That's you had to upgrade. That'swhat you did. So they're they're
fine. You can upgrade. Thepeople allow for it. It's cool.
So, by the way, whatcompany are you testing those out for?

(06:56):
Several different so as my husband isuh working in internet store, the biggest
in Finland, and he is operatingthe technology site of it and decides what

(07:17):
they are going to buy and allthat. When we were made the first
video, m the offers just cameflooding in. So we have a lot
of stuff coming up to test book. I'm super excited. This is great.

(07:41):
And then you know, any wayI can help you, let me
know. I got you guys.So all right, so let's let's let's
talk about this back to school thing. First off, your kids are in
the younger grades. Obviously, they'reyou know, they're they're the smaller I
want to say, grammar school children, right that the before middle school,

(08:03):
right, they're they're they're not injunior high yet, right still they're in
elementary technically, Okay, yeah.Uh so do you guys go through the
same issues as the uh schools hereare going through now with a lack of
teaching staff? Uh not really exceptfor a special education teachers. Okay,

(08:28):
Well that's always been a thing here. We always have least, you know,
not enough special education teachers there.As a matter of fact, this
year I've seen more students that shouldbe in special ed in general population.
Again, like they're they're not thatthey should be separated by any means.
It's just the fact that they needmore one on one attention than you know,
certain and but they're not getting itbecause there's no funding for it.

(08:50):
So yeah, yeah, in here, there are some integration classes that might
sound takes. So he's in nomore classic right sometimes, but he because
of his several diagnoses, he canbe quite explosive. Yep, I know

(09:13):
how that is. Yeah. Andthen my daughter has uh untreated ADHD and
uh what is the word, difficultieswith dialxic dyslexic, gotcha, Yeah,

(09:37):
so it's really good for her tobe in a smaller class and where they
can focus teacher, right, yeah, exactly where other kids need to focus
as well. Not you know,And I hate to say it because it's
not every school, it's not everykid, but my personal experience and in
this school nowadays, according to mykids, it hasn't changed much in the

(10:01):
same school, mind you. Allright, Look, I went to the
same school my kids go to,all right, And that's that's rare these
days anymore, you know what Imean. Like, I know a handful
of people here in my class thatstayed here, you know what I mean,
Like I didn't stay here. Itried to get away, but it
ended up coming back because it wascheaper. And you know there's a reason
for that people. Okay, there'sa reason why it's cheaper to live in

(10:24):
these areas. But anyway, Idigress. So the school I had just
as much, let's say, nonfunding for the proper things that you would
think a school would need funding for. And they they my school in uh
you know it, personally, myschool had more funding put towards the sports

(10:46):
programs. All right, that wehave a theater program, right that's been
running since the school opened, aswell as the sports program. You know
what I mean. Uh, thesports program, uh seems to get a
good seventy five percent of the fundingthat comes to the you know, the

(11:07):
extracurricular activities and all that other stuff. You know what I'm saying, because
their their reasoning is that they makemore money, which is not true in
the slightest. The theater department alwayshas packed rooms, right, they are
always these kids work their asses offon top of doing their school work.

(11:28):
Some of them are even doing sportsat the same time, right, And
the funding for the theater program islike fifteen percent. They've had the same
stage cracks in all since I wasgoing to school thirty plus years ago.
There my daughter who just went tocollege this year. We just took her

(11:48):
to college. She was that washer biggest complaint because she was a theater
kid the whole time she was there. She's like, Dad, the theater
at the stage is falling apart.I'm like, yeah, it was falling
apart when I went as we werehaving these same arguments with these people.
And now I come to find outthat everything comes out of the theater department's

(12:09):
own pockets to fund these things,which is why they charge you know,
parents to come see the theater,you know, the plays and stuff,
and they do fundraisers all year longbecause it literally comes out of the theater
teacher her pocket to run these plays. Fact. Yeah, Like I found

(12:30):
this out and I'm like, thatis totally ridiculous. I'm like, as
a taxpayer, for one, thatis ludicrous. Like I believe these theater
kids should have just as much fundingas the sports kids. I don't.
I'm not saying take that shit awayfrom the sports kids, you know what
I mean. It makes money I'mnot saying it doesn't make money, but

(12:50):
the theater makes justice. You can'tunderplay what the theater does. And the
arts is a major brain developing thingfor our children. Like it's yes,
so what they can kick a football? Can they read a book? Can
they can? They know it?Right? Most of these kids, I
hate to say it can't. LikeI when I was going to high school,

(13:11):
Case in Point, and I'm notgonna drop names because he is a
decent guy, right, he's agood guy, but he couldn't read a
lick right throughout high school. Likeand it wasn't just lexia, he just
couldn't do it right because nobody pushedhim to do it. Nobody said they
pushed him ahead because he was tall. He was like six foot three in
fifth grade, okay, and hewas good at basketball, good at baseball,

(13:33):
good at football. So what theydo The gym teachers were like,
dude, just play sports. Didn'tevery fucking day fought for that kid to
just get pushed ahead, pushed ahead, pushed ahead. And now he has
children who I hate to say it, but they're dumbest bricks, like they're

(13:56):
just and I really and I don'tlike talking about children like that because it
reflects on you know, I'm oh, I'm an asshole because I talk about
kids. No, I'm actually talkingabout his parents' reflects on your child.
That's great there, I went toschool with him. I can talk about
him all I want. But butlike it just goes to show, like

(14:16):
the funding difference for these things isridiculous, and and the and the the
the lack of teachers teaching these kidsis also a big discrepancy. Like you
don't have you have in my schoolagain, there's uh, I want to
say fifty to sixty students per classroom, like and which doesn't sound a lot,
you know what I mean. Butwhen you're one teacher in there and

(14:37):
you're like trying to get your pointacross and all these kids, half of
them even are just not giving ashit about what's going on, and you
know you can't focus. You needto lower those class numbers, I think.
So you need to have more moneytowards your teachers, but to pay
these people to make them want tocome to work, because right now,

(14:58):
eighty percent of the teachers don't wantto come to friends. This is so
different in Finland. Really, letme hear about it. Because I need
to know that. The other sideof this, well, the theater,
theater, theater, Oh god,well, we didn't really have funding for

(15:18):
most stuff. We we got whatwe needed, but it was equal.
But when we had we were rehearsinga play. If we needed to have
a rehearsal when there was another classgoing on, we had a permission to

(15:41):
go practice. But one as wholeof our feature lowered all of our grades
because we were away. Oh yeah, see that that happens too. Yeah
yeah, And I think our glassclass diases are about thirty to forty.

(16:04):
Okay, that's still I mean that'sI would think even like maybe twenty would
be good. You know what Imean? Because that's I actually have a
fact, which is it was tooboring to read in the fact. Second
bag, if it's it all right? Finland has shorter school days. In

(16:29):
Finland, students have shorter school daysand less homework compared to many other countries,
yet that they consistently achieve high academicresults. They focused on quality over
quantity. That's what we should dohere. We have our kids go to

(16:49):
school for how long your schooldays,Well, the little ones go four to
four to five hours okay, andthe bigger one maybe from eight to four

(17:14):
okay. So that's that's roughly aboutwhat we our kids go to school from.
Classes start about seven. Uh,well they leave the house at six
thirty, but the classes start atseven uh seven thirty and around two thirty
three thirty something like that. Soyeah, they're they're okay, they're roughly
the same in that situation the timefor it, but nowhere where they are

(17:36):
longer. That could just be myarea though too. I don't know.
So we we are schools. Everyschool around is different, like they function
on different you know standards, likeevery town. It is ridiculous, like
in my state. We in London, it's every everywhere in Finland is basically
the same, the same because wehave a law law for okay, yeah,
our laws are getting stripped here,so you know, like everything that

(18:02):
was pushed for education is getting returnedback to where it was back when you
know, dipshit Republicans were running theplace. And guess what. Yeah,
so, uh, we're we're goingbackwards here in the United States, and
I don't like it. So it'sbeing are going backwards. Uh good segue
is the first song We're gonna playtoday is uh uh is something I picked

(18:23):
out in the history class uh sectiontoday of the lesson uh So. It
is by a group called the ArenaHarvey Band, and it is called the
Last Shanty. It's a little piratedirge, you know, a little,
a little, a little sea shanty. It's called the Last Shanty. Here
we go. Well, my fatheroften told me when I was just a

(18:44):
lad, a sailor's life is veryhard. The food is always bad.
But now I've joined the navy,I'm a boreder man, a whore,
and now I found a sailor.Ain't a sailor anymore. Don't paul on
the road, don't climb up themask if you see might be your last
statricity for another on the shore anymore. I love this. I don't know

(19:11):
why this song has gotten to melately. Like I think these tiktoks in
the shorts YouTube shorts, there's thesekids that are doing like ren fair stuff
and pirate stuff like outfits and shiit, and like my daughter watches all this
stuff and like this one girl becausethere's all this pirate stuff and she uses

(19:32):
these songs like this and and acouple of the other old one, you
know, like you know, likeuh uh Drunken Sailor and stuff like that,
right like and a bunch of itand they use ren fair stuff and
they use these songs a little clipsand it just stuck to my head and
I'm like, I actually kind oflike this song, like it's a good
song. And then now I've beenlooking going down a rabbit hole the fucking

(19:52):
old like fucking Irish like sea songs, and like, fucking it's great.
It's it's it's great, great,it's it's a whole genre of music.
I never thought that I would,like, you know, like yes,
yeah, exactly, well what wasthat? Sometimes I hear it, I

(20:21):
hear the music, okay, anybreak up and then it comes back.
So I'm just sure I hear itbecause it quick like stroll like you here
good it's another sailor, the Sailorprold quick. Yeah. But if if

(21:06):
it doesn't sounds good while everything willjust throw it in there. It might
be just me and the internet connectionwere far away at that time time And
don't hear your every word which hasbeen happening always. That's that's that's an

(21:29):
internet yeah. Cancapara Day and that'syour bleeding lot. And now we've got
an extra one because it's up thedots, so honors to be close.
I'm sure a sailor's just a sailor, just like he was before the road.
Don't fine the you know, it'sjust fun. Yes, ready and

(21:57):
one fin. I would have neverever show him to listen before this theme.
I do like it. It's funas hell for me, all right.
So that was the last chancy.That was a good song. Go

(22:19):
check them out again. As always, I try to post the links in
the descriptions or I will put themup somewhere at least on Twitter or whatnot
or X sorry X, now mybad. I don't know about that stuff.
I'm not calling them xes, youknow what I mean. I'm twitting

you sent me a nice little linkor a song by a guy named mister
B the Gentleman rhymer. Uh whatis what is this man all about?
Do you? I've never actually heardof this guy, me neither before neither.
This was this is the song Iwas just talking about it was weird

(23:12):
and funny and I sort of likedit. And his name pretty much tells
everything. He rhymes. He's agentleman. Yes, I suppose I don't
know him well. This song isin our grammar section. So, oh,

(23:33):
you English majors, get out thereand pay attention here. This is
mister b the gentleman rhymer the grammarsong right there. Class, pay attention.
Open your textbooks and page thirty four, titled the Fifth Elements of chap
Hawk. We're going to study partone use of the English language and in

(23:57):
particular grammar. Watch your eyes andyour eastphees. You will always please if
you keep an ear on these.I'm neither frighteningly striking nor a lovely lady.
I use the English language as ameans to age me. I'm setting

(24:18):
up my soul. As the markettrader say. I'm not a market trader,
and they don't work in the day. I'm here to win the battle,
hope. I'm not a little late. I'm not here to tittle tackle.
I just hit it t late.If I whip you with with don't
come at me with a hammer.If we're using weapons, I choose grammar.
I'll take you right the scores ofmy shoes. You'll be a mice
in the pose of my prose.But we nor would suppose, nor would
we go if you take your dyingsouth for an awkward propose. Don't rest

(24:41):
upon your law stammer in the grammarwar. Next test is all strictly for
the hardcore. Now look here,I'm not suggesting that I always do the
best I can and I'm always polite. Grammar like banners, so much the
touch of class could be attained withthe simplest application. Pay attention to some
rules. New gain qualifications through clubmercury with my charms and night filling out

(25:02):
toms with pie what putting the worldto right. Girls in tights can hurl
their spite in burless fight, butthe words must be right and proper.
Don't tell whoppers to the coppers.Drop props and you'll be a lovely prop
dropper. Am I digressing again?I think I am a tad Grammar grammar
is totally important. It makes evenwhen one autumn grammar like an achievable girl

(25:25):
to improve your chances on the grammargramma's terribly important. An achiever more girl
to improve your chances on the whole. But there's a common missing there somewhere,
a gentleman rapper, mister b Thatdude is awesome. That is yeah,

(25:47):
I think I get that is awesome. That is so good. Grammar
is important and it's very important.And I'm so glad you know that he
was had to tell me that becauseit is hilarious. So, speaking of
grammar, Hannah does this thing calledfacts, and we kind of this is

(26:11):
the facts portion of the show,So we're gonna go right into that and
Hannah, Yeah, I tried tolook for facts that have something to do
with school, but they were kindof boring. So I'm gonna tell you

(26:37):
one fact about school and then somerandom ones, funnier one. This blew
my mind. In Iceland, it'scommon for students to have no homework during
their entire primary education. I thinkthat's just that's so cool. Yeah,

(27:02):
I would love because I've been abig proponent ever since I was in school
about not having homework. You're inschool for like six to eight hours a
day. What do you need thehomework for. That's supposed to be your
downtime like that? Yeah, thatthat's your kids need to recharge, you
know what I mean, Like theycan't keep constant work, work, work,
work, you know what I mean. Like it's not it's not good
for them, honestly, So theyneed to be children at some point,

(27:26):
you know, and especially as themother of two special needs child children.
They are so tired. They havebeen trying their bath all day. Yes,
the other one has been bullied quiteheavily and the noises make him agg

(27:48):
aggravated, and the other one hasproblems learning and focusing. And said,
then they sent them home and theyhave the a's homework and we all cry
and try to do them. Iknow how that goes. I'm the father
of two special needs children, soI gets no more power to everybody.

(28:18):
Maybe we should just move into Iceland. Yeah, I have. I'm with
it. I'm with it. Andyou know, people, it's actually green.
There go figure, Right, it'sactually green. There go figure.
I have always wanted to visit Icelandbecause they have these gays ears and the

(28:41):
volcanic activity and what's not Oh,it's my dream. It has always been
my dream to go there one day. I would love to, but I
can't get on a plane. I'mnot good with heights and planes scared them.
Okay, I get anxiety driving overbridges now, Okay, Like I

(29:03):
don't know what the hell is wrongwith me anymore because I used to be
fine with it, Like heights wasalways a big thing, but driving over
bridges was cool because I was ina car, you know what I mean.
Now I'm like white knuckle holding onto the steering wheel like this is
no. I don't like this,Like why am I doing this? So?
Please? Tend to get worse whenyou're in when you get older.

(29:25):
Every year, every year things aremore scary for some reason exactly I don't
know why either. Nope. Butthen some biology, a group of flamingos
is called flamboyant. Ah, thatis awesome. I love that. Hell

(29:51):
yeah, I mean it makes sense. It makes sense a flamboyant. Yes,
flamingos are very flamboyant to begin soit's makes definite sense that there it's
called a group of a flatboyant.That is awesome. Yeah. Then history.
The shortest war in history was betweenBritain and Zanzibar on August twenty seven,

(30:18):
eighteen ninety six. It lasted justthirty eight minutes. What was it
like? A bad poker game goingwrong or something like like I declare war
on you. Oh, I geta clear respine, let's do it.
Thirty minutes later, they're hugging onand meaning it's fine, it's cool.
You're my best Yeah, you're mybestie. Let's go have another pike.

(30:41):
It's awesome. Yeah hmm ooh geometricgeometricain geometry. Well, yes, that's
the one. The name for theshape of a pringless can, yes,

(31:06):
springles can. It's called hyperbolic paraboloid. Hyperbolic paraboloid. Okay, yeah,
okay, I got you. Ithought it was a tube. Yeah,
I thought it was just a tube. Man, some uh physics or science.

(31:37):
There are more possible iterations of agame of yes than there are atoms
in the known universe. Really,how is that possible? I thought,
like, you know what I mean, like they keep reproducing and hm hmm

(32:01):
that's so, Like where are theycoming up with these? Like how do
they get that fact? Like Iwant to know who what's the scientist's name?
What's his name? Do they giveit? These people? I'm thinking
they the information in some kind ofa super complete computer. All right,

(32:24):
that makes and how many possibilities withgotcha, all right, that kind of
I guess it makes I don't knowabout more than any atom in the universe
or whatever, but I think thereit's a good, good number. It's
got to be almost infinite at thatpoint too, So all right, maybe

(32:46):
I don't know. I'm not ascientist. I can't. Who am I
who might have challenged a supercomputer?You know I can't. I can't even
challenge a t I eighty one,you know what I mean. There's an
old school fucking give it a calculator. I can barely do that. Oh,
then I have no this I'll I'llsave for later. Pe pretty criminals

(33:13):
and funny law. Do you wantto tell one more for biology? Sure,
doctor Puss, Right, that's good, that's good. They have three
hearts, two pump blood to thegive and one pump it's to the rest

(33:43):
of the body. French three hearts. That's yeah, that's that's OCTOPI I
believe maybe the I don't know.I could be wrong multiple commands. I
think they're both both are right.I know because I've been for some fucking

(34:04):
weird reason, I've been beinking onthis guys YouTube. Okay, he's a
fish scientist and his hiller hilarious.And I'm playing my games and listening to
him, and he said they're bothcorrect. I believe him. I believe

(34:30):
him too. And on the sciencenote, let's let's talk to some other
scientists here. Listen to him,the Beastie Boys, and I believe that
they were scientists. They had awhole album called Intergalactic and they dressed in
scientists suits, so that that qualifies. So this is a song hand of
it called the Sounds of Science,and I love this track. It's such
a good track. So here wego. Beastie sound it is. I

(34:57):
know, it gets a beat up, nice thump to it's I'm gonna try
to watch the volume years again.I very pretty badly. You said,
pretty loudly badly. It's better again. So I hope it's just the internet

(35:19):
or whatever, because I hear itperfectly clear over here. It's just yeah,
okay, Yeah, this is sucha good track. And I love
the yes paid I know plenty oftimes. Yeah, I remember all of
this song hard. Yeah, thiswas such an underrated album. You know,

(35:46):
nobody ever talks about Pauls. Youknow, they always talk about like,
you know, uh, hello,Nasty Year. They talk about you
know, uh the uh the won'tfight for your right you know. Uh,
but the Pauls machique always seems toget like, oh, it's it's

(36:07):
it's just weird because it wasn't reallya beast you know. It wasn't like
the Beastie Boys before, and itwasn't like the Beast Boys after it.
Like they the Beasts were masters ofreinvention, you know what I mean.
Like when they first started out,they were a punk you know what I
mean, And then they then theywent to a rap like just straight up
just rap, you know, greatheavy kind of just rap. And then

(36:28):
they bring the polls Utique, whichis like disco. You know, Dust
Brothers produced it. So it waslike there it was a real different album,
like different style, disco based,and like they went crazy with it.
And then so the next one,uh you know, they switched it
back up to like more hip hopstyle and then you know, hello,

(36:49):
t see, then they went fuckingyou know, more technical, like the
techno beats and stuff like that addedto it. They just yeah, electoral
style and stuff, and and likethey went playing their own instruments again,
you know a lot of the stuff. And I was like these guys are
were multi fast and the multi sala. They don't really get the the you

(37:10):
know, the recognition that they deserve, like in anything, like everybody says,
oh, the greatest white rapper ofall time? Who would they say?
There you go? Right? Andthen and then who else would they
think of before that? You don'tknow the ice right, they wouldn't you
think right? See, because Ithink I have a theory about this thing,

(37:35):
right, I think that people don'tsee the Beasties as white rappers.
I think they just see them asrappers, you know what I mean,
Like they they're multi genre and they'reartists. They're just they're there, like
they don't if you say a whiterapper, you're not gonna be like,
oh yeah, the Beastie Boys wereright, you know what I mean,

(37:55):
that's what you kind of like,you just like, oh, their music
was the orange versatility. You know, there's mhm some songs that are like
Latin affiliated, and then there's thepunk, and then there's who knows who

(38:20):
wants There are many songs that theyactually sing to be fair not pretty well,
but so they do all I didall kinds of Yeah, I think
they actually have something new coming inand tell you the truth. They were

(38:43):
putting out like a mix of oldstuff that they haven't put out, like
it was just unreleased stuff and allthat other and reworks of older stuff.
Uh you know he's rest in peace. Uh you know m c A.
So he's but other you know thatthey're ship man. I missed the Beastie
Boys. Saw say, I missedthe Beastie Boys, and the greatest white
rappers of all time may go toEminem with the Beastie Boys or second.

(39:06):
That's what I'm saying. So that'sat least what I'm saying. If everybody
wants to say Eminem is the greatestwhite rapper, that's your opinion. He's
had more hits technically than the BeastieBoys, if you want to go that
route whatever. But the Beastie Boys, Yes, Beastie Boys were more consistent.
They they did stuff, and theyalways seem to chart, even if

(39:30):
it wasn't like at the top.They were always charting though, you know
what I mean. So even ifthey were doing something really out of the
blue at it, you know,just weird and third base. Let's keep
this music train going. This isa guy I'm dedicating this one of my
my oldest daughters in college right now, Lily, because it's one of her
favorite singers all the time. Hisname is Tom Lair. This song is
called new Math. He does geekymusic, you know, really like parodies

(39:54):
and stuff. And he did onecalled the Periodic Table song, which they
imitated on Tiny Toon Adventures and youknow what I mean. And the country.
Yeah, it's where he went throughthe periodic tables in the theme of
the modern major General from the Piratesof Penzance. Yeah, this one is

(40:15):
called new Math, and it's actuallyreally good. This one, literally,
this is for good. Some ofyou who have small children may have perhaps
been put in the embarrassing position ofbeing unable to do your child's arithmetic homework
because of the current revolution in mathematicsteaching known as the New Math. So
as a public service here tonight,I thought I would offer a brief lesson

(40:37):
in the New Math. Tonight,We're going to cover subtraction. This is
the first room I've worked for awhile. It didn't have a blackboard,
so we will have to make dowith more primitive visual aids. As they
say in the ad Biz, considerthe following subtraction problem. Try to put

(40:58):
up here and forty two minus onehundred and seventy three. Now, remember
how we used to do that.Three from two is nine, carry the
one, And if you're under thirtyfive or went to a private school,
you say seven from three is six. But if you're over thirty five and
went to a public school, yousay eight from four is six, and

(41:20):
carry the one. So we haveone hundred and sixty nine. But in
the new approach, as you know, the important thing is to understand what
you're doing rather than to get theright answer. These video than that players.
Really, here's how they do it. Now. You can't take three
from two too is less than three. So you look at the four in

(41:42):
the tens place. Now that's reallyfour ten. So you make a three
tens, regroup, and you changea ten to ten ones, and you
add to the two and get twelve, and you take away three. That's
nine. Is that clear now insteadof four in the tenth place, you've
got three because you added one.That is to say ten to the two.
But you can't take seven from three. So you look in the hundreds
place. From the three, youthen use one to make ten ones and
you know why four plus minus oneplus ten is fourteen minus one because addition

(42:06):
is commutative, right, And soyou got thirteen tens and you take away
seven and that leaves five, wellsix, Actually, fuck, the idea
is the important thing. Now,I'll go back to one hundred's place.
You left with two, and youtake away one from two, and that
leaves everybody get one. Not badfor the first day, All right for

(42:31):
you Math here? Who Math?It won't do you a bit of good
to read you Math. It's sosimple, so very simple, that only
a child can do it. Now, that actually is not the answer that
I had in mind, because thebook that I got this problem out of

(42:51):
wants you to do it in baseeight. But don't panic. Base eight
is just like base ten. Reallyif you're missing two fingers, So we
have a go at it. Hangon, you can't take three from two.

(43:12):
Two is less than three. Soyou look at the four in the
eighth place. Now that's really foureight. So you make a three eights
regroup and you change in eight toeight ones, and you add for the
two, and you get one twobase eight, which is ten base ten,
and you take away three. That'sseven okay, Now instead of four
in the eighth place, you've gotthree because you added one, that is
to say, eight to the two. But you can't take seven from three.
So you look at the sixty fours, sixty four. How did sixty

(43:35):
four get into it? I hearyou cry, Well, sixty four is
eight square, don't you see?Well, you ask a silly question,
you get a silly answer from thethree. You then use one to make
eight ones. Yea. Add thoseones to the three and you get one
three base eight or another words inbase ten, you have eleven, and
you take away seven, and sevenfrom eleven is four. Now I'll go
back to the sixty fours. Youleft with two, and you take away

(43:55):
one from two, and that leavesno, let's not always see the same
hands one. That's right. Whoevergot one can stay after the show and
clean the erasers. Or for newmath math, it'll won't do you.
I've been I'm going to read fewmath. It's so simple, so very

(44:20):
simple. Not only a child cando it. Come back tomorrow night,
we're gonna do fractions. That wastom new math. I don't understand new
math at all. My kids comehome with math homework and I'm like,
you're really asking the wrong person.I'm like, yeah, I could do

(44:44):
fractions, I can do basic adding, subtracting, multiplication, division, I
can do like ounces and uh,I can do you know, the metric
system and weighing and measuring and stufflike that. But this, they're trying
to do simple math problems and they'retrying to make them do like hurdles to
go through to get the answer,and it's sometimes it's not the answer that

(45:07):
I would give, but it's stillthe right answer. Like I'm like,
I don't understand how that works.I've never planned to understand that. I've
never claimed to understood math, likeI said anything after Well, I used
to be really good at math,but then several years not using math,

(45:30):
and now I don't remember exact Luckily, I have a housband who I helped
my son went to his math becauseI have no clue. Well, the
bad thing is Mede my way forthe same way. So we rely on
our oldest daughter now to help ourkids. And I'm like, no,
you, yeah, you go helpthem out. So now she's on FaceTime

(45:53):
with them, you know, likefrom college, like helping them out with
stuff. So it's fine, that'snice. Yeah, they play, they
get on the discord there and theyplay their games and stuff and uh,
you know, they keep busy again. So she's she's justin well there.
She's joined to like two clubs,you know, and uh, she's got
like classes every day today, she'sonly got one class on Mondays, she's

(46:15):
like one class. But goddamn placeslike a hotel except for except her dorm
rooms like a fucking jail cell.And I know that from experience. Both
ends of it. So tiny ashell with two people in it, like
ah god, and it looks literallyin its concrete walls like on my basement.
I'm like, this is this isbad. They pay all his money,

(46:37):
holy shit. But they they're literallyright across from the dining hall,
like the one common so they gettheir food whenever they want. They can
do whatever they want where it's alltaken care of. Uh, they got
like, uh shit. She joineda D and D club so they play
dungeons and Dragon. She joined acouple of Yeah. Yeah, it's it's
pretty neat. You know. Shejoined in LGBTQ because she's you know,

(46:58):
uh buy I guess or I'm notsure what she is anymore. Uh,
she likes she she's dating a girl, you know that. And then but
she's she also likes guys, butshe's more towards the girl. So I
don't know if you want to callher by really or just you know,
she has really more, she's moreor lesbian. I guess, I guess,

(47:19):
I guess or maybe pan is thatwas that what they call it?
Because I don't understand that stuff.I'm not sure, but I can't they
like a person not okay, that'swhat that means. Okay, because I
was wondering if it was just likeif they were into Peter Pan type people

(47:42):
or I'm like, did your littleelf style? Maybe? Is that what
the pan thing is or the butno, yeah, legit, though I
didn't understand, I didn't know whatit was, that's good. That's good.
Good way to explain it to me. Actually, is they like the
right right? No? No?No? And I feel awkward asking,

(48:05):
yeah, like I observe she'll tellyou she wants Oh no, she knows.
I know, she knows. Iknow. It's just it's it's just
the and she knows. I acceptit. It's it's I just we don't
talk about it. Yeah, it'swe don't talk about it because, honestly,
I really I probably blame myself.I haven't brought it on, you
know, I haven't really brought upthe situation. It's just me though.

(48:27):
I'm at that awkward phase where I'mlike, you know, like, I'm
glad she's found somebody that makes herhappy, and that's all I really care
about. Do I really need todelve in with these what they're calling it?
No, I don't really. Somepeople don't want to put themselves in
book. Yeah, why should right? And And like I said, it's

(48:51):
she's uh, found herself somebody cool. I like the person she's you know,
she's with them good good. I'veknown them since they were so it
is what it is. So theymade it official right before she went to
college. It's funny. It wasso cute. I have to mention before

(49:12):
someone in the audience gets mad.The difference in bisexuals and fan sexuals is
also that bisexuals usually don't go fortrans sexuals okay, yeah, and fan

(49:36):
sexuals don't mind, they don't care, they just want okay. See no,
that makes sense to me, youknow what I mean? Like that
that makes sense? Like that thatthey just want a person. You know
what I mean that that definitely justmakes sense. And that's right. That
is a good thing. I getyou know what. I get it.

(49:59):
They Oh, I get it.That that makes perfect sense. Yay,
thank you, thank you for formaking I get it, baby girl,
Lily, I get it. Okay. Cool. I'm starting to learn I'm
not as dumb as everybody thinks Iam. It's fine, You're not dumb.

(50:19):
I mean, you would think Igot college education, you would think
I wouldn't be. But sometimes Ireally do think. I just I got
pushed through myself and I didn't knowit. So I'm just like speaking of
getting pushed through and I'm just playingback to school. We're going to the
deaftnes here uh and I picked agood back to school. This is so
good. I'm a big fan ofthe deaftnesh. So I haven't listened to

(50:45):
this song you know a little bit. Uh, So here we go.
This is is definitely a song thatI haven't heard a little while. Very
fun. My dude, though youain't in school, you are way old

(51:14):
to be in that school. I'msaying. The lead singer of that that
that group, full on Beard,Sorry, I go on the video right
ad to get it like good,and this dude is like, I gotta
describe it. I can't see that'sgood. So I'm it's this dude is
obviously it was like late twenties,maybe your early thirties, fool beard hood.

(51:37):
He ride to skateboard down the middleof the high school with a bunch
high school kids like ground, andI'm like, I remember when I go
ahead, go ahead, No,go ahead, go ahead. I remember
that's a delaying. So I don'tknows. So when I first up into

(51:59):
that zone, I was like,well, really young, maybe fifteen fourteen,
And I have this ancient computer,you know, like the bring,
and a friend of while sibling burnsme a head of depth one white phone,

(52:22):
and I tried to put it inthe computer and the computer said ederal
death, don't have permitted on lackfor something and it will be closed down.
It's finished. It's been in soa bad translation, but something about

(52:46):
bringing a law. It was.It was just a computer language. It
death meant this foil, don't Itwas a cropped file. Yeah yeah,
yeah, that's fun of this,but it it in finish. It said
it. David hasn't broken below andwe're really closing them down. Great.

(53:10):
Yeah, I remember. But backin the day, like artists used to
have the CDs with the hidden featureson it per computer, Like they'd be
like FMV versions of like their theirgood music videos or something like or like
you know, like a thousand scenesor something or like I don't oh god,
I remember that I had a Uwhat was it. I want to

(53:32):
say it was a coin DVD ora coin CD that had the scenes like
uh things like I had a littleclip of an FMV video. So the
music videos hit if you put ithit computer is the only way you were
able to find it, like youknow what I mean, and listen to
it on a computer because it cameup a little hidden video files and I
was like, oh, that's awesome, like and it was always labeled like

(53:53):
something stupid, like you would havenotice like somebody would never like go in
and actually look and then they clickedit. It's like oh shit, like
or it would be like the grouplike sitting there like talking to you like
hey, family, shit, youknow what I mean, Like stupid shit
like that, And I'm like,oh, I gotta find one of those
CDs and upload the video because Ithink I still have one of those sis

(54:15):
tell you truth, I gotta go. Look. I got so many cities,
some okay from their albums, andthere was the longest of silent so
some people thought it was over,and then there was a speakret song at
the end. I left the Horndid that again? Horn did that ship

(54:37):
with me? Follow the time?At the end of it, they had
an earache my eye at the end, which was a cover of a Chieg
and Chong fucking song from Fucking Upand Smoke, And I was all for
it. That was Deftones. Everybodyback to school. That was great.
I'm I'm I'm such a big fanof theirs, really honestly, and I
can't really tell you I take thetruth. I felt off listening to them.

(55:00):
I don't even know if they're stilldoing anything, like do you like,
I don't because it's been such along time since I listen to them,
Like, I'm gonna have to lookthem up now and see if they're
doing anything. So but they are. I think they were at Tusca Festival
at some point, okay, lastyear or before that. I remember they

(55:29):
had a geek in scene Land,so they must be still okay, doing
stuff all right, Well, that'sgood. Then if you if you see
Deftones on the bill anywhere near yougo go definitely go see them, Go
go give them some money. I'msure. Did you have any more facts
before we get into this last song? Probably let me open this one.

(56:00):
Yeah, what should I do?Oh? Did I tell you the honey
one? No? No, Ididn't know. Honey never spoiled. Archaeologists
have found pots of honey in ancientit gets Egyptian Egyptian too, that are

(56:27):
over three thousand years old and stillperfectly edible. Wow, that's good to
know. It's good survival to honey. Yeah, it doesn't go bad when
they sell honey at the store andthey always have the marking good before this

(56:49):
date. That's bullshit. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, most of the
time that is bullshit. That's justa date they slap on there to you
know, keep the product moving andget it off the shelves as soon as
possible. Uh. Well, Igot the perfect segue because we talked about
honey, which has bees and stufflike that. They make honey and uh,
you know, bees are a vitalpart of our ecosystem, uh,

(57:14):
for reproduction. Uh and uh,that is the title of this last song
from the show movie Grease too.This is called reproduction. There we go,
segue. I'm so good at this. The parts of a flower are
so constructed that very very often thewind will cause pollination. If not,

(57:38):
or any other nectar gathering creature cancreate the same situation. Yes, anything
that gets the pollens to the pistolsright on the list. I'll try to
make it crystal clear. The flowersinsatiable passion turns its life to a circus

(58:00):
of debauchery. Now you see justhow the stamen gets its lusty dust onto
the stick. Mom, and whythis frenzy chlora phyllis orgy starts. He
spring is knowing nig mo. Wecall this quest for satisfaction of what class?

(58:22):
Well that's good, Oh, that'svery good. I'm lost. Where
are we chapter to shut killer,dump, shut, duck shut. I

(58:43):
don't think the pistol. I gotyour pistol right here. Next chapter.
How in an abstract way, thesame thing applies to the reproduct of organs
are the more complex life forms.But we are now dealing with sexual response.

(59:06):
Are there any questions before we beginreading? Is it possible the female
member of some sex on a pouchcould like get this guy or hot and
she never even knew it negative withthe warm blooded mammal in a tight little
sweater starts pulling that stuff. She'ssaying that she wants to do goodbye me

(59:29):
because it changed their tune and yougot them in the facts this heartbeating fast
and make it sound like else theycan do is saying shut shut, Yeah.

(01:00:12):
The oman is the only being capableof consciously controlling a number of offsprings.
Are there any comments on that?I wonder if you can tell me
where she lives? And what isthis mister Stewart? Is it true that
guys like you, you know,mature and all carries some protection with them,
protectual wall, cash deal. Cana girl just do that thing in

(01:00:36):
a book where she adds up thedays of her what do you call it?
The mental stration? That's again oneof the guys said, the numbers
don't add up right. This carthe Way was the big screen debut.
As far as I know, whowrong with Michelle this movie. She played

(01:00:58):
the league female big lady. Seewhat happens when a boy and girl don't
know about say? People say thisis the worst Grease movie. I might
be right, but you know what, it had a couple of good songs
and because I don't care, I'ma Grease fan that the sombrero grew up

(01:01:22):
on it. This is granted,this isn't the best you know Grease,
it's you know, but it's agood some of the songs are meant.
But you know it's all right anyway, that was Grease to reproduction. And
uh, I believe this is goingto conclude our class today, students about

(01:01:45):
uh, you know, the schoolsystem and uh the the and everything.
So I would like to say thankyou Hannah again for you know, taking
time out of your dave do thiswith me. And I would like to
say the same every one of youfor listening. Thank you very much.

(01:02:06):
It does mean a lot, thankyou. Uh so oh, I do
want to say, since you knowSpotify has changed their ways on paying people,
we need approximately forty five more subscriberson Spotify alone, period. Just
forty five more and they can startpaying us again. The keyword there is
again because we were being paid beforethey changed their so we met their subscriber

(01:02:31):
account before. Okay, they changedthe game on it. So anybody listening
who hasn't just signed up on Spotify. I don't even care if you listen
on Spotify. You can listen oniHeartRadio wherever else you listen to. Just
subscribe on Spotify. Go give usa follow, That's all I ask.
You'll find it. Yeah, bringinga description, go do it? Thank

(01:02:53):
you? Yeah? Please? Andthe money goes a very good course it
does, and i'd sales sitting thereracking up. I'm not gonna go and
make a donation unless I have somethingsubstantial. So I need to get this
money going again. And we alsosell merch people. Uh, there is
merch. Granted, sorry, therehasn't been much new merch lately, but

(01:03:15):
there will be. I'm slowly workingon some hand drawn stuff actually myself,
so this is it's taking me awhile because I haven't done drawing, drawing
and forever since college. So I'mlike, I'm slowly slowly doing this muscle.
I'm trying to get the right stuffhere. And uh, if Hannah
has any ideas, push them alongmy way and we will. We will

(01:03:37):
work this out because I we needsome money coming in for people, because
I want this, Uh, Iat least want to get a good enough
money by Christmas time to make adonation to two different places, all right,
to the Finnish hospital that we hadtalked about before for the last one
that the yeah, and a localorganization around that gives toys for children in

(01:04:01):
need around Christmas time. Okay,so that's yeah, that's my goal.
Yeah. So my peak was thisorganization that give us money and does things
for children's hospitals, and after wepay them, I want to change the

(01:04:28):
organization because they haven't been to uh, they haven't really been excited about my
trying to contact them and all.And we can always just change to a
different organization. I don't think it'sit's right because we have been talking about

(01:04:48):
it for so long. We shouldfollow through. Yeah, but after that,
I'm going to find a new costall right. Well that sounds good
to me, So everybody, again, thank you so much for listening.
Hannah again, thank you so muchfor taking time out. Tell the hubby
I said hello, and I willbe and I will be watching for your

(01:05:11):
next videos. So check them outone hand on tech. Hey, I
did it. Wow, I saidit without Okay, awesome, so cool.
Go check them out on their YouTubechannel. I'll be putting links on
