- speaker-0: year speaker-1: It's not happy new year, Michael. speaker-0: It's not happy year. Do you have an expiration date on when we say happy new year? Like when we wish you a happy new year like Larry David does? speaker-1: You I think you have like the I think it depends on on what day New Year's falls on Yeah, if you if it falls on let's say just like a Monday You have until probably like the weekend or maybe you have that weekend to to say happy New Year But if it falls on like a Wednesday you have till Sunday, you know I think there's I think what but if you have it on a Saturday, then you have the whole week until Saturday speaker-0: True, yeah. I think, speaker-1: Seven to ten days, seven to ten days. speaker-0: Seven to 10 days or seven to 10 business days? speaker-1: No, seven to 10 days business to because business days every two weeks. It's too long. You can't be saying Happy New Year. ⁓ Come past MLK day. I think that's a good rule. Yeah, right. speaker-0: Cause you're coming back after like vacations and stuff. So you got a little bit of leeway depending on the last time you saw the person, right? But like if I haven't talked to you, if I haven't seen you, you know, and it's, it's February, no, no, you're, you, you ran out of happy new year time. speaker-1: I think it should be more of a thing where we start celebrating more cultures New Year's. I'd be really for the cow Cinco de Mayo is a big deal, but that has nothing to do with America. We should celebrate Chinese New Year. I think it'd be a lot of fun to just throw a Chinese party. speaker-0: Chinese party speaker-1: It'd be amazing. Are you kidding me? Get some Chinese food. I mean, it'd be fantastic. Pandas. Exactly. Get some pandas. It's not a bad idea. I'm honestly, I mean, you also have St. Patrick's Day. I'm a little upset that Chinese New Year hasn't caught on earlier. Yeah, it's in the middle of February, like when you really need another holiday. speaker-0: Get the big ol' Panda Express. ⁓ pandas. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Cause we go through a pretty hot streak of holidays, know, starting Thanksgiving. Yeah. Shit. Even Halloween, right? Halloween kind of kicks off the holiday season in my opinion, you know. speaker-1: Oh, for sure. like February, February is tough. People need people in February. You gotta lean on your neighbor. So that's why I'm thinking that you need another party mid February. speaker-0: Where are we? Are we Year of the Tiger? speaker-1: ⁓ I have no idea. speaker-0: I wonder what year we are. 2024 was year of the dragon. speaker-1: What is it? Zodiac? speaker-0: Yeah, Chinese Zodiac. Let's see. speaker-1: It's the year of the fire horse. Yeah, fire horse. ⁓ Nope. Fire horse. specific. speaker-0: Fire, fire horse. It's not just. but That is very, very specific. mean, if we're looking around us right now, yes, everything is on fire at a galloping pace. speaker-1: No, this is a good thing. speaker-0: Is a fire horse a good thing? speaker-1: Well, I mean, I like it. It says, this year blends the natural charisma and independence of the horse with a forceful element of fire, which occurs only once every 60 years. Astrologers note that 2026 is a auspicious, a spickus, spickius. speaker-0: Auspicious. Auspicious. speaker-1: What? Auspicious. Time to make bold moves and pursue ambitious goals. However, the intense energy can cause impulsiveness and hesitation. speaker-0: Hmm. Auspicious describes a favorable situation, a lucky sign, or a set of conditions that suggest future success is likely. Huh. Well... speaker-1: ⁓ it says it's going to be a good year for me. It says the dragon, snake, horse and goat high momentum periods. Fuck yeah. speaker-0: I don't even know what my zodiac is. speaker-1: ⁓ Well, it just says 1990, so I gotta, I'm gonna look it up. I'm pretty sure I'm the horse. speaker-0: Yeah, I'm a metal goat. That's kind of cool. Yeah, 91 year the metal goat. speaker-1: Are you really? I was the metal horse. ⁓ wow. speaker-0: Cool. That's like, it's pretty badass to be metal something. speaker-1: I think I'd rather be fire, be honest with you. speaker-0: Yeah, I don't know. I just picture of like a horse on fire, you know, and and right now everything kind of seems like it's on fire. speaker-1: rare is the metal horse. I mean, everything always on fire. Let's be honest. When is something not on fire in our lives? speaker-0: Um, from probably 1999 when they released the mummy. speaker-1: Seriously, honestly, since since since 9 11, it's it's been just cycle after cycle. Yeah. speaker-0: It's just been one thing and now and now speaker-1: You we can go before it. No, we can actually go before 9-11. I've heard some weird things about the Oklahoma City bombings. ⁓ Yeah, I mean, I don't know enough to speak on it, but I heard there's some weird things that we should look into with like FBI people were the ones that actually blew up the building. speaker-0: For sure, we need to do a whole episode on the OKC. speaker-1: Yeah, I don't know enough about it, speaker-0: while speaker-1: It's been a whirlwind. We've seen probably 12 once in a lifetime disasters in our lives. speaker-0: Do you feel like that phrase is starting to lose its luster once in a lifetime? We've seen a lot of once in a lifetimes. It's like, well, yeah. Here we go again. speaker-1: But that's, I feel like every generation sees her once in a lifetime. people lived through prohibition for 10 years, you know? You Civil War, once in a lifetime. speaker-0: True, yeah. Yeah. speaker-1: There's a lot of woodstock, woodstock once in a lifetime. Everyone's got good and bad. speaker-0: Let's see, how many once in a lifetime's have millennials lived through? 2008 global financial crisis, COVID pandemic, global inflation surges, artificial intelligence boom, numerous historical natural disasters, geopolitical shifts. speaker-1: I had to live through natural disasters and geopolitical shifts. speaker-0: Yeah, I mean shit, the biggest hurricane was like what? 1888, like right after the Civil War ended, a couple years after. speaker-1: was an ice age that people forget about covered in glacier speaker-0: Were people? We're like... I don't think we were humans yet during the ice age, right? Neanderthals is what I'm saying. speaker-1: Absolutely. No, no, no, actually there were several different races of humans. Neanderthals were just one of the few. ⁓ The Neanderthals were just kind of the strongest. And they found out actually their brains are about as big as ours. But anyways, they were like the way more athletic, scary ones. But we didn't beat them with their smarts. ⁓ humans were definitely around because the last ice age was like 12. Well, the younger Dryus was like 9 000 years ago so we were definitely and humans have been around for 300 000 years is the latest date speaker-0: So how many years was it between from the Ice Age to the Pyramids? speaker-1: So, the younger, so what happened was, okay, so if we back up like 15,000 years ago, the earth was starting to get warm. I don't know about if it's exactly our climate now, but it was starting to get to a place where people could live comfortably. it wasn't, well, parts of it were, you did have north and stuff, but it wasn't, the world wasn't a frozen snow globe. ⁓ And then, so there was, speaker-0: It wasn't. speaker-1: The beginning of the Younger Dryas, I think, is like 12,800 years ago. that, so what that happened was there was all of sudden this crazy drop in temperature. And I'm not exactly sure what happened. I think what they were saying is that, I mean, no one's sure, but it either a comet or solar flares. And what happened was it shot the, much debris and so much stuff into... into the atmosphere where there was just a cloud of gray where the sun couldn't penetrate. So it was just this fucking, just put us back into the ice age for about 1200 years. So there was a 1200 year span where things were just frozen. I mean, there was still places to live near the equator and such. That's also where they think like the Sahara used to be very green and that's a potential place for old civilizations that was much more fertile. So still places to live. wasn't like everything was crazy, but there was still, ⁓ you know, it wasn't, there was a big, big drop in temperature. ⁓ And then at the end of the younger dry is 12,000, ⁓ 1200 years after the beginning of it, there was another cataclysm, which that was the melting of the polar ice caps where they again, they're not sure if it was an asteroid or ⁓ solar fair or whatnot, but something ⁓ melted the at the the North American ice caps like quickly. There was just a sudden surge in cooling water going into the ocean. And that started to bring us back into where we are now with our atmosphere. But also with that melting of the ice caps, we did lose a lot of land. Like for example, you used to be able to walk from Sicily to like Italy. There used to be no land between that. And then also... like Indonesia and Australia, those types of smaller islands and whatnot, those used to be very connected as well. exactly. there's probably there's that's the other thing is people say is like, there's probably a lot of where do most people live near the coast? It's beautiful. And so there's a lot of areas around the world that have been gobbled up by ⁓ sea levels rising, not because of sea levels rising how we think they are today, but right because of speaker-0: There's a speaker-1: the glaciers melting and then that just sudden drop. But so that's the thing is archaeologists, I think they do push back where they say that it wasn't like a sudden, all the sudden huge height in water, like the water going high, the water rising. They said that it took gradual like 15 to 30 years, but there's no proof of that from my understanding. don't speaker-0: Interesting. So, Pangea then must have been well before Younger Dryas. speaker-1: Way before Younger Way, way, way before Younger Dryas. But that's the thing is so, but that's where like Gobekli Tepe comes into play because Gobekli Tepe is dated to kind of where the end of the Younger Dryas is. So that's like the oldest thing that we have now. Sure. From artifacts. And if you think about it, Sumer, and that isn't till like 5000 years after that. speaker-0: So like the ancient Sumerians were after Goebbels. speaker-1: Sumer in Mesopotamia, what we were taught was like the oldest civilization ever. It's like, I believe it started like 6000 BC. speaker-0: I didn't do too much homework on go blacky tepe. Say that. Say that. back to the tepe. Now that, what, that's in Turkey? Yeah. Or is that in, where's the- speaker-1: It's pot belly hill. It's in Turkey. speaker-0: Or is Machu Picchu? speaker-1: Machu Picchu is in Mexico or Peru? speaker-0: Peru, yeah. So was that, no, no, no, that was way, after. Machu Picchu was way, way, way, way after. That's 15th century. speaker-1: I don't think anyone really knows. speaker-0: That's well, that's what that's what Wikipedia says. It's a century speaker-1: Fuck off suck a big fat one. Yeah. I don't think anyone really knows to be honest with you. speaker-0: That's what that's yeah, I don't know. I've never really done homework on it Machu Picchu, but that's interesting about go back late Tepe, you know speaker-1: It's very interesting about Gobeka Utape is that it seems to have been buried on purpose because it doesn't seem to be, it almost seems like a time capsule just because like it doesn't, there was no like kind of landslides or anything like that because all the pillars are still perfectly upright in place. And if there was any sort of natural disaster, you know, it would have just knocked that shit over. So it seems to have been buried on purpose. And we've only excavated, I think, excavated probably like 5 to 10 percent. They still haven't touched a lot. speaker-0: What do they think is? Like a city or like? speaker-1: They don't know because they don't know because the thing is that there there wasn't any signs of like animal bones or anything like that. So it doesn't it seems to have been like hunter gatherers that were there. But that's what doesn't make sense is because if you're a hunter gatherer, you don't have time to build things like that. You're too busy trying to find food for the day. speaker-0: your nomadic like Mongolians or yeah okay speaker-1: So maybe agriculture, something like that, where they found able to, or maybe just the food was plentiful there and they were able to finally settle down and do something. So no one really knows. But there are crazy carvings in it, like 3D carvings, you know, where it's weird because it's like you're supposed to be a hunter gatherer. How do you know how to carve something like a 3D like coming off of the speaker-0: Yeah, I'm looking at some of these pictures. There's like heads like yeah carved out heads out of and there's like a lion one Well, that looks like a gnome speaker-1: Yeah. Pillar 43 is the most famous of the ones they found so far. And the thought process of that one is that they some people speculate that it's actually kind of like that the star map, you know, like we did with the Hoover Dam where we have like the star map. So people know that that's when it was built. People say that that that's kind of a star map with Sagittarius in the moon. and Scorpio, and so you can see a couple different constellations. And then if that is true, that time period when that was in the sky was right around the end of the Younger Dryas, I believe so. But also, that's the other thing too, is my thought is always curious of where, how did we all have the same zodiac signs? There's no way that you, like cultures from thousands of years in between each other. speaker-0: Wild. speaker-1: are looking up at the same star and going like, yeah, that's a scorpion. Like, we can't even fucking do that. speaker-0: Yeah, that is peculiar to say the least, right? Because like even the Greeks and the Romans, they were looking at that, right? And coming up with the same conclusions and go Beckley Tepe, right, is a thousand, thousands maybe? Yeah, then the Greeks and the Romans, right? So yeah, that is a little peculiar. speaker-1: shoulder. speaker-0: I'm gonna have to look into that because that's, well, mean, like even the pyramids, right? You had obviously the pyramids of Gaza, right? But then what? Maybe about the same time you had the same ones in like Mexico and Central America? speaker-1: ⁓ I guess no one knows because I mean I know it knows when they were actually dated Yeah, I just feel like everything could be speculated Well, all we know is that civilizations I think the one commonality between all the civilizations that the older shit is on the bottom where the everyone just kind of built on top of each other sure we do that with our cities as well We're whacker right speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: But I mean, the older stuff has always been at the bottom, the further they dig, the older that they find. But I don't know, because the pyramids, because when you carbon date, you can't carbon date stone or rocks. You can only carbon date the stuff that's in between the... so you can only speculate so much. so I know that the pyramids with Kofu, they say it's like 2500 BC. speaker-0: Yeah, yeah, let's see. don't know about Machu Picchu. Yeah, well, Machu Picchu, think, if speaker-1: They say it was built in the 1400s. speaker-0: 15th century, yeah, so 1500s. Well, that's maybe when it was either discovered or, I don't know, I just did a quick wiki of it. I didn't really dive into what the history was there, but I know that that's, I don't think it's as peculiar. think it's, is it listed as one of the seven wonders of the world? speaker-1: dinner. I mean it should be. speaker-0: think so, because you got, okay, well, this doesn't make sense. Yeah, it is definitely, Petra is one of them, Great Wall of China, Christ the Redeemer in Brazil, ⁓ the Colosseum and the Taj Mahal are all seven wonders. But. speaker-1: I mean, at Taj Mahal, we kind of know how we did that, ⁓ speaker-0: Yeah, well, was a prince that built it for his wife or something like that. But that wasn't very old, like at all. Yeah, let's see. Giza pyramids, 2560 BC. Petra was 40 AD. So the pyramids are by far the oldest. The Christ the Redeemer in Rio, 1931. Taj Mahal was 1643. And then... Machu Picchu was 1450 AD. Great wall of china. speaker-1: I can't be a wonder. Great Wall of China as well. Like we know how you did that. It's not a mystery. speaker-0: slaves. They kind of built all of it, if you think about it, right? Like the Coliseum, pretty sure slaves did that. Definitely. speaker-1: ⁓ That's the pyramids they That's kind of for debate too. So the archaeologists and Egyptologists say that it was not slaves that it was like craftsmen and They found the graves and apparently they were like well-fed individuals. I don't know how you could tell by bones. I'm sure they're right But they said that there wasn't any slaves, but I think speaker-0: The slaves thing is more of like a biblical characterization that it was the Israelites and I guess the Jews at the time, right, were the ones that were in slavery, right? And then Moses and Aaron and that whole thing, right? But I've never heard like anybody really back that up outside of a biblical sense, you know? speaker-1: Yeah, I don't know. I'm not saying that's my thing is that if you're going by the archaeologists, so they say that the Great Pyramid. that's it's actually like the third pyramid. The first pyramid that they say was ever built was a pyramid of Jozer and actually Emotep was the was the. ⁓ It was the architect. Emotep is like the architect of that. OK. And it's a it's a foot pyramid. You could tell. speaker-0: Sorry. speaker-1: And then the next pyramid, believe, is the pyramid of ⁓ the Red Pyramid, was Kufu's father. Khafre? No, Kufu, Khafre is Kufu's son. ⁓ But Kufu's dad was responsible for the Red Pyramid. And I think it's impressive, but there's still some flaws there. Did they collapse? speaker-0: Okay, I got it backwards. Didn't one of them like collapse on the inside or something? speaker-1: I don't that I'm not sure of that I'm not sure of but then you get to Kufu's pyramid which is the first pyramid the biggest pyramid of Giza and here's the thing so they say that it was built within 20 to 30 years ⁓ off of stone and copper saws and tools and and then there's 2.3 million stones in it weighing approximately like 600 tons and they say that it was only 10,000 people that did that Makes no sense. speaker-0: Yeah, the math doesn't really math on that one. No, now I wouldn't be surprised if they did have some sort of like ancient technology, right? So like I was learning about the pyramids and I remember this very clearly from second grade. I think it was they had a bunch of logs, right? Or in this case, I think they got PVC pipe for the example, right? But then they had somebody sit on a chair on a piece of speaker-1: Math's not mathin'. speaker-0: plywood and then they were able to push them and the logs would roll right so it wasn't dragging point being right is that I guess for the non skeptic out there looking at how these were built I guess it makes sense I don't understand how they got them that high though like I understand building the base but like these things are pretty fucking tall right speaker-1: Mm-hmm. Well, it's not even yes, but also so here's the thing is the heaviest stones were quarried from a granite 500 miles away and they weigh 70 tons. So how did you get 70? I mean, yes, the wood would work to an extent. I don't know if the wood would work to 70 tons, but either way, how'd you get 70 tons in the air and perfectly place it that way? speaker-0: but also how did you get 70 tons out of a quarry? Cause that's gotta be pretty fucking deep too. So you're talking about lifting 70 tons up what? At the beginning, right? Maybe 50 feet. speaker-1: I don't know because there are hundreds of feet up in the air. There are like 300 feet in the air with I'm saying is chamber. speaker-0: pulling it out of the quarry, even to get to the sea level, and then only doing it in 30 years. mean, that's... speaker-1: Yeah, yeah. So that's the other thing is, it's right by the Nile River, so maybe by boat, but I can't imagine the Egyptians being, if they're only building with copper and stone tools, making a boat that can hold a 70-ton rock. Right. And then the other option is through the mountains. So, mean, obviously the river sounds more logical, but the thing too is I'm sure people are saying, oh, the ramp, the ramp, the ramp. When you get to a certain extent of pulling that much weight, you can only have like a 10 degree ramp for it to actually work. And for that to work, that ramp has got to be at least a mile long for you to solidify that. And then it's also got to be made out of things that can hold 70 tons. So it can't just be made out of dirt and all this other gravel and stuff. has to be something that would be able to hold that much weight. And if it's something that that's solid, you've would imagine there'd be evidence for a ramp somewhere that holds that much, you know, stuff. It's not like they cleaned up after themselves and took all the ramp stuff down. Like that doesn't... speaker-0: We got the last block in place. Great. Now what? Clean all this shit up. All right. So for frame of reference, right, we're talking about one 70 ton block, right? speaker-1: Yeah, clean it up, damn it. There's multiple of them in there. speaker-0: Right, of course, there's multiple of them, but the Edmonds Fitzgerald was 13,000 tons empty. So we're talking about what? ⁓ I mean, a boat that sank, right, at 13,000 tons empty, right, and then moving one 70 ton block, and you look at thousands of years of technological differences, right? That still, I mean, that doesn't really add up in my brain anyway. of how do you move something like that with limited. And okay, so you can even think about, so it's not the Sahara, right? Well, it was the Sahara, but it's not as we picture it today, where it's all sand. It did have grass and it was more of like a plains type of environment. But even then, the amount of, resources is finite in that area to be able to move blocks like that. Like you would have to, I mean, clear cut miles and miles and miles and miles of wood, even build one ramp, right? Let alone the whole thing. speaker-1: And also, like, do you realize how comfy the civilization has to be for you to just take on this project on the side every day? Like, things gotta be going really good to just have, let's say it's 10,000, like that many people just working on this every day because the Pharaoh wants you to. I don't know. That just doesn't add up. And the other thing, go ahead. speaker-0: right? Well, I was just going to say like, yeah, I think Egypt at that time, I mean, I don't know about how much large trade routes were going on that probably not a lot, right? So it was still probably more or less a hunter gatherer civilization, right? Like we don't have the trade, maybe to India, right? You might have some of that, you know, but. speaker-1: Those civilizations aren't civil enough to be even trading with. speaker-0: Exactly. mean, even when you get into like Alexander the Great and his conquering of up to India, right? We're not talking about like established trade routes, right? Yeah, exactly. They weren't necessarily going across the Red Sea, you know? Exactly. yeah, very finite. And this, I'm guessing this is where all the theories of how the pyramids were like actually built. The conspiracy theory plays in. speaker-1: haven't even started with like the it being the circumference of the earth and that the crazy voodoo stuff. The other thing too is that so there's a couple different stones that the pyramid is built out of. So the inside of like the Keynes chamber that's that that it's a specific granite that they got from 500 miles away that they line the inside in and then the outside the casing stones are limestones from from right there in the area. Why did you have to go 500 miles? What was so important to get the specific granite to put in there? If it's just a tomb, why would you just do the whole thing in limestone and just be done with it? Because it's all right there. Why do you have to go down there and grab the granite? speaker-0: I don't know what and they were in. Were they in the Bronze Age yet? speaker-1: Yeah, so copper, yeah, because they would use copper saws. What they say that they did is that they would make a dent into the wood or to the rocks there, the stone, and they get a copper saw and then they would get some sand and some water and poured in there and that would help cut the stone. However, there has been videos of people doing this modern times and you got like maybe a quarter of an inch in like an hour. So. speaker-0: And they say it took 30 years to build. Top to bottom. speaker-1: Yep. Yeah. And then not only that, but you lined it to perfect, almost perfect, true north, true north, south, east and west is the other thing. And then ⁓ if you, there's something special about the number 42,300 and I don't really understand it. I'm not going to pretend that I do, but there are things that if you multiply the height of the pyramid by 42,300, speaker-0: And speaker-1: you get the exact longitude of the earth's circumference and if you multiply the base of the pyramid by 42,300 it's the exact lateral distance around the earth. speaker-0: The Great Pyramid when multiplied by 43,200 are 99.7 % accurate relative to Earth's dimensions. Could it be that once they were covered in limestone, they were actually 100 % accurate? speaker-1: It doesn't seem like coincidence. Isn't that kind of weird? Like that's not a weird, like that just, that seems too weird to be a coincidence. speaker-0: Definitely. So, okay, so put the tinfoil hat on. What do you think happened? Like if there was an intervention of something, right, and this wasn't copper saws and wooden ramps, right, what do you think is the most, I guess, feasible or plausible solution to this pyramid problem? speaker-1: how they built it. I don't know. I'm kind of in the camp where it's something that is so obvious and so smart that if we saw them do it, be like, fucking course. Like, that's what they did. But they have to be gifted in some other, maybe they just kind of know the stress points of all the rocks and they're able to just chisel it away. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: Maybe demi gods were real, I don't know. Right. I don't know, because also it's not even the getting all the stones. It's also, again, just kind of how perfect it is. Sure. Now. It's not by accident. speaker-0: Right. So, I mean, like the big ones, obviously the History Channel, right, did three seasons of Ancient Aliens, and that's where this started, right? ⁓ There's another one about, ⁓ actually, Atlantean, so Atlantis, being part of it, supposedly. speaker-1: I can kind of see there is a thought that like the Egyptians were the inheritors of the Atlantic civilization and the Atlanteans went down in the younger dryas cataclysm. speaker-0: See now that makes sense, right? speaker-1: I mean it makes sense, there's no evidence of any of that. The only evidence of Atlantis is Plato and a couple people talking about it from second hand sources. speaker-0: Yeah, there are some people saying that Egypt is not Atlantis. Two nations, completely different, different cultural. speaker-1: Yeah, so yeah, Egypt is not Atlantis. No, no, no, no. speaker-0: but like inherited or maybe people that migrated from. speaker-1: Yes, once Atlantis went down, they moved into Egypt. Like they were the, yes. speaker-0: Yeah. That is interesting. I've never spent too much time on Atlantis. I love that movie though, the Disney one. Yeah, they're, I think they're making a live action of it. And the trailer that I saw it now, it could have been a fan creation though too. And whatever live action one that I saw was like spot on. Like it looked amazing. Like a shot for shot remake of it. speaker-1: never watched it. Is it good? speaker-0: The Atlantis Disney movie? I love it. I think it's kind of a hidden Disney gem, Atlantis Lost Empire. Because Michael J. Fox, I think the side characters in the movie are great. Like the French dude who loves explosives, fucking hilarious. And like the whole thought of it, you know, of how, what is his name? Milo, I think is the main character. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: It was like his crazy scientist uncle discovered it or found out where it was, then he got a book, but it's like set at the turn of the century. ⁓ I think it's pretty good. It's not too campy or cheesy, you know, but it's kind of- They do, in the movie they find Atlantis. Yeah, and it's like this whole civilization and they got like flying cars and shit. speaker-1: Find Atlantis? Where were they? speaker-0: ⁓ I can't remember. It was like way, way underground. Like they had to dig for it. then it was like behind like some waterfall. I think they had to, they had to go into the ocean and then they found like the bottom of the ocean and then like went even further underneath that. And they were like living in this sphere of, I don't know, protected, I don't know, magic shit. I haven't seen the movie in a while, so. kind of piecing it together from what I remember. But I remember being pretty solid, you know? The toys were great, the free ones at McDonald's. But Jim Varney's in it. Back in Ernest, Ernest scared stupid in that movie. He does one of the voices, yeah. But, ⁓ speaker-1: Go back to the 90s. speaker-0: Well, I think that what came out? 2001? 2? Maybe? 99? Perhaps? I don't know. But so, okay, we got a little off track there talking about Disney movies and Atlantis, which, I mean, could be an episode in and of itself, right? Talking about Atlantis. That's what they think happened to Amelia Earhart is that she actually, no, she found Atlantis like somewhere in the. ⁓ speaker-1: Down with Atlantis? speaker-0: Bermuda Triangle. That's one of the theories. Yeah, that she went down in the Bermuda Triangle, but then ended up finding Atlantis, like along the way, and she just broke out. speaker-1: ⁓ The CIA knows exactly what happened to her. speaker-0: ⁓ for sure. They know everything. Or they don't know anything. And we give them way too much credit. Could you imagine like the whole conspiracy about a government agency, just being perpetuated on one lie, that they're just pretending that they know and they're truly just so incredibly incompetent that like. speaker-1: No. Sounds like a TV show. Right. Sounds like it might be real though. Right. speaker-0: They're they're they're so dumb that like these things keep on accidentally happening like JFK actually really wasn't assassinated but that like ⁓ Accidental discharge is what happened so then they created Or they they created the conspiracy to hide the fact that they were incompetent You know or like they framed Nixon because it was them stealing it, but they're like ⁓ No, it was Nixon Nixon did it speaker-1: was very What if that lawyer was never supposed to spill the beans about magic? They weren't supposed to let the world know about that. So they threw out the other theory about JFK getting killed because they kind of let magic be real. speaker-0: Shit, they knew about the magic bill. They found it, god damn it. Who dropped it? I knew I should have fixed that hole in my pocket. So now what's this thing about the pyramids and the power plant? I know we've kind of touched on it in some episodes, but like, what is that? What is that theory? What's that thought process? speaker-1: God damn it. So the reason why people think it's a power plant, well first, the one thing why people don't think it's a tomb is because in all the other burial sites that you see, like when you found King Tut and a lot of other ones in the Valley of the Kings, the whole thing is covered in hieroglyphs. It literally tells us the artifacts, all that stuff. So even if it was raided, as some people say, where the where the month that they've never found a mummy in a in a in a pyramid either. ⁓ But even if it was, yeah, they've never found a mummy in a pyramid. Not once. But if they did, if they did, like, let's say ransack and took everything, you can't take the hieroglyphs off the wall. So there still should be some sort of hieroglyphs or something on the wall, ⁓ which is one kind of thing. And then so there's three different chambers. So you have the but there's the lowest chamber. And then there's the Queen's chamber and then the King's chamber. And so the lowest, it sits on top of the water table. And so what this one Christopher Dunn guy believes is that they took some sort of mix. He doesn't know what it was, but some sort of mix of things. And there's different shafts that go into the Queen's chamber, go like ventilate out, going up. And then there's a couple other ones. couple other shafts that do go but they don't go all the way out. Like it's not a complete air shaft. And so what he thinks is that there was this mix of whatever to create hydrogen and some other chemical. And then with the water coming from the water chamber, it would ring through the granite and perpetuate this sort of sound because the King's chamber is actually perfectly tuned to F sharp. What's so interesting about F sharp? speaker-0: Sure. Course. No, I'm just saying like the the forty three thousand two hundred right the the perfect alignment with the stars and then you know the chamber tuning exactly to f-sharp like speaker-1: to F sharp. Yeah, yes. And so they think that the the sound and it would go through the pyramid and the vibrations and through those different cascades in the chains chamber. And there used to be that that golden block nugget on top of the pyramid to when it was when it was intact. And so gold is obviously a great conductor when it's brought to a fine, fine amount. Sure. And so they hit they think that that's a way that it generated power because also all the limestones, like if you look at what the pyramids actually looked like in pictures, it was like bright white. So the limestones was covered in some sort of casing stones to get some sort of light as well. I don't know. It's a weird, weird thing. speaker-0: So if it was a power plant, right? And it was conductive, what was it powering? speaker-1: That's a great question, because nothing's ever been found. speaker-0: was like if it was generating power, right? Could they have theoretically built the power plant portion of it and then encased the rest of it in a pyramid and use that to build other pyramid power plants? speaker-1: So here's the, I'm in the school of thought that the Egyptians found the pyramids. I don't think the pyramids were built by them. I think that they did do a ⁓ like a major revamp on them during Khufu's time. We do that with artifacts all the time too, trying to preserve them, work on them. I think the Egyptians found the pyramids and then try to kind of bring them back. speaker-0: Do think it was the Atlanteans that immigrated to Egypt and then found them? speaker-1: Maybe I don't know. So here's the thing also is that this one guy, he said he he's a naval dude. So he studies water, all the stuffs of the sea. And he believes that there's like signs of of salt water, like towards the peak of the pyramids. He thinks that there was actually a big flood that came through there from the Persian Gulf and the pyramids were underwater for a little while. And so that would have kind of taken away of anything as well. I know it's a weird thought. speaker-0: That is weird. I kind of like that theory though that the Egyptians found it. speaker-1: You know? Cause also it's weird with the sphinx too. Cause the sphinx, do you know about the sphinx? speaker-0: somewhat, I know we've touched on it a little bit, but elaborate. speaker-1: Robert Schrock and John Anthony West, there's some, when they studied the Sphinx, the Sphinx when we found it was buried in sand. The only thing that was up was its head. So it was getting pummeled with the wind. So there is a lot of wind erosion in the front, but most of it's been buried in sand for quite a while. And when they dug it up and started excavating it, they found these water erosion marks. And it was clearly like, this had to have been some fucking heavy rain. for it to carve into the bedrock this deep. Egypt has been a dry county for quite a while. And so the last time that they had significant rainfall was like 10,000 years ago. And so there's a thought that the Sphinx was made like 10,000 years ago. And the other thing too is people think that obviously it looks like it's a lion, right? Like the head carved in. And so they believe that the Egyptians carved that head in because the face was so unrecognizable because also the Egyptians were really good at just, ⁓ what's the word I'm looking for? They're really good at ratios. they were really, when they made statues, it wasn't out of sync or like giant head, tiny body. Like they were pretty good about their ratios. So for them to build a lion body and then such a tiny head. would it really add up to like what the Egyptians were really known for at the time. ⁓ that's why they think it was a lion's head. And so if you go, if you look at the Sphinx, it houses, it looks at the spring equinox or spring solstice. ⁓ summer solstice, spring equinox. It's the equinox. the sun rises right Right at that, the Sphinx is looking right at the sun when it rises on the spring equinox. And the last time that there was a time where that during the time of Leo, because you know, we have like our zodiac signs, we would call it the Chinese. So about time of the younger dryest period was also the age of Leo. And so the Sphinx was a lion, age of Leo, that same time period. just a lot of weird things. And then also the pyramids, if you go back to also the time of the younger dry, it's like 10,800 years ago, the pyramids line up perfectly with Orion's belt. speaker-0: Yeah, I knew about that one. Them lining up with a Ryan's belt. Now, I have never heard that about the Sphinx of repurposing the face, because that makes a lot of sense. speaker-1: Yeah, because the ratios are way off. And again, the Egyptians were known for that. Right. They were known for like really good ratios with their statues and stuff. speaker-0: Well, yeah, mean, to get tuned something specifically to F sharp, right? That has to be very like coordinated, you know? Do sound like that, you know? So that's crazy. I did not know any of that. I mean, I knew about like the water thing a little bit, but yeah, now that makes me kind of wonder like, yeah, why did they like, you know, if they did build the Sphinx, why did they do it like a, you know, four year olds cartoon drawing of a cat? You know, like, that's peculiar. speaker-1: And then also right at once the great pyramids were built Pyramid building goes way downhill like just not even close like just completely fucking forgot how to do it. So If you put in so much like pride into these pyramids what you would imagine that something that you would pass along to the younger generation to keep building, know Monumental significant pyramids and somehow you just fucking forgot speaker-0: Right, now here's a post about the Egyptian society and economy. Because the question is, matter how or no matter when you believe the pyramids were built, did the Egyptian society have an economy large enough to sustain the effort? know? Yeah. There's really no answer to it. There's one that says, have a degree in economics and I always ask this question. Like, when did you have a lot of available resources and wasted labor? speaker-1: Fair question. speaker-0: Right? You start large public works to keep money moving, I guess, and people employed. I mean, I guess that kind of makes sense, right? Like you have to do something in order to have the exchange of goods and services, something, we're going the power plant, right? Like to keep an economy going, right? Like. I'm just going to build this thing for the sake of building it so I can pay him and he can employ these people so then they have money to put back into the economy. Like, I ⁓ guess that kind of makes sense, you know? Hit me, yeah, of course I wanna know. speaker-1: ⁓ You want to know my theory? Okay. So, ⁓ again, I'm in the school of thought that the pyramids were found by the Egyptians, not built. So I think that the Egyptians found the pyramids and realized that there's some magnificent structure. And with those tunings, people say they have some sort of like weird spiritual experiences in there, you know, with the sounds and whatnot. Sure. I think that they were just getting drunk and using it as a fucking amusement park. speaker-0: Can we go to the pyramid today, Mom? We were there yesterday. I want to go into the chamber again. like the idea. I mean, yeah. mean, it was so like, okay, put yourself in the shoes of somebody who just emigrated across, say, most of Europe, right? Or at least the other side of the Black Sea, right? And you stumble across these giant fucking pyramids, you know? and you go inside, because who's not gonna take a detour into that? know? Exactly. And you find out it's really fucking cool. Like, yeah, I'm gonna set up shop down here. You know? We got a river, we got this cool auditorium. speaker-1: I think it just did something cool to people. know, like how the monkey just like gets drunk off the fruit on accident and just like, ⁓ I'm going to keep eating this fruit where they just stumbled on in like, ⁓ I just had a real cool spiritual experience. And like people started doing that and it just became part of their lives. Like they just settled right outside Disney World, baby. I do the exact same thing. speaker-0: Yeah, mean all of Kissimmee, Florida, right, is built around Disney World. Let's just be honest, all of Florida is built around that. That's interesting. Now, do you think there's any, so okay, let me preface this first, right? Going back to the hieroglyphics, right, that are inside these pyramids, and even some of the other like either Sumerian or ⁓ Babylonian structures, right? speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: like Petra and I think they're, I don't know if they're in the, ⁓ what is it? The fucking Greek, anyway, there's like carvings, right, of one specifically being a helicopter looking thing, right? And then other ones of like guys in ⁓ spacesuits or astronauts, right? Do you think that there's any weight to... say like extraterrestrial involvement? I mean, I know that's what everybody kind of like jumps to, right? And I think at this point, it is kind of like a cop-out, right? Of I can't explain this thing, so I'm gonna say aliens, right? But if we look at the hieroglyphics of it all, right? And how these are carved, whether before or after people arrived or while they were building it, right? Do you think that's like, hey, I just kind of fucked up with my chisel? And I made this thing it was supposed to be a canoe, know But I sneezed and all of a sudden now it looks like a fucking helicopter because we know what helicopter is or do think there is actually any type of like terrestrial involvement speaker-1: ⁓ well, let me let me back up a little bit first where there is one, ⁓ hieroglyph within the ku fu pyramid, but it's highly speculated that the guy who found it put him put it there himself that he so he could say that he found some something in the pyramids. Yes. Okay. Yeah, he was ⁓ but back to your question. ⁓ I speaker-0: Yeah speaker-1: I went to college and I have seen a lot of people draw pictures or paint on acid, know, just for the fun of things. And so, again, it could be just people just trying to kill some time and just draw on what comes to their mind. I can't imagine that the aliens be coming up in an Apache. speaker-0: That doesn't make Creedon's Clearwater Revival, you know, and all of a sudden we do it in NAMM, thousands of years later. speaker-1: I think that the Apache is our civilization type of thing. It is weird, it is weird, but maybe it's something else that they're trying to draw. speaker-0: This person or this Wikipedia thing says that it is actually two ⁓ hieroglyphs like fudged together. speaker-1: Yeah, we no idea. speaker-0: Yeah, but it is very easy. speaker-1: I have just been drawn to like a fucking dick. We have no idea. speaker-0: ⁓ you want to talk about dicks? mean, the Greeks put dicks on everything. Everything's got a dick on it. speaker-1: The Egyptians weren't obsessed with dicks, you know? speaker-0: Right? All I got for entertainment around here is my dick and this pyramid that I've been inside of 55 times now. speaker-1: And we're no different. Yeah, maybe they just go there for it. It's one of those movie theaters. speaker-0: Right? Right, yeah, thankfully you carve a dick on after you're done and that's your ticket. speaker-1: And let's be honest, we were not much better. We were still obsessed with dicks. We the whole Epstein file. Law and Order SVU has been going on for 25 years. speaker-0: Yeah. Right, yeah, there's entire companies built around dicks, specifically. The largest, most trafficked internet sites in the world of all time are about dicks, specifically. speaker-1: 82 % of websites. speaker-0: Dicks. even inside the... What? 23%, right? Is probably dick somewhere. If you look hard enough, you'll find it. speaker-1: Okay We might be worse now that I think about it. speaker-0: ⁓ for sure. think we're definitely worse. Yeah, think humanity in general has always been perverted, you know. speaker-1: They're just a bunch of perverts. ⁓ yeah. Dude, I mean, he needs to be perfectly legal. Are you kidding me? speaker-0: Right. Yeah, exactly. That's how things were done, you know, up until... speaker-1: Hundreds and thousands of years ago. speaker-0: Fuck, up until shit, 16, 1700s. Right? Right. You know, that's you get sold to some dude and trading for their largest goat, right? And you're 14 and that's how the world worked for a long time, you know, which is super fucked up to think about. But that's that's how civilization prospered. Right. speaker-1: somebody's job Thank God we got some Liam Neesons in the world now. Right. I'll take people back. speaker-0: Now, do you know anything about the Sumerian civilization and whether it was before or after the Egyptians? speaker-1: ⁓ the Sumerian was supposed to be like 6,000. That's supposed to be like the civilization. Sumerian Mesopotamia is supposed to be like what kicked off. speaker-0: Yeah. Yeah. ⁓ there is that- ⁓ what is that fucking movie? ⁓ geez, what is it called? The, the, the fourth kind. Slapshot, that's a fucking great movie. ⁓ the fourth kind. So it's a, it's a alien movie, it's about abduction. speaker-1: I know. I watched it at your place. speaker-0: Yeah, dude, it's a wild movie, right? But the end of that movie, right? ⁓ It cuts off in its Sumerian language, right? Is it? Yeah, and that's what this whole thing, like the whole movie is kind of like based on that, that it was Sumerian, the Sumer culture was influenced directly by aliens. So the, text that you read in ancient Sumerian is actually extraterrestrial text, right? So they taught us and all of Babylon was actually founded by aliens, not like this Cain and Abel. I can't remember what the Bible says about it, but they're like, the Bible says that like they started worshiping a different God and then God got pissed about it and then made everybody start talking different languages, which is the Tower of Babel, right? Whereas like this movie, it suggest that it was aliens that taught Sumerians a language which then turned into English, you know, tens of thousands of years later, right? But at the very end of that, it's in Sumerian and it always like fucking freaked me out, the end of that movie. Yeah, dude, it's wild. I mean, the movie in and of itself is like, eh. speaker-1: I did not know And that's all based on a true, but that is based on like a true story, right? speaker-0: No, it says it is. It says it is, but after looking into it, they just use that as the ⁓ kind of like a hook, right, to get people into the movie because. Yeah, I remember looking it up like is the fourth kind a true story? And no, it's not. So, I mean, they're not the first person to do that. I think one of the first people to do that was the Coen brothers with the movie Fargo. speaker-1: sons of bitches. speaker-0: because at the beginning of that movie, it says these are inspired by true events. And they just like threw that in there at the very end of editing. Like, yeah, this might get people a little bit more interested in the movie, you know? Thinking that it's based off of something real. I think it definitely worked, right? But I mean, even the thought or the assumption, right, that ancient Sumerian was actually speaker-1: I mean it works. speaker-0: extraterrestrial language that we just adopted and that eventually turned into English or Latin or however you want to go about it, right? Always kind of freaked me out, but I kind of liked where they were going with it. I wish they would have built on it a little bit more because, you know, even with like the Sumerian, this kind of goes along with like the hieroglyphs, right? There's some ancient Sumerian. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: carvings, I guess, of what look like aliens. They have breathing apparatus and they look like the greats. speaker-1: I don't like that at all, Michael. speaker-0: It's fucking weird. It kind of freaks me out a little bit. But ⁓ yeah, you'll find some carvings where there's like one specifically, it looks like a gray with a breathing mask on. And I think that's where they kind of like developed the movie around was that image specifically. Yeah. speaker-1: You know what I kind of thought about? Like, few days. What's that? You know how they say that we know more about space than our ocean? And for years, I've fought in that. speaker-0: Yeah. Mm-hmm. speaker-1: I think I finally get it, Michael, where it's like a, it's a riddle. It's like, we know more about space because there's so much shit down in the ocean that is so beyond us that's living down there. They're like, we don't know anything about it. speaker-0: Yeah, or we just don't have the technology. I guess it might be easier to go up and deal with no pressure than down where it's a lot of pressure, you know, I think from a technology standpoint, but also, I guess with like speaker-1: We way up. We go speaker-0: I'm kind of. Well, no, what I'm saying is like from it's easier to probably build something that you can shoot up and that it doesn't have constant pressure on it like you do with a submarine trying to push it downwards. speaker-1: I get it. I mean, what I'm getting at though is if we can shoot something to Mars, I feel like Elon Musk can figure out something to go down, you know, 50. speaker-0: And it doesn't seem really all that difficult. I mean the guys on that one submarine that blew up, shit they had fucking submarines in the Civil War. The Hunley, that was the first usage of ⁓ a military submarine in warfare. speaker-1: Yeah. Would you be more nervous in the submarine or spaceship? speaker-0: Oh, geez, that's a great question. Well, I think it's a lose-lose. If either collapse, you're kind of fucked, you know, because like... speaker-1: I just, I know I wouldn't do well with a blast off. You know? I would shit my pants. I'd be the worst blast off person in the world. speaker-0: Right? Get me out of here. The bus seats on Buggle. Yeah, I don't know. I think I would have an easier time going to space, right? Than I would, I think it was because like, here's an example, right? Whenever I'm on an airplane and we go through turbulence, right? The first thought of turbulence is we're going to crash, you know? speaker-1: I'm speaker-0: And I have always, mean, and this is how it's always been on airplanes, right? That if it crashes, I'm always kind of like, well, there's really nothing I can fucking do about it. You know? Like, don't. speaker-1: Yeah, but I don't like 30,000 foot drop. Do it. speaker-0: Well, yeah, for sure. Like I'm not saying it wouldn't be scary, you know, but I guess I come to terms with the situation very quickly, you know, being at the mercy of weather, right? So I think I would have an easier time in a spaceship knowing that like, if this thing does blow up, at least it's going to be fairly instant for me, you know? Now with like submarines on the way down, it's kind of like, You know when you're fishing and your lure gets stuck on a log and you really can't get it off so you just keep pulling on the line waiting for it to snap and you feel that tension building that eeee to happen. I think I would have that feeling in a submarine. The lower and lower that you get and the higher the pressure builds and builds and builds and builds and you're like, is this thing going to fucking hold? I think I would do worse going down. speaker-1: Yeah, but sometimes you get your lure back, Michael. speaker-0: Yeah, well sometimes, yeah. I would say more often than not, I get my lure back, you know? But still that building of pressure, right? That increase of tension, you know, I think I would have a harder time getting used to than, you know, strapping a bucket of gasoline on me and shooting me into the stars. I think I can get over that pretty quick. speaker-1: I would eat so much Taco Bell right before. speaker-0: Which one? Both? Just see a big ol' brown streak. speaker-1: ⁓ I saw this video and it can't be true, but it made me laugh so hard. ⁓ I don't think I sent it to you. Maybe I did. Anyways, so I don't know if it's like Ireland or Scotland or one of those countries, know, island countries where they were talking about the Taco Bell was going to start opening up a bunch of locations there. But the government was nervous because they weren't sure if the plumbing would be able to It's it's over. speaker-0: We have seen what happens with salsa verde and we do not want this on our infrastructure. speaker-1: We're just gonna try it out real quick. Now that I say it out loud, there's no way that could be true. speaker-0: Right. Well, I saw something kind of along the same lines. was like, I hate it how ⁓ people accuse white people of having no taste and no seasoning. They're the only ones that eat hot sauce named like Dave's Butthole Sauce. like, this will literally kill you hot sauce. You know, it's like, yeah, sign me up. Not hot enough. speaker-1: Yeah, Carolina, puppy your asshole. speaker-0: Right, exactly. Like the wildest fucking names for hot sauce. know, we're like, yeah. Right. It's just that. Yeah. One of the hottest ones is called D'Bomb. It's literally a picture of a nuclear bomb on it. D'Bomb is actually really good, though. That is is some delicious shit right there. speaker-1: called death. I can't do hot just to do hot. I like heat. Don't get me wrong, but just to like burn my face off. speaker-0: Yeah, there was a little while where ⁓ I was on a hot streak of, a real hot sauce kick of like, it's not hot enough. know, remember, we were living together when it was happening. the famous Dave's Devil Spit Pickles, you know? ⁓ yeah. And all that. Yeah, that shit was awesome. But I can't do it now. Like my guts, my guts just, they're not equipped for it. You know? Just give me a hot dog. That's about all I can handle. That should be one of the seven wonders of the world, the creation of the hot dog. speaker-1: Hahaha Oh, I know how it started. It started on Coney Island. speaker-0: Tony Highland created the first hot dog. speaker-1: One of the guys so it was a knockoff of like the Z Frankenfort. It was a It was a Vino sausage over in Germany and this guy on Coney Island was starting to sell him on the beach and then this one what if he was selling them for 10 cents and one of his his employees his name was Nathan something fucking left and undercut him and started selling his dot dogs for speaker-0: you speaker-1: Son of a bitch. speaker-0: If it wasn't for capitalism, we would not have the hot dog. speaker-1: Pretty much, pretty much. And then the hot dog started catching on from there. speaker-0: I wouldn't picture the hot dog being a beach type of meal, you know? speaker-1: could have turned the hot dog down on the beach if that's... speaker-0: Hell no, yeah, if somebody's going by with a couple of hot dogs, like of course I'm gonna smash 15 of them. That vendor is gonna have a great day when he sees me. ⁓ boy, I can finally put little Jimmy through college like here he comes. I've brought all my stuff for the entire day and you emptied the cart. Now nobody else gets a hot dog. How do you feel about yourself? You got one more? That's probably what I would say. speaker-1: he's doing She's back again, I knew it. He's here all week. We're gonna need you to grab extra hot dogs. speaker-0: Black off my whole calendar! speaker-1: ⁓ yeah, summer's gonna be good! speaker-0: I haven't had a solid dog in a minute. It's been a little bit. I was actually, I actually got off, I was, mean, I was eating a lot of hot dogs, but then I accidentally bought cheddar dogs, you know? Yeah. And I got through them and I was like, that's it. I'm done. I am not doing more hot dogs after these cheddar dogs. I think they might've been bad. I don't know. I ate eight of them. speaker-1: And like even the brats, I can't do the cheese filled brats or hot speaker-0: No, yeah, I can't. I mean, they got all kinds of flavors now. They put like jalapeno cheddar in it, you Some are, but ⁓ in Austria, they hollow out a baguette and put the hot dog in it. They have hot dog sushi in Japan or miniature hot dog. speaker-1: good. either. What do you put in the hot dog sushi? What do wrap it with? speaker-0: We should, yeah. ⁓ ⁓ Here it looks like a hot dog with some seaweed on a bed of rice. Yeah, that's a little weird. The ones in Brazil are crazy. Cachorro Quente. speaker-1: Ew. What does that mean? speaker-0: hot dog. ⁓ Quente is hot and cachojo is dog. So it literally means hot dog. But they put it on like an actual like bread roll. speaker-1: This is, this is, we've talked about this because you, your mother-in-law bet you couldn't eat five of these. speaker-0: Yep, and I told her I could, and I probably will. In 2006, they had the world's longest hot dog of 197 feet. speaker-1: I don't think Are we talking about one sitting or throughout the whole day? speaker-0: ⁓ no, no, no. Wait, for me and my mother-in-law? Yeah. One sitting. Yep. speaker-1: ⁓ Is that including with the mashed potatoes on them? speaker-0: That's the the deal was is that if if we go she gets to build them and then I have to eat at least four of the traditional built Brazilian hot dogs. speaker-1: Are they still the same size as ours? speaker-0: The dog, yes, but everything else on it. The dog is like an afterthought. speaker-1: ⁓ I know. I'm looking at this. Yeah. Puts a chili dog to shame. speaker-0: Yeah, these are different. They're literally built different. speaker-1: Like street tacos but hot speaker-0: Yeah, I think they would make any Texan... You know, shiver in their boots. Because everything's bigger in Texas. Yeah, wait until you go to fucking Brazil and see the hot dogs down there. speaker-1: So colorful. This is a Crunchwrap Supreme hot dog. speaker-0: That sounds awesome, Crunchwrench. It's a hot dog. speaker-1: Michael, was golfing on Sunday and there was no turn for me to get a hot dog. No? Yeah, I was pretty upset. speaker-0: But you were prepared though, you brought your own? speaker-1: No. No. I was banking on the... It's still early in the season. speaker-0: It is. Maybe they just hadn't fired up the grill yet. speaker-1: No, it was the chorus. We played a countryside traditional. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: Lovely course, beautiful course.
