Episode Transcript
[00:00:00] Speaker A: Alrighty. Alrighty, everybody. Another week of the human podcast. We are back.
[00:00:06] Speaker B: I mean, we're getting closer to routine.
[00:00:09] Speaker A: I mean, I. I try my best. You know, Sometimes people are sick, sometimes people can't do it.
[00:00:16] Speaker C: Yeah. Plus, once a month I have a class that kind of coincides with the time we do it, so it sucks.
[00:00:22] Speaker A: You have a class?
[00:00:24] Speaker C: Yeah, every month.
[00:00:26] Speaker A: Is it like. Like, what kind of glass?
[00:00:28] Speaker C: Well, it's not really class.
It's called a sound bath.
And like, you know those big crystal kind of drums, kind of like they're bowls.
[00:00:41] Speaker A: Yeah, I know what a sound bath is.
[00:00:43] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, we.
[00:00:45] Speaker A: We have.
[00:00:45] Speaker C: So amazing. And like, it's really weird because, like, sometimes I can feel the sound in my chest and, like, you know how I get cars, not necessarily car sick, but plane sick. It makes me really sick. Well, the big bowl, the biggest bowl, can actually make me feel like I'm gonna vomit.
So I have to. I have to pay attention to where I'm sitting in congruency to it, but I freaking feel it. And it's amazing.
[00:01:17] Speaker B: It's like when, like, my subs are turned up all the way and I feel like my chest bones vibrate and I'm like, yeah, yeah, it's at.
[00:01:25] Speaker C: I know, right?
[00:01:29] Speaker B: Vibrations and pressure are the best things.
[00:01:32] Speaker A: Yeah. I mean, yeah.
Like, vibration is usually how, you know, you can cause a lot of things to happen.
You know, you can break a glass with vibration.
Like, women can sing at glasses and they're like, ugh. And they kill themselves.
[00:01:53] Speaker C: Yep.
[00:01:54] Speaker B: Before or after the glass breaks?
[00:01:57] Speaker A: No, the glass kills itself. Oh, Jesus.
[00:02:00] Speaker B: Well, I didn't know.
[00:02:02] Speaker A: My wife is over here being dark as fuck. It's like you sing at a glass and it breaks and make. Oh. Even the glasses don't like my singing. I guess I kill myself.
Damn.
[00:02:11] Speaker B: Well, no, I thought the glass breaks and then like, it breaks apart like an explosion. And then like a sharp piece, like her neck as it, like, flows by.
[00:02:19] Speaker A: That be such a up way to.
[00:02:21] Speaker B: That's what I thought you meant.
[00:02:23] Speaker A: Like, hits her vocal cords and she can't sing anymore. Oh, no.
[00:02:28] Speaker C: Oh, my gosh. My favorite scene. Like, not necessarily my favorite scene, but, like, one of the cooler scenes that I like in a ghost movie is Ghost Ship and the Law, I guess there's like a string lights of wine throughout around the venue. And for some reason it gets all pulled up.
Like the machine pulls it and do it like they die that way by being cut in half by the string lights.
[00:03:01] Speaker A: There's another movie. Yeah, sorry.
[00:03:05] Speaker C: I Was during that time, for some stupid reason, I decided to connect headphones that I just found because I couldn't find my other ones so that I could hear you guys.
[00:03:16] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, in the middle of your sentence, it, like, changed, like, everything. It's fine.
[00:03:21] Speaker C: Oh, it did.
Does it sound good or.
[00:03:24] Speaker B: No?
[00:03:25] Speaker A: It sounds like you're talking through. Like it's a little muffled, like a toilet paper roll.
[00:03:32] Speaker C: Does it sound better now since I've got them in?
[00:03:35] Speaker B: That's what she said.
[00:03:39] Speaker A: No, it's the same.
[00:03:41] Speaker B: Oh, my God.
[00:03:43] Speaker A: It sounds like a. A 1950s radio person. Like, all right, say, you know, and like, it's like War of the Worlds type stuff.
[00:03:54] Speaker B: That is such a good book, though.
[00:03:56] Speaker C: Actual headphones.
[00:03:58] Speaker B: Well, apparently people, like, legitimately kill themselves because they thought it was happening.
[00:04:03] Speaker A: I doubt it.
[00:04:04] Speaker B: Yeah.
No, when they were first broadcasting it on the radio, people were like, this is happening.
[00:04:11] Speaker A: Let me see. Did people kill themselves during the War of the Worlds broadcast?
Did Orson Welles, you know, blah, blah, blah.
[00:04:23] Speaker B: I was lied to by my mother.
[00:04:28] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:04:28] Speaker A: In most cases, not real.
Okay.
[00:04:32] Speaker B: I'm never. I don't know why I'm continuously surprised about all the lies my mother told me that I believed blindly.
She told me people killed themselves, but either way, it's a. Okay. All the movies suck. But the book is so good.
[00:04:46] Speaker A: There's a Tom Cruise movie. I think it was Tom Cruise.
That was pretty good.
[00:04:51] Speaker B: No, it wasn't.
I've yet to come.
I have yet to come across a movie that has done it justice.
[00:04:59] Speaker A: It was pretty good.
[00:05:00] Speaker B: No.
Did you ever actually read it?
[00:05:03] Speaker A: War of the Worlds? No, I don't read.
[00:05:05] Speaker B: No, no, I've read the book, and it's good. Okay. It's like reading, like, a Jules Verne book. And if you don't like that writing style, you're not going to get it.
[00:05:14] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:05:16] Speaker A: I think one of my favorite movies is the Jerk with Steve Martin.
[00:05:24] Speaker B: I still don't know what you're talking about.
[00:05:26] Speaker A: Oh, we have to watch the Jerk. Holy.
What?
[00:05:31] Speaker B: No.
[00:05:32] Speaker A: Why don't you want to watch a movie?
[00:05:33] Speaker B: I don't want to watch another Adam Sandler movie.
[00:05:35] Speaker A: It's not Adam Sandler, okay? Not at all.
[00:05:38] Speaker B: Nothing against Adam Sandler, but I've seen so many of them with you. His.
[00:05:42] Speaker A: I. Okay. I love Adam Sandler.
[00:05:44] Speaker B: Like, he's a care. Like, he's. He plays characters the way what's her face is always like the bad guy, but she does a good job of it.
[00:05:51] Speaker A: Now I have to see where, like, what service the jerk is playing on.
[00:05:56] Speaker B: You're not using the Roku app.
[00:05:58] Speaker A: I'm just using my phone.
[00:06:00] Speaker B: Because the Roku app will tell you.
[00:06:02] Speaker A: Well, yeah, so we'll Google always.
Yeah, it's fine. We'll just, like, watch it on prime, like, to, like, pay us money to watch.
[00:06:11] Speaker B: Okay, I need a synthesis.
Sit in those. They will.
[00:06:15] Speaker A: Okay, so the synopsis of the Jerk is Steve Martin is a white guy, and he was raised by a Southern all black family.
And so the movie starts out, I was raised a poor black child, and it's just Steve Martin.
And he's like. And he can't dance, he can't keep rhythm, nothing like that. And then, like, by the time he's grown up, they, like, finally break the news to him that, you know, he is actually white. And he was born white. He'll never, you know, be black. He's like, oh, no, mama. I thought I was gonna darken up. And so he has to, like, go out into the world to find his way.
[00:06:57] Speaker B: It kind of sounds like the sequel to Ace Ventura.
[00:07:00] Speaker A: It's way better than Ace Ventura.
[00:07:02] Speaker B: But it's a sequel.
[00:07:03] Speaker A: It's a comedy. Like, then entire thing, like, ace Ventura is fucking hilarious, too.
[00:07:07] Speaker B: Yeah. Although I didn't find it that funny. I'm sorry.
[00:07:10] Speaker A: The. The rhino scene, phenomenal.
[00:07:13] Speaker B: That was gross as fuck.
[00:07:15] Speaker A: My favorite.
[00:07:16] Speaker B: It was nasty.
[00:07:17] Speaker A: Hilarious. Oh, look, the rhino's giving birth.
I mean, if, you know, you know.
[00:07:26] Speaker B: It was gross, and I didn't find it funny. I'm sorry, babe. Okay, well, no, Bertha's disgusting.
[00:07:32] Speaker A: Yeah. But it's a sweaty dude that, like, his fans.
[00:07:34] Speaker B: That doesn't make it better.
[00:07:36] Speaker A: And, like, the nasty escape hatch, like, broke, so he had to, like, crawl through.
[00:07:41] Speaker B: Reproduction is nasty.
[00:07:44] Speaker A: It's fine.
But this. This is technically, technically the Thanksgiving episode.
[00:07:52] Speaker B: Oh, I guess it is.
[00:07:53] Speaker A: Yeah. I know.
Like, I. I even, like, wrote, like, you know, five lines of notes over here.
Like, I legitimately, legitimately, 100% believed that this last Thursday was Thanksgiving, like, for a month.
Like, Like a hundred percent.
You know, you couldn't tell me otherwise, like, it me up. Like, I. Like, this last Wednesday, I. I went to, like, you know, one of my customers, and I'm going in. I'm like, hey, Sonia. Yeah. Like, are. Are you going to, you know, be closed for, you know, tomorrow?
And she's like, look, look, like, why?
Why would we close tomorrow?
That's a weird thing to say, like, for Thanksgiving, you know, like, thank, you know, gobble gobble day.
She looks at me like, she pulls the calendar off the wall.
And she's like, we are here.
Like, pointing out, like, on a map, like, we are here.
That is there.
[00:09:12] Speaker B: I was so confused when I came home Tuesday evening and you're like, hey, babe, I got food for Thanksgiving. We're gonna do surf and turf. And I was like, okay. I mean, it's kind of early, but okay, babe.
[00:09:27] Speaker A: No one told me. Zero people told me.
And, like, I, like, I'm like, at work, I'm like, hey, you know, on Wednesday before Thanksgiving, you know, make sure, you know, like, giving instructions. You know, I'm like, looking at the schedule, I'm like, oh, that's weird. They fucking scheduled everyone to work on Thanksgiving, silly.
[00:09:47] Speaker B: Really?
[00:09:47] Speaker A: Them?
[00:09:48] Speaker B: You did say that you were working on Thanksgiving, and I was like, that's super weird.
[00:09:53] Speaker A: I am still working on Thanksgiving. Yes.
[00:09:56] Speaker B: You're driving home.
[00:09:57] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:09:58] Speaker B: That doesn't count as a day off.
[00:10:01] Speaker A: No. Yeah, I don't get a day off.
I don't get days off for shits.
[00:10:05] Speaker B: Do you at least get, like, overtime for.
[00:10:06] Speaker A: I get double time. Yeah, that's pretty dope.
But, yeah, I mean, like, non stop. Like.
And then I saw the calendar, and then I had to go into my truck and grab my phone.
[00:10:24] Speaker B: Anyway, I was so confused when you brought the food.
[00:10:29] Speaker A: You didn't say a damn thing.
[00:10:31] Speaker B: Well, why would I?
Why would I?
I'm not going to question your decisions on buying food.
[00:10:42] Speaker A: Like, yeah.
[00:10:42] Speaker B: Especially when it's going to be delicious food. But I was still like, it's a week early. It's gonna sit in the fridge.
[00:10:48] Speaker A: Yeah, you could have told me. Yeah, it's in a week from now.
[00:10:52] Speaker B: I didn't think I had to inform you of your own fallacies.
[00:10:56] Speaker A: Now, I firmly, firmly believe, because, like, the entire time growing up, you know, this is like a Mandela effect for me personally.
[00:11:08] Speaker B: Thanksgiving or butterfly?
[00:11:10] Speaker A: Mandela.
[00:11:10] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:11:12] Speaker A: From Nelson Mandela. You know, because everyone thought he died in prison. Then he got out.
[00:11:17] Speaker B: But, like, everyone thought the dude from Blue's Clues died.
[00:11:20] Speaker A: When he didn't, he just fucking. Like. There wasn't Internet back then.
You know, it wasn't like a.
[00:11:28] Speaker B: Okay, go back to your Mandela effect.
[00:11:29] Speaker A: But growing up, it was always the third Thursday of November.
[00:11:35] Speaker B: Yes, it's on the third Thursday of November.
[00:11:39] Speaker A: No, it's on the fourth.
[00:11:42] Speaker B: Pull it up.
[00:11:45] Speaker A: It is literally in a week, and we're on the 22nd.
[00:11:48] Speaker B: No, I do not get paid. I don't have a three paycheck month.
[00:11:51] Speaker A: One, two, three, four.
[00:11:54] Speaker B: Oh, wait. Okay, okay, I understand. Where. Okay, I understand your confusion. I am Also confused. But I knew what day it was.
[00:12:06] Speaker A: The third Thursday of every November is Thanksgiving.
[00:12:11] Speaker B: Wait, then why is it the fourth Thursday this month?
Google it. Why is this the wrong Thursday?
[00:12:16] Speaker A: It's not. Apparently, it's always been the fourth Thursday.
[00:12:20] Speaker B: No, it's always been the third.
[00:12:22] Speaker A: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
[00:12:25] Speaker B: It's always been the third.
[00:12:26] Speaker A: Thank you.
[00:12:27] Speaker C: No, isn't it the 26th? It's been the fourth week.
[00:12:31] Speaker B: Right.
[00:12:31] Speaker A: It's on the 27th.
But, like, I distinctly remember the third Thursday. That's how I remembered it. You know, the fucking alliteration of it. Third Thursday.
[00:12:43] Speaker B: How am I right, but still wrong?
[00:12:45] Speaker C: I'm going to look this the fuck up.
[00:12:48] Speaker A: I.
It blows my fucking mind. I'm like, my.
[00:12:52] Speaker B: Because I know, like, the Jewish year shit. No.
[00:12:56] Speaker A: It has been like, I looked in the calendar, you know, it's like, you know, when was Thanksgiving?
[00:13:04] Speaker C: Says it was in 2000, in 1941.
So federal legislation by United U. S. Congress formalizes Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday in November.
[00:13:18] Speaker B: Wow. This is. Okay. This is like some Easter where it moves around. I swear to God.
[00:13:23] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah.
Thank you.
I'm glad I'm not.
[00:13:26] Speaker B: The Internet is immediate. Like, I only had to type in is Thanksgiving, and it prompted the 3rd of November.
[00:13:33] Speaker A: Yeah, the 3rd Thursday. Yeah, this.
[00:13:36] Speaker B: Who lied to me?
Who lied to me?
[00:13:41] Speaker A: I feel like no one lied. And we are just in a different fucking universe now.
[00:13:45] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah, no, clearly we glitched across different matrices. Matrices. Okay. Okay. I'm literally looking at 2024 to be like the.
[00:13:54] Speaker A: Yeah, you're. Trust me, I've already done it.
[00:13:57] Speaker B: Oh, my God.
[00:13:58] Speaker A: I already.
[00:13:59] Speaker B: How am I right and wrong at the same time?
[00:14:01] Speaker A: Did it.
[00:14:02] Speaker B: No.
[00:14:02] Speaker C: I don't know why you guys think that.
[00:14:04] Speaker B: Oh, my God, it's my mother again.
[00:14:07] Speaker A: No. Like, it was everything.
[00:14:09] Speaker C: I've always known that it's been the fourth because that's my. My grandma's birthday is November 28th.
So, like, we usually know when Thanksgiving is. That.
[00:14:20] Speaker A: That this is how I remembered it growing up as a kid. The third Thursday. The. The third Thursday, you know, because it makes sense. I'm like, oh, the third Thursday is Thanksgiving. Tha, tha, tha. And it.
[00:14:33] Speaker B: Boom.
[00:14:33] Speaker A: It flows.
[00:14:34] Speaker B: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Okay, you may. This is obviously. AI. You make. You may think Thanksgiving was on the third Thursday because President Franklin D. Roosevelt moved the date from the third Thursday in 1939 in an effort to boost the holiday shopping, a change that lasted for a few years before officially being changed back to the fourth Thursday by Congress in 1941.
[00:15:00] Speaker A: Yeah, but I wasn't.
[00:15:01] Speaker B: It was moved.
[00:15:03] Speaker A: I wasn't around back then.
[00:15:05] Speaker C: They weren't around.
[00:15:06] Speaker B: Okay, but like, then why did we know that? Babe.
[00:15:11] Speaker A: Okay, I grew up. It was the third Thursday for Thanksgiving.
[00:15:16] Speaker B: Oh. Because many people remembered it as a time as the third Thursday.
And so it became a well known phenomenon, also referred to as the Mandela effect.
Okay? So for our parents, at one point it was on the third, and then it was moved to the fourth, but we weren't.
[00:15:34] Speaker A: But it's not around in the 1940s.
[00:15:37] Speaker B: I don't fucking.
[00:15:37] Speaker A: Okay, he is not that old.
[00:15:39] Speaker B: Okay? So my grandma thought it was on the third, and then she told my dad, okay, whatever grandparent told whatever parent I had that it was on the third. And so I was informed by said parent that it was on the third. Okay. President Rovadel fucked us.
[00:15:53] Speaker A: I don't think so.
[00:15:54] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:15:54] Speaker A: I kind of like Teddy Roosevelt.
[00:15:56] Speaker B: Okay, I also like him, but confusion.
[00:16:04] Speaker A: I mean, like, the. The president that I don't like is jfk, because he fucking, you know, went around, took everyone's gold and he's like, hey, private ownership of gold.
[00:16:13] Speaker B: Wasn't he the guy who didn't put nuclear bombs on Cuba?
[00:16:16] Speaker A: He's also the guy that got assassinated, too.
[00:16:19] Speaker B: I know that part. I don't know any of our presidents. I'm not gonna lie. They're all figureheads. So I don't care to be informed.
[00:16:26] Speaker A: I mean, now you have to be informed.
[00:16:29] Speaker B: What the fuck is the Mandela effect?
[00:16:31] Speaker A: The Mandela effect is when Nelson Mandela got out of prison. A lot of people, you know, distinctly remember him dying in prison. He was like a African leader, I believe, and he got out of prison like, wait, didn't he die? And like, it fucking fucked with a lot of people. Same thing with the Berenstain Bears. And the Berenstain Bears.
[00:16:55] Speaker B: The what? Say that again.
[00:16:56] Speaker A: The Berenstain Bears. And the Berenstain Bears.
[00:16:59] Speaker B: The first one's, right?
[00:17:01] Speaker A: The Berenstain.
[00:17:02] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:17:03] Speaker A: I grew up with the Berenstein.
[00:17:05] Speaker B: No, it's Stane. Why would you use a long E when you can use a long A?
[00:17:09] Speaker A: Because it's the Jewish name.
[00:17:11] Speaker B: No, because I hate E's. If it can have a long A, it's gonna be have a long A.
It's BAE and not B.
[00:17:17] Speaker A: And I remember, like, there was a Fruit of the Loom had a cornucopia in it.
[00:17:22] Speaker B: Yes, it did.
No, it didn't. No, no, no, no. Another brand had the cornucopia no, it.
[00:17:28] Speaker A: Was Fruit of the Loom.
[00:17:29] Speaker B: No, it was always. No, Fruit of the Loom had grapes. Someone else had the cornucopia.
[00:17:34] Speaker A: Fruit of the Loom. Cornucopia.
[00:17:36] Speaker B: No, it has grapes.
[00:17:40] Speaker C: Yeah.
There was like a theory that it was cornucopia, but people think it was just some knockoff that became, that was getting sold, when really it's just been fruit this whole time and not a cornucopia.
[00:17:57] Speaker B: I don't like cornucopias. They make me think of my mom.
[00:18:00] Speaker C: Quite honestly, I thought that it was a cornucopia too.
[00:18:04] Speaker A: So like, like there, there's people that have, like remade it the way that we remember it, you know, and it's like, oh, yeah, Third day, third Thanksgiving. Thank you. Right here in R. Mandela.
[00:18:19] Speaker B: I literally just read this off the Internet.
Yes.
Oh my God, you're gonna believe Reddit over your wife?
Hand me my alcohol.
[00:18:31] Speaker A: Thank you.
[00:18:32] Speaker B: Okay, no, do this before I forget. I'm mad at you.
[00:18:34] Speaker A: Random stranger online.
Yeah, like, I'm on Mandela Effect. Holy shit.
[00:18:41] Speaker B: Okay, what else is on here?
[00:18:43] Speaker A: Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, you know.
[00:18:49] Speaker B: Okay, what's that? Mandela effect? Were there. Wait, was there only six dwarves?
[00:18:54] Speaker A: No, it was a mirror, mirror on the wall.
She wasn't looking for the queen. Evil Queen was not looking for Snow White.
[00:19:03] Speaker B: No, she was looking for her own praise.
[00:19:09] Speaker A: Like, do you remember when planes were loud?
[00:19:12] Speaker B: What?
[00:19:13] Speaker C: They still are.
[00:19:14] Speaker A: No, like, do you remember, like back in the day when a plane flew over your head?
[00:19:20] Speaker B: Uh huh.
[00:19:21] Speaker A: You had to, like, shut up because you couldn't hear, like, a conversation.
[00:19:25] Speaker B: I mean, if it's low enough to the ground.
[00:19:26] Speaker A: Yeah, no, anywhere. Anywhere in the United States of America. It could be at, you know, cruising altitude and, you know.
[00:19:36] Speaker B: Can'T you hear higher noises as a kid? Anyway.
[00:19:41] Speaker A: Well, now planes are quieter.
[00:19:43] Speaker B: Of course planes are quieter.
They've made all kinds of stuff to fix that.
Okay, so the Mandela effect is where, like a bunch of people misbelieve something and then. Is that what that means?
[00:19:59] Speaker A: Oh, people are, you know, what is the definition?
Okay, let me get the definition.
What is the definition of the Mandela effect?
The Mandela Effect is a phenomenon where a large group of people share a specific false memory of a past event, fact or detail. It was coined by the paranormal researcher Fiona Broome in 2010 after she discovered multiple people mistakenly believed that Nelson Mandela had died in prison in the 1980s when he was actually released and became president, but before dying in 2013.
Examples include remembering the Baron stain bears spelled with an E instead of an A. Or the Monopoly man having a monocle.
[00:20:51] Speaker B: Wait, what?
[00:20:52] Speaker A: The Monopoly man doesn't have a monocle.
[00:20:58] Speaker B: Well, I'm kind of sad now.
[00:21:01] Speaker C: I thought he did.
[00:21:02] Speaker B: Okay, he's kind of less cool now.
Wait. Okay, this is, like, where everyone says, like, where, like, they're like, scotty, be me up. Even though that was never, ever said.
[00:21:15] Speaker A: Oh, there's never a jiffy.
[00:21:18] Speaker B: Wait, what?
[00:21:19] Speaker A: There's never a jiffy.
[00:21:20] Speaker B: What do you mean?
[00:21:21] Speaker A: No, there is never a jiffy. Peanut butter.
It's only jiffy.
[00:21:29] Speaker B: Okay. No, Jif is a fucking what?
[00:21:32] Speaker A: There's never a jiffy. Peanut butter didn't exist.
[00:21:35] Speaker B: Where the fuck did the white come from?
[00:21:39] Speaker A: Yeah, you know.
[00:21:40] Speaker B: Okay, I need. Okay, I need more belief shaken. What's the noise? Where, like, a plate breaks?
[00:21:48] Speaker A: What?
[00:21:50] Speaker B: You know, when the plate breaks.
[00:21:53] Speaker A: I don't know.
[00:21:54] Speaker B: I can't help you with that then.
Wait, what the fuck?
[00:21:59] Speaker A: George? Curious. Curious George never had a tail.
[00:22:02] Speaker B: But he's a monkey.
[00:22:03] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:22:04] Speaker B: Was he, like, docked as a baby?
[00:22:07] Speaker A: No, he was, like, found in the jungle by.
[00:22:10] Speaker B: You didn't understand what I asked?
[00:22:12] Speaker A: Yeah. No, he was not. He was a wild fucking monkey.
[00:22:17] Speaker B: Okay, what's this one?
[00:22:18] Speaker A: Febreze.
You thought it was Febreze. It was just.
[00:22:23] Speaker B: What's the. Wait, there's.
[00:22:25] Speaker A: There's only one E in it all. Like.
[00:22:27] Speaker B: Well, that makes it for Brez.
[00:22:31] Speaker A: Yep.
Oscar Meyer.
[00:22:36] Speaker B: Okay, that. I. I always knew it was Oxford Mayor, because again, I like long A's over long E's.
[00:22:42] Speaker A: I wish I was an Oscar Meyer wiener.
[00:22:52] Speaker C: Yeah, he wasn't. Wasn't that really a saying, though?
[00:22:55] Speaker A: Yeah, of course. It was a song.
There's no T in Skechers.
[00:23:00] Speaker B: Why would there be a T in Skechers?
[00:23:03] Speaker A: Sketch.
S, C, T, C, H. But that's not a drawing.
[00:23:08] Speaker B: It. Shoes.
Wait. Shut up. Wait, what?
[00:23:15] Speaker A: Yeah, what?
[00:23:18] Speaker B: No, Pikachu's tail is black. No, there's a noise.
[00:23:21] Speaker A: It's never black.
[00:23:22] Speaker B: What the.
Okay, I don't even watch Pokemon, and I'm offended.
Okay, what's wrong with Kit Kat?
[00:23:28] Speaker C: Honestly, like, there's a theory going around.
[00:23:31] Speaker B: There's never been a hyphen in KitKat. Like, Courtney, you go that.
[00:23:36] Speaker C: They're just like. Like, trying to see what we'll believe if they mess with little things here and there.
[00:23:44] Speaker B: Of course. It's an experiment on society. I fully believe this.
[00:23:48] Speaker A: But, you know, here. Here's the. Here's the whole thing. It's like, I remember this. Like, I bring it up and other people are like, holy shit, I remember that, too. Like the movie Shazam. I watched that.
[00:24:00] Speaker B: This almost kind of sounds like hive mind shit.
[00:24:04] Speaker A: You know, here's what I believe, you know, and this might be, like, some crazy, but the large hydron collider pretty much started up in, like, 2010, and that's where all this, you know, started happening. You know, what if it, you know, started, you know, shattering, you know, the universe into a bunch of different universes, and, you know, now you can just jump between and tiny little fucking, you know, imperceptible differences happen. It's like, boom, this happens here. Boom, this happens here. Boom, this happens here.
[00:24:40] Speaker B: I am not mad at your theory.
[00:24:43] Speaker A: You know, nothing of real fucking consequence.
[00:24:51] Speaker B: Shall I get a towel?
[00:24:52] Speaker A: Just use the thing right there you're sitting on. Yeah, there you go.
[00:24:58] Speaker B: Okay. So I was watching this really cool thing talking about, like, time travel, and this one person was talking about, like, how time travel. Like, he wouldn't do it because that means you died. Because if your body's dematerialized and then rematerialized, haven't you died and now it's a new body.
[00:25:18] Speaker A: Same thing with the. If you can regenerate. Like, if you get your arm chopped off and it regenerates.
[00:25:23] Speaker B: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Okay, so stray. You know how much I play it. So when you reach up to Midtown, there's a robot you can go talk to. And the robot's like, if I replace my arm one day and I replace another piece the next day and replace another place once I'm fully replaced, am I still the same robot?
[00:25:40] Speaker A: Yeah, it's Ship of Theseus.
[00:25:41] Speaker B: Okay. And my theory is that basically what happened was there was, like, a plague or some sort, and so the humans uploaded themselves into the robots, but now the robots have been replaced so many times, they've forgotten that they were once human.
[00:25:54] Speaker A: Yeah, of course. That's the whole point of the game.
[00:25:57] Speaker B: I love straight, but.
[00:26:00] Speaker A: Yeah, no, it's. It's.
[00:26:00] Speaker B: I also appreciate the reference they did in Taskmaster.
[00:26:04] Speaker A: Yeah, it's the Ship of Theseus. It's like, if you have a ship and you replace each board, you know, one by one, is it still the same ship?
[00:26:11] Speaker B: Of course not.
Okay. Okay, babe, you know how, like, I'm, like, waiting until I'm 34, right? So once in. Okay, I have no idea if this is real or not, but I once heard that, like, after seven years, every single cell in your body has replaced itself. And so from my perspective, Once I hitch 34 it'll been seven years since I was last physically touched by my parents and my brother, and my body will be completely new and free of them.
[00:26:39] Speaker A: Your eyes don't replace.
[00:26:40] Speaker B: Okay, well, my eyes can go themselves because I hate them. But the point remains. I am no longer the same person.
[00:26:47] Speaker A: Your skin, like, replaces, like, every 30 days.
[00:26:50] Speaker B: I know. I'm talking about every single cell in my body, not just my skin.
Every single cell in my body counts.
So, yes, no.
If I dematerialize, only to rematerialize in another time, I have indeed died.
And so my conscious at that point can indeed be called into question.
[00:27:11] Speaker A: I mean, I'd be willing to do it. Be fine.
[00:27:13] Speaker B: Why would you time travel?
[00:27:16] Speaker A: Just to see if I could.
[00:27:19] Speaker B: And what do you want to see?
[00:27:21] Speaker A: See. And I have, like, a theory on time travel, too.
[00:27:25] Speaker B: Let's hear it.
[00:27:26] Speaker A: You can only time travel during your consciousness to your own body.
[00:27:34] Speaker B: So it can't travel beyond before you were born?
[00:27:37] Speaker A: No.
[00:27:38] Speaker B: Continue.
[00:27:39] Speaker A: You know, you can, you know, time travel any time in your life, and if you do something different while you are in control, it fractures the universe and then, you know, creates your, you know, Mandela effect.
[00:27:55] Speaker B: Well, no, if you do that, you're just stepping into a different dimension. From my perspective.
[00:27:59] Speaker A: Yeah, no, you're stepping into a whole nother universe.
[00:28:01] Speaker B: Because there's a total of nine dimensions, right?
[00:28:03] Speaker A: There's way more than that.
[00:28:04] Speaker B: But I thought it was nine.
[00:28:06] Speaker A: But, like, you know, imagine like a, you know, a tree growing. You know, you have one line, one. One lane, you know, one, you know, branch coming up, and then it splits.
And so you can jump between any of these two, and each time you change something, it splits again. Split, split, splits. And then you have, you know, a crazy tree. And then you can go to any of these points and boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
And sometimes it ends early, and sometimes it keeps on going.
And so you can travel between any of these in your entire life and create as big of a tree as you want.
[00:28:50] Speaker B: Or you can prune yourself to only existing in one lifetime.
[00:28:55] Speaker A: And sometimes a tree, you know, never gets off the ground.
[00:28:58] Speaker B: Like, meaning it dies like an infant. Yeah, well, obviously an infant isn't going to time travel.
[00:29:05] Speaker A: Yeah. But, you know, you don't need a special machine. You can just, like, kind of, you know, meditate and, you know, boom.
Kind of like, butterfly. Effective movie.
[00:29:18] Speaker B: That movie was weird.
[00:29:19] Speaker A: It was a very weird movie.
[00:29:20] Speaker B: Oh, my God. Like, when he burned his hand with the candles, I was like, what the fuck?
[00:29:26] Speaker A: Yeah, so I'm like, he was in.
[00:29:28] Speaker B: Jail at one point, right?
[00:29:30] Speaker A: Yeah. And they stabbed. He went back to in time and stabbed his hands.
[00:29:34] Speaker B: Did he end up with the girl in the end or did he chase her away?
[00:29:38] Speaker A: I think his sister also could time travel or whatever.
[00:29:41] Speaker B: And then, like, it was a weird movie.
[00:29:43] Speaker A: It was a very weird movie. Yeah.
But, you know, that's neither here nor there.
But it is also Black Friday.
[00:29:59] Speaker B: So sometimes if I know, like, black. So when. When Black Friday or Prime Day shows up, what I do is I make a. Like, a list of stuff that I really want, and then I take pictures of it to see if they actually go down in price. And some of them do, and some of them elevate the price to make it look like it's on sale.
[00:30:18] Speaker A: Yeah, of course.
[00:30:20] Speaker B: Like, so I only buy it if it's on sale.
If they faked me out, I'm gonna buy it another paycheck.
[00:30:27] Speaker A: Here's the thing. It's like, I'll just. I'll wait, like, if it's not something I need, like, right now.
Okay, yeah, let's. Let's let it ride, you know, but if it goes, you know, down in price or it has a really good deal with it, I'm like, okay, boom.
Pull the trigger then. And it's like, yeah, but other than that. Nah, like, there's a lot of things that I want. I'm like, I can't afford it. And it's like, but should I.
But I do enjoy Black Friday now that it's, like, been, like, spread out.
[00:31:11] Speaker B: Which I think is stupid.
[00:31:13] Speaker A: Like, I remember, you know, I used to work retail during Black Friday.
And, like, we would, like, you know, hold everyone out for, you know, make everyone out of the store, and then we, like, open up for, like.
Because, like, I think we're closed on Thanksgiving or something like that.
[00:31:33] Speaker B: I would hope so.
[00:31:36] Speaker A: And then it's like, boom, you know, like midnight. The doors open. Ah. And people come rushing in. People beat each other up in the parking lots.
People would fight over, you know, like, a $30 discount on a television.
[00:31:51] Speaker B: So basically a riot.
[00:31:52] Speaker A: Yes, 100%.
And I'm like, why the fuck are you all, you know, doing this shit? To save a couple bucks.
[00:32:01] Speaker B: Welcome to capitalism.
[00:32:04] Speaker A: And then I like. I remember, like, after, like, the, you know, end of the night, like, the manager, like, had, like, a big old meeting, like, in the middle of the store, too. Like, people are still shopping, you know, just like, everyone is like, thank you so much.
[00:32:19] Speaker B: We made a million dollars.
[00:32:22] Speaker A: I'm like, you know, like, oh, cool. That's probably a fat bonus for you.
[00:32:26] Speaker B: Oh my God. You know what pisses me off? So my new manager decided. So my manager, like, we have monthly meetings, which isn't a bad thing, but she insists on holding them at lunchtime, which fucking pisses me off. Because at lunchtime that's when a lot of people, they're, they're at their lunch and so they come by the clinic to pick up medicines and shit. Like that's their time to do stuff. And then we're closed. And I'm like, this is like literally the dumbest time to have a meeting. Everyone who's at their lunch needs to do stuff, needs to do it now. And now we're closed for an hour.
Like, am I wrong to be irritated by that?
[00:33:01] Speaker A: Well, I mean, during like your lunch.
[00:33:06] Speaker B: Okay, so lunchtime for us is from noon to one, okay? And we have a lot of foot traffic in that hour because people are on their lunch from their jobs that are coming by to pick up medicine for their pets.
We get a lot of foot traffic during that hour. And now once a month we're closed down. And like people are showing up and they're like, they're like knocking. They're, they're like, oh shit, they're closed. Like, like pulling on the door handle lightly, like very politely. But it's like all these people are coming on their lunch to pick up stuff and we're closed. And that irritates me. She could pick any other hour of the day to do it, but she.
[00:33:40] Speaker A: If she's making you do a meeting.
[00:33:43] Speaker B: During your lunch, oh no, we get paid for it.
[00:33:46] Speaker A: But okay, yeah, then never mind.
[00:33:48] Speaker B: But like she could hold it like the end of the day or something, but guess what?
[00:33:53] Speaker A: Labor laws require your employer to give you an uninterrupted at least half an hour of non work for lunch.
[00:34:01] Speaker B: That does not exist in the pet clinic.
[00:34:03] Speaker A: If you're working.
[00:34:03] Speaker C: You know, it's part of their contract is being on call.
[00:34:10] Speaker B: Like in theory we're supposed to have hour long lunches, but that never happens.
[00:34:15] Speaker A: They're only recording.
[00:34:16] Speaker B: Like a good day is a 45 lunch. But a lot of times sometimes our lunches are like 15, 20 minutes because we're just so busy and we're so understaffed right now.
Yep, we're so understaffed and yet we're still being blamed for not making enough money, even though it's literally out of our hands. We don't have enough doctors to make the amount of money they expect us to make.
But it's their job to find the doctors.
My company got rid of bonuses, and I'm still pissed off.
Wait, what? Yeah, it's three months later and I'm still pissed off.
[00:34:48] Speaker A: Do you have any, like, Black Friday sales, like, on, like, kitten supplies at your work?
[00:34:53] Speaker B: Ugh. So we don't have that. However, for Halloween, if you brought in your cat in a costume, you got 10% off. And then we're gonna do that the whole week of Christmas. If you bring your cat in in a Christmas costume, you get 10% off.
[00:35:07] Speaker A: That's cute.
[00:35:08] Speaker B: I'm so. I'm super excited. Cause it was so much fun on Halloween. Like, a kitty came in in a bat costume. He was black, and he came in a black bat costume. And then we had a kitty come in, like a hot dog. And then there was a taco cat, and then there was an angel kitty. And then there was like, some sort of like, snow princess. And then we had a kitty come in who was wearing, like, a lei and had, like, a grass skirt. And so basically we posted pictures of all the kitties and we had like a poll on Facebook and the hula cat won. And the hula cat was like, my favorite client. Cause his name is Chubby because he's like 18 pounds and he's super chubby. He's also diabetic now, but he's chubby and I was super happy to see him. And so he won. So when Chubby comes back for his next diabetic check, he's still getting 10% off because he won the Facebook pole.
[00:35:52] Speaker A: Oh, nice.
[00:35:55] Speaker B: His full name is Chubby Wubby.
And I love, like, sometimes clients let their cats name the kids, and it's hilarious.
[00:36:06] Speaker A: What?
[00:36:07] Speaker B: Yeah, sometimes clients let their, like 5 year old or 6 year olds name the cat and they give him like, the craziest name, like Trapezius, who's like a naked cat. And then their stop sign and there's pizza oven, which I heard on another Reddit story. Someone clearly named their cat after that as well. And then, let's see here. My favorite one is boy bui McStuffin muffin. And if you don't say the whole name, the client gets mad.
He's a Persian and he can't breathe and I. And he comes in like every four months for me to shave him because he's super mad and he won't let the owners brush him.
[00:36:55] Speaker A: Yeah, we don't have any Black Friday sales. We're a wholesaler.
[00:36:58] Speaker B: Well, obviously.
[00:36:59] Speaker A: Eat a dick, retail people.
[00:37:02] Speaker B: No, it's Retail people who do the sales.
[00:37:05] Speaker A: Yeah. No, they're buying a load of tires.
Like, more tires than they can possibly mount. I'm like, okay, yeah.
[00:37:13] Speaker B: Are they selling snow tigers even though it's not snowing?
[00:37:16] Speaker A: It's snowing.
[00:37:18] Speaker B: Not down here.
[00:37:19] Speaker A: Yeah. I go up to the mountains.
I go up to 11,000ft.
Like, let's see, what is the.
[00:37:29] Speaker B: It was supposed to snow.
[00:37:31] Speaker A: What is the elevation of Colorado Springs?
Yeah, we're at 6,000. I go another 5,000 up.
[00:37:38] Speaker B: Yeah. So almost double. So of course it's snowing up that high, but it's not snowing. Snowing down here.
[00:37:42] Speaker A: No good.
[00:37:42] Speaker B: Even though it should have been snowing since October, I don't.
[00:37:45] Speaker A: I don't want it to snow. The snow. The snow can eat my dick.
[00:37:48] Speaker B: I know.
[00:37:48] Speaker A: I have a whole, you know, 50 pounds of salt. You know, I'm ready for it, but, you know, now that I'm ready for it, you know, it's gonna off.
[00:37:57] Speaker B: If it snows at all this year, I'm gonna be super surprised.
[00:38:01] Speaker A: It will. Don't you worry.
[00:38:04] Speaker B: We didn't have a white Christmas last year.
[00:38:07] Speaker A: What are you talking about? You were here.
[00:38:10] Speaker B: It snowed on my birthday, but it didn't snow on Christmas.
[00:38:12] Speaker A: You're the white part of Christmas.
[00:38:14] Speaker B: Oh, shut up.
[00:38:16] Speaker C: Oh, my. That is actually really funny.
[00:38:21] Speaker B: Do you want to put up Christmas lights on our house this year?
[00:38:25] Speaker A: Do you want me to put up Christmas lights in the house?
[00:38:29] Speaker B: I'd have to buy the lights, and I'm still deciding which ones I want.
[00:38:33] Speaker C: Why don't you just do the doorway so that you can do it, Alex?
And the windows. Around the windows.
[00:38:44] Speaker B: I do stuff when my husband can do it for me.
[00:38:48] Speaker C: Oh, my God, you're so fun.
[00:38:50] Speaker B: I have a husband. He has duties.
[00:38:52] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, kind of.
I mean, technically, like, yesterday, I lost my id and I'm like.
Like, I got a call from, like, the gun store. Be like, hey, we have your id. I'm like, oh, okay. Thank you for letting me know.
Because, like, they're. You know, I got there as they were closing, and I was just getting done, and so I, like, race home. Didn't even think about it, you know, get through my day. Don't even think. Because I don't use my ID all the time.
And, you know, I get a phone call, random. I'm like, hello. Like, hey, this is, you know, the gun store. We have your id.
Like, oh, God damn it. I'm like, all right, I'll come get it tomorrow.
And I'm like, Hoping and praying that I don't have to use my ID at all. I'm like, I'm not gonna go out to the bar.
I'm not gonna, you know, go.
[00:39:59] Speaker C: Picture.
You ask them if they can send a picture to you or you already have one already.
[00:40:05] Speaker A: I have a spare id.
[00:40:07] Speaker C: Oh, really?
[00:40:08] Speaker A: I keep my old ID with a hole punch in it.
Same number.
[00:40:12] Speaker B: Why is there a hole punch in it?
[00:40:13] Speaker A: Oh, because it's no longer valid.
[00:40:15] Speaker C: My number memorized.
F1. Nope.
[00:40:19] Speaker B: Courtney?
[00:40:20] Speaker C: No, I didn't finish, but I do know it.
[00:40:23] Speaker A: It's like, F1 is like. Oh, no.
[00:40:27] Speaker B: F150 is a truck.
Is it a good truck or a truck? Remember it?
[00:40:34] Speaker A: Yeah. That's what happens when you do the marijuana.
[00:40:37] Speaker C: I know.
I'm sorry.
[00:40:40] Speaker B: What's the difference between an F150 and F250?
[00:40:43] Speaker A: This is a bigger engine.
[00:40:45] Speaker B: So is it a diesel?
[00:40:46] Speaker C: I'm good to go.
[00:40:47] Speaker A: It can be. Yeah.
[00:40:48] Speaker B: So you have to request it.
[00:40:52] Speaker A: I mean, yeah, you have to buy a diesel engine by a Cummins.
Like, the other day I was at Sam's club, filling up, and, like, this dude had an F250 in front of me, and I don't think he had a diesel, but he was putting diesel into his truck.
[00:41:15] Speaker B: What happens when you put the wrong gas in the wrong engine?
[00:41:19] Speaker A: It gums up and dies.
[00:41:20] Speaker B: And then what does come up mean?
[00:41:21] Speaker A: It means that, you know, certain, you know, engines work on different principles.
[00:41:28] Speaker B: Like the spark plugs.
[00:41:30] Speaker A: Yeah. Like a diesel doesn't have spark plugs.
[00:41:32] Speaker B: Diesel doesn't have spark plugs.
[00:41:33] Speaker A: Does not have spark plugs now.
[00:41:35] Speaker B: But if you put gas in it, it won't work. But if you put diesel in a gas that has spark plugs, it won't work.
I want it.
[00:41:45] Speaker A: Diesel works on compression, so you have to compress it.
[00:41:49] Speaker B: Yeah, but there's compression with spark plugs. The thing pulls down kind of.
So there's no explosion on diesels.
[00:41:56] Speaker A: It just won't work.
[00:41:57] Speaker B: So then why don't diesel engines catch on fire?
[00:42:01] Speaker A: Oh, they do, but they.
[00:42:03] Speaker B: Why there's no spark plug?
[00:42:07] Speaker A: The combustion for diesel only happens under compression.
So you have to compress your diesel and then it'll ignite.
It's just different. It's like, you know, why can't you feed your cat dog food?
[00:42:24] Speaker B: Because there's no taurine in it.
[00:42:27] Speaker A: Yeah, okay.
You know, why can't you use, you know, like, milk instead of, you know, honey?
[00:42:39] Speaker B: That doesn't make any sense.
[00:42:41] Speaker A: Like, imagine, like, you're making, like, cereal with honey instead of milk.
[00:42:47] Speaker B: Wouldn't that be delicious, though? No, but it's sticky.
[00:42:51] Speaker A: But it'd be a thicker.
[00:42:53] Speaker B: That's what she said, so.
[00:42:56] Speaker A: Yeah, but, like, this. This dickhead was just, like, taking, like, literally. I'm across the way, I see the dude from behind him pull out and drive around. Another dude pull in, and I pull in behind that guy.
[00:43:10] Speaker B: Like, he's at, like, the island for the big trucks.
[00:43:13] Speaker A: No, Sam's club.
[00:43:14] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Sorry. I was thinking lubs. For some reason.
[00:43:17] Speaker A: Sam's club, they rhyme. My what?
They rhyme?
[00:43:25] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:43:26] Speaker A: Sam's Club and loves.
[00:43:28] Speaker B: Yeah, it's the same. It's a short U at the end.
[00:43:31] Speaker A: But, you know, needless to say, did.
[00:43:34] Speaker B: His truck start or did it break down?
[00:43:35] Speaker A: It started, and, like, he went straight into, you know, Sam's club.
[00:43:40] Speaker B: How long will a gasoline engine run on diesel?
[00:43:44] Speaker A: No, not very long.
You'll find out really quick.
Sometimes you can get lucky and just drain your engine. You have to. Or drain your, you know, tank.
[00:43:53] Speaker B: I've seen these prank videos where, like, the wife, like, drives, like, her husband's car, and then she tells her husband she put gasoline in the diesel engine. Then she, like, watches. Watches him freak out. And I'm like, I don't know if that's a funny prank or not.
[00:44:06] Speaker A: No, it's not.
[00:44:07] Speaker B: Okay. I didn't think it was funny.
What does your car run on your big F4 4x4.
[00:44:15] Speaker A: Mine runs on gasoline.
[00:44:17] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:44:18] Speaker A: You know, the only reason you'd want a diesel truck is if you want to tow something.
[00:44:23] Speaker B: I thought you wanted it because it made the noise.
[00:44:26] Speaker A: No, like, I wanted my, you know, 4Runner because it's a reliable truck.
[00:44:33] Speaker B: It is reliable.
It just doesn't have gas mileage.
[00:44:40] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't need it to have gas mileage.
[00:44:42] Speaker B: I love it when you fill up your tank and then you're like, babe, it hurt.
[00:44:49] Speaker A: I mean, let's see.
Like, on my big truck, I think it's like, 1200 a week.
[00:45:01] Speaker B: Okay, your big truck doesn't count. I'm talking about your Toyota last time.
[00:45:06] Speaker A: Yeah, I filled that up, you know, full to the brim.
I think it cost me, like, 40 bucks.
[00:45:12] Speaker B: Last time I filled my tank up, it was 15.
[00:45:16] Speaker A: Yeah, but mine will last, like, way longer than yours will probably will because I only go a few miles.
Yeah.
[00:45:23] Speaker B: Sheila's put on the miles.
Although I'm not commuting to Castle Rock anymore, so it's a lot less a year, so.
[00:45:31] Speaker A: But, yeah, I was able to get my ID back long Story short, and I know that I, like, teased about, you know, having that sleep study a few episodes ago.
[00:45:45] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, I was right.
[00:45:48] Speaker A: So these, you know, doctors, like, you have, like, the.
[00:45:51] Speaker B: Only because I was right.
[00:45:53] Speaker A: You have a little bit of, you know, steep apnea. It's not major.
[00:45:57] Speaker B: Yeah, but you're still gonna die from it.
[00:45:59] Speaker A: Good.
[00:46:01] Speaker B: Surely you want to die asphyxiated in your sleep.
[00:46:04] Speaker A: Dying in my sleep sounds dope.
[00:46:06] Speaker B: I mean, it does. I can't deny that, like, when you die, you stop dreaming. But how do you know?
[00:46:13] Speaker C: So you have sleep apnea.
[00:46:14] Speaker B: Oh, he has sleep apnea so bad. I'm talking about, like, not like, you.
[00:46:19] Speaker C: Know, those headaches that you get.
Sleep apnea?
[00:46:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:46:23] Speaker C: My dad used to get them a lot. His headaches. He doesn't get headaches anymore. He finally got the breathing machine. He's, like, so much better.
[00:46:33] Speaker A: No, I get the headaches because I'm dehydrated.
[00:46:36] Speaker B: That too. Like, if you're home on Sunday and I don't give you breakfast, you get headaches later.
[00:46:41] Speaker A: Well, no, like, the major headaches, like, the fucking cluster headaches are not related to sleep apnea at all.
[00:46:48] Speaker C: I don't know. My dad thought he had them, too.
They stopped after he stopped.
[00:46:54] Speaker B: Well, did your dad have cluster headaches or did he have migraines? Because those two are different.
[00:46:58] Speaker A: Yeah, I'd much rather have a million fucking migraines than my headaches.
[00:47:01] Speaker B: Migraines are so much better than cluster headaches. Although once I started my Lyrica, my cluster headaches, like, got a lot better.
Like that. Like when I had one during the summer, that was the first one I'd had in, like, a long time. I was, like, floating in the pool and I was in so much pain, but I was in the pool.
[00:47:20] Speaker A: Now to find out.
[00:47:21] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:47:22] Speaker A: Are cluster headaches related to sleep apnea?
[00:47:31] Speaker B: Read it, read it.
[00:47:34] Speaker A: I'm reading everything before I read the.
[00:47:37] Speaker B: Don't read it. The Internet told you you were wrong.
Go back to the top.
[00:47:42] Speaker A: Let me read, like, up. I am reading. Fucking National Library of Medicine, you know, higher prevalence.
You know, patients with cluster headaches have a higher prevalence of sleep apnea.
So the cluster headaches can cause the sleep apnea, not the other way around.
[00:48:04] Speaker B: No, they're aggravating each other.
[00:48:07] Speaker A: Sleep apnea has suggested to be a trigger of an associated abnormality and ch.
Cluster headaches.
It has been proposed that the regulation of the hypothalamus may be responsible for sleep apnea.
[00:48:22] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:48:23] Speaker A: And is generally similar between cluster headaches. Is generated in the hypothalamus.
[00:48:28] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:48:29] Speaker A: No, not even close to my hypothalamus.
Yeah. These people are fucking dumb.
[00:48:35] Speaker B: No, they're not.
[00:48:36] Speaker A: Fucking Steven.
You know, B. Graff, Radford. You have four names. You're dumb. And then Antonia Turel. Fucking.
[00:48:45] Speaker B: Those are references.
[00:48:48] Speaker A: What?
[00:48:48] Speaker B: Yes, they're references.
[00:48:49] Speaker A: A name.
[00:48:51] Speaker B: Yeah. And that's a person who did another study.
Oh, what's that one down below? The hypertension one? Click on that.
[00:49:00] Speaker A: Prevalence of hypertension in patients with trigeminal. Trigeminal neuralgia. That word.
Fucking a lot of goddamn big words.
[00:49:12] Speaker B: Well, yeah, it's Latin.
[00:49:14] Speaker A: It is unclear whether the hypertension. HTN is a pre.
[00:49:20] Speaker B: That's disposing that they're.
[00:49:23] Speaker C: They're related, so they don't know why yet.
[00:49:26] Speaker A: Yeah, because doctors are dumb, and I don't trust them.
Congratulations. You went to a school for another 12 years and got yourself into severe.
[00:49:34] Speaker B: Oh, medicine is so cool.
[00:49:36] Speaker A: I don't trust doctors.
[00:49:37] Speaker B: Medicine is cool.
[00:49:39] Speaker A: I do. Like.
[00:49:40] Speaker C: Do you trust mechanics?
[00:49:41] Speaker A: No.
[00:49:42] Speaker B: He doesn't trust anybody.
Do you even trust me?
[00:49:47] Speaker C: No.
Well, Alex, that kind of should have already been like it should be.
[00:49:54] Speaker B: I legitimately, currently, in my own world, I'm always accurate. But that's not true. In the world around me.
I'm not gonna deny my pride in myself.
[00:50:03] Speaker A: Like, I'm currently wearing a bulletproof vest.
[00:50:06] Speaker B: What, for me?
[00:50:07] Speaker A: Yeah, it's fine.
Oh, sure, yeah. We. We just.
I. I even put, like, Epstein on this, you know, list, and I'm like, oh, no, Epstein's on my list.
Yeah. I'm just gonna ignore the whole Epstein thing because no one really gives a.
But we do got some news stories. My wife just left to go pee again.
Man who cryogenically froze his wife finds new love years later.
I just love this.
A man who cryogenically froze his wife in hopes of curing her lung cancer has found a new partner years later. I sincerely hope that they find the cure for this lung cancer. Cure her. Unfreeze her.
And, you know, her husband is, you know, with his, like, new lady, and she just comes in back.
Excuse me.
You know, what the fuck is this? It's like, it's 2030. We don't swear anymore, you know, Arrest her.
Oh, it's a story that feels straight. At the sci Fi novel or Batman movie with Mr. Freeze.
That's hilarious.
[00:51:39] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Didn't he have. Wasn't he walking on, like, spider legs afterwards?
[00:51:45] Speaker A: What?
[00:51:46] Speaker B: Yeah, he walked on spider legs in what? In the movie with Mr.
[00:51:51] Speaker A: Freeze.
[00:51:52] Speaker B: Yeah, no, Mr. Freeze, like, he, like, died, but then he came back, like, a hundred years later, and he was walking on spider legs as his body was gone.
[00:52:00] Speaker A: I have no idea what movie you're talking about.
[00:52:04] Speaker B: It's a Batman movie, but it's, like, in the future. It's, like, after everybody died. But, like, Mr. Freeze, like, shows up, and they're, like, trying to figure out how to, like, like, destroy him, and eventually they make it back to the Batcave. And, like, the instructions on how to kill him are written in, like, the 01 numbers, but, like, binary. Yeah, so it's written in binary. And while they're trying to figure out what the. How to fucking get rid of him, he's walking around in, like, spider legs. Like, the fucking freaky thing from, like, Toy Story.
[00:52:31] Speaker A: My favorite thing about Toy Story is the legs.
[00:52:36] Speaker B: It's like the. Okay, it is. It's okay. It's the worst part, but it is a good part, unfortunately.
[00:52:42] Speaker A: Did you not get the joke, though?
[00:52:44] Speaker B: I did not get the joke.
[00:52:45] Speaker A: The joke is the legs have a fishing hook. So it's a hooker.
[00:52:51] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. Remember that?
[00:52:53] Speaker B: Wait, what does it have to do with spider legs?
Well, no, remember, like, hookers only have two legs.
[00:52:59] Speaker A: Yes.
The. The.
Okay.
Sid's Toys in Toy Story.
[00:53:06] Speaker B: Wait, the hookers are different from the spider?
[00:53:10] Speaker A: The fucking. The hooker.
[00:53:12] Speaker B: Okay, I thought you said the spider was the hooker, and I was very confused.
[00:53:15] Speaker A: No, this is the hooker, obviously.
And then this is a quack head.
[00:53:23] Speaker B: Oh. I thought it was a reference to the thing with, like, all the ducks on it. With the plane.
[00:53:28] Speaker A: No, like. Like a crackhead.
[00:53:31] Speaker B: Like, I love that it's a crackhead.
I'm not gonna lie. The only reference I got was the Marie Antoinette when she and her sissy had no heads.
[00:53:41] Speaker A: And, you know, this is the erector set.
[00:53:47] Speaker B: The what?
[00:53:48] Speaker A: The erector set. Like, it was a toy from way back when, you know, and it was, like, a bunch of metal, and you can, like, connect it together. Called erectors.
[00:53:57] Speaker B: Oh, like the things with, like. Oh, what were they called? Where they were, like, what pieces you could put together. And they had the spheres.
[00:54:03] Speaker A: They were way better.
Erector set.
Yeah. So they're close. I don't care. Yeah, you can like, literally get them, and it was just all metal.
Okay.
[00:54:22] Speaker B: It's different from the pixel stick one.
[00:54:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:54:25] Speaker B: What are they called? Do you remember?
[00:54:30] Speaker A: No, it's like Lincoln Logs or something.
[00:54:32] Speaker B: Okay. No, that's different. That's how we describe.
[00:54:35] Speaker A: But you could, like, make anything you wanted with the erector Set. It was like Legos, but with metal.
[00:54:40] Speaker B: That looks like the Robot Wars.
[00:54:41] Speaker A: Yeah, it was like. Well, you can make all of these with, like, you know, one of these with, like, the set, and you can disassemble it and remake it.
[00:54:52] Speaker B: That's pretty cool.
[00:54:53] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, they're dope.
Now. Now I gotta see how much they cost on Amazon.
No, not that.
Yeah, Metal building toys. Yeah. 22 bucks. Yeah.
And it was just for engineering and, like, that.
[00:55:14] Speaker B: I can see you enjoying that as a kid.
[00:55:17] Speaker A: I didn't have it as a kid, but.
[00:55:20] Speaker B: It wasn't even, like, a McDonald's toy.
[00:55:22] Speaker A: Oh, no. These were, like, expensive back in the day, you know, but, you know, still cool.
[00:55:30] Speaker B: Like, you know, it's cool.
Like, I remember the one with, like, the magnets and stuff.
But what was it called with the wooden sticks?
[00:55:40] Speaker A: Wooden construction toys.
These.
Yeah, those Tinker toys.
[00:55:52] Speaker B: Oh, there we go.
Okay. My dad got my brothers a set of Tinker toys. And they didn't care for them, but I built them all the time. Oh, my God. I loved the Tinker toys. Like, my dad always got myself brothers as I didn't care for, but that I loved, like, the Hot Wheels and the Tinker toys. Those were so much fun. My mom would even get me dolls because apparently Barbie would, like, send me to the devil or some holy.
[00:56:17] Speaker A: That, like, unlocked a memory.
[00:56:19] Speaker B: What?
[00:56:20] Speaker A: So as a kid, like, I was, you know, like, a school project required me to, like, build, like, a trebuchet or, like, something. Like, there's a reason why I had to build, like, a trebuchet. So I made it out of Tinker toys and rubber bands and, like, a fucking net that I get, like, like a little, you know, like a semi ball that I got from, like, Michael's. And it worked great.
[00:56:45] Speaker B: Oh, my God, of course it did.
[00:56:47] Speaker A: Like, I would take Tic Tacs and put them in there, and, like, I just, like, fling them at the wall, and you just turn into dust.
[00:56:54] Speaker B: I'm like, this is the nice.
[00:56:57] Speaker A: You know, like, I. I always made dumb like that.
[00:57:00] Speaker B: That's not dumb. That's cool. As, like.
[00:57:02] Speaker A: Like, as a kid, I. I found out that I could take pencils and shoot them.
[00:57:07] Speaker B: Didn't you shoot yourself in the palm?
[00:57:09] Speaker A: In the thumb? In the back of the thumb. The back of the thumb, the back.
[00:57:12] Speaker B: So I thought you got it in, like, the pressure spot.
[00:57:15] Speaker A: So, no, I was, you know, using a coat hanger, like a plastic hanger, as, like, a bow and arrow, because I didn't have a real one. And I was Using pencils as the arrows. And then I used my thumb as an aimer. I remember this. I'm like, oh, that's pretty sweet. Now I can aim.
And, like, I had a short pencil and, like, it wouldn't, like, fit, you know, So I just, like, kind of, like, let it fly. And it went straight in the back of my thumb, went flying off. And I'm like, oh, shit. You know, freaking out, you know, I'm just, like, calming myself down. I'm like, it's fine, it's fine. It's not bleeding. We're good.
We're solid. Solid as a rock.
[00:57:51] Speaker B: Of course it wasn't bleeding. Get a plug, huh?
[00:57:55] Speaker A: And so, like, I cleaned everything up, and I'm like, all right, we're good. I don't have to worry about any of this, you know, we're solid. And like, two days later, like, my mom, just out of nowhere, like, unaware, was like, hey, let me cut your nails, you know, because I was still a kid, and I'm like, mom, I'm a man now. I'm a grown ass man.
I can cut my own nails. I don't need.
[00:58:24] Speaker B: That's so fucking suspicious.
[00:58:26] Speaker A: I don't need your help.
I will do it myself. Let me see the clip. My mom immediately snatched my hands. Like, what the fuck is wrong with her hand?
[00:58:36] Speaker B: That's super sus, babe. Of course she did.
[00:58:39] Speaker A: Like, she came out of left field with it. I'm like, oh, shit. You know, And I had to think on my feet.
And she's like, what the fuck is that? I'm like, pencil lead.
And she's like, oh, shit, we have to get you to the hospital.
And then she got me to the hospital, and it wasn't, like, that big of a deal.
[00:58:58] Speaker B: Did you get antibiotics?
[00:58:59] Speaker A: Yeah, it was infected, like, all the fuck.
[00:59:01] Speaker B: Yeah, so you needed to go to the hospital.
[00:59:03] Speaker A: It's fine.
[00:59:04] Speaker B: You needed antibiotics, okay? Before antibiotics, you could have died from that shit.
It was a different world before antibiotics were discovered. Slash invented because they've been augmented.
[00:59:21] Speaker A: I mean, my mom always made sure that I was, you know, taken care of medically.
[00:59:26] Speaker B: Yeah, of course she did.
[00:59:27] Speaker A: She's like, I can't have this one die.
[00:59:30] Speaker B: Nah, it's not her fault. You were terrified of lidocaine.
[00:59:34] Speaker A: Oh, no, I was just terrified of needles.
[00:59:37] Speaker B: No, it was a lidocaine.
No, like, no, you associated the pain with the needle. It's fine.
[00:59:43] Speaker A: No, I associated the fucking trauma with the fucking needle pain trauma.
So. So the reason I'm. I was afraid of needles. Like, My first memory was, like, getting the chickenpox vaccine or some shit like that.
[00:59:59] Speaker B: Like, oh, my God, I don't know why they don't sedate kids for vaccines when they're little.
Like, seriously, they should just sedate the little fuckers. Like, one time I was in line for my Covid shot and like, the kid in front of me was like, screaming his full head off. And it was like half an hour before the parents gave up. And I was like, if that was a kitten or a cat, it just would have sedated it and gotten everything done and woken it up.
[01:00:22] Speaker A: Give me a fucking suppository. I'll fucking shove a fucking Coke bottle up my ass.
[01:00:27] Speaker B: Like, they need to sedate kids a lot more often than they do, in my opinion.
[01:00:32] Speaker C: Maybe just give them something like, or.
[01:00:34] Speaker B: Like volume or something like that.
[01:00:37] Speaker C: That's anti anxiety.
[01:00:39] Speaker B: Okay, so like, when kittens come in for vaccines, like, I bring toys, I bring catnip, I feed them. She proves. I scratch their head. I literally tap like, between the spot between your eyes. Like, I do everything I can to distract them. So they didn't even know they get vaccines either. They're like, oh, my God snack. Or like, oh, my God, Torres. They're like, oh, my God, this lady's like, tapping me in the head. Like, what the fuck is that? And they don't even notice the vaccine. Like, they need to do that with babies and, like, infants and like, up until like, you're like, dude, they.
[01:01:06] Speaker C: Some doctors do do that.
[01:01:08] Speaker B: Yeah. And the doctors who don't do that are assholes and shouldn't be in pediatric medicine.
[01:01:15] Speaker A: So, yeah, like, I was getting this vaccination and, like, there was like a special chair and like, two nurses and my mom held me down while they fucking vaccinated me.
[01:01:26] Speaker B: That's not the way to do it.
[01:01:28] Speaker A: And like, at least we're not like.
[01:01:30] Speaker C: In a time where, like, they believe babies don't feel pain.
[01:01:35] Speaker A: I wasn't a baby. I was fully capable of, like, holding off, like two full grown women.
[01:01:41] Speaker C: Think about it. They did all those a bunch of surgeries on, like, kids and stuff. And, like, they didn't use any pain medication or anesthesia.
[01:01:51] Speaker B: No.
[01:01:54] Speaker C: All those kids, like, instinctively have a feeling fear now of doctors. Like, they don't. Like people in white coats.
[01:02:03] Speaker B: No.
[01:02:03] Speaker C: Or like nuns outfits. Because nuns were nurses back then.
[01:02:07] Speaker B: Yes.
[01:02:08] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:02:08] Speaker B: And like, what that does is it predisposes you to chronic pain. So there was this really cool study. So, like, in like goats, a lot of times they like, cut the horns off when they're infants, like, they burn it off. And so there was a study looking at baby goats who had pain medication versus the baby goats who didn't have the pain medication. And so the baby goats who had the pain medication, they were a lot more docile. They were open to human interaction. They handled a lot of other things really well, versus the baby goats who didn't have the pain control. They were very fear aggressive.
There were a lot more medical complications, and they developed chronic pain later on in life.
Wow. Yeah. So lack of pain control when you're a baby, it fucks up with your pain signals to your brain and it predisposes you to chronic pain.
[01:02:59] Speaker A: Well, it's not the pain like fucking, you know, getting stabbed. It doesn't bother me at all.
You know, it's the needle.
[01:03:06] Speaker B: Pain signals, fear signals. What are the difference?
There is a difference in my mind.
[01:03:11] Speaker A: I can feel the needle inside of me.
[01:03:14] Speaker B: Oh, okay. I'm not going to deny that needles do have their own sensation.
But if someone's tapping you in the forehead, like, it's really hard to notice the needle.
Because, like, whenever I get, like, dental blocks, like some, like, one nurse is like, oh, I'm just gonna tap you in the head. And I was like, what the fuck? And I was way more focused on the tapping of the needle than I tapping on my head than I was the needle in the lidocaine. I was just like, this is so fucking annoying. Then I was like, oh, my God, it works.
[01:03:42] Speaker A: I think the main reason I'm, like, really afraid of needles, though, is taking a horse penicillin needle to the face.
[01:03:48] Speaker B: Okay, now that was traumatizing for you, and there's no way around it.
[01:03:54] Speaker A: Yeah, that was just like, a bad time. Yeah.
[01:03:57] Speaker B: I can remember when we had to learn how to do injections in horses and they gave us this big, like, 14 gauge needle or 16 gauge, actually. And I was like, what the fuck? I'm supposed to use this? They're like, oh, yeah. And I'm like, okay, I don't think I want to work with horses anymore.
Although I was interested in going into, like, dairy medicine, but someone told me, you're way too short to work with the cows. And I'm like, yeah, I kind of am. So I went back to cats, which I was destined to do. But for a while, I thought about dairy medicine. I'm not gonna lie.
I just really liked the concept of having a port so I could stick my arm, like, shoulder deep into their guts.
Not gonna lie. That Was very beguiling.
[01:04:40] Speaker A: Yeah, horses and fucking cows stink, okay?
[01:04:44] Speaker B: Horses and cattle are two different types of medicine.
And I don't mind how dairy farms smell like. I'm sorry. It doesn't bother me.
[01:04:53] Speaker A: I mean, until you get, like, the pig section of it.
[01:04:57] Speaker B: Oh, my God. I was supposed to go to, like, the pig section in school, but then when I jumped off the bus, I twisted my ankle and I had to go to urgent care, so I didn't get to go to the pig farm.
[01:05:06] Speaker A: Be glad they stink. They're.
[01:05:07] Speaker B: Oh, my God. No, it was because one of the girls tried to do a blood draw. And so when you draw bloods on the pigs, you literally go straight to the heart because they have no veins. Everything is considered under their thick fur. And, like, the chick was drawing blood and then the pig died, which is. Which is not uncommon. When you do a hard stick on a pig. Like, it's not uncommon. But I wasn't there to witness the death of the pig, and I'm still.
[01:05:30] Speaker A: Pigs bleed a lot.
[01:05:32] Speaker B: Yeah. Have you ever heard the phrase bleed like a stuck pig? Yes, yes, precisely. They bleed a ton. And I could have been there to watch the pig die. And I.
[01:05:41] Speaker A: Do you want to go to a butcher? You know, thing?
[01:05:44] Speaker B: And I did go to a butcher thing. I wrote an essay on it.
[01:05:48] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:05:48] Speaker C: Oh, God.
[01:05:52] Speaker B: Okay. Apparently there's like a horror movie out there about a vet tech who, like, starts working with, like, raw meat, but eventually transitions to being a cannibal for humans. And I wanted to watch that, but I can't watch horror movies because it gives me nightmares so bad, so I'll never see it, but I understand the plot.
[01:06:09] Speaker A: Holy shit. We're already over an hour.
[01:06:11] Speaker B: I want to eat a human body.
[01:06:13] Speaker A: Okay.
[01:06:14] Speaker B: I have a list of muscles that I want to eat.
[01:06:16] Speaker A: Yeah, We. We didn't even get to, like, the meat cleaver found on the plane.
There was a woman picking up pizza and she was arrested for driving 107 miles an hour.
[01:06:27] Speaker B: Damn, girl. Okay. Hot pizza is better, though. I can't deny that.
[01:06:32] Speaker A: And then in the advice, you know, best friend of 12 years made out with my dad. You know, I first read that as like a 12 year old made out with the dad. I'm like, no, no.
But as you know, your best friend for 12 years, you know, but your best friend is 20 years old, so it's like, still, like, dude.
[01:06:51] Speaker B: Nah, it's gross.
[01:06:54] Speaker A: Some narc in Colorado tried to, you know, snitch on some marijuana.
[01:07:01] Speaker B: I remember at work, like, my last Job like, the manager was trying to fire a certain person, so she drug tech, drug tested all of us, expecting only that one person to test positive for weed. But then everyone in the clinic tested positive for weed, and that dropped it.
So, like, what the fuck were they gonna do? We're in Colorado. Of course everyone's gonna test positive. Positive for weed.
[01:07:23] Speaker A: Apparently, like, all the non CDL people are allowed to smoke weed at my work.
[01:07:28] Speaker B: That's.
[01:07:30] Speaker A: Well, I'm.
[01:07:31] Speaker B: If they can't. If you can't smoke weed, neither can they, and vice versa, I don't really give a.
[01:07:35] Speaker A: That's fine. Go ahead and, you know, they can go smoke weed, but.
And then, you know, some. Some different.
[01:07:44] Speaker C: Unfortunately for you guys, it's. It's insurance purposes.
[01:07:50] Speaker A: No, no.
Since I have a cdl, I am pretty much governed by the federal government, and since marijuana is federally illegal, I have to follow federal regulations.
[01:08:09] Speaker C: Well, I mean, doesn't that mean you can.
If you go to another country and come back. I mean, that doesn't really.
So you can still test positive.
[01:08:21] Speaker A: So there is a country or a company called Clearinghouse, and they are responsible for testing all the truck drivers, and they'll, you know, contact, you know, companies and say, hey, you know, you need to test this guy, this guy, this guy, and this guy.
And they'll be like, okay, cool. And pretty much wherever I am, you know, they'll be like, hey, we need to go. We need you to go take a drug test.
You know, if. You know, especially if I'm out in the field and I, you know, get into an accident. Usually they'll wait till I get back, and then they'll hand me a thing called a passport, and I just go to where it says, go in piss in a cup. I'm good, and I get paid for it.
So.
Yeah, they do, like, half the truck drivers every year.
I've gotten it quite a few times. It's fine.
And every two years, I have to, you know, go to a piss test. Anyway, I have to go get to a full physical, so I'm not too worried about it, you know, Go ahead and test my piss. I honestly should just sell my pass, you know.
[01:09:34] Speaker B: Good. Sell your piss.
Oh, look, honestly, on all the meds, I am, I would test positive for certain things that I don't actually take.
[01:09:43] Speaker A: Well, here's the problem.
If you sell your piss to the. If you sell your piss to the wrong person, get you in trouble, too. So you just don't do that.
But we're gonna go ahead and end this episode. You know, we missed out on the. That stole a work chair and got arrested.
[01:09:59] Speaker C: Sorry.
[01:10:00] Speaker A: And the fucking dude that almost killed another dude with a crossbow.
So, yeah, maybe we'll get to it. Maybe we won't.
But until next week. We'll see you then. Bye.
[01:10:17] Speaker B: Bye.
