(00:43):
so much. And Kiki was very upset try to use
chet GPT last week for the Fun Faction like any
of them, I don't know. If maybe I hadn't told
you that I used chat GPT that you might have
been fine with him. Well we'll never know, will we.
I guess however, this week I came over to myself.
I didn't come up with it myself. They're facts, so yeah,

(01:04):
I'm not you know what, I'm gonna start just making
them up. That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna start
just saying things and let's I mean, they'll just see
if people believe me. No, this is apparently a real
one though. Did you know, And this is the part
of the fact that's the most impressive for me, is
I didn't know you could say octopuses octopuses. Yeah, multiple
octopuses are octopuses, and that just doesn't sound right to say,

(01:27):
but it is. But they have blue blood did you
know that? No? And they have three hearts. Did you
know that? Oh? Yeah, I knew that part. But they're
so sweet. They have blue blood. There are two pump blood.
Two of the hearts pump blood into the gills and
once for the rest of the body. When they swim,
the main heart stops beating, which is why they prefer

(01:49):
to crawl. Did you ever see the thing on I
think it was Netflix. It was I think it was documented.
I considered a documentary about a dude who became friends
with an octopus. You told us about it. I didn't
watch because I used to enjoy eating them, and now
I've completely stopped because I'm told they're so kind and sweet.
It is so hard to watch, and not because ninety

(02:10):
eight percent of it is the sweetest thing that you'll
ever see. Like this guy literally became friends with an
octopus that knew who he was for years. He'd go
swimming in the same spot and this octopus would come
out and like grab onto him in a kind way,
and they like they knew each other. And then I'm
not going to ruin the end for you, but like,
let's just say that, you know, nature does what nature does,

(02:34):
and he was witnessed to something that he didn't stop
because it's sort of how it goes. He didn't want to, Like,
I guess part of it for him was he never
wanted to impede on the natural process, you know, the
way that people, the wild animals can become reliant on humans,
you know, yeah, in a bad way. So I guess

(02:54):
his thing was, I never wanted to sort of impede
on the natural progression of this thing's life, and so
sad he didn't. But anyway, it's it's incredible because you
realize that these animals are like actually very sensitive and
uh and and to Calin's point, they're also they forsome,
they're delicious as well, but we need to not think
about that more Press show next
