It's not fun that to the day. We make you
look smart in front of your bodies. It's the fun
fat to the day.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
All right, here's some fun facts for you today. Hey,
how did you have a good time at the golf tournament?
What a beautiful day though it was hot out there,
but it was really really fun. Thank you for coming out. Uh.
Here's uh, here's a fun fact that might be a
little morbid. Make you think a little bit. You know
why planes dim the lights for takeoff and landing. Hell,

(00:33):
you fly probably more than all of us. Most people
think it's to kind of make you comfortable, but that
is not the reasons they hate lights. The real reason
that they dim the lights for takeoff and h and
landing is so that you'll be able to see better
if there's a crash. Emergencies on planes are rare, but

(00:55):
takeoff and landing are the most likely times for something
to go wrong, So if anything does happen, there's a
chance that the plane's gonna lose power mode. Dimming the
lights ahead of time lets your eyes adjust so you'll
be able to see better if everything suddenly goes dark.
Makes the exit signs in the emergency lighting more visible.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Morbid.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
That's every time you fly. Now, you're gonna think about
that when they dim the lights. Sorry, I'm sorry, sorry,
not sorry, sorry, not sorry. This segment's awesome. The most
money someone can make on an episode of Jeopardy is
five hundred and sixty six thousand, four hundred dollars. I

(01:40):
never really, it's not in the background here once in
a while, Ken Jennings.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
And yeah, Alex is really good at it.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yeah, you would require getting the daily doubles as the
last questions in both rounds, doubling up with them every time.
So five hundred and sixty six thousand is the most
you could make. The most anyone has ever one on
a single episode is one hundred and thirty one thousand,
one hundred and twenty seven dollars. Low money by today's
game show, but it's still been around forever. Finally. The

(02:12):
average weight for dudes in the US ages twenty years
of age and older. Some people are gonna feel good
about this, some people not so good. One hundred and
ninety nine point eight pounds, liars, you lie. The average
weight for chicks twenty years of age or older one
one hundred and seventy point eight pounds.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
It's the fuck that's of the day. Liars, we make
you look smart, your buddies, it's the fuck that's to
the day.
