Hello and welcome to be good.
Hello and welcome to Wundervista. Episode 288.
I am Ben and I am here on my deathbed, reflecting on a long life full of both struggle and triumph.
Of relationships formed and lost, of lessons learned and the opportunities that passed me by,
because I didn't learn them soon enough. Of avenues explored, but even more so, of paths never taken. As I reach
the end of what feels both like an age and a fleeting second, I contemplate the good that I have
done and the moments of selfishness and weakness. With the clarity of hindsight and the
soothing calm of distance, I can see where fear, jealousy, and insecurity drove me to harm others. Where hurt I received was put back into the world, where I, wounded, hurt people in turn.
But it also grants me the grace to forgive myself for these foibles.
To know that, with all being said and done, I tried pretty hard my whole life.
I would even call it my best.
With me, persistent and impossible to dismiss is the lingering memory of every time I said a syntically to syntically to sintically to to to to to to to to to to the sint, to to the sint, to to to the sint, the sint, to dismiss, is the lingering memory of every time I said a syntactically garbled and wholly untrue pleasantry to a stranger because I felt awkward and was trying
to hurry the conversation along. Hey, Theo.
Hey.
How, what are you doing?
Yeah, enjoy your pizza.
Yeah, you too.
Yeah, pizza?
Pizza.
Yeah, remember 2006?
You're a true. Do you ever feel like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like a tha Remember 2006? You dumb bitch? It's hard.
You ever feel like a stranger is tricked you into becoming worse at a conversation sometimes?
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
Not me.
I'm the all kind of omissient feeling of regret.
So, no, not me.
But you certainly, over the years, did suffer that. Yeah, a lot of those. Sometimes someone will just like, like, to say something to you that's, you. the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their their their their their their their their their their their their thi. their their their thi. their their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the thi. toe. You to to to to you certainly over the years did suffer those.
Sometimes someone will just like say something to you that's slightly weird and because
my brain's not fast enough to deal with that I say something even weirder and then the
conversation just kind of goes off the rails immediately after like four back and forth,
we're both just like complaining about something that doesn't exist at all. And there was that time where you kind of tried to salvage it with some irony and you
went, awkward!
And then that was not the right move.
That was the wrong move.
Yeah.
When it wasn't awkward, too, it was a whole stressful situation where it wouldn't be
awkward, but then someone would say awkward.
Yeah, and it just like sucked all the air out of the room.
And then you have to say, I didn't feel awkward and it hits like a lead balloon.
Nothing.
Yeah, I actually thought the conversation was going fine up until this point where you overcorrected.
I was having fun until now.
Something I really hate is, if you say something jokingly to someone about a joke they just made, you sort of try and carry on the joke, and then they say, oh no, I was just joking.
Where they've not only missed your joke, but they thought you were too stupid to realize that they were joking.
Yeah. Oof.
Now my hated one, something I suffer from still is when somebody's joking about something and I try and join in on that joke and it's taken as an insult yeah I kind of go like oh I thought we were all
joking I thought this was the the jokes time yeah they don't appreciate that
what you should do is reply to podcast hosts that you don't really know
them they don't know you really and if they're joking around and saying oh you dumb idiot to each other you should jump in and you you you you you you you you you you you you you th th th th th the th th th th the th th th th th th th th the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the thi to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the they. their their their their their their their their th. th. thi. thi. thi. their the. their the. their the the the. the. the. the. thi thi thooo. thi thi thi thi thi thi they don't know you really, and if they're joking around and saying, oh you dumb idiot
to each other, you should jump in and say, you're a stupid moron and your parents didn't
love you.
Like if you'll maybe...
And by way, you made a, you made a factual error on episode 127.
Yeah, you should say something like that.
Yeah, if you can maybe know when you've added that. Yeah, that'd beto that being fixed up or whatever. Anyway, bye-bye.
Yeah, that would be tremendous.
Also with me is also persistent and impossible to dismiss.
His lingering memory of the weirdest porn I watched and enjoyed.
It's Lucy. Hi, Lucy.
How are you?
How are you?
You close the window really quickly.
But you remember that you watched it.
I know that you watched it. I know that I watched it. And I can't lie to myself.
I can't be like, well you saw that and then turn it off. You watched the whole thing.
Yeah, you watched it. You enjoyed it and then, you know, you were enjoying your safe by the lake.
And then you remember the instances of pain in your life. And we had poured that you watched and enjoyed. Yeah. I just don't th th th th th th th th th th that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th. that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. their their took. took. took. I took. I took. I took. I took. I took. I took. I took. th. that you watched and enjoyed. Yeah. Yeah.
I just don't think about it.
And just as an example, you know.
Yeah, and let's all, we'll say it, well, on count of three, we'll all say the weirdest thing
that we've watched and enjoyed.
Yeah, three, two, one.
Hmm, that's a sort of cut out there was a the signal might have gone dry. Yeah it all cut down we all said it though. We did yeah it would be nice maybe to be like one of those people you
like the insane people whose enjoyment of porn is super out loud like they're
mostly internet men largely and like obviously a lot of people watch it
enjoy porn I don't never seen any but I understand that it's
exploring sexuality definitely a healthy part of being alive, but then you have guys who's like,
their public Twitter is being like, well, went out to brunch with my wife this morning, it was
amazing and the next post will be, wow, incredible video video of three holes getting stuffed.
Yeah, let me worship at your feet, madame. Yeah, Are you like, I think it must be amazing to know what you're into and be so comfortable with
it so much that you're just like, yeah, love this stuff.
But at the same time, I think there's a healthy amount of shame to have.
I think you should have shame about, you should shut that browser straight away.
And then, just pretend you didn't. I was watching The Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking the Walking I was watching The Walking Dead. I wasn't looking at its net pornography.
I wasn't watching Overwatch pornography. There's a lot of that that comes up in the search recommendations.
It's all in the ads. It's weird. I don't want to say that. Don't show me a cartoon,
overwatch character having sex. I never want to see that in my life.
And I don't know if this is given something away about mine's net footprint but the things you get in banner ads, very perplexing. Yeah. They're
very puzzling but I never want to post them because someone will be like, oh it's
really based on your search history. Having a hank where you're just watching.
Wait so your concern is not the people will immediately be like, hey wait a second. to you were jacking off two minutes of. It's two two two two two two two two two two. the to you the their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're'll say that it's because of my... It's not, it's not, they're random.
They're random.
There's nothing about what I've been looking for that means that
there's like a weird CGI porn game being recommended to me.
Well, it's probably because I'm a man of my age bracket.
Yeah. Who knows? Hey, porn, that's a thing that makes you go, hmm.
It's time for, and you might, if you've been listed this podcast for a while, I think
that was a segue into the segment that has that in the name, but it's not, it's time
for, hmm, watch.
Sorry, what was that going to be there?
I couldn't think of where to put this story and I don't even think it should be in here.
We shouldn't be doing this and I apologize in advance.
This is from CBC, Canadian broadcast Canada.
Man in his 40s, dead after ATV crash in South Dildo.
Fuck off.
Fuck off.
Really feels like some of those words got kind of dropped in there just sort of parachuted
in to that sentence. Unbidden. Possibly where the name of a town should have been?
Yeah. The RCMP is investigating a fatal ATV crash on Route 80 in South Dildo. Possibly where the name of a town should have been?
The RCMP is investigating a fatal ATV crash on Route 80 and South Dildo.
In the media release, the police force said the crash was reported Monday morning.
Man in his 40s was found dead underneath an ATV in a ditch in the community.
Do you have one of those very funny browser extensions installed the changes a word for another word
that changes the names of regular yeah Newfoundland yeah this is like
South Brunswick or something and you've got the Brunswick to Dildo extension
I hate to sound like I'm doing one of those joke format tweets but the existence of South Dildo it applies the existence of the rest of Dildo yeah and I was like well what if this is a one off this is a one one th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th the one th th the one th the th th the one the th th th the th th the th th th th th th. the the thu the the the the the thu thu thu th. th.

Dildo. Yeah. And I was like, well, what if this is a one-off, but no, no, Dildo? Dildo, Dildo is the place.
I don't know why south. Where do you measure? Where do you start measuring the Dildo? Is it from?
South Dildo? It's just the south part of Dildo, thildo, thildo, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, thi, thi, thi, what thi, what thi, what thi, what if th, what if th, what if th, what if th, what if th, what th, what th, what th, what th, what th, what th, what th, what th, what th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. What thi. What's thi. What's thi. What if thi. What if thii. What, what thi. What if thi, what thi, what ildo is what you're saying. It's not a separate town. Yes, that's right. Dildo is a local service district and designated place in
the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Yeah. It is located on the
southeastern Dildo arm of Trinity Bay. Come on. No. It's not real. I think they're like, they're fucking with us.
The town's, uh, sorry, South Dildo is a neighboring community of 200 residents.
Yeah. Also, their local service district committee chair is named Greg Pretty.
That lovely name.
Dildo. Um, you want to know something fun though?
Yes. The place name Dildo is tested in this area since at least 1711, though how this came
to be is unknown. The origin of the word Dildo itself is obscure. It was once used to reference a
fallus shaped pin stuck in the edging of a rowboat to act as a pivot for the oar. Really? It also known as a the the the the th th th th th thil thil to know to know to know thil to know to know thil thil to know thil thil thil thil thi to know thi to know to know to know to know to know to know thil thil thi something thi thil thil thil th th th th th thu something something something something something something thil thil thil thil thil thil thil thu thi thu thu thu thu th thu th th th th thu thu th. th. thi th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thu thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. the edging of a rowboat to act as a pivot for the oar.
Really?
It's a thole pin or dull pin.
That's fascinating.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's where that word comes from.
Yeah, I guess so.
But did they have them back then?
Oh, they've had them for ages. But did you just use like a vegetable-lestone ones? th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. the. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi.

right there's like fucked up old ones huh yeah like those weird Roman ones
where you like wow you'd hate to be the first 100 people to use this thing
you really got the got the finish on it the name was first written as Dildo
with an E at the end okay yeah now this probably isn't funny at all if you're Canadian or possibly even American.
You've probably heard of this place which means this is just a story about a 40-year-old
man dying in an ATV crash.
Yeah, you've probably gone through the whole gamut of emotions regarding there being a place
called Dildo.
Yeah, this is like if you're German and we did a story
about a guy dying in an ATV in fucking or whatever it's called wherever that is.
There's a there's a train stop in Belgium I think called Kunstwet.
Not Australia there's nothing funny. No. We don't have any funny town then.
Art Wirt.
Sorry, I forgot that fucking changed its name two years ago.
Oh.
So the town of Fouking in Upper Austria is now Fogging with 3Ds.
So you can say it on Tick Tock.
It's so that people... Yeah, exactly.
That's a weird thing.
Ah yeah, so people stop stealing their sign mostly, I think.
You can't swear on Tick Tock.
You can't say sex. People always write segs.
Or I was having saxophone with my boyfriend.
I made that one up.
But that's an example of the sort of thing they might do, which is just as true.
Yep.
Yeah. This is just a timely reminder don't get on an ATV. That is the official stance of the podcast.
Oh yeah. You can get all one of those things that's an ATV but has a rigid top on it. Get on one of those.
You need a roll cage. Yeah, I rolled an ATV once and nearly killed George and I in one fell swoop. And now I am staunchly anti-ATV.
And you know what you're doing on those.
Well it was my first day ever riding one, but the guy that we were following was going really fast.
Yeah. So, yeah. Stay off ATVs.
Don't do it. Seeing a middle-aged man on an ATV, that's probably a sign that's something bad is about
to happen.
It's time for Oman's importance.
You shall see hail fall from a clear sky and burn his fire upon the ground.
You shall see darkness cover Egypt when the sun climbs high to noon.
And you shall know that God is God.
And bow down to his will.
This comes to us from WFLA in Florida.
Giant seaweed blob twice the width of the US takes aim at Florida.
Pardon?
You heard me.
That's very ominous. Twice the width of the US did you say? Yeah,
and I believe the US is one and a half as wide again as Australia for memory. So that's three
Australia's. Three Australia's. I think that's too much seaweed. I agree. I agree. You know when you go in the
ocean and some seaweed touches you and like you wish that you were dead. Yeah. Now imagine it was like most of the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the US the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US US US US US US US US US US US US US US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the US. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. the th. the the th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. know when you go in the ocean and some seaweed touches you and like you wish that you were dead?
Yeah. Now imagine it was like most of the size of a continent. Imagine if it could envelop you.
Yeah. Just squash you. So squash you like really really tied around your head.
Yeah. And you couldn't even move. Yeah. What if you couldn't breathe?
I hate to talk about stuff that happened on Twitter because that's very, you know,
I don't do that anymore.
But did you, Jordan Peterson, he tweeted the fetish video of the guy strapped to
bits with the dick jack-off machines.
What?
What was it?
So he quote tweeted an account saying, in China, they've got sperm extraction machines.
There are they...
Have you not seen the video Lucy?
And was it porn of like a jacking machine?
There was like two guys strapped beds like BDSM, porn style.
Were they Chinese?
But the room looks like it was from Jacob's leather.
Um, and it had the Matrix filter over top of it.
Oh my God.
It was like green.
It was a green, like corn music video tint.
But it had Dick jacked off machines in it.
And you could see the Dick's being jacked off.
He tweeted like, well this is what they're doing over in China and then quietly deleted
it without the he'd done.
And the account that posted originally, a little example was like, wait, nope, not from
China, it's from the UK.
Yeah, and they found the video as well and the, etc.
It's so, I can't even put my finger on the feeling that it invokes in me.
Because this is a, is it intriguing to you?
This is a video that I would not expect to come up anywhere at any time forever.
Yeah, unless Cal's posting it in the Discord.
Yeah, absolutely, which is how I know of the video.
Have you guys ever watched the video where Blippy does diarrhea on another man?
No, I haven't.
And every time you tell me who blippy is, I forget.
And I refuse to hold that information.
The blip is for children.
It can only be one thing in my life right now, okay?
And it can't be the other thing.
Have you got blippy in your life?
I mean, yeah, it comes up in like kids. and stuff. We're blippy positive at the moment and I haven't seen the video by
the way I just ask me have mixed reviews. You asked that question the way that
suggests that you had. I'm just curious. I'm pretty sure it was Mike Isaac
friend of the show who told me to never watch it. Okay and then ex-husband of the show Jesse
told me that I have to watch it.
Or who are you gonna believe? The dual the dual the dualality? I I I I the dual the dual the dual. I the the th. I th. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. Tech. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's to. It's to to to to to be to be th. It's to to to to to to to to to to to to to. Oh who are you going to believe? The duality of man.
I don't know.
Tech reporter versus marine biologist, husband versus not.
I think I'm good though.
I don't know if I need to have that in my brain.
No, I'm probably fine without diarrhea video of any kind at this stage.
Unless it's like one of those ones where it's like a one of the monkeys at the zoo just doing crazy diarrhea while a bunch
of horrified family so like I don't think my son's allowed to see this. Now
that's just a feel-good time. Yeah. Hey if you don't want to see diarrhea
stay away from the zoo. Yeah can't take the heat. Get out of the zoo. Get out of the zoo. Marine scientists are tracking a 5,000 mile wide seaweed bloom
that is so large it can be seen from space.
Marine scientists are tracking gives me the image of like a bunch of
lab coat guys in like a Norad bunker somewhere being like, my God.
It's moving.
Dung.
These sargassum blooms are nothing new, but scientists say this one could be the largest in
history.
At last check, it was heading toward Florida's Gulf Coast.
The thick mat of algae drifts between the Atlantic coast of Africa and the Gulf of
Mexico providing habitat for marine life and absorbing carbon dioxide. Thank you, Queen.
Maybe they're going over there to get down with that old clam.
Yeah, from the last episode, from the bonus episode,
Theo almost made a really good joke about a clam.
Yeah?
I thought about it.
It didn't joke about it.
And then laughed for four or five minutes.
Sign up to the Patriot if you'd like to hear him not make that joke there either. But it can also wreak havoc when it goes close to shore. It blocks light from reaching
coral and negatively impacts air and water quality as it decomposes. Florida's Gulf Coast
is already grappling with an algae bloom amid the busy spring break tourism season.
Red tide has caused dead fish to wash ashore in droves, while the risk of respiratory irritation for humans has cancelled events and driven and the the the the the the the the the the the to the to to to to to the to the to to to the to the th to to the the the to the to to to the to to to the to the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the to the.........

irritation for humans has cancelled events and driven beachgoers away. These are two separate
things they're talking about. Yeah. There's a lot of bad stuff happening. They have the
giant continent-sized algae bloom, but they also have the red tide that is killing fish
and poisoning people's eyes. And poisoning humans. Yeah.
Fish that feels like they're getting some sort of spiritual,
carmic sea event.
Yeah, that's carmic.
They deserved it.
Yeah, fuck you.
I agree.
Fish can fuck off.
And also the fish.
Oh, you meant the Florida people.
I meant the fish.
Well, both are suffering.
With a blanket of sargassum approaching, spanning twice the width of the continental US, scientists warn
that Florida beaches could soon be inundated with seaweed. Quote, it's incredible,
Brian Lapoint, a research professor at Florida Atlantic University's
Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute. Too many.
Mp.P.C. N.P.trim that down. Foul, foul boy.
Faw boy.
Faw boy. How about FAU's HBO Institute? There you go. Now we're talking. Quote, what we're
seeing in the satellite imagery does not bode well for a clean beach year or for mankind.
Probably, yeah. I'm not really worried about the clean beach, probably.
LaPoint, who has studied the blooms for decades, said beaches in the Florida Keys are
already being affected.
Earlier this week, parts of Mexico were to prepare for up to three feet of sargassum
to build up on shore.
Chunks of brown plant matter may be unappealing to look at, but the impact on humans does not
end there.
It's not just ugly.
It's not just ugly.
And some other stuff.
Yeah.
It will make your beaches fugly, but also it'll make you sick.
Large pieces of sargassum can ensnare boats and other machinery in the water.
Yeah.
Yeah. Quote, even if it's just out in coastal waters, it can can th. It can th. It can th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their. And, their, their. And, their. And, theirn. And, theirn. thi. thi. the. the. theat, theat, theat, theats, theats, theats, theats, theat, theat, theat, the. the. And, th Quote, even if it's just out in coastal waters, it can block intake valves for things
like power plants or desalination plants.
Mariners can get completely inundated and boats can't navigate through, Brian Barnes, an
assistant research professor at the University of South Florida's College of Marine
Science told NBC News.
But what's the downside?
Yeah.
Quote, it can really threaten critical infrastructure.
Running Sagasm releases hydrogen sulfide, which can cause respiratory problems for tourists.
Yes.
Sorry, rest of tourist residents and anyone who works on the water.
Yeah, people.
The three biggest groups of people.
Everyone in life is either a tourist or resident or someone who works on the water.
Look to your left.
That's your three.
So true.
I'm a resident.
Yeah.
I consider myself someone who works on the water.
Yeah.
And Lucy is the tourist.
Lucy.
There you go.
You're a day walker.
Mm-hmm.
Quote, following the big 2018 blooms, doctors in Martinique and Guadalupe reported thousands
of people going to clinics with breathing complications from the air that was coming off these
rotting piles of sargassum.
The point said,
That isn't good.
This all sounds very bad.
Barnes and his colleagues at USF's optical oceanography laboratory track sargassum blooms.
The blanket of seaweed appears to be growing each year, but 2018 and 2022 had the largest blooms he said. This year could top last year's
record. Quote, historically as far back as we have records, sargassum has been a
part of the ecosystem, but the scale now is just so much bigger, Barnes told
NBC News. What we would have thought was a major bloom five years tho thi thiiii. expanding, like we're going to be taken over by seaweeds.
This is the first I'm hearing in this.
That's the thing, right?
Like once, as the ocean starts warming up, the whole sea is just going to be like algae
seaweed and jellyfish.
Right.
It's going to be a shangthree and then those worms that live on the like
the geothermal vents. Oh yeah. They don't get their energy from any other source.
So it's probably just those guys I think. And like 300 year old groupers. Yeah, just the big wise fish.
Scientists have found that climate change is causing ocean temperatures to rise.
First I'm hearing about it, creating a more ideal environment for the algae to thrive. Meanwhile, urban and agriculture runoff
is sending nitrates from fertilizers
and other nutrients flowing into the ocean, feeding the bloom.
That's a fucked up combination.
Oh, no.
We're like helping the algae on two fronts.
The thing about that is that I don't want to think about that. No. I find that inconvenient that we're doing that. It makes me feel bad.
You know if we were doing just one of them I'd be like well yeah that'll happen.
But given it super food we're making it nice and cozy. Yeah, hey,
stop feeding the algae. It's not going to be able to find any food on its own, or lose the ability to hunt, become dependent
on us.
Be like one of those cats where people have to put up things saying don't feed him.
You get to good meal at home that he'd still begs.
Do not feed this algae.
The algae has been fed.
Yeah, he's getting chonky. He's becoming a chonker. Yeah, this algal super bloom is a thuu, thu, thu, thu, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the thum, thum, thi, thu, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi's thi's thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii' thi' thi, thi,onky boy. Hecken chonker. Yeah, this
algal super bloom is a heckin chonker. Yeah. And also all of the fish are dead.
Maybe we could get like a discount on a group tripanning? Probably. Yeah. We could probably just buy like one really good
whole saw a bit. Yeah, or a bit of, bit of shale or something. Yeah, we'll probably just buy like one really good Wholesaw bit. Yeah, or a bit of shale or something.
Yeah, we'll figure it out.
That's probably going to cause some problems for us, but also, furthermore, nature.
It's time the place.
I belong, Bulton Hissar, Nation corner, rubber crab, sniffed my dick.
This comes to us from the...
This is a press release from the University of Birmingham,
as I think they say over there.
Dizzy apes provide clues on apes. That's right. Great apes deliberately spin themselves in order
to make themselves dizzy academics at the University of Warwick at the University of Birmingham
have discovered. That's so good. Yeah, fuck yes.
That's just like doing drugs according to some nerds. Yeah.
The findings could provide clues about the role of altered mental states for origins of the human mind.
Do you think so?
Yeah, that's spinning ape.
That's how we got here.
It's like the modeleth from 2001 dropping down and they all just start spitting and going,
whoa, whoa!
Dr. Adriano Lamira, associate professor of psychology at the University of Warwick, who
co-led the study, said, quote, every culture has found a way of evading reality through
dedicated and special rituals, practices, or ceremonies.
Evading reality.
Who could say why we want to do that?
It's a mystery.
Maybe it's because drugs rule?
Hmm? This human trait of seeking altered states is so universal, historically and cucial, the study? It's a mystery. Maybe it's because drugs rule.
This human trait of seeking altered states is so universal, historically and culturally,
that it raises the intriguing possibility that this is something that has been potentially
inherited from our evolutionary ancestors.
Yep, the chimps before us also loved acid.
Also thought it was fun to spin around a little bit.
Yeah, go for a little spin.
If this was indeed the case, it would carry huge consequences on how we think about modern
human cognition capacities and emotional needs.
I don't think that would actually.
Yeah, I need to spin.
I don't think it would change my thinking at all regarding those things.
The research team came across a viral video of a male gorilla spinning in a pool.
And as they continued researching YouTube, came across more videos of gorillas, chipadsies, bonobos and orangutans, all engaging in spinning behaviors.
What were the researchers doing initially? They were looking at YouTube videos.
Hey guys, check this out. I just typed funny ape into this website here and I've found some pretty important stuff. Hold on, hold it gets really good about three minutes. Just like, just wait.
He's preparing to spin. You can tell. Through analyzing over 40 online videos,
the research has found that on average the primates revolve 5.5 times per episode of spinning
with the average speed 1.5 revolutions per second, and the primates did this on average,, th, th, th, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, about, it, it's th, it's th, it's th, it's th, it gets really, it gets th, it's thi-it, it gets thi-it, it gets thi-it, it gets thi, it gets thi, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it's, it's, it's, it's th, it's th, it's th, it's th, it's th, it's thi-it, it's thi-i-tip gets really, it's thi-a, thi-a, thi-i-i-i-i-i-i-get's gets gets gets really thi's thi's thi-get's thi, gets gets gets really really thi, it gets gets really thi-it, it's the average speed 1.5 revolutions per second and the primates did this on average three times.
This all sounds very irrelevant.
Also, that's like a tiny data set.
You watched 40 YouTube videos?
Do you think maybe also people only uploaded the videos where like the apes span successfully?
Yeah. No no one's
like oh that guy did one half turn and put this on YouTube. So they didn't even
go and look at any apes. No I think this is a primarily YouTube based. Yeah.
They didn't even like put apes in an enclosure and give him like a little
spinny carous like they just watched some videos. They didn't pack funny little wizard pipes with some weed.
They didn't give apes any weed. They did not give a packs three to a gorilla and
then just sort of let him spin around a bit. Researchers compared great ape spinning speeds and
found that they can spin while holding on a rope as fast as professional human dances and
circus artists as well as dervish Muslims
who take part in whirling ceremonies to achieve a spiritual trance.
I didn't think they would be as good as the dervish Muslims, but I've been shown wrong.
This is the best study of all time.
I want to see the twirling monkey, like that sounds really fun actually.
Well there's at least 40 YouTube videos.
I don't think that's enough. I'm sure you could have found more than 40.
Dr. Limer explained, quote,
spinning alters our state of consciousness.
It messes up with our body, mind responsiveness and coordination,
which make us feel sick, light-headed and even elated, as is the case on children playing in merry-go-rounds,
spinner wheels and carousels. I don't. Yep, children do do. What's the different?
Yeah. Quote, what we wanted to try and understand through this study is where the spinning can be
studied as a primordial behaviour that human ancestors would have been able to autonomously engage in
and tap into other states of consciousness.
This woman is really overstating the profound bidealtering effects of being a bit dizzy.
Spinning around. I'm pretty sure our ancestors could have figured out that if you spin around in a circle it feels funny.
I figured that out as a child. Me too, like a small child.
Yeah. I can't even remember the first time I got dizzy it was that early.
If all great apes seek dizziness, then our ancestors are also highly likely to have done so.
Seeking, dizzy seeking behavior. Dizzy seeking behavior. If all great apes seek dizziness feels like a,
there's something in that sentence that sounds like it's meant to be a nemonic for something, and I don't know what that is. All great apes seek dizziness. All great apes
seek dizziness. In many of the videos, the primates were using ropes or vines to spin, and it was in
these videos where they were spinning the fastest and for the longest amounts of time.
The research team analyzed the videos and compared to videos of purposeful human
pirouettes. For example, ballet dancing, traditional hopak dancing, whirling dervishes and
aerial silks performances. The team then self-experimented spinning at these speeds and times and
found it difficult to achieve the third bout of spins at these speeds as great apes did.
So they got up from the desk, they said that's it, enough of this YouTube, we're getting into real hard sides here. They span and then on the third spin we're like,
whoop! Hey! I'm dizzy. This is hard. The apes can do it. Am I better at spinning than a gorilla?
Apes were noticeably dizzy at that point in the videos,
and they were likely to lose their balance and fall down.
Yeah.
That's just comedy.
Quote, this would indicate that the primates deliberately feel the effects of dizziness, until they are unable to keep their balance any longer, explained Dr. Marcus Perlman.
What have they got to do?
Yeah.
Yeah, they don't have a lot going on.
Yeah, I guess it's just like eat, shit, throw shit at toddlers behind glass, spin.
Do diary to tool.
You know how it feels when you like you spin three times,
then you listen to the lateralis? Yeah, what if you got monkeys to spin and listen to tool and
watch the movements on Windows media player? That'd be crazy. If you could get gorillas to spin
three times and then watch the Wizard of Oz while listening to the dark side of the moon at the same time? And measure their their their en en en en en en en e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e ea their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their tho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o------------------------------o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-up.-up.-up.-up.-up-up-up-up-up-upe-upe-upe-upe-upe-upe-upeo-upe.-upe.-s.-s. tho-s. tho-s. tho-s. too-s. too-s. too-s-s-so-so-so-so-yyo-yo-so-yo-yo-yo-yo-o-yo-o-s. th-s. th- while listening to the dark side of the moon at the same time. And measure their enjoyment versus a control group of non-spinning monkeys.
Holy fuck.
You got yourself a study.
I got a hypothesis there already.
I think I know how the data's gonna go.
These chimps just like clapping when things sink up.
When he said money the first time there was money on screen in the song money. It's fucking the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu fu. the first the first first the first the first the first th money th money th money th money th. th. thi. th. th. to to th. to to thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. tho. the first their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. thi. thi. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tipe. It's fucking crazy. Sign to say that further research is needed to understand
primates motivations for engaging these behaviors, sorry, engaging in these behaviors,
to understand why our own ancestors might also have been driven to seek out these spinning
and mind-altering experiences. I don't think further research is required.
I don't think it deserves that word.
I think you nailed it.
I think you got it.
You got it.
They think it's funny to be dizzy.
Yeah.
Fun and funny.
The paper, quote, great apes reach momentary altered mental states by spinning is published
in primates.
Cool.
That sounds like a great fucking journal.
Yeah, it sounds great.
If that's all ape research, I feel like we actually...
We should subscribe.
We should subscribe to that.
I feel like we'll probably get a lot of good monkey content there. Podcasts. They're nature's greatest natural resource and it's important that they're harvested
sustainably.
Editing, production, fart sound effects.
These are all important resources from our local ecosystems.

It's impossible to know what's actually going through their minds as they do these spins,
our ape ancestors. Much the same, it's impossible to know what's going going through their minds as they do these spins, our ancestors, much the same as it's impossible to know what's going through the minds
of Dutch people.
But we still do try our best to understand them in the segment that about half the
time we call Netherlands Corner.
Tell me, I'm from Holland.
Isn't that the air? Very weird.
This is from Dutch News.N.L.
Badger Tunnels under the tracks Stop Train Service in Friesland.
Badgers, the Badgers Tunnel.
Yeah, badges are, based on my understanding of the live-action
Wind of the Willows movie that has all the Monty Python guys in it, I think Badgers tunnel. Yeah, badges are, based on my understanding of the live-action wind of the Willows movie
that has all the Monty Python guys in it, I think Badgers Tunnel.
I thought they, I think their whole deal was just like chewing on trees.
You think it a beavers.
You think of beavers.
I think you might beavers. I should have been thinking badges like the internet video. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And if you're under 30,
Badgers have halted train services between two Friesian towns by borrowing underneath the rails and making them unstable.
Rail infrastructure manager pro-rail has said,
The Badger set, set with two T's, which I think is a clan of badgers, I think perhaps
a troop of badgers near Molk'erun, consists of a network of tunnels with dozens of entrances
which may collapse under the weight of a passing train pro-rail set.
The track manager had been aware of badger activity at Molokai room and carried out repair work earlier because past the track had collapsed. Little dots start showing up on their motion trackers.
Oh my god, they're underneath us. You gotta shoot those badges. Yeah, you do have to.
Yeah, sadly, they're doing domestic terrorism. Yeah, you can sort of see them as an equal. You know
you as a person that creates train infrastructure,
they are sort of your dark, twisted reflection. They are your Moriarty as a hyper-intelligent
Badger Klan that is destroying train infrastructure. If they had a Desert Eagle, they would kill you with it.
They would. If they were jewel-wielding a blunderbuss, they could destroy you.
If they were Magnum, akimbo, they had, yeah, whatever. If they had guns, they would take you out. Although they respect you as well.
It's just sort of like a, you have to oppose each other. You're opposite furies, opposite energies.
Yeah. Dutch, train men, badger. Like the guys each other. You're opposite furies, opposite energies. Yeah. With a respect like the guys from heat.
Yes, exactly. You would sit down and you would have a coffee with a badger at Dutch Dunkin' Donuts.
Yeah. The badger would look across at you and the table and he'd say, don't know what else I do, I'm not going to stop digging those tunnels and you the trade men would say I'm not going to stop
building train train train trade tracks. They should destroy a highway or something you know
Yeah, take out cars. Yeah, that's a fucking great idea. That's what I don't like about this. Bad target. Yeah.
Yeah. Leave buses and trains alone. Cars? I like driving. I like having a car, but you know, they got to go.
Consider it. Badges are a protected species and stay mainly in their set in winter.
Pro Rail had been in talks with the council about measures to evict the badges.
That doesn't sound so nice now. And lure them to an artificial home nearby, but that has not happened so far.
Train services between Urkum and Steveren have been replaced by a bus service until further notice.
Ralph, you're going to get that rail replacement bus. That shit sucks.
Oh, it's never good. You never have a good time on a rail replacement bus.
That's one of life's like absolute hellish experiences.
Like that's the pits. Rocking up to the train station perfectly on time
for what should be the train you were going to get
and seeing the rail replacement bus sign.
Holy fuck, man.
That's just a depth of sadness.
Just turn around and go home.
Yeah, because otherwise you're adding 20 minutes to your trip time.
Doesn't matter how many stops you're going. You will also for whatever reason, even though you were traveling with the same people you would have been traveling with on the
train, they're worse. They're somehow worse. Yeah. Like, the mentally unstable person who wouldn't
have engaged in a conversation with you on the train, they're going to engage in that conversation with you on the rail bus. That's right. They're going they're going they're going th th th th th th th. They're going th. They're going their th. They're going their th. They're going th. They're going their th. They're going th.

they'll give you one. Yeah, it's a Michael. They're gonna tell you about your aura.
Yeah is Michael and Angel. Sure. And then film film Michael. Yeah, that's that movie where John Travolt is the angel right. Yeah that's it. Yeah, that's it's like oh.

Yeah, that's it.
Yeah, it was like a whole slew of movies around there
where people were either like angels or helpful ghosts or whatever.
Yeah.
Like, K-Pax. Yeah.
It turns out, he's a sex grape. Another story from Dutch News.N.L.
Water artwork not interactive, Utrecht Council warns, brackets 13 times.
Oh shit.
Don't you tell me what I can or cannot interact with.
A little pop-up coming up like an oblivion say, like the course of fate has been altered
because you interacted with this.
People who cannot tell their art from their elbow only have themselves to blame artist
Karen Darn.
Yeah, it's pretty stupid mistake to make.
Yeah, I can tell art from my elbow.
My elbow is attached to me.
This is like when they tell you, when you go into that exhibit in Mona that's just like,
um, it's like a walkway through like several meters of stinky motor oil.
Yeah.
And they tell you not to take, take your hands and sort of cup them together and scoop into your mouth.
Like don't touch the motor oil.
Yeah, why do you put it there? Yeah.

Yeah. With the poop machine, yeah. I'm going to rank this as a fourth-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a Mona if you'd want to do one thing in Tasmania. Yeah, I did. I did.
I did do two things. Do the rest of Tasmania as well. Yeah, lovely place.

Utrecht local council is putting up 13 warning signs around her deceptive water feature,
which keeps attracting pedestrians, the AD reported.
The artwork in question called H'et verzonkin ship, the sunken ship, consists of a body of
water which is occasionally covered in a type of duckweed that turns orangey in winter and green
in summer. Last week, a man who mistook the plants for gravel and wanted to make a quick crossing to the other side of the road came a cropper and had to be rescued by office workers from
a nearby firm.
You don't want to be rescued by office workers.
A group of office workers running out to rescue.
Oh, that's rough.
They're not their group.
I don't know if you've seen office workers move about, but they're not agile.
. but they're very awkward in the physical realm. It's not there. They're not people of action. Businessman running for the train.
It's abhorrent.
Awful.
Awful.
It was not the only casualty.
Earlier, two more people had to be fished out of the icy cold water.
Artist Karen Dunn is not sorry for the hapless victims. They can use their eyes, they'd tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. thea' theat sorry for the hapless victims. They can use their eyes, can't they?
She told the paper.
Yeah.
Sounds like they are using their eyes.
Yeah, and their eyes are telling them, you can walk across here, don't sweat it.
She's less than pleased about the council's intention to put up not one, but 13 warning signs.
More so because the work has been in place at ucliduslan 1, interesting, since 1993 without
any major mishaps.
Oh, never mind.
Maybe it is their fault.
Yeah.
People have done all of a sudden.
That's a long time.
They're probably on their phone zombies.
They have probably phone zombies.
They're probably on their damn phones.
They're looking at reels.
Are we controlling the phones? That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's thatchchcho-. That's thatheatheatheatheatheatheat's that's that's that's that's that on their scrolling tick-dock, they're looking at reels. Are we controlling the phones? The phones controlling us. That's such a
good question. Shit, I got so much to think about. Quote, I feel like a mother
towards my works. I need to protect them, the 78 own stupid fault if they think they could walk on it, she said.
Apart from warning signs, the council is contemplating fitting the work with fountains.
The office worker rescuers said they think a fence would be a better idea. I think it's crazy,
darned said. It reminds me of France.
She provides a specific example here. It I just, yeah, it's a very funny cultural reference
that I don't think we have over here.
The French are like really pedantic bureaucrats about stuff.
It reminds me of France, a drunk driver crashes into a tree and they remove the tree.
Okay.
Is that?
They should probably remove the drunk driver. I don't know if the tree. Okay. Is that...
They should probably remove the drunk driver.
I don't know if that's really relevant.
How about the...
Instead of removing your 200th tree,
you make your first law making drink driving illegal.
200,000 Frenchmen immediately go on strike.
Cars are flipped over within 10 minutes.
This is why they have personal freedom ready to show their beliefs. Truly beautiful country. I think
I think that's what the yellow jacket protests. It was over drink driving I think, yeah.
That was a weird one because I didn't follow it closely enough to really know what it was about,
except I think at the start it was something relatively good about changes in tax law and then immediately racist started using it for something.
And if you know more about it than us, you're honestly, you're wasting that time writing that email.
It's just... Just enjoy, just feel good about yourself. Feel good. For the first time today. So sorry, what's this, did this water feature have a name? Yeah, the sunken shipshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshsh Sh Sh Sh Sh Sh Sh She. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What, what. What, what? What, what? What, what? What, what? What, what? What, what? What, what?

Yeah the sunken ship but if you just google hit
for zonkin ship okay you should get a pretty good look at it like the photo I
saw with the stuff on it looks a shit load like gravel like it looks a crazy
amount like gravel yeah also if you just google the sunken shipwrecked like a lot of.
Also if you just google the sunken ship in Dutch it just shows you a lot of shipwrecks.
Like just a lot of shipwrecks.
I'm just saying some shipwrecks.
Yeah, that'll happen I guess.
Yeah, I feel like this is a, if it happens a bunch of times, that's probably not the
user error, that's design area.
Right, I think she's right in this instance.
Like you're looking like an idiot.
Better get rid of the work altogether because this makes a mockery of it.
Yeah, I guess a fence would really diminish the impact of that, that beautiful piece.
It really looks like it, like it's just concrete though.
Yeah, it does.
Like it really looks like it. The duckweed has since been hoovered out of the water,
but according to plant experts, chances are that it will return in full force in summer.
He's setting up your pit trap for businessmen, once again, as they do every year.
That's the theme of this week's episode.
Nature getting revenge on man.
And what if apes spad? What if we got crushed by sargassum? Yeah. What if there was
sargassum in Amsterdam or whatever? What if we got wiped out and apes were left here to spin to their own
desires? Imagine what a world. A chimpanzee face spinning forever. Imagine the face of a spinning
chimpanzee and he just smoked on some weed. Holy fuck. It'd be crazy dude. You imagine the world,
so we've all gone extinct. All the humans have killed each other or whatever. And then
a group of chimpanzees as they expand their
territory into the city, they come across their first trampoline hall.
Yeah, like a bounce or whatever the other one is. Yeah. Yeah. And they don't have to pay
entry because the humans are dead. They're dead.
Trampillines though, they don't need like any power or anything. They put on their little trampoline socks. Yeah, they put the socks on. They've got ham,
like they're gonna ham in there. They're doing shit you can't even imagine doing.
And then they're altering their minds by doing it. They are. That would be, yep, that's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy. You can, yeah, yep, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their. Yeah, their, their. Yeah, their, their. Yeah, their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their. You can imagine that on your own time. But there'd be nobody to report that news because all of the humans would be dead.
That's almost sounds like nothing to report.
It's the nothing to report report report report to report.
It's the nothing to report report report report.
It's the nothing to report report report report. What happened? Nothing to report, report, report, report, report, report, report, report, then nothing to report,
report.
What happened?
Nothing.
Shhh.
So you should mind your fucking business.
It's the...
Nothing to report, report, report, report.
Nothing to report, report, report.
Now I hate to speak ill of the dead. Now I hate to speak ill of the dead.
Now I hate to speak ill of the dead.
Andrew who has COVID for the second time which is why it's not good.
He got a good life, he had a full life.
He ate a lot of food.
Very good looking to men.
Good looking man.
What a problem.
Just in that theme, so there's the sort of silence part there to sort of go
with the nothing to report theme, but he's used a bit of ambient noise to highlight the sort
of the emptiness of the soundscape, which I guess usually in a movie or a cartoon would
be crickets. You know, it's usually crickets chirping because they're audible because no one's talking.
But he's gone with a sort of a wolf howl, which adds a spooky ambience to it.
It does.
It does.
It does.
It does.
It does.
It's kind of a thi.

It does.
theymeau.
. I guess we'll never know because you know it's been in my mind but I never ask you know I'm keeping that to myself what they mean when they say the death of the artist I don't
actually know what that means you died of COVID.
This is from press agency UPI DNA test proves rescued puppy in Texas is 100% dog.
Cool. When you said puppy I had to check. I was thinking dog. Yeah my first thought was dog. Yeah, my first thought was dog. Cool. When you said puppy, I had to check.
I was thinking dog.
Like my first thought was dog.
Yeah, that's like a...
Rescue puppy?
That's a dog.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Traditionally.
Yeah.
Animal rescuers in Texas said a suspected coyote named to be made available for adoption
after a DNA test confirmed she is a hundred percent dog baby. What are they going to do if it was a coyote?
And hit it with a brick?
Hit it with a hammer.
Yeah.
Probably, yeah.
They're not monsters.
I think they might have mentioned this in passing, not as a story.
But it teat thi too. But just as a little offside remarked, and a they, they, th. to, to, to, th. toe, th. toe, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. story, but it turns out this is just people brought in a dog and it was a dog.
And it's kind of nasty looking and they're going, is this even a dog?
This thing's so fucked up. I found this outside of my duplex because my downstairs neighbours don't keep their dog inside and he looks absolutely feral.
If you're in the discord, that joke should crush
with you right now. Dallas Animal Services said in February that a DNA test was ordered to
determine whether the puppy found next door to a dumpster by Dallas Police was a dog, coyote
or hybrid. Animal Services said in a Facebook post that a DNA test came back proving toaster's
100% domestic dog. The DNA test found toasters mix of German Shepherd, Siberian Husky and Australian cattle dog.
That's a strong mix.
Yeah, that's a great mix.
That's a smart dog.
Those are all smart breeds.
She's very cute, by the way.
She's just a little puppy.
Didn't even look a tiny bit like a coyote to me. I'm not saying I'm smarter than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than than that's that's that's that's that's that's th.

would assume that like first. I feel like coyote is like my last guess. Yeah.
Official said toast will be made available for adoption. Oh, that's nice.
Imagine getting toast. What a story you could tell. She's not a Coyote. Yeah.
So it's usually the same
story most dog owners have. Yeah. What if it was Moripovic and he was saying,
you are not a coyote? Yeah. That's something I think, yeah. Yeah.
Coyotes. Part of nature. Yeah. Yeah. Coyotes. Part of nature. Yeah.
We're going back to Nature Corner. I split these stories, and I don't know why th why., th. Yeah. th the th th th the th th th the th th the th th th the th th th the th th th the the th th the th Coyotes, part of nature.

This is from NBC News.
Ohio man nearly loses arm in zebra attack at farm.
Uh-oh.
Now I know what you're thinking.
Wow, that's crazy.
This guy was on a farm and then a wild zebra.
Yeah.
Just cruised on in there?
Yeah, just somehow got onto his farm and then attacked it.
He came on a boat. He swam here from Africa. That zebra went such a long way to nearly take this man's arm off.
Well, I mean, it must have been hungry.
Yeah, I guess so.
After the trip.
Yeah.
Long trip, yeah.
Yeah.
I just swam here from Africa, boy is my mouth hungry.
Yeah.
He flew jet star and he didn't get a meal included. Yes, yes, Lucy. He didn't
get a complimentary meal because he flew Jetstar. Yes. Yes. I don't think Jet Star flies
from Africa to America. Probably not. Plus, I had to weigh his baggage at the gate.
He had to leave his food behind. Yeah, 7.1 kilos, he had to take out his apples to get
back under weight. So it's under 7. Yeah, Ze's 7.1 kilos yet to take out his apples to get back underweight. His big bag of apples.
Yeah, I don't, they, Zebra's eat apples.
I don't know what they eat.
They're just horses.
Uh, Delta?
They're just horses.
What's their shittiest airline over there?
Spirit?
Spirit?
Yeah, we knowed it.
You are Buntavista's comedian of the week.
Oh my god, thank you, finally.
Congratulations.
Thank you so much.
An Ohio farm owner was hospitalized after one of his zebras, what?
Attacked him and nearly took his arm off, official said.
So usually a farm you associate with like food production.
Yeah, animals that are either cultivated for the products they produce from their teats or cloakers,
or because we harvest their meat by killing them.
Can you milk a zebra? Zebra milk is nearly 90% water.
And... The remaining 10% is ice cold zebra milk is nearly 90% water. And... useless.
The remaining 10% is ice cold zebra milk.
Okay, so if you have a hard time to digesting lactose from cowsmook, you may want to avoid
drinking monkey milk, what you're telling me now.
Fuck.
So that's Rhesus monkeys produce, where's the zebra part?
90% water? How much water is regular milk?
It's probably got some water in it, right? I thought it was 100% milk. Yeah, and the
milk lactose concentration is similar to that of milk from primates, around 7%.
I'm not drinking monkey milk. Maybe we're not so different after all.
They favor increased lactose synthesis and extremely dilute milks to prevent dehydration and infants
with high water turnover.
In primates, selection favoured the production of low-energy milks to support an extended
infancy period.
Hmm.
Low energy milk.
Yeah.
I do not like that as a phrase.
I don't like that at all.
This podcast sounds like we've been drinking a little bit too much of that low-energy milk.
That's what people say about us.
We're not one of those high-energy milk podcasts like Kill James Bond.
We're talking about.
Yeah, we're just hanging out.
Yeah, just fracking out.
Also one of our friends. Are the fourth or fifth, if your wife, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, th, th, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, tho, thi, thi, th. We, th. We, th. We, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. And, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, to-s. We're, to-s. And sometimes the sixth, if your wife is in the car.
And if you are, hey.
Hello.
How are you?
You look amazing.
I don't think you cut it, but you're wearing your hair differently and it looks, oh yeah,
it really suits you.
It really suits you.
their face, very nicely. So human milk and zebra milk, the same thiwa, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thiwa, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thoome, thoome, thi, thoome, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi. thi. thi. thi. Hey, thi. Hey, thi. thi. tho. tho. tho. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. thoa. Ha. thoa. Hey, tha. Ha. Hey, tha. Hey So they have, so human milk 88% water,
zebra milk 89%. Human milk 1.3% percent protein, zebra 1.6, 4% fat versus 2.2
so it's like skim milk. I got skim milk. They got skim milk. And 7.2. They're on that trum milk.
Put in my baby on zebra milk. When people say they've been drinking lean, they refer lean zebra milk. They're on that trum milk. Put my baby on it.
Zebra milk.
When people say they're for drinking lean,
they refer to zebra milk.
I assume most animals milk is similar to ours.
It doesn't mean I'm gonna be drinking it.
Yeah.
I only drink the normal ones.
Yeah, I believe the opposite of both the statements that you made, Lucy.
I believe they're extremely different and I'm very invested in finding and drinking all of them.
Sup on every milk.
I will have the milk of a rhinoceros.
I will have the milk of the badger.
Deputies with the pickaway county sheriff's office found a 72-year-old victim on the ground when they responded to a call about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they their their their their their their their the Kickaway County Sheriff's Office found a 72-year-old victim on the ground
when they responded to a call about an animal bite around 5.30 p.m. Sunday in Circleville,
about 30 miles south of Columbus.
Yeah, what if they drove there on the ring road?
Yeah, I doubt it. Probably like a rural highway.
I don't think it probably goes there. Why would they have a ring right out there? That would be... The owner had been burning brush when he turned his back and the zebra attacked him.
Never turn you back on a zebra.
No. Ever!
Can you learn that at school?
That's the first thing they teach you.
Don't walk up behind a horse without letting it know what you're doing.
Never turn you back on a zebra.
Don't have a horse front their the their their their their their their their their their their their their back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back their back their back their back their back their back their back their back their back their back their back to you, don't have your back to a zebra.
That is the rule.
If there's a horse front end zebra behind you, you've got to choose who looks buffer.
You've got a rabbit of lettuce and a fox and a zebra and a horse and a the zebra and a horse
and you've got to get across in a canoe.
Lieutenant Jonathan R Straza, with the Pickaway County Sheriff's Office, said.
He noted there were six to seven zebras in a fenced-in area on the property.
A responding officer positioned their cruiser in an attempt to block the zebras from
the victim, but a quote, very hostile, large male zebra charged the driver's side door of the vehicle according to the incident report. The officer scared away the zebras using the car's horn and sirens.
The victim was found with a hemorrhage to his right arm below the elbow and was taken
away by ambulance. As deputies were tending to the victim, an officer saw the male zebra
approaching EMS staff for the victim's family, the incident report said.
I'm getting all of you fuckers. Yeah, I'll come back for you.
He's John Wicking him. He is, he is John Wicking.
He's getting everyone in the organization. Yeah.
Except for like he sees Kevin Nash and he respects him. So he says, hey,
take the day off from the farm today. Yeah.
Because I'm going to town on everybody here.
And he says, thank you.
I'm Kevin Nash?
See the wrestler that's in?
I don't know.
I couldn't tell you.
Kevin Nash.
That's right.
Uh, the family authorized deputies to put down the animal after failed efforts to scare it away by yelling., the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, tho, toe, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, to put down the animal after failed efforts to scare it away by yelling.
An officer fatally shot it.
The incident report indicated that the zebra was quite aggressive, likely because it was
quote, protective of the other zebras, all females.
So it's an ally.
The victim was transported to Grant Hospital in Columbus and is recuperating.
Official said he has undergone a number of surgeries and will have several more.
Christ.
Some damage to his arm, but we believe they saved it.
So that's a positive thing because at first they thought that the zebra totally tore
it off, Strauss has said.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they would have just shot that that zebra for nothing. If they tell you that the zebra probably tore your arm off, but then you end up keeping the arm
that's like you've gained a third arm. Yeah, you gotta feel good about that. That's an arm you earned. That's a plus. That's a bonus arm.
Yeah, that's an arm for nothing. Straw said's attack was a, quote, freak thing.
I guess so.
I mean, no, it's not.
It's not.
Sounds like the name of a funk song.
He noted that the farm owner had the zebras for, quote,
quite some time.
And the sheriff's office had no history of the animals being aggressive.
He noted that it was not illegal for the man to own the Zebras. The Ohio Department of Agriculture says zebras are not considered dangerous wild
animals which are illegal to own. You'd be crazy to own an animal that was dangerous.
Ah, my arm. Why do you own zebras? Why do you need them?
You can't own a zebra, dude. That's so true. It comes from the ground, I think. That's nature. That's that's that's that's that's that's nature. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. that's that's that's the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. th.

You can't, you're not farming them.
Yeah, you don't need to have it on a farm.
Are you milk, is he milking them?
Is he milking them?
You, on that lean?
Yeah.
Are you on that zebra lean?
Is he supping on the teat of a zebra?
He probably bottles at first, but I mean, yeah.
Are you eating zebra meat?
Are you having a delicious zebra porter house?
Are you riding it? Can you ride them?
Oh, I don't think you should.
I can't think of a good reason why not?
It feels wrong.
It just feels wrong.
They're only a little bit smaller than a horse, right?
I think so. What's the problem? What's the problem?
Chuck a saddle on that battle. Morally it seems wrong.
That's the only argument I've got. I just don't think that like you can't call yourself a farm
if you have novelty animals for no reason. Now you remember the, I think we covered it when it happened. It was all over the news, but there was the the the the the the the the the the the their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the, the, the, the, the, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, th. th. th. that's, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, the, morally, morally, morally, the, morally, the, morally, the, morally, the, morally, morally, th.

It's, their, morally, morally, the, morally, the, the, morally, the, morally, the, morally, the, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, morally, the. thi, morally, morally, morally, the, morally, morally, all over the news, but there was that American guy that was killed in a completely
unforeseeable cassowary attack because he had casuaries that he kept on his quote unquote farm.
And then he fell over in front of one of them and it just like gored him to death.
Yeah, we always have these red flags.
It's like the Idaho hyena farm.
You're not farming.
He had them, like that it was legal for him to have them, is you're not allowed to have
them as pets.
But if you're using them for agricultural purposes, so he was like, oh no, I sell cassowary
eggs.
I'm cultivating them for cassowary eg-eigh.
No. You're not having a cassowary quiche.
That's a pet.
You should have to own up to what they're for.
You have a zebra house.
You live in zebra house.
You live in the zebra, the land of the zebra.
Yeah, you don't have a zebra house. Hmm. It should be illegal.
Like it should be.
That's fucked up.
Stop doing that.
Stop doing that.
Maybe he's learned his lesson.
Get a dog.
Yeah.
Have seven dogs.
Have seven rats.
You can have like a hundred rats.
You would never be lonely with a hundred rats.
I've been saying this. As they say.
I think that was technically an episode of the podcast. Buntavista, do you guys have anything to plug?
Uh, so I did it. What are you coming up? I did a thing? What are your projects?
I'm on a podcast. It's called, uh, Buntifista. We talk about Australian politics it's kind like it's kind of like a chapo trap house. We're sort of like an Australian
answer to chapo trap house. Yeah it's really fun like we're really we riff
yeah but we're not afraid to tackle the big issues either. We say it like it is.
yeah. Thea anything to plug? Yeah I like the there's this place that sells dried meat at Garden City.
Westfield up in Mount Gravide it's called. Yeah, not Garden City anymore. The times they are changing.
Yeah, anyway, check out they've got some of them, they got like terriackey beef there.
Yeah. Do you know what the place is called? No. Okay. Check out Mona. Yeah, check out Mona.
Just once.
Yeah, you have to go once.
Like it's so corny.
It's like a theme park for adults.
Yeah.
Also it is, I mean, the building is.
It's unbelievably cool.
It's very beautiful.
You stupid piece of shit.
You build a very cool like bond hideout.
Yeah. Make it so that there's a guy with a back tattoo that has to be on display 30 hours a week,
six months of a year. Yeah, do fucked up PT Barnum stuff. Stop holding your money. You need to make
something fucked up for me to look at. Something for me to look at between going to breweries. That's all I ask of you. I think we're announcing the start of, oh no,
Playperals next month. Don't worry about Playperl. Yeah. Don't even think about Playprol yet.
We shouldn't have said anything. Oh shit, I already talked about Playprol.
Forget we ever said the word Playpro. Put it out of your mind. Never think about
Playperal. Never think about playpurl. Play-Prol again, until Play-Prol. Hmm. Thanks for joining us.
Thank you.
Bye.
See you on the bonus episodes.
Maybe. you know the today
