He's out on a fishing boat probably looking for tuna.

Yeah. Glad I got some videos and pictures, though. It's probably something that's never been photographed before. Yeah, I think I saw in the article somewhere that there's been one once before in Florida or something like that. Yeah. But yeah, it's incredibly rare and just so cool. You know, if you think about it, like,

what is it? They say like one in 10,000 sea turtles makes it to adulthood or something, right? And that's just a normal brown sea turtle. Yeah. So now you add in this, and I know it's not a sea turtle, it's a shark. But the likelihood of that thing surviving to adulthood must have been one in a million. Do sharks have litters or do they have one? How many do they?

Nurse sharks pop like three to four, I think, at a time. That's not very many. Yeah. Wow. Okay. But yeah, it's pretty incredible. I mean, that would be quite something to see. It really would.

Yeah. And where was this again? Costa Rica. Yeah. I've never been. Still never been. That's a pity. It's such a great country.

Dude, I have been nowhere. Where can I go for us to get out of us? You know what? You don't have to go all the way to Costa Rica. In fact, why don't we do a detour destination brought to you by Toyota? Let's do it. All right, let's say you live. Road trip.

Yeah, road trip. One of my favorite road trips anywhere on the planet, hands down. You do not have to travel to the ends the earth. You go to Northern California. Okay. The road trip. starts in San Francisco. So whether you land an SFO and rent yourself a nice Toyota truck

or you drive all the way there, that's where it really starts. Okay. Once you leave San Francisco, you drive north, you go to Tamales Bay. Oh my God. Never heard of it. What's going on there? It is delightful. When you get to Tamales Bay, you go to the Tamales Bay Oyster Company.

You sit outside in this beautiful bay. They shuck oysters, Hog Island Oyster Company. See if you can find that, Kyle. Looks nice. It's stunning. Oyster Company on Tamales Bay. You sit there right there like that over this view. They shuck you this giant plate of fresh oysters that they've pulled right out of the ocean right there.

So you have that beautiful plate of oysters, fresh seafood. You've got this like cool, misty Norkel breeze. So you leave the Hog Island Oyster Company. You go on this unbelievable road. Kyle, find the highway, the highway one. And you wind up and down the coast. You head through Jenner. It's scenic.

You're starting to get redwoods on the coast with coastal bluffs. Hills of grazing sheep. It is so iconic, so postcardish. Yeah. But as you come over this unbelievable windy area, you've got coast on one side, you've got redwoods. Instead of continuing along the coast,

you take a little right to a secret town of Duncan Mills. Okay. All right. As you go to Duncan Mills, you follow this unbelievable river and this area to me that looks more, more like Jurassic Park than Jurassic Park itself. I don't know how to explain it.

There's this one little highway. See that highway going to Duncan Mills there? And it is these giant ferns that are like 12 feet tall, big redwoods, like unbelievable canyons. And in Duncan's Mills, there's the general store and the bakery that has the best baked goods on planet Earth. I've never been anywhere that has better baked goods than that. So you get yourself some nice muffins or some delicious bread? You pick up some hot, fresh danishes, things like that.

Then you continue up the coast. You go to Guilala, California. Guala? Guala. Guala. Guala. Guala. All right. Now, you're not going to stay in Guilala. You're going to stop there at one of the very many cute little spots.

There's trinket stores, things like that. While you're there, they have the only place I've ever seen it. You can buy a live termite round. You know the one in my office has the termites living in it? Yeah, it's incredible. Wow. Super cool, like an ant farm, but for termites. Nice.

Then you go check in to the Sea Ranch Inn, which is this private, like, gated community resort thing overlooking the hills. Perfect vacation. Dude, very nice. Very doable. Yeah, it doesn't seem like out of reach, doesn't seem that expensive. No, dude, one thing that's underrated and I wondered if I had this experience uniquely, but I did a trip from, I drove from L.A. all the way up to Vancouver. And driving through Northern California,

because I drove through the night. Yeah. Because I was young and could do that. No way. But, and like the sun had risen, and it was super misty and foggy. And there's a stretch of that drive up the coast

where there are sheep farms everywhere. Yeah, exactly. And there's just like, it's, it gets a lot of rain up there. So it's just like these, like, you feel like you're, like what I picture in like Ireland.

Yeah, like Northern, Northern UK. of sheep with like this mist hanging off the ground. I was like, this is magical. Wow. Yeah. It's, I mean, that's where we go for Friendsgiving every year. Oh, yeah. Yeah, and I just, I love that place.

It's so stunning up there. It's like Lord of the Ringsy. Yeah. Anyway, that is your detour destination of the week. Head up to Sea Ranch, Gualala, Tamala's Bay. Brought to you by Toyota. Nice. Yeah.

Um, I discovered, by the way, I asked, because I've been using chat GPT more for stuff. Uh-huh. I was a very late. I'm glad you're a very late adopt. Late bloomer. Incredibly late adopter. And I, I, I, I, figured out what it's good for and what it it sucks at. Yeah, writing is terrible. Oh,

it's getting better. That I wouldn't do. But I'm a writer. I can't. Yeah, you can't. It's sacrilege for you. But, uh, dude, I spent an hour and a half trying to give this thing prompts that would make it do this correctly. Uh-huh. So the baseball schedule is out for next year, MLB schedule. Yeah. So I have a group of buddies and we've decided. that we are going to do something that we've always wanted to do, which is we're going to pick a place, fly to it. Okay. It's an algorithm that we've got to figure out here.

Okay. Rent a car and then road trip and hit a different major league ballpark every day until we end up on the East Coast. Oh, fun. Where there's a cluster of cities that have baseball stadium. That sounds like a perfect task for chat. All it needs to do is pull up all the team's home schedules. Yeah.

The location. said minimize, you know, minimize drive time. Yep. But figure out the best route and you can, you can start anywhere you want. Okay. This is a math problem. Yeah, yeah. Right.

Logic problem for sure. Cannot do it. No matter what it was doing, it was including flights. Yeah. It would then have like a 13 hour backtrack. I was like, what are you doing? And like, I kept giving it more and more instructions. Getting more and more angry.

It's just too big of a math problem for chat GPT 5.0 to handle. It's crazy. Wow. You're using 5.0. It's got to, from my limited experience, and Peter uses it all day long, I know that. I use it a lot, yeah. You've got to give it the simplest instructions and then build on it.

So you're like, do problem A, now do problem A plus B. Now do A plus B plus C. Yeah. If you go straight to C, it's just like chaos theory. The problem, too, is now it's a little bit better, but you do have to do that to get what you want. And before, I think GPT-5 is a little bit better at this, but it would forget like A by the time you were on like Z.

Yeah. And so like now it's all, you just got to like start from square one again. Well, I hope it all goes away. So are you able to figure this out? Are you going to do it? No, no.

I just was like me and a couple other guys are just going to get together and just you'll get an actual map with some more push pins. And they're going to just end up going to the Dodgers Stadium. What I really would have liked is if GPT gave you the instructions and you just relied on them. And then you like just went along. You had it up like 15 hour backtrack. Return the car. Take a wrong way.

It's like you're out of your mind. I love it. Yeah, it's ridiculous. Technology. Do we going to add something else to that? Yeah. Just like I know it's something that two humans can figure out in an hour and a half. So you think with like, you know, all the computing power in the world.

Apparently not. You should be able to get it. You dried up a whole lake with that. Hey, Kyle. I know. I'd like to play a game. Give me a jing. Number one.

Number two. Oh, yeah. Dead fucking lost. Nice. Boom. Good one. What do we got today? We haven't done a top three DFL in a while.

And I, unfortunately, on my flight home the other day, I tried to watch the new Captain America movie. Uh-huh. Hor riff. Not good? Oh. Why bad? There's literally, a better question would be why good?

Okay. Because there is not one instance in that movie that I. I thought something was good. And it led me to this thought. That actor. Basically, here's the thing. The new Captain America is the old falcon, the Captain America's sidekick, who's now been upgraded to Captain America.

But he has no super power. So they don't use Chris Evans anymore? No, it's, I don't remember his name. Doesn't matter. The guy who plays the falcon. Who gives a fuck. Exactly. But now this guy, man, I just don't know his name.

Who cares? Move on. Keep going. He is Captain America, with no superpowers. And he somehow beats a bigger Hulk just by having a lot of heart. Okay.

Yeah, sure. I was outraged. I thought it was terrible. It was bad acting. It just wasn't a very good thing. So what's the fucking DFL? Sorry, go ahead. So I want to do best slash DFL superhero powers.

Because I was thinking if I were putting that to have. Oh, superhero powers? How about we do superheroes? How about just best superpowers on DFL? Yeah, man. There's so many. That's right. That's the whole point. I'm gonna go first.

Please. And we're not allowed to have repeats here. Apparently not. And that's why you took first. Yeah, exactly. There could be repeats. I desperately want one. There's some that I know you want.

Yeah. I have no idea what you want. Yeah, I have no idea what you want. It's going to be communicating with aliens. Zero question. So I'm going to take the ones that I really want. Go for it. Genuinely.

Yeah. Love hangers. Invisibility. Wasn't on my radar. It's number three, not number one? Yeah, that's number three. Okay. I mean, just think about what you could do.

I can go in the girls' locker room. That implies children. Well, you know what I mean. At an adult gym, I suppose. You just lost Kyle. He just laughed so hard. I heard it at this room in the next door room. It's a trope.

But I mean, there's a lot of stuff you could do. Rob a lot of bangs. Yeah, you just hang out in the open vault. Yep. Dude, think about that. You could. I wasn't even planning to rob a bank. Now I absolutely.

I would, yeah. Because they would watch the security video and they would think it was a ghost. Yeah, exactly. You could not get in trouble. Think about how many ghost hoaxes you could pull off, just pranking people on their ring cams. Oh, the pranking would be phenomenal. But if you step in flower, does your footprints? Of course.

Yeah, we've got to be careful. That is you've got to be careful of not step. Kyle, please don't interject. All right. All right. So invisibility. Reading people's minds. You're taking every goddamn power.

Keep going. He's not too. I'm not even taking some of the low-hanging fruit here. Reading people's minds is a mixed bag. Because every time your wife is just pissed at you, that is like fucking idiot. You know, just thinking it. You're hearing it.

You're hearing it. Uncontrolled reading people's minds would be awful. I'm assuming I can turn it on and off. Do you have to like, is there like a very clear indicator? Like, you know, you have to touch your temple. You got to start whacking it. He's fucking. Just do this.

You start scratching your butt hole. Yeah. He's reading my mind. I'm picking my superpower. I'm not going to choose that. Imagine Pat's butthole. All right. Jesus.

Move on here. Please don't. Haneous. Let's go. Wait, he's picturing it. I'm mad at you took that one. All right.

I don't need to hold my breath under water. I don't need to do that. I'm going second by the one. So the flying bit is a bit. Yeah. Yeah. So what's number one? Applying.

I would want that. You suck. I'd love to fly. That's great. I mean, that had to come off the table as somebody number of the car. Yeah. Who doesn't want that? DFL should be interesting.

DFL for me is easy. What's that? Aquaman. You don't want to be able to go underwater? What does he do? He talks with dolphins. Yeah. Look, no, I just don't want to be able to swim underwater.

He doesn't like the water. He doesn't like the water. Pat only likes swimming pools. It's true. Even if I could breathe underwater, it doesn't take away the fear of sharks, et cetera. And so at all the other superpowers, you'd be invisible under that. Yeah, I'm not going to use it. Fair enough.

I don't want to waste that one. I'm going to go second just because, I mean, you're miserable. I can't do it. He took all the good superpower. You wouldn't have taken invisibility. Definitely would have taken invisibility. All right, so I want to go number three. Even though he wants to be a pervert.

Now you do. You're a sick pig. So number three, I'm going to go with the power to be able to regenerate my health quickly. No matter what it is. Like the Wolverine style. Basically, yeah. It doesn't matter if it's an open wound or like a heart attack. Like, it doesn't matter.

I mean, that's, that's Wolverine, right? It gets cut and it heals up. You get shot, you get healed up. That's nice. That's probably the best one. It probably is, actually, because you can really live life to the fullest of that. It's pretty good. So,

man, he took the ability to fly, which is annoying. I know my number one, but number two is a little more difficult. He took the ability to fly like Superman, but if you want to do a subset, like, if you're like, like, if you want wings, that'll fly. So what I, what I, was thinking is... But you just have to think about that. When I was pushing, like, if can we pick superheroes, my number two would be Ironman. Because he's like a technological genius, well, technological genius who, like, was able to build a robot suit that can fly and do all this shit.

So I will say, like, okay, superpower having an invincible flying suit. Okay? I thought you were going to say super intelligence, but... Nah, I don't care about that. That's the dumbest rocks full. Also, everybody is super intelligent to press. Did you say it's not very believable? No, not that useful.

Okay. Number one, and this has always been my number one, man, because I just think it would be fucking awesome, man, if I could teleport in an instant. Oh, yeah, I wanted that. You took that very good. This is since I'm a kid, like, I want to be able to teleport. I would take it over invincibility and, like, immortality.

Kind of where I was going with flying was I could get places quick. Yeah, without dealing with airport security. But that's even better. Teleport. That was definitely in my top three. It's honestly one of the best ones. I think everybody's top 10 for sure. DFL is super easy for me.

And this superhero has always annoyed me because it's the stupidest superpower. They like try to make cool things out of being able to shoot web out of my wrist. Yeah. It's pretty lame. It's pretty lame. It's so dumb. Okay. That is stupid.

Man, I'm really bummed. You took teleportation. That was high. No, it's good. I mean, teleportation and flight are two of my tops. But those are out. So coming into number three for me would be super strength. It's good.

It's not applicable on a daily basis. What are you going to do with it? What am I not going to do with it? You can do a lot. You can move a car. You're mostly just going off for novelty. That is true. But like, imagine you're just like, your wife's like, can you move the car?

And instead of getting the car, you pick it up. That is cool. That is literally just showing off, but it's funny. Also rugby. Oh, my God. Yeah. Yeah. And any physical activity that you could possibly do.

By the way, if you just go super strength and super speed, that's it. You're the best athlete in the world. Pretty much. No matter what. And then that's awesome. One of the things about super speed is like if you're going so fast, what if you run into something? You can still trip.

Yeah, you can. And that's some skid burn right there. Yeah. No, but I would love super strength. Yes, for rugby and sports and things like that. But just the idea that like this is going to sound so dumb and so nerdy. Nerd. But I'm going to say it anyway.

when I go out rock flipping to look for herps and things. If I just saw like a boulder that was like the size of three cars and I'm like I know there's a coyote den under there. I'm just like, baby coyotes. Yeah, you could do a lot with that.

That would be cool. I'd enjoy that. I'd find a lot more animals. You could get another animal planet show. I could, yeah. So super strength coming in number three. Number two for me, man, you guys took some good ones.

I really like the idea of having like unbelievable climbing abilities. I considered that. Yeah, I don't really know what that super, like what you'd call that, but you're like, just boom, boom, boom, boom, up a wall or whatever.

Like Alex Honnold times 20. Yeah, yeah. Like no chance of falling off. Right, you're just, you're cat-like in your dexterity and your movement. You can scale up a mountain up the side of a building.

Yeah, that would be like to the super ability. Number one for me, it's not Aquaman. It's just the ability to breathe underwater and see clearly underwater. I don't want to talk to fish. I don't.

I don't want to talk to dolphins. I don't want to live in a house underwater. I don't want to control them. Nothing. I just want the ability to stay underwater without my skin melting off and breathe and be there. I love being underwater. That's a detriment to your health, though, sir, because you could stay underwater for as long as you want. You're going to start going deeper and deeper until your head explodes.

But that's part of the power. Oh, okay. Okay. I'm as comfortable underwater as I am on land. How deep can you go? let's say to a thousand feet I don't need to go That would be awesome

Yeah you know like Dude for me You don't like it Pat You'll get eaten I might But I would explore an experiment so much Like I'd be all over the islands Like oh man

How deep are giant octopus I don't know 3,000 Well the Crackin is about 12,000 Ah yes yes we know that Factually the Cracken And then DFL for me Is reading people's minds

I don't want that What if you could turn it on it off I don't think I want it I don't think I want to know. Sure. Like, I know that people are not always saying nice things about me, and that's the only thing that I would use it for,

candidly. Of course. And then I'd be like, well, that's really mean. And even though people will think that and then they don't mean it, I would always hang on to that. Like,

I think it would ruin many of my relationships. Well, and imagine, you know, like how kind of self-conscious you are, like people are already thinking about what the other person is thinking while having a conversation.

Yeah. And it's, it is a horrible detriment two to three times a day. Just when you walk into something, you're like, oh. I just smell everything right away. And a lot of times it trips you up. Yeah. Because like I'll, if there's something burning, like within like 15 houses. Kind of deal.

I'm like, fuck, something's burning. And I'm like, am I having a stroke? Yeah. Am I having a stroke? It's kind of like rough being you, Pat. You got a thing with the lights, over sensitive to the lights. No, I just got the smell. Well.

You make each other laugh. You try and make the judge laugh and come up with ridiculous scenarios. It's really fun. Yeah. It's the same way we play on the pod. Yeah. And we're, you know,

look, we made several thousand copies and they're now sitting in a warehouse on Amazon. And Amazon is like, you know, you guys got to do something with it. And we've never tried to push the game. So this is us trying to push the game, honestly.
