- 0:49Speaker 1: recording this before we actually know if we want or not,
- 0:52Speaker 1: so I know this episode comes out a week after
- 0:55Speaker 1: the gallop, but as of right now, we still don't
- 0:57Speaker 1: know if we want.
- 0:58Speaker 2: Yes, so we do both. So let's practice. So the
- 1:02Speaker 2: winner is not notable nostalgia, what do we do boom?

- 1:30Speaker 2: So we are here today, listener, We are here today
- 1:33Speaker 2: to do some breaking news, so notable news. That's nostalgic. Yeah, Andy,
- 1:38Speaker 2: what do you got for us today?
- 1:39Speaker 1: So there's been I don't know if you've heard about this,
- 1:42Speaker 1: but you're telling me that recently you went blueberry picking.
- 1:45Speaker 1: There's been like some kind of crazy thing going on
- 1:48Speaker 1: where there's been multiple blueberry trucks overturning on the highway.
- 1:53Speaker 1: And I love it because every single news place it
- 1:57Speaker 1: says there's a traffic jam.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Oh that's awesome.
- 2:02Speaker 1: So his driver was charged after tractor trailer filled with
- 2:05Speaker 1: blueberries overturns on I ninety five in Johnson County. So
- 2:10Speaker 1: that's in North Carolina, and he's facing several charges. I
- 2:13Speaker 1: don't know if he was drinking or what, but I
- 2:15Speaker 1: guess that backed up the traffic for a long time.
- 2:20Speaker 1: He collided with a guardrail, the truck overturned, and blueberries
- 2:23Speaker 1: went everywhere. That makes sense of it. That was the
- 2:28Speaker 1: only one, right But in Canada, right around the same time,
- 2:33Speaker 1: blueberry spill causes traffic jam and mission a torrent A
- 2:37Speaker 1: blueberry spilled off a pickup in Mission last week, landing
- 2:40Speaker 1: the driver a ticket.
- 2:42Speaker 2: Mission.
- 2:43Speaker 1: The RCMP, which is like the something Canada Royal Canada
- 2:47Speaker 1: Mounted Police I think, said it was a juicy incident
- 2:51Speaker 1: during the afternoon rush hour on June twenty ninth, when
- 2:54Speaker 1: a white Ford pickup carrying crates of freshly picked blueberry
- 2:57Speaker 1: stopped at the intersection and when the track when the
- 3:01Speaker 1: and then the truck pulled over, some of the crates
- 3:03Speaker 1: tumbled out of the back of the truck and crashed
- 3:04Speaker 1: into the roadway, spilling thousands of berries onto the road,
- 3:07Speaker 1: causing a literal traffic jam. So the Mounties use shovels
- 3:12Speaker 1: to clean up the sticky mess. As motorists watched the
- 3:15Speaker 1: clean up, it just like, I mean, how I mean,
- 3:20Speaker 1: do you think people really stopped? And I was like, oh,
- 3:21Speaker 1: look there, I mean how long could you actually watch that?
- 3:25Speaker 2: I would pull over?
- 3:26Speaker 1: You're like, wow, you picking up blueberries now? Uh? And
- 3:30Speaker 1: then one of the police said it's a lesson for everyone,
- 3:34Speaker 1: trying to say five minutes costs everyone an hour. So
- 3:37Speaker 1: if you're hauling blueberries, I guess, just pull over correctly
- 3:41Speaker 1: and then start slow, like I guess this.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Is why more people need to go to the Blueberry
- 3:47Speaker 2: and like do you picks? Yeah, because then we wouldn't
- 3:49Speaker 2: have these massive trucks going to like the safe Ways
- 3:52Speaker 2: or the Freddy's or the Crokers or whatever. Yeah, and
- 3:54Speaker 2: then did anybody get hurt during these No?
- 3:57Speaker 1: But if you look up Blueberry crash, I guess like
- 4:00Speaker 1: certainly some child died on a street called Blueberry because
- 4:03Speaker 1: of a crash.
- 4:04Speaker 2: And I was like, that's really so sad. So he
- 4:06Speaker 2: died via blueberries.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Yeah in a way.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Yeah, it was kind of like sweet in a way
- 4:11Speaker 2: because he died the doing what he loved, dressing up
- 4:15Speaker 2: as cause place murfs. But yeah, that is why I
- 4:21Speaker 2: love news stories that use like ponds or like in
- 4:24Speaker 2: the windows or like bird playing. I think that's so fabulous.
- 4:27Speaker 1: But these are within like a week apart, which is weird.
- 4:30Speaker 1: And North Carolina one Canada, So I do feel like whatever,
- 4:33Speaker 1: like there's some kind of conspiracy going on with blueberries
- 4:36Speaker 1: and I for want him for it.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Yeah, we need to get our notable nostalgia investigative crew
- 4:41Speaker 2: on this.
- 4:42Speaker 1: Yes, we'll just start going to random roads and just
- 4:45Speaker 1: waiting for the blueberry thing, just waiting for the blueberries
- 4:48Speaker 1: to come down.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Yeah, those raspberries keep driving.
- 4:52Speaker 1: This is this is blueberry country boy.
- 4:55Speaker 2: No blueberry season has been a hit for me. And
- 4:57Speaker 2: this is kind of like a good seguay to my
- 5:00Speaker 2: news story actually, so it also vaguely connects to blueberries.
- 5:06Speaker 2: So I recently, yeah, got into like my blue blueberry
- 5:09Speaker 2: picking an era. I've been twice this season, and the
- 5:13Speaker 2: first time I went was right after an incident that happened.
- 5:17Speaker 2: So I've I already talked to you about this, Andy,
- 5:19Speaker 2: but I want the listener to like, it's like a
- 5:21Speaker 2: PSA for notable nostalgia. So I'm also in my going
- 5:25Speaker 2: to waterfalls era. So I went on a high like
- 5:29Speaker 2: two and a half miles, not two and a half
- 5:31Speaker 2: a month, two and a half hours about it doesn't
- 5:34Speaker 2: matter how long hour and a half anyways, and was
- 5:37Speaker 2: about three minutes from there. I brought Gus and me,
- 5:40Speaker 2: you know, And about two minutes before we got there,
- 5:43Speaker 2: I was like, oh, like, I have to pee. I
- 5:45Speaker 2: don't want to risk pein in front of people, so
- 5:48Speaker 2: I'm gonna pull over inside the highway and urinate. So
- 5:51Speaker 2: I did, and I was urinating, and all of a sudden,
- 5:53Speaker 2: I was like, ah, I had this like stimulation in
- 5:56Speaker 2: my lower gut and I literally just started crapping my pants.
- 6:01Speaker 1: No.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Yeah, so I was wearing underwear boxer breefs and also
- 6:08Speaker 2: these shorts that had like compression shorts, so I was
- 6:10Speaker 2: like three layers and I was like, okay, I'm good.
- 6:13Speaker 2: So I started too this is so gross, but like, listener,
- 6:17Speaker 2: take note, I started just robing and I was like, oh,
- 6:21Speaker 2: I can just toss my underwear because it's just a
- 6:22Speaker 2: little sharp situation. It's fine. But then as I was
- 6:27Speaker 2: like the bottom half of me was naked, I started
- 6:30Speaker 2: diarrhea and more. But the night before, it was fourth
- 6:35Speaker 2: of July, I went to like a Mexican cookout with
- 6:37Speaker 2: Jeremy's family. So I ate a lot of spicy food,
- 6:40Speaker 2: a lot of spicy alcohol like margaritis and shit and
- 6:43Speaker 2: so you know, and so yeah, so I'm almost side
- 6:48Speaker 2: of the road diarrhye. I'm like, okay, I'm not going
- 6:50Speaker 2: to be able to continue this journey. So I grabbed
- 6:53Speaker 2: the blanket that I brought for Gus to cover up with,
- 6:56Speaker 2: and I was like wrapping myself around and like Gus
- 6:59Speaker 2: is just in the past interestat like watching me like
- 7:01Speaker 2: we're making eye contact.
- 7:02Speaker 1: And guess is judging you?
- 7:04Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you was judging, Like what the fuck
- 7:07Speaker 2: are you doing? And then also like that smells amazing
- 7:09Speaker 2: because my dog is disgusting. So I wrap a blanket
- 7:12Speaker 2: around my body and I am about to get into
- 7:15Speaker 2: my side of the car and I start diarrheing more
- 7:17Speaker 2: and I'm standing up like straight. So it was like
- 7:20Speaker 2: that time that you opened a champagne bottle and you
- 7:22Speaker 2: put your thumb over it.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Yeah, that's I opened a champagne bottle and it started
- 7:26Speaker 1: going crazy. And every time I've seen a video online,
- 7:29Speaker 1: I'm like, just stick your finger in there. I don't
- 7:30Speaker 1: know what the issue is. Yeah, so I tried that,
- 7:32Speaker 1: and it makes it so much worse. It was It's
- 7:35Speaker 1: on the ceiling, it was in the it was everywhere.
- 7:36Speaker 1: It was fucking everywhere.
- 7:38Speaker 2: And that's how this was because I was standing up straight,
- 7:40Speaker 2: so like my butt cheets close together worked as the thumb.
- 7:43Speaker 1: Do you think if you stopped or do you think
- 7:47Speaker 1: it want to crazier?
- 7:49Speaker 2: I think it would have started coming out of my
- 7:50Speaker 2: mouth and my ears and my eye, my eyes on it.
- 7:54Speaker 2: But it was so disgusting and I at that point,
- 7:56Speaker 2: I'm diarrhene with the blanket around me. So I'm like, oh, fucked.
- 8:00Speaker 2: So i take the blanket off and I run across
- 8:03Speaker 2: to the other side of my car, around my car,
- 8:06Speaker 2: and I'm at this point, I'm just naked. Yeah, So
- 8:09Speaker 2: I sid the freeway and you're like not too far
- 8:11Speaker 2: away from like Detroit, like sister, like a lot of tourists,
- 8:14Speaker 2: like summer tourists areas, so like people are seeing this.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Oh so cars were driving by they were yeah.
- 8:20Speaker 2: So anyway, so that's why I'm like, Okay, I just
- 8:22Speaker 2: wipe myself down with as much as I can. And
- 8:23Speaker 2: the whole way home is hour and a half. There
- 8:26Speaker 2: was no signal service for a lot of it. So
- 8:28Speaker 2: I'm sitting there in silence, just like reaking of shit,
- 8:32Speaker 2: and then Dust is like trying to get at me
- 8:34Speaker 2: because he wants to like lick it up. So it
- 8:37Speaker 2: was so fucking awkward. And then afterwards I was like,
- 8:39Speaker 2: I'm gonna walk. I called Jeremy. I was like, Jeremy,
- 8:41Speaker 2: I'm this is what happened, and he was like oh.
- 8:44Speaker 2: And then I go home and like pressure wash myself
- 8:48Speaker 2: and then I'm like I can't make this day. Bad.
- 8:51Speaker 2: So I went leaberry picking and it was just and
- 8:54Speaker 2: then they were like, oh, do you want some lavender?
- 8:56Speaker 2: And I was like fuck him because I have like

- 9:24Speaker 2: like a bortex that like I'm gonna just shot myself
- 9:26Speaker 2: at this point, so I was really nervous. And then awkwardly,
- 9:30Speaker 2: I saw my underwhere my shorts in the middle of
- 9:32Speaker 2: the road, so like an animal got to it. And
- 9:34Speaker 2: I know that poopy makes you like uncomfortable, Andy, but
