Starting point is 00:00:00 Today's episode is brought to you by Quip. Quip is doing more than just brushing teeth. They now have gum, and we'll talk about that. Also, today we're brought to you by Kitty Poo Club. Do you have a kitty? Does it poo? Get in the club. Alright, now let's jump into this podcast.
Starting point is 00:00:17 Hello, everybody. It's time for Ghost on Trend Dog. This is Trend Dog in the morning. In the morning. Broadcasting live, live, live, live, live. Hello everybody and welcome to another exciting episode of Cakes, Grend excited for the next episode of Kex Grandad with the bowling. Uh, yay. Oh, jeez. Oh, oh boy.
Starting point is 00:00:56 I'm so excited to be here. That was you. That pretty much is my emotions right now. Oh, oh jeez. Forced to be here again. Golly gee. Do you remember the other night we were playing Warhammer? I do remember, yes.
Starting point is 00:01:14 I remember being the saltiest man who ever lived, yes. That was happening, and then I remember my nose just kept running, and I was like, I don't know if it's because I eat peanut butter. I sneezed like five times in a row, and then I was just really congested. Yeah, we have to set this up.
Starting point is 00:01:30 We have to set this up. So you and I were playing Warhammer on stream the other night, and you were like, I'm all stuffed up. I got stuffed up nose. And it all started after I ate a sandwich made of peanut butter, bananas, honey, and I guess wheat bread or something. Yeah, wheat bread. Well, here's the thing. It didn't actually start when I ate it. It started a little bit
Starting point is 00:01:53 before that. I was like, I started sneezing. Wait, so you were blaming that poor sandwich on this and it wasn't its fault at all? Well, I realized that after. So, I sneezed like five times in a row i'm like what the dingus and so you start sneezing and then i just was like so congested i kept blowing my nose like over and over and over well then the next day i wake up and then i just felt like bleh so i was like i probably got a cold or something you know i just kind of felt like
Starting point is 00:02:25 eh you know i wasn't too whatever i just kind of took a tylenol just kind of chilled out that day i played warhammer and then uh then i think that was was that two days ago yesterday yeah yesterday and then are you all right is it affecting your memory? What happened? My memory's already gone. Then I had the gastro where it's like, you feel it, you get the runs, it started hitting you, and you're like, oh boy. But it wasn't too bad, it only hit once. Wait, so what's happening to you? Hold on. Are you sick? What is going on? Yeah, I think I got something. But then I woke up today, I think I got something. But, uh,
Starting point is 00:03:06 then I woke up today and I feel a little better. So, you know, I'm still a little congested. My snot's become, like, super mucus-y thick. Apparently that's, like, signs you're... Yeah, but I'm not, like, congested anymore and I'm not sneezing, really.
Starting point is 00:03:22 So that's good. And then I still feel, like, a little achy, but not as achy as yesterday. So I'm not sneezing really. So that's good. And then I still feel like a little achy but not as achy as yesterday. So I'm just kind of... I guess some things never change. You feel a little achy but not as achy as yesterday. 2021. Oh my god, I've been pounding the water.
Starting point is 00:03:38 I'm drinking like so much water. I am on a find the best water slash sparkling water thing right now. So I've bought a bunch of different varieties. Right now I'm drinking a canned sparkling water called Liquid Death. It says murder your thirst from Austria. It's all right.
Starting point is 00:04:00 I definitely have realized that there is a flavor profile to cans. Does that make any sense? Yes. Like everything tastes different depending on what it's bottled, canned, et cetera. In. So for example, water in a can,
Starting point is 00:04:14 like a carton, you know how sometimes they box water and cartons. Yep. Tastes different. Water in a can tastes different. Water in a bottle. Plastic tastes different. Water in a glass bottle tastes different.
Starting point is 00:04:27 They all have different profiles. I think so far, water in a glass bottle, while more expensive, I kind of dig. I like that vibe, especially sparkling water because it tastes a lot more like crisp and refresh. You know, water from a can has a little tinny taste. I don't know if it's tin, but like a metallic taste to it. Oh, yeah. No, I agree with that.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Plastic, I think, is like the average, right? It's like the middle ground. And then everything else, like the water carton ones, the ones that keep trying to be like, we box this with recyclable whatever. It always tastes like I'm drinking box. It's weird. It doesn't taste right.
Starting point is 00:05:04 And everyone's like, bro, why don't you do the tap? You don't live in LA. Let me tell you. I'm not sure how much filtration I would need in order to feel comfortable with LA tap water. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, I definitely am on the process of going through and finding different things, especially since someone hit me. I don't know if I mentioned this last week, but it ruined me.
Starting point is 00:05:25 I hate when people do this. I hate when people give me information. It upsets me. I was talking about all these different waters I was drinking and what I'm trying to do and get super healthy. And I mentioned how I was drinking Topo Chico and how I love Topo Chico. And I got a message that was like, actually, Topo Chico is considered to be one of the worst and possible cancer-causing sparkling waters. I was like, actually, Tobochico is considered to be one of the worst and possible
Starting point is 00:05:45 cancer-causing sparkling waters. I was like, what? And then I read a whole article that was like, the process that they do in the factories, there might be some sort of residue from the machines that gets into the sparkling water that is slowly killing you. And I was like, why is
Starting point is 00:06:01 everything killing me? Oh, man. So now I'm worried about that. Of course, I was like, why is everything killing me? Oh, man. So now I'm worried about that. Of course, I was talking with someone last night who was like, bro, everything's gonna... Shut up. Don't worry about it. Like, literally everything... You don't even know. You don't even know. Just drink
Starting point is 00:06:18 what you're gonna drink. It's water. Those same machines are probably making the soda that you were drinking before. That was way worse for you So if anything you're doing better And I was like that's a positive spin on it I was like you're totally right The carbonation is still the same Probably the same damn machine types
Starting point is 00:06:33 So you know what you're right Alright So I had a moment of crisis But I'm back baby I'm back to drinking the water I want Well that's good Thanks but I'm back, baby. I'm back to drinking the water I want. Well, that's good. Thanks, thanks.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Your rant on water. Yeah. I was like, everything I enjoy, people get ruined for me. I don't know why. So I'm able to filter my water. I got the water filter, and then I also have a water bottle that has a filter in it, one of those. Oh. How often do you change that filter?
Starting point is 00:07:08 Like every two months. Alright. I mean I don't know how often you should change it. I'll let the internet judge you. Alright good. They already do. Thank you for sharing. How dare you. How dare you?
Starting point is 00:07:27 How dare you? Listen, all right, I'm over here chugging water, taking vitamin D6000 I use, and eating oranges. Oh, all right, yeah, because you're sick. I was like, why are you doing all that? Then I remembered you were sick. I was like, what a weird thing to be like, I'm taking all this vitamin C,
Starting point is 00:07:46 chugging water, I got oranges coming out my yin-yang, I got all sorts of crap happening over here. I was like, why? Vitamin C is actually, unless you're taking a billion units of it, doesn't really do much for cold and stuff. Alright, alright there.
Starting point is 00:08:02 Vitamin B, now that's the one most people are deficient in and it actually helps with not just like respiratory illnesses but just a lot of stuff vitamin D is the one that I I promised to give all my girlfriends and they don't get it and I'm like get it and they're like no that's
Starting point is 00:08:18 grow up Jesse and I'm like get it no but I even like a month and a half ago I went to a month and a half ago I went to the doctor I got my vitamin D tested And I was normal now Because normally I'd been pretty deficient in it
Starting point is 00:08:31 But now I've been taking like 2 to 4 thousand a day And it actually put me At normal levels In the winter time So that made me feel good And so now
Starting point is 00:08:41 That I've been sick I've been taking 6 thousand a day Especially considering your schedule Because you don't get a lot of sun time No, probably I mean, I still like going out good and so now that i've been sick i've been taking six thousand a day especially considering your schedule because you don't get a lot of sun time no probably i mean i still like going out in the sun like taking a walk especially when it's warmer outside but like sure but you do it late in the day like you don't get a full day's worth of sun yeah but usually when i go out it'd be like one or two p.m so i mean you're getting like Pretty prime time sun then I mean I guess you're right It's usually
Starting point is 00:09:07 You're getting the sun leaving though I mean the sun stays out until like 6pm Yeah I mean I don't You sound like you're missing the sun though You don't even know when it rises and sets I do the problem is that I have my office is right near
Starting point is 00:09:24 My window now. So the sun always gets my ass. And there's certain points during the day where I'm like, enough. Enough of this. It's too much sun. So yeah, I'm on the too much sun portion of this part of the conversation. Where I'm like, oh, sometimes my body, my white Irish ass is like, oh, my bones feel the sun rays. Interesting. Well, I mean, you don't want too much sun, too.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Also, I think you only get vitamin D at certain times of the day. That's what I'm saying. I don't know that... I'm going to have to look this up. When do you get the most vitamin D? Or vitamin, as the kids say. Vitamin.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Vitamin. All small vitamins. Oh, interesting. How to get safe vitamin D. Is morning sun good with vitamin D? So soaking in the morning sun is a good idea health-wise. However, midday sun, especially during the summer, is the best time to get sunlight. At noon, the sun is in the highest point and the UVB rays are the most intense.
Starting point is 00:10:41 So I guess when it's right above you, that's when you got to get that. Can you get sun after 4pm? Can you get vitamin D from sun after 4pm? As an example, someone who burns easily may only need 5 minutes of sun exposure. Oh. So I guess like the
Starting point is 00:10:57 amount of coloring in your skin also affects how much you'll need to stay out in the sun in order to get the exact same amount. So my white ass is going to be like, I walk out for a few minutes, it's like, I'm good. Others might have to take longer. All right, interesting.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Plus, you don't want to get in the sun too much. You got sunscreen, you don't want to get skin problems and all that. Yeah. You know. So I'm just happy so far you know this uh it feels like standard cold stuff i don't got like i don't got a fever i don't got coughing i don't got shortness of breath so those are the the three main things you're doing good yeah yeah i've already asked dr john i'm like dr john this is good and he's like you gotta stop worrying i was like okay so did you think that
Starting point is 00:11:45 you had covid is that what you were is that what we're getting at is you thought you were you you got the big c well that initially i was like oh no but i mean so far it just feels like cold i also read a bunch of stuff of people uh being like yeah uh colds and flus still around flus actually way down though but like Colds are still around. Normal colds. There's over 200 normal rhinovirus strains and stuff like that. Sure.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Can I tell you something crazy? It's probably going to blow your mind. I'm going to blow your mind right now. You want to know why flu is down right now? I'm just going to put it out there. It might shock you, Crandor. This is going to blow my mind. Because everyone is down right now. Just going to put it out there. This might shock you, Crandor. This is going to blow my mind.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Because everyone's wearing a mask. If you're wearing a mask, you're not going to transmit COVID and you're not going to transmit the flu. Crazy how that works. And even then, I've heard things with viral loads. I mean, even if you are spreading it, it's probably lower viral loads.
Starting point is 00:12:45 Maybe you get a less intensive case of it, which feels like. Less people are crammed together in places. Like, yeah, it's working with the flu, too. This is definitely not one of those shows where I'm like, and then what if we wear masks all the time? That's crazy. That's crazy. I would rather we get to a point where we never have to wear them again. That'd be lovely.
Starting point is 00:13:05 But, yeah, at least for now, another positive is that, hey, less flu, less general flu, which is great. Yeah. I also got my flu shot this year. It's to prime my immunity a bit, you know? I didn't do that. I probably something I'm over here like jealous of. that. I've probably something I I'm over here, like jealous of, I have a friend who went to go, uh, volunteer for a, uh, a testing site. And so she was there to like help the cars move through. Right. At the end of the day, they were like, Oh, well, since you're here, do you want a free
Starting point is 00:13:38 shot? I'm like, son of a, if only I was like kind enough to be like, well, I got a lot of work to do today, but I guess I'll go volunteer my time. I could have gotten my shot. Here I am, an idiot. As well as things where I was like, maybe I'll get pested, but if it keeps up for a few days and I'm not getting better than i'd probably get tested for you're fine right you're one of them dudes who like overreacts to everything i am one of those people that overreacts to everything that is very true you do you're the overreactor everything about you is an overreaction that's probably the best description i've ever heard of me it is true that is very true in fact uh you can just ask Dr.
Starting point is 00:14:26 John. If you're like, how many times has Krendor had a deadly disease? It's well over the amount you can count on your hands. Thank God Dr. John's not Lawyer John, because I feel like if you kept going to him, he'd be like, I can't give you legal advice. I simply
Starting point is 00:14:41 can't. I just can't do it. But it could be lymphoma. Could be. You're saying there's a chance. I mean, that's the worst part, is when doctors are like, well, you know, there's a percentage chance it's nothing, or
Starting point is 00:14:57 it could be much, much worse. You're like, why would you tell me that? Why would you say that? I'm just being honest. It's like, why would you tell me that? Why would you say that? I'm just being honest. It's like, you may have a mild cold or you may be dying of 10 diseases.
Starting point is 00:15:14 WebMD. That's why I don't use that site ever. Oh yeah, I haven't used WebMD in a long time. That site is dangerous. That's like, yeah, I have like a weird my neck is really tense. Well, you've got's like, it's dangerous. That's like, yeah, I have like a weird my neck is really tense. Well, you've got lymphoma, you're dying.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Oh, alright. Great. So yeah, that's been me. So I've literally just been playing Warhammer. Total War. I've played that like five hours a day the last two days. Damn, so you're just having like a chill time. You're having like a chill day.
Starting point is 00:15:48 That's not the case for me. So, I have the exact opposite. I've been walking on eggshells because I'm trying to figure out people's schedules in my new apartment complex. So, when I moved in, everything was fine. And, you know, I was just unpacking, doing my stuff, going to bed, you know, but now that I'm working again, I, uh, am in this room and I'm, you know, laughing or do whatever. And I realized at a certain point that my neighbor is, I guess her bed must be up against the wall that I'm literally talking to. So I think she can hear me. And at certain points in the night, depending if it's too late, she'll just like bang on the wall. And I'm like, oh, no.
Starting point is 00:16:34 So I was on a stream and I had to do it ASMR style. So out there is a clip of me streaming for, I don't know, three hours like, okay. This is what I'm gonna do. Admittedly, it was like, I don't know, 1am. So, I get it. I understand a loud asshole yelling at the wall. I understand. But also, I'm like, it's an
Starting point is 00:16:59 apartment complex. I've lived in apartment complexes for the last, I don't even know, like, 20 years almost. There's noise from your neighbors. It happens. If it's not like a constant like bang, bang, bang, bang, you know, then it's fine. My last apartment, my bed was right up against the wall and I could hear the neighbors next to me like doing whatever. And I wasn't like, I'm trying to sleep. I was like, I'll just close my eyes and go to bed. It wasn't like doing whatever and I wasn't like, I'm trying to sleep. I was like, I'll just close my eyes and go to bed. It wasn't like they were yelling at it. They were just alive. Right. I was the main thing. I have the comfort of knowing that my neighbors are like up at 3am watching TV, like good for them.
Starting point is 00:17:35 I don't know. I've always, I guess I like noise. I guess I like when I lived in the city, when I, you know, had my windows open at night, and it would be like, honk, honk. I love that. I love the white noise of life. Yeah. And I guess some people don't. Some people are like, I need silence.
Starting point is 00:17:57 So I don't know. I can't even. I always feel awkward. Like if I ever. What's the best way to put this? If I'm ever with a person, and it's the first time we've ever slept in a bed together, I always feel awkward because I know I'll not be able to get a good night's sleep, but I also don't want to turn on like a podcast or like some like calm or something like, you know, I don't want it to be weird.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Like, look, you're great. And I'm just going to like over now and turn on this pod. It's really awkward. And so I don't want to ever do that. But I also know if I don't have any sound, I'm going to lay there and just like, you know me. I'm not going to get in my head and be like, I'm going to think a million thoughts. I'll literally lay there in dead silence, zoned out, like staring at the ceiling or just like boy i wish i could go to bed oh yeah i can't i can't have silence and there's just like no noise except for the person
Starting point is 00:18:56 next to you and then it's just like i can't even stretch out on my whole fucking bed. I can't have silence. I can have silence during the day. I can have silence sitting alone. But when I'm going to sleep, I can't have silence. In a car, I don't even need music. I don't even want to talk to people in a car. Sometimes I'm just like, maybe I'll put on the radio and just be silent. My mom, I've said this before a million times, she'll talk and talk and talk and talk and talk.
Starting point is 00:19:29 And I'm just like, I have nothing to add to this conversation, but I have to talk to you or else it's rude. When I just don't want to. I'm just like, what if I sat here? If I'm a passenger in a car, 90% of the time I just want to sleep. That's like, I don't know why. I'm like, what if I just closed my eyes and didn't talk to people? And then, like, And then Every other time Silence is great I don't need things
Starting point is 00:19:50 At night when I'm trying to get to sleep For some reason I need like Even if It's the outside and During some seasons of the year here You can hear seals banging I'll like open the window and they're like I'm like Ah noise window and they're like, I'm like, ah,
Starting point is 00:20:06 noise. Yeah. I just have to have like a, like a quiet either distant or I don't know. It's just the idea that I spent a lot of time getting used to noise in the background. So now when there is no noise i'm like this i can't sleep it's weird it's weird it takes a while for me to get in the uh hey person i'm dating i'm gonna turn on this podcast the thing is is usually even after i like even after we break up they still listen to the shit that i was listening to which I feel pretty good about. I'm like, I must have good tastes in podcasts and apps and things like that. So I'm very proud. I'm very proud of that.
Starting point is 00:20:54 That's like the top quality taste you could have. That's true. Yeah. Absolutely. Who wouldn't want to listen to me ramble about getting I use a vitamin D and you ranting about Twitter? I mean, it is, uh, without a doubt,
Starting point is 00:21:07 one of our defining features of putting you to sleep. That's true. That's the other thing I've been getting. I've been getting my eight hours sleep. Although yesterday I only got seven and a half. I was woken up frequently last night by a dream that I don't, I think I, it goes back to my weird dreams where I have like reoccurring dreams. This one wasn't the crazy amusement park. This one was one where I think, honestly, you could convince me based on this dream that I had another past life.
Starting point is 00:21:42 Like it's a dream that I've had with a frequency That involves the exact same person It's an older woman Who is blonde I think she's like in her 50s But for some reason I just love her I am in love with her And the dream is literally us like I don't even know it's one of those things where you pop into it And pop out but I'll have it
Starting point is 00:21:58 Every once in a while it's like us like holding hands And that's it That's it and then I like wake up And I'm like interesting i don't i don't remember what we talk about i don't know what it is but i do know that it's the same person i recognize their face every time and i'm like super comforted by it and we just like sit there on a couch and like chill and then like i'll just wake up and it's one of those things you literally could convince me oh yeah that was a past life
Starting point is 00:22:25 But I don't Know what it means it's just weird It's a weird thing to It's the least weird of all My dreams but I think it's the strangest because It's so simple that I don't Know what it means you know most dreams are just like Ah that's
Starting point is 00:22:42 That was that symbol this And that meant this and the symbolism here was this this is like jesse sitting on a couch with like a slightly older blonde woman who is like very loving the end that's it there's nothing else to it i don't understand it but i had that dream the other night and i woke up and was like... The weird thing is I woke up like five or six times because of dreams. But that's the only one I can remember. But I had like one dream was like I saw a man, and his eyes were like wide open.
Starting point is 00:23:16 And he was like staring at me. And it was weird, but I don't remember what happened. And I just know that the man's eyes were huge, like comically anime huge, and he was looking at me. And I was weirded out, so I woke up. And then I had this dream, and I just woke up very content. Over the course of a night, I had four wacky dreams, and I woke up a bunch. It was crazy. I don't know what is going on with me.
Starting point is 00:23:40 In the last year, my dreams have gotten, it has to be COVID stuff. My dreams have gotten really intense to where I remember a lot of them. I'm not a big rememberer of dreams, but now I'm starting to remember a lot. Yeah, now you're on the Crandall train. Yeah, now I'm feeling it. I'm like, wow, what a weird dream that was. I've been having that too. I've had some crazy dreams. Well, I always have crazy dreams
Starting point is 00:24:05 but past couple ones been pretty crazy and then i remember this last one i woke up and i was like but i don't remember what it was ironically uh and then my head was just like i had like a headache but it was like a sinus headache you know how it's just like you feel it and like the front of your head and like a little bit in the sides and back. Just the sinus. I could tell it was my mucus. It was just really thick. When you get sick, your mucus thickens up. I genuinely hate when you go,
Starting point is 00:24:33 my mucus was really thick. I hate it. I hate it so much. For some reason, you in particular, my mucus was so thick. It's the worst. My thick mucus was so thick. I just... Like, uh... Because you're, like, asleep. It's the worst. My thick mucus. It, like, uh... Because you're, like...
Starting point is 00:24:50 You haven't had a lot of water because you've been asleep for eight hours or whatever, like, seven. And then, uh... So you dehydrate a bit. So I start drinking water. I'm just, like... And the guy, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:25:00 wait for it to kind of drain a bit. And then... Because it's all way up back there. And then, uh... This is way up back there, and then... This is more description than I've ever wanted. I thought we had moved past this. I thought we already got past you being sick, and I didn't have to hear this,
Starting point is 00:25:14 and you came, you brought it right back around, you being like, so at night, I like to really get up in there and pick those boogers out, just like really get them, make sure I get all that. Sometimes they come out a little bloody that's how i know i got it good what is happening i don't know so then uh
Starting point is 00:25:35 you know i thought i was like you know what i'm taking an advil so i took an advil and then an hour later i was like you know it helped a bit but like i'm gonna take a tile and i'll really knock this thing out. That helped me out. Then I was like, wow, I'm feeling pretty good. Now those have both worn off and now I'm back to I feel like they're kind of achy but I'm not laying down like I can't
Starting point is 00:25:56 do anything. I'm just in that achy state. Everybody's had a cold. You're like, hey, I get it. It's like I could take another Advil and be like, I'm feeling good again but i'm like hey you know whatever i'll save it for if it you know feels worse or i get another headache or something like that but you know we need to we need to we need to move on from this we need to we need to move on uh i'm gonna take this i'm we're going to ads we're going i're moving us so far away. We're so far away
Starting point is 00:26:26 from this conversation. We're going to sell you a thing because I cannot be responsible. This is probably the happiest anyone's ever wanted ads. It was like, please get me to the ads. I'll take the ads. Oh my god. Alright, well, today's episode is brought to you by Quip, everybody.
Starting point is 00:26:44 Hey, I know a lot of you out there have been listening for a long time, so you know what Quip is. You know how it works. Brushing, flossing, and now chewing gum. Gum is the unsung hero when it comes to better oral health. The American Dental Association recommends chewing gum, sugar-free gum if you can, for 20 minutes after every meal. It like gets in there, gets all the gunk out of your mouth. That's how that works. Gum is something a lot of us chew to relieve stress, curb appetites, all that different stuff, freshen our breath. But it can actually be a great part to helping your oral care routine. And so Quip is out there with gum to help do that.
Starting point is 00:27:26 It was only a few short years ago that Quip reinvented the toothbrush, and now they've done it again, this time with chewing gum. They've launched this new gum for your oral health. It's good for you. It's good for your kids. It's good for the family. And it comes in, you know like
Starting point is 00:27:41 the Pez dispensers? You know those dispensers? You get the dispenser now, and you get a bunch of gum with it, and then you can just put the gum in the dispenser, carry the dispenser around with you, pop that thing open, boop, right in the mouth. It's great. Here's what I'll say.
Starting point is 00:27:58 I didn't realize how effective and fresh breath smelling this gum was because I was chewing it while I had a mask on. And you know how when you breathe out in your mask, it hits you immediately? So if you have bad breath, you know. That's true. So I knew my breath was good because I chewed this gum after I ate dinner
Starting point is 00:28:23 and then had to go outside. I don't know, maybe an hour later. Put my mask on and it was like, minty. I was like, oh. I was like, damn, it got me. So for sure, for sure, it is good gum. The Slim Dispenser comes in five colors, metal or plastic. You can pack up your gum in it.
Starting point is 00:28:46 It protects up to ten pieces at a time. It fits in, like I said, your purse, your pocket. It's good to go. No hands, no wrappers, no nothing. It's not a substitute for brushing or flossing, but it is a great backup team. It's a support, right? If you're going to, I'm going to try and pretend like I'm Crendor. If you're the ADC,
Starting point is 00:29:07 this is your support in the back, right? Does that make sense? Yeah. Alright, it checks out. Pair it with a Quip electronic toothbrush, refillable floss, or other great products that they have.

Starting point is 00:32:56 going on here i'm not a big fan of this but you're also right you're totally right but i hate this i hate so it's like too much yeah It's like my body's gotta do that Let the mucus flow It's like let the spice flow It's like Dune Let the mucus flow That's the traffic It's clogged up in my nose
Starting point is 00:33:16 You mentioned leaning down That's my biggest mask problem As of late Every time I look down with my glasses And a mask on, my glasses fall off Ah, I see Drives me crazy So I have to tie my mask around my glasses
Starting point is 00:33:32 So I can keep them in place Because the glasses, you know how they hook on your ears Well now there's mask loops there So it isn't perfectly in my ears So they always fall off So I'll look down I've dropped my glasses more times in the last year than I have ever, ever.
Starting point is 00:33:48 And I have to get new glasses at some point, thankfully, but I'm trying to hold off and wait, but my glasses right now are scratched up. And they have that no-scratch coating. It don't matter. These glasses have seen some shit. Wait, no-scratch coating? How do you prevent scratches? It's like some super...
Starting point is 00:34:06 I don't know, magic! I don't know, some sort of weird coating they have. It, uh, it does really well, but it also, you know, clearly doesn't. Because I'm looking at a scratch right now. It works really great except it scratches the shit out of your glasses. I mean, I think it's supposed to be one of those things, like, if you drop it, it's fine. But, you know, dropping it repeatedly over and over and over again, probably every time I look down, they fall off. I have to like grab them and catch them. And sometimes I get them.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Sometimes I don't. All right. Well, let's go to the weather. Weather time. All right. It's weather time. weather weather time all right it's weather time let's see weather request uh top one is batman turkey there's all right we got to go to batman turkey we got to go is that really how i gotta look this up batman turkey batman turkey it really is batman a city in turkey shut up it's the capital of a region as well huh damn the capital of batman batman turkey 38 degrees fahrenheit four percent chance of

So I discovered the history of Batman. So apparently, this is going to blow your mind. I'm shocked by this. So apparently
Starting point is 00:36:37 Batman, a Batman is an ancient unit of Persian measurement. In fact, if you go to the English dictionary and you looked up Batman, it would not say, you know, Bruce Wayne. Which, of course, he's not. There's no connection.
Starting point is 00:36:56 No one's ever been able to prove that. But it would say a Turkish unit equal to 16.96 pounds. Wait, what? Yep. Huh. Yep. And apparently most people believe that the Batman River actually took its name as a shortening of the Bati Ramen, a nearby mountain. A nearby mountain.
Starting point is 00:37:34 And the only reason why it is kind of famous, I guess, is because in 2008 they sued, or they said they were going to sue the Dark Knight because there was only one Batman in the world. Which I think was like a publicity stunt. But, yeah, I guess, is this true? Can I look this up? Batman definition. Oh, also there's an officer's personal servant is a Batman. Is this true? Can I look this up? Batman Definition. Oh, also there's an officer's personal servant is a Batman. That's the Oxford English Dictionary. Huh.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Batman Definition. There's got to be plenty. A soldier or servant. Yep, I see that. Wow, so that's a totally different one. Huh. What do you know? Incredible.
Starting point is 00:38:08 So there you go. So now we're getting multiple versions. There's too many Batmans. Too many Batmen, yeah. Well, there you go. Now we know. That's the weather. Okay, let's go to sports.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Sports over at the sports desk. We've got basketball still happening. We've got some standings here. Bulls were supposed to play today against Toronto, but Toronto didn't have enough players because of COVID. So they're not playing today. But, you know,
Starting point is 00:38:42 you got to take a look at the East here. You got Philadelphia, Brooklyn up at the top. You got Milwaukee. Then you got Toronto, New York, Boston, and Chicago and Indiana and Charlotte and Miami all competing down there. A tight race down in the East. Over in the West, you got the Utah Jazz at the top, the Lakers, the Clippers, the Suns, the Spurs, the Trailblazers, the Warriors, and the Denver Nuggets with the Dallas Mavericks right outside there. Over in hockey, 8 million games to go.
Starting point is 00:39:19 8 million games to go indeed. Looks like Toronto up at the top. Edmonton's there. Tampa Bay. You got Washington and you got Vegas all up there. Also, yeah, 8 million games to go. And baseball's actually going to be starting up extremely soon. So that's pretty neat.
Starting point is 00:39:43 Speaking of 8 million games, baseball season's starting. That is extremely true. And that's sports. What's happening? What's going on with curling or the world of figure skating? What's happening outside our basic sports, Crandor? Let's expand for us. What's going on out there?
Starting point is 00:40:08 The kids at home want to know. Curling Canada and all the curlers should take a bow for pulling off Scotties in a bubble. There you go. I have no idea what you just said, but it sounds interesting. I don't even know what I just said. Take a bow. Curling Canada and all the curlers
Starting point is 00:40:26 who took part in Scotty's Tournament of Hearts this year. It was a 10-day event played in a bubble environment during a global pandemic, and it seemingly went off without a significant hitch. Despite rigorous testing, there are no positive COVID results. It played at the Canadian Olympic Park in Calgary.
Starting point is 00:40:42 It played without fans in the stands, wrapped up Sunday at Markin-McPhil Arena. I feel like there's not many fans in the curling stands anyway, but, you know. I disagree. I think those stands, I think that's the hypest crowd ever.
Starting point is 00:40:57 I'd be there. I'd go to a curling stand. Yeah, are you kidding me? Sweet, sweet, sweet. That was a long ass article let's see curling I just want to is there like going to be curling Scotty's
Starting point is 00:41:11 tournament on the internet I can watch can I put this on while I paint Scotty's tournament curling I think there is. It's on YouTube under the Curling Canada channel.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Dude, if you go to youtube.com slash curling Canada, they actually have the entirety of this tournament. Multiple days. Weeks. There's weeks of curling content. Well, all of that's great. If you don't know what curling is, if you go to their webpage,
Starting point is 00:41:49 they have a two-minute introduction to what curling is. And it is hilarious. It's six years old, and it's done in a ridiculous animated style, and I love it. And I'm so happy it exists. And then once you've watched that, then you can watch
Starting point is 00:42:04 all the other nonsense. Yeah. All the other real stuff. But just go watch that intro video because that is... Oh my God, they have a curling day special. Mama mia. All right then. What is our big news story of the day?
Starting point is 00:42:21 If you're looking for a big news story of the day, I'm going to let you know one right now. Wait, hold need a random fact oh jesus yeah what's the thing now this is a thing yep plastic easter eggs and plastic easter grass were invented by a man who holds more patents than thomas edison but for what like what else has he made? Patents for what? Is it good things or useful things like Thomas Edison made? Or is it like, yeah, grass that's plastic? If you've ever enjoyed an Easter basket with plastic eggs and grass, then you can thank Donald Wetter, Weeder Wetter, the man who invented both.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Wetter not only holds the patent on holiday staples, he also holds a total of 1,413 U.S. patents, including one for water-based inks, flower pot covers, and decorative wrappers. Edison has 1,093. All right. I mean, I love this guy. Has a lot of things that he's created. I feel like Edison still wins.
Starting point is 00:43:24 I feel like out of all the possible things contributed to society, Edison still is going to win this thing. I mean, probably. He's got more recognition, but... Is that what you think this is based on? Edison's got better brand recognition. I mean, he does. Otherwise, the other guy's got more patents. Touché. Touché. That's what guy's got more patents. Touche.
Starting point is 00:43:47 That's what he's got. Alright, new story. I typed in California man. Oh, alright. And we've got California man cited after using mannequin for carpool
Starting point is 00:44:04 lane. You know what? I believe someone would do that. I think that would definitely happen. Yeah. I want to hear about this guy. Carpool lane. All right. Go for it.
Starting point is 00:44:14 I know we've used the carpool lane when I'm in the car. I'm thrilled when you're here and I get to use it. It's a treat for me. Yeah. Because then, you know, you're just cruising along. Everyone else is just like, beep, beep, beep. I got to get to work. Beep, beep, beep.
Starting point is 00:44:31 A California driver who said he used a mannequin as his passenger for at least a year and a half in order to access carpool lanes has been cited and faces a fine of at least $400. The mannequin, adorned with gray hair, wrinkles, glasses, a Cleveland Indians baseball hat, and a face mask, sat in the passenger seat. Well, that's how you knew it was a mannequin. Cleveland Indians in L.A.? Nah. Nah.
Starting point is 00:44:55 They're like, that doesn't seem right. Officer, we should pull him over. I don't know why that cop called his fellow cop officer, but whatever. Sat in the passenger seat of the driver's Toyota Tacoma when he was pulled over on February 19th. Officer S. Sollinger was patrolling the eastbound 210 freeway in Glendora in search of carpool violators. The officer noted the front passenger in the Toyota was suspicious and that the vehicle had tinted windows on its front passenger's side, which is illegal. Sollinger realized the passenger was fake when the driver rolled down his window.
Starting point is 00:45:27 The driver didn't say much, California Patrol Officer Rodrigo Jimenez said to the LA Daily News. Other than that, he's been driving with the mannequin and he'd been getting away with it for a year and a half. He was honest. He's been driving with the mannequin. The driver was cited for carpool infraction, but the mannequin was not confiscated.
Starting point is 00:45:47 There is no additional punishment for trying to dupe officers by placing a mannequin in the passenger seat. Drivers will attempt to use mannequins, a bundle of blankets, or even a small doll to make it look like another person is in the vehicle, Jimenez said. The mannequin, though, was the most realistic attempt at a carpool lane deception they had ever seen. I thought I'd seen them all, but I guess not. Jimenez said this is something that's straight out of the log ride at Knott's Berry Farm or Disneyland. Yeah, this is a very LA story. People will do whatever it takes to get around traffic.
Starting point is 00:46:21 I believe all of this. All of it is believable. I think more people do it in fact i'd be i'm i'm i think it's safe to say 50 of the people in the car lane are all mannequins i think it's fair to say that all right well i mean that is a true story it's a real story. That's our news story of the day. Okay, everyone. That's it for us. We'll be back sooner rather than later.
