Speaker 1: It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
0:30
Speaker 1: with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley, along with
0:34
Speaker 1: Trey Trenholm and Jerry Caldwell. Today is Fred Day anywhere. Yeah,
0:43
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Welcome inside the treehouse. Let's play. You've
0:50
Speaker 1: probably noticed that our good buddy Raj Sharma has not
0:56
Speaker 1: been in the treehouse this week, which is a good
0:59
Speaker 1: thing because apparently he's got the flu. And I don't
1:03
Speaker 1: want the flu anywhere in this room, anywhere in this
1:06
Speaker 1: tree house, anywhere near me. I don't want it near you, Trey,
1:09
Speaker 1: don't want it near you, Jerry, because we talked about
1:13
Speaker 1: the flu a couple of times this week. But again
1:16
Speaker 1: I just want to point out that it's terrible. It sucks.
1:19
Speaker 1: It sounds like one of the worst imaginable illnesses you
1:24
Speaker 1: can get, you know, save for this actually deadly on
1:28
Speaker 1: a regular basis, the flu candy. But you know what
1:30
Speaker 1: I mean. But like Trey, you said you had it
1:34
Speaker 1: last year and it was so bad that you made
1:35
Speaker 1: sure to get a flu shot this year. Yeah, I've again,
1:42
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever had the flu, and I
1:44
Speaker 1: would consider it a massive success if I can make
1:47
Speaker 1: it through the end of my days having never experienced it. Jerry,
1:54
Speaker 1: have you ever had it?
1:55
Speaker 2: Oh?
1:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've had it probably four times, oh man, And
1:59
Speaker 3: it is absolutely one of the worst. The last time
2:03
Speaker 3: I had it, I've never felt like I was closer
2:07
Speaker 3: to death.
2:08
Speaker 2: Really, it was worse than COVID.
2:15
Speaker 1: Trey looks super either deep in thought or inquisitive.
2:19
Speaker 4: Well, hey, I've never had COVID, so I can't. I
2:21
Speaker 4: have no comparison. The thing is always that gets me
2:23
Speaker 4: with the flu is typically it's the high fever, and
2:28
Speaker 4: it's the body aches. It's just, yes, absolutely feel like
2:32
Speaker 4: you've been worked over with a baseball bat.
2:36
Speaker 2: You cannot get comfortable. You just you can't. It hurts
2:41
Speaker 2: to light down, it hurts to sit up, makes you
2:43
Speaker 2: dizzy to sit up.
2:46
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you usually have a high fever until you're
2:48
Speaker 4: sweating than the chills and your body and sweats, chills,
2:51
Speaker 4: body aches are the three things that just absolutely suck
2:55
Speaker 4: ass with the flumm.
2:58
Speaker 1: Well, if you get it, or if you get some
3:01
Speaker 1: other type of illness. There's a lady from Australia who
3:05
Speaker 1: claims to have a magical elixir in which to get
3:12
Speaker 1: rid of the illness. This is called a flu bomb.
3:18
Speaker 1: So what is it? What is a flu bomb? And
3:21
Speaker 1: most importantly does it work? There's a seven ingredient mixture
3:27
Speaker 1: that it's Australian creator promises, promises that drinking it daily
3:34
Speaker 1: can shorten illnesses from the flu, a cold, a sinus infection,
3:39
Speaker 1: or just about any respiratory illness. You want to know
3:44
Speaker 1: what's in it?
3:46
Speaker 4: Yes? Who is the woman? Say?
3:50
Speaker 1: I'm trying to see her name is hang on, hang on,
3:55
Speaker 1: hang on, I'm finding it. There's her photo. Jesus Christ,
3:59
Speaker 1: not need a drink?
4:02
Speaker 4: Older gray haired lady.
4:04
Speaker 1: Yes, older gray haired lady. Her name is Barbara O'Neill.
4:08
Speaker 1: She is an brilliant alternative health care advocate.
4:11
Speaker 4: And she's as a huge following for people that are
4:16
Speaker 4: into like homeopathic stuff. She claims, I think like she
4:24
Speaker 4: even claims she like she's older than she looks.
4:28
Speaker 1: Really yeah, that must be really really an old Yeah.
4:38
Speaker 1: Her name is Barbara O'Neill, and her flu bomb seven
4:42
Speaker 1: ingredient recipe, she says, can eradicate illness, including the flu
4:49
Speaker 1: ingredients of her homemade flu remedy are garlic. As much
4:56
Speaker 1: as you can as much as you can stand followed
5:00
Speaker 1: eucalyptus oil for clearing airways, ginger and honey, which are
5:06
Speaker 1: both natural expectorants. As much cayenne pepper as one can
5:11
Speaker 1: handle as the capsaican in pepper has been found to
5:14
Speaker 1: relieve congestion and sneezing, followed by lemon juice and hot water.
5:20
Speaker 1: She says, if you drink that three times per day
5:24
Speaker 1: when your symptoms set in, and often after two or
5:28
Speaker 1: three days, that's enough rid you of the flu.
5:34
Speaker 2: When you have the flu, you will try anything.
5:37
Speaker 1: It sounds like it from what you were describing. Trey,
5:40
Speaker 1: you said, having the flu is like being worked over
5:42
Speaker 1: with a bat. Jerry you said the last time you
5:45
Speaker 1: had it, you welcome to death. So if a seven
5:50
Speaker 1: ingredient concoction might alleviate some of those symptoms, line them up,
5:55
Speaker 1: baby like. I don't know if they if they need
5:58
Speaker 1: to be shots of this liquid or if it needs
6:00
Speaker 1: to be you know, gulped out of a Stanley cup
6:04
Speaker 1: at soccer practice from a soccer mom. I'll do it, yeah,
6:09
Speaker 1: I mean, go ahead.
6:11
Speaker 4: A lot of those ingredients are what you find in
6:13
Speaker 4: various things. I mean, it's nothing, right, groundbreaking, really.
6:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, she's not telling you to, you know,
6:20
Speaker 1: drink pink thinner or you know, boil a cow patty yeah,
6:25
Speaker 1: or poor bleach in your ass or anything like that.
6:28
Speaker 1: It's it's normal stuff that you know, you just kind
6:30
Speaker 1: of you just put it all together. This actually sounds
6:32
Speaker 1: a lot like one of those mixtures that people would
6:36
Speaker 1: do to detox or to go through a fast, which
6:43
Speaker 1: I mean, if it works, I mean right, it definitely
6:47
Speaker 1: doesn't sound like an appetizing beveridge. I mean, seriously, think
6:52
Speaker 1: about it. Here are the ingredients again, just think about
6:54
Speaker 1: this now. Imagine you go to the grocery store, not
6:57
Speaker 1: HB because CHIB wouldn't carry this stuff. You go to
6:59
Speaker 1: a really shady grocery store and a weird part of town,
7:04
Speaker 1: maybe the other side of the train tracks, and there's
7:05
Speaker 1: someone with a free sample display, and they want you
7:09
Speaker 1: to try some of this amazing new drink. And the
7:11
Speaker 1: ingredients are garlic, eucalyptus oil, ginger, honey, cayenne, pepper, lemon, juice,
7:17
Speaker 1: and hot water. If anything, you'll just vomit up the illness.
7:25
Speaker 2: I love all of those things.
7:26
Speaker 3: But if you were to subtract the garlic, that sounds
7:29
Speaker 3: like a fancy hot toddy, But you put that garlic
7:32
Speaker 3: juice in there.
7:34
Speaker 4: Yeah.
7:34
Speaker 1: I think to me, it's the garlic juice in the
7:36
Speaker 1: eucalyptus oil that are the the party ruiners because ginger
7:43
Speaker 1: and honey that works. The hot pepper with a cap safe,
7:46
Speaker 1: and the lemon juice and the hot water.
7:48
Speaker 4: Thank you're right.
7:49
Speaker 1: That kind of sounds like just a flavorful, hot tiddy
7:51
Speaker 1: kind of situation. But yeah, that garlic in the eucalyptus oil,
7:55
Speaker 1: that'll that'll change your mood real fast.
7:58
Speaker 4: Yeah, all the garlic you can handle it, I think, Yeah, that's.
8:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not just all the garlic you can handle,
8:06
Speaker 1: but it's all the garlic that people around you can handle.
8:09
Speaker 4: Yeah.
8:10
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm on a high protein diet right now,
8:12
Speaker 1: and I don't think you guys want to be in
8:14
Speaker 1: here with me any longer than you have to.
8:16
Speaker 4: Be, especially not after your your your pegging adventures.
8:23
Speaker 1: That's out of context, tray that.
8:29
Speaker 5: Damn it.
8:30
Speaker 6: You You're in the visit us online a treehouseonair dot com.
8:41
Speaker 1: That is out of context, and I don't have time
8:43
Speaker 1: to put it in context. Time now to talk to
8:50
Speaker 1: Daniel Cook from cook df W Roofing and restoration for
8:53
Speaker 1: your free roof inspection and to get yourself on the
8:55
Speaker 1: very important cook list eight three three cook df W
8:59
Speaker 1: or the website cookdfw dot com. It's that time of season, Daniel,
9:03
Speaker 1: and that season is of course people on their roofs
9:06
Speaker 1: decorating for the holidays. Many people already have decorated, which
9:09
Speaker 1: means they're going to take them down soon. And is
9:12
Speaker 1: that when they're going to discover that maybe they did
9:14
Speaker 1: little damage to their roof when they put up Santa
9:17
Speaker 1: Claus and his reindeer man.
9:19
Speaker 4: It is that time of the year.
9:20
Speaker 5: Merry Christmas to you and everybody listening. And yes, sir,
9:24
Speaker 5: we see a lot of roof damage, especially around the
9:29
Speaker 5: edges of the people's homes. A lot of people will
9:32
Speaker 5: skirt around the sides because they get scared about going
9:35
Speaker 5: too far up and they kind of hold themselves up
9:38
Speaker 5: around the edge as they're plugging the lights around, or
9:42
Speaker 5: they'll hold the ladder against the side of the roof
9:44
Speaker 5: and they'll damage the shingles all the way around the edges.
9:47
Speaker 5: So there's a lot of things that happen to shingles,
9:49
Speaker 5: and it may not damage it right away enough to leak,
9:52
Speaker 5: but it's going to potentially.
9:53
Speaker 4: Put it there.
9:54
Speaker 5: So we always suggest having a roof checked out once
9:57
Speaker 5: a year, at least obviously for all the weather you have,
10:00
Speaker 5: but especially if you know you've had people on top
10:02
Speaker 5: of your roof hanging lights or decorations, or you know
10:05
Speaker 5: you see some shingles that are starting to fold on
10:07
Speaker 5: the corner, so let us come out. Let's do an inspection.
10:10
Speaker 5: May need some minor repairs, but it can save you
10:12
Speaker 5: potentially thousands of dollars later.

10:59
Speaker 1: and Jerry side the Treehouse. On a day January tenth,
11:03
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, something huge is happening this weekend, Tray,
11:09
Speaker 1: you said the season finale of the first season of
11:13
Speaker 1: land Man is on Sunday.
11:15
Speaker 4: Yes, fantastic show.
11:17
Speaker 1: Jerry. I'm not sure if you heard this the other day,
11:19
Speaker 1: but Trey had told me, and I don't want to
11:23
Speaker 1: quote you directly, but I'm just going to paraphrase, but
11:25
Speaker 1: Trey says, land Man is the best show on television
11:28
Speaker 1: right now.
11:30
Speaker 4: Absolutely.
11:32
Speaker 1: Have you seen any of it, Jerry, not a bit. Okay,
11:35
Speaker 1: I have not seen an episode yet, but because of
11:37
Speaker 1: Trey's insistence and his love of land Man, We're going
11:42
Speaker 1: to watch it tonight. We're going to watch our first
11:45
Speaker 1: episode of land Man. We're going to take it all in.
11:49
Speaker 1: So I did a little research on it just to
11:51
Speaker 1: make sure I could, you know, because I had to
11:53
Speaker 1: tell Terror what it is. I can't just tell her, well,
11:56
Speaker 1: Trey loves it, because her response is, well, Trey hates
12:00
Speaker 1: hates Elf, and if he hates Elf, then that messes
12:02
Speaker 1: with his uh credibility. Elf is a horrible movie, not
12:07
Speaker 1: according to my wife, So you know. So I looked
12:12
Speaker 1: it up Landman. It's from the creator of Yellowstone. This
12:16
Speaker 1: is his new show and uh it stars Billy Bob Thornton,
12:22
Speaker 1: uh and it chronicles the Tell me if this sounds accurate, Tray,
12:26
Speaker 1: what I looked up Landman stars Billy Bob Thornton and
12:29
Speaker 1: chronicles the gritty tale of the dangerous oil business in
12:31
Speaker 1: the boomtowns of West Texas.
12:35
Speaker 4: Yeah. That's I mean, that's pretty accurate. It's it's just
12:43
Speaker 4: it's a great show. It has a flare of you know,
12:47
Speaker 4: uh Dallas Dynasty type drama.
12:53
Speaker 8: Uh.
12:54
Speaker 4: But but it also it is funny as hell when
12:57
Speaker 4: he wrote this. When Taylor Sheridan wrote this, he had
13:00
Speaker 4: to have had Billy Bob Thornton in mind, because the
13:03
Speaker 4: lines Billy Bob Thornton has are just unbelievably good and
13:08
Speaker 4: and just funny. I mean, watched the first episode and
13:14
Speaker 4: you will. If you don't like it, then then you know,
13:19
Speaker 4: I don't even know who you are. But yeah, it's
13:23
Speaker 4: it's just a it's a fantastic show. I have not
13:26
Speaker 4: I have not enjoyed a show like this in years.
13:29
Speaker 2: Wow.
13:30
Speaker 1: Okay, that's that is definitely high praise. And it got
13:32
Speaker 1: a lot of attention this week because I guess it
13:37
Speaker 1: was a last week's episode or a previous episode. Had
13:42
Speaker 1: one hell of a cameo in it, Yes, Camp, and
13:46
Speaker 1: that cameo was by none other than the owner and
13:50
Speaker 1: general manager of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry.
13:53
Speaker 4: Jones and clearly and I'm Jerry, and this isn't saying
14:02
Speaker 4: much because it's it's clearly a better actor than he
14:05
Speaker 4: is a general manager.
14:10
Speaker 1: Well, let's find out. Because I've not seen this, Trey.
14:13
Speaker 1: You sent this, and I've waited to watch it until
14:17
Speaker 1: live here on the show. So I just want to
14:18
Speaker 1: watch this. This is from I'll Landman.
14:22
Speaker 4: I'll give a little bit of a setup for this.
14:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, please.
14:25
Speaker 4: John Hamm is the billionaire oil guy that everyone works for.
14:29
Speaker 4: He is in the hospital after his fourth heart attack
14:32
Speaker 4: because it's all work. He's neglecting his family everything else,
14:35
Speaker 4: obviously oil Man Jerry oil Man. So Jerry is basically
14:39
Speaker 4: telling a story about why he's done the things he's done.
14:44
Speaker 4: And there you go.
14:48
Speaker 8: And So when I got to Calmbo, was I got
14:50
Speaker 8: it so that we could all work together. I thought
14:55
Speaker 8: I was doing it for them, But the one that
14:59
Speaker 8: got the most out of it it was me. I
15:04
Speaker 8: just know it's not gonna be this time. But you're
15:06
Speaker 8: gonna be sitting here sometime in the future, laying here
15:08
Speaker 8: sometime in the future, and this room's gonna be full
15:13
Speaker 8: of your business associates and the people you worked with
15:15
Speaker 8: all your life, and more than likely your children and
15:19
Speaker 8: family gonna be there because they are your children and
15:22
Speaker 8: your family. But you could have them there because they're
15:27
Speaker 8: the people you spent your life with, you worked with,
15:29
Speaker 8: you fell down with, you got up with, just Thanksgiving, Christmas.
15:39
Speaker 8: That's who you want to be with.
15:43
Speaker 2: Wow, Holy crap.
15:45
Speaker 4: And then.
15:48
Speaker 1: And then I guess he walked off down the hallway
15:50
Speaker 1: to find his measure and tape.
15:55
Speaker 4: Now he's in West Texas. He's looking for a glory whole.
16:02
Speaker 4: You know what?
16:03
Speaker 1: That actually makes sense. Jerry Jones acting was so good
16:05
Speaker 1: in Landman that Paramount has already announced a spin off
16:08
Speaker 1: show called Gloryhole. I'd watch that.
16:15

Speaker 1: on Air to get tree House Plus. I gotta admit
17:03
Speaker 1: I'm still kind of reeling from that clip of Jerry
17:06
Speaker 1: Jones on land Man. That was I hate, I don't
17:11
Speaker 1: like giving Jerry Jones credit very much, but he was
17:15
Speaker 1: looking good.
17:16
Speaker 2: No, that was really good. That made me feel things.
17:20
Speaker 1: And usually when usually when Jerry Jones is making me
17:22
Speaker 1: feel things, just because I'm really mad.
17:25
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, that was And that was just a snippet
17:28
Speaker 4: his scenes probably two and a half three minutes and uh,
17:31
Speaker 4: I mean, and he's damn good.
17:33
Speaker 1: And uh, he's in a room. He's in a room
17:37
Speaker 1: in that scene, in a hospital room with two very
17:41
Speaker 1: very fine actors and John Hamm and Billy Bob Thornton.
17:45
Speaker 1: Billy Bob Thornton, I believe. Is he an Academy Award winner?
17:49
Speaker 2: Uh, pretty much he's not.
17:51
Speaker 1: I think he was at least nominated in Monsters Ball,
17:54
Speaker 1: because isn't that what halle Berry didn't she win for
17:57
Speaker 1: Monsters Ball. I wasn't necessarily sure if that was because
18:00
Speaker 1: her acting was so good or because she had to
18:03
Speaker 1: have a sex scene with Billy Bob Thornton. But whatever
18:06
Speaker 1: the case, and I think John Hamm has won an
18:08
Speaker 1: Emmy from Mad Men. Whatever the case is. In that room,
18:11
Speaker 1: you got Jerry Jones, Billy Bob Thornton, John Hamm. Those
18:15
Speaker 1: are two outstanding actors.
18:16
Speaker 4: Yeah he didn't. Did Billy Bob win for sling Blade?
18:20
Speaker 8: Uh?
18:21
Speaker 2: A word for best rating?
18:24
Speaker 1: Well, he's got one. So it's like, it's not like
18:28
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones is in there with a bunch of you know,
18:31
Speaker 1: day players. He's in there with two bona fide successful
18:35
Speaker 1: marquee actors. And not only does he hold his own,
18:38
Speaker 1: he actually owns the room.
18:41
Speaker 2: That was really, really good.
18:43
Speaker 1: All right, I'm convinced. We'll watch it tonight, Trey.
18:46
Speaker 4: Listen when you get I believe it's in the first episode.
18:52
Speaker 4: The scene between Billy Bob and his daughter girl that
18:58
Speaker 4: plays his daughter on TV. That scene alone is one
19:01
Speaker 4: of the just funniest scenes and most awkward funny scenes.
19:09
Speaker 1: You'll you'll you'll like it. When I get there, I'll
19:13
Speaker 1: let you know. I'll shoot you text or something. All right.
19:16
Speaker 1: So let's go from something completely touching and I don't know,
19:22
Speaker 1: noteworthy to something that's noteworthy in its own right, although
19:27
Speaker 1: on the complete opposite end of the spectrum. Okay, fart
19:32
Speaker 1: experts have found gas can leak out of your mouth
19:35
Speaker 1: if you hold it in for too long.
19:40
Speaker 2: Oh yes, and the cult burp.
19:44
Speaker 1: Ah, it's not it's not quite. It's different. It's because
19:47
Speaker 1: it comes from a different place. Fart experts find that
19:53
Speaker 1: gas can leak out of your mouth if you hold
19:55
Speaker 1: it in for too long.
19:56
Speaker 10: Let's puick.
19:57
Speaker 1: You want to pick apart this dingle berry of stupid?
20:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would love to. And starting off of how
20:05
Speaker 4: does one get designated a fart expert?
20:09
Speaker 1: That's a great question. I've been thinking about that ever
20:13
Speaker 1: since I saw this story, Like was that something like
20:17
Speaker 1: were you in school one day and career day happened
20:20
Speaker 1: and in walked in the fart expert and you said
20:23
Speaker 1: that I want to be that someday. According to Claire Collins,
20:29
Speaker 1: who is a nutrition and dietetics professor at the University
20:34
Speaker 1: of Newcastle, she says holding in a fart might not
20:39
Speaker 1: be a good idea. She explains that trapped intestinal gas
20:44
Speaker 1: can reabsorb into your bloodstream, eventually escaping through your breath,
20:51
Speaker 1: or it could lead to an uncontrollable release later, something
20:55
Speaker 1: we all know as a surprise fart or a fart shocker.
21:00
Speaker 1: She goes on to say that prolonged gas retention might
21:03
Speaker 1: even contribute to abdominal discomfort or potential gut issues, though
21:08
Speaker 1: research remains unclear on long term effects, so hint, hint, researchers,
21:14
Speaker 1: there's an opportunity here for a long term study on
21:16
Speaker 1: the effects of holding in farts. And I have to
21:20
Speaker 1: admit I wouldn't mind being a fly on the wall
21:22
Speaker 1: for that pitch to get that grant money.
21:25
Speaker 4: I'd just like to say that I think this is
21:27
Speaker 4: a sign of of gender equality because I was not
21:32
Speaker 4: expecting that it was going to be a woman who
21:34
Speaker 4: was a fart expert.
21:35
Speaker 1: It's true, young girls everywhere need to know that they
21:39
Speaker 1: too can grow up to become a fartress.
21:42
Speaker 4: But if there was someone who is going to be
21:44
Speaker 4: an expert about holding it in, damn, damn, damn, damn.
21:58
Speaker 1: Well yeah, really, really good on you.
22:04

22:52
Speaker 1: Treehouse today, and uh, it is the first Friday. It's
22:57
Speaker 1: the first Friday show of the new year. And one
23:00
Speaker 1: way in which I like to celebrate things is with
23:03
Speaker 1: a game.
23:03
Speaker 2: So let's do that.
23:04
Speaker 1: It is time right now for believe it or not?
23:12
Speaker 1: Inside the Treehouse, Trey, Jerry, I'm going to read a
23:16
Speaker 1: statement and you have to tell me whether you believe
23:19
Speaker 1: it or not. You guys ready, yep, I am here
23:27
Speaker 1: we go, believe it or not. Smarty's candy was originally
23:37
Speaker 1: created for soldiers in World War One to give them
23:40
Speaker 1: a boost of energy and happiness before charging out of
23:44
Speaker 1: their trenches into no man's land. Believe it or not.
23:49
Speaker 1: Smarty's candy was originally created for soldiers in World War
23:53
Speaker 1: One to give them boost of energy and happiness before
23:56
Speaker 1: charging out of their trenches into no man's land. Jerry,
24:02
Speaker 1: do you believe it or not? I believe it, Trey.
24:08
Speaker 1: Do you believe it or not?
24:13
Speaker 4: You know, that's just just odd enough that I'm gonna
24:17
Speaker 4: go with yes, I believe it all right.
24:21
Speaker 1: You are bulk wrong. You should not have You should
24:24
Speaker 1: not have believed that at all whatsoever. I I made
24:28
Speaker 1: up a good chunk of that story. But there is
24:33
Speaker 1: some truth too, Smarties coming out of World War One.
24:38
Speaker 1: This is the part you can believe. Smarties did come
24:42
Speaker 1: from World War One. They were originally made using repurposed
24:47
Speaker 1: gunpowder pellet machines. Okay. In nineteen forty nine, a man
24:53
Speaker 1: named Edward d. Transformed the machinery of war into an
24:57
Speaker 1: instrument of joy. Inspired by his family's candy making heritage,
25:02
Speaker 1: he swapped munitions for confections, using the machine to compress
25:05
Speaker 1: powdered flavors like cinnamon and clove into the tiny candy pellets.
25:10
Speaker 1: He immigrated from the United Kingdom to the United States,
25:13
Speaker 1: founded C. D Candy in Bloomfield, New Jersey, and over
25:17
Speaker 1: the years, Smarties evolved into the fruity flavors that we
25:21
Speaker 1: know today, like orange, strawberry, grape, cherry, pineapple, and orange cream,
25:25
Speaker 1: and of course those became a staple for Halloween, birthdays,
25:29
Speaker 1: school events, and whatnot. Today, the company produces over thirty
25:35
Speaker 1: billion pellets annually, operating around the clock in factories in
25:39
Speaker 1: both the United States and Canada.
25:43
Speaker 2: Pretty impressive.
25:43
Speaker 1: Edward D's vision turned a symbol of destruction into a
25:46
Speaker 1: worldwide phenomenon, all while remaining a family run business. He
25:51
Speaker 1: passed away in twenty nineteen at the age of ninety five,
25:56
Speaker 1: and his legacy continues to remind us of the power
25:59
Speaker 1: of transformation, proving that even machines of war can bring
26:03
Speaker 1: sweetness to the world. That's pretty impressive to go in
26:08
Speaker 1: a room into a machine of war that was used
26:12
Speaker 1: to make machine gun parts and say I'm gonna turn
26:14
Speaker 1: this into candy. Mm hmmm, I mean that's I mean,
26:19
Speaker 1: if we're being honest, that that right there is some
26:21
Speaker 1: wonka level.
26:23
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's impressive.
26:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, imagine going imagine going into an armory and thinking,
26:32
Speaker 1: you know what, this place needs a chocolate river. So
26:40
Speaker 1: that is that is a big takeaway from today. Smarties
26:44
Speaker 1: did come from World War One and they were made
26:47
Speaker 1: using a machine of war. Uh, that's it really is
26:52
Speaker 1: an amazing thing to to be able to have that
26:55
Speaker 1: type of a vision.
26:58
Speaker 8: Uh.
26:59
Speaker 2: Why does this I'll say this slightly of gunpowder.
27:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think they had the gunpowder flavor necessarily
27:07
Speaker 1: as as a feature. I do wonder though, if the
27:10
Speaker 1: first few that came out of the machine did have
27:12
Speaker 1: a little bit of that taste to it. This smoky's
27:16
Speaker 1: this Smarty is a little smoky for me. But I'll
27:20
Speaker 1: tell you this, I'll never look at a Smarty the
27:22
Speaker 1: same way again. Although now I'm wondering if they can
27:26
Speaker 1: actually make a machine gun shoot candy. Or maybe that's
27:32
Speaker 1: just like the next Banksy painting that we'll find it
27:34
Speaker 1: on alleyway somewhere.
27:41
Speaker 4: What's that you brought up, Banksy? Did you see one
27:45
Speaker 4: of his pieces got auctioned off? This is a couple
27:48
Speaker 4: a month or two ago. Guy paid like six million
27:51
Speaker 4: for it at the auction. After the bidding is done
27:55
Speaker 4: and he won. Banksy had installed a paper shredder at
27:59
Speaker 4: the bottom, and so the painting just drops down and
28:03
Speaker 4: it shreds, so then it's just sitting there in pieces.
28:08
Speaker 4: The guy who bought it was like, oh my god,
28:10
Speaker 4: it's even better than it was before. And they now
28:12
Speaker 4: estimate that it's worth more money shredded. Uh huh, which
28:16
Speaker 4: is because of the backfire to Banksy, who did it
28:18
Speaker 4: just to give you for paintings going for that much.
28:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was expecting the rich guy to be super
28:23
Speaker 1: angry about it, in which case I'd be really happy
28:25
Speaker 1: about that. I love when rich people get screwed.
28:29
Speaker 4: Nope, nope, he got screwed and it made him more
28:32
Speaker 4: money't rich people.

29:34
Speaker 1: inside the Treehouse. It's a big day. It's Friday, so
29:39
Speaker 1: let's celebrate with birthdays. January tenth, twenty twenty Fivekay, it's
29:48
Speaker 1: four birthdays today. Sarah Shahi from Blackadam and Person of
29:56
Speaker 1: Interest is forty five today. And if I remember it correctly,
30:01
Speaker 1: Uless Trinity's own Sarah Shahi forty five today. So if
30:06
Speaker 1: you remember her from the Black Adam movie, which I yeah,
30:11
Speaker 1: I saw it.
30:12
Speaker 4: I went to the theater. I saw it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
30:16
Speaker 4: you've had high hopes for that one. But it's in
30:20
Speaker 4: DC fashion it disappointed.
30:22
Speaker 10: Yeah.
30:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, the D and d C stands for a disappointments
30:25
Speaker 1: appointment yep, yep. It's weird because The Rock is supposedly
30:31
Speaker 1: one of the most bankable movie stars on the planet.
30:34
Speaker 1: He is always near or at the top of celebrities
30:39
Speaker 1: that made the most money for the previous year. But honestly,
30:43
Speaker 1: his movies are real kind of hit her miss and
30:45
Speaker 1: mostly lately it seemed more like missus. Keep in mind though,
30:50
Speaker 1: the Jungle Book, No, the Jumanji, Jumanji, the Jumanji movies.
31:00
Speaker 1: I absolutely loved both of them. I thought those were
31:03
Speaker 1: fun and fantastic.
31:04
Speaker 4: And he did one like Jungle Something Jungle Cruise. Yeah, yeah,
31:08
Speaker 4: that was good. I saw that you liked that.
31:12
Speaker 1: I was surprised that was one of those who like
31:14
Speaker 1: Disney is Disney is going this model where they're not
31:17
Speaker 1: only taking some of their animated movies and making them
31:23
Speaker 1: live action things, but they're they also with the Jungle
31:27
Speaker 1: Cruise did it with their ride, just the ride, the
31:30
Speaker 1: Jungle Cruise. They took the ride as the inspiration and
31:33
Speaker 1: turned that into a movie starring The Rock, Dwayne Johnson
31:37
Speaker 1: and Emily Blunt, who I absolutely adore. I think she's amazing.
31:42
Speaker 4: And I think I read that the Vin Diesel and
31:46
Speaker 4: the Rock have made up, and so the Rock is
31:49
Speaker 4: gonna come back to the Fast and the furious.
31:53
Speaker 1: I see that every so often. My new suggestions occasionally
31:57
Speaker 1: show me that they've made up. They had like a
31:59
Speaker 1: beef for a while, which is not surprising between two meatheads.
32:04
Speaker 1: And I never really know who was at fault because,
32:08
Speaker 1: in very unlike Hollywood fashion, there's not a whole lot
32:12
Speaker 1: of details about what the problem was. There's little nuggets
32:15
Speaker 1: here and there, but usually Hollywood spills their guts on
32:18
Speaker 1: this type of stuff, and I really don't know who
32:20
Speaker 1: was the jerk in the scenario.
32:22
Speaker 4: Everythink I've read said Vin Diesel got a little big
32:25
Speaker 4: for his bridges, thinking yo, he was a more bankable
32:29
Speaker 4: star than the Rock.
32:31
Speaker 1: Yeah that ain't true. Yeah, no, No, I think anyone
32:34
Speaker 1: with common sense knows if given the choice between two
32:40
Speaker 1: movies at the theater, one stars Vin Diesel and the
32:42
Speaker 1: other stars of the Rock, I'm gonna go with I'm
32:44
Speaker 1: gonna go with the Rock, right, just shut up and
32:47
Speaker 1: say I am groot. That still makes me sick. That
32:53
Speaker 1: still makes me sick that he makes any money on
32:55
Speaker 1: that whatsoever? Like fifty three million is with the oh
33:00
Speaker 1: you no he does no, not for not for three words?
33:04
Speaker 1: Uh huh oh yeah, no no, no, no, no, Trey No,
33:11
Speaker 1: I mean fast and the furious is bad enough, But
33:13
Speaker 1: fifty three million dollars just from saying I am groote
33:17
Speaker 1: yep me, I hate rich people.
33:23
Speaker 7: You're in the tree house.
33:25
Speaker 9: Visit us online a treehouse on air dot com.
33:30
Speaker 10: Really, yeah, well, you're in the tree house.
33:53
Speaker 9: Visit us online a treehouse on air dot com.
34:10
Speaker 1: It is a Fried's day inside the treehouse. Thank you,
34:36
Speaker 1: Mike Reno and love her boy. Uh, I'm there. I
34:41
Speaker 1: still feel like there was a little bit left of
34:43
Speaker 1: that dingleberry from the farting out of your mouth story
34:47
Speaker 1: we talked about earlier. Uh, and and that is uh
34:51
Speaker 1: the fart expert Claire Collins.
34:55
Speaker 8: Uh.
34:55
Speaker 1: The study she did on dietary intake and flatulence and
34:59
Speaker 1: all found. In addition to her finding that gas can
35:03
Speaker 1: leak out of your mouth if you hold it in
35:05
Speaker 1: for too long, she also found that high fiber diets
35:10
Speaker 1: result in fewer but larger farts. So how's that for
35:16
Speaker 1: something to learn inside the treehouse today? All right, high
35:20
Speaker 1: fiber diets result in fewer but larger farts.
35:23
Speaker 4: So if.
35:25
Speaker 1: If you want to blow big more fiber based on
35:30
Speaker 1: the amount of fiber and protein I've been eating over
35:32
Speaker 1: the last week, that's true. Researchers also suggest that it's
35:38
Speaker 1: better for your digestive health to release gas when the
35:41
Speaker 1: need arises, preferably in a private setting, to avoid unnecessary
35:46
Speaker 1: pressure on your system. So, like a lot of things,
35:50
Speaker 1: if you have a system that's contained and pressure is building,
35:54
Speaker 1: you need to let it go. You can't keep it
35:58
Speaker 1: bottled up because that's when bad things could happen. So
36:04
Speaker 1: just keep that in mind. But I was curious, Yes, yeah,
36:08
Speaker 1: but I am curious about this with researchers finding that
36:11
Speaker 1: gas can leak out of your mouth if you hold
36:13
Speaker 1: it in for too long. If you could fart out
36:16
Speaker 1: of your mouth, would you do it? I mean, it
36:23
Speaker 1: really does take to a whole new level. No, No, no,
36:29
Speaker 1: I think I would.
36:30
Speaker 2: I eat enough s on a regular basis, not literally,
36:35
Speaker 2: not that literally, not literally, but.
36:37
Speaker 1: Working in radio tastes like it, but not literally. Figuratively, yeah,
36:43
Speaker 1: lots of it. I think I think if I could
36:47
Speaker 1: fart out of my mouth, I think I'd do it,
36:49
Speaker 1: And then i'd I'd be really into telling people's secrets,
36:59
Speaker 1: and you guys as would never trust me again.
37:03
Speaker 4: Well, I'm just curious, Dan, uh, are these stories popping
37:07
Speaker 4: up on your feet just because of the new foundin
37:08
Speaker 4: love of pegging? Give me a moment.
37:18
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta find.
37:21
Speaker 4: Do you trade.
37:24
Speaker 1: With your own ass all the way deep deep right
37:32
Speaker 1: in your own ass?
37:37
Speaker 4: You want to tell me a secret?
37:39
Speaker 1: I do living in real close, Living in real close, mother,
37:48
Speaker 1: I got something big to tell you.
37:50
Speaker 4: Yeah, right in there.
37:57
Speaker 1: Tell you what, Trey, If you ever want me to
37:59
Speaker 1: set you up on al, I'd be happy to because
38:01
Speaker 1: then I can I can tell I can tell her
38:04
Speaker 1: that you're the biggest dick I know. For all things Treehouse,
