Three Bean Salad - Five Wednesday Month Alert

Episode Date: March 30, 2022

No normal episode of Three Bean Salad this week (it's a five Wednesday March and we simply will only do four Wednesday episodes in a month because we respect the natural order of the universe), but if you want to listen to a new bonus episode you can sign up to our PATREON at www.patreon.com/threebeansalad

Hello. This is just a little message from us. Hello. To say there's no normal episode this week. No. No. But there will be next week. There will be next week. And we're also putting out an extra episode on our Patreon. Yes. So the Patreon listeners will get an episode this week, but you, dear non-patreon listener, we're leaving out in the cold. Well, it's a five week month. Yes, five week month. It's a five Wednesday month, which we don't believe in. No. No. So we're boycotting it. I also think whatever you're doing, you shouldn't go to work. Yes. Join the boycott, please. The sooner we decimalise the calendar, the these kinds of idiotic irrationalities will stop you. Yeah. Oh, it's a five day month

seen next Thursday. Or is it a, which it fourth Tuesday of the month, all this nonsense will stop once it's numerical and just gets bigger each time. It is currently numerical. Yeah. But, but more fully, fully numerical. So we just start on day zero and it's one, two, three and just gets bigger. Everyone starts on their day zero. So your birthday is your day zero. Yeah. So you'll have your own calendar that starts at zero. Yeah. Exactly. And if you're meeting up with a friend, all you do is you both say which day you're on in relation to your own day zeros. And which means, you know, when to meet up and little bonuses, if you deduct one from the other, you get the age difference between you. Oh, that's

good. So you're learning something about each other as well. So you've got more information packed into less. Yeah. There will need to be plug-ins for calendars so that people can put their, you know, deductor adapters into their diaries where they're meeting other people. That shouldn't be too much of an issue. How will the podcast schedule work? That will probably have to be in full pros, I think, because I do think that will handle the numerical system. It'll be very simple. Anyone, if you're not happy, if you're not comfortable around with computers and screens, Ben, it'll be very simple. As long as you've got an average size garage, you'll have room for the sort of paper version of a calendar. And basically, the days numerically

ascend in relation to yourself and your loved ones. And obviously, when they are all born, anyone else, it's a kind of paper. It looks like it's kind of origami-looking thing, isn't it, the calendar? It's got different flaps, and you press down on certain things, and it opens up the paper. There's all rice paper, so you can eat it as well, if you want. You can eat it as you get along. There's a series of candles and bells, right? There's candles and bells, there's gears. And it's using pop-up book technology. Just imagine if pop-up books were even more three-dimensional than they are. So you pop up, pop in, pop forward, pop back. There'd be sort of tunnels. You might have to tunnel your way through

to next week in order to write something down. Then just tunnel your way back out again. Being careful not to obliterate the previous couple of days that go before the engagement you've just put into your diary, obviously, tread carefully. You'll probably need some sort of special shoes to do that. But until that glorious day comes, we're just doing four Wednesdays a month. Correct. And this month is a disgusting, deplorable, five Wednesday month. Hate to see it. Horrible. Say no to the fifth Wednesday. However, we are putting something out on Patreon. Oh yeah, there's that. If you're interested in that, patreon.com forward slash 3B inside. Yeah, we're our own scabs. But we'll see all of you, Patreon and non-patreoners alike.

In a brave new April. In a brave new April, which we hopefully will be fully decimal. So it'll be for me. It'll be, I'll see you on, I can quickly work it out. Give me a second. I think it's the 10th centennial, isn't it? So for me, it'll be, hang on, time's up. There'll be teasing troubles at the beginning of this. Sure, there'll be a lot of this stuff going on. I'll see you on, I'll see you next 16,522, which for Mike, I think will be... Times four equals that. Times four. Oh gosh, I've revealed Mike's true age. We'll have to cut this.

You're not taking the moon into consideration at all, Henry. I've not heard the word moon, actually. What's going on? It's like you're living in a world without a moon. Where's your lunar denominator, Henry? Well, that's... You've got to divide the whole thing by the current tidal power. And add three harvests. Yeah, so we'll work on, yeah, teasing trouble, work out those little, there's a few little kinks in the system still, but we should have those worked out by the time we real meet again. If we haven't, just first Wednesday of April. See you then. Bye.
