- 9:47Speaker 1: I would say not aware, right, not aware?
- 9:50Speaker 2: She's how old now?
- 9:51Speaker 1: Six six? Okay, so probably if I showed her and

- 18:45Speaker 2: It's called Paris syndrome. So you've dreamt of seeing Paris,
- 18:49Speaker 2: you know, because Paris is one of those cities a
- 18:51Speaker 2: lot of people dream of seeing. And then you get
- 18:53Speaker 2: there and it doesn't live up to the expectations. Psychologists
- 18:56Speaker 2: are saying it's a real psychological condition. Syndrome can cause
- 19:01Speaker 2: symptoms such as vomiting, nausea, increased heart rate, and dizziness.

- 19:26Speaker 1: alone know that you rate his wardrobe? Give you the
- 19:29Speaker 1: answer to that question, mister bender. Next Saturday, famous quote
- 19:32Speaker 1: there from the Breakfast Club movie. We have Barry Manilow
- 19:35Speaker 1: tickets coming up in about a minute or so. So
- 19:40Speaker 1: har I putted these out for you. I want you
- 19:43Speaker 1: to go over these with me. Okay, here we go.
- 19:45Speaker 1: Five questions we've been googling about the Winter Olympics. Oh yes,
- 19:50Speaker 1: producer Kristen found this great. So you've probably been on
- 19:53Speaker 1: your phone watching the Olympics and you see things and
- 19:56Speaker 1: you think to yourself, why is that happening? So you
- 19:59Speaker 1: google it, you chat gbt it. So these are what
- 20:03Speaker 1: people are asking the most about. For example, why do
- 20:06Speaker 1: ice skaters wear gloves? The normal reason is simply because well,
- 20:10Speaker 1: you want to keep your hands warm, but to protect
- 20:13Speaker 1: their hands from falls.
- 20:14Speaker 2: I would think yeah, or.
- 20:15Speaker 1: Sometimes they're even just part of the costume. But Google
- 20:18Speaker 1: has noticed that a lot of people are asking that question.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Why do ice skaters wear gloves? Why do speed skaters
- 20:26Speaker 1: wear glasses?
- 20:27Speaker 2: Why do they CuPy?
- 20:28Speaker 1: Well, mainly protect their eyes from the wind or tiny
- 20:31Speaker 1: ice chips I could fly up because they're going about
- 20:34Speaker 1: thirty to thirty five miles per hour.
- 20:36Speaker 2: They're amazing.
- 20:37Speaker 1: Yeah, how do you steer and lose? Oh?
- 20:40Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting because it doesn't it look like everybody
- 20:44Speaker 2: lean like. It looks like it's all in the shoulders.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Correct, right, Well, it's mostly with their calves, shoulders and
- 20:51Speaker 1: by shifting your weight around, so you weren't wrong. The
- 20:54Speaker 1: sleds have handles, but they don't really steer. They're just
- 20:58Speaker 1: to anchor yourself so you can and make those tiny movements.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Another big question Google has been getting how fast do
- 21:05Speaker 1: snoreboarders go in?
- 21:06Speaker 2: Snore boarders?
- 21:08Speaker 1: Snoreboarders? I did that last Yep? How fast snowboarders go
- 21:15Speaker 1: in Big Air? Yeah, it's the event with a steep
- 21:19Speaker 1: hill and one big ramp at the bottom. Crazy And
- 21:21Speaker 1: the answer is up to fifty miles an hour. And finally,
- 21:29Speaker 1: how is curling scored?
- 21:31Speaker 2: Now? This is the one you are fascinated by. Curling
- 21:34Speaker 2: ruin all the cats.
- 21:35Speaker 1: It's basically bachi on ice they call it. Only one
- 21:39Speaker 1: team scores each round. The closest stone to the center
- 21:43Speaker 1: gets a point. If you have the two closest stones,
- 21:46Speaker 1: it's two points. Three closest stones three points, right, haven't.
- 21:51Speaker 2: We said, we don't really understand how they're scoring, but
- 21:54Speaker 2: we love to watch it correct, So that kind of
- 21:56Speaker 2: explains I mean, that does explain it.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Right at home now are doing their yeah, the room
- 22:02Speaker 1: bus they get their uh and they have that room
- 22:05Speaker 1: in front of it. They're trying to slow it down.
- 22:07Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:09Speaker 1: I love curling because a lot of times Winter Olympics
- 22:11Speaker 1: will come to an end and I'll be like a
- 22:13Speaker 1: month later and I'll be like I could use some
- 22:15Speaker 1: curling in my life right by now. Now up YouTube.
- 22:18Speaker 2: Apparently it takes a ton of strength in your core
- 22:22Speaker 2: and your back and your heart rate. They said, like
- 22:25Speaker 2: at certain points their heart is going one hundred and
- 22:27Speaker 2: seventy miles per hour, miles per hour, beats per minute, which.
- 22:31Speaker 1: You wouldn't think which it looks like you really.
- 22:32Speaker 2: Don't think so. But yeah, there's these crucial moments.
- 22:35Speaker 1: I mean, the sweeping part looks busy, but other than that,
- 22:38Speaker 1: it looks like they're kind of just chilling and thinking
- 22:39Speaker 1: about the next move. Now.
- 22:40Speaker 2: They said that that could be like a mile of
- 22:42Speaker 2: chipping away ice that they're doing in that little bit
- 22:44Speaker 2: of time.
- 22:45Speaker 1: That a little bit of time that'll burn some calories right there. Yeah,
- 22:47Speaker 1: all right, So Barry Manilow, what's the deal.
