1
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:23.640
It is time you leave your worries outside and laugh

2
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:27.239
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley, along with

3
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:33.399
Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. Today is Thursday, April twenty fourth,

4
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:40.320
two thousand and five. Trey, If you don't mind, I'd

5
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:45.399
like to quote you from earlier this week, just when

6
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:47.439
you thought it was gonna be a boring week, the

7
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:48.479
pope dies.

8
00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:50.119
You can get a conclave.

9
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:54.439
I'm gonna skirt it up. Yeah, just when you think

10
00:00:54.439 --> 00:00:59.039
it's gonna be a boring week, we get a conclave. Well,

11
00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:05.000
I forgot that. There's you know, there's the eventual conclave,

12
00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:10.400
which is it's all the cardinals of the Catholic Church

13
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:13.560
all come together into one room. They get locked inside

14
00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:15.680
of it and they have to decide on who the

15
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:19.359
new Pope is going to be. But before and then

16
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:22.280
we all start watching Chimney smoke like crazy. But before

17
00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:26.799
all that happens, I forgot about all the other traditions

18
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:37.519
that take place. Where where did it go here? It is?

19
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:45.400
Yeah, there's a lot of ancient traditions that really seemed

20
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.359
to be redundant at this point because of modern technology,

21
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:50.200
but they still do them.

22
00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:55.319
For example, with the death of Pope Francis. We're learning

23
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:58.040
about the selection of a new pope, but there are

24
00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:01.840
also some very interesting things they do with the dead pope.

25
00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:06.879
Historic rites and rituals are performed after the death of

26
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.520
a pope, including three blows to the head with a

27
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:15.680
silver hammer. Well they say it's supposed to be three

28
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:19.240
gentle taps on the forehead, but the silver hammer part

29
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:23.879
is accurate. And I know what you're thinking. Are they

30
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:28.000
checking to see if anyone's home? Is this some really

31
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:35.360
weird Catholic version of a werewolf test? It's actually the former.

32
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:45.039
They're making sure he's dead. Look, I like traditions, you know,

33
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:52.919
I like routine, but I think that's one that you know, Like,

34
00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:55.719
like you said, Trey, technology exists that you can find

35
00:02:55.719 --> 00:03:01.439
out if there's anyone still at home inside the You

36
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:05.479
don't need to use the silver hammer method, although it

37
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:06.639
is very entertaining.

38
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:11.280
Well it also it also the other interesting thing about

39
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:14.759
it is when they're doing that, they use his first

40
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:20.159
name now, so he's been going by Pope Francis for

41
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:28.120
it since eleven years, So now they go pack or hey,

42
00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:29.680
you in there.

43
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:34.680
Frank, Frank, you in there? Frank?

44
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:37.319
What if you're a What if you're a really heavy

45
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:39.919
sleeper and the three taps.

46
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.560
Don't work, well, that's when you, you know, the strength

47
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:45.960
test at the arcade or or at the state fair

48
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:52.319
with the really big hammer. Frank in there, Hey, look,

49
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:57.280
high score, I get a free turkey leg Frank, wake

50
00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:03.120
up the lady in here.

51
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:06.719
If he's like, how long have you been? How long

52
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:07.319
have I been out?

53
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:20.519
What a miss? No, you're right, yeah, they actually uh,

54
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:24.480
they tap him on the head. Certain rights and rituals

55
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:28.240
follow the death of a pope, including tapping his forehead

56
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:31.800
with a silver hammer. It is the carme lingo's duty

57
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:39.959
to perform the right, administering three gentle taps on the

58
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:43.160
pope's forehead and calling him by his first name. It's

59
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:47.199
the traditional way of making sure a pope has died.

60
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:55.399
Thank you, Thank you Catholicism for keeping certain traditions alive.

61
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:58.040
Did they air that, by the way, have they done

62
00:04:58.079 --> 00:04:59.959
that test? Or is that the last thing they do

63
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:04.920
before they take it out of lying in the state. Oh?

64
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:09.399
No, this is done in his like typically the pontiff

65
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:11.759
eyes in his quarters and so it's it's all done

66
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:13.639
while he's in.

67
00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:17.079
His bed and behind closed doors like hind closed doors.

68
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.639
I want to watch that, the breaking of the seal.

69
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:24.079
The I want to see the tapping of the pope

70
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:27.439
carry that live on cable news.

71
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:31.399
They got to crush his ring, like the ring that

72
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:32.839
he the papal ring that hes.

73
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:35.879
They have to break it cruse, you just have to

74
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:39.199
break it. Then melted down to a new one. But

75
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:44.680
this pope. Typically those are gold rings. This one shows

76
00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.319
sterling silver, which a may prove harder to break.

77
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:52.680
But uh, which also served as another test that he

78
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:54.199
was in fact not a werewolf.

79
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.800
Yes, but all these all these things happened for a reason.

80
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:02.160
The tapping of the head that had to happen for

81
00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:04.399
a reason, Like they thought someone was dead.

82
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:12.120
There was one time some dude woke up. They're like, okay, yeah, yeah,

83
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:14.240
did you got to start tapping these guys?

84
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:17.279
You know, they're like they're putting the holy water on

85
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:18.879
them and it gets splashed in the and it's like, hey,

86
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:21.680
what's going on? We thought you were dead?

87
00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:22.759
Oh?

88
00:06:22.839 --> 00:06:26.920
Isn't that the old uh the old grave uh, like

89
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:32.079
the old grave worker type thing and where a body

90
00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:35.160
gets buried and then they tie a string or something

91
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:37.800
somewhere in the hole and then there's a bell that

92
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:40.240
sits on top of the grave for just in case

93
00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:43.720
they wake up after being buried and be like little

94
00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:45.639
hell please. Yeah.

95
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:47.800
And there have been instances. I believe there was like

96
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:51.439
one or two where the bell rung and they had

97
00:06:51.439 --> 00:06:53.639
to get this person out of the ground.

98
00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:01.639
Another ritual sees the destruction of a papal symbol known

99
00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:06.120
as the annulus piscatoris or episcatory ring. I feel like

100
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.519
they should have renamed that. But whatever. The ring represents

101
00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:12.759
the first Pope, Saint Peter, who was a fisherman. Usually

102
00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:15.480
the remnants of the destroyed ring are used to make

103
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:19.040
a new one for a late pope's successor. This is

104
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:20.040
just lord of the ring stuff.

105
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:25.279
Now that's as precious.

106
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:34.399
When the late Pope Francis assumed the papacy, is it

107
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:40.399
papacy papacy, Papa papacy. In twenty thirteen, he opted for

108
00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:43.879
a ring made of gilded silver rather than the traditional

109
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:45.879
ring of yellow gold. Just like you said, there tree,

110
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:49.079
here you go. This right includes certain steps leading up

111
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:51.759
to the rings being destroyed. See this is lord of

112
00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:54.600
the Rings. I feel like this Pope's death is being

113
00:07:54.639 --> 00:08:02.759
directed by Peter Jackson be really interesting though, if the

114
00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:06.279
Pope gets to the gates and Saint Peter's St. Peter's

115
00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:08.360
standing there with a big staff and says you shall

116
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:16.920
not pass, and would he be shocked, like really, not

117
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:20.759
even me. The destruction symbolizes the end of a pope's rule,

118
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:26.399
with the creation of a new ring representing a new pope,

119
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:29.759
assuming the papacy the new ring to rule them all

120
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:30.519
is my assumption.

121
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:38.559
That's I mean, it's, you know, the the the person

122
00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:40.720
you want to be pope is the person who doesn't

123
00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:44.120
want to be pope. And but the problem is, I

124
00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:46.679
mean it's it's as much as they want to think

125
00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.440
it's a holy process, I mean, it's a bunch of

126
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:55.000
you know, power hungry cardinals that all, you know, jockeying

127
00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:55.960
for position.

128
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:00.559
To roomful the dude swearing up down left rights. I

129
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:02.919
don't want to beat a pulp not at all, or no, no, no,

130
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.559
what to all right? One of you's got at least

131
00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:08.480
say yes, well, and that you've got to say all right,

132
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:09.039
I'll do it.

133
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:11.720
That That is the fascinating thing. The thing about Pope

134
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:18.159
Francis is he came, like to the story, he was

135
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:23.480
in the process of resigning when Benedict and he wanted

136
00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:26.639
to be transferred back to it from Argentina. I believe

137
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:32.480
he wanted to be you know, basically demoted and not

138
00:09:32.519 --> 00:09:34.720
be a cardinal anymore, or or basically go back to

139
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:38.720
Argentina when Benedict was resigning and Benedict was like, you know,

140
00:09:38.799 --> 00:09:41.679
you need to be pope and he didn't want it.

141
00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:44.720
See that tells me that the three taps to the

142
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:48.399
forehead are not gentle taps. He knows he's going to

143
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:50.440
get smacked in the head with a silver hammer three

144
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:52.279
times and he doesn't want to have to endure that.

145
00:09:57.080 --> 00:10:02.600
I think, you know, he'll be dead. That's the It's

146
00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:04.960
just one of those like Well was saying, like some

147
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:08.240
people that that's why they vote. That's why they vote,

148
00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:10.639
because you don't have a choice. Then, so if if

149
00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:13.759
it's a unanimous vote, then it's you. Even if you

150
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:14.879
don't want it.

151
00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:17.120
Even even if you're trying to take the Nazi way

152
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:21.080
out and run to South America, the Catholic Church will

153
00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:24.080
find you. And you know what, maybe maybe the three

154
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:27.320
smacks to the head with the silver hammer. Look, it

155
00:10:27.399 --> 00:10:31.399
clearly works. Maybe it's not only a tool to see

156
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:34.559
Maybe it's not only a test to see if you

157
00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:37.159
are in fact dead, but if you wake up after

158
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:40.600
the first or second, then then you get two more,

159
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:42.720
just to make sure the job is finished. Because we've

160
00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:45.440
already started up the smoke and the fire and we're

161
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:49.279
already printing out little pieces of paper for ballots.

162
00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:53.159
I mean, maybe we're overthinking it. Maybe they just like

163
00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:53.759

170
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:28.879
We got a recent reminder, Daniel that storm season is

171
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:31.600
no longer one season out of four. It is year

172
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:35.039
round in North Texas and a severe storm can pop

173
00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:38.879
up anytime, and that means at any moment you may

174
00:11:38.919 --> 00:11:40.159
have some roof damage.

175
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.960
Yeah, Dan, we stopped being uh, you know, springtime storms

176
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:48.840
years ago and so now and I try to educate

177
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:51.600
everybody that you shouldn't protect your roof from the storms.

178
00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:54.440
You should protect your roof because it's the thing that

179
00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:56.600
you need to do. Where we live. We've all made

180
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:59.639
a conscious decision about leott living here in Texas and

181
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:04.720
exactly the DFW metroplex. We have our strong storms, but

182
00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:08.120
we also have extreme temperatures, we have extreme wins, we

183
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:10.080
have all kinds of things that our homes take a

184
00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:12.639
beating on. So you really need to protect your roof

185
00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:14.679
year round because it's the right thing to do for

186
00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:17.440
your home. And so it's really easy. You call us out,

187
00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:19.960
We come out, We inspect your roof. If you don't

188
00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:22.639
need anything, we high five each other. We say see

189
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:25.559
you next year. If you do, we take some pictures,

190
00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:28.720
we take some measurements. We show you what your home needs.

191
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:30.840
It may not be a whole roof, it may be

192
00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:34.080
just some small repairs that will extend your roof life.

193
00:12:34.399 --> 00:12:36.720
But when you let small things go on your home,

194
00:12:36.879 --> 00:12:39.879
they always turn into larger and that's where it goes

195
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:42.320
down here really fast. So all you have to do

196

197
00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:47.519
honest opinion about it, and then you can make a decision.

This is the Treehouse Show. I'm Daniel Maley along with

212
00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:47.159
Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. Today is Thursday, April twenty fourth,

213
00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:54.120
twenty twenty five. Do you guys ever miss your school days?

214
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:56.360
Yeah? Yeah?

215
00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:01.919
What about what about substitute teacher school days? Weren't those

216
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:06.720
the best when they rolled in that television? Oh god? Yeah,

217
00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:09.320
those days are obviously gone for the three of us,

218
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:13.360
But that doesn't mean substitute teacher days aren't still fun.

219
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:18.960
Like this substitute teacher day in Florida. It was truly

220
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:27.039
action packed. A former substitute teacher in Florida. That should

221
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.639
give you a pretty big clue right there. A former

222
00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:33.200
substitute teacher in Florida is facing felony charge just after

223
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:40.879
she allegedly encouraged two middle school students to fight. Taysha

224
00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:44.320
Holmes is twenty. She was arrested by. Seems kind of

225
00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:46.440
young for a substitute teacher, doesn't it.

226
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:51.039
The departments are weird because it's I think you have

227
00:14:51.080 --> 00:14:55.720
to have thirty hours and a like a CEA average

228
00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:58.799
if you want to just be a substitute.

229
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:03.000
Okay, not sure what the requirements are in Florida, but

230
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:07.559
that sounds like Texas stuff. Maybe I would assume similar anyway.

231
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.399
Taja Holmes was arrested by Hendry County School Resource officers

232
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:14.799
on April sixteenth after a parent showed officials a video

233
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:17.360
on her child's cell phone of an n class altercation

234
00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:21.200
between two students the day before. The censored video appeared

235
00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:25.559
to show Homes, the substitute teacher, holding back one student

236
00:15:25.559 --> 00:15:28.919
who was being taunted by another. As both students continue

237
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:31.519
to argue, Homes can be heard telling them to deal

238
00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:36.799
with their issues outside of school at the park. One

239
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:39.399
of the kids wasn't even a student in the class.

240
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:44.440
I had this kid get in here. That part doesn't

241
00:15:44.440 --> 00:15:47.679
seem to come up again in the story. One of

242
00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:52.440
the kids wasn't a student in the class. Holmes had

243
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:55.679
requested that the front desk send the student who wasn't

244
00:15:55.679 --> 00:15:58.039
even in the class into her classroom. Although it's unclear

245
00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:02.080
why now they're saying they're really taken aback by the

246
00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:04.519
behavior of what we saw, what we heard on this video.

247
00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:08.360
This is according to police department spokesperson. At one point,

248
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:10.639
she tells the students in one of the videos that

249
00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:13.080
they need to take it outside or take it off

250
00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:16.559
school campus and take it to the park. That the

251
00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:20.519
police captain went on to say, you don't encourage children

252
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:27.080
to fight. Yeah, you do. I for one give the

253
00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:29.679
teacher credit. She did not break the first rule of

254
00:16:29.720 --> 00:16:35.480
student fight club, which is, of course you do not

255
00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:38.399
talk about student fight club. I mean, how it was

256
00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:41.799
video evidence that took her down. I mean, Tyler Durden

257
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:49.519
would be proud. The district says she passed background checks

258
00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:51.840
and has been working in the district for the past

259
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.759
two years, so that means conceivably. She started working at

260
00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:00.320
the district when she was eighteen. The superintendent hold the

261
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:02.960
local news that the district is continuing to add safety

262
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:06.079
layers to our schools, had said that Holmes has since

263
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:11.519
been fired and banned from all Hendry County schools.

264
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:16.319
That's so unfortunate. Like that's an old that's an old saying,

265
00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:18.079
Like take it to the yard. Like that's an old

266
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:20.880
that's an old saying. And that's what she did. She said,

267
00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:24.079
don't do this in my class, take it outside. Yeah,

268
00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:25.359
I'm okay with that.

269
00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:28.559
You know what I am too. But the truly alarming

270
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:31.720
thing is when we were in school, the substitute teacher

271
00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:35.799
would roll into television with this substitute teacher, she rolled

272
00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:38.079
in the bully who doesn't even go to the school,

273
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:41.680
isn't even in the class, to confront the kid, and

274
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:43.599
then had the gall to say, y'all need to take

275
00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:44.119
this outside.

276
00:17:46.119 --> 00:17:47.799
Where did she find that kid?

277
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:51.880
I'm wondering did they know each other? Was I mean,

278
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:54.200
there's so many questions with this story.

279
00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:56.680
I mean sounds like she was running a you know,

280
00:17:58.359 --> 00:18:02.200
undercover fight club, that she had money, she had money

281
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:04.279
on the on the outside kid, that she did she

282
00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:05.119
had money on the ring.

283
00:18:05.880 --> 00:18:10.960
Yeah, we have like a Florida version of Fight Club

284
00:18:11.000 --> 00:18:15.119
which turns into basically a mashup of student fight Club

285
00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:17.759
and student blood Sport at the Kumi te at the Park.

286
00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:21.039
I'm sure there's a gator in there somewhere.

287
00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:31.559
It's two middle school students and a gator. Can we

288
00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:34.359
put that on TV? Right after the smacking of the

289
00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:38.559
pope with a hammer? ESPN The oo is going to

290
00:18:38.599 --> 00:18:39.559

Dan along with Tray and Raj. Today is Thursday, April

302
00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:41.319
twenty fourth, twoenty twenty five. How do you know that

303
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:45.880
you had a good Easter? I'll tell you how these

304
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:49.920
Texas residents got a surprise Easter gift packages at Cocaine

305
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:56.160
washed up on their coastline. Yeah, party time. The packages

306
00:19:56.200 --> 00:19:59.440
were reportedly tossed into the ocean by smugglers hoping to

307
00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:03.440
evade CA during a drug raid. Police urged the public

308
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:07.519
to contact police immediately if they find anything unusual during

309
00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:10.759
their beach visits. Meanwhile, upon hearing the news, raj Is

310
00:20:10.799 --> 00:20:14.559
Alma Mater Texas State students have declared spring break too

311
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:24.119
cocaine boogaloo. All right, Yeah, there might be another possibility

312
00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:27.680
to this story and might not have been panicked drug smugglers.

313
00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:32.200
You know, maybe some countries just celebrate Easter differently. Colombian

314
00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:34.400
kids might not have the Easter bunny. Maybe they have

315
00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:39.039
Peter cocaine tail and maybe instead of Easter egg hunts,

316
00:20:39.079 --> 00:20:41.480
maybe they have eight ball searches. Just trying to keep

317
00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:42.599
an open mind.

318
00:20:44.160 --> 00:20:47.559
Maybe it's the Galveston Chamber of Commerce just going, you know,

319
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:51.400
come enjoy our dirty ass water. But you know, you

320
00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:53.400
might walk away with kelo.

321
00:20:54.000 --> 00:20:59.359
You might. And let's be honest, Texas beaches are not

322
00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:02.480
exactly up there as far as the tourism demand like

323
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:08.680
other American beaches they they I mean, have you ever

324
00:21:08.759 --> 00:21:14.079
seen advertisements for the Texas coast. It's not close ups

325
00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:18.960
of the beach like in Florida or what is it,

326
00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:22.960
Orange Beach, whatever it is. In Alabama, they'll have nice

327
00:21:23.079 --> 00:21:27.200
pretty photos and videos of up close of the sand

328
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:30.920
and the water. In Texas, it's usually like a drone

329
00:21:30.920 --> 00:21:33.799
shot a mile high that just shows sand and water.

330
00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:36.759
It's like they we got it, but it's not very pretty,

331
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:42.160
but it's there. That's kind of it's I don't know

332
00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:46.559
what the Texas beach you know slogan is for tourism,

333
00:21:46.599 --> 00:21:48.839
but it's got to be up there with the one

334
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:54.119
from the eighties. Oklahoma is okay? Texas beaches, Yes.

335
00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:54.480
We have some.

336
00:21:57.200 --> 00:21:59.960
I mean, Florida has some beautiful beaches with white sand

337
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:06.079
and greenish turn turquoise ish waters. You're right, Trey, I mean,

338
00:22:08.039 --> 00:22:10.039
come to the coast. You might get a kilo of

339
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:12.119
drugs to sell. You might, you might, you might, you

340
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:12.960
might make it rich.

341
00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:15.119
Come for the beach, stay for the blow.

342
00:22:15.640 --> 00:22:21.319
Yeah, you don't even need the metal detector. You don't

343
00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:23.880
have to look like a nerd. You can actually just

344
00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:26.160
comb the beach and like, look at you what I found?

345
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:30.359
Texas beaches. You have no idea what our street value is.

346
00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:35.279
And since and since the beaches are not white powdery sand,

347
00:22:35.839 --> 00:22:38.359
you won't be able to see the cocaine very clearly.

348
00:22:43.279 --> 00:22:45.519
The problem is it's Texas and you've got to get

349
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:48.759
there before Michael Irvin and any other NFL players here

350
00:22:48.799 --> 00:22:49.240
about it.

351
00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:54.319
Come to the beach. It's like living living living a

352
00:22:54.359 --> 00:22:59.920
scratch off, get a shark bite, might get a k.

353
00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:08.759
You might get both. In the story, I saw one

354
00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:12.480
of the packages that had supposedly washed up on the beach.

355
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:15.720
It's big. I mean, this is this is not like

356
00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:20.079
you know, this is not like a random party in

357
00:23:20.119 --> 00:23:22.759
Addison on a on a Thursday night type of thing.

358
00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:26.200
I mean, this is It's not an eight ball No, no,

359
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:29.759
this is like it's the whole table. Yeah, it's the

360
00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:36.279
whole table. And yeah, it absolutely is. That is outstanding.

361
00:23:37.279 --> 00:23:39.480
This is not the first time packages of cocaine have

362
00:23:39.640 --> 00:23:42.680
washed up on the shores of coastal communities. Last year,

363
00:23:42.759 --> 00:23:46.759
more than one hundred pounds of narcotics were discovered along

364
00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:50.759
Florida's shores in the wake of Hurricane Debbie. See that's

365
00:23:50.799 --> 00:23:54.240
one way a hurricane is not so bad, because you

366
00:23:54.359 --> 00:23:56.240
go outside and your house might be gone, but it

367
00:23:56.319 --> 00:23:59.039
might have been replaced by a whole lot of cocaine.

368
00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:02.000
Yeah, then you sell the cocaine and you build a

369
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:02.440
new house.

370
00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:07.799
I wonder if this is has sparked a industry of

371
00:24:08.720 --> 00:24:11.720
you know, especially post storm people rushing down to the

372
00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:15.240
beaches to see if they can find drugs better than

373
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:16.000
a metal detector.

374
00:24:16.519 --> 00:24:18.480
Yes, you don't have to look like a nerd with

375
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:21.279
a metal detector. You can go down there, like what

376
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:24.119
are the Japanese sandgarden things that you're supposed to keep

377
00:24:24.119 --> 00:24:25.759
on your desk. You just go down there with like

378
00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:28.119
a big, big rake and you just do that and

379
00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:29.799
like look here, here, there's what I found.

380
00:24:31.880 --> 00:24:34.000
And who do you sell it? Like, okay, let's see

381
00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:36.000
you do pick up a kilo of cocaine?

382
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:37.880
Uh huh, what do you do?

383
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:41.000
I mean you and you don't do cocaine because if

384
00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:46.160
you do cocaine, you're set for a while, you're solid. Yeah,

385
00:24:46.200 --> 00:24:47.680
but who do you sell it to?

386
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:52.000
Here's what you do if you love drugs, if you

387
00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:56.440
love cocaine and you find a huge, huge shipment of

388
00:24:56.480 --> 00:25:00.240
it that has washed up on the Texas coast, you

389
00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:02.880
take it to Brenham, Texas, which is home to blue

390
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:06.279
Bell because blue Bell has the slogan we eat all

391
00:25:06.279 --> 00:25:09.720
we can and we sell the rest. Use the same

392
00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:15.000
mentality with your drugs. Okay, I snored all I could

393
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:18.559
and you can have the red all the rest also

394
00:25:18.559 --> 00:25:21.039
would make a hell of an interesting flavor out of

395
00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:26.200
blue Bell. I don't know what it is on the

396
00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:27.559
top of my head, but it's gonna.

397
00:25:27.319 --> 00:25:35.839
Be fun confetti cocaine. Un like confetti cake cocaine flavor paths,

398
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:41.440
that's always a half pine of partying.

399
00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:44.079
Blowberry.

400
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:46.480

00:26:41.400 --> 00:26:45.920
He's Trey. That is Raj. Today is Thursday, April twenty fourth,

411
00:26:46.680 --> 00:26:50.799
twenty twenty five. I saw something alarming this morning and

412
00:26:50.920 --> 00:26:53.720
I realized, yep, I should probably share that with the

413
00:26:53.799 --> 00:27:02.400
guys and everyone here inside the treehouse. Are you guys

414
00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:06.119
familiar with the video game slash television show The Last

415
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:06.400
of Us?

416
00:27:08.039 --> 00:27:11.799
Yeah? Yes, fact I just started watching season two last night.

417
00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:20.119
All right, good, well, uh let's see. Hang on a second,

418
00:27:20.920 --> 00:27:22.960
there is I need to find my bleep here.

419
00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:24.440
Uh.

420
00:27:24.599 --> 00:27:27.759
Here's something that should absolutely scare the out of you.

421
00:27:28.920 --> 00:27:33.160
The science behind the Last of Us is real. The

422
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:36.319
wildly successful video game and hit TV show is based

423
00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:43.839
on actual science and we have proof. Okay, hang on

424
00:27:43.880 --> 00:27:47.200
a second. When you show you something very, very troubling.

425
00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:53.200
Across something truly incredible. Tonight in front of me is

426
00:27:53.240 --> 00:27:56.920
a transula that, unfortunately for it, has become infected by

427
00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:57.640
forty steps.

428
00:27:59.359 --> 00:28:01.839
So Raj and you have not seen or played The

429
00:28:01.880 --> 00:28:05.559
Last of Us. It's a zombie a post apocalyptic movie, right,

430
00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:08.680
but it's not traditional zombies, and zombies that are made

431
00:28:08.680 --> 00:28:11.920
out of fungus spores from the fungus known as cortyceps.

432
00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:16.440
And in the show, it is very freaky looking because

433
00:28:16.440 --> 00:28:20.240
it's basically zombies that got mushroom stems and stuff popping

434
00:28:20.279 --> 00:28:25.160
out of them. So it's very freaky. That's a real thing,

435
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:28.799
and this is proof of it, because this is a

436
00:28:28.839 --> 00:28:33.559
guy in a jungle somewhere who has found courtceps that

437
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:36.880
has taken over a tarantula and killed it. And just

438
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:38.880
like you see in the television show and in the

439
00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:42.559
video game, the courtceps sprouts are popping out of it

440
00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:46.359
to spread the deadly fungus. Sorr, here we go.

441
00:28:46.759 --> 00:28:50.079
Bumbled across something truly incredible. Tonight. In front of me

442
00:28:50.319 --> 00:28:53.960
is a transula that, unfortunately for it, has become infected

443
00:28:53.960 --> 00:28:55.920
by cordyceps. Now, for those of you who don't know

444
00:28:55.960 --> 00:28:59.160
what Cordyceps says, this is the zombie fungus that's the

445
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:01.839
inspiration for the hit video game and TV show The

446
00:29:01.880 --> 00:29:05.039
Last of Us. And well, this unfortunate transula is a

447
00:29:05.160 --> 00:29:08.200
character in his own movie Here Tonight. Now he was

448
00:29:08.240 --> 00:29:12.519
infected by this fungus and it's Gover's nervous system and

449
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:15.319
forced him to come to this location. And then as

450
00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:18.359
he died, the fungus sprouted out of his body, allowing

451
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:22.440
the spores to spread to another unsuspecting transula. And this

452
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:25.799
is actually a very rare species of cordisaps. We rarely

453
00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:29.119
encounter trenschills like this, and when I say species of cordyspps,

454
00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:33.519
it's true. Each group of invertebrates has their own species

455
00:29:33.519 --> 00:29:37.640
of Cordyceps which infects them. So this is truly horrific

456
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:40.200
but also incredible thing for our team to have found tonight.

457
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.640
And that guy is Chris Kittolap. He's the head field

458
00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:50.039
research coordinator for Wilderness International. And that's his head right

459
00:29:50.039 --> 00:29:53.920
there next to that fun guy sports viewing tarantula, sucking

460
00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:54.400
it all in.

461
00:29:57.559 --> 00:29:59.599
It's not gonna it won't infect him, will it?

462
00:30:01.079 --> 00:30:01.480
Not yet?

463
00:30:01.599 --> 00:30:04.759
No? Oh, what's that tray said?

464
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:05.319
Not yet?

465
00:30:05.920 --> 00:30:10.960
Not yet? But this means everything that happens in the

466
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:14.680
Last of Us could conceivably happen in real life. And

467
00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:18.200
that means and that means if you want to survive,

468
00:30:19.000 --> 00:30:21.680
you need to find yourself a hairy survivalist and take

469
00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:25.440
his gay virginity. Granted I've only seen season one, but

470
00:30:25.519 --> 00:30:28.240
that's a solid example on how to survive unless you

471
00:30:28.279 --> 00:30:31.279
want to become a cannibal. But either way, you're kind

472
00:30:31.319 --> 00:30:32.000
of eat some meat.

473
00:30:34.759 --> 00:30:42.559
Yeah, that's a There were certain things I never needed

474
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:47.119
to see in my life.

475
00:30:46.960 --> 00:30:49.400
And one of them is episode three, season one of

476
00:30:49.519 --> 00:31:01.680
the Last of Us. Yeah, it's very sweet, very endearing,

477
00:31:01.839 --> 00:31:03.400
lots of touching and touching.

478
00:31:04.440 --> 00:31:06.920
Yeah, nick Offerman, if I had never seen I mean,

479
00:31:07.240 --> 00:31:10.400
and this is not you know, there was just there's

480
00:31:10.400 --> 00:31:12.359
some things I never needed to see, and Nick Offerman

481
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:14.039
kissing another guy was one of them.

482
00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:19.160
It's just you know, and that's okay. So I'm lost.

483
00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:20.640
That's how you saved yourself.

484
00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:24.920
That's that's how. That's how two particular men in the

485
00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:29.680
story at very very seemingly enjoyable lives in the in

486
00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:35.279
the apocalypse one one one felt. It's pretty It's pretty

487
00:31:35.279 --> 00:31:37.000
interesting when you think about it, because you have a

488
00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:39.640
you have a survivalist who has his own compound and

489
00:31:39.640 --> 00:31:43.119
he's by himself until a really attractive stranger falls in

490
00:31:43.160 --> 00:31:44.599
his hole, and then.

491
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:50.240
We're either one of them gay at first I mean,

492
00:31:50.319 --> 00:31:52.960
or is it just lack of options and eventually it happens.

493
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:57.079
I actually, So we have not started watching season two yet.

494
00:31:57.079 --> 00:32:02.880
We're rewatching season one and we just rewatched that episode.

495
00:32:03.359 --> 00:32:07.759
So I'll be happy to feel you in Drey, it

496
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:14.000
is fresh in her mind. Yes, but uh, the guy

497
00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:18.400
that falls in the hole, uh is is gay and

498
00:32:18.440 --> 00:32:22.519
the survivalist who made the hole that hadn't been filled

499
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:26.920
as a trap, had never been with a man, but

500
00:32:27.000 --> 00:32:32.279
he knew he was. And then this handsome stranger I.

501
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:34.839
Thought he was married and like he lost his wife

502
00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:35.359
and kids.

503
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:39.519
Now Offferman's character lived in the house with his mama,

504
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:43.039
and then he had his survivalist basement stuff, and then

505
00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:45.279
mom had passed away and he had he had never

506
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:46.839
been with a dude.

507
00:32:47.359 --> 00:32:48.960
And by the way, unless they figure out a way

508
00:32:49.000 --> 00:32:52.559
to tie that back in, that episode was completely superfluous

509
00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:53.759
to the series.

510
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:58.839
I look both times I've seen that episode and I've

511
00:32:58.839 --> 00:33:02.319
been left wondering, was that in the the original video game?

512
00:33:04.400 --> 00:33:10.559
Because what if It's like I listen, like the whole

513
00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:15.240
thing is like gay dudes can't be infected by forty steps.

514
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:17.799
What if that's the if that baby.

515
00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:21.359
That's the tie in. Yeah, I think some of us

516
00:33:21.359 --> 00:33:23.599
are going to have a real hard decision to make.

517
00:33:27.920 --> 00:33:34.960
But not you, Dan, I'm going to.

528
00:34:26.840 --> 00:34:29.800
That is Roz Scharmer. This is the Treehouse Show. Today

529
00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:36.039
is Thursday, April twenty fourth, twenty twenty five. Let's celebrate

530
00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:42.039
with some birthdays. But first I had to do a

531
00:34:42.119 --> 00:34:45.840
quick Google. All I did was type we were just

532
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:51.119
talking about season one, episode three of The Last of

533
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:55.360
Us right where it's is the story of Frank and Bill.

534
00:34:56.360 --> 00:34:59.039
If you've seen it, you know. If you don't know,

535
00:34:59.159 --> 00:35:01.239
then you've already heard more than you may or may

536
00:35:01.280 --> 00:35:02.920
not have wanted to. But it is what it is.

537
00:35:03.400 --> 00:35:05.559
So I went to Google to find out because even

538
00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:12.639
the second time watching season one, I wondered, is it

539
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:16.239
like this in the video game or was it something

540
00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:21.559
completely as they would say, you know, Inductor Nation type

541
00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:24.599
of stuff. So I went to Google and just typed

542
00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:27.480
in where Frank and Bill, and then I stopped to

543
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:29.480
see what the suggestions would come up to see what

544
00:35:29.519 --> 00:35:35.760
other people were searching. Those suggestions were franken Bill in

545
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:38.800
the game where Frank and Bill gay? In the Game

546
00:35:39.320 --> 00:35:42.639
where Frank and Bill gay? Our Frank and Billy Ocean related?

547
00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:47.159
How that got in there? But it is our Frank

548
00:35:47.239 --> 00:35:49.760
and Bill in the Last of Us? How long we're

549
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:52.360
frankn Build together? How old we're franken Bill when they died?

550
00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:55.440
How old we're frankn Bill? How long we're franken built together?

551
00:35:55.519 --> 00:35:59.239
In the Last of Us? Was Frank Bill's boyfriend? So

552
00:35:59.559 --> 00:36:03.599
almost all of those people were curious, although now I'm

553
00:36:03.639 --> 00:36:07.719
really curious about a Billy Ocean tie in. But to

554
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:10.239
answer the question as to whether or not Bill and

555
00:36:10.280 --> 00:36:12.960
Frank were in the game, and then if the TV

556
00:36:13.079 --> 00:36:20.559
show played it up or whatever, Yes, Frank and Bill

557
00:36:20.599 --> 00:36:23.280
were in the game. Bill's character is implied to have

558
00:36:23.320 --> 00:36:27.119
had a romantic relationship with his partner, Frank, who lived

559
00:36:27.119 --> 00:36:29.639
with him in Lincoln for some time after the outbreak.

560
00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:34.159
In the games, they say, we recognize that Bill is gay. However,

561
00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:36.840
in the show we see how he struggled with that

562
00:36:37.039 --> 00:36:40.199
and overcame it, resulting in probably one of the most

563
00:36:40.199 --> 00:36:43.079
important episodes of television I've ever seen. That was according

564
00:36:43.119 --> 00:36:46.679
to somebody on Reddit. In the game, they say Bill

565
00:36:46.760 --> 00:36:50.480
only says he was my partner, and they also mentioned

566
00:36:50.480 --> 00:36:55.519
that Ellie finds a certain magazine in Bill's trash can

567
00:36:56.000 --> 00:36:57.400
or or in a basement.

568
00:36:57.639 --> 00:37:02.800
Basically, Frank Ocean is a I think he is an

569
00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:05.320
R and B singer or a rapper. That is, it's

570
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:10.000
implied that he's gay. Okay, so that's where the Frank

571
00:37:10.039 --> 00:37:12.199
and Billy Ocean come from.

572
00:37:13.039 --> 00:37:16.280
I think Frank Ocean and Frank Ocean related to Billy Ocean.

573
00:37:18.119 --> 00:37:20.360
I don't know if that needs sexuality. I think people

574
00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:21.800
are probably just curious.

575
00:37:22.119 --> 00:37:23.920
Yeah, I think they just got wrapped up in this

576
00:37:23.960 --> 00:37:24.519
one drag.

577
00:37:26.079 --> 00:37:32.159
Yeah, I think that on collateral damage a stray.

578
00:37:32.039 --> 00:37:36.199
Anyway, So now you know birthdays today inside the Treehouse,

579
00:37:36.239 --> 00:37:41.599
we've got Steve Harrington on Stranger Things. The actor is

580
00:37:41.719 --> 00:37:46.280
Joe Keery. He is thirty three years old today. Joe Keery,

581
00:37:46.320 --> 00:37:49.800
who plays Steve Harrington on Stranger Things, thirty three today.

582
00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:53.519
Another one of those great examples of old people playing

583
00:37:53.559 --> 00:37:56.920
high school kids. Of course, at this point, as we've

584
00:37:56.920 --> 00:37:59.960
talked about before, when Stranger Things Season five comes out,

585
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:03.000
pretty much all these kids that started out as kids

586
00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:05.159
are all like in their twenties and thirties, some of

587
00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:07.840
them maybe in their forties. How some of these kids

588
00:38:07.880 --> 00:38:10.840
may may actually be retired, but they're still having to

589
00:38:10.840 --> 00:38:13.440
play high school kids in the series. They're probably just

590
00:38:13.480 --> 00:38:15.440
gonna end up having to dage them all, you know,

591
00:38:15.639 --> 00:38:16.559
in post.

592
00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:18.599
I'm pretty sure after the fifth season all of them

593
00:38:18.599 --> 00:38:19.559
will be able to retire.

594
00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:27.000
I think you're right, Although I did see that us Gatton,

595
00:38:27.239 --> 00:38:30.679
Gayton Matazarro. He's the one of the stranger things kids

596
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:32.559
that had he had to messed up teeth, had the

597
00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:37.400
curly hair. Okay, he just want to play Dusty or Dustin.

598
00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:43.079
He is. He's just been cast in the Animal Farm

599
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:47.360
that is being produced by Andy serkis. So he just

600
00:38:47.480 --> 00:38:50.639
joined a superstar studded cast that's going to be an

601
00:38:50.679 --> 00:38:55.039
animated film of the George Orwell famous book Animal Farm.

602
00:38:55.360 --> 00:39:00.760
Andy serkis, Glenn Close, Gayton Matazzarro's in it, Tody Harrelson

603
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:02.880
is in it, and also going to be, you know,

604
00:39:03.360 --> 00:39:06.000
on the producing staff. It's a hell of a cast

605
00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:08.239
they're going to have for that. If you're a or

606
00:39:08.280 --> 00:39:11.800
a Weller Animal Farm fan, just there you go. Something

607
00:39:11.840 --> 00:39:12.559
I saw and I'm sharing.

608
00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:16.559
I don't know that anyone is going to enjoy a

609
00:39:16.960 --> 00:39:20.480
modern Hollywood take on Animal Farm.

610
00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:23.920
What's going to be interesting is to see how many

611
00:39:23.960 --> 00:39:27.480
parents unwittingly take their children, yeah to a cartoon movie

612
00:39:27.960 --> 00:39:35.199
and they're going to see some things. Yeah.

613
00:39:35.039 --> 00:39:36.480
Well, if you want to know what the next Lightning

614
00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:38.440
Rod will be of twenty twenty six, there you go.

615
00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:44.760
Yeah, that'll be it for sure. Other birthdays today, Carly

Sat and former Hyena's waitress.

621
00:40:02.199 --> 00:40:06.400
That's right. I always I forgot about that, was that

622
00:40:06.480 --> 00:40:08.480
the Arlington Hyens or the Dallas.

623
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:13.400
Hyenas, Arlington Hyenas, And when when she got passed to

624
00:40:13.519 --> 00:40:15.599
go to Hollywood whatever, they changed the story because they

625
00:40:15.639 --> 00:40:17.920
didn't want people to see her like being in a

626
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:19.960
CD night, you know, a city club with you know,

627
00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:21.719
comics and drugs and.

628
00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:23.079
Oka all that stuff.

629
00:40:23.079 --> 00:40:24.679
Stuff. They gave her the they gave her the movie

630
00:40:24.679 --> 00:40:26.280
theater thing that she had in high school.

631
00:40:26.599 --> 00:40:31.119
That's so stupid. Look, uh, Hyenas Arlington, It's just a

632
00:40:31.159 --> 00:40:34.960
comedy club. I lived in Arlington for many, many years.

633
00:40:35.039 --> 00:40:38.519
There are way way, way worse clubs than Hyenas. I

634
00:40:38.519 --> 00:40:42.199
know because I've been to them, especially the ones off

635
00:40:42.239 --> 00:40:44.599
of one fifty seven in that little bit of no

636
00:40:44.760 --> 00:40:49.639
man's land between fort Worth and Arlington. Yeah.

637
00:40:49.679 --> 00:40:52.119
She they when she left, like she didn't even take

638
00:40:52.119 --> 00:40:53.920
her last paycheck and they just taped it to the wall.

639
00:40:54.920 --> 00:40:57.559
So yeah, that was pretty weld good on her.

640
00:40:58.159 --> 00:40:59.880
Yeah.

641
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:08.400
From Berlissen to Hollywood, it's pretty sad if you think

642
00:41:08.400 --> 00:41:09.840
about it. Like, the most you would think got a

643
00:41:09.840 --> 00:41:12.159
comedy club. The most famous person to come through a

644
00:41:12.199 --> 00:41:14.519
comedy club you would think would be a comedian, and

645
00:41:14.639 --> 00:41:16.519
instead it turned out to be a pop singer who

646
00:41:16.599 --> 00:41:18.199
just happened to be a server there.

647
00:41:18.719 --> 00:41:22.639
Yeah.

00:41:23.280 --> 00:41:26.800

00:42:19.639 --> 00:42:22.400
of the bad guys in Furious seven and one of

665
00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:25.440
the leads. I believe his first film was as the

666
00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:33.800
lead in Amistada Not a Bad Birthday Day. Also, uh

667
00:42:33.960 --> 00:42:42.039
Raj's favorite Barbara Streisand is eighty three star of Because

668
00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:42.800

He's Trey that ear is that there is RAJ. Today's Thursday,

677
00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:34.880
April twenty fourth, twoenty twenty five. We have the NFL

678
00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:41.480
Draft is tonight. Round one of the NFL Draft is tonight. Now, granted,

679
00:43:42.039 --> 00:43:44.840
we're all a little biased here because we're long suffering

680
00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:49.599
Cowboys fans, But unless there's a new blue chip owner

681
00:43:49.639 --> 00:43:52.199
on the board, I don't know if I'm really looking

682
00:43:52.239 --> 00:43:54.719
forward to the draft tonight and the Cowboys pick at.

683
00:43:54.599 --> 00:44:00.400
Twelve, Yeah, they'll screw it up.

684
00:44:00.679 --> 00:44:06.599
Yeah, for sure, they'll get a kicker, the one thing

685
00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:08.559
we don't need, and they would spend that in the

686
00:44:08.599 --> 00:44:09.159
first round.

687
00:44:09.199 --> 00:44:11.960
That actually would Yeah, that would actually be a MAVs

688
00:44:12.000 --> 00:44:13.280
type blunder.

689
00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:18.440
I mean yeah, I think the most intriguing thing about

690
00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:21.519
the draft will be where shit or Sanders goes. Yeah,

691
00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:26.920
and other than that, it seemed to be a fairly

692
00:44:27.000 --> 00:44:29.199
lackluster draft.

693
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:31.400
That's what I thought was interesting. I was listening, uh,

694
00:44:31.639 --> 00:44:34.679
listening to our Old Buddies station, Old Buddy Gavin Spittle station,

695
00:44:34.760 --> 00:44:38.960
one to five through the fan and they were they

696
00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:42.239
were saying something about they were saying something similar that

697
00:44:42.840 --> 00:44:45.440
most of the consensus around the NFL, at least as

698
00:44:45.440 --> 00:44:48.480
far as quarterbacks are concerned, is there's not really a

699
00:44:48.519 --> 00:44:53.920
great one in here. But where it is is that

700
00:44:53.960 --> 00:44:56.400
Tennessee is still going to take a quarterback at number one,

701
00:44:56.679 --> 00:44:58.519
which makes me think it's like, this is this is

702
00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:02.800
why the NFL is so stupid. Sometimes everyone pretty much

703
00:45:02.800 --> 00:45:05.639
agrees there doesn't seem to be a phenomenal quarterback in here,

704
00:45:05.639 --> 00:45:11.320
but they're still gonna take one just to see, especially

705
00:45:11.440 --> 00:45:13.880
when I also especially think the NFL is kind of

706
00:45:13.880 --> 00:45:17.840
stupid in this regard because they don't have the greatest

707
00:45:17.920 --> 00:45:21.280
track record of being right when it comes to draft picks.

708
00:45:22.039 --> 00:45:24.400
I mean, look at how many quarterbacks get taken in

709
00:45:24.440 --> 00:45:26.519
the first round, first couple of rounds, and how many

710
00:45:26.519 --> 00:45:28.920
of them turn out to be busts. The whole Ryan

711
00:45:29.000 --> 00:45:31.440
Leaf versus Peyton Manning thing. You know how many draft

712
00:45:31.480 --> 00:45:34.320
experts are saying, take Ryan Leaf, there's more talent, blah

713
00:45:34.320 --> 00:45:37.280
blah blah. Well, now look at those two in their careers.

714
00:45:38.639 --> 00:45:41.159
Love him or hate him. Dak Prescott is a top

715
00:45:41.159 --> 00:45:43.880
flight quarterback in the NFL, and he was taken in

716
00:45:43.880 --> 00:45:49.679
the fourth round. He's top, he's tops, he's top flight.

717
00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:52.800
I didn't say he's top two or three, or four or.

718
00:45:52.760 --> 00:45:55.320
Five, top fifty percent.

719
00:45:56.039 --> 00:46:01.559
Maybe definitely top fifty, easily top twenty five percent. Uh.

720
00:46:01.599 --> 00:46:02.360
Tom Brady.

721
00:46:02.519 --> 00:46:05.360
Tom Brady was the sixth round pick of the New

722
00:46:05.360 --> 00:46:08.480
England Patriots. He is now considered to be the greatest

723
00:46:08.519 --> 00:46:11.079
quarterback in the history of NF and of the NFL,

724
00:46:11.199 --> 00:46:12.519
at least arguably.

725
00:46:13.159 --> 00:46:17.840
I agreed. And you know, it's what everyone It's what

726
00:46:17.960 --> 00:46:23.000
Jerry has always wanted. It's why you explained some of

727
00:46:23.000 --> 00:46:27.239
the quarterback drafts and from Quincy Carter to that is,

728
00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:30.760
he's always wanted to find that that jewel, that pearl

729
00:46:31.000 --> 00:46:33.280
in the late rounds that he could go look at me.

730
00:46:33.480 --> 00:46:36.159
I am so genius. I drafted this person when no

731
00:46:36.320 --> 00:46:37.679
everyone else was sleeping on him.

732
00:46:38.239 --> 00:46:43.119
Yeah, hang on, Quincy Carter, Dak Prescott, you think Jerry

733
00:46:43.199 --> 00:46:44.639
Jones is looking for his black pearl.

734
00:46:46.400 --> 00:46:49.119
I think he's looking for just the.

735
00:46:50.840 --> 00:46:58.800
Yes, you might want to dig up the Pirates of

736
00:46:58.840 --> 00:47:01.960
the Caribbean. See they have the inside that Melkiber doesn't.

737
