I tend to read the thing that's trendy and then
I realize that I hate it. So yeah, but I
could get you a Harry Potter lego. Okay, but I
think those are really big. We're going to start out
a little something, a little less uh, a little less overwhelming.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
We're going to get you to the legos like man.

Speaker 3 (00:59):
I only play with like the big ones from the nineties,
the real big ones.

year old ones that I got for Pollie. Yeah, I
get this f I can't choke on. I was not
supposed to eat.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
No, you're not. I have to learn it the hard way.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
I was so excited because they have a Friends that like,
I guess it's a coffee shop or the house, I
can't remember what it is. They have a scene from
Friends made out of legos. I'm like, I'm going to
introduce to Kalin the Lego world that I am fascinated with.
Hours of my life that just disappear. I can't think
about anything else because I'm thinking about Legos. It's a

(01:33):
grown ass man and I and I was going to
get that one for you. It's one hundred and fifty bucks,
and I was like, you know, please don't. I'm going
to start you out with something less less and if
you tell me you love it, I'll go get you
that one.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
You do not need to spend one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Yeah, that would be a very cool one though.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
If you put it, e get like display in your
house because you love that show so much, that'd be
a very cool one.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
I mean, I love Friends.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Anything'd be a cool one to have.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
I think we're to start botanical with you, though, I
think I'm getting both you and Jason.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
But it looks like flowers. Oh yeah, they're very cool looking.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
I think you're gonna find the same thing I've found,
which is you take a little gummy hypothetically. Oh, mine,
of course are harrow bo I would never otherwise. But
you know, I know you're assert not but and then
and then you before long, it's like ten hours of gunball.
You built a flower thing and you're just so satisfied
with it, and you didn't think about anything else. Your
phone's stinging over here, but you're focused on the task.

(02:27):
Everybody needs something like that.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
I do need to not think about it anything else.
So beautiful, I'll try anything.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
I think I'm going today to the actual store. There's
a store, Yeah, in the water Tower in Chicago.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Oh yeah, I don't know. One of the burbs. I
didn't know.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
I think that one's still there. It says it is, Yeah,
it said it was. I was gonna be don't make
me go there and cry. He said, oh my god,
it would be terrible. Would be still there. Okay, good,
it's all that's there. But yeah, but here it is.
Harry Potter was the point Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,
you might recognize that book. Of course, the British story
was originally titled Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, and

(03:05):
when a few of the first editions were printed, there were.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Some mistakes inside.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
On top of the word philosopher being misspelled on the
back cover, one wand was listed twice when it came
to supplies Harry was meant to take to school.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
When one of these books was.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Up for auction in March of twenty nineteen, it sold
for ninety thousand dollars. So if you have one of
the original original original Harry Potter and I guess it's
the Philosopher's Stone, and you have these typos, you got
a lot of money on your hands. But don't get
too excited, like make sure you got the one. Not
like what happened to Kaylon's house with the Princess Diana.

(03:41):
Well you did have the one, she just ripped the tag.
My sister thought she had the one, but she didn't.
She had like the second generation. So it's like for
a fifteen minutes she was like, oh, I'm a millionaire.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
I'm so rich because I have that one.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Oh no, you had like the second version, that's the
first version with the specific tag. If you have that one,
you're worth like fifty million dollars.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yeah, protect the tag. That is the key.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
So don't yeah, don't get too don't get too excited
about it. Go home and look though. And if you do,
remember a little commission for me, because I told

Speaker 1 (04:10):
You more Fred show next right here.
