Speaker 1 (00:00):
Curty. Be you ready because I'm going to do one.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Ohd are kidding me?
Speaker 1 (00:04):
I love that we're starting off powerful. If you have
a child under the age of fourteen in your car,
just giving you a little heads up, this woman can
lift ten pounds with her vagina thanks to vaginal kung fu.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
They're going to learn it somewhere.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Folks, time to suck it up and have a powerful
episode of burn anti World.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Would you be your mind? Sillion pieces?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Would you? Guys Gales non binary pals, Welcome to Bananas.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
I'm Kurt, I'm Scottie, and we do a podcast and
you're listening to it and it's in your ears, and
it is about strange news and storytelling and adult male
friendship that is not toxic, and I think that's nice.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
We're glad to have you where we'd like to laugh.
We laugh a lot, and you can participate by sending
us news stories anywhere you want from around the world.
We love international strange news. I think the reason Kurt
and I love this podcast so much, besides getting to
chat with each other, is because we actually love strange news.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
I really do.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I've never gotten bored with any of these news stories
media since we started.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Also, it just it's weird to have such a breadth
of knowledge about weird news stories because you want to
tell people about them all the time. But after a cup,
after two or three star, it's getting weird for people
who are like, I don't know what you're talking about.
Stop telling me about the fungus that infects Bee's brains
(02:08):
and makes them fucking then die, Like I don't want
to know anymore, and.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Yet I do. And we have a lot of teachers
and we've had a lot of been animals on dates
that say like they use our stories for their classes,
they use it for conversation starters. People are like on
first dates, I tell stories. And then the cutest are
when we've had a few family members be like when
we get together, my dad listens to you guys. I
listen to you guys, and we tell each other which
(02:32):
ones were our favorite ones and we guess and I'm like, oh,
that's nice too. So all are welcome here as long
as you're not a Nazi or a bigot or a
piece of shit.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yeah, And we have a Patreon and if you're interested,
we have so many more episodes available great on our Patreon.
We do a video episode, we do a bronanas where
we have male guests, we do mail bag, we does bonusodes,
and then also we do once a month hangout where
(03:05):
we saw a couple of drinks on zoom. It's very fun,
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Tons of stuff, great community, Thank you to it.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
It's a really good community. Everybody's very cool, which is shocking.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
So many fun things. We're constantly uploading and interacting, and
I think when we tour a little bit more, maybe
next year and the future will probably release our live
episodes behind the Patreon two.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
That's a great idea.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I love that sometimes we got to kill some of
those stories and that seems like the right place to
do it. But anyways, you can start at a dollar.
We have all kinds of tears. So whatever you feel
comfortable with, we appreciate you.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
You know, Scotti. In today's world, we all need a
little something we can rely on.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Quality shouldn't have to come at an outrageous cost. If
you're looking for luxury and performance, look no further than
the twenty twenty five Alexis Gleishenko.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Alexis is the future. We've been waiting for, powerful intelligent
and sophisticated. Alexis Glishank is poetry in motion and the
ultimate human being.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
We have seen the future of excellence and its name
is Alexis Gleshenko.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Gimme this story, Scotty.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Yes, Crystal Hudgens sent this in one of my favorite contributors.
Love that Crystal Hudgens. This woman, Oh, this was in
People dot com.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
So this was in People.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
That's why I was like, I'm gonna do it because
it's not that racy. Turns out people have vaginas. Yeah,
and that's news to me. This woman can lift ten
pounds with her vagina thanks to vaginal kung fu and
says it connects a woman to her sexual power.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, okay, I'm very interested to know where the grip
is where. Just give me some info.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
You better believe I will. This was written by the
only person you want to journalize this, Gabrielle Olia. Gabrielle Oulia.
When you're talking lifting things from the nether regions, Yeah,
you're talking Gabrielle best in the biz.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Well, puss Puss, push up.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
We'll see if that stays in stay, We'll see if
that stays in the pod. Kim, that's deity. Yeah, that's fine,
we're adults here. Uh. Kim Anami is a vaginal kung
fu master that says this method of building vaginal strength
can do everything from improving your sex life to providing
a natural facelift. In the vaginal kung Fume program I teach,
(05:31):
she says, it's about toning the pelvic floor with a
weight training routine and in the process, yeah, she's lifting weights, okay,
and in the process reconnecting a woman to her body
and sexual power. Anami, forty four years of age, forty
four years young and strong, I would say, tells people
(05:51):
dot Com she believes that most this is her saying this.
She believes that most women have numb vaginas resulting from
a lack of proper use. Just like any muscles that
haven't been exercised, it will atrophy. This leads to numbness, disassociation,
lower lebido. Vaginal kung fu invigorates it so it can
(06:12):
function as it is meant to as a giver of
multiple orgasms and life changing pleasure. All right, all right,
say what we will. Kim Anami is fun.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Kim is living life. She is lifting, She is going
to the grocery store and just putting ten pounds of
stuff up there.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah, she's in that Jane's addiction video. She's stealing whatever
she wants.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I still want to know how the lifting occurs continue.
I mean, I can imagine. I have some ideas, but
I'm really very interested. If there's a contraption she uses.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Don't google that. I came across the ancient Taoist practice
of vaginal weightlifting about fifteen years ago, she said, And
I tried it, and I noticed an immediate benefit, nice,
very uplifting. Not only did I feel vaginally stronger, but
my orgasms were more powerful and pleasurable. Anami says she
(07:15):
uses a jade egg attached to a string. So there
you go. Just need to just go on goop dot
com or goop dot org, not goop dot net. Whatever
you do. T me from experience, don't do not go
to goop dot net for your jade eggs. Oh boy,
(07:35):
if these walls could if these vaginal walls could talk,
U is that is that? I just made the great?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
That is fantastic. I wish this author had said that.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Well, they didn't hire me at people dot com, and
they're gonna I'm gonna they're gonna rude the day they're
going to rule the deck. Uh, And I'm uses a
jadegg attached to string to physically lift objects with her vagiene.
She has lifted everything from tropical fruit to a surfboard. So, Kurt,
this might come in handy for you. Maybe get a
butt egg.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
If I was going to go for the two objects
that we go from, too, I wouldn't have guessed tropical fruit,
and I wouldn't have guessed surfboard.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Surfboard especially. Tropical fruit could be a banana.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Could be anything, could be a dragon, fruit, could be
a kiwi.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
I'm pretty confident my butt could lift a kiwi right now.
I'm very confident.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Hmmm oh a kiwi? Yeah yeah, I don't think my
butterhole could lift a butthole.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
No, you got to train for months for that. She
can lift up to ten pounds using just her vaginal
muscles seeing weight.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
So it's not her standing up and holding it is that, Okay, Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It is, But she's she's the whole, hold the whole,
the grip on the eggs. Yeah yeah, yeah, exactly, copy
in her special place, seeing and feeling the difference I
began incorporating the teaching into my work as a sex
and relationship coach. Anami says. The benefits include Again this
is the third time this has been stated. Gabrielle really
(09:12):
wants to drive this point home. Benefits include more orgasms
and increased libido, elimination of urinary incontinence. That seems good,
Easier childbirth. I'm not even commenting on that. Who knows,
improved and tightened skin. I have clients stop using botox
for overall confidence. I see this as every woman's god
(09:34):
given right, she says, and that is the last sentence
in this And you.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Know, lady is awesome.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
It is her god given right.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
This is, i you know, very fun to have around.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Kim Anami. I'm going to look you up on Instagram
and just see if, I mean, is she a good
guest or would that be a major mistake. Only time
will tell.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
That's a great idea.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Well, we have to do the heavy lifting in the episode,
is what I'm saying. But good for her, she figured
out something that works for her. She sounds like she's
probably fun of cocktail parties.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Oh hell yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
If this doesn't work out, she can always I don't know,
become the world's greatest smuggler.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I guess, yeah, yeah, more like a circus, but uh
not a child circus.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Nope. Did I ever tell the story When I was
at Hampshire College, and oh, I am sure I did so.
There when there was Lollapalooza, there was this traveling circus,
freak show circus that would travel with Lollapalooza, and one
of the guys went to Hampshire College and his skill
was he could balance. I must have told this. He
(10:48):
could balance a push mower running, so a lawn mower
that was running on his chin, and then you could
toss heads of lettuce into it into the blades.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So for those around the world, im that I remember that,
I remember, yeah, I remember used to live things.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
So they used to lift a car battery with like
nipple rings. It was pretty intense. Well we'll look it up,
but one of the performers went to Hampshire College. For
those who are not in the United States, or honestly
those who were not Massachusetts, Hampshire College is a very interesting,
extremely open minded, progressive school where you could make at
(11:28):
least when I was there, you could make your own majors,
you could kind of go be the weirdest version of
yourself you wanted. They didn't have freshman, sophomore, junior, senior.
They had level one, two, three, and they didn't really
have grades. They just had a group of professors who
you would present what you wanted to do and your
final projects, and they would just say, okay, you've done it,
and move you up the latter. Famously, one art student
(11:51):
freaked out and just stapled all of their clothes to
their entire apartments so that their bedroom was just all
of their clothes and they graduated with I degree. So
that is the school I'm talking about. I did a
film there when I was a freshman with my friend
Dan called Surreality Bound. It was not a surreal film
when we started, but it was so bad that he
(12:11):
edited it and colorized it to make it a surreal film.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Of course, that's that's that's an easy answer there.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yes, And while filming that on so you.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Were just buddies with him. He went to school there.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
I met this man one time. He went to school there,
and the director of that film was like, Oh, you
don't know this guy. I was like, no, I don't
go to school here. I don't know anybody. I took
the bus to get here and the guy pulled start
lawndner and bounced it on his chin. And then people
were throwing things, handfuls of stuff into his lawner on
(12:44):
his chin just in the quad.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Is that part of the movie. No, he was just
nothing to do with the movie, I think, And it
doesn't involve this specific skill because this is the movie
we want to see.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Oh dude. There was a woman that was the ad
on that movie, who very very attractive, very beautiful woman,
and she was dating the director and she had this
British accent. And then when we wrapped and we were
all hanging out and we're all drinking, she turns to
me and she goes, I'm directing a porno and I
actually am not British, and I go okay. And so
(13:22):
she had been faking a British accent while at school
and then she directed a student pornography film. I was
not in that. I did not star in that. But
that is amazing. This was my freshman year, first semester
that it was like welcome to the real world, little
boy alone.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
That is amazing. It was the Jim Rose sideshow circus.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's the one.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Jim definitely seems like a guy who's been canceled since then.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Yeah, we're gonna we're not going to dread into that territory.
But yes, it is an educational podcast. And there was
a time where they were tour with music festivals nine
Inch Nails or whatever, and yeah, one of the performers
was on campus and he said, do you like Pearl Cham.
I go yes, I go sure, I like everybody likes them.
(14:10):
They're fine. Yeah there and he goes, I just met
Eddie Vedder last week backstage at Lallapalooza and he threw
an apple into my lawnmower and I go, oh, that's cool,
and he goes, you know what's so weird about Eddie
Vedder's He goes, how are you? And I was like, yeah,
I'm good, I'm good, and Eddie Vedder just looks at
me and he goes, no, no, no, how are you?
(14:30):
And he said they had like a fifteen minute, very deep,
heart to heart, like life changing conversation backstage after after
having the lawnmower going on his chin, no how are you?
And then he said, like Eddie was just like welling
up at the eyes looking dead into this guy's soul,
and they they had a nice chat.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Oh man, And the thing that he learned about that
was he'll never forget Eddie Vetter's words.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
What does he say it Yellow Lead Better? I don't
even know whatever that song is. I don't know what
he says. I'm never going to look it up either.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I love that story so very very much, dude.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
I was not planning on tell that one. That was
like a maybe I did before. Who knows, We've told
so many at this point, who freaking knows.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
It's good, you know what it's it's for for me
being on this podcast. It's good that my memory is
just like I have a fish bowl memory. Every time
I come back around, I'm shocked and surprised to see
the you.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Know what, a good way to live a life.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
I'm excited about it. I enjoy it, and I loved
Jim Rows is maybe doing great right now.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
I was. I went as Girls Gone Wild that October
that freshman or Halloween, where my costume was I dressed
up like a woman in full makeup, wig, everything, and
then I had a halter your top pulled up and
then I'd made a cardboard cut out that said girls
Gone Wild across it because you weren't allowed, you know,
they were blanket out for the commercials. And I went
to the Hampshire party and that was a very popular costume.
(16:06):
Not because anybody's a hornball there. They're actually the opposites
that British fake British director. They were just like, yes,
make fun of it, satirize it. We need to spoof it,
we need to defeat this. Photos of that one somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Also they were like, we like visual representation of censor
bars on you.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Yes, we've never seen that. We love cross dressing. I
was like, me too, sign me up.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
It is Scottie.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
You got it, buddy.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
This dog was thought to be blind. Turns out he
was just ignoring everyone.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
That's my guy, this is my guy.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
And there's a photograph of him ignoring the person taking
the camp taking the picture.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I love it so much.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
This was in ola dot com.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Okay, I found it already.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
What, Oh my god, that's eighteen year old me.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Girls Gone Wild Hampshire College got Marti Gras beads on.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
It's a great it's a great outfit. Well, also it
feels pornographic because you're such a small child in that photograph.
I mean, I am eighteen, you're eighteen. It feels it
feels wrong looking.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
At it, and yet so right here it is.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
This was written by Danielle Nira. She's a senior writer
at ola dot com. Meet Don Luis, a six year
old pup who is living proof that sometimes we just
need to focus on ourselves. This calm dog went viral
after Fundacion sent Us Patitas, an animal rescue in Chile,
shared his story on social media. It all started when
(17:47):
their team grew concerned about one of their rescue dogs,
a calm and collected pup night named Don Luise. He
didn't seem to respond to anything around him, toys, people, movement,
and staff worried he might be He is such a
cute dog he looks exactly like Zelda. They booked him
a vet appointment to get answers. What they didn't expect
(18:07):
was that he was not blind, but was in fact
ignoring everyone a fantastic As the veterinarian examined him, Don
Louis quickly proved he could see just fine. A video
of the appointment shows him reacting perfectly to movement when
he felt like it. That moment, equal parts adorable and hilarious,
instantly went viral. He is such a cute dog, Oh
my god. Across social platforms, online users were obsessed, commons
(18:30):
flooded and celebrating his energy. Quote a whole mood, quote
me on Mondays, quote patron saint of boundaries. In just
a few days, Don Louis went from a mellow rescue
pup to a relatable, four legged icon. Fans of the
dog took to Instagram to share some stories about their
own pets, proving that Don Louis is not the only
dog who wants to have his space. At times, I
thought my dog was deaf when she came home because
(18:51):
she did not answer, And when I took her to
the vet, I was told she was healthy. One person right,
So that's a good story. Despite his Internet fame, Don
Louis still looking for a forever home, and this is
why he is on this podcast right now. According to
the team at sent Us Petitas, he's healthy, suite, full
of personality, independent and vibing in his own space. Quote
He's the kind of dog who will love you quietly.
(19:14):
He just wants someone to respect his style.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Yeah, So if you live in Chile. Go to foundation
sent Us Patitas and get this doggie.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
I mean, what a dream dog. It's just an indifferent
dog that you know. That's fantastic. I would love that
so much, Kurt, how many, speaking of ignoring the outside world,
how many unopened emails are in your primary inbox?
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Would you like a number?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yes? I would, okay, because I can tell you mine
right now. Zero. I open everything as soon as I
get it, and it is the fain of my existence.
And ninety seven I would I would crack in pieces
and blow away with the lightest of breezes if I
(20:03):
had four but animals, let us know how many unopened
unread emails are in your primary primary box and just
just send it to the Bonanz podcast. Well, either can
gmail it to us, or you can do it on
Instagram if you want to take a picture of it
(20:24):
without you know, sharing your personal information of how many
unread and tag us in the stories. We will share it.
But again, don't dox yourself. How many unopened emails unread?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
I wonder what that is, right, because it's definitively the
world skews one or the other.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Right.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Is it an ability to tolerate messiness or is it
a desire for cleanliness? You know, like, which is it?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Like?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
You know, like I want to know what it signifies.
I definitely think people who read every email like yourself
are far more successful in life.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
I read well. I don't know if that's true. I
actually think people that prioritize other things might be way
more successful. But I, yeah, I have zero. I actually
delete emails and text messages and stuff like if I'm
texting with somebody that is not a part of my
regular life, I'll just delete those because I'm like, if
I'm scrolling back looking for a conversation or a photo,
(21:26):
you and I head over text, I want to be
able to find you right away. So if somebody I
kind of know hits me, I'm like, I'm in LA
for the week, can we get dinner? And I'm like no,
I'll just delete it because I just don't want clutter
at all.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, I now just rely on the search function for everything.
Like my desktop is just thousands of files and I
don't honestly find it helpful to like organize them because
you spend so much time organizing them because new things
always come in and so you're always spending time moving
things from one place to another, when it's really you
(21:58):
just go into a search thing and you know what
words exist in the document.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Let's true.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Just do that and they just all pop up for you.
So it's like you're filing on the fly as opposed
to filing premeditatively.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah, Like I am curious. And the reason I even
thought about this from the jump is about god, three
or four years ago. It was over with a friend
of ours who's a comedian, and she opened her laptop
and she had like fifteen thousand unready emails and she
was complaining about like not having a manager at the
agent at the time. I'm like, I bet there's one
in there that reached out to you. Like I never
(22:33):
have fomo about people's experiences, but like I have a
fear of missing out if somebody's like, hey, do you
want to work on this, and I'm like, yes, I do.
Like I also would like to see if there's a
correlation between airplane aisle people and airplane window people and
the number and this because I would guess that window
people are have unread emails.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Oh but I'm an ale person. See, I'm an aile person.
I bet you there's no correlation there, damn.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
And see that's that's how we solve every problem.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I think ale stuff is just about how much you pee.
I want to be able to pee one hundred times
a flight. I like taking a walk. I like stretching
my legs.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Aisles by far the best buy.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
The tonnel Isle's the best, baby. But I mean like
looking out the window.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
But nah, I've seen it all before. What's to see?
Just fields? Yeah, I've seen the Grand Canyon. Big whoop.
It's a hole. Uh yeah right, It's like the coolest
thing in the world. When you see it, you're like, damn,
nice work, babe, and Paul Bunyan. I'll tease the sending
(23:43):
some thumbs ups. This one's for you. Kurt wah Wah
super fan goes viral for collecting every receipt number from
zero to nine hundred and ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yes, I like that.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
It took so long. Okay, let's do some thumb I.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Would like to say that first off, Olive is a
huge fan of wah Wah A big Ready. We went
on a trip and we were coming home from the
trip and we crossed over into New Jersey. This is
after this child has lived in New Jersey for a
month and a half and she just goes, ah, sweet
(24:24):
sweet New Jersey, happy to be back.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I think this move was a good move for the
whole brown older clan. And what do they have at
wah Wah for kids? Like giant fries or something.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Oh, they and cheese soup. They have chicken fingers, they
have hot dogs. They get it all. Whilea is really
a magical place.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
God, but it's expanding and it gets to it in
the article. But first the thumbs ups. Yeah, Alison wants
the thumbs up all federal workers, including her name redacted partner,
who have been worried about being fired every single day
for months and months. Federal workers do God's work. Alson
says this is coming from an atheist, from things like
(25:09):
making sure drinking water is safe to drink and swim in,
to helping students succeed, to rescuing lost hikers, to curing cancer.
So everyone should give them a huge thumbs up until
and they should all get all of their jobs back. Yes,
I agree, sums up to you, Elison and your partner.
Hope you're both working. Kate Rickers wants to give a
(25:31):
huge thumbs up to her partner and her kids. Her
partner just finished his first graphic novel and published it.
It is the extraordinary story of punctuation superheroes with lots
of humor and heart. It's called The Punctuators Question Quest
Nice that could be an Olive special honestly, Oh yeah,
(25:51):
and then I really like this, so congratulations to I'm
guessing we'll just call mister Rickers for the Punctuators, you
can find on Amazon. They are also developing a story
based on her son's concept for a character called orb
Bro who uses palindromes orb Bro. I love Orb bro O. Kate.
(26:15):
Let us know when Orbro is ready. I'd love to
see the art on that and go support mister Rickers
and the Punctuators.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Thumbs up.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Here's a great one. Tyler Black wants to thumb himself
up from abstaining for alcohol from alcohol for over one
year after twenty years of alcohol abuse disorder, and he
also wants to give some mega thumbs up to his
awesome support team, his mother Donna, his sister Raymie I'm
guessing Ramie, his brother Tyson, and his great sister in
(26:45):
law LEXI. Thumbs up to you, Tyler over a year
of alcohol free. That is is very very very impressive.
Nice work, and let's do one more here. This is
a good one. Jess seven wants to thumb up her
friends who own Charm City Books in Baltimore. Hell. Yes,
(27:06):
Charm City Books is an independent bookstore. They do tons
of community events and are all around great people. You
can bring your dogs in there. You can order books
through their website and if they don't have it, they
will get any book you want for you. So support
local bookstores Charm City Books in Baltimore, And Jess, if
you're still a ban animal and you still listen to this,
(27:27):
I will absolutely visit Charm City Books before Christmas this year.
I'm going to be in Maryland and I'm going to
buy books from my whole entire family from Charm City Books.
That's awesome and finest.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
There is something, there's something that we have lost with
Amazon one day next day prime delivery, which is that
idea of being like, oh I really want this book, yeah,
and going and it's not there, and then special ordering
it and then getting the call that it's available, and
then going in picking it up. It becomes so much
(28:02):
more important to you and I feel like you're you're
more liable to like go immediately sit down and read
it because of that, because that used to be the
experience of it all. And now recently because we're in
this town where the library is kind of under construction,
it's like a very small amount of books that are available,
so you always have to like put stuff on hold
(28:24):
for the kids, And so the kids will put stuff
on hold and then we'll go get it, and it's
like voracious, like there's a book available at the libraries
to like walk over there and get it and then
they read it immediately. It's like very exciting.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah, yes, that is a lost art form. That's also
I don't do instacart or no shots fired on those
nice people doing that for people. Well, I know it's
a real necessity for a lot of people. But like
I like going the grocery store because I just like
tooting around.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
I like walking and looking.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
I know, sometimes they get a cart just for me
and I don't even feel up the cart. I just
kind of like seeing what's out there. I like new things.
I like to learn what people are up to right
now at their local Galson's. And I did buy this.
They have Halloween cheese, Kurt, what I have some delicious
sharp British cheddar cheese shape like a coffin. The wax
(29:19):
around it is black. It is shaped like a coffin.
I was like, this is coming home. I cut that
soccer open last night. Delicious. Oh. I've never seen coffin
cheese before either. I had to go to the cracker.
I oult to buy crackers for it.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
The coffin crackers cheese rinds really are the coffins for milk.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yeah, and nobody's talking about it. And finally someone has
the courage to speak truth to power. Alexis Doster sent
this in Maybe Doster Sorry, Alexis love the name Alexis.
Though this was in New Jersey dot Com again A
curdiebe Special written by Rebecca Heath best in the biz.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
I probably will meet her someday. Being in New Jersey,
it's a very small state. You know where wah wah
comes from the name.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
No clue, zero idea.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It is the name. It is the native name for
Canadian geese because it's the noise they make. Wow Wow, I.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Like it even more now.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, and if they have merd Zack tribe, I wish
I did.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Oh, I see, well if they ever make merch with
a goose on it, saying wow, wah, I do need
one in an XL please, thank you. Yes, I have
your humpback chub shirt over here too. And when you
land on your feet at the next place, you give
me that address I got bananaals have sent you some shit, dude.
I got a lot of packages, all right, sweet, and
none of it's crap. It's all beautiful. Yeah baby, here
(30:45):
we go. A wah wah. Super fan goes viral for
collecting receipts for every order number zero, two, nine, and
ninety nine Tyler M. Gersey in Tyler Ghersey in twenty
two of Barnegat who visits Barnet Barnegut, Thank you Barnegut
who visits the convenience store chain three or four times
(31:07):
per day? Yeah maybe, Now says that's a super bad
Now says his viral collection started as a complete accident.
Back in twenty twenty one. Quote Tyler says, I just
had like a collection order slips growing in my car's glovebox,
just because I wasn't throwing away for some reason. Tyler said,
(31:27):
As the collection got bigger, I just kind of kept
holding on to them. When the collection out grew his glovebox,
Tyler said he started storing the slips in his bedroom drawer.
As his stash continued to grow, he challenged himself.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
So where did it go from there? Scottie, I want
to know where the stash was store.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, you have to know where he's keeping his receipts from.
Wah wah. I mean, it's a funnier thing if it
just started overflowing out of his car where he's like,
don't roll the windows down. That's number forty seven. His
stash continued to grow, he challenged himself to find every
possible Deli receipt number they make. I had a couple hundred,
(32:06):
and I was like, well, okay, I got to complete
the collection. See how long this will take? He said.
I would spend time sorting them, putting them in numerical order.
I just kind of ran with it until the very end.
I like this attitude. Didn't even really want to do it,
just kind of he fell into it. She gotta do
something in this life.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
You gotta do something. Look, he's got an article about
him on New Jersey dot com. You're the most interesting
person in Barnegut.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Hundreds of thousands of people will hear this podcast. Tyler
Urizenian is very famous. Now I had a couple hundred.
I was like, okay, God, I can believe the collection. So,
Tyler said the most challenging part of his endeavor was
securing the last ten numbers of his collection, which took
him eight months. Towards the end of the challenge, she
recruited a friend to help through social media. When Tyler
(32:56):
found out the last number to complete his collection, he said,
he felt relief.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
What was the last number? M It goes from zero
to nine hundred and ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Yeah, two thousand. So he has all of those and
there's a photo. They're all laid out in order. There's
almost one thousand of them. Finally, he said, I can
stop and have some free time. I know, it's like
self inflicted Tyler.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Tyler, Yeah, Tyler, come on, buddy, Tyler said, you could
have free time before this was done.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I think this sounds like you only had free time.
That's just the definition of free time. Time three to
four whah wah visits a day? Ok Uh. Tyler said.
The slip sat in his drawart for about five months
until he decided to layout his entire collection into americal
order and snap a photo on social media. In July,
(33:50):
he posted it on x for his fifteen followers, not
expecting to receive much attention. Instead, the post quickly guarded
four million views and received comments from wah wah, this
is the level of dedication we're talking about.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
This is awesome. He had fifteen followers.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Fifteen followers, and four million people saw it.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
That's so fun.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
I wasn't really expecting anybody to see it, just like
ten people. It was definitely really overwhelming because all of
a sudden, my phone was blowing up. Since going viral
on social media, he claims he's been flooded with interview
requests and messages from past acquaintances, I mean past acquaintances.
The guy's twenty two years old. Yeah, how far back
we go in here? Six years four year old. Yeah,
we were in preschool together. You've done some pretty impressive
(34:34):
things in the last eighteen years. Uh. He's no longer
holding on to his Deli receipts insane. He definitely should be.
How much could a thousand receipts take up?
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Like I mean, I mean six inches by four inches?
Speaker 1 (34:53):
Yeah, an envelope, a Manila envelope. It's fun thing to
hold on too. Took you eight months or something. I
guess I actually took him. He's no longer holding onto
the deliveracys. He doesn't intend on reducing his Wahwa trips
anytime soon. So Kurt, you're probably going to meet Tyler
before he meet Rebecca Heath. During a typical day, he
starts his morning with a coffee from wah Wah. Then
(35:14):
he visits the store for launch, and he often gets
dinner there too. His favorite item on the menu is
the mac and cheese, which Kurt already said is fantastic,
and he says it pairs nicely with their sandwiches. I
bet it does. He's visited over one hundred Wahwah stores,
but he doesn't have a favorite location. He says the
(35:35):
consist the consistency across the stores is part of what
keeps him coming back so frequently. Everything's familiar, Kurt, Everything's
consistent no matter what location I go to. The employees
are really friendly. With one completed Wahwah challenge under his belt,
he's now set his sights on another endeavor. Snapping a
photo in front of every Wahwah location in the United States.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
All right, there we go to get the next goal.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Yeah, this guy is a banana boy in training. Really,
he's like banana boy number nine and ninety nine wah
Wah has. Just take a wild guess how many they
just have a New Jersey, Kurt, Okay, this is all
right's it's an educational podcast.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
It is an educational podcast. I'm going to guess just
a New Jersey, just in New Jersey. I'm going to
say one hundred and forty eight locations.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
You know, that's a really good guess. It's it's two
hundred and eighty eight, but I think one hundred and
forty eight is a good guess.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
And then while the chain is currently operating one thousand
and fifty stores, what it has one thousand and fifty
stores in eight states Maryland?
Speaker 2 (36:48):
That oh really wow.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
It has plans to continue expanding throughout the country, including Kentucky, Indiana,
and oh Ohio. So I don't know, let's give him
Banana of the Week. Yeah, Banana week Nan of a week.
I loved Tyler, Guy yoursy and Guy reason, your reason.
You are Banana of the weekend. Though, I can't pronounce
your last name, but good for you for having a
(37:10):
dumb idea and taking it to the extreme. That is
what bananas is all about.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
My life in it was like a sweet spot, probably
thirteen fourteen years old sure, where just gaggles of kids
would come to my house on like a Friday night.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
And I don't know why I was my house. I
guess because my mom was like chill about just like
having kids over. And we would walk from my house
to wah Wah and that was probably a I don't know,
like a mile and a half each way.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
What a dream come true.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
And it was just delightful. We would I mean, you know,
we would walk there. We would smoke cigarettes along the way, yes,
and then get there buy more cigarettes, and then buy
ice cream, but get a big pint of Ben and Jerry's. Oh,
walk back with a big pine of Ben and Jerry's
eating it and smoking cigarettes along the way. Jesus a dear,
(38:07):
like those trips are probably the reason I now live
in New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
That sounds so heavenly to me. It was right. I
wrote a paper in college. It was like a final
for some communication class. It was like in a personal
communication that heaven. It was what you described that your
childhood is heaven and everything after is meaningless. But like
that there is no afterlife, there is a happy childhood
is heaven, and everything else is just the epilogue. Everything
(38:35):
else is just wasting time. And when I hear you
say that, I feel like you just defended my thesis
that like, oh yeah, you heaven for you when when
you go up to that big cosmic banana in the
sky could just be you at twelve years old with
a group of friends, eating ice cream, smoke and cigarettes
to take a walk on a hot Jersey night. That
(38:56):
is like poetic, so beautiful.
Speaker 2 (38:59):
So so pleasant. But I love that idea, you know.
I love the idea of like this now life being
the heaven. Do you know what I mean? That the
whole idea of this Christian concept that you and I
book grew up heavily with, of like you have to
(39:20):
be nice to people, you have to be kind so
in order to go to.
Speaker 1 (39:25):
Heaven to be rewarded.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
Yeah, yeah right, But I really think it. What it
means is like in order to go to heaven here,
like to make heaven here, is just to be nice
and kind to people and then that's how you actually
make the heaven. It's here, there's nothing after it. It's agree.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
I agree. I'm with you one hundred percent on that.
I've told my best friend when I was at age
like eleven twelve, same thing he was. I've talked about
him a couple of times. He would have the weirdest
and funniest eating habits. He was the one that used
to make cinnamon toast. That he would take an entire
level of white bread and toast every single piece and
then butter it and put cinnamon on it and then
(40:03):
re stack it cut diagonally into a tower of cinnamon toast.
And we used to stand around his parents' kitchen table
and just three of us would just eat entire loaf
of cinnamon toast. It's fun. Crazy. I would go over
his house and he would buy a thing of strawberries
and take out a bag of Domino sugar and he
would cut the strawberries in half and just dip them
(40:24):
in the sugar and eat and live rest in peace, Kyle.
But he was he was fun. He was an indulgent guy.
I think we could say that. But he was definitely
my deepest best friend back then, and when we would
go to our version of wah Wah, which was either
Royal Farms or Highs. I don't even know if Highs
is still around, but Royal Farms is definitely still around.
(40:46):
We would pull our money, so usually three bucks four bucks,
and we would buy what are called ranch fries, which
are just like wedge fries, just big thick ones, always those.
Speaker 2 (40:54):
There, and they almost they have almost like the fried
chicken coating on them.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Yes, And I can only remember what I'm leading to is,
there have only been a few times in my life
where I've had a food that I can actually remember
the exact moment when I had it, and it was
like life altering. And we go to Royal Farms. We
rode our bikes there. It was about the same, probably
a twenty minute bike ride, and we park didn't even
have to like up lock up the bikes back then.
(41:20):
What a time to be alive. And we go in
and the new product was ice cream Snickers bars. We
had never seen him, we had never heard him, had
the way in those freezer chests, chess freezers or whatever.
And Kyle opens it up and he unwraps and he
takes a bite and he just looks at me, his
eyes go wide. It was just like, oh, and he
hands it to me. I mean we were best friends.
(41:40):
I take a bike and I remember the exact moment
I ate in ice cream snickers. It was like, how
did they do it? What mad scientists in the lab
figured out how to make something good even like just
fantastic And yeah, his face he just like looked up
at me like I've discovered the cured to cancer and uh,
(42:04):
I'll never ever. It was like such a great moment
that we were like, we ate it before we paid
for and then it was like that became our routine.
You get some ranch fries, you get an ice cream snicker.
Speaker 2 (42:14):
Well that sounds great.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
That was my heaven. That was my heaven on earth.
What a delight it really was. I'll tease this.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
Into a out of here.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
An out of here, yeah wrapper uptight?
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Uh here it is.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
Let's get an ice cream snicker sponsor on this exactly right.
We love you, ice cream Snickers. Think about it.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
Couple find after bust lane camera photographs text on woman's top.
Oh dude, I saw this fun.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
This is so good and.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
I'm sent in by SB also as known as Bella
Balls Bella Balls Bella. This was an independent and written
by further Shaw.
Speaker 1 (42:58):
O Shaw good name besting the Bees.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
A couple were mistakenly find after a camera mistook the
writing on a woman's top for their car number plate.
David and Paulin Knight from Surrey received a fine of
ninety pounds from Bath Council for being in a bus lane.
Despite not having been near the city and looking at
the photographic evidence provided by the council, the couple found
there was no vehicle in the CCTV image, but a
(43:24):
woman wearing a T shirt printed with the word knitter.
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Dude, I saw this. It is so funny.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
She's just a knitter guy. She loves to knit. And
they were walking in the bus lane. The couple's vehicle registration,
which reads k n I nine ter knitter, was mistaken
as the passer by in the T shot.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
Just a woman walking on the bus lane.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
This woman loves knitting so much. She has a shirt
with it, she has a plate with it. She loves
to knit.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
It's so good. She has sort of a you know,
she's she It is a wide sweater. The front of
her sweater is pretty wide. And when I saw it,
I laughed so hard because that photo is pretty clearly
a person, but it is about as wide as a
license plate across her.
Speaker 2 (44:13):
Check, probably exactly, and the height of the letters is
the height of like a British license plate.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
Oh my gosh, that is so funny. I'm talking about
framing it. If you're not going to frame your wah
wah DELI receipts that photo, I would show everybody that photo.
Speaker 2 (44:33):
I'm so bummed out that I never framed my my,
my speeding ticket with the big smile, or for making
a left. I think I was making a left.
Speaker 1 (44:41):
I mean it's probably somewhere, probably on on the Banana's Instagram,
I think. So we'll have to go back and find it.
That seems like put it on a Christmas ball. That's
an all timer. That's your only experience summed up a
ticket but also having a good time.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
Well, thank you so much, Scottie.
Speaker 1 (44:58):
Thank you, Kurtie B. Thank you everybody exactly right. Thank
you to Katie Levine who helps us out so much.

very great job helping us with everything, including Bananas Fest two,
and thank you to all of you for listening. We
appreciate this community, the support you give us, and you
(45:18):
guys actually trying to be nice, decent people in a
very odd world. Bananas, Oh Right. Bananas is an exactly
right media production. Our producer and engineer is Katie Levine.
The catchy Bananas theme song was composed and performed by Kahan.
Speaker 2 (45:41):
Artwork for Bananas was designed by Travis Millard.
Speaker 1 (45:44):
And our benevolent overlords are the great Karen Kilgareff and
Georgia Hardstart.
Speaker 2 (45:48):

You can listen to Bananas on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify,
or wherever you get your podcasts, and please feel free
rate and review as many times as you can. We
love those five stars.
Curty. Be you ready because I'm going to do one.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Ohd are kidding me?
Speaker 1 (00:04):
I love that we're starting off powerful. If you have
a child under the age of fourteen in your car,
just giving you a little heads up, this woman can
lift ten pounds with her vagina thanks to vaginal kung fu.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
They're going to learn it somewhere.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Folks, time to suck it up and have a powerful
episode of burn anti World.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Would you be your mind? Sillion pieces?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Would you? Guys Gales non binary pals, Welcome to Bananas.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
I'm Kurt, I'm Scottie, and we do a podcast and
you're listening to it and it's in your ears, and
it is about strange news and storytelling and adult male
friendship that is not toxic, and I think that's nice.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
We're glad to have you where we'd like to laugh.
We laugh a lot, and you can participate by sending
us news stories anywhere you want from around the world.
We love international strange news. I think the reason Kurt
and I love this podcast so much, besides getting to
chat with each other, is because we actually love strange news.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
I really do.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I've never gotten bored with any of these news stories
media since we started.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Also, it just it's weird to have such a breadth
of knowledge about weird news stories because you want to
tell people about them all the time. But after a cup,
after two or three star, it's getting weird for people
who are like, I don't know what you're talking about.
Stop telling me about the fungus that infects Bee's brains
(02:08):
and makes them fucking then die, Like I don't want
to know anymore, and.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Yet I do. And we have a lot of teachers
and we've had a lot of been animals on dates
that say like they use our stories for their classes,
they use it for conversation starters. People are like on
first dates, I tell stories. And then the cutest are
when we've had a few family members be like when
we get together, my dad listens to you guys. I
listen to you guys, and we tell each other which
(02:32):
ones were our favorite ones and we guess and I'm like, oh,
that's nice too. So all are welcome here as long
as you're not a Nazi or a bigot or a
piece of shit.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yeah, And we have a Patreon and if you're interested,
we have so many more episodes available great on our Patreon.
We do a video episode, we do a bronanas where
we have male guests, we do mail bag, we does bonusodes,
and then also we do once a month hangout where
(03:05):
we saw a couple of drinks on zoom. It's very fun,
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Tons of stuff, great community, Thank you to it.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
It's a really good community. Everybody's very cool, which is shocking.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
So many fun things. We're constantly uploading and interacting, and
I think when we tour a little bit more, maybe
next year and the future will probably release our live
episodes behind the Patreon two.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
That's a great idea.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I love that sometimes we got to kill some of
those stories and that seems like the right place to
do it. But anyways, you can start at a dollar.
We have all kinds of tears. So whatever you feel
comfortable with, we appreciate you.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
You know, Scotti. In today's world, we all need a
little something we can rely on.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Quality shouldn't have to come at an outrageous cost. If
you're looking for luxury and performance, look no further than
the twenty twenty five Alexis Gleishenko.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Alexis is the future. We've been waiting for, powerful intelligent
and sophisticated. Alexis Glishank is poetry in motion and the
ultimate human being.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
We have seen the future of excellence and its name
is Alexis Gleshenko.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Gimme this story, Scotty.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Yes, Crystal Hudgens sent this in one of my favorite contributors.
Love that Crystal Hudgens. This woman, Oh, this was in
People dot com.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
So this was in People.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
That's why I was like, I'm gonna do it because
it's not that racy. Turns out people have vaginas. Yeah,
and that's news to me. This woman can lift ten
pounds with her vagina thanks to vaginal kung fu and
says it connects a woman to her sexual power.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, okay, I'm very interested to know where the grip
is where. Just give me some info.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
You better believe I will. This was written by the
only person you want to journalize this, Gabrielle Olia. Gabrielle Oulia.
When you're talking lifting things from the nether regions, Yeah,
you're talking Gabrielle best in the biz.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Well, puss Puss, push up.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
We'll see if that stays in stay, We'll see if
that stays in the pod. Kim, that's deity. Yeah, that's fine,
we're adults here. Uh. Kim Anami is a vaginal kung
fu master that says this method of building vaginal strength
can do everything from improving your sex life to providing
a natural facelift. In the vaginal kung Fume program I teach,
(05:31):
she says, it's about toning the pelvic floor with a
weight training routine and in the process, yeah, she's lifting weights, okay,
and in the process reconnecting a woman to her body
and sexual power. Anami, forty four years of age, forty
four years young and strong, I would say, tells people
(05:51):
dot Com she believes that most this is her saying this.
She believes that most women have numb vaginas resulting from
a lack of proper use. Just like any muscles that
haven't been exercised, it will atrophy. This leads to numbness, disassociation,
lower lebido. Vaginal kung fu invigorates it so it can
(06:12):
function as it is meant to as a giver of
multiple orgasms and life changing pleasure. All right, all right,
say what we will. Kim Anami is fun.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Kim is living life. She is lifting, She is going
to the grocery store and just putting ten pounds of
stuff up there.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah, she's in that Jane's addiction video. She's stealing whatever
she wants.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I still want to know how the lifting occurs continue.
I mean, I can imagine. I have some ideas, but
I'm really very interested. If there's a contraption she uses.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Don't google that. I came across the ancient Taoist practice
of vaginal weightlifting about fifteen years ago, she said, And
I tried it, and I noticed an immediate benefit, nice,
very uplifting. Not only did I feel vaginally stronger, but
my orgasms were more powerful and pleasurable. Anami says she
(07:15):
uses a jade egg attached to a string. So there
you go. Just need to just go on goop dot
com or goop dot org, not goop dot net. Whatever
you do. T me from experience, don't do not go
to goop dot net for your jade eggs. Oh boy,
(07:35):
if these walls could if these vaginal walls could talk,
U is that is that? I just made the great?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
That is fantastic. I wish this author had said that.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Well, they didn't hire me at people dot com, and
they're gonna I'm gonna they're gonna rude the day they're
going to rule the deck. Uh, And I'm uses a
jadegg attached to string to physically lift objects with her vagiene.
She has lifted everything from tropical fruit to a surfboard. So, Kurt,
this might come in handy for you. Maybe get a
butt egg.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
If I was going to go for the two objects
that we go from, too, I wouldn't have guessed tropical fruit,
and I wouldn't have guessed surfboard.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Surfboard especially. Tropical fruit could be a banana.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Could be anything, could be a dragon, fruit, could be
a kiwi.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
I'm pretty confident my butt could lift a kiwi right now.
I'm very confident.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Hmmm oh a kiwi? Yeah yeah, I don't think my
butterhole could lift a butthole.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
No, you got to train for months for that. She
can lift up to ten pounds using just her vaginal
muscles seeing weight.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
So it's not her standing up and holding it is that, Okay, Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It is, But she's she's the whole, hold the whole,
the grip on the eggs. Yeah yeah, yeah, exactly, copy
in her special place, seeing and feeling the difference I
began incorporating the teaching into my work as a sex
and relationship coach. Anami says. The benefits include Again this
is the third time this has been stated. Gabrielle really
(09:12):
wants to drive this point home. Benefits include more orgasms
and increased libido, elimination of urinary incontinence. That seems good,
Easier childbirth. I'm not even commenting on that. Who knows,
improved and tightened skin. I have clients stop using botox
for overall confidence. I see this as every woman's god
(09:34):
given right, she says, and that is the last sentence
in this And you.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Know, lady is awesome.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
It is her god given right.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
This is, i you know, very fun to have around.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Kim Anami. I'm going to look you up on Instagram
and just see if, I mean, is she a good
guest or would that be a major mistake. Only time
will tell.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
That's a great idea.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Well, we have to do the heavy lifting in the episode,
is what I'm saying. But good for her, she figured
out something that works for her. She sounds like she's
probably fun of cocktail parties.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Oh hell yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
If this doesn't work out, she can always I don't know,
become the world's greatest smuggler.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I guess, yeah, yeah, more like a circus, but uh
not a child circus.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Nope. Did I ever tell the story When I was
at Hampshire College, and oh, I am sure I did so.
There when there was Lollapalooza, there was this traveling circus,
freak show circus that would travel with Lollapalooza, and one
of the guys went to Hampshire College and his skill
was he could balance. I must have told this. He
(10:48):
could balance a push mower running, so a lawn mower
that was running on his chin, and then you could
toss heads of lettuce into it into the blades.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So for those around the world, im that I remember that,
I remember, yeah, I remember used to live things.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
So they used to lift a car battery with like
nipple rings. It was pretty intense. Well we'll look it up,
but one of the performers went to Hampshire College. For
those who are not in the United States, or honestly
those who were not Massachusetts, Hampshire College is a very interesting,
extremely open minded, progressive school where you could make at
(11:28):
least when I was there, you could make your own majors,
you could kind of go be the weirdest version of
yourself you wanted. They didn't have freshman, sophomore, junior, senior.
They had level one, two, three, and they didn't really
have grades. They just had a group of professors who
you would present what you wanted to do and your
final projects, and they would just say, okay, you've done it,
and move you up the latter. Famously, one art student
(11:51):
freaked out and just stapled all of their clothes to
their entire apartments so that their bedroom was just all
of their clothes and they graduated with I degree. So
that is the school I'm talking about. I did a
film there when I was a freshman with my friend
Dan called Surreality Bound. It was not a surreal film
when we started, but it was so bad that he
(12:11):
edited it and colorized it to make it a surreal film.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Of course, that's that's that's an easy answer there.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yes, And while filming that on so you.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Were just buddies with him. He went to school there.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
I met this man one time. He went to school there,
and the director of that film was like, Oh, you
don't know this guy. I was like, no, I don't
go to school here. I don't know anybody. I took
the bus to get here and the guy pulled start
lawndner and bounced it on his chin. And then people
were throwing things, handfuls of stuff into his lawner on
(12:44):
his chin just in the quad.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Is that part of the movie. No, he was just
nothing to do with the movie, I think, And it
doesn't involve this specific skill because this is the movie
we want to see.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Oh dude. There was a woman that was the ad
on that movie, who very very attractive, very beautiful woman,
and she was dating the director and she had this
British accent. And then when we wrapped and we were
all hanging out and we're all drinking, she turns to
me and she goes, I'm directing a porno and I
actually am not British, and I go okay. And so
(13:22):
she had been faking a British accent while at school
and then she directed a student pornography film. I was
not in that. I did not star in that. But
that is amazing. This was my freshman year, first semester
that it was like welcome to the real world, little
boy alone.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
That is amazing. It was the Jim Rose sideshow circus.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's the one.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Jim definitely seems like a guy who's been canceled since then.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Yeah, we're gonna we're not going to dread into that territory.
But yes, it is an educational podcast. And there was
a time where they were tour with music festivals nine
Inch Nails or whatever, and yeah, one of the performers
was on campus and he said, do you like Pearl Cham.
I go yes, I go sure, I like everybody likes them.
(14:10):
They're fine. Yeah there and he goes, I just met
Eddie Vedder last week backstage at Lallapalooza and he threw
an apple into my lawnmower and I go, oh, that's cool,
and he goes, you know what's so weird about Eddie
Vedder's He goes, how are you? And I was like, yeah,
I'm good, I'm good, and Eddie Vedder just looks at
me and he goes, no, no, no, how are you?
(14:30):
And he said they had like a fifteen minute, very deep,
heart to heart, like life changing conversation backstage after after
having the lawnmower going on his chin, no how are you?
And then he said, like Eddie was just like welling
up at the eyes looking dead into this guy's soul,
and they they had a nice chat.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Oh man, And the thing that he learned about that
was he'll never forget Eddie Vetter's words.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
What does he say it Yellow Lead Better? I don't
even know whatever that song is. I don't know what
he says. I'm never going to look it up either.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I love that story so very very much, dude.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
I was not planning on tell that one. That was
like a maybe I did before. Who knows, We've told
so many at this point, who freaking knows.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
It's good, you know what it's it's for for me
being on this podcast. It's good that my memory is
just like I have a fish bowl memory. Every time
I come back around, I'm shocked and surprised to see
the you.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Know what, a good way to live a life.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
I'm excited about it. I enjoy it, and I loved
Jim Rows is maybe doing great right now.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
I was. I went as Girls Gone Wild that October
that freshman or Halloween, where my costume was I dressed
up like a woman in full makeup, wig, everything, and
then I had a halter your top pulled up and
then I'd made a cardboard cut out that said girls
Gone Wild across it because you weren't allowed, you know,
they were blanket out for the commercials. And I went
to the Hampshire party and that was a very popular costume.
(16:06):
Not because anybody's a hornball there. They're actually the opposites
that British fake British director. They were just like, yes,
make fun of it, satirize it. We need to spoof it,
we need to defeat this. Photos of that one somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Also they were like, we like visual representation of censor
bars on you.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Yes, we've never seen that. We love cross dressing. I
was like, me too, sign me up.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
It is Scottie.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
You got it, buddy.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
This dog was thought to be blind. Turns out he
was just ignoring everyone.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
That's my guy, this is my guy.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
And there's a photograph of him ignoring the person taking
the camp taking the picture.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I love it so much.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
This was in ola dot com.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Okay, I found it already.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
What, Oh my god, that's eighteen year old me.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Girls Gone Wild Hampshire College got Marti Gras beads on.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
It's a great it's a great outfit. Well, also it
feels pornographic because you're such a small child in that photograph.
I mean, I am eighteen, you're eighteen. It feels it
feels wrong looking.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
At it, and yet so right here it is.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
This was written by Danielle Nira. She's a senior writer
at ola dot com. Meet Don Luis, a six year
old pup who is living proof that sometimes we just
need to focus on ourselves. This calm dog went viral
after Fundacion sent Us Patitas, an animal rescue in Chile,
shared his story on social media. It all started when
(17:47):
their team grew concerned about one of their rescue dogs,
a calm and collected pup night named Don Luise. He
didn't seem to respond to anything around him, toys, people, movement,
and staff worried he might be He is such a
cute dog he looks exactly like Zelda. They booked him
a vet appointment to get answers. What they didn't expect
(18:07):
was that he was not blind, but was in fact
ignoring everyone a fantastic As the veterinarian examined him, Don
Louis quickly proved he could see just fine. A video
of the appointment shows him reacting perfectly to movement when
he felt like it. That moment, equal parts adorable and hilarious,
instantly went viral. He is such a cute dog, Oh
my god. Across social platforms, online users were obsessed, commons
(18:30):
flooded and celebrating his energy. Quote a whole mood, quote
me on Mondays, quote patron saint of boundaries. In just
a few days, Don Louis went from a mellow rescue
pup to a relatable, four legged icon. Fans of the
dog took to Instagram to share some stories about their
own pets, proving that Don Louis is not the only
dog who wants to have his space. At times, I
thought my dog was deaf when she came home because
(18:51):
she did not answer, And when I took her to
the vet, I was told she was healthy. One person right,
So that's a good story. Despite his Internet fame, Don
Louis still looking for a forever home, and this is
why he is on this podcast right now. According to
the team at sent Us Petitas, he's healthy, suite, full
of personality, independent and vibing in his own space. Quote
He's the kind of dog who will love you quietly.
(19:14):
He just wants someone to respect his style.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Yeah, So if you live in Chile. Go to foundation
sent Us Patitas and get this doggie.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
I mean, what a dream dog. It's just an indifferent
dog that you know. That's fantastic. I would love that
so much, Kurt, how many, speaking of ignoring the outside world,
how many unopened emails are in your primary inbox?
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Would you like a number?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yes? I would, okay, because I can tell you mine
right now. Zero. I open everything as soon as I
get it, and it is the fain of my existence.
And ninety seven I would I would crack in pieces
and blow away with the lightest of breezes if I
(20:03):
had four but animals, let us know how many unopened
unread emails are in your primary primary box and just
just send it to the Bonanz podcast. Well, either can
gmail it to us, or you can do it on
Instagram if you want to take a picture of it
(20:24):
without you know, sharing your personal information of how many
unread and tag us in the stories. We will share it.
But again, don't dox yourself. How many unopened emails unread?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
I wonder what that is, right, because it's definitively the
world skews one or the other.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Right.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Is it an ability to tolerate messiness or is it
a desire for cleanliness? You know, like, which is it?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Like?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
You know, like I want to know what it signifies.
I definitely think people who read every email like yourself
are far more successful in life.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
I read well. I don't know if that's true. I
actually think people that prioritize other things might be way
more successful. But I, yeah, I have zero. I actually
delete emails and text messages and stuff like if I'm
texting with somebody that is not a part of my
regular life, I'll just delete those because I'm like, if
I'm scrolling back looking for a conversation or a photo,
(21:26):
you and I head over text, I want to be
able to find you right away. So if somebody I
kind of know hits me, I'm like, I'm in LA
for the week, can we get dinner? And I'm like no,
I'll just delete it because I just don't want clutter
at all.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, I now just rely on the search function for everything.
Like my desktop is just thousands of files and I
don't honestly find it helpful to like organize them because
you spend so much time organizing them because new things
always come in and so you're always spending time moving
things from one place to another, when it's really you
(21:58):
just go into a search thing and you know what
words exist in the document.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Let's true.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Just do that and they just all pop up for you.
So it's like you're filing on the fly as opposed
to filing premeditatively.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah, Like I am curious. And the reason I even
thought about this from the jump is about god, three
or four years ago. It was over with a friend
of ours who's a comedian, and she opened her laptop
and she had like fifteen thousand unready emails and she
was complaining about like not having a manager at the
agent at the time. I'm like, I bet there's one
in there that reached out to you. Like I never
(22:33):
have fomo about people's experiences, but like I have a
fear of missing out if somebody's like, hey, do you
want to work on this, and I'm like, yes, I do.
Like I also would like to see if there's a
correlation between airplane aisle people and airplane window people and
the number and this because I would guess that window
people are have unread emails.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Oh but I'm an ale person. See, I'm an aile person.
I bet you there's no correlation there, damn.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
And see that's that's how we solve every problem.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I think ale stuff is just about how much you pee.
I want to be able to pee one hundred times
a flight. I like taking a walk. I like stretching
my legs.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Aisles by far the best buy.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
The tonnel Isle's the best, baby. But I mean like
looking out the window.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
But nah, I've seen it all before. What's to see?
Just fields? Yeah, I've seen the Grand Canyon. Big whoop.
It's a hole. Uh yeah right, It's like the coolest
thing in the world. When you see it, you're like, damn,
nice work, babe, and Paul Bunyan. I'll tease the sending
(23:43):
some thumbs ups. This one's for you. Kurt wah Wah
super fan goes viral for collecting every receipt number from
zero to nine hundred and ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yes, I like that.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
It took so long. Okay, let's do some thumb I.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Would like to say that first off, Olive is a
huge fan of wah Wah A big Ready. We went
on a trip and we were coming home from the
trip and we crossed over into New Jersey. This is
after this child has lived in New Jersey for a
month and a half and she just goes, ah, sweet
(24:24):
sweet New Jersey, happy to be back.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I think this move was a good move for the
whole brown older clan. And what do they have at
wah Wah for kids? Like giant fries or something.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Oh, they and cheese soup. They have chicken fingers, they
have hot dogs. They get it all. Whilea is really
a magical place.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
God, but it's expanding and it gets to it in
the article. But first the thumbs ups. Yeah, Alison wants
the thumbs up all federal workers, including her name redacted partner,
who have been worried about being fired every single day
for months and months. Federal workers do God's work. Alson
says this is coming from an atheist, from things like
(25:09):
making sure drinking water is safe to drink and swim in,
to helping students succeed, to rescuing lost hikers, to curing cancer.
So everyone should give them a huge thumbs up until
and they should all get all of their jobs back. Yes,
I agree, sums up to you, Elison and your partner.
Hope you're both working. Kate Rickers wants to give a
(25:31):
huge thumbs up to her partner and her kids. Her
partner just finished his first graphic novel and published it.
It is the extraordinary story of punctuation superheroes with lots
of humor and heart. It's called The Punctuators Question Quest
Nice that could be an Olive special honestly, Oh yeah,
(25:51):
and then I really like this, so congratulations to I'm
guessing we'll just call mister Rickers for the Punctuators, you
can find on Amazon. They are also developing a story
based on her son's concept for a character called orb
Bro who uses palindromes orb Bro. I love Orb bro O. Kate.
(26:15):
Let us know when Orbro is ready. I'd love to
see the art on that and go support mister Rickers
and the Punctuators.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Thumbs up.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Here's a great one. Tyler Black wants to thumb himself
up from abstaining for alcohol from alcohol for over one
year after twenty years of alcohol abuse disorder, and he
also wants to give some mega thumbs up to his
awesome support team, his mother Donna, his sister Raymie I'm
guessing Ramie, his brother Tyson, and his great sister in
(26:45):
law LEXI. Thumbs up to you, Tyler over a year
of alcohol free. That is is very very very impressive.
Nice work, and let's do one more here. This is
a good one. Jess seven wants to thumb up her
friends who own Charm City Books in Baltimore. Hell. Yes,
(27:06):
Charm City Books is an independent bookstore. They do tons
of community events and are all around great people. You
can bring your dogs in there. You can order books
through their website and if they don't have it, they
will get any book you want for you. So support
local bookstores Charm City Books in Baltimore, And Jess, if
you're still a ban animal and you still listen to this,
(27:27):
I will absolutely visit Charm City Books before Christmas this year.
I'm going to be in Maryland and I'm going to
buy books from my whole entire family from Charm City Books.
That's awesome and finest.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
There is something, there's something that we have lost with
Amazon one day next day prime delivery, which is that
idea of being like, oh I really want this book, yeah,
and going and it's not there, and then special ordering
it and then getting the call that it's available, and
then going in picking it up. It becomes so much
(28:02):
more important to you and I feel like you're you're
more liable to like go immediately sit down and read
it because of that, because that used to be the
experience of it all. And now recently because we're in
this town where the library is kind of under construction,
it's like a very small amount of books that are available,
so you always have to like put stuff on hold
(28:24):
for the kids, And so the kids will put stuff
on hold and then we'll go get it, and it's
like voracious, like there's a book available at the libraries
to like walk over there and get it and then
they read it immediately. It's like very exciting.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah, yes, that is a lost art form. That's also
I don't do instacart or no shots fired on those
nice people doing that for people. Well, I know it's
a real necessity for a lot of people. But like
I like going the grocery store because I just like
tooting around.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
I like walking and looking.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
I know, sometimes they get a cart just for me
and I don't even feel up the cart. I just
kind of like seeing what's out there. I like new things.
I like to learn what people are up to right
now at their local Galson's. And I did buy this.
They have Halloween cheese, Kurt, what I have some delicious
sharp British cheddar cheese shape like a coffin. The wax
(29:19):
around it is black. It is shaped like a coffin.
I was like, this is coming home. I cut that
soccer open last night. Delicious. Oh. I've never seen coffin
cheese before either. I had to go to the cracker.
I oult to buy crackers for it.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
The coffin crackers cheese rinds really are the coffins for milk.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yeah, and nobody's talking about it. And finally someone has
the courage to speak truth to power. Alexis Doster sent
this in Maybe Doster Sorry, Alexis love the name Alexis.
Though this was in New Jersey dot Com again A
curdiebe Special written by Rebecca Heath best in the biz.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
I probably will meet her someday. Being in New Jersey,
it's a very small state. You know where wah wah

No clue, zero idea.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It is the name. It is the native name for
Canadian geese because it's the noise they make. Wow Wow, I.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Like it even more now.
Speaker 2 (30:19):

(30:45):
we go. A wah wah. Super fan goes viral for
collecting receipts for every order number zero, two, nine, and
ninety nine Tyler M. Gersey in Tyler Ghersey in twenty
two of Barnegat who visits Barnet Barnegut, Thank you Barnegut
who visits the convenience store chain three or four times
(31:07):
per day? Yeah maybe, Now says that's a super bad
Now says his viral collection started as a complete accident.
Back in twenty twenty one. Quote Tyler says, I just
had like a collection order slips growing in my car's glovebox,
just because I wasn't throwing away for some reason. Tyler said,
(31:27):
As the collection got bigger, I just kind of kept
holding on to them. When the collection out grew his glovebox,
Tyler said he started storing the slips in his bedroom drawer.
As his stash continued to grow, he challenged himself.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
So where did it go from there? Scottie, I want
to know where the stash was store.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, you have to know where he's keeping his receipts from.
Wah wah. I mean, it's a funnier thing if it
just started overflowing out of his car where he's like,
don't roll the windows down. That's number forty seven. His
stash continued to grow, he challenged himself to find every
possible Deli receipt number they make. I had a couple hundred,
(32:06):
and I was like, well, okay, I got to complete
the collection. See how long this will take? He said.
I would spend time sorting them, putting them in numerical order.
I just kind of ran with it until the very end.
I like this attitude. Didn't even really want to do it,
just kind of he fell into it. She gotta do
something in this life.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
You gotta do something. Look, he's got an article about
him on New Jersey dot com. You're the most interesting
person in Barnegut.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Hundreds of thousands of people will hear this podcast. Tyler
Urizenian is very famous. Now I had a couple hundred.
I was like, okay, God, I can believe the collection. So,
Tyler said the most challenging part of his endeavor was
securing the last ten numbers of his collection, which took
him eight months. Towards the end of the challenge, she
recruited a friend to help through social media. When Tyler
(32:56):
found out the last number to complete his collection, he said,
he felt relief.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
What was the last number? M It goes from zero
to nine hundred and ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Yeah, two thousand. So he has all of those and
there's a photo. They're all laid out in order. There's
almost one thousand of them. Finally, he said, I can
stop and have some free time. I know, it's like
self inflicted Tyler.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Tyler, Yeah, Tyler, come on, buddy, Tyler said, you could
have free time before this was done.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I think this sounds like you only had free time.
That's just the definition of free time. Time three to
four whah wah visits a day? Ok Uh. Tyler said.
The slip sat in his drawart for about five months
until he decided to layout his entire collection into americal
order and snap a photo on social media. In July,
(33:50):
he posted it on x for his fifteen followers, not
expecting to receive much attention. Instead, the post quickly guarded
four million views and received comments from wah wah, this
is the level of dedication we're talking about.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
This is awesome. He had fifteen followers.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Fifteen followers, and four million people saw it.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
That's so fun.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
I wasn't really expecting anybody to see it, just like
ten people. It was definitely really overwhelming because all of
a sudden, my phone was blowing up. Since going viral
on social media, he claims he's been flooded with interview
requests and messages from past acquaintances, I mean past acquaintances.
The guy's twenty two years old. Yeah, how far back
we go in here? Six years four year old. Yeah,
we were in preschool together. You've done some pretty impressive
(34:34):
things in the last eighteen years. Uh. He's no longer
holding on to his Deli receipts insane. He definitely should be.
How much could a thousand receipts take up?
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Like I mean, I mean six inches by four inches?
Speaker 1 (34:53):
Yeah, an envelope, a Manila envelope. It's fun thing to
hold on too. Took you eight months or something. I
guess I actually took him. He's no longer holding onto
the deliveracys. He doesn't intend on reducing his Wahwa trips
anytime soon. So Kurt, you're probably going to meet Tyler
before he meet Rebecca Heath. During a typical day, he
starts his morning with a coffee from wah Wah. Then
(35:14):
he visits the store for launch, and he often gets
dinner there too. His favorite item on the menu is
the mac and cheese, which Kurt already said is fantastic,
and he says it pairs nicely with their sandwiches. I
bet it does. He's visited over one hundred Wahwah stores,
but he doesn't have a favorite location. He says the
(35:35):
consist the consistency across the stores is part of what
keeps him coming back so frequently. Everything's familiar, Kurt, Everything's
consistent no matter what location I go to. The employees
are really friendly. With one completed Wahwah challenge under his belt,
he's now set his sights on another endeavor. Snapping a
photo in front of every Wahwah location in the United States.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
All right, there we go to get the next goal.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Yeah, this guy is a banana boy in training. Really,
he's like banana boy number nine and ninety nine wah
Wah has. Just take a wild guess how many they
just have a New Jersey, Kurt, Okay, this is all
right's it's an educational podcast.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
It is an educational podcast. I'm going to guess just
a New Jersey, just in New Jersey. I'm going to
say one hundred and forty eight locations.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
You know, that's a really good guess. It's it's two
hundred and eighty eight, but I think one hundred and
forty eight is a good guess.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
And then while the chain is currently operating one thousand
and fifty stores, what it has one thousand and fifty
stores in eight states Maryland?
Speaker 2 (36:48):
That oh really wow.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
It has plans to continue expanding throughout the country, including Kentucky, Indiana,
and oh Ohio. So I don't know, let's give him
Banana of the Week. Yeah, Banana week Nan of a week.
I loved Tyler, Guy yoursy and Guy reason, your reason.
You are Banana of the weekend. Though, I can't pronounce
your last name, but good for you for having a
(37:10):
dumb idea and taking it to the extreme. That is
what bananas is all about.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
My life in it was like a sweet spot, probably
thirteen fourteen years old sure, where just gaggles of kids
would come to my house on like a Friday night.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
And I don't know why I was my house. I
guess because my mom was like chill about just like
having kids over. And we would walk from my house
to wah Wah and that was probably a I don't know,
like a mile and a half each way.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
What a dream come true.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
And it was just delightful. We would I mean, you know,
we would walk there. We would smoke cigarettes along the way, yes,
and then get there buy more cigarettes, and then buy
ice cream, but get a big pint of Ben and Jerry's. Oh,
walk back with a big pine of Ben and Jerry's
eating it and smoking cigarettes along the way. Jesus a dear,
(38:07):
like those trips are probably the reason I now live
in New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
That sounds so heavenly to me. It was right. I
wrote a paper in college. It was like a final
for some communication class. It was like in a personal
communication that heaven. It was what you described that your
childhood is heaven and everything after is meaningless. But like
that there is no afterlife, there is a happy childhood
is heaven, and everything else is just the epilogue. Everything
(38:35):
else is just wasting time. And when I hear you
say that, I feel like you just defended my thesis
that like, oh yeah, you heaven for you when when
you go up to that big cosmic banana in the
sky could just be you at twelve years old with
a group of friends, eating ice cream, smoke and cigarettes
to take a walk on a hot Jersey night. That
(38:56):
is like poetic, so beautiful.
Speaker 2 (38:59):
So so pleasant. But I love that idea, you know.
I love the idea of like this now life being
the heaven. Do you know what I mean? That the
whole idea of this Christian concept that you and I
book grew up heavily with, of like you have to
(39:20):
be nice to people, you have to be kind so
in order to go to.
Speaker 1 (39:25):
Heaven to be rewarded.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
Yeah, yeah right, But I really think it. What it
means is like in order to go to heaven here,
like to make heaven here, is just to be nice
and kind to people and then that's how you actually
make the heaven. It's here, there's nothing after it. It's agree.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
I agree. I'm with you one hundred percent on that.
I've told my best friend when I was at age
like eleven twelve, same thing he was. I've talked about
him a couple of times. He would have the weirdest
and funniest eating habits. He was the one that used
to make cinnamon toast. That he would take an entire
level of white bread and toast every single piece and
then butter it and put cinnamon on it and then
(40:03):
re stack it cut diagonally into a tower of cinnamon toast.
And we used to stand around his parents' kitchen table
and just three of us would just eat entire loaf
of cinnamon toast. It's fun. Crazy. I would go over
his house and he would buy a thing of strawberries
and take out a bag of Domino sugar and he
would cut the strawberries in half and just dip them
(40:24):
in the sugar and eat and live rest in peace, Kyle.
But he was he was fun. He was an indulgent guy.
I think we could say that. But he was definitely
my deepest best friend back then, and when we would
go to our version of wah Wah, which was either
Royal Farms or Highs. I don't even know if Highs
is still around, but Royal Farms is definitely still around.
(40:46):
We would pull our money, so usually three bucks four bucks,
and we would buy what are called ranch fries, which
are just like wedge fries, just big thick ones, always those.
Speaker 2 (40:54):
There, and they almost they have almost like the fried
chicken coating on them.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Yes, And I can only remember what I'm leading to is,
there have only been a few times in my life
where I've had a food that I can actually remember
the exact moment when I had it, and it was
like life altering. And we go to Royal Farms. We
rode our bikes there. It was about the same, probably
a twenty minute bike ride, and we park didn't even
have to like up lock up the bikes back then.
(41:20):
What a time to be alive. And we go in
and the new product was ice cream Snickers bars. We
had never seen him, we had never heard him, had
the way in those freezer chests, chess freezers or whatever.
And Kyle opens it up and he unwraps and he
takes a bite and he just looks at me, his
eyes go wide. It was just like, oh, and he
hands it to me. I mean we were best friends.
(41:40):
I take a bike and I remember the exact moment
I ate in ice cream snickers. It was like, how
did they do it? What mad scientists in the lab
figured out how to make something good even like just
fantastic And yeah, his face he just like looked up
at me like I've discovered the cured to cancer and uh,
(42:04):
I'll never ever. It was like such a great moment
that we were like, we ate it before we paid
for and then it was like that became our routine.
You get some ranch fries, you get an ice cream snicker.
Speaker 2 (42:14):
Well that sounds great.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
That was my heaven. That was my heaven on earth.
What a delight it really was. I'll tease this.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
Into a out of here.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
An out of here, yeah wrapper uptight?
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Uh here it is.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
Let's get an ice cream snicker sponsor on this exactly right.
We love you, ice cream Snickers. Think about it.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
Couple find after bust lane camera photographs text on woman's top.
Oh dude, I saw this fun.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
This is so good and.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
I'm sent in by SB also as known as Bella
Balls Bella Balls Bella. This was an independent and written
by further Shaw.
Speaker 1 (42:58):
O Shaw good name besting the Bees.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
A couple were mistakenly find after a camera mistook the
writing on a woman's top for their car number plate.
David and Paulin Knight from Surrey received a fine of
ninety pounds from Bath Council for being in a bus lane.
Despite not having been near the city and looking at
the photographic evidence provided by the council, the couple found
there was no vehicle in the CCTV image, but a
(43:24):
woman wearing a T shirt printed with the word knitter.
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Dude, I saw this. It is so funny.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
She's just a knitter guy. She loves to knit. And
they were walking in the bus lane. The couple's vehicle registration,
which reads k n I nine ter knitter, was mistaken
as the passer by in the T shot.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
Just a woman walking on the bus lane.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
This woman loves knitting so much. She has a shirt
with it, she has a plate with it. She loves
to knit.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
It's so good. She has sort of a you know,
she's she It is a wide sweater. The front of
her sweater is pretty wide. And when I saw it,
I laughed so hard because that photo is pretty clearly
a person, but it is about as wide as a
license plate across her.
Speaker 2 (44:13):
Check, probably exactly, and the height of the letters is
the height of like a British license plate.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
Oh my gosh, that is so funny. I'm talking about
framing it. If you're not going to frame your wah
wah DELI receipts that photo, I would show everybody that photo.
Speaker 2 (44:33):
I'm so bummed out that I never framed my my,
my speeding ticket with the big smile, or for making
a left. I think I was making a left.
Speaker 1 (44:41):
I mean it's probably somewhere, probably on on the Banana's Instagram,
I think. So we'll have to go back and find it.
That seems like put it on a Christmas ball. That's
an all timer. That's your only experience summed up a
ticket but also having a good time.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
