Alright everybody, welcome to the Pastimes Podcast.
Each week we go through an old newspaper from a random date, history picked out by Dave
Anthony. I'm
Garrett Reynolds and I've never seen it before and neither is our guest this week. David
Ferrier. David. Welcome back to the world of dollop even though this is our other podcast
where I do the intro like I told you. I love that it's been very confusing. I love
the world of dollop. We've been intertwined for so many years. It's so nice. It's great
to be seeing your faces. Well, what we were saying pre-record just so everyone knows we definitely
have regular conversations. Not all professional with us was that tickled is what the second
episode of the dollop, Dave? Yeah, I think episode two, right? So episode two is tickled, which is your,
I mean, truly, I always tell people that I do think and I'm not even kidding,
and it's not even because we're in it briefly.
We could have been in it more.
We shot a lot of stuff.
We shot a lot of stuff.
We could have been in a lot more cutting room for it.
But it truly is, it's almost, I think it is maybe the best documentary ever.
It is so good.
It's pretty great.
And so wild.
And anyway, and so people should check that out.
You also, when you did our podcast in New Zealand, our one show in New Zealand,
you were all nervous because you were doing a live podcast.
And then since then, you've just become because you were doing a live podcast. And then
since then, you've just become, uh, you have, so you're obviously you do, uh, an armchair
with Dax Shepard, but you also on his network have Flightless Bird, which is, um, your own
podcast.
Yeah. It's sort of the, the, the, the, the, the, we need another white man with a podcast.
Obviously, so I stepped up and decided to do it.
Thank you.
The braille person I am.
But now I kind of, I got stuck in America a couple of years ago.
I came over for some documentary work and they closed the border to keep COVID out.
And so I got my way.
It worked.
Get back.
We're really work.
Work history has smiled finally upon that choice.
Yeah, we lives are saved, which is great.
Uh, yeah, I got stranded here.
And so I do a weekly show called Flightless Bird.
Just about me and New Zealand are being stuck here trying to figure out how this fucking country operates.
Um, and I'll play it well.
If a toilet bowl is so high, and that kind of stuff, you know, doesn't seem like you're figuring it out too.
I mean, it seems like you're sort of figuring it out,
but there's a lot of turds.
It's slow.
It's slow.
It's slow.
It's a slow, it's a slow drain.
But also you have a new movie, a new documentary called
Mr. Oregon.
And that will come out.
Is that getting a full release on Friday?
Dave Anthony loves a full release.
Yeah, it's coming out in theaters. The Alamo is releasing it. So it's releasing an LA in full release on Friday? Dave Anthony loves a full release. Yeah, it's coming out in theaters.
The Alamo is releasing it.
So it's releasing an LA in New York on Friday on the 6th.
And then the following week it rolls out in Alamos
and other indie theaters.
And so people if they want to get more information,
go to Alamo Drafthouse.
Is it slash?
They go to Drafthouse.
They go to Drafthousefilms.com.
OK.
Slash Mr. Organ. See, I was writing that down before and then it didn't go through.
So that's why it's so funny.
It's funny promoting this film and getting it out there because what I found is everyone
expects now it to be on streaming, preferably Netflix immediately.
Yeah, right.
So the concept of having to go to a cinema, which is what I want people to do, it's really
hard to like get for people to wrap
their head around it.
So hopefully some people go.
I think it's a fun thing to watch.
It's like tickled.
It's like uncomfortable.
The preview gets weirder.
It's amazing.
The preview is amazing.
People should go to your social media,
David Ferrier on social media.
And it is.
It's so good.
It's so good.
Yeah.
So we can't wait to see.
We haven't seen it yet, but we're going to see it soon. Anyway, we um, so we can't wait to see we haven't seen it yet
But but we're gonna see it soon anyway. We're not here to talk about how you've eclipsed us
We're here to talk about a newspaper from a random day in history
So I always like to start with a guest. I always like to start with a guest and a guest David
So I will do my guess for the year. I'm gonna guess this paper.
First of all, I wonder if he's gonna do a New Zealand one,
probably not.
So I'm gonna guess for you, he's probably gonna do something
around, I think probably like 1904 is my guess.
David, you're more than welcome to guess.
All right, 1972.
I like that.
I got in 1972, 10 that would I was born 72
Okay, locked in Dave
What a disaster for you
This to be the first thing you're saying is really messed up just unbelievable what happened here
It's December 29th 1899
I'm not that far off asshole your pre-1904
Yeah, it's really close. It's really close five years off. I was yeah
We're all mad at you, but I don't know why I'm drawing iron. I think David had a better guest than you
How is that possible? This is what this is
This is the problem David
I mean if we were in therapy, I'm not saying that the therapist
would pick sides, but therapists would certainly be like, now, Dave, let's unpack that.
You two in therapy would be amazing.
And it's something I want to witness.
Listen, you need a new, you need a new project.
Too scary way too scary for me.
I look there.
Yeah, Jesus.
So this is Portland, Maine. Oh, great city.
Great town.
The other Portland.
Yeah, the evening express.
Sure.
Yeah, train paper.
Yeah.
Murderous high benders.
Pretty good start.
Yeah.
Blow up.
Okay, wait. Blow up a church to avenge release.
Are you reading an anarchist paper?
It's hard to read, but yeah.
It's really intense. Blow up a church.
Yeah, it's a really big start.
Blow up a church to release,
avenge release of their girl slaves. Wow, this is, there's a really big start. A blow up a church to really avenge release of their girl slaves.
Wow, this is a lot going on here.
Yeah, girl slaves really.
I like the honesty they're talking about the nuns.
That's nice to hear.
I've always referred to them as girl slaves.
This is from so why does the child molester have all those girls slaves?
Sir, what?
During service yesterday in the Methodist mission church in Chinatown,
an explosion occurred and 60 or seven Chinese converts and white people rushed
for the street.
It's very, can I point this interesting, interesting statistic out for a moment,
please?
It's what they lead with as well.
Six to six Chinese people and then a ton of white people.
It's like what I find myself doing with some of my family in the UK, where it'll
be four minutes into a story and I'll go, did it matter that that guy was Chinese?
Oh, isn't that coming back?
Yeah, the thing.
Yeah, where I is that the thing
where I'm like, is it?
Drop in race for no apparent reason?
It's just a man.
Yeah, it's a coming back.
It better be important to the story.
Otherwise, it's really weird that you told me
that this man was Chinese.
I saw Chinese man walking a dog.
I have a feeling he wasn't Chinese.
I think you probably were wrong on that part too, to be honest.
Yeah.
I actually unfortunately asked my grandmother why she always said that and she'd dance right to not care for her. Oh, I have a feeling. Yeah.
She's shocked. As I go, I should have asked that actually.
Slim and ignorance. I spit. I think this sentence is not written well. I think they're saying 60 or 70 Chinese
and white people not separating. Okay. Does that make sense? I think they're saying it's Chinese and
white people 60 or 70. Nice. No, it not. It's white and Chinese. Yep. That's it. All two represented the big ones. Uh, they think Trump would say it really.
Yeah, it does. Um, they got my Chinese and whites all running.
He was in court today, by the way, which is good. Oh, yeah, he that man,
you're a blind panic. It's fun to see play out. We have a really terrible
election at me in New Zealand as well with the results, sort of hitting in a similar land to the idea of Trump getting in here. New Zealand's
bad, America seems bad, not good. You're lucky to have us. You're lucky to have us. The rest of
us, lucky to have us. So they rushed out for some reason when the bomb exploded.
With the building tumbling about their heads, all escaped serious
injury. Well, then there wasn't tumbling about their heads. I'm sorry.
The kids, you weren't there. What sort of imagery do you get from that tumbling
around your head? Yeah, yeah. It was found that a bomb had exploded by a slow fuse underneath the church.
Explosion.
Yeah, very old school.
The explosion is supposed to be the work of Chinese highbinders who hoped to kill seven
mission women and the preacher, the Reverend Mr. Gardner, who married a Chinese woman and
learned many secrets of the high binder through his wife's
brother. This is what is on the blind. I don't know the word high binder. I'm going to
learn to this. It sounds like a wachowski script. Who are the Chinese high vendors in San Francisco?
High vendors hatchet men were basically spies and corrupt politicians who branded together in
secret societies to blackmail and murder and kept track of the actions of Chinese societies such as tongues
The high benders were enforcers and assassins of the tongues. Okay, so the Chinese assassins
Do you know what tongue is David?
No, I don't
So tongues were like it was this like a you would come over as an immigrant in their work
tongues and it was like an enclosed society that you would get into as a Chinese person.
And then tongues would fight each other, but I'm always like, you know, they kind of did
everything for you. They helped you out. They did all this stuff and, you know, you, you,
you're a little worried. And David, and David, I want to point out that the only reason why he
asked you, if you've
heard of them because there's no way unless we did an episode on it I would not be included in that so
anyway so if you get a chance go ahead and listen to our episode the tongue wars on the doll
wow wow this is just getting passive that's a New Zealand thing you just did we got very passive aggression very quickly. It's like the way we
It's episode 66 you can listen
Doll-up jukebox
I got them all bootleg regular record. What, you want to edit it? What do you want, buddy? I got them all.
Bootleg regular record. What do you want, buddy?
That was before your mind wipe though. So the explosion, oh, I already did that part 12 months ago. So this guy, this guy, it's, of course, they want to kill missionaries.
That's fine. That's like standard. But he married a Chinese woman and then
learned the secrets of their secret society. So he got to go. They got to go. 12 months
ago, he disclosed a plot. This is he is the the gardener priest, right? Yeah, the gardener
priest. 12 months ago, he disclosed a plot by which several Chinese were to be murdered and the highbinders then sent him word that he was marked for death.
Not great. Why? Why did you let go? Just killed. I never saw where you're like, by the way, it's just an assassin. Yeah, okay. Yeah, I'm gonna call my shot.
the mission women were instrumental in having the Chinese girl slaves of prominent Chinese taken from their masters and placed in the method is Tom, they were taught English and
Christianity.
There's a lot more going on here than we're really wild.
This is an HBO series.
There's a lot.
I'm going to say when all of a sudden there's missionaries and white people converting non-white
people to their religion, there's a little bit more going on in the story.
That's the thing.
It's like, all right, look, you want to teach some English?
Okay, but then when you're like, and by the way, the best book to learn English on is the Bible. So we're gonna, this is how people talk, okay?
It's the way. Yeah, it's the best.
18 of the rescued girls were in the church at the time of the explosion. Wow. Well, that's,
that was an event. Yeah. I guess you shouldn't have told him he was a marked man because everyone got out.
Right?
Yeah.
Yes.
Stupid moves.
I would have so said, um, retrospect.
But so cocky.
Like so, Eric.
Oh, just classic highbender.
Just classic highbender.
You know how they are.
It's like in a film when you've got, you know, the bad guy, the good guy is about to
kill the bad guy and he just gives a giant speech while he's like almost dead
But not dead or just walks away and it's the same mentality. It's like just yeah, it is
The same what he do reading thing. Oh the best the best trope
It's what at one point a guy was writing a movie with someone and he was like and then he'll sort of go through that speech
It's I don't think we can do that anymore
It's I don't think we can do that anymore I think people are like that's right. Yeah, some guys
Amazing I can't believe very effective for a while
Very effective for a while. It's always been terrible though
Even though like the first time I saw it is like why is he telling in this?
I see the first I think the first couple of times I saw it the first couple of times I saw it
I was like damn James Bond is fucked right now
the first couple of times I saw it, I was like, damn, James Bond is fucked right now.
And you know what this motherfucker's gonna do?
You think he couldn't help that laser, dude?
He fucking dead.
Man, we're gonna need to find a new bond.
The only way you could do it is if you,
you really didn't wanna kill him,
and you're just kinda kill time by just talking a lot.
You're just a long, you've been thinking about this
for so long.
You were fair.
You're at the precipice of killing the world's greatest agent.
And you're lonely.
Like nobody in your organization gets you.
Nobody wants to hear you.
Nobody wants to hear you.
Yeah.
At the end of it, before I turn the laser on,
what are you doing here at free time?
You said you're just drinking, bang, women.
Sure, what do you do read?
What are you streaming?
Any good books?
Any good books.
You can recommend Mr. Bond.
It's just a sad old weird murderer.
So I'll unstrap you for a little while.
And let's swim.
I'll get the sharks out of there for a minute.
We can have a little dip.
I just want to kind of get to know you a little. I'd watch that. Yeah. Yeah. I'd watch that.
That's sad. Two Italians fatally injured. It's others slightly hurt. Yeah. Now we're going
to Italian news. Finally. This is a Pittsburgh. Like there's not a lot of, there's crazy not a lot of stuff going on in Portland.
Right.
By an explosion of dynamite in the east and today, two
Italians were fatally injured and several others slightly
hurt.
The fatally injured were Peter Antonio and Embrose Danel.
The men were engaged in blasting a cut at Homewood Avenue and attempted to thaw out some frozen dynamite by placing it on a hot stove.
Who understands?
No, no.
And the boring ocean was the result.
Please, please.
It's can't be reused.
See, David, in this country, we grew up with Polish jokes, but based on this,
we picked the wrong
National
Thoring out some frozen time. Why is it freezing?
It I don't know but we gotta get to it so it's a active. I tell you what?
Let's put it in the oven all right. We're making
We're gonna make a spicy dynamite
All right relax over there. You're gonna hit the stereotype a little odd, okay?
You like too much, huh? People are gonna think you're a cartoon
So I'm dynamite
What a stove what are you doing? It's probably frozen cuz it's just cold. It's just Pittsburgh and December
It's cold. Yeah, but it's stove
Cold it's just Pittsburgh and December it's cold. Yeah, but it's stove
Well, I mean you'll use that I don't have an issue with it's just
Bring it inside for a minute given a how would rush are you to use this dynamite?
In the late 1800s all the Italians were like cartoons. Oh come on Just like an acme cartoon. And then I'm gonna eat it.
And then the way that it goes off,
it's gonna come in my belly,
it's gonna get a big and a smoker
gonna come out of my ears.
You know how it works?
I feel in America, I am the whole accent thing.
It is the one accent you can get away with, right?
I don't understand how that is the case,
but it is the one thing that is fine.
The title one?
Yeah, I'm just wondering,
I really thought about it before.
I mean, I don't know.
You can get away with it.
Well, I'll tell you, David, don't be saying that
because if people go back and listen to the dollop,
I will be canceled.
It has been an offensive ride.
It's been a journey.
It's been a hell of a journey.
We've done a lot of learning.
Well, I wouldn't even say, but I feel like Italian is just the, we feel comfortable with
it.
Polish, I don't know if people could do Polish.
Italian is just a very good stereotype.
And again, maybe they don't know what we're doing
because in their culture, they thought dynamite in ovens. Yeah. So they haven't caught
up to what we're doing yet. That's how they came up with pizza. I thought it was Italian.
Hey, how many people died when they thought this dynamite out on the start? Two. Okay,
two. Just one way to go go low low enough. Yeah, yeah
What a story for your wife
Yeah, horrific how did he go? Well, he's a
Did you did you ever notice he was a slow? No, yeah, I'm so smarter
He never
He's so smart of how, really. He never,
he's not a super smart.
Ever wonder why the,
ever ask you if the fridge is alive,
it stays on all the time or if it goes off,
like little things like that,
those keep them up at night.
He every say,
I'm going to sleep in the fridge
to see if that alive goes off.
And if you know,
nothing like that, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah. that a lot of goes off and you know, and nothing like that, okay. So this is also from Pittsburgh.
Okay.
Where lead pencils disappear?
At desks at one side of the wonderful center of the great reading room of the Washington
National Library. With its labyrinth of... Isn't a library a great reading room of the Washington National Library. With its labyrinth of...
Isn't a library a great reading room?
They're just really carving out a very specific section.
Yeah, yeah.
OK.
With its labyrinth of pneumatic tubes and less
carriages for books, speaking tubes, telephones, and so forth,
there are blanks for readers to fill with the title of the book they desire and the name of the author.
Lead pencils, new and of full length are placed there every morning, tied to the desk with twine.
Why is this a story? What has happened to you?
How the long do you want?
What?
Honestly, I feel like I'm a something. What was the headline?
What's going to happen to you? Headlines? like I miss something. What was the headline?
What's gonna happen? The headlines about lead
Headlight is where lead pencils disappear
It's a very
It's a very okay
Okay, so they're laid out in the library and they wind up
Okay, so they're laid out in the library and they wind up I noticed the dead pencils are there Jesus this guy Hold on I will get winds am okay
Readers begin to stream in usually within one hour opening, there is not a pencil to be seen.
I give up said one of the assistant librarians.
Great quote.
It's so frustrated.
So frustrated.
Yeah, I mean, she like the pencils at the end of a row.
She is done.
She is done. Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
Keller might explain it, but I can't.
Of course, we can't at times imagine a bit of circumstantial evidence, but we wouldn't
like to treat our intellectual friends as they do the shoplipters in the bazaars.
And so the government has to wink at the petty larceny and buy more pencils.
Oh my god.
Goddamn it. What the fuck just happened? wink at the petty larceny and buy more pencils.
God, I've seen what the fuck just happened. This woman is very, I mean, yeah, okay, I get it.
I mean, you're pissed, but come on.
She's mad.
We need more money budgeted for pencils.
It's just, I mean, it's just, this is, uh, why would call this not a story?
It's, uh, I mean, when you go to the post office of the bank
and you need a pen, it's gone.
And it's not one.
It's so frustrating.
It is.
I didn't know this frustration was happening
in libraries back in the day.
I guess it's nice to hear someone care
about this stuff so much in a way.
There's so much passion.
I mean, when you're like,
what are you passionate about?
Like, what does get you fired up?
I suppose.
I feel like, I'm just, I feel like, I'm you fired up? I suppose I feel like I'm doing a lot and they're fine with it like loud talkers and no questions
They put up with a lot so if it's someone to be breaking at this one thing. It's got to be serious. Yeah
This is why they invented the tiny
Minotaur golf pencil
I don't think that is that historically
Well, that's what they use. Oh, this is what it led to, David, you heard.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Jesus Christ.
Don't do that again.
Shh.
Yeah.
Hey, there are people listening to the dollop.
This is Garif.
Yes, this is the same guy.
I listen.
I have a new podcast called We're Here to Help that I'm doing
with my friend, Jake Johnson. It's basically a call and advice show where we don't say that we're professionals because we aren't,
but we try to help people with problems that are important to them. You can listen to it wherever you
listen to podcasts and it is out right now. So go listen to We're Here to Help with Jake and
Garrett. We're here to help with Garrett and Jake. I don't remember how we did it, but either way,
fun half hour comes out Tuesday, August 22nd, and episodes will be out every Tuesday and Friday. We're here to help.
Chip wouldn't slide.
Nope. I could jump, I can help with this one. Nope. Shouldn't. Next. Chip wouldn't slide. So are they sliding into the water?
this one. Nope, shouldn't next ship wouldn't slide. So are they sliding into the water? Well, let me tell Delaware the attempt to launch the can't read it. I'm going to say
wister Windsor Windsor line steamship Grecion at the Harland and Hollingsworth shipyards
today was a failure. The new ship sticking on the waves. Oh, wow. So there, there, it's
like when they, when they launched new ship,'s like when they When they launched new ship it like slides down
He's like people's day work was really
People's days were this day was shot
They had a plan. I said it was a P.O. Oh fool
Way this is when you're like okay, you're too empathetic.
Yeah, the guy's still breaking champagne over the end.
Not now, Hank.
To a bun voyage.
When the blocks were sawed away
and the vessel started for her plunge into the icy water,
Miss Windsor, daughter of the president of the company
who acted as sponsor for the new liner
broke the traditional bottle of wine and spoke the words. She did do it. The ship. Well,
you don't do that that early. I think you do. What does she do? I think you do it when it's in there.
No, you do. I think you do it before it slides down and goes into the water. No way. No way.
You can't. How do you get to it? What just like hurl the
part at port? No, no, it's a port. You're not who you know who the fuck is that
confident that you're like this will be we'll get it in the water. Because this
never happens. That's why there's a story about it. I don't know. It always goes in the
water. I don't know. I don't think you do it. I don't think you see not getting into
the water. You slide it out. Many.'t think you do it. I don't think so. You see not get into the water. You slide it out. You guys. Many. Many. You know what? You guys have your
laugh. Have your fun. Okay. I know you've created a scenario that doesn't exist. Like
this is a thing. But what I'm gonna do is work. What I'm gonna do and what I love about
me is I'm gonna double down. That's what makes me American jack. So American. Yeah. As a matter of fact,
you don't do it till it crashes. Boom. That just happened. To the great disappointment
of everybody, however, the huge Hulk moved only about 18 inches and then stuck.
It's an awkward champion.
That is an awkward moment.
That is a very awkward moment.
An investigation showed that the tallow in the ways had frozen and caked.
Put it in the oven.
That's a good, that's a really good, yes.
There you go.
So the thing to grease it up is not working, right? That's a good, that's a really good, yes. There you go. So the thing to grease it up is not working, right?
That's not sliding.
Right.
And when the vessel started to move,
the grease dropped from the ways,
and she rested on the timbers without the tallow.
Oh boy.
A lot of boat stuff.
You're losing me, it's about terms here.
Jax were used in an attempt to start the ship again, but every effort failed.
And after an hour's hard work, it was decided to abandon the task.
Okay. I'm going to jump in and just say an hour, not enough time.
If you're really trying to get a shit, every day, an hour, well, this will never happen.
It's cold. You're on the water. It's. Look, I listen, I don't, this ship is sailed.
In the sense that we're not going to fix it. No, wait,
this ship will not really, then you used to really bad cliche.
I agree. I feel bad about that. Absolutely. But that's actually what you did is worse than the boat getting stuck. We've been out here an hour. And I
told her to not christen it until it was in the water as we traditionally do.
We did never done that.
It's always the way it's been done
where I'm always doing my family.
We've always done it that way.
And my papas said it was a tradition.
So you're not both.
People are used to difficult cold
conditions. They shouldn't be giving
ampophed here now.
They should be out there for the entire
day.
19, 19, 18, 19 to be like, well,
I guess it's a restaurant
Closure on what happened is it still sitting there? That's it. Oh, I'm sure it went in the water at some point like they had to go to the pros
Maybe not they might have just turned it into a sushi spot like that one place in the middle of nowhere
When my dad went once and he told me they had amazing sushi.
I was like, I was like, Dad, don't eat here.
Don't.
1899 Windsor ship in Delaware.
I'm looking at it.
I'm looking at the steel freighter.
I hope it is a restaurant.
I just heard about this place out at Long Beach, which I want to go to, which is like a ship that's a restaurant. I'm looking at the steel frame. I hope it is a risk. I just heard about this place at Long Beach,
which I want to go to, which is like a ship that's a restaurant.
I'm excited.
That's what I'm talking about.
That's the one.
That's the one.
Yes.
Yeah, no, I really want to go.
I keep hearing about it.
I love the idea of eating on a sort of a ship that's sort of just out by the way.
David, you got it.
If next time my dad's around, you two, he will love to take him.
No, amazing.
I love that. They knew his name. They were like, Peter's around you too, he will... Oh, I'd love to take him. No, amazing. I love that.
They knew his name.
They were like, Peter, he was like, oh, are you?
Who's work?
Hey, what's up?
I was like, how long have you been eating here?
I was like, I don't know about this place.
He was like, it's so good.
Oh, it's really cute.
I love that for him.
Oh.
So, it was launched in 1900, so it took a few days.
So it eventually did happen.
Oh yeah, then it shipped around for a while.
It was shipped around the term. It did, it did, it did what I'm looking at jet ski. It's not a jet ski
You don't know that
I
Started following Instagram account recently. I think tugboat life and it's just tugboats out doing their thing
And there is some this is a sexual thing shit that happens with tugboats and it's crazy really oh, yeah
Yeah, just like Oh, yeah, yeah Tugboats either doing a really massive
job of guiding a big ship through a port
or it's Tugboats, what happens when they fuck up?
And when a Tugboats fucks up, it's hilarious.
And shit goes, when you've got a giant vessel near land,
it's stuff can go so wrong.
Yeah, no, that's crazy.
It's not where you want to be.
Tugboats, hashtag Tugboats on Instagram. It's really good.
I just want to keep being like one of your relatives
and be like, is that your next documentary?
Oh, the worst.
Is that gonna be, hey, you're gonna do a documentary
about your tugboat?
You know what, you know what,
I just want to say you should do,
you should do what you're talking about.
Look at him, his little documentary.
My family is crazy reason you should really
my ad, my ad Gladys.
It's what my family does over here
when they're just like, that could be a sketch.
And I'm like, I don't do sketches,
so don't say that to me anymore.
Yeah, it's frustrating because you find out,
it's frustrating because they mean well,
but it's also so frustrating
because you understand how little they care about what you do
because they just don't understand what you make
How much work you know, I mean, that's like what my family's like that could be a sketch
I'm like I don't do sketches and also do you have any idea? No, it couldn't be
It wouldn't work. I'll tell you that right now. Yeah, you don't know what you're doing
It's just people being kind so you can't get angry at them. You know, he's got a nod
Oh, he's worried. They're gonna listen see he's worried they're gonna listen. They won't listen to me honest. This is the same.
We don't even release these. This is just the way to hang. Just suit to sad guys.
David likes closure. So on May 27, 1932, theam was brought cited by Savannah Savannah's line city of Chattanooga and sunk
What are the other passengers killed?
They would be dead now anyway David so don't they was just a sudden turn at the end of the story
That was just though you're reading that no, I just looked it up. I looked it up. I went to be a man
Traveler was like I have an up. I went to be a man. There's a time traveler was like, I have an update.
I went into a boat forum.
Dave's in a boat forum.
Somehow Dave got called.
Somehow Dave called to my fascist already in the boat.
Dave just gave block to people and is on a 12 hour suspension in the boat forum.
He's been in the boat for a while. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Uh, uh, four men killed.
Well, I cast your Pennsylvania.
Okay.
Four men were killed and several others injured
by a boiler explosion one mile west of Elizabeth town today.
Wow.
They were employed by Keller and Crescent railroad
contractors. The dead were Donald Haldeman, Bainbridge, Wit, Sherbon, West Donnagle,
Burke. I can't tell what's a city and what's a man. Yeah, no, they're all it's the same.
So you're reading on the Bible just like a list. This is very. what is this again? Yeah People will say and oh my god, so this is this is how it ends and an Italian known as Tony who was hurled 150 feet
Everybody gets a full day even though like that fucking a dying guy Tony
Doth one human cartoon
One god damn it's like all the time guys died like a cartoon guy
But that fucking Tony just got shot man fucking Tony just went flying I
Had a flight to the air is like me
150 feet is so far
I'm so far
You're like in the area
No, you can feel it. Yeah, that's big. That's a big explosion
And we all know the Italians flat it furthest
Exploded that's what made that that's what made those guys thought in the dynamite so sad
They went to heaven on their own
So good oh this is actually Portland news, finally. Okay. Two young men
rode about the harbor in a dowry, doery, doery. This morning, shooting or attempting to shoot
the numerous and festive goals, which helped to clean the harbor of the refuse from ocean liners and fishing vessels. Pro seagull publications are far gone. Yeah, they really are. How many they killed is not known,
but the warning voice of a customs official rang out through a megaphone to the lawbreakers
and had the desired effect. How long do you think it till we can go back out and just shoot Seagulls and like close
to land?
Do people see goes here in America as much as they do in New Zealand?
Are they this hate thing?
They hate it.
Why do people hate the challenge?
Because I steal your food.
Yeah, I think they.
Yeah, I think we always look at this.
I don't mind them. I never mind they're I don't mind them. I've never minded them
I don't mind any I truly don't mind any bird with people like fucking pigeons. I'm like what fuck
We're the invasor species
Like we're always like yeah seagulls are we're trying to have a picnic at the beach
It's like they fuck their seagulls fuck face you don't have gills
Although I have been mad at them when they laid by grad my my fucking cod for my fish and chips and flu
I like that wasn't fun. Hey, bro. What are you doing eating it down there? Yeah?
Your temp your it's bait
Okay, I did what they said I
Fish and chips who told who said what the basket on my head and I went down to the pitch
I put the basket on my head and it went down to the pitch Dave Dave as you're supposed to do as is
Tradition in who said this all the Scottish people where were you in Scotland?
Okay, that's a good answer at least finally one good answer
Is this really amazing tiktok series about the sky? I think in Scotland who would cook up these really elaborate meals
for seagulls, like he'd go to the supermarket and buy like the most expensive salmon he could find.
I love this. There's one seagull that would come to his door and beg for food. And over about a year,
he basically trained that the seagull would turn up in advance because it would get these like
beautiful meals on a plate. And then the very last video cuts and it's like a year later in the whole way. House is just surrounded by a seagull.
I'm not mad at anything. It's the wall away.
That's your next documentary.
For the angry you just then. I did.
Thanks. It's a real, I don't know if you're angry.
It's just like you're angry just then. it was a joke. That is so fucking funny
But you know what I love?
There's the guy who makes little meals for a hamster and you like set a nice little table and make like little burritos
Are like little steaks and then the hamster just like
It's like you don't know any better, but this guy's like perfect. Did you enjoy that?
He's like, food is really good. He's like, well, that was a burrito. He's like, food. I like food.
I love that. Yeah. It's really good.
David, how is your documentary tugboat going? Oh, boy, Dave, stop it.
Head on a hinge.
Hidden hinge. Everybody's head on a hinge, right?
Head on a hinge.
Everybody that attended Vogel and Demings Minstrels last night has been asked for an explanation
of the wonderful feat performed by Dr. Oh, sorry, Mr.
O'Vill, the great Egyptian contortion, Equal Libreus from New York.
Okay. So we all know this is full on. We just just so we know right off the bat, there was,
this is cultural appropriation. And there was a man with the, he had some sort of paint on his
face, probably you cannot say an
Egyptian from New York in this era and make me think pure Egyptian.
Immigrant. Yeah. Okay. That's fair. That's fair.
Whether OVO is an Egyptian or whether he was born and raised in Harlem,
I mean, can we just say how validating this sentence is for what I just said?
Yeah. It's good. Yeah. It's exactly just said. His rubber neck act has caused more talk
today than anything else that was seen at the minstrels for the simple reason that no
one can just account for it. Don't get me to understand what they saw.
They can't at their minstrel show. This is just again, really great stuff all around here.
But at their minstrel show, the talk of the town was the New York Egyptian and his rubber
neck and his rubber neck. The young man stands erect on a table. I've done that. I've done
this. I did this a wedding and I did not make the paper. And when I was yanking at it, I said, this is called rubber necking
and nobody got it. It covers his head and neck with a handkerchief. He has then seemed
to give a sudden jerk of the head and he removes the handkerchief. So far, it's amazing.
Yeah, something better happens soon. He stands on his hands with his head hanging down.
Naturally, it couldn't hang up,
but that is just a figure of speech.
What does he do?
What is this guy's like?
I too enjoy fun.
Then he begins to flop it about like the pendulum of a clock.
Okay.
The shiver music shivers hard harder and Olvio dangles his head about faster.
Okay, so the music is going dungy around quicker.
Yeah, music he goes with the music, he goes quicker, right?
It's speeding up.
It actually looks as though nothing but the skin and flesh connected his head with his body
and the act is indeed a startling one.
So this is just gotta lose neck, it's loose necking.
If you're a reporter, here's your job.
Make me a reporter.
I was saying, what actually happened? This guy's like man, by the way,
he is another little confusing joke
that doesn't help the description.
But it was crazy man.
I cannot believe what I saw.
It was real.
And then I believe there were two heads,
but I'm not sure, just what happened.
What so he like, he was swinging his head
like back and forth like a penis. He's swinging his head quickly. That's it. Yeah, that's basically it. Yeah, that's what it's
how he really impressed by this. Really, he was really, really impressed by this one.
People were like, where's it? They all are. Yeah. And this was again, a dimensional show.
So, you know, it's really pretty cool company. A reporter asked Ovio how he did the trick, but he said he couldn't explain it, which meant he wouldn't.
Yeah, what?
Is this before people knew magicians policies?
He's breaking down what's happening.
This is the worst art in detail.
I'm not kidding.
This might be the worst article written
This is so useless was that he wouldn't cuz he couldn't or he couldn't cuz he wouldn't
He couldn't cuz he wouldn't he couldn't cuz he wouldn't right yeah
I really like that
I know I know
The reporter so how did you do all that?
I can't believe this guys this guy's a real pickle
Can you give me two hats? I know you have just one trick that you do
But can you give it away the I have one head and it's fairly empty. How did you do that?
He is not to be blamed either because he has a winner in his act and would be foolish to
give it away.
So he has to stand.
This is like when an idiot loves your stand up and you're like, okay, it really is.
You're like, okay, I guess as long as you're following me, that's fine.
A physician says that it is simply, so he went to a doctor, he went and talked to a doctor
at the report. He wants to answer about how he went and talked to a doctor the report.
He does.
This is good journalism.
He wanted answers about how he's fopping his head around so much.
The man wouldn't give me answers so he went to a professional.
This is great.
Great documentary.
This is a great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great,
interview the man.
Now I'm mad at you.
I'm mad at you.
I don't know why I why this David for doing that.
You mentioned this doctor. So what's the trouble today? Oh, I'm quite healthy. So I saw a fake Egyptian and
He's not real. He had pain on his face, but he did a handstand and his head clocked
Backwards and forwards. What do you call that? How did he do it?
Is it moving your head around?
He even knows we needed to move his head around.
It was full on like a pendulum.
So he clearly either wasn't his head
or he had some major problems.
How did he do it?
Can you, just so tired of trying to figure it out?
I'm a reporter.
No, I don't think you are.
No, I am.
No. And in case you're wondering, yeah, I asked't think you are. No, I am. No. And I'm open.
In case you're wondering, yeah, I asked him. He was a real cagey prick about it. He wouldn't tell me.
He blew this guy. So is it a story or is the story about the story?
Ask. He wasn't a clockman. You think I who did the story about the the girls flip their hands up and
it is the church. What did
they do? Did you ever get to
the bottom of that one? Tell
you this is just some wild
stuff we got going out at
that extremely racist event
we all attend every week.
A physician said it is simply a complex relaxation of the muscles of the neck after the doctor wanted him to go so bad.
He's like, yeah, he just, uh, he was really calm and interesting,
interesting. He was really calm, interesting.
Uh, really calm. Interesting. A relaxation of the muscles of the neck after the manner of snapping the
room. I also have a lot of blood in my stool. What is that?
I'm here. I mean, well, bring it up.
My stool is redder than brown, Doc.
I don't, the manner of snapping the wrist as practiced by the Del Sartin disciples
I don't know what just happened. Yeah, the doctor was
I mean the dog is on a throne. It's an absolute bullshit
Yeah, he does
This is cuz she look clear the afternoon appointments. We've got a rubber necking Egyptian
Egyptian guy comes back to New York and he goes man. There's a town of fucking idiots. You can I found Rubesville
Others declared that they got a side long glance at Oviu
And they say nothing but the skin and flesh held his head
on. They think he unhinges a joint or two of the vertebrae and then shackles it
together again when he gets through. It's a gruesome mysterious act. Anyway, you
can fix it. Okay. I'm coming back around a little bit on this guy. I mean he's clearly doing something that looks cool
Yeah, it can't go on for very long also
I'm gonna dismiss the taking apart your vertebrae
Exploration you know putting it back together. I gotta say I have seen I have seen though these performers
I think one of them might have passed away now, but they're a rajuo and they would perform and they would walk on all fours and their head
would just like be like this, but like down. They weren't doing a handstand,
they're on all the headwood, and they would swing like a pendulum. This is all
coming back to me. And it did look amazing. That was a whole act was swinging the
head. I'm gonna see if I can find out what their name was. I remember this
now. It wasn't easy, but it didn't make me think they've disconnected their
vertebrae. I just thought they've gone relaxed and they're just like flopping. You can flop
anything around. You can flop a wrist around. You can flop a head around. I don't know why they're
getting quite so worried about it. Well, it's 1899. Yeah. There's nothing going on.
Nothing. Okay. So they're called the Pierre I saw doing this was called Ossius
Leverant. I'm probably saying this wrong. O SS E US L A B Y R I N T. And they
have been working since 1989. And yeah, they do this crazy thing with their head.
And I do remember seeing it thinking this is kind of amazing. I mean, I'm sure if you really like work the, like stretch, you do a crazy.
Oh, okay, this is embarrassing because I know where I saw them now.
They're in, this is an embarrassing fact too, but I like to, if you've watched the shism music video, they're in that and there's a head
bubbling going on in that video.
And I think that's what this journalist saw back then that really fucked him up.
You're reporting on this guy's article is better than this guy's reporting on the show.
I like the Detroit.
I mean, I love journalists.
They won't leave the newsroom. You know, they'll, they'll, they'll, they won't even pick up the phone. This of journalists, they won't leave the newsroom. You know,
they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll,
they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll
they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll
they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll
they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll
they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll
they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, they Anyway, I would just like to point out what you described as a journalist who won't leave the office and doesn't pick up the phone is called a guy who makes stuff up.
That's a, there's no truth.
I just feel a lot of people do that now.
I feel there's a lot of people that aren't out and about.
They just like stuck at a desk.
Yeah.
So I like this guy.
I like that he got out and he booked that doctor's appointment.
He's doing a little bit.
He's doing a little bit.
He's doing a little bit.
He's doing a little bit. He's doing a little bit. He's doing a little bit. He's doing a little bit. He's put me over a little venture such a weird article seeing a like seeing a magic trick
You don't understand and then writing an article about it. Yeah, that's really is getting me. It's the idea. Yes
Instead of like you're just like what's the story? It's like I don't know how he did it
Okay, so what's the article I just I want to try to
Try to get it out while I write it. You know, let me talk to a doctor and I'll get back to you.
I'm just...
I'm gonna literally type out what I think it might be.
And I'll go see a doctor.
I think it turned his neck into a balloon.
If it were...
I gotta be...
Every day of a cup of field review is just like a giant investigation
I'm always doing it and no one knows just like
Every magic trick is like an article. Well, he was suddenly upon a beach.
I talked to a lifeguard and he doesn't know what happened
I like the idea of you sinking in like the New York Times is all the resources until I could daily But this one I unpack a trick
My god, I've seen a man cut in half
So where did the rabbit come from?
It would be good. I would like to see a modern treatment of this the guy writing about the prestige all right let's talk numbers what the hell's
going on over there well I won't tell you my trick.
Will I talk to a doctor?
And he doesn't think you can do it.
Come at that!
Get through a little gear and you're right here.
I used to have a really good practice,
but now I just deal with my health.
Mostly this.
I'm Dr. Cricks.
I'm Dr. Cricks.

Ambulance missing
Okay, a man that was stealing ambulance would ordinarily be considered a pretty mean sort of fellow
But it looked as though that this is what somebody had done Friday evening
There was a death in a certain portion of the city
and an undertaker was called.
He left the horse and ambulance standing by the curb
and went to the house for the remains.
This is shitty.
When he started to come out,
he found that his outfit had disappeared as completely
as though the earth had opened it and swallowed it.
Well, it's just gone. I won't look it go. Yeah, I'll let it go.
To get this guy writing more stuff. Yeah. Yeah. What an image. So I talked to a
doctor and he said that I mean he can't fall into the earth.
So try to get to the bottom of that one too. This doctor is not happy with this.
Another horse has been swallowed by the earth.
Okay.
For a time it was thought that it had been stolen, but it seems that the truth of the matter was that the horse had got tired of waiting and so walked over to Taylor's stable where he is.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no by oats, it's not great. And what they didn't tie the horse up, they just leave the horse up there.
I guess they're in the rush to get in for the patient.
The horse is a dead guy.
Oh, dude.
Oh, you're tired of the horse, isn't it rush?
Now I'm really on the horse's side, majorly on the horse's side.
The guys dad, the horse, I might eat.
Well, they found him and took him back to finish his duties.
I had to go back to work.
Still, we found the ambulance.
It's running and shitting with its friends.
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
How many times do we have to tell this horse?
He's an ambulance.
You're not a horse, patches.
New telephone. ambulance not a horse patches uh... new telephone
oh whoa
yeah eighteen ninety nine a great many people are being attracted to
number eleven exchange street by the exhibit of the new england automatic telephone company
so interesting because i have no clue when any of this shit actually happens,
spoiler. And it's always so interesting to me, like, when this starts, like, you imagine
1899 if someone's like, you can call someone, I'd be like, what the fuck are you talking
about?
What is this? This is like, I'm going to go talk to a doctor. This is like when, um, when
a new, uh, like the iPhone came out. Yeah, right. It's one of these moments where you're like, what?
Or like the car phone? Yeah. A room has been fitted up. It's not a word.
Okay, a room has been fitted up as a miniature telephone exchange and the attendance are prepared to demonstrate all that is claimed for the new system. For this telephone of the
future, it is claimed that it will be operated so cheaply that it will be
within the reach of everyone. Your minutes roll over. By means of the system, the
necessity of a third person at the central office is done
away with for any subscriber can call or kill you wishes to talk with.
They're just they're just firing them.
They're not.
It's just Jesus Christ.
It's so scary.
I was scared.
I don't need that person.
Yeah, it's phone to phone.
Yeah.
We're going phone to fun. I love this.
This is exciting.
And now people are reading this like, my God, this is incredible.
They came up with a way to talk to your brother through space.
Maybe I can't figure that out.
When the bell rings, the subscriber knows
that he is wanted for it does not ring in his office.
So it's so great.
This is amazing.
This sentence when the bell rings, the subscriber knows that he is wanted for it
does not ring in his office on any other number, but his own.
Isn't that a metallic alert?
That it's so cute.
It is cute.
It is like historically cute to be like,
and then you know it's for you because you're bell rang.
Everyone has my bell.
No, no, no, no.
You have a bell.
So I only know when they have bells too.
Oh, so we all get a bell ringing thing. I don't
hate it. When I was young we had a farm and the farm phone would ring short rings if it was for a
neighbor and long rings if it was for us. What? Yeah, really? Yeah, yeah. So we knew it would be like
blink blink if it was like the neighbors getting the call if it was us would ring like a regular
one. Oh, that's wild. That is wild. Yeah. Yeah. How old are you? I'm 70. I'm
Jesus. I'm ready. You're so old. You're from a time when farm phones had different rings. I mean Dave I this is this is something
It's kind of blowing my mind Dave. Did you read this paper in 1899? I was there. Yeah
Well the minstrel shows thunder was stolen by a new york Egyptian
My god, I've seen the chicken that Egyptian
Did you do that saying when you were did you do that thing when my grandparents did it with a pick up the phone and they just say they're address
Oh, dude. Oh, no, that was no. That's my family in England. I remember
when you had to answer their phone, I won't even say the number, but you had to go. Hello,
city three three eight five one two four nine. Every time you answer what? And I go over. Yeah,
every time I go why? Hello city three three eight four one nine two nine. I'd be like,
why do you have to do that?
I get the British thing.
My grandma Monica was British.
It's just amazing.
That's how we, you answered your phone.
Just so they know they're in the right place.
Yeah, it was like, oh no, it didn't mean during that number.
I don't want to deal with 30 seconds of telling you
this is the wrong number.
Are you in or are you a? Is this for you or not?
Yeah.
Okay.
I would answer the phone always.
Hello, city 3D night.
Yeah, always.
That's so awesome.
So the thing with old people was sometimes
I'm gonna answer my cell phone like that.
I'm gonna answer my cell phone.
Yeah.
Hello, Garrett, I'd say my phone number.
Is that thing where old people pick up the phone as well, Garrett, and then say my phone number. Is that thing?
Old people pick up the phone as well, grandparents,
and they just sound genuinely terrified.
This is like, how long?
Oh, yeah.
Like, the fucking monsters called the most
thing.
Did I wake you up or is someone in your house?
Hello?
I can't talk.
Just so worried. Is this the murderer? Is this the murderer? I'm under the bed. There's two of them. What?

Derigo Telephone Company in the city, which is, which will use the automatic instrument. So this was just blowing people's minds. Yeah, it
would blow your mind.
It was a pretty big, it's a pretty big jump. Right.
It's like going from a computer to a, I got iPhone basically,
like, I was going to my pocket. Well, now because you were like I'll go run and tell them
They like you don't need to go run and tell them anymore. What yeah, all your run and tell them's are inside this bill
Okay, last one all right
It is not an infrequent site nowadays
to see people using typewriters in railroad cars.
Oh, just.
This is the magic.
I just want to go back.
I want to go back.
Yeah, it is amazing.
It is not uncommon.
I back to a time when a man had to use a pencil
and paper and a wagon.
But now life is different.
People are typing away in railroad cars.
We're peaking.
Small light machines are manufactured that can be carried around quite easily in an ordinary...
It's so amazing to be like convenient.
Well, I've got it all right here.
In an ordinary, I would say, especially build case and traveling men and others who are
obliged to do considerable correspondence while on the road are taking very kindly to the
typewriter.
So it's guys who got to work on the road.
It's like, you know, you're left-top, which never really mean and others. Who are the others? What women Chinese?
Yeah, Chinese.
That I would have never thought that they were portable typewriters. They've
run on, run on trains to do work. I would have just, they just sat there and
you know, this is like, be a little suitcase that you open up in your typewriter. Yeah. Yeah. But I mean, as far brought on, brought on trains to do work. I would have just sat there and... This is like, be a little suitcase that you open up and the tight brothers
just sitting in the middle of it.
Yeah, yeah.
But I mean, as far as luggage goes, you were like,
so heavy.
He's getting stuck around.
This is good.
This is good.
Yeah, like, like, like,
yeah, like if I have my backpack full of like,
all my things, I'm like, this is a nightmare.
We're like, I've got my clothes and my milk and my tapewriter. They find that they can operate it on the
cars when they are in motion without being disturbed seriously by the jar which would render it
almost impossible to write legibly with a pet. Oh I see. So that's the advantage because your
writings will squiggly whereas if you're just
tapping a key beautiful innate. Still let me know. I'm behind.
It'd be an errant punch. You're probably not a G not a F the fuck. Yeah that's true.
Oh you know it was a lot easier when you just had a squiggly mistype. miss type. Alright grandpa. You kids in your bells. You're different rings. It is getting to be
about as hard to select a typewriter as it is to select a bicycle. There are so many different So relatable. Oh, God.
You made it.
I mean, if I can bike around your typewriter, you're like, I'd read death and be good.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Unlike the wheels, however, the prices of typewriters have not yet been brought down.
So as to place a first class article in the hands of the ordinary
working people at a reasonable figure. Classic. It has been prophesized for some time past
that typewriters of standard grades would come down to $25 just as bicycles did, but it
is not apparent that they have done so they love this bicycle comparison so much and
Such a dramatic way of saying predicted. It really is it really is you didn't prophesy anything
I looked at the numbers and made a prediction when I went to a doctor and he thinks at some point
Holy fuck
Well, what a paper.
Uh, that was a lot of fun, David.
Um, you feel good?
I love this.
You feel like you got a few.
No, I love journalism.
I love these, the fucked up way we used to talk about things.
It is.
I mean, it's what's fascinating about your show.
It is.
It's crazy.
I'll, we used to talk about things.
It's fucking chaos.
Yeah.
No, I think it's always, it's so's so, what interests me always is like that,
where I'm like, that's what always gets me
where I'm like, we do that, but we do this,
but it's that.
It's the emotion, the intent,
the human version of this is the same.
Yeah, I guess.
And I guess, I mean,
because the art of writing a new story
for a newspaper is having like,
getting over the information
and the most concise, clear
way possible.
And yeah, sure at the time it was much clearer because you understood the language, but
it still wasn't.
The precision is not there.
Like it is a chaotic so many words to get out a very simple concept.
Yeah.
Really unusual.
Yeah.
What's a weird metaphor?
Word economy and yeah.
Well, what matters is you have five or six new
documentaries you're going to start making after this and we're very happy to help you
with that. You know I still have people approach me sometimes saying that I stole
tickled off you like that you found. Oh my god are you kidding? I went and made it. I love
