I follow one of those pages which is just like world facts or something. Did you guys see the new images from Mars? No. The cleanest we've ever seen. Absolutely incredible.

They just like share stuff like that. Right. And then one of the things that it shared was, did you know that Canada has three lakes? one called Pussy Lake one called Big Ass Lake and one called Bitch Lake Are you for real?

Pussy Lake and Big Ass Lake Now pussy Lake We've got a beaver road Don't we? Canada I really want to go to Canada one day So Pussy Lake is in Ontario

In Canada is a small officially recognized body of water spanning 47.3 hectares. Pussy Lake looks lovely. Surrounded by bush. Good, good. Is it like a local word? Is it like a local tribe's... Are we saying it wrong?

Pussy. I don't know. Pussy lake. What's the stat they've got more lakes or something than... Infinite shoreline. It's incredible. And islands and lakes. I've been watching...

I've been watching a Canadian crime detective show. I've just finished it. It's so beautiful. What was it cool? It's on neon. They only ever did four seasons. I just finished season four last night and I was sad because they're not making any more ever. Oh.

Yeah. I'm just looking up big ass lake in Canada, glacial lake in Halifax County, Nova Scotia. Like, no one's making fun of this. Don't we not making fun of big ass lake? Didn't we have a... Dude, dude. Yeah, slurs. Yeah.

Slurs. I was recently regaling my daughters and my girlfriend with funny facts. You know, they love this. They're just hanging around. Tell us another story. Dad, please. More, more, more. Please, Dad.

We're 12 and 14. We love when you talk about stuff we've got no interest in. Yes, yeah. Tell us more. Tell us more. Please. And I was like, do you know, New Zealand had like official place names with the N word in it? Yeah, I remember this.

And they were like, what? I was like, yeah, there was, so I looked it up. There was a stream located near Arthur's Pass. Renamed in 2016. Yeah. Fuck off. No. N-stream.

N-head, which was like a head. Yeah. Like, it's like laughing. If I laugh, like, it's a little, it's a, it's a, I can't even say it. A snigger. You're sniggeringering. Yeah, drop the S. Fuck off.

And in 2016, N-head, located in North Canterbury, we are seeing a trend here, South Island. Especially Canterbury. Yeah. And inward hill became Canuka Hills. in 2016. 2016, 10 years ago, they were like,

we probably need to rename these. Who? Who? What the hell? Do you think even in 2014, when they were printing

out a new sign for the bridge that goes over in river? They were like, maybe not. You know, maybe not.

But still in use, Dark East Terrace and Darkies Creek on the west coast of the South Island. Again, there is a pattern. Suggests these

historic gold mining era names reference in 19th century African American and prospector known as Darkie Addison. That was his nickname. Did he give himself that nickname?

Oh, it was a pretty pretty big. Well, no, if you give yourself a nickname, it never sticks. It's like how my mum and all of her cousins and siblings used to call their nana, their Māori, full-blooded Māori Nana, Black Nana. Yeah, I know that. And they had Nana and Black Nana. And Black Nanna was like lovingly known as Black Nanner. Lovingly.

Black Nana. So the spin-off did an article about funny place names in Alteroa. and the North Island there's I mean Cox Bay that's a classic Nutstream Beaver Road Yeah but that's not as bad as Shag Street Nah

The tits in the central North Island There's balls clearing in the central north island Dipspur Um Bob's knob Yeah There's actually there was a department of conservation New Zealand Department of Conservation video

They went round on the map And saw all the places like knob And it's always like Bill's Knob Oh yeah it's Colonial Knob In Wellington You climb up the knob. There's bald knob. Meet you at the top of the knob.

The Department of Conservation Social Media Department, very savvy and funny. I think they gave the keys to a Gen Z and said you just take care of this because you actually know it. They're probably not turning up for work half the time. But they're getting their time. You can't talk to them with a strong, you know. Crying at the microwave.

Yeah, they're sensitive. Bird of the years back too. They'll be, you know, froth in it. Yeah. We should take a swim in Pussy Lake. If we ever get to Canada together, the three of us. Big ass lake.
