Full show transcript:
I was reading something where a guy's friend said, oh, I just bought this new mattress.
I bought a new mattress. And he was like, oh, yeah, where'd you get it? And he said, oh, I got it for so cheap.
And I bought it secondhand. And his friend was grossed out. He was like, never. You should never buy a used mattress. I don't want to buy secondhand mattress, no. Right. And so then that got me thinking about different used things that I wouldn't buy.
Things that I wouldn't buy secondhand. And I looked on Reddit. Yeah. And a lot of people are talking about how you shouldn't buy books used, but that you should. But, and I wish I hadn't known this because I buy a lot of used books.
Okay. Books carry bed bugs. Really? Bed bugs love to live and hide in books, particularly in the bindings and along the spines of hard cover books. Interesting. They don't eat the paper, but this is kind of where they like to hide. Now I'm kind of grossed out by this because I buy a lot of used books. Right, right, right.
I don't know that bed bugs are an impossibility in our climate, but I will tell you, I don't hear about them a lot and I think it's because of our lack of humidity. Okay. I don't, I'm not saying they're not an issue. And I'm also not saying that people don't bring them from other parts of the world and bring them around and then sell their books at a yard sale. You don't keep book sleeves on or dust covers on your books.
I hate those. I wonder if that makes a difference. You said they hide in the binding. Yeah, like in the spines and stuff. But also like I've never seen them. I haven't seen them either, but.
Because I feel like you, you would notice. So. But also they sit on a shelf. Like there, there's nothing there's like, cause don't bed bugs eat on like dead skin and stuff. Yeah. Like there's no food in the bookshelf. Right. Well, then I usually take like a Clorox wipe and kind of wash the outside of them.
Yeah, but you're not going to wash inside the binding. No, but I also like, I haven't seen anything. But here's what people are saying. They do. They bring home their books and then they put them in a Ziploc bag. Yeah. And then they put that bag in the freezer for like a week or two. Yeah, chill that book out. This book's got to chill out. So then I went, okay, I'm going to, I'm going to do that.
Yeah, I think that's fine. But again, I, I don't, I'm not saying that we don't have them in our climate. We probably do. But I haven't seen them on books.
Our own library does a book sale like every week and, and that's never brought up. Like I don't know how big of a fear this thing is. Okay. I'm just saying be careful. Everybody bed bugs are gross. Okay.
Yes. Use books can easily harbor bed bugs and their microscopic eggs because the insects are flat. They can fit perfectly into the bindings and between the pages of paper bags. Interesting. Okay. Huh. I did not know this.
I know. And I just looked up, uh, two days ago, three days ago, what day is it? Three days ago, Idaho bed bug infestation is on the rise of seven cities.
Here we go. In seven cities. Who wrote this article? News chunks. News chunks. Authentic. Where do you get your news from news chunks?
Come on. That is called click bait. My friend, you have been click baited because here's what happened. Somebody heard about this and they went, Oh, I got to write this article.
And I bet they wrote that article for every state and they're just getting the ad revenue from it. Okay. Well, I like that. Bed bugs in Utah, seven cities. Okay. Gross. Gross, gross, gross.
This was a story in 2024. Okay. All I'm saying is that yes, you think that our climate was wrong for bed bugs, but yes, we can get bed bugs here.
Well, I know we can. Okay. And this was from local news eight.
Okay. That's a local news source. And they did an article. When was this? Last April. Okay. So this last April 26 or April 25. April 25. Okay.
And they said that there is, there is a, there's a little bit of a rise in bed bugs. So. Who's their source? News chunks. Let's start today's show. I'm starting to think that people in the house don't appreciate my garden tools. I have a lot going on in the garden and I like to show it off, but the family seems a bit annoying when I go, Hey, who would like to join me for a garden tour? I think you'll find that yesterday afternoon when you invited us to take a garden tour, we all, we all went with you.
Yeah. But then everybody wanted to do their own self guided exploration and self guided exploration. Exploration is not the tour.
Is it? Okay. But here's what happened, Josh. Three people got bored. That's what happened.
Three people entered the garden at the same time with the tour guide and then went, what's going on over here? Okay. I've seen this. Okay. I'm ready. I'm done with the tour. And I went, you haven't even been on the tour. You walked in the gate and wandered aimlessly and didn't even know what you were looking at. I'll have you know, I took the whole tour. Yeah.
I know. I stood by the tour guide and took the whole tour. I was there. I took it.
Yeah. And then later, like hours later, you were like, does anybody want to go check out the garden? Because it was the night tour, which is different than the day tour. And nobody wanted to come check out the night tour.
No. So I went on the night tour by myself. How was it? And I sat down in the garden and I enjoyed the sound of the crickets around and I enjoyed my own quiet garden time. So though garden time. Yeah.
I'd like to share the tour with others. You did. Not at night.
So I took a picture and I posted a picture on the internet of my night garden tour. And it was fine. It was a fine time. We are all very excited about your garden. We all very much listen to you talk about your garden. I think we are being supportive family members. We are, Josh. If you think we're not being supportive about this obsession of yours, we really are. I mean, it's, I don't know how it affects you other than when you get invited to a garden tour. It's not like I bring it up all the time. Excuse me.
Show you pictures of it. Excuse me. Excuse me. How does it impact your day? When I say your garden has become quite your obsession, it really has. Have you seen it? I have.
A lot of times. It's a good place to be. It's a good place. Today happens to be fresh veggies day.
Hey. So maybe if you'd like to eat some veggies, that's a good thing to do. If you'd like to plant some veggies, that's also a thing you can do. I'm a little nervous about the high wind advisory today because I don't like what it does to my garden leaves, the leaves of my plants. It destroys everything.
Yeah. Makes everyone cranky. It's supposed to be real hot today too. So it is windy and sunny and temperatures will be near the record of 95 miles per, which was set in 1974. There's also low humidity and dry brush will result in an elevated wildfire risk. So there's a red flag warning as well today. Great.
All of the cool things. Why don't they just throw a tornado in there as well? Well the wind advisory starts at 1pm and goes until 9. Cool. So.
Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Windy afternoon and evening. Why'd you have to rain on my Tuesday parade? I didn't rain on anything. Gusty winds however. Oh, happy, windy day. Yeah. Hey, I mean the gusts up to 45 is a little bit different than when we had them like 60-70.
So I mean it's just an Idaho spring wind, spring wind. Cool. Cool. We get like five summer days. I know.
And all of them have been covered in wind. That's right. Cool.
That's my favorite. It doesn't make me cranky at all. I can tell. I can hear it in your voice. You're not cranky.
You're not bothered by the wind. Nope. Nope. Not at all.
Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Have you noticed that pickles have been kind of on the rise lately? Like there's pickles, everything?
Pickle everything. No. Pickle chips.
No. Pickle cookies. I've not seen pickle cookies. Oh, there's pickles everywhere. Maybe you're more sensitive to the pickle industry than I am. I have not noticed a lot of pickle things. Like I had some spicy dill pickle chips.
They were very good. Exactly. But I don't think they're a new product. I'm just saying there's, pickles are like on the rise. Oh, put your pickles in your Diet Coke. Try that. Put your pickles in your Dr. Pepper.
Try that. It's everywhere. Are people still doing that? They're saying that pickles are the pumpkin spice of summer. Well, so the Cieta Spicy Dill Pickle Kettle Cook Potato Chips, that's all one word for that product. Those are the ones that I had. They were officially released to the public January 15th of last year. So they're a year and some months old.
Yeah. Well, I feel like the uptick in pickles started last year because they've been around for a minute, but last year I noticed it was just pickle everything. They have pickle flavored popcorn.
I've seen that. Pretzels, protein bars, pickle flavored hummus, and frozen pizza. I've seen pickles on pizza lately. There's dill pickle crisp goldfish. They're spicy goldfish. I'm looking at their pickle corn nuts, dill pickle Cheetos.
See? Hip peas. You like those? They have a pickle flavor.
I do like hip peas. There's Pringles. They're pickled. There's something from the Quaker brand that is pickle flavored.
I can't see the package. Oatmeal? Pickled instant oatmeal. Mmm. Yum. Gross. Dill pickle mayo, tangy pickled burritos.
I mean, there's a lot of pickle things, but I just think maybe people are a little bit crazy for pickles. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Yeah. This is an article literally on CNN's website.
Pickle is the pumpkin spice of summer. Is that what you're reading? This is a piece. Scotty Andrew is the person on CNN's website about this.
This feels like, here's some other headlines from Scotty Andrew. Pickle is the pumpkin spice of summer. Bummer summer. Why do the top pop girlies sound so morose this season? These are headlines. Bummer summer.
Yeah. The article I say, I'm reading says, it's mostly Gen Z and they're craving food that bites back. There are people who are watching the pit and they're a small but vocal group. They're blaming Noah Wiley for creating creative decisions that they disagree with.
And so they're calling them pit bullies. What does that have to do with pickles? Nothing. Here's a headline from Scotty. Are pit bullies real? Diagnosing the newest fandom menace.
This is Scotty's job. We're talking about pickles. I'm telling you, the person who created this is not a trustworthy source of pickle craze.
She has a job to do and she looked at something she saw and went, I'm going to write an article about pickles being the pumpkin spice of summer. Here's what I'm telling you. They're just everywhere.
So I agree. I think they are the pumpkin spice of summer. Pickles are everywhere.
We just got a message. Pickle baked beans at Walmart. Well, pickle mania started with millennials who could purchase artisan pickles at Farmer's markets and whom pickling was a hipster-ish activity. This is, I'm not even kidding you. This is what's in the article. Reading directly from Scotty. Scotty's not wrong. It's what I'm telling you. Well, that's a good source of information.
I don't trust Scotty. Pickles? As the source of pickle knowledge. I think Scotty had a job to do and today it was right about pickles.
They are the pumpkin spice of summer. According to Scotty Andrew. I didn't. And the headline on the website. This is a move over pumpkin spice.
There's a new seasonal obsession in town and it's super sour. You know who wrote that? Scotty. Scotty Andrew. That is a Scotty Andrew type of thing to say.
I try to stay hip and cool and down with the times. What does that even mean? I don't even know what that sentence means. You are so hip. Clue me in on the deets of whatever it is you just said. What are you trying to keep up with?
I'm trying to keep up with. I've been hearing a lot about this new website. I don't even know if it's new. It's probably been around for 20 years. It's called Substack.
Okay. We've heard of Substack. It's not been around for 20 years but it's been around for a few. For a while. Yeah. It's been around for a couple, maybe three, four years, something like that.
Okay. What do you know about it? Well, it's designed for independent writers and journalists and people who share information.
It's a way for them to share information sort of like blogging. But they can have a better distribution system and they can charge subscription. So if you...
The subscription, everything has a subscription. Right, but this is for individuals. So it's not... It's like a Patreon where someone would offer exclusive content in addition to something they put out in the public space and give you a reason to support their creativity.
It's like that. Okay. It's for journalists and writers.
Okay. That's what I thought. But then when I went there yesterday, it was like a feed of... I mean, it just looked like... Like a social feed. And I was like, is this the new social media thing that we're all gonna get a part of?
Here's what I know. When a creator publishes a post, it is simultaneously posted to their own custom website and they can also have an email distribution system push it out to people that subscribe. So you don't have to worry about maintaining a complex website if you don't want to do code as well as an email newsletter, subscription thing.
So it kind of created a place for all that. But honestly, it's for people that do create blogs and those types of things, especially journalists. So people that are non-published journalists that don't necessarily work for a paper.
And some of the do that work for a website or a news organization or whatever can distribute their content. You know, Scotty, we were talking about Scotty Andrew, could move to Substack if she wants. She may even have a Substack. Do you remember LiveJournal? Yeah. I didn't ever use it. I was a blogger guy. I used blogger. Well, that's what LiveJournal was, was a blogging platform.
No, I understand. It was a different website. I didn't use LiveJournal. I used blogger. You did?
Yeah. And what did you write on there? I didn't know you had a blogger. I built you and your sister a blogger as well. Oh, yeah, we did have a blog. We had a blog.
We had a craft blog. Yeah. We didn't go anywhere.
Right. I feel like that was my fault. It was your both fault, both of you fault. Like, you guys were like, we want to do this thing, but you have no discipline. I spent a lot of time building graphics and logos and coding a thing and making it easy and giving you both access and you both never wrote anything. We did too.
No. I think we had a couple of, we had a couple of pages. We wrote a couple of things.
I think you each wrote one article the day that you had the idea and that was it. Yeah, that's the thing about it. You got to keep it going. Yeah.
You have to feed the internet. It's a thing. It was hard.
Yeah. I loved live journal though. I was reading all kinds of stuff from people on live journal.
I missed live journal. You do? Yeah.
There was a, there was. But that's what substack is. So you can subscribe to people's feeds. Okay. And they can charge a subscription or they can make it, you know, for you to be able to support their work or some people offer it for free.
I'm sure. But it's, it's basically for writing newsletters in a social platform that people can subscribe to. Got it.
That's what it is. Okay. I got it. Now look how hip and cool I am.
Oh, the hip and coolest. Okay. Is that it?
That's it. I just wanted, I kind of just wanted to know what it was, but it's what I suspected it to be, which was just like live journal. But new. But new.
And also blogger was better. Okay. So today happens to be all about the turtles. And I'm not talking teenage mutant ones, which are very cool. I'm talking about sea turtles. Okay. Today is world sea turtle day, which look, we've been cutting the soda rings that hold together six packs for a long time. Yes, we have.
Lots and lots of years. They put them on plastic bottles now. We buy like a six pack of diet coax in the bottle. You'll get them. We picked up, we have one in the fridge right now on those little cans of ginger ale.
I assume you're going to get out the scissors and snip away at that thing. Oh, they terrified. They traumatized me. Yeah.
When I was younger, they were kids. It was a huge deal. But it was less the turtles. I guess it was, they did get stuck on turtles, but also ducks.
Like it would get stuck around their neck on ducks. Yeah. And so forever and for always now I cut, I cut those up and I cut them into tiny little bits too. I'm like, I'm not, you're not getting stuck around an animal. Just stuck on the inside when they eat it because they think it's food.
Well, you know, that's why everything's full of microplastics, you know, because we keep doing this. I know. So I wanted to know about, we're in the landlock state. We're not next to the sea. So we don't have a lot of sea turtles to really concentrate on, but we do have one native species of turtle in Idaho. We do.
We do. It is the Western painted turtle. I'll look it up. Yeah. Western painted turtle.
Okay. And when it comes to helping out the Western painted turtle, we should prevent the spread of invasive pet turtles like the red-eared sliders. Also, re-home unwanted pets properly, avoid the sharing of wild turtle locations, and safely assist turtles across roads. Okay. Do not relocate a turtle.
Okay. Which is a big deal. You can't move turtles into different pond areas. They could disorient them and cause them to wander back into traffic. If you pick up a turtle and you move them to a different pond, you got to not do that. You want to help them cross in the exact same direction they're facing. So if a turtle's crossing a road, don't take them backwards.
Take them forwards. Well, that just makes sense. Right. Why would you take them backwards? Well, that's what they're saying. Don't do that. Just leave them alone.
How about? Well, but he can't be in the road to get run over. Well, if he's in the road, move him forward.
That's what I'm saying. I'm talking specifically about if you come across a turtle in a road. Well, okay.
Move him the direction he's going. Did you know that the painted turtle, the western painted turtle, they spend their days foraging and slow moving fresh water, lazy river. And basking on logs to regulate the body temperature. That sounds great. Doesn't that sound like the best kind of life? Sounds awesome. Moving in a lazy river all day and then being like, I'm kind of cold.
Let me bask on this log. I don't think these things are found native in like southeast Idaho. I think these guys are going to be only up north.
I think so too. I'm trying to find out where they are in Idaho. But again, I just said don't share known locations of turtles. But I'm pretty sure that, yeah, it doesn't tell me, which is fine. But the Idaho fishing game knows about them.
Okay. Well, good to know. They are spotted mostly in the panhandle. However, along the Snake River plain, all the way from the top of like up by Yellowstone, all the way down the Snake River, all the way to where it leaves the state and goes over into Oregon, they can be found in all of that water year round. Why are we talking about turtles? Because it's World Sea Turtle Day. But we don't have sea turtles. We have the painted turtle.
They have river turtles. Yeah. Okay. So just be on the lookout. That's all I had to say. Are you looking for turtles?
Yeah. Why did you put your hand up over your eyes so you could block the sun and look for turtles? Because I'm on the lookout. Okay. What we're going to talk about now is a camp that our daughter has been involved in.
She just went yesterday was her first day. I don't know the official name of it. You do.
I do. I just call it Cop Camp. Cop Camp. Cop Camp is probably taken by something. If I Google Cop Camp, I bet I, no, actually, if you Google Cop Camp, Bonneville County Sheriff's Office teen career camp comes up first result. Cop Camp.
Cop Camp. I knew it. I knew that's what it was called.
Yeah. It is generally a local summer program of academics hosted by police departments designed to build positive relationships between youth and law enforcement, lots of hands-on activities. They said they will do stuff.
This is just in the recap of AI on the Google search. It usually includes hands-on activities, including forensics, physical training, and safety demonstrations. Yesterday, they had a crime scene. Yeah. They had to go and then they had a big nerf gun war.
It was super fun. War. I think it probably didn't call it that. It was probably a tactical nerf exercise.
Sure. Nerf war. Call it whatever you want. At Cop Camp. At Cop Camp. Nerf war at Cop Camp. She got to do some pit maneuvers.
Yeah. Well, to be fair, she was in the car while the pit maneuvers were happening. Today, she's going scuba diving. I know. It's pretty exciting. She's going to be doing some actual shooting at a range.
Yeah. I'm so excited for her. She's having the best time at Cop Camp. We need summer field trips like this for adults.
We have said this over and over and over. I want to go try different careers. You want to go to Farm Camp? Maybe. Yeah. Go try out implements. Go see what they do.
Yes. See if I can drive a tractor in a straight line without GPS guidance. I might like to try that. You could milk a cow.
I know you want to. Farm Camp. Are there any other camps that maybe would be funner? Yeah.
Mayor Camp. No. Yeah. You get to go to meetings. No.
And you get to hear what all of the citizens in your city have to say. No. Mayor Camp.
That sounds like. But you get to meet with big officials like the fire chief. Ooh, fire camp. Fire camp. Fire camp. That would be fun. Yeah.
Yeah. Slide down a pole. Put on the turnouts. Turnouts. Turnouts.
Turnouts. The outfit. Put on the outfit. We need to go to fire camp. Fire camp. It'd be cool.
See how fast you can climb some stairs with all that gear on. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Fire camp. You could have, they could do like a control burn thing with one of those houses.
Yes. Spray the hose. I want to, I want to watch that.
Do you think you could spray the hose? I'll probably need some help. Yeah. You're going to need a couple people to help pull that thing down. Because it's pressure. Yeah. Pressure.
It comes out quick. What other camp? Oh, maybe fire camp could, could merge with EMT camp.
Yeah. EMT camp. Paramedic camp. Yeah. Medic camp.
That's what we'll call it. Oh, what about ER camp? Do you think you could hack it in an ER? No. Can't. No.
No. It's too much pressure. I run away. Uh, labor and delivery camp. Ooh. Baby camp.
Yeah. I could, I could be in attendance for that. Dental assistant camp. Barista camp. Yes.
See? Car salesman camp. No, no. Anyway, every is a cop camp. Cop camp.
Yeah. And it sounds fun. And I wish that I were at cop camp right now with her. Produce section manager camp. We do know an officer of the law.
We know a couple. And I said, hey, I want to do some pit maneuvers. And he goes, come on down. We'll do some pit maneuvers. That's what he said.
Yeah. He doesn't talk like that at all. Hey, didn't say come on down.
We'll do some pit maneuvers. In between looking for gold nuggets. What do you, why is he a prospector? He's not. He's, he's not even kind of a prospector. He's an officer of the law. That is true. He is very serious.
Gold mining camp. Hey. Yes. Okay. I was talking about that song just kind of ends abruptly. Does it end?
Done. I was talking a couple of weeks ago about how my doctor who I've had for a while left the practice. Right. And the practice was like, do you want to stay?
Yeah. And I was like, I don't know if I want to stay at the practice or if I want to. You met a doctor and you weren't stoked.
That was stoked. So you wanted to get back with your old doc. Yeah. And you had that appointment last week.
Yes. And I remember I said, like, I don't even know if my old doctor even wants to see me again. Remember I said that? Yes. Well, I went because you have a weird paranoia about people. Yeah.
Go ahead. So I went to my appointment with my old doctor and guess what? He was so excited to see me.
He probably just wants my money, but it doesn't even matter. He was so excited to see me and he was like, I'm so glad you came back. And I said, I'm so glad I came back. Yay. Good day for you.
It was a good day. You're welcome. I just wanted to tell everybody that. I just wanted to tell everybody that the doctor was indeed excited to see that you would come back to have an appointment. My doctor was not in fact, he did not leave the practice because he was like, I can't handle this woman. I need to, I need to go see our old doctor.
I need to get an appointment. Yeah. So if you could help me figure that out, that'd be good.
Oh, you just call and say. I don't even know where. I have no clue. So I don't even know. I'll tell you.
I know you will. And that's what that's the information I need. He said. I'm an adult man. I'll make my own appointment.
I just don't know who to call. Well, he asked me. He said, how's Josh? I said, Josh is good. You're probably going to be seeing him soon. Right.
Because when I said I was coming back, he was like, I want to go back. Right. So I'll give you the information, Josh. That's helpful. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Good deal. Do you think he'll be as excited to see me as he was to see you? Hard to say. You know it's a no. Why? Because no one's ever like, I can't wait to see Josh.
They're like, where's that Chantel? That's a lie. That is a total lie. There were many, many years where we were at different camps and things and people thought you were hilarious. And they were like, I would go up to them and I'd say, Hey, I'm Chantel.
And they'd be like, Oh, you're married to Josh. They were excited. Why did you, why did it sound like you were talking to youth? Cause that's what it was.
They were youth. Yeah. Yeah.
We know him because he can tie knots really fast. Wow. What a guy. Oh, funny. All right.
Well, Okay. I'll get you that information. Or make the appointment. No, you got to do it yourself. You don't want to play reception and make my appointment?
No, cause guess what? You're a grown, you're a grown boy. And I am not your mother. Okay.
Fair, fair, fair. Did you know that they're building a America 250 time capsule? So they're going to put one out right now that'll be opened.
I assume 250 years from now. Yeah. It's 900 pounds. What's in it?
They're trying to include something from every state. Great. What? What are we going to throw a potato in there for 250 years? I don't know what they're, what they've got from Idaho yet. Who's in charge of what we put in from the state of Idaho?
I don't know. Can it not be a potato? Look, I know we have famous potatoes.
I'm not everything's a potato. We are the gem state. Can we do something with the gem for like, uh-huh. Let's try it out. Can we just try to do some stargarden stuff?
It does have to be a potato. Can we do something with the gems? So this, the time capsule is going to be buried in Philadelphia on July 4th of this year. And it's going to be opened in 2276. 2276. Yeah. That's 250 years from now.
Yeah. So we will not be around. No, we will not. No, we will not.
So 2276. They are trying to get contributions from all 50 states. They're getting a contribution from Washington DC. They're getting contributions from the US territories. Okay.
And all three branches of the federal government. Okay. So like, notable items include a whale bone from Maine. Oh.
Who was in charge in Maine? It's a book. What is, hold on.
Listen to me. What is Maine known for? Whales. Lobster. Lobster.
And you know what happened? Somebody was like, can we not do the lobster thing? Can we put in some that's not the lobster? And they were like, well, we got this whale bone sitting down here and they were like, put that in it.
There's, it's a bone from an endangered North Atlantic right whale. Right? That's what it says. A right whale. That's what it says.
Somebody looked outside and went, now that's a right whale. Utah has a hundred historical citizen cards. So there's 13 coins. Wow. Eight documents, eight pins, two granite discs.
Hey Utah, leave some room for somebody else. And a booklet. Oh. What's in the booklet? Utah's like, well, we have this booklet. Yeah. They were like, what else we got kicking around here we want to get rid of.
Hey, throw this book in there. Arkansas has a diamond. Oh.
Arizona is putting in. That's it. Add diamond. It just says a diamond. The Arkansas diamond. Arizona has a diamond. Hey Utah, did you see how Arkansas and Maine took one thing?
Maybe slow your roll. Utah's like here. Have stuff. Have the whole copper mine. Yeah.
They were like, here we got all this stuff we couldn't sell at the yard sale. Put it in there. Go ahead. What else now? Arizona? Arizona, where did it go?
I lost it. Arizona has a Swarovski. No. A stainless steel coin featuring the full text of the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution using nano etching technology. You dumb.
I'll list. Here's our coin. California has an AI generated prediction of the future. Print it out. They printed out AI. AI, what will the future look like? They printed it and put it in an envelope.
Let me see if. But also, hey Utah, why are you putting so much stuff in there? Everybody's got one thing except Utah is like, rummage sale. What is all that stuff? I don't know. You named like 12 things Utah wanted to put in it. Okay. What? You're going to be so disappointed.
I already am. I don't want to tell you what Idaho is going to put in. So you said we hadn't decided. I just looked. Great.
What did we do? Is it one thing? And is it a laser etched coin? No. Is it a wooden nickel? What are we throwing in the pit? You're going to be so disappointed. It's a grown in Idaho potato branded chip clip. You got to be kidding me. It was included among the official state submissions.
So they have to submit stuff and then it has to get approved. That's the best we could find? Did the governor have it in his lunch? Where is this from? I don't know.
It's a piece of merch they give out at a golf scramble. Yeah. What are we doing? Yeah. Yeah.
We put golf scramble merch in the time capsule. Idaho. You got to be kidding me. I am not. I'm not even kidding you. We have amazing things in this state and we put in a chip clip.
Excuse me. Not just any chip clip. It's a grown in Idaho potato branded chip. Guys. Guys. Guys. I mean. Can we resubmit?
Is it too late? Arkansas put in a diamond. Utah put in a whole storage unit of stuff.
There's a chip clip. Come on. Did we miss the deadline? Did we forget? And somebody went, oh yeah, I was supposed to do that.
Will this work? Okay, good. Come on. No way. That's what I found out. That's what I know.
That can't be real. I'm going to look again. We got to resubmit.
We got to do something else. I don't even know. I don't even know who's on the board.
This is going to be the thing they opened in 250 years and they may not even know what it's for. Oh, hold on. Okay. This website is telling me that Idaho is contributing an official letter from the governor. Fine.
And then Idaho Star Garnet. Thank you. Okay. So that's better. Okay. That mentions nothing of the chip clip.
I don't know. That was some false information. You had to have found a spoof.
I must have. Okay. Okay.
There's no way we were putting in a chip clip. The Star Garnet is the official state gemstone. Correct. So that's great. Right.
I'm on board with the gem. And Idaho is only one of two places in the entire world where these are rare. That's what I'm saying. So that's great. Yeah.
And then. Where these are rare, where these can be found. It's rare. Okay.
Then there is a dedicated paper document compartment within the capsule where they're going to put all these papers to keep them safe. Great. Yep. Nice.
And the letter from the governor, from Governor Little, offers a message from 2026 to future generations of Americans. Okay. Fine. That's fine. Your governor now at 250, that's fine. Put in your note for people in 250 years from now.
Fine. Oh, hey, I also didn't know that Pocatello is bearing its own aluminum community time capsule at the Marshall Public Library. When is that happening?
And they are going to open that in 50 years. Okay. How about that? How about that? I did not know that.
Pocatello, that's pretty cool. They're doing that now? And they're going to open it in 50 years from now? Correct.
Okay. I'm so glad about the bag clip not being serious. That was too much. For a minute, I really didn't think that was serious.
I was going to spearhead the project myself to not submit a bag clip. You can't be real. I'm sorry that I led you astray. I mean, here's the thing I know is that there's a lot of fake news out there. You got to do some more digging to figure out what's real and what's not. I'm glad you did some more digging in real time. Oh, hold on, hold on. Oh, no. They're also, hold on, they're also including a 3D rendering of Abraham Lincoln's hand and an 1898 audio recording of the national anthem.
This is what the Library of Congress is contributing. Okay. Abraham Lincoln's hand. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then they have digital copies of Thomas Jefferson's rough draft at the Declaration of Independence. Okay. How about that? So there's a thumb drive. They've got stuff from Apple. They're including the Apple, an Apple iPhone. Okay. And Coca-Cola's got some stuff in there. So. I wish we weren't putting brands in there. Oh, Josh. It would be America without capitalism.
I guess let's throw in some of that. Last night, we're eating dinner and you said, no one listens to me. No one listens to me. Well, what did I say? What did I say last night that prompted that?
I don't even remember. Exactly. I wasn't listening.
Exactly. Because something had happened that I had previously said, you know, maybe if we thought about this, this wouldn't be the thing that would happen. And then the thing happened because no one listened to me say, hey, here's the thing. I don't remember for sure what it was last night. I was hoping you would have.
I remember. I remember the one from the weekend where I told youths not to play on a log because someone was going to fall into the lake if they were playing on the log. And I didn't want to have to deal with a hypothermia situation when we were backpacking. And I don't know, 30 minutes later, a sop in the wet scout walks into the camp. I fell off the log and I went, no kidding.
No kidding. And so last night in the meeting, they were doing a debrief of the camp out and we have a system we run through where we do like what are the things we need to stop doing on this camp out. If we do it again, what are the things we need to start doing? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And in the start, yeah, in the start, stop, continue, recap of the thing in the start, it said start listening to Josh.
And I went, no kidding. Sometimes my brain sees the future. You don't remember what you told me last night. I'm trying to remember. We were eating dinner.
Yeah. You pulled it out of the oven and you said, oh, here, that's right. It's hot. I said, this is hot.
And you immediately took a bite and then what? I told you it was hot. No, no, no, I listened to you. You didn't listen.
I heard. But you didn't listen. No, I didn't take your advice. No, and then you burned your mouth because I wanted to eat and I have very little patience. And I said, I'm just going to take a bite right now. How hot could it possibly be?
I know that it's going to be hot, but I'm still going to take a bite anyway. No one listens to me. And then I took another bite and I went, I listened. No, you heard. I just didn't take your advice. I was like, no, don't tell me what to do. That's mostly what it is. I'm like, I'm grown. Don't tell me what to do.
And then you burned your mouth. I'm going to do whatever I want to do. I know. And then you're going to go, I should have listened. My mouth hurts.
And then here's Josh. No one listens to me. No one listens to me. I've got good advice to give.
Yeah, you do. I've got things to say that might improve your day. You have a lot of things to say. That's my job is to say things. My job is to say stuff. So listen up. So then you shouldn't be offended if people choose to take your advice or not. They're the ones that have to deal with the consequence, not you. Yeah, but then I had to hear you go, oh, yeah, but I didn't, I just, I did that.
Yeah, I know. My mouth that got burned. I didn't want to hear that. I wanted to just have you go, yum, this is delicious. Nice. I'm glad I waited to take a bite so that it wouldn't scorch my mouth. Delicious. I'm glad I waited. I'm glad I listened to Josh.
Yeah, this is very enjoyable eating experience. Ever get to life that not listening to Josh. Listen to me. Right now, when I tell you that you feel the same when it comes to my driving or the way I put things in a cart, you're like, just put it in there. Just quit it. Why do you have to be so organized?
You know, yeah, you would just have to put everything so nice and neat in the cart. I'm like, I don't just throw it in. Who cares? Guess what? You're going to throw it in a bag and guess what? You're going to throw it in the car and then you're going to throw it in the fridge.
It doesn't matter how organized the cart is. See? Ugh. You're a lot of fun at parties. I am. Who organized this food?
Why are the dips over here and the chips clear over here? Put them together. Would you rather this or that? Would you rather forget people's names immediately or forget their faces immediately? I do. I forget names so fast. Okay. Would you rather forget their names or forget their faces?
I would rather do this because I will never forget a face. Okay. I wish I was better at names, but like, I'm going to tell you a story from this morning. Okay. Did you forget my name?
Not yours. I know you. But we were playing our generations game. And I know that the winner's name was Wendy now. But when we got her name and continued to play the game, I had forgotten.
We wrote it down. I didn't have that pulled up. And so I felt bad because I couldn't say congratulations, Wendy. You won. I said congratulations.
You won. But I wanted to make it personal and I couldn't remember her name. We wrote it down. I know her name now, but I didn't in the moment and I was scrambling in my brain going, what did you say her name was? What did you say her name? I forget names so fast.
Okay, but that was within minutes. Sometimes I think we make a good team where we'll be somewhere together and I'll be like, I can't remember that. Oh, I have a strategy for that. Everyone has a strategy.
My strategy is introduce them to you. And I go, oh, this is my wife, Chantel. And they go, oh, hey, it's Jared. And I go, that's right.
I remember now. But if it's somebody that we've both already met, you'll be like, what's that guy's name? And I'll be like, oh, that was Jared. And you're like, that's right. And if I don't remember, I'll be like, what was that guy's name?
I'll make something up. Bruce. That's Bruce Wayne. You got to go, that's Bruce. Banner.
No, it was different. Bruce. She did Bruce Wayne. No, no, there's two Bruce's. It's the other one. Yeah, I know.
And we'll have that conversation. You're like, that's not it. And I'm like, yeah, it is. It's Bruce Banner. And you're like, no, it's Wayne.
I'm like, no, it's not. That's a different guy. That's Batman, not Hulk.
Come on. You love the Hulk. I don't love the Hulk. Worse, the superhero ever.
Oh, the Hulk is so dumb. Sounds getting pretty low because, oh, shut up. Hey, hey, hey, settle down. You need to calm your hulk emotions right now. The sun's getting real low, big guy. Take it down a notch. Settle down. Here, hold my hand. Calm down.
Big green mean guy. Okay, so you're picking, forgetting people's names? Yeah, I'm going to stay where I'm at because I will recognize a face. And be like, I would not like to just see someone and then go, hey, remember? And I go, I don't remember your face. I know.
That would be sad. Yeah. No. Mostly it's like, I know your face, but I don't know where I know you from.
Right. What is your face? Are you famous? Do I know you from TV? I feel like I've seen this face a lot. What is your face?
That's what I should start doing. I'll be like, I know your face. I know your face from somewhere. Say, I know your face, but I don't know your name. That's it.
What do you rather this or that? Have you ever heard of Mount Kwan's Plank Walk in Thailand? I have not. Go ahead and look that up. What am I looking at? What's it called? Well, it's Mount Ha-Ha-Ha-Shawn Plank Walk in Thailand.
Just look up Thailand Plank Walk and look at some images of this. Okay. What do you see? Okay. Some images you say? No.
No? What do you see? There's a mountain, a big mountain. And there's a...
I wouldn't call... I mean, it's a cliff. It's part of a mountain, but it is straight down cliff. And then what do you see? There's a small little plank. How many planks wide is that, do you think? Just one. Well, it's three. It's three boards. Not wide.
Three, two by fours wide. Okay. Do you see that? Yes. The plank is like... Yes. Three, two by fours wide. Yes.
It's very narrow. Yes. And it is hugging the mountain.
Uh-huh. And what holds it up? Couldn't tell you. Little posts that have been hammered into the side of the mountain. Who installed that?
Somebody. Now, let me tell you about a new movie that's coming out in September. It's called Fall 2.
No way. Deadpoint. Fall 2. Do you know I didn't like Fall the first movie where they climbed a radio tower 2,000 feet in the air because it made me visibly, like physically ill?
You did not watch it. That is one of our favorite movies. I watched with you. I couldn't watch the movie because it made me ill. I felt gross.
Yeah. I felt like I was going to fall in my own home. It was disorienting. It made me nauseous.
I did not like it. So Fall, that movie came out a couple of years ago. This new one comes out September 2nd and it is called Fall 2.
Deadpoint and it takes place on this narrow plank 3,000 feet up above the ground in Thailand. I watched the trailer yesterday. Mm-hmm. Gross. Did you show it to your daughter? Because she loves that kind of stuff. I mean, she likes watching people do that kind of stuff. It's insane.
She's crazy. I know. I'll show you the trailer here in a minute. Okay.
This is not for me. I can climb a ladder. I'll get on the roof. I climb trees as a kid.
I don't mind normal people heights. I'm reading some reviews. I'm on TripAdvisor and I'm reading some reviews. Of this plank walk? The plank walk itself and the view were great.
Yeah. Three out of five stars. Three out of five. That's not a high praise. Well, they're saying that you have to... He had some other complaints, but not necessarily from the walk itself. The process of getting your ticket.
I see. You have to get a ticket to walk the plank. Yeah, no thanks.
That's his complaint. Look, I will say that when you go do this as some sort of crazy high adventure, you pay money to go to Thailand and eat delicious food and then you're like, you know what sounds like a good idea? Let's go try to not die on this cliff. They do strap you in. So you're harnessed and they've got safety cables and stuff.
But no way. I will have spaghetti legs, I guarantee. And then you got all these people that are like, look how funny I am. I'm going to hold on with my hand and then I'm going to lean out over it. You guys are nuts.
It makes my legs shaky just looking at some of these people doing this. Have you been to Bryce Canyon? When I was little, I don't remember.
We should go back. They have like this observatory thing at one of the edges of the canyon and you walk into this place and you're just walking to think you're going to have a view and then it's got a glass floor and you're over the edge. My legs turn to just goo and I'm like, oh no. My body quits working. There is a major fight or flight subconscious thing that kicks in and I'm like, I can't move. There was years ago, I was in a haunted house and there was like a little thing of plexiglass so there was a small little ledge that you had to walk across and you couldn't see the plexiglass. It looked like there was a hole and then the wall behind you starts moving and so then you get pushed and I took a step because I got pushed onto the plexiglass and I went just like that.
That's the grocery store. Anyway. That was terrifying. I do not like this. I don't like it either.
I'm not doing that in real life. No thanks. I will absolutely go to Thailand. I will eat the food. I will hang out in Thailand but I'm not going to do the plank walk. I don't, I have no desire. Will you ride a rickshaw with me? Sure.
Okay. That sounds dangerous. Sounds fun.
Sounds like it'll be crazy. Why not? Okay. Yes.
That's on the ground. Yeah and fast. Okay. Anyway. Okay. The movie comes out early September Labor Day weekend.
It sounds like so. Okay. Show your daughter. She'll be all into it. Gross.
I'll watch it with her. Good for you. Let's wrap up the show.
Oh right. It's been a good one. Thanks for hanging out.
It has been a good one. We'll be back tomorrow. We only have two shows left this week because we are out of the studio on Friday. So we'll be back tomorrow for show number three. So for more fun and hijinks. Yeah. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Goodbye.
