Speaker 1 (00:00):
I feel like this podcast is going to be rough
on me. It's one more thing. I'm strong and getty
one more thing at least two making fun of me
moments in the podcast today. But before we get to that,
saw this story. So, Voyager one, do you remember the
(00:20):
Voyager one mission? Is before you were even born? By
a lot, Katie. Voyager one got sent up in the
seventies and has been traveling way, way, way, flipping out
into space for a very long time. What stopped communicating
with us about five months ago, and we thought, well,
that's it, it's done. I mean, it wasn't expected to
(00:41):
the last something I said, It wasn't expected to last forever.
And then all of a sudden, yesterday they got they
started communicating again, and it started getting text and stuff
like that, and I wondered if it just responded, uh, yeah,
I must have not got your texts, or I was
busy here I got a new phone or something more,
something weird.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
If you don't know why I'm not transmitting, I'm not
going to tell you.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Voyager one goes back. I've been I've just been really
busy lately. Sorry about that or something. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Somebody at NASA called tech support, and I said, did
you try turning it off and turning it back on?
Speaker 1 (01:17):
That's something That thing is still out there after forty
seven years. I think it is traveling through space just
as far away as anything has ever been, and it's
still communicating wild Now to the uh mocking me we
got this is about the way I grill and the
pictures I've tweeted out and Katie's complain about my grilling
(01:40):
re IQ differences, which we were talking about differences different
kinds of intelligence earlier in the show. Somebody texted Jack
seems to be brilliant at history, but then he puts
his grilling utensils on the ground. So yes, there are
different kinds of intelligence.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
That's a great point.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Yes, the contrast shocking.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
I do I put the spatula on the ground.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Well not just that, but then we brought when we
pointed it out to you said well where else where?
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Should I put them? Anywhere else? Jack?
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Yes, even on a paper towel on the ground, although
that's just partial credit. Did get this note from Dan
in North Carolina. I'm with you, Jack. I have zero
interest in grilling, and am convinced that half the men
that claim to be interested are latent junior high schooler's
desperate to fit in. So, like the brave, masked intellectual
walking your parade route, I say f you to those
(02:31):
who bows.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah, I don't mean, I don't think there's got to
be a flaw. And other people that liked grill, I
just I just don't enjoy it, and I have no
interest in learning to be better at it.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
And then Dan spends a tale worth telling as an aside.
I have a relative by marriage, of course, that fancies
himself a master griller. So the propane grill was too bourgeois,
so he purchased the same charcoal grill you have, except
apparently he couldn't figure out how to install the less
so he just put it on top of a deck railing.
(03:05):
Then he lit the fire in there, burned a hole
almost completely through a plywood table, and emblazoned the leaves
around the car port, which led to a fire department visit.
Emblazoned he in quotes like that reporter, bet his steaks
are great, though. Yeah, the grillest and the anti grillist
is that the newest fault line, the dividing line in
(03:25):
American society.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, so I'm giving up on that manly skill, but
hoping I make for it and other manly areas, like
if you couldn't put the legs on that grill, you
really have no ability to fix or work on anything.
Holy crap. They're like, yeah, two screws in a wing nut. Yes, Katie,
your man card is at risk.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Oh yes, I just think that if you if you
had a different grill, it might change your experience a
little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
It can't be comfortable being down in that position grilling
at all.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
No, it's not comfortable in that position doing anything.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Right. How much did you spend for that grill?
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Jack?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
I honestly think it was on sale. I think it
was eight dollars Because it was on sale. It was
like they had two left. Should you spend dollar? Grill
guy now he's lying.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
He stole it from the guy that lives in front
of the radio station.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Right, lives in his beaten down RV.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
It's the mini Weber right that sits like a foot
off the ground. The top of it's a foot of
maybe a foot and a half.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah. I think it's designed to take with your camping
or something. It's not designed tailgate the grill you have
in your backyard, right, Yeah, it's kind of funny when
I've been looking for a house and some of these houses,
you know, they got the built in grill with the
refrigerator and the just all hed in a fan above it,
and all these differents. I think, I think this is
(04:46):
slightly different than what I hearent have. Hanson says he
knows a place you could buy by she used grills.
There you go, So I should do one with legs.
Would be handy if I didn't have to bend over. Anyway,
that's probably enough of that. This was from The Daily
Show last night. Once a week, the old host of
The Daily Show, John Stewart is on there. Pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Well, he's actually funny, which is in contrast with the
other hosts. It certainly Trevor Noah.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Wow, this features a word I knew, I never said
and never will say. And other people think this sort
of humor is funny, and so we didn't air it
on the air. But I realize other people find this humorous.
As I was explaining, though the media has systematically failed
to contest Sean.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
Please, you're killing me, my poor sweet naive older than
I remember, John, we need this messy bull spectacle. Every
other news story is a massive bummer. This Trump trial
is like an open window and a greyhound bus full
of farts. Why are you trying to close the window, John,
(05:48):
Why are you trying to make.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
A smell farts? I'm not trying to make a smell.
You're not trying to make.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
And Hans, our executive producer, thought that was funny. I
don't like that word. I don't say that word to me.
That is the F word, and so.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I will never understand that.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I don't understand it myself, but I'm appalled by that word.
And I do not find there any humor in the topic.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Okay, all right, capt'n cuckoo whatever, I'm interested in the
angle of h We need this story. It's a breath
of fresh air.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I mean, it's a Is.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
That just lefty insanity? Or I find it troubling.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Focusing on what time he arrived, what his hair looked like,
did he fall asleep? Just something that's just that as
opposed to super heavy duty, wore abortion, et cetera. I
guess yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
The weaponizing of the justice system against political candidates is
light fair.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
It's hilarious.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I think I could stay awake.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
I thought it was pretty funny that that young correspondent
said older than I remember John Stewart. She probably was
watching him in like junior high and really into it.
Now she's on the Daily Show. He's a sixties.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
How it is if you see somebody then see him
five years later, it's like, oh God, I had.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
One of those. The other day. I ran into somebody,
thought did did I have I aged the same amount
since the last time I saw you? Is you have?
That can't possibly be true?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Well, okay, I think I'm pretty sure. I didn't take
a lot of physics, but I'm pretty sure time moves
the same rate for all of us, right.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Unless one finds one's self in a black hole? Yes,
that is my understanding.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Of So if I run into somebody and they've aged
a certain amount of what lead me to believe that
I've aged the same amount too? I just haven't recognized him?
Speaker 4 (07:44):
I correct, there, sure see yourself every day.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
This probably doesn't happen to you, does a Katie? You're
too young for that.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
No, but it has. I've seen some people from high school.
I'm like, ooh, you're aging, dreamer.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Can you tell him?
Speaker 3 (07:58):
That no face probably does. I am the master of
saying it with my facial expressions.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Unfortunately, all right, people do age at different rates, though,
I mean, there's the biggest swing is fifteen years. They
say in what age you look once you get older,
depending on genetics and lifestyle. So it's not completely true
that we aged the same amount.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
And I'm realizing the ultimate do you want to look
good now or later? Is sun exposure?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Oh wow. I have a female friend who, uh, all
her friends say, why do you look so young? And
it's all because she did not tan when she was
younger like they all did, and she does look she's
fifteen years younger than her contemporaries at least. Wow. So
it is tough. Do you want to be pale person
at the pool when you're twenty two or do you
(08:47):
want to be looks forty at age fifty person when
you're older.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
That's a tough call, leather face.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah, I definitely find myself as I am rapidly aging.
Among you got your tans too much, young woman, Then
you got your tens too much forty year old woman,
and you're starting to see the signs of what might
be described as a Catcher's mitt like dermis, and then
(09:16):
you have your sixty plus tanned too much woman and
man nim birds have come home.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
To rooms right about about a hey about.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
A Yeah, that's a heck of a price to pay
to be good in tan when you were twenty five.
It really is.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, And again I don't I don't mean to be cruel.
I don't measure people by their looks. But there's no
better term than leathery. I remember we had a salesperson
referred to as tan guy.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Well he was he was, Yeah, he was super tan.
Yeah he was tan or was it actual tank? It was?
I know it was real tan because we went to
a company. Remember there was a company barbecue once and
he did the really odd thing at this company barbecue
everybody stand out where he took off his shirt and
sat in a lawn chair with everybody around at the
(10:02):
company barbecue so he could get more sons. So I guess,
I guess he was tame guy.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
All right, Yeah, work function, Yeah, but hey, sun's out,
guns out and teats nip apparently moves out exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
That was in really good shape.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
But yeah, he was not gonna waste a single opportunity
to get more UV raising. Yeah, he's gonna look a
hundred by the time he's sixty.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Well, I guess that's it.
I feel like this podcast is going to be rough
on me. It's one more thing. I'm strong and getty
one more thing at least two making fun of me
