Speaker 1 (00:00):
Guess what a single strand of spaghetti is called.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
You know what? I just got allergic the way you
just said.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Hold on, they poop out little cubes.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Oh, I'm jealous.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Why that sounds super painful?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
We are made of stardust.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Did you know that klauds can weigh more than a
million pounds? A claus.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Launch Welcome back Earthlings to season three, episode three. See
how I got that right two times in a row.
Now that is going to be my entire goal moving forward.
I will never misgender the episodes again.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Wow, the episodes appreciate you.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Welcome back, guys.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
How are you today? In space?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Is very exciting day? Wouldn't you say?
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I'm really excited? When I was growing up?
Speaker 4 (00:54):
To preface this episode, a lot of people would call
my mom the Encyclopedia of useless in for me because
over the years, and there are many of them, even
though she ages like Benjamin Button, but she has acquired
quite the encyclopedia of useless facts. And it inspired today's
topic because who doesn't love a good random fact that
(01:16):
then you can pass along when there's an awkward silence in
an elevator.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I actually feel like the useless facts that I know,
kind of like I hooked you with them. Oh yeah,
I feel like there's some things that I was like,
did you know that? And you thought that I was interesting? Oh? Score,
I'm so glad I memorized those.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
You mean today? No, just oh of course?
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I love useless facts.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Wow, that didn't land well? Yea, clearly. So I'm obviously
excited to hear your use is facts, But truthfully, I'm
more excited to see your face when I read you mine.
What do you want to start with today?
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Why don't we start with some facts about food?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Okay? Will you do one and then I'll do one
and we'll take turns like this, Okay, I like this. Okay,
So you know Heinz, the Sauce Producers, Ketchup, Mustard, you know,
et cetera. Two things on the glass bottles of Ketchup,
which this is a fact that I learned growing up.
There's a little fifty seven etched into the bottle right
(02:17):
on the glass. Ones.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah, and if.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
You're at Johnny Rockets RP or whatever not RP, I'm
sure they're still wrong. But anyway, if you're somewhere where
they have glass Ketchup bottles, you if you hit or
tap where that fifty seven is, the sauce comes.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Out much easier.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
No way.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yeah, try it that I grew up doing because I
don't remember who it was that told me what they
told me. If you did that, and then I started doing,
I'm like, wow, that actually works. So then I found
out the actual truth of why the fifty seven is
on the bottle. And it turns out and that the
time that they started engraving it into the bottles, that
(02:55):
was the variety of pickles that they sold. They sold
fifty seven in different kinds of pickles, and they were
really proud of it.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yeah, it's not cool.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
That's super quiet idea. Are you not making that up? Okay?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
So, first of all, space news is completely true.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
No, it's not. It is.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Second of all.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Second of all, today we actually are sharing facts that
are in fact unusual but true.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
We know that mine are facts.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Mine are as well.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Please feel free to google them. I don't know fifty
seven pickles, Yeah, we'll see. Okay, I have one. Okay,
Bananas are actually botanically considered berries and strawberries are not.
Do you know why? No? Okay, because botanically a berry
is a simple fruit. That develops from the single ovary
(03:46):
of a flower, and it contains one or more seeds
that are distributed in the flesh. But the actual flesh
of the strawberry is not the fruit. The fruit of
the strawberries actually what we consider to be the seeds,
and within each one of those little fruit is actually
a seed. The flesh that we eat is actually the membrane.
It's pretty much like an extension of the flour itself.
(04:09):
It's a membrane, like a tissue that holds the fruit together.
So really, a strawberry is an aggregate fruit like a pineapple.
A pineapple isn't one fruit, It's actually a collection of fruit. Whoaw,
which makes sense if you don't know, if you've seen
those videos, yeah, where they take the little pieces off
like the pineapple hawks.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Yeah, that rona time. We learned a lot of stuff,
which we'll get to later. But anyway, all right, my
next food fact.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Are you ready? This one? I really love. Okay, if
you go back to previous.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Seasons of In Our Own World, you'll see that we
had an amazing episode about veganism, which somebody is very qualified.
Mark or Borges's amazing and this fact has to do
with something that we talked about there. Chickpeas and almonds
contain almost as much protein as steak.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
So to put it into perspective, one hundred grams of
steak can cont up to twenty five grams of protein. Okay, okay,
the same amount of chickpeas contains twenty one grams and
the same amount of almonds twenty eight grams.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Wait, so almonds can take more contain more protein than
steak does. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
This guy named Greg McFarlane, he's a director of the
Vegan Australia. He was studying this and you know, was
working with this company called Better Health to do these
kinds of studies.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Wow, I didn't know that. Look at that. I can't
wait to use that one.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's a good one.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
I love that. Okay, cool, this one? I really I
love all of them, so I probably shouldn't say that
before all of them, but anyway I do. I really
love this one though. Guess what a single strand of
spaghetti is called?
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Eh, spaghett you're close spaghetto?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
A spaghetto? Would you like a spaghetto? When you try
to see if it's thenks spaghetto?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Who in the world have one grand one strand of spaghetti.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Or ask for when you're testing to see if the
noodle is finished, don't you lift up a spaghetto.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I guess in that context it's eating one ritz cracker.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
You love it. Yeah, but it's not called a writ
It's just a ritz cracker. It's called a spuggett.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
I'm gonna call it a spuggett.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Okay, whatever you want, all right.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Okay, this is my last food fact.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Oh okay, yeah, I'm not I don't have like five more.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Sure you're the chef. No, you're the chef.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
You can say as many food as you want.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
And it's the wrong one.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Okay, this one's actually an awesome food factor. Useless information.
So you know how when you're making pasta talking about
spaghetto and spaghetti and spaghetti it sometimes it takes a
long time to boil the water.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
You know a lot of people don't.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
You don't got time for that, right, So you know
that you can actually boil a bunch of water and
then freeze it for later when you want to make spaghetti.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
What I'm sorry, hold on, roll it back. What did
you say, because I'm pretty sure you just said I
could have leftover boiled water to boil later. And are
you just are you space losing me? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I did.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I did.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Wow, but it almost.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
No, because no, it didn't work. It did not work.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
That that concerned that I just lost some brains.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I thought that you were trying to pull fast one
on me and it wasn't gonna work. Okay, So you
know what, this is actually a great segue to the
solience section of this little, fun little fact game that
we're playing. Speaking of water and no this is not fake,
just prefacing. You can actually boil and freeze water at
(08:05):
the same time. What do you mean you can freeze
and boil water at the same time. Yeah, the same water,
the same water.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
How is that?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
It's a phenomenon and it's called triple point and it's
where the temperature and pressure are just right for water
to exist in its three states.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
But how is that? How could you regulate those two?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Sure it's some funny little machine that they.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Can't just drop some ship like that and then not saying.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
What do I look like to you scientist?
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Like a hot pot situation?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Believe a space commander. No, it's not hot pot.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
You know what, I just got allergic the what you
just said. Hold on, that was a real and really reactions.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Okay, but this is real. Look up triple point, look up,
triple point.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Is that like three points in Miami. That's what it is.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
It's like people like in a cave on that are
existing in two temperatures.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Moving on, alright, my turn. Wow, I'm allergic to your bullshit.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Good thing. Everything I'm saying is fact.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
I'm gonna have to do some more research on that.
All right, sunsets on Mars are blue?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Really?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Yeah? Wow?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
I didn't know that. Isn't that cool? That's really cool? Why?
I mean, because they there must be something in the atmosphere,
like the way that the light comes in through the Okay,
I don't know why. Okay, how's this? A day on
Venus is longer than a year on Venus.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Oh, I have that one too, because guess what, Oh,
a day on Earth is twenty three point nine four
three hours, but on Venus a day last two hundred
and forty three Earth days.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah, which, which, yes, to your point, a day on
Venus is much longer than Earth. But did you know
that their days are longer than their own years? Venus
takes longer to rotate on its own axis than it
does to orbit the end Hi your sun.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
As confusing as that is, a day on penis is
way more confusing.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Okay, anyway, moving on. Wait, did that count as one
because I'm ready to give you another? No? Okay, cool,
because that was like a collapse. That's great. So did
you know that clouds can weigh more than a million
pounds a cloud the water? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Okay, that makes schunse. Okay, well I got one for
your clouds. Okay, did you know?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
I know you know this, But did you know that
in the components of what makes like our skin, our flesh,
our bones, our nipples, all that stuff, we are made
of stardust. We are made from the same things that
our stars are made of.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I did? I did know?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That?
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Is that amazing? Yeah? We are one. It's really cute. Cute, Ye,
like cute, We're made of star stuff.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Cute.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah, it's like a cute thing. That fast about it
is fascinating. But like, aren't isn't everything made up of
the same composition or like more or less the same composition? Yes,
Like look at the table of elements. It's not that many.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
I don't want to look at that anymore really anyway?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. On the human thing, a
single human cell contains approximately six feet of DNA. Ah,
oh what you knew that?
Speaker 4 (11:19):
No, I was thinking about our sorry, I was thinking
of where I thought of that measurement from. And at
first I remember that, like our intestines are like long
as hell, like that.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
There's there's a fact there about like the intestines circling
the earth a few times something like this, Oh yeah,
is that it?
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Or like our intestines can cross the United it's the
DNA definitely not the earth.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah, and you were making fun of me for the water.
She just said our intestines can go around the air.
It was okay, because you need to take a break
whatever intestinia.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Okay, this is a cool one.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
They're all cool.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Speaking about our bodies. Cotenants shift at about the same
rate as our fingernails grow.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Wow, that's a lot benji Okay, that's wild right. Also,
like this is not a fun fact. This is just
a sad fact. The majority of maps are like completely misrepresented.
Like Africa's way bigger than it is pictured in any map.
I think you can actually fit like other continents in
(12:27):
Africa count An. I don't, I don't, but they need
new ones. Oh this is you know that. Maybe this
is how I got confused. The average person. Now I
look this up right, I'm like, what do they think
the average person walks? Right? Because this is the average
person walks, And like, what do I think the average
person walks? Is seventy five hundred steps a day? You know? Right?
(12:47):
Not in this economy. Nobody's walking seventy five hundred steps
a day on average. But okay, let's think. Let's think
that the average person walks the equivalent of five times
around the Earth in their lifetime. Wow, yeah, pretty cool.
You know.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
I always had this thought when I was growing up
about if you would watch us from above, like where
we walked to And I thought about how the majority
of the time that human beings walk, we're going like
from the same place to the same place, in the
same place.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
And I always had a thought that was, like, what
if we.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Use that time in which we commuted back and forth
in the same place to keep going other places.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
There's something really deep in there. I don't quite know
what it is, but I know it's there. I can
feel it. Yeah, Okay, my turn.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
In ten minutes, a hurricane releases more energy than all
of the world's nuclear weapons combined.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's so crazy. Why don't we harness that energy? That's
like when you think about dryers, the common modern dryer
is a massive waste of energy because you're using all
of this energy to create heat hot air that then
you just expel back into whatever the environment, which is
why they don't have like heatless dryers, right, Like, is
it Switzerland one of the S countries? Forgive my ignorance,
(14:04):
one of the S countries, it's like illegal to have
a vented dryer.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Oh yeah, because.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Ventless dryers use a different form of heating that's like
just more cost effective. And if people, if you didn't
know this, I guess this isn't an unusual fact, but
it is a fact. The average dryer, the average modern
vented dryer, takes up more energy, consumes more energy than
like I think all of your other appliances combined. Something
crazy like this. Yeah, if that's the case, why don't
(14:29):
we find a way to harness the energy of hurricanes
Because that's.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Insane because there are probably people who would want to
harness the energy of hurricanes for really bad for.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Nuclear I mean, like the comparison is bad enough. No,
but I'm just saying in general, that's really cool. You're welcome,
thank you. Okay, cool. A cubic inch of human bone. Now,
now this is a little wild, right.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
I love that band.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
A cubic inch of human bone, of human bone, that's
a good I think a cubic inch is a good
band name.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
But yeah, they open for the nine snails.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Uh huh. But a cuban inch of human bone can
bear the cuban No way, I can't help it.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Okay, bone, A cubic inch have human bone can bear
the weight of five big up trucks.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Did you know that? So why doesn't your break so easy?
That's what I thought that. I was like, Oh, it
must be a force from impact, right, Like that's but
I'm assuming if you just gently place the five pickup
trucks over the cubic inch of bones, it says a
human being is capable of withithstanding compression forces up to
eighteen thousand pounds per square inch. Wild, we're strong like bull.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Yeah, we're strong. Leg bone. Then I get my door
caught in the shower and.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
It explodes, So explain that that's such an unbelievable I said,
my door cut in the shower, my.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Finger, yo, Gemini have rough.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
That story is so unbelievable that there are people still
in our lives that we.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Talked about it.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
It's not on our injury, but it's so real, so real, it's.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
So meshed up.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Can't feel it and it hurts at the same time,
like the water that can boil and frozen at the
same time. Anyway, let's move on to some animal fox
and get out of this freaking bone gore Hole okay, whatever, Okay,
I'm starting this.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
One another band name. Oh yeah, gore Hole. That's good.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
There at the after party for the nine inch nails
of the Cuban. In the Cuban is the Cubic Okay
(16:52):
are you ready for this?
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
A snail can sleep for up to three years ones, yeah, consecutively.
And in other news, in my next life, I would
love to be a snare.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
That's wild. Isn't that cool? That makes me sad a
little bit?
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Why because we step on them and it's like, damn.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It could have been and we think they're in the way,
and they're just like trying to catch some z's and
here we are crushing their life.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's what do I say?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
We're in the yard and you too watch off it
and then when it happens, I literally dropped to my knees,
like if I just lost my firstborn son. It's sad.
And also you feel the crunch and you hear the crunch.
Something about that experience is not not good. Okay, cool
wombat poop, not a wombat poop. Wombat poop Back to
the Cuban inch is cube shaped. They poop out little cubes.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Oh, I'm jealous.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Why that sounds super painful? Well?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
What shape for their their buttholes?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Is it like a plate o mold?
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Like?
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Maybe their buttholes are square?
Speaker 1 (17:57):
I don't know. I didn't really, it didn't occur.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Do they look up and then they shape it into
a square because they like are trying to fly.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
No, they don't know, Emily, they don't shape it.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
They're just going to play mind cubes.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Okay, it sounds very it sounds painful.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Explain to me how cube sized poop could come out
of a round sized booty.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I don't know. That's a good one.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I think we need to have a full up episode.
On this to like get some more details.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
The next episode. We will let you know updates. But yeah,
I didn't. I didn't, you know, I wasn't inspired to
check out the rectime of water.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
I have a question for you. If you put a
square sized mold in your boom boom and then you poop,
is it gonna come out square?
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I'm sure the edges would come out flats.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Where too comfortable?
Speaker 6 (18:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
We really sure.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Okay, it's your turn. I think you should go for every.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
I'm gonna dream about this, this booty whole question. For
every one human, there are two hundred million insects.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
Believable. Yeah, that was just a warm up one the
next No, I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I thought that was pretty incredible because genuinely, like, you know,
we tend to be people who are like insects, you know, yeah,
I mean there's like so many, but it's like micro
macro like they imagine that we're like trying to look
for like bigger and better universes.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
When it's like, imagine, how crazy. What's the number if
you were the sizer and two hundred million insects for
every one human? Also, like I'm looking for the wrong
people to join my cult. All I need to do
is can carry like thirty times or way, something crazy
like that.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
I could be making that up, you see.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Don't give the fact the.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Facts, all right, something crazy like that. Next. Okay, all right,
sorry about that. Hippo sweat is pink and it contains
natural sunscreen and antibiotics.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
That's sweet. Those are all things that are great for us.
But you know, it's not trying to go absorb some
hippo sweat. They're very violent. Oh really, yeah, they killed.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
They're so cute.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I know they're so cute, but they're like us.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Hm hmm with their square teeth. Why are their teeth square? Well,
they don't. They definitely don't boop square anyway. Okay, you
want to go or should I go?
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah, I'll go again. Okay Ooh this one I thought
was really.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Interesting because you know how much I love like Egyptian
culture and things like that, and this lord me as
a counterpart to this fact. The only domestic animal not
mentioned in the Bible is a cat.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
Wow, it's not weird. Why because they're from the double
love you, Leona, my little baby. I love cats.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
But let's be real, No, but I guess I figured, which, again,
like the follow up, I would need to do some
research on, But I guess I figured that cats are
like have kind of like been around. If they're mentioning
like dogs and other animals, how could they not mention?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
So did they not say they were cats? On Noah's
Ark or something?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
The question is, do you think I've read the whole Bible?
Speaker 6 (20:58):
No?
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Yes, actually didn't? Yes, you have?
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Yeah, I probably have.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Oh I have?
Speaker 2 (21:04):
I blocked it out. Oh no, it's okay, I've lost
another you and thens today she practiced.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Then before we start fun, there's a species of jellyfish.
Another thing that maybe we shouldn't harness based off of
your train of thought, but another thing that we probably should.
A species of jellyfish that is technically immortal can revert
to its juvenile form. Don't ask me why I said
it like that. It just seemed appropriate. But isn't that
so cool? They could be like, nah, I'm done adulting,
(21:34):
goes back to infant stage.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Say what we're time?
Speaker 4 (21:44):
So that's a that's an immortal name. That's like if
you're name that immortal?
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Crazy though, that's amazing.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
Constantly, I'm sad we can't do that though, because that's
place a. Speaking of cats, this was another cat related fact.
So a cat's kidneys are so efficient under the correct conditions,
they can actually filter salt water.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
They can drink salt water and filter nice. In the
Bible though, Okay, sharks are older than trees. The pause
tells me you are so thrall. I'm thinking because I
(22:27):
don't like what do you mean? Like?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Is this like from Charles Darwin's MySpace?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
No? No, Like they're older than trees. They've been around
on Earth longer than trees have, which makes sense. Good.
What do you The same people who told you about
everything you read the internet? They know, they know everything,
including the sharks are older than trees. Cool, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
I have a lot of respect for sharks.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I know you have a lot of respect for oceans
in general, the ocean in general. Is it considered oceans
or is it at once? Yeah? Right, they're multiples, I
mean all it all. It doesn't all touch Yeah, okay
whatever ocean apostrophe as closed apostrophe, no parentheses. Uh, you've
taught me a lot about respecting the ocean, and I
really appreciate that. Yeah, because I fear it a little bit.
(23:13):
But now I feel like I have a better understanding.
As a results of everything you've passed on, I have
another sea animal one. Okay, go ahead. C Cucumbers can
eject their internal organs. Is a defense mechanism?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Do they survive? They die?
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I assume that if it's a defense mechanism, they survive.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
If I could shoot you with my if my small
intestine and just whip it wrapped back in me, that's lit,
jump rope with it.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Don't got to take sure to the gym. That sounds good,
sounds disgusting and smelly. Dolphins have names for each other exactly.
And cows can move in regional accents.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
That's like the Highland.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
They're like, ooh, and what do the British cows sound like?
I are my? But how cute is that the Cuban
cow suit?
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Well that was good?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Okay, last one, I promise, I just I really get
to your polar bear skin is actually black and.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Their furs at.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Oh wow, yeah, that's so cool. They're not you white,
they're technically black with clear fur.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
You know what they are cold?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
That's what they are.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
No, they're not.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
They're warm because they're polar bears anyway. Okay, well that
was fine, I think so now onto the So sorry,
I almost let you go. How could I do that?
I have a game for and there are right and
wrong answers. Actually there's only one right answer for each
of these. But that's okay, okay. So this is actually
something that I love and you and I always talk
(25:08):
about it. I think you love it too. But how
the plural forms of specific? I'm okay. What is a
flock of crows called a murder? Yes? Okay, this is
specific to Canada. What is a group of bunnies called.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Specific to Canada?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah? Yeah, it's a regional, regional name.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Oh, fluffers, It's called a fluffyl It's called a flufful
of bunny. I really didn't know that, no, I said,
I said, I said fluffers.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
But that's crazy. You're really close. What is a group
of porcupines called? Oh? This one is also maybe when
you could guess, yeah, porcupines, a prickle, a frickle. Okay,
this I love. This is probably one of my favorite ones.
(26:07):
A group of ferrets. You're not gonna get it.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Let me just oh wait, let me guess. So baddies
a business starts with a being a business. Yeah, you
know why because they're in the business of stealing your
ship and doing weird ship since when ferrets literally notoriously
go through your stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
And steal it? Really? Yeah, another fact if you didn't know,
look at that. Okay, what is a group of owls called?
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Oh, that's called the It's called a hoot nanny. It's
called a hoot a parliament. No way, that makes so
much parliament. And when they're all together they wear powdered wigs.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
They should they should? Okay. A group of jellyfish, oh,
a bikini bottom A smack a smack of jellyfish, that's
what it's called.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
The thing is like, that's the last like on a
amount of that you wouldn't imagine associated with.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Jelly fishing of jellyfish or something. Nope, okay. A group
of flamingos.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Oh I knew this one at one point I forgot
because it's like pretty or something.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Right, what a group of flamingos is.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Called the party?
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Flamboyant?
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Oh yeah, they're so gay A flamboyant.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Isn't that so good? So cute? Speaking of fun fact
about flamingos, do you know that there are more fake
flamingos in the world than real ones because of laon
the core.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:35):
I think my uncle is responsible for like twenty percent
of that because for a period of time growing up,
he did something called flamingoing, or he would put a
bunch of plastic flamingos in the trunk of his car,
drive to our houses, steak the yard with.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Them, and then drive away. Wait, that's amazing, Lorenzo.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Shut up. Wow, we should definitely break that back. They're
probably souse somewhere. Okay, there anifacts.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Yay, that was fun.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I know who do you know what?
Speaker 4 (28:01):
Well, obviously everybody knows what a group of geese is called.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
A gaggle of geese. Yeah, I love that one.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Okay, that's a fave.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
We've done quite a bunch. I think this is our
last mini segment of the facts.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Oh yeah, which is what human beings?
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Human being?
Speaker 6 (28:31):
Human beings relating of the dgor and the most invasive Yeah, totally,
and the most smelly on the inside, according to.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I'll start with something light. The cigarette lighter was actually
invented before the match.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Wow are you sure? Yes?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
I was there what it was?
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Yeah, that makes no sense, I know or how like
we've been using flint rocks long before we had fuel.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Yes, but like matches as they come from friction.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Right, But yes, but matches are matches, so technically like
the concept of a match and the box and striking
it on the box? Was that concept of utility that
you know? That that that's you know.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Silly little humans. Ooh, that's cool. I didn't know that
the inventor of the frisbee, whose name is Fred Morrison,
which I thought you'd get a kick out, was turned
into a frisbee after he died. He literally requested to
be turned into a frisbee.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I'm so sad I did not meet this man. I
am so grateful to this man. I will be turned
into a drum set and my skin will be pulled
into most amazing toms and my bone that can apparently
withstand this weight that Jem says will be the best
(29:59):
rim for my snack.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
I never think you'll be able to play me as a.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Drum set, and I will going. You're sick. You know
that you are sick. You started it.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
You're praising for becoming a frisbee and I can't become
a drums. Funny dude, drums were literally made from skin
skin on wood.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I understand, I really understand, trust me, but ill I
know that there are drums that are human skin. I know,
but that's disgusting. All right, I will not honor that.
Wish you better hope I die first.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Moving on, that's really cool.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
Congratulations to that guy. I fred that he's being thrown
around the world. This one actually was one of the
ones that based on when we started the episode that
I always knew growing up because my mom shared it
with me. It's about the inventor of velcro. His name
was George Demstra. Anyway, this just kind.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Of inspired this whole episode actually that specific fact.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Yeah, also just like the feeling of that ooh when
you learn a little fuck like this. But anyway, so
he had a poodle, and you know they have like
really short curly hair, and he would walk the poodle
off and love the poodle. And those little things what
are they called, like ge sasas. I don't know what
they're called. I folded on that. But there are those
little balls that when you walk through certain grassy areas
(31:20):
that get stuck.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
To like pay your clothes.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
It's like a little ball with like lusty seeds, spiny
things on it, and but it.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Called like Spanish something or I literally.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Had it on in my pants yesterday. Sometimes on the
beach too, it happens. But anyway, so when he would
walk his poodle where he lived, he realized that the
poodle was consistently covered in these little balls when he
got back home, but it was really hard to remove them.
It was really hard to remove them. So he cut
a piece of the hair that was connected to the
(31:50):
ball and looked under a microscope and saw that the
hair was so short and curly, and the ball at
the end of it it was spiny, but it had
a tiny little hook at the end, so it would
hook around the curl, you know, so well that when
you tried to pull it apart it was really really
difficult to do. So, so then when he saw that,
he said, oh man, what a great alternative to like
(32:12):
an adhesive that you can still pull apart and not.
That's why velcrow has one fuzzy kind of side like
the poodle and one spiky kind of side like the
weird thing from.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
So basically we should be looking at stuff under microscopes
more because we might be multimillionaires. Yeah, super cool. I
love that.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Or we should get a poodle and walk it.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Yeah, well, table that one, okay, all right. The word
of nerd was actually coined by doctor Seuss in nineteen
fifty in the book If I Ran the Zoo, and
it was used to describe an imaginary creature. It had
no negative connotation. It was just a nerd was like
a trefilo tree.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Interesting, Yeah, I wonder when that changed.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
We'll tell you. We're gonna have to follow this up
because I have a question.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
The bad F word to describe homosexuals.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, that was like a cigarette, right, Uh.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
It's the short form form is still called a cigarette
in some place parts of the UK. But no, actually
that was a it's really dark. Actually the what F
A G G O T. I'm not gonna say it
actually is is a collection of sticks of wood. Oh yeah,
and I think it had something to do with like
burning yea, oh god, yeah, really bad. But but yeah
(33:25):
that's actually not that's where the world to come from.
But no, this is this is cooler, This is better.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Clearly inching towards October over.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
Oh yeah, that's true. Eyeballs and swagger. They were both
coined by Shakespeare.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Oh, I knew that, amongst others, I knew that Shakespeare
invented the word eyeball.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
M swagger and swagger had like more of a negative connotation,
but it really was still the same thing. It was
like about the walk.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I heard that Shakespeare was actually a woman, and I've
heard I've heard a.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Lot of theories about Shakespeare.
Speaker 4 (33:53):
Yeah, yeah, anyway, Okay, this is a cool one. So
the invention of the post it note, oh it was
a failed adhesive experiment and also a church choir singer's frustration.
So what happened is in nineteen sixty eight, this scientist,
his name was Spencer Silver. He was researching glues and
(34:16):
adhesives for the aerospace industry because they have to do
like different kind of testing on that. And he accidentally
discovered like microspheres that stuck lightly to surfaces of things,
but they were easily removed and like paste it back
for like a certain amount of times, because you know,
a post a note has like a shelf, like you
can only take it on it off so many times
because of dust and stuff like that. But anyway, so
(34:40):
in that search he started to use this like a
little piece of paper with that adhesive on it as
a bookmark in his church choir book, you know.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
And like I said, he noticed it.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
After a while it would fall out, but if he
didn't remove it, it would have ruined.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
The pages of the book.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
And then he started to write notes on it and
like give notes to his friends and stuff, and realized,
and this is his quote, it's not just a bookmark.
It's a whole new way to communicate. Wow, that's the
post it note. Wasn't invent the nation of space, religion
and gossips?
Speaker 1 (35:17):
I really like that. Yeah, the post it note. It's
such a good invention. Did you know that Cleopatra lived
closer in time to the moon landing than she did
to the building of the Great Pyramid. It's a short distance,
but yeah, whoaah. So she lived around two thousand years ago,
while the Pyramid of Giza was built about four thousand,
(35:38):
five hundred years ago, and the moon landing accorded to
nineteen sixty nine, which was about two thousand years after
her death. So there's like a five hundred.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Year that's really amazing.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
Yeah, puts things into perspective. She I mean two thousand
years wasn't long was a long time ago.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
But also, wow, that's that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
Also when I think back about the when I think
back about what we understand about like Egypt and Cleopatra
and her era and how advanced tumans wereds like what
happened that we went through the Middle Ages and the
Renaissance period and like people peeing and oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
like how did we degrade and tell it well like that,
you know, I mean like we were preserving aliens body, Yeah, honestly,
(36:16):
I think so Aliens.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
They were like, you know what, we tried this earth,
let's get back to let's put get back to Blargan.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
We gave you the Pyramids.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Okay, they actually have examples of like really elaborate and
amazing surgeries on.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Walls and yeah, pretty amazing. Okay, so this like that
would be fun.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Growing up again, I was able to travel a lot
and like you pick up some fun facts, like remember
when we all went on the families Yeah, on the
family trip, and like you know, some tour guides have
like interesting facts and stuff like that, and these are
some of the other ones that I knew from growing up.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
I thought that were cool, all right, so the saying
sleep tight, I was there for this actually yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
And speaking of the like you said, like those times
when it's like wow, like we feel like we were
so ahead, but we really weren't. So they used to
sleep on ropes and there was like woven ropes and
before you go to bed every night you would have
to go and pull the ropes and tighten them, you know,
so that your your mattress wouldn't like slink down or
(37:16):
you would be uncomfortable. So the saying like sleep tight
and like, oh, you know, pull your ropes and I
hope we have a good night's sleep and your bed
is like pulled tight.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
What about the bed bugs, Oh, don't let the bed
bugs bite. Well that's that's because.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
They had they had bed bugs awful, you know what,
knock on one. I've never had a bed bug incident
to this day, and I've and I've slept in quite
a few hotels and really not one because I don't
want to. But weird, how that's a thing, right, I.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
Mean, I guess I didn't realize like we could still
be faced with that issue.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Oh, absolutely unlocked a.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Hole in me. There was like there was an article
recently about places having infestations that we're not going certain
places this year. Go ahead, Okay, did you know what
I thought? I thought of you, especially for this one.
Did you know that there's a basketball court in the
US Supreme Court building and they make jokes about how
it's the highest court of the lamp.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
That's really funny but also very cool.
Speaker 1 (38:13):
It's on the top four.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
So what a random thing?
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Yeah, random thing? Yeah, why a basketball court? But cool? Yeah,
they truld to like an in house therapist or something.
Ye who knows, they probably do.
Speaker 4 (38:24):
Okay, I have another cool saying one. Okay, this one
I really love, so the saying the cold shoulder, right, so,
oh yeah, I can love back in olden time because
a lot of people say like, ohways, give me the
cold shoulder, and like, you don't really know the origin
of this stuff, and not everything has an origin. But
at the same time, it's it's cool to think about
(38:45):
giving somebody the cold shoulder was a real thing because
you when somebody would come visit you in your home,
you know, you had a guest if they overstayed their welcome,
and you want it to be super passive aggressive and
not have to confront them. You would take a cold shoulder,
like a cut of mutton of mutton, right of meat
(39:05):
and put it on the mantle on the fireplace, and
if the guests saw.
Speaker 2 (39:09):
It, they be like, I gotta go, gotta.
Speaker 4 (39:12):
Jet, because then they that was their indication that it's like,
oh girl, it's time to go. And obviously the longer
it was there, like it would smell and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
But ill, but I wish they were like better.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
Even pumpkin, Yeah, that's actually cute. That should be like
the Latin one. If you see pumpkin in our house
and it's not November.
Speaker 1 (39:34):
Get out, get out? Yeah right, you and I don't
kick anybody out. People will be there way beyond our
level of exhaustion, will be like it's okay, We're okay,
stay on the couch if you want.
Speaker 4 (39:46):
Usually people were like comfortable falling asleep around or whatever.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
You especially what mine. Yes, miss Sleeponia. You guys are
out there that have been to our house. You know
who's Miss Sleeponia? Yeah it's em Okay, this one follows
the last one. I also thought of you, okay, and
that's why I put it here. Did you know that
the twitter bird from the icon or I guess it's
no X whatever. I still call it Twitter. The Twitter
(40:11):
bird has a name. What is it? His name is
Larry after Larry Bird from the Celtics.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
Oh wow, Larry Bird.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
Twitter co founder is from Boston.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Larry Bird is an icon iconic.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Well that's the Twitter bird name is Larry old school player.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
All right, do you know what karaoke means sing? I'll
give you a clue.
Speaker 4 (40:32):
In Japanese singing for people who aren't singers, it means
empty orchestra.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Wow, makes no sense, but interesting because if anything, you're
playing to an instrumental track, so like it really would
be a filled orchestra.
Speaker 4 (40:50):
I think it's a kind of like playing on the
fact of like you're playing to a track, so it's
not a real orchestra.
Speaker 2 (40:57):
It's like an empty orchestra, like you're just singing.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
That's really cool. I know that. I like that one.
I like that one. The average person spends a collection
of six months of their life waiting for red lights
to turn green and twenty four years to sleep.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
And if you're in Miami, it's an extra tag on
an extra year.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
For real or la imagine la, Oh, that's not they're
the ones that bring the spike all the way up.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
That's crazy. That's a long time.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
That's a long time.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
That's a long time. That's a whole last baby.
Speaker 1 (41:29):
That Okay, yeah, I do not think of it like that.
Speaker 2 (41:31):
Like that's like imagine it's.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
A formed human. It's crazy. Okay.
Speaker 2 (41:36):
This one is a fact, and it's also a challenge
for you.
Speaker 1 (41:39):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (41:40):
There's not a word in the dictionary that rhymes with months.
Speaker 1 (41:45):
I think that's false.
Speaker 4 (41:46):
Actually, okay, well maybe it is false if she doesn't
think of one.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Well, the fact that I can't think of one month,
because I'm pretty sure the only two words that you
can't rhyme with her silver and orange door hinge. No,
that's not a word. That's two pilver nilver no silver.
You're making up wards.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
All right, let's move on, But everybody think about that. Yeah,
we'll get back on that. Okay.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
I feel like it's a verb. I'll remember. I'll get
back to you. Okay, this is my last one.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 1 (42:20):
The shortest war in history lasted thirty eight minutes, which
it's that seems kind of long. That seems kind of long, right.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
I thought you're gonna be like lasted three seconds.
Speaker 1 (42:29):
Maybe the way that they're qualifying is like you're actually
you actually have to get to like where they're having
the war. You know, it can't be like the war
they I don't know what war was it. It was
the Anglo Zanzibar War of eighteen ninety six. I know
nothing about it either.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
Don't worry Zanzibar.
Speaker 1 (42:47):
Oh I lied. I do have one more also, I
thought of you. See how much I think about you.
The world's largest grand piano was built by a fifteen
year old whoa Adrian man of New Zealand. It is
over eighteen feet long and weighs one point two tons,
which is great.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
That's amazing.
Speaker 4 (43:02):
Yeah, and people are amazing, and they're getting scary and
scary and cool. All right, So I have a couple
of things to share with you with me, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
Okay, because I'm done sharing. That's good, all right, it's
my turn now. And you know how much I love
the dark and mysterious. Shout out mister Ballin. You know,
we live and we die. So I wanted to share
some death ah. Of course, of course, Encyclopedia of useless
death facts that are gonna blow your mind? How do
you feel about it, all right, I'm here for it.
(43:30):
I'm gonna get quick. Don't worry because you're painless. Yeah,
well no, I don't know about painless all right.
Speaker 4 (43:35):
On average, one hundred people choke to death on ballpoint
pens every.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Year, So please the world, yeah or the.
Speaker 4 (43:44):
US, no, around the world, take out better take ballpoint
pens out of your mouths.
Speaker 2 (43:49):
I'm I'm also guilty of this. But you know we
now within three days of death, the enzymes that once
digested your food then start to eat you.
Speaker 1 (43:58):
I'm not surprised by that, I figure.
Speaker 4 (44:00):
So it's like pretty interesting though, right, No, okay, okay,
this one I thought was really interesting and kind of grim.
The last sense you lose when you die is you're hearing.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
That's fucking awful.
Speaker 2 (44:14):
That's awful, right, that is awful. You're like, they're like,
but you're hearing dead and then you go okay. Two
more so, Victorian dresses, like in olden times you have
to wear the corset and the liner and the thing
and then that all that stuff. They were actually death traps.
Speaker 4 (44:30):
This is for real, yeah, because what happened is that
not only did they have like all these weird different
things on them that made them extra flammable. But when
the dresses caught fire, it was almost impossible to get
them out. So like that was actually really high cause
of death in.
Speaker 2 (44:46):
That era for women.
Speaker 1 (44:48):
I think I knew that one. Yeah, it's screwed up.
Speaker 4 (44:51):
And at parties, girl spanks who we learned this too
when we were on that trip, that they would go
to the corner of the ball, Bougie my a. They
would go to the corner of the ball and pee,
go dress hunt and everything and just pee in the corner.
And they'd just be like, piss in the corner. Well
they like in a Yeah, they'd.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
Try, but under all that drama, how you're gonna make
it in the basket?
Speaker 1 (45:13):
You know, there was drizzle, throw it out, like they
would just throw out the straight pee into the streets
and stuff.
Speaker 4 (45:19):
Yeah, no, no, okay, last one. This is what I'm saying,
last one for death.
Speaker 1 (45:25):
She wanted to.
Speaker 4 (45:26):
On average, one American per year dies from being hit
by frozen poop from airplanes. So when you go poop
poo on the airplane, that blue liquid, you know, eventually
it goes down into a place, but then it freezes
with the temperature and the liquid that it uses. And
then depending on the flight and where you're flying, there
are certain zones where you can open and you have
(45:50):
to release, you know, not only for weight, for other reasons,
your waste. So sometimes obviously humans water and if you're
you know, a place that they don't anticipate you to be,
you get hit by that. But it's so hard and
from so high that the poop will kill you.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
You realize that that's that's the worst way we can
bring a basically flying pile of metal into into the sky.
But we don't know what to do with our poop.
The best we could do is just kill it. Kill
one American, kill one American with it. That's wild.
Speaker 4 (46:24):
I mean that's a low number, but it's just such
a terrible way to go. Much like, oh my god,
you know, I'm so sorry about you know, uncle whatever.
It's like, what happened to him? It's like, what are
you going to say? I'm so sorry? He's like, you know, oh,
I got smacked with a turd.
Speaker 1 (46:39):
That's like that show that that used to be popular
back in the day, that like A Thousand Ways to Die.
I loved that show. Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (46:46):
All right, moving on from death. Now yeah, the high note. Well,
I'm not going to say one more fact.
Speaker 1 (46:52):
What I am going to say is everybody's as what
I'm saying when they were saying, I'm seeing all out
of space network, all right, are you ready to find
out what's going on out of space?
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (47:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (47:06):
Are you okay?
Speaker 4 (47:08):
You're not gonna scold me for it because these are
one hundred percent true?
Speaker 2 (47:11):
Just kidding, they are about ten percent.
Speaker 4 (47:16):
But honestly, please feel free after watching Space News to
google this and you'll see the actual headline. It's there,
I promise, yeah there, all right, Blue Origin drone ship
arrives in Florida. I have the first glen launch. Nine
out of ten people report, really Florida. People are still
trying to do shit in Florida.
Speaker 1 (47:37):
That one has to be drin. Yeah, am I doing?
I lie? Did I lie?
Speaker 2 (47:44):
The Hubble telescope spotted a sparkling cosmic fossil three million
light years away, and it was able to capture an image.
It somewhat resembles beautiful glitter like what we have here
on Earth, but in space, and it has officially been
named the first gay fi.
Speaker 4 (48:01):
Just don't put it in your purse. You know, glitter
gets everywhere space news.
Speaker 2 (48:05):
Yeah, what do they call glitter? The herpes of arts
and crafts? Oh my gosh, all right, artemist.
Speaker 1 (48:13):
It actually is really bad by the way, for the environment. Glitter. Yeah,
it's a bunch of microplastics. Release them. Told the water
really bad. All right, let's go there there is biodegradable glitter.
There you go.
Speaker 4 (48:24):
Okay, get that for your kids. There you go, bui
itegradable glitter.
Speaker 2 (48:27):
Guys in space or on Earth, Artemis three astronauts will
walk on the Moon with a four G equipped space suit.
Imagine you want hate know that.
Speaker 4 (48:36):
They made sure to also install high quality speakers near
the ears inside their helmets and a.
Speaker 1 (48:41):
Ring light on the Moon to.
Speaker 4 (48:43):
Make sure they get a cute TikTok dance video before
having to return.
Speaker 1 (48:49):
Is the speakers real? No? Okay, sorry, just checking because
that would be very cool.
Speaker 4 (48:53):
All right, Well, they have to have those in there
to communicate, but TikTok or not, which I wouldn't be
surprised to be honest.
Speaker 1 (49:00):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (49:01):
A new super Earth or twin Earth.
Speaker 4 (49:03):
Has been discovered in a nearby Solar system's habitable zone.
According to NASA, the planet designated as TI seven fifteen. Oh,
this is where Elon Musk is getting his ideas for
his kid's names.
Speaker 2 (49:16):
Is about one and a half times as wide as Earth.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
The overwhelming question from researchers has been how much does
Netflix cost monthly?
Speaker 2 (49:25):
On TI seven fifteen? More information to come cheaper hopefully,
And this has been spaceless.
Speaker 1 (49:33):
Wow, let me just tell you you're very good at space news.
Speaker 4 (49:37):
I don't do anything. I just read the news in space.
Speaker 1 (49:43):
Yeah, you're right, you're well. You're the best space news
reporter i've seen this side of the stratosphere. Thank you,
You're welcome. You're welcome. That was fun. Yes, I'm going
to hope to memorize most of those. They do use
of his little party tricks later.
Speaker 4 (49:57):
Yeah, I think you know, Look, our world is really unique.
There are facts that are good to know. That are
some that we just learn along the way, But the
ones that stick with us are you.
Speaker 2 (50:07):
Know, make us a fluffo.
Speaker 4 (50:09):
Not only that, you know, why not learn more about
the world around us and what we weird humans learn
to label shit and how we create shit like velcrow
and yeah, all these interesting things. And plus if you're
on a date and it gets silent or you know,
something happens.
Speaker 1 (50:24):
You can just bring one of these up. Yeah, did
you know?
Speaker 2 (50:28):
Thanks for flying with us today.
Speaker 4 (50:30):
If you have some of your own that you want
to share with us, please send them to us.
Speaker 2 (50:35):
On our socials at in our own world pod. Yes,
and you.
Speaker 4 (50:39):
Never know because I want more answers on some of
these questions, So we might have to do another episode
and then we can hear some of yours. That would
be fun, right, Maybe they can call in and tell
us some facts they know. We can verify them in
real time. We're not playing around here.
Speaker 1 (50:53):
Space news is real, Yeah, super real.
Speaker 2 (50:57):
We love your things. Thank you for flying with us.
We'll see you next week. Moon Bye bye. Launch.

Guess what a single strand of spaghetti is called.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
You know what? I just got allergic the way you
just said.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Hold on, they poop out little cubes.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Oh, I'm jealous.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Why that sounds super painful?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
We are made of stardust.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Did you know that klauds can weigh more than a
million pounds? A claus.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Launch Welcome back Earthlings to season three, episode three. See
how I got that right two times in a row.
Now that is going to be my entire goal moving forward.
I will never misgender the episodes again.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Wow, the episodes appreciate you.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Welcome back, guys.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
How are you today? In space?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Is very exciting day? Wouldn't you say?
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I'm really excited? When I was growing up?
Speaker 4 (00:54):
To preface this episode, a lot of people would call
my mom the Encyclopedia of useless in for me because
over the years, and there are many of them, even
though she ages like Benjamin Button, but she has acquired
quite the encyclopedia of useless facts. And it inspired today's
topic because who doesn't love a good random fact that
(01:16):
then you can pass along when there's an awkward silence in
an elevator.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I actually feel like the useless facts that I know,
kind of like I hooked you with them. Oh yeah,
I feel like there's some things that I was like,
did you know that? And you thought that I was interesting? Oh? Score,
I'm so glad I memorized those.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
You mean today? No, just oh of course?
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I love useless facts.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Wow, that didn't land well? Yea, clearly. So I'm obviously
excited to hear your use is facts, But truthfully, I'm
more excited to see your face when I read you mine.
What do you want to start with today?
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Why don't we start with some facts about food?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Okay? Will you do one and then I'll do one
and we'll take turns like this, Okay, I like this. Okay,
So you know Heinz, the Sauce Producers, Ketchup, Mustard, you know,
et cetera. Two things on the glass bottles of Ketchup,
which this is a fact that I learned growing up.
There's a little fifty seven etched into the bottle right
(02:17):
on the glass. Ones.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah, and if.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
You're at Johnny Rockets RP or whatever not RP, I'm
sure they're still wrong. But anyway, if you're somewhere where
they have glass Ketchup bottles, you if you hit or
tap where that fifty seven is, the sauce comes.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Out much easier.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
No way.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yeah, try it that I grew up doing because I
don't remember who it was that told me what they
told me. If you did that, and then I started doing,
I'm like, wow, that actually works. So then I found
out the actual truth of why the fifty seven is
on the bottle. And it turns out and that the
time that they started engraving it into the bottles, that
(02:55):
was the variety of pickles that they sold. They sold
fifty seven in different kinds of pickles, and they were
really proud of it.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yeah, it's not cool.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
That's super quiet idea. Are you not making that up? Okay?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
So, first of all, space news is completely true.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
No, it's not. It is.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Second of all.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Second of all, today we actually are sharing facts that
are in fact unusual but true.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
We know that mine are facts.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Mine are as well.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Please feel free to google them. I don't know fifty
seven pickles, Yeah, we'll see. Okay, I have one. Okay,
Bananas are actually botanically considered berries and strawberries are not.
Do you know why? No? Okay, because botanically a berry
is a simple fruit. That develops from the single ovary
(03:46):
of a flower, and it contains one or more seeds
that are distributed in the flesh. But the actual flesh
of the strawberry is not the fruit. The fruit of
the strawberries actually what we consider to be the seeds,
and within each one of those little fruit is actually
a seed. The flesh that we eat is actually the membrane.
It's pretty much like an extension of the flour itself.
(04:09):
It's a membrane, like a tissue that holds the fruit together.
So really, a strawberry is an aggregate fruit like a pineapple.
A pineapple isn't one fruit, It's actually a collection of fruit. Whoaw,
which makes sense if you don't know, if you've seen
those videos, yeah, where they take the little pieces off
like the pineapple hawks.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Yeah, that rona time. We learned a lot of stuff,
which we'll get to later. But anyway, all right, my
next food fact.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Are you ready? This one? I really love. Okay, if
you go back to previous.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Seasons of In Our Own World, you'll see that we
had an amazing episode about veganism, which somebody is very qualified.
Mark or Borges's amazing and this fact has to do
with something that we talked about there. Chickpeas and almonds
contain almost as much protein as steak.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
So to put it into perspective, one hundred grams of
steak can cont up to twenty five grams of protein. Okay, okay,
the same amount of chickpeas contains twenty one grams and
the same amount of almonds twenty eight grams.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Wait, so almonds can take more contain more protein than
steak does. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
This guy named Greg McFarlane, he's a director of the
Vegan Australia. He was studying this and you know, was
working with this company called Better Health to do these
kinds of studies.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Wow, I didn't know that. Look at that. I can't
wait to use that one.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's a good one.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
I love that. Okay, cool, this one? I really I
love all of them, so I probably shouldn't say that
before all of them, but anyway I do. I really
love this one though. Guess what a single strand of
spaghetti is called?
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Eh, spaghett you're close spaghetto?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
A spaghetto? Would you like a spaghetto? When you try
to see if it's thenks spaghetto?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Who in the world have one grand one strand of spaghetti.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Or ask for when you're testing to see if the
noodle is finished, don't you lift up a spaghetto.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I guess in that context it's eating one ritz cracker.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
You love it. Yeah, but it's not called a writ
It's just a ritz cracker. It's called a spuggett.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
I'm gonna call it a spuggett.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Okay, whatever you want, all right.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Okay, this is my last food fact.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Oh okay, yeah, I'm not I don't have like five more.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Sure you're the chef. No, you're the chef.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
You can say as many food as you want.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
And it's the wrong one.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Okay, this one's actually an awesome food factor. Useless information.
So you know how when you're making pasta talking about
spaghetto and spaghetti and spaghetti it sometimes it takes a
long time to boil the water.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
You know a lot of people don't.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
You don't got time for that, right, So you know
that you can actually boil a bunch of water and
then freeze it for later when you want to make spaghetti.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
What I'm sorry, hold on, roll it back. What did
you say, because I'm pretty sure you just said I
could have leftover boiled water to boil later. And are
you just are you space losing me? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I did.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I did.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Wow, but it almost.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
No, because no, it didn't work. It did not work.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
That that concerned that I just lost some brains.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I thought that you were trying to pull fast one
on me and it wasn't gonna work. Okay, So you
know what, this is actually a great segue to the
solience section of this little, fun little fact game that
we're playing. Speaking of water and no this is not fake,
just prefacing. You can actually boil and freeze water at
(08:05):
the same time. What do you mean you can freeze
and boil water at the same time. Yeah, the same water,
the same water.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
How is that?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
It's a phenomenon and it's called triple point and it's
where the temperature and pressure are just right for water
to exist in its three states.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
But how is that? How could you regulate those two?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Sure it's some funny little machine that they.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Can't just drop some ship like that and then not saying.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
What do I look like to you scientist?
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Like a hot pot situation?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Believe a space commander. No, it's not hot pot.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
You know what, I just got allergic the what you
just said. Hold on, that was a real and really reactions.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Okay, but this is real. Look up triple point, look up,
triple point.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Is that like three points in Miami. That's what it is.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
It's like people like in a cave on that are
existing in two temperatures.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Moving on, alright, my turn. Wow, I'm allergic to your bullshit.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Good thing. Everything I'm saying is fact.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
I'm gonna have to do some more research on that.
All right, sunsets on Mars are blue?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Really?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Yeah? Wow?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
I didn't know that. Isn't that cool? That's really cool? Why?
I mean, because they there must be something in the atmosphere,
like the way that the light comes in through the Okay,
I don't know why. Okay, how's this? A day on
Venus is longer than a year on Venus.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Oh, I have that one too, because guess what, Oh,
a day on Earth is twenty three point nine four
three hours, but on Venus a day last two hundred
and forty three Earth days.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah, which, which, yes, to your point, a day on
Venus is much longer than Earth. But did you know
that their days are longer than their own years? Venus
takes longer to rotate on its own axis than it
does to orbit the end Hi your sun.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
As confusing as that is, a day on penis is
way more confusing.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Okay, anyway, moving on. Wait, did that count as one
because I'm ready to give you another? No? Okay, cool,
because that was like a collapse. That's great. So did
you know that clouds can weigh more than a million
pounds a cloud the water? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Okay, that makes schunse. Okay, well I got one for
your clouds. Okay, did you know?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
I know you know this, But did you know that
in the components of what makes like our skin, our flesh,
our bones, our nipples, all that stuff, we are made
of stardust. We are made from the same things that
our stars are made of.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I did? I did know?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That?
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Is that amazing? Yeah? We are one. It's really cute. Cute, Ye,
like cute, We're made of star stuff.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Cute.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah, it's like a cute thing. That fast about it
is fascinating. But like, aren't isn't everything made up of
the same composition or like more or less the same composition? Yes,
Like look at the table of elements. It's not that many.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
I don't want to look at that anymore really anyway?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. On the human thing, a
single human cell contains approximately six feet of DNA. Ah,
oh what you knew that?
Speaker 4 (11:19):
No, I was thinking about our sorry, I was thinking
of where I thought of that measurement from. And at
first I remember that, like our intestines are like long
as hell, like that.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
There's there's a fact there about like the intestines circling
the earth a few times something like this, Oh yeah,
is that it?
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Or like our intestines can cross the United it's the
DNA definitely not the earth.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah, and you were making fun of me for the water.
She just said our intestines can go around the air.
It was okay, because you need to take a break
whatever intestinia.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Okay, this is a cool one.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
They're all cool.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Speaking about our bodies. Cotenants shift at about the same
rate as our fingernails grow.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Wow, that's a lot benji Okay, that's wild right. Also,
like this is not a fun fact. This is just
a sad fact. The majority of maps are like completely misrepresented.
Like Africa's way bigger than it is pictured in any map.
I think you can actually fit like other continents in
(12:27):
Africa count An. I don't, I don't, but they need
new ones. Oh this is you know that. Maybe this
is how I got confused. The average person. Now I
look this up right, I'm like, what do they think
the average person walks? Right? Because this is the average
person walks, And like, what do I think the average
person walks? Is seventy five hundred steps a day? You know? Right?
(12:47):
Not in this economy. Nobody's walking seventy five hundred steps
a day on average. But okay, let's think. Let's think
that the average person walks the equivalent of five times
around the Earth in their lifetime. Wow, yeah, pretty cool.
You know.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
I always had this thought when I was growing up
about if you would watch us from above, like where
we walked to And I thought about how the majority
of the time that human beings walk, we're going like
from the same place to the same place, in the
same place.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
And I always had a thought that was, like, what
if we.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Use that time in which we commuted back and forth
in the same place to keep going other places.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
There's something really deep in there. I don't quite know
what it is, but I know it's there. I can
feel it. Yeah, Okay, my turn.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
In ten minutes, a hurricane releases more energy than all
of the world's nuclear weapons combined.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
That's so crazy. Why don't we harness that energy? That's
like when you think about dryers, the common modern dryer
is a massive waste of energy because you're using all
of this energy to create heat hot air that then
you just expel back into whatever the environment, which is
why they don't have like heatless dryers, right, Like, is
it Switzerland one of the S countries? Forgive my ignorance,
(14:04):
one of the S countries, it's like illegal to have
a vented dryer.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Oh yeah, because.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Ventless dryers use a different form of heating that's like
just more cost effective. And if people, if you didn't
know this, I guess this isn't an unusual fact, but
it is a fact. The average dryer, the average modern
vented dryer, takes up more energy, consumes more energy than
like I think all of your other appliances combined. Something
crazy like this. Yeah, if that's the case, why don't
(14:29):
we find a way to harness the energy of hurricanes
Because that's.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Insane because there are probably people who would want to
harness the energy of hurricanes for really bad for.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Nuclear I mean, like the comparison is bad enough. No,
but I'm just saying in general, that's really cool. You're welcome,
thank you. Okay, cool. A cubic inch of human bone. Now,
now this is a little wild, right.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
I love that band.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
A cubic inch of human bone, of human bone, that's
a good I think a cubic inch is a good
band name.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
But yeah, they open for the nine snails.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Uh huh. But a cuban inch of human bone can
bear the cuban No way, I can't help it.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Okay, bone, A cubic inch have human bone can bear
the weight of five big up trucks.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Did you know that? So why doesn't your break so easy?
That's what I thought that. I was like, Oh, it
must be a force from impact, right, Like that's but
I'm assuming if you just gently place the five pickup
trucks over the cubic inch of bones, it says a
human being is capable of withithstanding compression forces up to
eighteen thousand pounds per square inch. Wild, we're strong like bull.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Yeah, we're strong. Leg bone. Then I get my door
caught in the shower and.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
It explodes, So explain that that's such an unbelievable I said,
my door cut in the shower, my.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Finger, yo, Gemini have rough.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
That story is so unbelievable that there are people still
in our lives that we.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Talked about it.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
It's not on our injury, but it's so real, so real, it's.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
So meshed up.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Can't feel it and it hurts at the same time,
like the water that can boil and frozen at the
same time. Anyway, let's move on to some animal fox
and get out of this freaking bone gore Hole okay, whatever, Okay,
I'm starting this.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
One another band name. Oh yeah, gore Hole. That's good.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
There at the after party for the nine inch nails
of the Cuban. In the Cuban is the Cubic Okay
(16:52):
are you ready for this?
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
A snail can sleep for up to three years ones, yeah, consecutively.
And in other news, in my next life, I would
love to be a snare.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
That's wild. Isn't that cool? That makes me sad a
little bit?
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Why because we step on them and it's like, damn.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It could have been and we think they're in the way,
and they're just like trying to catch some z's and
here we are crushing their life.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's what do I say?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
We're in the yard and you too watch off it
and then when it happens, I literally dropped to my knees,
like if I just lost my firstborn son. It's sad.
And also you feel the crunch and you hear the crunch.
Something about that experience is not not good. Okay, cool
wombat poop, not a wombat poop. Wombat poop Back to
the Cuban inch is cube shaped. They poop out little cubes.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Oh, I'm jealous.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Why that sounds super painful? Well?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
What shape for their their buttholes?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Is it like a plate o mold?
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Like?
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Maybe their buttholes are square?
Speaker 1 (17:57):
I don't know. I didn't really, it didn't occur.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Do they look up and then they shape it into
a square because they like are trying to fly.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
No, they don't know, Emily, they don't shape it.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
They're just going to play mind cubes.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Okay, it sounds very it sounds painful.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Explain to me how cube sized poop could come out
of a round sized booty.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I don't know. That's a good one.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I think we need to have a full up episode.
On this to like get some more details.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
The next episode. We will let you know updates. But yeah,
I didn't. I didn't, you know, I wasn't inspired to
check out the rectime of water.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
I have a question for you. If you put a
square sized mold in your boom boom and then you poop,
is it gonna come out square?
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I'm sure the edges would come out flats.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Where too comfortable?
Speaker 6 (18:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
We really sure.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Okay, it's your turn. I think you should go for every.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
I'm gonna dream about this, this booty whole question. For
every one human, there are two hundred million insects.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
Believable. Yeah, that was just a warm up one the
next No, I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I thought that was pretty incredible because genuinely, like, you know,
we tend to be people who are like insects, you know, yeah,
I mean there's like so many, but it's like micro
macro like they imagine that we're like trying to look
for like bigger and better universes.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
When it's like, imagine, how crazy. What's the number if
you were the sizer and two hundred million insects for
every one human? Also, like I'm looking for the wrong
people to join my cult. All I need to do
is can carry like thirty times or way, something crazy
like that.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
I could be making that up, you see.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Don't give the fact the.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Facts, all right, something crazy like that. Next. Okay, all right,
sorry about that. Hippo sweat is pink and it contains
natural sunscreen and antibiotics.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
That's sweet. Those are all things that are great for us.
But you know, it's not trying to go absorb some
hippo sweat. They're very violent. Oh really, yeah, they killed.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
They're so cute.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I know they're so cute, but they're like us.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Hm hmm with their square teeth. Why are their teeth square? Well,
they don't. They definitely don't boop square anyway. Okay, you
want to go or should I go?
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah, I'll go again. Okay Ooh this one I thought
was really.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Interesting because you know how much I love like Egyptian
culture and things like that, and this lord me as
a counterpart to this fact. The only domestic animal not
mentioned in the Bible is a cat.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
Wow, it's not weird. Why because they're from the double
love you, Leona, my little baby. I love cats.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
But let's be real, No, but I guess I figured, which, again,
like the follow up, I would need to do some
research on, But I guess I figured that cats are
like have kind of like been around. If they're mentioning
like dogs and other animals, how could they not mention?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
So did they not say they were cats? On Noah's
Ark or something?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
The question is, do you think I've read the whole Bible?
Speaker 6 (20:58):
No?
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Yes, actually didn't? Yes, you have?
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Yeah, I probably have.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Oh I have?
Speaker 2 (21:04):
I blocked it out. Oh no, it's okay, I've lost
another you and thens today she practiced.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Then before we start fun, there's a species of jellyfish.
Another thing that maybe we shouldn't harness based off of
your train of thought, but another thing that we probably should.
A species of jellyfish that is technically immortal can revert
to its juvenile form. Don't ask me why I said
it like that. It just seemed appropriate. But isn't that
so cool? They could be like, nah, I'm done adulting,
(21:34):
goes back to infant stage.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Say what we're time?
Speaker 4 (21:44):
So that's a that's an immortal name. That's like if
you're name that immortal?
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Crazy though, that's amazing.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
Constantly, I'm sad we can't do that though, because that's
place a. Speaking of cats, this was another cat related fact.
So a cat's kidneys are so efficient under the correct conditions,
they can actually filter salt water.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
They can drink salt water and filter nice. In the
Bible though, Okay, sharks are older than trees. The pause
tells me you are so thrall. I'm thinking because I
(22:27):
don't like what do you mean? Like?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Is this like from Charles Darwin's MySpace?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
No? No, Like they're older than trees. They've been around
on Earth longer than trees have, which makes sense. Good.
What do you The same people who told you about
everything you read the internet? They know, they know everything,
including the sharks are older than trees. Cool, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
I have a lot of respect for sharks.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I know you have a lot of respect for oceans
in general, the ocean in general. Is it considered oceans
or is it at once? Yeah? Right, they're multiples, I
mean all it all. It doesn't all touch Yeah, okay
whatever ocean apostrophe as closed apostrophe, no parentheses. Uh, you've
taught me a lot about respecting the ocean, and I
really appreciate that. Yeah, because I fear it a little bit.
(23:13):
But now I feel like I have a better understanding.
As a results of everything you've passed on, I have
another sea animal one. Okay, go ahead. C Cucumbers can
eject their internal organs. Is a defense mechanism?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Do they survive? They die?
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I assume that if it's a defense mechanism, they survive.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
If I could shoot you with my if my small
intestine and just whip it wrapped back in me, that's lit,
jump rope with it.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Don't got to take sure to the gym. That sounds good,
sounds disgusting and smelly. Dolphins have names for each other exactly.
And cows can move in regional accents.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
That's like the Highland.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
They're like, ooh, and what do the British cows sound like?
I are my? But how cute is that the Cuban
cow suit?
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Well that was good?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Okay, last one, I promise, I just I really get
to your polar bear skin is actually black and.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Their furs at.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Oh wow, yeah, that's so cool. They're not you white,
they're technically black with clear fur.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
You know what they are cold?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
That's what they are.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
No, they're not.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
They're warm because they're polar bears anyway. Okay, well that
was fine, I think so now onto the So sorry,
I almost let you go. How could I do that?
I have a game for and there are right and
wrong answers. Actually there's only one right answer for each
of these. But that's okay, okay. So this is actually
something that I love and you and I always talk
(25:08):
about it. I think you love it too. But how
the plural forms of specific? I'm okay. What is a
flock of crows called a murder? Yes? Okay, this is
specific to Canada. What is a group of bunnies called.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Specific to Canada?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah? Yeah, it's a regional, regional name.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Oh, fluffers, It's called a fluffyl It's called a flufful
of bunny. I really didn't know that, no, I said,
I said, I said fluffers.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
But that's crazy. You're really close. What is a group
of porcupines called? Oh? This one is also maybe when
you could guess, yeah, porcupines, a prickle, a frickle. Okay,
this I love. This is probably one of my favorite ones.
(26:07):
A group of ferrets. You're not gonna get it.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Let me just oh wait, let me guess. So baddies
a business starts with a being a business. Yeah, you
know why because they're in the business of stealing your
ship and doing weird ship since when ferrets literally notoriously
go through your stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
And steal it? Really? Yeah, another fact if you didn't know,
look at that. Okay, what is a group of owls called?
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Oh, that's called the It's called a hoot nanny. It's
called a hoot a parliament. No way, that makes so
much parliament. And when they're all together they wear powdered wigs.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
They should they should? Okay. A group of jellyfish, oh,
a bikini bottom A smack a smack of jellyfish, that's
what it's called.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
The thing is like, that's the last like on a
amount of that you wouldn't imagine associated with.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Jelly fishing of jellyfish or something. Nope, okay. A group
of flamingos.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Oh I knew this one at one point I forgot
because it's like pretty or something.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Right, what a group of flamingos is.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Called the party?
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Flamboyant?
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Oh yeah, they're so gay A flamboyant.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Isn't that so good? So cute? Speaking of fun fact
about flamingos, do you know that there are more fake
flamingos in the world than real ones because of laon
the core.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:35):
I think my uncle is responsible for like twenty percent
of that because for a period of time growing up,
he did something called flamingoing, or he would put a
bunch of plastic flamingos in the trunk of his car,
drive to our houses, steak the yard with.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Them, and then drive away. Wait, that's amazing, Lorenzo.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Shut up. Wow, we should definitely break that back. They're
probably souse somewhere. Okay, there anifacts.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Yay, that was fun.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I know who do you know what?
Speaker 4 (28:01):
Well, obviously everybody knows what a group of geese is called.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
A gaggle of geese. Yeah, I love that one.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Okay, that's a fave.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
We've done quite a bunch. I think this is our
last mini segment of the facts.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Oh yeah, which is what human beings?
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Human being?
Speaker 6 (28:31):
Human beings relating of the dgor and the most invasive Yeah, totally,
and the most smelly on the inside, according to.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I'll start with something light. The cigarette lighter was actually
invented before the match.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Wow are you sure? Yes?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
I was there what it was?
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Yeah, that makes no sense, I know or how like
we've been using flint rocks long before we had fuel.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Yes, but like matches as they come from friction.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Right, But yes, but matches are matches, so technically like
the concept of a match and the box and striking
it on the box? Was that concept of utility that
you know? That that that's you know.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Silly little humans. Ooh, that's cool. I didn't know that
the inventor of the frisbee, whose name is Fred Morrison,
which I thought you'd get a kick out, was turned
into a frisbee after he died. He literally requested to
be turned into a frisbee.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I'm so sad I did not meet this man. I
am so grateful to this man. I will be turned
into a drum set and my skin will be pulled
into most amazing toms and my bone that can apparently
withstand this weight that Jem says will be the best
(29:59):
rim for my snack.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
I never think you'll be able to play me as a.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Drum set, and I will going. You're sick. You know
that you are sick. You started it.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
You're praising for becoming a frisbee and I can't become
a drums. Funny dude, drums were literally made from skin
skin on wood.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I understand, I really understand, trust me, but ill I
know that there are drums that are human skin. I know,
but that's disgusting. All right, I will not honor that.
Wish you better hope I die first.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Moving on, that's really cool.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
Congratulations to that guy. I fred that he's being thrown
around the world. This one actually was one of the
ones that based on when we started the episode that
I always knew growing up because my mom shared it
with me. It's about the inventor of velcro. His name
was George Demstra. Anyway, this just kind.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Of inspired this whole episode actually that specific fact.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Yeah, also just like the feeling of that ooh when
you learn a little fuck like this. But anyway, so
he had a poodle, and you know they have like
really short curly hair, and he would walk the poodle
off and love the poodle. And those little things what
are they called, like ge sasas. I don't know what
they're called. I folded on that. But there are those
little balls that when you walk through certain grassy areas
(31:20):
that get stuck.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
To like pay your clothes.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
It's like a little ball with like lusty seeds, spiny
things on it, and but it.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Called like Spanish something or I literally.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Had it on in my pants yesterday. Sometimes on the
beach too, it happens. But anyway, so when he would
walk his poodle where he lived, he realized that the
poodle was consistently covered in these little balls when he
got back home, but it was really hard to remove them.
It was really hard to remove them. So he cut
a piece of the hair that was connected to the
(31:50):
ball and looked under a microscope and saw that the
hair was so short and curly, and the ball at
the end of it it was spiny, but it had
a tiny little hook at the end, so it would
hook around the curl, you know, so well that when
you tried to pull it apart it was really really
difficult to do. So, so then when he saw that,
he said, oh man, what a great alternative to like
(32:12):
an adhesive that you can still pull apart and not.
That's why velcrow has one fuzzy kind of side like
the poodle and one spiky kind of side like the
weird thing from.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
So basically we should be looking at stuff under microscopes
more because we might be multimillionaires. Yeah, super cool. I
love that.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Or we should get a poodle and walk it.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Yeah, well, table that one, okay, all right. The word
of nerd was actually coined by doctor Seuss in nineteen
fifty in the book If I Ran the Zoo, and
it was used to describe an imaginary creature. It had
no negative connotation. It was just a nerd was like
a trefilo tree.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Interesting, Yeah, I wonder when that changed.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
We'll tell you. We're gonna have to follow this up
because I have a question.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
The bad F word to describe homosexuals.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, that was like a cigarette, right, Uh.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
It's the short form form is still called a cigarette
in some place parts of the UK. But no, actually
that was a it's really dark. Actually the what F
A G G O T. I'm not gonna say it
actually is is a collection of sticks of wood. Oh yeah,
and I think it had something to do with like
burning yea, oh god, yeah, really bad. But but yeah
(33:25):
that's actually not that's where the world to come from.
But no, this is this is cooler, This is better.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Clearly inching towards October over.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
Oh yeah, that's true. Eyeballs and swagger. They were both
coined by Shakespeare.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Oh, I knew that, amongst others, I knew that Shakespeare
invented the word eyeball.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
M swagger and swagger had like more of a negative connotation,
but it really was still the same thing. It was
like about the walk.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I heard that Shakespeare was actually a woman, and I've
heard I've heard a.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Lot of theories about Shakespeare.
Speaker 4 (33:53):
Yeah, yeah, anyway, Okay, this is a cool one. So
the invention of the post it note, oh it was
a failed adhesive experiment and also a church choir singer's frustration.
So what happened is in nineteen sixty eight, this scientist,
his name was Spencer Silver. He was researching glues and
(34:16):
adhesives for the aerospace industry because they have to do
like different kind of testing on that. And he accidentally
discovered like microspheres that stuck lightly to surfaces of things,
but they were easily removed and like paste it back
for like a certain amount of times, because you know,
a post a note has like a shelf, like you
can only take it on it off so many times
because of dust and stuff like that. But anyway, so
(34:40):
in that search he started to use this like a
little piece of paper with that adhesive on it as
a bookmark in his church choir book, you know.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
And like I said, he noticed it.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
After a while it would fall out, but if he
didn't remove it, it would have ruined.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
The pages of the book.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
And then he started to write notes on it and
like give notes to his friends and stuff, and realized,
and this is his quote, it's not just a bookmark.
It's a whole new way to communicate. Wow, that's the
post it note. Wasn't invent the nation of space, religion
and gossips?
Speaker 1 (35:17):
I really like that. Yeah, the post it note. It's
such a good invention. Did you know that Cleopatra lived
closer in time to the moon landing than she did
to the building of the Great Pyramid. It's a short distance,
but yeah, whoaah. So she lived around two thousand years ago,
while the Pyramid of Giza was built about four thousand,
(35:38):
five hundred years ago, and the moon landing accorded to
nineteen sixty nine, which was about two thousand years after
her death. So there's like a five hundred.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Year that's really amazing.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
Yeah, puts things into perspective. She I mean two thousand
years wasn't long was a long time ago.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
But also, wow, that's that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
Also when I think back about the when I think
back about what we understand about like Egypt and Cleopatra
and her era and how advanced tumans wereds like what
happened that we went through the Middle Ages and the
Renaissance period and like people peeing and oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
like how did we degrade and tell it well like that,
you know, I mean like we were preserving aliens body, Yeah, honestly,
(36:16):
I think so Aliens.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
They were like, you know what, we tried this earth,
let's get back to let's put get back to Blargan.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
We gave you the Pyramids.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Okay, they actually have examples of like really elaborate and
amazing surgeries on.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Walls and yeah, pretty amazing. Okay, so this like that
would be fun.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Growing up again, I was able to travel a lot
and like you pick up some fun facts, like remember
when we all went on the families Yeah, on the
family trip, and like you know, some tour guides have
like interesting facts and stuff like that, and these are
some of the other ones that I knew from growing up.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
I thought that were cool, all right, so the saying
sleep tight, I was there for this actually yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
And speaking of the like you said, like those times
when it's like wow, like we feel like we were
so ahead, but we really weren't. So they used to
sleep on ropes and there was like woven ropes and
before you go to bed every night you would have
to go and pull the ropes and tighten them, you know,
so that your your mattress wouldn't like slink down or
(37:16):
you would be uncomfortable. So the saying like sleep tight
and like, oh, you know, pull your ropes and I
hope we have a good night's sleep and your bed
is like pulled tight.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
What about the bed bugs, Oh, don't let the bed
bugs bite. Well that's that's because.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
They had they had bed bugs awful, you know what,
knock on one. I've never had a bed bug incident
to this day, and I've and I've slept in quite
a few hotels and really not one because I don't
want to. But weird, how that's a thing, right, I.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
Mean, I guess I didn't realize like we could still
be faced with that issue.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Oh, absolutely unlocked a.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Hole in me. There was like there was an article
recently about places having infestations that we're not going certain
places this year. Go ahead, Okay, did you know what
I thought? I thought of you, especially for this one.
Did you know that there's a basketball court in the
US Supreme Court building and they make jokes about how
it's the highest court of the lamp.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
That's really funny but also very cool.
Speaker 1 (38:13):
It's on the top four.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
So what a random thing?
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Yeah, random thing? Yeah, why a basketball court? But cool? Yeah,
they truld to like an in house therapist or something.
Ye who knows, they probably do.
Speaker 4 (38:24):
Okay, I have another cool saying one. Okay, this one
I really love, so the saying the cold shoulder, right, so,
oh yeah, I can love back in olden time because
a lot of people say like, ohways, give me the
cold shoulder, and like, you don't really know the origin
of this stuff, and not everything has an origin. But
at the same time, it's it's cool to think about
(38:45):
giving somebody the cold shoulder was a real thing because
you when somebody would come visit you in your home,
you know, you had a guest if they overstayed their welcome,
and you want it to be super passive aggressive and
not have to confront them. You would take a cold shoulder,
like a cut of mutton of mutton, right of meat
(39:05):
and put it on the mantle on the fireplace, and
if the guests saw.
Speaker 2 (39:09):
It, they be like, I gotta go, gotta.
Speaker 4 (39:12):
Jet, because then they that was their indication that it's like,
oh girl, it's time to go. And obviously the longer
it was there, like it would smell and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
But ill, but I wish they were like better.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
Even pumpkin, Yeah, that's actually cute. That should be like
the Latin one. If you see pumpkin in our house
and it's not November.
Speaker 1 (39:34):
Get out, get out? Yeah right, you and I don't
kick anybody out. People will be there way beyond our
level of exhaustion, will be like it's okay, We're okay,
stay on the couch if you want.
Speaker 4 (39:46):
Usually people were like comfortable falling asleep around or whatever.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
You especially what mine. Yes, miss Sleeponia. You guys are
out there that have been to our house. You know
who's Miss Sleeponia? Yeah it's em Okay, this one follows
the last one. I also thought of you, okay, and
that's why I put it here. Did you know that
the twitter bird from the icon or I guess it's
no X whatever. I still call it Twitter. The Twitter
(40:11):
bird has a name. What is it? His name is
Larry after Larry Bird from the Celtics.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
Oh wow, Larry Bird.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
Twitter co founder is from Boston.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Larry Bird is an icon iconic.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Well that's the Twitter bird name is Larry old school player.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
All right, do you know what karaoke means sing? I'll
give you a clue.
Speaker 4 (40:32):
In Japanese singing for people who aren't singers, it means
empty orchestra.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Wow, makes no sense, but interesting because if anything, you're
playing to an instrumental track, so like it really would
be a filled orchestra.
Speaker 4 (40:50):
I think it's a kind of like playing on the
fact of like you're playing to a track, so it's
not a real orchestra.
Speaker 2 (40:57):
It's like an empty orchestra, like you're just singing.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
That's really cool. I know that. I like that one.
I like that one. The average person spends a collection
of six months of their life waiting for red lights
to turn green and twenty four years to sleep.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
And if you're in Miami, it's an extra tag on
an extra year.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
For real or la imagine la, Oh, that's not they're
the ones that bring the spike all the way up.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
That's crazy. That's a long time.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
That's a long time.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
That's a long time. That's a whole last baby.
Speaker 1 (41:29):
That Okay, yeah, I do not think of it like that.
Speaker 2 (41:31):
Like that's like imagine it's.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
A formed human. It's crazy. Okay.
Speaker 2 (41:36):
This one is a fact, and it's also a challenge
for you.
Speaker 1 (41:39):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (41:40):
There's not a word in the dictionary that rhymes with months.
Speaker 1 (41:45):
I think that's false.
Speaker 4 (41:46):
Actually, okay, well maybe it is false if she doesn't
think of one.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Well, the fact that I can't think of one month,
because I'm pretty sure the only two words that you
can't rhyme with her silver and orange door hinge. No,
that's not a word. That's two pilver nilver no silver.
You're making up wards.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
All right, let's move on, But everybody think about that. Yeah,
we'll get back on that. Okay.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
I feel like it's a verb. I'll remember. I'll get
back to you. Okay, this is my last one.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 1 (42:20):
The shortest war in history lasted thirty eight minutes, which
it's that seems kind of long. That seems kind of long, right.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
I thought you're gonna be like lasted three seconds.
Speaker 1 (42:29):
Maybe the way that they're qualifying is like you're actually
you actually have to get to like where they're having
the war. You know, it can't be like the war
they I don't know what war was it. It was
the Anglo Zanzibar War of eighteen ninety six. I know
nothing about it either.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
Don't worry Zanzibar.
Speaker 1 (42:47):
Oh I lied. I do have one more also, I
thought of you. See how much I think about you.
The world's largest grand piano was built by a fifteen
year old whoa Adrian man of New Zealand. It is
over eighteen feet long and weighs one point two tons,
which is great.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
That's amazing.
Speaker 4 (43:02):
Yeah, and people are amazing, and they're getting scary and
scary and cool. All right, So I have a couple
of things to share with you with me, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
Okay, because I'm done sharing. That's good, all right, it's
my turn now. And you know how much I love
the dark and mysterious. Shout out mister Ballin. You know,
we live and we die. So I wanted to share
some death ah. Of course, of course, Encyclopedia of useless
death facts that are gonna blow your mind? How do
you feel about it, all right, I'm here for it.
(43:30):
I'm gonna get quick. Don't worry because you're painless. Yeah,
well no, I don't know about painless all right.
Speaker 4 (43:35):
On average, one hundred people choke to death on ballpoint
pens every.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Year, So please the world, yeah or the.
Speaker 4 (43:44):
US, no, around the world, take out better take ballpoint
pens out of your mouths.
Speaker 2 (43:49):
I'm I'm also guilty of this. But you know we
now within three days of death, the enzymes that once
digested your food then start to eat you.
Speaker 1 (43:58):
I'm not surprised by that, I figure.
Speaker 4 (44:00):
So it's like pretty interesting though, right, No, okay, okay,
this one I thought was really interesting and kind of grim.
The last sense you lose when you die is you're hearing.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
That's fucking awful.
Speaker 2 (44:14):
That's awful, right, that is awful. You're like, they're like,
but you're hearing dead and then you go okay. Two
more so, Victorian dresses, like in olden times you have
to wear the corset and the liner and the thing
and then that all that stuff. They were actually death traps.
Speaker 4 (44:30):
This is for real, yeah, because what happened is that
not only did they have like all these weird different
things on them that made them extra flammable. But when
the dresses caught fire, it was almost impossible to get
them out. So like that was actually really high cause
of death in.
Speaker 2 (44:46):
That era for women.
Speaker 1 (44:48):
I think I knew that one. Yeah, it's screwed up.
Speaker 4 (44:51):
And at parties, girl spanks who we learned this too
when we were on that trip, that they would go
to the corner of the ball, Bougie my a. They
would go to the corner of the ball and pee,
go dress hunt and everything and just pee in the corner.
And they'd just be like, piss in the corner. Well
they like in a Yeah, they'd.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
Try, but under all that drama, how you're gonna make
it in the basket?
Speaker 1 (45:13):
You know, there was drizzle, throw it out, like they
would just throw out the straight pee into the streets
and stuff.
Speaker 4 (45:19):
Yeah, no, no, okay, last one. This is what I'm saying,
last one for death.
Speaker 1 (45:25):
She wanted to.
Speaker 4 (45:26):
On average, one American per year dies from being hit
by frozen poop from airplanes. So when you go poop
poo on the airplane, that blue liquid, you know, eventually
it goes down into a place, but then it freezes
with the temperature and the liquid that it uses. And
then depending on the flight and where you're flying, there
are certain zones where you can open and you have
(45:50):
to release, you know, not only for weight, for other reasons,
your waste. So sometimes obviously humans water and if you're
you know, a place that they don't anticipate you to be,
you get hit by that. But it's so hard and
from so high that the poop will kill you.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
You realize that that's that's the worst way we can
bring a basically flying pile of metal into into the sky.
But we don't know what to do with our poop.
The best we could do is just kill it. Kill
one American, kill one American with it. That's wild.
Speaker 4 (46:24):
I mean that's a low number, but it's just such
a terrible way to go. Much like, oh my god,
you know, I'm so sorry about you know, uncle whatever.
It's like, what happened to him? It's like, what are
you going to say? I'm so sorry? He's like, you know, oh,
I got smacked with a turd.
Speaker 1 (46:39):
That's like that show that that used to be popular
back in the day, that like A Thousand Ways to Die.
I loved that show. Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (46:46):
All right, moving on from death. Now yeah, the high note. Well,
I'm not going to say one more fact.
Speaker 1 (46:52):
What I am going to say is everybody's as what
I'm saying when they were saying, I'm seeing all out
of space network, all right, are you ready to find
out what's going on out of space?
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (47:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (47:06):
Are you okay?
Speaker 4 (47:08):
You're not gonna scold me for it because these are
one hundred percent true?
Speaker 2 (47:11):
Just kidding, they are about ten percent.
Speaker 4 (47:16):
But honestly, please feel free after watching Space News to
google this and you'll see the actual headline. It's there,
I promise, yeah there, all right, Blue Origin drone ship
arrives in Florida. I have the first glen launch. Nine
out of ten people report, really Florida. People are still
trying to do shit in Florida.
Speaker 1 (47:37):
That one has to be drin. Yeah, am I doing?
I lie? Did I lie?
Speaker 2 (47:44):
The Hubble telescope spotted a sparkling cosmic fossil three million
light years away, and it was able to capture an image.
It somewhat resembles beautiful glitter like what we have here
on Earth, but in space, and it has officially been
named the first gay fi.
Speaker 4 (48:01):
Just don't put it in your purse. You know, glitter
gets everywhere space news.
Speaker 2 (48:05):
Yeah, what do they call glitter? The herpes of arts
and crafts? Oh my gosh, all right, artemist.
Speaker 1 (48:13):

Speaker 2 (48:27):
Guys in space or on Earth, Artemis three astronauts will
walk on the Moon with a four G equipped space suit.

Speaker 4 (48:36):
They made sure to also install high quality speakers near
the ears inside their helmets and a.
Speaker 1 (48:41):
Ring light on the Moon to.
Speaker 4 (48:43):
Make sure they get a cute TikTok dance video before
having to return.
Speaker 1 (48:49):
Is the speakers real? No? Okay, sorry, just checking because
that would be very cool.
Speaker 4 (48:53):
All right, Well, they have to have those in there
to communicate, but TikTok or not, which I wouldn't be
surprised to be honest.
Speaker 1 (49:00):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (49:01):
A new super Earth or twin Earth.
Speaker 4 (49:03):
Has been discovered in a nearby Solar system's habitable zone.
According to NASA, the planet designated as TI seven fifteen. Oh,
this is where Elon Musk is getting his ideas for
his kid's names.
Speaker 2 (49:16):
Is about one and a half times as wide as Earth.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
The overwhelming question from researchers has been how much does
Netflix cost monthly?
Speaker 2 (49:25):
On TI seven fifteen? More information to come cheaper hopefully,
And this has been spaceless.
Speaker 1 (49:33):
Wow, let me just tell you you're very good at space news.
Speaker 4 (49:37):
I don't do anything. I just read the news in space.
