  SPEAKER_03: And these are real signs.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_03: You ready for this one?
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_03: I'm ready.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_03: It's a sign.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_03: This was in a Havana hotel, Havana, Cuba.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_03: Guests are prohibited from talking around in the lobby in large groups in the nude.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_03: Wait, what?
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_03: That's what it says.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know what they meant by that, but they don't want you stop it.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_03: Are prohibited from talking around in the lobby in large groups in the nude.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_02: What about in small groups?
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_03: I I don't know.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_03: I can't figure this one out.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_03: Some of these you may you know what they're trying to say, but that one.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_03: Here's one in a Tokyo barber shop.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_03: All customers promptly executed.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_03: I bet they got good reviews.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, well, and I see what they mean.
• 5:46
  SPEAKER_03: You know, you're you're promptly taken care of, but you know, executed, they they don't realize that means death.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, here's one.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, I can't even pronounce this city where it's in.
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_03: It's a hotel.
• 5:59
  SPEAKER_03: We highly recommend the hotel tart.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_03: I think they're talking about the the dessert, but that's not the way it comes across.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_03: Here's one in an Israel butcher shop.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_03: I slaughter myself twice daily.
• 6:17
  SPEAKER_03: Oh gosh.
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_03: He means he cuts meat twice daily, and you're you can come in and watch.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_03: But but he's yeah, but he he he didn't say that.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_03: It didn't it didn't come out right.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_02: Sounds like you're playing pool over there.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, something like that.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, this is oh, this is hilarious, I think.
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_03: Cologne.
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_03: So I assume cologne would be in uh Germany.
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, I thought it was in people's um medicine cabinets.
• 6:45
  SPEAKER_03: No, not that.
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_03: Not that.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_03: We're not talking about that.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_03: Because of the impropriety of entertaining persons of the opposite sex in the bedroom, it is requested that the lobby be used for this purpose.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_03: So instead of doing it in private, it's right in front of everybody.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_02: Wow, that's different than in Havana.
• 7:06
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah, that's a little different.
• 7:08
  SPEAKER_03: Here's one in Sri Lanka, a restaurant.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_03: Sri Lanka.
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_03: Wait, wait.
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_03: Sri Lanka is okay.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, it's a country.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_03: All vegetables in this establishment have been washed in water, especially passed by the management.
• 7:20
  SPEAKER_01: Huh?
• 7:22
  SPEAKER_02: I'm confused by that.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_02: Wait, what?
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_02: Yes.
• 7:28
  SPEAKER_03: Now you got it.
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_03: No.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_03: What they meant was it the management approved of the water.
• 7:35
  SPEAKER_03: But that's not how they're not going to be able to do that.
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_03: That's not how that's not how they know.
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_03: No, it was passed by the management.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_03: That has a whole different meaning.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_03: Here's another barbershop one in Zanzibar.
• 7:47
  SPEAKER_03: Gentlemen's throats cut with nice sharp razors.
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_02: I'm not going there.
• 7:52
  SPEAKER_03: No.
• 7:53
  SPEAKER_03: No, they they they say they're shaving you with nice sharp razors, but that's not what how it came out.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_03: Ouch.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_03: Here's a Barcelona travel agency has a sign that says, go away.
• 8:07
  SPEAKER_02: Go away.
• 8:08
  SPEAKER_03: What they meant is take a trip and go somewhere, but that's not the way it came out.
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_03: And here's another Paris dress shop.
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, this is great.
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_03: Dresses for street walking.
• 8:22
  SPEAKER_03: Now in English, that has a different meaning.
• 8:25
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 8:25
  SPEAKER_03: But what they meant was dresses for walking on the street and for promenading around their fair city, but that's not the way it came out.
• 8:35
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm glad you clarified.
• 8:36
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm glad I clarified that too.
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_03: Hey, the Super Bowl just happened recently.
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_03: Um I think I want to talk about that for a minute, if that's okay.
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_02: All right.
• 8:49
  SPEAKER_03: It wasn't so super, but let's hit it.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_03: I want to talk about the uh halftime shows.
• 8:55
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 8:55
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_03: Um I didn't care for either one.
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_03: You didn't like the bad rabbit?
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_03: I didn't like the bad rabbit, and I I didn't, I was sorely disappointed by the alternative one.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_03: What do you mean?
• 9:07
  SPEAKER_03: Well, the I expected the alternative to be a lot different than it was.
• 9:14
  SPEAKER_03: What's an alternative?
• 9:15
  SPEAKER_03: Like you watched what another show?
• 9:17
  SPEAKER_03: The TP USA one.
• 9:18
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_03: You watched that?
• 9:21
  SPEAKER_03: How was it?
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_03: Um when it got done, my wife turned to me and said, I didn't understand a single word, and I said I didn't either.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_02: Of the turning point one?
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_02: Yes.
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_02: Wow.
• 9:32
  SPEAKER_02: I would have thought you said that about the other one, but okay.
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_03: No, so well, that that applies to the other one too.
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_03: So that's where they're alike.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_03: The first one, Bad Bunny, was in completely in Spanish, which I barely understand.
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_03: And the other one uh was in English, but we didn't understand that either.
• 9:48
  SPEAKER_03: So uh I give them both uh an F.
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_02: Interesting POV.
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_03: The only thing we liked in the TP USA one was the uh cello and violin duet, which was beautiful.
• 10:01
  SPEAKER_03: But um my criticism of that goes a little deeper because I expected a very simple um acoustic session, and instead um with one person on stage, and instead um it was um flashy, and I never saw so many lights in all my life.
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_03: They had lasers, they had uh fog, they had um haze, and um it was but isn't that what it's about?
• 10:32
  SPEAKER_03: They're trying to like put on the production in the show and draw people in and but that didn't draw me in, it turned me off completely.
• 10:39
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_03: No.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_02: And you work in production, so I can't.
• 10:42
  SPEAKER_03: And I work in production, and I still didn't care for it.
• 10:45
  SPEAKER_03: And um yeah, so I was disappointed.
• 10:48
  SPEAKER_03: I wanted um one person standing up there with a guitar singing, and you know.
• 10:54
  SPEAKER_03: But my problem my issue is that since I'm old, I don't uh connect with the modern music, and all of that was was new stuff.
• 11:05
  SPEAKER_03: And so um my my listening goes back uh quite a ways.
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_03: So I that was it did not appeal to me at all.
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_02: So have you seen some better halftime performances?
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_03: Um, as I recall in the past, I can't remember who, but I've I've I I did see some in the past.
• 11:25
  SPEAKER_03: I don't usually watch the game.
• 11:26
  SPEAKER_03: My wife watches it, and I I'll sit there with her sometime and watch it.
• 11:30
  SPEAKER_03: But um I have seen some that I thought, oh, that's pretty cool.
• 11:35
  SPEAKER_03: But I don't remember who's they who it was.
• 11:38
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 11:39
  SPEAKER_03: So anyway, that was my uh take on uh well since you went into it, I'll give a small take.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, okay, I'll listen.
• 11:47
  SPEAKER_02: I um I didn't catch the turning point one, so I've I've heard things about it.
• 11:53
  SPEAKER_02: Like I I think Kid Rock, I think, performed or something like that.
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_02: Yes, he was there.
• 11:57
  SPEAKER_02: So I've I've I've heard some things and you know the internet, I've seen a couple clips here and there, but actual like viewing, I I was um pretty exclusive, um, not for any particular reason.
• 12:09
  SPEAKER_02: I just left the TV on the Super Bowl the whole time.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_02: So um I watched the bad, the bad bunny one.
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_02: And I mean, so I'm not gonna give, I'm not gonna give the criticism that I thought I was gonna give.
• 12:24
  SPEAKER_02: I thought I was gonna like completely hate it.
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_02: So I don't think it was the worst Super Bowl halftime performance that I've ever seen.
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think it's the worst, but I definitely don't think it was the best.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I think there was some really cool aspects of it.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_02: I I'll I'll give the good stuff first.
• 12:42
  SPEAKER_02: I thought the wedding was pretty cool.
• 12:44
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, the fact that somebody actually got to get married at the Super Bowl halftime show.
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, for anybody, no matter who you are, that's pretty that's a pretty cool thing.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_02: Like, you don't just get to walk away with those bragging rights.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_03: So yeah, that was quite uh an event to happen, and I I thought that was interesting.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_02: I thought that was cool.
• 13:05
  SPEAKER_02: Um, maybe not, you know, something I would have thought of or whatnot, but I thought that was really cool.
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_02: Um, the some of the performances, um I think they could have been better, but I thought it was cool how he paid homage to certain things.
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_02: Like um, there was this New York City um business owner who he like really, you know, made a whole shop and gave a shout-out to.
• 13:32
  SPEAKER_02: I thought that was cool.
• 13:34
  SPEAKER_02: Some of the dancing, uh, some of the dancing was pretty cool, I thought.
• 13:38
  SPEAKER_02: Uh the scenery, the scenery, I thought we were just talking about that.
• 13:42
  SPEAKER_02: The scenery, you were you just apparently found out that there were actual live people in those bushes.
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I didn't realize the grass was actually walking.
• 13:50
  SPEAKER_03: So that surprised me.
• 13:52
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so uh his his scenery that he made like of of the of the atmosphere that made look, you know, with the village looking.
• 14:00
  SPEAKER_02: That was really cool.
• 14:02
  SPEAKER_02: And how they did it, I thought, you know, that was pretty cool.
• 14:06
  SPEAKER_02: Um overall, though, entertainment-wise, from one to ten, I would give it about a six.
• 14:14
  SPEAKER_02: I would give it a six.
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_02: It wasn't the worst thing I ever saw, but it wasn't something that I mean, I was just talking to my wife about it.
• 14:23
  SPEAKER_02: Even even you just take this performance and the last performance with Kendrick Lamar, it feels like the Kendrick Lamar inspired more people because even afterwards, people I mean, for a year later, they're still making dances on this video, walking like him, playing his beat.
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_02: You know, they're still giving homage to that.
• 14:46
  SPEAKER_02: So it hit so many people a different way.
• 14:49
  SPEAKER_02: And I would have liked that experience.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, no matter who it was, I don't care who you put up there.
• 14:55
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, just connect with everybody.
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_02: And the fact that Kendrick Lamar, even though I'm sure he offended some people, like if your name was Drake or whatnot, but um it for the most part it connected with everybody else.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_02: And so that was pretty that was pretty interesting.
• 15:11
  SPEAKER_02: I I I enjoyed that aspect.
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_02: And I wish that when thinking of Super Bowl performances, I wish that they would think more inclusive instead of instead of exclusive.
• 15:23
  SPEAKER_02: Like let's let's put somebody on there that you know is gonna offend half the people.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_02: Like, why why do we do that?
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_02: Even though, yeah, they're controversial and it's gonna create a a a ruckus or whatnot, people's gonna watch.
• 15:35
  SPEAKER_02: But I think that, you know, I think that Kendrick Lamar, I mean, if if I'm gonna give the same scale one to ten, I think that Kendrick Lamar was a good nine.
• 15:44
  SPEAKER_02: A good nine.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_02: Maybe eight and a half.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_02: So I mean, I think it was I think the Kendrick Lamar, I mean, it's not gonna touch the Prince performance that I think is a 20, you know, it's two tens.
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_02: Um, it's not gonna touch that, but there's, you know, there's ways of getting there and being more inclusive, and I think that that's what we should try and work for.
• 16:08
  SPEAKER_02: We shouldn't.
• 16:09
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 16:10

  SPEAKER_03: Oh well.
• 18:24
  SPEAKER_02: Anyways, we must we m I know one thing's for sure.
• 18:28
  SPEAKER_02: To a certain portion of our audience, we probably sound very old right now.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_02: But that's okay.
• 18:34
  SPEAKER_02: But that's okay.
• 18:35
  SPEAKER_02: I don't entitled to our opinions too.
• 18:37
  SPEAKER_03: I'm older than dirt, so I uh you know that's the way we are.
• 18:40
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 18:42
  SPEAKER_03: I have a question for you.
• 18:44
  SPEAKER_03: Do you know why bubblegum is pink?
• 18:48
  SPEAKER_03: No, I don't know why bubblegum is pink.
• 18:51
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, I have the answer to that.
• 18:52
  SPEAKER_03: Would you like to know why the bubblegum is pink?
• 18:55
  SPEAKER_03: Sure.
• 18:56
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 18:57
  SPEAKER_03: In the 1920s, the FLEAR company of Philadelphia wanted to develop a bubblegum that didn't stick to people's faces.
• 19:06
  SPEAKER_03: Uh-huh.
• 19:07
  SPEAKER_03: So a 23-year-old employee, Walter Dimer, took the challenge.
• 19:13
  SPEAKER_03: He started experimenting with different mixtures, and in a year, took him a whole year, he had the answer.
• 19:20
  SPEAKER_03: In 1928, the first workable batch of bubblegum was mixed up in the company mixing machines.
• 19:27
  SPEAKER_02: Gummy.
• 19:28
  SPEAKER_03: The machine started groaning, the mix started popping, and then I realized, I forgot to put in any coloring in the gum, he recalled.
• 19:37
  unknown: Oh no.
• 19:38
  SPEAKER_03: So the next day he made a second batch.
• 19:41
  SPEAKER_03: This time he remembered to color it.
• 19:44
  SPEAKER_03: But the only color he could find was pink.
• 19:47
  SPEAKER_03: Pink was all I had at hand, he says, and that's the reason ever since all over the world that bubblegum has been predominantly pink.
• 19:55
  SPEAKER_03: It was an accident.
• 19:57
  SPEAKER_04: Interesting.
• 19:58
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 19:58
  SPEAKER_03: I thought it was specially chosen for that, because it it's it appeals to kids.
• 20:05
  SPEAKER_03: I remember having that when I was a child, and it was just fun to have pink bubblegum.
• 20:10
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that sounds cool.
• 20:13
  SPEAKER_02: I did not know that.
• 20:14
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
• 20:16
  SPEAKER_03: Let's see what else I have here.
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, this is a story.
• 20:24
  SPEAKER_03: Did you hear the one about the black bear caper in Louisiana?
• 20:30
  SPEAKER_03: No, negative.
• 20:32
  SPEAKER_03: No, I didn't either.
• 20:33
  SPEAKER_03: This was this was news to me.
• 20:35
  SPEAKER_03: It seems that someone reported a bear clinging to a small to small branches in the top of a tall pine tree.
• 20:43
  SPEAKER_03: County officers responded and confirmed that there was indeed a bear in that tree.
• 20:49
  SPEAKER_03: Meanwhile, game wardens and wildlife biologists had been alerted because the black bear is not common in that part of the state and has even been considered for the endangered list.
• 21:02
  SPEAKER_03: Interesting.
• 21:02
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 21:03
  SPEAKER_03: So to save the bear, wildlife people said they needed a veterinarian, a tranquilizer gun, and a substantial net beneath the tree.
• 21:11
  SPEAKER_03: So they gathered up all this stuff.
• 21:13
  SPEAKER_03: They sound like they thought about it.
• 21:15
  SPEAKER_03: The vet arrived and delivered the tranquilizer darts, but there was no visible reaction from the bear.
• 21:25
  SPEAKER_03: We were now into about the eighth hour of rescue efforts.
• 21:29
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine that bear being up there for at least eight hours?
• 21:32
  SPEAKER_03: Everybody underneath concerned about it, and they still hadn't rescued it.
• 21:36
  SPEAKER_02: That's crazy.
• 21:37
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 21:38
  SPEAKER_03: The area was ringed with 50 or more avid spectators.
• 21:43
  SPEAKER_03: Everybody was worried about the little bear.
• 21:46
  SPEAKER_03: After the tranquilizer darts failed, they decided that the only reasonable option was to cut the tree in a manner that would cause it to fall slowly to soften the blow to the bear.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, d can you imagine they couldn't get up there, so they had to cut down this whole tree just to get help that poor little bear.
• 22:06
  SPEAKER_02: That's nuts.
• 22:07
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 22:08
  SPEAKER_03: When the tree came down, everyone rushed to secure the bear.
• 22:12
  SPEAKER_03: And it was at that point when all faces turned red.
• 22:16
  SPEAKER_02: It wasn't a bear?
• 22:18
  SPEAKER_03: It wasn't a bear.
• 22:19
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my.
• 22:20
  SPEAKER_03: They had spent over eight hours rescuing a large black garbage bag that had blown into the tree.
• 22:26
  SPEAKER_02: And they cut a whole tree down because they cut a whole tree down because of that.
• 22:30
  SPEAKER_03: Nobody, I guess they didn't get out binoculars or anything to see that it wasn't a bear.
• 22:36
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 22:37
  SPEAKER_02: That's crazy.
• 22:38
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 22:38
  SPEAKER_03: Isn't that crazy?
• 22:39
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 22:40
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, here's here's an odd little fact.
• 22:44
  SPEAKER_03: You know that names are not always what they seem.
• 22:47
  SPEAKER_03: Because I know your last name is pronounced differently than it's spelled.
• 22:51
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 22:51
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, for example.
• 22:53

  SPEAKER_03: This is a the common Welsh name.
• 22:58
  SPEAKER_03: This is from peep somebody in Wales, okay?
• 23:02
  SPEAKER_03: The common Welsh name spelled, capital B Z J X X L L W C P is pronounced Jackson.
• 23:14
  SPEAKER_03: There's not a vowel in it.
• 23:17
  SPEAKER_03: Capital B Z J X X L L W C P is pronounced Jackson.
• 23:22
  SPEAKER_03: Now who in the world would know that?
• 23:24
  SPEAKER_03: Huh?
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_03: That's I know.
• 23:26
  SPEAKER_03: Isn't that an odd little fact?
• 23:29
  SPEAKER_02: Man, that would confuse a lot of people on the Wheel of Fortune.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_03: I can't even imagine what the Welsh language would look like with no vowels in it, how you'd ever learn to pronounce words.
• 23:41
  SPEAKER_02: No, that's crazy.
• 23:42
  SPEAKER_03: Isn't that crazy?
• 23:43
  SPEAKER_02: That's insane.
• 23:48
  SPEAKER_03: This is uh I'm gonna just have odds, odds and ends of facts and information today.
• 23:53
  SPEAKER_03: Is that okay?
• 23:54
  SPEAKER_03: I'm just gonna I'm just I've just kind of pulled a bunch of information together and we'll see what we got.

  SPEAKER_03: Oh, no.
• 24:16
  SPEAKER_03: Which he carried everywhere.

  SPEAKER_03: So they were ready to arrest him for drugs, and it was his poor departed wife the whole time.
• 24:25
  SPEAKER_03: So he he they let him go.
• 24:28

• 24:29
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_03: Lawsuit.
• 24:31
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, possibly.
• 24:34
  SPEAKER_03: Here's an interesting story about the IRS.
• 24:38
  SPEAKER_03: As a public service to taxpayers, the Internal Revenue Service provides a free tax information service by phone.
• 24:46
  SPEAKER_03: All you have to do is call the 800 number listed in your local directory, and you can get your tax questions answered.
• 24:52
  SPEAKER_03: Now, isn't that easy?
• 24:53
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 24:53
  SPEAKER_03: That's nice.
• 24:55
  SPEAKER_03: However, there was an issue.
• 24:57
  SPEAKER_03: Uh-oh.
• 24:58
  SPEAKER_03: In Portland, Oregon, taxpayers got a different type of service.
• 25:03
  SPEAKER_03: When the phone was answered, callers heard a sultry voice breathing.
• 25:06
  SPEAKER_03: Hi, sexy.
• 25:09
  SPEAKER_03: Do we have to pay extra for that service?
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_03: The embarrassed IRS later explained that the Portland phone directory had misprinted the number.
• 25:18
  SPEAKER_03: Instead of the IRS, callers were reaching a certain business that I shall not name.
• 25:23
  SPEAKER_02: So um, I bet they were benefiting a dollar a minute or something.
• 25:27
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, something like that.
• 25:29
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine?
• 25:30
  SPEAKER_03: I would be, oh, I would be so embarrassed if I call no.
• 25:34
  SPEAKER_03: No, I couldn't do that.
• 25:38
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, here's one that'll get that'll I thought this was hilarious.

• 25:46
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 25:47
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.

• 26:15
  SPEAKER_03: Can you believe that?
• 26:17
  SPEAKER_03: What are the odds?
• 26:19
  SPEAKER_03: He must have been in a small village like Josiah.
• 26:22
  SPEAKER_03: Must have been.
• 26:24
  SPEAKER_03: The pickings were rather slim, it sounds like.
• 26:28

• 27:30
  SPEAKER_03: What?
• 27:30
  SPEAKER_03: She tried to remain cool, but she was so flustered she stuck the ice cream cone in her purse.

  SPEAKER_03: John Howard Payne never had a permanent residence.
• 33:47
  SPEAKER_03: All right, no way.

  SPEAKER_03: Hess 39, burglarizing a greenhouse, he was wearing nothing.
• 36:06
  SPEAKER_03: What?
• 36:07
  SPEAKER_03: He replied that he was naked so that anyone who saw him in the greenhouse couldn't identify him by describing his clothes.
• 36:15
  SPEAKER_02: But don't they have other things now they can describe?
• 36:18
  SPEAKER_03: I would think so, but um that was not very smart because obviously he got caught.
• 36:26
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 36:28
  SPEAKER_03: Oh here.
• 36:29
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, this one, oh this one's I don't know if this is better or worse.

  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, there had to be one.
• 37:14
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, strolled into the bowling alley, rented a pair of shoes, and proceeded to take off his clothes.
• 37:20
  SPEAKER_03: As a local church group, watched in horror, Hughes went on to bowl at 225 game, wearing nothing but a cowboy hat and bowling shoes.
• 37:32
  SPEAKER_02: They let him finish the whole game.
• 37:34
  SPEAKER_03: They let him finish because they advertised it.
• 37:35
  SPEAKER_03: I guess it has to be truth in advertising.
• 37:38
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my gosh.
• 37:40
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 37:41
  SPEAKER_02: I'm glad he stuck his fingers in the right hole and made a 250 or yeah.

  SPEAKER_03: I remember them.
• 38:01
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, here's one.
• 38:02
  SPEAKER_03: But this one is a little different.

  SPEAKER_03: But he was released when police learned he was fleeing a mortuary where a doctor had officially pronounced him dead.
• 38:22
  unknown: Oh.
• 38:22
  SPEAKER_03: So he was in a mortuary.
• 38:24
  SPEAKER_03: They thought he was dead.
• 38:25

  SPEAKER_02: I mean, they want their money.
• 38:33
  SPEAKER_03: Mm-hmm.
• 38:35
  SPEAKER_02: So you came in dead, you're gonna be dead.
• 38:37
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 38:38
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 38:39
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my goodness.
• 38:42
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, gee.

  SPEAKER_03: Oh, good.
• 38:46
  SPEAKER_03: I got I got bathroom humor.
• 38:49
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my gosh, your bladder.
• 38:51
  SPEAKER_02: Your bladder can never get through the show.
• 38:52
  SPEAKER_03: I know, I know.
• 38:53
  SPEAKER_03: I have to have bathroom humor.
• 38:55
  SPEAKER_03: You know each episode.
• 38:57
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, you ready for this one?
• 38:58
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I heard the toilet flush.
• 39:00
  SPEAKER_02: I'm good.
• 39:01
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 39:03
  SPEAKER_03: This one is called As Good as Gold.
• 39:09
  SPEAKER_03: The inventor, Japanese electronics giant Matsushita.
• 39:14
  SPEAKER_03: Product.
• 39:15
  SPEAKER_03: An electric toilet seat that uses gold dust to filter out unpleasant smells.
• 39:20
  SPEAKER_03: Ooh!
• 39:21
  SPEAKER_02: This sounds great.
• 39:23
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 39:24
  SPEAKER_03: Is it on the market?
• 39:25
  SPEAKER_03: Can I purchase it?
• 39:26
  SPEAKER_03: I need it.
• 39:26
  SPEAKER_03: Let's see what it says.
• 39:28
  SPEAKER_03: How it works.
• 39:29
  SPEAKER_03: When a person sits on the toilet seat, an electric fan begins blowing the air in the toilet bowl into a deodorization device containing the gold dust and zeolite, whatever that is.
• 39:42
  SPEAKER_03: They act as a catalyst to oxidize and deodorize ammonia and other compounds.
• 39:48
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, I didn't know gold could do that.
• 39:51
  SPEAKER_03: Another filter containing manganese removes compounds containing sulfur.
• 39:57
  SPEAKER_03: Toilet seat air filters are popular in Japan where lavatories at home are often so small and airless that smells hang around for some time.
• 40:08
  SPEAKER_03: So it's an actual one in at least in Japan.
• 40:12
  SPEAKER_02: That's pretty cool.
• 40:14
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 40:16
  SPEAKER_02: I want to know what it smells.
• 40:18
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, huh?
• 40:19
  SPEAKER_02: In a weird way.
• 40:20
  SPEAKER_02: I want to know what it's like to use it.
• 40:24
  SPEAKER_03: Does it work?
• 40:26
  SPEAKER_03: Um, I guess it does.
• 40:29
  SPEAKER_03: I guess those in Japan in Japan use them.
• 40:32
  SPEAKER_02: That would be that would be interesting.
• 40:35
  SPEAKER_02: I would use that more than that other thing.
• 40:37
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 40:38
  SPEAKER_02: That thing that goes up and sprays everything.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that.
• 40:41
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that.
• 40:41
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that big day.
• 40:42
  SPEAKER_02: Bow Day, B day.
• 40:44
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 40:44
  SPEAKER_03: B Day?
• 40:45
  SPEAKER_03: B Day.
• 40:45
  SPEAKER_03: I don't think it's a B Day.
• 40:47
  SPEAKER_03: B Day.
• 40:47
  SPEAKER_03: No, it's not a B Day.
• 40:48
  SPEAKER_03: No.
• 40:49
  SPEAKER_03: I think it's a Bow Day.
• 40:51
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, I don't.
• 40:52
  SPEAKER_03: I wasn't going to read this one, but this is news from England.
• 40:56
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, so we can blame it on England.
• 40:58
  SPEAKER_03: We don't.
• 40:59
  SPEAKER_03: Across the ponds.
• 41:00
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 41:00
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 41:01
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, ready?
• 41:02
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 41:02
  SPEAKER_03: British tax dollars at work.
• 41:05
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, so this is how they use their tax money there.
• 41:08
  SPEAKER_03: England's Department of Trade and Industry conducted a survey of emergency room admissions for the year 1999.
• 41:16
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, so you got that 1999.
• 41:19
  SPEAKER_03: Among their findings, trouser accidents when anatomy and zippers collide resulted in more visits to the country's emergency rooms, 5,945, than any other bathroom-related accident.
• 41:37
  SPEAKER_03: What?
• 41:38
  SPEAKER_02: What?
• 41:39
  SPEAKER_03: If you can imagine that.
• 41:44
  SPEAKER_03: Would that be men only?
• 41:45
  SPEAKER_03: I would imagine men only.
• 41:47
  SPEAKER_03: It didn't say, but I would imagine.
• 41:50
  SPEAKER_02: Oh man.
• 41:53
  SPEAKER_02: That's a procedure I don't want to encounter.
• 41:57
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, oh, oh, here's something.
• 41:59
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, this goes along with it, okay?
• 42:01
  SPEAKER_03: And I don't understand this.
• 42:02
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, I don't understand how this could happen.
• 42:04
  SPEAKER_03: But accidents involving sponges resulted in 787 trips to the hospital.
• 42:11
  SPEAKER_03: How?
• 42:12
  SPEAKER_03: How to sponge?
• 42:13
  SPEAKER_03: Because the sponge is soft.
• 42:15
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 42:15
  SPEAKER_02: That's yeah.
• 42:17
  SPEAKER_03: Accident involving toilet roll holders, 329.
• 42:22
  SPEAKER_02: You mean that cardboard paper thingy that's in the center, the liner?
• 42:28
  SPEAKER_03: I'm assuming.
• 42:30
  SPEAKER_02: That takes somebody to the hospital?
• 42:32
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, 329 people.
• 42:33
  SPEAKER_02: What were they doing with it?
• 42:35
  SPEAKER_03: Your guess is as good as mine.
• 42:37
  SPEAKER_03: I my imagination doesn't even want to go there.
• 42:40
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my God.
• 42:44
  SPEAKER_03: And um we had talked in an earlier episode about Alaska and their their toilets.
• 42:52
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know if I had put this in here or not.
• 42:54
  SPEAKER_03: And we talked about Alaska was first among the 50 states in percentages of homes without indoor plumbing.
• 43:03
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you already covered it.
• 43:04
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, I covered.
• 43:04
  SPEAKER_03: I didn't have this one marked off.
• 43:06
  SPEAKER_03: I'm sorry.
• 43:07
  SPEAKER_02: Doug's gonna get you on.
• 43:09
  SPEAKER_03: I know he's gonna get me on that.
• 43:12
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, here's what here's a travel item.
• 43:15
  SPEAKER_03: And I can speak about this uh from first experience.
• 43:19
  SPEAKER_03: And after I read this, I'll tell you about it.
• 43:22
  SPEAKER_02: I'm sure you will.
• 43:23
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 43:24
  SPEAKER_03: It's called If You Build It, They Will Come.
• 43:26
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, like the Field of Dreams?
• 43:28
  SPEAKER_03: Like the Field of Dreams, only this is something else.
• 43:31
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 43:32
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 43:33
  SPEAKER_03: It's about a roadside attraction.
• 43:37
  SPEAKER_03: You ready for this?
• 43:39
  SPEAKER_03: I'm ready.
• 43:40
  SPEAKER_03: And I've been there and I've seen it, so I know it exists.
• 43:44
  SPEAKER_03: They have signs on the freeway for miles around before you get there.
• 43:49
  SPEAKER_03: 300 miles, you know, 200 miles.
• 43:51
  SPEAKER_03: You're almost there.
• 43:52
  SPEAKER_03: Anyway, so we went there and stopped.
• 43:57
  SPEAKER_03: This is called Wall Drug in Wall South.
• 44:00
  SPEAKER_03: Dakota.
• 44:02
  SPEAKER_03: Wall drug.
• 44:03
  SPEAKER_03: Build it.
• 44:04
  SPEAKER_03: One summer day in 1936, Dorothy and Ted Hewsted had a brilliant idea.
• 44:10
  SPEAKER_03: They put signs up along Highway I-90, before it was I-90, of course, because we didn't have the interstates back in 36, advertising their struggling mom and pop drugstore.
• 44:23
  SPEAKER_03: As an afterthought, they included an offer for free ice water.
• 44:27
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine free ice water back then?
• 44:30
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 44:31
  SPEAKER_03: Wall drug was situated 10 miles from the entrance to the South Dakota Badlands.
• 44:36
  SPEAKER_03: And on sweltering summer days, before cars had air conditioning, the suggestion of free ice water made rickety old wall drug seem like an oasis.
• 44:48
  SPEAKER_03: It would, wouldn't it?
• 44:49
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 44:51
  SPEAKER_03: When Ted got back from putting up the first sign, half a dozen cars were already parked in front of his store.
• 44:58
  SPEAKER_03: So that was quite a draw.
• 45:01
  SPEAKER_03: The Eustace knew they were on to something.
• 45:04
  SPEAKER_03: Ted built an empire of billboards all over the United States, planting signs farther and farther from his drugstore.
• 45:11
  SPEAKER_03: And I saw many of those.
• 45:13
  SPEAKER_03: There's a sign in Amsterdam.
• 45:16
  SPEAKER_03: Amsterdam of all places.
• 45:17
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 45:18
  SPEAKER_03: 5,397 miles to wall drug.
• 45:21
  SPEAKER_03: That's isn't that incredible?
• 45:23
  SPEAKER_03: That's marketing.
• 45:24
  SPEAKER_03: Maybe we'll hear from our Amsterdam people about that.
• 45:28
  SPEAKER_03: There's one at the Taj Mahal.
• 45:31
  SPEAKER_03: Only 10,728 miles to wall drug.
• 45:34
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my gosh.
• 45:35
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 45:36
  SPEAKER_03: Isn't that incredible?
• 45:38
  SPEAKER_03: Today, Wall Drug is an enormous 50,000 square foot tourist mecca with a 520-seat restaurant and countless specialty and souvenir shops.
• 45:52
  SPEAKER_03: If it's hokey, odds are that Wall Drug sells it.
• 45:56
  SPEAKER_03: They also have a collection of robots, including a singing gorilla and a mechanical cowboy orchestra.
• 46:03
  SPEAKER_03: No way.
• 46:03
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you put in a quarter or something in a place.
• 46:06
  SPEAKER_03: Wall Drugs spends over$300,000 on billboards, but every cent of it pays off.
• 46:12
  SPEAKER_03: The store lures in 20,000 visitors a day in the summer and grosses more than 11 million each year.
• 46:19
  SPEAKER_03: That's crazy.
• 46:21
  SPEAKER_03: I'm in the wrong business.
• 46:22
  SPEAKER_03: And they still give away free ice water, 5,000 glasses a day.
• 46:27
  SPEAKER_03: And we went there and we didn't even see the whole store.
• 46:30
  SPEAKER_03: It is so big.
• 46:31
  SPEAKER_03: Really?
• 46:32
  SPEAKER_03: It's so big.
• 46:32
  SPEAKER_03: We we looked at the souvenirs and we bought something from Waldrog.
• 46:36

  SPEAKER_02: But didn't they see who put the tape over the camera?
• 47:32
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.

  SPEAKER_03: Would-be burglar Pedro Cardona tried to break into a house by squeezing through a doggy door.
• 48:14
  SPEAKER_03: I can see a problem here.
• 48:16
  SPEAKER_03: It was something like putting two pounds of bologna in a one-pound bag.
• 48:21
  SPEAKER_03: Can't you just see that?
• 48:24
  SPEAKER_02: It's like putting a square peg in a round hall.
• 48:27
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 48:28
  SPEAKER_03: As the portly Cardona became wedged in halfway through, rescuers had to chop the door down with axes to get him out.
• 48:37
  SPEAKER_03: Busted.
• 48:38
  SPEAKER_03: He should have uh measured the door and he should have measured himself before he uh attempted that.

• 49:38
  SPEAKER_03: Amazingly, he called the taxi company to inquire about the bag and was told it had been turned over to the police.
• 49:44
  SPEAKER_03: So he went to the local police station to claim this bag of marijuana.
• 49:53

• 50:53
  SPEAKER_02: Sounds like a setup.
• 50:55
  SPEAKER_03: Amazingly, they did.

  SPEAKER_03: Police arrived minutes later and arrested the hungry thieves who were patiently waiting in line for a cold cut trail.
• 51:04
  SPEAKER_02: They didn't even get their sandwiches.
• 51:06
  SPEAKER_03: They didn't even get their sandwich.
• 51:07
  SPEAKER_03: Oh man.
• 51:11
  SPEAKER_03: Isn't that funny?
• 51:14
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, gee.
• 51:15
  SPEAKER_03: Some people just don't plan very well, do they?
• 51:19
  SPEAKER_03: No.
• 51:19
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 51:20
  SPEAKER_03: Oh.
• 51:21
  SPEAKER_03: Well, here's a s here's a story about uh a duck.
• 51:25
  SPEAKER_03: A duck?
• 51:27
  SPEAKER_03: A duck.
• 51:28
  SPEAKER_03: What the duck.
• 51:29
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, what the duck.
• 51:30
  SPEAKER_03: Are you ready?
• 51:31
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, sir.
• 51:32
  SPEAKER_03: A duck raises sheep.
• 51:35
  SPEAKER_01: Huh?
• 51:36
  SPEAKER_01: What?
• 51:37
  SPEAKER_01: Sheep in me.
• 51:38
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
• 51:39
  SPEAKER_03: Wait till you hear this.
• 51:40
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 51:41
  SPEAKER_03: Wait till you hear this one.
• 51:42
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 51:45
  SPEAKER_03: In 1964, a freighter carrying 6,000 sheep capsized.
• 51:50
  SPEAKER_03: No way.
• 51:51
  SPEAKER_03: And sank in Kuwait's harbor.
• 51:54
  SPEAKER_03: With the sheep?
• 51:55
  SPEAKER_03: With the sheep.
• 51:55
  SPEAKER_03: Oh.
• 51:56
  SPEAKER_03: I know it's sad.
• 51:57
  SPEAKER_03: With so many dead animals underwater, Kuwaitis worried that the rotting carcasses would pollute the water.
• 52:04
  SPEAKER_03: A way had to be found to lift the ship and remove the sheep before the harbor was contaminated.
• 52:11
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 52:12
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 52:12
  SPEAKER_03: Danish engineer Carl Kroyer remembered a comic book in which Donald Duck and his nephews raised a sunk a sunken ship by stuffing it full of ping pong balls.
• 52:26
  SPEAKER_03: No way.
• 52:27
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah?
• 52:28
  SPEAKER_03: So the idea was worth a try.
• 52:30
  SPEAKER_03: So Cro Kroyer had 27 million polystyrene balls injected into the hull.
• 52:37
  SPEAKER_03: It worked.
• 52:38
  SPEAKER_03: Thanks in part to Donald Duck.
• 52:41
  SPEAKER_03: So a duck raises sheep.
• 52:44
  SPEAKER_03: So they got the s the they got the ship up, got rid of the dead bodies, and what?
• 52:51
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 52:52
  SPEAKER_03: Wasn't that something?
• 52:53
  SPEAKER_02: That is really cool, actually.
• 52:55
  SPEAKER_02: I like that.
• 52:56
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 52:56
  SPEAKER_02: Donald Duck saved somebody's life.
• 52:59
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, who would have thought?
• 53:01
  SPEAKER_02: He wasn't just ducking around.
• 53:05
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, uh yeah, yeah, quack.
• 53:07
  SPEAKER_03: Thanks.
• 53:09
  SPEAKER_03: Thanks.
• 53:10
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, here's one about malpractice.
• 53:15
  SPEAKER_03: So this must be a doctor one.
• 53:16
  SPEAKER_03: Bad medicine, it's called.
• 53:18
  SPEAKER_03: Ouch.
• 53:19
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 53:20
  SPEAKER_03: These days you can easily find dozens of effective remedies at the local pharmacy to treat anything from a sore toe to scalp itch.
• 53:29
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 53:31
  SPEAKER_03: So it's hard to imagine that less than 200 years ago, a person complaining to a trusted physician about a simple ailment was likely to undergo barbaric treatment that included draining of the blood, blistering of the skin, and induced vomiting.
• 53:48
  unknown: Ah.
• 53:50
  SPEAKER_03: Ooh.
• 53:51
  SPEAKER_03: In the 1800s, doctors were scarce and ill-trained.
• 53:55
  SPEAKER_03: There were no regulations concerning the education of physicians.
• 53:59
  SPEAKER_03: How sad.
• 54:01
  SPEAKER_03: With just a little book learning or information passed down by a family member, almost anyone could set up shop and call himself a doctor.
• 54:10
  SPEAKER_02: Some things never change.
• 54:12
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah, there are some fake ones out there.
• 54:15
  SPEAKER_03: There are there were no antibiotics, no x-rays, no vaccines, and none of the diagnostic tools we now take for granted.
• 54:23
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine?
• 54:24
  SPEAKER_03: I I wouldn't want to live back then.
• 54:26
  SPEAKER_02: Wow.
• 54:26
  SPEAKER_03: No wonder people died when they were born.
• 54:29
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, a lot of babies passed.
• 54:31
  SPEAKER_03: They didn't live out of, you know, five, six, seven, because yeah, of all the diseases.
• 54:38
  SPEAKER_02: That's sad.
• 54:38
  SPEAKER_02: No wonder why you took your time machine to this time zone.
• 54:41
  SPEAKER_03: Right.
• 54:42
  SPEAKER_03: Surgery was often performed by barbers.
• 54:46
  SPEAKER_02: Oh no.
• 54:47
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, they did.
• 54:49
  SPEAKER_03: Not only did they give haircuts and shaves, but they also extracted teeth, lanced boils, and bled patients.
• 54:56
  SPEAKER_03: In fact, the colors of the familiar barbers pole are derived from the practice of bloodletting, red for blood and white for bandages.
• 55:03
  SPEAKER_03: So there we go.
• 55:04
  SPEAKER_02: No way, I never knew that.
• 55:06
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 55:06
  SPEAKER_03: The pole itself was sometimes held by the patient in order to make his veins stand out and make the bloodletting easier.
• 55:15
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, heck no.
• 55:16
  SPEAKER_03: In the end, the patient was as likely to die from the treatment as from the illness.
• 55:21
  SPEAKER_03: That sounds like human torture.
• 55:24
  SPEAKER_03: It does.
• 55:25
  SPEAKER_03: Oh.
• 55:27
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 55:27
  SPEAKER_03: We were talking earlier off-air about blood and pain and all that.
• 55:32
  SPEAKER_03: And yeah, I didn't know I had that story to go along with it.
• 55:35
  SPEAKER_03: Would you like to have a story about revenge?
• 55:37
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 55:38
  SPEAKER_03: But it's a good one.
• 55:38
  SPEAKER_03: It's not like lovers, you know, somebody doing that.
• 55:44
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, something like that.
• 55:44
  SPEAKER_03: Isn't there a movie or a book or something?
• 55:47
  SPEAKER_03: Something like that.
• 55:48
  SPEAKER_03: This is totally different.
• 55:49
  SPEAKER_03: The victim was Alman Brown Stog Stoger.
• 55:53
  SPEAKER_03: I can't pronounce it, Stroger, a Kansas City Undertaker.
• 55:56
  SPEAKER_03: Oh.
• 55:57
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 55:57
  SPEAKER_03: He was the victim.
• 55:59
  SPEAKER_03: In the late 1880s, a friend of Stroger's passed away.
• 56:03
  SPEAKER_03: And he expected to get the funeral business.
• 56:06
  SPEAKER_03: But the call never came.
• 56:08
  SPEAKER_03: Huh?
• 56:08
  SPEAKER_03: He blamed the local switchboard operator, whom he suspected of steering calls to her husband, who was a rival undertaker.
• 56:16
  SPEAKER_03: Uh oh.
• 56:17
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 56:18
  SPEAKER_03: So she was kind of, you know, undercutting the She was the middleman.
• 56:23
  SPEAKER_03: Right.
• 56:24
  SPEAKER_03: But guess what happened?
• 56:25
  SPEAKER_03: Here was his revenge.
• 56:27
  SPEAKER_03: Stroger invented the world's first automatic telephone exchange and later the first dial telephone, making it possible for people to dial directly without the help of an operator.
• 56:39
  SPEAKER_03: Ooh.
• 56:40
  SPEAKER_03: Took out the middleman.
• 56:41
  SPEAKER_03: Took out the middleman, so he got all the business that he should have had.
• 56:47
  SPEAKER_03: Hmm.
• 56:48
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 56:49
  SPEAKER_03: I have a story about Elvis too.
• 56:51
  SPEAKER_03: You want to hear this one?
• 56:52
  SPEAKER_03: I have it.
• 56:52
  SPEAKER_03: This is a true story.
• 56:54
  SPEAKER_03: Um I used to work with a lady when I was at the film rental place.
• 57:00
  SPEAKER_02: Just one?
• 57:01
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 57:02
  SPEAKER_03: She was from um Memphis.
• 57:05
  SPEAKER_03: And she was a friend of Elvis.
• 57:07
  SPEAKER_03: And she would ride around with him in his car and his friends and everything.
• 57:11
  SPEAKER_03: And she was very close to him.
• 57:13
  SPEAKER_03: And so when he died, she about she had to take the day off work because she was so traumatized by it.
• 57:18
  SPEAKER_03: So that's the closest I ever got to him was a lady that used to hang around with him.
• 57:24
  SPEAKER_02: You never went to any of his concerts or anything?
• 57:26
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, no, no.
• 57:27
  SPEAKER_03: Never listened to his music except what came up on the radio.
• 57:30
  SPEAKER_03: No.
• 57:30
  SPEAKER_03: I never bought an album or anything.
• 57:33
  SPEAKER_02: My grandma apparently went to one of his concerts with her with her sister.
• 57:38
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, cool.

  SPEAKER_02: And they uh they had to share the same pair of binoculars and still eighty years later, they still argue about you went past me the binoculars long enough, you all go.

  SPEAKER_03: Honestly, they still talk about that.
• 57:51
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.

  SPEAKER_03: Several years ago, um, my wife and I were in Vegas, and we walked up to uh the Tropicana, and outside they had a huge uh slot machine, and they invited everybody to pull the handle and see if they won anything.
• 58:08
  SPEAKER_03: Oh?
• 58:09
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 58:10
  SPEAKER_03: So I tried it, I got nothing.
• 58:12

• 58:48

  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 1:01:21
  SPEAKER_03: The first permanent movie theater was the 400-seat Vitoscope Hall in New Orleans.
• 1:01:27
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 1:01:28
  SPEAKER_03: Admission was 10 cents.
• 1:01:30
  SPEAKER_02: That's a deal.
• 1:01:32
  SPEAKER_03: Patrons were allowed to look in the projection room and see the Edison Vitoscope Projector for another 10 cents.
• 1:01:39
  SPEAKER_03: That's cool.
• 1:01:39
  SPEAKER_03: I would do that.
• 1:01:40
  SPEAKER_03: I would too.
• 1:01:41
  SPEAKER_03: Most of the films shown there were short scenic items, including the first English film to be released in America.
• 1:01:47
  SPEAKER_03: Robert Paul's Waves of Dover.
• 1:01:51
  SPEAKER_03: Waves off Dover, I'm sorry.
• 1:01:54
  SPEAKER_03: A major attraction was the film Mae Irwin Kiss, which introduced sex to the American screen when people kissed for the first time.
• 1:02:04
  SPEAKER_03: My eyes.
• 1:02:05
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 1:02:05
  SPEAKER_03: In 1896, that was that was a scandal.
• 1:02:10
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 1:02:11
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine?
• 1:02:12
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 1:02:13
  SPEAKER_03: You know that I work with lighting and I and I like lighting.
• 1:02:16
  SPEAKER_02: Yep.
• 1:02:17
  SPEAKER_03: So this is the first Christmas tree with electric lights.
• 1:02:21
  SPEAKER_03: Oh.
• 1:02:22
  SPEAKER_03: December 1882.
• 1:02:24
  SPEAKER_03: That was just a little before I was born.
• 1:02:28
  SPEAKER_03: So I I be I missed that seeing that one.
• 1:02:31
  SPEAKER_03: But the first electrically illuminated Christmas tree was installed in New York City home of Edward H.
• 1:02:38
  SPEAKER_03: Johnson, an associate of Thomas Edison, which makes sense.
• 1:02:42
  SPEAKER_03: That makes sense.
• 1:02:43
  SPEAKER_03: The first commercially produced Christmas tree lamps were manufactured in nine socket sets by the Edison General Electric Company in 1901.
• 1:02:54
  SPEAKER_03: Each socket took a miniature two candle power carbon filament lamp operating at 32 volts.
• 1:03:01
  SPEAKER_03: Two candle power.
• 1:03:03
  SPEAKER_03: I bet that was like very dim, but at least there was an electric light you could put on it.
• 1:03:08
  SPEAKER_03: You didn't have to put candles on your tree anymore and burn down your house.
• 1:03:12
  SPEAKER_02: People actually put real candles on the tree?
• 1:03:15
  SPEAKER_03: They did.
• 1:03:15
  SPEAKER_03: They really did.
• 1:03:16
  SPEAKER_03: They had and you there were accidents galore because people weren't careful with them.
• 1:03:20
  SPEAKER_03: Oh gosh, that's crazy.
• 1:03:22
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, so I'm glad somebody actually invented those.
• 1:03:25
  SPEAKER_02: Would they be like different color candles or something?
• 1:03:27
  SPEAKER_02: Almost like different colored.
• 1:03:29
  SPEAKER_03: No, they were usually white ones.
• 1:03:31
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, okay.
• 1:03:31
  SPEAKER_03: And yeah.
• 1:03:32
  SPEAKER_03: They were small.
• 1:03:33
  SPEAKER_03: They weren't huge ones, but they were small.
• 1:03:37
  SPEAKER_03: That's what she said.
• 1:03:42
  SPEAKER_03: We have to cut that part.
• 1:03:57
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 1:03:59
  SPEAKER_03: In a previous episode, I had talked about lucky finds.
• 1:04:02
  SPEAKER_03: Remember that?
• 1:04:03
  SPEAKER_03: And people found some neat stuff.
• 1:04:04
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
• 1:04:05
  SPEAKER_02: So neat.
• 1:04:07
  SPEAKER_03: By accident.
• 1:04:08
  SPEAKER_03: And this is called a the trip of a lifetime.
• 1:04:13
  SPEAKER_02: Have a nice trip.
• 1:04:14
  SPEAKER_02: See you next fall.
• 1:04:16
  SPEAKER_03: This was uh taxi driver.
• 1:04:19
  SPEAKER_03: In his taxi cab near Brighton in southern England.
• 1:04:24
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 1:04:24
  SPEAKER_03: In August 2001, Colin Bagshaw, 39, and his girlfriend hailed a cab and climbed in for a ride across town.
• 1:04:34
  SPEAKER_03: In the cab, Bagshaw's girlfriend happened to look at the driver's identification badge and saw that his name was Barry Bagshaw.
• 1:04:43
  SPEAKER_03: The driver was Colin's father, whom he hadn't seen since 1966.
• 1:04:49
  SPEAKER_01: What?
• 1:04:50
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 1:04:50
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine that?
• 1:04:52
  SPEAKER_03: His parents' marriage had broken up while his father was serving in the army in Hong Kong.
• 1:04:57
  SPEAKER_03: Since then, Colin had always assumed that his father was dead.
• 1:05:01
  SPEAKER_03: He wasn't dead.
• 1:05:02
  SPEAKER_03: In fact, in recent years he had been living just a few blocks from his son without realizing it.
• 1:05:07
  SPEAKER_03: It's a good thing they found each other when they did because Colin was about to move away.
• 1:05:13
  SPEAKER_03: The blood just drained out of me when he said, I'm your son, Barry Bagshaw told the BBC I didn't recognize him.
• 1:05:22
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 1:05:22
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine you get in a taxi and it's your dad driving it?
• 1:05:28
  SPEAKER_03: Did he still have to pay?
• 1:05:30
  SPEAKER_02: I would think not.
• 1:05:32
  SPEAKER_02: I would think not.
• 1:05:34
  SPEAKER_02: No, that's a really cool story.
• 1:05:36
  SPEAKER_02: That's a that's a reuniting story.
• 1:05:39
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that is, that's a good one.
• 1:05:40
  SPEAKER_03: And I've got an another in interesting one here.
• 1:05:43
  SPEAKER_03: And uh I'm not gonna tell you what it's about.
• 1:05:46
  SPEAKER_03: You'll just when it's at the end, you'll say, oh wow.
• 1:05:49
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, oh wow.
• 1:05:50
  SPEAKER_03: So you have to say, oh wow.
• 1:05:51
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 1:05:51
  SPEAKER_02: Oh wow.
• 1:05:55
  SPEAKER_03: This was a piece of paper found in a box of old books in Shelbyville, Kentucky.
• 1:06:00
  SPEAKER_03: Kentucky.
• 1:06:00
  SPEAKER_02: Shelbyville.
• 1:06:01
  SPEAKER_03: Shelbyville.
• 1:06:02
  SPEAKER_03: Homeowners Tommy and Cherry Settle found the date book while looking through boxes in their basement.
• 1:06:10
  SPEAKER_03: Inside the date book, they found a recipe for fried chicken.
• 1:06:13
  SPEAKER_03: One that called for 11 herbs and spices.
• 1:06:17
  SPEAKER_03: A number that immediately clicked with the Settles because their home was once owned by Kentucky fried chicken founder Colonel Harlan Sanders.
• 1:06:26
  SPEAKER_03: No way.
• 1:06:26
  SPEAKER_03: Yes way, they did.
• 1:06:28
  SPEAKER_03: The Settles believed the recipe may be a copy of Colonel Sanders' original recipe, which is a highly guarded secret.
• 1:06:36
  SPEAKER_03: His finger looking good.
• 1:06:37
  SPEAKER_03: And the foundation upon which the$20 billion fast food chain is built.
• 1:06:42
  SPEAKER_03: Only a handful of KFC employees know the recipe, and each of them is sworn to secrecy.
• 1:06:50
  SPEAKER_03: When the company subcontracts out the recipe to other manufacturers, they always use at least two companies so that no one else knows the complete recipe.
• 1:06:59
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 1:07:00
  SPEAKER_03: So is the Settles find the genuine article?
• 1:07:03
  SPEAKER_03: The Settles think so because when they asked KFC about it, the chain filed a lawsuit to force them to hand the recipe over.
• 1:07:10
  SPEAKER_03: They didn't say anything, Cherry Settle says.
• 1:07:13
  SPEAKER_03: They just sent this court document.
• 1:07:15
  SPEAKER_03: Estimated value, priceless.
• 1:07:18
  SPEAKER_03: If the recipe ever gets out, KFC is powerless to stop anyone else from using it.
• 1:07:24
  SPEAKER_03: Uh oh.
• 1:07:26
  SPEAKER_03: Can you imagine?
• 1:07:29
  SPEAKER_02: That's crazy.
• 1:07:31
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 1:07:32
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 1:07:33
  SPEAKER_02: And the fact they protected it or whatnot.
• 1:07:36
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, they keep that they kept it and didn't publicize it.
• 1:07:38
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 1:07:39
  SPEAKER_03: They could have made money from it by selling it to people, but Oh, I found one more here that I've got.
• 1:07:46
  SPEAKER_03: This is called Lost and Found.
• 1:07:48
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, you found it.
• 1:07:49
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I I didn't find it.
• 1:07:51
  SPEAKER_03: I wish I had, but in 1999, Katie Smith of Harrow, England, lost the ring, which was valued at$45.
• 1:08:04
  SPEAKER_03: A golden sapphire ring.
• 1:08:06
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 1:08:06
  SPEAKER_03: Somewhere in her apartment.
• 1:08:08
  SPEAKER_03: She looked for it and gave it up for lost when she couldn't find it.
• 1:08:12
  SPEAKER_03: Then in September of 99, she and her boyfriend Dave Gould went on a 10,000 mile trip around the world.
• 1:08:22
  SPEAKER_03: They hiked along the banks of the Nile.
• 1:08:25
  SPEAKER_03: They hiked across a desert.
• 1:08:27
  SPEAKER_03: They hiked up a mountain in Costa Rica.
• 1:08:30
  SPEAKER_03: Then they went back home to England.
• 1:08:32
  SPEAKER_03: While Dave was cleaning off the mud that had accumulated during the trip, he found the ring.
• 1:08:38
  unknown: What?
• 1:08:39
  SPEAKER_03: Stuck to the sole of his hiking shoe.
• 1:08:42
  SPEAKER_03: He walked all around the world with ring.
• 1:08:50
  SPEAKER_03: It's a miracle to stay in one piece after the pounding it took.
• 1:08:53
  SPEAKER_03: I never thought I'd see it again.
• 1:08:55
  SPEAKER_03: Isn't that an incredible story?
• 1:08:58
  SPEAKER_02: Man, that was more than a$60 ring.
• 1:09:02
  SPEAKER_02: That's crazy.
• 1:09:02
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, isn't it?
• 1:09:04
  SPEAKER_02: That's that's an incredible story.
• 1:09:06
  SPEAKER_02: That's really cool.
• 1:09:07
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it is.
• 1:09:09
