That's what I's trying to say.We're almost up to twenty editions of the
Happy Ending podcast I'll have you know. Hmmm, that's quite a run when

(00:48):
it was supposed to be once aweek, apparently taking off in Singapore according
to the Worldwide Global Podcast Charts.The show's taking off in Singapore for some
reason. Well, it's just nicethat podcasts and radio can can live hand
in hand, isn't it. Yeah, I mean, how many podcasts do
you hear us promote on this radiostation? Everyone but this one? Right,

(01:12):
It's weird, but I know,I know it's the way it goes.
Let me ask you about something youguys, your families, your significant
others. Are you familiar with theterm fart walking? No, fart walking?
Yeah, I'd like to tell youabout it. I know people that
have done it, and I youknow, it's usually elderly people. I'm

(01:34):
not talking about crop dusting. I'mnot talking about like you know, you've
been sitting for a while and youget up and you too it as you
walk. I'm not talking about that. Okay, I'm gonna tell you about
a woman named Marilyn Smith. She'sa cookbook author and the self proclaimed queen
of fiber So's. She's an olderlady, older gal, and she has

(01:55):
a popular TikTok page where she's beentrying to explain and popularize the term fart
walking and it's benefits. So,after she and her husband have dinner,
their nightly ritual is to go fora walk around the neighborhood. And they
do this so that they can expelvarious types of yes huh, she says,

(02:15):
you fart when you walk. It'snatural for your body to, you
know, produce the gas. Thingsare going around there, right, she
says, I named it fartwalking.It's at least ten minutes after you eat,
sorry, ten minute fartwalk an hourafter you eat, according to Smith,
will help reduce the risk of diabetesand helps expel all that gas out

(02:38):
of your system. So apparently it'sreally helpful. I mean, I'll walk
after dinner is always good anyway,wife and I like to do it in
the warm, in the warm months. Yeah, it is. It is
a good I'm not saying I'm againstit or anything. I just we just
don't do it. Maybe we willagain, someday. We used to do

(02:59):
it. We used to do itafter breakfast on the weekends, go for
walks. Yeah, we we havenot been doing that for years now,
and maybe we'll get back to it. I don't know. Yeah, so
yeah, she's trying to popularize theterm but also tell you about all the
benefits of fart walking. So didyou see the other girl on TikTok that
did a study on why why Greekart penises were so small on the statues.

(03:30):
So, like she dug into youknow, every time you see the
Greek art, they're like men likeDavid's dingle. Yeah, they're huge,
you know, muscle bound, youknow, perfect physiques, but their little
package is like she dug into thatand researched it, and back in the

(03:52):
day, she says that it wasviewed as if you had a big dong,
it was almost comic, like youwere a clown, like you were
a jester. And it was alsoviewed as being barbaric and gluttonous if you
had a big dick. Very northernEuropean. Huh, very northern European.
I don't know what does that mean. Well, you said these were Greek

(04:13):
statues, that they're Yeah, somaybe the north the barbarians were north of
there. Okay, they considered theGermans barbarians. Okay, I'm just wondering
if you had a big dick,if you were like a German, maybe,
right, which would make sense,Yeah, which makes sense. And
then she went on to say,unlike today, you know, you're a
porn star, right if you gotand you know, well a giant,
bigger ones than those guys. Myfavorite thing that I learned about those statues,

(04:38):
I don't know in the last coupleof years, was that they weren't
just left white. They were allpainted bright colors. So like the outfits
they're wearing were painted. The skintone was painted. Everything so when you
walked through there back when they wereout, they all were colors very ornately.
Yeah. Ah wow, everything waspainted, even the columns and things

(04:59):
like nothing was just white and gray. Oh shit, Yeah, that I
found fascinating. So, like wewe love these like white marble, beautiful
sculpture costs and sculptures, but theywere painted. That's funny when they're not
kept up, you know. Yeah. That makes me think of my brother's
house, which he's still into thisday. He's like you, Kenny's been
in the same house for years andyears and years. You know, he

(05:20):
paid his off, You're close topaying yours off. But he lives in
a like a duplex section of Lakewood, Ohio, so all the houses are
right next to each other. Thesehomes literally have no yards. The driveways
separate the homes. My sister livesin an area like that. So in
order because we had always had familyover during the holidays, we'd all gather

(05:41):
at his house, he decided onesummer, I'm gonna paint my house multiple
colors like these Greek statues. Sohe used like fifteen colors on his house.
Wow, it was ridiculous. Itlooked horribly right, It looked like
Joseph and the Amazing Technic color dreamCoat, but everybody could find his hose.
Yeah, but these statues were likebeautifully painted, not like you know,

(06:03):
fifteen colors on a house painted right. The paint did look realistic right
when people were right at the time. Yeah, you don't look at the
statues like that, they have tobe a white marble. Do you think
by that logic back to the statuesthat people that posed for them, in
their likeness or whatnot, were like, you know what, smaller dong.
I don't want to be confused withone of these barbaria. Do you think

(06:25):
there was actually guys that said thatthat actually had to make it smaller than
small? Yeah? Maybe maybe whoknows right, And maybe there was like
an anti fluffing device, like maybethey had him squat in a barrel of
cold water before they posed. Youknow what, everyone knows, shrinkage makes
maality in any That was Boston's onlyclassic rock morning shows. Happy Ending listen
