  Speaker 1: Hello, friends from across the nation and around the world.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: My Martin and you are listening to Dad's Bedtime Stories,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the podcast that takes the listener ideas and turns them
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: into bedtime stories. Tonight, we're headed back into my Spaceship universe,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: and if you've never listened before, it's honestly totally fine,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: because all you really need to know is that you're
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: a kid who has a magic spaceship and it takes
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: you to different planets and stuff, and it can kind
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: of do pretty much anything I imagine or you imagine
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: it can do. So let's check out the idea for
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: today and get going.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Hello, my name is Silas, and I would like to
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: suggest a rodeo planet where you aren't actually competing in
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: a rodeo and all that. You're just trying all the
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: events and seeing how they are. And there's different jobs
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: for the event where you can just make the show
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: for showing all the people at your event. And you
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: found a guy who can teach all sorts of events.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: He teaches you all the events, and then you want
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: to customize your own event, so you create an event
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: that's kind of like bull riding, and then you have
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: to ride the bull, except when you get off the ball,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: you have to try to wrestle the bull, and then
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: you have to get onto your horse, and then you
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: has to last of the bull. Thank you, I love
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: your podcast.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Bye well, Silas great idea. I gotta be honest, I
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: thought it was a bit familiar, so I checked to
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: see if I've ever done a rodeo planet before, and
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: the answer is sort of. I did a Cowboy planet
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: where there was a rodeo that happened on it. And
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have listened to that
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: or not, but if you like rodeos, it's another one
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: to listen to. I guess we'll make this one different
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: and make it a full out rodeo planet, like a
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: rodeo only planet or something like that. And I think
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: the biggest challenge in this story is going to be
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: that event at the end where you have to wrestle
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: a bull, because I don't think that's a thing. I
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: don't think that's a thing anyways that people really do.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Do people wrestle bulls? Can somebody let me know in
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: the comment somewhere if people actually wrestle bulls. I know
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: people like stand in front of them, and you know,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: try not to get hit by them and stuff, and
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: you know, wave little pieces of cloth and that sort
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: of thing. But I've never seen somebody wrestle a bull.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: So this is gonna be a fun one to make,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have to come up with reasons why
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: that happens, and hopefully I can do that before we begin,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: just a big shout out to everyone who's rating and
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: reviewing the podcast. It really goes a long way. Ratings
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: and reviews matter a ton on Apple especially, they matter
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: a lot on Spotify and everywhere else. They kind of
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: have their own rating systems, and I assume they matter
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: to some extent. So thank you for writing me those
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: ratings and reviews. I don't necessarily get to read every
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: single one because only once for my country kind of
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: show up for me to read, if that makes any sense.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: But I can tell that people have been putting new
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: ones in, and thank you, thank you, thank you. Also,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I know a lot of you don't like ads, and
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: that's why I try to make it as affordable as
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: possible to be able to join Patreon and get the
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: episodes ad free for as little as one dollar a month,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: and you can even pay upfront for the year. Twelve
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: dollars for an entire year. Honestly, not that expensive in
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the scheme of things, I hope. But if you don't
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: feel like doing that, that's totally fine because ads help too,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: just like this possible ad from a possible sponsor. Now
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: it's time to close your eyes, get as comfy as
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: you can wherever you are, and imagine yourself doing what
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: the kid in the story does. You wake up on
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: spaceship as you usually do. Good morning, sunshine, spaceship says,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: good Bordic spaceship. Where are we headed today? That is
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: an excellent question. I have recently discovered a planet where
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the inhabitants enjoy rodeo. You mean, like the cowboy planet
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: that we've been to before, you ask somewhat. However, this
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: planet does not focus on being a cow person. Instead,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: it focuses almost entirely on Well, I guess that does
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: sound pretty cool, and well it would give me out
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: of the spaceship. Set a course, you say, moving up
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: towards the control panel. I thought you would say that,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: spaceship replies as such, I have taken the liberty to
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: already set a course for the planet. We will be arriving. Now,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the ship stops and you find yourself floating over top
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: of a beautiful, blue, green, and somewhat dusty looking planet below.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: You sit down in the control seat and take a
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: hold of the controls, pressing forward on the throttle and
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: aiming straight into the planet. You watch as flames appear
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: around the ship as you pass through the atmosphere. Then,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: as the ship cools off, you dip below the clouds
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and sort of even the thing out over top of
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: the landscape. Looking out the window below, all you see
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: are fields and fields of crops and free roaming animals,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: and a whole bunch of large stadiums that are sort
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: of well everywhere. Oh what are those huge buildings, you ask?
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I believe those are rodeo arenas. Each town seems to
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: have their own. As I said, rodeo is very popular here. Well,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: which one should we head to? That is an excellent question.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: When in doubt, I suggest heading to the largest arena
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: we can find. I believe the largest one is located here.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: A map appears on the screen with a little glowing
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: dot and another dot indicating where you are in relation
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: to it. You steer the ship slightly to the right
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: to make sure you're headed towards the dot on the map,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: and soon you see the gigantic rodeo stadium in front
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: of you. It has a big sign above it that
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: says Rodeo. You're surprised that the sign is written in English,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: but you just shrug that off as you land as
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: close as you possibly can. Very good, Spaceship, says now,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: I suggest wearing an appropriate disguise. I have replicated one
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: for you. A hand well, a large mechanical hand shoots
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: out of the wall carrying what looks like a Hella
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: cowboy outfit check an old time he suret a cowboy
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: hat and those little things that go on the back
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: of your boots spurs. You quickly take the clothing, put
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: it on as fast as you can, and look at
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: yourself in a mirror at the side of the ship.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: You look like a real rodeo rider. Very good. Now,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: why don't you bring Changer out for a little bit
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: of fun. Perhaps he would enjoy becoming your horse or bull. Changer,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: excited to hear his name, jumps up off of the couch,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: walks over to you, and starts to stretch outward. His
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: body ripples and reforms itself, growing larger and larger into
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: a large and very fast looking horse, black with white
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: hair for some reason, and already equipped with a saddle. Somehow.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: You've never been sure how Changer makes things like saddles,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: but well, if only he could talk. You quickly put
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: one foot inside the stirrup and lift your body over
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: top of the horse. You grab a hold of the
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: reins and give Changer a gentle little nudge. The back
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: hatch of the spaceship opens up, and you and Changer
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: trod down and onto the rodeo planet. Just outside the
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Gigantic stadium, you see other people riding at top horses
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and well even bulls for some reason, and you decide
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: to follow them. You slowly walk after them as they
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: enter inside the stadium and move over or awards what
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: look like registration tables. When you finally get to the
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: front of the line, the person holding a clipboard and
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: sitting at the table looks at you. All right, then,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: are you here for the Rodeo Experience program? He asks, Uh? Yes,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: You answer very good. Well, just to be sure, this
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: here is a waiver signing. This here waiver here by
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: declares that you will in no way, hold this rodeo
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: company responsible for any and all accidents, including and up
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: to accidents caused by pure negligence on our part. You
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: also hereby understand that rodeo is dangerous business and can
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: result in many injuries, up to and including you becoming unlived.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: You think for a minute, and then you decide to
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: sign the After all, you don't even live on this planet,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: so it's unlikely that any illegal action would be possible anyways.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: All right, then we will hereby present you with your
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: very own rodeo assistant, who will run you through some
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: of the different rodeo tasks and events, getting you ready
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: for the final performance, where you will be able to
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: construct your very own rodeo event or mix of rodeo
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: events to attempt to will essentially entertain the audience. The
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: most entertaining participant will win the trophy. Oh okay, here,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: this here is Silas. He will be your rodeo coordinator. Well,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: it's nice to meet you. Another guy wearing a cowboy
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: uniform says he reaches out to shake your hand. You
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: lean down off of changer your horse and shake his
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, the first thing we're going to learn
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: to do is obviously to ride a bucking bronco. Follow me,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: You follow Silas over to wards a large arena surrounded
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: by a fence and lined with dirt. Inside the arena,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: you watch as a person attempts to hold on to
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: a horse that's kind of going crazy, jumping up and down,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: kicking its legs backward and doing its best to throw
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: the rider off. And well it's fully successful. You watch
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: as one of the other contestants flies up through the
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: air and lands flat on his back on the ground. Oh,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: he says, luckily for you. You've done some rodeo before,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: only your memory of it is starting to get a
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: little bit fuzzy. Spaceship, you say, yes, Spaceship answers through
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: your watch. Remember how you sometimes download memories into my
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: head about things like rodeo and stuff. Yes, would you
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: like me to give you a little refresher on rodeo
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: techniques and strategies, Spaceship asks, yes, please, initializing Now, a
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: strange electrical feeling passes through your wrist and directly into
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: your mind. In an instant, memories start to flood through
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: your brain. Memories of riding bucking broncos, how to sit,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: how to counteract, the movement, and generally how to stay on,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: memories of riding bulls, memories of roping different animals with
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: a last u of sorts, memories of barrel racing, and
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: all sorts of other race related events. Until the memories stop.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: You open your eyes and look at Silas. Ugh, are
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: you okay there, young one? Silas asks, uh, yeah, I
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: was just trying to remember how to ride one of
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: these things. I think I've done it before. Oh so
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: you're experienced, are you? Well? Then why don't we put
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: you on one of the craziest horses we have. We
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: named it Crazy Horse. Oh okay. You climb off of
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: changer and give them a little pad on the back.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Then you walk over to the horse that Silas called
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: crazy horse. All right, now, he's safe in this here cage.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: What you're gonna do is jump up on top, grab
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: onto this here rope. Then we'll open the gate and
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: you have to stay on. Normally you would train you
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: on one of them mechanical deals. But since you say
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: you've done this before, man, he's on the waiver that
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: doesn't know does responsible if something goes wrong here? We're
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: going to start you off with this thing, all right,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: you say, reluctantly. Climbing up over top of the fence.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: You swing your leg around the horse, grip the rope
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: as tightly as you can, and hold on to your
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: hat with your other hand, almost actively ball right there.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Three to one go. Silas pulls the gate open and
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: you blast forward atop your horse. And well, they weren't
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: lying when they said this horse was crazy. It begins
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: jumping up in the air, spinning around on its front legs,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: kicking its back legs up as violently as it can.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: But somehow your body knows exactly how to react. You
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: move with the movement of the horse, and you stay
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: on as it spins around, jumps around, kicks up, and
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: eventually just sort of gets tired. Well, then that is
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: pretty amazing. I don't think even some of the best
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: riders have stayed on crazy horse. Silas says, now you're
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: gonna want to jump boff and run over to the
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: side as quickly as you can. He's looking pretty tired,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: but well he might want his revenge or something. You
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: look down at the horse and then quickly swing your
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: leg over the side, land on the dirt and run
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: for the edge. You quickly leap over the fence and
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: look back at the horse, who's still just standing there.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, since you can, you know, take on
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: the crazy horse, I say we move on to a bull.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: You walk over to an area off to the right.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: It leads into the same general arena, but this one
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: is full of a whole bunch of different, very mean
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: looking bulls. The idea hears the same. And since you
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: were okay on that there, Bronco, I don't think you'll
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: have any trouble here. Just swing your leg over the
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: side and hold on for dear laugh. You're feeling a
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: lot more confident now after surviving crazy Horse, so you
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: immediately climb up over the fence, jump on top of
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the bull, and slide your hand under the rope. You
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: grab your hat with your other hand and nod that
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: you're ready again. Silas pulls the gate open, and the
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: bull rushes forward as if it's angry. For some reason
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: nobody can explain. It starts running around the arena in circles,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: spinning around on its front legs, and just generally jumping
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: up and down, doing its very best to whip you
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: off of the top. You react, as you did with
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: the other one, moving with the bull, holding on as
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: tight as you can, and pretty soon a buzzer rings.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Good job you made it, Silas says, Uh, the bull
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem to be getting tired, you yelled back, Oh, no,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: bulls can do this forever. You're gonna want to jump
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: off nice and calmly and run over to the side,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: he explains. You try to time your jump the best
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: you can. The next time the bull bucks up, you
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: let go of the rope and fly over to the side.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: You land on the ground, run for the side of
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: the arena, and hop back over top of it. All right, well,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: I guess we can move on to some of the
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: other events. We haven't gotten to this part too often lately.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Well what do you mean you haven't gotten to this
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: part too often lately? You ask? Oh, well, we kind
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: of start with the broncos in the bulls because most
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: people end up getting injured and then we don't have
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: to do anything else. To be honest with you, but
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: you somehow survived, so well here we go. Next up,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: I guess is barrel racing. You can bring your own
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: horse for this one if you want to. You move
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: over and grab a hold of changers reins you pull
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: it over to the next arena, where there's a whole
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: bunch of barrels set up in a little formation. All right, Well,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: generally your idea here is to race around the barrels,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: turn as tightly as you can, and kind of move
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: from one to the other. Here, I'll show you how
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: it's done. Silas climbs on top of another horse. Then
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: he gives the horse a little kick, and it races
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: towards one of the barrels. He turns it tightly in
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: a sort of figure eight pattern, and rushes back towards
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: another barrel, where he again turns it incredibly tightly and
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: continues this pattern back and forth through the arena. Then
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: he rides back over to you. Well, see that's sort
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: of how it's done. Well, let's see if you can
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: beat my time. Changer looks over to you and sort
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: of winks as if beating this guy's time is going
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: to be no problem at all. You put your foot
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: in the stirrup, climb back on top of your trusty horse,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: and wait until Silas gives you the go ahead. Three two,
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: one go, he says. You kick Changer and begin rushing
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: towards the barrel's changer does most of the work this time.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: You just try to hang on for dear life as
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: he races around the barrel straight towards the other one
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: at a speed that would impress a cheetah. You finish
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: the barrel race and walk back up to Silas, who
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: clicks the stop watch and stares at you in amazement.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: That was that was amazing, he says, I've never seen
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: a horse move that fast. Cool. You say, huh, what's next?
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Ugh?
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Right, well, I guess next we should probably learn to
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: use a lass. So he hands you a rope tight
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: in a perfect glass suit. All right, so to use
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: one of these, what you're gonna need to do is well,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: he continues to talk. You swing the rope around over
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: your head and throw it out towards a poll with
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: the lands directly on it, and you pull it tight. Oh,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: I see you've already done this before, too. Well, then, huh,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: let's try it from atop the horse. We got some
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: sheep we're gonna let loose. What you have to do
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: is rope the sheep, get off the horse, and tie
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: the sheep up on the ground. All right, let's give
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: it a try. You ride into the arena besides, Silas
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: with your last sue in hand, a buzzer rings, a
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: door opens, and several little sheep run in, spinning around
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: you very quickly. You set your sights on one of them,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: lift the rope up, begin to twirl it around, and
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: at what feels like just the right moment, you throw
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the rope and release. The little hoop slides over towards
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: the sheep, lands around its neck, and you pull it tight.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: The sheep falls to the ground. As you dismount the horse,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: run over beside it and tie up its feet, as
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: you learn to do inside your memories, Silas does the
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: same to another sheep, and then moves back over towards you. Well,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: it looks like you're pretty good at this. Thanks. Uh,
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: what's next? You ask? Well, I guess the last event
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: is bull wrestling? Bull wrestling? You answer? Is that actually
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: a thing? Well, of course it's a thing. Who wouldn't
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: want to see a grown person wrestle a bull to
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: the ground? Is it dangerous? You ask for the bull
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: or for the human wrestling it? Silas asks for the human.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, very dangerous. For the human, bulls got nothing
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: to worry about, But you could very well become unaliveed.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: And you guys, let random people who come in here
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: to learn about Rodeo just sort of wrestle bulls to
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: the ground. We sure do that, Waiver theres iron clad
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: and well. To be fair, we make our money from
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: the people watching, not the people learning. He points up
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: to the stands where you see a whole bunch of
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: people eating popcorn and watching what's going on here? You
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: move over to the side. Spaceship, you say to your watch, Yes,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: spaceship answers, do you have any memories of people uh
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: fighting bulls? No, Spaceship answers, I do not recommend fighting
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: a bull. Bulls are very dangerous creatures. It is better
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: to run away or evade the bull entirely. Yeah, I
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: get that, But this guy wants me to wrestle one.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: How am I supposed to do that? You ask, excellent question.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Perhaps we could enhance your physical attributes? You can what
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: we can enhance your physical attributes, giving you a higher
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: level of strength, endurance, and speed. You can do that,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: you say, of course, we can use the transmorphizer, the
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: same device built into your watch that allows you to
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: transform into different creatures. I will have it modify your
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: human DNA to make your muscles denser and far more
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: power powerful. I will also enhance your brain to move
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: faster and increase your reaction time. Oh okay, initializing a
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: strange tingling sensation passes through your body, only unlike normal,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Your shape doesn't change. Your muscles just sort of feel
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: like they suddenly tighten in place. Your eyes start to
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: move faster, and your mind starts to work well more
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: efficiently than ever. How does that feel, spaceship asks, I
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: feel a powerful You say excellent. Now be careful not
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: to become unalived. Ugh, who are you talking to over there?
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Silas says, it's your turn the ring. The goal here
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: is to wrestle the bull to the ground. If you
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: can throw them down on his sad, you win. You
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: enter through a gate in the ring. Silas closes it
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: behind you, and another door opens on the other end.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: A large and very angry looking bull stares at you.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: It pushes its front hoof against the ground, then it
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: runs directly at you. Something in your mind clicks into place,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: and your reaction time suddenly speeds up, making the world
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: seem as if it's slowing down around you. You watch
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: every step the bull makes and well pretty much slow motion.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: As it approaches you instinctively and quickly step to the side.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: You reach up and grab its one horn with your
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: left hand and its other horn with your right. You
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: pull one arm in and push the other one straight
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: up in the air, forcing the bull to turn its
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: neck to the side and causing it to flop over
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: onto its side. Oh, you actually did it, Silas says,
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Now you're probably gonna want to get out of there.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: You look around and then begin to run. Before the
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: bull can make its way to its feet again, you
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: hop over the side and watch as it climbs to
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: its feet and starts to run around rather angrily. Well,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: I guess you pass the class as we promised. You
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: now have the chance to make up your own event,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: maybe combine and some of the skills you've learned into
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: something that will be rather entertaining for the guests. Huh,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: I wonder what that would be. Well, I don't know,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: you could like ride the bull and then hop off
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: and wrestle it to the ground and then I don't know,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: like jump on a horse and last suet or something
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: like that. Huh, Okay, you say, I was just joking,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Silas says, but all right, I guess we can do that.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Silas moves over and starts to confer with others, setting
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: up the entire arrangement. Then they move you over towards
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: a bull. All right, well, I guess you'll start on
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: this here bull and ride it till you get thrown
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: off or jump off or whatever. Then you'll have to
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: wrestle it to the ground, after which time you can
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: run over to your horse, re enter the arena and
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: try to take it down with a lastsu kid, You've
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: done pretty well today, and I just want to say that,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: as much as I am not liable, if you do
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: end up, you know, not making it here, I hope
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: you don't, or I hope you do make it, is
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Thanks, you say as you climb onto
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: the bull and slide your hand underneath the rope. But
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: with your increased strength and all the memories about rodeo,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: it really shouldn't be an issue. A buzzer rings and
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: the door opens up. The bull speeds out with you
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: a top. It runs around in circles, it jumps up
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: and down and does its to throw you off. Unfortunately
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: for it, you're not going anywhere the buzzer rings to
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: indicate that you've made it through the time limit. So
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: you hop up on your feet on top of the
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: bull's back as it continues to buck around, and on
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: the next buck you launch yourself up into the air.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: You perform a perfect front flip with a little twist
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: at the end, and land on the ground, staring the
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: bull down. The bull, upset about you riding it or whatever,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: begins to run straight towards you again. Your new sense
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: of perception kicks in its movements slow. You step to
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: the side, grab its horns, twist them, and well guide
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: it over onto its side. With the bull down, you
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: run to the side of the arena. You jump over
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: the fence and climb on your trusted horse, Changer. The
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: doors open once again, allowing you and Changer to run
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: forward and circle around the bull. The bull gets up
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: off of the ground, looking rather well annoyed about all
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: of this. You grab the rope attached to his saddle,
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: begin spinning it around in a circle and wait for
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: the bull to charge towards You change your steps to
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: the side. As you release the rope, it hooks around
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: the bull and you pull it tight. You jump off
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: of the horse and move closer and closer to the bull,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: who has now been roped by your last sue. Though
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: nothing about that really makes the situation safe. It's jumping
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: up and down and doing its best to get free.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: It charges towards you, and again you step to the
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: side and redirect its horns, causing it to fall down
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: on the ground. You roll over top of the bull
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: and quickly wrap the last so around both of its
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: legs before standing up and looking at the crowd. The
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: crowd cheers, stands up and begins to clap and shout. Well,
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: I can't believe you actually did that. That was one
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: of the most ridiculous things I've ever suggested. Oh good job, kid,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: Silas says, slapping you on the back. Thanks, you respond,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Silas hands you a giant trophy. As you climb back
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: a top changer. You hold the trophy in the air
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: and the crowd cheers once again. Then you give changer
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: a little nudge in the side and you try out
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: of the arena, back outside and straight into the spaceship. Well,
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: how was it, spaceship asks as you climb off of
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: the horse, and the horse transforms back into a tiny
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: little earth puppy that quickly jumps up onto the couch.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: It was kind of weird, you say. Interesting. I suggest
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: we now undo the physical changes I have made, Otherwise
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: they could cause complications. Ah fine, you say. Another strange
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: tingling sensation passes through your body, and your muscles sort
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: of release. When the tingling stops, you feel weaker than before,
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: and well rather tired. I think I'm gonna go to bed,
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: you say. When you head out towards the door to
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: your bedroom, it opens automatically and you climb into your bed.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: You pull the covers up to your chin, and the
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: lights dim automatically. You listen to the hum of the
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: ship as it lifts up off the planet and blasts
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: out into space once again. With each breath, your muscles
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: relax more and more and more. You release the tension
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: in your arms, your legs, your shoulders, your neck, and
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: slowly you drift off to thoughts of new dreams, new adventures,
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: and new rodeos to come. Good night, everyone in New York, more.
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: Union, no mom thing, no.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: Mo in New York, Long.
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: Union, m
• 54:59
