It's not playing. Are they, pull up the chat. Can they see us? Yep. Okay, cool. There we go. Yeah, yeah, we're good now. We're good now.

Also, Pat. You can look at the chat here. All gray bars here. I like that. That's great. That's great. Yeah, what's up? What's up?

What's up, everybody? And now my mic is on. Yeah, baby. Last time we did a live for us, just you and me, people told me not to scream in the mic as much this time. Matt McHugh is on. Brocolio. First of all, listen, we're not going to do the intro and all that. You know who we are.

You wouldn't be here. Agreed. Agreed. But welcome anyways. But welcome. Secondly, for all of those that are tuning in at 2 p.m. on a, what is it, Wednesday? I have no idea. Sure is.

Yeah. Get out of here. Go get a job. It's a matter with you, people. They're all watching it work, mate. day off, man. Charles Darwin says what's popping. Charles Darwin is here.

Wow. That's nice. I didn't know he was still alive. I thought he was extinct. No, no. He's good. But this is big. This is 100th episode of the wild times. We've got your comments streaming live. We've got Kyle in studio with us here today. He is managing everything.

Of course, Papa Pige is over here. Cheers, mate. He's got his blob. By the way, you guys got to do more blob fishing. We thought we'd get more than this. I think we have four submissions so far. Hashtag blobfishing. But I do like the one guy who made a whole new account

on Instagram and just followed us and it's called blob fishing. Put one picture of him blob fishing. By the way, remind him what blob fishing is? God, we're morons. No, I like it. I think blob fishing could get huge. And Patrick is here, of course, because I've mentioned the other two. He is going to help us make the podcast brilliant. As though it is. A dangerous animal next to Pat. He has no idea.

Randy Kay, you have no idea. It's not even a joke. Explain what's going on over there, Patrick. Well, Charlie's just out of frame, and he's really acting like he's very cute and lovable, which he is at times. Tickle his belly. You should tickle his belly.

That's a way to lose a finger. You know, I am truly one bad move away from a grumpy dog biting the shit out of me. Yeah, he's very erratic. It's a thylosine. Get Neil Waters, Luke, YouTube says. Dude, thank you, everyone, for being. being here, we started this podcast on the very first episode.

Yeah, March 2020 garage. We talked about a news item that was circulating about this disease called COVID and whether we thought it was going to be a big deal or not. Wild. The following week, we were canceling shoots. Right. Season three of Extincter Alive was canceled. Quarantined at home.

Quaranteed at home. So we started this before COVID was a big thing in the U.S. We started this podcast before Peter even. knew that he was going to ever have a kid in his life. That's correct. I was not married. I didn't have a kid. I was close. Yeah, I was. I was single. Yeah. A lot's changed. A lot's changed in a couple years. Thank you guys for. I still remember, and I shouldn't admit this out loud, I still remember being like COVID's so stupid. It's like bird flu. It's like we're

all going to be worried about it for a week and then it's all going to fuck off. You did say that. And I was wrong. Nice mullet for us. Thank you. Thank you. I'm working on it. Oh, wrong. I'm growing out the back and getting the sides shaved. I'm trying to get a full mullet. I don't have to be on camera as far as I know, so I'm going full mullet.

How are you all doing out there in YouTube land? Is anybody drinking in the middle of the day right now with us? Your wife's house looks like Matt McHugh's comment. Retap, your wife's house looks lovely. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. You look lovely too, Matt McHugh. Been here since day one. I love you. Somebody's asking what the bruise are.

What do we got? We got some fat tire in the bowl. Fat Tire in the ball. I got one of those Sierra Nevada sunny little things that I stole from my wife. And Patrick made us cocktails. What did you make us? Lovely, lovely Bombay Sapphire. Very nice.

And tonic. Yeah, Cheers everybody. Nothing like a midday drink during the work week. JS2 is smoking a fat blunt. That's, that's all right. We need some questions, guys.

Part of making the podcast live and fun is questions to answer. I saw one question. I'm going to answer. If you want your question to be bumped up, throw us a dollar. You can do that. Oh, yeah, that's right. Peter's very, very poor. He's a businessman.

He's a businessman. It takes a lot of air conditioning to make these vaulted ceilings work with the cooling. That's right. Thank you. It costs $750. Oak Dagger says,

can you try Extincter alive with a different network? Forrest, what do you think of that? Can you bring that question up on there? Yeah, I think good. I don't know. I don't really know how that works, to be honest. They obviously, the network obviously owns the rights

to that show and that name, that brand. I'm sure we could tweak, fiddle, and do it somewhere else. Could try. It's tough to do. It's tough to sell any TV right now. The buyers are less and less, and like the world's weird. James Izard says he just sent 20 pounds. I don't know if he's joking. Wow. So does he have a question? No question from James.

Thanks for me. Okay, take off James. Thanks for coming. Thank you, Raoul. Everybody's talking about my looks bad or good. I like it. I don't care. Kyle, you got to start pinning some comments, man. They're coming in quick. I saw a comment a little bit ago. And they just wanted to know if you would ever dive with Orcas for us. That's a great question.

That is a good question. Would I ever dive with Orcas? That is in my top three bucket list things to ever do. What are you doing? Peter's losing his fucking mind over here. Peter, you're falling apart. Sorry. All right.

Yes, I'm ruining the live. Peter's ruining the life. Would I ever die with Orcas? That is in my top three bucket list items to do. I've never done it. You had a chance to. In Alaska? Yeah.

I did. But so the way that that whole thing shook out is we rushed out onto the boats and went like seven miles from where the stuff was and didn't have the dive gear with us. And I wasn't hopping into my skivies in Alaska at one in the morning. People do it. I've seen videos of free divers with orcas. Oh, yeah. Plenty. What you got to do is you got to target race or fish specialists, not mammal eating specialists.

So certain orcas, transient orcas, there are certain ray-eating groups. We've talked about this a lot on the pod. Like certain ones that target rays to eat and target fish to eat, and then there's ones that eat mammals. You don't want to hop in with the mammal eaters. Understood. But my buddy Mike Nalti, he lives down in Bay of L.A. If you guys don't follow him on social media, he's a great follow, by the way.

Nutty Nulte is his handle. In fact, he just, actually, Kyle, pull this up. Or maybe you kind of pull stuff up in this. I don't know. Okay. Kyle, pull this up. Go to Instagram. Go to My,

Mike Nalti's page, he put up a video of me today, actually, coincidentally. Like I said, this guy's incredible follow on Instagram. He chases the orcas around all year long. Like, that's one of the reasons he lives in Baja is he's like waiting for the orcas. He hangs out in Bay of L.A. Whenever they come in, he goes out and films with him. And he put this video up of me that Kyle, Kyle, you shopped this, didn't you? No, I think that was either Mike or Johnny.

Is that an orca? Is that an orca? No, no, those are gray whales. Oh, okay. One, two, two, two, and a cough, three, four, five gray whales and a cough right there. And that was with Mike. Well, Kyle was there with me. He didn't shoot it, but he was there when we did this.

So that was pretty fun. Cool. Yeah. Can we bring the chat back up? Yeah, Kyle, do me a favor. Bring the chat back up. If you get a good question, click on that question in the chat, and it'll bring it up on screen for us so we can focus on it. Okay, here we go.

A zillion more questions. This is good. Other than herpetologists, what group of scientists knows the lead? the least amount about their group. Oh, good question. Because you've made fun of herbs, because you are. Yeah, we just decided to make a shirt, HerpNerds.

Other than herpetologists, what group of scientists knows the least about their study subjects? Botanists. It's got to be botanists. Really? I feel like it's... No, mycologist. It's got to be my colleges. Was that mushrooms? Mushroom study years. They only focus on the magic mushroom. Well, no, I just think that, like,

it's like we learn more and more about fungus like every year and like now it's all trendy and topical. I think Joe Rogan made it topical. Sure, yeah. It's like, you know, now there's like Paul Stamitz has these specials on Netflix and stuff. But I feel like until then it was just like, these are mushrooms. Right. Well, and then you find out all this interesting, crazy stuff about them like they communicate underground.

Someone just super chatted that they want me to take my shoes off. Join the crew. Okay. You got to do it. I got to join the barefoot. Hey, guys, been a fan of the pod since Peter's creation of a bat. snakes had a needlepoint rat tail that was a good one and then their question was animal con update oh i'm going i booked my tickets yesterday great yeah animal con Orlando Florida August 26th through the 28th

I'm guessing yeah um thank you uh Orlando Florida convention center animal con I'll be there you guys can't make it right no I have a baby now and there's COVID so I cannot go but forest will definitely doing book porn right now. Forrest will definitely pass all of your insults to me like he always does. Pass on insults. Yeah, like you always, if somebody like has an insult, you send me a video of them saying it whenever you meet the fans. No, anytime I meet a fan, they immediately insult you. It's great.

I love it. It really makes me feel good. So that's the AnimalConn update. Forrest is going to be there. Don't kill him. If you are a stalker of Forrest Jolanti, don't kill him. Somebody asks a question, if you could eat one. one of the weirdest animals without consequences, what would it be?

I've always wanted to eat a Garibaldi. What's a Gary? I don't even know what that is. It's our California state fish. Kyle, pull up a picture of Garibaldi. Are people seeing this in the live when you pull up a picture? They're looking at it exactly what we're looking at me. Oh, well, I'm confused.

If the California state fish of Garibaldi, it looks like an ocean goldfish. It really does. And there's no reason that it should be illegal to kill them or anything because there's zillions of them. It's just because they're the state fish. And I'm just like, you know what? I want to eat one. Yeah.

I want to taste. But aren't goldfish carp and they're like notoriously disgusting? Yes, but these are not. These are damsel fish. But they look. Oh, damsel fish. There's a different group of fish. They're horrible fish.

I had one in a saltwater tank and it was. It can be. It was very easy to raise and keep alive unlike every other fish I had in the tank. But it was very aggressive and attacked all of the other fish and ate the shrimp that I had. That's pretty accurate. But yeah, I'd like to eat with no consequences. I'd like to eat a Garibaldi just to say I did. Pat, pufferfish, blowfish.

Patrick is reading every comment. I know. I feel bad. There's so many good ones that are coming in hot and heavy. Just like Kyle pull them up. Oh, I would eat a motherfucking pepperoni pizza. But I wanted to be as good and as exciting as it was when I ate pizza when I was a kid. You know what I mean?

Like I eat it too much now. That's the weirdest animal. The money. Yeah. Pepperoni. It's a pig. So you want like in the pepperoni to have. I'm desperate to eat sea turtle.

It says bird. Toes. Hey, I want to this one. I want to eat a thylosine something says Forrest. I went to your high school. Did you have Mr. Hurley as a teacher? Yes, I did. I did have Mr. Hurley. Where did you go to high school? Coast Union High in in Cambria, California. Tell us about Mr. Hurley. What was he like? I don't remember which teacher he was. I can remember a bunch of the different teachers names. I don't remember what Mr. Hurley taught. Do you think he was the inventor of the Hurley clothing line? Indeed. That's why he was working at a small high school. making as $20,000 a year. Go America. Yeah. All right. What we got here?

Go America. Y'all are awesome. Brody Miller, yes. I'll talk about that later. We do have a really cool series coming out in November about Yellowstone. It'll be on Fox. Question. Thank you, Dr. Terminator.

He's been here. Terraminator. That's our artist. He's been here. He's the artist, isn't he? For all the lives. Thanks for the 20 bucks. Y'all are awesome making any wildlife topic fun and attributing to science.

Question. When is the inevitable prehistoric creatures battle royale hybrids? Totally not an excuse to draw him. He wants to draw them. Oh, sick. Oh, we can do that today. Can we? Sure. We can do that today. It's going to be tough. I think we should do it today. All right. I don't know my dinosaurs as well as you guys, but well, that's a great call. It's going to be hard. Yeah. Because I don't have a computer in front of me. Keith Fernandez. Bros. Should I get another ferret? Yeah, 100%. You should get several more ferrets. Here's what you want to do, Keith. You're going to want to go ahead and buy yourself a trailer. Move in there. Forget any idea, any assemblance of dating. Yeah. And just get rid of your job. Get rid of your job. Cats and ferrets.

And peacocks. Yeah, and peacocks. Like 12 of each. They are a smelly animal. Yes, they are. Austin Long. This is a question for Peter. What happened to my painting of the broccoli?

It's in the office. It's in every one we do. That's right. But there's an NFT out there. And you can purchase it. The sole rights to it digitally for only one Bitcoin. One Bitcoin. So if Bitcoin goes down,

down to one dollar you buy you actually made an NFT out of your broccoli yeah did you actually I don't yeah he knows how to do this kind of shit if you could get a dinosaur as a pet it's growled off it scrolled off so what dinosaur would you have as a pet and it only grew to the size of a large dog oh that's a great one someone else before we do this someone else just said uh they better not call pleasiosaur a dinosaur again people are very upset at you guys for We're calling Pleasysaur dinosaurs. Why isn't it a dinosaur? Tell us in the chat.

Yeah, who do voodoo? Let us know. Yeah, somebody tell me why a pleasaur isn't a dinosaur. So my answer to this one is a Mosasaur. Fuck yeah. Tell us about it. A Mosasaur, like, I think it was the largest aquatic predator in history. Pretty cool.

Big giant, mean underwater reptile. Okay. So you'd have it in. Like crocs and turtles and things. I'd get a Labrador-sized Mosasaur in a big fish tank. You wouldn't put it in your pond? That's a pond. That's a bad animal.

It's a centerpiece. That's a centerpiece in the house. That's an objectively shitty answer. No, okay. Pat, you don't have a tank big enough to keep it. Not yet. Dude, what would be fucking cuter than a stegosaurus that was the size of a Labrador? Yeah, that's true.

That's pretty nice. I'm going to go with a stegosaurus Rex. It's a combination. Nope. All right, fine. I'll go just T. Because come on. The little arms just running around.

What are you going to do with a T. A miniature one, dude, with its little arms? First of all, it would be for security. Okay. By the way, a wolf is the size of a Labrador. Right? Are you going to get a wolf because it's a miniature wolf? No, listen, I'm adding to this question, it would be domesticated and only attack when I told it to. It's not what the comment said.

Teradactyl is a good answer. Marine reptiles are not dinosaurs. Daniel Kuhl wants you to take your shirt off so you can get chastised like you did on that one video. Not a question. Take your shirts off. Not doing that, Daniel. Daniel, calm down. I'm much too fat. Matt McHugh.

We were going to do, by the way, we were going to do. A hot tub. And I was like the plan. And then Peter was like, I'm too fat. We're not doing the hot tub lot. 100%. It's not acceptable at this time and moment in history. But maybe one day, one day.

If you guys can give me the motivation to get skinny again. I need to learn more about this. I didn't know marine reptiles were not dinosaurs. I will admit I know very little about dinosaurs, except I haven't learned anything new since I was eight. Right. Because I loved. But you did hang on to that knowledge. Logan Williams

This is a new record for Pat Not Using the bathroom I haven't gone pee Logan On a podcast in How do you pee on a podcast Like you just pee on the mic No diaper You know he does that

Diper A diaper it I made sure he went to the bathroom Before the live He does He does depends Oh there's a good question Daniel Gonzalez

Said when is the Baja Trip GFC video coming out We're going to share that on the Patreon before it goes live. Excellent. Next week. James Izard, Forrest got more seasoning on the bottom of his feet than the steak I had.

Did you rub that shit in lemon pepper? Yeah, nice. You want a little tasty? Brody asked for an alien update, alien conspiracy update, and I'll just say this. Disclosure is coming, my friend.

Look up Lou Elisando. It's coming soon. You get them off the charts. There's, Ray it back in. He asked, yes. He asked.

Listen, guys, if you're watching this live, if you make a donation, your question goes to the top. That's how it works because we are getting so many comments and so many questions. Sorry, guys. Sorry about our ADHD with all the chat coming. Maybe take the chat off. No, but this is what we said we were going to do. This is part of the live. Okay.

Think about what Tomcat Fitness is saying here. You believe that? I've tracked hundreds of Australian feral cats in my life. They're evolving into real monsters in the outback. Some of them outsized caricles and bobcats. Wow. capture one and show you all. Tom Cat, Fitness, LLC. You're right. This is, he's not wrong. I do believe it. It's been viral in the news lately. I'm sure Tom Cat and some of the other

Brosons have seen it. People are in Kyle, maybe you can pull this up. Feral Cats Australia, you know, giant size, whatever. People, these cats in the Outback have no predators and unlimited prey. They're getting fucking huge. Sure. Huge. That's crazy. And people are out hunting them, which by the way, it's one of these things everybody's like, don't hurt. hunt if you're into conservation. Please go and shoot these cats. They do so much damage. They are so hurtful to Australia. Please go and shoot these cats. If you live in Australia, kill these cats. Daniel Kuhl is really big into hunting for conservation and knows quite a bit about it. Fero cats pushing 40 pounds, Daniel Kool says. I mean, that is much, much larger than this.

So how does that happen? Is that like a goldfish going into a fucking aquarium and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger and bigger? Is it actually evolving? No, no, no. Well, it's, It's evolving is the wrong word. They are selecting to be bigger. What's happening is there are no predators. Yeah. And they are, there is unlimited food.

And if, and the food's big too, like wallabies and kangaroos and things like that. Sure. So the bigger you are as a cat, the more effective you can be as a predator. And so they're just, they're just getting bigger.

I got an idea. What if we started feeding kangaroos steroids so they get jacked like that one kangaroo? And then they could just take out all the cats. Well, they don't. They've got a better solution. Yeah. Okay.

The prime minister of Australia called me and said, how do we fix this cat thing? Yeah. It's going to cost you $3,500. A business class ticket. You're going to fly Matt McHugh in. Yeah. And he will kill all of those cats.

I like it. Yeah. And just some snacks and shit. Some snacks. Brad Owen's Super Chat. Have you guys seen Coyote Peterson's new Bigfoot find? Longtime Brosner tuning in from Newfoundland. I think we touched on this a little bit on one podcast.

I did, but we never did the follow-up. So it is a hoax, guys, and he says, because I dug into this, because I must have got a thousand people messaging me about this. He says in the beginning of the video, or maybe it's a separate video, I don't even remember anymore. He's like, this is what I would do if we actually stumbled on a big foot skull up in the Pacific Northwest. So that whole thing's like a scripted video. It's the, it's the biggest clickbait ever. Like, it's not just a headline. It's a whole story.

I mean, listen, I don't agree with that, man. I hate that shit. That's some bullshit. You can't, that's like, dude, that's ridiculous. I mean, you know, it all depends what your objective is, right? He probably got 10,000 new followers or subscribers or whatever out of it, or a million or whatever. And if that's your objective, fine.

But, you know, it doesn't really do anything. 10 million angry subscribers. Raoul, Pat, stop twitching your foot. Impossible. I've gotten yelled out on multiple planes. I sat next to Patrick going to New York. York City for six hours and his leg went like this for six hours the whole time. It's the best.

It is the best with a newborn though because it puts them to sleep. It does. It's fantastic. Kelly M. Going to Vernal, Utah, where we did Blind Frog Ranch. Yes, the Vernal Brewing Company that I take all my meals there. Their pizzas are lovely and they have a bunch of a beer that, you know, they make right there. That's fucking delicious.

Definitely go to Vernal Brewing Company. There you go. For this next one, would you rather face it? an enraged moose or an engaged musk-ocks the musk-ox is not going on their honeymoon it's enraged listen I'm taking the musk-ox because fuck you Pat all right would you rather face an enraged moose or enraged musk ox in their natural habitat musk-ox because it's more open yeah the the habitat's more open the musk-ops is a little bit more cumbersome moose are very fast they're very agile yeah

they're just they're just more aggressive I just, I don't want to deal with a pissed off moose. Dude, Alex, can you poke the dog? You're just fucked either way. Yeah. You're going muscox? Yeah.

I am too. Moose, when you see a full grown moose in the wild, it is so intimidating. Oh, dude, look at this muscox. So it's huge. It's a beast. But there's not, there's something about the,

the anatomy and stature of that that I find I could take on more than a moose. Pull up a moose. Kyle. Like, you can't even reach the moose's head. I saw, I saw a video of a moose that just rammed a car the other day. That's what I'm saying. Like that's, yeah, that's a no-brainer for me. I'm going muscocks all day. I'm not saying I'm winning either way, but. Wait, you're going muscocks or moose? I would rather take on a musk-gotts than a moose. Yeah, yeah. Yep. Went as far as going back on Joe Rowan. I ask him every week. I literally text him every week.

Every week. And actually, Joe asked me to come in July, but as I told him, I'm like, the only thing I've done you know, that I can really update you on as this Shark Week show, this podcast that you do. And let's wait until I have a better story to tell you. So, well, there's a huge story. This wild time. By the way, you started a podcast. But the second question is, because I think we've got to get to these questions are coming in hot and heavy here. It's a lot. Do you think the Carolina panther could still be alive?

Well, I think Carolina Panther meaning Eastern Mountain Lion, right? Yes. That's what? I think it's the same. Sorry? Very hot topic. What? The Eastern Mountain Lion.

It is. It always is. This one's tricky. We've talked about this before on the podcast. Mountain Lions were eradicated from, Eastern Mountain Lions were eradicated, and then they brought mountain lines back from here, from California, put them in Florida,

that sort of spread out, and then, you know, some people see mountain lions in states that say they don't have them, but they're very transient animals. They travel a lot. They're not, you know, they're very capable of covering huge distances. Long story short,

I suspect that the Eastern Mountain Line was not ever wiped out fully. But at this point in time, with Western mountain lions being reintroduced into the east, they've all been cross-bred. You know, the genetics are a mess. It's just a big muddy puddle of different cougars on the eastern coasts on the eastern seaboard.

Like older ladies who like to have sex with younger boys? Yes, exactly. Just to make each other. I agree with you, Raoul. I should go on Rogan. He didn't invite me. It's weird. I think it'd be very entertaining.

Oak Dagger. Forest, any updates from me? Didick from the Javan Tiger Extincter Live episode. So, yes, I don't know, I don't remember if this was in the show or not. Didick gave me some fur. Was that in the show? I don't think so. I don't think it was.

He gave me some fur that he collected. And sadly, the genetic analysis of that was inconclusive. It came back as a false, basically. And I talked to Didick about once a year, and he's still on his quest. He still doesn't have anything definitive. He still gets reports like once every few months of a tiger. Yeah, that's it. We think the tiger's there somewhere.

I do. Yeah, I do. Strongly. Yeah. John Machetti, wife is pregnant with twins. How screwed are we? Pat, I'll let you go first because you had a kid first before me. It's fucking insane.

I mean, I don't know. I have a friend who has twins. She's like my hero because I'm like, I don't. I do not know how you could double the workload. The good news is two years from now, you'll be like, cool, we got it over with. It's done. You're over the hump. We don't have to do it again, whereas all of us are just going to have to be fucked all over again. And you got a 50-50 chance that one of them will take care of you when to get older.

I'll tell you what Pat told me, though, when I was having a kid to kind of prepare me for how it is. When you're in the hospital, you have no idea what's going on. You've got to stay there for two days. The kid is going to take its first shit, his or her first shit. And it will be a black tar ball. of something you've never encountered on earth or anywhere in life and you don't know what it is and you will think that your kid has some sort of disease that has not yet been discovered and that will be what it's like I've only got one he's a month and a half old every time something he does something different it's like I should we call the doctor I don't know what to do so you're basically in a full-blown panic for well at least six weeks probably more Shahir says, can you guys please make episodes more available

in Australia other than that huge fan? Is he talking about... EOA, probably. Extincter a lot. We have no control. I get that all the time, by the way. If anybody's listening to this, that's like, Forrest, I can't find your show in Sweden.

It's like, sorry? Let's just put them all on the Patreon. There's nothing I could do about that. I wish we could. Yeah, I have no control over where animal planet puts when, unfortunately. But we are contemplating, perhaps, doing like, scaled down version in the US of an extinct or alive

I'm not letting this go is he if insects were as large as horses or camels and there were no cars what insect would you use as your means of transportation I'm gonna go first yeah please I'm gonna go with the California cement mite oh that's right about on the last podcast is that it was cement might it only gave a specific the yeah species name it can travel 322 body lengths a second yeah Okay. So if it was the size of a horse, I would just be like, hey, do you want to go to Malibu? Yeah, I'll see you there in two minutes.

I'm going to one up you. I'm going with a circus flea. Your comment, circus flea. Why does that one up? Because it can jump real high. No, because it jumps like 150 times its body lane. He wasn't listening to that podcast at all. I don't know what he's talking about.

Cool. So you'll fall off it immediately and splat on the ground. With a saddle, dude? Are you kidding me? With a saddle? You don't know what a set. I, uh, I'm going to go just a nice daddy long long. legs. I just want to scale up and over things. Oh, that'd be fucking cool. Just up and over. Big, long

legs, nice little saddle on top. It's like in movies where you see them riding elephants back in the day. Yeah, like kings ride elephants and shit. Except my elephant can go straight up walls. That's true. That is true. It's pretty dull. Yeah. This is a question I've actually had. Forrest, what do you, what's your advice for someone who wants to get into spear fishing that lives in the UK? Ooh, I love that. Pick a new sport. Um, no, no, no. Uh, no. Uh, uh, uh, There's a guy named Daniel Mann. Look him up. M-A-N-N, Daniel Mann.

He's one of the biggest, like, YouTube spearfishing guys, and he lives in the U.K. And every weekend, he travels north or south. He goes to Scotland, or he goes down to the south, and goes spearfishing. He doesn't shoot a lot of big fish, because I don't think there are a lot. But he gets some nice stuff. He gets crabs and scallops and small little British fish, whatever they are. I don't know. British fish.

If you know what a British fish is. But would you practice with like, because the spear is a little wonky to use with the rubber band and it takes a lot of arm strength. You practice in a pool or something like that? Everybody that ever goes spearfishing should start by getting a pole spear, a Hawaiian sling, which is like the spear with the band that you hold up high and go shoot like a target in a swimming pool if you can or a pond or something. Just so that you don't go out there and start maiming fish left and right. Right. But before you do that, try and say British fish five times fast. British, British, fish, British, that's hard.

British fish, British fish, British. This is a good one. This is really good. Ooh. Monkey Matt. I mean, look, his name's Monkey Matt. Yeah. So he wants us to say Chimpy Matt.

He does. He does. But he's not eight, Matt. What do you think we're going to fight between a wolf or a fucking whiling out chimpanzee? I'm going chimp, man. I saw that video of that chimp who ripped that chick's face off in that back in the day. I know what you're talking about. And that was a vicious.

I'm definitely going chimp. That might sound crazy and I'm probably wrong, but I'm going wolf. Really? Really? Way in the comments. Without having like vertical structures for the chimp to get up and have more sort of leverage and maneuverability up and over the wolf. You're putting them in a flat field. I'm going wolf.

Oh, well, mine will be fighting in a jungle gym setting. A McDonald's play place. Brodiet. Can we do a Brosner special expedition hike? It'll be hell of fun. I'd love to. I mean, look, I'd love to do more shit like that. Yeah.

Brody. It would be really fun. But it's impossible to get Pat to actually follow through and commit. No, it's impossible to get like the funds and the time to do all these things. That's what people don't understand. It's like. Yeah. Life just melts away.

It does. Pay attention. But yes. I think we would like to do a Brosner meetup of some kind at some point. Absolutely. I don't know when or where, but. Well, we were talking about the other day, texted for us that just to, to kind of dip our toes in what that would be like,

Forrest, Pat, and I just going on a little camping trip and kind of filming all of our shenanigans. It's never letting this go. It's going to be mostly Retepe eating spaghettios out of a can. Listen, I pick the ravioli, mate. Quinn's Wildlife, if you all are doing a U.S. extinct or alive type thing, the seamink might be an interesting search. It might.

You know about the seamink? A little bit, not a lot. I mean, it's a mink. It's a small mustilid that was, you know, like old mink, semi-aquatic would live in and out of the ocean in the northeast and hasn't been seen in a long time. I'm not sure. I guess that's all I know.

Okay. Yeah. Bring up Eden Williams has a question there. Dude, we were talking about the other days. SLO for real was talking about, or somebody was talking about going on a mushroom excursion. He was saying, like, would you be willing to take people out on a mushroom excursion forest? Or is it too secret that, like, you don't want anybody to know your spots or, like, how does that work? Because I'd like to go.

It depends. It depends. I would never take, like, random people to the Chantrell flushes in Santa Barbara because there's so few and far between. And one person goes there and that spot's done for the season. What's your biggest tip for somebody who would want to go? go out solo and find those secret spots. How do you do it? You just got to put time in.

There's nothing. I mean, so first of all, you have to learn about the mushroom and their ecology and everything else. Like, when do they fruit and why and what conditions? And there's a great Facebook group called Mushroom Hunters of California, which is started by one of my good mushroom buddies. Nice. And there's a ton of information on there.

So you've got to learn about the mushroom. And then just like all my mushroom spots in Santa Barbara County, I mean, I've spent hundreds, if not thousands of hours just hiking. the woods looking for these patches. Once you find them, it's like, oh, that's really what it is. It's just about putting in the, sorry. No, we don't.

Yeah, we do. No, we don't. You didn't tell me about the super chat. What is a super chat? I don't even know what this is. What's a super chat? You just pay money and it highlights it. Oh, oh, cool.

This is a good question. What would be your tips for a budding conservationist that's going to uni? With your first tip be, don't go to uni? No, God, no. I think going to universities. Now, what's uni? Is that like a bicycle?

University. University, you do. Okay. Find something that you're passionate about because especially when you start going to university, like you're going to take, like, what's was that class, that chemistry class that I hated so much? Organic chemistry. O-chem.

You're going to take organic chemistry and it's going to suck. And you're going to be like, I want to quit being a biologist. But if you find a specialty, whether it's extinct animals, herps, mammals, birds, fish, whatever it is, and are like, this is my thing. I'm going to stick with it. You can get through all the crappy side of academia and all the crappy field work, knowing that one day you'll get to work with that thing you're super passionate about. Yeah.

I love that. That's kind of just how life is, right? Yeah. What is the most adaptable animal? Human. Hey, it's Max. What's up, buddy? Max's my good buddy.

What is the most adaptable animal? The human. I'd say human, but if we take out human. The flea. Really? The common? No, I'm sorry. The cacro.

No, no-brainer. It is the common rat. Okay. There are rats on every continent. They can get there by your ships, by your airplanes, by you name it. Rats have figured out how to do it. They can live in the middle of the woods. They can live in high rises. They can live underground. Yeah, you know what they can't do? They can't outrun my cat in the backyard. Ooh, take that. They go in numbers though, but they also can carry black plague without getting sick, which is a problem. Lemley will take care of it. Do we think the Caribbean monk seal still? Did a whole episode.

Real cool one. Cool shot of forest diving into the Sonata. And you know what's interesting is I still get, people send me these shots that they get on their phone and stuff. And they're like, here is a seal that I saw in the Florida Keys. And it's like a little bubble in the distance, you know, on a cell phone picture. So, man, Caribbean's a big place. I think it could be. I think it could be.

Okay. Yeah. There's that island off of Jamaica that's so remote. I can't think of the name of it now. Would you ever do a podcast or discuss hunting with Steve Ronell? Of course we would. Yeah, of course. I'm a fan of Steve's.

We're friends with Ben O'Brien. Yeah, yeah. No brain. He has his own podcast. Absolutely. The guy on the right looks like a meth head in the thumbnail. Is that our right or they're right? Yeah, who's right?

It's Patrick. What's meth-y about me? Is it, oh, in the movie the foot, maybe? No, no, no. In the thumbnail when we did the blobfish face. What? Oh, fucking. That's great.

Oh, no, it's from the studio. Dude, so here's a little story about that. He texted me, and he, he said, my face, how could you let me get that fat? And I was like, well, you know, that was ages ago. You're good now. Now you just look like a method. It's both of their faults.

Yeah. I also told him there was a thousand percent only him that noticed it. Yeah. I prefer to do sit up. Raoul, thank you. Hey, is it worth getting a degree in ecology? Well, I'm not qualified to speak on that. Forest, what do you think?

Yeah. I mean, if that's your passion, sure. It's more vague. You know, it's like a broader. Look at the sciences of animals and environment is if you go into the ecology route, which, you know, if you don't know what you want to specialize in, a generalized degree in biology or environmental science or ecology is great. Sure. Ice Freak and T just said an octopus slapped her camera out of position or out of her hand. And she was mad about it, but I think he'll bring it back with a few selfies on it.

And what was the camera lost? Do we know? It's got to be gone. Peter, who would you throw Pat or Forrest off of a cliff? Definitely Pat. Uh-huh. Yeah. He's angry.

My thought is that it would be a little easier to catch you. Oh, that's a good question from Austin Long. Did you see that? Has Peter ever learned a shotgun beer? Can we find that out? Do you have any canned beer in your fridge? Don't lie. I'm looking at one.

Oh, yeah. You are looking at one. All right. I'm going to get a beer. Wait, no, wait, wait, wait, wait. We'll stay tuned to the end. We'll do it at the end. And also,

No, it's going to be another disaster. All right. We're doing that. Would you rather fight a bear-sized Wolverine or fight a bear-sized honey badger? A bear-sized boehler. So take a honey-badger or Wolverine, go on them up to the size of Alaska. I'm going Wolverine, though, man. Those honey badgers, they would not, they're relentless.

They will not give up. You are fucked. You're dead. You're dead. Either way, probably. It's sort of like saying, would you rather fight a guy with an AK-47 or an AR-15? Right. Totally.

Yeah, you're like, there's no win in that. this. Yeah. Yeah, it's a lose, lose. I don't know that much about Wolverines, to be honest, but I, I've seen Honey Badgers do things that are hard to even explain. Yeah, agreed. I'm going, I'm going Wolverine. Yeah, I'm going Wolverine. Yep. Ooh, I like this one. Forest. Another one from Max. I love it. Who do you, Forest look up to the most in the realm of conservation? Honestly, it's got to be David Attenborough. He's just, he's such a legend. He's figured out how to communicate so much. I mean, I just, just watched his newest series prehistoric planet on an on apple have you seen it

Kyle so good and it's it's all dinosaurs by the way but it's like this fantastic it's I told you about it yes you did you did the dog's cuddling with me but it's got to be it's got to be David Annbury it's just a legend yeah that's a good does it annoy you how you get associated with the thylacine so much you're almost as famous now as the thylacine it doesn't annoy me I just which you know I that's how that's how people are they glob things together like that but it doesn't annoy me it would just be it would be great if I had the means by which to be pursuing that more sure what I mean because I feel like and I've said this many times given enough time and resources I could find a thylacine but I need millions of dollars to do what I want to do

on that note why haven't you been to Papa New Guinea to look for a thylacine is it money or fear of rebels uh it's definitely money yeah funding because you're not just going to take that trip to go be silly and put up 20 trail cameras. You got to send hundreds in advance, make all the contacts. The amount of, yeah, yeah. I mean, it needs that to do Papua New Guinea, the way that it needs to be done to prove the existence of thylcine would take months and months and millions of dollars, quite simply. Luke's got a good one. How long until cane toads take over the earth? Oh, they're coming. They're coming. Well, they'll never take over South America, Luke, or Central America, because they're native to that. And the predators there have not.

know how to deal with them and they're not very abundant but they've done a good job taking over australia so if they do take over the earth that's where you had down to yes down to central america yeah you move to costa rica get a coconut hang out on the beach any update on the zanzibar leopard no not really to be honest do you know if the two people that we met with have continued their work there i can't remember their names i'm blanking on their names as well uh no i don't really. I mean, if you remember, they were anthropologists who just sort of wanted to find a leopard, you know, because they heard all the legends. It was something that was really fun for them. Yeah, it wasn't like their main area of focus. But really, nothing happened. It was just sort of like

the news came out. Like we thought maybe there'd be more protections put in place. And to be honest, nothing happened. Nothing happened. And there's not much you can do about that. You know, it's up to those governments to make those decisions. Yeah. I will say Zanzibar is wonderful. I loved it. I want to make sure I get back there. did you love about it beautiful ocean coasts felt incredibly safe like just i would go jogging every morning yeah uh just run to the street awesome food yeah amazing architecture and uh what's stone town stone town yeah yeah highly recommend zanzibar if you if you get a chance i think people go there to do dive trips don't they a lot of diving there a lot of a lot of like it's like a good high end

european vacation spot yeah for a friend in the uk who wants to go spearfish yeah you go you go you fucking height Kilimanjaro, then you cruised Zanzibar to relax. Yeah. This is a great question from willful cobra. A hundred elephant's size. Would you rather fight one retep that's the size of an elephant or a hundred retep's the size of a duck? I'm going to go one

elephant size retept because Really? Yes. And I'll tell you why. Earlier today, you reached for your beer on the table and complained about the pain. That's because I got a static electricity shock in a wound on my finger. I'm just saying one of you at that size it's going to be cumbersome

crotchety. Crockety. Drunk. Yeah. Yeah, it could barely stand. A drunk elephant is the way I picture. It would take me more cases of beer than Andre the giant needed. Isabel wants to know why I won't pet the dog sitting next to me. There's a very good reason for that. If you can be petting

Charlie for 30 seconds and he's loving you and wonderful, change nothing. about what you're doing with your hand, and he tries to bite you. That's a lie. And I've learned that lesson over the course of 10 years. I know.

He's scary. He just, he's got, he's fickle. He's fickle. It's not his fault. It's the assholes that raised him. All right, guys, let's, let's slow down on the question. I know, I know, I know.

He's a rescue and Charlie can be a jerk. Let's slow down on the questions real quick and just talk about our days for a second. This is, this is overload. So let's chill, take it slower for a minute. Forrest. Is that the point of this? I don't think so. No, no, it's not an AMA.

We can chill. We don't have to pull them up so fast. It's crazy. We take our time like a normal bond. I'm really enjoying the rapid fire. It's really fun. That's because you're an idiot. I'll talk about my day.

I woke up. I had a nice breakfast of eggs and potatoes, and I came here. That's great. This is what I've done so far today. How was it in Santa Barbara today? Not 94 like it is here. It's a beautiful place out there. Well, what have you been up to out there?

This is not the whole. Is there a possibility? Thanks. That was nice. That was a good reset. Is there a possibility of lion in the Middle East still? Barbary Lion? I would say no. What do you think we're top? And no idea. No. Just no. I'm getting a lot of shit for not petting the dog here. I think do it. Pet Charlie. He's perked up already. There you go. One stroke. He didn't do anything, though. Oh, the ears are back. Okay. Hey, Forest, I'm finally going to Australia for the first time in November. Do you know of any great herping spots in the Cairns area? Yes, Cairns itself is a great herping area.

If you drive on the road north of Cairns, there's one highway in and out of Cairns, you drive on the road north of Cairns. I don't remember it towards the waterfall. There's like a waterfall that everybody goes to on a day trip for Cairns. That road right after sunset is awesome. I found brown snakes there. We saw a coastal Taipan across the road there. There's tons of carpet pythons there.

It's great. I went bungee jumping in cans and ruptured my eardrum. Oh, I didn't know that. I know you lived in Australia. I didn't know you went bungee jumping and erupting eargram. One and only time I went bungee jumping. I did it exactly how they told me not to do. Yep.

Why? What do you mean? I can't dive into a pool. I've never done it. I've never gotten my head under my feet. Really? Ever once. Interesting.

I've never heard of someone not being able to do that. And they said, just make sure your heads below your feet because it was tied to my feet. Right. Oh, right. And I just did a pencil, which snaps you at the bottom. And so I plunged into the river faster than I should have. Yeah.

And ruptured my ear drum. That's like full-blown whiplash insanity. Yeah, I missed the, we were scuba diving the next day and I missed it because I couldn't even fucking stand up. It throws your balance off so much. Oh, no. It was fruit group? Was it one of the scariest things you've ever done was spongy jump because I won't do it? I didn't enjoy it, man.

And it's not like, oh, I conquered my fear of heights. It's just like, I cross that off the list. You're like, I've done it. Yeah, right. No, Z-Man. I don't know what that is. Is that a lizard of some sort? I think it's a dinosaur.

Is it a cow? Does Forest think, that's a good question. Haza, can you do that question? Does Forrest think a big animal still lives, I lost it. Undetected on the planet in its most remote areas, similar to how the Sowla did. in the 90s? Yes, I do. Short answer. Haza. Where?

I think there are regions in Papua New Guinea that have canines, that have other large animals, tree kangaroos, things like that. I think Central Africa around the Congo Basin, there could be undescribed large mammals. And I think, without a doubt, there are unknown large terrestrial animals living in the Amazon that we don't know about yet. Would you go there? Like that? Try to find them? Of course.

What do you think you would find? Well, I've often thought that there's a... So, Megatherium, which is a giant ground sloth, was around until 4,000 years ago that we know of on certain islands and in certain locations. Big sloth that stands upright and walks, like the size of a bear. And I've often thought I talked about this on Rogan that that Megatherium could still exist in a certain area in Peru

where they talk about it a lot. Interesting. Yeah, but nobody's really gone. So DiNasty DiCast has been tenacious. so we'll do this question here. Would you rather search for the thylacine with Neil Waters or the boy who cried wolf? I'm just doing it because...

No, I don't care. I think Neil Waters. He at least has some good ideas, I would imagine. He spent his entire life dedicated to faking findings. So, you know, I think that he at least... It's weird that Coyote Peterson took a page out of Neil Waters' book with the Bigfoot thing. Is it?

They both got... Millions and millions of views. No, no, no, no. No. Neil Waters has 10,000 views max total. Coyote Peterson has a lot of pool. Does you say it has his own pool? A lot of pool. Oh, it has his own pool.

You got so many views he bought a swimming pool. Yeah. It's funny how when you're a kid, though, you think that that's the moment that you will have made it in life. When you get a swimming pool? Yeah. And then you get to pool and you go, I'm still depressed. Well, you also get the pool and you're like, Well, now I'm paying a couple thousand dollars a year for nothing.

I use it like five times a year. Oh, dude, we use ours a lot. Well, you're lucky. It's right there. Yeah. I can see yours. What do you mean it's right there? It's a whole thing.

His isn't closer. Going out the back door. He just fucking ripped a hot piece of farting. That's good stuff. I love it. I love it. Cookie. Yeah.

I mean, whenever Cookie wants to come on, he come on. What do you mean he upped his game? I haven't watched it a while. Yeah, Daniel, what are you talking about? He's out like doing expeditions and stuff. Oh, good for him. Oh, that's great. He said he wanted to do that.

That's the thing about kind of like doing this podcast. It's like we do it and we have to like sit in an office and look at each other kind of on a call. So it's nice to get together and do it A. And then B, though, I suggest we go on a overnight camping trip and do shenanigans. Let it go, Peter. All right, this is a fun one from AP. Peter, top three DFL places to travel with Pat and Forest. You got to rapid fire these.

Sure. I would be there all day. Number one, I'd like to go to Marios in West Hollywood. Delicious Italian. Really good pizza. Number two. Did we go after this? Number two, I'd like to go, I'd like to go maybe, well, especially with forest.

I'd just like to go to some nice wooded area. Let's say like Yosemite up north where we can. I would love to take you to the Redwoods to much. I would love it. You would go nuts. I legit would, it would be, I would be good after that trip for like, six. Six months. You know how like when people, you know, go out and experience shit outdoors, take mushrooms.

You're like not depressed for. It is a proven psychological thing that if you spend time in the wilderness, you are happier. Number three, I'd like to go to Pat's mom's house with both Forrest and Pat. And then dead fucking last, I mean, it's here. Like, or just like being around them in a general, like kind of having to hang out and just, you know, do normal stuff. It's just not fun. It's not fun. I see it.

What do you got? Good question, actually. They go so quickly. Most tense moments. Oh, I love that. On Extincter Alive. For me, it was when Forrest threw a cobra in my face. The story has changed.

Yeah. It was when Forrest Mitt used my shirt to wrangle a fucking cobra. I gave it back. Yep. I had to go shirtless for the rest of a very long 14, 15 hour day sitting on a bank looking through binocular shirts. I was like, If Patrick, give me your shirt, you pulls it off and adds it to me. It's covered in cobra bed.

I'm like, here you go. Like, what am I supposed to do with this? I'm like, just don't let it get in your eyes, your nose, your mouth. Any cuts on your body. You'll be fine. What was your most sense? Go ahead. No.

The rhino with Mitch. I thought we were going to lose Mitch. Yes. Yeah. But he handled it well. Brilliant. He handled it perfectly. Brilliant.

Perfectly. But if he had done anything different, it would have changed. What's a dangerous animal that I've, would find here in in Seamy Valley because I want your advice on how I would be how I should behave to like not get a wild Karen yeah I like wall at what at the Walmart like a Walmart Karen like a no not even more like a what's that fancy store where they buy furniture dollar store no like the nice furniture living spaces yeah so so how do I scale Karen sounds very scary well to the second part how do I how do I get away without being a

to act you buy her cocktails and tell her that everything she says is right, you validate her in every sense. Then the Karen turns into a cougar. Then you win. Then you win. It's true. Alex wants to know who's going to win the AFC championship. The L.A. Chargers.

That's my pick. Interesting. You just bought season tickets. I just got season tickets. That's why. He wants them to. But I think they're part of buying the season tickets. You have to buy the seat license and it's a whole investment thing. And I think the charges are on the up swing. There you go. Excellent.

That's absolutely. Absolutely. Oh, my God. Peter, have you ever had Harold's chicken or Giordano? Yeah, I've had Gerardanos. It's my favorite deep dish Chicago pizza out of all of them. It's unbelievable. Yeah.

Made me feel sick. Well, I mean, if you're not. You can't eat too much. Yeah. I had like three slices. Oh, that's too much, boy. It's just cheese. It's just, no, it's like a lasagna.

It's a pizza lasagna. Yeah, it was. But Jordano's also does the beef sandwiches. Yeah, they do everything. And they do everything. It's unbelievably good. Pat, when I was with you in Chicago, we went to a Bears game. And we met up.

It was, it was real fun. We got blackout drunk. But you went back to the hotel with your girlfriend at the time. And you had ordered a deep dish pizza with her. And, well, first of all, was it Jorodonos?

No, it wasn't Giordano's. It was the place that was right next to the hotel. But here's the problem. We'd been drinking since 10 a.m. Yeah. By 5 p.m. I was like,

I haven't eaten all day. Right. So then you got to wait for fucking 40 minutes for the deep dish. Get your deep dish. Yeah. brought it back to the hotel room, immediately fell asleep, then woke up at like 10 o'clock and Peter was still out with his buddy. So then we went to meet them.

By the time we got home at three, I was like, we can't eat that. Yeah, it's just cold, coagulated cheese. That's a fantastic story, though. I mean, I've done it a million times. I have, my favorite, though, is when you are hammered and then you put a frozen pizza into the oven. And then you just wake up to a flat black disc. Hold on. This is a good question.

By the way, guys, don't forget super chat. That's how your question gets to the top of the list. Hey, question for forest. I was raised out in the Sierra Madres in Halisco, Mexico. We have a trail cam with a picture of what looks to be a grizzly bear. Could it be true? Would a grizzly bear survive? This is very exciting.

This is how we get a lot of our leads for Extincter Alive and the work that I used to do or still do occasionally. Please, what is it, Pesito? CETO? Send us that picture, and I'll tell you. Could it be true? Yeah, it could be the Mexican grizzly bear. which is an episode I always wanted to do

because I always thought there was validation to that. So send us a picture to one of our social media accounts. We'll make sure that it gets to me and I'll let you know. Love that. Somebody named David Dufour is asking us to do Little Joys. We did Little Joys with Bradley Trevor Greve. He recommended an herb garden. Sure.

So, yeah, what's a new round of Little Joys? Well, I'll say this. And I know I talk about it too much, but having a newborn, they are just, they are, trash for a few weeks. It's like, it's like, you're, so wonderful.

You're essentially, it's just a bunch of stress and, and, and, and, and a lot of, uh, doing tasks and thinking a lot and being stressed out. But I will say this. At about a month or so, the first time that that little motherfucker smiles at you, you're like, I'm in. I'm all in on you. Like a real smile. So David finds my partner.

have a baby. Yeah. It's going to take you 10 months. Smile at you. And then have them smile. That's very nice though, Peter. I've got one. Yeah, please.

This is going to cost you a little bit of money. And I apologize to anyone who doesn't have, you know, if you live in an apartment. This is really only for people that live in a house. So you need a house and money. Okay. You need to live in a freestanding house. Okay. And it's going to cost you about 300 bucks.

Okay. Go to Walmart. This is what I did. Yep. Bought a cheap L. LG TV, like a 50 inch It was like under 300 bucks. Yeah.

Put that shit in your garage. Oh, interesting. And just, you know, once every couple nights, if you're the kind of person who likes to have a beer or a cocktail or something like that, go out away from all the noise in the house. Yep. Open the garage door. And just watch TV in the garage while you have a beer for a left.

You have a couch in there? No, I sit on a jumping cube. Great. You know those boxes that you used to jump onto? I've got a jump. Oh, yeah. My gym's in the garage. So I just sit on that, watch TV, or pace around.

There you go. It's wonderful. Yeah, you're a pacer, that's for sure. How about you? Little joy? Little joy. Big joy, little joy. Here's a big joy.

We installed air conditioning last week at my house. What? Big joy. Just now? Nobody in Santa Barbara is air conditioning, bro. It's like not a thing up there. You're ahead of the curve. I'll tell you what.

You're safe. It's a reason for us to all move to Florida. Because when you come out of that, humid, hot, Florida, summer day and you walk into an air-conditioned hotel room. That's how it was in Chicago. I mean, that's what I grew up with, man. You walk in and go, oh, every time.

It's the best thing in the world. It's relief. You feel that, and then you go, I might just lay on the bed for 15 minutes. Yeah, right. Might take off my pants first. Yeah. All right, we got one pulled up by Kyle here from Paul Legg. Oh, Lads, Forest, How's it, Brew?

Should I do it in South African accent? Oh, lads, how's it forest? I don't know. Oh, lad's forest. How's it? Bull from Cape Town here. Quick one. Do you believe there are giants or were giants in our not so distant past?

No, I don't really believe in giants, I would say. When you say giant, though, like, are you talking? I believe humans. Human giants. Human giants. Right. I had to think about it for a second. I think, like, when you read those stories of like David and Goliath, it was like,

like Andre the giant. You know, there was probably somebody with some kind of like growth disorder or hormone imbalance that got to at those days probably six three. Sure. Everybody else was five one and they were like, oh my God, this guy's a giant. Right. You know, and it becomes like biblically disproportionate over time. And then you're thinking that of this giant. But no, I don't I don't believe that there was a race of hominidic. You know, you know, I heard a a ridiculous theory on Joe Rogan many moons ago before he was even that popular.

He had someone on who was talking about a theory where the great, like, I can't remember which rocks they are, like big, like in Utah. Oh, as Randall Carlson was on. Yeah. So he was saying that there were giants and that those are petrified tree stumps. That the rocks are pet. That's how big everything was and that humans, there was giants. What is that grounded in? Nothing.

Not reality. Well, that's the thing. But I like to believe it's true. see if it's a tree stump by testing it. Like it's not, you know what I mean? That's not saying you can be like, no, that used to be a tree stump, but now it's a rock. It's like, well, is it petrified wood? But that's kind of where we're at in life now.

You can kind of just say whatever you want, and then you can post it on the internet and a bunch of people follow you. That's true. But I'm just saying that's silly. It is silly. I like this one from Joey. What is everybody's favorite band, rapid fire, and best concert you've ever been to? I have one answer for both. I'm never going to change it.

This is the answer. Blink 122, period. It's the greatest band in history. It's the greatest concert ever. Is this the one where you threw the woman in the air? That's the one. What's up? Favorite band is impossible to answer,

but I'll say, just I'm going to go a one shot here. I'll go, because this is the best concert I've ever been to, Hollywood Bowl, I saw the Luminaires with Pat. Yeah. It was an amazing show. Real fun. Great band.

Favorite band is Black Angels. Best concert I've ever been to was St. Germain. It was unbelievable. Why? Smoking hash and drinking and it was just, it's like dance music. But it's like a DJ, but he's got a full band playing basically like trance music. Oh, it's amazing. It was on with horns and all sorts of shit.

I love, I love when any show does like something unique and kind of like separates themselves from the typical. Like if you, if you're just like a five piece band and you go up there on stage and you play good music, it's great. It's nice to be there. It's good music. But when you do something like have a fucking orchestra with you, like emphasizing your vocals or something like that, it's truly an experience. Tom Shelley, Super Chat, how's your bear problem for us? So here's what I'll say, Tom. I've conducted a bear experiment.

A bear experiment. A bear experiment. Okay. Check in with me. Actually, I'll bring it up on the next podcast. Okay? I'll bring it up on the next podcast, Tom. So I don't want to, right now, the problem.

seems to be temporarily mitigated. Stand by for a final answer. This is an amazing question. If humans became extinct, what animal will be next in line to become the most intelligent on Earth? Do we need to hear Peter's response, or do we already know it? Well, let's take out all primates, number one. And the problem with octopus is that they live so short.

So if octopus lived for a couple decades, they'd already have taken over the earth. Okay. Octopi. Patrick, your answer? I mean, it has to be, has to be octopus. Okay, I think it's unanimous. If we're taking primates out of the equation, it's octopus.

Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if they're going to take over, but they'll definitely be the smartest, man. So I saw a video the other day where octopus, uh, oh, thank you, smoke. I actually have a very average size package, but I bought, I bought, I bought those pants, baby. Not in those pants. Those are paint on. Wait, is he talking about this?

I think he's talking about the beer bottle between your legs. I was going to say. But I saw an octopus walk on land recently. I saw a shark walk on land recently. Oh, yeah. Tell us about that. Just kidding. No.

You did, though. No, I did. It was our show. It was our show. But no, it's just a stupid joke. Continue. No, it's it. I just saw it walk on land and I was like, here we go.

Oh, yeah. They do that. Here we go. This is how it starts. Check back in in a couple million years. Haza wants to know about this bowl that you talked about in high Peru, where you thought maybe a giant sloth could still be. wants to have a lot of people been there?

No, basically nobody's been there. Go check out, I think it was the first Joe Rogan show I ever did. I really go into depth on it on where it is and why and everything else. I mean, I'd rather just do that than talk about it because I think most people on this have probably heard that episode. What's your guess of how many humans have set foot in this area? Under 100, ever. Including like indigenous tribes? Wow.

I mean, it is, when I say impenetrable when you look at the geology of it, if a hundred, would probably be a stretch because you'd have to go straight up. And I've been to Peru and seen these Andean mountain faces. Like it's not climable. It's not like, oh, yeah, cool. If I go this way and then around, I'll get around it. It's like, oh, no, there's no way. Yeah.

When I was on an Murulty Island, again, with BTG, I hate to keep bringing it up. But one of our guides was a local part of the indigenous tribe there. I can't remember the Klinget. Okay. And so they've lived on this island for 10. thousand years yeah he was very knowledgeable about the history and all that stuff so there's this one area that BTG wanted to go and I was like it's completely overgrown impassable right so it's like right right it's like the US like down

the road you know he's like no one ever goes there obviously there's no reason to I was like do you know if that was like an area that people used to go to hunt and he was like why would they go there right it's the hardest place to get to why would anyone have ever there's no reason to have ever gone there yeah and that's sort of what this region in Peru is like it's It's like there's no reason for the native people to have gone there. It's too dangerous. They're most likely going to die.

You know, and it's a big region. We're not talking about a little like pocket. Like, you know, it's huge. I mean, it's just not somewhere that people would go. Yep. Somebody asked, I just like the question. Is there a go-to snack that you bring on expeditions? Ooh.

I found a new one that I, you just tried it in the kitchen. It's like my new thing. I can't live without it. Jerky? Yeah, these carnivore crisps. It's this like, it's just... It's a potato chip of beef. It's a potato chip of meat.

It's just dried meat with salt. There's not a single preservative. There's not anything on it. And I'm like, I've come up, I've come to the conclusion that I hate vegetables. They don't agree with me. And this isn't like, oh, I was a kid who hated vegetables. No, I've eaten everything my whole life. Now I'm just like I'm done with vegetables.

Yeah. Done with vegetables. One visit to liver. I'm fruit and meat guy nowadays. Well, what's the big, there's a big thing that's brought on every episode of Extincter Alive. Oh, jolly ranchers. Yeah, a giant bag of jolly ranchers. We can't live without jolly.

So what's up with that? Is that like when people dip? Yes, it's exactly what I was just going to say. Okay. You just, it's something to do with your mouth when you're standing around waiting. It's like baseball players when they're fucking, it's like you're miserable, you're hot, you're sweaty. So all you're tasting is your sweat, salt. And you're like, oh.

Now, let me ask you a quick question. Remember when you were devastatingly sick on that one extinct or alive experience? That narrows it down to about half of them. No, the one where you, like, laying in the weeds. In Madagascar the second time, yeah. Had you eaten too many jelly ranchers? Oh, God, no, none of us were eating anything. It was anything you ate came back out both ends.

So, no, you weren't consuming anything. I just always love that story, dude. It's your lowest point. I'll tell you a disgusting part of that story. I was obviously shitting my pants for a couple days and shitting the bed and stuff. But I hadn't thrown up yet. Right. And when I finally was graced with the beautiful vomit,

the white fish that I'd eaten right before we went through Beobab Alley or whatever, was fucking intact. Ew. After a couple days. Like a whole fish came out. It was like a seagull. I'm glad I got to say that out loud. That is disgusting.

Kyle Cullen asked an interesting question. Which de-extinction would benefit the or netheros? environment the most. Thylacine. If they found a thylacine in Tasmania, because it's the Australian government, I think the whole thing would change. Let me ask you this. Reverse question, which extinction would benefit the whole world the most? Take out mosquitoes. Well, extinction of mosquitoes would be a huge collapse to the planet. Really? That'd be a disaster. So many things eat mosquitoes and mosquito larvae. I feed all my baby amphibians mosquito larva. It's dangerous. No, it's, don't get

me wrong but uh do put d bismar back up d bismar super chatted long live lemley there's no answer thanks d bismar lemley actually has a surgery next week so i'll tell her what kind of surgery what kind of surgery just getting a little lump removed from her mammary gland she's like sounds okay she's 65 right they have about time she's they're giving her a biopsy they think it might be cancerous yeah so we'll see she's 12 years i love that i love that mammals just get lumps as they get older it's really annoying. We all do. Yeah, exactly. All mammals. It's either cancerous or not. Stuff. Producer,

father-in-law squirrel update. He's still on it, man. Yeah. No. He's on he's on a warpath. I think this is a life-long quest. I don't think it's ending. It's giving him like a real purpose in retirement. Yeah. It's to reload. He's fucking, I'll tell you what, like a million years from now, they're going to be like, what's with this island

in South Carolina that has the squirrels won? Invasive squirrels. What's Everybody's least favorite animal. I love them all. But least favorite animals. Fucking mosquito.

Well, let's take out insects and you've got to go with an animal. That's a tough ones are so easy to hate. They are. Bed bugs, though, are terrible. You just said take out insects. No, I know. I was saying, though. I hate panda bears.

Why? Because they get like, they're like the symbol of WWF. They get all this like attention. They're not that sweet. To be honest. I mean, they look cool. But like, I hate panda bears. It's like every, if you think of the word conservation, you think of the little like panda symbol.

Yeah, totally. I'm going honey or a honey badger. How can you hate a honey bad? Wow. They're vicious. They are. I've got six of them just trying to get into my house every weekend. It's crazy.

I, D.K. said I hate my sister's hamster. Yeah. If you could see any one of the seven wonders of the world in their prime, which one would you like to see? don't know what they are. The seven wonders of the world? I have no idea. The natural wonders. It's like Grand Canyon, Victoria Falls.

Great Barrier Reef. Great Barrier Reef. By the way, the Great Barrier Reef in the news is like coming back from the brink of extinction. Did you hear about that? No, I have. Yeah. The corals having a really good resurgence. There was just some new.

Just this year, though. Oh, maybe. Well, I mean, it's recent news, but people are really excited about it. That's really good. Maybe the corals are adapting to the. the rising sea surface temperatures. That's great. Yeah.

Forrest, what's your home remedy for a situation where you're blowing your guts out both ends? Finger your asshole. I would have that one out loud. I mean,

you are the medic on the shoots. No, I am. Hey, Forrest, blowing it out both ends. What should I do? Home remedy, let's pretend like a pharmacy is not readily available.

Yeah, exactly. A couple things you can do. Eat some chalk. Interesting, really? Sidewalk chalk. What about chariote? Charcoal. Charkle's good.

Just like the briquettes you put in the grill. That one's hard to, no, not that. Those are soaked in gasoline. But some burnt wood, some charcoal is good. Ginger is a big ticket. I use ginger regularly for upset stomach. It works. Here's one that a lot of people don't know, Sprite.

Sprite or a seven-up. Really? My mom used to have me drink, like, ginger ale or Sprite. When I was sick, I would drink. Grumpy tummy. Yeah, I would drink Sprite. And I love it. It's refreshing.

All right. That's a cool question. Could COVID lockdowns have helped the Great Barrier Reef because less people were out yucking it up on boats? Sure. I mean, I doubt that's the reason. But I think that helped. Anytime you have less people in an environment, it helps it, you know? And especially like around the Great Barrier Reef, there's lots of golf courses up there and, you know, run off from those golf courses and things like that into the ocean.

People aren't playing. I did find it interesting that you were talking about how just maybe like they're adapting, right? Right? Because at the end of the day, it's the rising temperature of the ocean that's killing them off, right? Yeah, that's a big part of it. We didn't talk about this on my Shark Week show because, you know, it's a network and you have to be sensitive to everybody. But the walking sharks, the epaulet sharks, are so, because they walk out of the ocean and go into tide pools, they are so adapted to, like, low oxygen environments and high heat stress. that they are thriving during global warming. As the seas are getting warmer, they're expanding their ranges.

We found one in a whole new range, never before been known there. In fact, I need to remember to post that and talk about that. And they're doing fantastic. I mean, I'm not saying global warming is a good thing, but this is like this funny little silver lining

of this weird little species of shark that's like, oh, things are great. When people talk about global warming and like everything dying, it's like everything's not going to die. It's just going to be hostile for humans to live in.

And whatever can adapt is going to adapt, right? Yeah, but many, many things will disappear because of it. Absolutely. But, I mean, a lot of things are going to thrive even more, too. Well, once humans are gone, then other things will thrive. Oh, yeah. There's been, like, four or five people have asked questions about the Carolina parakeet. Quinn's going to go do a little expedition herself.

Yeah, good for you. You know, I don't think you're going to find it, to be quite honest. I don't want to be discouraging, but I think that where the Carolina parakeet is, existed is relatively developed and relatively well studied. I think, you know, it's a little bit like the Ivorybilled woodpecker situation, except the Ivoryville woodpecker would hang out in very, very remote, swampy areas, whereas the Carolina parakeet was pretty much where people are now. Okay.

So was it people that wiped them out as far as you know? Yeah, yes. Okay. Had to think about it. Yes, we do have a Discord. Absolutely. We do. It's in our it's in our the wild times podcast.com forward slash info that has all the links to everything. The discord is great. So many just awesome people I've met in there and talked to throughout the months, man. Honestly, just such a great community. Even, you know, it's a fantastic place to go and just talk animal. I like James's comment. Can you scroll down, Kyle? He just said, I lost it. James Isard. No, not that one.

There was like one or two below that. He goes, I wish someone would tell Retep. He clearly doesn't know. About what? I don't know. No, it's true. I thought it was a funny comment. I'd like to address this because it's true.

I wonder if Retep knows. Kind of mean you all aren't telling him. I have no idea what he's referencing. Here's my gift. I can just keep yammering and not make any sense. And on this podcast especially, I have faith that one of these two will bring it back. So that's why it works. You've gotten a lot of love in this chat, too.

There's been a lot of comments like love for a tap here for a tab. Everybody, everybody, they can relate to me. You're also, I got to tell you too, you're on your problem. What is that? Beer number four? I think more. Yeah. It's nice to see because you, you know, since the kid was born, you've really curtailed

the drinking. And I like that you're just letting her rip. It is more than four because there was six in that bucket. And I haven't grabbed one. And I know you haven't grabbed one. Yeah, I'm happy for others. I feel like you needed a day like today. Absolutely.

Just reset. Hey, wife, if you're watching, I appreciate you. And they're non-alcoholic. Smoke only. Smoke is your biggest fan, RETAP. Smoke, I love you. What else do we got? Angela Bradley, is RETAP part Spider-Monkey?

I think it says money. I'm a spider money. Oh, it does say money. I am the furthest thing from a spider monkey. They're agile, right? Ryan Maas, has anyone ever accidentally eaten an animal that was endangered or extinct where you found out later, like, not extinct, but it's something that you wouldn't have eaten if you knew. It happened to me once. Oh, yeah.

Really? Well, it's not that interesting, but I fucking was given a bowl of soup in Australia and Melbourne, Australia. And I didn't know that it was because we went to this dinner where it was like, they bring you the stuff. Yeah, yeah. It was shark fin soup, and I felt pretty bad. Well, shark fin soup is like a super controversial thing where, I mean, it's not rare, but like people are kind of hunting. Yeah, but you don't want to be eating it. I wonder if it's illegal there now.

Probably. Probably. I don't even think it's illegal here. Shark fin soup? I don't think it's illegal. It's definitely illegal in California. Is it? Think.

It's not illegal to go kill sharks. I can go offshore tomorrow and shoot a mango or real one in or whatever I like. I know serving whale meat's illegal. Yes, I know that's illegal. But it's also illegal to kill a whale in California. It's not illegal to kill a shark in California. It's illegal to kill a great white shark, but no other species. Really?

Really? You can go fishing for leopard sharks. You can go fish off anything. Forrest, I got a question for you, just of my own. I'll give you $10 for this. Okay. Can you put it in the little thingy? I will.

Okay. I owe you 10. But I was, I've been watching, I went down like a YouTube hole of these. It's basically about, underwater cave divers and all the stories of all the people who have gotten into some real fucking shenanigans under there. Do you do cave diving? Yeah, I'm tech certified in the cave diving. I've never done any like crazy exploratory cave diving, but I've done pretty good amount of it. I mean, I met a guy at Mitch's wedding, I met a guy who was a sonote explorer. He had mapped like hundreds of miles of

Sonotes in Mexico and he invited me to go for a day with him just and he's like I haven't been down this tube before I don't know if anybody has you want to come with and he's like we clip in and we go and I'm like yeah let's go so when you say you clip in there's a line he's setting the line as he goes okay and he's like clip into me so if the silt gets fucked up we've got the line to fall back out this is what I'm talking about I was going to say is it scary like yeah it sucks it's it's fucking scary like why do you do it it's it's beautiful and it's interesting and it's really scary when things start to turn because you go from like I'm in this beautiful cavern and everything's sparkling and crystally and I'm seeing things that likely no human has ever seen before like this

piece of rock no human has ever seen before yeah yeah and then one swipe of the fin and it's like you know and like can't see anything you're in zero foot visibility nightmarish dude I saw this so when I was watching the documentary I saw uh they went down into this cave and then their exit the way they came in It filled with sand. Yeah. And the one guy eeked through and then one guy just died in there. And I'm like like the whole line got buried to get them back. They couldn't see anything.

It's fucking terrifying. I couldn't imagine anything scary. I just got called out for being too stressed about answering the questions. Rock and Rune. Rock and Rune says please chance the more spicy content. I will watch tomorrow on the river having many beers. Thanks, rock and run. Well, I think you got to pop your shirt off.

You want to pop your shirt off. I'll show it. 50 bucks. dude, show a nip for 50 bucks. Come on, look at that. Yeah, that's spicy right there. That's nice. People are going to turn it off now.

Look at these breasts I've grown. Patrick's face wouldn't be a little shirt up. You know what it was? These breasts that I've grown, it's almost as if I've had that I'm augmented to look so large. Oh, man, 50 bucks will get you nudity on this show. That's for sure. Absolutely.

Imagine what 100 would do. Ooh, freshwater fish. That's a good question because I want to up my fish game. What's a good freshwater fish? The best freshwater fish to eat. Pacu. Do you know what that is? Nope.

Can you pull up a picture, Kyle? It looks like a piranha. It lives in the Amazon. Good luck spelling that. And it's got P-A-C-U. It's got these big horse teeth, big flat teeth for grinding fruit. Okay.

Unbelievable freshwater. I mean, salmon and trout are probably the best. Fuck that, man. I love fish. I think salmon is disgusting. Are you kidding me? I do not like salmon three meals a day. Kyle agrees.

Kyle agrees with me. He's not. Look at that. There's a Pacu right there. The guy where, oh, never mind. That's cool. It's got some weird teeth.

Where the guy's holding it right there. Amazing eating fish. Like, I would eat that every single day. It is so good. Look at those fucking teeth. Those are like human teeth. Are they weird? Are they the weirdest teeth?

Is it low that I love catfish? Is that like a low thing? I love catfish. That's real trashy of you though. I also like it, by the way. But only because every time you have catfish is deep fried. Exactly. No, dude.

Blackened. Oh, that's disgusting. A place near me that does the blackened catfish. I used to that was like I used to be really big into catfish fishing but it's like the kind of people that you hang out with fish and catfish and eat catfish it's a it's a lowbrow crowd but with fish though it's it's a lot about I feel like good fish has a nice texture see Craig Berry's comment there yeah he agrees salmon is shit I know it's okay I it's got a nice fish good in my opinion and nobody cares but it's it's got a nice texture and it's not fishy of course but like I'm I'm I don't really taste the difference in fish. Oh, dude, if I brought you a piece of seabass and a piece of tuna, and I should have, I didn't think of it. I would have gladly brought it.

My freezer is stuffed right now. If I brought you down a piece of yellow tail, piece of halibut, and a piece of tuna, there's no way you couldn't tell me. I saw that you, the textures are so different. Liver King, you gave him some tuna heads. I sent him a whole tuna plus three heads. Yeah? He loved, yeah, so his chef, you know, I'm like in.

communication with him quite a lot and he's like bro i saw your fishing yesterday on social media so cool it's like what are you doing with those heads i'm like putting them in the trash i love that he hit you up for the heads yeah so i sent him a whole tuna plus three heads and he ate them all up eyeballs everything somebody made a comment and uh somebody was asking for more spicy content and somebody made a comment on one of the posts and it was just all caps and it's it was like it was like, Forrest, you're like something blah, blah, blah about getting like tuna and like the fact that they're endangered or some shit. And I, in my head, I don't want to comment because I don't want to do cause.

It was like a negative comment. Yeah, negative comment about like, Forrest Galante is bad for tuna or some bullshit. And I'm just like, I'm just like, yeah, but he's like. It was a tuna that did it. He's spearfishing it. Like you're, it's not like you're out there casting nets. Right. And fucking doing this shit.

What do you have to say to these people? Well, I'm not, I mean, that's, whoever's writing that is obviously ill-informed, right? Like, if you think that going out and spearing a fish, granted, granted, if you're spearing a critically endangered fish, it's different. But if you think that going out and spearing a fish and eating it yourself is bad, it's just wrong. It's just not. It's just stupid. When you're mass fishing. Exactly.

Yeah. It's sustainable hunting. And it's like, you're out there doing what fucking the first iteration. Where was this comment that got you so upset? Dude, it was one of the thousands. on one of the shorts that had a million views. YouTube short. Oh, YouTube short.

I didn't send it to you. That's fine. When you put the stink bomb in someone's car, was her name Ida? Yeah, is that Ida? She's watching. She just said after Peter publicly shamed me with his terrible prank, she wanted to know what me and Forrest thinks she should do to up the ante on you. We have a truth.

Listen, she fucking, okay, I have a, again, and I hate to keep saying this. I have a young child freshly dealing with this bullshit She releases a stink bomb In my only sanctuary in the house Which is my office And she just fucking puts it in there You know you told us

Yeah no you got very upset I told you guys but nobody else knows why I'm gonna get you a couple bullet ants in a jar No Bullet ants aren't allowed and you do whatever you like to wait till the kids 25 and out of the house please Send for us to DM with your address he's gonna mail you some bullet ends for his underwood You do whatever you want

She also one time she put She put fuck she gave me a A drink and she at her At a party she was having she put Freeze dried crickets in it dude I like I like I like you She sounds fun to be around the podcast But I'm just saying like

It's not like I just put a stink bomb In her car she deserved it Yes I'd have break the truth Do break the truth Do it keep this going It's fun for us to discuss And I also I mean, the joy that Peter had waiting for you to open the door of your car.

I haven't seen him that joyful in years. It was fantastic. Forrest Galaxy Catwoman, great name. What do you think? Any animals that are very intriguing to you in Ireland? Huge one for me, but do you guys want to, do you have anything to comment on that? Do you think of anything? No?

I have no idea. Fish and chips. That's all I can say. Well, you're in my ballpark. Very high up there for me on my bucket list. Beer number five. is basking sharks and they congregate off the coast of Ireland

so that would be like 99% of my reason to go to Ireland How do you catch them just for the regular look? You don't catch them, you go diving with them They're like whale sharks, they're huge sharks Okay, yeah, yeah Can you have Charlie stop growling and shaking? A little nut stomp, thank you.

Forrest, do you ever thought about looking for a lost population of Jag, yes, in New Mexico or Arizona? I just saw a news on this. Hefe is back. Can you pull this up, Kyle? Hefe, the Jaguar. I'm going to butcher it and I'm going to do it live

and then people are going to get upset. Hefe was a famous jaguar from the borderlands of Arizona and he hadn't been seen since go to go to news Kyle, go to news. Hadn't been seen since It's a literal jaguar with spots? Yeah, yeah. El Hefei, famed Arizona. Here we go. El Hefei. Famed Arizona

Jaguar Fared dead spotted in Mexico. So I just thought this was so great. This L. He hasn't been seen since, I want to say, 2015. I'm sure it says it here somewhere. And everybody thought he was dead, and then he popped up. So it doesn't really directly answer your question, but Jaguar from Arizona that I would have loved to have seen, caught on trail cam, whatever. And then there's, there are jaguars that have spots that are endemic to the U.S.

Not endemic, but there are jaguars that cross over that look like that. From Mexico? From Mexico. That follow the sky islands all the way up into Arizona and possibly New Mexico and pop back down. Are jaguars endemic to Mexico? Or South America? They're native to all the way from Arizona down to pretty far south, South America. I learned something.

Close your eyes. Close your eyes, please. Okay. Because I want to just watch your face as I read this aloud to you. Okay. We need a single shot from Fort. Clinton, 1978. Okay.

And we're punched in on your single. Okay. Quote, cat fishermen are a lowbrow crowd question marks. This from the guy who went on TV in the wilderness for days with his balls hanging out, L. O. Love you guys, but love cat fishing too. We are a bit lowbrow.

See? Clinton's agreeing with me. By the way, I want to point out I was pretty into cat fishing, but it just, it's a vibe. That's a call right there. Dude, that That is a call. You're lowbrow, mate. I didn't say I wasn't.

What do we got here? Rock and Ruin again. Yep. 20 bucks, thank you, dude, you're gonna go broke. By the way,

appreciate everybody who's fucking throwing us some cash. It gets these guys to come around do this shit in person, set up the studio. Rock and Rue. Love you.

I happen to know for a fact is one of Warren Buffett's kids. Oh, so keep it coming. Yeah. Did we do Bizar Animal of the Week? Where's that? You guys want to do a bizarre animal

The Week? Absolutely. I got it. All right, here's what we're going to do. Forrest's going to get up. Actually, Forrest's legs look super fucking ripped, dude. No, they're tiny. That quad definition is looking fly.

No, who's looking at his quad? How did you even see that? Because it goes down into his knee. It's like two knees. Pencil calves. Bro. I should have worn a shored. This is ludicrous.

All right. So we're going to do a bizarre animal of the week. The first person to guess it live gets to then. ask any question they want and we have to answer it any question make it real good let's do it right now my notes this is bizarre animal of the week okay this animal is endangered due to overhunting okay overhunting dodo bird could be a lot of things it's all right we're going to narrow it in yeah let's let these guys

This animal spends its life in the water. And ready for this? It can lay over 100 eggs. Quick question. What's water? It's water with an H. Yeah. Let's see.

Are we getting any guesses yet? Okay. So, so far we know that it's an endangered animal from over hunting. It spends its life in the water and can lay over a hundred eggs. Bro, my hair is fucking tight. Are you kidding me? My hair line is. Really has gotten a ball.

The last time he washed that. You only wash every other? day, mate. All right, come on, bizarre animal a week. Here we go. This animal that lays over 100 eggs and lives in the water and is endangered buries itself in the sand

waiting to ambush prey. Okay, hang on. 100, 100 eggs every time in the sand, aquatic. Yeah. Yep. People are guessing.

Okay, we got chicken of the sea. Yeah, that's... Kyle, you know what it is, right? Okay. So you're looking to see if anybody gets it. No. No one's guessing. He's gotten it yet from Kyle.

Not even close, y'alls. This animal that's endangered that spends its life in the water, laying 100 eggs and burying in the sand, has specially evolved hands and feet to help it move through the water at extremely high speeds. It has hands and feet. And it's laying eggs. I'm terrified of this thing already.

I didn't know humans could do that. And it breeds air. It's retap smoke. Is that it? Nope. I have many more. It's a upside down bracket smiley face. Okay, let us know when someone gets it, Kyle.

Yep, I'm watching. Keep going. It is found from Pakistan and all the way to India and Malaysia. Isn't Pakistan landlocked? Okay. Continue, maybe. Until someone gets it. Interesting.

It has a narrow head, which makes it better to hunt prey. How dare you, Tom? Kelly. You guys narrowing it down to anything? I'm not even guessing. I'm just looking at the guessing. I'm just waiting for them to answer. I'm just watching Kyle.

I'm going to narrow this down and then we're going to get some answers here. We'll see if anybody gets it. Galaxy Catwoman is very excited about her answer. Okay, here we go. This is one of the largest turtles in the world. It's a turtle. The elephant turtle? The Pakistani sand turtle.

I'm seeing some good guesses. So our bizarre animal of the week, which is endangered due to overhunting, it spends its life in the water, it breathes air and lays over 100 eggs, it buries itself in the sand, and has specialty evolved hands and feet to help it move at high speeds through the water. Ranges from Pakistan to India and Malaysia. Wait, Pat, guess. Has a narrow head for hunting prey. It's a type of turtle. You have to guess. You got one?

I'm going to say it's the Asian side. I'm going to go to the Illinois snapping turtle. So close. The Pakistan turtle. This is the narrow-headed turtle. Okay. And I gave you that with this, has the narrowest head of any turtle. Exactly.

But look it up real quick. It's not a cantors. That's a good guess, though. It's Chitra Indica is the Latin. The narrow-headed turtle. Very, very cool turtle. When you said hands and feet, is that just the little flappers? Yeah, but soft-shell turtles really do have like hands and feet.

They're not like flippers. What's the word you taught me recently? That about the prehensile. Prehensile, okay. They do not have a prehensile tail. Okay, so they can't grasp things. They're not very tall. Turtles are not good at climbing trees.

Prehensile, learned something. All right. That's bizarre animal. A little head turtle, Quinn's wildlife. Well, look at that beautiful thing. I've always wanted to see one of these in the wild. It's so bizarre. Yeah, so, I mean, it's, what is bizarre about it as a layman?

Well, just look at it, dude. Look at its face. Oh, my God. Look at that. I mean, I don't know how to tell you that. That looks like a might. It's a micro penis of turtle faces. Good stuff, man.

Good stuff. Love it. I like turtle. Wayne Gretzky. All right. What else we got? Forest, I know a great place in the West Coast where you can find the greatest hokey-pokey ice cream. Okay.

Well, that's a nice comment, the ammerger, but you need to tell me where it is. Yeah, you got to tell it while he was waiting for you to read it. You know that there's a type of ice cream called Tiger Tail. that is orange sherbet or sherbert laced with black licorish is that good that's a real thing and it's disgusting and it's and I'm guessing it sounds right like the way they do like bubblegum ice cream and stuff yeah Daniel cool just said that that is the retap of turtles I do not appreciate that

We just talk about that. I'm going to go get it. I'm going to go get it. Forrest going to go get it. Somebody asked, just shake your head yes or no, Forrest. Have we ever tried to get Jeremy Wade on the podcast? No. No.

I don't know him. I don't know him. I don't know him. I don't know him. Do you know him? No. Is he Dwayne Wade related to Dwayne Wade? He's the River Monsters guy. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Very handsome, charming. I think he's British. Yeah, I've heard of River Monsters. Yeah. All right, what have we got here? Forrest is getting the beer that Retep's going to shot. This is going to be a nightmare, Pat. You saw what happened last time. Can somebody help me with the instructions or do I just have to do it on my own?

What? The shotgun. Well, well, I feel like that sort of defeats the point of doing it. All right. We want to figure out if you've learned how to do. do it yet. Okay. So if I tell you how to do it, I think I know. I think I just went over it in my head and I think I know. Forrest, does Galaxy Catwoman annoy you with her Instagram messages? It's in the closet, mate. It's warm. It's warm. Even worse. Oh, that's

Forrest, does Galaxy Catwoman annoy you with her Instagram messages? Ooh, John Davenport brings up a great point. Are we skipping back? Just a pantry. Are we skipping Battle Royale. He said, of course not, Galaxy Cat. We have to do a Battle Royale. Hey, Forrest, when are you going to Papua New Guinea? Hey, Pat, look at me.

We don't need to always answer the questions. We can just talk. Oh, yeah, no, I know. Well, you know, what's going on in life, man? What item are you stealing from our time? This is fun. We don't do this that often. These guys have great ideas.

Me and Forrest do this every week. Where are you? Really? Have you been? Yep. I didn't know. Oh, we got a super chat. Another one from Rock and Rain, dude.

He's like, wow, thank you. I'm just going to laugh at Rock and Rain. Hey, Kyle, screenshot that. It's got to go on the Instagram. Blob fishing is when you struck out at the club and you just want to suck it. Oh, it's like a frown. No, I get it. I'm glad he paid $20 for that comment.

I told you. He's Warren Buffett's grandchild. All right. Guys, thank you so much for joining our hundredth century. Well, wait, we got to do a battle royale. We said we were going to do that one. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Do we have?

Oh, the dinosaur one. Yes. All right. Thank you, guys. We're going to do the BR. The Battle Royale. Battle Royale. Battle Royale.

Is there a jingle cow? Do, do, do, do, do it. Not a live. All right. So the Battle Royale, if I'm not mistaken, is this. You are going to pick three components of dinosaurs that you know. And we're going to fight them until the death. Okay.

Pre-no. Just pre-reel. historic creatures. Prehistoric creatures. Doesn't have to be dinosaurs. Yeah. And we also don't get mad if we say something's a dinosaur that's not. I'm using marine reptiles, whoever said.

Yeah, this will literally be impossible for me without Google, but I'll try. You'll be fine. Snake draft and Patrick goes first. Okay. I'm going to start with the body because everything scales up to the body size. Right. Obviously, I have an opportunity to go for size here. You do?

So I'm going to go, it's got to be prehistoric. I don't know if Blue Whales lived back then. I think they did. That feels like a cheap, cheap out. All right, I'm taking... Collar, you're going to be able to pull up pictures of each critter as we go here? Thank you. I'm going to pick the body classic of a brochiosaurus.

I want that fixed out big body so that everything else scale. Let's take a look. We see it on the TV now, just so you're aware. Just the tech side of you can understand this. Thank you. Yeah, that's the body I want. I want my creature that size. I wouldn't have known what that looked like. Does the neck, is the neck included in the body?

It's part of the body. It's part of the body. It's not part of the head. It's part of the body. Yes. Yes, that's the best answer. Okay. Great.

You're up. So I'm in the middle. I am going to go with the head of a crocodile. It's pretty historic. It is. It's just so soft. F off. I need my Google.

I am going to opt for. Dude, look at that, by the way. Look at those teeth. Yes. If you put that on a big body, it might be a little scary. Yep, yep. You know what? I'm going to take the body of a woolly rhinoceros.

Okay. It's an extinct animal, prehistoric creature. And with that... It's going to be pretty small. Compared to mine. With that. Yes, look at that. Fantastic.

Why can't that still be around? I know. We need them. So I've got the body of a woolly rhinoceros, and that is going to be on the limb structure. because it's not legs. Lim structure of a velociraptor. Which we now know is like part feathers, very fast.

Disgusting. Yeah, that first picture, that'll do any of the ones where you see the feathers. We now know it's like that. Very fast. Got the tail for balance there. We're going to add that into the wind structure. Pat, your turn? No, you're up.

No, you're up. Crocodile head, what are you going to do? I'm going to put this on a body obviously of a T-Rex. Thank you. Okay. Crocodile with a T-Rex head, which is just a slightly worse T-Rex. Correct, yeah.

Cool, so I've got this big stocky body. I've got to give it an incredibly intimidating head. Yes. So I have no choice but to go with a megalodon head. Wow. On that neck swinging around. The brociosaurus, now here's why I didn't go bronisaurus. Brockesaurus has a much thicker neck to support this giant.

Still a pretty small head by scale, though. It's going to be pretty big when we see it up close. Because, I mean, look, look at the guy standing in the megalodon fucking jaw, man. Yeah, no, that's a small head. That's big. That's big. I hope it can support that weight. Well, it definitely can't take on my rockerrex. It's shell.

And limb structure is a great way of putting it. Yeah. Because I, believe it or not, don't want this to be a land animal. Interesting. A lamb animal. And because the wings will scale up, I'm giving it the wings of a teradactyl. Wow.

This will be a flying creature. He's a disaster. He's got no feet. It's terrible. It's very terrifying. It's horrific. So you've thrown those wings on the body of, what was the body? A brociosaurus.

Yes. And with a megalodon head. There's nothing you can say. Yeah, that's a lot. There's a lot going on. All right. What do you got? I honestly can't even think of one other prehistoric animal.

So I will be going with the... Mosquito. The limb structure, is that what we're calling? Yeah, sure. The limb structure of Pat's mom. She's prehistoric. Oh, God. All right, I'm going with the limb structure of.

Patrick's mentally signing off. No. I'm going with the limb structure because this is the only other one that I know, and I don't even know if it's prehistoric. I'll say a dodo burn. Oh, boy. That's something. It's going to be a waddling.

T-Rex With a crockle It's literally just a bad T-Rex He just took a T-Rex And made it worse In every way What isn't that Every animal

You take the body of? If the challenge was Just make a T-Rex 80% worse We've done it Forrest How do you want to round out Your creature?

I've got the The body of a Woolly rhinoceros On Velocer-Legder legs I'm gonna go ahead And give it A Mosasaur head Talked about him

I got to see this thing. You got to come. Bring the comments back up, Kyle. You got to come to the Tucson Rock and Mineral show with me next year. I would love to. It is so fun, and there were so many Mosasaur artifacts and full intact Mosasaur, you know, pretty intact skeletons. That's amazing. That were for sale.

I mean, they're like a couple hundred grand. Sure. Yeah, no, we're not buying one, but we'll go look at them. Yeah. It's real fun. Yeah. No, that's my critter. So let's see in the comments.

I don't know if anybody is commented on who won what, but. What's a bootleg Spino? Oh, Mosasaur heads were not that impressive. Boom. I thought it looked scary. What do you mean is not that impressive? Did you see its head?

Brolicolio? What was that tongue twister I made up earlier? You need... Okay. All right. Pat's animal cannot breathe. Oh, yeah, that's a good point. Let's get the head of a shark.

No, that's not how we play that. Ooh. Sabretooth, somebody brought it up. Smash that light button. Pat W. I saw that. I saw that Pat slams. Yes, keep him coming. Dude, my Toto Bird feet are terrifying. Smash that like button, Kyle. Whatever that means to Rock and Ruin. Just smash it. I don't know what he's saying, but just do it.

Thanks, Rock and Rewan. Yeah, thank you. Like Pat's mom got smashed before it was conceived. Nope, we're done with that. We've built up. She watches this and listens to it. Yeah. I apologize. I actually do love you that you produce this beautiful human being over here. I'm just making jokes. Don't cancel me. All right. All right. It's time. It's the 100th episode.

We've had a big live episode. I thought we were done. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. There's a nice, warm, crazy to tend to. Somebody get a fucking, I can't even stand up. I'm hammed. He is hammed. It's going to go all over the couch if he does it there.

Let's move this table out. Here comes Charlie. Charlie. Owen Roberts is nice to do it. I'm not happy about this, but I'll do it for you. hundred episodes you can't really do you know what to do do you understand the premise of shotguning and i said that defeats the purpose that no no i'm not going to tell him i was just asking if he knows i think we just have to see what he does wait you got to come back go back to your corner so that the

brosters can see you hold up whoa you just pulled the mic you are hammed this is going as smoothly kyle can you can you jump to the camera and widen out so that we can see him his full body hold on hold on we're gonna get Kyle to get on that he'll do it right there okay here we that's Kyle's pinned in all right this is big I'm moving away as I don't want to get Eric Opperman says better not spill a drop and he means it oh boy Kyle please tell me you're watching this okay do we have towels he did do it though he did it right sort of right like it right not far off at all the right oh my goodness
