Today's episode is brought to you by Calm.
Calm is here to relax your bod and get you feeling right.
Also today we're brought to you by MeUndies.
MeUndies are the undies that I have on me.
Now let's jump into this podcast.
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,acks and Crandall in the morning.
Woo, we're back.
I had like a little like, eh, at the end of that.
Like, eh, eh.
I thought you were going to be the one suffering, but it's me apparently.
Eh.
How are you doing?
People probably wondering where the podcast was last week.
How are you doing, pal?
Yeah, so I had the old COVID-19.
Uh-huh.
And I'm better.
So that's good. I still still have congestion it's like a you sounded when you did uh the crin minute you sound a little congested still yeah i still got a little
congestion it's like it gets a little better every day but like it's still still lingering in there
you know what i'm saying uh i was like do you know how you got it how did you just what happened i don't know just
i just i just got it and so what happened oh my god let me please do so first up remember my neck
but my neck strain my how could i forget yeah so my neck gets better. I'm like, finally, my neck is better. And then we get a sewage backup.
I was assuming you were home and not referring to constipation.
No, that happens just frequently.
Okay, yeah.
So I was backing up.
And so it backed up into our laundry laundry area so we had to call somebody
that comes out and they're like we can't get there till tomorrow so they'll like sewage water just
sitting there and then they unclog it the next day and they're like yeah that's uh that's what
it is so then they had to have people come out and like dry, dry it all out and use, like, dehumidifiers and then, like, cut drywall.
So that was fun.
So then we just had, like, fans running for three days where it's just, like, like, you just, you know, close the door, block it off, but it's just like, you're like, all right.
And then after that happened, I was like, finally, everything is done.
Like, OK okay we got
i would have just slept at your office i'm like i'm over it yeah it was like everything's done
great and then i was like i got i got a bit of a sore throat that's kind of weird and then uh
took the old kobe test and it was slightly positive like. And I was like, all right, that's not good.
And then the next day, that's when it hit.
Damn.
Do you think maybe it was the contractors, whoever came out to your place?
I don't think so, because it was literally, like, a day later.
Like, I don't know.
Okay.
Well, what did you do before that?
I did my normal stuff.
I go to the gym.
I go to, I mean, I've been going to the gym for years.
You think, yeah, I'm sure there's probably,
there could be someone who was asymptomatic who probably went maybe.
It's true.
I mean, I don't know.
Because I'm thinking, like, they probably sweated everywhere.
They maybe touched a thing.
I don't know.
They go to the grocery store, go to Target.
I mean, it could be literally anywhere.
I guess you're right.
It really could be anywhere.
I also know know because then uh
toaster woman also got it but she only had like a cough and congestion she didn't really have
anything crazy uh i noticed even like on twitter like kristin got it everyone be getting it huh
but a few of my viewers got it so i was like i don't know this is like another round going around
either way there is there actually is they mentioned on the news that there's another variant out there right now uh
well yeah uh what i had was the sore throat got worse it was probably it wasn't mono tier but it
was almost mono tier the sore throat was terrible and i looked it up and everyone's like yeah this sore throat sucks it was like five six days of just super sore throat it was it didn't hurt until i would like
swallow or eat and then you're like uh so i just tried to not do that and then aside from that i
was just you know i'd like uh congestion and kind of aches and stuff like having a cold but i didn't have fevers or anything
and then it's so crazy to me because the timeline for this was i was going to go to chicago so we
could go have like a ridiculous meal and talk about it on the podcast that was like our plan
yeah but i also had come off of i went to twitch
con oh yeah so i went i was at twitch con and i had you know thousands of people around me
one night saturday night i went to a we need to talk about it by the way because it's crazy
but i went to this bar and um there was like people crammed all over each other yeah and so
i drove back and I was feeling fine.
And Monday rolls around and I'm feeling fine.
And Tuesday rolls around and I'm feeling fine.
I'm thinking, all right, I was worried that maybe I'd get COVID
and I'd have to cancel the flight.
But it looks like everything's good.
And then Tuesday night, you're like, bro, I got COVID.
And I was like, what?
How did you get it?
I feel perfectly fine.
Yeah, I don't know. But maybe it was the stress of just everything,
and then that weakened my immune system, too.
But, like, I don't know.
It was just, I was like, this is it.
It was the, of all the times, like, right before the super Alinea food.
Oh, I know.
I was just like, all right.
Well, instead of getting, like like a super taste experience i had
to lose my taste yeah you wouldn't have tasted anything anyway it would have been it for you
yeah that was the other weird thing i had i had the i like lost my smell and taste a bit
uh i didn't like fully lose it it was weird because like i think part of it was being congested
because obviously when you get congested, you can't.
But like the one day is like day three or four.
I was like smelling my shampoo and I was like, I don't smell anything.
I'd smell like soap.
I'm like, I don't smell anything.
I just smell like I was like, I can't smell it.
Like I would like kind of smell something.
So then the next day it was a little better and then it kept getting better.
Now it's like it's my smells pretty good.
It's probably like at 90
but my taste is still like kind of muted like my taste is probably like 60 70 it's weird
uh and like certain things i can taste easily like oh yeah i taste that but like other things
i'm like uh it doesn't fully taste like how it used to it's weird isn't it i guess because some
parts of your tongue taste certain things yeah so maybe that part of your tongue is still like, bro, I need a day or two.
It might be.
It's gotten a little, it gets better, like, every day.
I notice sweet things actually taste fine.
So that's, I don't know if that's good or bad.
I mean, you know, it's your body saying, eat some candy.
Yeah.
Coffee tastes fine.
Coffee was a little weird, and it got better.
Like, oatmeal.
A lot of things are just fine now, but it's just a certain few things
where they taste really mild.
It has been a week or so, so you're on the recovery train.
Yeah, it'll be two weeks tomorrow, I think.
Or maybe today, I guess technically.
I tested today.
I was negative, so I don't got it anymore.
Yeah, you're just on the mend.
Yeah, but I still got that lingering congestion.
People say a lot of it, like the congestion can linger for like a few weeks,
and then there's people like, I got smelling taste back, took like a month.
Some people like lost it for months.
I don't know.
Yeah, there's some people who have a cough for like a long time.
Yeah. Toast Roman actually had it cough for like a long time. Yeah.
Toast Roman actually had it where for like a day or two,
she would like smell dishwash soap and it tasted or didn't taste.
It smelled like.
Whoa, you should get help.
It smelled like sewage.
And then she like tried her hot sauce she likes,
like the Nando's garlic one, and it tasted awful.
Interesting. And then after that, after like a day day or two it went away and she was fine so i don't know it was weird uh dr john said it's an inflammatory inflammation of the olfactory
nerve of course dr john would chime in with that of course so i was like the old factory nerve what about the new factory nerve doctor yeah dr john
coming in coming in strong um so yeah i was reading about it apparently like seven percent
of people like completely lose their smell and taste and like a lot of people just have it go
away for a bit they're like takes a while apparently like permanently lose it yeah
what like they know like they permanently lost it for like months some people have like still
haven't gotten it back but it's rare most people get it back uh it's weird they're like apparently
doing like physical therapy for smelling like they're having people like smell different scents
and it like tries to reawaken their nose thing which you know for me i smell stuff i love smelling
things so i've just been smelling stuff non-stop like this peppermint candle smells like peppermint candle smells good i was gonna say
i was gonna say i uh i don't have covid but speaking of candles i have a candle in my apartment
that i keep forgetting is in my apartment and every once i'll be like my what is that phantom
smell what is that what is that smell and i I realize there's a candle in the other room, but it's a really powerful candle.
I'm like, what the hell is that smell?
Yeah.
It smells like cookies, though.
So I think, why is there a cookie?
So at least I'm doing fine.
But I will say, taste?
If I lost my taste, I'd probably be okay.
Because I like food because of the way it tastes.
So if I lost my taste, I'd probably be fine. I'd like food because of the way it tastes. So if I lost my taste, I'd probably
be fine. I'd probably eat crackers all the time and be
okay. I've heard some people just
have it with toast, Romanette, where they
have really bad taste and really bad
smell. Things just taste and smell
real bad. Well, maybe
it'll make vegetables taste better. And I'll be like,
oh, sorry, only broccoli for me.
Thanks. I remember
there was this air conditioning guy like months ago I talked to and he was
like, yeah, I tried eating portillos after I got it and it tasted rancid.
And then a week later I was fine.
That's fascinating though.
Like it makes you question things about what you, you know, like what you see and taste
and smell.
Yeah.
What does it really smell like
when one minor change you're like,
ugh, this is rancid.
Yeah.
No, it's crazy.
But I keep trying to do that smell stuff
where I just keep smelling everything,
see if that helps.
But I feel like I'm pretty good for the most part.
So you're like smell testing things?
You're going around like...
Yes.
Just sniffing everything?
This book?
Yep.
It has that book smell.
Oh, this candle?
Smells like candle.
I mean, I guess if that's the way you're going to do it, sure.
Yeah.
So, overall, I know a lot of people have had it worse.
So I'm like, I think I'm all right.
I didn't have any breathing issues. I didn't have any... I honestly didn't have any fatigue. Like, a lot of people are like, oh, I think I'm all right. I didn't have any breathing issues.
I didn't have any.
I honestly didn't have any fatigue.
Like a lot of people like, oh, I was so fatigued.
I didn't really have any fatigue.
Like I had like fatigue for a day or two initially.
I'm probably going to say that's because you have like vaccine stuff.
I would say it's a combination of the vaccines.
I had the first booster.
I had everyone was like like zinc i was like drinking
pedialyte dude the first couple days i was powering pedialyte i read something about netty
potting they're like if you netty pot right away you can help get virus particles out i was netty
potting i do that anyway and uh you went you went you went to like defcon 4 on that shit i did i
was taking my vitamin d i I was taking my B12.
Taking my probiotics. I was all out.
I was like, listen, I don't even give a shit
if it doesn't work. If it's a placebo.
Yeah, you might as well. Yeah, it's not
going to hurt anything. So I just went all out
doing that. I just want to be on that same
like, my goal
in life is to be wealthy enough
that I can be on the same medical
plan as like rich Hollywood
celebrities and the president.
You know what I mean?
Like I know, like this isn't even a joke.
I think I might've said this before.
This is totally real.
Since I moved to LA, I've realized there's two types of medical, like there's medicine
that everyone else has.
And I would love to hear Dr. John talk about this, even though he probably can't because
it's secret, but
I swear to you,
I know for a fact
that there is a tier of medical
care that is above everyone else's.
I have
seen people have conversations, I was in a room
where people were having conversations where they were like,
yeah, I should go see this doctor, and it's like, oh, I already
saw a doctor about it, and they're like, no, no, no.
Go see this doctor, say that I recommended you, and already saw a doctor about it. They're like, no, no, no. Go see this doctor. Say
that I recommended you and they'll
take care of it. I was like, whoa!
Like, there is a level
of, like, when people
get sick, if you're like an actor
and you get sick and they
need you on set, they fill you
with, like, miracle drugs.
You, it's like
you don't even have a cold.
I want to be on that.
I want to be a part of that.
I'm like, we look at a sore throat
and they're like, hold on.
Here's one injection.
You're fine.
Like, how's that possible?
How'd that work?
I want to be on that.
This is, I'm not even,
this isn't even like weird conspiracy stuff.
I'm convinced.
I watched it happen.
Yeah.
I watched one friend tell another friend, both Hollywood people, don't go there.
Actually, take this.
They'll take care of you.
I was like, whoa.
Okay.
And it wasn't for anything dumb.
It was for like spinal cord stuff.
It was like for back problems.
So it wasn't like, yeah, it wasn't like, oh, you know, they'll give you the right medicine.
It wasn't like when dudes are like, you don't want that. You want the weed guy. No, it wasn't like, yeah, it wasn't like, oh, you know, here, they'll give you the right minute. It wasn't like when dudes are like, you don't want that.
You want the weed guy.
No, it wasn't like that.
It was straight up.
Just, you don't want that doctor.
Here's a real doctor.
It's like, what?
Dude, I'm yeah.
I went on that train.
I want like when the president gets sick and the next day he's fine.
I want those drugs.
Sign me up.
Yeah.
The super drugs.
Yeah. I want the super drugs. Like, Like actually it kills every white blood cell in your body
But you will be fine
Like alright let's do it
Um
So yeah that happened
And uh
What a great fun time
Well I'm glad you're feeling better
Yeah
We missed out an entire week What a great fun time. Well, I'm glad you're feeling better. Yeah.
We missed out an entire week.
We missed out an entire week of talking.
We really did. And you probably had your TwitchCon stories and other stuff.
Yeah, I got TwitchCons.
I don't even know where to start, dude.
I don't know where to start with you.
All right.
I guess we can start all the way back at TwitchCon.
I guess that's a good place.
Sounds good. First off, driving at TwitchCon I guess that's a good place First off
Driving down to TwitchCon, what a mess
It's supposed to take two and a half hours
It took me about four
Only because while driving there was a traffic jam
That took about an hour and a half
And I was like, what? What's going on here?
Why is there a traffic jam?
I waited, cars were barely moving
By the time I got done, Got to the end of the traffic jam
And there was an accident
Except it wasn't on my side of the road
It was on the other side
Of the highway
I have no idea why traffic stopped
Couldn't tell you
I guess one person maybe an hour ago
Slowed down a little bit and the backup
Kept exponentially growing
I have no idea
I've never seen anything like it I was like shut up
So finally got back on the road
Got back down there and then
That night Saturday
Went out
Hung out with a bunch of amazing people
Lore our dear sweet boy Lore was there
And we went
To this bar
That was an underground
Kind of like I don't know speakeasy
Kind of thing except
The band that they had that night
Was a funk band that
Only played 90s covers
It was the best
The minute I knew it was going to be amazing
Is when they played a funky version of
Britney Spears
Hit me baby one more time it was amazing So I was like yeah this is going to played a funky version of Britney Spears. Hit me baby one more time. It was amazing.
So I was like,
yes, this is going to be a great night.
So we started drinking and it was super fun.
Everything was good. It was chill. I was happy
to be a part of
a fun night out. It had been a while.
Cue.
We leave the bar
and the bar is very close. It's in the area
right next to the convention center. We leave the bar and that was is very close you know it's in the area right next to convention center we leave the bar and that was the first of three fights i witnessed at twitch con
fight number one right outside the bar there's a bunch of uh you know like the hot dog vendors
right there's like dudes selling chips and stuff and you know people trying to make a buck
right out in front of it, two dudes in like
Twitch paraphernalia
start beating the crap
out of each other.
I don't know who
any of these guys were.
Not a clue,
but they start beating
the crap out of each other.
And the security guards,
rather than stop it,
started flashing flashlights
to move people away
from the fight
so they could finish.
They were like
flashing the flashlights,
like, get out of the way.
Let them handle it way Let him handle it
I was like what the hell
So I watched two dudes who I don't know who they are
Beat the crap out of each other
That was the thing
The next day I woke up to the convention
I get there
And I'm going to let you know
Inside the convention center
Besides the giant pog face
Everything in there was it wasn't Sephora, but it was a makeup brand or, like, makeup company.
They had a credit card booth.
Like, sign to get a credit card.
They had, like, it was like the Capital One coffee hut.
They had, like, stuff for streaming And stuff for like looking beautiful
The only games that were there
There was an area for Sega
There was an area that was like
Fortnite and then there was all
The Amazon stuff
That's all I saw dude
I was like
I don't belong here at all
I don't fit in at all
So I went instead hung out with a bunch of different
like I met
a friend from Extra Life and we got
coffee and I just like schmoozed
around, right? Like went and saw people,
played some Sega games, that kind of stuff.
Then I went and did my signing,
had a blast. It was fine.
But while I was on my way to the signing,
I saw some
streamer that
it might have been Tyler1.
I don't know what this guy's name was.
That guy.
And he had a huge crowd of people around him, and all of them were like, you're the best.
They're following him through.
But there was one guy in camo – like, not camo color, but like neon camo pants, weird neon top.
And his hair like really poofed up very high.
Like, I don't even know how it was curly hair, but like poofed up.
And he had maybe eight cameras attached to his body.
And, and I don't know, I guess he was streaming because he went up to him and started like harass.
I think it was harassing him or he was trying to harass people that were with him.
And the guy who I think was Tyler or whatever, he ignored it completely and just kept moving.
But fans started getting in a fight with this dude.
He's like, I just want to talk to him.
And fans started getting in a fight with him.
He's like, I'll suck.
I just want to talk to him.
And it's very obvious he's recording him harassing people.
He's one of those guys.
And so then I watched two dudes on the floor fight.
So I saw that guy and the other dude fight.
And I was like, oh, this is so dumb.
So I left and went up to do my signing.
Come back.
As I'm leaving, I see Gerard and Gerard's brother outside.
I'm like, hey, guys, what's going on?
We're talking.
We're hanging.
And out of nowhere, I hear screaming.
And I see this big dude run and tackle some little tiny guy.
And another fight breaks out.
This is outside.
This is maybe three hours later.
Another fight breaks out.
I'm like, what the hell is happening?
I look over.
It is the exact same dude in those weird pants.
I think he was just starting fights with people.
So now some guy, I guess, started beating him, and no one was trying to stop it.
No one.
Finally, like, I don't know, 18 security guards.
It took way too long for them to get there.
But they finally arrive and break up the fight.
And I was like, that's the third fight I've seen in less than 24 hours.
What the hell is happening here?
And I realized this is ego
combined with not being out,
combined with not going to conventions,
combined with like the way the world has changed
in like really weird ways
where like people now go
and make videos harassing other people.
It all culminated in this one moment.
I was like, nah.
Nah, I'm fine.
I don't know that I need to do this
that much anymore.
It was a lot. I was not too pleased.
Then I drove home.
The worst part was I didn't eat anything
all day, so I was starving.
I kept seeing places on the way home, and I was like,
nope, I gotta keep going. I'll get home.
I'll eat something healthy and good. way home, and I was like, nope, I've got to keep going. I've got to keep – I'll get home. I'll eat something, like, healthy and good.
And then I saw a Raising Cane's chicken sign.
I was like, screw it.
It's over.
I'm getting that.
So I pulled in and got some Raising Cane's, and it was delicious.
And I was like, you know what?
I should have waited, but I don't care anymore.
And that was good.
And that was my TwitchCon experience.
I don't know that I'll ever TwitchCon again.
But everything else around it was great.
I loved everything else.
All the people that I met and hung out with were amazing.
That was fun. All the fans that came by to say hi, that was
great, but the actual con,
I don't know if there's anything there for me.
It's not game related, that's for sure.
It's like streamer lifestyle
brand stuff. I was like,
I don't know that I like that.
You would have been bored immediately 100 it's uh it's just one of those things where like years ago it was like fun it was like a smaller thing and now it's like there's just
so many people you know like the oversaturation of it all i'm glad i managed to go on sunday sunday
felt very chill i think think, in comparison.
There was a lot of open space.
I was like, alright, this was a smart move.
Coming one day was very smart.
But man, yeah.
There was definitely like this weird
aura.
I don't know how to describe it.
I've been in places, like
here's a great example. I saw a lot of people
just standing around, looking like they were looking for someone to spot them.
You know what I mean?
Like they had like masks were supposed to be on and a lot of people were walking around with masks on.
It was fine.
But a lot of people just took their masks off and like stood in a place waiting to be recognized.
It was weird.
It was a weird vibe, dude.
That is weird.
I was like, oh, okay.
Well, all right.
a weird vibe dude that is weird i was like ah okay well all right so then i uh you know came back and then found out that you had covid and was like okay so i spent you know a bunch of time
working doing stuff but my goodness the other day i was uh i went for like i got i don't know i got
like antsy you know sometimes you just get antsy yeah so i went for a walk got I don't know I got like antsy You know sometimes
You just get antsy
Yeah
So I went for a walk
I was at the office
And I just went for a walk
And as I'm coming back
I see
This crowd
Gathered around my car
It's like
Three or four people
Around my car
I'm like
What the hell
So I walk over to it
And I realize
It's not my car
They're gathered around
But in fact
The young woman
Parked next to me and she is at about a 90 degree angle with my car so like we're almost
making a tea and I'm like wait what is going on and she's like oh my god I'm so sorry I'm trying
to back out right now but the guy behind me left and he left his car here and i can't get out so i figured i'd try to
and so all these dudes because admittedly she was very attractive all these guys are around her who
work in this building all these guys are like all right so you got to come out you got it and i'm
like what the she is literally her tire is up against my tire. If she moves right or left, my car is like, she's going to rip off my bumper or something.
And I'm like, oh, my God.
What the fuck?
So I'm like, okay, okay.
Stop doing what you're doing.
And she's like, please.
This is a brand new car, too.
And I just, I think I hit your car and I don't know.
And I'm like okay so what you're gonna
do is slowly reverse she's like but there's a car behind me I'm like you have plenty of room just
slowly reverse so she does I'm like okay I look at my car I'm like there's no damage you like hit
the tire that's fine if the tire's tired it's been hit by other shit stop stressing I'm not gonna
like come after you it's very clear you didn't hit by other shit. Stop stressing. I'm not going to, like, come after you.
It's very clear you didn't hit it at full speed or anything.
We're literally parked.
So chill out.
She's, like, crying.
She's like, I'm so sorry.
I'll give you my number if you want.
You can, like, call your insurance.
I'm like, it's fine.
There's no, I'm looking at it.
There's zero damage.
You're fine.
Here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to get my car back up and allow you to come out through my parking space.
She was like, ah, thank you.
All the guys around were like, oh, we should have done that.
We should have come looking for you.
I'm like, you could have.
It literally says what office right here.
So like, and they're like, oh, damn.
I was like, what was their plan? What were
they thinking of doing? What are these guys doing? I have no idea what these dudes were doing. I'm
like, okay. So I, uh, uh, backed up and then she drove face first out of my parking spot and left
and everything was fine. And the guys were like, damn. Oh, I wish I would have thought of that. I'm like, okay. Pulled back in, got out of my car and was like, that was the least hard thing in the
world.
Y'all panicked over nothing.
And I realized, I truly believe most people in the world are totally incapable of handling
shit.
Oh yeah, 100%.
I couldn't believe how simple it was a solution.
And they were trying to figure out how to like turn her, I know for a fact if I couldn't believe how simple it was a solution And they were trying to figure out how to like Turn her I know for a fact
If I wasn't there they would have guided her
To turning her car directly into mine
Scratching all of the bottom of my car
I think so many things happened to you
With your car
Dude
I have to believe it's because LA has so many people
That the chances of things happening
Is exponentially higher here. Yeah,
that's true. That has to be it because I'm doing nothing.
I'm doing nothing special
or different.
And this every time
every time something like my car
is fine, but it's just like I know
for a fact these guys would have guided
her into destroying my car because
they were trying to help her and F the
person who's not present.
You know what I mean?
I was like, come on.
That was the least – all I had to do was back out.
You could have just found the person who was parked there.
Crazy, crazy.
There were people at the office at the time.
They could have walked in, literally been like, Jesse, you need to come back.
So dumb.
So dumb.
That's my life. that's how i live man non-stop car fiestas
yeah i'm over it
i sometimes
i miss big city you know like like chicago like if i ever moved to chicago i'd live downtown
if i ever moved to new, I'd live downtown.
If I ever moved to New York, I'd live downtown.
Right.
Like, where I don't have to have a car, and I just could walk or subway everywhere.
Yeah.
That's all I want in life. Sometimes I'm like, cars are a pain in the ass.
That's true.
They are.
You got management and everything.
I know.
And now, at least in California, they're doing electric stuff.
And now, at least in California, they're doing electric stuff.
So I think by 2030, they can't sell any new electric cars here anymore.
Or new gas cars.
Oh, I didn't even know that.
Yeah, I think it's 2030.
Maybe it's 2035.
But it's definitely like they're like, you can't do it anymore.
Which means that there's going to be more electric cars all over the place, or electric cars all over the place because California has so many people
in it. And so they'll just be like, we might
as well start making electric stuff.
Yeah, but it's just going to be still going to be
backed up everywhere.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, absolutely.
Except now I won't hear when people are driving
poorly.
Instead of having loud engines, it'll be completely
silent. Silent death is what will happen to me. I'll be like, I guess I'll cross the street. Boom, hit. Dead. You loud engines, it'll be completely silent. Silent death is what will
happen to me. I'll be like, I guess I'll cross the
street. Boom. Hit. Dead. You say that, but there's
still people that'll be like, yo, I gotta make my car
loud. And it'll still be like,
it'll just be like a computer. I want to
know what the loud version of electric car
sounds like, because I'd be like Tesla
coils. This is what I want.
Yeah.
I want to drive
down the road with some Tesla coils
on the back of my car like
zzzt. Zzzt. Zzzt.
That's what I want.
That would be
pretty cool honestly. That would be cool.
You'd look like one of those wacky racers.
Yeah. That'd be great.
Yeah. So that's pretty much all that's
been happening with me. I got more stories, but I can save them.
It's whatever.
I still just love the idea of, like, a bunch of people pulling up, like, late at night,
like, getting ready to race, and it's just like...
Like, what's up, everyone?
I twirl my snidely whiplash mustache.
Yeah, and then you're on the side next to me going,
because you're Muttley the dog.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
And then we drive like, don't worry, Louis.
Let's go.
We like zip off.
Yeah, it has to have like that weird Tesla sound.
Yeah.
Oh, and then we can blast like uh as we drive down the road from the tesla coils yeah yeah yeah perfect well hey You know what else is perfect? What?

are cars. People are driving all over, especially the electric cars, man. They are lining up.
They are all, here they go. They're getting ready to do a race. It's the... Z-Op. Z-Op. Z-Op.
Z-Op.
Z-Op. Oh, boy, there they go.
And they're off.
Z-Op.
Man, that is a lot of electricity.
Wow, just look at it.
That's crazy.
Can you see it?
Z-Op.
Yep, yep, yep.
The old Z-Ops, yep.
Back to you. Thanks, Grendor. Wow, so many Z-Ops. The old Zee-ops, yep. Back to you.
Thanks, Grendor. Wow, so many Zee-ops.
A lot of Zee-ops out there.
If I had to make a car, the new
Tesla car should be called a Zee-op.
It's me,
Elon Musk, here to tell you about the new
Tesla Zee-op. What we need to do is
make a chopper copter with the
power of electricity.
Something I want in the background just goes
People look up and just see like lightning in the sky
just from it flying around.
Like, oh my god, is that a storm?
No, it's chopper copter seven.
I like it.
We need that.
It's a very good idea.
Yeah, that's traffic.
All right, let's go to weather.
Weather time.
Somebody said weather request.
Let's be a little crazy.
Do the weather on the Vostok Station in Antarctica.
Yo, I'm here for that.
I'm looking it up right now.
Let's see.
Actually, no, I watched a video.
I watched a video of some dudes there.
Oh, really?
Maybe like, I don't know, a few months ago.
Yeah, it was super interesting.
Huh.
Let's see.
Vostok Station, Antarctica.
It wasn't even picking up on weather.com.
Probably because the weather there is like negative 14 degrees.
Yeah, let's see.
It is available on AccuWeather, though. Here we go.
Negative 48 degrees.
Yeah, that sounds about right. That sounds right.
My God.
7.31 a.m.
Air quality is fair.
12 mile an hour winds.
Wind gusts going up to 25 miles an hour.
Dust and dander extremely high.
Tonight's weather.
How is dust and dander high?
It's the middle of nowhere. I got no idea.
Dander?
But apparently the stargazing is great and the lawn mowing is poor.
Yeah, that sounds right.
Yeah, the average temperature.
Look at this.
This is for the year.
The average temperature in January is negative 16. The average temperature in January is negative 16.
The average temperature in February is negative 37.
The average temperature in March is negative 63.
The average temperature in April is negative 78.
My God.
The average temperature in December is negative.
Interesting.
Is this like because it's on the southern hemisphere?
Everything's backwards, so summer is winter.
Oh, yeah, maybe.
Is that why July is negative 81 degrees?
It's got to be, right?
It's always flip-flop. Yeah, because January, yeah, yeah, yeah.
December, yeah, because look, it goes October is negative 78.
November is negative 44.
December is negative 25.
January is negative 25. Oh, yeah, that makes sense. I'm sorry. January is negative 44 December is negative 25 January is negative 25
Ah yeah that makes sense
I'm sorry January is negative 16
And then it like goes back up again
The old heat wave of January
The best part is it says
The highest
Recorded temperature
The highest recorded temperature in January
Is 6.8 degrees
Oh my god No I'm alright that sounds The highest recorded temperature in January is 6.8 degrees.
Oh, my God.
No, I'm all right.
That sounds terrible.
What's even crazier?
Whoa.
I would not like to be stuck there.
In May, June, July, and August, they get zero sunlight.
Oh, that's terrible.
That's terrifying.
Yeah.
That would be the worst.
I would hate that uh also 17 humidity
there you go yeah uh and there's there's no information on the moon phase so sorry everyone
no moon phase today antarctic station is it what ones are there
Arctic Station.
Ones are there.
McMurdo.
Maybe I was looking at McMurdo Station.
I watched a whole documentary thing about a station,
and it was incredible because I got to see their life in the station.
But I can't.
There's a lot.
There's a lot of them, so that doesn't help me at all.
I don't think it was the Russian station because there was a bunch of Americans.
Oh, yeah.
There are many more stations than... Are there a bunch of Antarctic stations?
I mean, yeah.
There's a Finland station.
There's the permanent United States station at the geographical South Pole, at the actual South Pole.
There's permanent stations from Poland and New Zealand.
There's a permanent Uruguay station.
There's a permanent Chile station.
There's a permanent – oh, Japan has a summer station.
Fascinating.
There's an Australia summer station.
Argentina has three permanent stations.
Russia has, it looks like Russia has one permanent station.
India has a permanent station.
United States has a permanent summer station since 1972.
Oh, never mind, that closed in 2005.
Oh.
Oh Oh wow
The Argentina three stations
Two of them were closed
Oh wow a lot of these were closed
But many of them are still active
Many of them are still active
Um yeah like
France has an active station
South Africa has an active station
Crazy I guess that makes sense.
Yeah.
There's so many.
Wow, a lot of American stations
closed in 1960.
Interesting.
If you go to the wiki page, there's a lot.
I'm not even halfway through the list.
There's a lot of stations.
Oh my god.
Yeah, wow.
Everybody wants to be in Antarctica.
I mean, I get it.
It's the last truly, like, it's very unexplored.
It's fascinating, super interesting.
Like, yeah, I get it.
And if you look at the map, you can see that there's one area that is all stations all the time.
And then there's, like like a bunch of other ones around
but i like the station that's like there's one little area that's just a ton of stations hanging
out i wonder if they all have like uh you know they all talk to each other yeah it's like uh
it's like going to the united nations or something everyone's just like hey how's it going finland
they're like not bad sp, Spain. Just walking around.
The documentary I was watching was them like, they're inside.
It's so cold, they have to stay inside most of the time.
So it was like watching people almost go crazy, but because they were scientists,
they focused on the stuff they had to do.
But it was wild.
She's like, yeah, today is another day.
I'm just going gonna open this hatch
really quick and wake myself up and it's like
he's like okay
I'm awake I was like my god
he's like if that would have been 30 more seconds I'd probably
be dead I'm like what
nah I'm alright
and then you got penguin neighbors
which is fun
yeah you get to see the penguins.
Yeah.
I'm here for that.
So that's the weather.
All right, let's go to sports.
Sports.
A lot of sports happening.
First thing, Philadelphia Phillies going to the World Series,
beating the Padres, and currently Houston,
up three games to none on the Yankees, Going to the World Series. Beating the Padres. And currently Houston.
Up three games to none on the Yankees.
And they are currently tied 3-3 in the third.
So if they win tonight, they move on.
Then we had a bunch of football games.
We had the Cardinals beat the Saints.
Ravens beat the Browns.
Panthers beat the Buccaneers. Bengals beat the Falcons. Cowboys beat the Lions. Gis beat the Browns, Panthers beat the Buccaneers,
Bengals beat the Falcons, Cowboys beat the Lions, Giants beat the Jaguars,
Packers lost to the Commanders, Titans beat the Colts, Raiders beat the Texans,
Jets beat the Broncos, Chiefs beat the 49ers, Seahawks beat the Chargers, and the Dolphins are currently beating the Steelers.
Cool.
Yep.
Cool.
Yeah.
And then in basketball,
we had the trailblazers beat the Lakers.
Lakers are now 0-3
and look like garbage.
Hornets beat the Hawks
and the Wizards
are beating the Cavaliers.
Jazz are losing to the Pelicans
and the Timberwolves
are beating the Thunder
and the Warriors
are beating the Kings.
And that's sports.
All right.
Grendor, what is our fact of the day?
Fact of the day.
Wait, I didn't do hockey standings.
Uh-oh.
Rewind.
Grendor, what is our hockey fact of the day?
Well, Pittsburgh Penguins are in first place.
Boston Bruins first place.
Dallas Stars first place.
Calgary Flames and Vegas Golden Knights tied in first place.
Now we're done with sports.
Awesome.
Fact of the day.
The wood frog can hold its urine for up to eight months.
Sorry.
What? Why would it mean?
But, like, why?
Well, let's find out.
Talk about having to go. Wood frogs
in Alaska have been known to hold their urine
for up to eight months, sticking it out
through the region's long winters before
relieving themselves once temperatures
increase. The urine actually
helps keep the animal alive while it hibernates
with special microbes in their gut that
recycle the urea,
urine's main waste, into nitrogen.
Yo, what the shit?
Wait, for what purpose? Wait, what?
I don't know, so the
I guess the urine helps
keep them alive? So it's
like
I don't know, some evolution stuff.
I fully expected you to be like, hold on, let me look this up.
And you went with, it's evolution.
I don't know.
This is like the ultimate man versus wild animal.
Frog urine keeps them alive?
Yeah.
That's what I just typed in.
Recycling the main waste in urine into nitrogen keeps the small frogs alive as they hibernate
and freeze inside and out.
It doesn't warm them up.
Instead, it protects cells and tissues even as the critter's heart, brain, and bloodstream
stop.
What?
What the shit?
Crazy.
Crazy.
We need to learn that.
We could live forever.
Yeah. Just by recycling our urine learn that. We could live forever. Yeah.
Just by recycling our urine.
Yeah, we could be invincible.
You're telling me it protects the cells
and tissue?
The heart, the brain, and the bloodstream have stopped working
but the cells
are protected.
They're doing better than us.
Those frogs are cooler than us.
That's true. That's wild's wild You know they're like sharks
Sharks
I think it's sharks don't get cancer
Because like whatever their makeup is
These frogs don't need even
Blood to move
They don't need a heart to beat
If we could combine the two
This is how I become a Batman villain.
This is it.
This is it.
I like...
He's part frog, part shark.
They call him the Fark Man.
He can hold his urine for up to five years.
It only makes him stronger.
The more he drinks, the stronger he becomes.
Don't let him get in water.
The frock is so strong.
His swimming skills.
Half man, half shark, half frog.
The frock.
Well, that's your fact of the day.
All right.
What's our big news story of the day?
So we actually have two big news stories of the day. Oh my goodness.
Okay. One of which was
sent to us not long ago.
McRib returns to McDonald's
for final time. Get it while
you can. What do you mean final time?
Are they finally realizing that it's killing people?
They're like, we put
yoga mats in that.
Part of me thinks it's
a lie. Part of me thinks it's a lie. Part of me thinks it's, uh...
I don't know. We'll see.
The McRib is making its way back to McDonald's
for what could be a last time.
As fast food fiends start to notice Sunday
certain locations donning the golden arches
are promoting the return of the seasonal sandwich,
one of the chain's most popular items ever released.
That's why it's a bit of a surprise
to navigate to the McDonald's website
and see the sandwich maybe going away for good. on the product's new page it said the 2022 offering
will be its last due to a promotion called the mcrib farewell tour the mcrib is back it starts
with seasoned boneless pork and tangy barbecue sauce and whatever. The website reads, When everything combines,
you have a barbecue pork sandwich
perfection. Get one while you can
because this is the McRib Farewell
Tour. Lies.
That's not real. There's no way.
No way. They said
the sandwiches will be available
until November 20th, just under
a month from now. In fact, it's the Sunday
before Thanksgiving,
so stock up for the whole family.
But is the McRib actually leaving?
Whether or not the McDonald's is actually removing the sandwich
from its menu has yet to be seen.
It's not the first time a chain has had a farewell tour for the sandwich,
last hosting an event in 2005.
Well, there you go. They've done this before.
At the time, the McRib was a permanent staple on menus at the fast food restaurant when it was removed.
Since then, however, it has virtually always been around as a seasonal offering.
From 2007 on, it's been available in some kind of limited or seasonal capacity.
It was finally brought back on a semi-permanent basis in 2020.
Now it looks like it's changing once again.
I'll be real. I don't know where McRibs again i'll be real i don't we don't i don't know where
mcribs are anymore but they definitely don't the only mcdonald's around me has not had a mcrib
i don't think la is like a mcrib location yeah i don't know it's uh i haven't seen a mcrib at all
i thought every time i see mcribs being offered the last time i saw mcrib was when we made the
mccox incredible yeah, usually it's around now.
That was how many years ago?
That was a while ago.
Yeah.
Usually it's from now until November.
So it's going to be here for a month or something.
But yeah, I don't know.
This seems like what they always do.
They always bring it back for a month, and then it goes away.
So I don't know.
I don't believe this. there's no way they're gonna
get rid of it forever they definitely say uh before you say goodbye in 11 2022
yeah enjoy our famous pork sandwich as if it's your last i still that sounds like they're gonna
be like all right it's going away and then next year it'll just come back and be like it's it is cryptic enough to like be like we didn't say gone forever we just you
know yeah like i think it's too prominent of an item and a thing people wait for every year for
like the fall to just get rid of it especially in the midwest Are you kidding me? Yeah. It's, I don't know. The only thing I can
think of is like the pork prices
are too far up. But even then
like they would just raise the price of the
McRib. Like I don't know. Sure.
It's, I don't believe them.
And again, they said
they've done this before, years ago. Like they're
just repeating.
Either way.
I love that.
So I went to the food and wine website because apparently food and wine now covers the McRib, which is very funny.
All right.
But the McRib is apparently celebrating 40 years it's existed.
That's a thing.
But what's crazy about this is if you scroll down, they have all these other
things that I think are like semi-related
to it.
It's very weird.
So you can tell this must be the fast food section of the Food & Wine website because
these are the related articles.
Again, related articles.
Right.
Wendy's is introducing a new strawberry flavor, Frosty, for the first time ever.
Wendy's is introducing a new strawberry flavor, Frosty, for the first time ever.
And then Taco Bell bringing back another discontinued item, but which one is up to you?
And then Olive Garden bringing back the never-ending possible for the first time since 2019.
And the best part about the never-ending possible, and this is why I wanted to bring this up,
I read a thing that was like, if you work in a restaurant,
what's some of the most messed up things you've ever seen?
It was like a Reddit post.
And you know,
those people dish in on restaurant stuff.
But one that sticks with me forever
is the fact that there was one person said,
yeah, so when we used to have the never ending pasta bowl,
it would be never ending.
You could have as much pasta as you want.
And I cannot tell you how many times I saw people come in eat so much they puked and then keep
eating what yeah and i was like no and then other olive garden people were like yep happens all the
time and i was like no they're like yeah they do it right at the table i was like no no. So now I am just, we looked at all the, like the amount of salt and the amount of like,
no, I, I can't believe, I can't believe it.
I was like, actually I probably can.
Nevermind.
Like you just eat, you throw up and you're like room for more.
Now I'm telling you, it reminds me of that scene from the hunger games where they're
like, well, you just drink this and you throw up and then you eat some more.
There's so much to taste.
I'm like, what the hell kind of madness is this?
That's crazy.
That sounds awful.
That sounds like a punishment.
It does.
It sounds like when Homer went to hell.
Yeah.
I kept feeding him donuts.
Yeah, I remember that.
Man. Man.
Well, here's the other story.
Cat My National Park has crowned a new Fat Bear champion.
Yo, Fat Bear!
We missed Fat Bear Week, man.
We missed Fat Bear Week, so we have to go back now, and we now know the champion.
This is one time of the year we get to celebrate getting fat.
Every October, Cat May National Park and Exploring.org
celebrate another successful salmon run and their healthy brown bears
with Fat Bear Week.
Cat May National Park is home to more than 20,000 brown bears,
many of whom spend their summers bulking at Brooks Falls and the Brooks River,
where thousands of salmon migrate upstream to spawn.
The bears compete with each other.
I don't know why that's thousands of salmon migrate.
I don't know why you're saying that.
It's funny to me.
Thousands of salmon migrate upstream to spawn.
The bears compete with each other for the best fishing spots
and often eat more than 30 salmon
and more than 40,000
calories, just like Olive
Garden.
They must add huge amounts of fat
so they can survive six to eight months
hibernation, during which the
sows birth and nurse
their cubs. The big
boars become huge and compete for sows and the good fishing spots.
Wait, big boars?
Do they mean bears?
I don't know.
You're reading it.
It says big boars.
I'm relying on you to figure this out.
Maybe they just typoed it.
Or it's boars are joining in, whatever.
Yeah, maybe it's boars and bears?
It's crazy.
Fat Bear Week celebrates their success with a 12-bear single elimination bracket.
Fans, many of whom have followed the Bears on the amazing live webcams on Explore.org,
vote for their favorite Fat Bears.
This year was very exciting with fan favorites 480 Otis and 435 Holly competing with Big Boys.
competing with big boys 747 also known as Colbert as well as bear force one and bear 856 the final I hate that I hate that so much I hate it the final on fat bear Tuesday set 747 against
up and coming so 901 who gained a spectacular amount of weight this season, likely prepping for birthing cubs this winter.
Came down to pure bulk.
Voters crowned 747, who likely tops 1,400 pounds.
The 2022 Fat Bear Champion on October 11th.
Congratulations.
Fat Bear Week is a marvelous celebration of nature
and the great work of our national parks,
doing thanks also to explore.org
for building a community of bear fans who
anxiously await July when the bears return
and can be seen on camera every
day.
There are other cameras
too, some watching orcas, eagles
and even polar bears. I kind of want to see
the polar bear camera. I think
that'd be fun. Yeah.
See what they're up to they're probably
just like i'm drowning again probably sad i actually don't want to see that now let's see
they're probably the polar bears probably going through it right now uh oh geez no this polar
bear is just rolling around on his back oh wait that's a highlightar bears are in the snow.
Let's see.
All live games.
Santa Monica Beach and Pier.
That's probably that one camera that's pretty famous where it looks down on the pier.
It does look like that, yeah.
That one's used all the time.
It's pretty nice.
It's like on the coastline.
It's looking out over the ocean.
Mississippi River Flywater came. Flyway came.
This is a bunch of birds. Well, that's pretty
fun.
You were having
a moment. You were like checking stuff out,
living your life. That was great. I'm here for
