1
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:27.480
It is time to leave your warriors outside in life

2
00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:32.119
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Danielmalley along with Trey Trenholm.

3
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:38.159
Today is Wednesday, July twenty third, two thousand twenty five.

4
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:44.840
Would you enter a real life squid game for a

5
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:47.600
shot at thirty three million dollars?

6
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:49.079
Tray?

7
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:51.439
Are you familiar with squid Game?

8
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:53.439
No?

9
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:59.439
So? Squid Game is a Korean based television show that

10
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:02.920
Netflix put out into the world.

11
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:05.519
I know it's a show on Netflix, but I have

12
00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:07.719
not seen a second of it.

13
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:10.439
All right, Well, the idea of the squid Game is

14
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:18.319
there's this nefarious group of people who invite people from

15
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:21.920
society who are very downtrodden in debt up to their

16
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:26.319
eyeballs for a chance at winning lots and lots of money.

17
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.079
But in order to do it, they have to play

18
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:36.760
some children's games, and those children's games have deadly consequences.

19
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:41.680
So you're familiar with red light green Light? Okay, The

20
00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:45.680
very first game in the very first season of Squid

21
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:50.879
Game that all the participants take part in is a

22
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:53.920
really horrific version of red light green Light, where in

23
00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:58.680
if any movement is detected after red light is said,

24
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:05.239
you immediately get shot and killed. Okay, that's the first game.

25
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:09.400
If you survive that, then there's another game with deadly

26
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:13.159
consequents and so on and so forth until at the end,

27
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:17.280
kind of like Highlander, there's one person remaining. Now granted,

28
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:20.400
they actually get to vote after each round whether or

29
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:22.560
not to continue with the game. But of course, people,

30
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:26.439
it's a really fascinating film because it shows or show.

31
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:33.360
It shows how desperate people can be and how big

32
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:37.439
of a role money plays in our lives. And it's

33
00:02:37.639 --> 00:02:41.280
a class warfare and everything as well. So it's a

34
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:43.400
fascinating show. It's very gory to a lot of people.

35
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:45.639
Some people it's too much for some, but I love

36
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:49.680
the show. I'm about halfway through season three right now.

37
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:52.240
So the reason why I ask you if you would

38
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:56.360
participate in a real life squid game is because it's

39
00:02:56.400 --> 00:02:59.599
an extreme question. But the shocking thing is that in

40
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:03.240
a new survey, forty six percent of people said they

41
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:09.319
would consider participating in a real life squid game, despite

42
00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:12.360
the fact that the game has a ninety nine point

43
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:19.439
eight percent death rate. But you know, thirty three million dollars, I.

44
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:25.000
Mean, it doesn't surprise me. We live in an age

45
00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:29.080
where people will do a lot of weird things for

46
00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:36.000
money and fame. I mean, social media has certainly brought

47
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:38.599
that to the forefront.

48
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:41.199
I still feel like a lot of the people that

49
00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:45.199
answered they consider or would enter into a real life

50
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:49.639
squid Game if given the opportunity with actual deadly consequences.

51
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:52.599
I don't think they've seen the show because I think

52
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.439
they think that they could. Actually, no, you cannot. So

53
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:59.479
in the first season, that first game that I told

54
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.159
you about, Light Green Light, that's actually not that bad

55
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:04.919
as far as some of the other games are concerned.

56
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:08.639
There was another one in an episode of Squid Game

57
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:12.319
I just saw in season three where they have to

58
00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:18.040
do jump rope to survive. But here, here are the

59
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:23.240
catches involved in it. Okay, they're on two raised platforms.

60
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:28.120
Everyone's on one side, and there's two huge dolls doing

61
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:36.120
a huge metal jump rope over a suspended platform that

62
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:41.720
is no wider than a ladder, and if you follow,

63
00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:46.759
you're gonna die because it's like ten stories down. Okay,

64
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:49.959
so you have to jump over the rope across a

65
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:55.879
I don't know, eighteen inch wide pathway to get to

66
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:59.240
the other side, while keeping in mind other players can

67
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:05.639
knock you off. Oh yeah, and you have to do

68
00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:07.519
it inside of twenty minutes or you die.

69
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:14.680
I mean I it goes back. It's like the story

70
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:16.399
we read it.

71
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:18.199
It was a couple of months ago about I think

72
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:19.959
it was about fifty percent of people thought they could

73
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:20.720
land an airplane.

74
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:22.800
HM.

75
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.199
Well, in my defense, when I said yes to that,

76
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:33.040
I'm assuming that I would have autopilot assistance, and I've

77
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:35.639
landed plenty of planes in video games, so I feel

78
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:38.000
like i'd have a good shot at that. I honestly

79
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.000
feel like I would have a better shot at landing

80
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:43.399
a real life jet than I would surviving anything in

81
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:43.959
squid game.

82
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:52.519
We've really got to get it a simulator and let's see.

83
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:55.560
Well, I'm not saying I would definitely be successful. I'm

84
00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:58.439
just saying I would like my odds better at landing

85
00:05:58.439 --> 00:05:58.920
the plane.

86
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:04.199
I will think about it, and next time you're here

87
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:07.000
in Texas, I'll see if I can't get us into

88
00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:10.319
an actual airline simulator, because I know, I know somebody.

89
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:16.160
Okay, is there any way we can select the aircraft?

90
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:17.959
Because I really don't want to be hampered by a

91
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:21.839
seven forty seven. I'd like a little more maneuverability, something

92
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:24.480
along the line, so of like an F sixteen or something,

93
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:26.759
so I could pretend I'm in Iron Eagle.

94
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:32.360
This would probably be a seven three seven, So no

95
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:34.959
barrel rolls, No, I don't think so.

96
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:37.319
Can I at least select a custom paint job in

97
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.279
the setup screen so at least I look good as

98
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:40.839
I go down?

99
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:43.959
You know, I'm not sure about that. Well.

100
00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:48.480
I mean, if I can put like a flame paint

101
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:50.920
job on the cone of the seven thirty seven in

102
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:53.319
the simulator, does it? Does it matter?

103
00:06:56.040 --> 00:06:59.360
I mean, you know, before it burns, Yeah, it'll look great.

104
00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:04.519
Yeah, I'm just just self fulfilling prophecy on there. Again,

105
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:06.399
I'm not saying I could definitely do it. I just

106
00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:09.240
like my odds better of landing the plane than I

107
00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:10.480
do surviving squid game.

108
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:14.680
I mean, I I think.

109
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.759
I'm surprised that we haven't gotten to a point yet.

110
00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:25.120
And you know, you've saw it in movies and years ago,

111
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:27.560
and I think it's only a matter of time before

112
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:31.319
we kind of start seeing some dystopian shows where people

113
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:34.920
really are willing to lose their lives and you know,

114
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:36.879
for a chance at fame or money.

115
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:42.639
Because no one, no one's being physically killed. But they're

116
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:47.319
in other ways, they might be doing very questionable, questionable

117
00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:48.120
things ethically.

118
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:51.040
Oh, I mean people are gonna would literally get killed.

119
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:53.600
No, I'm with you. I think we're probably close to that.

120
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:57.040
That's why that's why shows like this are extreme. But

121
00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:00.560
at the same time, you it feels very real realistic

122
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:02.319
to think that. Yeah, I think a lot of people

123
00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:03.160
today would do this.

124
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:08.839
Yeah, I mean.

125
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:15.079
We see idiots do plenty of other things for free. Yeah,

126
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:19.040
you know, Eagles still on the air.

127
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:35.080
You're in the Treehouse business online at treehouseonair dot com.

128
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:41.639
This sounds like it may be on fire though. Let's

129
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:45.559
get Daniel Cook from COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration into the treehouse.

130
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.799
Their number for your free roof inspection eight three three

131
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:52.960
Cook DFW, the website, cookdfw dot com. The RMS Treehouse

132
00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:57.039
Listeners Foundation exists to help the families of fallen DFW

133
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:00.120
police officers and firefighters killed in the line of do

134
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.159
and we've been very fortunate over the years to partner

135
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:07.240
with some outstanding companies wanting to help. And today we

136
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:10.039
get to add Cook DFW's name to that list of

137
00:09:10.200 --> 00:09:13.200
excellent sponsors to the foundation. Because Daniel, you and your

138
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:15.159
wife Carrie have said, you know what, we love our

139
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:17.279
community and we want to do something to give back

140
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:19.320
to our first responders in DFW.

141
00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:22.919
Right, Dan, That's absolutely correct, and you know, truth be known,

142
00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:27.159
Carrie has given to the foundation for quite so many years.

143
00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:29.960
But now at a company level, I think we are

144
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:34.399
wanting to definitely you know, beef that up and start

145
00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:37.879
giving back to the foundation. And it's unfortunately, this is

146
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:40.720
a foundation nobody wants to have to donate to, but

147
00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:43.279
it's the real world is that these things do happen,

148
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:47.559
and it's the type of foundation that you don't want around,

149
00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:50.200
but you definitely want it to be you know, available

150
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:52.840
to the families that need it. And so over the

151
00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:55.519
next couple of months, you know, a portion of all

152
00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:59.120
the proceeds from the work done from Treehouse Listeners that

153
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:00.840
call in and let us know that they heard about

154
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:03.320
you on the show, we're gonna be donating to the

155
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.639
RMS tree House Listeners Foundation and making sure that we

156
00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:11.159
can keep that very stable, uh in the accounting side,

157
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:14.639
and have funds available that when the families need it,

158
00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:15.480
it's going to be there.

159
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:16.840
So we're very.

160
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:20.120

161
00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:22.080
look forward to try and assist and help it as

I'm Dan, He's Trey. Today is Wednesday, July twenty third,

183
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:39.480
two thousand, twenty five. Trey, are you familiar with the

184
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:40.600
gen z stare?

185
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:44.879
No, No, I'm not.

186
00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:51.480
It looks a little bit like this. It's a very

187
00:11:51.720 --> 00:11:58.720
non plus vacant, void of any thought or emotion stare.

188
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:02.120
It looks kind of like the if I remember correctly,

189
00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:04.159
it looks a little bit like the looks on the

190
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:06.639
faces of the kids and children of the corn back

191
00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:08.200
in the eighties, the Stephen King movie.

192
00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:09.159
Just that.

193
00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:12.080
Kind of look.

194
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:13.639
That look is.

195
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:20.960
My look when I am thinking but don't want to say, Wow,

196
00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:22.600
you really are the dumbest mother.

197
00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:25.960
In the world.

198
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:28.159
To anybody.

199
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:30.519
Yeah, okay, it's that blanket just.

200
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:34.120
Like And that's why the rest of society is having

201
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:37.679
such an issue with the gen z stare, because that

202
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.919
look on all of the rest of our faces is trouble.

203
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.120
Whereas the gen z stare may not necessarily be some

204
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:49.000
passive aggressive thing. It's just the thing that's a trend

205
00:12:49.159 --> 00:12:53.679
that they're doing without thinking about the repercussions of it.

206
00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:57.159
Is it a trend or is it just that they

207
00:12:57.200 --> 00:12:59.519
really aren't that good at talking?

208
00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:03.480
Okay, that's a great question. I don't know if the

209
00:13:03.480 --> 00:13:06.279
gen z stare is intentional or if they really are

210
00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:07.080
dead inside.

211
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:11.080
Yeah, they just don't know what word to say.

212
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:13.320
You're right, they may just be vacant.

213
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:17.279
Yeah, I've seen that look from gen Z and that's

214
00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:19.440
just what I assumed is they were just didn't know.

215
00:13:20.519 --> 00:13:24.639
Uh I, God help us.

216
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:28.759
That's yeah, gen Z, the youthful masters of the TikTok

217
00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:32.679
trend are being hoist by their own petard. But they're

218
00:13:32.679 --> 00:13:35.799
probably just staring at their phones with blank and expressionless faces.

219
00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:39.639
The gen Z stare has become the rare social media

220
00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.639
sensation that turns the mirror back on gen Zers instead

221
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:46.679
of vice versa. You may recognize the gen Z stare

222
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:49.600
if you've had an unsettling experience with a barista while

223
00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:51.879
trying to order a coffee, or if you were discussing

224
00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:53.759
an assignment with a colleague and weren't sure if they

225
00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:57.600
were understanding you, because without saying anything, they just stared

226
00:13:57.639 --> 00:14:01.120
back at you. This particular TikTok trend is quickly becoming

227
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:05.159
a flashpoint in debates about workplace culture, generational divides, in

228
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:07.919
the future of soft skills. While it may seem like

229
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:10.360
a fleeting meme, the gen Z stair is emblematic of

230
00:14:10.360 --> 00:14:14.320
deeper economic and social shifts as the youngest working generation

231
00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:18.320
reshapes the labor market. One Reddit user described visiting a

232
00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:21.200
chocolate shop to pick up a birthday gift, saying the

233
00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:23.759
young person working at the counter just stared blankly at

234
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:26.200
me as I smiled and said hi, she said nothing

235
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:29.039
even when I said thank you. After the interaction, it

236
00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:31.759
makes me self conscious and I start wondering if I

237
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.679
did something wrong. And the gen Z stairs typically described

238
00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:39.879
as a vacant, unresponsive gaze, often replacing traditional greetings or

239
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:48.000
small talk in service roles. Now gen Z says the

240
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.799
stair is a reaction to awkward or nonsensical customer interactions,

241
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:58.399
or simply a preference for authenticity over forced pleasantries. So

242
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:01.480
if you get a gen Z's and think it's personal,

243
00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:07.240
it probably is. I also expect an increase in gen

244
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:09.120
Z getting punched if they keep doing this.

245
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:14.919
My favorite of.

246
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:22.919
All my interactions with gen Z, I was working behind

247
00:15:22.919 --> 00:15:31.600
the bar one night and listening to this girl go

248
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:36.519
on and on about how we the older generations did

249
00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:40.919
not understand the enlightenment that they had, and you know

250
00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:47.519
that their perspective was, you know, just so different because

251
00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:49.159
they had so much more information and they were so

252
00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:51.799
much smarter and everything else. And she proceeded just to

253
00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:54.600
get fact after fact after fact wrong. And she just

254
00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:58.840
she goes, you know, y'all don't understand we think outside

255
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:02.120
the box. And I said, yes, you do, but you're

256
00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:03.240
standing in a circle.

257
00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:06.200
Sho didn't get it.

258
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:08.759
But is that when you got your first gen Z stare?

259
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:13.639
Uh, that's when I got my first gen Z You.

260
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:19.559
Congratulations. Kind of knock that off your bucket list.

261
00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:20.240
Uh huh.

262
00:16:20.279 --> 00:16:23.240
The thing that gen Z needs to be aware of

263
00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:27.679
here is that you can throw out a gen Z stare,

264
00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:31.200
but if you do, you may end up receiving a

265
00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:35.080
gen X beatdown, because if you look at the wrong

266
00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:37.679
gen xer in that way, you will end up on

267
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:38.559
the news.

268
00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:40.960
I mean, you might even get slapped by a millennial.

269
00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.679
I mean they'll they'll have to go to therapy for it,

270
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:45.399
but they'll they might slap you too.

271
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:47.720
They will, they will pick up a piece of avocado

272
00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:50.080
toast and slap you with it, and they'll they'll talk

273
00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:52.519
to the therapist about it afterwards. But yeah, you run

274
00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:52.919
the risk.

275
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:57.440
Yeah, gen Z's actually as as I do have some

276
00:16:57.559 --> 00:16:59.840
faith in the new gen Alpha, I think gen Z's

277
00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:02.279
can be that generation that just literally their whole lives.

278
00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:04.640
They're just gonna get slapped from all sides.

279
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:08.880
Probably will. And you're right. If gen Z keeps doing this,

280
00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:11.680
If gen Z keeps putting out this gen Z stare,

281
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:15.000
they're gonna get slapped in the face by millennials with

282
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:17.599
a piece of avocado toast. They're gonna get possibly a

283
00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:20.319
gen X beat down, and the boomers will write them

284
00:17:20.359 --> 00:17:21.720
right out of the will Oh.

285
00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:24.079
I mean, they're gonna get slapped by their kids, their parents,

286
00:17:24.079 --> 00:17:28.000
their grandparents, uh and great grandparents. It's gonna look like

287
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:29.400
the scene out of Airplane.

297
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:20.839
an awkward run in with a former teacher?

298
00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:25.039
Former teacher m.

299
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:35.759
H not off the top of your head, it's okay.

300
00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:37.200
If not, I'm just asking the question.

301
00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:39.519
No.

302
00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:42.640
So, I come from a family of teachers, and I've

303
00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:47.839
seen a fair share of awkward run ins of former

304
00:18:47.880 --> 00:18:52.920
students with former teachers. When we lived in Oklahoma. My

305
00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:56.839
dad started out as a sixth grade teacher before he

306
00:18:56.920 --> 00:19:01.319
went into the corporate world, and occasionally at the Skags

307
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:04.680
Alpha Beta, a former student would see us in the

308
00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:06.720
grocery store because it was a small town and be like,

309
00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:09.480
oh hi, and they'd have like a little brief interaction,

310
00:19:09.799 --> 00:19:11.680
and my dad'd be like, who Reachi, Like, oh I

311
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:13.279
had you in sixth grade and be like, oh hi.

312
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:16.640
Whether or not he actually remembered this student, sometimes he did,

313
00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:19.039
sometimes he didn't, but still I'd see it. My grandmother

314
00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:21.319
was a teacher for many, many years. Occasionally she would

315
00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:25.359
run into a former student. So it happens, but not

316
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:28.799
always like this. This is one TikTok trend I am

317
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:32.720
that I can get behind. Teachers on TikToker sharing the

318
00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:37.319
most horrific places that they've bumped into students outside of school,

319
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:40.920
and students are also sharing the unexpected times that they've

320
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:46.640
run into one of their teachers. So my grade run

321
00:19:46.640 --> 00:19:51.000
in with a former teacher. Technically wasn't my teacher, but

322
00:19:51.759 --> 00:19:55.079
she was a teacher across the hall. So in second grade,

323
00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:59.440
going into second grade at my elementary school in Oklahoma,

324
00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:05.559
two second grade classes. One was Missus Pruitt. That was

325
00:20:05.599 --> 00:20:09.240
the older lady, the white hair, all of that, very strict,

326
00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:12.920
very scary. Then there was across the hall from her,

327
00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:16.279
Missus Reynolds. She was sort of the hippie, free flowing,

328
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:20.680
care free, like more fun class. That's the class I wanted.

329
00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:24.079
I wanted Missus Reynolds second grade class. Instead, I got

330
00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:27.319
sucked into Missus Pruitt's. Turned out. Missus Pruitt not bad,

331
00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:30.880
very nice lady, excellent teacher, but definitely was not the

332
00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:35.599
hippie dippy type across the hall of Missus Reynolds. Fast

333
00:20:35.640 --> 00:20:40.119
forward about twenty five years. I'm at my dad's house

334
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:43.960
visiting in Oklahoma and I see this lady on the

335
00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:51.200
patio smoking some weed and drinking a beer. I'm like, God,

336
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:56.799
she looks familiar, Missus Reynolds. And that's that's when I

337
00:20:56.880 --> 00:20:59.279
was like, I knew you were the fun second grade teacher.

338
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:02.359
So that was a fun I was.

339
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:04.039
It was kind of awkward, but it was a fun

340
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:06.359
run in. I was like, hey, I really wanted you

341
00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:10.920
in the second grade, but I got missus brute. That's mine.

342
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:13.200
Now on TikTok actual go ahead, tray.

343
00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:18.359
Well, now, I have seen some awkward run ins at

344
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.119
bars of two different types.

345
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:26.240
One was a bar that I will not name, but.

346
00:21:29.039 --> 00:21:31.880
Some girls had some really good fake id's, clearly because

347
00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:33.680
they were still in high school. But they had gotten

348
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.319
into a bar and they ran into one of their teachers. Ah,

349
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:40.799
that was awkward.

350
00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:44.160
That's one of the examples that I've actually got here.

351
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:47.359
Someone said, when I was a teacher, I saw a curtain.

352
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:50.039
I saw a curtain. Damn it, I can't say that word.

353
00:21:50.359 --> 00:21:53.079
When I was a teacher, I saw a current student

354
00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:56.880
who was sixteen attempting to use his fake ID at

355
00:21:56.960 --> 00:21:58.720
the bar where I was moonlighting.

356
00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:05.759
I think the only thing that saved the girls was

357
00:22:05.759 --> 00:22:10.559
the fact the teacher was hammered, and so it was

358
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:14.240
kind of like, y'all go and we're never going to

359
00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:15.319
talk about this again.

360
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:19.000
Yeah, And honestly, as coming from a family full of teachers,

361
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:21.440
a drunk teacher is kind of a normal.

362
00:22:22.119 --> 00:22:23.000
Oh oh yeah.

363
00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:25.839
That was the other funny thing is when I was

364
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:29.039
then dating someone that had kids. We were out one

365
00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:34.119
night and ran into one of their teachers, absolutely plowed

366
00:22:35.400 --> 00:22:38.240
and almost dancing on the bar. It was quite entertaining

367
00:22:39.200 --> 00:22:46.759
and so so yeah, I have witnessed those kind of interactions.

368
00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:48.440
That was a pretty good well. I have a few

369
00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:52.759
others here of people sharing their experiences on TikTok sharing

370
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:54.920
their times where they had to awkward run in with

371
00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:59.079
a former student or a former teacher. One here, a

372
00:22:59.160 --> 00:23:02.440
student said at a funeral, turns out we were related.

373
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:04.599
So a student said they ran into a teacher at

374
00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:07.319
a funeral. They were related, and he was my most

375
00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:11.079
hated teacher I've ever had. One student said that me

376
00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:13.640
and my college professor were locked up in jail over

377
00:23:13.680 --> 00:23:18.000
the weekend together. It's fun. Now we get in some

378
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:21.160
really fun ones. I was pooping at Walmart and a

379
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:23.920
third grade student popped her head under the stall and said,

380
00:23:23.960 --> 00:23:26.200
I saw your shoes and thought that was you missus ware.

381
00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:37.799
Oh that is awful so many levels. Yeah. I got

382
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:40.279
into an uber blackout drunk and my driver was a

383
00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:45.880
student's parent. A student was the only cashier when I,

384
00:23:46.119 --> 00:23:52.839
as the former teacher, was buying a pregnancy test. Whoops,

385
00:23:54.799 --> 00:23:57.519
this is just a classic one as my colonoscopy was

386
00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:00.039
just about to begin. Hey, mister k you were my

387
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:03.680
favorite teacher. I'll be assisting you today. The teacher responded, thanks,

388
00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:09.880
enjoy the view. This one's pretty good. I don't know

389
00:24:09.880 --> 00:24:12.039
if this is a student or a teacher, really doesn't matter,

390
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:14.240
but they said they had the awkward run in at therapy.

391
00:24:14.559 --> 00:24:16.480
He was on his way out, I was on my

392
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:20.920
way in. It's better than dancing on the bar during

393
00:24:20.920 --> 00:24:26.000
happy hour. Yeah, I was getting a bikini wax, and

394
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:28.960
halfway through my technician told me that because of me,

395
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:31.200
she was doing great in college math.

396
00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:36.119
All right, that'd be awkward.

397
00:24:36.319 --> 00:24:39.200
That would be like, oh oh, this is wow.

398
00:24:39.359 --> 00:24:39.799
Okay.

399
00:24:40.079 --> 00:24:43.920
And my personal favorite of teachers and students sharing their awkward,

400
00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:49.039
horrific run ins, I was teaching preschool and also working

401
00:24:49.119 --> 00:24:52.880
at a topless bar. Saw a father at last call,

402
00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:56.079
and saw him again at the school's early drop off

403
00:24:56.119 --> 00:25:01.160
at six am. Honestly to both of them for being

404
00:25:01.240 --> 00:25:03.880
up and at them. Just a handful of hours later.

405
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:09.519
Dan, when you see other former teachers of yours, like

406
00:25:09.559 --> 00:25:11.960
do you you go, hey, it's Dan, And then when

407
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:13.319
they kind of have a blank look, then do you

408
00:25:13.359 --> 00:25:15.039
like slap on the helmet and then grab the big

409
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:17.319
pencil and they're like, oh, Denny, I remember you.

410
00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:22.400
It's yes. I keep those items in my backpack for

411
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:26.440
just such an occurrence so I can give them big

412
00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:28.319
old hugs and tell them about great I'm doing.

413
00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:32.640
Now, do you write them a note? And you're big red,

414
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:34.400
you know, big big chief tablet.

415
00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:44.400
Oh God, you're.

428
00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:39.319
July twenty third, twenty twenty five A headline which will

429
00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:46.160
live in infamy. A civilian boat collided with the USS Midway,

430
00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:47.319
an aircraft carrier.

431
00:26:53.160 --> 00:27:00.559
Oh wow, I I.

432
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:06.880
Saw the story, and I was like, and I say

433
00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:09.240
this as a recovering alcoholic and and and someone who

434
00:27:09.359 --> 00:27:09.920
drank a lot.

435
00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:12.759
And uh.

436
00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:18.400
But if you've if you've never seen an aircraft carrier,

437
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:21.200
then maybe you don't understand how big they are.

438
00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:24.599
They are massive.

439
00:27:24.880 --> 00:27:27.759
Yeah, like over to football fields.

440
00:27:28.039 --> 00:27:30.279
You know what I can. I can alter the headline

441
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:33.359
a little bit to maybe make it easier for someone

442
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:38.799
to understand the perspective on a boat running into an

443
00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:45.000
aircraft carrier. Here we go, a civilian boat collided with

444
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:57.119
a museum in San Diego. That's that's what the USS

445
00:27:57.200 --> 00:28:00.480
Midway is now. It's a floating museum in San Diego,

446
00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:01.640
and you ran into it.

447
00:28:01.839 --> 00:28:06.839
Yeah, it's like three and a half football fields long.

448
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:11.279
On July eighteenth, a sixty foot sport fishing boat, which

449
00:28:11.359 --> 00:28:14.279
is not tiny, by the way, a sixty foot sport

450
00:28:14.319 --> 00:28:17.839
fishing boat sailed into the side of the decommissioned USS

451
00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:22.759
Midway aircraft carrier. Oh, by the way, the operator of

452
00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:25.960
the boat under the influence of alcohol, allegedly.

453
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:27.480
You know, that's one of the few times I have

454
00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:31.319
to say I hope so because if he were stone cold, sob,

455
00:28:33.039 --> 00:28:38.000
how did you get a boating No more, Captain for you,

456
00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:41.559
Captain D's maybe.

457
00:28:42.640 --> 00:28:43.119
Oh.

458
00:28:43.559 --> 00:28:46.680
Footage of the incident was captured both by San Diego

459
00:28:46.720 --> 00:28:50.119
webcam as well as visitors on board the USS Midway

460
00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:53.559
at the time. No injuries and no major damage to

461
00:28:53.680 --> 00:28:56.680
either vessel has been reported, certainly not to the Floating

462
00:28:56.720 --> 00:29:02.480
Aircraft Carrier Museum. Oh my god. And I don't know

463
00:29:02.519 --> 00:29:05.279
how familiar people are with some of these really large

464
00:29:05.319 --> 00:29:08.880
sport fishing boats. But sixty feet that's big still. I

465
00:29:08.920 --> 00:29:10.880
mean not compared to an aircraft carrier, but still it's

466
00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:12.799
a big boat in its own right. And these fishing

467
00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:17.000
boats are multi level, they can be two three, you know, decks,

468
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:19.880
So these are not small boats. And the video of

469
00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:25.200
this incident is truly inspiring because the boat just goes

470
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:30.839
right into it it. I'm not sure if there was

471
00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:35.240
ever any attempt at whoever was piloting the sport fishing

472
00:29:35.240 --> 00:29:38.519
boat to avoid the aircraft carrier. I kind of wonder

473
00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:41.079
if they were just passed out at the helm or

474
00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:43.480
down below and didn't even know where they were.

475
00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:48.000
For as far as private boat boats go, sixty foot

476
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:53.519
is a big boat, yes, But let's also keep in

477
00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:56.920
mind again the aircraft carrier. It's docked permanently. It's a

478
00:29:57.000 --> 00:29:59.799
music it's a floating museum. It's not moving. It's not

479
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:02.839
and you know tag or anything else.

480
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:05.079
It's just there.

481
00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:10.200
It's yeah, it's there. Just in case you have not

482
00:30:10.279 --> 00:30:11.119
seen it, I'm gonna show this.

483
00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:13.039
I have I did not see the video sides.

484
00:30:13.119 --> 00:30:16.279
Oh, you're gonna enjoy this. So here you have a one, two, three,

485
00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:23.839
maybe there's definitely three, you know from like the like

486
00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:26.279
when you walk onto a boat that's level one, then

487
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:30.160
there's an area above that. Then there's another area above

488
00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:32.960
that on the fly bridge, right, so there's it's just

489
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:37.920
three decks above water level on on the sport boat

490
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:40.519
that's going to run into the USS Midway.

491
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:42.920
Yeah, that's and that's a that's a million dollar boat.

492
00:30:43.680 --> 00:30:48.000
Yeah, exactly, mm hmm.

493
00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:56.279
Oh, no way.

494
00:31:01.400 --> 00:31:05.400
And then it just keeps on going. So like the

495
00:31:05.480 --> 00:31:08.440
bow of the boat, the pointy end of the boat

496
00:31:08.559 --> 00:31:11.839
just goes right into the side of the USS Midway

497
00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:14.839
aircraft carrier and it doesn't stop. It keeps going. So

498
00:31:14.880 --> 00:31:18.359
now the boat's turning and now it's scraping the side

499
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:21.920
of the aircraft carrier with the side of the boat. Oh,

500
00:31:22.000 --> 00:31:34.640
let's watch it again. Oh, I'm glad that's not my boat.

501
00:31:38.119 --> 00:31:40.839
Oh.

502
00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:45.000
Local police later confirmed to the San Diego Union Tribune

503
00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:47.400
that one person had been arrested on suspicion of boating

504
00:31:47.400 --> 00:31:48.519
while under the influence.

505
00:31:49.599 --> 00:31:52.960
Oh oh.

506
00:31:53.000 --> 00:31:55.720
By the way, this this civilian craft attempted to leave

507
00:31:55.759 --> 00:31:58.920
the scene before soon being intercepted by a police boat.

508
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:04.759
Guessing them running into the aircraft carrier woke them up

509
00:32:04.839 --> 00:32:12.920
from their alcoholic slumber, and that's when they were like, oh, no.

510
00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:20.680
I just want to be on the phone. What they

511
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:27.839
call their insurance company? You ran into what what?

512
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:34.720
We're going to take your boat away? Now, we're going

513
00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:38.680
to cancel. We're going to be canceling your policy because

514
00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:43.640
even those cavemen aren't going to ensure you can.

515
00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:46.599
We get a statement from the other person involved.

516
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:59.279
No, so far, the only statement we've received is really yeah.

517
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:01.079
In the Treehouse.

At Treehouse on Air give us a follow today. Today

525
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:38.599
is Wednesday, July twenty third, twenty twenty five. Let's celebrate

526
00:33:38.680 --> 00:33:49.720
today inside the Treehouse with birthdays. Actor Daniel Radcliffe, best

527
00:33:49.799 --> 00:33:53.720
known as Harry Potter, is thirty six years old today.

528
00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:57.359
Harry Potter is thirty six years old today. If that

529
00:33:57.400 --> 00:33:59.359
doesn't make you feel old, then nothing will.

530
00:34:04.000 --> 00:34:11.280
God, that's that really does? That hits hard.

531
00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:16.159
I mean it's like being slapped in the face by

532
00:34:16.159 --> 00:34:18.639
a piece of ava, by a piece of avocado toes

533
00:34:18.679 --> 00:34:19.320
by a millennial.

534
00:34:20.400 --> 00:34:24.280
I mean, well, I I'm trying to think when was

535
00:34:24.639 --> 00:34:28.840
the last Harry Potter movie released, because now they're coming

536
00:34:28.920 --> 00:34:30.440
up on being twenty years old.

537
00:34:32.000 --> 00:34:37.440
Yeah, you're right. I hadn't thought about that. I'm curious

538
00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:38.960
about that myself.

539
00:34:40.840 --> 00:34:46.639
So there are one two, There.

540
00:34:44.840 --> 00:34:48.920
Are seven movies. I guess technically eight because yet The

541
00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:52.000
Deathly Hollows Part one and Part two are considered I

542
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:56.280
guess the seventh film. But yeah, you've got Harry Potter

543
00:34:56.320 --> 00:34:58.920
and The Sorcerer's Stone came out in two thousand and one.

544
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.679
Member of Secrets two thousand and two, Prisoner of oz

545
00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:05.719
Caban and four Goblet of Fire, oh five Order of

546
00:35:05.719 --> 00:35:09.480
the Phoenix O seven, Half Blood Prints, nine, Deathly Hollows

547
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:12.559
Part one in twenty ten, and Deathly Hollows Part two

548
00:35:12.599 --> 00:35:17.960
and twenty eleven. Wow, so fourteen years since the most

549
00:35:18.000 --> 00:35:18.760
recent one.

550
00:35:18.760 --> 00:35:21.239
But the first one is over twenty years old now,

551
00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:21.960
I mean, that's.

552
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:26.079
Twenty four years old. It's just Oh, that's nauseating.

553
00:35:27.199 --> 00:35:35.639
Oh that was Actually, those were the first movies when

554
00:35:35.679 --> 00:35:41.480
I got sober, because I had never never invested the

555
00:35:41.519 --> 00:35:43.360
time in my drinking days to watch them because I

556
00:35:43.440 --> 00:35:45.039
knew there's a chance I probably wouldn't remember them, and

557
00:35:45.039 --> 00:35:49.039
that's just a big time investment. But the first set

558
00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:50.880
of movies I watched when I got sober, and I

559
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:53.920
was like, yeah, and obviously they're great movies.

560
00:35:55.159 --> 00:35:57.000
I still to this day don't think I've seen every

561
00:35:57.000 --> 00:35:59.639
single one of them.

562
00:36:00.039 --> 00:36:03.599
They're all I mean, they're just if you like that genre,

563
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:05.239
if you like you know, Lord of the Rings and

564
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:07.039
the end of that fantasy genre.

565
00:36:07.239 --> 00:36:08.039
I mean, fantastic.

566
00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:11.079
There's there's a stand up who has a great bit

567
00:36:11.159 --> 00:36:14.280
on this that that Harry Potter is just poor Man

568
00:36:14.360 --> 00:36:17.880
Star Wars. Oh yeah, it's the same movie. It's the

569
00:36:17.920 --> 00:36:21.840
same plot. It's just I mean, it's it's Wizards versus

570
00:36:21.960 --> 00:36:26.159
Space Wizards. It's a wand instead of a lightsaber. Harry

571
00:36:26.159 --> 00:36:30.360
Potter living with his aunt and uncle or whatever it

572
00:36:30.480 --> 00:36:33.800
was versus his parents, doesn't know where they are. There's

573
00:36:33.840 --> 00:36:42.920
a very dark force out to get him.

574
00:36:39.559 --> 00:36:40.960
And they're not really wrong.

575
00:36:41.519 --> 00:36:48.079
It's Star Wars with pointy hats and crooked sticks. So anyway,

576
00:36:48.199 --> 00:36:52.159
happy birthday, Daniel Radcliffe, you bastard, he's thirty six today.

577
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:57.280
Then you've also got from Destiny's Child. Michelle Williams is

578
00:36:57.360 --> 00:37:02.079
forty six. Monica Lewinsky is that'll make you you feel old,

579
00:37:02.119 --> 00:37:04.559
But you know who that makes you know, how that

580
00:37:04.599 --> 00:37:06.239
makes Bill Clinton didn't feel.

581
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:10.480
You know, talking about people again that Coldplay had not

582
00:37:11.199 --> 00:37:15.880
really thought or seen Monica Lewinsky's name or anything in years.

583
00:37:16.320 --> 00:37:19.119
And then you know, as soon as the Coldplay thing

584
00:37:19.199 --> 00:37:21.360
at the concert started, then the memes came out.

585
00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:23.000
And that was especially with Ai.

586
00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:25.440
Now that was one of the first ones, was you know,

587
00:37:25.559 --> 00:37:27.760
it was Bill and Monica at the Coldplay concert.

588
00:37:30.480 --> 00:37:33.480
It really is interesting though, because, yeah, Monica Lewinsky fifty

589
00:37:33.519 --> 00:37:35.840
two years old today, and if that makes you feel old,

590
00:37:35.880 --> 00:37:38.079
just imagine how old that makes Bill Clinton feel.

591
00:37:43.400 --> 00:37:45.000
I'm sure Hillary makes him feel older.

592
00:37:49.159 --> 00:37:55.719
I think that's probably more the daily punching. Do you

593
00:37:55.719 --> 00:37:56.920
think Macron has it bad?

594
00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:03.280

604
00:38:54.119 --> 00:38:57.480
little bit here inside the Treehouse for it today. You've

605
00:38:57.519 --> 00:39:01.679
heard this saying don't poke the bear, right, Yes, Well

606
00:39:01.719 --> 00:39:05.400
there's another one, and that is don't poke the cow

607
00:39:06.719 --> 00:39:09.920
because if you do, it might run you over along

608
00:39:09.960 --> 00:39:12.800
with all of its friends, which is something that a

609
00:39:12.880 --> 00:39:16.639
hiker in China recently found out when going up to

610
00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:19.599
a cow in a field, poked it with its stick,

611
00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:23.280
and then the cow proceeded to run it over along

612
00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:25.320
with all of its friends, a little thing in Texas

613
00:39:25.400 --> 00:39:29.119
we call a stampede. So don't poke the bear and

614
00:39:29.239 --> 00:39:34.559
definitely do not poke the cow. Are they dim, dull

615
00:39:35.039 --> 00:39:38.760
mentally creatures. Yes, they're not the most intelligent creatures, but

616
00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:43.039
they will run your ass over, and coming from a

617
00:39:43.079 --> 00:39:46.880
family that had not one, but two legitimate cattle ranchers

618
00:39:47.000 --> 00:39:49.800
in it, they will sit on you and kill you.

619
00:39:51.599 --> 00:39:54.559
And they can run you over and kill you. So

620
00:39:54.880 --> 00:39:59.079
don't poke cows. Yeah, one person learned that the hard way.

621
00:39:59.159 --> 00:40:01.360
They're hurt animals, so if one does something, chances are

622
00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:04.039
the herd will do it, and including trampling you.

623
00:40:06.079 --> 00:40:08.239
One cow charged a man who poked it with a

624
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:11.480
stick before the rest joined in, leaving him with bruises

625
00:40:11.480 --> 00:40:15.559
and minor rib fractures. He does not realize how lucky

626
00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:19.639
he is only bruises and minor rib fractures. He is

627
00:40:19.719 --> 00:40:24.440
lucky to be alive. And there's really no other way

628
00:40:24.480 --> 00:40:27.800
around it. What's that?

629
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:28.639
This was in China?

630
00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:29.840
This was in China.

631
00:40:30.079 --> 00:40:32.880
Oh, I can't even blame it on white people.

632
00:40:33.079 --> 00:40:38.199
No, you can't. Yeah, and I tried. I watched the

633
00:40:38.280 --> 00:40:40.320
video four or five times. It was like a Zubruiter

634
00:40:40.440 --> 00:40:46.079
film for a for a stampede, not a not a

635
00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:47.679
not a not an anglow to be seen.

636
00:40:47.960 --> 00:40:52.880
Yeah, it's just it really seems so common sense to say,

637
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:55.360
but it is a general rule of thumb. If the

638
00:40:55.400 --> 00:40:58.679
animal has horns, don't mess with it.

639
00:40:58.800 --> 00:41:01.960
Also a good saying. Maybe that's part of what's lost

640
00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:04.000
on some people is that we're letting some of these

641
00:41:04.039 --> 00:41:06.519
sayings go by the wayside. Don't poke the bear, what

642
00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:10.039
do people do they go poke a bear? Don't grab

643
00:41:10.039 --> 00:41:13.320
a bull by the horns. These are all sayings steeped

644
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:17.679
in history and practical knowledge. These are not fanciful things

645
00:41:17.679 --> 00:41:20.039
that people just made up to be funny or silly. No,

646
00:41:20.159 --> 00:41:22.400
there's a reason why you don't do these actual things.

647
00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:25.239
Because mess with the bull the horns, yes, you know,

648
00:41:26.159 --> 00:41:29.320
if it has an appendage that could kill you, just

649
00:41:29.400 --> 00:41:30.039
leave it alone.

650
00:41:31.719 --> 00:41:37.480
And you can't always use size as an indicator as

651
00:41:37.480 --> 00:41:39.679
to whether or not you should mess with a wild animal,

652
00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:46.440
because chimpanzees physically might be smaller than a full grown human.

653
00:41:47.039 --> 00:41:49.559
But ask the lady whose face got ripped off by

654
00:41:49.599 --> 00:41:53.760
a chimpanzee if they seem strong for their size.

655
00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:57.199
Yes, they can tear your limbs off one by one.

656
00:41:58.280 --> 00:42:02.199
And beat you with them.

657
00:42:03.960 --> 00:42:07.599
This is just another one of those things. It seems

658
00:42:07.639 --> 00:42:08.400
like common sense.

659
00:42:09.559 --> 00:42:12.119
I don't think there are a lot of times I

660
00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:15.480
think these things are were happening. When we were kids,

661
00:42:16.039 --> 00:42:18.639
there was just not everyone had phones and everything else,

662
00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:22.000
so you didn't hear about them. I don't think this

663
00:42:22.039 --> 00:42:26.039
stuff happened like it does now. But I think people

664
00:42:26.079 --> 00:42:28.599
see stuff on social media they're like, oh, I'll go

665
00:42:28.639 --> 00:42:29.320
pet the buffalo.

666
00:42:33.599 --> 00:42:36.079
That's how you become a how it started versus how

667
00:42:36.079 --> 00:42:42.920
it's going me. I mean, when the realization hits that

668
00:42:43.000 --> 00:42:46.079
your arm just got ripped off by an angry chimpanzee

669
00:42:46.119 --> 00:42:48.880
and he's now bludgeoning you with it, that's a that's

670
00:42:48.920 --> 00:42:55.559
a very difficult realization to make, but it's gonna happen.

671
00:42:56.400 --> 00:42:58.840
Don't mess with wild animals.

672
00:42:59.559 --> 00:43:02.559
Or the bison you decided you needed to pet, when

673
00:43:02.639 --> 00:43:04.199
you know, all of a sudden tosses you and you're

674
00:43:04.199 --> 00:43:06.159
twenty feet in the air and you're contemplating all your

675
00:43:06.199 --> 00:43:06.840
life decisions.

676
00:43:07.199 --> 00:43:10.840
Know that that was a poor one. That fence was

677
00:43:10.840 --> 00:43:11.679
there for a reason.

678
00:43:11.880 --> 00:43:15.440
Yeah, as you reached the peak of your assent, I

679
00:43:15.480 --> 00:43:21.280
have chosen poorly. And as you go on your way

680
00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:27.840
down you realize this is gonna hurt sure out of you.

681
00:43:27.920 --> 00:43:28.360
Yeah.

682
00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:35.280
Yeah, the final lesson you have all that time to

683
00:43:35.320 --> 00:43:37.400
think right before you meet your maker.

684
00:43:39.599 --> 00:43:41.559
Which is going to be a fun conversation. By the way,

685
00:43:41.599 --> 00:43:43.840
when you get to the Pearly Gates and Sat Peter,

686
00:43:43.880 --> 00:43:45.800
I asked you, so would you do?

687
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:51.719
Oh no, go over there, that's the Darwin Lane.

688
00:43:56.159 --> 00:43:59.000

692
00:44:07.239 --> 00:44:09.079
it's at Trey trenome one.

693
00:44:10.360 --> 00:44:11.199
I really hope if.

694
00:44:11.119 --> 00:44:14.239
There are lanes and lines in Heaven that there is

695
00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:16.199
a Darwood one that would be nice, and then we

696
00:44:16.239 --> 00:44:19.000
can all point and laugh at imness we go by.

697
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:24.119
We will see you tomorrow right here inside the Treehouse.
