  Charles: Chris, tell me about your birthday.
• 3:02
  Charles: Yeah.
• 3:04
  Chris: Let's see here, my birthday, it was Monday.
• 3:07
  Chris: I'm 44 years old, and yeah, it was a pretty chill day.
• 3:14
  Chris: Went to the Loveland Chop House for dinner,
• 3:20
  Chris: which I have a photo of somewhere,
• 3:21
  Chris: but apparently didn't put it in the rundown.
• 3:25
  Chris: That's okay.
• 3:26
  Chris: Yeah, I went to the Chop House, got a lovely steak,
• 3:29
  Chris: and I had not been to the Loveland Chop House before,
• 3:31
  Chris: and it was absolutely divine.
• 3:35
  Chris: Beyond that, went to Banana Ball over the weekend,
• 3:41
  Chris: which I'm not gonna talk about much on this episode
• 3:44
  Chris: because next week Mandy will be with us
• 3:47
  Chris: and we'll be able to have our dual Banana Ball experience.
• 3:51
  Chris: But yeah, good weekend, good birthday,
• 3:53
  Chris: and now I'm here with good people.
• 3:56
  Chris: Well, happy 48th, dude.
• 3:59
  Chris: Happy 62nd birthday to me.
• 4:00
  Nora: I'm happy about your birthday.
• 4:01
  Nora: I'm mad about the banana ball.
• 4:03
  Nora: Still mad about that, but it's fine.
• 4:05
  Chris: If it sates you at all,
• 4:09
  Chris: there was a two hour rain delay.
• 4:12
  Nora: Oh, that is sad.
• 4:13
  Charles: Yeah, I heard about that on TikTok, actually.
• 4:17
  Nora: Do they have any fun things that they do
• 4:19
  Nora: during the rain delay?
• 4:20
  Nora: Because they're the bananas, they have to.
• 4:21
  Chris: Yeah, they did a lot of different activities
• 4:25
  Chris: during the rain delay, which we'll talk about next week.
• 4:28
  Chris: But one thing that we'll also talk about is,
• 4:32
  Chris: you know, they had two games in Denver,
• 4:34
  Chris: Friday night and Saturday night.
• 4:36
  Chris: And when you get picked for the ticket lottery,
• 4:38
  Chris: you get to choose which night you wanna go.
• 4:41
  Chris: We chose Friday because that seemed to be
• 4:43
  Chris: the easiest one for everyone.
• 4:45
  Chris: But two issues that might have made things different
• 4:49
  Chris: and made us make a different choice.
• 4:51
  Chris: One, two hour rain delay, which means we didn't get home
• 4:54
  Chris: until one o'clock in the morning,
• 4:56
  Chris: which for Mandy, it might as well be like two days later.
• 5:02
  Chris: She's not good with staying up late
• 5:04
  Chris: or sitting around twiddling your thumbs for hours.
• 5:07
  Chris: And second of all, on Saturday night,
• 5:10
  Chris: Kristen Bell was there.
• 5:12
  Charles: Yeah, I saw that on TikTok too.
• 5:14
  Charles: What the fuck?
• 5:15
  Charles: Yeah, she was singing from "Frozen," right?
• 5:17
  Charles: Yeah, exactly.
• 5:18
  Charles: Yeah. - That's cool.
• 5:19
  Charles: Yeah, and there was like a bunch of kids
• 5:21
  Charles: who were like, "I know this song."
• 5:23
  Nora: I know her voice! Who is this?
• 5:25
  Chris: Yeah, well one of the pitchers
• 5:27
  Chris: I want to say is that one of the pitchers for the Bananas is also a Broadway actor
• 5:32
  Chris: He is and had done that role from Wicked on Broadway
• 5:37
  Chris: And so yeah, Kristen was just running around saying that in the stands and Wicked did she sing?
• 5:43
  Chris: Well, she no, she's probably singing Frozen. Well, she was singing Frozen. But the yeah, the guy was in Wicked. Okay
• 5:53
  Nora: a lot they exploit his voice on the banana ball pitch so I'm familiar with that. I uh I have
• 6:00
  Nora: something that Charles can't keep his eyes off of over here. I'm looking at it right now we'll

  Charles: Justin Bieber was Juggie Brodelstein.
• 15:26
  Charles: (laughing)
• 15:27
  Chris: See Charles, if you brought more stuff like that

  Chris: and less things like the catchphrase guide,
• 15:32
  Chris: I'm a much happier producer.
• 15:34
  Chris: (laughing)
• 15:35
  Charles: Pronunciation, well we can go through
• 15:37
  Charles: some of the pronunciation manuals sometime.
• 15:39
  Nora: Oh, I just got a loud environment.
• 15:42
  Charles: I wonder why.
• 15:44
  Nora: We've got a giggle going.
• 15:46
  Nora: (laughing)
• 15:48
  Charles: Okay, but anyways, we can continue.
• 15:50
  Nora: There's not even the correct letters in Tennessee.
• 15:52
  Charles: Uniceo.
• 15:54
  Video: Illinois starts with a V.

• 16:14
  Chris: Okay, wait a second.
• 16:15
  Chris: So this is a school, right?
• 16:17
  Chris: Uh-huh. - Yeah.
• 16:18
  Chris: Like a school handed these out.
• 16:20
  Chris: Yeah.
• 16:22
  Chris: Are they just like making up textbooks now?
• 16:25
  Charles: Like how does- - It's gotta be AI.
• 16:27
  Chris: It's AI. - I mean, obviously it's AI,
• 16:30
  Chris: but what I'm saying is like,
• 16:31
  Chris: why are they handing out AI materials to kids
• 16:34
  Chris: when that material already exists?
• 16:38
  Nora: That's a great question.
• 16:39
  Charles: That's a great-
• 16:40
  Nora: For the planner company.
• 16:41
  Charles: Yeah, for real, I think that they're,
• 16:46
  Charles: okay, yeah, we'll continue.
• 16:48
  Nora: You're making us pay for something that you used AI for.
• 16:52
  Nora: That's kinda silly in my opinion.
• 16:56
  Nora: Yeah, I'd agree.
• 16:58
  Nora: I think it's nonsense.
• 16:59
  Nora: I think schools should be not using AI explicitly,
• 17:03
  Nora: but I don't have any kids, I just pay taxes,
• 17:05
  Nora: so what does that matter?
• 17:08
  Chris: You pay for everyone's kids.
• 17:09
  Nora: Exactly, okay.
• 17:11
  Charles: Chris, you're absolutely right about the,
• 17:15
  Charles: we already have these textbooks
• 17:17
  Charles: and this information is not changing.
• 17:19
  Charles: Why are we redoing things that don't need to be changed?
• 17:22
  Charles: And it feels a lot like how they change the college books,
• 17:28
  Charles: or just high school books in general, every single year,
• 17:31
  Charles: So there's just a slight different change
• 17:34
  Charles: so that you can't reuse the books.
• 17:36
  Charles: Yeah, I mean that's-- - It feels like that.
• 17:37
  Chris: Yeah, that's for the textbook lobby, which I understand.
• 17:41
  Chris: But you're really telling me that some school administrator
• 17:44
  Chris: thought that this was a better idea
• 17:46
  Chris: than having a book that might be a year or two outdated?
• 17:49
  Chris: Yeah, for real. - Right, right.
• 17:51
  Chris: At least the words are real words in there,
• 17:53
  Chris: even if they're not correct anymore.
• 17:55
  Nora: Yeah.
• 17:56
  Chris: Like, get the hell out of here.
• 17:57
  Nora: Right, 'cause maybe we don't read
• 17:59
  Nora: through the planner all the time,
• 18:00
  Nora: but I know when I was bored,
• 18:01
  Nora: I'd definitely read through my planner
• 18:03
  Nora: if I had nothing else to do.
• 18:04
  Nora: But kids have phones these days, so yeah.
• 18:08
  Nora: Okay, I have another news related item
• 18:10
  Nora: that is actually related to,
• 18:12
  Nora: remember the lady who's roller skating
• 18:14
  Nora: for the first time in Denver?
• 18:16
  Nora: Yes.
• 18:16
  Nora: We have a news story about her.
• 18:17
  Chris: Okay. - Ooh, fun.
• 18:19
  Video: For all the time she's been on planet Earth,
• 18:22
  Video: Heather Walker, just like her last name says,
• 18:24
  Video: has been able to walk.
• 18:26
  Video: Walker?
• 18:26
  Charles: I hardly know her, sorry.
• 18:29
  Video: one foot in front of the other.
• 18:30
  Video: She's pretty good at it.
• 18:33
  Video: (laughing)
• 18:36
  Charles: She's pretty good at it.
• 18:38
  Charles: Go you.
• 18:40
  Charles: Her name's not Pogoer.
• 18:42
  Video: But on August 22nd, she'll attempt a new feat.
• 18:46
  Video: My newest dream is to attempt roller skating
• 18:49
  Video: for the very first time in my life.
• 18:50
  Chris: Dream big, baby.
• 18:52
  Chris: Dream big.
• 18:52
  Charles: I cannot believe that this is an actual news story.
• 18:57
  Chris: Gotta be a slow news day.
• 18:58
  Video: She could just fall straight onto her face.
• 19:02
  Chris: (laughing)
• 19:05
  Chris: Holy shit, they have context.
• 19:07
  Video: In injury or disaster.
• 19:09
  Video: But Heather is inspired by the balance and agility,
• 19:12
  Video: hoping to get that experience
• 19:14
  Video: like some of her other family members.
• 19:16
  Video: She also has experience from one time dressing as a pillow.
• 19:20
  Video: My pillow character was very focused
• 19:23
  Video: on finding warmth by a fire.
• 19:26
  Video: and those motions, the back and forth,
• 19:28
  Video: the warming of the fire might really inspire my students.
• 19:33
  Charles: No shit did they air this on.
• 19:36
  Chris: What station aired this, Nora?
• 19:40
  Nora: She hired a reporter to do this story
• 19:43
  Nora: and she made it for her TikTok.
• 19:44
  Chris: Oh, so this is for her TikTok?
• 19:46
  Nora: This was from her TikTok.
• 19:47
  Chris: I mean, I had a feeling based on the production value
• 19:50
  Chris: of the shots, I'm like, this was shot with an iPhone.
• 19:52
  Nora: Yeah, this is on her page.
• 19:55
  Charles: I mean, this is great marketing, but like, I was like,
• 19:58
  Charles: this is like, like, let's go back to her childhood
• 20:01
  Charles: where she played a pillow.
• 20:03
  Chris: I mean, there's also no like lower third chyrons.
• 20:06
  Chris: I was like, there's no way that's aired on television.
• 20:08
  Chris: Right.
• 20:09
  Chris: It's the lower third that gives it away.
• 20:10
  Chris: I respect the idea for sure.
• 20:11
  Chris: I think that's real fun.
• 20:12
  Chris: I know.
• 20:18
  Video: You could just wear this just in case.
• 20:20
  Charles: Was she actually studying for the first time?
• 20:22
  Charles: It's backwards, it's backwards.
• 20:22
  Charles: The helmet's backwards.
• 20:23
  Charles: The hell?
• 20:25
  Video: [LAUGHTER]
• 20:26
  Video: I'm so worried about your safety.
• 20:29
  Video: Maybe you better do this.
• 20:31
  Video: Her hair, which is so cute, is going
• 20:33
  Video: to get pretty squashed down from that helmet.
• 20:35
  Video: She could break a bone.
• 20:37
  Video: Her helmet could fly off.
• 20:39
  Video: I saw that that clasp was not secure.
• 20:41
  Video: [LAUGHTER]
• 20:42
  Video: Will Walker become skater?
• 20:44
  Video: She's asking as many people who can
• 20:48
  Video: to join her in Cheesman Park on August 22nd
• 20:51
  Video: to see if she can attempt what-
• 20:53
  Video: That's just her voice, isn't it?
• 20:55
  Video: Have attempted and succeeded at.
• 20:57
  Video: It might be.
• 20:58
  Chris: Or she hired a voiceover artist from Fiverr.
• 21:00
  Nora: 'Cause there is somebody tagged in the bio
• 21:06
  Nora: or in the information about the video,
• 21:09
  Nora: and I'm pretty sure she got a local reporter
• 21:11
  Nora: to do the voiceover.
• 21:14
  Video: That the worrying will be left to her mother.
• 21:17
  Video: If she does succeed, she says she does not know what's next,
• 21:21
  Video: but thinks she'll be on a positive roll.
• 21:26
  Video: If I can roller skate without falling,
• 21:28
  Video: then that probably means I could also climb a tree
• 21:31
  Video: as an adult.
• 21:33
  Video: It probably means I could learn how to fold a fitted sheet.
• 21:38
  Video: (laughing)
• 21:41
  Video: Climb up to Everest.
• 21:44
  Video: I could learn how to paint in the style of Picasso.
• 21:49
  Video: scale a light post.
• 21:54
  Video: In Denver, Lindsey Thies, absolutely made up news.
• 21:58
  Video: (laughing)
• 22:01
  Chris: Excellent.
• 22:03
  Nora: I'm obsessed with her.
• 22:05
  Nora: I think she's amazing.
• 22:06
  Chris: Was she actually learning to skate for the first time
• 22:08
  Chris: or was that made up as well?
• 22:09
  Nora: I'm pretty sure that's real.
• 22:11
  Chris: Okay, cool.
• 22:12
  Charles: Chris, this is what we do for a loudspeaker.
• 22:17
  Charles: How we do an ad.
• 22:18
  Charles: We do a fake news thing.
• 22:20
  Chris: I'm down for that.
• 22:22
  Nora: Do we wanna spend a fourth day together
• 22:23
  Nora: and go to Denver, to Fuseman Park on Saturday
• 22:28
  Nora: to go support our friends?
• 22:29
  Charles: That is a lot of time to get that answer.
• 22:31
  Nora: Four days in a row, you guys, four days.
• 22:34
  Nora: (laughing)
• 22:35
  Nora: All right.
• 22:37
  Chris: Update on the school AI story that I found.
• 22:40
  Chris: Oh, it doesn't wanna display.
• 22:43
  Chris: Oh no, it does.
• 22:46
  Chris: The school administrators told a local news organization,
• 22:53
  Chris: the district's executive officer of communications said,
• 22:55
  Chris: "I appreciate you bringing this to my attention.
• 22:58
  Chris: "I spoke with the school about inaccuracies
• 23:00
  Chris: "in their agenda."
• 23:01
  Chris: Wednesday, administrators emailed teachers
• 23:03
  Chris: warning them about, quote, "a lot of mistakes"
• 23:05
  Chris: on pages 19 through 36.
• 23:08
  Chris: Administrators told teachers to have students
• 23:10
  Chris: tear those pages out before taking them home
• 23:13
  Chris: and for teachers to keep the pages.
• 23:15
  Chris: Dang.
• 23:16
  Chris: This is not a misprint.
• 23:17
  Chris: Someone did not look at what they were handing out
• 23:19
  Chris: to the students.
• 23:22
  Nora: It's negligence.
• 23:23
  Chris: Good times, way to go, y'all.
• 23:27
  Nora: All right, so in some happier news.
• 23:30
  Nora: So I have some update videos on some belugas
• 23:34
  Nora: that were recently rescued from Marineland,
• 23:37
  Nora: which was an abandoned aquarium in Canada.
• 23:40
  Nora: And these belugas had basically been abandoned there
• 23:44
  Nora: and they're still being taken care of,
• 23:45
  Nora: but like, nobody was going to visit them.
• 23:49
  Nora: So it was like 20 something belugas had to be brought
• 23:52
  Nora: to different aquariums across the United States and Canada.
• 23:56
  Nora: And so we have set up dates for,
• 23:58
  Nora: I think four or two of them came to the aquarium in Atlanta,
• 24:04
  Nora: and then like six of them are at the Shed Aquarium
• 24:07
  Nora: in Chicago.
• 24:08
  Nora: So I just wanna enjoy some like happy beluga content.
• 24:12
  Chris: I don't like beluga.
• 24:13
  Chris: It's stuck in my teeth.
• 24:16
  Charles: (laughing)
• 24:22
  Charles: Look at them.
• 24:25
  Nora: The entire pod came and said hi.
• 24:32
  Charles: How do you introduce belugas to each other?
• 24:35
  Charles: Slowly.
• 24:36
  Charles: Is it like cats?
• 24:37
  Nora: You just let them in.
• 24:39
  Chris: Yeah, you just let them sniff each other for a while.
• 24:40
  Nora: Yeah, basically.
• 24:41
  Nora: See, that's meeting.
• 24:43
  Nora: That's a bunch of blue goos meeting each other right there.
• 24:45
  Nora: (people talking)
• 24:48
  Nora: A little nervous.
• 24:49
  Nora: And the little ones are the ones from the old aquarium.
• 24:57
  Nora: Also, look how large that,
• 24:59
  Nora: like how much water they have.
• 25:01
  Nora: It's like that's a lot of space, which is great.
• 25:06
  Chris: The Georgia Aquarium is the second largest aquarium
• 25:10
  Chris: in North America.
• 25:11
  Chris: That place is enormous and so much fun.
• 25:14
  Chris: If you get a chance to be in Atlanta, go there.
• 25:17
  Nora: Yeah, go there.
• 25:18
  Nora: It's really one of the best.
• 25:19
  Nora: Like, go to the deep sea or the wide ocean tank,
• 25:25
  Nora: where you can just sit in front of the massive piece
• 25:28
  Nora: of acrylic, like a movie screen,
• 25:29
  Nora: and just watch all of the fish move.
• 25:31
  Nora: Oh my gosh.
• 25:32
  Chris: It fills your entire field of vision.
• 25:35
  Chris: It's really something to behold.
• 25:37
  Chris: And if you've been to the Denver Aquarium,
• 25:39
  Chris: makes that look like a homeless encampment. It's really like there's no
• 25:43
  Nora: comparison. Yeah because they also have the whale sharks. They did lose a whale
• 25:47
  Nora: shark this past year due to health issues but they still have one whale
• 25:50
  Nora: shark and they have rays and they have turtles and oh it's just incredible.
• 25:54
  Nora: Really good spot. So second we've got the shed aquarium. Right now we're looking
• 26:00
  Video: at four beluga whales that came from Marineland Canada that were recently
• 26:04
  Video: rescued. Their names are Acadia, Lillooet, Osiris and Sierra. We're looking... Is this
• 26:09
  Chris: were putting tariffs on Canada because we stole their belugas?
• 26:12
  Chris: Yeah.
• 26:12
  Chris: OK.
• 26:13
  Video: Looking for signs every hour of every day
• 26:15
  Video: that they're making progress, that they're
• 26:17
  Video: swimming in a larger habitat, that they are foraging
• 26:20
  Video: and spending time together and being curious and exploring.
• 26:23
  Video: They're acclimating pretty well.
• 26:25
  Video: A move of this nature is unprecedented and incredibly
• 26:28
  Video: complex.
• 26:29
  Video: There is no other option for these belugas.
• 26:31
  Video: We need to provide the high standards of care and welfare
• 26:35
  Video: for these animals.
• 26:35
  Video: and the only place to do that right now is in aquariums.
• 26:39
  Video: They cannot be released into the wild
• 26:41
  Video: because they have not lived there,
• 26:42
  Video: they haven't foraged on their own.
• 26:44
  Video: They've lived for decades in marine land.
• 26:47
  Video: So that is not an option for them.
• 26:49
  Video: Mm-hmm.
• 26:50
  Nora: But they're now being taken care of,
• 26:52
  Nora: and the Shedd Aquarium is also renowned
• 26:56
  Nora: for the conservation efforts that they do in the wild.
• 26:59
  Nora: And so one of the positive things about a good aquarium
• 27:03
  Nora: is how they can contribute to those conservation efforts.
• 27:07
  Nora: And, you know, they're not taking animals from nature,
• 27:11
  Nora: but they are, you know,
• 27:14
  Nora: reinvesting back into their environment.
• 27:16
  Nora: So I'm just happy that these belugas are, you know,
• 27:19
  Nora: adjusting 'cause they're just really cool.
• 27:22
  Chris: Neat.
• 27:23
  Charles: That's very neat.
• 27:24
  Nora: Okay, found a niche interest on TikTok
• 27:26
  Nora: that I had not realized was a thing before.
• 27:29
  Nora: So we're gonna watch this tear hair video.
• 27:33
  Chris: Wait, is this the Arby thing?
• 27:36
  Chris: Okay.
• 27:37
  Video: On the website, I have an archive
• 27:38
  Video: of all the tear here designs used across the collection.
• 27:42
  Video: You can browse to find any weird ones
• 27:44
  Video: like this footprint one found on Nando's packets.
• 27:48
  Video: But today-
• 27:49
  Chris: Wait, what?
• 27:50
  Nora: His whole account is called tear here.
• 27:55
  Nora: He categorizes the tear here symbol.
• 28:00
  Chris: Well, we know someone who doesn't need
• 28:02
  Chris: to take the autism test.
• 28:04
  Chris: (laughing)
• 28:07
  Charles: I take offense to that, Chris.
• 28:10
  Charles: You really shouldn't, Charles.
• 28:12
  Charles: That feels...
• 28:13
  Charles: (laughing)
• 28:15
  Charles: I mean, you're not wrong.
• 28:17
  Charles: You're not wrong.
• 28:18
  Charles: However, you're on thin ice, buddy, bucko.
• 28:23
  Nora: (laughing)
• 28:25
  Video: I get to add a new one.
• 28:27
  Video: Arby's dropped their new brand design refresh
• 28:29
  Video: across their lineup. - How exciting.
• 28:30
  Video: This is all good with mayo.
• 28:31
  Video: pretty bold statement. Historically, they started out horizontally and then progressed
• 28:38
  Video: through many iterations of vertical design and then for a time back to horizontal. But
• 28:45
  Video: now we're back to vertical. Since the beginning they used the same basic tear here icon, but
• 28:52
  Video: that changes today. The overall design is very minimalistic and it stands out well because
• 28:59
  Video: of it it's easy to distinguish between the different sauces at a glance. But this tear
• 29:06
  Chris: here icon, it's very unique. The color of the horsey sauce container looks like jizz.
• 29:11
  Video: I'm just gonna say. I mean, that's just horsey sauce, man. Your catalog. Go check them out
• 29:19
  Nora: today. So, um, that's wow. Wow. Nora. That like existed. Well, I would not have it. I
• 29:30
  Chris: cataloging interesting historical things, that makes sense.
• 29:34
  Chris: But if you had given me 50 years
• 29:37
  Chris: to think of things to catalog,
• 29:38
  Chris: that would never have come up.
• 29:40
  Nora: Yeah. - Right?
• 29:41
  Nora: I was just fascinated and just a little bit amazed at that.
• 29:46
  Nora: So I have three more here.
• 29:48
  Nora: So, Safael, she is one of my favorite
• 29:52
  Nora: medieval TikTok creators.
• 29:55
  Nora: And we're just gonna jump right into her video
• 29:57
  Nora: because she's gonna getcha.
• 30:02
  Video: But he is talking about the medieval French
• 30:03
  Video: literary influences on the Minions franchise.
• 30:06
  Video: And I'm sick of it.
• 30:08
  Video: In the 12th century Arthurian legend,
• 30:10
  Video: Eric and Enid, written in long poem form
• 30:12
  Video: by Chrétien de Troyes,
• 30:14
  Video: many knights are listed as being present
• 30:16
  Video: for the wedding of the titular characters,
• 30:18
  Video: including a knight mentioned in passing
• 30:20
  Video: named Gru the Solon.
• 30:22
  Video: Is this possibly one of the oldest references
• 30:25
  Video: to the name Gru?
• 30:26
  Video: Gru the Solon. Is that a coincidence? Additionally, the
• 30:30
  Video: names of Gru's adopted daughters are very medieval. Margot
• 30:34
  Video: deriving from Margot with a T deriving from Marguerite, as
• 30:38
  Video: well as Edith and Agnes were all very popular medieval girls
• 30:42
  Charles: name among upper class people.
• 30:44
  Charles: Pause it. Pause it. Pause it.
• 30:46
  Charles: Oh, God. Yikes.
• 30:49
  Charles: It's French. It's just French.
• 30:56
  Charles: Dreamworks is just a fucking French company.
• 31:00
  Nora: I think that's probably true.
• 31:01
  Charles: The minions, the French love their weird little guys.
• 31:06
  Charles: Like they love a little guy who doesn't speak English very like or at all or like a language.
• 31:13
  Charles: Right?
• 31:13
  Charles: Like you've got you've got the minions, you've got rabids, they're French as well.
• 31:19
  Nora: That makes a lot of sense.
• 31:21
  Charles: The you guys will not know this but there's like a character in
• 31:24
  Charles: Expedition 33, a video game.
• 31:26
  Nora: Yeah, I know about it.
• 31:28
  Charles: Yes, who are basically the same kind of things.
• 31:32
  Chris: Wait a second, Nora, did you notice how derisively
• 31:34
  Chris: he's like a video game?
• 31:35
  Chris: (laughing)
• 31:35
  Chris: 'Cause you two aren't knowing the hip stuff.
• 31:38
  Nora: You've talked about it kind of a lot.
• 31:40
  Nora: (laughing)
• 31:41
  Charles: It's a great game, but I just wanted to like-
• 31:45
  Charles: We're cultured, Charles.
• 31:46
  Nora: He's getting there, oh my God.
• 31:48
  Charles: I'm just being nice.
• 31:50
  Charles: I'm being understanding that sometimes
• 31:53
  Charles: I talk about things that you guys don't know about and I'm adding context to the story. No, I get it
• 31:59
  Charles: But but they love their fucking weird little guys. Rafael has more to say about that anyways
• 32:06
  Charles: Oh my god
• 32:07
  Charles: Oh my god
• 32:08
  Video: Itself also has origins in medieval france
• 32:11
  Video: Originally the word minion coming from mignon referred to the king's mignons by the 16th century the early modern time period
• 32:19
  Video: Les Minions, the Minions, was used to refer to the army of twinks maintained by Henry III,
• 32:26
  Video: King of France, who were described by a contemporary as "exceedingly odious as much
• 32:31
  Video: by their foolish and haughty demeanor as by their effeminate and immodest dress,
• 32:35
  Video: but above all by the immense gifts the King made to them." Is this connection between the Minions
• 32:41
  Video: franchise and medieval France really possible? The studio that made Despicable Me and the Minions
• 32:46
  Chris: franchise was Illumination working in partnership or Illuminati with the French animation studio
• 32:55
  Video: MacGuff which they eventually acquired and MacGuff was responsible for animating all the minions and
• 33:01
  Video: stuff which is why there were so many freaking minions at the Paris Olympics a few years ago
• 33:06
  Video: the like you know in all the like opening ceremonies and stuff if you remember that
• 33:10
  Video: and did I just make this video because I've been listening to Arthurian Legends on audiobook
• 33:15
  Video: and I heard the name Gru the Sullen and thought what the hell? Maybe. Impossible to say.
• 33:22
  Video: Maybe.
• 33:27
  Chris: You know, that's one of those videos where I have a hard time discerning whether they're
• 33:34
  Chris: doing it for content or whether they're just really that hyper-focused.
• 33:39
  Chris: I think it's a bit of both.
• 33:42
  Nora: She does wear that costume in every video.
• 33:45
  Nora: And she is a medieval historian
• 33:47
  Nora: and has published papers in French.
• 33:49
  Chris: I think that could be a new game show idea.
• 33:52
  Chris: Are they autistic?
• 33:54
  Chris: Yeah, like.
• 33:55
  Nora: Or is it a bit?
• 33:56
  Nora: Like, yeah.
• 33:57
  Charles: Bit or autistic, you decide.
• 33:59
  Nora: Anyway, I love-
• 34:00
  Charles: Bit-tistic.
• 34:02
  Charles: Ot bits-um?
• 34:04
  Charles: No, that's nothing.
• 34:05
  Charles: (laughing)
• 34:06
  Charles: I tried.
• 34:07
  Charles: I tried.
• 34:09
  Nora: Okay, so this reminded me,
• 34:11
  Nora: This next one reminded me of our idea for Dr. Pepper meal.
• 34:16
  Nora: So I think we just need to take some inspiration.
• 34:19
  Chris: I hate what is worst nightmare.
• 34:21
  Nora: Yeah, I think we just need to take some inspiration here.
• 34:23
  Chris: This is three minutes long, Nora.
• 34:25
  Video: I found this Mountain Dew cookbook
• 34:27
  Video: and I'm gonna cook through the entirety of it.
• 34:29
  Video: And continuing in Badass Breakfast,
• 34:31
  Video: we're gonna be making green.
• 34:32
  Chris: Why is there a Mountain Dew cookbook?
• 34:34
  Nora: We need to look for a Dr. Pepper cookbook.
• 34:36
  Chris: Oh my God, I'm looking this up right now.
• 34:38
  Nora: God damn it.
• 34:40
  Nora: (laughing)
• 34:40
  Video: Now for ingredients, you're going to need six eggs,
• 34:43
  Video: four 12 ounce cans of Mountain Dew.
• 34:44
  Video: Nope.
• 34:45
  Video: Any amount of ham you see fit.
• 34:46
  Video: Three drops of green food coloring.
• 34:49
  Video: Tablespoon of chive.
• 34:50
  Video: I already hate this.
• 34:50
  Video: First thing is we're going to take our Mountain Dew
• 34:52
  Video: and pour it in a skillet that's deep enough
• 34:54
  Video: to hold four cans of Mountain Dew.
• 34:56
  Video: Three drops of food coloring.
• 34:59
  Video: It's green.
• 35:00
  Chris: And you're going to turn it.
• 35:01
  Chris: Wait, 'cause the Mountain Dew is not green enough?
• 35:03
  Nora: Yeah.
• 35:04
  Chris: Wow.
• 35:05
  Video: On that heat, cover it up.
• 35:06
  Video: Not for green eggs and ham.
• 35:07
  Video: And then just kind of allow it to simmer.
• 35:09
  Video: And I know what you're probably thinking.
• 35:11
  Video: Do you?
• 35:12
  Charles: Chris, can you pause it real quick?
• 35:16
  Charles: Can we make a business purchase?
• 35:19
  Charles: Did you find the cookbook?
• 35:21
  Charles: I did on eBay.
• 35:23
  Chris: On eBay?
• 35:24
  Chris: Is it sold out on Amazon?
• 35:26
  Charles: You should cut to my screen.
• 35:27
  Charles: You should cut to my screen real quick.
• 35:30
  Charles: (laughing)
• 35:32
  Charles: Oh my God.
• 35:34
  Charles: As low as $40.93 a month with Klarna though.
• 35:38
  Chris: Also, how much spyware do you have installed
• 35:41
  Chris: on your browser, dude?
• 35:43
  Chris: There's like one, two, three, four pop-ups right here.
• 35:47
  Charles: Hey, uh.
• 35:50
  Chris: Don't mind that.
• 35:51
  Charles: Don't mind that, don't mind that, don't mind that.
• 35:53
  Video: Yeah, okay.
• 35:56
  Chris: Yeah, anyway.
• 35:59
  Video: Which eggs in Mountain Dew?
• 36:02
  Video: Yeah, buddy, I'm sorry.
• 36:05
  Video: In the meantime, you're gonna take each of your six eggs
• 36:07
  Video: and crack them into six bowls, or so it says.
• 36:11
  Video: Personally, I'm-
• 36:12
  Chris: I would do anything for the show and for you guys,
• 36:15
  Chris: but I won't do that.
• 36:17
  Nora: You won't poach eggs in Mountain Dew?
• 36:19
  Chris: No.
• 36:19
  Chris: Meatloaf lyrics right there.
• 36:21
  Chris: Hey, someone gets me.
• 36:23
  Chris: Charles, you complete me.
• 36:26
  Chris: Yeah.
• 36:26
  Charles: Mountain Dew meatloaf.
• 36:27
  Chris: I am Mountain Dew meatloaf.
• 36:29
  Chris: It's the combination everyone needs.
• 36:31
  Chris: I would never cook anything with Mountain Dew.
• 36:34
  Video: I'm just gonna stick with one bowl
• 36:35
  Video: and crack 'em one at a time.
• 36:37
  Video: I'm being insolent here,
• 36:38
  Video: but I don't think I need six different bowls for six eggs.
• 36:41
  Video: That feels like a lot of dishes I don't want to wash.
• 36:43
  Video: Now once your deal's at a simmer,
• 36:45
  Video: and I've been told this is what a simmer looks like,
• 36:47
  Video: so if I'm wrong, tell me in the comments.
• 36:49
  Video: Go ahead and put your eggs in the milk.
• 36:50
  Video: I've been told this is what a simmer looks like.
• 36:53
  Video: Careful not to crack any of those yolks, that's important.
• 36:55
  Video: Then it says to cover the skillet and turn off the heat.
• 36:58
  Video: Just let it poach for five minutes.
• 37:01
  Video: Now the five minutes done,
• 37:03
  Video: you can see what you've created.
• 37:06
  Video: Oh, like a bunch of little alien embryo sex.
• 37:09
  Video: Plate it up, personally I got myself an English muffin,
• 37:11
  Video: little toasted.
• 37:12
  Video: A couple pieces of ham on each side.
• 37:15
  Video: You go on and get your-
• 37:17
  Video: Eggs poached in Mountain Dew.
• 37:19
  Video: (laughing)
• 37:20
  Video: And you add those slightly green abominations on top.
• 37:24
  Chris: Okay, hold on, let's play a quick little game
• 37:26
  Chris: of what's worse.
• 37:28
  Chris: What is worse, the fact that the Mountain Dew cookbook
• 37:31
  Chris: exists or that this guy actually made something in it.
• 37:35
  Charles: I'm reading through an article from Business Insider
• 37:38
  Charles: where somebody cooked through the cookbook
• 37:41
  Charles: and there is a Mountain Dew grilled cheese.
• 37:45
  Charles: It looks horrendous.
• 37:47
  Nora: It really looks bad.
• 37:49
  Charles: Oh my God, it looks so gross.
• 37:51
  Nora: Oh, that is gonna make me not hungry and I'm hungry.
• 37:54
  Charles: Can we cut to my screen real quick
• 37:56
  Charles: just to show off how disgusting this looks?
• 37:58
  Charles: Oh my God, no!
• 38:00
  Nora: I don't think the Mountain Dew is necessary.
• 38:02
  Nora: Oh, yes!
• 38:04
  Nora: Wait, wait, scroll back up. - Mountain Dew mozzarella bites.
• 38:06
  Chris: Wait, scroll back up.
• 38:07
  Chris: I love the headline above that.
• 38:09
  Chris: This was one sweet sandwich.
• 38:11
  Charles: Gross.
• 38:12
  Charles: Look, Mountain Dew green salsa.
• 38:14
  Charles: I could see that working.
• 38:15
  Charles: Okay, maybe? - This all looks disgusting.
• 38:18
  Charles: Let's see if there's anything else that...
• 38:21
  Charles: Bots, green mozzarella bites.
• 38:23
  Chris: Okay, here's the thing.
• 38:24
  Chris: Some publisher out there,
• 38:27
  Chris: one of the like five monolithic publishers decided
• 38:31
  Chris: this idea was worth putting millions of dollars
• 38:34
  Chris: into printing.
• 38:38
  Charles: Because-- - That is wild.
• 38:39
  Charles: It's marketing, man.
• 38:41
  Charles: It's marketing, you know?
• 38:42
  Charles: Two ingredient cupcakes, Mountain Dew and ass, I guess.
• 38:47
  Chris: (laughing)
• 38:48
  Chris: Well, Mountain Dew implies ass.
• 38:50
  Nora: Okay, okay, okay, okay.
• 38:51
  Nora: But I have heard that if you add a can of soda
• 38:55
  Nora: to a box of cake mix, it can be really good.
• 38:59
  Charles: I've heard that. - That's what this is.
• 39:00
  Charles: That's literally what this is.
• 39:01
  Nora: But you don't necessarily need Mountain Dew.
• 39:03
  Nora: Most people recommend the Sprite,
• 39:05
  Nora: like just to not have too much flavor in it.
• 39:08
  Nora: What if you did a cream soda?
• 39:09
  Nora: Ooh, that would be good.
• 39:11
  Charles: A Dr. Pepper.
• 39:12
  Nora: Yeah, right.
• 39:14
  Chris: Yeah, let's just get this over with.
• 39:15
  Chris: Side.
• 39:17
  Chris: Oh, God.
• 39:18
  Video: Sure.
• 39:19
  Video: All right, then you get some chives.
• 39:22
  Video: Then just garnish your beautiful dish
• 39:25
  Video: with some of that-
• 39:26
  Chris: And then throw it in the trash.
• 39:27
  Video: Wow.
• 39:29
  Video: Let's get to it.
• 39:30
  Chris: Oh my God, this is so gross.
• 39:31
  Nora: He had to poach six eggs,
• 39:34
  Nora: and he's only eating two of them.
• 39:37
  Video: I just-
• 39:38
  Chris: Yeah, wasting eggs is just one of the many atrocities
• 39:40
  Chris: this guy is committing.
• 39:41
  Nora: He's gonna keep 'em and reheat 'em.
• 39:43
  Chris: A little bit of salt for this sucker
• 39:44
  Video: would go a long way, I feel.
• 39:48
  Video: Listen, the only thing the Mountain Dew
• 39:50
  Video: is doing for these eggs
• 39:51
  Video: is giving it just the slightest bit of sweetness
• 39:54
  Video: that doesn't absorb as much as it should,
• 39:56
  Video: or maybe it's better it stays away, I don't know.
• 39:58
  Video: But it's not really doing much for the eggs.
• 40:00
  Chris: You know what I've never done?
• 40:01
  Chris: Poached an egg and gone, "This isn't sweet enough."
• 40:05
  Chris: (laughing)
• 40:06
  Chris: You're right.
• 40:08
  Chris: Call me crazy, but I just,
• 40:10
  Chris: I've never run into that problem.
• 40:13
  Video: So don't poach your eggs in Mountain Dew.
• 40:15
  Video: A three out of 10. - Stop it.
• 40:16
  Video: What is this? - I could have told you
• 40:17
  Video: that from the beginning. - Call me weird
• 40:18
  Video: for saying this.
• 40:19
  Video: I'll take that.
• 40:20
  Video: I feel like this would have served better
• 40:21
  Video: to have some type of like maybe slightly savory
• 40:24
  Video: mixed with the sweetness of the Mountain Dew,
• 40:26
  Video: like a sauce, like a hollandaise type deal
• 40:28
  Video: to like, you know, drip over it a little bit
• 40:30
  Video: as opposed to just like pushing the eggs in.
• 40:32
  Video: No, that's even worse.
• 40:33
  Nora: Nothing Mountain Dew.
• 40:35
  Charles: Okay, let's move on to the next one.
• 40:36
  Chris: I like how he said replace the Mountain Dew
• 40:37
  Chris: with hollandaise.
• 40:38
  Chris: Yeah, that's called a fucking egg benediction, jackass.
• 40:42
  Nora: Okay, I have the last one here.
• 40:44
  Nora: And this is, there's an ad in Denver
• 40:46
  Nora: that somebody made a TikTok about,
• 40:49
  Nora: and I need you guys.
• 40:50
  Nora: and you'd specifically probably your opinion on it.
• 40:54
  Video: I'm getting a front row seat
• 40:55
  Video: to the simultaneously best and worst marketing campaign
• 40:58
  Video: happening in Denver Colorado.
• 40:59
  Video: I saw this.
• 41:00
  Video: So this tweet surfaced a few days ago.
• 41:02
  Video: City of Denver's advertising just hole.
• 41:05
  Video: Watering hole, the watering crossed out.
• 41:07
  Video: And it's real, I saw it, I'll put it right here.
• 41:10
  Video: But then on my way home from work today,
• 41:12
  Video: I saw another one of these signs, but it's weirder.
• 41:14
  Video: It's the same idea, but they're advertising just boy.
• 41:19
  Video: Hole and boy, what does that mean?
• 41:22
  Video: Charles is crossing out waters.
• 41:24
  Chris: Is this another pizza gate?
• 41:26
  Video: Yeah, but Charles, I mean, I say it's the best and worst campaign
• 41:29
  Video: because it's the best because I'm making a tick talk about it.
• 41:32
  Video: It's the worst because I don't know what they're advertising.
• 41:35
  Video: Why are you getting rid of water?
• 41:37
  Video: The thing that makes life basically.
• 41:40
  Video: And why are you advertising cryptic words?
• 41:43
  Video: Boy, and oh, what's next?
• 41:45
  Chris: Watering, but you got to pay the troll toll.
• 41:48
  Chris: if you want to get in this boy's hole.
• 41:50
  Nora: As my resident boy and hole expert.
• 41:54
  Nora: (laughing)
• 41:57
  Chris: I need you right back, what does it mean?
• 41:59
  Chris: Oh my God, that's amazing.
• 42:01
  Chris: Nora, that's the best thing you've ever said on this show.
• 42:06
  Charles: I think it's less to do with the hole,
• 42:10
  Charles: less to do with the boy, and more about the water,
• 42:13
  Charles: and what it says about the water.
• 42:16
  Charles: And maybe this is a sign saying like,
• 42:19
  Charles: we're running out of water in Colorado.
• 42:21
  Charles: The Colorado River is drying up.
• 42:23
  Charles: Maybe something along those lines.
• 42:26
  Charles: Maybe it has something to do with the liquid death
• 42:29
  Charles: commercials that are going around right now
• 42:31
  Charles: where Travis Kelsey's brother wants you
• 42:33
  Charles: to send your pee to data centers.
• 42:37
  Charles: Have you guys seen this?
• 42:38
  Nora: No, what is this?
• 42:39
  Charles: No.
• 42:40
  Charles: Hold on, we're watching a commercial.
• 42:44
  Charles: What's his name?
• 42:45
  Charles: Let's try this Kelsey's brother's name.
• 42:48
  Chris: Jason Kelsey.
• 42:49
  Charles: Jason Kelsey Data Center.
• 42:58
  Charles: Here we go.
• 42:59
  Video: We got to my screen.
• 43:00
  Video: Data centers waste millions of gallons of water.
• 43:03
  Video: That's why Liquid Death and Garage Beer have decided
• 43:05
  Video: to team up.
• 43:06
  Video: We want your pee to cool these data centers.
• 43:11
  Video: We want your pee.

  Nora: Oh God!
• 43:56
  Chris: Wow!

  Nora: The light beer of energy drinks?
• 44:02
  Video: So what are you waiting for?
• 44:03
  Video: Go ahead and have another Garage Beer or liquid dense sparkling energy.

  Video: Then send your pee to the A.I. data center of your choice.

  Nora: The suits want us to tell you to not actually send them your pee.
• 44:14
  Nora: We want your pee.
• 44:21
  Nora: Okay, but wait.
• 44:23
  Nora: Give us your pee.
• 44:25
  Nora: Is that pro or anti-data center though?
• 44:28
  Chris: That's anti-data center for sure.
• 44:30
  Charles: Can we just play this?
• 44:32
  Charles: Just keep it on the background?
• 44:35
  Charles: No, no, no, no.
• 44:37
  Nora: Just keep it on?
• 44:38
  Charles: Keep is that the thing where just it just does the sound like every every hour
• 44:42
  Charles: So just like every once in a while, you'll just randomly hear Michael Jackson sound effect. I mean knows another podcast edit
• 44:49
  Charles: I've seen
• 44:53
  Nora: Think it's always funny to have a jump scare
• 44:56

  Charles: either of those things

  Charles: You're not a whole expert. I I'm not an expert on whole in general. Okay, let's just say that
• 45:30
  Charles: I don't need that in my I I don't need my co-workers to

  Charles: randomly appear on this video they were asking about my my weekly live show because I mentioned that I do it and they're like

• 45:49
  Charles: And then my co-host says that I'm a boyhole expert
• 46:00
  Chris: Charles, what do you think?

  Chris: and this is how we save it.

  Charles: So I have some videos too.
• 46:18
  Charles: This first set is kind of one of our favorite
• 46:23
  Charles: kind of videos.
• 46:24
  Charles: It's calling contests.
• 46:25
  Nora: Oh, these are so good.
• 46:27
  Charles: This is a turkey call and a bird call.
• 46:31
  Charles: I can't remember what the second one is.
• 46:33
  Charles: It's all from the same competition,
• 46:35
  Charles: but it's the top three from each category.
• 46:38
  Charles: Cool.
• 46:40
  Charles: (turkey call)
• 46:44
  Chris: That's impressive.
• 46:48
  Chris: (turkey call)

  Chris: (dog howling)
• 47:02

  Nora: Yeah, you can't use-
• 47:15
  Nora: Grandpa's cheating.
• 47:15
  Nora: You have to do it with your mouth.
• 47:17
  Nora: Yeah, that's the whole point of calling.
• 47:19
  Chris: A friend of mine who shall remain nameless said,
• 47:21
  Chris: not throwing this in chat, but is,
• 47:23
  Chris: I want your pee a song from Poultry Geist 2?
• 47:25
  Chris: (laughing)
• 47:29
  Charles: Yes. - I love that.
• 47:29
  Charles: What's next, Charles?
• 47:31
  Charles: So it's the same concept, a different video.
• 47:35
  Nora: Yep.
• 47:38
  Nora: (imitating a bird)
• 47:48
  Nora: Remind me not to piss her off.
• 47:49
  Nora: (imitating a bird)

  Nora: (laughing)
• 47:55
  Nora: What the hell?
• 48:01
  Nora: Ladies!

  Charles: Yes.
• 48:19
  Charles: The deer call, yeah, it looked like he, like.
• 48:22
  Nora: Long in the hand.
• 48:24
  Nora: What?
• 48:25
  Charles: (laughing)
• 48:26
  Charles: We need to go back to that one.
• 48:30
  Charles: (imitating phone ringing)
• 48:32
  Charles: Or the husband calling contest.
• 48:33
  Charles: Yeah.
• 48:34
  Chris: He went into that one with both hands.
• 48:36
  Charles: Yeah.
• 48:36
  Nora: Yeah, no, I do love a husband calling contest.
• 48:38
  Nora: Those ones are better.

  Video: I'm about to flick the small cupboard of excitement for Kevin T. Kevin. No Kevin T
• 49:06
  Video: No, we're king. No Kevin T. No, what the hell is this?

  Video: And we grab a few items out for Kevin T, and there they are.
• 49:30
  Video: Three spoons. This one has floral motif.
• 49:34
  Video: This one looks kind of Art Deco. And this one's like a little scoop,
• 49:37
  Video: like a tiny bowl of soup. This is your ladle,
• 49:40
  Video: and you dump the soup in the bowl for Kevin T.
• 49:42
  Video: Charles, what is this? - I don't know!
• 49:43
  Nora: This is the DC Plate King. - I don't know what any of this means.
• 49:48
  Nora: That's DC Plate King if I've ever seen it.
• 49:50
  Charles: Dude, you keep saying that and I don't know what that means.
• 49:52
  Charles: That's who the creator is. - Nora, that doesn't mean anything.
• 49:55
  Nora: I'm pretty sure that it's got to be.
• 49:59
  Charles: And then what he does is he spins this carousel.
• 50:02
  Charles: There's still 50 seconds left of this.
• 50:04
  Charles: While he's ringing this bell. - Yeah, he does do this now.

• 50:47
  Nora: You keep saying that.
• 50:48
  Nora: Nora, what the hell is DC playing?
• 50:50
  Nora: I'm really into Ledges recently,
• 50:52
  Nora: where he's been doing all of the ledges on things.
• 50:57
  Charles: What does that mean?
• 50:58
  Charles: Are you having a stroke right now?
• 51:00
  Charles: I feel like I am.
• 51:01
  Nora: But I think he is.
• 51:02
  Nora: (laughing)
• 51:03
  Charles: What is this content?
• 51:06
  Nora: It started out as just like,
• 51:08
  Nora: he would kind of rate forks and spoons,
• 51:11
  Nora: and then it got more quirky,
• 51:13
  Nora: and then he just like really went to the full weirdness level. And so the one that I saw
• 51:21
  Nora: recently was like he was he was like looking at a wall and he's like, Look how many good
• 51:24
  Nora: ledges there are. And he like, put his fingers on all the ledges like you go up here and
• 51:29
  Nora: then you go up here and then you go down here and then look at this legend and you can go
• 51:31
  Nora: all the way over here on this ledge. And he just like bouldered the ledges with his hands.
• 51:35
  Nora: And he's just a guy who also really likes cutlery. And he has that little rug that he
• 51:41
  Nora: he lays out on things.
• 51:43
  Nora: I think he's just a nonsense guy.
• 51:44
  Chris: Okay, so it's just random nonsense, got it.
• 51:46
  Nora: I think he's a nonsense guy.
• 51:48
  Chris: Okay, okay.
• 51:50
  Nora: He's a nonsense guy.
• 51:50
  Chris: I kept trying to find the kernel of meaning in any of it,
• 51:55
  Chris: and there just isn't any.
• 51:56
  Charles: I know, I was watching it and I was like,
• 51:57
  Charles: am I the one having a stroke?
• 51:59
  Charles: No, he is.
• 51:59
  Charles: 'Cause I was like, I cannot understand
• 52:02
  Charles: what is happening here.
• 52:03
  Chris: It kinda seems like the announcer
• 52:07
  Chris: on a home shopping channel.
• 52:09
  Chris: Yeah.
• 52:10
  Chris: just kind of describing what's in front of them
• 52:12
  Chris: because they have to fill air time
• 52:13
  Chris: while they're trying to sell people cheap shitty jewelry.
• 52:17
  Chris: It's like, oh yeah, this is kind of nice.
• 52:18
  Chris: Oh, there's this cup on my desk.
• 52:20
  Chris: Like, okay, cool.
• 52:21
  Charles: It's inter-dimensional cable is what it feels like.
• 52:23
  Charles: Okay, I get that.
• 52:26
  Charles: We don't have to watch the rest of the video.
• 52:29
  Nora: He's a nonsense creator, but if you're interested,
• 52:31
  Nora: go find his Ledge videos.
• 52:32
  Chris: Nonsense and creator are two words
• 52:34
  Chris: that should not go together in my mind.
• 52:36
  Charles: This next one is to set the mood
• 52:38
  Charles: for the next set of videos.
• 52:40
  Charles: So this is a Mortal Kombat X Scatman mashup song.

• 1:02:12
  Nora: So, okay, so we kinda hinted at this last week
• 1:02:16
  Nora: in our, what, Around the Net.
• 1:02:20
  Nora: Chris hasn't heard about this.
• 1:02:22
  Nora: I think you have heard about the Water Lily Way Off before.
• 1:02:25
  Nora: But the Water Lily Way Off has officially started.
• 1:02:29
  Nora: So, we're gonna start with Denver and their entry,
• 1:02:33
  Nora: and we're gonna watch their entry,
• 1:02:34
  Nora: and Chris and I can chat about it.
• 1:02:36
  Chris: Real quick, Nora, what is the Water Lily Way Off?
• 1:02:38
  Nora: Oh, right.
• 1:02:39
  Nora: So for those of you who didn't watch last week,
• 1:02:42
  Nora: which lame, go back and watch it.
• 1:02:44
  Nora: The Water Lily Way Off is an annual event
• 1:02:47
  Nora: that the Denver Botanic Gardens started a few years ago.
• 1:02:50
  Nora: And basically they have challenged all of their,
• 1:02:54
  Nora: anybody who grows a water lily,
• 1:02:57
  Nora: to see how much weight their water lilies can hold
• 1:03:01
  Nora: and what their diameter of the water lilies are.
• 1:03:05
  Nora: so they generally use like one species so it's the Victoria cruziana
• 1:03:13
  Nora: I think is the is technically is the scientific name but they all grow these
• 1:03:19
  Nora: massive you know these big water lilies and see how much these lily pads can
• 1:03:25
  Nora: grow so this is just the first the first week it goes next week some are still
• 1:03:32
  Nora: waiting until next week to weigh off so they're getting some extra time on it
• 1:03:36
  Nora: but we're gonna start with Denver because Denver is the host and they they
• 1:03:41
  Chris: have like a Western theme for their way off videos this year. Excellent.
• 1:03:47
  Nora: Turn it up.
• 1:03:49
  Video: Water lily weigh off!
• 1:03:51
  Video: Bag of suspense!
• 1:03:54
  Video: [laughter]
• 1:03:55
  Video: [drumming]
• 1:03:57
  Chris: I will say their social media game is on point.
• 1:04:00
  Nora: So much fun with it.
• 1:04:01
  Nora: (laughing)
• 1:04:11
  Video: If you ask any Denverites how this summer's been,
• 1:04:13
  Video: they'll tell you it's been hotter
• 1:04:15
  Video: than a flapjack on a griddle.
• 1:04:17
  Video: It's been pretty miserable, but you know who has loved it?
• 1:04:20
  Video: Our water lilies.
• 1:04:21
  Video: We're gonna do some testing for optimization this year.
• 1:04:24
  Video: So we've got this newer leaf that's ringing in
• 1:04:28
  Video: at just about 40 and a half inches.
• 1:04:30
  Video: We've got one more that's 41, but it's a little bit older,
• 1:04:34
  Video: so it's got a few more holes.
• 1:04:35
  Video: Now the leaf will survive just fine with those holes,
• 1:04:38
  Video: but for our purposes, what that means is it's gonna start
• 1:04:41
  Video: take on water fast, count the weight of the water.
• 1:04:45
  Video: So I don't want anything that I can't measure the weight
• 1:04:47

  Video: Victoria Longwood Hybrid, this is your moment baby.
• 1:04:54
  Video: Don't be jealous of our very fancy PPD pad protection device
• 1:04:59
  Video: and we're gonna see how much she holds.
• 1:05:01
  Video: Each sandbag is 15, so we're gonna try laying down 30
• 1:05:04
  Video: at a time, so we're gonna do 30, get another 60 on there.
• 1:05:10
  Video: Let's go for 75 if we can in the middle.
• 1:05:14
  Nora: You wanna distribute the weight
• 1:05:15
  Nora: as evenly as you can on them.
• 1:05:18
  Chris: Oh, oh, there we go.
• 1:05:19
  Chris: Man down, man down.
• 1:05:21
  Video: These leaves are just fine after we weigh them.
• 1:05:23
  Video: We can just brush all this water out.
• 1:05:24
  Video: They've got little notches on the ends of the leaf
• 1:05:27
  Video: so that water can escape.
• 1:05:29
  Video: So we did 75 in sandbags plus our five pound PPD.

  Nora: So like Denver, we're not in a tropical growth zone.
• 1:06:05

  Nora: I think I might have more...
• 1:06:51
  Nora: Maybe it'll hold more
• 1:06:52
  Nora: because it won't sink down his ass
• 1:06:54
  Nora: because it has more of a lip
• 1:06:56
  Chris: Mmm yeah
• 1:06:57
  Nora: I haven't watched any of these videos

  Chris: Get a shot of it. Mmm. There it is. I
• 1:19:09
  Chris: Like that one a lot more. Mmm
• 1:19:12
  Charles: That's so good.
• 1:19:16
  Nora: These are delicious.
• 1:19:16
  Nora: Oh shit.
• 1:19:17
  Charles: Wow.
• 1:19:17
  Charles: That is...
• 1:19:18
  Charles: Want to keep the other two for yourself?
• 1:19:20
  Nora: We can try them.
• 1:19:21
  Nora: Up to you.
• 1:19:22
  Chris: We have so many things to try, Nora.
• 1:19:24
  Charles: Keep them for yourself.
• 1:19:26
  Charles: We got a lot to try.
• 1:19:26
  Chris: Though I will say that lemon is heavenly.
• 1:19:30
  Chris: Holy shit.
• 1:19:31
  Chris: There's some serious curd going on.
• 1:19:32
  Nora: Yeah.
• 1:19:34
  Chris: Where'd you get those?
• 1:19:35
  Nora: The Turkish.
• 1:19:35
  Nora: So I got them at the Turkish Cafe Co.
• 1:19:38
  Nora: Which is here in Fort Collins.
• 1:19:40
  Nora: And they were about right across the street from the studio about 1150 a piece
• 1:19:45
  Nora: Definitely a little splurge item but like so dang worth it like so dang worth it
• 1:19:52
  Charles: Oh my god, the guy's getting beat up in the background. Sorry
• 1:19:56
  Charles: Started playing I was very confused. Wow. Those are so good. Yeah, are you sure you guys don't try the other ones?
• 1:20:03
  Nora: Yeah. Yeah. Okay. We're gonna try everything else. We got so much stuff. Okay, so those are super rich
• 1:20:09
  Nora: They're so rich.
• 1:20:10
  Chris: I think if we have all of them, we'll probably all die.
• 1:20:13
  Nora: It's true.
• 1:20:14
  Charles: Okay, here's the plate of everything else.
• 1:20:17
  Charles: So let's do from the things that I can grab.
• 1:20:20
  Charles: Let's wash this down first.
• 1:20:23
  Nora: Great idea.
• 1:20:24
  Nora: Wait, where's mine?
• 1:20:25
  Charles: We're sharing one.
• 1:20:26
  Charles: Oh, okay.
• 1:20:28
  Charles: Backwash.
• 1:20:29
  Charles: Are you sure?
• 1:20:30
  Charles: Yeah.
• 1:20:30
  Charles: So Charles, tell us what we've got here.
• 1:20:32
  Charles: So we talked about this last week.
• 1:20:35
  Charles: This is the Grillo's Pickles Liquid IV.
• 1:20:41
  Charles: So we're going to wash this down
• 1:20:44
  Charles: with a dill pickle flavored drink.
• 1:20:48
  Charles: What does it smell like?
• 1:20:49
  Charles: Does it smell like dill?
• 1:20:49
  Charles: It smells very dilly.
• 1:20:51
  Nora: Mm-hmm.
• 1:20:52
  Nora: Smells like dill.
• 1:20:53
  Chris: Smells very dilly, yeah.
• 1:20:55
  Chris: Smells like pickle water.
• 1:20:58
  Nora: All right.
• 1:20:58
  Chris: That's literally what it is.
• 1:21:00
  Nora: Cheers, Chris.
• 1:21:01
  Chris: Cheers.
• 1:21:02
  Nora: This is for the Potts girlies out there.
• 1:21:07
  Chris: Okay.
• 1:21:09
  Chris: It's not as, it's not as pickly as I expected.
• 1:21:15
  Chris: It's more of a mild pickle.
• 1:21:16
  Nora: Yeah.
• 1:21:17
  Nora: It's like a watered down pickle juice.
• 1:21:19
  Chris: Yeah.
• 1:21:20
  Chris: Yeah.
• 1:21:20
  Chris: I don't, I don't dislike it.
• 1:21:24
  Chris: I don't dislike it.
• 1:21:25
  Chris: I think if you wanted, if you wanted a liquid IV, like if you wanted some electrolyte water,
• 1:21:31
  Chris: but you didn't want something sweet,
• 1:21:33
  Chris: I could see this being useful for that.
• 1:21:35
  Charles: Yeah. - Yeah.
• 1:21:36
  Charles: I'd say it would mix well with a lemonade.
• 1:21:38
  Charles: Yeah. - That would be pretty good.
• 1:21:40
  Nora: Yes. - It would be great
• 1:21:41
  Charles: in a lemonade. - I agree.
• 1:21:43
  Nora: Yeah, it's not bad.
• 1:21:44
  Nora: I think it's better than some of the other Liquid IV flavors
• 1:21:48
  Nora: 'cause it doesn't have that sweetness.
• 1:21:49
  Nora: Yeah. - But Liquid IV
• 1:21:51
  Nora: is known to have some of that really electrolyte flavor.
• 1:21:57
  Chris: Okay, next. - Yeah, that's not bad at all.
• 1:21:59
  Chris: I mean, I don't know that I would reach for it
• 1:22:01
  Chris: like on a regular basis, but yeah,
• 1:22:04
  Chris: if you don't want something sweet, that's a good choice.
• 1:22:06
  Charles: Next up, we've got the candy corns from Nerds.
• 1:22:09
  Charles: This is a brand new Nerds.
• 1:22:12
  Charles: Let's see, get into the shot there.
• 1:22:14
  Charles: Nerds candy corn, which is their Halloween candy corn,
• 1:22:19
  Charles: which is very interesting.
• 1:22:24
  Chris: Which one is that?
• 1:22:25
  Chris: Is that the-
• 1:22:26
  Chris: That's the more pointy one.
• 1:22:27
  Chris: The more pointy one.
• 1:22:28
  Chris: Okay, got it.
• 1:22:30
  Chris: Yeah.
• 1:22:35
  Nora: I like the crunchiness of Nerds
• 1:22:36
  Nora: and I'm missing that with these.
• 1:22:39
  Charles: I like it better than candy corn.
• 1:22:41
  Charles: Candy corn's gross though.
• 1:22:43
  Charles: Okay.
• 1:22:43
  Nora: I'd rather eat regular candy corn.
• 1:22:46
  Chris: Okay, I mean, I don't feel,
• 1:22:48
  Chris: I'm not one of those people that feel strongly
• 1:22:50
  Chris: about candy corn one way or the other.
• 1:22:53
  Nora: Yeah.
• 1:22:53
  Chris: But this feels wrong.
• 1:22:55
  Nora: Yeah.
• 1:22:55
  Chris: There's something about it that feels wrong.
• 1:22:57
  Chris: Not in a taste way, but I think because of the,
• 1:23:03
  Chris: excuse me, because candy corn has such a specific texture
• 1:23:07
  Chris: when you're chewing it, your brain expects
• 1:23:09
  Chris: the candy corn flavor and the fact that you're getting
• 1:23:12
  Chris: nerds instead is like causing some sort of
• 1:23:16
  Charles: cognitive dissonance.
• 1:23:17
  Nora: I agree, I agree.
• 1:23:19
  Charles: Okay, hot tamales, my favorite snack of all time.
• 1:23:23
  Charles: Has a new flavor out, tropical heat.
• 1:23:26
  Nora: Ooh.
• 1:23:27
  Charles: I'm excited for this.
• 1:23:27
  Charles: I love hot tamales.
• 1:23:29
  Charles: This is fruit flavor.
• 1:23:30
  Charles: So there's fiery lime, there's mango chili,
• 1:23:32
  Charles: which is the orange one, pineapple picante,
• 1:23:35
  Charles: which is the yellow one.
• 1:23:39
  Charles: Okay.
• 1:23:39
  Nora: Ooh!
• 1:23:44
  Chris: I tried the orange first.
• 1:23:47
  Chris: Ooh.
• 1:23:50
  Charles: I like that a lot.
• 1:23:51
  Nora: Yeah.
• 1:23:52
  Video: Ooh, that's got some heat to it.
• 1:23:53
  Charles: The orange is nice.
• 1:23:55
  Charles: That's nice.
• 1:23:55
  Nora: Mm-hmm.
• 1:23:58
  Nora: Mm, that's good.
• 1:24:01
  Chris: Now I'm gonna try the one that looks like it was made
• 1:24:04
  Chris: with Mountain Dew from that cookbook.
• 1:24:05
  Chris: Mm-hmm.
• 1:24:08
  Nora: Woo.
• 1:24:09
  Nora: Mm-hmm.
• 1:24:10
  Nora: Yummy.
• 1:24:12
  Chris: I could eat a box of those.
• 1:24:13
  Nora: Mm-hmm.
• 1:24:14
  Chris: Yeah, that's solid.
• 1:24:16
  Nora: That lime one is really good.
• 1:24:18
  Charles: Hell yeah.
• 1:24:20
  Charles: Okay.
• 1:24:21
  Charles: Yeah, these are a win, I would say.
• 1:24:22
  Charles: These are great.
• 1:24:23
  Charles: Next up, uh, Krispy Kreme is doing their Pokemon themed donuts right now.
• 1:24:32
  Charles: So these are the Krispy Kreme Pokemons.
• 1:24:34
  Charles: There's a jiggly puff.
• 1:24:36
  Charles: There's a charred mander and Chris has the peaked a chew.
• 1:24:43
  Charles: Let me get into the shot here.
• 1:24:46
  Nora: Cute.
• 1:24:46
  Charles: Beautiful.
• 1:24:48
  Charles: All right.
• 1:24:49
  Charles: Cheers.
• 1:24:50
  Charles: Cheers.
• 1:24:50
  Nora: Those are edible too, huh?
• 1:24:51
  Charles: Yeah.
• 1:24:52
  Charles: I'm not gonna eat too much of this.
• 1:24:54
  Charles: I'm already like sugared out.
• 1:24:58
  Nora: Mine's chocolate filled.
• 1:25:01
  Charles: Ooh.
• 1:25:05
  Charles: Mine's just like a-
• 1:25:07
  Charles: Strawberry?
• 1:25:07
  Charles: Normal donut.
• 1:25:08
  Charles: I don't think it is, is it strawberry?
• 1:25:10
  Charles: I can't tell, it's very bland.
• 1:25:12
  Chris: Yeah, to me it just seems like a normal
• 1:25:14
  Chris: Krispy Kreme donut with a Pikachu on it.
• 1:25:17
  Chris: Yeah, that's kind of what I'm getting to.
• 1:25:19
  Chris: Which I wasn't, I mean, I don't know what I was expecting,
• 1:25:21
  Chris: but yeah, it's very, I'm going to try the candy. Mine has chocolate in it.
• 1:25:28
  Charles: I mean, you could say the guys are edible,
• 1:25:34
  Chris: edible, barely. Okay. So, I mean, it's a Krispy Kreme donut,
• 1:25:38
  Chris: so it's good, but there's nothing other than the decoration.
• 1:25:44
  Chris: There's nothing like specifically different about its flavor. Yeah. I mean,
• 1:25:48
  Chris: so you're getting this strictly for a presentation reasons, right?
• 1:25:51
  Charles: So yeah, it's fine.
• 1:25:53
  Charles: No, you've almost destroyed that fucking donut dude.
• 1:25:57
  Charles: She did say she was hungry before we went live.
• 1:25:59
  Charles: Hell yeah.
• 1:26:00
  Charles: Hell yeah.
• 1:26:00
  Charles: Eat that donut.
• 1:26:01
  Chris: It was a hungry boy.
• 1:26:02
  Charles: All right.
• 1:26:04
  Charles: The final one.
• 1:26:04
  Charles: I'm a little disappointed in, in what I found.
• 1:26:08
  Charles: I'm not like, so I'm paying those hot tamales are awesome.
• 1:26:11
  Charles: Okay.
• 1:26:11
  Charles: No, no, no.
• 1:26:12
  Charles: The hot tamales are great.
• 1:26:13
  Charles: This one here.
• 1:26:14
  Charles: I was looking for the chicken and waffles Oreos that are out now, which I could not
• 1:26:21
  Charles: in any stores. However, I did go and get the BTS Oreos.
• 1:26:28
  Nora: Okay.
• 1:26:31
  Charles: Which we can cut to the other camera. BTS Oreos, brown sugar pancake, K-pop Oreos.
• 1:26:39
  Chris: So for those of you who are just listening, the BTS Oreos have a purple sandwich color,
• 1:26:45
  Chris: And then on one side is just the normal Oreo, but on the other side are
• 1:26:50
  Chris: BTS specific things so I have two cookies one says leads to us
• 1:26:55
  Chris: Which I assume are our lyrics and another one says our biggest voice
• 1:27:00
  Charles: BTS army for those who are listening who are just listening to this. I am so sorry for tasty little treats
• 1:27:08
  Chris: No, it's just misophonia town, all right, let's let's try these Oreos
• 1:27:18
  Charles: That is way too sweet.
• 1:27:23
  Nora: It reminds me of the s'mores flavored Oreos
• 1:27:26
  Nora: which were too sweet.
• 1:27:29
  Chris: You know what?
• 1:27:31
  Chris: I like it.
• 1:27:33
  Charles: You can have them.
• 1:27:36
  Chris: I like it.
• 1:27:37
  Chris: I don't know that it quite tastes like pancake,
• 1:27:40
  Chris: but it also doesn't not taste like pancake.
• 1:27:43
  Chris: You definitely get the brown sugar, that's for sure.
• 1:27:44
  Chris: I do agree with that.
• 1:27:45
  Chris: I get the brown sugar, I get like a maple,
• 1:27:47
  Charles: but it's like, that is sweet, man.
• 1:27:50
  Chris: It is pretty sweet, but I don't know
• 1:27:52
  Chris: that it's necessarily sweeter than a normal Oreo.
• 1:27:55
  Chris: It is.
• 1:27:56
  Charles: They're very sweet.
• 1:27:57
  Nora: It is sweeter than a normal Oreo.
• 1:27:58
  Chris: I mean, maybe because you have the cream
• 1:28:01
  Chris: plus the brown sugar.
• 1:28:02
  Nora: I think it's the brown sugar that makes it too sweet.
• 1:28:05
  Nora: I get that.
• 1:28:05
  Nora: 'Cause it's very sugary.
• 1:28:06
  Chris: It is very sugary, for sure.
• 1:28:09
  Chris: See, I'm not gonna sleep until next week now.
• 1:28:13
  Charles: The best Oreo? - I do like it though.
• 1:28:14
  Charles: The best Oreo? - Mm-hmm.
• 1:28:16
  Charles: Lemon Oreos. - Mm, they're so good.
• 1:28:18
  Charles: Lemon Oreos are bomb. - Mm-hmm.
• 1:28:22
  Charles: They're so good.
• 1:28:23
  Charles: I feel like I'm 100 years old being like,
• 1:28:24
  Nora: the lemon ones are so good!
• 1:28:26
  Nora: (laughing)
• 1:28:26
  Chris: Oh yes, yes, the lemon ones.
• 1:28:29
  Chris: You know what else is bomb, Charles?
• 1:28:32
  Chris: Your ability to segue to the end of the show.
• 1:28:35
  Chris: (laughing)
• 1:28:37
  Nora: Okay, so great news everyone.
• 1:28:39

  Nora: We're gonna tell you all about that.
• 1:28:48
  Nora: I'm actually going, I'm not gonna pretend
• 1:28:51
  Nora: like I'm going and then not go.
• 1:28:54
  Nora: Mandy's gonna be back next week and talk about Banana Ball.
• 1:28:58
  Nora: And I'm gonna go eat pretty much all of these.
• 1:29:02
  Nora: So, I guess I'll see you guys later.
