imronssweatyballs
I did the stop and it got louder and i was like, I don't know what's going on
00:00:13
Chris
Welcome come back to another episode.
00:00:19
Chris
I didn't either. ah Welcome back to another episode of Mythic Giraffe podcast. I'm a confused Chris.
00:00:25
imronssweatyballs
And I am a hot and sweaty Ron.
00:00:28
Chris
It's not hot out. It's in your mind.
00:00:31
imronssweatyballs
i Look, it's summer.
00:00:34
Chris
Yeah.
00:00:34
imronssweatyballs
Everybody's losing their mind because it's hot out. It's supposed to be hot in summer.
00:00:37
Chris
but Yeah. is it We're what? The second day of summer?
00:00:40
imronssweatyballs
Third, I think, right?
00:00:43
Chris
I can never remember it the 24th or 21st, but yeah.
00:00:45
imronssweatyballs
I can't either. But summer, it's supposed to be hot.
00:00:50
Chris
Yeah. But not like a slam into the wall immediate.
00:00:54
imronssweatyballs
Well, I think what happened was my theory. We had such a cold spring.
00:01:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:01:00
imronssweatyballs
We didn't really have a warming up period. It went from like 60 degrees to 80 degrees and then 100 degrees.
00:01:03
Chris
Yeah.
00:01:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:01:07
imronssweatyballs
Didn't get to really adjust.
00:01:09
Chris
So Mother Nature just had that heat built up and it's like, I got to let it out.
00:01:13
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, and and we've had wind for six months and all of sudden when it's hot and there's no wind.
00:01:17
Chris
Yeah.
00:01:17
imronssweatyballs
It's like you sons of bitches.
00:01:19
Chris
Yeah.
Summer Heat Experiences
00:01:20
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah, I'm riding my bike home. oh I'm going to be late for the podcast. Maybe not time. And so as I'm going by the high school, the freaking thermometer says 100 degrees outside. Like, who's that for?
00:01:34
Chris
Yeah. Well,
00:01:35
imronssweatyballs
Oh, it's hot out. I'm glad the thermometer at the school is telling me it's hot.
00:01:40
Chris
I got my work vehicle to leave and it was it set 104. was like, there is no way. a
00:01:49
imronssweatyballs
You all need remote starts on those things.
00:01:53
Chris
I have one. I just forget it. I have it. Yeah. I mean, I usually send a peasant out to start it and.
00:01:57
imronssweatyballs
so
00:02:01
Chris
Once I got to work this morning and I was like, you know, haven't done in a while.
00:02:01
imronssweatyballs
ap
00:02:06
Chris
I need to wash my buggy. Oh, I I was in like a flop sweat just washing my car. It was crazy.
00:02:16
imronssweatyballs
yeah Yeah, for some reason I've always felt the garage at Station 16 is crazy hot I don't know if it's because of the way the the building faces.
00:02:26
Chris
Oh, I didn't pull in. No, no, no, no. I was just, I was outside, pulled up to the back door and stretched it outside.
00:02:28
imronssweatyballs
Oh.
00:02:31
imronssweatyballs
Hmm.
00:02:33
Chris
But yeah, it was still just hot, just humid.
00:02:36
imronssweatyballs
Because, like, we can sit with the doors open and the fan on at Station 1 and be pretty comfortable.
00:02:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:41
imronssweatyballs
I can't... Brooks... Oh, I shouldn't say his name. The captain on my shift made his shift eat dinner the other day in the engine bay at 16, and they said they were all sweating to death.
00:02:50
Chris
What? Why?
00:02:52
imronssweatyballs
i it I don't know. He's obsessed with with our table that we have at Station 1, so now they have one
00:02:54
Chris
what
00:02:56
Chris
with.
00:03:00
Chris
Oh yeah, I know. Yeah. Nobody was sitting at it today. It was weird.
00:03:04
imronssweatyballs
Is the one at Station 1?
00:03:04
Chris
Yeah.
00:03:07
Chris
Oh, I don't know about station one. I'm saying the one at 16.
00:03:09
imronssweatyballs
Oh. and say we The guys at 1 sit on that thing pretty regularly.
00:03:14
Chris
Yeah. Yep.
00:03:16
imronssweatyballs
It has become a catch-all, and it drives me a little nuts, but
00:03:19
Chris
Oh yeah. That's yeah.
00:03:22
imronssweatyballs
It's...
00:03:22
Chris
Well, I mean, forced camaraderie is the way to instill teamwork.
00:03:26
imronssweatyballs
It's... It's fair?
00:03:28
Chris
Yeah.
HVAC Issues and Solutions
00:03:31
Chris
And then you have station two. That is the rainforest right now.
00:03:36
imronssweatyballs
Oh, yeah?
00:03:38
Chris
ah Yeah. The ah can the compressors went up and the other day they were able to squeegee water off the table.
00:03:41
imronssweatyballs
Oh, my God.
00:03:44
imronssweatyballs
Oh, my God.
00:03:46
Chris
Yeah.
00:03:47
imronssweatyballs
What? When do we leave truck two in the building and collapse station two on itself?
00:03:53
Chris
ah Tomorrow.
00:03:54
imronssweatyballs
Okay. It's gotta be soon. that The whole, it's a whole lemon over there.
00:03:57
Chris
Yeah. All right.
00:04:00
Chris
Yeah. Yep. Yeah. I'm, I'm literally looking for grants to redo that HVAC system.
00:04:08
imronssweatyballs
It's not, it's five years old.
00:04:11
Chris
Yeah.
00:04:12
imronssweatyballs
Is it really even five years old? Because it's been fixed in those five years, I think.
00:04:13
Chris
Yeah.
00:04:17
Chris
Oh yeah. The system who knows what it's. Yeah. It's piss poor system.
00:04:23
imronssweatyballs
We actually had a talk the other day on my shift. I said, I'm worried about the new engine that will not be at station one until after I retire.
00:04:28
Chris
Hmm.
00:04:31
imronssweatyballs
But like, I'm worried about them getting a new station station one because like things just work at station one right now.
00:04:31
Chris
Yeah.
00:04:37
Chris
Yeah.
00:04:38
imronssweatyballs
You like it's always because we're talking about truck two and so we said, well, engine engine one's had its time. I said, engine one has been struck by a vehicle and had to have it be rebuilt.
00:04:49
imronssweatyballs
That's the only time I remember being out a service for a lengthy period.
00:04:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:04:53
imronssweatyballs
And it's almost...
00:04:54
Chris
And even then, yeah the old girl was trying to get back out there.
00:04:57
imronssweatyballs
but She was limping onto calls.
00:04:59
Chris
yeah
00:04:59
imronssweatyballs
And it's also almost 20 years old.
00:05:03
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:03
imronssweatyballs
What are you talking about?
00:05:04
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:06
imronssweatyballs
Like, it leaks like a sieve, but, you know, that's fine.
00:05:09
Chris
yeah ah
Old Equipment Preference
00:05:10
Chris
A lot of older people do.
00:05:12
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah. It just needs to be drained every once while.
00:05:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:15
imronssweatyballs
Just like the rest of us old people.
00:05:15
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:18
imronssweatyballs
But i was i would I would rather have this station where everything works...
00:05:19
Chris
Yeah.
00:05:23
imronssweatyballs
You know, pretty much, we're just pretty chill out there.
00:05:25
Chris
yeah
00:05:29
Chris
know yeah
00:05:31
imronssweatyballs
Our station's not sinking into the bog.
00:05:34
Chris
Yeah, that's yeah that's ah that's a point.
00:05:35
imronssweatyballs
yeah
00:05:37
imronssweatyballs
But I would say Station 16's HVAC system has been replaced like five times between the two sides.
00:05:45
Chris
Oh, yeah.
00:05:46
imronssweatyballs
Yeah.
00:05:46
Chris
Yeah. Let's take our side. The, I don't know, dehumidifier part of it or whatever wasn't working last week. It was 80% humidity inside.
00:05:56
imronssweatyballs
oh
00:05:58
imronssweatyballs
I don't know why you guys don't just work from home.
00:05:59
Chris
It was right.
00:06:01
Chris
um Well, I left. and Well, I, so I took Friday off, so I worked Thursday and there were only like three of us there and that's when it started to get really bad with humidity. So I messaged the HVAC company and they sent somebody over and like an hour after I left,
Workman's Comp Stories
00:06:20
Chris
they said it had gotten better.
00:06:22
Chris
So, but yeah, I had workman's comp hearing and got to, uh, my wife pointed out that the defense attorney was the public defender from my cousin Vinny.
00:06:38
imronssweatyballs
Nice.
00:06:39
Chris
He looked and sounded like him. Yeah. yeah
00:06:44
imronssweatyballs
Nice.
00:06:44
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Asked me if either of my parents had a history of prostate cancer.
00:06:51
imronssweatyballs
Oh, you should have said yes, my mother.
00:06:54
Chris
I just thought, but no
00:06:58
Chris
ah
00:07:00
imronssweatyballs
My mother was the first case of prostate cancer in the country and a female. i would what ah I mean, I would have lost my claim right then and there, but have been worth it. So you've enjoyed the workman's comp system. Isn't it great?
00:07:17
Chris
Something. but And the hearing place is like this little hole in the wall in Cambridge behind the Walmart.
00:07:27
Chris
So...
00:07:28
imronssweatyballs
The one I have to go to is in Hartford County, and it's basically like, you know, secure tech and like, you know, it's an industrial park, and then there's a the commission right in the middle of it all. It's like, this is weird.
00:07:42
Chris
Yeah. That's like, you know, brief stuff with my lawyer and everything. she like, okay, yeah, here we go. Yeah. Well, let's go in and you know, you can listen to, you know, how it's going on, you know the case right before you. So you can get the ideas. like Okay.
00:07:55
Chris
I felt so bad for this guy before me, his lawyer sucked.
00:07:58
imronssweatyballs
oh
00:07:59
Chris
And I was like, you're getting nothing, but your lawyer has screwed you over. was like, I, at one point I wouldn't say objection.
00:08:06
imronssweatyballs
yeah
00:08:09
Chris
Yeah. So
00:08:12
imronssweatyballs
It really sucks in Maryland especially because we have a presumptive cancer law, right?
00:08:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:08:23
imronssweatyballs
It just feels like why should we have to fight for anything? It should just be like, yep.
00:08:29
imronssweatyballs
I don't know.
00:08:32
imronssweatyballs
It's... a
00:08:32
Chris
That was a point the, yeah the defense layer. Well, the day that you were notified that you did have cancer, why couldn't you go back to work that day? was like, so was diagnosed with cancer.
00:08:44
Chris
That's kind of a emotional thing.
00:08:44
imronssweatyballs
yeah
00:08:47
Chris
Yeah. Well, how about the days of your biopsy? You couldn't work those days? no
00:08:51
imronssweatyballs
No, they stuck a needle on my asshole, sir.
00:08:51
Chris
No, have you?
00:08:53
imronssweatyballs
Sigh.
00:08:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:08:56
Chris
Oh, golly day. and So we'll see.
00:09:01
imronssweatyballs
the whole thing makes me sick
00:09:02
Chris
It's like, it's like my wife and I were talking. It's like, you know, I don't want money of this. I just, know, just pay for my, you know, the time that I've had to use. And when I do have to get treatment, pay for that. That's all I want.
00:09:15
imronssweatyballs
yeah that was my thing when I went there and I ended up getting money out of but i told the lawyer I said I just want to make sure that I get treatment if I need it for the rest of my life that's all I really care about and he's like well you know
00:09:25
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:29
imronssweatyballs
ah Blah blah blah. like, look up. You know, he gets paid.
00:09:32
Chris
I know you need to get money. i get it You get your money, whatever.
00:09:33
imronssweatyballs
Right. Right.
00:09:38
imronssweatyballs
I just...
00:09:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:41
imronssweatyballs
I kind of like Anne Arundel's system where they just pay you a bounty. yeah like you get her You get this, they give you that money, and you don't have to fight it.
00:09:49
Chris
That's kind of nice.
00:09:50
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. There's no questions. It's just done. Done.
00:09:55
Chris
Yeah, but that's yeah that's how you end up with the Joe Dirts.
00:09:58
imronssweatyballs
It's true.
00:10:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:10:00
imronssweatyballs
It's true.
00:10:02
Chris
oh
00:10:02
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, I mean, I had a talk, I took a class with a guy from Baltimore a couple of years ago, and he was talking about his, one of his ancillary duties is he's the workers' comp captain.
00:10:13
imronssweatyballs
So basically his job is to, like, investigate all the people that are out on workers' comp to make sure that they're not fake.
00:10:13
Chris
Oh, okay.
00:10:21
imronssweatyballs
And he said basically Baltimore at any time has a battalion's worth of people out on workers' comp. Yeah.
00:10:26
Chris
Wow.
00:10:28
imronssweatyballs
I was like, ah I tried to break that down. So for like Salisbury, it'd be like one, two people maybe, right at our size would have to be off all the time on workers' comp.
00:10:39
Chris
oh maybe but Maybe four.
00:10:42
imronssweatyballs
Maybe four.
00:10:43
Chris
But still, yeah.
00:10:44
imronssweatyballs
We don't reach that number. mean, we have people out on workers' comp every once while, but it's not like we have four of them out at the same time.
00:10:47
Chris
Yeah.
00:10:50
Chris
Right. Yeah.
00:10:55
imronssweatyballs
It's weird.
00:10:56
Chris
An entire battalion.
00:10:57
imronssweatyballs
You said they have basically have a battalion source of people all the time.
00:10:57
Chris
God.
00:11:01
Chris
Sure.
00:11:02
imronssweatyballs
So what, a battalion is um over 100 people in Baltimore, probably?
00:11:06
Chris
I would. Probably. Yeah.
00:11:08
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Insane.
00:11:13
imronssweatyballs
so and And that's probably why Anne Arundel just says, nah, we'll just pay you.
00:11:18
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:11:18
imronssweatyballs
Get you back to work, we'll pay you.
00:11:20
Chris
Yep.
00:11:21
imronssweatyballs
Because that was my thing with my workers' comp thing, is like they dicked around so long, I just, I want to go back to work.
00:11:27
Chris
Yep.
00:11:27
imronssweatyballs
I don't want to be on light duty.
00:11:28
Chris
Yeah.
00:11:28
imronssweatyballs
i don't want to go to some other job description. I want to do my job and go back to work.
00:11:32
Chris
Yeah. Let's say we're about to have somebody go out on workman's comp for their shoulder.
00:11:39
imronssweatyballs
Right.
00:11:40
Chris
And the question was asked today. well, I know they're coming back late duty in September, but between their surgery and then, could they like do some run reviews and stuff? I said, nope, nope.
00:11:53
Chris
can We cannot play that game. They can't do anything until they're cut loose for late duty because you that
00:11:54
imronssweatyballs
Right.
Firefighting Challenges
00:12:00
Chris
is a line you don't want to cross.
00:12:02
imronssweatyballs
Nope. And not only do you know when i cross, like, you're opening yourself up to a lot of shit.
00:12:07
Chris
Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:12:08
imronssweatyballs
I mean, when I went out, the the one doctor said, just don't use your left arm when you pull hose you'll be fine.
00:12:16
Chris
ah Yeah, it's.
00:12:18
imronssweatyballs
I don't think that's how it works, bud.
00:12:20
Chris
And it it kills me the lack of understanding of like the simple job functions. Yeah.
00:12:27
imronssweatyballs
Well, what I discovered... we and this is not us salisbury but it's the fire service we don't have a good task list to take to the lawyer and doctors because i tried to go to the doctor and say this is what he did he's like well what do you actually do in a day i'm like i can't tell you i don't have a list of that he's like you i need that i'm like fuck i don't know i could do anything right
00:12:39
Chris
Yeah.
00:12:45
Chris
yeah
00:12:48
Chris
yeah i Yeah. i get a cat I got a cat out of a tree. i you know pulled a 250 for a commercial fire.
00:12:59
Chris
unclogged somebody's toilet and i fixed a life alert.
00:13:03
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, and they were like, well, how much does a length the hose weigh? And I was like, I have no idea. but I don't know. Right, yeah, like, and is that dry or wet?
00:13:08
Chris
um ah I don't know. More than a peck? yeah
00:13:13
imronssweatyballs
I don't know. It's they're it's fucking heavy.
00:13:14
Chris
yeah A few stones, Doc.
00:13:18
Chris
Yeah. God.
00:13:19
imronssweatyballs
Everything I do is heavy.
00:13:22
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, my dietician, she laughs. She's always like, because always underplay that I'm not an active person. She's like, you work in a fire department. Your activity level is already higher than everybody...
00:13:33
imronssweatyballs
around you like hmm you don't know what we do
00:13:34
Chris
Yeah.
00:13:38
Chris
Yeah.
00:13:43
imronssweatyballs
if we ended burning houses every day then yeah i'd say that oh my dumb ass shift the other day saturday it's hot out and they're like i hope we don't get a fire day said why not well it's hot out i said it's gonna be hot in the fire anyways you idiots what does it matter
00:13:46
Chris
yeah yeah yeah it
00:14:04
Chris
yeah but then you can't come outside and cool off but actually no when you come out of fire it does relatively feel cooler at first yeah yeah
00:14:10
imronssweatyballs
ah tell you this, it's a lot colder outside than it is inside.
00:14:15
imronssweatyballs
And though nothing better than taking that damn coat off. I don't care if it's 160 degrees outside. It's still cooler.
00:14:20
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:24
imronssweatyballs
Yeah.
00:14:27
Chris
oh
00:14:27
imronssweatyballs
I did the sauna today, stepped out into the so out of the summer heat, and i was like I don't know if I'm still in the sauna.
00:14:28
Chris
Well.
00:14:33
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. It's very, very similar out there.
00:14:36
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, yeah.
00:14:37
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't like the heat. It almost made me not finish my coffee this morning.
00:14:46
imronssweatyballs
Oh, that's big doings.
00:14:47
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:50
imronssweatyballs
I had soup for dinner.
00:14:51
Chris
Oh.
00:14:52
imronssweatyballs
like I went to the store to pick up my soup fixings, and the lady of the grocery store, it's a little mom and pop grocery store, she's always very nice. She's always interested in what I'm buying. It's very weird, a little bit. She's are you buying all this for? I'm like, oh, I'm making bean soup.
00:15:05
imronssweatyballs
She's like, soup? It's summer. I'm like, do you eat hot steak in the summer, or do you only eat cold steak? I don't know. What are you talking about?
00:15:17
Chris
Yeah, that's true.
00:15:17
imronssweatyballs
i my
00:15:19
Chris
But yeah you just think of soup as that. fall winter Hardy.
00:15:25
imronssweatyballs
I mean, I get that, but do we only eat cold food in the summer?
00:15:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:15:29
Chris
No, but it's just one of those. that It's, I don't know, a weird psychological thing. Like I can not wrap my head around, you know, grilled cheese and tomato soup tonight.
00:15:39
imronssweatyballs
Hmm.
00:15:41
Chris
So
00:15:43
imronssweatyballs
I mean, I don't really like a grilled cheese and tomato. What do you mean tomatoes? You hate tomatoes.
00:15:48
Chris
I do, but I'll, so i I'll drink tomato soup, but what I do is I put it in a mug with little bit of salt, pepper, and I drink that and eat the grilled cheese.
00:16:00
imronssweatyballs
Hmm.
00:16:01
Chris
Yeah. So it's like a hot V8.
00:16:04
imronssweatyballs
That sounds appealing. I mean, I like V8 and I just never was was like, let me heat this up.
00:16:07
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:11
imronssweatyballs
What are you doing? Oh, I'm warming up my V8.
00:16:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:14
Chris
Let's say I will meet.
00:16:15
imronssweatyballs
I mean,
00:16:16
Chris
I don't eat cold applesauce.
00:16:19
imronssweatyballs
what?
00:16:22
Chris
yeah I always heat my applesauce up.
00:16:25
imronssweatyballs
What?
00:16:26
Chris
Yeah. Because my mom would make homemade applesauce and we would always get some, you know, like soon she made it. So it's nice and fresh and, you know, just been blended up. So, know, it just got used to applesauce being warm.
00:16:39
imronssweatyballs
This is kind of barging onto my topic for the day, which is weird. But what?
00:16:44
Chris
well, we'll hold it then.
00:16:47
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:16:49
imronssweatyballs
Huh.
00:16:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:51
imronssweatyballs
Huh. Yeah, I only eat my ice cream hot.
00:16:52
Chris
yeah
00:16:54
imronssweatyballs
I always boil it before I eat it.
00:16:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:55
imronssweatyballs
This
00:16:56
Chris
That doesn't make any sense. ah
00:16:59
imronssweatyballs
is hot milk.
00:16:59
Chris
Like like apple pie. I'll take if we have left to wrap a pie, I'll take a slice, put it in the microwave.
00:17:05
imronssweatyballs
Well, that that checks. I mean, little...
00:17:08
Chris
Yeah, that's app applesauce is just ground up apple pie.
00:17:16
imronssweatyballs
Do you bake your apples before you eat them?
00:17:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:24
Chris
It's like every now and again she would make pear sauce. It was just way too gritty. Because pears already have that weird gritty texture to them. It's just not good.
00:17:35
imronssweatyballs
ah lost Chris.
00:17:36
Chris
Oh, are you still there? Uh-oh.
00:17:38
imronssweatyballs
Is it me or is it him? Oh boy. Oh, I got him.
00:17:43
Chris
but Okay.
00:17:44
imronssweatyballs
You got me?
00:17:45
Chris
Yeah, got you. I never lost you.
00:17:46
imronssweatyballs
I lost you. I lost you.
00:17:49
Chris
Weird. Yeah. Yeah, I don't understand why payers have that grittiness, but they just don't make a good sauce, in my opinion.
00:17:56
imronssweatyballs
I'm gonna, this is a hot take. I don't really like pears.
00:18:00
Chris
I don't think that's a hot take. I think that's a valid take.
00:18:04
imronssweatyballs
They're fine. And they're never the right ripeness.
00:18:05
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:08
imronssweatyballs
And they're just, ah they're not worth, they're almost like avocados to me. They're just not worth the trouble.
00:18:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:15
imronssweatyballs
Yeah.
00:18:16
Chris
Yeah. and it's Side tangent. why Why in Star Wars did Anakin
Humorous Takes on Food and Star Wars
00:18:20
Chris
use a fork and knife to eat a pear?
00:18:23
imronssweatyballs
Because he's a psychopath.
00:18:25
Chris
Well, yeah, okay. I guess that tracks, yeah.
00:18:27
imronssweatyballs
ah ah
00:18:30
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:30
imronssweatyballs
I think, think if you're looking at the morality of Anakin Skywalker, psychopath. He's a psychopath.
00:18:38
Chris
That's before he went really crazy.
00:18:40
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, but I think he's like crazy the whole time. He's just unlimited power.
00:18:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:45
Chris
Oh, really? Just, you know, being... a slave child and gambled on and ripped from your home. And yeah, no, that, that won't mess with you.
00:18:56
imronssweatyballs
ah grab but but I'm not saying psychological trauma doesn't have anything to do with it, but you know.
00:19:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:19:01
imronssweatyballs
Also, he might have just been a psychopath on top of that.
00:19:05
Chris
Yeah. yeah Yeah.
00:19:08
imronssweatyballs
I drank way too much seltzer water way too quickly.
00:19:10
Chris
Hmm. Oh, I beat, uh, expedition 33. Yeah.
00:19:14
imronssweatyballs
Oh, nice.
00:19:16
Chris
yeah
00:19:16
imronssweatyballs
And...
00:19:17
Chris
It's good. I liked it.
00:19:19
imronssweatyballs
Good.
00:19:21
Chris
but jamael Chris.
00:19:23
imronssweatyballs
Je me perds, Chris. Je me perds, Ron.
00:19:24
Chris
But yeah, yeah. Good story. Definitely. You know, something we haven hadn't seen before. ah There is one like optional boss that I don't know that I'll ever beat. And I wanted to rip my face off trying to play it the other day.
00:19:41
Chris
It's like if it hits you one time, you're dead. So you got to parry or dodge everything pretty much. yeah oh So.
00:19:51
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. i yeah
00:19:53
Chris
But yeah, other than that, you know, I had fun. Yeah, definitely.
00:19:55
imronssweatyballs
Good.
00:19:56
Chris
Once I got the parry mechanic down, i was like, oh, now it's game on. So.
00:20:02
imronssweatyballs
I am playing a game called Lost in Random, the Eternal Die.
00:20:08
Chris
Oh.
00:20:08
imronssweatyballs
It's a roguelike that's pretty fun.
00:20:11
Chris
OK.
00:20:12
imronssweatyballs
um
00:20:15
Chris
Wait, what did you say it was called again?
00:20:17
imronssweatyballs
Lost in Random, the Eternal Die.
00:20:20
Chris
Okay.
00:20:21
imronssweatyballs
have no idea when it came out.
00:20:26
imronssweatyballs
But it's a roguelike that, you know, every time you die, but you get keep your skills, which is nice.
00:20:36
Chris
Okay. Yeah. At least it's not a full reset.
00:20:39
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. So.
00:20:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:20:43
imronssweatyballs
That's what I've been playing. I started playing Blueprints, but I need a break from that game sometimes.
00:20:45
Chris
Cool.
00:20:49
Chris
yeah Yeah, I've heard a lot about that game.
00:20:52
imronssweatyballs
It's frustrating and annoying at the same time.
00:20:59
Chris
Oh, that's that sounds delightful.
00:21:01
imronssweatyballs
Because like the puzzles get harder. Which sucks.
00:21:06
Chris
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
00:21:08
imronssweatyballs
So like when you do the puzzle once, it gets harder the next time, which sucks.
00:21:14
Chris
Oof, yeah.
00:21:15
imronssweatyballs
Yeah.
00:21:17
Chris
was like, the other night, my wife was like, why don't you blow off some steam? Go play a game. i was like, that's not how that works.
00:21:21
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. It's just how to get more rage into the system.
00:21:25
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:21:26
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah.
00:21:30
Chris
Well, you ready for topic one?
00:21:32
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, yeah.
00:21:34
Chris
All right.
00:21:34
imronssweatyballs
It's weird because I had thought about this today when I was leaving the gym.
00:21:40
Chris
Okay.
00:21:42
imronssweatyballs
And I was thinking about...
00:21:42
Chris
Yes, all men's balls stick to their legs.
00:21:45
imronssweatyballs
yeah Well, was thinking more about diets.
00:21:48
Chris
Okay.
00:21:49
imronssweatyballs
And like, so obviously I spend almost all of my adult life dieting for the rest of my life, seems like. um And I can and stop drinking.
00:21:59
imronssweatyballs
Like I haven't had alcohol in, I don't know, however many months to eat, right?
00:22:03
Chris
Okay. Yeah.
00:22:04
imronssweatyballs
I can cut carbs out for a while. I can cut meat out of my diet. I can cut, you know, sugar out of my diet. But the thing I can't ever cut out of my diet is pizza.
00:22:18
Chris
Ooh, yeah.
00:22:18
imronssweatyballs
I always have to have, and that's what, it breaks my low carb diets. it It's always pizza. And I think, I was thinking about it I'm like, because we had pizza last night, you know, and I restrained myself. I didn't eat a whole pizza, though I could have.
00:22:34
Chris
Yeah, that's easy to do.
00:22:35
imronssweatyballs
It's easy to do, you know, and I was thinking think about it today. I was like, you know, think that goes back to being like childhood. Because when I was a kid,
00:22:46
imronssweatyballs
pizza was like the one family comfort food we had. Pizza and Chinese food, right?
00:22:51
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:22:52
imronssweatyballs
Like I always will eat Chinese food and I'll always eat pizza food.
00:22:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:22:55
imronssweatyballs
And I don't know, a that I could ever or should break that. I don't think I could ever break myself of the habit of eating pizza.
00:23:05
Chris
yeah
00:23:06
imronssweatyballs
I don't, and there's gotta be foods like there's other, like you're just talking about your applesauce. It goes back to so your childhood.
00:23:13
Chris
yeah
00:23:14
imronssweatyballs
Does all this this stuff just go back to what we ate was kids?
00:23:21
Chris
Probably on some level.
00:23:23
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, he's gotta because...
00:23:24
Chris
because Yeah.
00:23:26
imronssweatyballs
And like, I like a very specific kind of pizza that most pizza places don't do. I'll eat other pizzas, right? I'm... out um
00:23:33
Chris
Wait, what's your special kind of pizza?
00:23:36
imronssweatyballs
So I can only describe it as like a Delaware style pizza. It's very thick cheese, very doughy crust, lot a lot of sauce.
00:23:44
Chris
Hmm.
00:23:46
imronssweatyballs
And it's something that little pizza shops in Newcastle County used to do.
00:23:47
Chris
Hmm.
00:23:52
imronssweatyballs
And there's only like a handful left to do it because they all went to like New York style pizza, which kind of sucks to me because like we had our own thing.
00:24:01
Chris
Yeah.
00:24:02
imronssweatyballs
and Grotto's is not our thing. I'm sorry, Grotto's.
00:24:04
Chris
Oh gosh.
00:24:05
imronssweatyballs
You're not Delaware's Pizza.
00:24:05
Chris
Oh my God. The weird spiral sauce.
00:24:07
imronssweatyballs
You put the weird salt, it's like so sweet sauce with cheddar cheese on your pizza, you're maniac.
00:24:12
Chris
ah Yeah. hey Yeah. My wife likes grottos. I'm like, that there's something wrong with you.
00:24:18
imronssweatyballs
I think your wife's from, you know, Western Maryland.
00:24:20
Chris
Yeah. and That's part of it, too.
00:24:23
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, I mean, you can't trust her.
00:24:23
Chris
Waitie-toity. Hmm.
00:24:26
imronssweatyballs
She come over here visit.
00:24:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:24:28
imronssweatyballs
She still come here.
00:24:28
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so you gotta get, yeah, like a little Italian joint growing up, Sal's. That's where we went and got pizza, and yeah, it was, yeah.
00:24:40
imronssweatyballs
yeah And like to this day, I mean, i prefer a tangier pizza sauce.
00:24:42
Chris
Yeah, I mean
00:24:47
imronssweatyballs
And I know yeah the whole internet can and be mad at me. Pizza is is at its fundamental core. If you say I would like pizza, you mean cheese pizza.
00:24:59
Chris
Yeah.
00:25:00
imronssweatyballs
Anything other than pizza with any topping, any topping, you're borderlining on heresy.
00:25:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:25:07
Chris
It's just accoutrement.
00:25:09
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, because... So you say, I like sausage pizza. You don't like sausage pizza. You like sausage, and you're just trying to shove it into whatever form factor you're eating. You like pepperoni? No, you don't. Nobody likes pepperoni pizza. It's gross.
00:25:23
Chris
What? That pepperoni pizza is delightful.
00:25:25
imronssweatyballs
It adds rubbery salt to your pizza. Gross.
00:25:28
Chris
Robert, what kind of pepperonis are you eating?
00:25:31
imronssweatyballs
All pepperoni sucks.
00:25:31
Chris
Robbery? No.
00:25:33
imronssweatyballs
It's either thin little discs of grossness or big chunks of curled...
00:25:37
Chris
There's, there's the little, the little small ones that crisp up and they make the little cups or there's the thick cut.
00:25:38
imronssweatyballs
ah
00:25:43
imronssweatyballs
Now that's gross. You as well just put bologna on there.
00:25:45
Chris
Yeah. No, no, no.
00:25:48
imronssweatyballs
It's gross. And I'm top i sorry.
00:25:51
Chris
A nice mortadelle.
00:25:52
imronssweatyballs
World. Vordadell dough and Hawaiian pizza. No, it's not pizza.
00:25:58
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:26:00
imronssweatyballs
And I'm going I'm going to piss off Italy. Margarita pizza. Also not pizza.
00:26:06
Chris
Oh, that's gross.
00:26:07
imronssweatyballs
It's fine. It's,
00:26:08
Chris
No, it's great a giant tomato slice on there.
00:26:11
imronssweatyballs
Well, tomatoes are good. You're just a maniac.
00:26:12
Chris
no they're not. No. No.
00:26:15
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, but pizza is cheese, pizza, cheese, sauce, crust, pizza.
00:26:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:26:22
imronssweatyballs
I'm sorry. wellll I'll die on this hill.
00:26:24
Chris
Hmm.
00:26:26
imronssweatyballs
Because you can't judge a pizza place on its Hawaiian pizza. Oh, it tastes like pineapple sauce.
00:26:30
Chris
No.
00:26:31
imronssweatyballs
Who gives a crap?
00:26:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:26:32
imronssweatyballs
And barbecue chicken, barbecue pizza. That's an abomination. Get the out of here.
00:26:36
Chris
ah Well, then you get to it's just a flatbread.
00:26:39
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, you're just having flatbread.
Food Debates and Experiences
00:26:40
imronssweatyballs
Fine, call flatbread.
00:26:41
Chris
Yeah, you're it's an or really what it is an open face sandwich.
00:26:46
imronssweatyballs
Which is another term I hate. I just talked about this the other day. You can't have open-faced sandwiches. It's why hot dogs are not sandwiches. Hot dogs are not sandwiches. there are It's one piece of bread.
00:26:58
imronssweatyballs
A sandwich is bread, some sort of meat or stuffing bread. It's two slices of bread. Stinked two slices of bread make a sandwich. You sandwich it between two slices of bread.
00:27:13
Chris
ah So wait, so like a hoagie, that's not a sandwich?
00:27:15
imronssweatyballs
Not a sandwich. It's a hoagie. It's one piece of bread. It's
00:27:22
Chris
ah
00:27:23
imronssweatyballs
not a sandwich. I know. Some people call it a sub sandwich.
00:27:25
Chris
So wait, if I, if, so if I take an English muffin in the morning and I cut it almost all the way, but I still hinge it and I put my bacon, egg and cheese inside, it's not,
00:27:26
imronssweatyballs
You're wrong.
00:27:37
imronssweatyballs
I feel like now you're you're you're you're trying to game the system because it is two slices of bread at that point. You're just trying to, you know, cause controversy.
00:27:50
Chris
Yeah. Well, hot dog bun can be two separate pieces of.
00:27:53
imronssweatyballs
No, it's not. It's one slice of bread. It is one.
00:27:58
Chris
Oh, God. Do you remember when you were a kid and you ran out of hot dog buns and your mom would take the piece of bread and wrap it around the hot dog?
00:28:05
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, the white bread. Yeah.
00:28:06
Chris
It was so bad.
00:28:08
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, and you know why it wasn't a sandwich?
00:28:09
Chris
bad.
00:28:09
imronssweatyballs
Because it was one piece of white bread.
00:28:13
Chris
So wait, if you put two pieces of bread, it would have been better taste.
00:28:18
imronssweatyballs
It would have been a sandwich. I'm not saying it would better or worse. I'm just saying it would have been a sandwich.
00:28:24
imronssweatyballs
I'm just saying sandwich means two slices of bread. Sandwiched between them. Which is why I think your conversation about a breakfast sandwich is still a sandwich because you are mushing the bread down holding on to two slices of bread at that point.
00:28:39
Chris
ah I don't know. So what was your favorite sandwich growing up?
00:28:46
imronssweatyballs
ah Oh, i I really liked corned beef and Swiss. That was like kind of my go-to.
00:28:56
Chris
What kind of child eats cornbread corned beef in Swiss?
00:29:01
imronssweatyballs
um And I had it on onn rye. Yeah, with a little mustard.
00:29:05
Chris
did you have
00:29:06
imronssweatyballs
Yeah.
00:29:06
Chris
Was there a delicatessen in your kitchen or something?
00:29:09
imronssweatyballs
ah No, but we went to the deli all the time.
00:29:12
Chris
Yeah. Shh.
00:29:13
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, we usually had corned beef and soy sauce in my house, and we'd have, you know little pickle, a little yellow mustard, two pieces of beefsteak rye. Bam! That's my go-to sandwich.
00:29:23
Chris
I ah grew up eating cheese and mustard sandwiches.
00:29:27
imronssweatyballs
Gross.
00:29:28
Chris
It's a slice of cheese, some yellow mustard, two pieces of bread.
00:29:34
imronssweatyballs
I can tell you what my go-to sandwich will never be. Peanut butter and jelly because it's gross.
00:29:41
Chris
i'll I won't do jelly, but just a peanut butter sandwich. Yeah, that's pretty good.
00:29:45
imronssweatyballs
That's disgusting. that That's an abomination.
00:29:50
Chris
On a nice sweet potato roll.
00:29:52
imronssweatyballs
Oh, God. Yeah,
00:29:55
Chris
Now that's too much.
00:29:57
imronssweatyballs
but at least it's sandwich. Now, if it's on a roll, it's not a sandwich because it's on a roll.
00:30:04
Chris
ah
00:30:06
imronssweatyballs
I don't know why this conversation happened, but we just had this conversation about hot dogs and sandwiches, and I said they're not sandwiches.
00:30:06
Chris
But when you.
00:30:09
Chris
yeah Yeah.
00:30:11
imronssweatyballs
so It's fundamentally not.
00:30:12
Chris
Yeah. Oh yeah. And so I tangent to your yeah know diet conversation. One of your ah minions.
00:30:23
Chris
was complaining the other day that you know, now that you've gone back to vegetarian, they have to eat vegetarian.
00:30:30
imronssweatyballs
What? Who?
00:30:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:30:32
imronssweatyballs
Which one of them? The short one?
00:30:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:30:36
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Not one time have I made them eat vegetarian. Not one time. I joke with them. but Also, step it up your game and start cooking then.
00:30:49
imronssweatyballs
How about that?
00:30:49
Chris
yeah
00:30:50
imronssweatyballs
Maybe we don't make the lieutenant we cook every day.
00:30:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:30:53
imronssweatyballs
I cooked a delicious vegetable rice, fried rice the other day.
00:30:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:30:56
imronssweatyballs
They were like, what's our protein going to be?
00:30:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:30:58
imronssweatyballs
I said tofu. And they're like, no we good boom boom
00:31:04
Chris
We had tofu the other night.
00:31:04
imronssweatyballs
but I wouldn't.
00:31:05
Chris
It was good.
00:31:06
imronssweatyballs
I wouldn't make them eat my vegetarian food. I just cooked fried rice and then I cook ah had them cook their little chicken next to it. then they could put their chicken on top. And even the old grumpy one was like, this is pretty good.
00:31:20
Chris
What the old man?
00:31:21
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah.
00:31:23
Chris
He must have to cook that but plenty long, though, for his teeth to be able to...
00:31:26
imronssweatyballs
Well, you got to mush up the chicken real good.
00:31:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:31:28
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:31:29
Chris
Oh, God. Chicken is just so gross. God.
00:31:32
imronssweatyballs
It's not ever really worth eating if you really, yeah,
00:31:35
Chris
No. It's a weird texture. As soon as you take it out of the package, it smells like rot.
00:31:42
imronssweatyballs
yeah.
00:31:42
Chris
Ugh.
00:31:43
imronssweatyballs
And like, so obviously when I eat meat and I'm trying to eat protein, I eat a lot of chicken because it's cheapish.
00:31:43
Chris
Ugh.
00:31:54
imronssweatyballs
It's not any cheap anymore, but it's cheapish form of protein, but you never enjoy You're just like, oh, this is just meat I'm shoving in my mouth.
00:32:01
Chris
Right. Yeah. Yeah, it's like nobody just cooks...
00:32:03
imronssweatyballs
I mean, like I get the appeal of a steak.
00:32:07
Chris
Yeah, a steak. A nice steak. You cook it on its own, it's going to have a good taste to it. If you just throw a chicken breast and cook it the same way, gross.
00:32:12
imronssweatyballs
Mm-hmm.
00:32:16
imronssweatyballs
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:32:17
Chris
And it gets that weird like film stuff in the pan. Ugh.
00:32:22
imronssweatyballs
And nope. You never feel, like, good about, eat like, cooking chicken. You're always like, is this cooked enough? Yeah,
00:32:28
Chris
Oh yeah. Well, in every step you do, you're like, I'm washing my hands again because I might've touched it.
00:32:31
imronssweatyballs
yeah, yeah.
00:32:33
Chris
Oh God, did that touch it? I got to throw that away or sterilize it or yeah.
00:32:35
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah. It's definitely one of the advantages of eating vegetarian is you don't like, you don't feel like you're going to give yourself salmonella from undercooking your beans.
00:32:46
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:47
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. But chicken is kind of gross.
00:32:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:52
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Nice pork chop. I get it. Nice steak.
00:32:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:55
imronssweatyballs
I get it. Chicken is just like you're shoveling food in your mouth because you have to eat something.
00:32:59
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. mean, that's like my brother the other day. He's like, yeah, i got a big thing of ground Turkey. You know, it's like, what? He's like, well, I got put a lot spice into it. So it tastes like something i was like, no.
00:33:10
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, then just eat mushrooms.
00:33:12
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Or tofu.
00:33:15
imronssweatyballs
I was thinking the other can you, like, physically, if you just ate protein powder, right, as your protein source and vegetables, you'd be fine, right?
00:33:23
Chris
Yeah.
00:33:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:33:29
Chris
I would think so. Cause there aren't any essential amino acids that come from beef or poultry. It's
00:33:37
imronssweatyballs
Oh, there are. but you can get them from beans and rice and supplements.
00:33:41
Chris
supplements. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. yeah
00:33:44
imronssweatyballs
But I think if you just ate protein powder, whey protein, soybean protein, whatever protein powder you want, and vegetables, I think you would be fine.
00:33:53
Chris
yeah
00:33:54
imronssweatyballs
And probably healthier than I am now.
00:33:56
Chris
yeah
00:34:01
imronssweatyballs
That's kind of my ah new shtick.
00:34:01
Chris
know
00:34:03
imronssweatyballs
I eat a lot of protein powder.
00:34:04
Chris
Yeah. Just dry scooping it.
00:34:07
imronssweatyballs
well Just dry scooping it. Just a spoon in my in the container.
00:34:15
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:34:18
Chris
Yeah.
00:34:19
imronssweatyballs
Well, this rant was brought to you by the letter H. For a goddamn hot dog is not a goddamn sandwich.
00:34:28
imronssweatyballs
the The internet is stupid.
00:34:29
Chris
People call it hot dog sandwich.
00:34:31
imronssweatyballs
Nobody calls it that. Not one person has ever said, throw me a hot dog sandwich at a ball game.
00:34:39
imronssweatyballs
The guy selling the hot dogs and't go, hot dog sandwiches here. your hot dog sandwiches. He says, hot dogs, get your hot. See, it's just, there's no. Yeah, it's sandwich.
00:34:52
imronssweatyballs
I'll fight to do
00:34:53
Chris
the states California Colorado and New York have all legally declared the hot to oh how'd you lose me right I don't know I've got good signal hello hello hello nah it's not probably not gonna get cut though cause are you back
00:34:55
imronssweatyballs
it. Well, we lost Chris again.
00:34:59
imronssweatyballs
don't know if it's me or him.
00:35:02
imronssweatyballs
feel like I can say whatever I want in this instance because it's going cut.
00:35:10
imronssweatyballs
I didn't go anywhere.
00:35:12
Chris
Yeah. Oh, I just got a thing from Zencaster. We just reconnected you.
00:35:19
imronssweatyballs
see? It's you.
00:35:20
Chris
Yeah. The states, California, Colorado and New York have legally declared the hot dog to be a sandwich.
00:35:27
imronssweatyballs
Three states that I don't care about their opinion. How about that?
00:35:35
Chris
ah And by the USDA a definitions, a hot dog is technically a sandwich.
00:35:41
imronssweatyballs
Well, they're wrong.
00:35:43
Chris
OK.
00:35:43
imronssweatyballs
The only person's opinion that would change my mind is the Earl of Sandwich. Because the goddamn guy is the Earl of Sandwich.
00:35:53
Chris
Well, ah unless you get a Ouija board out, he's not going be able to tell you much.
00:35:53
imronssweatyballs
And
00:35:57
imronssweatyballs
I think they're still an Earl of Sandwich.
00:35:59
Chris
Is there?
00:36:00
imronssweatyballs
Sure. Those British people, they love to keep their little titles forever. mean, not the same guy the Sandwich is named after, but he's still the Earl of Sandwich, which we've got to give him some... We should find his email address.
00:36:13
Chris
Uh, Earl of Sandwich. It's a noble title in the peerage of England held since its creation by the House Montague. It's associated with Sandwich Kent. Hmm.

Chris
How many times? You know they have to be getting emails all the time.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:38:48
Chris

00:38:50

00:39:01
Chris

Let's just pick one of these places. Disney Springs.
00:39:18
imronssweatyballs
I will say their sandwiches look like sandwiches.
00:39:22
Chris
They have a breakfast burrito.
00:39:24
imronssweatyballs
Not a sandwich, it's a burrito.
00:39:27
Chris
Tommy Earl's Feast. The 1762 original. Roast beef, cheddar, and horseradish.
00:39:36
imronssweatyballs
I don't like their bread.
00:39:40
Chris
It's got a weird look to it.
00:39:42
imronssweatyballs
Yeah.
00:39:45
Chris
um I'm not seeing a hot dog on their menu. Yeah.
00:39:50
imronssweatyballs
I'm not either, but they have subs that they call deli sandwiches, and now I'm um against this company.
00:39:55
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, I saw that. Yeah.
00:39:59
imronssweatyballs
Or are they just really long sandwiches? Maybe they're just really long sandwiches, because they are two slices of bread.
00:40:04
Chris
It does look like two slices of bread, yeah.
00:40:06
imronssweatyballs
Hmm.
00:40:08
Chris
But they also have wraps.
00:40:10
imronssweatyballs
Not a sandwich.
00:40:11
Chris
Pizza bread that looks looks like.
00:40:14
imronssweatyballs
Their pizza bread looks gross.
00:40:15

00:40:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:45
Chris
Yeah. help
00:40:52
imronssweatyballs
How does that make sense?
00:40:53
Chris
That doesn't...
00:40:54
imronssweatyballs
Wouldn't it be by sandwich?
00:40:54
Chris
Wait. you would think.
00:40:56
imronssweatyballs
Or serving?
00:40:58
Chris
Yeah, but everything says per person.
00:40:58
imronssweatyballs
Are we eating the people?
00:41:03
imronssweatyballs
But if two people eat the sandwich, then it's surely not per person.
00:41:07
Chris
Right. Yeah.

This makes no sense, Erlo Sandwich.
00:41:10

imronssweatyballs
And I'm sweating my nuts off. And I was thinking, is my body hair helping me or hindering in this situation?
00:46:07
Chris
Yeah. Is it wicking the moisture away or is it trapping it in?
00:46:11
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. That's what I was thinking about.
00:46:13
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:46:14
imronssweatyballs
It's crazy.
00:46:15
Chris
Yeah.
00:46:17
imronssweatyballs
So...
00:46:20
imronssweatyballs
would
00:46:23
imronssweatyballs
Would you think the problem with evolution and and humans at this point, right, is we you evolve for things that are your sexual prowess, right?
00:46:39
Chris
um
00:46:39
imronssweatyballs
Things that make you more likely to pass your genetics on.
00:46:43
Chris
Well, there's that, but it's also things that keep you alive. Because like all those birds in the Galapagos, they evolve different beaks to eat different seeds.
00:46:54
imronssweatyballs
Right. But those things allow them to live long enough to pass on those genetics.
00:46:59
Chris
Yeah.
00:46:59
imronssweatyballs
Whereas humans now, we just live.
00:47:04
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:04
imronssweatyballs
we just pass everything on.
00:47:06
Chris
Right.
00:47:07
imronssweatyballs
So like.
00:47:07
Chris
Oh, yeah, there's definitely people passing a lot of dumb stuff on.
00:47:10
imronssweatyballs
Sure. But like for us to get rid of body hair, for instance. Only people with lesser body hair would have to mate to reduce the gene pool of the body hair, right?
00:47:24
Chris
Yeah, I guess you're right.
00:47:27
imronssweatyballs
so we're not really evolving in that instance.
00:47:29
Chris
Yeah, yeah, because it's, yeah.
00:47:32
imronssweatyballs
But on the flip side, think we are evolving at a crazy rate in how we use our brain power and how we digest food.
00:47:43
Chris
Really?
00:47:44
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, so if think about this. Your great-great-grandfather. I'll say great-great, right?
00:47:52
Chris
Yes.
00:47:52
imronssweatyballs
so someone born before 1900 lived let let's say they lived their entire life before 1900 the fastest thing around in most of the world was a horse right yeah i know i know i know but stick with me here so the fastest thing was either some sort of animal right like
00:47:55
Chris
yeah Yeah. Okay.
00:48:01
Chris
Okay. Yeah.
00:48:10
Chris
Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
00:48:17
imronssweatyballs
But for the most most ah people in a civilized world, the fastest thing you saw was a horse or a dog, right?
00:48:23
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:24
imronssweatyballs
So you never had to calculate speed on a regular basis.
00:48:24
Chris
Right. Yeah.
00:48:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:33
imronssweatyballs
ah Now you can walk down a road... And you can calculate that cars doing 60 miles an hour are going to intersect with your point in space at roughly this amount of time.
00:48:48
imronssweatyballs
So you can make a decision whether you can cross that road or not.
00:48:51
Chris
Huh?
00:48:52
imronssweatyballs
Right?
00:48:52
Chris
I never really thought of it that way.
00:48:52
imronssweatyballs
like But your great, great, great grandfather couldn't handle that.
00:48:59
Chris
Now.
00:49:00
imronssweatyballs
Wouldn't have to handle that. Right?
00:49:01
Chris
Right. Yeah. Yeah. The brain. Yeah.
00:49:04
imronssweatyballs
And on the...
00:49:04
Chris
and Like you said, they're too worried about not getting scurvy.
00:49:06
imronssweatyballs
Right, and on the digestive side, you're, let's go even a generation further. So great, great, great grandfather, great, great, great, great grandfather. So three three generations of great only ever ate food that was grown within walking distance of him.
00:49:15
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:25
Chris
Yeah. Then a hectare.
00:49:27
imronssweatyballs
Well, yeah there was markets and like some of the food was brought to the markets, but it was all food that could be brought very, very local. so their body never had to digest something that wasn't full of local microbes it was a very very very monotonous diet right like winter was rough because you had less food we are now able to digest crazy diverse foods
00:49:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:42
Chris
Oh. Oh.
00:49:48
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:58
imronssweatyballs
And seemingly, which you know part might be part of the reason we we have had an exponential growth in both obesity and just muscle mass of humans now, is because you're eating ah steady diet of calories that you never were meant to deal with.
00:50:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:50:18
imronssweatyballs
And now we can deal with them. And I think that's where we're evolving, stuff like that. you know if And information processing is crazy compared to what it was.
00:50:28
Chris
Yeah, that's true.
00:50:29
imronssweatyballs
know, do I think we're going to like get rid of body hair soon? No, I don't. But I do think people that are.
00:50:37
Chris
What about my weird pinky toe that I don't need? oh
00:50:41
imronssweatyballs
Well, yeah, like those things. So.
00:50:46
Chris
But it's not like when I met my wife, she was like, Ooh, look at those pinky toes.
00:50:46
imronssweatyballs
Barring.
00:50:50
Chris
You know, it's that.
00:50:52
imronssweatyballs
Well, if you believe some of the science.
00:50:53
Chris
don't
00:50:56
imronssweatyballs
your wife and you had some sort of genetic similarity or opposition that was ideal for you to mate and have children.
00:51:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:11
imronssweatyballs
So I read this weird study that people were like kissing, kissing your partner on your first dating is almost a taste test of your microbiome.
00:51:23
Chris
Really?
00:51:23
imronssweatyballs
and your partner will either be attracted to that microbiome or not like this is really weird
00:51:31
Chris
So there are people out there who are attracted to a micro or microbiome that's Marlboro's and mad dog.
00:51:38
imronssweatyballs
clearly right like clearly that's a thing because those people still reproduce right like that you know but
00:51:42
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:51:46
Chris
Yeah. Oh yeah, they do.
00:51:50
Chris
Yeah. Hmm.
00:51:51
imronssweatyballs
So I do think we evolve. I think our guts evolved like crazy fast. And I think our brains are evolving.
00:51:56
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:58
imronssweatyballs
You know, I always, for some reason, the sci-fi that has always um interest me or felt the most truthful is that we'll just become brains in jars.
00:52:09
Chris
Hmm.
00:52:10
imronssweatyballs
Like our brains will just keep getting bigger and bigger and more. We'll use it in better ways as the generations go.
00:52:15
Chris
Yeah.
00:52:17
imronssweatyballs
Unless we have some cataclyphic event, which is also very possible, right?
00:52:20
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:52:22
imronssweatyballs
That's where i think we're evolving. So I do think we're evolving is my answer to your question.
00:52:27
Chris
like Okay. All right.
00:52:29
imronssweatyballs
You know, i
00:52:29
Chris
All right. You talk about the, um you know, like the two people getting together, having a kid or whatever. i i saw this thing. was a Ted talk or something. And it was the odds of each person's birth are like one in 400 trillion or something like that.
00:52:49
imronssweatyballs
Sure.
00:52:49
Chris
Because when you look at like each individual person's genetic makeup and everything and the time and that it lets all these things have to align for it to happen. It's crazy.
00:53:02
imronssweatyballs
It's crazy, but also that's bunk math. Because like the probability of you being born is almost 100%.
00:53:11
imronssweatyballs
Right?
00:53:12
Chris
Now.
00:53:12
imronssweatyballs
Like because your parents...
00:53:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:15
imronssweatyballs
were attracted to each other for some sort of reason. know you want to get into that.
00:53:18
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:18
imronssweatyballs
so Like, but you know, your parents were attracted to each other and had you for a whatever genetic reason. Right.
00:53:27
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. To shovel horse stalls.
00:53:28
imronssweatyballs
There is something to that. What's that?
00:53:32
Chris
I said to shovel horse stalls.
00:53:33
imronssweatyballs
Right. Right. But, you know, I think about like, think about the average height of Americans in 1776 versus now. Like, versus now
00:53:43
Chris
Oh yeah. 1776 is probably what? Like seven. Yeah. seven
00:53:47
imronssweatyballs
it was less than that.
00:53:48
Chris
yeah
00:53:48
imronssweatyballs
Like, George Washington is is described as a giant of a man, and he was like 6'1".
00:53:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:54
imronssweatyballs
Like, six one and now, you're like, eh, you're normal, tall, right?
00:53:57
Chris
Yeah. yeah yeah
00:54:00
imronssweatyballs
Like, I'm 6'1", or maybe just pushing just under 6'1". I don't feel very tall.
00:54:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:06
imronssweatyballs
But back then, know, you're a giant of a man.
00:54:08
Chris
yeah
00:54:11
imronssweatyballs
You look
00:54:11
Chris
yeah Well, he also had a giant red hair, wooden teeth, scared everybody.
00:54:16
imronssweatyballs
Sure, sure. All those are true.
00:54:20
imronssweatyballs
Didn't have wooden teeth. Had ivory teeth, but that's fine.
00:54:23
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:24
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, but, you know, we're definitely evolving. it's it's
00:54:27
Chris
To reach
00:54:28
imronssweatyballs
It's what we're evolving for. I don't know.
00:54:31
Chris
the apples.
00:54:31
imronssweatyballs
Like, I don't understand the genetic advantage we get out of being taller.
00:54:38
Chris
to re the apples
00:54:43
imronssweatyballs
Right. But, you know, you look at the internet, whether this is right, wrong, or different, you look at the internet bitching about how women only want to date tall guys now.
00:54:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:55
imronssweatyballs
Is that a genetic imperative to date taller men to create taller humans?
00:55:03
imronssweatyballs
I don't know.
00:55:06
imronssweatyballs
Because they're definitely finding tall more attractive. You know, And it's also a weird how each generation seems to have a very different version of attractiveness.
00:55:12
Chris
ah
00:55:20
Chris
yeah I feel bad for my kids because boys are dumb looking nowadays.
00:55:26
imronssweatyballs
Oh my god, they're terrible. What the fuck? Their hair.
00:55:28
Chris
Hair.
00:55:30
imronssweatyballs
Their outfit.
00:55:30
Chris
I saw this young man the other day going to a golf course. it was like a five inch inseam short.
00:55:37
imronssweatyballs
Okay.
00:55:38
Chris
I was like, what?
00:55:41
imronssweatyballs
Okay, well, I saw one of our paramedics, a younger one of our paramedics, and I was like, hey, bud, are you on the way to the Scumbag Festival at the ski resort?
00:55:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:55:52
imronssweatyballs
He's got a gold chain sticking out, and he's got goggles on for sunglasses.
00:55:57
Chris
What?
00:55:57
imronssweatyballs
um like And with his mullet of a head, I'm like, what is going on now? That's just how they dress.
00:56:01
Chris
Paramedic.
00:56:05
Chris
trying to think who this was. Oh.
00:56:07
imronssweatyballs
You're going to see a lot of them next month.
00:56:12
imronssweatyballs
He's be on day work next month.
00:56:14
Chris
oh
00:56:15
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:56:18
Chris
yeah
00:56:19
imronssweatyballs
And their leader is a sergeant on C-Shift. He's the leader of the bad do and making... It's like they took the crappy part of what it was in the 80s and they're bringing it back.
00:56:26
Chris
yeah Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:56:32
imronssweatyballs
And then when I say to him, you look like a scumbag, he's like, what are about? This is how people dress. I'm like, that's how people dressed when I was a kid. The people who were the bad guys in the movies, they dressed like you.
00:56:40
Chris
It's Yeah. Yeah. The mullet.
00:56:43
imronssweatyballs
John Cusack is ready to kick your ass at a ski festival.
00:56:47
Chris
ah yeah yeah just yeah i yeah um ah mullet
00:56:57
imronssweatyballs
Ugh. My...
00:56:59
Chris
like and I'm sorry, the was it the Kentucky Waterfall?
00:57:03
imronssweatyballs
Is that what they call it?
00:57:03
Chris
I think so.
00:57:05
imronssweatyballs
But my hairdresser, or whatever do you want to call her, the person who cuts my hair, she's not a barber.
00:57:09
Chris
Yeah. Right.
00:57:10
imronssweatyballs
She doesn't believe me. But my hairdresser, her husband has a bullet. And we were talking about it.
00:57:15
Chris
Wow. How does she let that happen? Yeah.
00:57:17
imronssweatyballs
That's what I said. I said, you know, um I'm older than her. She's in her twenty s right? And she's her husband's clearly in his 20s as well. And I said, you know, my generation fought to kill all the people with the mullets.
00:57:33
imronssweatyballs
The mullet wars are not talked about. We were strangling people in their sleep to get rid of all the mullets.
00:57:36
Chris
um
00:57:38
Chris
ah
00:57:41
imronssweatyballs
And ultimately we failed because the mullet is back.
00:57:44
Chris
yeah ah here's a article from relentless grooming.com 25 attractive mullet hairstyles for men there are subspecies of mullets
00:57:52
imronssweatyballs
Ugh. Ugh.
00:57:56
imronssweatyballs
No. No. Yeah.
00:57:59
Chris
oh let's oh let's yeah um
00:58:00
imronssweatyballs
No.
00:58:06
Chris
Let's see. Types. There's got to be different names.
00:58:11
imronssweatyballs
I'm sure.
00:58:14
Chris
Oh, gosh. What are they?
00:58:18
imronssweatyballs
Our generation.
00:58:18
Chris
There's the lock the long mullet, the mohawk mullet, the shaggy mullet, the short mullet, the curly mullet, the faded mullet, the modern mullet, the curtain mullet, medium mullet.
00:58:25
imronssweatyballs
No. No, none of these are wrong.
00:58:31
Chris
The mullet undercut. The spiky mullet. The wavy mullet. The burst fade mullet. What the hell?
00:58:36
imronssweatyballs
What do you call the Joe Dirt?
00:58:39
Chris
um I'm going to say that's the classic mullet.
00:58:42
imronssweatyballs
but like are Our generation made fun the
00:58:44
Chris
Oh, I don't know. It might be the high volume mullet.
00:58:46
imronssweatyballs
oh our generation
00:58:47
Chris
Yeah.
00:58:48
imronssweatyballs
made fun of the mullet. We have a whole movie called Joe Dirt making fun of the mullet.
00:58:51
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. yeah
00:58:57
Chris
ah Yeah, because when somebody with a mullet talks to you, you can't take them seriously.
00:59:02
imronssweatyballs
No.
00:59:03
Chris
you mention that if your doctor came in with a mullet?
00:59:03
imronssweatyballs
No. No. Well, it would be really weird if my female doctor had a mullet, but I'm sure there are...
00:59:07
Chris
No.
00:59:10
Chris
There are female mullets, though.
00:59:13
imronssweatyballs
as for
00:59:13
Chris
There are fullets.
00:59:18
imronssweatyballs
it's that It's
Generational Trends and Preferences
00:59:20
imronssweatyballs
it is my most old person thing when I look at how these kids dress and I'm like, please God, no.
00:59:31
imronssweatyballs
And they think it's new, and I'm like, you're just, you're reliving the crappy part of the 80s. And the crappy, the 80s were bad.
00:59:37
Chris
yeah
00:59:40
Chris
um A female mullet can be referred to as a fa-mullet, a lady mullet, a momlet, or simply a modern mullet.
00:59:58
imronssweatyballs
Oh, God, those are terrible pictures.
01:00:00
Chris
Oh, or there's the shulet.
01:00:03
imronssweatyballs
What the hell?
01:00:03
Chris
It's a fusion of shag and a mullet. It's more than just a haircut. It's a rebellious and effortlessly unique statement. Oh man.
01:00:13
imronssweatyballs
Ugh. They just look terrible.
01:00:15
Chris
God. Yeah. Well, the hair bands of the eighties and nineties, they did not look good.
01:00:21
imronssweatyballs
No, they look terrible.
01:00:23
Chris
Giant perms.
01:00:23
imronssweatyballs
Like this... This woman whose picture this is could be a very attractive woman. I don't know. But she just looks like she's on her way to a really seedy Guns N' Roses concert.
01:00:35
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And you, she probably looks like she smells like cigarettes and wine coolers.
01:00:41
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. Yeah.
01:00:44
imronssweatyballs
Yeah. They all vape.
01:00:45
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I just,
01:00:49
imronssweatyballs
Ugh. They all vape. It drives me nuts.
01:00:52
Chris
uh, yeah, that's yeah.
01:00:54
imronssweatyballs
Yeah.
01:00:55
Chris
I don't, I don't understand the vaping either.
01:00:58
imronssweatyballs
I've become the old man.
01:00:59
Chris
Yeah.
01:01:00
imronssweatyballs
Shaking my hands at the Utes.
01:01:02
Chris
ah Oh, you shake the, I'll shake my hand at the wind. so
01:01:07
imronssweatyballs
am u with Damn their damn mullet.
01:01:09
Chris
Yeah.
01:01:10
imronssweatyballs
It's terrible haircut, people.
01:01:12
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. And as somebody who can no longer grow a head of hair, ah damn you people for doing that to your head. I respected my hair when I had hair and this is what happened.
01:01:22
Chris
You treat your hair like it's a playground for drug addicts and you get to have a full luscious head of hair.
01:01:29
imronssweatyballs
ah
01:01:36
imronssweatyballs
yeah I just can't like I can't fathom having my hair that long I just can't my hair touches my ears and I'm like running to the in my haircut I can't do it yeah it's it's it's rough
01:01:44
Chris
Yeah.
01:01:46
Chris
Yeah. yeah Yeah. yeah
01:01:59
imronssweatyballs
And the sunglasses are terrible.
01:02:01
Chris
Oh yeah. Where they have brought back the eighties beach volleyball sunglasses.
01:02:08
imronssweatyballs
Yep. Yep.
01:02:09
Chris
just like a giant wrap of aluminum foil on their face.
01:02:12
imronssweatyballs
It's terrible.
01:02:13
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I just, yeah. It's probably when there's like, they look, but see, we didn't do that. Like in the eighties, we weren't like, Oh, what was cool back in the 60, you know, or the forties that we could bring back.
01:02:27
imronssweatyballs
that's not true to be fair remember swing came back in the 90s it did it did it did it's yeah we do some dumb stuff the swing i remember swing came back i remember zoot suits were a thing
01:02:30
Chris
What did we bring back from the forties? Oh God. It did. Didn't it? Damn it. God. God, we do some dumb stuff.
01:02:45
Chris
and Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:02:48
imronssweatyballs
yeah
01:02:49
Chris
I think that was because the Jim carries the mask.
01:02:52
imronssweatyballs
that could be but
01:02:53
Chris
That could be part of it.
01:02:54
imronssweatyballs
It's just, those things did come back.
01:02:55
Chris
God.
01:02:57
imronssweatyballs
And then for a little while, bell-bottoms came back.
01:02:57
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, those were dumb.
01:03:00
imronssweatyballs
Those are dumb.
01:03:02
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
01:03:03
imronssweatyballs
it What's not ever come back is the browns of the 70s.
01:03:07
Chris
Yeah.
01:03:08
imronssweatyballs
Yeah, the yellow and brown, everything.
