Toads cannot give you warts.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
You know, I've always heard that picking up a frog,
holding a frog that t on you that you'll get
a war.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
No. Worts are caused by the human popolov paplomva virus HPV.
That keyword being human. You see, the warts lumpy appearance
is due to epidermal cells multiplying.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Due to the virus.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
So warts can spread based on skin to skin contact,
but just not.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Toadskin, not toad skin to human skin. Yeah, or we
always what do we? Is? My grandmother? Mayn't that up?
You play with frogs, you get wards. I don't know

city in Florida, is.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Good, gracious Tampa.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Jacksonville, Oh, jackson Yeah, their population is actually more than
twice as big as Miami's.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Wow, I don't know why we're not going to be
here Jacksonville. I don't get it. Number three, I don't
get it.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
The sixth biggest export by the United States is blood.
Oh yeah, human and animal plus vaccines and cultures. It's
bigger than swebeans, corn, or gold.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
That's insane. Number two.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Brett and I've been rewatching the Lord of the Rings movies. Yeah,
and I always thought in the first movie, in that
big scene at the end where Gandalf the Wizard is
fighting the beast and he says, you shall not pass, right,
that's not what he says. He actually says, you cannot pass.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Not shall not pass. Uh huh, you cannot pass yep.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
I always in my head I had it the other way.
Everybody else does. They say it all the time.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I do it with song lyrics, get it backwards all
the Number one.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
And with sabi.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
You know, we get a lot of it when we
eat sushi. They are a favorite restaurants, but almost all
of the wassabi we eat here in the US is
actually a mixture of horse, radish mustard, starch and food coloring.
You see, real with Sabbi is usually too expensive to
import and using the quantities that we use it here.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
I like it. I like it hot hot, I make.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
It nosemre to clear your signus? Is that real? Quick?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
I like it? I like it?
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Tuesday Number five, Speaking of the Olympics.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Even if you don't win a medal at the Olympics,
there is a consolation prize for athletes who finish fourth
through eighth. Okay, they all get a certificate called an
Olympic Diploma.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Oh that's nice. Yeah, make it all the way to
the Olympics. No metal, but here's a piece of paper. Well,
but or nothing, I guess. Number four.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Yeah, the first tailgate on record happened in eighteen sixty one.
What was going on then? That was so important to watch?
People traveled to watch the Battle of bull Run. This
was in the Civil War. There you go, and they
had picnics off to the sides while they cheered on
their side of the battle. You know, just people brutally
(03:09):
losing their lives, I.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Know, and we're just gonna eat about it. We just eat.
At some point, I guess you're right here in the
middle of the fight. That's good. Number three.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Ethiopia has a different calendar than most of the rest
of the world. It has thirteen months, but for some reason,
it's currently twenty sixteen there. So anyone want to tell
them what a ride they're in for when your number two,
Their thirteen month is only five days long or six
days during a leap year, so it's kind of focus.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Ok I think she Jerry's rightly, I think number two okay.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Number three, are you a fan of pistachios? Jerry?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
The world's largest pistachio producers are a the state of California.
They produce forty percent of the world's pistachios, and then
Iran and Turkey both at twenty four percent, So that
is eighty eight percent of all the world's pistachios in
those three places.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
I love them. I love them. Not the colored ones,
just the nuts, you know, just the regular plane not
the colored pistachios.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Oh they make them different colors.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yeah, you don't know that.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
No, just the green ones.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Here is here we go to the top of the list.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Number one, Hawaii is made up of one hundred and
thirty seven islands.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Did you know there were that many.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Oh, there was that many.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
There's the eight big ones, yeah, and then there's one
hundred and twenty nine other small ones.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Really smalls down in Hawaii, you know, Wednesday number five. Well,
do you have.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
The symbolism of the Olympic Rings is pretty less sophisticated
than you might assume.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yes, it is.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
It is much The five rings actually represent the five
inhabited continents of the world.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Oh so can you commune?
Speaker 3 (04:46):
The America's, by the way, are considered as one continent.
But the rings were created in nineteen thirteen to contain
the colors blue, yellow, black, green, and red because they
were the common colors of the flags of all the
nations at that time. So they kind of just put
it all together.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Makes sense.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
The Nazi salute as we know it, you know, the
palm out salute, It was actually created by James be
Up him as a gesture that was to accompany the
Pledge of Allegiance, really, and it was named after the
guy whose text had been written by Francis Bellamy. That's
the guy who wrote the Pledge of Allegiance, right, So
they named this salute after him, and the kids would
do it while they would say the Pledge of allegiance
(05:21):
at school, but then the Nazis took it over. So yeah,
in nineteen forty two, Congress decided that we should put
our hand over our heart during the pledge instead, because
the Nazis took it over and ruined every ruined everything
for everybody.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I hear it, so that that came in nineteen forty two.
I didn't realize.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Well, it was around a long time before that, but
that's when the Nazis kind of took it over and
we changed it and put our hand over our heart
for the pledge. In stacking, when alama spits.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
It's not spit, that's vomit, vomit.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
What of a llama? The lama alamaa when it spits.
I was trying to figure out what alama was? Alama alama,
no alama. It's sure will number.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Prince Edward Island is ten times smaller than any other
Canadian province, but it's its own province. It's only two
and eighty five square miles, or basically a little smaller
than Delaware.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Well we'll pray for it.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Nova Scotia is the second smallest, and that one is
a lot bigger.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Twenty one three and forty five square miles.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Eight e'ts more pop tarts than.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
We got to talk about pop tarts later, Why I
know we do.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Speaking of sweets, the Mars Candy Company, you know, if
you go to a lot of state fairs, they'll have,
you know, a deep fried twinkie or a deep fried
candy bar.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Tell me about a girl.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
But the Mars Candy Company says that they don't approve
of it. Really, they do not approve of people deep
frying their candy bars because it doesn't fit with their
promotion of healthy living.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Because we didn't think of it, because we can't make off.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
With our promotion of healthy living. You're a candy company.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
It wasn't our idea Thursday number five.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Now that the Olympics have wrapped up, let's do one
more Olympic facts. There are seven people that have a
medal in both the Summer and Winter Olympics, including Alexandra
Berghardt from Germany, who just joined the group this year.
In Paris, she got a bronze medal in the four
by one meter relay, and at the twenty twenty two
Winter Olympics in Beijing she got a silver medal in
the two women bob sled and the most decorated is
(07:18):
Clara Hughes from Canada, who won two Olympic medals in
cycling in the nineties and four in speed skating in
the early two thousands.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
That's wow wow.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Now, a lot of people when you write the word
Xmus as an abbreviation for Christmas, can't you don't like it?
Speaker 4 (07:33):
People do think and this is a myth.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
It's a way to de emphasize religious tradition, as in
like taking the Christ out of Christmas.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
But that's not it.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
The term actually dates back to Christian churches in the
sixteenth century. You see the ex and Mary Xmas is
their Greek letter kai chi, which is an abbreviation for
Christ in Greek. So the suffix m as is from
the Latin derived Old English word for mass, so kai
mass Chris mess, so that the ex is actually the
(08:02):
word Christ if you're thinking of an abbreviation for the
Greek word Lumber three. The first ever cell phone call
was placed on April third in nineteen seventy three.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
My goodness, yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
One of the engineers at Motorola who built the phone
walked out onto the street and called a competitor at
a at and t into brag.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Look what I got, Look what we got.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Look at this the guy who invented Pokemon.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Man, My kids loved Pokemon, but he got the idea
for a game where you collected rare monsters because he
collected bugs.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
As a kid.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
There you go. It always leads to bigger and better things.
Always number one.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
And speaking of ancient Greek, the language, you know, there
is no word for blue in ancient Greek.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Blue the color blue yees.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
So if you were, you know, trying to speak it
and want to describe the sky, you'd have to come
up with some other way to do it.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
That's crangy. Didn't know that Friday?
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Did you know that if you went potty every time
you showered, you could save one thousand and one hundred
and fifty seven gallons of water.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
A year if I went potty when I shot.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
If you pee in the.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Shower, you can save about eleven hundred gallons of water year.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Really, because you don't flush to flush.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Yeah, all right, it makes you Grover Cleveland went from
being the mayor of Buffalo, New York, to Governor of
New York to the President of the United States in
a span of only three years.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That's impressive. Now, that's impressive. That's impressive. Wow, I didn't
know that three You know.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
We used to have purple Eminem's.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
I've never seen a purple Yeah, well, this.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Was back in nineteen forty one. Violet was one of
the original Eminem's colors when they were introduced. They lasted
less than ten years before they were replaced by the
tan color, who was eventually replaced by blue. And remember,
Eminem's were made for the US military service members serving
overseas because they wanted chocolate that melt, so they'd put
the hard candy coating on it.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
And that's how he got Eminem's.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
We all know Eminem's melt in your mouth, got it too.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Western movies were once so are TV shows. They were
so popular that in nineteen fifty nine there were thirty
primetime westerns on TV.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Are You Kissing?
Speaker 4 (10:08):
There were only three channels back in nineteen.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Fifty nine, Oh wow, thirty prime time westerns.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Me girling off. That's all we had was NBC, ABC
and CBS. That was well, I'm sorry, PBS. We had
public broadcasts.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
They go and are you familiar with the term spaghetti Western.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yes, I love them.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Do you know why?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Right? I guess because they string you along.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
No, they're actually Western films that were made in Europe.
The genre got the name because most of those movies
were directed by Italians.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
So they called them spaghetti Westerns because of the Italian directors.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I never knew that. But if you'll look up like
Clin Eastwood and hang them high fist full of dollars,
those are all spaghetti westerns. I had know. All the
Clin Eastwood move is amazing. I didn't know that Italian.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
