And surprise, it's our special Fall episode I've never done before. Oh,
0:51
he didn't know. That's not a thing we do regularly. It's our first
0:54
ever Fall episode. One hundred and eighty episodes, didn't We finally decided let's
0:58
do an episode about Fall. Why not? It is Fall. It is
1:02
time for all the good stuff about Fall, and maybe some of the bad
1:04
stuff that you don't like so much. But we're gonna cover pretty much all
1:08
of it. Like I dug so deep into Fall, you guys for this
1:11
episode, so deep, and I know so much that I didn't know before
1:15
deep And yeah that that Fall lord that you all love so much fell into
1:23
Autumn. I totally did I get that one. I fell into Fall.
1:30
So we're gonna play three silly games all about Fall, and whichever team has
1:34
the most points at the end of the episode wins and gains probably a tiny
1:40
bit of pride and some recognition again pride this time. I mean, it
1:44
really depends on how you feel about success. It's gonna come from within the
1:51
definitely won't be coming from without. We don't care who wins, and the
1:57
losers will probably be like yeah whatever. Anyway, we have some special guests
2:05
with us this time to pair up and play against our usual dream team of
2:09
Step and Aby. We have the Smith's sisters High Yeah, two out of
2:15

more behind the stop. That's still a talent. I don't have the red
2:49
hair. I left mine at home, So well, fair enough. Well,
2:52
I guess I'll start The obvious question to ask is what's your favorite thing
2:55
about fall? Oh, well, it's my birthday. That would be a
3:02
good thing. That's pretty good thing. My birthday was always one of the
3:07
first days of school and it was very anxiety provoking. But now it's gotten
3:12
to the point where I'm just like, oh my god, it's my birthday.
3:15
Let's have epple bye in five days. Yeah, so I would say
3:20
fall food, birthday cake. Probably food. Food. Yes, Food's usually
3:25
the answer for me. That's like food. So step and I'll get Just
3:29
bear in mind, if you win, you were ruining Kyla's birthday, almost
3:35
guarantee you that we will not reber birthday. So based on the like they
3:39
don't have a break running record, I'm just gonna put it out there right
3:44
now. I think we have one dream teams that you beat. I think

3:58
welcome of course, Kyla. And I'll ask the same question of you,
4:00
Casey. What's your favorite thing about fall? Immediately I thought about crunchy leaves.
4:06
One of my favorite things when it after it rains and then it's it's
4:12
sunny and the leaves dry up, you step on them and there's a satisfying
4:16
crunch. Yeah. It's not just a sound, it's a feeling. Yeah.
4:21
Yeah, no, I get it. I can my favorite thing crunchy
4:26
when I was a kid, I used to love jumping into a pile of
4:29
dry leaves. Yeah, although it's disgusting, Yeah, it's absolutely disgusting now,
4:33
and I'm like, all my muscles would hurt I tried it, so
4:39
I'd be like, nope, jumping. Jumping doesn't happen so much for us
4:44
anymore. Sent videos of me stepping on crunchy leaves to Kylo. Oh my
4:49
gosh. Yeah, when you're in college, like every week I would get
4:51
like, I know exactly what's happened. Oh my gosh. It was like
4:59
the for e SMR was a thing, some of those oddly satisfying things that
5:03
I just yeah, no, absolutely good reason to love Fall. But yeah,
5:08
food Fall, food is excellent. And of course we have the dream
5:12
team. I'm start with AUGI Hey, Aggy, what's going on? Not
5:16
much? So, what's your favorite thing about Fall? It's the thing I'm
5:20
stealing from Stevie. It's Halloween, straight up stolen. Halloween is good.
5:28
Halloween. A lot a lot of people love home. It's my favorite time
5:30
of year. It's I love dressing up, I love the decorations, and
5:35
I just like the stories behind it. You know, It's like the perfect
5:39
time of year to just have fun. Yeah, yeah, no, absolutely,
5:43
I agree. Uh and that of course has stolen Stevie's probably go to
5:47
answer. Hi, Stevie, how you doing? Doing awesome? Yeah?
5:51
Yeah, doing great? Man, that's fair. That's fair. Got the
5:55
studio cleaned up a little bit today, got some new plans and ideas for
5:58
the future. Yeah. Happy, All right, So same question, sir,
6:02
What is your favorite thing about how about falling? No, no,
6:08
no, I'm jumping back from that. Was your favorite thing about fall?
6:11
You can't say holloween? It actually wasn't going to be Halloween. Actually,
6:15
y'all just goyd to go for the go to thing. I'm actually gonna say,
6:18
like the fall bonfires and stuff, because this is the time to get
6:23
like people like Fall is the best time to have a bonfire. Don't get
6:26
around springs awesome and all because it's like, thank God, the snow's gone,
6:30
Let's have a fire and get people over handling God talks and stuff.
6:31
But Fall, with that cool crisp air and the net fire radiating with all
6:36
your friends around that that's what I love about Fall. Yeah, I can't
6:42
feel like a good barbecue followed by a bonfire is like one of my favorite
6:46
things to do, sitting there just and just hanging out with friends, just
6:49
chatting about striking at the fire, making each other laugh. It's a good
6:53
time. Yeah. Uh. As for me, I'm your host Pancil Saron,
6:57
And my favorite thing about fall has to be all of the apple stuff
7:00
that comes flying out of it everywhere, like like, kyla huge, I'm
7:05
a huge apple pie fan. Like, give me any apple pie, I
7:09
don't care what kind. I will eat the shit out of it. And
7:14
just lots of other apple stuff I got from the store just on a whim,
7:18
a caramel apple coffee, and it sounds like it should be terrible,
7:24
it's actually good. And I was like, oh my, this works.
7:29
How what you know what, I'm not going to question it. I'm just
7:30
going to enjoy it. So I've been enjoying the crap out of that,
7:33
and like all the other cool apple things that people come up with that just
7:38
never cease to amaze me. And it all seems to come out in fall
7:41
obviously that's when the apples. We live in a good area for apples too,
7:45
Yeah, we live in a good area for it as well, which
7:46
just makes it a perfect Oh yeah, peaches can suck it. I don't
7:55
love peaches. I've been to the Peach Festival a thousand times. I just
7:59
like apples patter. Yeah. Same. The brown sugar creamer, caramel apple
8:07
coffee I have not, now I do have. I do have a sort
8:11
of caramel thing. I have the Snickers creamer, absolutely not good for you,
8:20
but it pairs really nicely, so it creates kind of an apple Snackers
8:24
thing, which is surprisingly delicious. It shouldn't all work, but it does
8:31
all work, So the hell with it? Shall we play some games?
8:35
All right? We're gonna start with game one, which is the cost is
8:39
correct in honor of Bob Barker's unfortunate passing that we did get us close to
8:45
one hundred without going over. It felt right to visit something that I love.
8:52
The price is right. But for obvious reasons, I didn't think Joe
8:58
was funny, but it is kind of morbid that I love. Listen.
9:07
He made a lot of people very happy, and I am not stomping on
9:13
him at all. No, no, but just the age that he passed
9:18
at is just really funny. Anyway. For obvious reasons, our version is
9:22
legally distinct, and given that it's our Fault episode. All of the items
9:26
you're going to be bidding on are related to things that Kindlass said she loved
9:31
about Fall in a Facebook post the other day, puking spice, cozy sweaters,
9:35
hay rides, apple pie, Monster movies, and Count Chocola. Yeah,
9:41
the cereal chocolate. I have heard of Count Chocola, but I didn't
9:45
particularly Fall. That's when it comes out. It's only available or in the
9:52
Fall, and every Fall, every every folloween Monster even though even bad ones.
9:58
Yeah, yeah, the werewolf one is that was gross? Ye,
10:03
I guess that would Expand anyway, there are five items up for bids.
10:07
Everyone is going to give me their own bid for each end. Whoever's closest
10:11
without going over wins that item for their team, and the team who wins
10:16
three items wins the game and earns one episode point. You don't actually win
10:20
the idol. You know, we do not have the budget for some of
10:26
these things. We're just going to tell you we don't have the budget for
10:28
cerealspect it all on Internet, and we're going to bounce back and forth and
10:35
go across so that you know, neither team can get completely trumped by the
10:39
other team. So The first item up for bids is this beautiful king pumpkin.
10:45
The winning pumpkin at the Barnesville Pumpkin Festival in twenty twenty one weighed two
10:50
thousand, one hundred and ninety five pounds and was auctioned off to the highest
10:54
bidder. And this item will go to the one of you who bids nearest
10:58
to the actual winning bid. With out going over Kyla, We're going to
11:01
start with you a two thousand, one hundred and ninety five pound punk.
11:05
Let's say, uh, fifteen hundred and seventy three dollars, Okay, fifteen
11:11
hundred and seven. I might actually have to rate it's now smart. Fifteen
11:13
hundred and seventy three dollars fair enough? Oh, I'm horrible at this,
11:18
Aggie. You are going to bid next? What do you say bad?
11:26
I could say it's a pumpkin, It is a pumpkin, but it's a
11:31
said I'm sorry, Barnesville, Ohio. I want to say want because that
11:35
does make a difference. Like we get pumpkins everywhere, so I could pay
11:39
five bucks and get a pumpkin Medico. So yeah, something that size has
11:41
actually been close up to, like a grand I think because I'm thinking I
11:46
want to say one thing. Yeah, I'm thinking a thousand, one thousand,
11:50
says Augie Casey. What do you say? Oh God, I'm horrible
11:56
at these things. But I'm gonna say seven fifty, seven hundred and fifty
12:01
dollars, says Casey. And then finally, Stevie, what would you like
12:05
to be? It's so difficult. Originally I was gonna say nine ninety nine,
12:07
but all he already did the thousand, and we're on the same team,
12:09
right, Yes, no actor against fifteen seventy five, fifteen seventy three,
12:16
three dam I will go fifteen seventy four. Wow, what a journey
12:22
to be fair. That is how you play the game. I love it,
12:26
and I will tell you the actual winning bid for this pumpkin was eight
12:28
thousand, five hundred dollars. I was trying to think of it by like
12:33
price per pound. That's what I was going about, like the scam.
12:41
So Stevie has the closest bid without going over and wins the dream team good
12:46
s blown. Yeah, expensive, all right, but that's okay. You
12:52
can win it right back with our second item up for bids, which is
12:54
this beautiful sweater, this warm red wool sweater with a single black letter H
13:01
indicating the wearer went to Harvard. This sweater was famously worn by John F.
13:07
Kennedy and was sold at auction in twenty twenty one. And it can
13:09
also be yours if the cost is correct, Aggie, you will be first
13:15
to bid. This time. Somebody steal his sweater at a weird time in
13:18
college. No, he actually gave it away to a cameraman at an event.
13:22
Oh cool, here take my sweaty s sweater? Are right? Was
13:28
that these real things? Yeah? These are real things. That this was
13:33
auctioned off for a certain price. And Aggie is going to be the first
13:35
to tell me how much. I'm thinking this thing's gonna be at least twenty
13:39
grand. Twenty thousand dollars, says Aggie. Right, okay, Harvard jersey
13:46
or Harvard sweater from lega prior. I mean it has been a while.
13:48
He's been deadly a long time, so he's going to go up. True,
13:54
very true. All right, so you're sticking in twenty yeah, right,
13:56
twenty thousand dollars, says Aggie. Casey, what do you say?
14:00
Oh? Boy, Well is expensive and it's really old. So let's say
14:13
four fifty, four hundred and fifty dollars. All right, four hundred and
14:16
fifty dollars or four and fifty thousand, four fifty. This is four hundred.
14:22
Yeah. Uh, Stevie, what do you say? I mean we
14:24
got the high end, then the little Yeah, I guess I gotta I
14:26
have to go with five hundred, just to stay in again with the jerkish
14:31
play. So nobody else gets to choose. It's out like a child,
14:37
Kylo, what would you like to bid? I'm going a million. I
14:39
think it's going to be real expensive. Million dollars. I'll just put one
14:43
m wow. Okay. Well, the actual final winning bid of this item
14:52
was eighty five thousand dollars. So Aggie takes this item. I thought it'll
14:58
be way over man. It was like, this is your opportunity to go
15:01
twenty one to do to augue what I should have. You should And there
15:11
are three items left, Kyl and Casey, you have to get them all,
15:13
but I got faith in you. Our third item up for bids is
15:18
tickets to Disneyland Resort in the in Los Angeles Halloween Celebration. Two tickets means
15:24
you and a friend can enjoy Disneyland's Uggie Boogie Bash, which includes a treat
15:31
trails, a parade, a Mickey Mouse live show, and the chance to
15:33
explore Villain's Grove. This fabulous prize goes to the one of you who bids
15:39
nearest to the mean retail price of two tickets to the Uggie Boogie Bash.
15:43
This one. We're got to win this one. To be absolutely fair,
15:46
I took these the the mean price because every day has a different price.
15:52
Yeah, So I looked for the price that was the most common or the
15:56
mean price. Uh, and that is the price that I went by.
15:58
So this is there's two tickets to the Uggy Buggy Bash in Disneyland. Does
16:03
not include travel or lodging or any of that. There's just two tickets to
16:07
the event. Uh, ste No, Casey's gonna be first of all last
16:11
time. Okay, I'm gonna say five hundred, five hundred dollars, says
16:17
Casey d What do you say to the event in the park. Then I'm
16:25
gonna say it's closer to like sixty four hundred, sixty four hundred dollars,
16:32
says Stevie. All right, Kyler, what do you think I'm gonna go
16:37
silly and go six six six, six hundred sixty six dollars because I feel
16:41
like they might do something silly like the number of the mouse. And finally,
16:45
uggy shit, because I was thinking like closer to seven hundred, i'd
16:53
have to say, Pablo, eight hundred, eight hundred. Yeah, all
16:57
right, Well, I'm afraid to say you have all overbid. Everybody's gonna
17:03
have to be and been lower than five hundred dollars. Starting with Casey.
17:08
Oh, I think it was that right. I want to go to this
17:14
thing. I'm gonna stay four twenty five, four twenty five, says Casey.
17:18
Stevie it it's like right there too, that's what stinks. He said,
17:22
four twenty five. Ye, I'll go three ninety two through three ninety
17:29
two. Yeah, okay, Kyla, what do you say. I'm gonna
17:34
go one dollar one dollar? Uh, four seventy five, four seventy five,
17:45
says Augie. And the actual retail price, the mean retail price of
17:49
two tickets to the Ougy Buggy Bash is three hundred and eighteen dollars. Kyla
17:53
takes that one. It was a strategy. It was a strategy absolutely work.
17:59
I like, I gotta go high because Steve went wailo. All right,
18:04
So Kyla and Casey have one item. Stevie and Aggie have two,
18:08
so they're catching back up. Here's our next item up for bids. This
18:11
incredible pie, This peanut butter and banana pie on a Hammond pretzel crust,
18:18
was sold at auction in rich Hill, Missouri, and at the time became
18:22
the most expensive pie auction according to Guinness World Records in twenty twelve. But
18:27
this item can be yours if the cost is correct. And this time we're
18:32
going to start with Stevie. These types of pies like illegal except for this
18:36
day or something auction? But did it belong to somebody? I'm gonna say
18:41
thirty seven dollars? Thirty seven that is an expensive pie? Kylo, what
18:48
do you say? Three oh one, three hundred and one? Maybe maybe
18:53
it was like a bidding war between two warring factions. Yes, the recipe
19:03
deconstructed. Aggie, what do you say, Oh man, it's got to
19:06
be something stupid like five hundred, right, five hundred dollars all right?
19:11
Like something ridiculous, like why would you ever spend that much for a pie?
19:17
Uh? Two seventy five, two seventy five. Good numbers, good
19:22
numbers, all right, I think it's gonna surprise you. The actual winning
19:29
bid for this pie was three thousand, one hundred dollars, which means Aggy
19:34
wins the item and clinch to the first game. To go with my gut,
19:40
because I was gonna say three thousands, he said five oh one.
19:45
I was waiting for you to like somebody to like take a pig off of
19:48
these guys. So it's like this piefle of weed or something. No,
19:52
it's just a peanut butter and banana pie. It looked pretty damn good,
19:56
and I don't know if there was to make it the most expensive. What
20:00
was the crust? Hammond? No, no, it wasn't Hammond. It
20:03
was Hammond. The name Hammond, Pretzel, Hamond Pretzelie. I mean,
20:15
I love you, but not with peanut butter and bananas. You can do
20:22
burgers with peanut butter and bananas. So I can't know. I mean,
20:25
yeah, I've had peanut butter wings. All right, let's do this,
20:29
but no, no, we'll make one. What do you say? We
20:33
played the final item of forbids. Our final lie of my forbids is horror
20:38
movie memorabilia. Jason Vorhe's costume from the two thousand and nine Friday the Thirteenth
20:45
remake was put up for auction by Profiles in History that same year. And
20:51
this item will go to the one of you who bids closest to the final
20:53
winning bid without going over uh. And we'll start back with Kyla for this
20:59
one. What do you think this one went for just for funzies? Eighty
21:03
two thousand dollars. Eighty two thousand dollars. This, Kayla, people are
21:07
weird crazy. This room is evidence of that. Aggie, I actually think
21:14
it's bigger. I'm thinking it's like one hundred and thirty thousand dollars. One
21:18
hundred and thirty thousand dollars, says Aggy Casey. I'm gonna stick close to
21:23
my partner here and say seventy five thousand, seventy five thousand. All right,
21:29
And last but not least, Steve as weird? Is it? It
21:32
was scream used. Yeah, actual actually appeared on film, The actual costume
21:38
that the actor was I'll say twenty one thousand. Well, the actual final
21:45
winning bit of this item was forty five thousand dollars. So Steve, you
21:48
would sick in that one. As well. Nice, I love Chris Casey.
21:52
You need to make some distance between your partner. Yeah, cover,
21:56
cover a bigger spread. Yeah yeah, listen, listen. Praises Rates typically
22:03
not played as a team game. I don't expect you to know that strategy
22:07
off the topic round work was the prices? Right? Oh my god,
22:15
I shouldn't know this. That's okay, listen. I guess a team strategy
22:18
isn't a big thing on prais. But it's okay because this game is only
22:22
worth one point. The next game is worth two points, so you guys
22:23
can easily flow it back. We're gonna play that game right after this.
22:36
I'm Richie aka Midnight Agent Raw. I'm Devin aka Special Delivery Dev. We're
22:41
the Supermediate Bros. Podcast and each week we give a comedically informative take on
22:47
movies, music, television, pro wrestling, and much more. Check us
22:51
out at Supermedia Bros. Podcast dot Com, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or
22:56
anywhere else that you can listen to podcasts shades on. We're all hey man,
23:14
welcome back. It's time for game two. Game two is gonna be
23:17
Stevie's trivia Hole. We've played this game before. I'm gonna give our teams
23:22
six categories, each concealing a trivia question with three multiple choice answers. They're
23:29
going to answer that question and they'll learn a point for each one they get.
23:32
Right. After all six questions have been asked, we will go into
23:36
Stevie's trivia hole and a play a final seventh mystery question which will be asked
23:41
and both teams are going to answer. That question is considered the hardest and
23:45
it is worth two points. The team that has the most points after its
23:48
seventh and final question we'll win the game and earn two episode points. So
23:53
let me give you these categories. Categories you can choose from, and they
23:57
are Pumpkin spice contains no pumpkin leaf me alone, riding the column bus,
24:07
Beierenstein's Monster, I'm feeling fruity, or this question's a little corny and Kyla
24:15
and Casey, you lost last game, so you first pick what set?
24:18
So we're answering as a team. Yeah, you're answering as a team.
24:19
You can you can confer which category would you like to try? What do
24:23
you want to do? The leaf one? Okay, we can do the
24:27
leak leaf me alone? Fair enough? All right? So here's your question.
24:32
Why do leaves fall off of trees in autumn? Is it a they
24:37
reach old age, be decreased sunlight, or see decreased temperatures. It's the
24:45
temperatures. It's the temperatures. You want to lock that in? Do we
24:51
want to lock in? Sure? Yeah? Okay, Fred, that's incorrect.
24:56
It was decreased sunlight. Yea. As exposure to sunlight decreases, a
25:03
growth hormone is sent to a cell between the stem and the leaf, forcing
25:07
the leaf to separate and fall off. That makes a lot of sense.
25:11
So yeah, that's no point for Kylen case. But it is still early.
25:18
Yeah, maybe we'll see Stevie and Augie? What category would you guys
25:22
like to try your hand out? All I remember is the pumpkin one at
25:26
you have pumpkin spice contains no pumpkin riding the column bus Bernstein's Monster. I'm
25:33
feeling fruity and this question's a little corny. I want to go beer Stein's
25:38
Monster first. Cool, All right, here is your question from Bernstein's Monster.
25:45
What country holds the largest october Fest celebration outside of Germany? Is it
25:51
a the USA, B Canada or see Turkey wouldn't surprise me if it's fucking
25:59
cannon. I don't know why, but I don't think it is. Actually,
26:03
you know, it wouldn't spread it because I know some Canadians. There's
26:10
a movie about it. Yeah, strange proved. Yeah, what are you
26:14
thinking of? I've got no input on this because I don't really celebrate our
26:18
Octoberfest. But I'm gonna go Canadas. You think Canada? He yea,
26:23
do Canadians love the drink man? It's like that in hockey. All right,
26:26
you're gonna lock that in, yes, sir, yeah, Canada,
26:30
all right, and that will get you the point. It is Canada.
26:34
The second largest Octoberfest celebration is held in Kitchener, Ontario. Yeah, just
26:40
just over the border. Yeah yeah, that's one point to our dream team
26:45
here who are killing it today somehow. But you still you can still do
26:52
this, would you like? Uh, pumpkin spice holds no pumpkin riding the
26:57
column bus. I'm feeling fruity or this question's a little quart Uh, let's
27:03
go with the pumpkin spice. No pumpkin spice. Pumpkin spice has no pumpkin.
27:07
All right, here's your question. The heaviest pumpkin ever grown, according
27:11
to Guinness World Records. Was grown in what country? Is it a USA,
27:18
the Switzerland or c Italy? What do you think? My initial thought
27:27
is the USA, because we're the only ones who have like interest in this
27:32
kind of bullshit. And I do know that Ohio has several like giant pumpkin
27:42
competitions, and the USA probably does the most experimenting with sizes and stuff.
27:48
Yeah, and like horn, I almost had hgh, but it's not human
27:52
growth. Plant growth was in my mind. I'll say, the USA.
27:56
Yeah, you're telling you all right, you want to lock that in?
27:57
Sure? Sure, all right? It's locked in? And it is incorrect?
28:02
Is it Italy? It is Italy? Yeah. It was two thousand,
28:06
seven hundred and two pounds and it was grown in twenty twenty one.
28:11
It used to be Switzerland before them. I don't think it's ever been the
28:14
websay. That's a could be wrong, but it is. Yeah, it
28:18
is currently in Italy. So well, that is correct answer, no point.
28:22
There still a lot of game left. Stevie and Aggie, would you
28:25
like riding the column bus? I'm feeling fruity or this question is a little
28:29
corny fruit or corn? Sir, it it is all right, gentlemen.
28:36
Here is your question. Which of these popular fall fruits is actually a berry,
28:41
a apple, the Asian pear, or see pumpkin, mister science.
28:52
Tactically, I guess the pumpkin because it comes off a vine. Yeah you
28:59
yeah, I'm going to dog he's smarting me. I could be. I
29:02
could be wrong, very likely. H oh, I'm thinking Barry's Okay,
29:07
there you go. Barry is not one of the opports, but I heard
29:11
it. Do you want to lock that in? Yes? Okay, that
29:17
is another point for the dream team. I don't know what's happening. They
29:22
don't know how to handle it. They don't win. I don't know.
29:26
I don't really got too highlight show. We've elevated. This is your last
29:30
chance to make up some ground before the final question. Would you like riding
29:34
the column bus or this question's little corny? Let's go corner? Yeah,
29:38
corn it is. I don't hate corn, and she's not my favorite the
29:45
same room. I love me some sweet corn. Anyway. Here's your question.
29:48
Which state hosts the largest corn maze in America? Is it a Nebraska,
29:56
be California or ce Illinois? I'm gonna say my my, my initial
30:03
guest is Illinois. That's my guess is Nebraska because they got the corn Huskers
30:07
is one of their state school and the people I can we say Nebraska?
30:12
Sure, can we say Nebraska. I'm going to trust you, all right,
30:15
you decided to lock them in? Yeah, okay, you should have
30:19
listened to Casey. I apologize, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's at
30:30
a place called Richardson Adventure Farm in its twenty eight acres. This was the
30:33
hardest question to write because there are multiple places in America that claimed to have
30:38
one, but from all reports, it seems like the actual largest one is
30:42
the Richardson Adventure Farm in Illinois has twenty eight acres. It's huge. They
30:48
did a Jurassic Park theme last year. It was nuts and like Iowa is
30:53
like that's their whole state identity is corn Yeah, it's one of the reasons
30:57
why I left it off in Anyville. All right, So Stevie and Agy,
31:03
you guys got stuck with riding the Columbus Yeah, okay. Which state
31:08
was the first to make Columbus Day a legal holiday? A Colorado? Be
31:15
Connecticut or see New Jersey? Mm hmm. Columbus yep, which state was
31:25
the first to make Columbus Day a legal holiday? Okay? I Colorado just
31:30
seems like it's so out there, like why would they do that? But
31:33
at the same time they wanted an extra day off. Jersey seems more like
31:41
it's because it's right there. You know. Connecticut's an interesting option. So
31:45
I'm kind of like not sure if it's Jersey or you want to Connecticut.
31:49
Yeah, Connecticut, Connecticut, Connecticut. Would you like to lock that in?
31:55
Sure? Okay, that's your first misstep. That's wrong. It's not
32:00
Anneticutt. It was Colorado. Really. Uh they made an illegal holiday on
32:04
April Fool's Day nineteen o seven. Alright, so the score stands two points
32:13
to the Dream Team, nothing for Kyl and Casey. But this last question
32:16
is were two points. You can tie it if you get it right.
32:22
So I will give you the choice as to which team you want to answer
32:24
first. I'm gonna guess you probably want them to answer, and then you
32:27
can choose something different to try and win the game. But you can strategize
32:31
however you But if they get it right, they get it right, and
32:34
we're done. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. If they get it right.
32:36
There's nothing you can do. Let's chance it. All right, gentlemen,
32:45
here is the question. I'm not going to tell them if they get
32:47
it right before I ask you which one is going on first? Yeah,
32:52
you're both going to answer. So so here's the final question. And Stephen
32:55
and you're going to answer first. What day is National Apple Cider Day?
33:01
Is it a September eighteenth, b October eighteenth or see November eighteenth. I
33:13
don't know apples apple harvest is coming. I know, like we get the
33:21
cider at the end of October. Do E though getting before that? But
33:27
they haven't November two. I don't know. What do we get started to
33:29
dude, I think a couple weeks. It's it's in September October. I'm
33:32
leading more towards September harvest. Let's do it. We got this. You're
33:39
saying September eighteen? Yeah, yeah, do you want to lock that in?
33:43
Yeah? Okay, it's locked in. Kyl and Casey. Would you
33:45
like to go with something different? We're gonna go with what do you think?
33:50
I was thinking September because that's when you know apples are picked. Yeah,
33:57
apples are picked then, but they gotta go through the the cider process.
34:00
True, and October eighteenth is our parents wedding anniversary, so so yeah,
34:07
that is true. They do base everything around food based holidays, so
34:15
so they created us that you were born on National Pizza Day. Yeah,
34:22
I was not. So are we go in October? I think so.
34:29
I would like to go, but I granted I steered us wrong last time.
34:31
So would you like to lock that in? No, let's do October?
34:35
Okay, Yeah, let's do it. You're locking in October? Yes,
34:37
all right, that is locked in. So I can tell you you
34:42
have a chance because September is incorrect tiebreaker and October, okay is also it
34:52
was November eighteenth, the date was established in the UK, and that was
34:58
the same day William Tell shot the apple off his son's head. Gotcha.
35:04
I don't know what they did with the apple after that, but I imagine
35:06
they got drunk. Poor kid. In any event, that means at the
35:12
end of the game, Stevie and Aggie have two points, Kyl and Casey
35:15
have none, So Stevie and Aggie have won that game as well. They
35:20
are up three episode of points. But listen, you have a chance to
35:23
tie it and maybe afterwards, winning tiebreaker, gonna take it home. This
35:28
final game is worth three points, so you need this one to tie,
35:32
otherwise the dream Team will have made it a clean suite. But we're gonna
35:36
play game three right after this. Hey, I'm Lauren and I'm John,
35:53
and we host the Beard Doll Podcast, the podcast where we talk about two
35:58
of the greatest things in the world, beer and weird al and a lot
36:01
of other things. We're funny. Yeah, that's basically what I told him
36:06
to say. Good job with listen, yay, but no, seriously,
36:10
we try to heare of here were weird Al song and talk about both things
36:15
and go where the conversation takes us. It's fun. I promise you'll like
36:20
it. Yeah, I mean if you like talking about random things as well
36:24
as you know, fine craft beers and some wonderful craft music. Hey man,
36:40
welcome back. It's time for game three. Game three is gonna be
36:45
the Bonfire. Usually this game is called the dumpster Fire, but because it's
36:50
our fall episode, we're going to enjoy a warm and toasty bonfire that we
36:54
will still throw the things that we don't like into so that they burn and
36:59
disappear forever. I have five topics. We're gonna go through them one by
37:02
one. Each player will name something from or about that topic that they would
37:07
like removed from society forever. After all players have made their pitch, I'll
37:13
choose the one that I want removed the most, and I'll throw it down
37:16
the bonfire. That player earns a point for their team, and the first
37:21
team to three points wins the game and earns three episode points. So,
37:27
Kyla and Casey, you lost the last game, so you have the choice.
37:29
Would you like to go first or second? It's it's up. It's
37:34
not up to me. Let's first, Yeah, I will go first.
37:39
Go first? All right, fair enough, So our first topic is going
37:43
to be it's a very minor difference. Our first topic is going to be
37:45
pumpkin Everything the nature of everything involve to be like pumpkin flavored in some way.
37:52
What is your least favorite thing about that? What would you like about
37:55
that to just be removed and disappeared forever. Either one of you can go
38:00
as soon as you have something answer separately, or does it count for whoever
38:06
gives the best one, the one I like the most, or rather the
38:07
one I hate the most, because it's just about pumpkins or pumpkin flavored things,
38:13
just pumpkin flavored things, not pumpkins themselves. Yeah, I did see
38:17
one that was real pumpkin scented garbage bags, because then you're smelling like crappy,
38:27
nasty ass garbage plus pumpkins. So then the next time you smell pumpkin,
38:30
you're gonna think of the shit. And I just don't like that.
38:35
I don't want to associate something I like with crappy garbage. Yeah, yeah,
38:40
that one. That's me trying to think of something. But I,
38:46
oh god, what's something like? What's a food item you don't like?
38:51
It's pumpkin flavored? I don't know. I like pumpkin bread, so I
38:57
can't say that. Yeah, I am not a fan of the well,
39:01
I can't say. I think I've only had one pumpkin spice latte in my
39:05
life, So you know what, I'm gonna go against all odds and say
39:09
pumpkin spice laute good because I was I was not a fan of it.
39:15
I like pumpkin bread, then I don't like to drink the pumpkin. And
39:22
the thing with that is like the high bar and the low bar are about
39:25
five miles apart, Like the really good ones are great, but the really
39:29
bad ones are terrible. Yeah, So I'm gonna go, okay, do
39:35
that just toss pumpkin spice, Lante. That's fair, Steve, mean agi,
39:38
which one of you would you like to go first? I'll take it.
39:42
I'm gonna say, just the intensity of the pumpkin spice, just the
39:46
straight up in like I think it's too much. Yeah, like the fucking
39:51
that that mixture of the non actual pumpkin that's spice like mixture they're used whatever,
39:55
it's just too fucking strong. Yeah, and they mellowed it out.
39:59
It probably wouldn't be as offensive to like half the fucking population, Like I
40:02
wouldn't mind when October comes around and people were talking about it as much,
40:07
and I'm like, okay, at least I'm not like getting hit in the
40:09
face with it when they walk by. This is too fucking strong. Fair,
40:14
Yeah, argue, what do you got? She don't mind? Oh?
40:19
I was gonna say, like, yeah, just the overbearing aromaticness of
40:22
pumpkins spice everything. But yeah, just it's just the over I get,
40:30
Like pumpkin is like the big symbol of fall, but there's like all the
40:35
things too, Like I feel like, uh, pumpkins as a symbol is
40:39
just overdone. Okay, the symbol of pumpkins, yeah, saying of pumpkins.
40:45
Fuck yes, I'm gonna put a sign out there with a pumpkin with
40:47
a little circle and across to it. Right next to it's gonna be picking
41:00
and then a pumpkin patch or jail is literally piketing his own crop. Okay,
41:07
well, this to me, it's a no brainer, just because it
41:10
sounded so awful. It's the pumpkin garbage bags. It's you would do that,
41:17
dummies, Oh my god, that's yeah, that's instantly going on the
41:22
fire. That is gonna be one point to Kyla and Casey. Yes,
41:24
finally move on to topic number two. This time the dream Team are gonna
41:29
answer first, gentlemen, what about October? Would you like to throw onto
41:35
the bond fire? And Stevie just looks completely shocked, like Stevie's answer is
41:42
going to be the fact that it ends right, I wants it to be
41:46
October. I mean it's February seven eight days. Man, Let's just let's
41:51
just take the let's just get rid of February. Let's get it let's gets
41:55
added to the end of October October. It's fine, It's like, how
42:01
amazing would that be? Another October Halloween from the thirty first and October October?
42:10
Is that? Literally? What gonna be your answer? It is?
42:14
Now? Okay? Then it's not that it's not long enough yet. Halloween
42:17
part of on October, not just October itself. All right, all right,
42:22
I'll take that. Did I take your thing too? He took my
42:24
thing again? I was gonna say. The extension of Halloween as a holiday
42:32
is that of just one day of celebration like Holloween Halloween. The day should
42:37
be like the major like big day, but there should there should be a
42:40
week leading up to it. Yeah, you can have that one you that's
42:45
your answer. Sorry, thanks, I'm glad I can have. My answer
42:50
will be wet to bear. Your answer is uh, I would for October
42:57
would be the just the one major holiday. I would like the holiday to
43:00
the extent the holiday to be longer. Fair enough, Okay, Kyle and
43:06
Casey, which one of you wants to go first? Okay, I'll go
43:08
first. I think it's silly that Octoberfest happens in September, and I think
43:15
that should be rectified because it is confusing and I don't want to miss out
43:20
any delicious beer. So okay, the fact that october Fest does not take
43:24
place in October, Yeah, it is what you would like to send it
43:28
back? Fair enough readjust fair enough. I'm going to say the gloomy weather.
43:34
Although I like the gloomy weather. There's nothing better than a cool,
43:38
crisp, sunny fall day. But you don't want the clouds of the rain.
43:44
But I don't want the clouds of the rain, and I don't want
43:49
the allergies that come with the clouds in the rain and the wet leaves.
43:53
That's fair, That's fair. I gotta tell you, guys, I'm kind
43:57
of disappointed you missed out on the easy get There is one absolute thing about
44:00
October that I hundred percent hate and would have instantly gone with, and that
44:06
would be Christmas ads. Oh yeah, nothing infuriates me more than seeing Christmas
44:14
ads in October and the people who are trying they listen to Christmas already Listen,
44:20
it's bad enough here encroaching on Thanksgiving, staying you're freaking lane Christmas time.
44:25
Yeah, I don't. I think that's the whole thing we just until
44:29
it happens walkers. But you know nobody want with that, so I have
44:31
to go with my favorite answer from what you guys gave me, and that
44:36
again has to be Kyla's answer, because because rules, because it is irritating
44:45
that October Fest doesn't take place in October. Why isn't it called September Fest
44:50
or just beer Fest? Just move into October? What's the problem in any
44:54
of it? Thank you? All right? So that's another point for Kyl
44:58
and Casey you might not. You just one more and there's three topics left,
45:01
and this one I know you particularly like. Our third topic is going
45:06
to be monster movies. What about monster movies? Would you like to throw
45:13
onto the bonfire and be calling forever? Uh? Well, this is kind
45:17
of political answer, like the helpless Damsel in Distress, Like you know,
45:23
I really like the newer movies, like you know, Bryce Dallas Howard running
45:27
in her high heels and she saves the day and Jurasque World and everything.
45:30
But yeah, Damsel in Distress, bullshit, that's that's done. That's done,
45:35
and like you know, we don't need that anymore. Women women can
45:37
kill the giant crib. Why don't we ever see dudes in distress. Yeah,
45:42
because you see him in real life. But anyway, I digress.
45:47
Yes, they turned proud boys. I love it all right, Sorry sorry
45:55
if I hurt an me proud boys feelings, Oh well, they're not complex
46:01
enough. They don't have the emotional maturity. Then like a sponge. Think
46:08
he's making fun of us. Topic it was, Kyla said the damsel in
46:15
distress. Casey, what would you like to get rid of from Monster movies
46:21
forever? I think all the sequels? Oh, why do we need eighteen
46:27
thousand sequels? Single movie? Yea one idea and stick with it. I
46:37
like that. Like that's fair. Come up with an idea, come up
46:39
with an original, with an original idea, make it into something else.
46:45
So I'm gonna says the endless sequels squel, that's fair, STEVI and Agi,
46:52
what do you need this? I hope I don't take again? Better
46:54
not going? You want to answer first? You go first? See what
46:58
I have? It is kind of scared. Okay, I'm thinking, but
47:12
I'd like to throw into a bonfire for Monster movies, right, yeah.
47:16
Probably the lack of practical effects. It seems like they're going more CG,
47:22
especially with blood effects. In a lot of these movies, and it's so
47:24
blatantly clear and it's horrible. Stop it. It looks bad. It like
47:30
your script could be garbage. The minute I see that, I'm not even
47:34
getting into your script. It's like I see that, No, this is
47:36
garbage fucking film, Like seriously, do it right or don't do it at
47:39
all. And some of the really old movies where they'd use like an iguana
47:44
to look like a dinosaur, we're pretty great, practical shit. It all
47:50
looks better perspective. That is fair. It's actually, honestly the same complain
48:00
and I've had for it for years is that they've become too jump scary.
48:04
There's not enough suspense. There's not like there's not enough build up, like
48:09
you don't okay, cool, you jumped out and startled me. But then
48:15
after that where it's thin when it does it ten more times. We're a
48:17
fan of the suspenseful movies anyway, Like not seeing the monster till the climactic
48:25
end oftentimes is the best way to go around something, building it up,
48:30
seeing what it can do, but not itself is can really set something in
48:34
your mind of paint this picture of something far more protest than could possibly imagine,
48:38
but having it flash in your face every five seconds to remind you what
48:42
it looks like, you know, it's like whatever, Yeah, that's fair,
48:46
that's fair. That's pretty good. This is genuinely tough. But I
48:52
think I'm gonna have to get. The one that irritates me the most is
48:55
all the sequels. This one's going to case is three straight for Kylin Casey.
49:02
They had won this game, this game, all right, everybody's daving,
49:15
everybody's davy. You're right, though, they don't need to reinvent the
49:17
wheel, honestly, yeah, no, it was. It wasn't originally it
49:22
was definitely like, I am the Damazlon Distress Troupe is so overdone. It's
49:27
true. But like we did an episode of a movies episode where I found
49:31
out in the research that if you heard of the movie Silent Night, Deadly
49:36
Night, yeah, so it's not a mainstream movie, it's kind of yeah.
49:39
I think they covered it on Kill Kill Count on YouTube. Probably,
49:45
So this movie wound up getting like five sequels. They were like Silent Night,
49:52
Deadly Night six, and I'm like, are you kidding me? Yeah?
49:55
Look at the Walking Dead, there's like what six spinoff show. I
50:00
mean, they really thought they were going to have like a whole like universe
50:04
side. This is popular, so we're gonna do it. We're gonna meet
50:07
it and make a spinoff show of a spin off show. Yeah, Fear
50:14
the Walking Dead. It don't even get me start out on that one.
50:16
That that show is crap. Yeah, it's terrible. So we have a
50:22
tie game. Cool, So there's only one thing we can do. We
50:24
need a tiebreaker. We're gonna play one more topic. Yeah, and wherever
50:30
gets this topic wins the whole shebang, the whole kittle. Let's do it,
50:34
Stevie. And because you guys lost the game, you have the choice
50:37
do you want to go first or do you want them to go first.
50:40
We're gonna go first. Yeah, we'll go first, all right, you
50:43
guys are gonna go first. So this topic is hay rides. What about
50:47
hay rides? Would you like to throw into the bonfire forever? Remembering,
50:53
of course, this is for the game, and which one of you would
50:57
like to go first? I got too, so go ahead, go verse.
51:00
Then other people's kids's kids o'h my, goddamn, hey, right,
51:07
I'm trying to enjoy the fucking ride with my family or friends this chill and
51:12
you got little Jimmy wo won't sit the fuck down and made Yeah, it's
51:17
like fucking, oh my god. I love going out. I love doing
51:21
shill like that. Now when other people's kids are fucking just behaving as shit,
51:23
it's irritating as fucked. It's like, and I'm not allowed to smack
51:27
them anymore times. The book it changed such bullshit, you know, I
51:34
can't think of another time when it was okay to beats. Two thousand and
51:37
five officially changed two thousand Never slap around some other some kids, you don't
51:45
know. I can't think of the time when that wouldn't be assault. But
51:51
okay, maybe I should have let him go first. He gave me an
51:59
apoler and ball argue. What do you think? What about hay rides?
52:02
You know, oftentimes is the hay rides are meats, but they're always kind
52:08
of flack luster in a way. I get that it's it's the limitation of
52:13
those who are hosting. But oftentimes a hay ride just kind of surmounts to
52:17
paying a teenager ten bucks to hang out in the cornfield and jump out,
52:22
go boo. It's about it, so I feel like throw out kind of
52:27
like the the lack luster ones, the ones that kind of just you're just
52:31
riding in a circuit. You just want to throw away the crappy hay rides.
52:35
Yeah, low energy hay rod effort. Okay, fair enough, kind
52:43
of like Hasey, which one of you would like to go first? Okay?
52:49
I'm tempted to say when you hit a rut and you get stuck,
52:52
but that's kind of dumb because that doesn't happen every time. I'd say questionable,
52:54
Hey, like if you're like, like the hay kind of looks a
53:00
little nasty, like who was sitting on this before him? And it's somebody
53:05
who's I'm a little bit allergic to her, Like, yeah, everything,
53:09
I am allergic to everything, but questionable, Hey, I think it is
53:13
my questionable what has been going down on this hay? What bugs are living
53:17
in this hay? It's fantastic, Casey, what do you what do you
53:22
hate about hay? Well? Going with my uh like the my personality not
53:29
liking haunted things in general. I think haunted hay rides it hated the regular
53:37
hay Rise. Are you just regular old hay Rise totaling along on the West,
53:40
singing songs. Drink inside and give me some spiked cider. Doesn't have
53:47
to be spiked, but spiked sighters is it's Yeah, I think the hauntedness
53:55
of it. So I just want to be surrounded in like the smells.
54:00
Like just I think we went to a really scary one when you were a
54:04
little kid and mom, and like we we watched our parents be scared.
54:09
Yeah, and that's horrifying to watch your parents be scared. That is traumatizing.
54:15
Yeah, don't grab my leg. I'm five years old. Yeah,
54:20
like that's creepy. Okay, so this is actually really hard. So Stevie
54:25
went with my usual go to answer, which is other people, other people.
54:30
However, Kyla got close to my instant win answer for this one,
54:35
which would have been getting hay down. Yeah, the one I went on,
54:44
I was finding hey in my clothes for like a week. I hated
54:51
it, like and I didn't know I may have been allergic to it or
54:54
whatnot, but like, yeah, that whole week I hated it's hey getting
55:01
everywhere. It would have been an instant Kyla actually got pretty close to that
55:07
with questionable yeah, which I would also find out quitting. Oh yeah,
55:15
which one do? I actually sit down it and it just like seeps a
55:19
little bit. Yeah, it's like just a little damp. Yeah. I'm
55:22
trying to be super fair about this because I don't just want to pick the
55:25
winner. What's that? Is that mushroom spores? That just kids? Yeah?
55:30
Is that poop? They? Okay, it could be poop. We're
55:39
gonna we're gonna go with the questionable hey as much as I pop joke.
55:44
Yeah, with the joke. Yeah, if Steve, if you had just
55:49
gone straight other people and not other people's kids, I probably would have given
55:53
it to you. You had you had to be completely everybody but kids,
56:00
that's easy. You feel like you narrowed it down too much. And when
56:04
going straight for the l is that poop? You don't know? I was
56:07
like, oh god, oh god, oh god, it's true. I
56:10
immediately just kind of I felt my spine kind of drenched up, and I
56:14
was like, oh god, yeah, I had to go with that.
56:16
So yeah, it's gonna be. It's gonna be the Kyla Casey won the
