Speaker 1 (00:00):
Could it be you want me to go today first?
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Oh? I would love that, you know how I love that.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
We started to do this one at the end of
our video episode, but you know, we just gave him
that juicy sweet headline then bailed on out. So let's
do it on the main pop Oh yeah, sorry, patrons,
Oliver David you sent this in. Thank you. Oliver David
Man discovers he bought his own stolen car.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
I'm so excited to hear the details of this. You
know what, it's just like, you know, drive it like
it's stolen on this episode of.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Bananas and Joy.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Bananas, guys, gals, non binary pals, Welcome to Bananas.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I am kerb Broneller.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I am banana Boy number two Scotty Landis. Thank you
for listening to what we call It is proclaimed far
and wide from the mountaintops. The silliest little podcast there
ever was these We are the fun good Boys. We're
the feel good boys. We're the fun good boys. Fun
and Field were feeling good. And when you're feeling good,
you're having fun. So you just let all your problems,
(01:32):
all the stresses of real life, just let them fall
right off your shoulder and soar into the air with us,
into the strange news.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
I find that when I'm running late or to do
a bananas and I'm stressed out about getting all the
stuff I need to get done, the moment we start,
I relax. When it's over, I feel better. It is
truly a joy to do. Thank you so much, Scottie
for making time here. You are at the Madonna Inn.
(02:01):
No one can see them, but I can see him
looking good. How long are you there?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
For? U? Through the whole weekend and then just you know,
just just felt like a little change of scenery got
a lot of show business town. Tinseltown, USA shuts down
pretty much the entire summer for those who are thinking
about entering television or movies. Kurt and I can tell
you this from over a decade of experience. Yeah, there's
(02:26):
a window for pitching shows and selling TV shows and movies,
and it usually starts around February, as early as January fifteenth,
but usually really more like February. And then everybody pitches, pitches, pitches,
and you try to sell, sell, sell in March, in April,
and then right around mid May, all the gatekeepers, the
studio heads, all the higher ups in the business. They
go on really nice vacations. They go to the Hampton's,
(02:49):
they go to ted, they go to all.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
And they're annoying to have to do their job.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
At and then they don't come back. They say in August,
but they don't only come back until after and then
from September till beout halloweens until Halloween.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah, exactly. And also, like you always have to take
into consideration. This is something that I've never seen in
any other industry. If if Labor Day is on September first,
you would assume that business would start up again September second,
you would be incorrect. It will be a full other
week before people start doing anything because they have to
(03:26):
have one week at work to like, I don't know,
like just not do anything. And everyone else is just
a freelance person who's just waiting to get their thing heard.
They're just waiting for the check, you're just waiting for
the pitch, you're just waiting to do it. Yeah, and
then they'll work from the second week in September till
I would say October twenty ninth, Yeah, and then that's
(03:49):
that is it until January fifteenth.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
And I believe there's two very popular Jewish holidays in
that timeframe.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Also, yeah, that'll just take a big, huge chunk.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Yeah, So between all of it, basically you have about
six weeks of your entire career to sell. What will
make or break the fact that you can eat and
feed yourself. So just take that into account before you've
signed up for that film degree. Anyway, I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling great, and I was just gearing up. Yeah,
(04:19):
just getting ready because I'm going to really hit September
hard and just try to sell sales, sell sell, sell,
sell sell.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Oh yeah, baby, I'm excited. That's great.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah, man, how you doing? What's up over there? Is? It?
Does it rain and thunderstorm at three pm? Every day?
Speaker 3 (04:32):
So it was and when I got here, honestly, it
was crazy. June fourteenth, when I arrived on the East coast,
it was cold for like three days. It was like
in the sixties, and I was like, what is going on?
And then it hard changed into summer. But then it
was like a hard change in the summer that then
would come with three pm thunderstorms almost every day, which
(04:55):
was I loved, you know, it was just like soap,
A cool.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Kid it's the best. How about firefly and you got
those things?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Oh, we gotton around, We got so many fireflies.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
But recently it's been low humidity, no rain, just sunny
days every single day. It's been an absolute delight, and
I cannot wait for September.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
I'm very excited about October as well.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I can't believe my kids are gonna have like a
Halloween where it's a little nip in the air.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
They're gonna, oh, they're gonna get Yeah, they're gonna get
walloped by four season. Living Jersey gets the most four
seasons of anyone, It.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Really really does. So I'm very excited.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
That is thrilling and I'm glad to hear it. Do
you want me to just dive right in and get
into the story.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Oh yeah, baby.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
I mean, we can't just talk about soup for twenty
six minutes.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I mean we could.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
I want to start a secondary podcast called just Soup Baby.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I know that we got more feedback from that episode
than any other episode we ever did, including one guy
that said, I was laughing so hard you guys down
at my dashboard and realized you'd only been talking about
super twenty six minutes whoops, and people were like mad,
They're like, oh, you forgot this one, And I'm like, well,
I didn't know Kurt was going to ask me my
top four suit, so I I just was firing from
(06:16):
the hip. Anyways, Oliver David sent this and you can
send in any story you want, but strange news and
funny is preferable to The Bananas Podcast at gmail dot com.
Or we have an Instagram that is on your phone.
It's an application and it's the Bananas Podcast on Instagram.
Man discovers he bought his own stolen calls a wow one.
(06:37):
This is BBC. That's real. Written by Best in the
Business Shanaze con Oh shanaz Ooh, I feel for you.
Shanna's con. A man who bought a twenty thousand pound
car so let's say twenty six thousand dollars something like
that American Bucks to replace the old one that he
(06:57):
had stolen, discovered he had accidentally bought back his own
stolen car. Uh alwen, how would you say? E w
A n Kurt Evan, e e w give it to me?
Y e w e w A N you win? Yeah
you ewen yeah ewen Ewan McGregor that's how he spells
his name, right, Yeah, that's something.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Hey, listen, we call him e Won. I bet you
he doesn't listen.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Yeah, that's right. Erawon Valentine, thirty six from Solely Hill
or Solohole woke up. I mean they're just hitting me
with it. Welcome on twenty eight February to find his car,
a black Honda Civic, had disappeared from his driveway overnight.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Dude, from his driveway.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
That sucks, bummer. Yeah, I had a Bosso had his
car stolen out of his driveway and we were like, dude,
what happened? And he's like, I left my keys in it.
So he just left his on the car with his
keys in his.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I've done it.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I've done it multiple times and luckily it hasn't been stolen. Yes, dude,
does what when when you call insurance about that, are
they just like, no, we're not going to pay for
it if you left?
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Who knows? Who knows? They invented private property over there,
so they probably are like no, I'm terribly sorry, No sorry,
Erawon Valentine. After informing police and his insurers, he started
looking for a replacement. So I didn't say if they
paid him or not court. He wanted to find a
replacement twenty sixteen type R model that sounds like a
(08:28):
very nice car, and found one that looked identical about
seventy miles away. After he bought it, he noticed similar
items in the vehicle. It was then mister Valentine realized
he had bought his own stolen car. He also found
his previous address in the car's sat NAV, so he
turned on his car navigation and it's at home and
it was his home.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I mean, so do they not have VIN numbers? And
maybe they don't have VIN numbers in the UK? Seems
to be seems to be like the first thing he
would do is check your VIN on the car that
looks exactly like yours that was stolen.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah, but you know what, Yeah, that's true. Jumping. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
I like the way ir one does things. He jumps
right in, you know what I mean, He's like me.
He doesn't wait and check to see if it's a
good idea to buy a house right now.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
He just does it without thinking.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
That's right. And look at you go. You've still got
all your arms and legs, fingers, You're still upright and mobile.
You've probably jumped into so much water in your life
without checking the seat on takidding me.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
I think the worst one was I know, I really am.
The worst one was jumping into the school Girl River
in Philadelphia at like three in the morning. Oh yeah,
and it was like maybe ten feet to get out
covered in barnacles.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Oh no, it was real rough.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
It was real rough getting out there.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
But uh. You also had an Australian wedding incident.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Into you don't have to get into no, I'll get
into it. This was at a wedding. It was at
a wedding. What a fucking Australian wedding this was. Oh
it was at at a wedding in Australia where they
did not serve dinner. They just served appetizers and just drink.
(10:19):
It was like we were there for like eight hours
and just and I was so drunk and eventually I
just took all my clothes off and slipped into this
lagoon that was like that we were We were on
a lagoon, which is also a crazy bad idea in Australia.
There's just crocketiles and everything, and so I'm swimming in
this lagoon, yes, sir, with like this this like with
(10:46):
the with my girlfriend's brother's wife. Were like swimming in
this lagoon and then I go and then you know
lagoons on the other side is the ocean, right and famously, Yeah,
so I pop out of the lagoon in my underwear
and then I run across this like short spit of
(11:06):
sand and I just see the ocean.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
The ocean's right there, and I just dive right in.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
And as I'm mid jump, the the wave just drains
back and I jumped right onto just hard volcanic rock.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
My glasses fall off. Oh boy, they fall into the ocean.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Scottie good.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
And I just immediately reached my hand down and there there.
This is nighttime, obviously, and I happen to pull my
hand up with it.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
But then miracle just bleeding.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Get back in the lagoon, of course, smart pouring blood
out of my shoulder and my arm.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Way less sharks than the legend.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Let every animal know in the lagoon, I'm there.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
To be eating.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
And then and then went back to the to the wedding,
get dressed nice and yeah the next morning, just blood
dripping through my shirt at the at the next morning breakfast,
not one of mine.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
It is a class of Australia's wedding.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Not proud of that.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Not proud of that because I dump it jump into
a lot of water. I was consider it myself to
be pretty safe when I jump into the water, but
not then didn't do it right.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Not nine hundred beers DP now two hundred beers debatable,
nine hundred beers feet first guys, he told Erewhon told
BBC that he was gutted when his car was stole
and he was determined to replace it with the same model. Quote,
it was sort of a midlife crisis car and you
don't get many of this, that's a positives, so it's
(12:47):
pretty determined to get a replaced before one day I
have to get sort of a family car, he said.
I spotted one that was identical, same color, same year,
same slightly obnoxious exhaust system on as well. It fit
the bill precisely what it did. This is also sort
of like those those weird people in life that date
(13:09):
the same person a different same person. It really is
fascinating when you see that happen and they're like, oh
I broke up with Becca, Oh okay, this is my
new girlfriend. This is Rebecca, And they look exactly the
same You're like, boy, you got it type Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
And also wouldn't you.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I mean, just like, I've never had a car that
I was like, this car is so perfect. I want
this exact car again. I've never thought that. I've always
been like, yeah, it's a car. Especially I've had Honda
Civic before. I've had multiple hon before. That's true, actually,
but I know what would it go? Right from the
(13:45):
Honda Civic to another Honda Civic one that looked exactly
like it.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
You gotta you gotta, you know, paint with every color
on the path.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, come on live a little folks.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
It fit the bill precisely. Mister Valentine paid twenty pounds
for there is replacement car from a reputable garage, but
upon driving at home, he started to get suspicious. I
started noticing things. Yeah, I mean, I started noticing things
in the car were a little bit odd, like a
single tent peg and some Christmas tree pines and some
(14:16):
like Mars bars, rappers and things that they hadn't cleaned out,
all very similar to what you could have found in
my stolen car. You know what he's emitting, Arawin's emitting.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
He's a slop I'm also gonna say, you're spending twenty
thousand pounds on a car, and you're not going to
be like, hey, guys, can you wash it once before
you sell it to me?
Speaker 2 (14:40):
You're not going to insist that there's no Mars bar rappers.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
On the floor. Dude, that's so real. If rappers alone, sure,
maybe a couple of pine tree needles, sure, those are
hard to get out. They're the glimmer of nature. Yeah,
but this is wild all very similar to what you
could have found in my stolen car, said Marijuan, despite
the car having a new number plate and lower mileage.
(15:03):
They rolled back the odometer. Ah, very illegal. Mister Valentine's
suspicion were confirmed when he later discovered his and his parents'
addresses in the history of the built in navigation system.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Unbelieving, unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
This is like her Cule prawro Is figuring this out
in real time. A part of me, Agatha Christie's famous
detective part of me felt sort of triumphant for a moment,
and then then I realized, actually, no, this isn't some
heroic moment. You didn't go back and get your car.
You've actually done something a bit stupid. So he took
(15:41):
the vehicle to the Honda garage and solihull uh sole Leehole,
Salihule sole Lehole and informed the police, who said he
could not believe that he had bought his own car.
Oh my god, it must have been an amazing moment,
and it was suspected was stolen by an ideas I
fight thieves. The first handed technician, he pulled the physical
(16:03):
key out of the smart key and he puts it
straight in the door, in the locks, and he says, yes,
this is your car. Mister Valentine said, you could also
see signs where they tamper with things and remove the
VIN number, oh, which is a vehicle identification number number,
which is one of the good ones, and replaced other
ones and things. So they really did whatever, chop shop it.
(16:23):
They flipped it.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
But that's so crazy that you would go to the
trouble of removing a VIN code but not get rid
of the Mars bar wrapper.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I know you're so right, So right, I'll switch it out.
Put U Snickers in there. Yeah for a loop. Yeah,
I'm a Mars guy, kidding me. Mounts mounts uh. Mister
Valentine said he believed the garage he bought the car
for him had also been duped and now you hope
to get his money back and deposit back for the vehicle.
The police and the Honda garage all said it was
(16:55):
one of the best clone jobs they'd ever seen. So
if it wasn't for the little artifacts, no one would
have ever known. Wow. Wow ongoing case.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I just wonder if he gets his money back, like
where does the money come from?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
You know? Also if the car's good. I mean I
get the money part. I understand you want to get
your twenty thousand dollars back, but you have the car
that you want and if insurance paid for it. I
don't know if you go to the BBC with this one. Oh,
I think you do sort of a in can well do?
I think they, uh.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Whatever to shut this clone operation down?
Speaker 1 (17:34):
You know, shut the Kia boys. They're coming for you.
Desiree got her car stole, and my friend Alyssa got
her car. Still they're all getting stolen. Then they're all
kias her Honda's Oh excuse me, Oh really, I know
three people in.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Last month whoa I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Yes, I was sucking to my one friend Nat she
got her stole too. Uh and uh she we were
just on a zoom chatting and she's like, the weirdest
part was you when you come outside and you know
where your car is supposed to be she listen, I
think an apartment complex or whatever, and it's like, so
she has a spot, and then there was another car
in her spot. So then you go, oh, did I
park somewhere else? And then you just have to retrace yeah,
(18:13):
and then you go no, and then it slowly washes
over you that your car was stolen somebody else sparked
in that spot.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Oh yeah, that feeling must be awful because there's gonna
be a lot of no. There's no way, There's no
way until you actually have to admit it to yourself.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Can't they track cars now? I mean, aren't cars just
giant electronic computers now? Like I feel like if you
have a newer model car, can't they just be like, oh, yeah,
it's over there. It's a I guess you have to
go through a lot of paperwork or something.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I think I feel like you can, but who knows.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Maybe they have a big blanket that they throw over
the car when they steal it.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
I've seen every Jason Bourne movie. I saw The Amateur
with Rommy Mallick and Lawrence Fishburn. Did you see that movie?
Speaker 2 (18:58):
I started watching it, I couldn't finish.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
No.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Wait, I think I did finish it. I think I
did finish it.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
It's pretty silly.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Yeah, it's fun.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah, but Ronnie Mallock's character makes you think that you
can just trace anything that has electricity. It's like that
hair dryer. It's got ai. There is really funny scene.
If for this is a slight spoiler for anybody who
hasn't seen The Amateur. It's a great plane movie.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I'll say, oh, yeah, it's a beekeeper movie.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Oh Beekeeper?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
So good Beekeeper. I'm a beekeeper.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Do you you pissed off the beekeeper? Who's the beekeeper?
He's part of the beekeeper team. Oh the beekeeper? And
then he's actually a beekeeper. You'll die if you do
shots when he says beekeeper. But in The Amateur, there
is a scene where the main characters are getting chased
by drones and then they go around the corner and
they get shot at and then they drive away and
(19:48):
this the drones just disappeared and stopped. It's like a
major logic bomb where you're like, okay, so we're just
bailing on the idea that those things can fly follow you,
and so you just got to go I don't care.
The older you get, the more you watch movies, I'm like,
that movie was so good, and then I'll go online
and see it got like a twenty on Rotten Tomatoes,
and I'm like, oh man, maybe I'm really dumb.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Or also I'm always just like world, I'm always just
so shocked that movies get made, you know, Or I'm
just like, well, look at this, this movie was made.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
It's there and you can watch it. Absolutely fascinating.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
How absolutely how does it happen all right here? It is?
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Things keep evolving into ant eaters?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Oh really?
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Yeah? This was in uh.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
National Geographic sent in by the delightful and wonderful Gina Coretta.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Thank you, Gina Coretta.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
We like that, ginakretta great.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
I A part of me feels like we've done this story,
but it came out July twenty fifth, twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
So I thought we did one that were they were
turning into crabs.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
They were turning into crabs, right, yeah, yeah, So apparently
they turn into ant eaters as.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Well, okay, by land and see here we go. What's
an educational part it is?
Speaker 3 (21:01):
This was in Science dot org written by Jake Buehler.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Dun, duh, what's up?
Speaker 2 (21:08):
I'm Jake Bueller and I'm the best in the biz.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Damn Right.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Once dinosaurs were out, ant eaters were in. In the
sixty six million years since non avian dinosaurs went extinct,
mammals have evolved into forms specialized for eating ants and
termites at least twelve different times.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Sick.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
The new findings published on the sixteenth of July and evolution.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Okay, so this is brand new information.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Speak to the dramatic impact ants and termites can have
on other species through sheer mass, says Leeds. Study author
Thomas Vita, a paleontologist most recently at the University of
Ball in the rainforests of Central and South America. Ants
and termites outweigh all other insects.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Really, Oh, listen.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
That makes sense?
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Outweigh that makes sense? No, No, listen to this.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Ants and termites outweigh all other insects mammals, amphibians, and
birds combined.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
That's crazy.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
We got to make those to kiss, make them smooch.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Oh man, you mean ants and termites, and termitesites make
them smooch. You get some term ants, uh, or some mites,
and we're talking about it at globally.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Termites alone. This is fucking crazy. This is fucking crazy.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Termites alone globally outweigh all wild mammals by a factor
of ten. Social instincts just have this way of causing
co evolution around them. Think about that, by a factor
of ten, all the blue whales, all the elephants, all
the all the every animal, there's ten times more by
(22:52):
weight of termites, which means there's trillions and trillions more.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Scientists knew that myrrh murmecho.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Mermecafigous myrmecophagus, or ant and termite eating mammals had evolved
independently multiple times, from the ant eaters of the tropical
Americas to the unrelated pangolions and ard varks living in
African Asian The animals share ant slurping adapt adaptations such
as long, sticky tongues, reduced teeth, and strong forelimbs for
(23:25):
digging into insect ness. But until the new study, no
one had investigated the diet's evolutionary history and detail. The
specializations associated with mer mechaf merch mermech.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Wow, it's a hard one.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Mer mecophagy, mrmicophagy, irmacophagy are some of the most bizarre
and fascinating among mammals, said Laura Wilson, an evolutionary biologists.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
At the Australian National University who wasn't involved with the study.
Why are we talking to her?
Speaker 3 (23:54):
This study illuminates our understanding of when and how many
times these fascinating features evolved in under what conditions? Yeah, okay,
how what is this? Twelve times? I'm gonna this is
a very long science dot org thing. Wilson wonders how
the influx of ant eating mammals may have influenced adaptations
(24:15):
within social insects. Before macophages arrival on the scene, the
main predator for small and social insect colonies were other insects,
which comes with a repertoire of insect predator specific defense strategies.
She speculated that to survive against growing ranks of mammalian predators,
social insects could have evolved bigger colony sizes or different venoms.
(24:40):
If history is any guide, there will be no rest
for the world's ants or termites anytime soon, with evolution
constantly threatening to turn mammals into relentless, colony gobbling machines.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Oh my goodness, Jake Bueller for the wind.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Yeah, he is the best in the biz. I ate
termites and believe yeah. And I'm looking for a photo
on my phone video.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
No, not crunchy, mushy.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Yeah. I went to Belize and I went to a
Mayan ruins called Zuna Tunic. It is awesome.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
That sounds cool.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
And when were you, oh, twenty fifteen. And it was
a wonderful country and a wonderful trip. And I had
a tour guy named Ricky and he was born and
raised Belize Man. And he was like, Hey, the cruise
ships show up at like this time, and then all
the tour buses show up at this time. I'm going
(25:37):
to pick you up at five am and we're gonna
go to Zuna Tunage before anybody gets there. And that's
exactly what happened. And as he and this other gent
were walking me up, they were like, have you ever
eaten termites? And I was like no, and he's like
we do, Like you eat him here? And so we
walk up to this giant black bulge on the side
of a tree, and you scratch your finger in and
then you stick it in and then you pull it out,
(25:59):
and however many are on there, you just stick it
at your dragon. Who what? Yeah? And so like he said,
as like kids when they would be in the woods,
kind of like how you and I would eat like
honeysuckle ye or you know, just whatever, blackberries, whatever you
can find on these coasts, they would. I'll find the
video because I definitely. And also they taste like carrots.
Anybody who's done it, nodding long, they taste like baby carrots.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Whoa, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I had no regrets about doing it. They did it first.
It wasn't a prank. They weren't like, do it, dumb
white guy. Yeah, the gringo has landed, And yeah, I'll
find that video. I definitely have a video of me eating.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
I really assumed.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
I really assumed that they had been like fried up
and flavored in some way.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
You stick your finger into the they build a bulge
off the trees of their you know, probably their wood poop.
And so I just stuck my finger right in there
and and ate them. And they were good.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
And it's a lot of protein, right.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Yeah, I think it was. I mean, yeah, it was
twelve your.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Muscle Did your muscles just pop out when you ate it?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah? I flew, I start soaring around in the sky.
It was uh. And then the other other fun fact
from that was we climbed up Tunic, which is very
It has a main area called l the castle El Castel.
And you hear howler monkeys and Guatemala just going crazy,
and Ricky looks at me. He goes, you know, they
(27:20):
have the smallest penises of any monkey, and I go no.
He goes, that's why they yell so much. And then
he goes, you know why they when they get done yelling,
they're so exhausted, they just fall out of the trees.
And I goes that true. He goes, yes, So I
just couldn stop picturing these tiny dick monkeys screaming furiously
and then get nobody cares, so they did fall out
of the trees. Then they just end up on the
(27:42):
ground with a small penis it ain't that just life?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Ain't that just life?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
But yeah, I eight termites and they taste the carrots
and would I do it again? Sure?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (27:50):
I like having fun, Remember, folks, think about those small
dick monkeys screaming next time somebody who's reduced their muffler
drives by in there, irack.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Z Just why why are they doing that? The same
reason That's.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Why I think yourself. There goes a howler monkey. There
a monkey and it's going to fall into his air
mattress as soon as he gets home. Oh man, that's good.
You want to I'll do some thumbs up? Yeah, all right. First, so,

can for the ban animals who are working. We'll share
some lists. I think Caitlyn's going to share some. Just
(30:33):

and it's just gonna get worse, and it's only going
to get worse. So support your local teachers, buy books

it had a viral moment. But also Petunia not an
ugly dog, So salty pet portraits ban animals now compared

Thumbs up, thumbs up.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
All right, Scotty, it is your turn with a story.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Oh it is good. I got some hmm, what did
we do so far? We did an eater and we
did Oh, this one's pretty dumb. Oh, this one's great.
Emmy Young sent this in. Thank you, Emmy Young. This
was in Vice dot com shocking that website still exists,
but apparently it does.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Hey, you know what Vice is killing it?
Speaker 3 (32:52):
I would say they're back vices, really. I their Instagram
is the pieces that they do are always like I am, yes,
very interested in whatever this is because it's always fucking weird,
and it's always stuff that I have no idea about,
and I've never heard anyone else cover.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
So I think they're doing a really, really, really good job.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I mean, back in the day they were the most
fun read, but then turns out most problematic people in
the world. So you know, you take some, you take
the good and the bad.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
I would say, yes, now they're doing a lot of
cool stuff.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Big fans, excellent, big fans over here. This is written
by the best in the biz, Brenna Cooper. She really
is the best in the bees wax. So you know
the band Oasis that are on their Monster tour right
now selling every arena in the world.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Scotty, I know what the story is going to be, Buddy,
No Gallagher just moving stuff years years, moving.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
MEM's furniture around the house to convince him there was
a ghost. So these are the two Gallagher brothers. Arguably
my favorite Oasis not even a top twenty band for me,
but the fact that these two brothers hate each other
so much. I still like Oasis. I like a rock
band where the brothers hate each other. In case you
(34:12):
spent the last ten months with your head buried in
the sand, Oasis have finally gotten back together and spent
last night, July fourth, playing their first show since two
thousand and nine. Wow, which is interesting. That is a hall. Also,
money talks, baby, you can make a lot of money
in those years if they've been touring. Yeah, my fiddle
was like, do you want to go? I think they
were at the Rose Ball. I was like maybe, And
(34:33):
then the back row tickets were three hundred dollars Are
you joking again? Three hundred watch them punch each other.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
How was Oways is still that popular? That's amazing because.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
They went away. I mean, if you go to England,
there are people that will tell you understand what's the story.
Morning Glory is like the record of all records.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
I understand that. I do understand that, but I'm just
that's wild. It's wild.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
My sister liked him. My sister was a big, big fan.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Yeah, I don't even think I couldn't name a song
off the top of my head.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Well, you could do Wonderwall. Everybody knows how I guess.
So there's Wonderwall and the guy that says, anyways, here's
wonder Wall and then slaps an acoustic guitar with a
bing bong. That's one of the best videos ever made online.
Fans lucky enough to attend the opening gig at the
latest tour of Cardiffs Principality Stadium have branded an image
of brothers Noam Liam walking on stage the photo of
(35:27):
the Decade and pray tell dude they love him. There
the Brits love Oasis and maybe we should too, and
praise the band for their classy tribute to uh Liverpool
footballer Diogo Joda or Joda who died in a car
Crash's sad, and there will certainly be plenty of biblical
(35:49):
moments for fans lucky enough to attend any of the
group's upcoming shows. However, for those of us who were
declared bots and unceremoniously booted off the ticket queue, very funny,
oh wow, topical reference. Brenna Cooper is really bringing topical
comedy back to Vice dot com, however, blah blah blah.
(36:11):
So why not for your days humously reading up on
the best of the Gallagher Brothers trivia instead of cursing
everybody who's able to get a ticket? So there's plenty
of moments to choose from, but perhaps fewer better than
Nole's year long dedication to convincing Liam that he was
being haunted by ghosts. According to a twenty sixteen report,
(36:31):
Noel explained that whenever the pair were visiting anywhere remotely spooky,
they'd all convinced Liam the place was haunted. We got
to tell Roz about this. Roserhand, Yeah, we'd tell they know.
That'd be for sure, she knows. We'd tell Liam that
the house was haunted, particularly his bedroom. When he'd get
up in the morning and go have breakfast. Someone would
(36:52):
go in and turn the pictures back to from or
fucking move a lamp beside his bed across the other
side of the room, calling Liam's reaction to the humorous pranks,
The fifty eight year old continued, he'd arrived pale and scream,
have you been fucking my room? Why? No, you've been
in my room because now the fucking lamp is near
(37:13):
the toilet. No way. So anyways, they would appear to
have influenced Liam's concerns about the paranormal. The fifty two
year old that's the lead singer, I believe, revealing he
demanded to be moved into different rooms while recording. Definitely
maybe in Wales. I go to bed, wake up in
the morning and all my funiture furnitures moved around. Liam
(37:34):
claimed in his twenty twenty one book Supersonic, So he's
writing about it, which featured numerous interviews with the band
over the years. I don't remember much, just shitting me
pants because it was haunted. Meanwhile, guitars Paul Bonehead Arthur's
also recalled the rumors, saying one of the staff says, so,
(37:55):
who's sleeping in room three, and Liam replies, that's me right.
Came the reply you got the haunted one then, although
no one can so they just messed with him the
whole way through. Wow. No one can wonder whether or
not knowing the band orchestrated the whole thing, But Liam's
fear of ghosts seems to be that has lasted through
the ages. Wow, with the front man revealing an interview
(38:18):
with Apples Beats One that he was convinced a rocking
chair previously owned by John Lennon was a beacon for
paranormal activity. Oh that's really funny.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Chair previously owned by John Lennon.
Speaker 1 (38:31):
Oh my gosh, there's a beacon for paranormal activity. Sometimes
it freaks me out, he said. Sometimes I come downstairs
and it's rocking on its own. My. What a fine
long term prank to pull on something.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
And Scott, he still still as a man who made
it his twenty twenty four goal to see a ghost.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
You never did.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
I keep looking, man, I look everywhere, and you're in
a great place for it right now. Yeah, I'm a
little too eager.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Maybe, Yeah, they don't want to be seen by you. Yeah,
that's too.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
They really want to spook people that don't want to
see them. That's probably the deal.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
Are you gonna have dinner at the Madonna in tonight?
Speaker 1 (39:16):
Yes I am.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
What are you gonna order a steak?
Speaker 1 (39:19):
I don't know. Sometimes I have to see that menu
because I've been on this weird kick where if I
go to old school, old school places and they have
something on it from fifty years like Lobster.
Speaker 2 (39:29):
Thermo Oster Rockefeller.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Yeah, yeah, so I might go real dumb and real
old and just see if I can find an old
an old plate of something they don't serve anymore.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
It is fascinating how much those things often suck, where
you're just like, oh, I've heard so much about this
and it's disgusting or it's just like tasteless. It is
fascinating that we just didn't I guess it was that
we didn't go out to dinner that much.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Is that? Was that what it was like back in
the fifties?
Speaker 1 (40:03):
What was it?
Speaker 3 (40:05):
I don't know, Or that like food just tasted better then,
like that could be it like food was just generally
higher quality, so you could just kind of have it
by itself and it would taste pretty good.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
Yes, wasn't it. Well, you know, like every restaurant you
go to now, especially Los Angeles, has Branzino on the midt. Yes,
like every single one is Branzino to the point where
but it wasn't branzino called toothfish?
Speaker 3 (40:30):
Huh yeah, yeah, it's yeah, it was called fish. Yeah,
it's called a something fish yeah, yeah too, yeah it was.
It's a there's a word before toothfish. Oh, Patagonian toothfish.
It's a deep sea fish that just lives on the
bottom in the dark, and it's disgusting looking and everybody
hated it, and then they just renamed it and now
(40:51):
it's endangered or something.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
Right, is that Brancino or is that it's that's what
it is. Branzino is on every menu. But yeah, Chilean
Chilean sea bass was called.
Speaker 3 (41:03):
Patagonian toothfish, and it's like not a great looking fish.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
You live, you learn Alanis was right. Yeah, it's an
educational podcast. We just want everybody to know that your
orange ruffy it's not fish, and that you're Chilean sea
bass is Patagonian toothfish. Ruin your ruin a first date
with that information. Here's another fun one, what you just
went got one more for us?
Speaker 3 (41:27):
Yeah, scientists finally know where potatoes come from, and the
answer is very weird.
Speaker 1 (41:34):
I would say the ground would be my first guest.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
It is is, it's it's kind of it's it's shocking.
But I'm not going to read the article. It's a
National Geographic first and foremost. I found it on my
own and for you National Geographic. Really they spend their
time they I think they pay by the word because, uh,
(41:58):
these journalists are right and uh at article for what
could be described as one sentence, they come from potatoestato. Yeah, so, uh,
potatoes evolved into tomatoes.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
Isn't that weird?
Speaker 1 (42:13):
Potatoes turned into tomatoes. Yes, I would never have guessed.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
I never would have guessed that either, and I'm sure
so different.
Speaker 3 (42:22):
The details are deep within this thousand word article, but
I refuse to bore our listeners with the potato tomato
genetic dynasty. But that's pretty interesting. Now you know tomatoes
came from potatoes.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
So you go ruin a second date with that fact.
We're just ruining dates left and right, and that's okay,
that's also part of being a life. But that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
What's your favorite way of having tomatoes.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Hm, well, I like heirloom tomato belt, so like an
air heirloom tomato with burrata and olive oil.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Uh huh, pretty good.
Speaker 1 (43:05):
I agree about you. You got one. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (43:08):
Top three tomato dishes for me. Top three tomato dishes
are number one. This is probably just one that I've
made the most right. You slice your tomatoes and then
you slice onion real thin, and then you just flop
them on a plate on in on top of tomato,
(43:33):
and then balsamic and an olive oil, salt and pepper,
and then one piece of mozzarella on top of each,
with one piece of basil on top.
Speaker 1 (43:47):
Yng, young little basil.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
Yeah nice, that's I guess that's a kupraisey salad.
Speaker 1 (43:52):
You made a cuprasy tower. That is delicious.
Speaker 3 (43:55):
That and then I'm gonna say, I'm just gonna say,
straight up white bread or mayonnaise, one slice of tomato, salt, pepper, dude,
yum yum.
Speaker 1 (44:06):
When they're in season. Yeah, the tomato sandwich like that
is through the and then that is a delicious meals.
Speaker 3 (44:12):
And then last, if I'm fancy, get spatcher, Yeah, get your.
Speaker 1 (44:18):
Dog, soup dog your soup dog. For sure. It is
funny that the comedy concept of throwing tomatoes it's somebody
that you don't like. I started Shakespeare in right, that
was an old thing where you're like boo and you
just throw. It's funny that that kind of survived and
was in comic books and is in like cartoons, Like
(44:39):
throwing tomatoes at a bad comedian. The problem is people assholes.
If a comedian was doing well, somebody's still going to
throw a tomatoes. It is a funny response to somebody
not doing.
Speaker 3 (44:48):
It really is, because not doing well is it the
punishment in and of itself. To add an additional insult
to it is really beyond reproach.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
But yeah, that is. That is very fascinating. So what's
your top? So your top? What's top three for you? You
already said oil.
Speaker 1 (45:08):
I know that's obvious. That's really a sandwich, sparrada, heirloom tomatoes,
olive oil, delicios. So last one, well, I mean, besides
all the obvious ones, besides all the Italian things.
Speaker 2 (45:25):
Hm hmm, I got another one?
Speaker 1 (45:28):
What about this? I like a fried green tomato too?
Oh you do dip that in a little room.
Speaker 3 (45:33):
A lot This is a this is like, this is
a recipe that I mean, I will make Italians.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
Furious, but it's so good.
Speaker 3 (45:44):
It's like a full stick of butter in a pot,
a full onion cut.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
In half, and then just canned.
Speaker 3 (45:56):
Peeled tomatoes, the San Marzano ones, like two cans of those,
and then you just mash it all up and then
you just let it cook for like two hours on
low heat, and then you strain the onions out and
it's like the most perfect sauce.
Speaker 2 (46:14):
It's so good.
Speaker 1 (46:15):
Might need a little, like, you know, half a half
tablespoon of salt and oh yeah, tablespoon of pepper in there.
Speaker 2 (46:22):
You got to leave a little sugar. Maybe a little
sugar in there, a little sugar.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
Never heard anybody making a sass, making a gravy, I know,
I know. Relax, everybody. Here's one to send us on home.
Taron Ali sent this in. You can throw tomato five
star comments at our apple, oh us, and give us
five stars. We really enjoy those, really help us so
(46:47):
very much. Thank you everybody does this, Kurt, This one pertains
to you as a father of children who are approaching
this age. Nine year old drives parents truck to school
after missing the bus.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
Oh, I believe it, Yeah, believe it.
Speaker 1 (47:05):
This was in Penn Live, which is actually real, but
it was also in Cake Reports, but that's kak E.
Chris Martner wrote this, when you're talking about kids getting
in trouble, you call one guy, Mommer, Christopher Mohmer Matmer.
He is the best in the beeswax. Maybe they were
serving tacos in the school cafeteria that day, writes Best
(47:28):
in the Business journalists from penlive dot com Chris Montner.
Nine year old boy in Kansas drove his parents' truck
to school on Wednesday after he missed the school bus.
Cake Reports kak E reports that police in May's, which
some say stands for corn some don't, received a call
Wednesday morning about a young boy driving a white pickup truck.
(47:50):
After traveling to the scene, they were then redirected to
a nearby school, pray Woodman Elementary. Once there, police learned
that the boy had taken his parents' white Chevy truck
to make a three mile trip between the house and
the school. The boy told police that his dad was
already working his mom was out of town, so he
took the truck because he didn't want to miss school. Wow,
Sergeant Braiden Blackburn. Braiden Blackburn, braid in man, that's a
(48:14):
tough one, told news outlets that the youth parked better
than most adults parks. Wow, this was a new one
for said Sergeant Blackburn. This was a new one for us.
There were no collisions or traffic issues at all. Police
did not write any tickets. Blackburn said, he's sure he's
going to be in tons of trouble with his parents,
but that's all. So.
Speaker 2 (48:34):
I liked the I liked the way he got away
with this good nice work. He did it great.
Speaker 3 (48:40):
Also, what's what would be interesting for that nine year
old is like there's going to be certain things that
he's going to encounter. He's been in a car his
whole life, but like where to park is probably like hmm,
this is something I've never thought about before.
Speaker 1 (48:58):
I like that, do you know where he's.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
Gonna get there? And be like, I got to make
some decisions?
Speaker 1 (49:03):
Where do final step?
Speaker 2 (49:07):
I got myself all the way here? Now what do
I do?
Speaker 1 (49:10):
You know, I'm not a dad, but you know the
dad things that I do as a middle aged guy,
Like I park far away from THENT doors. Like if
there's like thirty spots deep in a home depot parking lot,
or you know, I will park. I'll park ten away
from everybody else. I'm like, I get the steps in
easy and easy out there and ding the car. That is,
I have a discharge for that. Yeah, yeah, that's charge. Yeah,
(49:35):
why not do it? But also nine years old, Like
when I was twelve, my dad taught me how to
drive a pickup truck in a field. He was like,
so I by the time I was sixteen, I had
been driving slowly in a grass field and a Chevy
S ten pickup truck for four or five years. That's
probably rated pretty cool. I got a point taking off
(49:56):
the Maryland Driver's test because I palmed the wheel parallel parking.
Speaker 2 (50:00):
Oh so stupid.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
Yeah, you're supposed to pass it hand over hand. And
I was looking back in the Corolla and I palmed it,
and there's I got to the deduction and I, oh, yeah,
oh is it?
Speaker 2 (50:11):
Oh is it a deduction for doing it too well?
Speaker 1 (50:16):
Yes? Sorry that I'm gonna get laid more than you
will parallel parker like hand over hand, good luck, pal
But that is true. I'm a good parallel Parker, and
I stand by that, and a woman on Jeopardy once
I was watching, they were like, you're from Baltimore, Maryland.
She goes yes where everybody can parallel park really, and
I still don't know why she said that. I've never
heard that reputation.
Speaker 3 (50:38):
I've never heard it either as a person who's lived
in Baltimore.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
I do think she wanted Jeopardy, so we got to
listen to she's really smart.
Speaker 2 (50:45):

Oh? I would love that, you know how I love that.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
We started to do this one at the end of
our video episode, but you know, we just gave him
that juicy sweet headline then bailed on out. So let's
do it on the main pop Oh yeah, sorry, patrons,
Oliver David you sent this in. Thank you. Oliver David
Man discovers he bought his own stolen car.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
I'm so excited to hear the details of this. You
know what, it's just like, you know, drive it like
it's stolen on this episode of.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Bananas and Joy.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Bananas, guys, gals, non binary pals, Welcome to Bananas.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I am kerb Broneller.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I am banana Boy number two Scotty Landis. Thank you
for listening to what we call It is proclaimed far
and wide from the mountaintops. The silliest little podcast there
ever was these We are the fun good Boys. We're
the feel good boys. We're the fun good boys. Fun
and Field were feeling good. And when you're feeling good,
you're having fun. So you just let all your problems,
(01:32):
all the stresses of real life, just let them fall
right off your shoulder and soar into the air with us,
into the strange news.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
I find that when I'm running late or to do
a bananas and I'm stressed out about getting all the
stuff I need to get done, the moment we start,
I relax. When it's over, I feel better. It is
truly a joy to do. Thank you so much, Scottie
for making time here. You are at the Madonna Inn.
(02:01):
No one can see them, but I can see him
looking good. How long are you there?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
For? U? Through the whole weekend and then just you know,
just just felt like a little change of scenery got
a lot of show business town. Tinseltown, USA shuts down
pretty much the entire summer for those who are thinking
about entering television or movies. Kurt and I can tell
you this from over a decade of experience. Yeah, there's
(02:26):
a window for pitching shows and selling TV shows and movies,
and it usually starts around February, as early as January fifteenth,
but usually really more like February. And then everybody pitches, pitches, pitches,
and you try to sell, sell, sell in March, in April,
and then right around mid May, all the gatekeepers, the
studio heads, all the higher ups in the business. They
go on really nice vacations. They go to the Hampton's,
(02:49):
they go to ted, they go to all.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
And they're annoying to have to do their job.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
At and then they don't come back. They say in August,
but they don't only come back until after and then
from September till beout halloweens until Halloween.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah, exactly. And also, like you always have to take
into consideration. This is something that I've never seen in
any other industry. If if Labor Day is on September first,
you would assume that business would start up again September second,
you would be incorrect. It will be a full other
week before people start doing anything because they have to
(03:26):
have one week at work to like, I don't know,
like just not do anything. And everyone else is just
a freelance person who's just waiting to get their thing heard.
They're just waiting for the check, you're just waiting for
the pitch, you're just waiting to do it. Yeah, and
then they'll work from the second week in September till
I would say October twenty ninth, Yeah, and then that's
(03:49):
that is it until January fifteenth.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
And I believe there's two very popular Jewish holidays in
that timeframe.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Also, yeah, that'll just take a big, huge chunk.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Yeah, So between all of it, basically you have about
six weeks of your entire career to sell. What will
make or break the fact that you can eat and
feed yourself. So just take that into account before you've
signed up for that film degree. Anyway, I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling great, and I was just gearing up. Yeah,
(04:19):
just getting ready because I'm going to really hit September
hard and just try to sell sales, sell sell, sell,
sell sell.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Oh yeah, baby, I'm excited. That's great.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah, man, how you doing? What's up over there? Is? It?
Does it rain and thunderstorm at three pm? Every day?
Speaker 3 (04:32):
So it was and when I got here, honestly, it
was crazy. June fourteenth, when I arrived on the East coast,
it was cold for like three days. It was like
in the sixties, and I was like, what is going on?
And then it hard changed into summer. But then it
was like a hard change in the summer that then
would come with three pm thunderstorms almost every day, which
(04:55):
was I loved, you know, it was just like soap,
A cool.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Kid it's the best. How about firefly and you got
those things?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Oh, we gotton around, We got so many fireflies.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
But recently it's been low humidity, no rain, just sunny
days every single day. It's been an absolute delight, and
I cannot wait for September.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
I'm very excited about October as well.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I can't believe my kids are gonna have like a
Halloween where it's a little nip in the air.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
They're gonna, oh, they're gonna get Yeah, they're gonna get
walloped by four season. Living Jersey gets the most four
seasons of anyone, It.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Really really does. So I'm very excited.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
That is thrilling and I'm glad to hear it. Do
you want me to just dive right in and get
into the story.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Oh yeah, baby.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
I mean, we can't just talk about soup for twenty
six minutes.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I mean we could.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
I want to start a secondary podcast called just Soup Baby.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I know that we got more feedback from that episode
than any other episode we ever did, including one guy
that said, I was laughing so hard you guys down
at my dashboard and realized you'd only been talking about
super twenty six minutes whoops, and people were like mad,
They're like, oh, you forgot this one, And I'm like, well,
I didn't know Kurt was going to ask me my
top four suit, so I I just was firing from
(06:16):
the hip. Anyways, Oliver David sent this and you can
send in any story you want, but strange news and
funny is preferable to The Bananas Podcast at gmail dot com.
Or we have an Instagram that is on your phone.
It's an application and it's the Bananas Podcast on Instagram.
Man discovers he bought his own stolen calls a wow one.
(06:37):
This is BBC. That's real. Written by Best in the
Business Shanaze con Oh shanaz Ooh, I feel for you.
Shanna's con. A man who bought a twenty thousand pound
car so let's say twenty six thousand dollars something like
that American Bucks to replace the old one that he
(06:57):
had stolen, discovered he had accidentally bought back his own
stolen car. Uh alwen, how would you say? E w
A n Kurt Evan, e e w give it to me?
Y e w e w A N you win? Yeah
you ewen yeah ewen Ewan McGregor that's how he spells
his name, right, Yeah, that's something.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Hey, listen, we call him e Won. I bet you
he doesn't listen.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Yeah, that's right. Erawon Valentine, thirty six from Solely Hill
or Solohole woke up. I mean they're just hitting me
with it. Welcome on twenty eight February to find his car,
a black Honda Civic, had disappeared from his driveway overnight.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Dude, from his driveway.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
That sucks, bummer. Yeah, I had a Bosso had his
car stolen out of his driveway and we were like, dude,
what happened? And he's like, I left my keys in it.
So he just left his on the car with his
keys in his.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I've done it.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I've done it multiple times and luckily it hasn't been stolen. Yes, dude,
does what when when you call insurance about that, are
they just like, no, we're not going to pay for
it if you left?
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Who knows? Who knows? They invented private property over there,
so they probably are like no, I'm terribly sorry, No sorry,
Erawon Valentine. After informing police and his insurers, he started
looking for a replacement. So I didn't say if they
paid him or not court. He wanted to find a
replacement twenty sixteen type R model that sounds like a
(08:28):
very nice car, and found one that looked identical about
seventy miles away. After he bought it, he noticed similar
items in the vehicle. It was then mister Valentine realized
he had bought his own stolen car. He also found
his previous address in the car's sat NAV, so he
turned on his car navigation and it's at home and
it was his home.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I mean, so do they not have VIN numbers? And
maybe they don't have VIN numbers in the UK? Seems
to be seems to be like the first thing he
would do is check your VIN on the car that
looks exactly like yours that was stolen.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah, but you know what, Yeah, that's true. Jumping. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
I like the way ir one does things. He jumps
right in, you know what I mean, He's like me.
He doesn't wait and check to see if it's a
good idea to buy a house right now.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
He just does it without thinking.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
That's right. And look at you go. You've still got
all your arms and legs, fingers, You're still upright and mobile.
You've probably jumped into so much water in your life
without checking the seat on takidding me.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
I think the worst one was I know, I really am.
The worst one was jumping into the school Girl River
in Philadelphia at like three in the morning. Oh yeah,
and it was like maybe ten feet to get out
covered in barnacles.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Oh no, it was real rough.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
It was real rough getting out there.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
But uh. You also had an Australian wedding incident.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Into you don't have to get into no, I'll get
into it. This was at a wedding. It was at
a wedding. What a fucking Australian wedding this was. Oh
it was at at a wedding in Australia where they
did not serve dinner. They just served appetizers and just drink.
(10:19):
It was like we were there for like eight hours
and just and I was so drunk and eventually I
just took all my clothes off and slipped into this
lagoon that was like that we were We were on
a lagoon, which is also a crazy bad idea in Australia.
There's just crocketiles and everything, and so I'm swimming in
this lagoon, yes, sir, with like this this like with
(10:46):
the with my girlfriend's brother's wife. Were like swimming in
this lagoon and then I go and then you know
lagoons on the other side is the ocean, right and famously, Yeah,
so I pop out of the lagoon in my underwear
and then I run across this like short spit of
(11:06):
sand and I just see the ocean.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
The ocean's right there, and I just dive right in.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
And as I'm mid jump, the the wave just drains
back and I jumped right onto just hard volcanic rock.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
My glasses fall off. Oh boy, they fall into the ocean.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Scottie good.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
And I just immediately reached my hand down and there there.
This is nighttime, obviously, and I happen to pull my
hand up with it.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
But then miracle just bleeding.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Get back in the lagoon, of course, smart pouring blood
out of my shoulder and my arm.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Way less sharks than the legend.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Let every animal know in the lagoon, I'm there.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
To be eating.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
And then and then went back to the to the wedding,
get dressed nice and yeah the next morning, just blood
dripping through my shirt at the at the next morning breakfast,
not one of mine.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
It is a class of Australia's wedding.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Not proud of that.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Not proud of that because I dump it jump into
a lot of water. I was consider it myself to
be pretty safe when I jump into the water, but
not then didn't do it right.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Not nine hundred beers DP now two hundred beers debatable,
nine hundred beers feet first guys, he told Erewhon told
BBC that he was gutted when his car was stole
and he was determined to replace it with the same model. Quote,
it was sort of a midlife crisis car and you
don't get many of this, that's a positives, so it's
(12:47):
pretty determined to get a replaced before one day I
have to get sort of a family car, he said.
I spotted one that was identical, same color, same year,
same slightly obnoxious exhaust system on as well. It fit
the bill precisely what it did. This is also sort
of like those those weird people in life that date
(13:09):
the same person a different same person. It really is
fascinating when you see that happen and they're like, oh
I broke up with Becca, Oh okay, this is my
new girlfriend. This is Rebecca, And they look exactly the
same You're like, boy, you got it type Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
And also wouldn't you.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I mean, just like, I've never had a car that
I was like, this car is so perfect. I want
this exact car again. I've never thought that. I've always
been like, yeah, it's a car. Especially I've had Honda
Civic before. I've had multiple hon before. That's true, actually,
but I know what would it go? Right from the
(13:45):
Honda Civic to another Honda Civic one that looked exactly
like it.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
You gotta you gotta, you know, paint with every color
on the path.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, come on live a little folks.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
It fit the bill precisely. Mister Valentine paid twenty pounds
for there is replacement car from a reputable garage, but
upon driving at home, he started to get suspicious. I
started noticing things. Yeah, I mean, I started noticing things
in the car were a little bit odd, like a
single tent peg and some Christmas tree pines and some
(14:16):
like Mars bars, rappers and things that they hadn't cleaned out,
all very similar to what you could have found in
my stolen car. You know what he's emitting, Arawin's emitting.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
He's a slop I'm also gonna say, you're spending twenty
thousand pounds on a car, and you're not going to
be like, hey, guys, can you wash it once before
you sell it to me?
Speaker 2 (14:40):
You're not going to insist that there's no Mars bar rappers.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
On the floor. Dude, that's so real. If rappers alone, sure,
maybe a couple of pine tree needles, sure, those are
hard to get out. They're the glimmer of nature. Yeah,
but this is wild all very similar to what you
could have found in my stolen car, said Marijuan, despite
the car having a new number plate and lower mileage.
(15:03):
They rolled back the odometer. Ah, very illegal. Mister Valentine's
suspicion were confirmed when he later discovered his and his parents'
addresses in the history of the built in navigation system.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Unbelieving, unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
This is like her Cule prawro Is figuring this out
in real time. A part of me, Agatha Christie's famous
detective part of me felt sort of triumphant for a moment,
and then then I realized, actually, no, this isn't some
heroic moment. You didn't go back and get your car.
You've actually done something a bit stupid. So he took
(15:41):
the vehicle to the Honda garage and solihull uh sole Leehole,
Salihule sole Lehole and informed the police, who said he
could not believe that he had bought his own car.
Oh my god, it must have been an amazing moment,
and it was suspected was stolen by an ideas I
fight thieves. The first handed technician, he pulled the physical
(16:03):
key out of the smart key and he puts it
straight in the door, in the locks, and he says, yes,
this is your car. Mister Valentine said, you could also
see signs where they tamper with things and remove the
VIN number, oh, which is a vehicle identification number number,
which is one of the good ones, and replaced other
ones and things. So they really did whatever, chop shop it.
(16:23):
They flipped it.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
But that's so crazy that you would go to the
trouble of removing a VIN code but not get rid
of the Mars bar wrapper.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I know you're so right, So right, I'll switch it out.
Put U Snickers in there. Yeah for a loop. Yeah,
I'm a Mars guy, kidding me. Mounts mounts uh. Mister
Valentine said he believed the garage he bought the car
for him had also been duped and now you hope
to get his money back and deposit back for the vehicle.
The police and the Honda garage all said it was
(16:55):
one of the best clone jobs they'd ever seen. So
if it wasn't for the little artifacts, no one would
have ever known. Wow. Wow ongoing case.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I just wonder if he gets his money back, like
where does the money come from?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
You know? Also if the car's good. I mean I
get the money part. I understand you want to get
your twenty thousand dollars back, but you have the car
that you want and if insurance paid for it. I
don't know if you go to the BBC with this one. Oh,
I think you do sort of a in can well do?
I think they, uh.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Whatever to shut this clone operation down?
Speaker 1 (17:34):
You know, shut the Kia boys. They're coming for you.
Desiree got her car stole, and my friend Alyssa got
her car. Still they're all getting stolen. Then they're all
kias her Honda's Oh excuse me, Oh really, I know
three people in.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Last month whoa I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Yes, I was sucking to my one friend Nat she
got her stole too. Uh and uh she we were
just on a zoom chatting and she's like, the weirdest
part was you when you come outside and you know
where your car is supposed to be she listen, I
think an apartment complex or whatever, and it's like, so
she has a spot, and then there was another car
in her spot. So then you go, oh, did I
park somewhere else? And then you just have to retrace yeah,
(18:13):
and then you go no, and then it slowly washes
over you that your car was stolen somebody else sparked
in that spot.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Oh yeah, that feeling must be awful because there's gonna
be a lot of no. There's no way, There's no
way until you actually have to admit it to yourself.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Can't they track cars now? I mean, aren't cars just
giant electronic computers now? Like I feel like if you
have a newer model car, can't they just be like, oh, yeah,
it's over there. It's a I guess you have to
go through a lot of paperwork or something.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I think I feel like you can, but who knows.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Maybe they have a big blanket that they throw over
the car when they steal it.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
I've seen every Jason Bourne movie. I saw The Amateur
with Rommy Mallick and Lawrence Fishburn. Did you see that movie?
Speaker 2 (18:58):
I started watching it, I couldn't finish.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
No.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Wait, I think I did finish it. I think I
did finish it.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
It's pretty silly.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Yeah, it's fun.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah, but Ronnie Mallock's character makes you think that you
can just trace anything that has electricity. It's like that
hair dryer. It's got ai. There is really funny scene.
If for this is a slight spoiler for anybody who
hasn't seen The Amateur. It's a great plane movie.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I'll say, oh, yeah, it's a beekeeper movie.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Oh Beekeeper?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
So good Beekeeper. I'm a beekeeper.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Do you you pissed off the beekeeper? Who's the beekeeper?
He's part of the beekeeper team. Oh the beekeeper? And
then he's actually a beekeeper. You'll die if you do
shots when he says beekeeper. But in The Amateur, there
is a scene where the main characters are getting chased
by drones and then they go around the corner and
they get shot at and then they drive away and
(19:48):
this the drones just disappeared and stopped. It's like a
major logic bomb where you're like, okay, so we're just
bailing on the idea that those things can fly follow you,
and so you just got to go I don't care.
The older you get, the more you watch movies, I'm like,
that movie was so good, and then I'll go online
and see it got like a twenty on Rotten Tomatoes,
and I'm like, oh man, maybe I'm really dumb.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Or also I'm always just like world, I'm always just
so shocked that movies get made, you know, Or I'm
just like, well, look at this, this movie was made.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
It's there and you can watch it. Absolutely fascinating.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
How absolutely how does it happen all right here? It is?
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Things keep evolving into ant eaters?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Oh really?
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Yeah? This was in uh.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
National Geographic sent in by the delightful and wonderful Gina Coretta.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Thank you, Gina Coretta.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
We like that, ginakretta great.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
I A part of me feels like we've done this story,
but it came out July twenty fifth, twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
So I thought we did one that were they were
turning into crabs.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
They were turning into crabs, right, yeah, yeah, So apparently
they turn into ant eaters as.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Well, okay, by land and see here we go. What's
an educational part it is?
Speaker 3 (21:01):
This was in Science dot org written by Jake Buehler.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Dun, duh, what's up?
Speaker 2 (21:08):
I'm Jake Bueller and I'm the best in the biz.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Damn Right.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Once dinosaurs were out, ant eaters were in. In the
sixty six million years since non avian dinosaurs went extinct,
mammals have evolved into forms specialized for eating ants and
termites at least twelve different times.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Sick.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
The new findings published on the sixteenth of July and evolution.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Okay, so this is brand new information.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Speak to the dramatic impact ants and termites can have
on other species through sheer mass, says Leeds. Study author
Thomas Vita, a paleontologist most recently at the University of
Ball in the rainforests of Central and South America. Ants
and termites outweigh all other insects.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Really, Oh, listen.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
That makes sense?
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Outweigh that makes sense? No, No, listen to this.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Ants and termites outweigh all other insects mammals, amphibians, and
birds combined.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
That's crazy.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
We got to make those to kiss, make them smooch.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Oh man, you mean ants and termites, and termitesites make
them smooch. You get some term ants, uh, or some mites,
and we're talking about it at globally.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Termites alone. This is fucking crazy. This is fucking crazy.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Termites alone globally outweigh all wild mammals by a factor
of ten. Social instincts just have this way of causing
co evolution around them. Think about that, by a factor
of ten, all the blue whales, all the elephants, all
the all the every animal, there's ten times more by
(22:52):
weight of termites, which means there's trillions and trillions more.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Scientists knew that myrrh murmecho.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Mermecafigous myrmecophagus, or ant and termite eating mammals had evolved
independently multiple times, from the ant eaters of the tropical
Americas to the unrelated pangolions and ard varks living in
African Asian The animals share ant slurping adapt adaptations such
as long, sticky tongues, reduced teeth, and strong forelimbs for
(23:25):
digging into insect ness. But until the new study, no
one had investigated the diet's evolutionary history and detail. The
specializations associated with mer mechaf merch mermech.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Wow, it's a hard one.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Mer mecophagy, mrmicophagy, irmacophagy are some of the most bizarre
and fascinating among mammals, said Laura Wilson, an evolutionary biologists.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
At the Australian National University who wasn't involved with the study.
Why are we talking to her?
Speaker 3 (23:54):
This study illuminates our understanding of when and how many
times these fascinating features evolved in under what conditions? Yeah, okay,
how what is this? Twelve times? I'm gonna this is
a very long science dot org thing. Wilson wonders how
the influx of ant eating mammals may have influenced adaptations
(24:15):
within social insects. Before macophages arrival on the scene, the
main predator for small and social insect colonies were other insects,
which comes with a repertoire of insect predator specific defense strategies.
She speculated that to survive against growing ranks of mammalian predators,
social insects could have evolved bigger colony sizes or different venoms.
(24:40):
If history is any guide, there will be no rest
for the world's ants or termites anytime soon, with evolution
constantly threatening to turn mammals into relentless, colony gobbling machines.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Oh my goodness, Jake Bueller for the wind.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Yeah, he is the best in the biz. I ate
termites and believe yeah. And I'm looking for a photo
on my phone video.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
No, not crunchy, mushy.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Yeah. I went to Belize and I went to a
Mayan ruins called Zuna Tunic. It is awesome.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
That sounds cool.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
And when were you, oh, twenty fifteen. And it was
a wonderful country and a wonderful trip. And I had
a tour guy named Ricky and he was born and
raised Belize Man. And he was like, Hey, the cruise
ships show up at like this time, and then all
the tour buses show up at this time. I'm going
(25:37):
to pick you up at five am and we're gonna
go to Zuna Tunage before anybody gets there. And that's
exactly what happened. And as he and this other gent
were walking me up, they were like, have you ever
eaten termites? And I was like no, and he's like
we do, Like you eat him here? And so we
walk up to this giant black bulge on the side
of a tree, and you scratch your finger in and
then you stick it in and then you pull it out,
(25:59):
and however many are on there, you just stick it
at your dragon. Who what? Yeah? And so like he said,
as like kids when they would be in the woods,
kind of like how you and I would eat like
honeysuckle ye or you know, just whatever, blackberries, whatever you
can find on these coasts, they would. I'll find the
video because I definitely. And also they taste like carrots.
Anybody who's done it, nodding long, they taste like baby carrots.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Whoa, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I had no regrets about doing it. They did it first.
It wasn't a prank. They weren't like, do it, dumb
white guy. Yeah, the gringo has landed, And yeah, I'll
find that video. I definitely have a video of me eating.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
I really assumed.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
I really assumed that they had been like fried up
and flavored in some way.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
You stick your finger into the they build a bulge
off the trees of their you know, probably their wood poop.
And so I just stuck my finger right in there
and and ate them. And they were good.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
And it's a lot of protein, right.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Yeah, I think it was. I mean, yeah, it was
twelve your.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Muscle Did your muscles just pop out when you ate it?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah? I flew, I start soaring around in the sky.
It was uh. And then the other other fun fact
from that was we climbed up Tunic, which is very
It has a main area called l the castle El Castel.
And you hear howler monkeys and Guatemala just going crazy,
and Ricky looks at me. He goes, you know, they
(27:20):
have the smallest penises of any monkey, and I go no.
He goes, that's why they yell so much. And then
he goes, you know why they when they get done yelling,
they're so exhausted, they just fall out of the trees.
And I goes that true. He goes, yes, So I
just couldn stop picturing these tiny dick monkeys screaming furiously
and then get nobody cares, so they did fall out
of the trees. Then they just end up on the
(27:42):
ground with a small penis it ain't that just life?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Ain't that just life?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
But yeah, I eight termites and they taste the carrots
and would I do it again? Sure?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (27:50):
I like having fun, Remember, folks, think about those small
dick monkeys screaming next time somebody who's reduced their muffler
drives by in there, irack.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Z Just why why are they doing that? The same
reason That's.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Why I think yourself. There goes a howler monkey. There
a monkey and it's going to fall into his air
mattress as soon as he gets home. Oh man, that's good.
You want to I'll do some thumbs up? Yeah, all right. First, so,
we got a thumbs up our guy, Jared Whitlock. He
was our first sixty nine dollars Patreon patriot for the joy.
(28:30):
He gets all the benefits of all the other levels,
but he also gets the joy of knowing that he
has a sense of humor worthy of paying sixty nine dollars.
So thank you Jared Whitlock.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
We have to do an ad for him.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Yeah, we're going to do a full ad for you, Jared.
Don't worry, we have not forgotten. Yeah, thumbs up to
Oh so a couple episodes, I said, hey, do we
have any active or former military? Yeah, but animals. Turns
out we got hundreds, Like I I way more than
I ever thought. Guy that was a veterinarian in so
it's a vet vet. Now he's a vet and he
(29:04):
said if you vet me that he'll be a vetted
vet vet. And so yeah, he I'm going to read
that one on one of our mail bag apps, all right,
and then but JJ Air Force Vet and Bananimal JJ
they are coming to bananas Fest wonderful, awesome October fourth,
Denver be a bananas Fest. Banans Fest too, but they
are also reffing the okay a roller derby. Okay, they
(29:29):
are a roller derby ref curd and there is something
called the Goosebumps Tournament in Denver October third through fifth. No,
if you come to bananas Fest and you get there
on the second or you're going to stay to the
fifth or sixth, and you need something else to do
besides Bananifest, go to Denver Rollerderby dot Org JJ A
(29:51):
Bananimal They are one of the referees and there's a
whole sort of roller derby tournament happening at the same
time in Denver. And curt if we have time, we
got oh my god, please so thumbs up to you
Air Force Vet JJ, and we'll see up at Ansfest.
Please introduce yourself. Yeah, Kayler Zimmerman, who also has a
last name, but I couldn't fit it all in my screenshot.
(30:12):
My apologies. Once the thumb up all teachers who are
going back to school right now. She says they're all
working really hard and that everything fun and exciting in
the room is funded by teachers. Yep, so thumbs up
to all you teachers. Clear as many lists as you
can for the ban animals who are working. We'll share
some lists. I think Caitlyn's going to share some. Just
(30:33):
clear the list, give them. It's crazy how underfunded teachers are,
and it's just gonna get worse, and it's only going
to get worse. So support your local teachers, buy books
by Crowns, whatever supplies they need. Salty Pet Portraits is
thumbing up their friends dogs, Salty pe Petunia. Yeah, salty
pet portraits because Petunia won the fiftieth annual Ugliest Dog Contest.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Oh my goodness, it was.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
The one that was all over the internet. It took
it had a viral moment. But also Petunia not an
ugly dog, So salty pet portraits ban animals now compared
to what they normally the things that they usually hold
up there look like dust bunnies and snot this dog
was just too old, frenchy or something. I actually think
(31:17):
pretty cute. So thank you, Salty Pet Portraits. Get your
pet portraits done it at Salty Pet Portraits on Instagram.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Right, he's a cute dog that's not an ugly dog. Also,
John Mulaney's dog is named Petunia as well.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Apparently look at that.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
I mean I think his dog's uglier than the Petunia
that well and ugliest dog. Mm yeah you can tell
John I said that.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Yeah, then there's nothing he can do about it because
Kurt's slightly bigger and last, but not least, Rita may
be a Peter Rita sens in so many great stories,
a true blue bananimal. Once the thumb up her dad, Patrick,
who is always made her feel loved and supportive. This
is her dad, and Patrick also has always been a
model and how to always be silly and friendly and
(32:07):
to be yourself. Really. Rita says she doesn't know if
she can teach Patrick how to listen to a podcast,
but still thinks he's so great he deserves a thumbs up.
So thumbs up to all the great dads out there,
the teachers, the ugly dogs, and all of our bananimal
vets and veterinarians, military vets and veterinarians. You guys are
the best in the biz.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Thumbs up, thumbs up.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
All right, Scotty, it is your turn with a story.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Oh it is good. I got some hmm, what did
we do so far? We did an eater and we
did Oh, this one's pretty dumb. Oh, this one's great.
Emmy Young sent this in. Thank you, Emmy Young. This
was in Vice dot com shocking that website still exists,
but apparently it does.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Hey, you know what Vice is killing it?
Speaker 3 (32:52):
I would say they're back vices, really. I their Instagram
is the pieces that they do are always like I am, yes,
very interested in whatever this is because it's always fucking weird,
and it's always stuff that I have no idea about,
and I've never heard anyone else cover.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
So I think they're doing a really, really, really good job.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I mean, back in the day they were the most
fun read, but then turns out most problematic people in
the world. So you know, you take some, you take
the good and the bad.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
I would say, yes, now they're doing a lot of
cool stuff.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Big fans, excellent, big fans over here. This is written
by the best in the biz, Brenna Cooper. She really
is the best in the bees wax. So you know
the band Oasis that are on their Monster tour right
now selling every arena in the world.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Scotty, I know what the story is going to be, Buddy,
No Gallagher just moving stuff years years, moving.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
MEM's furniture around the house to convince him there was
a ghost. So these are the two Gallagher brothers. Arguably
my favorite Oasis not even a top twenty band for me,
but the fact that these two brothers hate each other
so much. I still like Oasis. I like a rock
band where the brothers hate each other. In case you
(34:12):
spent the last ten months with your head buried in
the sand, Oasis have finally gotten back together and spent
last night, July fourth, playing their first show since two
thousand and nine. Wow, which is interesting. That is a hall. Also,
money talks, baby, you can make a lot of money
in those years if they've been touring. Yeah, my fiddle
was like, do you want to go? I think they
were at the Rose Ball. I was like maybe, And
(34:33):
then the back row tickets were three hundred dollars Are
you joking again? Three hundred watch them punch each other.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
How was Oways is still that popular? That's amazing because.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
They went away. I mean, if you go to England,
there are people that will tell you understand what's the story.
Morning Glory is like the record of all records.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
I understand that. I do understand that, but I'm just
that's wild. It's wild.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
My sister liked him. My sister was a big, big fan.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Yeah, I don't even think I couldn't name a song
off the top of my head.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Well, you could do Wonderwall. Everybody knows how I guess.
So there's Wonderwall and the guy that says, anyways, here's
wonder Wall and then slaps an acoustic guitar with a
bing bong. That's one of the best videos ever made online.
Fans lucky enough to attend the opening gig at the
latest tour of Cardiffs Principality Stadium have branded an image
of brothers Noam Liam walking on stage the photo of
(35:27):
the Decade and pray tell dude they love him. There
the Brits love Oasis and maybe we should too, and
praise the band for their classy tribute to uh Liverpool
footballer Diogo Joda or Joda who died in a car
Crash's sad, and there will certainly be plenty of biblical
(35:49):
moments for fans lucky enough to attend any of the
group's upcoming shows. However, for those of us who were
declared bots and unceremoniously booted off the ticket queue, very funny,
oh wow, topical reference. Brenna Cooper is really bringing topical
comedy back to Vice dot com, however, blah blah blah.
(36:11):
So why not for your days humously reading up on
the best of the Gallagher Brothers trivia instead of cursing
everybody who's able to get a ticket? So there's plenty
of moments to choose from, but perhaps fewer better than
Nole's year long dedication to convincing Liam that he was
being haunted by ghosts. According to a twenty sixteen report,
(36:31):
Noel explained that whenever the pair were visiting anywhere remotely spooky,
they'd all convinced Liam the place was haunted. We got
to tell Roz about this. Roserhand, Yeah, we'd tell they know.
That'd be for sure, she knows. We'd tell Liam that
the house was haunted, particularly his bedroom. When he'd get
up in the morning and go have breakfast. Someone would
(36:52):
go in and turn the pictures back to from or
fucking move a lamp beside his bed across the other
side of the room, calling Liam's reaction to the humorous pranks,
The fifty eight year old continued, he'd arrived pale and scream,
have you been fucking my room? Why? No, you've been
in my room because now the fucking lamp is near
(37:13):
the toilet. No way. So anyways, they would appear to
have influenced Liam's concerns about the paranormal. The fifty two
year old that's the lead singer, I believe, revealing he
demanded to be moved into different rooms while recording. Definitely
maybe in Wales. I go to bed, wake up in
the morning and all my funiture furnitures moved around. Liam
(37:34):
claimed in his twenty twenty one book Supersonic, So he's
writing about it, which featured numerous interviews with the band
over the years. I don't remember much, just shitting me
pants because it was haunted. Meanwhile, guitars Paul Bonehead Arthur's
also recalled the rumors, saying one of the staff says, so,
(37:55):
who's sleeping in room three, and Liam replies, that's me right.
Came the reply you got the haunted one then, although
no one can so they just messed with him the
whole way through. Wow. No one can wonder whether or
not knowing the band orchestrated the whole thing, But Liam's
fear of ghosts seems to be that has lasted through
the ages. Wow, with the front man revealing an interview
(38:18):
with Apples Beats One that he was convinced a rocking
chair previously owned by John Lennon was a beacon for
paranormal activity. Oh that's really funny.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Chair previously owned by John Lennon.
Speaker 1 (38:31):
Oh my gosh, there's a beacon for paranormal activity. Sometimes
it freaks me out, he said. Sometimes I come downstairs
and it's rocking on its own. My. What a fine
long term prank to pull on something.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
And Scott, he still still as a man who made
it his twenty twenty four goal to see a ghost.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
You never did.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
I keep looking, man, I look everywhere, and you're in
a great place for it right now. Yeah, I'm a
little too eager.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Maybe, Yeah, they don't want to be seen by you. Yeah,
that's too.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
They really want to spook people that don't want to
see them. That's probably the deal.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
Are you gonna have dinner at the Madonna in tonight?
Speaker 1 (39:16):
Yes I am.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
What are you gonna order a steak?
Speaker 1 (39:19):
I don't know. Sometimes I have to see that menu
because I've been on this weird kick where if I
go to old school, old school places and they have
something on it from fifty years like Lobster.
Speaker 2 (39:29):
Thermo Oster Rockefeller.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Yeah, yeah, so I might go real dumb and real
old and just see if I can find an old
an old plate of something they don't serve anymore.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
It is fascinating how much those things often suck, where
you're just like, oh, I've heard so much about this
and it's disgusting or it's just like tasteless. It is
fascinating that we just didn't I guess it was that
we didn't go out to dinner that much.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Is that? Was that what it was like back in
the fifties?
Speaker 1 (40:03):
What was it?
Speaker 3 (40:05):
I don't know, Or that like food just tasted better then,
like that could be it like food was just generally
higher quality, so you could just kind of have it
by itself and it would taste pretty good.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
Yes, wasn't it. Well, you know, like every restaurant you
go to now, especially Los Angeles, has Branzino on the midt. Yes,
like every single one is Branzino to the point where
but it wasn't branzino called toothfish?
Speaker 3 (40:30):
Huh yeah, yeah, it's yeah, it was called fish. Yeah,
it's called a something fish yeah, yeah too, yeah it was.
It's a there's a word before toothfish. Oh, Patagonian toothfish.
It's a deep sea fish that just lives on the
bottom in the dark, and it's disgusting looking and everybody
hated it, and then they just renamed it and now
(40:51):
it's endangered or something.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
Right, is that Brancino or is that it's that's what
it is. Branzino is on every menu. But yeah, Chilean
Chilean sea bass was called.
Speaker 3 (41:03):
Patagonian toothfish, and it's like not a great looking fish.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
You live, you learn Alanis was right. Yeah, it's an
educational podcast. We just want everybody to know that your
orange ruffy it's not fish, and that you're Chilean sea
bass is Patagonian toothfish. Ruin your ruin a first date
with that information. Here's another fun one, what you just
went got one more for us?
Speaker 3 (41:27):
Yeah, scientists finally know where potatoes come from, and the
answer is very weird.
Speaker 1 (41:34):
I would say the ground would be my first guest.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
It is is, it's it's kind of it's it's shocking.
But I'm not going to read the article. It's a
National Geographic first and foremost. I found it on my
own and for you National Geographic. Really they spend their
time they I think they pay by the word because, uh,
(41:58):
these journalists are right and uh at article for what
could be described as one sentence, they come from potatoestato. Yeah, so, uh,
potatoes evolved into tomatoes.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
Isn't that weird?
Speaker 1 (42:13):
Potatoes turned into tomatoes. Yes, I would never have guessed.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
I never would have guessed that either, and I'm sure
so different.
Speaker 3 (42:22):
The details are deep within this thousand word article, but
I refuse to bore our listeners with the potato tomato
genetic dynasty. But that's pretty interesting. Now you know tomatoes
came from potatoes.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
So you go ruin a second date with that fact.
We're just ruining dates left and right, and that's okay,
that's also part of being a life. But that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
What's your favorite way of having tomatoes.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Hm, well, I like heirloom tomato belt, so like an
air heirloom tomato with burrata and olive oil.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Uh huh, pretty good.
Speaker 1 (43:05):
I agree about you. You got one. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (43:08):
Top three tomato dishes for me. Top three tomato dishes
are number one. This is probably just one that I've
made the most right. You slice your tomatoes and then
you slice onion real thin, and then you just flop
them on a plate on in on top of tomato,
(43:33):
and then balsamic and an olive oil, salt and pepper,
and then one piece of mozzarella on top of each,
with one piece of basil on top.
Speaker 1 (43:47):
Yng, young little basil.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
Yeah nice, that's I guess that's a kupraisey salad.
Speaker 1 (43:52):
You made a cuprasy tower. That is delicious.
Speaker 3 (43:55):
That and then I'm gonna say, I'm just gonna say,
straight up white bread or mayonnaise, one slice of tomato, salt, pepper, dude,
yum yum.
Speaker 1 (44:06):
When they're in season. Yeah, the tomato sandwich like that
is through the and then that is a delicious meals.
Speaker 3 (44:12):
And then last, if I'm fancy, get spatcher, Yeah, get your.
Speaker 1 (44:18):
Dog, soup dog your soup dog. For sure. It is
funny that the comedy concept of throwing tomatoes it's somebody
that you don't like. I started Shakespeare in right, that
was an old thing where you're like boo and you
just throw. It's funny that that kind of survived and
was in comic books and is in like cartoons, Like
(44:39):
throwing tomatoes at a bad comedian. The problem is people assholes.
If a comedian was doing well, somebody's still going to
throw a tomatoes. It is a funny response to somebody
not doing.
Speaker 3 (44:48):
It really is, because not doing well is it the
punishment in and of itself. To add an additional insult
to it is really beyond reproach.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
But yeah, that is. That is very fascinating. So what's
your top? So your top? What's top three for you? You
already said oil.
Speaker 1 (45:08):
I know that's obvious. That's really a sandwich, sparrada, heirloom tomatoes,
olive oil, delicios. So last one, well, I mean, besides
all the obvious ones, besides all the Italian things.
Speaker 2 (45:25):
Hm hmm, I got another one?
Speaker 1 (45:28):
What about this? I like a fried green tomato too?
Oh you do dip that in a little room.
Speaker 3 (45:33):
A lot This is a this is like, this is
a recipe that I mean, I will make Italians.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
Furious, but it's so good.
Speaker 3 (45:44):
It's like a full stick of butter in a pot,
a full onion cut.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
In half, and then just canned.
Speaker 3 (45:56):
Peeled tomatoes, the San Marzano ones, like two cans of those,
and then you just mash it all up and then
you just let it cook for like two hours on
low heat, and then you strain the onions out and
it's like the most perfect sauce.
Speaker 2 (46:14):
It's so good.
Speaker 1 (46:15):
Might need a little, like, you know, half a half
tablespoon of salt and oh yeah, tablespoon of pepper in there.
Speaker 2 (46:22):
You got to leave a little sugar. Maybe a little
sugar in there, a little sugar.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
Never heard anybody making a sass, making a gravy, I know,
I know. Relax, everybody. Here's one to send us on home.
Taron Ali sent this in. You can throw tomato five
star comments at our apple, oh us, and give us
five stars. We really enjoy those, really help us so
(46:47):
very much. Thank you everybody does this, Kurt, This one pertains
to you as a father of children who are approaching
this age. Nine year old drives parents truck to school
after missing the bus.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
Oh, I believe it, Yeah, believe it.
Speaker 1 (47:05):
This was in Penn Live, which is actually real, but
it was also in Cake Reports, but that's kak E.
Chris Martner wrote this, when you're talking about kids getting
in trouble, you call one guy, Mommer, Christopher Mohmer Matmer.
He is the best in the beeswax. Maybe they were
serving tacos in the school cafeteria that day, writes Best
(47:28):
in the Business journalists from penlive dot com Chris Montner.
Nine year old boy in Kansas drove his parents' truck
to school on Wednesday after he missed the school bus.
Cake Reports kak E reports that police in May's, which
some say stands for corn some don't, received a call
Wednesday morning about a young boy driving a white pickup truck.
(47:50):
After traveling to the scene, they were then redirected to
a nearby school, pray Woodman Elementary. Once there, police learned
that the boy had taken his parents' white Chevy truck
to make a three mile trip between the house and
the school. The boy told police that his dad was
already working his mom was out of town, so he
took the truck because he didn't want to miss school. Wow,
Sergeant Braiden Blackburn. Braiden Blackburn, braid in man, that's a
(48:14):
tough one, told news outlets that the youth parked better
than most adults parks. Wow, this was a new one
for said Sergeant Blackburn. This was a new one for us.
There were no collisions or traffic issues at all. Police
did not write any tickets. Blackburn said, he's sure he's
going to be in tons of trouble with his parents,
but that's all. So.
Speaker 2 (48:34):
I liked the I liked the way he got away
with this good nice work. He did it great.
Speaker 3 (48:40):
Also, what's what would be interesting for that nine year
old is like there's going to be certain things that
he's going to encounter. He's been in a car his
whole life, but like where to park is probably like hmm,
this is something I've never thought about before.
Speaker 1 (48:58):
I like that, do you know where he's.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
Gonna get there? And be like, I got to make
some decisions?
Speaker 1 (49:03):
Where do final step?
Speaker 2 (49:07):
I got myself all the way here? Now what do
I do?
Speaker 1 (49:10):
You know, I'm not a dad, but you know the
dad things that I do as a middle aged guy,
Like I park far away from THENT doors. Like if
there's like thirty spots deep in a home depot parking lot,
or you know, I will park. I'll park ten away
from everybody else. I'm like, I get the steps in
easy and easy out there and ding the car. That is,
I have a discharge for that. Yeah, yeah, that's charge. Yeah,
(49:35):
why not do it? But also nine years old, Like
when I was twelve, my dad taught me how to
drive a pickup truck in a field. He was like,
so I by the time I was sixteen, I had
been driving slowly in a grass field and a Chevy
S ten pickup truck for four or five years. That's
probably rated pretty cool. I got a point taking off
(49:56):
the Maryland Driver's test because I palmed the wheel parallel parking.
Speaker 2 (50:00):
Oh so stupid.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
Yeah, you're supposed to pass it hand over hand. And
I was looking back in the Corolla and I palmed it,
and there's I got to the deduction and I, oh, yeah,
oh is it?
Speaker 2 (50:11):
Oh is it a deduction for doing it too well?
Speaker 1 (50:16):
Yes? Sorry that I'm gonna get laid more than you
will parallel parker like hand over hand, good luck, pal
But that is true. I'm a good parallel Parker, and
I stand by that, and a woman on Jeopardy once
I was watching, they were like, you're from Baltimore, Maryland.
She goes yes where everybody can parallel park really, and
I still don't know why she said that. I've never
heard that reputation.
Speaker 3 (50:38):
I've never heard it either as a person who's lived
in Baltimore.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
I do think she wanted Jeopardy, so we got to
listen to she's really smart.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
