Our Founding Farter and Chlamydia in Bloom

Every podcast has that one running joke about something left uncompleted, and for us, it's the grand hollering contest we left hanging in the air like a note from a yodeler on a mountaintop. Well, the echoes have returned, and we're finally crowning the champions of our cacophonous challenge! Expect to be entertained by a diverse mix of victory cries, including a Swedish shout that tickles our funny bones. Plus, indulge in our whimsical commune fantasies, where I'm the mayor without a town hall, and discover why soft shell crabs are comedy gold.

Now, who could resist a bit of laughter with a side of history? Benjamin Franklin might have penned the Declaration of Independence, but today, we're more interested in his declaration of flatulence freedom with "Fart Proudly." And oh, the words we've tangled—jujitsu and chlamydia have never been more hilariously confused. From the pages of Lisa See's "Lady Tan's Circle of Women," we're whisked away into a world of historical fiction, weaving together traditional Chinese culture and the time-honored art of storytelling.

Feeling nostalgic? We've all got those songs that define our teenage angst and early adulthood escapades, and in this episode, we're turning up the volume on those very tracks. Walk down memory lane with us, and laugh at the lyrical slip-ups that have us crimson with embarrassment even years later. A huge shoutout to Producer Sara, who choreographs our audio dance week after week—this episode of the Kat and Moose Podcast is a symphony of chuckles, candid tales, and tunes that are the soundtrack of our lives.

00:00:04.187 --> 00:00:06.051
Welcome to the Cat and Moose podcast.

00:00:06.051 --> 00:00:07.394
I'm Cat and I'm Moose.

00:00:09.176 --> 00:00:12.788
This is a true life podcast where we explore the quirks of being human.

00:00:12.788 --> 00:00:20.166
Oh, hey girl, hey girl, hey, okay girl, hi girl.

00:00:20.166 --> 00:00:21.128
She said hi girls.

00:00:21.568 --> 00:00:21.748
Hi girls.

00:00:23.632 --> 00:00:29.085
She said hi girls, hi girls, you remember, wait.

00:00:29.085 --> 00:00:31.512
First, I would like to address something.

00:00:31.512 --> 00:00:33.524
This is an address.

00:00:33.524 --> 00:00:35.409
Okay, hear, hear.

00:00:35.409 --> 00:00:43.652
Okay, Can I get some like political music, like when the president walks into the Congress, or something?

00:00:43.652 --> 00:00:46.356
Yeah, sure, here you go.

00:00:47.301 --> 00:00:50.468
This is so funny because I have things to say about presidents today too.

00:00:50.468 --> 00:00:53.113
How funny I do too, what?

00:00:54.081 --> 00:00:58.567
Well, I am not talking about presidents, but Well, you just asked for presidential music.

00:00:58.567 --> 00:01:05.540
I do want presidential music because I want to make an announcement that is very formal Because you're the president.

00:01:05.960 --> 00:01:08.227
If you were running for president, I would vote for you.

00:01:08.930 --> 00:01:09.490
Thank you.

00:01:09.490 --> 00:01:16.507
I was talking about with you and some other friends what my actual job would be if we were on a commune.

00:01:17.150 --> 00:01:17.370
Mm-hmm.

00:01:17.971 --> 00:01:22.569
Yeah, and the only job somebody said was you'd be the mayor.

00:01:22.569 --> 00:01:26.647
Yeah, and I wasn't offended by that.

00:01:26.647 --> 00:01:27.611
I know it feels right.

00:01:27.611 --> 00:01:42.171
Yeah, like everyone else had like very practical jobs, but mine was just mayor, which means we're not sure what your hard skills are, but you seem like you could influence people.

00:01:42.712 --> 00:01:45.396
But you have plenty of soft skills, yeah.

00:01:47.641 --> 00:01:50.450
Which makes me immediately think of a soft shell crab.

00:01:51.141 --> 00:01:53.486
Oh the fried ones are so good.

00:01:53.486 --> 00:01:55.231
No, nope, yes.

00:01:56.721 --> 00:01:58.066
Like just don't bring me Oof.

00:01:59.379 --> 00:02:03.528
Oh, deep fried soft shell crab, bring it on, that shit's good.

00:02:03.528 --> 00:02:24.710
Yeah, but when they bring it to you on a bun with the legs sticking out, god it's yeah, I've not had that experience before I'm gonna find one, but keep going while we do that um, I'm still curious about your presidential music and your mayoral address to the community.

00:02:27.939 --> 00:02:33.127
Sarah, can you find a photo of the soft shield On a bun?

00:02:33.127 --> 00:02:47.576
So the announcement that I want to make is it has come to our attention that we do not follow through with things on the podcast, and in order for us to grow, we need to be challenged.

00:02:47.576 --> 00:03:14.186
So I would like to say thank you to those challengers out there who say that our follow through is on the poor level, and so, as a way to say that, oh yeah, you, you, you put down a challenge, you double dog, dared us, we will show up, and so I would like to make an announcement that we are going to follow through on the hollering contest that we did back in August of last year and actually choose the winners.

00:03:14.967 --> 00:03:24.167
Yep, we're going to follow through on what we said we're going to do and we had a hollering competition and we're following through on the hollering competition.

00:03:24.167 --> 00:03:29.974
What I thought you were going to say is that you've already set up the cat and moose podcastcom.

00:03:29.974 --> 00:03:35.906
Slash go, fund me page I thought about it.

00:03:35.906 --> 00:03:39.788
I've got a few people who are already already willing to donate.

00:03:40.169 --> 00:03:40.972
Are you serious?

00:03:41.513 --> 00:03:42.877
No, not at all, it's a lie.

00:03:43.498 --> 00:03:47.110
Okay, good, I was going to say like, look, we will take your money.

00:04:19.552 --> 00:04:25.463
I think we should Like just right off the top.

00:04:25.463 --> 00:04:26.687
We're addressing the, the conflict.

00:04:26.706 --> 00:04:47.076
We're going to move forward and make an announcement, okay well, let's just remind people where we started on all this oh cool well, I've grown up around hollering because my grandfather was the champion, and I've grown up to just start hollering.

00:04:47.480 --> 00:05:13.151
And then one day I decided that I would yell, and so I hollered, and one of my hollers was the distress holler, which went like this Woo Woo, I'm sorry, but that's not like she's having a good time and then there's a water call which is like, when I'm out in the field and I want some water, I'll yell to the house and it goes like this Woo.

00:05:13.711 --> 00:05:15.216
Woo.

00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:24.413
Somebody just brings her water and then, if I want some dogs to come to me, there's a holler which goes like this Woo Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo Woo.

00:05:24.473 --> 00:05:27.540

That one's awesome wonder, what that is calling for huh.

00:06:32.274 --> 00:06:33.276

Okay, and we got this one.

00:06:51.247 --> 00:06:52.949
This is my.

00:06:53.069 --> 00:07:02.016
Swedish harried mother of six children that is so sick of her kids and they're screaming whole chef done.

00:07:04.119 --> 00:07:04.379
Done.

00:07:04.379 --> 00:07:11.343
She said it means shut up in swedish.

00:07:11.343 --> 00:07:13.648
I mean that that might win.

00:07:14.428 --> 00:07:21.485
Yeah, I mean like the whole shaft done, it's like it just means shut up.

00:07:21.725 --> 00:07:25.471
I love, love that we have Swedish listeners too, I know.

00:07:25.512 --> 00:07:26.774
Oh my gosh yeah.

00:07:27.194 --> 00:07:27.615
So cool.

00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:32.153
Do you guys get Sweden and Switzerland mixed up ever yeah?

00:07:32.213 --> 00:07:32.956
Yeah, all the time.

00:07:33.216 --> 00:07:33.939
Yeah, yeah.

00:07:33.939 --> 00:07:35.084
A lot of times I'll go.

00:07:35.084 --> 00:07:36.930
I'm Sweden here, I'm Sweden.

00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:43.649
Guys, I want to be Norway in this conversation.

00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:48.990
Guys, I would like to be the South Pole in this conversation.

00:07:50.081 --> 00:07:52.026
That might get you somewhere you don't want to go.

00:07:52.528 --> 00:07:52.749
Right?

00:07:52.749 --> 00:07:53.531
Well, that's true.

00:07:53.531 --> 00:08:14.942
We talked about the South Pole quite a bit last week, so I've stumbled upon something that I think is really neat, and I also am having that sensation that I get sometimes in my body where I feel like I know that, I know that, I know that I'm like not seeing someone or I am taking up too much space.

00:08:14.942 --> 00:08:18.567
So is it okay for me to talk right now, or do I need to?

00:08:23.012 --> 00:08:25.016
I thought, you were serious at first and.

00:08:25.096 --> 00:08:27.920
I was like oh my gosh, you're half of the podcast.

00:08:30.423 --> 00:08:34.991
I was literally like holy crap somebody send her an antidepressant.

00:08:34.991 --> 00:08:44.394
Thank you for shocking me, that was enjoyable it's so rare.

00:08:44.394 --> 00:08:45.245
I was like where are we going?

00:08:45.245 --> 00:08:45.948
Thank you for shocking me.

00:08:45.948 --> 00:08:46.331
That was enjoyable.

00:08:46.331 --> 00:08:46.813
It's so rare.

00:08:50.666 --> 00:08:52.249
I was like where are we going, okay?

00:08:52.249 --> 00:09:05.532
So I'm going to say something to you and it's going to take you maybe a second or two to process, but the time in between the year 1916 and 1970.

00:09:05.532 --> 00:09:09.828
Okay, was 54 years, okay.

00:09:09.828 --> 00:09:19.075
Okay, that is the same amount of time as 1970 to 2024.

00:09:20.760 --> 00:09:23.269
Yeah, man, that's weird.

00:09:23.710 --> 00:09:25.759
Wow, 54 years, wow, 54 years, wow.

00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:28.967
Can I offer even more context?

00:09:28.967 --> 00:09:30.071
Yes, please.

00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:32.466
Is that the age you're about to turn?

00:09:34.541 --> 00:09:37.548
None of that is having to do anything with my age.

00:09:37.548 --> 00:09:39.613
No, but thank you, I'm just kidding.

00:09:39.613 --> 00:09:54.350
You're right behind me, you're right behind me, okay, so in 1916 is when we had the 28th president of the United States, hi Satchel, that's for you, hi Satchel.

00:09:54.350 --> 00:10:02.682
He was not the president, he wasn't the president, but he would know who the 28th president of the United States is, and it was Woodrow Wilson.

00:10:02.682 --> 00:10:21.174
And Woodrow Wilson signed the National Defense Act and what that did is, for the first time in American history, that gave the president the authority in extreme cases of emergency or acts of God or something really terrible.

00:10:21.174 --> 00:10:25.068
It gives the president the ability to enact the National Guard.

00:10:25.068 --> 00:10:31.530
That's the first time that ever became a law was in 1916.

00:10:31.530 --> 00:10:37.163
And then, for perspective, 54 years later, the Beatles broke up.

00:10:37.163 --> 00:10:38.884
Wow, wow.

00:10:38.884 --> 00:10:44.874
Same time as in 1970, apollo 13 was launched.

00:10:44.874 --> 00:10:48.740
Same time as in 1970, apollo 13 was launched.

00:10:48.740 --> 00:10:53.152
And only 54 years later, here we sit today.

00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:57.102
Are you saying something crazy is going to happen this year, or significant?

00:10:58.104 --> 00:11:05.730
I'm saying that it's fascinating to me how quickly our society has evolved.

00:11:05.730 --> 00:11:18.301
Yeah, the past like 54 years, you know yeah, in 100 years.

00:11:18.321 --> 00:11:23.990
You know, it's like it's like to think that the time between 1916 and 1970 is the same as between 1970 and 2024.

00:11:23.990 --> 00:11:26.153
Like 1970 was five years before I was born.

00:11:26.153 --> 00:11:35.003
Yeah, and if you just look at the stuff that happened between woodrow wilson signing that thing and the beatles breaking up, like that's a lot of shit to go on.

00:11:35.003 --> 00:11:37.249
Yeah, in only 54 years.

00:11:37.249 --> 00:11:55.827
You know, and I'm just saying like golly, like I've heard people say before, that technology has evolved a lot faster than our species has evolved, to the point that like we can't handle it, you know, and it's like, well, no shit, like I don't know.

00:11:55.960 --> 00:12:09.509
I just found that really fascinating, I think it's fascinating too, especially when we consider quantum physics, and I was thinking about this the other day.

00:12:09.509 --> 00:12:30.529
I have a really hard time being patient when things, when I want things to move, and when I just lean in and I do it and I do the thing, I realized that it actually takes the time I had to learn the things I had to learn before I got to the place.

00:12:30.529 --> 00:12:48.095
I wanted to be Right and it's never on my, it's never on my timeline, and so I realize what you're saying is it actually does move fast when we look backward, but it just feels like it's moving slow in the moment.

00:12:49.336 --> 00:12:49.596
Yeah.

00:12:50.061 --> 00:12:53.830
Which also made me think of a new quote that I saw this week.

00:12:54.711 --> 00:12:54.893
Yeah.

00:12:55.640 --> 00:13:05.725
That said, depression I've already talked about this Depression is when you are trying to be somewhere that you aren't right now.

00:13:06.826 --> 00:13:13.647
Oh, wow, yeah, I remember you playing a clip about Jim Carrey saying something about depression, but it wasn't that.

00:13:13.807 --> 00:13:17.817
Oh, I've got lots on depression, A whole catalog whole card catalog.

00:13:20.446 --> 00:13:21.989
You're back to the microfiche again.

00:13:21.989 --> 00:13:23.913
Yeah.

00:13:24.575 --> 00:13:25.778
I would like to buy one of those.

00:13:26.825 --> 00:13:38.813
Did you know that Benjamin Franklin was so obsessed with farting that he wrote an essay about it titled Fart Proudly no, wow, they called it farting back then.

00:13:39.135 --> 00:13:42.269
Yes, oh my gosh, See, we have progressed.

00:13:42.269 --> 00:13:43.552
We have indeed.

00:13:43.813 --> 00:13:44.216
We did.

00:13:44.645 --> 00:13:44.886
Can you?

00:13:44.947 --> 00:13:45.668
read it to us.

00:13:45.668 --> 00:13:54.481
Yes, this is what came on my Instagram, okay, okay, yes, this is what came on my Instagram, okay, okay.

00:13:54.481 --> 00:14:00.816
Benjamin Franklin is one of the most renowned figures in American history, and he was also so obsessed with farting that he wrote an essay about it.

00:14:00.816 --> 00:14:11.615
In 1781, franklin submitted an article titled Fart Proudly to the Royal Academy of Brussels, which was one of the most respected scientific organizations in Europe.

00:14:11.615 --> 00:14:18.669
In it, franklin demanded to know why the Academy was putting absolutely no effort into figuring out how to make farts smell better.

00:14:20.552 --> 00:14:21.294
I love that.

00:14:21.294 --> 00:14:23.558
I love smart people.

00:14:23.558 --> 00:14:25.368
I just love smart people.

00:14:25.368 --> 00:14:31.572
Like we've talked about this before like anybody who's super smart I like develop an instant crush on.

00:14:31.572 --> 00:14:52.378
And it's like you know, it's like if I knew Benjamin Franklin, he would probably be like my, my crush yeah, one of the comments said our founding farter and wasn't Benjamin Franklin also the one who proposed that the turkey be our national symbol?

00:14:52.979 --> 00:14:53.841
I don't remember.

00:14:54.524 --> 00:14:56.192
Yeah, I think that was Franklin as well.

00:14:56.192 --> 00:14:58.370
Sounds like a quirky fellow, doesn't he?

00:14:58.370 --> 00:15:03.755
Yeah, yeah, he probably would have been a great guest on the Cat and Moose podcast.

00:15:04.136 --> 00:15:10.297
Yeah, you know how you love Chinese medicine and all that kind of stuff.

00:15:10.297 --> 00:15:13.967
Mm, hmm, love um Chinese medicine and all that kind of stuff.

00:15:13.967 --> 00:15:16.735
Well, I just want you to know I'm representing you and my house over here properly.

00:15:17.817 --> 00:15:18.519
Tell me how.

00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:26.297
And I was talking about scheduling the podcast and Sarah was like well, tuesday at this time really makes sense.

00:15:26.297 --> 00:15:28.730
And I was like, oh, I don't think you're caught up on the text thread.

00:15:28.730 --> 00:15:33.054
I said Kat can't do that time because she has jujitsu.

00:15:39.485 --> 00:15:41.754
Thank you for representing me, Moose.

00:15:42.686 --> 00:16:03.519
I really meant Jen Shindell, but jujitsu I just immediately created like an AI character in my mind of you, in a white karate outfit with a black belt and it was like yeah, it's, it's so like Jinjutsu is a a more familiar term.

00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:04.166
Yeah.

00:16:04.408 --> 00:16:04.750
You know.

00:16:04.750 --> 00:16:06.565
So it makes total sense.

00:16:06.565 --> 00:16:10.775
Our friend Mark does this thing whenever I talk about body work.

00:16:10.775 --> 00:16:12.981
Our friend Mark does this thing whenever I talk about body work.

00:16:12.981 --> 00:16:29.741
He imitates beating a gong and he goes.

00:16:29.741 --> 00:16:32.107
It's really, really funny.

00:16:32.227 --> 00:16:35.477
He did that once and I cracked up.

00:16:35.477 --> 00:16:38.567
Yes, hey, at least you have friends that make fun of you.

00:16:38.648 --> 00:16:51.092
That's the best kind of love yeah, I mean I'm I'm so glad for friends that make fun of me and we got to hang out with one of our mutual friends this week all together and I had so much fun hanging out with you guys.

00:16:51.092 --> 00:17:03.009
We hung out with our friend, who is a family member, who is a listener of the podcast, who is an author, who is a friend who is a musician.

00:17:03.009 --> 00:17:12.037
We hung out with the lovely Stacey Frenes and had the best time hanging out with her and she recommended are you guys sitting down?

00:17:12.545 --> 00:17:12.986
Yeah.

00:17:14.127 --> 00:17:16.792
She recommended that I read a book.

00:17:17.994 --> 00:17:20.338
Oh, does she know you won't do that.

00:17:21.285 --> 00:17:24.111
She knows it is uncommon for me to do it.

00:17:24.111 --> 00:17:32.477
And then so basically, she said you really need to read Lisa Lee's Lady Tan's Circle of Women.

00:17:32.477 --> 00:17:42.958
She's like I think you will love this book and it's a historical fiction book set way back in a long time ago China, about this woman who becomes like a medicine lady.

00:17:43.458 --> 00:17:44.220
Oh cool.

00:17:44.779 --> 00:17:46.932
Yeah, and so I'm super excited about it.

00:17:46.932 --> 00:17:49.433
I am already in the third chapter.

00:17:50.707 --> 00:17:51.950
Who are you?

00:17:51.950 --> 00:17:54.655
Yes, is this audio book or you're reading it?

00:18:01.224 --> 00:18:01.305
Both.

00:18:01.305 --> 00:18:01.586
I bought both.

00:18:01.586 --> 00:18:02.990
I bought the hardcover yeah, I bought the hardcover book.

00:18:02.990 --> 00:18:14.714
She bought it for me actually at Parnassus Um and then I bought the audio book, cause I had to be in the car for like three hours by myself yesterday and so I was like, okay, I'm going to get a head start on this, so and I read another chapter this morning over my morning coffee.

00:18:14.835 --> 00:18:19.834
So what if you were lady tan in another life?

00:18:20.875 --> 00:18:30.990
I would be so happy in some ways, but I would also have had my feet bound my whole life, and that terrifies me so I don't want.

00:18:30.990 --> 00:18:35.751
I don't want that part of being lady tan right um.

00:18:36.933 --> 00:18:42.769
Sarah has a story about the night we hung out with Stacey oh yeah, um.

00:18:43.671 --> 00:18:58.196
so we were doing a tour of your backyard, cat, and I was looking at all of the lovely blooms, as we were talking about last week on the podcast, how spring has sprung and everything is in full bloom.

00:18:58.196 --> 00:19:11.452
And so me and Moose and Stacey walk outside and I'm like, look at these beautiful flowers over here, beautiful purple and she's like, oh yeah, just as calm as the day could be.

00:19:11.452 --> 00:19:16.651
Oh yeah, I think those are chlamydia.

00:19:16.651 --> 00:19:25.934
And on, she kept talking and I go like there was something in my brain that thought that sounds familiar, but I don't think it's right.

00:19:25.934 --> 00:19:32.836
And so then she pops her head and is like, hey, kat, what are these flowers called?

00:19:32.836 --> 00:19:35.420
And they're called Clematis, clematis.

00:19:35.420 --> 00:19:40.834
That's when Stacey found the error in her way and she goes I'm pretty sure I just called those chlamydia.

00:19:42.786 --> 00:19:49.138
And the best part of that is that Stacey is like a writer, like a wordsmith.

00:19:49.138 --> 00:19:50.625
Yeah, a wordsmith.

00:19:51.470 --> 00:20:01.748
She has a degree, in english poetic way of saying things yeah, yeah, I mean, she has a degree in english and she runs a company called grammar boss.

00:20:01.748 --> 00:20:14.758
Yeah, like she's an editor, like she has better vocabulary than most adults, I know yeah and the fact that she made that mistake, like, like, I feel like I laughed for about 20 minutes about that.

00:20:15.306 --> 00:20:24.473
It kept going all night and we kept saying the chlamydia is in full bloom this year this spring, yeah.

00:20:24.625 --> 00:20:29.816
And then she said I said can we ask permission to talk about this on the podcast?

00:20:29.816 --> 00:20:34.289
And she said yes, yes, it would be an honor if it could be part of the title.

00:20:34.289 --> 00:20:36.294
And that's where we came up with.

00:20:36.413 --> 00:20:43.413
Chlamydia is in bloom in cat's backyard and bloom, full bloom, and and moose was like.

00:20:43.875 --> 00:20:57.951
What a beautiful word for such a terrible thing you know, yeah, you bring up a really good point like that is a pretty word a nice sounding word sounds like a great name for a flower, right it does.

00:20:57.951 --> 00:21:07.330
It's not a flower, guys guys, why don't we just get some of that beautiful ground cover called chlamydia and just put it all around our fence?

00:21:09.113 --> 00:21:19.647
It's like so many sexual euphemisms yes, euphemism, mism nizzle I have.

00:21:19.647 --> 00:21:33.288
On the last episode, kat, you talked about how you wanted to have your own segment called drip drop Close enough, close enough, yeah.

00:21:33.288 --> 00:21:35.731
Um segment called drip drop Close enough, close enough, yeah.

00:21:35.731 --> 00:21:54.006
Um, and I know Sarah's working on some, uh, some stuff for that and I my favorite part that I bring to the podcast is always kind of interesting news, like I'm a curator and so, um, sarah, maybe you could give me some like a news intro, yeah.

00:21:54.026 --> 00:21:58.311
And I don't know what we're going to call it, but it's like mooses news or something.

00:21:58.311 --> 00:22:00.858
Maybe listeners could tell us what they want to call it.

00:22:00.858 --> 00:22:03.612
Okay, but I have four stories here today.

00:22:03.612 --> 00:22:11.246
We don't have to cover them all, but, um, I put them into categories so you guys could really choose your maybe your own adventure.

00:22:11.767 --> 00:22:21.273
And the categories today are shocking, sad and funny, cicadas or embarrassing, okay, ooh.

00:22:21.273 --> 00:22:24.076
So which one do you want, kat?

00:22:24.076 --> 00:22:26.798
Shocking, ooh, okay.

00:22:26.798 --> 00:22:27.238
Shocking.

00:22:27.238 --> 00:22:32.001
So, sarah, the shocking one is going to be the first link that I sent you.

00:22:32.001 --> 00:22:38.464
Oh, okay, all right.

00:22:38.464 --> 00:22:42.993
So, um, neither of them have seen this, but there's a video I would like to share with you guys that it ran across this week.

00:22:42.993 --> 00:22:43.414
Does this look right?

00:22:43.414 --> 00:22:43.756
That's it.

00:22:43.756 --> 00:22:44.718
It's on CBS mornings.

00:22:44.718 --> 00:22:45.318
Here we go.

00:22:46.365 --> 00:22:52.638
First of its kind, nude cruise, previously only available, leaving from Tampa, now leaving Port of Miami.

00:22:52.638 --> 00:22:54.330
This is February of next year.

00:22:54.330 --> 00:22:55.294
It'll be hundreds of people.

00:22:55.294 --> 00:22:56.588
There'll be no clothes on them.

00:22:56.588 --> 00:22:58.173
Why do I love this?

00:22:58.173 --> 00:23:00.969
I was wondering that.

00:23:01.009 --> 00:23:01.872
Tony DeCoppo.

00:23:01.932 --> 00:23:02.855
Why do you love this.

00:23:02.855 --> 00:23:07.962
Well you know, it takes one of the common complaints about cruises and removes it as a problem Clothes what?

00:23:07.982 --> 00:23:08.424
are you going to pack?

00:23:08.424 --> 00:23:09.307
What are you going to pack?

00:23:09.307 --> 00:23:09.808
What are you going to?

00:23:09.828 --> 00:23:10.230
wear Are you going?

00:23:10.230 --> 00:23:14.271
I've been joking that the packing would be easier, but now I come to think of it it's not really a joke.

00:23:14.271 --> 00:23:19.133
I like the idea of going on a vacation without packing anything, but I do have questions like where do you put your phone?

00:23:19.133 --> 00:23:26.549
Where do you put your room key, tony, do you want?

00:23:26.549 --> 00:23:28.090
And my question I did do some research here.

00:23:28.090 --> 00:23:33.174
Apparently, you walk around with a clean towel, so when you sit your bare bottom down, you're not on the deck.

00:23:33.174 --> 00:23:33.994
That makes sense.

00:23:34.776 --> 00:23:37.176
Wow, I mean, first of all, he's very interested.

00:23:37.657 --> 00:23:44.583
Very Well, I mean he's got that little sheepish grin that just won't go away the whole time he's talking about.

00:23:44.603 --> 00:23:44.722
Yeah.

00:23:45.384 --> 00:23:45.605
Adorable.

00:23:46.105 --> 00:23:49.212
Would you guys ever consider going on something like this?

00:23:49.212 --> 00:23:50.115
I couldn't do it.

00:23:50.115 --> 00:23:50.536
Nope.

00:23:50.536 --> 00:23:55.471
So if you're interested, it's called the bear necessities cruise.

00:23:55.471 --> 00:24:00.026
Um any other categories you'd like to hear?

00:24:00.026 --> 00:24:01.329
Sad but funny.

00:24:01.329 --> 00:24:02.354
I really want you to choose.

00:24:02.354 --> 00:24:03.036
Sad but funny.

00:24:03.036 --> 00:24:03.878
Let's do it.

00:24:03.878 --> 00:24:06.405
Okay, it's the second one, sarah.

00:24:06.405 --> 00:24:11.394
This made me sad, but also I laughed out loud, is it?

00:24:11.394 --> 00:24:12.476
Yep cat?

00:24:12.476 --> 00:24:13.817
Can you read it?

00:24:13.817 --> 00:24:13.877
Oh?

00:24:13.959 --> 00:24:24.519
it makes me so sad, okay, um topeka zoo's vibrant and beloved ostrich karen dies after swallowing a set of keys.

00:24:24.519 --> 00:24:27.569
I mean it is awful awful.

00:24:28.131 --> 00:24:30.434
I'm not laughing at the dying, not at all.

00:24:30.434 --> 00:24:32.779
I'm laughing at its name, karen.

00:24:33.986 --> 00:24:35.750
And a little bit how it died.

00:24:36.771 --> 00:24:39.157
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:24:39.157 --> 00:24:41.212
Maybe that wasn't the best one to read.

00:24:43.987 --> 00:24:45.573
How about the one about cicadas?

00:24:45.825 --> 00:24:47.611
Okay, sarah, that's the last one.

00:24:47.611 --> 00:24:49.234
Give it to us, here we go.

00:24:51.286 --> 00:24:54.173
It's set to be the biggest invasion in hundreds of years.

00:24:54.193 --> 00:24:56.890
No, that's South Carolina.

00:24:56.930 --> 00:25:06.250
Guys Just come out, look at this Pesky, incredibly loud Cicadas the invasion has begun.

00:25:06.250 --> 00:25:08.055
Oh no, Look how bad that is.

00:25:08.904 --> 00:25:14.609
And they're already coming out in South Carolina where they're taking over Sarah Weiner's backyard.

00:25:14.630 --> 00:25:15.413
I know you can't see this.

00:25:15.413 --> 00:25:21.017
If you're listening but there are cicadas, all over this woman's patio.

00:25:21.726 --> 00:25:22.845
This is my first invasion.

00:25:22.845 --> 00:25:26.375
They moved in and they have stayed.

00:25:26.925 --> 00:25:28.090
Oh, she's crunching them.

00:25:28.090 --> 00:25:30.605
They're mostly under her gazebo, clinging onto every corner.

00:25:30.605 --> 00:25:32.203
What are you sayingMR, for you guys there?

00:25:32.203 --> 00:25:32.445
I?

00:25:32.465 --> 00:25:33.671
think this is a safe spot.

00:25:33.671 --> 00:25:37.207
It's already getting so loud in Newberry County.

00:25:37.228 --> 00:25:39.173
People are calling the sheriff to complain.

00:25:39.173 --> 00:25:43.851
We're just going to have to take this as it comes.

00:25:43.851 --> 00:25:44.373
You guys?

00:25:44.373 --> 00:25:45.388
I think so.

00:25:45.388 --> 00:25:48.314
It's just going to have to be one step at a time.

00:25:48.314 --> 00:25:50.553
If it's like that, I'm not leaving.

00:25:50.553 --> 00:25:52.911
You're going to just have to be one step at a time.

00:25:52.911 --> 00:25:53.693
Yeah, if it's like that, I'm not leaving.

00:25:53.693 --> 00:25:54.538
You're going to go back into COVID mode.

00:25:54.538 --> 00:25:54.778
Yep, be like.

00:25:54.778 --> 00:25:57.086
I'm sorry I have to cancel this meeting because of the cicadas.

00:25:57.528 --> 00:26:00.493
Yeah, Completely agree with that.

00:26:00.493 --> 00:26:05.029
I have one more thing that I need from you guys, and then we must go this week.

00:26:05.029 --> 00:26:08.756
All right, I need each of you very quickly.

00:26:08.756 --> 00:26:12.041
You have a full 45 seconds to think about this.

00:26:12.041 --> 00:26:16.670
I want you to picture yourself at age 16.

00:26:16.670 --> 00:26:36.114
Okay, you can even Google the year if you need to, but I need you to tell me the song that describes you at that age, and I want Sarah to create us a little medley of all three of those songs Age 16.

00:26:36.934 --> 00:26:38.096
Okay, I can, I can.

00:26:38.576 --> 00:26:45.161
Yeah, I've got mine, okay, all right, it's going to be great All right.

00:26:45.201 --> 00:26:45.942
Who wants to go first?

00:26:45.942 --> 00:26:46.843
Cat, please.

00:26:46.843 --> 00:26:47.650
She is the name of the podcast.

00:26:47.650 --> 00:26:47.992
Oh, that's true.

00:26:47.992 --> 00:26:48.213
Oh gosh Um.

00:26:48.213 --> 00:26:48.435
Kat please.

00:26:48.435 --> 00:26:49.241
She is the name of the podcast.

00:26:49.241 --> 00:26:49.585
Oh, that's true.

00:26:51.026 --> 00:26:52.087
Oh gosh, okay.

00:26:52.087 --> 00:27:03.593
So the question from Moose was when I was 16 years old, what is a song that just really like?

00:27:03.593 --> 00:27:05.038
Says oh yeah.

00:27:05.038 --> 00:27:06.724
That takes me back to when I was 16.

00:27:06.724 --> 00:27:12.959
And I went and looked at the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1991.

00:27:12.959 --> 00:27:14.371
That's the year that I was 16.

00:27:14.371 --> 00:27:21.719
And every single song on the chart is on my liked songs on Spotify still.

00:27:22.405 --> 00:27:23.451
So let's start.

00:27:23.451 --> 00:27:26.711
Let's start there, OK, which I couldn't believe.

00:27:26.711 --> 00:27:38.269
I was like I know every one of these songs and I love them, and in my head I started thinking can you take me yesterday?

00:27:38.269 --> 00:27:48.142
And then I was like no, the, the song that absolutely marked my 16 year old self, was none other than Amy Grant's Baby, Baby.

00:27:49.346 --> 00:27:54.054
Oh my gosh, yeah, come on.

00:27:54.054 --> 00:27:56.759
I mean, look how cool she is there.

00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:00.267
Hey, get it.

00:28:00.267 --> 00:28:03.333
John Travolta oh, it looks like it.

00:28:03.333 --> 00:28:04.935
Oh, she's mad at him.

00:28:04.935 --> 00:28:06.458
Oh, I've never watched this video.

00:28:06.458 --> 00:28:25.971
There's no better way to express love than a puppy.

00:28:25.971 --> 00:28:26.292
Come on, I agree.

00:28:26.292 --> 00:28:26.836
Okay, what was yours moose?

00:28:26.836 --> 00:28:32.553
Well, this isn't what I expected from myself, but when I looked at the list as well this one it just raised its hand.

00:28:32.553 --> 00:28:44.374
Yeah yeah I love this song still moves my soul.

00:28:49.058 --> 00:28:51.321
I mean, he was a hunk of a man.

00:28:51.321 --> 00:28:53.692
Look at that eagle.

00:28:53.692 --> 00:28:59.857
Oh, his hair is showing on his chest.

00:28:59.857 --> 00:29:01.604
Fire in the bird.

00:29:02.204 --> 00:29:04.213
The wind and rain.

00:29:06.826 --> 00:29:07.729
And into my life.

00:29:07.729 --> 00:29:09.673
You are the one one you'll do it now.

00:29:09.673 --> 00:29:11.176
You are the one.

00:29:11.176 --> 00:29:21.252
You are the one yeah, I know that part.

00:29:21.252 --> 00:29:26.219
What a good song, moose damn it, damn it.

00:29:26.398 --> 00:29:28.240
I did my math wrong earlier.

00:29:28.565 --> 00:29:31.978
I was going to say this is not from 90-something.

00:29:31.978 --> 00:29:35.605
She's got Leona Lewis's Bleeding Love.

00:29:35.744 --> 00:29:40.352
I just minused 16, and it's not right, but this was mine right here.

00:29:40.704 --> 00:29:42.136
Yeah, this was college for me.

00:29:42.136 --> 00:30:03.580
This is a good one, ba-da-ba-da-ba, ba-da-ba-da-ba, this is a good one, and I'm back at a motherfucking end.

00:30:03.580 --> 00:30:05.042
She's dancing, dancing, dancing, imagine.

00:30:05.083 --> 00:30:05.923
Her own motivation.

00:30:05.923 --> 00:30:09.894
She goes down, down, down, down, down down.

00:30:11.048 --> 00:30:12.673
I don't know the lyrics to the verse.

00:30:12.673 --> 00:30:15.025
Chop another line like a coda with a curse.

00:30:15.025 --> 00:30:16.490
Call her like a freak show.

00:30:16.490 --> 00:30:19.011
Takes the stage, the game we play.

00:30:19.031 --> 00:30:26.993
She said I want something else To get me through this Semi-tr jump kind of life.

00:30:26.993 --> 00:30:31.717
Baby, baby, I want something else.

00:30:31.717 --> 00:30:45.054
