Full show transcript:

Oh, Friday Easter weekend. How do you want to start? Um, I'll start by telling you a cool story. Actually, you brought this to my attention and then I just did some more research about it. Um, the, what's it called? The Great Salt Lake.

I could not think of the name of it. The Great Salt Lake. Oh, the Salt Lake? The Great Salt Lake. Yeah.

The, the formerly the Bonneville Lake Bonneville. Yeah, sure. Okay. Um, scientists found a layer of fresh water underneath it. It's fascinating. It is fascinating. It's like a giant aquifer of fresh water. It's huge too. Two and a half miles deep. Yeah.

And it could turn out to be bigger possibly than the actual Salt Lake. Which is unreal. That's crazy. And well, and here's, did you read how they found out about it?

No. So they found out that like fresh water was leaking up through the surface of that 2,000 miles or whatever you said, uh, was leaking up and it was causing underneath the Salt Lake. It was causing like these little, uh, like mounds of earth to kind of like build. It was building because the pressure's coming up. It was building all these little mounds under there and they were like, what is going on? So they started doing some research and they found out fresh water is seeping up into the Salt Water from underneath.

Easy. So yeah, they found a giant fresh water lake aquifer situation underneath the Salt Lake. I think it's so cool. It is cool. They are thinking that maybe the fresh water underneath can help restore the lake bed in places where it's cracking and creating toxic dust.

Yeah. Well, there's a lot of things that that water could be used for, including irrigation and you know, there's so many, there's such a population there that having a fresh water source right there is pretty miraculous. Like it's, it's really fascinating. It is fascinating. Um, and bond, if you don't know the history of Lake Bonneville and how we got the Snake River Canyon and the Boulder fields and all of that stuff, it's so fascinating.

Here's what I think. Do you know how Lake moves? How Lake moves? Yeah. There's ducks and they get frozen to a lake. What? And then they, they, no, no, no.

They didn't move a giant ice cube in the winter time with ducks. No. No.

Where did you hear that? Fried green tomatoes. That's not how lakes move. Yeah.

Come on, man. Ducks froze, but not all the way to their feet. And then they took it.

They took off. I don't know enough about physics to tell you there's a lot wrong with that. I know enough about physics to tell you there's a lot wrong. Uh, no, there's no way that they could lift off with a downforce on the thing.

They're stuck. I mean, have you ever seen it? You don't know. Have you ever seen what?

You don't know what that is. Have you ever seen ducks move in iceberg? Yeah. No. So you don't know?

Yes, I do. I do know that a long time ago there was a giant, giant lake called Lake Bonneville. And then there was some tectonic movement that created a way for the water to go north into the Snake River area. And it was a huge flood. Tectonic.

And it, uh, it created the Snake River Canyon and moved boulders like for miles and miles and miles and miles and eventually made it to the ocean via the Snake River. Wow. I'll eat that something. Thanks for the history lesson.

You asked for it. You can still see parts of it. There's the flood poured into the canyon. Really? It's fascinating. I did not know that. It's very cool. Very cool.

Anyway, enough about lakes. You ready to start the show? Yes. Among many other things today is Pony Express Day.

I'm glad we moved on from that. Like the car wash? No, no.

Oh. I like Pony Express car wash. I go there often.

I have the tag on my window. I'm talking about the Pony Express. The Pony Express? The Pony Express. Yeah.

The first Pony Express express ride happened on this day in 1860. And then, you know, we got better at it. I mean, it was a good system while it lasted. I mean, what's funny is if you search Pony Express, you get the results for the mail company if you really try. Otherwise, you get the car wash.

But the Express mail service used relays of horses and mounted riders that ran between Missouri and California. It only ran for 18 months. Oh, really? Yeah. I thought it was much longer than that. Yeah, like decades.

Yeah. I really thought it ran for a long time. It would take messages for them to travel from Missouri to California about 10 days. That's not bad.

By horseback. I feel like I'm getting mail in 10 days. That's true. These days.

I know. I ordered something and it's supposed to be here way sooner and it hasn't even shipped yet and it's driving me nuts. But it became the West's most direct means of East-West communication. Now wasn't there people that were like, we're going to take down the Pony Express and they would hijack the mail? Oh, I'm sure. Because, well, there were train cars of mail as well, right?

Yeah, they were probably called the Phony Express. Why? Why what? Explain the joke. Because it's not the real Pony Express. It's a fake. No, right. The Phony Express. All right. And on Halloween, they were the Boney Express. Oh. They dressed as skeletons.

And then when they wanted to stop and eat lunch, they would have Bologna Express. You've done too much. Okay. Well, anyway, Happy Pony Express Day. Happy Pony Express Day. How are we supposed to celebrate? Great question.

Couldn't tell you. Thank your mail carrier. Get your car washed. Why not? Hey, thank you, mail carrier, for not arriving by Pony. 10 days later. No kidding. It's also Walk to Work Day. No, thank you.

No, thank you. Like May is like Bike to Work Month. I've done that. I've participated in a bike to a month work.

What? Bike to Work Month program. That was kind of nice, but it takes longer to get places. And it's just so cold still. It was pretty chilly in May, but I was only riding what? Two miles? I was pretty short. Still chilly.

Yeah. And it's also, this is pretty cool, Find a Rainbow Day. And the idea here is that you look for and appreciate simple moments of beauty. And I think that's nice. I think that's nice too. Yeah. Hey.

What's up? Look over here. You found some beauty. Look at it.

Look at that beauty. I found. And here is some good news.

The San Diego Zoo brightened the day of some hospital patients around the world with a wildlife explorers channel. Have you heard about this? No. This is a 24 seven streaming service that brings videos of the animal kingdom directly to children who are too ill to leave their beds. It began as a local project in San Diego and has now turned into a global source of fun now reaching more than 400 hospitals across 12 different countries and bringing joy to an estimated 25 million young viewers every year. That's incredible. That's awesome. Yeah. They have live zoo cams inside enclosures.

Excuse me. And educational encounters filmed around the world. The channel offers a breezy emotional escape. They call it for patients who are battling illness and can't visit a zoo. And for a lot of children that are facing long term recoveries, these around the clock animal adventures have provided a much needed reason to smile and something to look forward to when they bounce back and start rolling through some of their old routines. But they have live cameras. So you can check out the giant panda cam, the koala cam, the baboon cam, the polar bear cam, penguins, hippos, the apes, the tigers, the platypus, the giraffes, the owls, the condors, they have the red pandas, the elephants.

All of these have live cams. Cool. Yeah.

They have some of them that were pre-recorded and some of them that are live. But that's really cool. That is cool. I know the sun's not up there yet, but I did take a picture of some of the tigers. I want to see what's going on in the tiger enclosure.

It's light there. No. This is pre-recorded.

It has to be. Because otherwise you would just be watching a waterfall all day. Anyway, and it's also night there still. Where is this? San Diego. Oh.

And they're an hour, like it's only like almost six o'clock there. Anyway, very cool thing. And you can take a look at the San Diego Zoo's website if you want to see some of those live cams. But that streaming service is being fed to hospitals 24 hours a day.

24 hours a day. Which is really cool. I like that. Really cool. So anyway, that's good news. Do you know how many hours the Artemis 2 has been in space? Let's see. 24 plus another 12 plus another three.

So 15 and a 24, that's going to give me like a 39, 40 hours or so. Okay. They had a little bit of a rough start. Maybe you have not heard about this. Okay. But like the rocket, the launch, everything went great there. Well, I mean, they had a couple of real time issues. They had, you know, multiple things happened before they could get to an open launch window because they were originally supposed to launch back in February. But you know, yeah, they got launched. Their problem was the toilet.

The astronauts weren't able to go for the first six hours of the flight. Okay. Here's how toilets work in space.

Okay. In zero gravity, air flow is what makes a toilet work. That's right. So when a fan broke. Is that what happened?

Yes. One astronaut had to use a backup bag. Oh, well, I mean, they have, they have a plan because all I heard was that the toilet had a controller issue and that it had a blinking fault light, but they were able to troubleshoot it. I didn't hear that anyone had any more problem than that.

I feel like we're getting a little bit glorified on the issue. I didn't hear anything about having to use a bag. I heard they had a blinking light. This is the fan broke so they were unable to use the toilet. I mean, it's a big problem.

It is a big problem. Six hours. I don't have that information. They couldn't use the restroom for six hours. Okay. Listen, I don't know if I would have been able to survive. Did you hear about the email issue?

No. So they have, they use Outlook on a couple of the computers for sending messages and stuff for email reports and things that automatically get generated and whatever. Anyway, they had two instances of Outlook. Everything has redundancy and the two instances both failed.

And so they had to remote in tech support to fix the computer miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles in space. I'm not getting my emails. Yes. Stuff was broken and it's an Outlook issue.

And I went, of course it is. Of course it's Outlook. Anyway, so yeah, Mission Control had to remote access the software from Houston and fix it. Isn't that crazy? Wow. That blows my mind.

Good job, IT. I mean, they're out there cruising around in a tin can and their IT is like, let's remote in and fix that email. We got to remote in and fix this and repair this. Now I did not hear, they were supposed to do, they were supposed to do the, what's the quick burn to start their trajectory toward the moon. That must have happened because I haven't heard that they aborted the mission. So they must for sure be headed that way. Yeah. Toilet plumbing problems, email glitches and apparently issues phoning home.

They've had a couple of struggles. But NASA did confirm the toilet is a go for use. So yeah, I like it when they say everything's a go. I like that. So where are we at right now?

We are at, I just read something. Some guy said, I don't care about Artemis too. And I said, this wasn't a direct response to us or anything.

But somebody said, am I the only one who doesn't care about it? And I went, we're going to space. It's always cool when we go to space. This is really cool. Artemis to right now is where there's the flight tracker.

That's what I was looking for. Okay. So it is not, it's, it looks like it hasn't yet fully made its big push toward. I think it's still doing another loop around earth.

Okay. But, but then it's going to do its course correction and use the orbit of the earth to kind of slingshot out toward the moon. So that's, I wonder what that feels like.

Well, I don't know. I think you probably have a little bit of a, like you probably have to be in your chair when they turn on the thruster, because you're going to get shop in a wall. Yeah. You have to push backward when the ship moves, I think, because you're in no gravity and then the ship's just going to jolt forward. Push it around. Yeah. So I think you got to be in your chair.

They hit the, the burst for a few seconds and off they go. Hmm. Yeah. Cool. Anyway.

Astronauts is cool. Yeah. Yeah.

As much as I knew about the launch, I know little about where they are currently. Okay. You haven't been keeping tabs, huh? No.

Rude. I, well, not as closely as I was to the launch. I'm excited when they get to the, we're going around the moon. There's like, uh, 40 minutes of no communication, just like in the movie.

Cause when they go on the other side of the moon, we can't communicate until they come back around and get earth rise. That's going to be cool. Isn't that fascinating? It's very fascinating. And why is there no communication on the dark side of the moon? Because the moon's in the way. Yeah, I know, but.

Because the communication that we use is quote unquote line of sight. So it has to, there's no, there's no way. There's got to be a better way.

Well, there will be when we get to land on the moon again in a couple of years and then we start building moon base and then we can relay communication from the moon. It's all part of the plan. Uh-huh. Okay. Right.

Got it. More moon stuff. Safe. Be safe. Guys and gal.

Okay. So, uh, there's a very well known shipyard in Belfast. Uh, do you know about the shipyard in Belfast? I don't know about the shipyard.

Okay. And I know, I know a lot of famous shipyards, but I've never heard about this famous shipyard. So there are dock lands where the famous Titanic was built.

Uh-huh. In Belfast, uh, which is, uh, in, in Ireland, right? Would you consider that the most famous shipyard or their, I would certainly say it's one of more famous shipyards. Now you're going to Google. Famous shipyards.

Ah, yes. The Hyundai heavy industries in South Korea, why are they considered the world's most famous and largest shipyard? It holds roughly 10% of the global shipbuilding market.

It's founded in 1972. Okay. All right.

Let's talk about this. You know, it's delivered over 2,200 ships. Isn't that something I think it's interesting.

It's the Hyundai heavy industries. You know, it's interesting. Everybody keeps their own little space, right? Like what your job, your occupation, the things you're interested in, your hobbies, you know, things that are happening in that space.

That's right. Like my sister could tell you every quilt designer, every fabric designer, you know a lot about the radio industry. Like people keep, we know nothing about shipyards. I'm learning, but the, the, the second biggest one is the Samsung heavy industries, Samsung, Hyundai, Samsung. And then Harland and Wolf.

Harland and Wolf is in Belfast and it is historically famous for the building the RMS Titanic. Okay. So that's what I want to talk about is the Titanic. Great. Because in Belfast, they did a drone show where they made the actual one to one scale Titanic out of colored drones, you know, drones with lights on them. Yeah. And then they had it sort of, I mean, it moved like a ghost ship. Fascinating.

Just incredible to see. It rose up from the sea. It lit up. It's got the red line on the bottom. It's got the big smoke stacks.

It moved forward out of the, you know, the dock area slowly and then sort of just disappeared into kind of a red, I mean, ominous looking disappearance. It's very, it's so wild. I watched it and I kind of got like chills. Like, oh, it's a little bit eerie. Yeah. It's pretty wild. Uh, so anyway, that was kind of a really cool art project.

I don't know who did that, but it's a one to one scale recreation of the Titanic. Uh, out of a thousand drones. Only a thousand? It took a thousand drones to do it. It seems like more than that. Well, that's a lot of drones. I know it is, but it looks like more than a thousand.

It's probably just the space in between and your, your, your brain makes up that space. Yeah. It's cool. Yeah.

Really neat display. And it was just like for a brief art. I, it must have been or, or maybe it's, uh, you know, symbolizes a day or something, but, um, the Titanic sank on the 12th of April, I want to say.

So maybe it's something to do with the, with the that I did a report on the Titanic. In high school. Did you? Yeah. Yeah, I did. Yes.

I did. Thank you. April 14th.

Oh, I was so close. 1912. Okay. So that's where the 12th came from.

Cool. So maybe it's just like a, a remembrance thing. It could be. Yeah. Really neat though.

Yeah. They're saying, uh, it's 114 years ago. Um, and they, they did this light show where the Titanic departed from, uh, you know, and then, and then from there it went to different ports, like the route of the Titanic, it began in South Hampton, England. It stopped in France. Then it went to, uh, what was known at the time as Queens down Ireland. And then it attempted to cross the Atlantic to New York city. Uh, and we didn't know what happened after that. What?

The door was wide enough for two people. We know the story. That's what happened. Hmm. Yeah. It's cool. The little drone usage is very, very cool.

But it is, it is a little bit haunting. Yeah. Anyway, cool. Uh, it's cool.

I don't understand the point necessarily other than somebody like the idea and they wanted to do in our project. That's all. Yeah. Maybe it probably has some significance.

I just haven't looked that deep into it. I saw the video and thought this is really cool. Where can people find it? If they want to see it, we could post it somewhere. I guess I'd have to download it and put it somewhere. It's on the internet.

If you want to see it, just look up, uh, Titanic drones. I bet you'll find it. That's what I would start with. Thanks for teaching us all how to Google.

You're welcome. I'm so cold this morning. It's cold this morning. What's going on? Well, okay.

Here's what happened. I did some laundry last night and I was air drying some things and I was like, it'll be, it'll be dry in the morning. And I, this is my outfit that I'm going to wear in the morning.

And I went downstairs and all of the stuff is still a little bit wet. And I went, ah, that was my whole plan. That's what I was going to wear. I don't have a backup plan. And you have no other clothes. Well, I went upstairs and got a different shirt, but there was a jacket, a sweater that I wanted to wear. And I picked a different shirt, but I was like, no, I'm wearing that sweater. I want to wear that because it's warm and it's cute, but it's still wet.

Okay. So I'm here and I was like, nope, I'm going to wear it. I looked in my closet.

I went, here's the thing. I was air drying downstairs and I walked up and down the stairs at least three separate times because I went downstairs to see if it was dry. It wasn't, I threw it back, went upstairs to pick out something else.

I went, nope. I'm going to go downstairs and see how wet it is. Went back downstairs. It's pretty wet. Go upstairs, see if I can find another sweater.

Nope. I hate all the sweaters. I want that sweater. Went downstairs, grabbed it. Said, I'm just going to wear it wet.

And here you are. It's draped over you, not dry all the way. No, it's so cold. Well, I did, I had it on the back of the chair and I was kind of just like swinging it around like maybe that would help it dry a little faster. I mean, kind of the, the arms, like especially the armpits and the sleeves are really wet.

This part, the part that goes on my back is nice and dry. So I've got that a little bit. Draping me. You asked if I had a dryer here and said, I have a dryer. My other job, why don't you have a dryer here? I don't know because no one here is doing their laundry. Man, it's so cold.

We have a dishwasher. Does that help? Yeah, actually. Cause it dries. I could throw it in there and put it on the dry. I don't know about that. I don't go in there. You don't even have like, I go, you don't have anything that blows air.

Like in a fan or a dry it, like if you go to dry your hands in the bathroom, there's like a space heater around here. Oh, why didn't you say that? I just thought of it. Bro, you're wearing two gloves this whole time.

It's the Rockies. Oh, I have a space heater. I wore a puffy coat. I've been chilly. So I haven't taken my coat off.

I know. I was kind of hoping that you would see that I was cold so that you would offer it to me. I heard you over there going, I'm so cold.

I didn't want to ask you. I thought maybe just maybe you might be like, I have a blanket out in my truck. Yeah, but that's cold. That's going to be cold, but it's dry.

So it'll warm up quicker. Yeah, true. You want my keys? You can go get it. No, listen, if you find a space heater.

I'll take that. I know that there is one. Cause I'll borrow it.

Yeah. And then I'll be happy. I'll go get it. I won't make you go get it. You can borrow it in just a couple of minutes when the person who owns it is here and you could say, Hey, can I borrow that? Who owns it? Who do I have to ask?

Next door. Oh, okay. He's going to make me work for it. And by that, I mean, he's going to make me say, please. Yeah. Pretty please.

And you know what he might do is just go, Yeah, no problem. Hmm. Maybe depends what kind of moody's in. That's true.

Justin on the Hawk. Yeah, it's true. You just never know. Maybe like, it's fine, but you have to go bowling. No, no, no, no, please.

Anything but that. You have to bowl over a 150 before you can use it. I'll be cold forever. But you'll warm up playing bowling. Even when I was good at bowling, yeah. When I actually wanted to be, I never got over a 150. Never? I think the highest I ever got, you know what?

Actually, I think I got to 160 once. What? I know. Right. Right. I'm impressed.

Thank you. And then I said, no, I don't like this. It's kind of boring. Let's just play for fun.

I don't care about getting a 300. And I haven't yet. And that's the way it's going to stay. Sorry, you're cold. It's dry out and warm up soon. I know I'm full on wear.

Thanks, dear. Is shaking it helping? Kind of. Okay.

Keep on shaking. We all know about Punch the Monkey, who was orphaned by his mother. And then they gave him a surrogate stuffed monkey.

That's right. For my Kia company. There was an orphaned baby chick in Iowa. Somebody found him chicken. Yeah.

All right. Somebody found him alone near a dam. So animal animal rescuers picked him up, grabbed him, took him back to an animal sanctuary. I'm trying to remember the name of the animal sanctuary.

Second chance ranch. Okay. Nice. And they set him up in an enclosure with heat lamps and feather dusters to mimic a mama hen. Feather dusters. Yep.

Interesting. He quickly settled in. He was like, yeah, this feels like my mom. Yeah. This is right.

Settled in and nestled on down and is perfectly comfortable with the feather dusters. That is interesting. I mean, you know, okay. And I would assume they looked around to find out like where he came from.

Like, I don't feel like a chicken just wanders off. I don't know that information. I've given you all the information I've had. I'm really confused actually. Okay.

About how the chicken was abandoned somewhere like near a river. I don't know, Josh. I'm just trying to sort that out. I understand.

I get what you're saying. And it just has- Are we sure it was a chicken? Yes. I'm looking at a picture. Not like a duck? No, it's a chicken. How did the chicken get abandoned by the river? I'm imagining this is somewhere like pretty rural. Are there houses nearby? Did they go look for the chicken? What kind of research did they do? Did they abduct this chicken?

Okay. He was rescued by the animal rescue league. So I'm pretty sure they probably are looking, continuing to look for the mother of this chicken. In the meantime, they picked him up and gave him a warm place with feather feathers.

I'm glad they did that. I'm just, I'm trying to figure out like I just don't see a baby chick wanderin' off. They found him alone. So I don't, I don't, I don't know the question that you're asking.

I know the information that I know. Do they look nearby for the rest of the chickens? Probably not. They probably stole it.

That's what I'm saying. They were probably like, let's take this chicken from this calvary. They said, no, that's different. It's not stored by chicken.

I think they found that someone found the chicken and went, there's this chicken out here by all by itself, this baby chick. We should help it. Yeah. But somewhere nearby is the rest of the chickens. Okay.

But they probably didn't see the rest of the chickens. No, I'm not accusing you of doing it. No, I know. I don't know why you're so hung up on this. The idea is cute. I just worry that the family's looking for him.

Really is what it comes down to. They're like, where did Billy the chicken go? His name isn't Billy. Billy the chick.

No. Where'd he go? Billy the chick. Yeah. And just in time for Easter too. Isn't that convenient? Is this a made up story?

No, I have a, I mean, it could be a made up story. The timing's pretty convenient. I mean, no, listen, it's springtime. That's when chickens are born. So I guess, I mean, they're probably born all year round for all I know.

I don't know a lot about them. I thought it was a cute story. I thought it is a great story. I mean, it's not that great of a story because he's orphaned and that makes me sad. But it's got quality. Like there's, there's good, there's good quality storytelling.

People that are helping. That's right. I like that. I like the feather dusters. I think that's good.

That's a good part. Okay. I just want to know more about the, where did the family go? I don't, I, I'm looking at two separate stories here and I don't have the answers that you're searching for. Right. It's cause no one asked the, the people in charge the right questions.

Do your own research. Like, did you wander around? Did you see if there were other chickens nearby? Did you call out, Hey chickens? Did you try that? I don't know what they tried. I heard, Hey chickens brings them near.

Did they give that a go? That's all I want to know. Just trying to solve the, solve the mystery. You should call them and ask.

Right. Did you try the, Hey chickens? No, hey, we didn't, we really didn't go back. You're the chicken expert, Josh. No, I'm not. Okay. Okay. So we just got an email and I knew this email was coming. I know. How did you, okay, time out because you're being awfully weird this morning.

Why? Like you were just looking around at stuff and I go, what are you doing? What are you looking for? I'm doing some research. Yeah. And I go, what's that about? And then I looked at the sheet and I saw that you had put down work Easter egg hunt. Question mark. That was maybe a half an hour ago.

More or more. Yeah. It was, it was, it was almost an hour ago.

And then we just got an email. Everybody at work. Yeah. It appears at last night, someone snuck in and hid 22 Easter eggs around the premises.

May the odds be ever in your favor. Yeah. How did you know about this before everyone else knew about it? Did you hide them or are you involved in the hiding?

How did you know about it? There's one behind me. There is one behind me. It's been there all morning.

I noticed it when I first walked in and I said, Oh, there's an Easter egg around here. And so I, you asked if I wanted cereal. No, I really was making breakfast, but I, I did look at it up close. Look at that. Look at that. I got a 3d dragon in my Easter egg. Look at that.

3d print action. Yeah. I'm going to have to go digging around. So I was trying to look around to see if there were more in here. I wish that I wish you would told me earlier because we could have been hunting before everybody else arrived. That's why I didn't. I specifically waited, waited because I didn't see another one in here, but I did do some looking around in some other rooms and I didn't see any, any other rooms. So they're, this one was pretty obvious.

Okay. For me, because I'm looking at you and it's right behind you the whole morning. And I'm like, that's been there.

Like the second we started talking, I went, what is that? Well, this should be yours because you found it. No. Yeah. You found it.

You, you got it. I know I didn't mean, I shouldn't have opened it. It was your egg. It's fine. You got it. I'll find another. Okay. I'll be fine.

Alrighty. That's your egg. So yeah, there is network egg hunt happening. Ooh, how fun. Yeah.

Ooh. I sometimes I'm the one that's in charge of games. And so it's fun when other people are in charge of games. Now are there 22 eggs because there are 22 people that work here? Oh.

And so the idea, she didn't specifically say, uh, there's one for everybody. Yeah. Okay. Well, I found mine. Good job.

Thanks. Is there one behind me? No. I didn't even go hunting for that one. I know. Sad.

You found you. Yeah. Yeah.

You said, yeah, like bugs bunny. Anyway, uh, Easter is Sunday. Happy Easter. Uh, I'm sure we'll talk more Easter throughout the show, but for now, the work Easter egg hunt is on. It's on. I gotta go find an egg. Okay. Big news yesterday.

What is it? Oh, this is big football news. Okay. Kurt cousins. Yes. Is now a raider. How do you feel about it?

Okay. Let's rewind just for folks that don't know. Kirk Cousins is the reason you got into football.

Correct. I would say our son Beck is the reason. Beck is the reason. Kirk Cousins was an effect of the cause.

Yeah. Because you wanted to kind of have a bonding thing with our son. He said you should watch the show on Netflix called Quarterback. You got into the brain workings and the background and the families and all this stuff.

Of Quarterbacks, Kirk Cousins spoke to you in a way you went, I like this guy. Yeah. He's a dweeb. Cute dweeb.

Okay. Like he's just kind of like this wholesome like, like he's a good dad. He's a good husband. Right. He gets his hair cut at great clips. Yeah.

He's shops at Kohl's. Right. But also is like hanging out with some really cool people and they give him like gold chains to wear and you go, what a nerd. Yeah. And that's, but that's an endearing quality.

It is 100%. So you really like Kirk Cousins. At the time he was quarterbacking for the Minnesota Viking. Correct. So then I was like, well, that's my team. And then he was there for about a year. Correct. Well, he was there. I started watching football. And then about three months in he towards Achilles. Correct. And I went, okay, cool.

What am I going to do now? And then he got traded to the Falcons. Correct. And I said, what do football fans do?

Do they follow their players or do they follow the team? And so then I kind of- But you had declared yourself as a Vikings fan at that point. Right.

And you like everybody else, Justin, Jefferson, George, Madison, all the other people. The coach. Yeah.

Kevin O'Connell. Right. Great. I like them. So I'm going to stick with the Vikings. That's what I decided.

But I was still rooting for Kirk Cousins on the Falcons, on the old dirty birds. Okay. So what they call them. The Falcons go through their thing. He's now released. They're going to have Michael Penix Jr. be their big name. So he now gets like pushed out.

Yeah. He's landed in Las Vegas as their quarterback starting. It's a five-year deal. Yeah. Which is a much bigger deal than he's received from a lot of people.

$172 million. Yeah. Pretty unreal.

Yeah. So here's everything I've read about him. So basically, he's going to serve, they're going to start him, but he's going to serve. The plan is that they're going to pick Fernando Mendoza, who's a top pick quarterback in the draft. Right. And so that's kind of their plan. And Kirk Cousins is kind of going to be a mentor to him. So he'll be the starting quarterback for at least one season while they're training this guy. Does this sound familiar?

Yeah. It's exactly what they did for the Falcons. This is exactly what they did for Minnesota with J.J. McCarthy.

It's exactly what they did. And then what happened was Kirk got hurt and then they had to move in other people. And then they had Sam Darnold and all that other stuff. And now Sam Darnold is in a whole different place. Sam Darnold. We're going to talk about Sam Darnold. Because he's a Super Bowl champ.

Is that why? Terrible when he played for the Vikings. Cut him loose. And then he's like, Oh, I'm going to play football now. Right. See how emotional you get about football.

Okay. So he's now in Las Vegas. He's wearing the black and gray. Like he's doing the raider thing. He'll be handing the ball to Ashton Janti, which is very cool.

And here's the other part. Vegas is so close. I know you can actually go see Kirk Cousins. I know. Wouldn't that be so cool?

Yes. So get ahold of Julie since you guys are friends. His wife. That's his wife. You're not. But get ahold of her and say, Julie, we're in the neighborhood, buddy.

I follow you on Instagram. We should have the cousins over for a barbecue. I would be happy to cook for the cousins. I feel like they'd be cool to hang with. I think so too. I think they'd have a good time. I think so too. So get ahold of Julie. So I'd have so many questions about the inner workings of football. Right.

Hey, Kirk, tell me. I'll do a fire pit. We can have s'mores. I feel like they're s'mores folks. Oh, yeah, they are. They're big s'mores peeps. Yeah.

For sure. And we can't tell anybody that it's happening beforehand because people get all weird. We can only tell them about it after it's happened.

So we'll set it up and we'll make it happen. I do know that in the off season, Kirk Cousins has been working on his inline skating. Which I also do. I know.

So I could inline skate with Kirk. We'll hit the green belt. It'll be a good time. Okay. And then we'll barbecue. Sounds great. I think it'll be a fun time. I agree. We'll show them our little town.

They'll be like, wow, this is quaint. And then, you know, because he's been in Atlanta and he's been in Minnesota. Now he's in Vegas. Like this town is nice. Yeah. They might be like, when I'm done with football, retire and be your neighbor. Wouldn't that be something? That'd be something. How about it?

And then you could be friends with Kirk and Julie, just like you've always wanted. I don't know. I don't know if I want to be friends. I just like to watch them from a distance. And have a barbecue. We're from a distance friends. But we could be from across the fire pit friends. I don't know.

You don't think so? It's a fun. I'm okay. I'd rollerblade with Kirk. I know you would. I know you would. Anyway, big football news.

Cousins, Kirk Cousins is now a Raider. Can we do something about the owner's haircut? Who is the owner? What's his name?

Bad haircut, Johnny. Wait, did the Raiders find a coach? They were out of a coach too, weren't they? Yeah, I'm sure they did. Didn't they pull... What's his name from Miami? Didn't he go over to Las Vegas? No, Clint.

No, no, no. Not as headquarterback, but he's there as like defensive coordinator or something. I don't know.

I'm not seeing that anywhere. All right. Well, we'll dig into it.

Okay. Anyway, Kirk's in Vegas. I was trying to help Beck with his IRS login the other day so he could see where his return was. And I use the IRS login all the time because there have been years we've had to pay and you go on and you pay.

I do it all of the time for years and years and years. And I log in, I help him log in and he has to put in some information, his email address, and then we get to a point where it requires him some additional steps. And he goes, nope, nope, I'm not doing that. I'm not doing that.

Are you talking about the ID verification? So, listen, I know why he's upset about it. And the reason that he's upset about it is because there are more and more and more online platforms, social media sites, Discord, if you know what that is, or if your teenagers know or your adult children know, he does gaming and so they can pull up Discord chat channels and then they can have communication during games. This stuff is like all over the place. But a lot of these websites have started using ID verification for age verification. And so you have to like upload a picture of your government issued ID.

And then he's like, but then they store these in these databases and then the databases get hacked and then everybody has my information. And so I appreciate that he's leery about it. Oh, absolutely.

Because he's looked into it enough to go, this is not safe for my identity. I totally agree. And I was surprised by the intensity of which he was like, nope, I'm not doing it. I agree with you. I don't want to do it. I'm not doing it.

And I said, hey, I know that you're hesitant to do this, but this is the IRS login. This is what they use. He goes, nope, I'm not using that. And I go, okay, well then this is the only way that you can check on your refund.

I don't know what to tell you. And he was like, oh, and then he did some more digging into it. And he was like, nope, I'm not going to do it. And I was like, okay, that's your decision to make.

But I was definitely surprised by the intensity of which he was like, nope, I'm not going to know I've done some digging. Yeah. And I appreciated it. I did. Right.

No, I think he's got his head in the right place. Like, not a lot of people know that. They like people fall for fishing scams. Oh, yeah. People like upload stuff all the time without thinking about it. Like I, I get it. But I told him, I'm like, dude, this is the IRS. This is the official IRS login page. And he's like, I know, but they're using this other company to do the ID verification.

Like, yeah, they're government contracted to do the identity verification for the IRS. Like, but yeah, no, there was no talking about it. And he kept doing a lot of research. He kept, it looks like they hold on to stuff for like 30 days or whatever.

But it doesn't say like, when they delete it or like how they remove it. I'm like, holy smokes. I know. And I was like, buddy, I, I promise you that I have used this particular website and this login for a lot of years and I've never had an issue. Right.

I can't promise you that it's entirely safe, but I can assure you that it's the official IRS website. I think that's what he was like. Nope. This is a scam. And I was like, I don't know. So he didn't log in.

Nope. And we don't know where his refund is, but it helps. Just keep waiting, I guess. Yeah. I go, go ahead. You can make a phone call. Yeah, you can call them. Go ahead.

Call the IRS. That sounds like a good time. Sounds like a good way to have a date, doesn't it? They're going to tell you, well, we're going to need to verify you. So we're going to send you this link to your phone and you can upload your ID. Be fair, there has to be a better way.

Right? Oh, I'm sure the IRS has never heard that before. There's got to be a better way. There has to be. There just has to be. Anyway, be careful with your identity.

You just never know. Good tip. It is a good tip. So I kind of milled it in for dinner last night. I said, I don't really want to cook.

No. But I know where we can get a good cauliflower crust pizza and still be a little bit healthy and we can pick like nice toppings and it won't be, you know, a million calories or anything like that. So we've got us a small pizza. I got a small one for Emery because she's just a cheese pizza person, which I'm like, hey, very, very Ninja Turtle of you. You know, that's cool. Nobody else in her house. Or Macaulay Culkin. Cheese.

Yeah. Kevin McAllister over here with the cheese pizza. And then, and then Beck is like, I want all the meats. And so it was cool because I was able to get small pizzas, which I think was great, but I was cleaning up and the cheese pizza had been left on the counter. And so I was putting that away. When I opened the fridge, I noticed the other pizza was not in there. And I went, where did that go? And I thought, well, we have the garage fridge.

I'll go check there. And I looked in there and it wasn't in there. And so then I, I thought, well, maybe Beck was still eating. And so he took it to his room or something. So I went and I said, Hey, did you put that pizza somewhere? And he was like, yeah, I put it in the garage fridge.

And I went, maybe I missed it. So I went back out and I opened the fridge and I went, no, it's not in here. And then I opened the left door, which is the freezer. And there it was.

I went, what? Why is it there? So I moved it and put it into the fridge. And then I went back into his room. I said, Hey, bud, did you know you put that in the freezer? And he was like, what? He's in the freezer, not the fridge. And he was like, well, I didn't mean to do that.

I moved it. I didn't know if he thought, well, it'll last longer. I don't plan on eating this right away. He's leaving town for the weekend. So I thought maybe he was like, I got to save this. I'll put it in the freezer.

I don't know. I got a long term save this. I don't know what happened, but I found it in the freezer.

It's now in the fridge. He just wasn't thinking. I'm sure he had his phone in his hand. I guarantee it.

And was like, put that away. That cauliflower crust is delicious. Yeah, it's a good pizza. And I actually think the small that you and I share, you do have, and I do have perfect size, perfect amount. It's good. And I'm allowed to get my toppings that I like because nobody eats what I like.

You get mushrooms on there and they tend to wander. Sorry. Not sorry.

I don't like that. Mushrooms, spinach, green peppers, red onions. That's perfection. Delicious. And then when it arrives, you can either put fresh tomatoes on it, which I like to do sometimes. You put on a lot of red pepper flake. Oh, a lot of red pepper flake. You did a lot of red pepper flake. Not enough, actually. That was a lot.

I do none of that. I would do like a buffalo sauce on there. I like that. I like a nice pesto sauce too, like a pesto drizzle. If they had roasted garlic, a lot of places don't have roasted garlic, but roasted garlic is delicious. So that's how you take your pizza, which is a lot of weird stuff, by the way. How is it weird?

It's a unique stuff. I like Hawaiian. I like pepperoni.

I'm simple. I like a sausage and whatever. You're like, no, I want these specific weird vegetables all together. Spinach, strange. No. Yes.

People put spinach on pizza all the time. It's good. You do.

Okay, next. Red onion I don't like. Grilled red onions couldn't be, nothing could be better. I don't care for them. I like the white and the yellow onions. I don't like the red. They're too much. They have to be red on the pizza because grilled red onions is so good.

So good, Josh. Mushrooms. Mushrooms. Gross. Delicious. Gross.

I like roasted red peppers more than I like the green peppers, but a lot of places don't have that option. That's fine. I'll substitute it. Green peppers. I like those.

Those are on my half as well. That's the only thing we can agree on. Is the green pepper? Yep.

Okay. I had black olive, green pepper, grilled chicken, and because I needed another topping to balance it out, I put on the ham, the Canadian bacon. It was nice. I like that.

Nice. It was super good. So I was happy. Proud of you.

Thanks. There were a couple of wandering mushrooms though. You give them to me. They were little, but they were hiding underneath parts of my cheese. Do you eat them?

No. I pulled them out. There were a couple of little slivers of onion too, and I went, get out of here. I eat those?

No. They were like the little red skin. They were like sad and shriveled. It was gross. I'll eat them.

No. They're so good. Rusted red pepper or roasted red onion? Grilled, I mean. I know what I like. Yeah.

I just don't know what it's called, but I like it. Anyway, yeah. So check the freezer for other stuff. If something's missing, I know where to look now. 100% it's in the freezer.

I got it. We talked about this a few days ago. I've been banned from bringing food from Easter. My sister said I wasn't banned.

You were uninvited to bring food. This, a couple of days ago, look, if you didn't hear about this, this is fantastic. Last year, for Easter, you decided you were going to make cornbread. And I was okay with you making cornbread, but you did not make cornbread. You made a cornbread casserole thing. It was delicious. That's, it was wet. It was pioneer woman. It doesn't matter.

Pioneer woman didn't make it. So it was, it was kind of a wet corn thing. And it wasn't great for me. I didn't care for it. I tried to bite.

It wasn't my thing. So we brought a lot of it home. We didn't bring any of it home. I threw it away.

You did? There. Okay. I don't remember.

It was a year ago. But anyway, the point is this year, you said, what can I bring? And your sister said, games, which is a non food contribution. And that's fine. Your sister likes to do the food thing. That's cool.

Yeah. I have been asked to provide a breakfast. No, no, no, no. You've been offered. I've offered you to bring a breakfast.

I've been volunteered to make breakfast. Because my sister and brother-in-law really enjoy cooking and they're good at it. And they typically like to do all of the food. And we just bring like, like my brother brings some drinks and maybe a couple of desserts. And my sister and brother-in-law really do the bulk of the cooking. And so in the morning, when we go to stay there, they're like, what do you guys want for breakfast? And so I'm like, I, you shouldn't have to be bothered with making breakfast and dinner.

Right. And so I said, I would really like to make some stuff for breakfast. Can I at least do some breakfast? And then you yourself offered, you're like, yeah, I'll take my blackstone, I'll make crepes, I can do whatever. Yeah, like I'll make food.

It'll be awesome. I've got some bisque off butter I need to get rid of. I'll make some food. It's fine.

Yes. I know. But you also like to show off your cooking. I don't, it's not showing off. I like to cook for people.

No, I know that it's not like an arrogance thing. I think you like being like, this is good. Look at what I made. No, I think I like to cook. Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that.

Yeah. And so she said, my sister said, that would be actually really nice. We like Josh's cooking. Is that what she said? You got invited to bring games and she said, we like Josh's cooking.

She said, Todd is great with Josh cooking. Uh-huh. Okay.

It gets worse for you. I know. Oh, I said, Josh wants to bring his blackstone and make breakfast. I said, I won't be cooking. Don't worry. Oh man. And she said, ha, ha, ha.

He doesn't have to do that. And then she said, Todd, my brother in law, Todd is great with his, with Josh cooking. Yeah, there we go. So, cool. So I'm, I'm making breakfast. You're making breakfast and I'll bring the games. Listen, I saw a couple of games that I thought were kind of fun. There's one where you do an Easter egg hunt, but you, you duct tape or tape the Easter eggs onto the adults in the family. Uh-huh. And then the little kids have to chase you to get them. That's fantastic.

Good luck. That could be actually very, very fun. Yeah, there are, uh, how many littles? A good handful. Well, what's, what's the cutoff age?

Uh, I don't know. I mean, there are some, some young adults that I don't want to chase me down because I'm, I don't want that. I mean, cause we have everyone from like three up to 16.

And even younger. We have like not even one. Right. They're not gonna have.

Good luck catching me. Not even one year old. You can't even walk. Yeah.

You're not gonna get, you're not gonna get any eggs. Yeah. Up to how old? 16. I think our daughter, Emery is the oldest of the under 18s. Okay. I think you're right. So if we're, if 18 is the cutoff age.

How to outrun Emery? Good luck. If we just do the dudes, like we just do dads. Okay. Hold on. Hold on. Add to it. It also starts with a hide and seek element.

So not only is it, you have to catch to get eggs off the people, but you also have to find them. Okay. So that would be you. If we're just doing dads, you, my brother-in-law, my brother, my nephew, my nephew-in-law.

We could, we could probably get. So there's five of you. Yeah. But we could probably.

We could rope back into doing. Yeah. That's what I'm saying.

Oh, that's right. So that's five? There's five of you.

And there's. Perfect. And so hide and seek first.

One, two, three, four, five little kids. Perfect. That is perfect. Good luck. You got to find me. And then you have to catch me. You are fast.

But I'm also good at hiding. And what do I get if I don't get found at all? I don't know.

I haven't come up with any prizes yet. It's gonna be hard to catch me when I'm in another town. What town are you going to go to? I don't know. Just getting the truck and start driving. You can't.

No wheels allowed. Can't find me. I'm not even here. Have you ever stolen candy from your kids' Easter baskets? I probably don't think so. Yeah, me neither.

No. Have you ever gone looking for Christmas candy that you knew you had somewhere and then it's missing? And then you walk around the house going, who ate my candy? And then somebody goes, well, that wasn't me. Have you ever had that happen? Me neither.

Never heard that. Sometimes I feel like the Easter Bunny knows that the kids don't like certain candy. And he puts the candy in the kids' basket anyway. And then I go, and the kids go, I don't even like this. And I go, oh, weird.

I'll have it. Interesting. That's interesting.

Like, I think the Easter Bunny knows that the kids don't like the Cadbury cream eggs, but he buys them every year. Puts them in there. Interesting. I learned some new stuff about the bunny all the time. Well, I think the bunny knows that.

But as adults, we don't get baskets. And so I think he just slips in there and they're like, this one's for your parents. The bunny ever bring you one of the big chocolate bunnies? No. I'm trying to remember, like, if the bunny ever brought a big chocolate bunny. And I think so because I think I always thought they were solid.

And I thought that is so much chocolate. But they're not. Hollow.

Which surprises me. How do they make them hollow like that? I don't know, Josh. You might have to watch a YouTube video. How it's made. First.

Yeah. The bunny mold is made. Then it's filled with chocolate. The chocolate is prepared.

Today on How It's Made. We can do that show. Oh, Josh. What? I just invented a new game. What is it?

We should watch that show. Yeah. Volume down.

And explain what's happening. I think that's fantastic. I know it is. I would like to do that. Yeah. You would?

Yeah. I think you'd never afford with my games. Settle down. That sounds like a good time. One, because I like how it's made. And so I'd get to watch. Because we have to watch and then do our description and then go back and watch it with the actual narration. Okay. And then like, that's not at all what we said.

You're never on board with my ideas. Yeah. Well, that's a fun one. Oh, Josh. Settle down.

I'm on board with your ideas all the time. What are you talking about? I'm writing it down. What does that mean? It means this is how I remember. Oh, okay.

Good deal. Exactly. For like a week ago, I did a would you rather and it was like, would you rather have chocolate broccoli or broccoli chocolate? Chocolate, right. And then we were the same thing. Yeah. You thought it would just taste the same.

Yeah, I would. It was going to be a broccoli stem covered in chocolate or a piece of chocolate with like a little piece of broccoli on top of it. It's still going to taste the same.

And I put it on the calendar to go home and try it. Right. And we have yet to do it. Right. But I think about it every day. You do?

Yeah. Why? Think about something else.

It's way more fun things to think about. Because every day I go, because I knew we had chocolate syrup and I pulled it to the front of the fridge. It was in the back.

Yeah. And I pulled it to the front of the fridge. So when I opened the fridge, I go, there's that chocolate syrup. You know, I don't care for chocolate syrup.

Yeah, I know that. I think it's kind of gross. I don't actually like it either.

Yeah. I like hot fudge. I don't like it as chocolate milk even. Okay. Hot take.

I don't like Hershey's chocolate, is why. Yeah. I don't care for it. Okay. Sorry. I don't like it.

Well, every day I see that chocolate syrup and I go, we got to try that chocolate broccoli thing. Just give it a go. You're there when you're thinking about it. I want you to do it too.

Why do I have to be involved? You can try it and you'll know the results. Oh, those taste different.

Both gross. You're never on board with my ideas. Never. Just this one. Just the how it's made one.

I like this one. Yeah, how it's made. Muted. Then we do our own narration. Look, we have made a lot of games to fill time. I know. And this one sounds like a good one.

I know it does. This sounds like a good one that we could do with people that would be annoyed. So like this weekend. Because they'll be annoyed that we turned on how it's made for one. Will they be annoyed or will they be highly entertained?

Probably not. But we will be. I know.

And that's the only thing I live for. Because there's going to be a gold rush type show on. And we're going to go, no, it's not this. Let me show you what we're going to do. It's in Alaska. And then we'll turn on how it's made. My brother in law loves anything Alaska related.

And gold rush. And so that'll be on. We'll go, you're not even watching this.

And then we'll switch it, throw on how it's made, mute it, and then go, the licorice is extruded from the grade. That's a good word. You're going to need that. Extruded is a word you're going to need in the how it's made. I don't think that's actually a word. Oh, it absolutely is.

It's a very mechanical name. That's how they make a lot of things. Extrude. Yeah. Thrust or force out.

Yeah. It's like Play-Doh. When you push Play-Doh through the thing that makes the shapes, that's extruding Play-Doh. Extrusion is a big mechanical manufacturing term. We're going to be extruding in our voiceover.

There will be extrusions. Okay. Yeah. There'll be mixing.

Oh, yeah. Things have to be heated. And one thing they'll do a lot of, and you'll hear me say this, they'll say, this ingredient goes in, this many eggs, this many whatever, this many whatever, and a mix of seasonings, because that's the secret part. And a mix of seasonings.

And then you go, oh, there's the secret recipe in the mix of seasonings. Anyway. I like this. I like this. It can be fun. I like it.

We'll do it. Okay. You've never stolen candy from your kids' Easter baskets? Negative. Okay. Same. I don't have a big suite to it. I'm good.

Same. Plus they hide them. They've gotten good about that over the years, haven't they?

I don't find candy these days. No. Would you rather this or that? Would you rather a weak old peeled egg or sun melted chocolate bunny from your car?

I have a clear decision. The bunny? Oh, yeah.

That's what I'm going with. I'll eat it with a spoon. I'm not eating that old egg. Oh, wait. Me neither.

Me neither. Ew, and it's been peeled. What if, what if. What if, what if, what if.

Okay, okay, listen. It's a hard boiled egg. Yeah. And you've peeled it and it's been rolling around in your lunch bag. Unpeeled, right?

Okay. And it's been rolling around in your lunch bag for a week. And so the egg is picked up some stuff from the bottom of your lunch bag. Would you eat that?

No. I don't want that old egg. This one's not old. It's like maybe hours old, not a week old. It's just hours old.

It's just been rolling around, unpeeled, and in your lunch bag. I don't know, dude. You're going no. You're going to say no. I don't want it.

All right. What if it's the melted chocolate? What if it's not melted, but it's old chocolate?

You know, the kind of old chocolate where it gets like white, it turns white? Yeah, that's fine. Okay, gross.

It's fine. Chocolate does that. It's not mold.

No, I know it's not mold, but it tastes, there's a foul taste to it when you eat it. Foul. Foul.

It doesn't taste like chicken. What are you talking about? Come on. You stop it.

Anyway, I'm taking that melted chocolate. Okay, what? No. No.

Put the brakes on. I'm going to get you to eat this egg. I'm not going to eat the egg. There's going to be egg on your face in one way or another because I'm going to get you to eat this egg. What if the egg is an ostrich egg? Would you rather eat an ostrich egg or an eagle egg? Why are you trying to get me to eat these weird eggs? No. I won't eat a duck egg. I won't eat a snake egg. No. Just eating the melted chocolate. Okay, okay, okay. No.

Would you rather this or that? Chantel, Chantel, Chantel. What's that?

Chantel. It's a pip. We have a pip? We have a pip. It's definitely a pip. Tell everybody what a pip is.

12 hours ago, the friends of Big Bear Valley cameras captured the two eggs. One of them definitely has a pip. A pip. So when the eaglets begin to hatch, they will create a small hole or a crack and then over the next few days to a week, they expand that from inside the egg and the pip is the first sign of hatching. Just in time for Easter.

I know. We have a pip as of about 12 hours ago. I just looked on the camera and it's windy there today.

It is. It was windy yesterday as well. Probably the same winds that we're getting here because, you know, big wind. I hope that tree and nest stay firm.

It will. They're pretty good, but we have a pip in one of the eggs. I'm so excited. I know.

Okay, I'm looking. You said 12 hours ago? Yeah, about 12 hours ago. Now, I'm not looking at the actual camera footage.

I'm looking at a post that was posted 12 hours ago. So I don't know when that all kind of comes together, but anyway, very, very cool. I'm trying to see the friends of Big Bear Valley as of 10 hours ago had not confirmed that it was a pip, but there's been no confirmed pip as of 10.30 Eastern this morning. They have still not said officially, but I'm looking at that thing and it looks like a whole full show.

I love it. Because it doesn't look like debris sitting on the egg or not. Well, here's kind of, I'm watching this the video right now. So yesterday we tuned in a little bit around the same time and whoever was in the nest. I don't know if it was Jackie or Shadow, the parents. Oh, they're both there right now.

Yeah, cool. She was kind of moving the eggs a little bit. She was moving some of the nesting around the eggs. Sure. In anticipation? Maybe. I don't know.

Yeah, I don't know. Or definitely in preparation. There's been a lot of new stuff brought to the nest over the past couple of days. A lot of new sticks, a lot of new bedding. So they're definitely getting prepared for some sort of activity. Yeah, they are. But man, is it windy today. I'm so excited.

I know. Big Bear Bald Eagle live nest cam. If you want to go watch, you can watch as well. Right now, one of the eagles just took off. I'm going to assume that was Shadow the left and Jackie is sitting on the eggs.

And that's what's going to happen for the next couple of days still before we get to see Eagle it. If Jackie's on the nest, Shadow, you better bring her a fish. And don't wait for her to ask you for it. You just bring her a fish.

You know what she needs. Well, hey, happy Easter, happy Friday, happy weekend. We will be back on Monday. Enjoy the weekend.
