For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions. Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of play. Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down. Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head, and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her. This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History.

Matariki. Oh, that's right. You're going to the northern hemisphere. Ew, you're going to be in summer. I know. So jealous. It's a heatwave though. It's 40 degrees. God. Are you worried that you're all pasty and yuck? Yes. I'm going to get burnt as a crisp and then I'm going to get all yuck. You're going to want to wear like shorts and tops and stuff.

And everyone's going to be like, oh my eyes. Oh, what is that? I'm really worried that I will be rejected from being let into Greece when they see our pasty eyes. Yeah, yeah. They'll be like, I'm sorry, we've rejected your visa. I thought you were Italian. I thought you were half Italian.

You need to go back. Get this woman an iron transfusion. Yeah, jeez. Claude and I are very similar in that way. What, pasty? Yeah. We are pasty. Who's pastier, me or Claudia?

Me at the moment, I think. Or me. Oh, you're pretty pasty too. I'm pink daddy, yeah. Yeah. Show me your legs. No, not at the moment. The things that don't see the sun.

Are they pale? Claude's showing us the legs. Oh! Look at those. That's glowing. Look at those. If we can't get any light of those LED lights for our videos. I can't tell where your sock starts and your leg ends.

I know. My hair gives me a bit of shading Yeah your hair gives you An unrealistic Oh Claude your hair gives you A decent amount of shading too Oh my legs Claude you're pretty white too

Ella what about you? I got hairy legs No what are you doing for Matariki? Oh I thought we were looking at her legs Shaving her legs Yeah I don't know I've got to the beach

What beach? Man we're fucking boring eh I'm sorry I haven't planned anything Did you guys check out Matsuriki last year? Did you look at the stars? Yeah

Yeah Cool I didn't Expand on that I did I definitely Definitely did I made a video

Of the stars last year Oh there you go I don't remember What I did Like I can't remember What I did yesterday No neither I can't remember what I did yesterday. No, neither. I was camping and we woke up early to find them.

It was lovely. Oh, that's cute. Where were you camping? In Northland on an avocado orchard. That's right. On a bus? Yeah, on a bus. Yeah.

Good times. Do you reckon you can see them from the Northern Hemisphere? The stars? Yeah, probably not. The stars. What universe are we in? Which galaxy? Earth?

Universe. We're in the known universe. Correct. What universe, though? I don't know. I don't know. What universe are we in? Alpha Prime?

The Milky Way? No, that's the galaxy that we're in. Isn't that the same thing? No. The universe is full of an infinite number of different galaxies. What universe is? That's the terrifying thing about the universe. I'm not trying to comprehend it.

I'm starting to panic. It scares me. Earth is in the second largest galaxy of the local group, a galaxy called the Milky Way. Are you trying to prove a point? Because you just proved Clint right. No, I'm just reading to you what I've got. The Milky Way is a large spiral galaxy.

Earth is located in one of the spiral arms of the Milky Way, which lies about two-thirds of the way from the centre of the galaxy. Yeah. The Orion Arm. Orion? Oh, my gosh. It's not mansplaining because Claudia said it at the same time as me. The Orion arm.

This is what you need to do this weekend. This is from Matariki. I don't fucking care. You need to go out in the backyard Find the Matadiki cluster And then find Orion's belt Orion It's spelt Orion So I just

And then eat some Oreo cookies Oh I didn't need this today Nobody needs this Why are we even doing this? Why do we do this? Yeah Why do we do this? I'm here for space facts

And we got space facts. Space facts. Okay. All right. Here's a game. Here's a game. Everyone. Oh, Phil's wrapping us up.

No, this is the last bit. Then we can go. Right. The game is- Can I just, just before you do it, before you do it. Do people enjoy listening to podcasts where the hosts are like forcing themselves to podcast? I need to see some stats on what kind of podcast people enjoy and if that's one of them. When you listen to podcasts, you're like, fuck, I love the bit where they

don't want to be there. I say, for tomorrow's podcast, I've got a great idea. I say we waterboard Clint. Yeah, for science. That escalated, but yeah, sure. That's interesting. I've always wanted to waterboard.

It's very random, but sure. Would you be up for being waterboard? Yeah, of course. For people who don't know what waterboarding is, it's a form of torture where we will lay Clint down. It's like I'm drowning. And it's like he's drowning. That's so funny.

As long as I don't drown. No, we won't drown you. It's a simulated drowning. But it'll just be, you know, we'll just give you. Unfortunately, I won't be able to use the safe word because I'll be fucking drowning. We'll only waterboard you a little bit. All right, put it on the maybe pile. And what's your game for today?

And game for today, everyone needs to say a space fact, but you can't use Google. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun we don't know because i can't use low-hanging fruit claudia but yeah sure um i want a better one than claudia um the sun was made over millions and millions of years was

like bull uh not balls um gas, gas and electric. No Bible facts. Poops on you. It wasn't, you dick. I read that the other day. It was. It was actually science AF. Sorry, Ella. Ella's like, why do you even get me involved in this?

She's like, guys, I'm trying to believe what I said. I'm going to go back to work. Okay, sweet. I've got one. Yeah. Did you know, this is fact, and I don't know the exact details, but the general gist is there. When the first woman.

Dang, that's the key part of fact. When the first woman. This is in the general ballpark. When the first woman went to space, NASA decided to send about, I think it was something ridiculous, like 5,000. No, you've exaggerated it. I think it was something ridiculous Like 5,000 No you've exaggerated it I think it was 150

Yeah you can google it Because I need you to get it right Because I've got something to say Can I do another fact in the meantime The planet Uranus Is the only planet in our galaxy With vertical rings. Damn.

You can come and have a look at my ring if you want. I've already done that. Okay, hold on. You're not actually going in. Yeah, but she's allowed because she was wrong. She's fact-checking herself. This is your second fact-checking of yourself in one podcast. Okay.

So the first time NASA sent a woman into space she went for a week and they sent her with a hundred tampons. A hundred. A hundred tampons for a week. She should not say anything and just pocket them and be like

thank you, that's fine. My favourite part, it was actually six days. It wasn't even a week. Was she even on her period? No. Oh, my God. My favourite. That's where it gets interesting because I'm like, that sounds fine.

Well, I don't know. What do you mean that sounds fine? Well, what if she was? You wouldn't want her to run out. You'd want her to have more than less. How many tampons do you think we're using? Like, no, let's actually talk about this. How many tampons do you think we're using? Like, no, let's actually talk about this. How many tampons do you think a woman would use for one period?

Five or six a day? Oh, no. For a very heavy flow. If you had a raging flow, mate. Really? Yes. How many are you using? I'll tell you.

Hold on. Because women always, I've seen women post this fact before and they're like, men are so dumb. I'm like, what? Sounds fun to me. Let's say, I mean, I'll do the average amount for an average period so then we're not going like extreme or like not much okay so let's say okay i'm gonna be a little bit more generous yeah i'd say for a period you'd use like 15 for one period. Oh, really?

Claude? I would have said 20. What? I'd say... That's me using... The whole period. That's me using... Don't period shame, Claude. I'm not period shaming. I'm just... Wow. That's me using three tampons a day

for five days. It's 15. If I was doing four a day for five days, it's 20. You do them four? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But here's the variable that we don't know. What? A woman, up until that point, a woman had never had her period in space before. True.

It's not going to mean she needs 100 tampons. You don't know what gravity will do to that flow. Yeah, what would happen if period blood's floating in space? She doesn't have that much blood in there. It's just hanging out there. Does it fall? No. I guess if she moved.

Do you know, like, you actually don't release that much blood. It's actually hardly anything. I can't believe. We found out. We found out. Thank you. And I just want to stand and salute that woman for her services. My favourite part, though, about that story.

My favourite part about that story is that the people who did that, right, figured out how to send people to the fucking moon, right? Yeah. They're that smart. These are some of the smartest people on planet Earth. They sent a woman with 100 tear bombs. And thank you, you've actually just reminded me of my space fact. What's yours?

With that. You're talking about these incredibly intelligent people who couldn't figure out what to do there. My space fact is during the space race between the Americans and the Russians in the 1960s, the American NASA needed to find a way to make pens work in space because a ballpoint pen works by gravity pushing the ink inside there.

It needs gravity to be down on the ball so that it comes out the bottom. So they had to find a way that a pen would be able to pump the ink down because gravity wouldn't let the ink come down so the pen would work. So they spent tens of thousands of dollars coming up with a pen that would work in space and the Russians took pencils. That's so sweet.

Isn't that incredible? That's quite funny. Isn't it? Oh my gosh. Oh God. I better live in your world. Guys, should we just save time? Should we just take a pencil?

Yeah. Yeah. Maybe 100 pencils. Let's concentrate. 100 pencils. I mean, still didn't get them to the moon first, did it? Yeah. How many pencils do we need if one of the chick astronauts has got a period?

Oh, 100. Always 100. About 100. Always 100. Just give her 100 and then we don't have to ask her about the period. And then she doesn't have to talk about it. Just don't talk to us about it. When we're up in space.

And we don't need to know what's going on with her. Guys, I don't think I need a... Ew, gross. Houston, we have a period. She wasn't even an astronaut. She was just a woman at NASA that started talking about her period, so they shot her into space. And shot her full of 110 bombs.

That should do it, guys. I think that'll do it. And you guys didn't want to do this podcast. It's one small step for man. One giant period. For womankind. See you guys tomorrow. Go listen to the other podcast. It's one small step for man. One giant period for womankind. See you guys tomorrow. Go listen to the other podcast. Bye. Bye.
