Monday, Umber five.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Did you know hurricanes actually produce a lot of energy?
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Here we go, I was just talking about hurricanes supply.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yeah, we're actually in that tax free hurricane preparedness holiday
season as well. But they can pack some one point
five trillion watts of power, which is equivalent to about
half the world's entire electrical generating capacity in a year.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
That's wild nuts. That's wild.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Number four.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
If you love cheese, but a trend up your protein.
Low sodium parmesan cheese has the most protein out of
all the cheeses. It's forty one point six grams of
protein per one hundred gram serving.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
I'm aparm man, It's not bad. I like it.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
On top of my spaghetti. Yes, are you salting today?
Birth three?
Speaker 3 (01:14):
The average human body temperature is dropping point zero five
degrees every decade decades. Uh huh, queen zero five. They
say it might be a result of modern medicine getting better,
which reduces the average levels of inflammation, so your body temperatures.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
That makes sense.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Disney World here in Florida, you know, they are legally
authorized to build and operate their own nuclear power plant
if they wanted to.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
I guess. You know, they're like their own country, right,
so I guess they could do a lot of things
if they wanted, I mean, just wanted to.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
They say the odds of them actually doing it are
very low, though, but I think they may have already
done it. We just don't know about it.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Pointing toward North Korea, right, The.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
Largest living thing in the world is a mushroom in Oregon.
It's two point four miles long.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Well, when are you and Brett gonna climb that? I mean,
that's huge, That's a big musha.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I wonder how it would tastes, you know, stroganof or
something right.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
On top up spaghetti.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Tuesday five.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
There is only one town in the whole world that
has two exclamation points in its name. Pardon my French,
but it's it's called San Luis do haja. It's in Quebec, Canada.
And yeah, it has the haha at the end, which
is I guess French for an obstacle. And then yeah,
but there's only one other town that has an exclamation point,
and it's in England. But this one has two exclamation
(02:38):
points in its name. Moving on to four, the town
of Spearfish, South Dakota, holds the world record for the
fastest temperature change. On January twenty second back in nineteen
forty three, the temperature at seven thirty am was minus
four degrees. Yikes, that's cold. And then the winds picked
up and two minutes later, just two minutes later, it
(03:00):
was forty five degrees. I guess that's an improvement. N Three,
after George Washington's presidency was over, he opened up a
whiskey distillery in Virginia. You know, that's what I'm gonna
do after I was president. You know, started a whole
new country. But it quickly became the biggest one in
the country. After he died, he left it to his nephew.
But his nephew just wound up burning it down. A
(03:21):
good job, dude. There aren't very many English words that
have six vowels that are all in order, but there
are a few. But the most common one you'll know
is facetiously. Yep, all six vowels in order, facetiously all
the way down to.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Five.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Number one, golf balls have an average of three hundred
and thirty six dimples, but they can't have anywhere between
three hundred and five hundred. But the average is three
hundred and thirty six. But you'll just have to take
my word for it because I'm not going to be
over there counting them anytime soon Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Number five.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Denver might be the mile high city, but there is
a three mile highest city. Really yeah, it's the World's
highest permanent settlement is La Ricanata in Peru, and it's
more than sixteen thousand feet in elevation, and according to Harvard,
as many as one in four residents who live there
may have hypoxia, which is low levels of oxygen in
your body tissue, So it's not good.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Number four.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
The famous fire scene in Gone with the Wind was
filmed with seven Technicolor cameras, and they were the only
seven of those cameras in the world at that time.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
The crazy scene too Clark Gable and they're making it
out of Atlanta and the Tara burns down. I mean
it was a.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Crazy It's iconic and legendary for a reason.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Number three, there are twenty nine states that have an
official dance. You like, you have state bird, you can
have a state flower. Twenty nine states have an official dance,
and square dancing is the official state dance for twenty
four out of those twenty nine.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Square dance Yep, now I can do some virgenda real,
I can't do it. He's greater.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Number two.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
A million seconds is twelve days, but a billion seconds
is thirty one years. If you think about that, that's
the difference between a millionaire and a billionaire. Oh that's
how much more money that is.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
That's crazy, that's crazy.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Number one.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
And finally, if you earned five thousand dollars an hour,
twenty four hours a day from when the pyramids in
Egypt were constructed until today, the world's richest person would
still have more money than you.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
And that would be not bezos, that would.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Be not Bill Gates. No, who's above him? Rocket man
oh Elon Musk.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Yes, I called him rocket Man, Come on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Number five.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Jupiter is the largest planet by mass, volume and surface
area in our system. And by the way, you probably
don't want to spend a day there because it's made
up mostly of gases and it has a very violent atmosphere.
Winds in the clouds can reach as high as three
hundred and eighty five miles per hour. And I don't
(06:14):
know how they know this, but there's one storm called
the Great Red Spot on Jupiter that's been raging since
at least the sixteen hundreds.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Sounds like the iheard conference room to make interesting.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Number four, it's been nearly twenty eight years since Bill
Clinton ran for president a second time, which means that
no one younger than forty six has ever voted for him. Wow,
is that crazy?
Speaker 4 (06:36):
That's that's mind blowing.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I didn't realize that. Number three.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Wow, the vegetables that toddlers are most likely to eat
are it's got to be carrots, potatoes. Even I don't
think potatoes counts as a vegetable, but according to this
I guess statistic or survey.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
What would they have to be a vegetable? Right?
Speaker 3 (06:54):
It's a bullet you call it a root vegetable. Yeah,
but it's mostly a starch.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
There's lots more hell fear ones that you could eat. Sure,
I don't think you can count French fries as a
eating vegetables.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
You can't.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Number two.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Do you know why Wendy's burgers are square and not
circle like most other burgers? And see No, they say
that the square patties are as symbol that the company
doesn't cut corners.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Oh cool, So that's why we don't cut corners. I'm
telling you, I really do learn something every day.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Number one and the candy bit of honey? You ever
had one bit of Honey'd you say, biddle honey? Oh?
Speaker 4 (07:30):

other things that are turning one hundred years old this
year dumb Dum's lollipops, Kleenex, are you sery Wheties? We've
had wheedies for one hundred years, hundred years. Marboro cigarettes
and the locking plyers like your vice crip, those were
invented one hundred years ago.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
No kidding, no cod And this show has almost been
around that long.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
It feels like it some day.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I know, you'd say that Friday.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Thirty years ago there were just around twoy five hundred
kmart stores. Guess how many there are now?
Speaker 4 (08:12):

You got that tractor would smoke.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
You start somewhere.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Number three.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
You know, sardines themselves aren't actually a species of fish.
There are a lot of different types of sardines which
are small fish in the herring family. So technically any
of these kind of in the sardine herring family could
make up a sardine that you eat, like the rainbow sardine,
the slender white sardine, the European pilcher, the gold stripe sardanella,
(09:10):
the Indian oil sardine. So there's a whole bunch of
them that kind of make up.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Are you a fan? No?
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I love them.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I'm good, thank you. There is one person, and only
one person, who has both played in a World Series
and the Masters Tournament and golf. I'm trying to think
it was a long time ago. Sammy Byrd played with
the New York Yankees when they won the World Series
in nineteen thirty two. Oh wow, Many Quentin said, I'll
(09:37):
just pick up golf.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
He won eleven tournaments and finished third at the Masters
in nineteen forty one, just nine years later.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
That's aweso one.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
And the first time we ever heard of kryptonite. You
know what kryptonite is? You know, the only thing they
can bring Superman down. It was admitted by the people
who were behind the Superman radio show.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
Really radio show.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
They had a Superman radio show in nineteen forty three,
so Superman, and they did it so that he could
just grow in pain for a few episodes because the
voice actor who played them he wanted to finally take
a vacation he would to go because you know it
was all live back then. They couldn't pre record then,
those live dramatic radio shows that everybody would tune around
the radio to listen to. That was entertainment and so
(10:19):
if you needed to take a break, just invent kryptonite.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
