Full show transcript:
If my math is correct, this is episode 252. Woah. Yeah. It's wake up classy 97, the podcast. What's up?
Oh, I was just gonna tell you about, Alone, the show that we've been watching. Alone Australia. Right. Now we've watched Alone regular Alone, which is in regular? It's, what?
Vancouver? I think they're in Vancouver Island. Yeah. Yeah. And they have to deal with Bears.
Bears and Snow. Cougars and snow. Yeah. But on Australia Yeah. They have to deal with Tasmanian devils.
Which, small. But But I don't like the noise they make. No. And they are aggressive. Yeah.
One lady said she was afraid she was gonna wake up, and it was gonna be trying to eat her face. Yeah. And I I said that's that's a situation, isn't it? Now I was just reading about the Tasmanian devil. It says they're not a threat and will not attack unless provoked or feeling threatened.
But Yeah. If you're in their territory, in their space Sure. They could be threatened that way. Right. I was watching this alone show going, I don't know why people wanna do this.
For $250,000. And you have to outlast. There's 10 contestants, and you have to be the one to outlast. Last person standing is 250. But you're alone.
You get 10 emergency items to bring. You they give you a kit. So in your kit, there are a few things. So there's, like, paracord, ferro rod. Like tarps.
Yeah. Like, there's there are certain items they give you in your kit. But the other part of the show is that you are also responsible for filming everything that you're doing in your, in your time there. And they have a little, filming boot camp thing that they put everybody through, which I think I just wanna take that part. I wanna be better at, like, vlogging and, and making videos.
So I just wanna take that part. But, also, you're alone. So they have to build a shelter. Correct. They have to find their own food.
Correct. They have to survive alone Yeah. For however long It takes. It takes. Yeah.
I couldn't do it. I don't wanna do it. I don't know why they wanna do this. $250,000. One guy's already tapped out.
Day two, he tapped. He's like, yeah. I'm done. I'm going home. I've seen more episodes than you.
Yeah. You have. I fell asleep. So I know other things that have happened. What else has happened?
You watch the show. I just can spoil it. I would trip immediately. Okay. Get scratched by a tree branch or something.
It would immediately become infected, and I'd be like, I gotta go. Within the first half hour The first thirty minutes, they drop you off and you tripped getting off the boat and fell into a mud hole, and they went, just go home. Just go home. You're not equipped for this. And I'd be like, I know.
Why did you bring me here? Where could you do alone and be successful? My house. No? Yeah.
You you wanna do alone at home? Yes. Home alone. Yes. My stuff, I've got food there.
I've got my books there. I've got my art supplies. Ask. I I want you to be able to, to have this type of adventure alone. I would have an adventure at home.
I could come up with an online adventure. Your stuff. The point is you get 10 items. Like, you gotta have the experience of alone in a setting that you would feel like you could succeed at, not at home with all your stuff and a fridge and whatever. Alright.
I know you could live years at home. I feel like I could do it like an island park. Do you think so? Yeah. There's bears.
I know there are, but There's mountain lions. How to handle those. I know You do? I'm equipped. I know I I'm not equipped, but, yeah, I know bear safety.
I know bear rules. I know how to hang a bear bag. But they drop you off in, like, September, October, maybe even November. No. I already told you.
I'm not. The the snow is part of it. I know. I'm out. I don't wanna do it at all.
That's why I wanted you to pick somewhere that you could. I just told you. Winter in Island Park. I don't know where else to go. That's fine.
Where would you go? I hadn't thought about it. If I if it's gonna be in the wintertime and you have to survive, I want a mild winter. So I want somewhere, like, just North of Red Rocks and, and Saint George in Utah, just north of that, where I still have to deal with some snow, but also it's gonna be nice and sunny and melt away in the day. Quick.
Yeah. Yeah. But that's desert. That's gonna be real hard to find food. I'm gonna have to eat a bunch of lizards and stuff.
And scorpions and stuff. I don't wanna eat that. That's that's the hardest part for me would be food. The hardest part is all of the things. I can build a shelter.
I can build a fire. I can I can do all that? I can't deal with the food. Hey. Oh, you wanna start the show?
Yeah. We've been rambling a lot. It's a podcast. We ramble all day. Alright.
We'll start the show. Hello. Hello. Hi. Oh, hi.
What's up? Oh, what's up with you? Don't answer a question with a question. Why wouldn't I? What's up?
Oh, I don't know. What's up with you? Just just what's up? What do you want me to say? I don't want you to say anything.
I want you to just tell me what's up. What's going on today? You tell me. What's with all the questions? I wanted to see that's a game.
That's an improv game. Answering a question with a question? Yeah. You just question question question. But it's supposed to make, like, a complete like, it's supposed to make sense.
Right? Yeah. I see what you're doing. How clever. How clever of you.
Oh, did it make any sense? No. I mean, yeah, my questions were fine. You just didn't play along with the questions. It's fine.
It's it was fun. I had a good time. Did you? Yeah. Well, that's good.
I was just looking around the room. That's one of us. Well, fun is what you make it there, Josh. What does that even mean? Oh, that means that you can have as much fun as you wanna make it.
If you wanna be You're just repeated the same thing. It doesn't mean that's what that means. I think here's what I think is happening. What? I think you're still waking up.
I kinda am as I'm rubbing my eyes on the wall. I think you don't know what's up. Oh, I do. No. What's up?
Oh, what is up then? Because this is where we started. What's up? If you know what's up, what's up? Okay.
I'll tell you. Okay. It is Thursday, but it's essentially our Friday because we have tomorrow off. That's right. Today is Juneteenth?
It is Juneteenth. I was gonna say that. A lot of people don't know what Juneteenth is K. Still. Help me out.
Okay. I will tell you. President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1863. Okay. But the last slaves in Galveston, Texas weren't freed until two and a half years later Wow.
On 06/19/1865. So a hundred and sixty years ago today, the very last slaves were finally freed. That's, It's a big deal. Well, I I'm amazed at that gap in time. Two years?
I know. Well pretty incredible. And it's only been a hundred and sixty years. I know. It feels so much longer than that, but it doesn't seem when you think about it that way Honestly, that's that's two to three generations of people.
Like, that's not that long ago. You said how long ago? A hundred and sixty? Mhmm. I guess it'd be a little bit more than 60 five.
It'd be a little bit more than that. But, but there are people that were 100 years old in 1965 that were born when that happened. Yeah. So that's what I'm saying. Like, it's really not that long ago.
It's not. That's pretty wild. It is pretty wild. Yeah. I know there's, a couple of Juneteenth celebrations today.
I'm sure there are. I know there's one at the Colonial Theater Okay. In Idaho Falls. Uh-huh. I'm not sure what's going on in Pocatello.
But I'm sure there's stuff happening in Just remember, it is a federal holiday as of I mean, a recent federal holiday. I think it came out a couple years ago that they sent. Right. But just remember So are banks closed? Offices are gonna be closed.
I don't know about banks, but I know post offices and city offices will be closed. Right. So Alright. Well, that is what's up. See?
That's all you needed to do. You're welcome. We just had to have about a minute and a half of you waking up. Rub my eyes a little bit and say, to you too. Have you seen that trend where it's, you say something like, I do this now so future me doesn't suffer.
I I haven't really seen that trend, but tell me more about it. I I don't wanna I don't wanna lie and say, oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because I I haven't.
So, essentially, it's you do your dishes after eating so that you don't have to do them. Like, I like to go to bed. I make sure the dishes in the sink are like, the sink and the counters are clean so that when I wake up in the morning, I don't have to worry about it. I like that. And then I understand.
You you do that before we leave on vacation. You do that before Yeah. Like, you you like coming home to a clean house so that you can put stuff away and then have the house be tidy. I understand. Yes.
I've lived with you a long time. These are true statements. Yeah. K. Go on.
Okay. I did not do something that I should have done last night, and I woke up this morning and went, now I'm suffering. Not suffering. That's an extreme word. No.
But it's enough to weigh you down. It's enough to go like, oh, grand. What am I gonna do? Is it something about laundry? No.
It's something about lunch. Oh, oh, I forgot my lunch. Yeah. You had a big old sack lunch. I know.
I left it in the fridge. I didn't even have a lunch. I've been getting those bagged salads because I think that's it's I heard you telling the dog about that. What did I say to the dog? You said, Luna, I'm out of salad.
What am I supposed to have for lunch? Like, she was gonna solve it. I mean, she's around. She's your shadow. She's your buddy.
I talk to her a lot. She's the only one in the house that listens to her. Clearly. And she doesn't talk back. There's that.
So she just listens that. Yeah. She just stands there and looks at me, like Like, oh, yeah? You got any more of that peanut butter? Do you got any pepperoni?
Right. I've been just buying those bagged salads because it's easy. I could buy all the stuff to make a salad, but that seems more complicated. Yeah. Instead, you have to chop up your lettuce, and you have to chop up your You have to chop up your lettuce.
If you buy, like, a head of lettuce Why would you do that? To make a salad. Why wouldn't you just buy the shredded bag? That's what I'm saying I'm doing. No.
You're getting the little ones. Why wouldn't you just get, like, a big tub of it? Like, a big tub of spinach, a big tub of mixed greens, a big tub of But then you still I gotta chop up my cucumbers. I gotta chop up my tomato. Uh-huh.
It's I know. I know. It's a a first world problem. I get it. But I buy the bags of salad because I'm like, just dump it in my to go container.
Yeah. Off we go. Mhmm. It's easy. Alright.
So I ran out of those. Yeah. Guess what I did have in the fridge? I don't know. Spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers.
All the things to make a spinach salad. Broccoli. I could have made a salad, but I looked at it and went So you don't have a lunch today? Nope. Me neither.
Because I forgot mine. Do you wanna go to lunch? Yeah. Every day, I I go, maybe she'll wanna go to lunch today. Every single day.
You don't ask me every single day? Because the answer's always no. Not always. Because I usually bring a lunch. I know.
And or or you eat at a different time. And I'll say, hey. I'm I'm getting ready for lunch. And you're like, oh, I can't go yet. Or, oh, I already ate my lunch.
Those are the two things I get. And I'll go, okay. I'll go by myself. So I quit asking. Oh, that's not nice.
You never stop asking. If you get told no enough, you're gonna quit asking. So I did. It's not like a full on rejection. Yeah.
It's enough over time. It's not it's not like one time I went, well, I'll quit asking. It's it's been multiple times. Well, I'm sorry that I'm so busy. What?
Or that I've been taking a salad. Right. You've been taking you've been taking lunch for a long time. And I'll go, yeah. You could have that.
Or you know what else sounds good? A taco. See? I'll always like a taco. I know.
I know. Well, ask me today. Well, I just did. Well, you kinda asked me, and I said, yeah. It's the way it always goes.
Isn't it? No. It's not. It's not the way it always goes. Do you do anything now so that your future self doesn't suffer later?
Is there anything that you do? No. I just I just drag myself through the day. Come on. We could've done this yesterday, but now we gotta do it now.
Come on. That's that's my life. Okay. There are times where I go, like, that's gonna be a future Josh problem. Yeah.
I'm not gonna deal with that now. That's a problem for future Josh. I have heard you say that. Yeah. Because that's, that's how I that's how I work.
Yeah. Works for me. You're recognizing it. Yeah. And that's half the battle, isn't it?
I guess so. Yeah. Good news to get you going this morning. Check it out. Eighty two year old Faith O'Reilly.
You ever heard of her? No. You're about to. She's from Colorado. She is currently the oldest enlisted female participant in what sport?
Pickleball. No. Bowling? No. Basketball?
No. Okay. Just tell me. Powerlifting Oh. At the twenty twenty five national senior games.
Faith. Uh-huh. This is her first time, that that she will be there. 82 years old, and she is, she's a a monster. She said, I was watching it and thought, well, I can do that.
Uh-huh. And that confidence, step one, blossomed into a capability that saw her win multiple Iowa State championships as she lifted the double burden of weights in school. She graduated and, went on to teach undergraduate level legal studies and paralegal work in the criminal justice field after retiring and moving to a tiny Colorado town Colorado? Colorado town, from her native Iowa. She took up powerlifting, in 02/2007, and she recommends it to anyone.
She said it's overall good for you physically. And as you age, you have problems with bone density and losing muscle tone. Yes. She took the gold medal in twenty twenty three women's triathlon relay for the 75 and older bracket. She says it's really fun to, see and interact with other people who are enjoying being more fit, than the rest of our age group.
The oldest person who competed in Pittsburgh where she won that gold medal was a 103. She said that gives me a goal. So she's working. And she is 82 years old, and she is a power lifting machine. What's the difference between power lifting and just lifting?
Okay. So power lifting is there's a couple of different, events, that you would do, like the the jerk and pull, the, you know, like, the different, the different bar lifts where just weight lifting. Like, she isn't doing bench press. She isn't doing, like you know, she's just doing, the power lifting ones. There's I think there's three of them.
Okay. I gotta remember what they're called. I it's been a long time since I took strength and conditioning. Been a long time since you power lifted? Yeah.
So it's oh, it is, it is squat, bench press, and deadlift. That's those three. It is those three. Okay. Those are the power lifting.
Oh, good. Well, good job, Faith. Yeah. Killing it at eighty two. Yep.
Go get them. Very, very cool. Go get them, tiger. It's good news to get you going. Okay.
Listen to this. I'm gonna teach you something. I'm okay. Go ahead. Are you ready?
Pen and pen. No. You do not. You don't. I'm ready.
Oh my gosh. Lid off pen. I am so ready to learn. Okay. Have you ever heard of Dolber's Law?
Dolber. Dolber. Like, the comic strip Dilbert's Brother? Nope. Dolber?
No. No. No. I don't know Dolber's Law. So Dolber's Law describes the relationship between the temperature and the rate that crickets chirp.
No way. Yeah. Way. Okay? Specifically, it states that the number of chirps and it applies really to snowy tree crickets.
Are those the ones around us? Unsure. Okay. Alright. Okay.
Alright. So the number of chirps a snowy tree cricket makes per minute is related to the temperature in degrees in Fahrenheit. So if you count the number of chirps and apply the formula, you can estimate the temperature outside. Okay. Who's counting chirps?
Because not me. Find a cricket and count how many Thanks. You have to count how many times it chirps in about fifteen seconds. How do you know it's the same cricket? It you have to have it.
You have the cricket. You think if I'm holding a cricket, it's gonna sit and chirp in my hand? No. No. No.
Put it in a box. What Jiminy Cricket are you talking about? Or sit outside and just try it. We're gonna try it. I don't know if we got Isn't there a cricket in Mulan?
Yeah. Yeah. There is. Cool. I'll ask her.
Okay. Listen. To hear. I've sat outside Yeah. When the crickets are doing their thing.
You can't pick one cricket out of a crowd. Let's try it though tonight and see if we can determine. Did you hear the crickets last night? They were crazy. Were they?
Oh, yeah. Are they snowy tree crickets? That's our first thing. We have to determine if we have snowy tree crickets here. Okay.
So if you're not such a negative Nancy about this and you actually wanna try this okay. You if you count, for example, 20 chirps in fifteen seconds, then you you add 20, the chirps, plus 40. You're doing too much. What? Why?
How? Take the number of crooked chirps. No. No. No.
You have to find a cricket and count how many times it chirps in fifteen seconds, and then the formula is that you add 40 to the number of chirps you counted. Example, 20 chirps in fifteen seconds. You take 20 plus 40, that equals 60. That is degrees Fahrenheit. Yeah.
Yeah. Okay. What did you find out? Nothing. You didn't you were supposed to look and see if snowy tree crickets are in Idaho.
I didn't look that up specifically. What were you I'm looking up their habitat. They live in shrubs and vines and fruit trees, broadleaf trees and oaks. They can rarely be found in grass, which is where all of our crickets live. Okay.
Adults of the species can be found from mid July to mid November. The cricket can sometimes be so high in oak trees that its chirp is the only way to identify it because you'll never see it. Okay. Listen. Here's what else I know about this.
Uh-huh. Are you ready? Sure. It's not perfectly accurate in all conditions, but it's pretty decent for a ballpark temperature, especially if you're stuck outside with no thermometer and only a cricket for company. Oh, those are the best days, aren't they?
Just me and that cricket. Jiminy. It also is not reliable in extreme heat or cold. So if it's, like, negative 20, don't be counting those cricket chirps. Okay.
So A long guy. Snowy tree crickets can be found throughout most of The United States. They are absent from the Southeastern Atlantic and Gulf Coast states as well as Florida, Mississippi, and Montana. Why don't they like Montana? It's a good state.
It's probably too cold. It's I don't know. Interesting. I don't know. That doesn't make sense either because Florida and Mississippi aren't too cold.
But they're also found in Southern Canada and Mexico, so they probably are around. Uh-uh. Okay. Also, here's what else I know. They may chirp more in response to light.
So Okay. And time of day and age also play a factor. Number of chirps per fifteen seconds Yeah. Plus 40. Mhmm.
And that's the degrees in Fahrenheit. I'll never remember that. That's like that's like how many seconds away is lightning from thunder. And then people tell you every second is a mile, and that's not right. It's something else.
I'd listen. I I didn't come up with this. Dolber did. Oh, good job, Dolber. Tell your brother Dolber.
I said, hey. Amos Amos Dolbert. Yeah. That's his name. Published this phenomenon in 1897.
No way. Good for him. And now you know. Bing, bing, bing, bing. I was watching, a video of a DJ, like a disc jockey, like a like a you know?
What are you trying to say? You were watching a video of a DJ like a disc jockey. Yeah. And then or or or or or? Yeah.
Yeah. Okay. Do you mean, like, a club DJ? Yes. Correct.
Okay. That's, okay, not a radio Correct. Person nowadays. Record like Yeah. Okay.
You know, when they That's what that was? Mhmm. Clearly. You do it. No.
I like the way you did it. You you rip. There you go. Like that. Like that.
Mhmm. Like a transformer. Got it. Okay. This particular gentleman has his board.
Like, he's got his board laid out. Right? What's his board? His turntables? His turntables.
Yeah. So he's got, like, two turntables on the side. And a microphone? No. Go on.
There's a bunch of buttons in the middle. That's right. They're all there's a lot of them that are lit up, and he's got, like, some knobs and some things, sliders. You bet. Different things.
Yeah. And the video I watched was him just, like, showcasing, like, some of the best guitar riffs to open songs. Like, there was a Guns N' Roses song. Okay. There was a, ACDC song.
There was I don't know. So he was doing this, but what I noticed was that he was pushing buttons unnecessarily. He was doing things on his board that were, like, so I'm like, you're not even doing you're just playing the you're just playing the song. Uh-huh. So did he have them, like, like, the on the board, it had a series of, like, different colored, like, square buttons?
Yes. And he was hitting those? Yes. And then when one would end, he'd hit another one? Yes.
But he was hitting the buttons in the middle of the song too, and then he was sliding pots up, and he was, like Yeah. Turning little knobs and while the song was playing. And I was like, but the sound isn't changing. You're not doing anything. Right.
But he was like But he looks busy. Slide this pot up. Push that button. You know? Turn that knob.
You know that thing they make for kids where you, where you it's a big round thing and you put them in the middle and they can spin the chair around in the center. Yeah. And it's got all kinds of different buttons and baubles and things like that Yeah. For them to play with. Uh-huh.
The it's just the adult version of that. He's like, now, yeah. Move a slider. Doing this. Yeah.
Doing this. If it if it had, like, a couple of, like, wooden blocks, on a metal little whoopty roller coaster looking little thing, like, alright. Move those. Move one back. Move some abacus things.
Move one over there. Turn a thing, honk the little pop pop. I get what you're saying. That's what he's doing. He's just spinning around in his little chair.
Yeah. Yeah. It's true. He is doing that. Right.
Because nothing the sound wasn't changing. I was like, you're just playing the song. I I'm not trying to discredit live DJing. Agree. Live mixing is is a skill I don't have.
What I will say is that, there are a lot of the EDM folks that build their stuff at home in their studios on their computers. They take their little laptop, and they plug it into the sound system at the festival, and they hit the space bar, and then they play with the knobs. And the computer is just playing back the mix they bring. What he was doing. And Yeah.
Maybe that's just because it was like, I'm just filming a silly little video, so I'm gonna, like, showcase what, like rare. Right. I do in real time. I'm not changing audio. Doing something, but but I I doubt it.
I'd have to look at it because the software that they use on the computers ties into the the, like, the record decks. It's all digital now. It's not not a lot of guys are still mixing vinyl. There are some. My my buddy, Mike, still mixes vinyl very well.
But What do you mean when you say mixes vinyl? Like vinyl records. No. I get vinyl. He ripped it on turntables.
But what is the mixing part of it? That's the part I don't understand. Oh, where, I'm not gonna remix Well to make sound? Take samples. You you would have, records of, like, songs that are popular mixed with, stuff you're gonna sample from older stuff.
Like, they're really DJ mixing Okay. For real. Okay. And that's that's a skill. That's cool.
That's unreal. Like, it's crazy to watch. And those buttons in between the two turntables do stuff. Do stuff with your faders. To yeah.
Like, there's one that that fades between deck a and deck b, and so you you know, you're bouncing that one back and forth to a beat or whatever. And you've got a back time of vinyl record. Like, there's a lot to it. And then the digital ones will do it with digital files instead of vinyl records. It still works kinda the same way.
Seen those. But yeah. But, you know, like, the software I use is is a DJ software. I don't have turntables and all that stuff because I I just haven't ever been like, I'm gonna be that guy. You're not gonna turntable?
I would rather talk. You're not gonna be you're not gonna put a big marshmallow on your head and then Exactly. No. Compete against that marshmallow DJ guy. I'm not his name is Marshmallow.
No. I'm not going to compete against Marshmallow. What I got? I called him Marshmallow. Marshmallow guy.
Yeah. Marshmallow head guy. Yeah. No. Well, that's fun.
I'm gonna have to show you the video because I watched it, and I went, you're not even doing anything. You're There there are videos of of, like, full on DJ sets where the board is clearly not even connected to anything. Yeah. There's no power cord. There's nothing.
It's just sitting there, and then they've got a fog machine. And they're just doing a 100 different things on a non plugged in DJ board, and you're like, no. Not what are you doing? Sell for the gram, baby. I guess.
Yeah. For those likes. But the the crowd's jumping and listening to their laptop. Alright. Good job.
Let the beat drop, And then you go, I called somebody I call people dude, all genders. Yeah. I do too. I call gender skies. Hey.
Thanks, dude. Thanks, guys. Yeah. Women, men. Somebody pointed out to me that they were offended that I had said, thanks, guys.
Really? Uh-huh. And I am curious to know because I don't find that offensive. I feel like it's a I don't know. I feel like initially when guys was invented as, like, a nickname or something, that maybe it was initially intended for men.
I see what you're saying. Think Yeah. I think it's because it's a collective broader Yeah. I feel like it's a collective group. Like, thanks, guys.
Collectively Well, thanks, dudes. Group of people, humans. Mhmm. Thanks, humans. That's weirder.
Yeah. Thanks, humans. Thanks, humans. Maybe try that on. Or people.
Thanks, people. Yeah. I don't know. And then I was kind of not surprised, but I was like, oh, I didn't mean to be offensive. I was just it's just easy.
It's just easy to have it roll off the tongue. Yeah. I wasn't trying to be a jerk about it. I find myself more often, correcting myself about the use of, like, saying the girls at work. Like, that's that one's a tough one because I don't know why that's just so casual and easy and be like, oh, yeah.
The girls are working on it. But they're women, and and that's a tough one. What would you say if they were stuck on it. Like, the guys working on it or men working on a project, what would you say about them? Like, if there are three men working on a project, would you say, oh, the men are working on that?
Am I am I part of it? Are we are we, are we, comrades? Then I would be like, the boys are working on a thing. So you would say boys. So that's I guess that feel that feels like a like a me and the boys.
The boys and me. Whatever. You know? Like, that feels like, like a like an exclusive kinda like, yeah. We're working on this thing.
Equal to girls. It's not like you would say, oh, the women are working on it, and the men are working on this. Right. So the girls are working on this. The boys are working on this.
You know what I'm saying? I get it. It just feels it feels weird to say, oh, and the girls. I get it. Like, as a as an like, a 40 whatever year old dude going like, oh, the girls.
And they're Because they're in their twenties. They're old. Yeah. They're old. Women.
They're not it's not like teens or even, like, kids. It's it's grown women working on a thing. But I fall into that same trap. Right. I do the same thing.
If anyone is younger than me, I'll go, oh, girls. Right. I don't know. I don't know why that is. Do you do that with women who are older than you?
No. You don't say, oh, the girls are going to brunch. I say lady. Ladies. Mhmm.
I don't I don't hate that. That's a good work around. But it's just it's nothing I do. It's just subconscious where I go I know. If somebody's older than me, they're a lady.
If somebody's younger than me, it's it doesn't matter if they're same age. Oh. I just don't know about that one. Yeah. Me and the same aged human.
Real smooth. Really The whole rolls off the top. Yeah. That's, that's a that's an interesting one. And I don't like, I I call everybody dude.

I know. I say that when I'm with you because many hands make light work. No. You say that when I'm with you because you don't like pulling into the drive through of the of the car wash. Well, that too.
But if you get your side of the car vacuuming and I get my side of the car vacuuming, that's half the time, isn't it? But here's the thing. There was a bug that was Oh, no. In my car. Not a bug.
He died on the dashboard. Oh, RIP, little bug. Yeah. And he has been there for a long time. Did you name him?
I need to. I haven't named him yet. Bug is he? I don't know. Where was he?
I don't know. He's turned all kind of brown and crispy Oh, no. Because he's been there for so long. I I should take a picture of him. His name is brown and crispy.
Every day, and it's right in my eyesight. So I see him every day. He kinda he's flipped over so you can kinda see his little legs in there. Oh, no. What a sad thing.
You need to clean your car. I didn't know him when he was alive. I only know him dead. Post. I'm gonna be kinda sad when I vacuum my car out, and he goes, but he's kinda my good luck charm.
Well, keep him around. I might. It's gross. Is he like a beetle? Yeah.
We'll call him Beetlejuice. I think he might be a firebug. Like a Or was in his previous life. Like I said, he's brown beetle. Crunchy now.
Poor little Beetlejuice. I know. I'm gonna take a picture of him, but every day I get in and I go, yep. Still there. What?
Like, he was gonna, like, reincarnate and leave? No. I just sometimes I wonder if, like, maybe I take a turn too sharp that he's gonna, like, slide down the dash. Yeah. Go for a ride.
He's still there. Alright. You did the you drove my car last night. You didn't notice. Noticed.
He's right in your eyesight. No. I didn't see him. Right in the I get in and I go, hey, bud. That's outrageous.
You need to take care of that. I know. I never let my car get this bad. I don't like a messy car, but it needs a good vacuum and a good dust. I I need to I need to do that as well.
So I would wait until after this weekend. Yeah. I know. Because you're gonna have a bunch of scouts in this. That I am.
Oh. Because I'm gonna have the kids and gear and everything else. So, anyway K. Well, let's take mine today. I'll just do it today.
Just go ahead. I will just do it. You just have a good time. What do I do with the bug? Do I keep him?
It's up to you. Do I get rid of him? It is your call. Do I give him a proper I mean, he's been riding with me for weeks. Weeks and weeks.
He's been my little bud. If I move him, he's gonna be like, wait. We were friends. I should give him a proper burial just because he's been by my side. Oh, that's probably a good idea.
Do that. He's listened to me sing. Right. He has listened to me yell at other drivers. He's been there.
He's Through thick and thin? I know it. Yeah. I haven't even given him a name. Shame.
Bailey. Like, Beatle Bailey. Beatle Bailey. Hey. That cartoon where he was That's what I'm saying.
Little army guy. Beatle Bailey. Oh, I like that. There you go. I can't get rid of him.
Now that you can't get rid of Beatle Bailey. I'm gonna take a picture of him. Alright. You do that. What are you gonna do with the picture?
I'll send it to you. Alright. What? This is a question that I've seen before get asked. What?
Just the the way you start. Oh. You jump in, and then you go, no. I don't think I wanna start that way. So I'm gonna derail, and I'm gonna completely take a different track.
There's no preplanning involved. None. It's just what? No. Live radio.
Alright. What do you what Okay. What's up? What TV death upset you the most? Like, a of a of a Of a TV show.
A tel oh. A television which I'm sorry. I was gonna say that big screen RCA when the convergence chip went out and I had to get rid of that TV, that was a sad TV death. That was a sad TV death. I thought that's what you meant.
No. Because because I didn't explain it. That's What TV character death that set you the most? Without I mean, look. I'm not gonna do anything current.
So anything that I'm gonna talk about is going to be years old. Right. So we're not giving away any spoilers. I hope not. And if I am, sorry.
Okay. I think we might have the same one. On the count of three, I'll say mine, you say yours. Yeah. Ready?
One, two, three, Charlie. Yeah. It's Charlie Pace. From. Yeah.
I know. That is that one was the saddest. Yeah. That was that was rough. I'm trying to think of others because that one stood out immediately.
Ned Stark from Oh, yeah. Game of Thrones. Yeah. That's That was mostly a big Again shock. I would go, hey.
Not intending to spoil anything. But these are all new. This is a tough thing to talk about because, usually, it's, it's, like, a huge deal. What was that TV show, it must have been, like, the seventies or eighties that everybody was talking about who killed that guy. Yeah.
Yeah. Who shot JR? It was from Dallas. Wasn't it from Dallas? Know what it was from, but I know that was a huge thing.
Did we ever learn who shot JR? I don't know. I don't know either. I've never seen it. I wasn't around when it happened.
Spoilers incoming. Google it. I am. Who shot JR? Was it from Dallas?
I don't know. I don't either. Okay. It says who shot it's Shea on Dallas the first time. No way.
I learned this lesson more than once. It aired it originally aired in 1980. The person who pulled the trigger was revealed to be Kristen Shepherd. No. She was JR's scheming sister-in-law who shot him in a fit of anger.
So who did it the second time? I don't Because here's what happened. Ratings were slumping, and they were like, you know what worked really well was when JR got shot. Let's bring that back. Let's do that again.
Yeah. Who shot him this time? So did he not he he must not have died? I've never watched it. I don't know.
1980? That was before I was born. What I'm saying. And not that you can't go back and watch reruns of Dallas if you want, but I don't. I was just looking at there's a 17 this is from BuzzFeed.
Oh, I was gonna say 17. There's one deaths. From Buffy the Vampire Slayer, one from Bones, Orange is the New Black, scrubs. That was a good episode. I remember that episode.
And then there's one from Was that when, when JD had that patient that he liked a lot? There was a lot of patients that he liked a lot to die. Know. Yeah. That's true.
Was, doctor Cox's brother-in-law Oh, okay. Yeah. Or his friend, and it was played by Brendan Fraser. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was sad. Yeah.
And then this these are the top five. There's one from Futurama. Oh, good. So a cartoon character death. Oh, Dan from, Roseanne.
Oh. I forgot. He had a heart attack, didn't he? I don't know. Or did he die?
I don't know. Did he die? Well, that could be in the new one in the in the Conners. I really don't know. I don't know.
I was just looking at a a list on Hollywood Reporter, and they've got a couple of Game of Thrones ones in here, one, from Breaking Bad, Mad Men, one from Two and a Half Men, The Walking Dead made the list, Sopranos made the list, Lost, there's Charlie. Desperate Housewives, there's a Grey's Anatomy one in there, an ER one. There's one from, there's a Grey's Anatomy again, a charmed. The OC, MASH had one. The OC.
Time out. Yeah. Watch The OC. Who died in that? Let me scroll back up.
Marissa. Oh, yeah. That's fine. Oh, shit. She was annoying.
I'm not sad by that. That's funny. The OC. That show is so dumb. No one calls it that.
Do you guys wanna go to The OC? Yeah. We're from the OC. We need, we need, more places around here to go by the county name. Like, Orange County.
Right? The OC? No one calls it that. Like, where are you from? BC.
Yeah. The Bonneville County? Yeah. Or Oregon. Or Bingham?
Which one? No one calls it that. The BC. The BOC. What's that one?
The BOC. Bonneville County. Oh, you're just adding the 0 to clarify which from Bannock County, you'd be the back. And if you are from Bingham County, you'd be the bit. Okay.
Well, that'll never stick. That'll never ever happen. I'm gonna make it so Nope. Would you like to play a game? Yeah.
It's called would you rather this or that. Really a game. I mean, it is it is kinda. Okay. Would you rather swim in a pool or swim in ocean?
It's that simple. It's that simple. Pool or ocean? Taking the ocean. Why?
And what ocean? Pacific. Okay. Not Indian? No.
Okay. No. I am taking the, the Pacific Ocean. Yeah. Okay.
But I want it in Central America. Okay. You want it closer to the Equator? Yes. Why?
Because then it's tropical. Then it's warmer. And But it's, like how about Jocko Beach in Costa Rica? That sounds good. Sadly specific.
It's a fine beach. I'll go search for my, my glasses I lost when I was in the eleventh grade, and I was, hanging out there for a week. And I got rolled over in a wave, and my glasses disappeared. Okay. See what the glasses?
For the rest of the trip, I had to wear my prescription sunglasses all day and night. Oh, you were like the real Thomas j. He can't see without his glasses. No. I know the joke.
You looked at me like you didn't know. I did. I mean, he didn't wear sunglasses when he didn't have his glasses. He was deceased. And anyway.
I get it. So there's that. Okay. That's what I'd pick. I would pick swimming in I'm gonna pick the ocean too.
Costa Rican Ocean. Because I'd rather be in the ocean Yeah. Than a pool? Yeah. I mean, I'll take a pool, but I'm not gonna have as much fun as I would if I was in the ocean.
In the ocean. Body surfing. That's so fun. Just bobbing around. Yeah.
I'm just gonna do that. Oh, here comes a wave. Yeah. Woah. Oh, look.
I can touch the ground, and now I can't. And now I can touch the ground, and now I can't. That's that's what it's like moving in the ocean. Shark and everybody panics, and then you all run to safety. Yeah.
And I can't touch the ocean, and then I can't. Or the you know what I'm saying. Anyway do. Yeah. Good pick.
Easy. Would you rather this or that? Are you a face up phone when it's sitting down or a face down phone when it's sitting down? Face up. Why?
Because I'm afraid I'm gonna scratch the screen. If you turn it face down? Uh-huh. I'm a face down person for, like, the same reason. I just got a BlackBerry phone.
I had it sitting face up on the arm of a couch in our apartment on McKinley. This is a long time ago. And, something fell off of a shelf on the wall and landed directly on, like, the brand new Blackberry pearl that I had got and cracked the screen. I remember that. Very, very new.
So, that sort of trauma response helped me, to turn it upside down. But there's actually, some information here. This is, an article on CNET, that I was just reading through about why your phone should always be face down when it's on a table. Okay. And they give, like, three reasons.
One, it can help you save, your phone battery. There are there because when, the phone is in the dark, it won't, like, light up and do notifications and stuff. It'll just stay there. And then when you pick it up and look, the notifications will come through. Okay.
So, you know, if that's important to you, you can save some battery. It also shows that you pay attention. If you keep your phone face down, it's a good social etiquette thing. Because you're not gonna look at it. Because you're not paying attention to your phone.
You're paying attention to the people that you're with. I get that. Your phone is not face up. Yes. I was just doing a test.
Yeah. Because I put my phone face down, and then when I pick it up, it's like, oh, it lights back up. Correct. So I was gonna do a test to see if I could get it while it was still black screen, and I did. Wow.
So fast. That's like opening the fridge to see if the light's still turned on, nerd. It says eye contact is one of the most powerful forms of human connection, and neuroscience research indicates that when two people make direct eye contact, their brain activity begins to synchronize, supporting more effective communication and increasing empathy. So, if having a phone around even dimly lit is a distraction, it can it can break that, which is, which is not good. Thirdly, it minimizes your phone's present, present, presence.
My phone takes up too much space in my life. I mean, quite literally. Someone said my phone is bigger than it needs to be. Yeah. That's been especially true since I upgraded from a mini normal sized phone to the new, bigger screened phones.
And having, your smartphone face down can keep it from being such a dominant presence, for you. So I agree with that. There you go. So those were three reasons that you should keep it face down, when it's on the table or, countertop or whatever. Yeah.
I'll probably just keep it face up. Okay. Not trying to change your mind. Just telling you the benefits of it. And, also, if stuff falls off the shelf and hits your phone, it's not gonna break your screen.
I get that. But Which is a big deal. I'll probably just keep it face up. Alrighty. Sounds good.
You do you. I will. K. Well, that's gonna do it for the show. Hey.
We're not gonna be here tomorrow. That's right. We will be out of the studio tomorrow. So you'll get a best of show tomorrow, and then we'll be back in the studio on Monday. Let you know all about our weekend adventures and all that fun.
