Listen back to Afternoons with Reed and Eddie from August 1st. With Eddie off at a stamp convention (allegedly), Reed brings in Dan Brown from the night show. The two dive into the petty art of revenge, including a woman who bought the naming rights to a dealership that repossessed her car. Reed puts Dan to the test with a Top 5 list of America’s favorite pies, and Karli joins for a round of Cap or No Cap where, unsurprisingly, she dominates. They also unpack the August blues and rage against buzzwords like “calibrate,” “on God,” and “synergy.” Plus we all learn a little something with Fun Fact Friday.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Not if I'm nine kids at them read and Eddie
in the afternoon. Not with Eddie today. With Dan Brown,
I heard something about him going to Springfield. That's what
I was just talking to Jill about. He's going to
a a stamp collection convention. Yeah, yeah, Well Jill seems
to think that maybe he's going to visit our other
offices in Springfield. Uh, you know, you know what when

(00:22):
he said Springfield, that was my first thought was like,
maybe it's like a work thing, but maybe he's trying
to get the heck out of here and go work
in Springfield for some reason. So if you don't know,
we own radio stations in Springfield, and maybe Eddie's gonna
jump ship, I might you know, whatever, what do you?
How's your Friday read? So far? So good? It's really nice.
Sure you're wearing, by the way, Taylor Swift shirty a

(00:45):
long sleeve Taylor Swift shirt. Does she have clothes on?
I hope not. That's great. You kind of can't tell,
so I like, you can't tell? Yeah, Dan Brown filling
him for Eddie today because Eddie conveniently told me yesterday
that he was not going to be here today, which
makes me have to scramble. I think I texted you
at like five o'clock and I think it was like
late last night. If you want to come in and

(01:07):
fill in for Eddie, So thanks, Eddie. Have fun at
your stamp collection convention. Okay, Eddie, you're just you know,
interrupting me from doing my old change on my car today.
It's no big deal. Yeah, I got to talk to
you about that too, because you do it yourself. I do.
I do it myself. Why wouldn't you, I've never Yeah,
well we'll talk. We'll talk about it next. We're also
gonna play a little caper no cap with Carle Love
the Cappernokay, and then we're gonna do Top five. Normally

(01:29):
Eddie does it to me, but since you're filling in,
I'll do it for you. Well, I'm gonna give you
a tome Okay, hell yeah, let's do it. All right,
all that, what's coming up? We're gonna have fun today.
Dude's twenty five nine Kiss FM reading Eddie in the afternoon.
So Eddie's out, Dan Brown's in. We're screwing up his
whole day, his whole weekend. Yeah, you were gonna do
an oil change today. Or you did, or I'm gonna
have to do it after now, yeah, because we won,

(01:50):
you know, and I got my show after this, So
it's gonna be like eleven thirty by the time I
do my otal change today. You do it yourself, I
do yeah, man, I have never done an oil change myself.
Don't know how if.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
You were to compare the price of going to say,
a dealership, or even to like a quick change.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
I go to like one of the quick ones. It's
it's it's definitely probably the same amount of money, but
it's it's for me. It's more prideful to do it
myself on my own car. Wait a second, you know,
and then I know it's done right and everything's put
back the way it's supposed to be. I did it myself,
I I would know it would not be done right.
There are a lot of places. I'll probably get a
lot of hate mail for saying this, but there are

(02:27):
a lot of places that will screw you over on
oil changes.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Okay, they'll put the wrong oil in because they don't
have what's recommended for your car.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Blah blah blah blah blah. I would just rather do
it myself, and then I know it's done right. Yeah,
but for the same price. Time is money, probably like
maybe ten to fifteen dollars cheaper, depending on where you go.
Willing to pay that surge? Arte, I know, I just
sit in my car or sit in the lobby and
twiddle my thumbs because you're lazy. I get it. I
it's just fiscally responsible. I'm more of a man than

(02:57):
you are, apparently, I mean in this sense. Yes, yeah,
my car knowledge is huge. I've got limited car knowledge.

we're playing caper no caps Yankee, meister? Do you do

(07:41):
this to me? I feel like we just did this
two days ago, like this week for some reason went
by fast.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
For me, lovely, for you, Thank you.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Capro no cap. I don't know if we've had this
pairing before.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
I don't think not not for caepro no cap. Do
you know what is? Yes? What's cap? Cap is true?
Or no cap is is a lie?

Speaker 3 (08:03):
And I feel.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
Cap is not a lie. No cap is a lie?
What wrong? Yes? All right? Well, okay, Carly's got this
capper no cap uh? Do you even know what's going on?
I never know what's going on? So basically true or false?
And why can't you just call it that? We like
to complicate things. So here we go, caper no cap Carly,

(08:28):
you'll go first. Kansas is the flattest state in the
United States. Capro no cap uh no cap Dan Brown.
So I think it's true? So cap right? Is that
how that works?

Speaker 3 (08:41):
I'm not telling you. You gotta figure it out.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Okay, So no cap is true? I'm so confused. Yeah, so,
Carl you said no cap, no cap, so which means true, Dan,
what do you say cap for no cap? I'm gonna
call it cap Dan Brown with the point it is
cap Florida is actually the flatting Yeah. Yeah, So this
is interesting because Dan Illinois, he does wacky Wednesdays in

(09:07):
fun fact Friday, so he knows a little bit more
of the out of the box stuff. And Carly is
well rounded. So I don't know. I just took me
a minute to figure the whole Caper no cap Yeah, sure, okay,
so here we go question two. Real quick, Dan Asia
has a larger surface area than the entire moon. Caper
no cap. I'm gonna say cap.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
I'm gonna say no cap. He's just pretty big, no cap.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
On. It is one to one. We're gonna take a break,
play a couple songs, and we'll be back with Caper
no cap. It is Carly one, Dan Brown one more.
Next it is cap or no cap on ninety five
nine Kiss FM reading Ddie in the Afternoon with no Eddie.
But we have a Dan Brown and we have a
Carle and they are going head to head. One to
one is a tie right now, and the question goes

(10:00):
to Carly First, it is capper, no cap. The most
common language for websites is English.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
Mmmmm, caeper no cap, that's cap.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
I'm gonna say, no cap, no cap. It's true. Don't
give me that.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
Look the majority of the world does not speak English.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
But the majority of websites are English. At the person
who I got this from, caeper no caps, Dan Brown.
We had a whole, big hit, a whole big off
air argument about what content Russia was in.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
It's mostly in Asia, so I win.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
It's Europe and it's Eurasia. Eurasia, all right, I read Asia,
Dan Brown. Caper no cap. The color red does not
make bulls mad. Caper no cap, cap does not.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
That's no cap.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
That is no cap. We're tied. Still, Yeah, bulls are
color blind. They are capri no cap. Carly, the inventor
of the microwave, was actually trying to create a time machine.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
Well he failed. Uh that sounds so ridiculous that it's
gotta be cap.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
I'm gonna say, no cap, that's cap. Is not true. Well,
I mean, you know the weird stuff back then. I
just don't know.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
I mean, if it's a time machine, why they make
them so small?

Speaker 1 (11:32):
The guy who invented the X ray machine. Wasn't inventing
an X ray machine at the time.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Okay, but I'm just saying a microwave humans can't fit inside.
So if you're trying to make a time machine, should
probably make it bigger.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
Maybe you know what I don't know.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
They make industrial at the point, the industrial microwaves that
would fit a human body, you would know, prematoriums, prematorius.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
All right, we gotta take a couple song breaks. Here
it is Dan Brown two, Carly three more cap or
no cap? Next, Europe is Eurasia, Russia is both your
Dan Asia Asia and I win? Yeah, we win. Dan
Brown is really trying to get his cap and no

(12:15):
cap understood, Yeah, because he didn't confused. He's like to
confuse the hell out of me. Really, like, yeah, all
the time. It's not that hard to do, it's but
it's fun to do. It's ninety five nine Kiss FM
reading Eddie in the Afternoon with Dan Brown and Carly today.
We don't know where Eddie's at, but basically it's a
game of true or false. And right now Carly has
three and Dan Brown has two, So whose question is it?

(12:38):
Who's Dan first? Okay? Here we go. It's cap or
no cap. Abraham Lincoln once wrestled a bear in a
political debate. Mmm, I'm gonna say, no cap. This sounds
like something that crazy guy would do.

Speaker 3 (12:55):
I know that's not how he died, So I'm gonna
say that's cape probably what it died.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
I don't know. I don't think he would. It's Abe Lincoln. Man,
he was like seven feet tall.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
What's the answer, cap?

Speaker 1 (13:06):
He did not bear. I like to think that maybe
our our presidents were a little stronger than the way.
I would like to think that. But also anything was
also called a sissy once too, Like, yeah, no that
that that's a fact. Okay, I'll take your word for it.
It's cap or no cap. Carle. You can fart out
of your mouth.

Speaker 3 (13:26):
God, I mean, what's the definition of a fart?

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Flatulence?

Speaker 3 (13:33):
I just farted out of my mouth.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
That's no cap.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
And if you say anything, but I'm gonna I'd be
really upset.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
I'm gonna say cap, no cap Ah, you can, if
you like, hold in a fart for too long.

Speaker 3 (13:45):
A cad virtual gaps.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, that's what I said, would be like a burp.
Then at that point smell it would be the fart
gas ew, God, have you ever had a burp taste
so bad?

Speaker 3 (13:56):
Maybe that's fart.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
I don't think I've ever farted out of my mouth? Yes, yes,
all right, one more would take a quick break. Capper
no cap getting Giraffes have four times as many neck
bones than humans. I want to say, no cap, Carlee.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
I've seen them whip those things, so I'm gonna say
a cap whip their.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Hair back and forth? Yes, that head you said cap, Carly,
and it is cap. They have the same.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah, you know that they're dominating?

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Yeah, Carly?

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Do you know that they're like ten times more likely
to get struck by lightning though than any other animals?

Speaker 1 (14:35):
And no cap question once? It is a fun fact
Friday too. Yeah, because there's we've got one more round,
Dan Brown. You can only tie, but you gotta get
them all right. Yeah, and Carly's got to get them
all wrong. I'm letting the lady winter, of course, one
more round of capper no cap next nex Hip. It

(14:58):
is the final round of Capper no cap on ninety
five to nine, kiss FM. I think I finally got
the hang of this. I don't think you do, because
Carly's up six and you got two. I started strong,
all right, four questions. Laugh. That means Dan Brown you
have to get them all right and Carly has to
get them all wrong. Well, eur Asia, let's go. You're Asia,

(15:21):
You're Asia. Capper, no cap, Dan, you're taller in the morning. Uh,
that is actually no cap. I had to think about
what yea not a lie, no cap.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
I'm just gonna play strategy and say no cap.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
No, it's true. It's not a fun fact Friday. Yeah,
but she just handicapped your there. Yeah, because she took
away that one point that you needed all of them. Yeah,
you were taller in the morning because your your spine
isn't compressed. Capper, no cap. Car I thought you listen
to fun fact Fridays.

Speaker 3 (15:54):
I said, no cap. I said the same answer as you.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
Yeah, but you only said it out of spie. You
did say that.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
I probably said that if I answer first.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Anyway, So, Carly, slots can hold their breath longer than dolphins,
no cap. That is also no cap. That is cap. No,
they can not longer than dolphins.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Loss can hold their breath longer than something that goes
in the water. Then, because I had that on a
fun fact Friday.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
I know that he cap or no cap? Dan Brown,
Your fingernails grow faster if you listen to classical music.
Cap that's cap. That's cap.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
Yeah, they grow longer or faster on your dominant hand.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
I mean, but it has nothing to do with music.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
No, I don't know one more cap or no cap. Carly.
You can make a diamond out of peanut butter.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
What that's cap?

Speaker 1 (16:48):
No cap, no cap? I need to know, fun fat Friday.
You should probably listen to my show.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
I would I if I could.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Hey, I gave you the wind. Yeah, already weird, Dan Brown,
you let me down. Carly is getting a big head
when it comes she wins a game. She's so damn
competitive this week, right, it's so yeah. But and you
were mad at that. You get so aggressive when you're
in this studio doing this. She told me the other day.

(17:18):
I was the reason she drinks. Well, you're also the
reason I drink. Oh okay, we have that in common. Yeah,
look at me bringing people together. Nine Kiss FM. It's
reading Eddie in the afternoon with Dan Brown, who just
famously lost at Kaeperno captain it man. Well, here's what
I get. So competitive and angry and people say I

(17:41):
get competitive. Yeah, no, she gets she really does. Like
if she's loose, like she ended up losing to Eddie
at something earlier this week or maybe it was last week.
She went nuts. Yeah yeah, like literally like have to
walk out of the studio during breaks because she gets
so aggressive. It was the question it was a game

(18:03):
where you shout out the answer to whoever gets it
first wins, and they said it very very close. I
heard Eddie first, and she went and made me replay
it to everyone in the office. I just want to
let you know that you and I were right about
eur Asia though it is okay, Russia is Europe and Asia,

(18:23):
so car Her argument was that the yeah, the majority
of Russia is in Asia. No, it borders Asia, and
there's a little bit of Russia in Asia. Eurasia eur Asia. Yeah,
you're Asia, You're Asia, Natty five nine, kiss at them.
It's reading Eddie in the Afternoon with Dan Brown today,
and I think you're gonna love this story because you

(18:44):
don't take this the wrong way. I sincerely mean it
with like with a good intention. Here, Okay, everything you
are about to say just got contradiction. You see it
seemed like you could be a petty I could be
in certain situations. See, I meant it in a good way.
So do you like a good revenge? Oh? Yeah, do

(19:09):
you have a story about Yeah? What's that old saying?
Revenge is best served? Revenge is a dish best served cold?
Edgar Ale and Poe? Yeah? Yeah. So do you like
to wait for the dust to settle down before you
strike your revenge? It depends on the situation. Okay, so
we're gonna hear your story in a minute, but I
want you to hear this story here. Okay. There was
a woman who may have etched herself into the petty

(19:33):
revenge history books. After she got her car repode, she
did something so badass and brilliant, like I see you
like looking at this and then looking at that woman
in awe because the pettiness is next to level. What
she did was she bought a car, financed it through
a lending company, through the dealership. Normal thing right, And

(19:55):
apparently one month later that company, that lending company, decided
they didn't want to finalize the loan, so the dealership
repoted her car. That lady was mad, I bet so
what did she do? She looked at the legal options
like any normal person would do, and that's why she
realized something. She realized that the dealership hadn't renewed the

(20:17):
registration of their business name, the car dealership, so she
bought the registration rights to the car dealership put it
in her name. She files a cease and desist and
tells the car dealership they can no longer use the
name Taylor Kia. That is genius. That puts a thorn

(20:39):
in their side. All of their business dealings, all of
their commercials, all of their advertising, marketing, everything is cease
and desist because she owns the rights to it. And
she says, I don't I'm not gonna allow you to
use this. This is my name. Now, that is genius.
I mean, I'm kind of in awe. I love that. Yeah,
So okay, that's the story of this lady. Dan Brown's

(21:01):
got a petty story of his own. Which did you
say off the air that you almost went to jail
for it? I may or may not have almost. Yeah,
went to jail for a night. Are we allowed to
talk about this? Yeah? Wol was at a old job,
so oh, keeping better. Okay, we'll find out how petty
Dan Brown is with his petty story next. I can't wait,
but I'm also nervous, and don't be nervous, He'll leugh. Okay,

(21:25):
this is like a flex to keep I gotta keep
on your good side. Oh yeah, okay, I gotta want
to do you wrongs coming for you. So all right,
Dan Brown's petty story next, beck, I love a good
petty story, if someone getting revenge and being petty in
the craziest way, like the woman who got her car
repode by no fault of hers. So she bought the

(21:46):
naming rights to the car dealership because they left it
unregistered and then sent a cease and desist and now
they can't dealership can't use the name. I love it.
It's ninety five nine Kiss FM reading Eddie in the
Afternoon with Dan Brown and Dan Brown as a revenge
petty story of his own, and we're about to hear it,
and I'm excited and a little nervousness, but go ahead.

(22:07):
What happened, all right?

Speaker 2 (22:08):
So I used to work for this place in a
different state, and there was this lady that got hired
after me, and come to find out, I had more
experience in the position that we were in together. And
let's just say that I went out of my way
after I found out she was making more than me,
which none of us were supposed to know each other's

(22:28):
salaries right, to purposely get her fired because there was
only so much, so much room in the budget for like,
you know, the amount of money, yeah, yeah, so the
amount of money you can spend on payroll. So I
went out of my way to kind of like maybe
Facebook stock this girl and find out some some dirty
dish stuff that she did off, you know, on the

(22:51):
side that wasn't supposed to be going on posting about
work and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
We had a really really strong social media policy. So
went out of my way to get her fired, and
then proceeded to ask my boss, Hey, so I heard
that she was making this much money, I have more experience,
can you, you know, make that happen? And he did,
but she did not like the fact that I Facebook

(23:19):
stalked her. So one day I get a knock on
the door. The cops are like, you can no longer
have contact with this person. I'm like, I didn't want
to have contact with her in the first place. She
got a restraining order. No it wasn't even a restraining order.
It was just a hey, if you do this again,
we're gonna send you to jail. Is that legal? I
apparently it was. I mean it was Illinois, for God's sake,

(23:40):
So everything's weird down there. Yeah. No, I went out
of my way to get her fire so I could
take her salary. So if we learn anything from this story,
it's be nice to Dan Brown. You're safer, you don't worry. Sure,
well for now, yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna just keep
it though I know where you live. Ninety five nine
kids at them. It's and Eddie in the afternoon. Not

(24:02):
Eddie today, but Dan Brown filling in because Eddie. I
don't know where it happened to him. But you ever
like hear people talk and automatically know they're full of crap.
Oh yeah, Or you see a commercial and they use
words that just like nobody would use them in a sentence,
but they think they sound cool, like a buzzword. I
found a list of popular buzzwords. Okay, and we're gonna

(24:24):
talk about how mad they make us. I am ready,
it's ninety five to nine kids at them. I hate
when people use the word calibrate, calibrate. Yeah, like I'm
gonna calibrate your breaks, sure, because that's important for your thing.
Like but okay, Like if they say, like, I don't know,
think of something that's not big, but they're gonna calibrate it,

(24:44):
it makes it sound like a bigger job than it
really is. You want to know what one of mine is?
On God?

Speaker 2 (24:50):
You know all those kids on God on God? I
hate every time I hear someone say that, I just
want to slap them in the face.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yeah, me too, on God. Buzzwords that really make us mad.
This one does gaslighting? Yeah, that's that's fun. Fac just
call it what it is. Well, what do you even
call it? Because I mean, recently, you can't be as
er right, But I didn't know what gas I couldn't

(25:18):
tell what gaslighting meant. For the longest time. I was like,
I just don't get it, But now I get it.
It's basically like if my thing's bigger than yours, like
that's yeah, Like, uh, well, it's like, yeah, we're in
an argument, right, Yeah, and I'm being irrational or I
did something, but I'm telling you you're crazy for thinking

(25:39):
that I did it, even though I did do it,
I'm basically lying to you, Yeah, to try to convince
you that I'm right. That's what gas. But I hate
when people say it because it's overused and it's a
stupid word in the first place. Yeah, man's plaining, that's
another one for me. I hate it because man's plaining
is just a man explaining something. Yeah, But the thing is,
women do it all the time right over explain to

(26:01):
me what. Okay, I'm a Gemini and I'm a nine
life path. You only have to tell me something once.
I'm gonna remember it. And even if it's a like
a criticism, I don't want to hear it. Like beating
me to death with it just makes me more angry.
But it's man's plain stuff. Anyone who explains anything is
man or woman explaining it. Yeah, everything is an explain

(26:22):
explaining it. But the whole man's plain thing is there
you're over explaining it. Well, sometimes I got to to
get it through your thick skull. Yeah right, exactly. All right,
more buzzwords that really make us mad. Next, this is Friday,
So why not bring the mood down a little bit? Yeah,
what's the buzzword or buzz phraise? That just makes you
mad or automatically think someone is full of crap when

(26:43):
they say it. It's ninety five nine Kiss FM reading
Eddie in the afternoon. Another one is holistic. Oh yeah,
that's those holistic healers. So what does that even mean?
Like natural? Yeah, I guess why don't just say natural? Yeah?
Just saying that? I don't know, because they they gotta
have some fancy word that makes it sound good, but

(27:03):
it just makes me mad. Yeah. Uh. Synergy is another
one you set in a sentence, right, the synergy in
this building is great? Did you use that word properly
in that sentence? I don't know. I just know what
it is. Can you define that synergy is like you
use it in a sentence?

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Can you?

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Energy is like a like a machine well oiled and
working right? Yeah? Yeah right, Yeah, I'm so energy bro.
I don't know, to be honest with you, but it
sounds I feel like synergy is like the yes, the
energy and the vibe. I'm so so confused. You need
to up your synergy synergy a little bit. That's another one. Uh,

(27:47):
growth mindset? Really, what are we in a conference? Yeah, dude? Like,
how about artisanal art? Artisanal diasonal. I think you can
say are way tomato tomato, yeah, bag and bag? Bag
you say it? Milk or milk? Milk you say it?

(28:07):
Bag say bag, say bag of milk, bag of milk,
say milk milk? Okay, right, bag listen here, listen here. Uh,
you're a troll first of all. Okay, I grew up
under the mack andom, not under it, under it. I
grew up South Gondra fulls whatever or peninsula. You know what,

(28:34):
We Michiganders, we we Why didn't Why doesn't Wisconsin just
fight for the up? We don't want it? Why don't
people from Michigan use turn signals? We don't need to
kind of drive crappy. I'm just saying, no, we don't. Anyway,
you got another buzzword, unprecedented. That's I use that one
in emails all the time when I'm doing like my

(28:55):
CEO stuff. You're one of those last email Yeah, per
my life. I hate that, Like when I used to
have to send emails out to parents and then like
they would literally write me back the exact same thing
I was explaining about, Like can I ask you this question?
And per my last email? If you see paragraph three, Yeah,
oh precedented nine nine Kiss FM. It's Reed and Eddie

(29:21):
in the afternoon, just kidding. It's Dan Brown today. Yeah,
Eddie's somewhere in Illinois looking at stamps. He's at a
stamp collection getting benched and then some like some little.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Cool restaurant apparently is the wife he wanted to go
to down in Rockford.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
He says he his son loves stamps, which, okay, your
son seven. He doesn't love stampy. He's above the stams.
He wants the stamps. Yeah, so anyways, he's weird off air.
I'm just saying, this is the stamps. Dan Brown is
filling in today and it's I can't believe. How the
hell is it August? All right? Right? Yeah? August? First, man,
what the hell's going on? So there's a thing called

(29:56):
August blues. Do you get the August blues or do
you have them right now? Maybe the August blues? No,
I think I got rid of that.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
And when I took Tuesday off and went up north
and sat in the woods for twenty four hours doing
what just not being around humans.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Tripping on shrooms. No, you smile, you do game. I
don't know if I believe that not my uh, not
my scene. Well, apparently people are feeling a little down
in the month of August. It's called the August blues.
I think it's because everyone has to go back to school,
everyone's getting ready to do all that kind of crap. Yeah,
there's a lot of reason being cold soon. I know,
don't remind me a lot of reasons for it. We'll

(30:34):
talk about the August blues next. So getting the August
blues is a real thing. I don't know if I've
had it, like when people get like kind of depressed
or sad in the month of August. Maybe a little bit,
And I'll tell you why. It's ninety five to nine
Kiss FM reading Eddie in the Afternoon with Dan Brown today.
So apparently people a lot of people start feeling down

(30:56):
in the month of August. So they say it's because
it signals the end of summer. Yeah, that's kind of
like the Sunday Scaries of the summer. Sunday scary and
it's the end of the fun. It makes people think
of all the stuff they wanted to do over the
summer but didn't end up doing, and then they feel
like a failure. And then, like you said, it's back
to school stuff. So maybe that's why I don't feel
it is just because I feel like I am missing

(31:19):
out on everything all the time. So it's like an
everyday blues for me. First, that's sad, you know, like
I have not taken an actual vacation, vacation where I
can leave for a week and not be in the
state and not really care about anything in so many
years that it's not funny. So let me tell you something.
So never going to Cheeseburger Fest next week. Yeah, next week,

(31:39):
I'm going, and I go every year, but still that's
not quite a vacation. I'm going back to Michigan and
my parents have a place, so it's it's it's a
getaway kind of thing, but it's not a vacation. I
have never in my adult life had a vacation. Yeah,
an actual trip vacation, I've never had one. I just
want to be like Joe and go to Mexico and
sit my time on the beach somewhere four times a year. Yeah. Dude,

(32:03):
just got back from the Guy's got like some seven
weeks of vacation, he said, must be nice. I just
want one vacation before I die, So like, how do
we get petty? And how do we get petty? Dan
Brown is the petty king, let's say at Kiss FM.
So all right, we're gonna need to concoct a plan
to blackmail our bosses into giving us paid bait. We

(32:23):
should move him into Beach's old office. Just jud joke, Yeah,
just as a joke. Yeah, I don't know. No, I
definitely have the August blues because I did realize I've
never taken a vacation my life. I know it's well,
we're gonna go premeditate stuff. You enjoyed these next two songs.
Yeah bye, ninety five nine Kiss FM reading Eddie in
the afternoon with Dan Brown filling in for Eddie today

(32:45):
and a little bit later it's a fun fat Friday
for Kiss FM nights with Dan Brown. So I need
a fun fact. I'm gonna blow your mind.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Okay, all right, the map is not the territory, but
in your brain, the map you used to model reality
is continually rewritten by belief, expectation.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
And perception. I don't know what the heck you just said.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
Okay, Basically, your sensory input is noisy and partial. Okay,
so your brain fills in the gaps using like prior
models of what you had experienced in the past. Basically, right,
that's why two people can witness the same event and
remember it completely differently.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
Okay, so what you.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
Experience as what what's out there you know, is constructed
perceived model tuned in for your survival basically that's so.

Speaker 1 (33:34):
Does that make sense? Yeah, that does make sense. But
like there was a thing in Talk Talk Okay, put
your tinfoil hat on. I'm all right, let's go so
back in the day, you need to get some tin
foil hats. I'm just I mean for real, Like the CIA,
they did these experiments on people, and they apparently talking
about Project blue Book. I think that's what it's called
with the uh mind, yeah, the what do they what

(33:58):
do they call that? Where you like project oh, astra, projection, No, projection.
What I'm talking about is the CIA figured out you
can basically create memory, false memories from people and it's
super easy. Oh yeah, No, it's all about repetitiveness. Now,
when you think about it this way, when you remember
something like remember something that happened a week ago, you're
not remembering that thing, You're remembering how you remember it, Right,

(34:19):
and if that changes a little bit. Now, all of
a sudden, this person you talked to didn't have red hair,
had blonde hair, right, and didn't have sunglasses, but regular classes,
and then those small things change, and now you completely
don't remember exactly what happened. You just think you do.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
And that's exactly why this is saying, like two people
can witness the same event and remember it completely differently.
It's like the Truman Show. Remember the movie The Truman Show. Yeah,
it's it's sort of like that. It's like they're bending
reality to make it.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
Seem like you know, well, I wish I could make
it seem like I had a million dollars in my
pocket right now?

Speaker 2 (34:56):
Well you do you do project in frequency. If you
think about it enough, good things will start happening. Like
you have to set that mindset in motion.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
So if you wake up every day and like I'm wealthy,
I feel good, Like eventually you'll get there. But that's
not a weird fact, right, like this weird Jem Foyle
hats time. I don't like it. You're thinking to our
YEP ninety five nine Kiss FM reading Eddie in the afternoon.
Eddie didn't show up today. So Dan Brown filled in.
I have had the best time hanging out with you today.

(35:28):
I think it's always fun and it's good and I
appreciate you coming in. Eddie did not show up. He's
he's at stamps. Yeah, he's at a stamp He's don't
let anyone lie to you. He's looking at stamps, a
stamp collecting convention in Springfield, Illinois. Anyways, who goes to
Springfield for anything? Eddie does? But that's it for me.
Read Dan Brown sticking around doing double duty and it's

(35:50):
a fun fact Friday. Yeah I am. I'm about to
blow your mind, are you? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (35:54):
Yeah, okay, Almost every shuffle of a deck of cards
has never happened before in the history of these.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
You know what. I have heard this, and I just
can't believe that to be tried. Right, I'm gonna tell
you why.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
A standard fifty two card deck has fifty two right,
fifty two factoral possible orderings about eight times ten to
the sixty seventh power. That is vastly more than the
number of atoms in the solar system or the age
of the universe in seconds. So when you rifle shuffle
a deck, basically the exact sequence you create is almost

(36:27):
certainly unique all the time. No way, you are holding
a singular arrangement that's never existed and, with overwhelming probability.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
See will never be seen again. I think. Statistically, I'm
sure the numbers will add up right because of math
and stuff. But I'm telling you, if I shuffle a
deck of cards, it's happened before, right, Okay, so and
just know it has. So.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
I want you this weekend, well you're there drinking your whatever,
Kirkland Seltzer's, to sit at your house with a deck
of cards and shuffle, lay them out, take a picture, shuffle.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
Lay them out.

Speaker 2 (37:02):
Take I guarantee you out of even if you do
it ten times, you're never going to have the same way.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Well no, not ten, but I feel like over the
hundreds of years it's happened before. Anyways, we gotta go by.
Thanks Friday, Dan Brown up next fun fac Friday and
Joel Hey, thanks for having me. Yeah, thanks for coming on, dude,
