00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.579
I'm Stephanie.
00:00:00.609 --> 00:00:01.169
I'm Meredith.
00:00:01.280 --> 00:00:04.169
And welcome to This Is My Spooky Scary Circus.
00:00:04.570 --> 00:00:07.040
And obviously I didn't get the memo that I was supposed to be spooky.
00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:08.259
I- I'm so sorry got spooky.
00:00:08.259 --> 00:00:09.490
I just did the eye makeup.
00:00:09.490 --> 00:00:11.759
I- It's dramatic it is dramatic.
00:00:11.919 --> 00:00:12.060
Yes.
00:00:12.060 --> 00:00:13.640
You look, you look amazing.
00:00:13.660 --> 00:00:14.150
Thank you.
00:00:14.210 --> 00:00:15.900
I think this should be the weekend look for you.
00:00:15.970 --> 00:00:16.309
Oh, no.
00:00:16.309 --> 00:00:16.730
God, no.
00:00:18.050 --> 00:00:20.760
Oh, how about at least the Friday look, since we're recording on Friday today?
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:23.449
I'm, I'm probably gonna go and take all of this off as soon as you leave.
00:00:23.460 --> 00:00:24.280
Okay.
00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:24.980
Okay.
00:00:25.100 --> 00:00:26.620
This is not my, aesthetic.
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:27.649
Well, you look beautiful.
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:28.000
Thank you.
00:00:28.070 --> 00:00:31.809
You- If I go out, like, to a bar or, like, a, like, a Halloween- Yeah.
00:00:31.870 --> 00:00:34.079
Yeah event- Yeah I could do this.
00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:34.979
You look sultry.
00:00:35.070 --> 00:00:38.219
But I could not pull this off on, the average- No day.
00:00:38.219 --> 00:00:39.119
Running to Food Lion.
00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:39.340
No.
00:00:39.429 --> 00:00:39.689
No.
00:00:40.070 --> 00:00:40.350
I know.
00:00:41.619 --> 00:00:41.960
I know.
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:42.750
And I don't go out.
00:00:42.770 --> 00:00:47.479
I don't leave the house much, so I've gotten to the age where, I have to...
00:00:47.789 --> 00:00:50.700
I don't have to, but I'm choosing to wear makeup more.
00:00:51.030 --> 00:00:51.780
I know.
00:00:51.890 --> 00:00:53.229
Um, yeah.
00:00:53.369 --> 00:00:53.950
And I...
00:00:54.246 --> 00:00:54.847
it just sucks.
00:00:54.896 --> 00:00:55.536
It does suck.
00:00:55.557 --> 00:00:57.587
And I'm not very good at it.
00:00:57.637 --> 00:01:00.180
I have to be in the mood to put it on.
00:01:00.371 --> 00:01:03.051
And I wanna learn how to do, the dramatic eyes.
00:01:03.051 --> 00:01:07.881
I love, like, a full glam bridal look, which is in my feed a lot, you know,'cause of the stuff.
00:01:07.891 --> 00:01:08.281
Mm-hmm.
00:01:08.381 --> 00:01:09.661
But first of all, I could never do that.
00:01:09.671 --> 00:01:11.930
But just the way they shadow and do...
00:01:12.320 --> 00:01:14.620
And I try, and it looks like I have a black eye.
00:01:14.721 --> 00:01:17.111
It's like I don't have the right tools.
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:18.381
Are we blaming it on the tools?
00:01:18.391 --> 00:01:19.460
I, I'm gonna blame it on.
00:01:19.700 --> 00:01:23.881
The other thing, I can't find the right shades I want of the shadows.
00:01:23.891 --> 00:01:23.900
Mm.
00:01:23.930 --> 00:01:28.171
And I don't wanna spend$40 on shadows to see if I like it.
00:01:28.180 --> 00:01:30.801
Some of them are really pigmented, but the wrong color.
00:01:30.850 --> 00:01:31.251
I just...
00:01:31.700 --> 00:01:32.650
Help, somebody.
00:01:32.921 --> 00:01:33.820
Somebody help me.
00:01:33.990 --> 00:01:35.370
Oh, I'm in a school group.
00:01:35.411 --> 00:01:36.441
Like, you know, like, the school app.
00:01:36.561 --> 00:01:36.881
Yeah.
00:01:37.001 --> 00:01:42.131
I haven't been in it, in that group in God knows how long, but it was like a makeup group on how to do- Oh All the makeup.
00:01:42.531 --> 00:01:50.367
Well, I need that, and I need to know what brand or types of shadows to use that have good pigment- Right that aren't just, like, crap.
00:01:50.367 --> 00:01:54.287
There's a brand on TikTok that all the TikTokers are talking about right now.
00:01:54.287 --> 00:01:57.878
I wonder why that hasn't popped up in my feed- I don't know because I've been trying to do this.
00:01:57.878 --> 00:01:58.498
I'll find it.
00:01:58.587 --> 00:02:03.007
Because they were doing, the swatch test- Yes and it was, like, super pigmented- Yeah it's a UK brand.
00:02:03.018 --> 00:02:03.867
But, like, maybe they have it- Okay.
00:02:03.918 --> 00:02:04.617
Yeah Stateside.
00:02:04.617 --> 00:02:11.048
I finally found a blush that's, like, really, really pigmented, and it's L'Oreal Infallible if anybody wants to try it.
00:02:11.298 --> 00:02:14.388
So pigmented that you have to, tap your brush before you even use it.
00:02:14.427 --> 00:02:14.888
Mm-hmm.
00:02:14.888 --> 00:02:16.168
And I'm like, okay, that's great.
00:02:16.247 --> 00:02:16.397
Mm-hmm.
00:02:16.407 --> 00:02:17.247
Like, that's what I need.
00:02:17.268 --> 00:02:19.207
I don't need to, put 15 coats on.
00:02:19.455 --> 00:02:22.566
I just want something that's- Mm-hmm that you can see the first time I put it on.
00:02:22.566 --> 00:02:22.846
Yeah.
00:02:23.575 --> 00:02:27.105
For us to not be makeup girls- No we just went full makeup.
00:02:27.605 --> 00:02:28.355
Totally off the rails.
00:02:28.366 --> 00:02:28.385
Yeah.
00:02:29.955 --> 00:02:30.665
Absolutely.
00:02:30.756 --> 00:02:32.225
So how has, life been?
00:02:32.225 --> 00:02:33.945
Oh my gosh, I've been so busy.
00:02:33.955 --> 00:02:34.175
Yeah.
00:02:34.225 --> 00:02:35.816
I've been so busy.
00:02:35.876 --> 00:02:37.605
So like I said, today's Friday.
00:02:37.605 --> 00:02:40.075
I had a wedding yesterday, which was really cute.
00:02:40.116 --> 00:02:43.056
They got married on, I think it was their grandparents' anniversary.
00:02:43.126 --> 00:02:43.376
Oh.
00:02:43.376 --> 00:02:43.985
Well, one of them.
00:02:43.996 --> 00:02:45.445
Not both of their grandparents.
00:02:45.466 --> 00:02:46.265
Well, you never know.
00:02:46.536 --> 00:02:48.045
That could be a whole nother segment.
00:02:48.165 --> 00:02:48.735
You never know.
00:02:48.735 --> 00:02:51.985
They could have the same grand- like, dates are weird.
00:02:52.045 --> 00:02:52.346
Uh-huh.
00:02:52.445 --> 00:02:53.126
Very true.
00:02:53.225 --> 00:02:53.466
Very true.
00:02:53.466 --> 00:02:53.806
Yeah.
00:02:54.216 --> 00:02:55.936
so that was yesterday, and those are exhausting days.
00:02:55.936 --> 00:02:56.665
Those are long days.
00:02:56.686 --> 00:03:01.195
Everything went fine, it's just a long, emotional, physical day.
00:03:01.656 --> 00:03:03.306
And then, with the puppy, you know how that is.
00:03:03.316 --> 00:03:05.269
That's just like all the time.
00:03:05.318 --> 00:03:05.639
Yeah.
00:03:05.748 --> 00:03:06.679
It's like a baby.
00:03:06.688 --> 00:03:07.968
It's, yeah, it's like a baby.
00:03:08.269 --> 00:03:13.498
Clifford just turned one, and he is just now starting to calm down.
00:03:13.498 --> 00:03:15.098
Get a little chill in his system.
00:03:15.258 --> 00:03:17.098
And when I say calm down, like not biting.
00:03:17.429 --> 00:03:17.838
Yeah.
00:03:18.288 --> 00:03:18.549
Yeah.
00:03:18.938 --> 00:03:20.169
But I have him outside a lot.
00:03:20.209 --> 00:03:20.579
Yeah.
00:03:20.688 --> 00:03:22.368
And I'll sit outside and, work on my phone or whatever.
00:03:22.378 --> 00:03:25.878
It's not the craziness of him being a puppy.
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:29.019
It's the potty training- Mm-hmm or housebreaking, however you say it.
00:03:29.429 --> 00:03:36.929
And then it's, they have to eat so much when they're still so little, so it's three times a day, which means he needs to go out, like, eleventy thousand times a day.
00:03:37.248 --> 00:03:37.399
Mm-hmm.
00:03:37.669 --> 00:03:42.639
So by the time- Yeah I feed him and get him out and come back in and he takes a little bit of a nap, it's time to do it all over again.
00:03:42.688 --> 00:03:42.908
Yeah.
00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:44.318
It's just, it's exhausting.
00:03:44.389 --> 00:03:44.658
Yeah.
00:03:44.718 --> 00:03:49.908
Especially when you go from having a dog that's just, like, sleeps all the time and, you know, 30, you know.
00:03:49.949 --> 00:03:50.269
Yeah.
00:03:50.389 --> 00:03:51.348
You know, I'm speaking your language.
00:03:51.688 --> 00:03:53.688
So anyway, that's just exhausting, but it'll be okay.
00:03:53.688 --> 00:03:54.908
It's just the way that it goes.
00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:55.028
Yeah.
00:03:55.088 --> 00:03:57.929
So yeah, just been really busy with weddings every weekend.
00:03:57.929 --> 00:04:00.079
I actually have another wedding on Sunday.
00:04:00.419 --> 00:04:01.598
Jackson has a game tonight.
00:04:01.609 --> 00:04:06.199
We're going to a college visit tomorrow to see the game and talk to admissions and all that kind of stuff.
00:04:06.209 --> 00:04:06.949
So you never stop.
00:04:07.209 --> 00:04:07.868
No.
00:04:08.008 --> 00:04:08.878
We're just in that.
00:04:08.938 --> 00:04:10.479
October is so busy.
00:04:10.558 --> 00:04:10.808
Yeah.
00:04:10.878 --> 00:04:12.179
And I love this month.
00:04:12.248 --> 00:04:12.479
Mm-hmm.
00:04:12.489 --> 00:04:15.639
And anybody who says this isn't their favorite month is a terrorist.
00:04:15.709 --> 00:04:16.088
Amen.
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:20.119
So yeah, yeah.
00:04:20.619 --> 00:04:21.418
It's, it's been busy.
00:04:21.418 --> 00:04:22.218
So what have you been up to?
00:04:22.488 --> 00:04:23.809
Same for you, all those things?
00:04:23.908 --> 00:04:24.869
No, not at all.
00:04:26.459 --> 00:04:29.259
Um, I successfully did my first hypnosis.
00:04:29.259 --> 00:04:30.778
I'm so proud of you for that.
00:04:30.778 --> 00:04:33.889
So that was really cool to like experience that.
00:04:34.009 --> 00:04:34.658
Yes.
00:04:34.918 --> 00:04:36.819
And, um, so yeah, that was really cool.
00:04:37.119 --> 00:04:37.959
Good for you.
00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:41.968
And just really working on a lot of the different programs- Mm-hmm and the scripts and stuff like that.
00:04:42.009 --> 00:04:43.048
How did you feel like it went?
00:04:43.218 --> 00:04:44.038
It went really good.
00:04:44.048 --> 00:04:44.408
Good.
00:04:44.459 --> 00:04:44.718
Yeah.
00:04:44.769 --> 00:04:45.488
I was excited.
00:04:45.579 --> 00:04:46.759
I'm proud of you for that.
00:04:46.769 --> 00:04:47.199
Thank you.
00:04:47.269 --> 00:04:48.658
Do you have any more on the horizon?
00:04:48.699 --> 00:04:49.149
Yes.
00:04:49.228 --> 00:04:49.588
Okay.
00:04:49.649 --> 00:04:52.778
So I've got, a lot of people that volunteered- Yeah for me to practice.
00:04:52.798 --> 00:04:53.059

They volunteered as tribute.
00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:54.338
Yeah.
00:04:56.749 --> 00:04:57.468
So I just don't make a cooked chicken.
00:04:57.468 --> 00:05:02.639
And since I found out you're not gonna tell all my dark secrets, I'll definitely, Volunteer yes, if you need, if you need.
00:05:02.988 --> 00:05:04.189
I'm proud of you, though.
00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:04.608
Thank you.
00:05:04.608 --> 00:05:05.918
You set your mind to it and you did it.

Yeah, so, and then in two weeks I can, apply for a court date for my official dissolution of marriage.

I'm so excited for that.

Amen.
00:05:19.238 --> 00:05:21.738

Like- Well, I mean, that's a nice way to put it It is.

I'm just picturing like a water and then like an Alka-Seltzer or something like dissolving in it.
00:05:28.488 --> 00:05:29.978
I wish it was just that painless and easy.
00:05:30.249 --> 00:05:31.218
No, it's freedom.

00:05:52.639 --> 00:05:52.879
Oh, yeah.
00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:53.269
You know what I mean?
00:05:53.269 --> 00:05:53.798
You can ask.
00:05:53.798 --> 00:05:54.709
I can cut it out.
00:05:55.112 --> 00:05:58.591
Um, I didn't real- I just didn't put it all together in my mind.
00:05:58.612 --> 00:05:59.302
I've just been...
00:05:59.331 --> 00:06:06.632
My dates are so off right now, but Jackson and, his girlfriend, and then some more friends went last weekend to a haunted trail.
00:06:06.692 --> 00:06:07.091
Oh.
00:06:07.221 --> 00:06:09.274
And,, they went to, it's called Booger Jim's.
00:06:09.274 --> 00:06:09.517
Wow.
00:06:09.517 --> 00:06:10.482
It's so cool.
00:06:10.482 --> 00:06:11.562
I've been to that one before.
00:06:11.922 --> 00:06:15.742
When I was growing up, haunted trail or what, it was, like, 10 bucks, five bucks for a small one.
00:06:16.192 --> 00:06:17.122
Now they're more expensive.
00:06:17.132 --> 00:06:17.151
Mm-hmm.
00:06:17.151 --> 00:06:18.161
I think it was, like, 30.
00:06:18.422 --> 00:06:20.932
But there's three events in that.
00:06:20.932 --> 00:06:21.081
Okay.
00:06:21.081 --> 00:06:24.701
Like, there's a haunted house, there's a haunted trail, there's a haunt- So it's a lot.
00:06:25.002 --> 00:06:29.721
And I've been to another one where it's got all the events, and then, they have a stage in the middle, and they'll have bands and stuff too.
00:06:29.732 --> 00:06:29.771
Oh, cool.
00:06:30.002 --> 00:06:30.391
I know.
00:06:30.422 --> 00:06:33.641
So they're, like, ev- they're not just, a in and out kind of thing now.
00:06:33.651 --> 00:06:33.672
Yeah.
00:06:33.682 --> 00:06:34.252
And I love that.
00:06:34.262 --> 00:06:34.581
Yeah.
00:06:35.351 --> 00:06:39.362
Well, I haven't been to any, here- Mm-hmm other than Car- uh, Carowinds, whatever.
00:06:39.362 --> 00:06:39.382
Yeah.
00:06:39.391 --> 00:06:41.822
And I will never go there again, ever.
00:06:41.822 --> 00:06:42.062
Yeah.
00:06:42.062 --> 00:06:42.291
Yeah.
00:06:42.351 --> 00:06:44.901
Just because how crowded it is- Right and, the lines.
00:06:44.932 --> 00:06:46.572
And- Yeah it's totally not worth.
00:06:46.651 --> 00:06:47.031
Yeah.
00:06:47.081 --> 00:06:48.432
But I brought all, all the kids.
00:06:48.482 --> 00:06:49.572
Dylan and all of his friends.
00:06:49.612 --> 00:06:49.891
Yeah.
00:06:49.901 --> 00:06:55.411
I brought them there- when they were younger, and had to- Mm-hmm obviously stay and- Yeah chaperone.
00:06:55.482 --> 00:06:56.002
I never...
00:06:56.002 --> 00:07:00.341
I wanted to go, but by the time Jackson was, like, okay to go, he's not...
00:07:00.382 --> 00:07:02.281
It took him a while to get used to scary things.
00:07:02.281 --> 00:07:02.641
Yeah.
00:07:02.665 --> 00:07:07.214
he didn't want me to be there with him, and it was when it was okay to drop him off when he was, like, 13 or whatever.
00:07:07.214 --> 00:07:07.375
Yeah.
00:07:07.375 --> 00:07:12.175
So anyway, well- Well, Dylan hasn't gone back to Carowinds since he got banned for a year.
00:07:13.634 --> 00:07:14.964
He sure showed them, didn't he?
00:07:15.745 --> 00:07:17.214
I know, that, I still can't believe that.
00:07:17.214 --> 00:07:17.425
Yeah.
00:07:17.475 --> 00:07:19.735
He's the second person I know that's been banned from Carowinds.
00:07:19.745 --> 00:07:21.855
Well, he's no longer banned, but yeah.
00:07:21.865 --> 00:07:24.384
Well, that has- Yes that has a record at Carowinds.
00:07:24.764 --> 00:07:24.944
Yes.
00:07:25.564 --> 00:07:27.295
His photo's probably still on the wall.
00:07:28.084 --> 00:07:30.824
Hold him up his- The repeat offenders list.
00:07:30.824 --> 00:07:31.125
Yeah.
00:07:32.795 --> 00:07:35.384
Oh, my goodness, so we're talking vampires today.
00:07:35.394 --> 00:07:35.834
We are.
00:07:35.845 --> 00:07:36.415
Love it.
00:07:36.435 --> 00:07:36.725
Yes.
00:07:36.735 --> 00:07:40.555
Love it, and I'm excited for our October month, that we've just got so much going on.
00:07:40.675 --> 00:07:40.995
Yeah.
00:07:41.064 --> 00:07:41.235
Mm-hmm.
00:07:41.245 --> 00:07:42.644
I'm glad that we have it already planned out.
00:07:42.644 --> 00:07:44.334
That was, that's not normal for us.
00:07:44.345 --> 00:07:46.975
No, and I'm just waiting for it to go sideways, but here we are.
00:07:46.985 --> 00:07:47.185
Yeah.
00:07:47.185 --> 00:07:48.595
And, and week one's gonna be great.
00:07:48.634 --> 00:07:48.884
Yes.
00:07:50.564 --> 00:07:53.954
so I did some research on vampires and tuberculosis.
00:07:54.024 --> 00:07:54.295
Oh.
00:07:56.555 --> 00:07:57.004
Okay.
00:07:57.035 --> 00:08:02.074
'Cause we started talking about some things, and I was like,"Okay, like I, I like medicine-y stuff, so I'll look at that." Yeah.
00:08:02.074 --> 00:08:05.884
Okay, this was actually way more interesting than I expected it to be.
00:08:05.925 --> 00:08:06.365
Okay.
00:08:06.584 --> 00:08:06.855
Okay.
00:08:07.274 --> 00:08:14.615
So back in the 17 and 1800s, so tubercu- like tuberculosis, I'm just gonna say TB- Okay was called consumption.
00:08:14.634 --> 00:08:18.935
And I've heard consumption, but I never knew that it was TB.
00:08:18.954 --> 00:08:19.274
Yeah.
00:08:19.415 --> 00:08:25.204
And the reason they called it consumption is because, people would lose a lot of weight, and they'd lose their color, and they would, look drained.
00:08:25.355 --> 00:08:25.485
Uh-huh.
00:08:25.514 --> 00:08:27.954
So it's like something was consuming them from the inside out.
00:08:28.235 --> 00:08:31.985
Never put those together- Mm-mm that consumption was TB.
00:08:31.995 --> 00:08:32.625
So anyway.
00:08:32.774 --> 00:08:34.965
I've heard of tubercul- Yeah that term.
00:08:34.975 --> 00:08:35.894
Yes, TB.
00:08:35.965 --> 00:08:36.125
Mm-hmm.
00:08:36.125 --> 00:08:36.394
Yeah.
00:08:36.445 --> 00:08:37.804
And, but I never knew what it was.
00:08:37.804 --> 00:08:39.815
Well, it's actually, so it's a lung condition.
00:08:39.835 --> 00:08:40.054
Okay.
00:08:40.085 --> 00:08:42.644
But back in the 1800s, of course, they didn't know what it was.
00:08:42.654 --> 00:08:46.445
So it affects the lungs, and it spreads through the air from person to person.
00:08:46.764 --> 00:08:48.225
Obviously, we know it's germs now.
00:08:48.254 --> 00:08:48.465
Yeah.
00:08:48.465 --> 00:08:49.634
They didn't know that back then.
00:08:49.995 --> 00:08:51.254
And it can include...
00:08:51.274 --> 00:08:52.095
And it's curable.
00:08:52.315 --> 00:08:52.774
Uh, it's...
00:08:53.065 --> 00:08:55.985
Did you ever hear about, like, an iron lung, people going in the iron lung?
00:08:55.985 --> 00:08:56.465
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:08:56.524 --> 00:09:00.315
So that's what they would try to treat them with, and, like, clean air and stuff- Okay'cause it's lung stuff.
00:09:00.705 --> 00:09:05.985
But they're coughing up blood, weight loss, lingering cough that just won't go away, night sweats.
00:09:05.995 --> 00:09:08.524
So anyway, consuming them from the inside out, right?
00:09:08.524 --> 00:09:08.845
Okay.
00:09:08.904 --> 00:09:12.715
So the name consumption makes so much more sense now that I think of what it is.
00:09:12.934 --> 00:09:13.134
Yeah.
00:09:13.154 --> 00:09:13.605
You know what I mean?
00:09:13.924 --> 00:09:14.245
Okay.
00:09:14.245 --> 00:09:18.554
So, tuberculosis would move through, an entire family, even a community.
00:09:18.674 --> 00:09:22.705
mom would get sick, and then daughter, and then dad, and they'd just dying and dropping like flies.
00:09:22.715 --> 00:09:28.414
So I mean, it would just spread so quickly'cause they didn't know what was going on with it, right?
00:09:28.414 --> 00:09:28.424
Right.
00:09:28.424 --> 00:09:38.044
So again, they're not understanding germs or the spread of the disease, but they knew something was moving through the community, and this is where the vampire part comes in.
00:09:38.054 --> 00:09:41.034
So and all of this is, based in New England- Okay for the most part.
00:09:41.054 --> 00:09:45.565
All the things I read were, like, Rhode Island, Maine, Connecticut, and I'm like,"Okay." That's weird.
00:09:45.625 --> 00:09:46.274
Very weird.
00:09:46.365 --> 00:09:46.774
Yeah.
00:09:46.855 --> 00:09:55.195
But going with it., So people started believing that the family members who had died were coming back from the grave to, suck the stuff out of their- What?
00:09:55.215 --> 00:09:57.745
I know, out of their surviving relatives.
00:09:57.784 --> 00:10:06.465
So all, basically, it was like everybody's okay, and then Mary died, and then John's dying, and clearly Mary is, like, sucking everything out of John- from beyond the grave.
00:10:06.475 --> 00:10:11.274
So, and it sounds crazy now, but y- I mean, they had to blame it on something, I guess.
00:10:11.485 --> 00:10:12.254
Blame it on the woman.
00:10:12.254 --> 00:10:14.125
Blame the woman sucking the stuff out of John.
00:10:15.075 --> 00:10:18.764
After I said that, I was like,"Oh, I can't believe I wrote that down." But anyway, here we go.
00:10:19.404 --> 00:10:23.764
So they were recognizing that it was spreading, but they didn't have all the knowledge to put it all together.
00:10:23.764 --> 00:10:25.144
So what did they start doing?
00:10:25.184 --> 00:10:26.845
They started, like, digging people up, right?
00:10:26.845 --> 00:10:26.945
Right.
00:10:26.945 --> 00:10:33.640
They're like,"Okay, so Mary died, so Mary's sucking John," so So Mary is consuming John.
00:10:33.760 --> 00:10:33.980
Right.
00:10:34.010 --> 00:10:35.730
So let's go see- Does it get any better?
00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:36.221
No.
00:10:36.941 --> 00:10:37.240
Hmm.
00:10:38.081 --> 00:10:39.451
And I don't know how to fix it.
00:10:39.510 --> 00:10:40.071
What's wrong with it?
00:10:40.071 --> 00:10:42.211
I don't know how to fix that with any names.
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:42.250
Oh.
00:10:42.441 --> 00:10:45.990
Like, if I say Gary and John, it still- Yeah gives the same.
00:10:46.150 --> 00:10:47.350
Okay, so- Keep going with it.
00:10:47.410 --> 00:10:47.831
Okay.
00:10:48.471 --> 00:10:58.471
So they would dig up their relatives, and they're like,"What's going on?" And, they were looking for, a body that hadn't decomposed properly or what they thought should be properly, or somebody s- had blood around their mouth.
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:00.490
Again, they're coughing up blood, so that could be normal.
00:11:00.831 --> 00:11:02.311
Liquid still inside the body.
00:11:02.461 --> 00:11:03.750
I know, kinda gross.
00:11:04.071 --> 00:11:06.880
And organs that looked unusually preserved.
00:11:06.971 --> 00:11:07.321
Okay.
00:11:07.331 --> 00:11:09.640
So I guess they're doing all the research, all the things.
00:11:09.740 --> 00:11:11.530
So they're cutting people up after they've already been buried.
00:11:11.530 --> 00:11:12.091
Pretty much.
00:11:12.441 --> 00:11:12.910
Pretty much.
00:11:13.010 --> 00:11:18.870
So these things can happen naturally during decomposition, like, I guess.
00:11:18.890 --> 00:11:19.921
Not now, but then.
00:11:19.941 --> 00:11:20.041
Yeah.
00:11:20.041 --> 00:11:22.211
Like, of course we're embalmed and all the things now.
00:11:22.211 --> 00:11:26.461
But anyway, so somebody would basically open a grave and be like,"Oh, she's got blood around her mouth.
00:11:26.471 --> 00:11:29.230
There's a vampire," which is crazy.
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:29.260
Yeah.
00:11:29.441 --> 00:11:29.910
She's still there.
00:11:30.130 --> 00:11:30.400
Crazy.
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:32.951
By the way, I like the spelling of a vampire with a Y in it.
00:11:33.341 --> 00:11:33.500
I know.
00:11:34.931 --> 00:11:35.600
It's bougie.
00:11:36.910 --> 00:11:40.100
So depending on where you live, the solution to that would change also.
00:11:40.110 --> 00:11:41.691
They would either, turn people over.
00:11:41.941 --> 00:11:44.831
I guess they felt like if they were facing down, then they couldn't get up.
00:11:45.211 --> 00:11:50.311
They would just, rearrange their bones or they would take their organs out and, burn their organs or whatever.
00:11:50.311 --> 00:11:52.561
So it just kinda depended on where you were.
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:56.791
I saw that they also put bricks in the mouth'cause they felt like then they couldn't, like, use their mouth.
00:11:56.801 --> 00:11:58.071
Ooh, that makes sense.
00:11:58.071 --> 00:11:58.971
I didn't read that part.
00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:00.711
And they also staked them.
00:12:01.071 --> 00:12:01.551
Yes.
00:12:01.711 --> 00:12:06.541
I've heard of the stakin'- Yeah obviously, but I didn't, A brick in the mouth after they've...
00:12:06.841 --> 00:12:07.681
I mean, like, yeah.
00:12:07.701 --> 00:12:08.801
Yeah, that's disgusting.
00:12:08.811 --> 00:12:08.831
Yeah.
00:12:08.841 --> 00:12:14.461
So, multiple vampire exhumations recorded in New England.
00:12:14.461 --> 00:12:17.780
It wasn't just, one psycho family, you know, like them you know those myths down the street?
00:12:17.780 --> 00:12:19.280
They are, they're the loony tunes.
00:12:19.630 --> 00:12:20.650
But it's a community event.
00:12:20.660 --> 00:12:25.350
The doctors would go, and the,, politicians would go, and, and neighbors could participate.
00:12:25.350 --> 00:12:28.441
So it's not just, one random man in the night, peeking in a grave.
00:12:28.451 --> 00:12:29.701
It's, a whole shebackle.
00:12:30.020 --> 00:12:35.860
And they're basically like,"Okay, we reviewed the situation, and Cheryl is a vampire, so this is what we're gonna do." Is...
00:12:35.921 --> 00:12:37.110
That just blows my mind to me.
00:12:37.140 --> 00:12:37.541
Yeah.
00:12:37.620 --> 00:12:38.587
And- Can you imagine?
00:12:38.998 --> 00:12:39.857
This is what I thought.
00:12:40.258 --> 00:12:41.508
Going to an HOA meeting.
00:12:42.758 --> 00:12:47.298
Everybody, you know, we think this is going on, and, we're just gonna take a vote.
00:12:47.347 --> 00:12:49.988
A yay or nay for, you know, digging up Scott later.
00:12:50.207 --> 00:12:51.398
Yay, nay, whatever.
00:12:52.268 --> 00:12:54.618
And speaking of HOAs, you know my ADD.
00:12:55.077 --> 00:12:55.437
Uh-huh.
00:12:55.798 --> 00:12:59.447
You're like,"Yes, I'm well acquainted." I've got the same affliction.
00:12:59.488 --> 00:12:59.888
Have you...
00:13:01.898 --> 00:13:08.798
Have you ever seen they're like parody, I hope to God they're parody, TikTok pages about, HOAs?
00:13:09.628 --> 00:13:11.748
And there's this one that kills me every time.
00:13:11.748 --> 00:13:14.028
It's like,"Your yard looks like a gas station." Uh-huh.
00:13:14.158 --> 00:13:17.158
And she's like,"You're doing 5,000 Calvin, Carl." Yeah.
00:13:17.668 --> 00:13:18.368
Yeah, that's what it was.
00:13:18.557 --> 00:13:22.707
And, she was like,"In this cold light we're a warm light community." Anyway, that just...
00:13:23.187 --> 00:13:24.038
I love those things.
00:13:24.048 --> 00:13:24.378
They're hilarious.
00:13:24.957 --> 00:13:25.957
Okay, let me reel my ADD back in.
00:13:26.618 --> 00:13:27.977
So yeah, so they're doing that.
00:13:27.977 --> 00:13:28.658
They're finding them all.
00:13:28.658 --> 00:13:29.597
Everybody gets together.
00:13:29.597 --> 00:13:32.327
Everybody has concerns, and everybody's like,"Okay.
00:13:32.327 --> 00:13:35.097
Well, the next thing to do is obviously to dig up the body." Right.
00:13:35.158 --> 00:13:36.898
So that's basically what happened with that.
00:13:36.898 --> 00:13:40.337
So there was one case, Mercy Brown.
00:13:40.677 --> 00:13:42.648
This is the best-known case.
00:13:42.788 --> 00:13:43.918
I've heard this name before.
00:13:43.967 --> 00:13:49.424
Probably- Yeah best-known American vampire case, and here's the part that like really blew my mind.
00:13:49.424 --> 00:13:52.065
So this happened in 1892, okay?
00:13:52.514 --> 00:13:52.794
Okay.
00:13:52.934 --> 00:13:58.455
Less than 100 years from when I was born, so it's not like it was like 1492- Right when Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
00:13:59.455 --> 00:14:02.504
So just to put it in perspective, so Ellis Island opened that year.
00:14:02.534 --> 00:14:03.884
I did some research on this one.
00:14:04.274 --> 00:14:07.174
The first official basketball game was played around this time.
00:14:07.615 --> 00:14:09.345
Vogue magazine was launched.
00:14:09.955 --> 00:14:11.595
The Pledge of Allegiance was introduced.
00:14:11.845 --> 00:14:13.866
Lizzie Borden murders happened then.
00:14:13.866 --> 00:14:14.154
That's a terrible story.
00:14:14.154 --> 00:14:15.904
And professional football was beginning.
00:14:15.924 --> 00:14:16.754
Oh, the, then the new...
00:14:16.784 --> 00:14:17.144
Yeah.
00:14:17.735 --> 00:14:18.615
I could not.
00:14:19.115 --> 00:14:20.335
I wanted to, and I couldn't.
00:14:20.404 --> 00:14:20.595
Okay.
00:14:20.894 --> 00:14:25.335
So anyway, all that to say this was not, like- Yeah days of yore.
00:14:25.725 --> 00:14:28.815
So Mercy Lena Brown, she lived in Rhode Island.
00:14:28.934 --> 00:14:30.434
TB had ripped through her family.
00:14:31.044 --> 00:14:35.945
Mom died, sister died, then Mercy died, and her brother Edwin was really sick.
00:14:36.715 --> 00:14:39.235
So people in the community were like,"Well, you know what?
00:14:39.235 --> 00:14:41.455
I wonder if one of them is, causing the illness.
00:14:41.465 --> 00:14:42.065
So what do we do?
00:14:42.065 --> 00:14:50.534
We go dig up people and see what they're doing." So, apparently somebody wasn't even convinced by this whole vampire theory, and that was her dad.
00:14:50.875 --> 00:14:52.075
So he, I guess he didn't die.
00:14:52.304 --> 00:14:52.575
Maybe my...
00:14:53.154 --> 00:14:53.955
No, I did it right.
00:14:53.965 --> 00:14:55.325
Her, so her mother died and her sister died.
00:14:55.325 --> 00:14:55.644
Sorry.
00:14:55.934 --> 00:14:57.205
So he was the vampire.
00:14:57.205 --> 00:14:59.695
'Cause he was still alive.
00:14:59.695 --> 00:15:00.144
Still alive.
00:15:00.654 --> 00:15:06.855
But he was like,"I don't think it's a vampire thing, but sure, let's dig her up anyway and see what happens." And they find Mercy.
00:15:07.095 --> 00:15:11.684
Now, Mercy, it was January- Okay in Rhode Island, so it's cold.
00:15:12.184 --> 00:15:14.335
So of course her body's not gonna decompose.
00:15:14.625 --> 00:15:19.835
So they're like,"Aha- We've found it we've found the vampire." So what did they do?
00:15:20.365 --> 00:15:23.134
They took her organs, and they're like,"You know what?
00:15:23.292 --> 00:15:28.450
We're gonna blend those up." Actually, they didn't blend them up I was gonna say, did they have blenders back then?
00:15:28.450 --> 00:15:29.320
It was 1892.
00:15:29.710 --> 00:15:30.230
So what did they...
00:15:30.230 --> 00:15:37.590
They took her organs, and they burned'em, and they put'em in something and gave it to Edwin to- Consume?
00:15:38.940 --> 00:15:39.320
Shut up.
00:15:39.629 --> 00:15:40.899
You know what's gonna fix you?
00:15:41.149 --> 00:15:48.600
Is if I take your sister's liver and burn it and put it in a smoothie, and you chug it, that'll fix you.
00:15:48.750 --> 00:15:49.470
It did not.
00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:51.842
Edwin still passed away, like, six months later.
00:15:51.842 --> 00:15:53.500
I would assume- Mm-hmm that that wouldn't work.
00:15:53.549 --> 00:15:54.539
It did not work.
00:15:54.659 --> 00:15:55.580
It did not work.
00:15:55.950 --> 00:15:57.279
You know, so whatever.
00:15:57.389 --> 00:16:00.210
Anyway, the craziest thing, so again, that was 1892.
00:16:01.720 --> 00:16:08.649
In 1882, Robert Koch is his name, had already determined the cause of TB.
00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:11.710
So it just, you know, things traveled so slow- Yeah then.
00:16:11.710 --> 00:16:17.159
Like, some people already knew what was going on and knew that this wasn't, you know, the milkshake wasn't gonna fix it.
00:16:17.169 --> 00:16:23.539
So, My milkshake brings all the vampires to the yard.
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:24.580
Oh, my goodness.
00:16:24.610 --> 00:16:34.279
So anyway, that's just, a long roundabout story on why people thought that vampires were causing TB and some of the things they did to prevent it, and then they attempted a cure.
00:16:34.750 --> 00:16:35.440
Which did not work.
00:16:35.549 --> 00:16:37.379
Which did not work at all.
00:16:37.450 --> 00:16:37.899
Okay.
00:16:37.940 --> 00:16:39.750
Well, that is gross.
00:16:39.860 --> 00:16:41.100
That was very gross.
00:16:41.100 --> 00:16:41.909
On so many levels.
00:16:42.139 --> 00:16:42.514
Mm-hmm.
00:16:42.514 --> 00:16:43.000
Mm-hmm.
00:16:43.210 --> 00:16:52.779
Oh, one funny side note is, they had dug up somebody, and they were like,"Well, we have to put their bones a certain way." So they started putting their bones, like the skull, and then, crossing the femurs.
00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:54.809
So they're basically giving everybody, Powers of the Caribbean.
00:16:56.500 --> 00:16:58.929
I'm like, why did they think that was gonna be...
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:00.399
You know, they're just trying whatever, I guess.
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:00.649
Yeah.
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:05.450
But anyway, so that's the story of how TB and vampires kind of intermingled.
00:17:05.529 --> 00:17:06.990
That's- Mm-hmm wacky.
00:17:07.059 --> 00:17:07.720
I thought so, too.
00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:09.539
I thought so, too.
00:17:10.109 --> 00:17:14.019
I'm just picturing, the priests be like,"Cross the bones." Right.
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:14.839
Right.
00:17:15.059 --> 00:17:16.309
Flip them over.
00:17:17.049 --> 00:17:19.250
Don't know why they had an accent, but they did.
00:17:21.430 --> 00:17:27.990
Oh, well, speaking of, did you know that, when people would say, the priests would put their hands on and cure people, it was because they were doing hypnosis?
00:17:28.009 --> 00:17:30.539
Like, really, that's what they were doing, was hypnosis.
00:17:30.569 --> 00:17:31.259
Oh.
00:17:31.309 --> 00:17:31.720
Yeah.
00:17:32.569 --> 00:17:33.220
How crazy is that?
00:17:33.220 --> 00:17:34.160
I just read a book about it.
00:17:34.369 --> 00:17:35.589
That is crazy.
00:17:35.589 --> 00:17:37.740
Yeah, so they weren't really, having, powers from God.
00:17:37.750 --> 00:17:41.299
It was they were putting people in hypnosis and, convincing them that they no longer had these ailments.
00:17:41.930 --> 00:17:42.980
I believe that.
00:17:43.019 --> 00:17:43.309
Yeah.
00:17:43.667 --> 00:17:46.121
That makes so much more logical sense.
00:17:46.310 --> 00:17:46.530
Exactly.
00:17:46.621 --> 00:17:49.641
I mean, my heart still wants to believe that God does miracles and does the things.
00:17:50.070 --> 00:17:50.641
100%.
00:17:50.820 --> 00:17:50.840
Yeah.
00:17:50.840 --> 00:17:53.891
Like, that's what religion- But that makes, like- Yeah I can connect that.
00:17:53.901 --> 00:17:54.760
That makes sense to me.
00:17:54.780 --> 00:17:55.201
Yeah.
00:17:55.580 --> 00:17:56.691
So they didn't have superpowers.
00:17:56.760 --> 00:17:57.111
I do.
00:17:57.431 --> 00:17:58.060
Oh, duh.
00:17:58.280 --> 00:17:59.810
Where, you're sitting on your cape, aren't you?
00:18:02.010 --> 00:18:03.971
It'd be a vampire cape today, with a Y.
00:18:05.921 --> 00:18:08.800
So when you think of vampires, you think of, like, Dracula.
00:18:08.851 --> 00:18:09.391
Yes.
00:18:09.451 --> 00:18:15.830
Most people, or, like, Edwin Cullen, but- Yes before Edwin went and- tried to not eat Bella.
00:18:16.490 --> 00:18:17.871
We think of Dracula.
00:18:17.921 --> 00:18:18.191
Yes.
00:18:18.221 --> 00:18:25.530
But really- the first vampire that we know of I guess, was called Vlad the Impaler.
00:18:25.530 --> 00:18:25.861
Yes.
00:18:26.721 --> 00:18:30.971
And that rabbit hole That's a rabbit hole in itself, isn't it?
00:18:30.971 --> 00:18:32.000
That was bananas.
00:18:32.050 --> 00:18:32.951
It is disgusting.
00:18:32.961 --> 00:18:38.230
So- Tell me what you learned okay, so, Okay, so Dracula was really Vlad.
00:18:38.270 --> 00:18:43.770
He was actually called Vlad III'cause he had came from a long line of Vlads.
00:18:43.770 --> 00:18:44.451
Of Vlads.
00:18:44.451 --> 00:18:45.280
Many Vlads.
00:18:46.050 --> 00:18:49.701
And I would love to do an accent, but I'm horrible at accents as we have found out.
00:18:49.750 --> 00:18:50.451
I think you should.
00:18:50.490 --> 00:18:50.780
No.
00:18:50.961 --> 00:18:51.847
People want it.
00:18:51.847 --> 00:18:53.320
Absolutely not.
00:18:53.320 --> 00:19:05.141
So this guy may have been scarier, he wasn't really a vampire but that's what they would considered- Mm-hmm, mm-hmm him, a vampire, and he was probably scarier than any vampire could probably- Yeah ever be.
00:19:05.191 --> 00:19:05.510
Yeah.
00:19:05.560 --> 00:19:09.840
He was born in 1431, not when Christopher Columbus was sailing.
00:19:09.851 --> 00:19:11.020
No, 60 years prior.
00:19:11.721 --> 00:19:17.421
And he became the ruler of Wallach- Wallacha, which is in modern-day Romania.
00:19:17.471 --> 00:19:18.080
Mm-hmm.
00:19:18.431 --> 00:19:22.421
His father was Vlad II Dracul, which is where they got Dracula.
00:19:22.421 --> 00:19:23.221
Oh, okay.
00:19:23.250 --> 00:19:32.881
And belonged to something called the Order of the Dragon, which was a Christian military order, which is kind of a cool name though, like- Yeah it's way better than army.
00:19:32.901 --> 00:19:33.711
Yeah.
00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:34.510
Yeah.
00:19:34.661 --> 00:19:36.310
I'm more intimidated by, what was the name?
00:19:36.361 --> 00:19:37.351
Order of the Dragon.
00:19:37.361 --> 00:19:42.040
Uh, yeah, the Order of the Dragon's kinda,"Oh, no, no, I'm going inside." That's so freaking cool.
00:19:42.080 --> 00:19:43.070
That is very cool.
00:19:43.131 --> 00:19:45.201
And then like- Let's talk do they ride on dragons?
00:19:45.201 --> 00:19:47.441
'Cause I 100% believe dragons exist.
00:19:47.500 --> 00:19:51.942
I think they did, and the size of the dragon depended on like how high you were in the order.
00:19:51.942 --> 00:19:54.101
That's why they think that vampires fly.
00:19:54.171 --> 00:19:55.601
It's what I'm connecting in my head.
00:19:56.480 --> 00:19:57.020
Makes so much sense.
00:19:57.050 --> 00:19:57.580
Yeah, I know.
00:19:58.101 --> 00:20:00.550
So it didn't say that in here, but that's my take on it.
00:20:00.550 --> 00:20:01.040
I love it.
00:20:01.080 --> 00:20:01.401
Yeah.
00:20:01.760 --> 00:20:07.971
So the name Dracula basically came from Vlad being the son of Dracul, often translated to something like Son of the Dragon.
00:20:08.030 --> 00:20:08.441
Okay.
00:20:08.891 --> 00:20:10.691
He was considered a medieval prince.
00:20:10.790 --> 00:20:11.161
Okay.
00:20:11.641 --> 00:20:20.641
Vlad earned his other nickname because he had a favorite execution method, and I think we've all could assume what that is.
00:20:21.161 --> 00:20:25.421
His name is Vlad the Impaler, so he impaled people, a lot.
00:20:25.500 --> 00:20:30.047
So- My curious brain when I started, I, I don't even remember.
00:20:30.047 --> 00:20:32.727
I was It was a long time ago, hearing about Vlad.
00:20:32.757 --> 00:20:41.307
And you know, you're like looking in the encyclopedia, like before, and I remember it was pictures of like huge, like telephone poles with points, and then people would just like land.
00:20:41.307 --> 00:20:41.567
Yeah.
00:20:41.717 --> 00:20:42.126
Ugh.
00:20:42.186 --> 00:20:44.426
But it was a very slow death.
00:20:44.747 --> 00:20:44.777
Okay.
00:20:44.787 --> 00:20:45.997
Like it wasn't fast.
00:20:45.997 --> 00:20:46.037
Uh-huh.
00:20:46.047 --> 00:20:48.606
Like they didn't drop him from the sky, and he just went whoosh.
00:20:48.636 --> 00:20:55.936
No, his victims would be placed on the large wooden stakes- Mm-hmm and left suspended while gravity slowly did the rest.
00:20:55.936 --> 00:20:56.457
Oh, no.
00:20:56.457 --> 00:20:58.676
Yeah, I thought he like pushed them out a window.
00:20:58.686 --> 00:20:59.507
No, no.
00:20:59.507 --> 00:21:00.646
Oh, gosh.
00:21:00.656 --> 00:21:01.807
No, it, it was like slow torture.
00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:03.549
Oh, that's terrible.
00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:04.109
Yeah.
00:21:04.190 --> 00:21:05.710
So yeah.
00:21:06.269 --> 00:21:06.779
Mm.
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:07.819
Uh-uh.
00:21:07.819 --> 00:21:15.579
So imagine being so committed to this one role- Mm-hmm of, of punishment- Right that that's how you got your name.
00:21:15.579 --> 00:21:16.539
That's your name.
00:21:16.690 --> 00:21:17.150
Yeah.
00:21:18.009 --> 00:21:18.490
Uh-uh.
00:21:18.660 --> 00:21:20.339
He embraced that, didn't he?
00:21:20.710 --> 00:21:21.809
He sure did.
00:21:22.849 --> 00:21:30.140
So, Vlad lived during a brutal period of warfare involving the Wallachia and the Ottoman Empire.
00:21:30.200 --> 00:21:30.500
Mm-hmm.
00:21:30.579 --> 00:21:33.109
And he's remembered very differently depending on who's telling the story.
00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:33.609
Of course.
00:21:33.650 --> 00:21:39.319
In many accounts outside of Romania, he's remembered for extraordinary cruelty, which, I'm on that team same.
00:21:39.710 --> 00:21:45.000
But in Romania, he's also remembered as a ruler who fought against the Ottoman expansion and defended his country.
00:21:45.059 --> 00:21:45.240
Hmm.
00:21:45.849 --> 00:21:50.369
So some of the most grotesque stories about him were spread by his p- political enemies.
00:21:50.380 --> 00:21:50.809
Mm-hmm.
00:21:50.819 --> 00:21:54.190
So, like, was he really- Mm-hmm as bad as they say?
00:21:54.220 --> 00:21:59.358
I mean, it's bad regardless, putting people on stakes and letting them slowly die.
00:21:59.598 --> 00:22:01.419
But- There were so many..
00:22:01.469 --> 00:22:03.179
You said, like early 1400s, right?
00:22:03.179 --> 00:22:04.038
They did that kind of...
00:22:04.108 --> 00:22:07.699
I mean, not like that kind of stuff- Well, they- but, like, burn people at the stake, they did- Off with their head.
00:22:07.898 --> 00:22:08.409
Yes.
00:22:08.409 --> 00:22:13.848
Like, they, they, they proved their point when they didn't agree Or felt somebody was doing something wrong.
00:22:14.298 --> 00:22:15.558
Could you imagine today?
00:22:15.788 --> 00:22:17.659
No, absolutely not.
00:22:17.749 --> 00:22:22.148
So historians have to separate documented brutality from m- medieval propaganda.
00:22:22.169 --> 00:22:23.679
So we have propaganda now.
00:22:23.699 --> 00:22:24.528
We get that.
00:22:24.749 --> 00:22:24.979
Yeah.
00:22:24.979 --> 00:22:28.078
And depending on who's saying what, what news station you watch.
00:22:28.088 --> 00:22:28.499
Mm-hmm.
00:22:28.828 --> 00:22:32.949
So some of these stories just got, like, totally- Yeah misconstrued.
00:22:33.398 --> 00:22:41.969
One famous story describes the Ottoman forces approaching Vlad's capital in 1462 and encountering what became known as a forest of the impaled.
00:22:41.969 --> 00:22:42.028
Ugh.
00:22:42.528 --> 00:22:44.838
Thousands of bodies displayed on stakes.
00:22:45.058 --> 00:22:45.509
Ugh.
00:22:45.726 --> 00:22:46.155
Gross.
00:22:46.175 --> 00:22:47.736
Oh, my gosh, I couldn't even imagine.
00:22:48.036 --> 00:22:55.155
Older accounts sometimes put the number at around 20,000, although modern historians have questioned whether that number has been exaggerated over the years.
00:22:55.375 --> 00:22:56.566
20,000?
00:22:56.566 --> 00:22:56.996
Yes.
00:22:57.276 --> 00:23:00.786
20,000 bodies that they, walked up to while they were trying to invade.
00:23:00.885 --> 00:23:01.736
Geez, okay.
00:23:02.506 --> 00:23:07.736
Vlad absolutely used impalement, but the gigantic death counts in some later accounts should be treated cautiously.
00:23:08.306 --> 00:23:15.306
Recent historian's work argues that the scale was probably exaggerated even though the underlying brutality was very real.
00:23:16.375 --> 00:23:19.935
There are stories claiming Vlad liked to eat meals surrounded by the impaled.
00:23:20.548 --> 00:23:21.009
No.
00:23:21.078 --> 00:23:21.358
Yeah.
00:23:21.628 --> 00:23:29.699
There's even stories that, he dipped his bread into their blood and ate it, and that's why they're saying he- He was a vampire- he was drinking blood and so, I mean, yeah.
00:23:29.699 --> 00:23:29.949
Right.
00:23:30.338 --> 00:23:32.929
But again, those stories are most likely propaganda.
00:23:32.929 --> 00:23:33.239
Yeah.
00:23:34.179 --> 00:23:39.469
Because medieval political smear campaigns were apparently every bit as dramatic as they are now.
00:23:40.159 --> 00:23:41.759
I was thinking, it's not gotten any better.
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:42.138
No.
00:23:42.499 --> 00:23:44.888
We've not evolved as you would think.
00:23:44.888 --> 00:23:45.858
I was about to say, at least we don't impale.
00:23:46.179 --> 00:23:46.538
Yes.
00:23:46.699 --> 00:23:48.138
Well, at least we evolved a little.
00:23:48.209 --> 00:23:48.568
Yeah.
00:23:50.409 --> 00:23:53.169
Yeah, so they considered him, the original vampire.
00:23:53.189 --> 00:23:53.608
Yeah.
00:23:53.699 --> 00:23:55.338
But- He was the OG.
00:23:55.338 --> 00:23:55.989
Yeah.
00:23:56.288 --> 00:24:01.429
So on Twilight he's the ones who, don't move for however many years, that, their faces are like stone.
00:24:03.528 --> 00:24:04.278
That's crazy.
00:24:04.338 --> 00:24:05.459
Did you like the Twilight movies?
00:24:06.699 --> 00:24:07.598
Loved the books.
00:24:07.749 --> 00:24:07.999
Yeah.
00:24:08.308 --> 00:24:09.298
Enjoyed the movies.
00:24:09.308 --> 00:24:09.618
Yeah.
00:24:10.368 --> 00:24:11.778
I read all the books when they first came out.
00:24:12.169 --> 00:24:20.038
When you go back and you watch the movies again, we've talked about, how I like to, take myself out of the situation and look, and you see, this big giant wolf.
00:24:20.739 --> 00:24:21.689
It's ridiculous.
00:24:21.689 --> 00:24:21.989
Yeah.
00:24:22.229 --> 00:24:24.898
So, but again, enjoyed them thoroughly.
00:24:24.979 --> 00:24:25.098
Yeah, yeah.
00:24:25.098 --> 00:24:28.019
Stayed up all night to read when, she had Renesmee.
00:24:28.078 --> 00:24:28.259
Yeah.
00:24:29.259 --> 00:24:34.469
What I hate is when I picture the characters so different in my head- Uh-huh than what they cast.
00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:34.798
Yeah.
00:24:34.798 --> 00:24:35.858
Oh, God, it makes me so angry.
00:24:35.996 --> 00:24:36.695
Me too.
00:24:37.246 --> 00:24:39.605
It, it just is hard for me to switch gears.
00:24:39.635 --> 00:24:39.915
Yeah.
00:24:40.465 --> 00:24:40.816
Yeah.
00:24:41.925 --> 00:24:47.336
What's- So- Yeah since you mentioned execution, can we talk about Christa Pike real quick?
00:24:47.365 --> 00:24:47.836
Yeah.
00:24:48.476 --> 00:24:49.405
You read about her?
00:24:49.405 --> 00:24:49.756
Yeah.
00:24:49.756 --> 00:24:51.066
Or seen, I mean, have you seen it all?
00:24:51.066 --> 00:24:51.276
Yes.
00:24:51.306 --> 00:24:51.665
Yeah.
00:24:51.816 --> 00:24:54.026
So quick, quick background.
00:24:54.026 --> 00:24:57.365
They tried to execute her this week, and it was unsuccessful, in Tennessee.
00:24:57.365 --> 00:24:58.655
So she's 50 years old.
00:24:58.655 --> 00:25:04.685
She was 18 in 1995 when she killed and actually tortured 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer.
00:25:04.875 --> 00:25:05.185
Yeah.
00:25:05.385 --> 00:25:10.276
And so she's been in jail this whole time, and they tried to, lethal injection her.
00:25:10.385 --> 00:25:12.115
What- however you say that properly.
00:25:12.135 --> 00:25:12.246
Yeah.
00:25:13.385 --> 00:25:16.885
This week,, they try to give her, two doses or something.
00:25:16.895 --> 00:25:17.256
Uh-huh.
00:25:17.546 --> 00:25:19.266
And she ended up, she's still alive.
00:25:19.405 --> 00:25:24.125
They took her away in an ambulance, and I guess we're just waiting to see what happens next.
00:25:24.465 --> 00:25:32.195
Something I said r- like, this is the worst time There, there's a lot of bad times to make a mistake, but something I read said, the IV wasn't in her vein.
00:25:32.509 --> 00:25:34.119
Somebody's getting fired You think?
00:25:36.140 --> 00:25:37.660
But that's such a basic thing.
00:25:37.690 --> 00:25:49.123
I feel like most nurse- now some are better than others at that kind of stuff, but I feel like that's one of those, Okay, you need to know how to do that one." And if you're not confident and you put it in and you're like,"Eh," then you go get the charge nurse.
00:25:49.123 --> 00:25:49.403
Yeah.
00:25:49.492 --> 00:25:51.212
And they come and they're like,"I got you." Yeah.
00:25:51.212 --> 00:25:54.192
Or even a doctor will do that, like if it's that difficult.
00:25:54.500 --> 00:25:55.710
I could not believe that.
00:25:55.980 --> 00:26:01.720
But then I did read that she refused her last meal or whatever and Mm I don't know if she wasn't drinking and so were her vein...
00:26:01.730 --> 00:26:02.660
Was she dehydrated?
00:26:02.660 --> 00:26:05.839
'Cause it's harder to do- Oh, yeah that- True when people are dehydrated.
00:26:05.849 --> 00:26:06.210
True.
00:26:06.529 --> 00:26:12.809
So I was thinking maybe she went on a fast or whatever and that's why they couldn't do it right.
00:26:12.849 --> 00:26:13.482
I don't- Yeah really know.
00:26:13.482 --> 00:26:17.130
I don't, I'm not, I'm not in the medical field- I- thank God, so I really don't know.
00:26:17.130 --> 00:26:18.119
I'm making shit up right now.
00:26:19.140 --> 00:26:21.640
It sounds, yeah, absol- that's what happened, absolutely.
00:26:21.650 --> 00:26:22.640
No, it sounds really good.
00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:23.640
It sounds logical.
00:26:23.910 --> 00:26:30.119
I told my sister, I was like,"You know, she is so evil," and I don't really know her, but obviously she did a very evil deed.
00:26:30.140 --> 00:26:30.210
Yeah.
00:26:30.309 --> 00:26:33.579
But, she's so evil, even the devil was like,"Nope." Hard pass?
00:26:33.609 --> 00:26:35.210
Yep, you get to stay up there.
00:26:36.470 --> 00:26:37.009
Don't want you down here.
00:26:37.250 --> 00:26:38.700
No, no, no, no, no.
00:26:38.710 --> 00:26:40.000
But I thought that was crazy.
00:26:40.009 --> 00:26:43.869
It's like the first woman they've executed or maybe even the first person in a super long time.
00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:44.329
Yeah.
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:48.275
But yeah,, I'm just interested to see what they decide.
00:26:48.275 --> 00:26:48.960
What do they do?
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:52.470
Like- Right did she serve her sentence because they technically attempted it?
00:26:53.269 --> 00:26:54.960
Or- Or yeah, they're like,"You win"?
00:26:55.569 --> 00:27:01.369
I mean, is there like some kind of catch-22 where like sh- she's now free because- No she served her sentence?
00:27:01.380 --> 00:27:03.740
But she di- I mean, she did her part.
00:27:03.980 --> 00:27:05.680
I mean- She was like,"I'm here for you to execute me.
00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:09.430
It's not my fault that you couldn't." I don't, I don't know.
00:27:09.430 --> 00:27:11.019
And then- Mm I mean, just kill her, right?
00:27:11.019 --> 00:27:13.029
Like why bring her to the hospital?
00:27:13.400 --> 00:27:14.099
Right.
00:27:14.829 --> 00:27:15.480
I don't get it.
00:27:16.819 --> 00:27:17.829
I don't either.
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:20.230
Like can we not just...
00:27:20.230 --> 00:27:21.309
No, that is torture.
00:27:21.329 --> 00:27:21.529
Try, try again.
00:27:21.539 --> 00:27:22.730
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:27:23.089 --> 00:27:26.079
I mean, she's gonna die anyway, Right just put another needle in.
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:27.880
Let's just try the other arm.
00:27:28.099 --> 00:27:29.500
I've had them take it from the top of my hands.
00:27:29.500 --> 00:27:30.319
Can we stick it in there?
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:30.660
Yeah.
00:27:30.990 --> 00:27:31.509
I don't know.
00:27:31.509 --> 00:27:34.843
And I don't know if she had any reaction at all, like I don't know if it affected her at all.
00:27:34.843 --> 00:27:38.940
Well, She said,"Is my arm supposed to be stinging?" or something like that when they- Okay injected her.
00:27:40.029 --> 00:27:45.269
So she did make a comment that it felt weird, but I don't know if they ever responded to her.
00:27:45.269 --> 00:27:50.740
But she did make the comment of like- Is this-"Is it supposed to like sting and feel like this?" Is it supposed to hurt when you kill me?
00:27:52.726 --> 00:27:53.756
We do it humanely now.
00:27:53.756 --> 00:27:54.506
We don't impale.
00:27:55.665 --> 00:27:56.776
Okay, thank God.
00:27:56.986 --> 00:27:58.036
But yeah, that's crazy.
00:27:58.066 --> 00:28:06.536
And I don't understand, again, not a physician or scientist or anything, they still put the combination of drugs in her.
00:28:06.736 --> 00:28:08.276
Is that still not absorbed?
00:28:08.326 --> 00:28:16.342
Or I guess by the time it's absorbed into her body- Metabolized the potency and stuff I don't know I know, cuckoo Yeah.
00:28:16.602 --> 00:28:17.892
so I was on TikTok the other day.
00:28:17.892 --> 00:28:19.031
This is, kinda off-topic.
00:28:19.071 --> 00:28:23.332
Well, not really off-topic, but, off of our scheduled- Yeah, yeah notes or whatever.
00:28:23.711 --> 00:28:28.711
And there was a live streamer doing interviews on the street in Colorado.
00:28:29.501 --> 00:28:43.182
And, this Hispanic guy comes running up, in tears, crying, like, running and freaking out, and the live streamer was like,"What's going on?" And this big, tall Black man- Mm-hmm was walking up, and he's like,"He's gonna eat me.
00:28:43.182 --> 00:28:44.632
He's trying to, like, bite me.
00:28:44.801 --> 00:28:48.902
You can't turn me." And while this is, like, live streaming, right?
00:28:48.922 --> 00:28:53.602
And so the, the dude comes, strolling up, big old smile, just smiling away, and he's like,"I don't know.
00:28:53.602 --> 00:28:55.261
Like, he was running, so I just ran with him.
00:28:55.261 --> 00:28:57.632
We were running together." I mean, come on.
00:28:57.751 --> 00:28:58.122
Yeah.
00:28:58.172 --> 00:28:59.731
This dude was literally crying.
00:28:59.791 --> 00:29:01.882
Yeah, like he was, he was feeling- He was- Yeah like, trying to hide behind the guy.
00:29:01.902 --> 00:29:04.662
He's like,"Help me, help me," like, totally freaking out.
00:29:05.031 --> 00:29:07.711
And psychopath walks up like- they were interviewing his brother.
00:29:08.582 --> 00:29:09.682
And- The big guy's brother?
00:29:09.942 --> 00:29:13.892
Yeah, and they're both just, smiling away, and I was like, OMG.
00:29:14.241 --> 00:29:18.162
And never once said like,"I'm not- Right a vampire." Right.
00:29:18.211 --> 00:29:19.132
"I'm not-" Never denied it.
00:29:19.152 --> 00:29:19.271
No.
00:29:19.271 --> 00:29:20.372
Just talked around us.
00:29:20.382 --> 00:29:26.009
Smiling away, like happy-go-lucky,"This is all great." And so he's like, I'll leave you here.
00:29:26.009 --> 00:29:27.808
And the guy's like,"No, go to the other side of the street.
00:29:27.959 --> 00:29:30.118
Get away from me." Like,"You can't touch me." Oh, my gosh.
00:29:30.148 --> 00:29:31.189
Do you remember where they were?
00:29:31.499 --> 00:29:32.368
Somewhere in Colorado.
00:29:32.388 --> 00:29:32.759
Okay.
00:29:32.838 --> 00:29:32.979
Yeah.
00:29:32.979 --> 00:29:33.749
No, you said that, I'm sorry.
00:29:33.798 --> 00:29:35.068
But- That's insane.
00:29:35.078 --> 00:29:35.548
Yeah.
00:29:35.679 --> 00:29:40.009
What TikTok did you send me about vampires or reel or something?
00:29:40.009 --> 00:29:40.588
Didn't you send me one?
00:29:40.648 --> 00:29:41.169
I did.
00:29:41.338 --> 00:29:46.348
Crazy story that you and I were just talking about, and we had kinda sent a TikTok back and forth, and you said you saw it before.
00:29:46.368 --> 00:29:46.669
Mm-hmm.
00:29:47.368 --> 00:29:55.459
But there's this guy, his name is Ron Clark, and he's on TikTok talking about his experiences about when he went to, I think he said Transylvania.
00:29:56.378 --> 00:29:57.388
Do you wanna cut this out too?
00:29:57.659 --> 00:29:58.419
No, I'm laughing.
00:29:58.669 --> 00:29:59.618
Experiences.
00:29:59.878 --> 00:30:00.808
Oh my gosh.
00:30:01.088 --> 00:30:02.548
I need a thesaurus.
00:30:03.719 --> 00:30:05.929
Every time I, I hear that word, I think of Matt Rife.
00:30:06.689 --> 00:30:14.528
I actually went this past, week and wrote down,'cause you know I always say 100%, and I wrote down like some different phrases to use.
00:30:14.548 --> 00:30:14.739
Uh-huh.
00:30:14.749 --> 00:30:17.398
Obviously that got stuck'cause I already said it one time today.
00:30:17.808 --> 00:30:23.909
But anyway, this guy's name is Ron Clark, and he tells this amazing story, and he's in Transylvania.
00:30:24.328 --> 00:30:28.189
And what I loved about this is he's got the receipts.
00:30:28.398 --> 00:30:28.419
Yeah.
00:30:28.459 --> 00:30:33.798
He's got photos and videos of And you can tell it's him as a younger person.
00:30:34.068 --> 00:30:37.229
The whole vibe of the'90s was coming through.
00:30:37.778 --> 00:30:40.499
But go just watch him.
00:30:40.548 --> 00:30:42.229
And I love, like, he's got an accent.
00:30:42.249 --> 00:30:43.838
Like a- Oh, yeah like a Southern accent.
00:30:44.578 --> 00:30:44.919
Uh-huh.
00:30:44.919 --> 00:30:45.345
Uh-huh.
00:30:45.355 --> 00:30:56.315
I grew up up north, so like this was not my- Right so hearing him tell this story in a Southern accent and looking at his pictures of him with like his little, like, dread braids- Yeah.
00:30:56.315 --> 00:30:57.085
Uh-huh or whatever he had going on.
00:30:57.095 --> 00:30:57.365
Yeah.
00:30:57.755 --> 00:31:02.305
And like he looked like he would've been like a raver- Yeah so I'm picturing like the vibe of- Mm-hmm.
00:31:02.305 --> 00:31:04.664
Mm-hmm it was, it was pure gold.
00:31:04.674 --> 00:31:05.055
Yeah.
00:31:05.164 --> 00:31:06.454
So yeah, go find him.
00:31:06.464 --> 00:31:06.484
Mm-hmm.
00:31:06.494 --> 00:31:15.974
Watch that story because he- The highlight of it for me was the large male nun with a beard.

Yes.
00:31:16.615 --> 00:31:17.585

Yeah.
00:31:17.845 --> 00:31:20.244
If that doesn't entice you, then don't run to his page.
00:31:20.484 --> 00:31:23.305
But if it does, head on over after you finish the podcast today.
00:31:23.355 --> 00:31:23.525

Yeah.
00:31:29.154 --> 00:31:29.755
Oh, wow.

You know who wasn't a good storyteller?
00:31:31.295 --> 00:31:31.505
Me.
00:31:31.515 --> 00:31:34.234

You're great.
00:31:36.464 --> 00:31:37.025

You're my, number one or storyteller.
00:31:38.765 --> 00:31:39.865
I'm a terrible storyteller.
00:31:40.894 --> 00:31:41.575
You wanna play a game?
00:31:42.755 --> 00:31:43.295
Maybe.
00:31:44.184 --> 00:31:44.265
Maybe.
00:31:44.345 --> 00:31:50.045
You looked at me, like, with your eyes twinkling and all, like, sideways, and I'm a little nervous.
00:31:50.075 --> 00:31:50.474
What's up?
00:31:51.025 --> 00:31:52.035
Would you let them bite you?
00:31:52.974 --> 00:31:53.555
Yes.
00:31:53.565 --> 00:31:56.474
Okay, so- I mean, not yes I would let them bite me, but yes, I wanna play the game.
00:31:56.484 --> 00:31:56.795

00:32:03.545 --> 00:32:03.734
I'm sorry.
00:32:03.744 --> 00:32:04.404
Oh, those are not my cookies.
00:32:04.414 --> 00:32:05.265
Those are the dog's cookies.
00:32:05.265 --> 00:32:06.075
Oh, okay.
00:32:06.154 --> 00:32:07.085

He did.
00:32:07.884 --> 00:32:08.625
What did he say?
00:32:08.865 --> 00:32:10.555
He said it tasted like a peanut butter cookie.
00:32:10.694 --> 00:32:11.075
Okay.
00:32:11.634 --> 00:32:12.055
Good to know.

Good to know what the dogs are eating.
00:32:14.194 --> 00:32:16.535
He didn't realize at first that it was a dog cookie.
00:32:16.605 --> 00:32:17.365
I mean, same.
00:32:18.734 --> 00:32:19.815

Teeth.

All good.
00:33:07.749 --> 00:33:10.195

Your vampire-in-law.
00:33:30.719 --> 00:33:31.808
Vampire by whatever.
00:33:31.858 --> 00:33:32.778
Uh, Klaus?
00:33:33.259 --> 00:33:33.798
Hell yes.

00:33:34.999 --> 00:33:36.028
My gosh, oh.

Yes, he's the original vampire.
00:33:37.709 --> 00:33:39.078
I know, but I can't remember him.
00:33:39.348 --> 00:33:41.068
I watched that a little bit, but not a lot.
00:33:41.078 --> 00:33:42.179
Oh, I watched it, three times.
00:33:42.318 --> 00:33:42.648
Okay.
00:33:42.659 --> 00:33:43.159
The whole thing.
00:33:45.979 --> 00:33:47.939
So you're saying I need to watch it again?
00:33:47.999 --> 00:33:48.719
Uh, yeah.
00:33:48.808 --> 00:33:49.148
Okay.

Actually, he has his own show.
00:33:50.769 --> 00:33:52.118
Like, it was, like, The Originals.
00:33:52.118 --> 00:33:52.159
Really?
00:33:52.159 --> 00:33:52.578
Like a spinoff of it?
00:33:52.578 --> 00:33:52.778
Yeah.
00:33:52.778 --> 00:33:53.269
Oh, yeah.

Less yes than Stefan.
00:34:06.719 --> 00:34:07.148
Really?
00:34:07.398 --> 00:34:07.528
Mm-hmm.
00:34:07.528 --> 00:34:08.778
No, no, like you have to hear his accent.
00:34:08.798 --> 00:34:09.139
Okay.
00:34:09.148 --> 00:34:10.048
He's got the accent.
00:34:10.088 --> 00:34:11.458
Well, you know how I feel about those.
00:34:11.608 --> 00:34:11.728
Yeah.
00:34:11.958 --> 00:34:15.438
But, but less, yeah, still, okay, still take a nibble, but yeah.
00:34:15.438 --> 00:34:15.608
Oh.
00:34:15.608 --> 00:34:15.918
Yeah.
00:34:16.268 --> 00:34:19.668
No, he's like the, ultimate bad boy- Okay with an accent.
00:34:19.748 --> 00:34:20.179
Okay.
00:34:20.489 --> 00:34:23.449
But then you see like little glimpses of Some good?
00:34:23.498 --> 00:34:24.208
A little bit of good.
00:34:24.219 --> 00:34:24.248
Okay.
00:34:24.259 --> 00:34:25.579
Like, like when he wants to be.
00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:25.978
Uh-huh.
00:34:25.989 --> 00:34:26.018
Okay.
00:34:26.708 --> 00:34:29.809
You know, like I have really- Yeah a hard time with that.
00:34:32.108 --> 00:34:32.798
We know.
00:34:32.849 --> 00:34:33.068
Yeah.
00:34:33.068 --> 00:34:33.434
We know.
00:34:33.434 --> 00:34:33.615
Okay.
00:34:33.615 --> 00:34:34.139
That's okay.
00:34:34.239 --> 00:34:35.159
You wanna do- Edward.
00:34:35.548 --> 00:34:36.309
Ooh, Edward.
00:34:36.599 --> 00:34:37.199
I'm not a Edward...
00:34:37.228 --> 00:34:38.099
I wasn't an Edward fan.
00:34:38.099 --> 00:34:38.938
I was not either.
00:34:38.938 --> 00:34:39.489
Mm-mm.
00:34:39.548 --> 00:34:51.809
Okay, so if he, if he needs to drink blood so he doesn't die- I would give him some blood right, but I'm not gonna be the first to line up and I think I would like just do a little like cut and- Uh-huh and put it in a shot glass for him.
00:34:52.469 --> 00:34:53.329
And let him take it that way.
00:34:54.878 --> 00:34:55.639
I don't think.
00:34:56.398 --> 00:34:58.969
Uh, yeah, I, I- I don't want like teeth on me.
00:34:59.028 --> 00:34:59.469
No.
00:34:59.739 --> 00:35:00.199
No.
00:35:00.278 --> 00:35:00.568
No.
00:35:00.619 --> 00:35:01.998
But I would let Emmett.
00:35:02.539 --> 00:35:03.048
Yes.
00:35:05.338 --> 00:35:07.248
Or Jasper, the next two.
00:35:08.518 --> 00:35:11.809
Yes, but not Edward.
00:35:12.048 --> 00:35:12.608
No.
00:35:12.679 --> 00:35:13.248
A hard pass.
00:35:13.509 --> 00:35:13.889
No.
00:35:14.139 --> 00:35:15.469
Felt they could have cast him better.
00:35:15.509 --> 00:35:18.059
We're gonna get some hate off of that, so people- I, you know what?
00:35:18.128 --> 00:35:19.458
Keep your opinions to you.
00:35:19.489 --> 00:35:20.398
I was- This is our podcast.
00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:23.989

So.
00:35:24.978 --> 00:35:25.329

00:35:25.478 --> 00:35:26.088
Yes.
00:35:26.668 --> 00:35:30.909
They need to redo like the rest of those movies but have her choose Jacob.
00:35:30.969 --> 00:35:31.429
Yeah.
00:35:31.648 --> 00:35:33.918
And then- Yeah, mm-hmm.
00:35:34.489 --> 00:35:35.338
That'll never happen.
00:35:35.489 --> 00:35:35.798
No.
00:35:37.208 --> 00:35:42.509
So I don't remember which character is which from, um, Interview with a Vampire.
00:35:42.518 --> 00:35:43.188
I don't either.
00:35:43.188 --> 00:35:45.039
But I was never a big Brad Pitt fan.
00:35:45.148 --> 00:35:46.278
I was a Brad Pitt fan.
00:35:46.349 --> 00:35:47.018
I was never.
00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:48.418
Not a Tom Cruise fan.
00:35:48.588 --> 00:35:49.079
Me either.
00:35:49.719 --> 00:35:50.568
Not a Tom Cruise fan.
00:35:50.768 --> 00:35:53.909
Es- but yeah, Brad Pitt, okay, if you insist.
00:35:54.559 --> 00:35:58.418
I mean- Yeah if I had to choose between the two, I choose Brad Pitt.
00:35:58.449 --> 00:35:59.259
Do what you need to do.
00:35:59.289 --> 00:35:59.668
Yeah.
00:35:59.938 --> 00:36:00.259
Yeah.
00:36:00.378 --> 00:36:01.099
Do what you need to do.
00:36:01.369 --> 00:36:02.639
But I don't wanna be bound to you for life.
00:36:02.699 --> 00:36:02.929
No.
00:36:02.929 --> 00:36:03.849
No.
00:36:03.849 --> 00:36:07.259
And I don't want you to like invade my memories or be able to control me or anything like that.
00:36:07.358 --> 00:36:07.759
Mm-mm.
00:36:07.798 --> 00:36:08.119
Right.
00:36:08.219 --> 00:36:09.458
I pass on- Yeah on all that.
00:36:09.509 --> 00:36:09.949
Yeah.
00:36:10.059 --> 00:36:11.958
But I mean, if you, if I had to choose.
00:36:12.318 --> 00:36:12.768
Right.
00:36:13.568 --> 00:36:13.869
Yeah.
00:36:15.309 --> 00:36:15.829
Whatever.
00:36:17.407 --> 00:36:18.186
You wanna do the next one?
00:36:18.507 --> 00:36:21.146
Um, Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
00:36:21.177 --> 00:36:21.686
Probably.
00:36:22.126 --> 00:36:22.567
Yeah.
00:36:23.126 --> 00:36:23.536
Yeah.
00:36:24.137 --> 00:36:24.876
I wouldn't say no.
00:36:25.047 --> 00:36:25.436
No.
00:36:25.737 --> 00:36:28.206
So okay, just- Whatever.
00:36:31.813 --> 00:36:32.652
What about Angel?
00:36:33.612 --> 00:36:34.672
Hell yes yes.
00:36:35.963 --> 00:36:37.402
Out of all of these, yes.
00:36:37.793 --> 00:36:38.253
Yeah.
00:36:38.422 --> 00:36:38.862
Yeah.
00:36:40.043 --> 00:36:40.952
That's a hard yes.
00:36:41.003 --> 00:36:41.452
Yep.
00:36:41.733 --> 00:36:42.253
Hard yes.
00:36:43.112 --> 00:36:44.733
Okay, let's, let's just keep moving..
00:36:45.862 --> 00:36:47.112
I don't remember Lost Boys.
00:36:47.143 --> 00:36:47.992
I think that's the one...
00:36:48.003 --> 00:36:49.543
Was that the one with Kiefer Sutherland?
00:36:49.983 --> 00:36:50.532
Oh, maybe.
00:36:50.652 --> 00:36:51.182
That's a no.
00:36:51.282 --> 00:36:51.713
Yeah, no.
00:36:51.713 --> 00:36:52.373
That's a hard no.
00:36:53.112 --> 00:36:58.952
So yeah, apparently we both have a thing for vampires, especially the hotter and badder and beefier maybe?
00:36:58.992 --> 00:36:59.322
Yeah.
00:37:02.873 --> 00:37:03.512
We have a type.
00:37:05.072 --> 00:37:05.472
Yep.
00:37:07.362 --> 00:37:08.242
That was pretty funny.
00:37:08.682 --> 00:37:09.472
That was pretty funny.
00:37:10.123 --> 00:37:10.612
Yeah.
00:37:10.722 --> 00:37:31.853
Well, I did find a Am I the A-Hole- Oh, yay it just referenced the word vampire, so it kind of went with our theme, but it's- Okay not super vampire,"am I the a-hole for being a vampire?""Okay, obviously not really a vampire, but my boyfriend works nights and I'm on disability, so I mostly..." If she's a vampire, she should be disabled?
00:37:32.333 --> 00:37:33.762
Well, it's just she obviously- Okay.
00:37:33.793 --> 00:37:34.773
Okay really- Not really.
00:37:34.813 --> 00:37:38.943
So she's a fake vam- Okay,"I'm a fake vampire." No, I'm just kidding.
00:37:39.233 --> 00:37:46.503
Okay,"So obviously not really a vampire, but my boyfriend works nights and I'm on disability, so I mostly keep to his schedule unless I'm at a doctor's appointment.
00:37:46.842 --> 00:37:56.813
We have roommates that work during normal hours, but on the weekends or weekdays when they're home, they continue on being their normal selves at normal people volumes, and that's perfectly fine." Whatever.
00:37:57.083 --> 00:37:58.523
Doesn't sound like it's perfectly fine.
00:37:58.842 --> 00:37:59.123
No.
00:37:59.932 --> 00:38:02.393
"Last night while making dinner, I decided to put on a record.
00:38:02.733 --> 00:38:08.943
Now, the record player is in the living room and I was in the kitchen, so the volume would've been loud enough to be noticeable in the rooms with sleeping people.
00:38:09.322 --> 00:38:16.512
I know this as a fact because my boyfriend, who was working from home, came out and scolded me for playing it so loud while other people in the household are sleeping.
00:38:17.492 --> 00:38:25.092
His argument is that because we have the odd schedule, we should be mindful even though the other roomies aren't mindful of our odd schedule.
00:38:25.413 --> 00:38:31.452
I say everyone should be able to live their lives as they normally would, no matter what time of day or night it happens to be.
00:38:31.793 --> 00:38:36.663
I've talked to the other roommates before about doing loudish things at night when they looked at me like they had no...
00:38:37.213 --> 00:38:41.393
And they looked at me like they had no clue what I was talking about, so I'm pretty sure they're heavy sleepers.
00:38:41.902 --> 00:38:47.552
I guess I could just ask them, but in the court of public opinion, which way do you rule?
00:38:47.592 --> 00:38:48.972
Am I the a-hole?" Yeah.
00:38:49.704 --> 00:38:56.465
I think if she's already spoke to them about it and they didn't have any issue with it, then no I actually, I said yeah and I meant no.
00:39:01.130 --> 00:39:01.670
You know what?
00:39:01.690 --> 00:39:03.141
I used to have that problem when I would...
00:39:03.221 --> 00:39:04.601
Okay, God, this is terrible.
00:39:04.860 --> 00:39:14.920
When I would umpire- Yeah and I'd, like, say something, I'm like, in my head I'm like,"Oh, crap, I meant the other thing," and then, like, the call was wrong, and people are like,"Boo!" And I'm like,"Oh, crap." Same thing, instant reaction, and I shouldn't have meant...
00:39:15.831 --> 00:39:17.130
I don't think she's an a-hole.
00:39:17.231 --> 00:39:17.271
No.
00:39:17.280 --> 00:39:18.101
It's your house.
00:39:18.811 --> 00:39:19.951
They're doing the same thing.
00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:25.831
Y- you both need to be doing either both quiet- Sure when either are asleep or both living your lives when the other's- Right asleep.
00:39:25.831 --> 00:39:27.081
So I don't think you are.
00:39:27.141 --> 00:39:36.601
And if they went into this house, whatever, co-op- Mm-hmm, yeah knowing that there's gonna be different schedules- Right I would assume that there would have been some kind of conversation about it.
00:39:36.670 --> 00:39:36.971
Mm-hmm.
00:39:37.061 --> 00:39:42.411
Which, and then again, it sounds like she already spoke to everybody about the problem- Right and they were like,"What are you talking about?
00:39:42.411 --> 00:39:44.001
We're cool." Yeah, not a big deal.
00:39:44.050 --> 00:39:46.911
And my other thing is, okay, so just move the record player.
00:39:46.971 --> 00:39:47.371
Yeah.
00:39:47.601 --> 00:39:51.050
If you, if it's an issue for everybody, but- Who uses records anymore?
00:39:51.061 --> 00:39:54.340
D- uh, was, was this from like 1981?
00:39:54.371 --> 00:39:55.661
What did we do?
00:39:57.021 --> 00:39:57.951
Eight years ago, but still.
00:39:58.771 --> 00:39:59.530
Still.
00:39:59.570 --> 00:40:00.360
But still.
00:40:00.360 --> 00:40:01.501
Like- But get your iPod.
00:40:01.510 --> 00:40:03.530
That was DVD, or, uh, CDs.
00:40:03.780 --> 00:40:06.121
No, were we still, like, on MP3s then?
00:40:06.931 --> 00:40:07.630
Eight years ago?
00:40:07.831 --> 00:40:12.447
Yeah,'cause- Would've been, like, 20- 2018 2018.
00:40:12.577 --> 00:40:13.677
Why was that so hard?
00:40:13.728 --> 00:40:14.228
I don't know.
00:40:14.398 --> 00:40:15.137
2018.
00:40:15.378 --> 00:40:15.547
Yeah.
00:40:15.577 --> 00:40:15.918
Yeah.
00:40:15.958 --> 00:40:17.347
We had phones that played music.
00:40:17.367 --> 00:40:17.788
Yeah.
00:40:19.088 --> 00:40:22.668
And now the sound of a record player is pretty cool, unlike alt music.
00:40:23.447 --> 00:40:24.347
I will give her that.
00:40:24.898 --> 00:40:27.208
But at the same time But who plays records?
00:40:27.588 --> 00:40:29.838
The average person- Right yeah.
00:40:30.367 --> 00:40:30.677
Okay.
00:40:30.797 --> 00:40:32.257
Well- So no, you're not.
00:40:32.268 --> 00:40:32.677
No.
00:40:32.708 --> 00:40:35.407
But figure out your living situation, and I hope you did by now.
00:40:36.554 --> 00:40:39.083
But why does it matter that she's on disability?
00:40:39.543 --> 00:40:39.684
Okay.
00:40:40.034 --> 00:40:44.693
'Cause she's at home all night- I guess awake and sleeps during the day.
00:40:44.713 --> 00:40:48.414
I think that's what she's getting at, like she's still kept the same schedule as her boyfriend even though she's not working.
00:40:48.503 --> 00:40:48.864
Okay.
00:40:49.297 --> 00:40:49.617
Valid.
00:40:49.737 --> 00:40:50.108
Thanks.
00:40:50.717 --> 00:40:56.358
We did not schedule, a book or whatever, so we decided to do a documentary, and we are not going to recommend this documentary.
00:40:56.378 --> 00:40:57.608
No, not at all.
00:40:57.617 --> 00:41:08.507
Was the, uh, next year when we ha- or the next, like, when we hit 200 episodes and we- Yeah do, like, the little- The worst awards, this is gonna be the worst documentary- Worst that we ever- It was terrible.
00:41:08.527 --> 00:41:13.818
I'm glad you didn't like it either, because I was feeling a little No, I hated it.
00:41:13.967 --> 00:41:14.137
Yeah.
00:41:14.137 --> 00:41:17.148
It wasn't that you didn't like it, you di- I hated it too.
00:41:17.157 --> 00:41:18.998
I can't get that time of my life back.
00:41:20.077 --> 00:41:21.338
And it was relatively short.
00:41:21.427 --> 00:41:23.217
Yeah, it was like a, what, hour and a half maybe?
00:41:23.447 --> 00:41:24.648
I don't even know if it was that long.
00:41:24.697 --> 00:41:29.097
No, it was- But I had, it took- It felt like- six hours to watch it- Yeah, it felt like-'cause I couldn't understand a word they said.
00:41:29.418 --> 00:41:31.717
So we did The Curse of the Highgate Vampire.
00:41:31.717 --> 00:41:32.688
It was on HBO Max.
00:41:32.708 --> 00:41:35.121
And I'm also pissed off'cause I didn't have HBO Max.
00:41:35.121 --> 00:41:35.688
I thought it was Hulu.
00:41:36.628 --> 00:41:38.128
Well, not on regular Hulu.
00:41:38.338 --> 00:41:38.507
Oh.
00:41:38.518 --> 00:41:39.367
You had to upgrade it.
00:41:39.378 --> 00:41:39.387
Oh.
00:41:39.398 --> 00:41:41.947
So I had to pay$7 for this piece of shit.
00:41:42.208 --> 00:41:42.858
Oh, mm-hmm.
00:41:42.907 --> 00:41:44.498
It's okay, I'm gonna use it to watch something else.
00:41:44.597 --> 00:41:44.797
Yeah.
00:41:45.387 --> 00:41:49.827
And you know, I, nerd, again, you're not a nerd, but you do We love documentaries.
00:41:49.838 --> 00:41:50.088
Yeah.
00:41:50.697 --> 00:41:51.867
And I love accents.
00:41:52.458 --> 00:41:54.597
This wasn't it- No at all.
00:41:54.628 --> 00:41:59.108
I could not understand, and I tried to put the subtitles on- Mm-hmm and it wouldn't, they wouldn't go on.
00:41:59.518 --> 00:42:01.947
So it was just, it was just quite a bit of a mess.
00:42:02.887 --> 00:42:03.657
Don't watch it.
00:42:03.668 --> 00:42:04.458
Don't watch it.
00:42:04.467 --> 00:42:05.068
Waste your time.
00:42:05.117 --> 00:42:06.458
It was, it starts really creepy.
00:42:06.458 --> 00:42:07.797
It gave me a lot of Blair Witch vibes.
00:42:07.858 --> 00:42:08.108
Ugh.
00:42:08.228 --> 00:42:11.297
Just the way it was like Because it's personal recording stuff.
00:42:11.938 --> 00:42:14.108
Do we even wanna talk about it or just tell people not to watch it?
00:42:14.137 --> 00:42:18.128
Well, I mean, we can do this or do a little recap of it, but, like- hard pass.
00:42:18.307 --> 00:42:19.217
Don't do it.
00:42:19.978 --> 00:42:20.907
It was terrible.
00:42:20.918 --> 00:42:27.108
So Highgate Cemetery is in North London, and it's all based there, and it's basically people seeing things.
00:42:27.447 --> 00:42:34.347
Let's just do a really high version, but basically, think people think they're seeing things, feeling things, they're hearing things in the cemetery.
00:42:34.347 --> 00:42:37.478
So there's this one dude who, tries to do a lot of research on it.
00:42:37.478 --> 00:42:41.768
His name was David something, I think, and he was, like, the lead research guy.
00:42:42.097 --> 00:42:42.197
Ugh.
00:42:42.398 --> 00:42:42.987
Was that his name?
00:42:43.007 --> 00:42:43.478
I don't know.
00:42:43.507 --> 00:42:44.838
I- try to block it out.
00:42:47.197 --> 00:42:47.788
It doesn't matter.
00:42:47.858 --> 00:42:49.318
So what, say his name was David.
00:42:49.327 --> 00:42:55.378
He did a lot of research on the whole thing, and then he dies, and then people are back in there, and they're like,"Who am I?
00:42:55.547 --> 00:42:56.108
Who's here?
00:42:56.108 --> 00:42:59.047
Who am I talking to?" And he's like, they think they hear his name being said.
00:42:59.057 --> 00:42:59.297
Yeah.
00:42:59.538 --> 00:43:08.708
So it just turns into a whole spiral of people, trying to, see what's going on in the graveyard and be there when the creepy things happen, and then we see more people.
00:43:08.907 --> 00:43:11.807
The one thing that I did think was funny, I thought two things were funny.
00:43:11.818 --> 00:43:16.137
Number one, they show somebody, in a library and they're looking at microfilm.
00:43:16.208 --> 00:43:16.327
Oh.
00:43:16.327 --> 00:43:29.938
And I was like,"That'll bring back some memories." And the other thing was, is there was one situation where people were, like, storming the cemetery, and they kept referencing that people were going over the gates- Mm or over the, fence.
00:43:30.177 --> 00:43:31.157
Like, was there not a gate?
00:43:31.668 --> 00:43:31.918
Yeah.
00:43:32.018 --> 00:43:32.737
Nobody let people...
00:43:33.007 --> 00:43:35.137
They're like, pitchforks- Yeah and stuff, just, climbing and getting in there.
00:43:35.137 --> 00:43:36.168
So during that, right?
00:43:36.197 --> 00:43:39.208
And I'm picturing, the stake gates, you know, like with the- Yes.
00:43:39.288 --> 00:43:39.748
Yeah.
00:43:39.797 --> 00:43:40.068
Yeah.
00:43:40.068 --> 00:43:42.288
Or like stake fences, like- Uh, like with the pointy top.
00:43:42.507 --> 00:43:42.847
Yeah.
00:43:43.208 --> 00:43:43.481
Yeah, yeah.
00:43:43.481 --> 00:43:44.588
Like, the Impaler is back.
00:43:44.768 --> 00:43:45.367
Right.
00:43:45.737 --> 00:43:48.068
I thought the same thing, and I didn't even research Vlad.
00:43:48.128 --> 00:43:48.438
Yeah.
00:43:48.498 --> 00:43:50.887
So yeah, it was just not great.
00:43:50.898 --> 00:43:52.918
Just a lot of hibbity hobbla about nothing.
00:43:53.447 --> 00:43:55.038
I love that you just said that.
00:43:57.248 --> 00:43:59.327
Ah, so yeah, don't watch it.
00:43:59.327 --> 00:44:00.018
Don't watch it.
00:44:00.018 --> 00:44:00.498
Mm-mm.
00:44:00.588 --> 00:44:01.367
It was terrible.
00:44:01.378 --> 00:44:12.038
But there is a new documentary on YouTube that, had a lot of attention on social media, and I didn't find it until after we had decided to do this one.
00:44:12.318 --> 00:44:12.648
Okay.
00:44:12.697 --> 00:44:16.188
But I haven't watched it yet, so I can't- Okay say yes or no, but it is called...
00:44:16.987 --> 00:44:21.746
Vampires of Lafayette, which sounds like it would be way better because of it's Louisiana.
00:44:21.936 --> 00:44:22.327
Yeah.
00:44:22.416 --> 00:44:25.887
And Lafayette is where True Blood took place.
00:44:25.896 --> 00:44:27.126
Oh, okay.
00:44:27.126 --> 00:44:29.117
Like it was like around- Uh, yeah that area.
00:44:29.496 --> 00:44:31.246
Did you read the True Blood, like those books?
00:44:31.606 --> 00:44:32.146
No.
00:44:32.217 --> 00:44:33.047
Oh, those were really good books.
00:44:33.077 --> 00:44:33.697
Are they good books?
00:44:33.706 --> 00:44:33.947
Yeah.
00:44:33.947 --> 00:44:34.106
Okay.
00:44:34.146 --> 00:44:35.606
Uh, the Charlaine Harris books.
00:44:35.956 --> 00:44:38.947
Um, and then they made that into True Blood- Yeah the series.
00:44:38.976 --> 00:44:39.327
Yeah.
00:44:39.567 --> 00:44:40.827
Which was really good too.
00:44:40.896 --> 00:44:41.836
I didn't watch that.
00:44:41.887 --> 00:44:43.106
I don't know- I think it's on HBO.
00:44:43.496 --> 00:44:47.047
Well, now that I have HBO Max- Yeah maybe I can get my$7 worth.
00:44:47.106 --> 00:44:49.086
I watched that like probably two or three times too.
00:44:49.097 --> 00:44:49.487
Okay.
00:44:49.507 --> 00:44:52.286
Like the entire thing over when, like over the years.
00:44:52.327 --> 00:44:55.606
Sometimes I get mad when like a book is ending, and I just want it...
00:44:55.677 --> 00:44:58.916
And then you try to read it again, and it's great, but it's not like, same thing with a series.
00:44:58.916 --> 00:44:59.166
Yeah.
00:44:59.166 --> 00:45:00.556
Like you don't want it to end.
00:45:00.556 --> 00:45:00.742
Yeah.
00:45:00.742 --> 00:45:01.567
You don't want it to...
00:45:02.246 --> 00:45:05.927
There's a lot of, um, nudity- Okay in the show.
00:45:06.186 --> 00:45:06.376
Okay.
00:45:06.427 --> 00:45:09.347
So just don't watch- There was a lot of nudity in the High Gate vampire thing.
00:45:09.356 --> 00:45:09.376
Yeah.
00:45:09.387 --> 00:45:11.777
They were naked pentagram people.
00:45:11.806 --> 00:45:12.817
Yeah, yeah.
00:45:13.086 --> 00:45:17.556
But- yeah, there's lots of sex and stuff, so just- Okay.
00:45:17.586 --> 00:45:21.347
If Jackson's around you- like wanna have to have that awkward moment.
00:45:21.686 --> 00:45:22.086
Yeah.
00:45:23.036 --> 00:45:24.666
Go get me something to drink, Jackson.
00:45:25.077 --> 00:45:25.447
I'm just kidding.
00:45:26.317 --> 00:45:28.657
I, God, the first, what movie were we watching?
00:45:28.657 --> 00:45:29.657
It was a scary movie.
00:45:30.246 --> 00:45:33.036
'Cause you know scary movies, like back in like the'80s,'90s, always had to show boobs.
00:45:33.117 --> 00:45:33.786
Oh, yeah.
00:45:33.867 --> 00:45:40.836
And Dylan, all of October we would watch scary movies- Mm-hmm when he was younger, like teenager, 12, 13, whatever.
00:45:41.086 --> 00:45:41.226
Mm-hmm.
00:45:41.246 --> 00:45:45.507
And we were watching, final destination- Final Destination but it was like two or three.
00:45:45.646 --> 00:45:45.806
Yeah.
00:45:45.806 --> 00:45:59.327
Like it was like the second or third one, and boobs just came out, and I was like,"Cover your eyes," and he's like,"Mom." And I was like,"Oh God, this is, this is awful." So- That's terrible how, so Dylan is, gosh, he's almost 19, isn't he?
00:45:59.327 --> 00:46:00.476
Yeah, him being 19 next month.
00:46:01.197 --> 00:46:09.007
So when he was like 15, 16, did you kind of play it the same way when, when you're watching something and there's nudity?
00:46:09.936 --> 00:46:10.967
Uh, I, I still do.
00:46:12.356 --> 00:46:15.186
Well, I wasn't sure with him being a, a legit adult.
00:46:15.277 --> 00:46:17.847
I am not grown up enough to be in these situations.
00:46:17.856 --> 00:46:20.677
So Brian's not grown up enough either, so here's what we do.
00:46:21.396 --> 00:46:27.018
We watch a movie- And again, just random boobs jiggling all over the screen.
00:46:27.568 --> 00:46:37.777
Jackson might not even notice,'cause you know, always scrolling his phone and stuff, and Brian'll be like,"Well, hello." Or, you know, m- And I'm like,"Babe." Draws attention to the fact.
00:46:38.217 --> 00:46:41.838
Or he'll say, you know, just make comments like,"I, okay," you know what I'm saying.
00:46:41.847 --> 00:46:44.318
And I'm just like,"We coulda just let that play out." Yeah.
00:46:44.318 --> 00:46:44.708
Yeah.
00:46:44.757 --> 00:46:46.128
And I do the opposite.
00:46:46.177 --> 00:46:47.577
I try to distract Jackson.
00:46:47.588 --> 00:46:47.608
Yeah.
00:46:47.617 --> 00:46:53.248
So if he's of the least bit paying attention and I'm like okay, I'm getting a vibe that something's getting ready to happen.
00:46:53.248 --> 00:47:01.068
I'm like,"So Jackson, tell me about this algebra grade," or whatever, to get his eyes on me, and then I have to like one eye it on the TV.
00:47:01.577 --> 00:47:02.007
Oh my God.
00:47:02.068 --> 00:47:02.318
I know.
00:47:02.318 --> 00:47:09.807
I like throwin' blankets, I always like put blankets over, I'd be interested to know what other people do.
00:47:10.157 --> 00:47:11.168
Yeah, tell us what y'all do.
00:47:11.168 --> 00:47:19.358
If y'all are still here and you're still listening to this randomness, let us know if you like try to distract your teenage boys, while they're watching movies- They're- when there's some boobs jiggling on the screen.
00:47:20.117 --> 00:47:21.777
I'm not grown up enough to be a parent.
00:47:21.788 --> 00:47:23.197
Like, who let me be a parent?
00:47:25.175 --> 00:47:30.764
And then sometimes Brian'll start making these comments, I'm sorry, I'm just telling on Brian today, it's funny, it's, it's okay.
00:47:31.065 --> 00:47:40.264
And he'll be like, you know, and I think it, like a comedian said something like,"People say, you know, you've seen one boob, you've seen them all," and nope, I wanna see them all.
00:47:40.344 --> 00:47:41.744
I don't care what they look like.
00:47:41.764 --> 00:47:42.264
I don't care.
00:47:42.905 --> 00:47:45.025
And sometimes he'll reference that a little bit.
00:47:45.545 --> 00:47:47.695
Like, yeah, who let Brian be a parent?
00:47:50.525 --> 00:47:51.664
Brian, we're in the same boat.
00:47:51.675 --> 00:47:52.065
Yeah.
00:47:52.065 --> 00:47:52.664
So.
00:47:52.664 --> 00:47:53.224
Yeah.
00:47:53.655 --> 00:47:54.215
That's okay.
00:47:55.835 --> 00:47:57.574
Well, I think that's all we have.
00:47:57.755 --> 00:47:58.474
I think we need to stop.
00:47:58.485 --> 00:47:58.804
Yeah.
00:47:58.804 --> 00:48:02.206
This is a little lame, y'all.
00:48:02.206 --> 00:48:02.775
Yeah.
00:48:02.775 --> 00:48:09.244
See, because we've done documentaries and we haven't been able to like really catch up on stuff, and so here we are, and you just got diarrhea of the mouth, everybody.
