Full show transcript:

Hey, uh, I don't necessarily want to spend the money because I don't have 50 million dollars. What? Uh, but somebody, an anonymous bidder, just bought the most complete T-Rex skeleton ever discovered. It was sold at auction yesterday for 50 million dollars. How uh I don't know.

I don't know how private people can buy this kind of stuff. It doesn't make sense to me. I feel like that stuff needs to belong in museums. Right. Where it's accessible to everyone.

I agree with you. This is a 38-foot-long fossil nicknamed Gus. It has 61% of its bones and up to 80% of its original body mass. And that got me thinking. This is one of the most uh complete skeletons it is like ever, and it only has 61% of its bones. What bones are we missing that we don't even know about? We're missing 39% of a dinosaur, and we go, that's what it looks like. I have a I'm challenging what a T-Rex looks like entirely now. Yeah.

The skeleton uh features an ancient bite mark on the top of its skull. Auctioneers were excited about the payday scientists are panicking that Gus will likely disappear into a private collection of some random billionaire, um, and it won't be available to researchers, which I think is really important, as you said. Uh so that's kind of what's happening. But yesterday at auction, someone paid 50 million. And then who's for a dinosaur?

Who's collecting that money? Like, is it who discovered the bones? Great question. And I'm sure one person didn't discover all of the bones. And then who says, who says, okay, I'm gonna put this up for sale. Yeah. I that doesn't make any sense to me.

Yeah, so we've had Sue has been in East Idaho. Yeah. Sue has been around. Uh Sue and Stan are Stan. Are the other uh fossils that are confirmed to be over 60% complete? So Gus, Sue, and Sam are the three that are at least 60%. And now Gus is going into a private collection song. Which is sad.

That is sad because I don't think that that kind of stuff needs to be in private collections. Yeah. I don't know how that's acceptable.

I get it. I get it. And that's something to be hot about. I am hot about it. Yeah. It is. You should for noticing. Yeah.

Make those dinosaurs accessible for everyone.

I want to see the other 39% of bones. Yeah, I do. Keep digging where you took up the other 61%.

But also, I'll come dig with you. I want to take for dinosaurs.

bones. I know. You want to find dinosaur bones. I really do. Yeah. Gotta take down that adventure. It'd be fun.

Yeah, except everywhere you dig for dinosaur bones, it's hot and dusty. So give me some shade. And a lemonade.

There's not lemon.

lemonade. Shade and a lemonade and a dinosaur dig. Hey, we got ourselves a jazz song.

Shade and a spade, because that's a shovel. See? And a lemonade. And we're digging for dinosaur bones. Yeah. Keep it cool. Hot jazz. Yeah, hot jazz. Alright, let's start today's show. You're just telling me that it was a little bit difficult to get going this morning. Oh, yeah. Yeah? Yeah.

Still is. I just told you I can't quit yawning. Well, quit it. I'm drying. I'm doing it. I mean, that's the solution. Darkest.

The solution is just to quit it. Oh, right. I mean, what? Do you have a busy night?

Yeah. Was busy.

At one point you said, and I'm trying to remember the exact thing. You're like, and then now it's time for bed.

It happened like in the blink of an eye. Yes, it did.

I don't know why. I don't know how. But it sure does, doesn't it?

Um, sure does. Listen to you.

I mean, look, it's the middle of the week. Uh, it was brought to my attention last night uh that it is the 15th of July, and we are halfway through the month, and I went, it's the 15th of July. It was just the 4th of July.

Yeah. How is it already the 15th? And it's halfway through the month.

Bro. How did that happen? That makes no sense.

No, it doesn't. Didn't we just watch a giant fireworks show? Yep. Didn't we just spend a day? Yeah. In the hot sun. Yeah. All day. Yeah. Yeah. What is going on? Time. It's crazy. It's out of control.

It is out of control. Time you're out of control. We're going to need you to check yourself. Yeah. Time? Check yourself. Before you wreck yourself. Check your time. Time.

Uh you and I have a bit of an adventure next week. So a week from today. Uh we will be out of the studio. Out of the studio. Which uh, you know, that's exciting times. It's exciting times. Uh we're getting close to like a big anniversary and stuff. And stuff.

Yeah. So we're trying to plan an adventure, which is which is always good. So that's something to look forward to, I guess. Maybe we could slow down the wheels on that. That's seven days away. Yeah, no. Yeah.

Slow down the wheels. You want to slow down the wheels until

just maybe let's not burn through the next seven days like uh like a crazy person. Maybe we just go go easy. Hey, time. Yeah. Go easy. Like I don't feel like I've had any time after work. And and Monday and Tuesday are usually busy. Yeah. But you know, the schedule's been all wonky this this week, but it's just been burning by.

I know. Like I put off the garbage cans last night. I went, it's already garbage day. Didn't I just do this? No, I did it last week. But I'm just like, isn't it like it's like right at right here again? Again? Yes. It's crazy.

How do you slow down time? Should we ask Google? Yeah.

How do you slow down time? Let's Research that really quick.

Because there's nothing better than us. Um real-time research. Yeah. I like real time research. Real time Googling. Yeah. Uh, you gotta add new experiences and practice mindfulness to stay anchored in the present. Oh. You gotta reduce multitasking.

Yes. And limit easy dopamine triggers like endless scrolling. Okay, that makes sense.

Tweaking your daily habits. That's all. That's it. Okay.

Well. That's it. Start managing your daily pace.

That's all you gotta do. And then time will be. slow. Slower down. Got it. Thanks, Googs. Yeah. Googs. Yeah. Thanks, Googs. Hit the Google machine. Jujal. You call it Juj. Sometimes.

Because the the G has a ju sound. Yeah. Like in GIF. Yeah.

What have we got to do?

Animated GIFs. We have been. Jujul. Thanks, Juju. You've been helpful. Good morning. All right. So for good news this morning, we're going to go back about a week here. July 8th. There's a traveler named Grace. She's sitting on her plane in Cleveland Hopkins Airport. She's looking out the window. She's kind of just getting ready to take her flight.

And she notices down below a very handsome maintenance worker on the tarmac. Ooh la. She missed her chance to hand them uh her number.

Oh. So she hopped on the internet. She made a post on Reddit and she said, Hey, internet, you think you could do some magic?

The post went viral. It caught the attention of airport officials who happily stepped in as Cupid to identify the mystery worker as Simon. Simon. So when Grace flew back from her vacation four days later, Simon was waiting at the gate with a bouquet of flowers and a sweet little custom sign for Grace. And the two have been texting constantly ever since. They've already put their official first date on the calendar.

Oh cute.

all the attention and good feelings from the encounter have inspired a stranger to offer her services as a wedding planner if they make it that far. Grace politely declined for now. She said, I appreciate the sentiment, but I was like, okay, that's a lot. We just met. Maybe give it some time before you start planning everything out. Yeah, girl, hit the brakes, girl. So uh yeah, that's what's happening. They got a first date out of the deal. We'll see how that goes. Who's the woman's name? Her name is Grace.

Grace's name is Simon. Simon. Yes. Sitting in a tree. Yeah. First day. Making it happen. Cute.

I was gonna try and see this post. Oh, they're adorable. There's a picture of them. Yeah. I'm gonna come look. All right. Just look up Grace and Simon. It's on people.com. Okay. Yeah. I'll check it out. It's spread clear that far. Ah, how fun. Cute. Yep. That's a cute.

Congrats on their first little date. Oh. That's good news. How many group chats are you in? Too many. Too many. Agreed.

Uh let me just take a gander really quick because that's a good question. Uh I mean, I have subsets of group chats.

Do you?

You have group chats, but then you have chats outside of group chats. What does that mean?

Yeah. That's like well, I have an old a whole office group chat. Yeah. And then there's a couple of people from that group chat that have created a separate group chat. That's crazy. Because it's something that like not everyone needs to be aware of. Gotcha. And so there's I think I probably have a couple of offshoots of that.

How many people have to be in the chat for it to be a group chat? I would say three. Okay. So I have go ahead. Right off the top, family. Yeah. And then I've got that's number two. That's gonna be number three.

But that's with all of the family. Because we have one with just you and me and back.

And we have one with you and me and Emery. So we have five offshoots of our family. Six, seven, eight. Uh that one's gonna be deactivated. Why? Nine, ten. A lot. I have I have at least just scrolling for just a few seconds. I know, isn't that crazy? Yeah, it's wild.

That's too many group chats. We just got put into a group chat against my will. I mean, I guess you always put into a a group chat against your will.

We went on a little garden tour, and there was an opportunity to take some cooking classes, and she decided to put us all in a group chat. Well, we signed up for that. I didn't know it was gonna be all a group chat. Yeah.

Well, I didn't either, but that's fine. Here's the thing about it though, is that like now that I'm signed up, I just muted notifications on that particular chat. Because here's the thing one person, the person who owns the group chat sending information, that's what I signed up for. Correct. Other people responding to the entire group.

I did not sign up for I did not sign up for the channel. So that's why I had to mute the notifications because it was I I was like, uh oh, this has potential to get out of hand. There's some folks in here hitting reply all. Yeah. And they shouldn't. Yeah. Don't reply all.

No, not everyone in this group needs to know that you're not gonna be able to make it because you're gonna be in Texas. Right. We don't all need to know that. Right. We don't even know you. Correct.

You could maybe share that info with just the person who has the group. That might be fine.

Even just the person who owns the group doesn't necessarily need to know that. I don't know. You're just not gonna pay and show up to the class. So there is that. She's gonna know.

There is that. Like you, oh, that person didn't book it. Got it. I understand. I think for me, it was uh it was it was this has potential to get out of hand. I'm gonna mute the notification so I don't have my phone going bram, yeah, because there's all these side conversations in a group that I only want the information to sign up. Like that's what I signed up for is the info to join the class.

I like that you said this has the potential to get out of hand.

It does. A bunch of people with the ability to hit reply all leads to problems. It does. It's the same in email. If you carbon copy or put all the addresses in the in the two line, and you don't blind carbon copy, BCC everybody, it creates a mess. It does create a mess. BCC everybody so that when they hit reply all, it only goes to the person who sent the email.

I often forget in an email to reply all when I'm supposed to hit reply all, and then I just hit it to the one person and I go.

Ah see, mine by default is set to reply all, but I did that intentionally because when I get an email at work, it's almost always four or five people that are involved in a project. So uh if I'm gonna hit reply, I'm gonna hit reply all.

Well, good for you. Unless I have like, hey, this is a thing that I need all of you to do. Please let me know when you've done it. I will manually hit reply to that one person and say this is done. Because I don't need everybody else to know my timeline.

None of their business. And then I'll watch as they all hit reply all, and I go, I've been done with that for days. You guys are so slow. And then I judge them. Wow.

Okay. Yeah.

So just know if I'm in a reply all situation, I'm judging you.

Okay, so there is a doctor in the UK, and she her name is Alexandra Adams, and she is the first deaf and blind doctor. Oh, wow. Mm-hmm. Would you go to this doctor?

Well, I mean, she can't be a doctor without having completed school. So I would assume she has all of the proper training.

Certifications for sure. be. To be a doctor.

Listen, my my grandpa was blind and deaf.

So your grandpa was blind to deaf and did all kinds of stuff.

Yeah, he had a wood shop. He played guitar. I mean, we communicated with them through lots of different methods. Like it it's not unheard in he's not incapable. Like that's I'm just curious if you go like this this was sore on my arm. Is it infected? And they go, Well, is it red? I go, Yes. Does it have uh some gross liquid coming out of it? Yep. Sounds like it's infected. Let's get you an antibiotic. Thanks, Doc. You know, I just I I don't know.

Um, she so she wants to specialize in geriatric care. Okay, cool. And then she used she uses adaptive technology, like a Bluetooth stethoscope. Oh that connects to her hearing aids.

Yeah, cool. So that she can do like her vital checks and all of that that she needs to do. And then she says that she has a heightened sense of her senses. Sure.

Like especially, The remaining senses, yeah. Touch.

So she relies on that, and she kind of knows what she's doing because she went through all the school. Right in death.

That's what I'm saying. Like uh, like I I'm super stoked that she's like making her way. I think that's great.

I know. I'm always amazed that your grandpa had a woodworking shop and he was deaf and blind. Yeah.

He knew where everything was. The guy was unreal. He could he could like feel a bolt and tell you exactly what size it was. He's like, ah, this is exactly 10 millimeters. Most of them were 10 millimeter, to be fair.

It's one of the most popular. Uh but you know, but he could. He could tell you like straight up, oh, you're gonna need a half inch wrench for that. And you're like, okay. And he was right every time. That's so cool. Yeah. I think that's so cool. Yep.

Did your grandma ever panic when he was like, I'm going to the wood shop?

Uh, they had like an intercom system between the two, so when he would get into the shop, he would turn on the intercom. That way she could hear if he needed something, he could he wouldn't have to like find the intercom to push a button.

He just would turn it on, and then she would have it on in the house so that if he needed something, he could just haul her. That's so smart. Yeah. And then uh and then they could, you know, communicate or whatever. That's so smart. Oh, it was cool.

I never got to meet him, and I'm sad about that. Because you talk about him a lot. Yeah. That's it. He had an a ham radio.

He was a huge ham radio guy. Big, big, big time ham radio guy. Cool. Yeah. Okay. So would you go to this doctor? You would? Again, I I don't need geriatric care yet. So there's that. Close. But hey, easy. Easy. Uh, but anyway, yeah, no, super cool. I'm I'm I'm proud of her. I think that's cool.

Yeah. So she says when she's inserting a needle for an IV, it's all about touch and feel. And she says that as medical students, they're actually encouraged to look away or close their eyes because the best ones are the ones that you can feel.

And so she was like, I got this. Right. I think it's makes sense. I mean, good for her. Yeah, I think it's cool. I think that I hope she doesn't have any kind of like discrimination along the way with people like I don't know. I might I might be like a little hesitant or leery about going.

Yeah, like I said, it would be if I was going like as a family doctor, it might be different, but where she's gonna specialize in something that suits her capabilities and stuff as much as it does, I think it's great.

It's good for her. Yeah. But if I was like uh a surgery, I'd be like, oh, I don't know. I don't know. A little hesitant on the surgery bit. Maybe maybe not.

That feels like the liver. No, spleen.

Yeah, that's a very big difference. You and I spent uh few days in San Diego a year or so ago. Uh it was a great trip. We had a really nice time.

What would you do if we went back and we checked into an Airbnb, and on the wall was a picture of us from that trip. Ew. Strange, right? Yeah. Yeah. Ooh's the right answer.

Uh there is a family who uh checked into an Airbnb for the first time in San Diego to find pictures of themselves on the wall. Ew. This video has gone a little bit viral. It's a picture of people swimming in the beach, and it's uh, you know, kind of just taken from up high, like in a building or something, and it's kind of just down. It's just a bunch of people swimming in the ocean. Okay. It just happens to be these people.

Those people, and they recognize themselves in it.

They did, yeah. It was a picture that was taken ten years ago. And so these uh women in this video are probably in their you know, mid to late twenties or so. And uh, and so they're like, that's our dad, and that is my that's our sister, and that's like, and they were able to like confirm it with pictures of the swimsuits they were wearing. Like they're like, this is bizarre.

I think it's less creepy when it's a group shot. Yeah. Like if it was just like a picture of like you and I just hanging out on the beach and it was like a clear shot of just us.

Yeah, like we were the stock photo. That would be strange.

That would be so weird. Right.

The family said it was their first time checking into the Airbnb, making the coincidence that much more astonishing. The family admitted they were spiraling at the odds of stumbling upon a picture of themselves in a home they've never visited before. So then you say so crazy.

Can I have a copy of this picture? Because I want a copy of this.

Yeah, right. You've got to reach out to the host and go, like, where did you get this?

Where did you get this? And can I take it off of your wall? Yeah.

Because I want it. Can I Can I just have this? Because this is my family's vacation ten years ago. Really, really crazy. Um, some people who checked out the uh video have gone full conspiracy mode. Um, blaming the large headron collider, CERN uh on the whole thing. They're like, ah, this is because of it's because of the large headron collider.

That's that's why everyone is a conspiracist.

Everybody's got a theory. That was oh, it's because the it's because of the timelines, everything's all mashed up. The internet's fun.

The internet is fun. We were just talking to our kids the other day about what if we are actually in a simulation. What if this is all just a social experiment?

Right. And then and that was met with well, this is a bad simulation.

Yeah, who's ever controlling this is doing charge. Terrible job.

Yeah, you need to you need to uh hit the reset button and try harder. Like, what are you doing?

If you've ever played the Sims, you have to get up their skill levels on different things. Right. Who was ever controlling?

But you also gotta keep them fed. Right. They gotta sleep, like all that stuff.

You gotta take them to the bathroom. Right. Who's ever controlling my sim, my character? Yeah, I could use some better skills. Oh, you're not working my skills enough.

You need to sit down at the computer.

Sit me down in front of that

piano Do the Do the job stuff. Yeah. You need to work on some improvement. I see.

Some art and some piano would be great. Yeah. All right. Well, anyway. Okay. Interesting.

That happened in San Diego. So next time we go back, keep your eyes open.

I'll every every place I go.

Is that a picture of me? Is that a picture of me? Yeah. I was here once. Yeah. So I know somebody's got a picture. A large head large headron collider. It's it's why.

I have a war. You have a war against the earwigs in your garden. But now I have a war with the potato bugs. Oh. I think that's what it is. Okay. They're eating my poppies.

The flowers, though, not the leaves. Correct. Something's eating the flowers on your poppies. What is that?

Almost positive.

Is that what the research you've done says?

Yeah, I'm not even going to call them a roly pulley. Because if you call them a really pulley, that makes him sound so cute, but I'm not going to call them that. Because now I'm mad at them. I never had a problem with the potato bugs until now. So could be slugs. Ugh.

Could be. They'll they'll eat uh the leaves. But nothing.

It's not the leaves that are being the flowers, but not leaves. Yeah. Okay. That's what I wanted to see. But uh, but not leaves. Okay. Uh let's see. They're not eating the buds, right? No. They're eating the the leaves, like the petals. Yeah. The flower petals.

So my my flowers open, and then they just get like picked apart. Like something is really eating. Them to the core. And now I'm too the core. Now I'm mad.

Uh it says deer?

pipe and hot squirrels. No. Not deer. Not deer. Okay. It could be squirrels, but I doubt it. Yeah. So it's either slugs or potato bugs. Again, I'm not calling them really pulleys, because they are not cute anymore. Now I'm just mad at them. Yeah.

They aren't eating the. Yeah. See, these ones look like they're just getting destroyed. Like when I try to look at it, like it's it's weird. Like it what's going on with yours is seemly atypical. Like it doesn't, it's not like a normal thing.

Beck gets mad when we kill the potato bugs because he's like, they're an isopod. They're cool. They've been around so long. I don't even care now. Yeah. Now I'm just like I said, piping hot. You're piping hot about it. Piping hot mad. So it says it like

I haven't seen aphids, but aphids will eat uh

I just

got my gardening friend says getting info.

Rolly pulleys like dead decaying matter. Yeah. Okay. So it's probably not that. All right. I'll it's probably slugs then. Settle down. Now I'm mad at the slugs.

The slugs usually eat the leaves, though. That's what's weird, is that they're eating the flower petals only. Hold please. Oh, you're getting more info.

Yeah. There's there's typing happening. I can see it. Okay. Type faster, Tito.

Uh well, you're gonna have to. I mean, look, we can set up the earwig trap. That's fine. Those things work. Yes. Um, I do think it's strange that something is eating your poppy flowers. I know. Um, but i if it's slugs, we'll just we can do that. We'll get some we'll get some slug traps. Uh a little uh actually a little container with some beer in it. That's what you have to do, and the slugs go in there and then and then they adiose.

We actually did that before. Yeah, we did that years and years ago.

Yep, so we may have to do or they make like sluggo pellets and stuff. But if you if you think it's slugs, we can get to the bottom of it.

Well, now I know it's probably not really polys. Right. I'll call them roller polies again. They're an isopod. There's so they've been around forever. Yeah. Yeah.

So if if you think it's slugs, we'll set up slug. We can set up earwig traps. I need to get new earwig traps going in the garden anyway. Okay. So I'm on it. Yeah. Because now I'm fighting a war. Oh.

This is a battle I didn't want to be a part of. But look, here we are. Here we are. Okay. Slugs. Why, yeah, yeah.

There's a lot of UH in the beginning of that word. S U H L U G H. Sulug. Sulug. Salug.

Get out of here, you slug. Sulug. If somebody asked you, hey, hey, how does Chantel feel about leftovers? What would you tell them?

Uh they're gonna depend on what it is, first of all. Uh if it's meat, she's probably out. Um, or it's gotta be like little tiny meat, or it's gotta be like part of something, and she's gonna pick the meat out. Uh chicken, especially.

Yeah, I don't do leftover chicken. Leftover chicken at all. Like even the next day. Like if we if I make uh like a nice pasta that's got chicken in it, it's really good. Um, you will pick out the chicken and you'll eat the rest of the pasta, but the chicken will be thrown away.

Oh, yeah. Uh is the same true if I made like uh like a bow tie with like a white cream sauce that had sausage in it. Would you pull the sausage out? How big are the sausage pieces? Regular. No.

Regular is not regular for me. Do you know how I make food? If it's okay, if it's a pea size piece of sausage, fine. If it's bigger than a pea size, forget about it. I'm picking the I mean it's not like a meatball. Uh it depends. Okay. I have to see the size of the meat.

Rule one is meat is gonna be questionable at best in the leftovers.

And that's next day. If there's something with meat in it two days. You're not eating it. No, it's done. That's dead to me. Yeah.

Now if it's I would say there's not a lot of stuff that is gonna make it past day one that you're gonna eat. Yeah.

Leftovers day two. I'm going, mm-hmm. Right.

You'll you'll pass on it. And I'm like, it's still good. You can eat this for three, four, five days. Have at it.

It's free for the taking.

I'm the only one that ever eats them. The kids don't eat leftovers ever.

But there are certain leftovers that I will. We went to Thai food on Friday. Right. And I still have leftovers from that. Yeah. But that's a curry. That's five. That's five days old now. But it was also vegetable. I know.

So there's no like meat. Okay. You just have vegetables and curry.

So I looked it up because I'm I'm questionable about it. Well, okay. It said typically leftovers shouldn't last more than three to four days in the refrigerator. I'm a day five.

I think that's true. I think So it's a bit iffy. you're close, but that's also a curry. I know, but then I looked at it. No meat.

I looked up specifically vegetable curry. Okay. And it has rice in it. Rice. Cooked rice can harbor spores, which can multiply after they've been reheated. Well, you haven't reheated them. Then, well, I will though. Okay.

Then the curry I have has coconut milk base, which spoils faster than tomato based curries. Oh. Then it's in a plastic container. Yeah.

And it's a breeding ground for bacteria. Oh man. I know. What are you going to do? I don't know.

What a problem. I'm going to eat it, is what's going to happen. You should. It's delicious. It is delicious. And I spent good money on that. That's what I'm saying. And it's just, it's just vegetable curry. That's right. That's what I'm saying. There's no meats in there.

Why are you patting your lunchbox? Like, it's okay. You can be a leftover. I'll eat you. Yeah. Stop it.

We're in this together. Curry.

No, come on there, buddy.

I just I don't want to waste it.

I understand. It's delicious.

I was supposed to eat it on Monday. Yeah. And then I got too busy and I didn't eat it. And then same thing happened yesterday.

And now look at you.

And now I'm five days in on my leftover game. Man. Which is too long for me. Yeah. I'm a one day leftover gal.

I would say the kids won't eat leftovers unless it's leftover breakfast burrito. They will eat that for a couple of days after I make that. If I make a whole bunch, they're like, yep, I'm still gonna eat this. I will reheat this and it's good to go. Yeah, our kids are leftover picky people.

I don't know why they get that.

Yeah, weird. I don't know. Not for me. I can tell you that much.

Did you ever, when you were a kid, go to any uh like over the hill birthday parties for like relatives? Yeah, yeah. It was a big deal, right?

Somebody turned 50. That was kind of the big thing, right? I thought it was 40. You think 40 was over the hill? I think it was 50. I don't know now. I feel like 50 is the over the hill party. Okay. Like where people get like real jokey and they're like, here's your you know, cake with a head stone on it and stuff like that.

They said I don't have a clear answer. It's 40 or 50. I feel like 50's the thing. It's most commonly associated with turning 40. Really? Is what Juju says. Jujil. We're still sticking with that. All right. Yeah, because it makes me like. Okay.

So Juju over here says that it's most commonly associated with 40 is being over the hill. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I disagree. I like 50 better.

Okay, well, regardless. I'm not over the hill. I feel like when we were kids, yeah. That was everything the adults were doing. There's always like an over the hill party, right? Like, oh, Joan is turning 40.

Joan's over the hill.

And my mom would go buy these big black balloons. Right. And she'd be like, Life is over.

It was always like a joke. Yeah.

It's a it's like a you're you're on death's door. Yeah, death's knocking. Right.

I feel like my mom was always talking about parties for her friends where they were turning 40 and that life, life as you know, it's over.

So 40 is considered over the hill. I just am blown away by that.

But okay. Now in our day and age, now uh like we haven't done that. You and I did a big uh party for each other when we turned 40, but it wasn't an over the hill party. Yeah.

I we did like a big 80s thing for your 40th, and then you did like a roast slash costume party thing.

But so this is interesting. The acts, the exact age that someone considers over the hill depends on who you ask. So I just said I feel like it's it's gonna be 50 something. Uh baby boomers often push the milestone of over the hill out to age 75.

Really? Yeah, they're going, no way, man. Uh if if you're a baby boomer, you're going over the hill's 75. If you're Gen X, you tend to view 62 as the over the hill mark. Millennials typically consider 56 to be the age when someone is quote unquote old. Isn't that interesting? Very.

Okay, so I was just reading um like 40s used to be considered middle age, but they're not considered middle age anymore because people are living longer. Correct, yeah. And so people are like, no, if you're 40, you're still you're still getting it. Yeah.

50's the new 40. I think so. Yeah. 40, 50, 60. Like, there's a ton of uh information on this. Like it is, it's a highly contested thing on the internet. When is over the hill? Is it 40? Is it 50? Is it 60?

How about it just needs to not be a thing? Okay, yeah. Like, let's just do away with it. Okay. I feel like it has been kind of.

Right. I don't need some sort of 50 year eulogy. No, no. That'd be fine if I didn't have that. I don't need a bunch of uh a bunch of people going like, hey, well, it was nice knowing you.

Yeah, sorry.

It's all downhill from here.

Yeah, you had a good life, but it's all gonna be trash now. Right. Yeah, I don't need that. I don't need that either.

Like I need I'm still uphill.

We're mid-40s and we're going strong.

I'm still walking uphill. There's nothing this doesn't feel like a downhill cruise. No, I'll tell you that. I think it should be the other way around. It's not a hill, it's a valley. I was coasting. And now it's like, oh, I gotta climb out of this trench. Oh no. I gotta get out of it. Can I get a push? Yeah. I've gone under the underpass. We'll we'll rename it. What? Under the underpass Under the... Instead over the hill. I don't like that either. You don't like that? No.

It's just not calling anything. Through the cave. Through the tunnel. No.

Oh, you're through the tunnel. You're 40. You're through the tunnel. I don't know.

We can rename it. What is 45 mean then? If you're through the tunnel at 40. Uh oh.

The tunnel's further away than it was five years ago, isn't it? Yeah, I know. Yeah. 50 feels closer. Or maybe you're in the tunnel and that's where you're working your way toward the light at the end of it.

You go, oh no.

Don't look directly into it.

Let me go back to the darkness. Yeah. Uh-oh. That's getting bigger. That's that's it. If you hear a train horn. Yeah, yeah. Start running the opposite direction.

Move to the side or lay down. I don't know the right answer. But watch out. That tunnel's about to get crazy.

You just had a breakfast sandwich because you've been eating. You go, I brought this breakfast sandwich because I'm sick of eating uncrustibles for breakfast. That's right. Well, and I said, Yeah, I know, because I've been eating uncrustables a lot too, because we are stuck with the food that the kids we buy for the kids. They're like, Yeah, I'll eat this. I know. And then they don't. And a freezer full of stuff. Stock eating it.

I got these microwave breakfast sandwiches that one of the kids was like, I gotta have that. I'll make that before I go to school or before I go to work or whatever.

And then they just sit in the freezer and I'm like, these are just sitting here. Wasted. What are we doing? I know. I got corn dogs, I got waffles, I got a bunch of taquitos.

I got just so much stuff.

of foods Hey, listen, you stock the freezer with what the kids eat, and then they quit eating it. I'm not gonna be going and like air frying up a corn dog. I don't think that's uh that's not on my to do. I'll do a breakfast sandwich, but I'm not gonna go fire up a state farm corndog, whatever they're called. State fair corn dog. You know what I'm saying. They too. I'm not into that.

That would be actually really, really hilarious.

You come home from work and I'm just snacking on a corn dog.

You do it at work. No.

Walk around the corn dog at work.

Hey guys, yeah, you gotta go into your meeting with it.

With a packet of mustard and the corn dog? Happy Tuesday. What no? Not that I'm not gonna be known as the corndog guy at work. Walking around with a corn dog. But you have to microwave it.

You can't put it in the in the air fryer or the toaster oven at work. You have to microwave it.

Well no, just put it in the toaster. Stick up. Just plump. Push it down.

No, you have to. Because if you put it in the microwave.

It gets floppy. I don't want that. I don't want that soggy corn dog. It's gotta be. If I'm doing it, it's gotta be good. Batter breaks open. Oh, yes, it does. And then you get that crack and you can see the hot dog inside. That's gross. I'm not gonna be the corndog guy at work. No. I'm gonna walk around, they're gonna go, hey, corn dog. And we go, no, it's not me. That is somebody else. I'm not taking that.

No way, man. It's only you.

I did the uncrustable. It was pretty tasty. They're fine. They were the grape jelly ones, which I've decided I don't like that much. I don't like the grape jelly. Why?

We have a whole huge bulk box of grape ones. They're not that good. Why don't you like it? I like the raspberry ones better. Have you had the Nutella ones? No, because I don't like Nutella.

They're so good. The raspberry ones are good. Strawberry ones are good. The strawberry ones were pretty weak. What?

Yeah, I like the raspberry ones best. Whoa. I've tried them.

I know I know. We've tried it. I haven't tried the honey one. I have not.

I might like that. I like peanut butter and honey.

Our daughter was like, no, I gotta have these uncrustables. I'll like them. No, you don't. No, you don't. No, you don't. No, you don't. I've eaten uncrustables. All you like is fruit loops. Yeah, our kids have a very bad. We've done a very bad job of parenting our kids when it comes to food. Why do you say that? Uh, they've just had a lot of processed food.

Yeah, like we didn't grow up on Velveeta. What are you talking about? We're healthy as a horse. What was those TV dinners? Yeah. Kids' cuisine. Yeah, oh yeah, I ate so much kid cuisine.

And hot pockets. Yeah, what are you worried about? We're doing a bad job.

Come on. Our kids haven't had a hot pocket. Yes, they have. Beck has. Everybody's never had a hot in her life. No, she hasn't. She's never had a microwave or oven chicken pot pie. Not once. How many of those did you eat? So many. Too many. So many. They've never had to experience that terrible crust. These are awful.

Yeah, those chicken pot pies were bad because you cracked open the crust and then you just ate all the inside, but then it wasn't very much. And then you just left the crust. They're gross. Yeah, the crust was awful. And then you are still hungry after. So you're like, well, I can have another.

Yeah, my freezer was full of those things.

No, I know. Mine too.

They throw them on a cookie tray. I'm like, oh, this is dinner.

It's gonna take forever. This is forever.

This is pre-door dash. This is what we did. Oh, we don't want to cook tonight. Chicken pot pies. Put the cookie tray out, turn the oven on. Here they go. Oh boy. Can't wait. Just what I was hoping we were gonna have. Frozen chicken pot pie.

They took forever to cook, too, in the oven. Do you remember?

Well, yeah. Do you know how long it takes frozen chicken pot pie to become molten lava? Long time. In And that gross thick crust.

You're right. I make a delicious pot pie from scratch. I know.

And Emory actually really loves it. Like they have incredible food options. Yeah, they do.

But then they'll go, No, I promise I'll eat these corn dogs. This will be a nice, healthy, not healthy, but a nice dog.

What we need is a box of three. And then they'll go, okay, that was enough corn dog. Yeah, I know. I don't need a box of 26 or whatever it is. Two dozen corn dogs.

Those corn dogs have been in there for I know. Years.

Not years. They've been in there for maybe like two months.

No way, dude. Yeah. I can't even tell you the last time I bought a box of corn dogs. Couple months ago. No. It has been way longer than that.

Oh no. They're gross, though. You have a smartwatch, right? Sure do, yeah.

Okay. What if I told you that you could get a smart temporary tattoo? What's that mean? It's a wearable smart device on your skin. Okay. No, I I'm following. Go ahead. It's a more reliable system at tracking your activity and biometrics than a smartwatch or a smart ring. Okay. Um, because the skin contact can easily be disrupted by sweat or by being bumped or rubbing loose if you're wearing something. Okay. So if it's directly on your skin, then you get a you get a better biometric reading. Okay, that makes sense. You can get like a cartoon shark or a flower.

Oh, they're they made cute designs is what you're telling me.

You actually have like a tattoo.

Yeah, a little temporary tattoo.

Uh it's a safe and reliable adhesive polymer electrode. Okay. It's 10 times more breathable in hot weather than normal medical electronics.

All right, but what do we but why?

Because it's better at tracking your heart rate and your brain waves and your muscle activity. I see.

I just I'm still like, I have a watch. Well like I understand the difference between it versus an electronic wearable, but I already have that. So why would I switch?

A lot of people are saying that it's it's it's better for especially children who need long-term medical monitoring. Okay, that makes sense. So instead of like a really big like medical uh sensor, it's like sometimes people have to wear large devices. Sure. You could just have like a like a Pokemon tattoo, okay?

Charizard. Chardizard. It's not his name, but a Charzard uh tattoo. You get this temporary tattoo. Yeah, get a Pokemon. tattoo and then it hooks to a device. No. It has to.

Well, it just reads out, it doesn't hook to a device.

It has to talk to something.

Well, yeah, I think it sends information to the device. Yeah. You have the tattoo. Yeah. And then it sends information. It's not attached to the device. Right.

So what's the battery situation? How's it what's the electronics in it? Couldn't tell you. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. What? So you're gonna have to put this on every day? This sounds like a great marketing ploy. We got this one-day use temporary tattoo electronic device. You gotta put it on 365 times a year, and they're four dollars each. And they go 365 times four.

No, like if you need constant 24-7 monitored monitoring, then you would probably have two or three.

This is what I'm saying. I have a watch I wear every day.

I understand, but for like a kid. I'm saying a kid.

Saying a kid. Okay.

You got a Pikachu Pokemon tattooing. Shards are you take it off, you put a new one off when that battery dies, you get that battery charged, swap a roo when the battery is charged. It doesn't make sense. It's a bad invention.

Why? I think it's a cool invention. Yeah. Yeah. It has 95% consistency. What is that mean? Before and after mild sweating. What do they consider mild sweating? Is what I'd like to know. Not what I do.

Smart temporary tattoo. I'm trying to learn more about this thing. I don't know.

Did everybody didn't anybody ever tell you when you were younger or like in your development years, teenager? I was once told that it was gross for girls to sweat. And that has stayed with me. Listen to me. That is propaganda. I know.

From the deodorant company to sell you antiperspirant.

Well, it was also that guy got that boy, that 16-year-old boy got bolstered into saying that to other women his age, other girls his age. And that made me feel terrible every time I would work out because I'd go, oh, I'm not supposed to sweat. Yeah, well. And then when I became an adult, I was like, oh, that kid didn't know what he was talking about.

I don't even see these smart temporary tattoos. I think this whole thing's made up. What's the name of the company? I don't think it's a real thing. I think it's an idea. They're still working on it.

Yeah, it's not even a real thing. Ten years ago, they were working on making uh some sort of smart tattoo that could remotely control your phone. Okay. Called smart body art. Okay.

That that was actual like uh electronic uh signal processing type stuff that basically put a microchip on your arm in a way. That's but that's not the same. It's not even close. Okay. I don't know. I don't know what you're talking about with this thing.

Well, you don't like it anyway, so it's true.

You're not gonna get it, I suppose. But if you could, what cool tattoo would you? Charlie Brown. I said cool.

Oh, I said Charlie Brown. Yeah, come on.

I just read that there is a town in Alaska called Whittier with a population of 270 people. All of whom 270?

Yeah, all of whom live in a one 14-story building that used to be an army barracks. Whoa. So then I said, is this true? And uh I found out yes, it is entirely true. The entire population, roughly 270 people, uh, live inside a tower, a single 14-story building. The structure originally built as an army barracks during the cold war. Barracks. What? Barracks. I said. Barracks.

Go ahead. It contains all of the town's essential essential infrastructure. The post office, the police station, the grocery store, the hospital, well, a clinic, a church, and a school. Because Whittier is cut off by harsh weather and steep mountains, the building serves as a self the building serves as a self-contained community. Yes, it does. To it survive the extreme isolation.

Now, Okay, so I've there are I've got some more intel. Okay, tell me. There are other residential living units, but most of the people live there in that one building.

Can you even imagine your entire town in one structure? Yeah, no.

Here's something else about this. There's a one-way tunnel that changes directions on a schedule and also has a train that uses the same tunnel and preempts all vehicular traffic. So if you're driving in, you have to look at the tunnel schedule.

Otherwise, you're gonna be stuck in the town until outbound travel is allowed again, or you won't be able to get into the town until inbound travel is uh available. That is really interesting. It is interesting. Uh yeah.

Have you uh like you hear about those stories of I mean, I lived in a small town, Burley was a pretty small town, but it was not 250 people.

But there was people who knew other people's business and small towns know other people's business. Now imagine your entire town lives in one building. No kidding. You know how much business everyone's gonna know about you?

This guy says a cool little town. No, it's a novelty to visit, but there ain't a whole lot to do. Yeah, shocking and not being able to leave whenever you want. Grubs people the wrong way, but nothing could be done about it unless you bought a boat instead of a car to skip the tunnel, which some people do. That's so crazy. Yeah, that is super weird.

I don't I don't think I could do it. Do you think you could live there?

Uh it also has a cruise ship terminal, which is one of the reasons so many people have even been there.

I mean, that I'm looking at pictures of the tower itself where everybody lives pink and it's big cream and turquoise and yeah. Holy Jamoli.

Yeah, it's a small little place. No, thank you. And it looks cold.

Yeah, and right acquaint right across the waters. Why toquas?

Why to Quasa Wada is a big mountains.

Yeah, glacier waterfalls. I know. Uh no, thank you. I mean, it's pretty. Like it is pretty, but it looks cold, and everybody in the town knows your business. Anytime you went anywhere, you'd be like, Chantel's going to the clinic again today. I wonder what's going on today. Yeah, oh. Hypercram Direct Chanteau.

They have to bring in dentists. Like they don't have a dentist in the town. Isn't that interesting? Dude, can you imagine? Yeah. I mean, I don't want to, but I can. Huh. How about that? How about it? I'm glad I don't live there.

Extreme isolation. Yeah, you think.

I mean, I'm sure there are people that are like, this is the life for me. I'm going. I'm not that person. I'm not that person. No. I need more than 250 people. And it's cold. And it's cold. And I need my own space. True.

You're up. You guys are all up in my business. Yeah, back off. Which one of us would you say is the bigger kid?

Well, I was a 12 husky, so I was a pretty big kid. No. I know that's not what you meant. You mean as an adult, which one of us is uh is also I've seen photos of you.

You were never a big kid. I don't know.

Tell that to my Kmart pants.

I don't know why your mom was buying you. That's key.

I don't either. I don't either. Uh, but that's what I had, you know. I wasn't wearing 12 slims, I'll tell you that.

I told you.

I think what happened is uh I had outgrown the the boys section. And it's that awkward, like you're too big for the boys section, but not big enough for the men's thing. Right. So the compromise is a 12 husky. I think that's what really happened.

Anyway, I think you're shopping in the big and tall store.

Yeah, yeah. The big and tall kids section. They're like, ah, this one, this one's not ready for the men's, but he's a big boy. So anyway, uh yeah, so that happened. But as far as like uh attitudinally, which isn't a word, uh, I would say we're pretty much on the same level.

Yeah, I think that we're one of us has to be the adult, and I think we definitely take turns. We're good, we're pretty good about being like, hey, uh, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna have some fun. I'm gonna be a big kid today. And you're like, all right, I'll take control. I'll be the I'll be the grown-up.

Sometimes I sometimes one of us has to be the business. Yeah, tag. Yeah. I'm gonna be the kid. Right. You be the adult. Well, even this morning, you're like, hey, I gotta run around and do some stuff.

Well, you work on make sure the kids are awake, they both have to get out and go to work. I'm like, okay, cool. Like, we just trade off, it's fine. No big deal. Sometimes work has to be done. Sometimes it's just a goof. Yeah. Tag. But as far as like just having fun and being kids and whatever, I think you're definitely a step above.

Yes. You appreciate the fun a little bit differently. Like I I like having a good time, but you're like all laying on a good time. Oh, absolutely. Right. Yeah. As evidence. Like drop of a hat. You're like, oh, dance party, let's go. Yeah. Like I'm like, I'll ease my way in. I'll work my way into it.

Oh, yeah, I'll canon bow my way into it every time. And you're like, let's test the water with one toe.

It might be chilly. And you're like, I'm already in. Where are you? Okay.

Sometimes I wish you were more of a kid. I know. Sometimes I go, nah, jump in. The water's fine. And I just don't know.

And then you go, you old fuddy duddy.

Yeah. And then you're like, I didn't even bring my swim trunks. I brought my jeans. And I'm like, You weren't even ready to party. You brought jeans to a pool party.

Yeah, you know. Sometimes you have to. Some somebody's gonna do the business.

There's no business to be done at a pool party. Except pool party business.

Somebody's gotta make sure that there's a lifeguard and that's safe, you know? Yeah. Sometimes.

Sometimes you're good about like making sure everybody's fed when the rest of us are like, I'm gonna snorkle my way down to the bottom, and you're like, oh, I'll get you a burger. I'm like, great.

What are you talking about? I'm lost on that one. This is an interesting analogy. I gotta figure out. When have you ever been snorkeling? And I'm like, hey, have a burger. I'm lost. That made no sense. I'm just saying.

I'm all in on having the fun. Yeah, I'm like, oh, I forget that like we need to eat some food, especially when our kids were little, I'd be like, we're having a good time. And then the kids would be like, Mom, can I have a sandwich? I'd be like, I forgot that you guys needed to eat.

You know a lot about me, and you know stopping to eat's not a high priority when I'm having a good time.

Yes, but when you're having a good time. Your idea of a good time is not necessarily my idea of a good time.

You mean standing in moving water with a fly rod in my hand is not a representation of your good time?

So if I'm like splashing about in the pool, you're like, I'm kind of hungry. Yeah. Like that's those are moments when you'll stop to eat because you're like, I'm having a fine time, but it's not the best time.

And I'm like Yeah, the pool's not a great example. Because I'm not like huge on the pool. I'm not a big swimming guy.

No, I am though. Swimming is so fun. Yeah, it's a good time. Until I get grossed out, and then I'll go, oh.

Yeah, band-aid floats by the end. Or a clump of hair. Oh, right. Now you've ruined it for everybody. Oh, would you rather this or that? I like today's. Okay.

Would you rather always have to be on the same team in every game or always compete against each other?

Would you rather you and I are always on the same team in every game? Yes. Or that we're always competing against each other. Yes. I'm gonna compete against you. Why? Because it's more fun.

Look at how excited you got. And you love a good competition against me because you're only competitive, like super super competitive when it comes to trying to beat me at things. Foosball. Volleyball. Checkers. Literally anything. Yeah, I know. See who can kick a can farther. Let's play that right now. See how excited you get about competing against me. I like it. I choose that.

How is that fun for you, though? Because you know you're gonna win. No, I don't. Yes, you do. No, sometimes you get lucky.

Sometimes you get a good kick of the can. That's the thing. Oh, that was a good one.

I really do only like most of the time I'm in a competition to just have a good time. And I don't necessarily care if I win or lose. But if it is against you, I put everything I had into that competition.

See? That's why I gotta I've gotta foster this amazing competitive spirit you have by making you compete against me. Not with me, against me. Side by side, you're like, I'll do a like a 10%. He'll do the 90%, we'll come out pretty good in the competition. But head to head, you're like, I'm bringing a hundred, and he better show up with at least 50. Or else I'm gonna just

if we are together in a competition, I always go, yes, because I know that like you're gonna do a really good job. And I know that I'm gonna get ahead because of you, but then I always feel bad for you because I'm like, I'm bringing him down. I feel like I give more than 10%.

I didn't mean you only give 10. My point is you get on a team with a strong person who you feel is a good competitor, and you go, I don't have to bring 100%. Okay. You get in a competition against me and you go, it is on and 100% shows up.

Oh, and the smack talking comes out.

That's what I'm saying. It's way more fun. So I'm choosing that. What are you picking? I guess I'll choose that too. Yeah, you would. Sound logic. Would you rather this or that? I was having a conversation with one of our coworkers, uh, our boss yesterday about uh Huckleberry products in Idaho. What's the fascination? So I'm like, what are we doing? Why are we huckleberry all the things?

Because we have a lot of it, right? I think that's why. Just because we have a plethora of Huckleberry.

I mean, I get it. Like between here and Montana and parts of Wyoming, I feel like there's a lot of Huckleberry stuff. Like people from out of town visit and they go to a gift shop and they get sold a bunch of Huckleberry stuff.

Yeah. As if it's something that's regularly in our homes. Like it's maple syrup of Canada. Like you go to Canada and you expect, like, oh yeah, that's where maple syrup's from.

Okay. I can see why there's maple syrup everywhere. Like they're big on it. I don't go like around all day going, like, man, I just I got so much huckleberry. I gotta put huckleberry and this and that. I can't even.

No, but you know a lot of people who go huckleberry picking. I know two. No, we know more than that. I think I know two people. There's a lot of people in our area who go huckleberry picking. Okay, I know that For sure. What I just said.
