WEBVTT
00:01.694 --> 00:03.777
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you love badass women of history?
00:04.177 --> 00:10.685
[SPEAKER_00]: Then you need to meet Clondite Kate, the queen of the Yukon, and her unexpected connection to Tacoma's pantages theater.
00:10.945 --> 00:21.198
[SPEAKER_00]: During Cheyenne Jodi, a rainy day rabbit holes for a special live podcast event, Wednesday, September 16th at 7 p.m. at the beautiful Mcminiman's Elx Temple in Tacoma, Washington.
00:21.558 --> 00:28.801
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a night of storytelling, local history, and a few truly questionable life choices that somehow all lead right back to Tacoma.
00:29.001 --> 00:33.803
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll also be doing a meet and greet from 6 to 630 pm, so come say hi before the show.
00:34.183 --> 00:39.105
[SPEAKER_00]: Get your tickets at rainydayrabbleholes.com, and come find out why all roads lead to Tacoma.
00:41.988 --> 00:43.069
[SPEAKER_01]: History is messy.
00:43.289 --> 00:43.629
[SPEAKER_00]: Weird.
00:43.909 --> 00:44.269
[SPEAKER_00]: Wild.
00:44.429 --> 00:45.250
[SPEAKER_00]: Anything but boring.
00:45.510 --> 00:47.111
[SPEAKER_00]: We are rainy day rabbit fools.
00:47.491 --> 00:51.354
[SPEAKER_00]: Exploring the unhinged side of history, politics and culture.
00:51.534 --> 00:53.275
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's fall down the rabbit hole.
00:56.577 --> 01:07.541
[SPEAKER_00]: Look, I don't care how old you are, you have to admit it, farts are funny, a basic human function, we all do it, and for some reason it's hilarious, vaporized turds.
01:08.822 --> 01:10.963
[SPEAKER_00]: That car actually sounded like farting, didn't it?
01:10.983 --> 01:13.984
[SPEAKER_00]: I did, kind of like the phrase, you don't feature it, yeah.
01:14.904 --> 01:24.068
[SPEAKER_00]: The researchers have even discovered that the oldest example of recorded humor is a 3900-year-old Sumerian proverb about flatulant brides.
01:24.188 --> 01:24.588
[SPEAKER_00]: Really?
01:25.048 --> 01:26.149
[SPEAKER_00]: The oldest job brides.
01:26.709 --> 01:27.009
[SPEAKER_00]: The brides.
01:27.029 --> 01:27.629
[SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.
01:27.649 --> 01:31.031
[SPEAKER_00]: There's something about flatulant brides sitting in your lap or something.
01:31.051 --> 01:31.551
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
01:31.611 --> 01:33.052
[SPEAKER_00]: It was funny.
01:33.072 --> 01:34.732
[SPEAKER_00]: But maybe it was 3900 years ago in Sumerian.
01:36.673 --> 01:43.438
[SPEAKER_00]: And, giving that passing gas is a totally natural function of our gastrointestinal system, you know that science hippies have studied it.
01:44.219 --> 01:44.879
[SPEAKER_00]: Science hippies?
01:45.180 --> 01:45.600
[SPEAKER_00]: Science hippies?
01:46.381 --> 01:47.261
[SPEAKER_00]: What's made of?
01:47.701 --> 01:48.922
[SPEAKER_00]: What function does it serve?
01:49.263 --> 01:52.365
[SPEAKER_00]: And most importantly, how often do we all do it?
01:53.225 --> 01:59.730
[SPEAKER_00]: To answer this last question, researchers at the University of Maryland have developed an ingenious contraption.
02:00.411 --> 02:01.652
[SPEAKER_00]: Ingenious contraption?
02:01.832 --> 02:02.032
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
02:04.257 --> 02:04.517
[SPEAKER_00]: Jodi?
02:04.858 --> 02:05.038
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
02:05.979 --> 02:07.401
[SPEAKER_00]: How often do you think you two in a day?
02:08.443 --> 02:11.026
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh gosh, I think it's something like 40, five times or something.
02:11.086 --> 02:12.208
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, average.
02:12.969 --> 02:16.033
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'm here to tell you, it's probably more than you think.
02:16.353 --> 02:16.593
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
02:17.154 --> 02:18.816
[SPEAKER_00]: But you'd probably probably are more correct.
02:19.417 --> 02:19.577
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
02:19.677 --> 02:22.898
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, then they average person probably thinks they do a lot less than that.
02:22.918 --> 02:24.599
[SPEAKER_01]: My kids when they were a little had a book about farts.
02:24.779 --> 02:31.421
[SPEAKER_01]: So I kind of got some details like vaporized turns and like it's something like 40 to 50 times a day like you don't even know.
02:31.441 --> 02:31.681
[SPEAKER_01]: Right?
02:32.441 --> 02:37.863
[SPEAKER_00]: So today we have once again turned to our favorite source for absolutely unhinged information vice.com.
02:38.283 --> 02:40.263
[SPEAKER_00]: This article is from February 11th, 2026.
02:40.383 --> 02:43.104
[SPEAKER_00]: It was written by Ashley Fike.
02:43.264 --> 02:43.564
[SPEAKER_00]: Was that a
02:48.726 --> 02:49.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Thong.
02:49.827 --> 02:50.547
[SPEAKER_00]: That works too.
02:51.167 --> 02:52.047
[SPEAKER_01]: There was probably some thong.
02:52.067 --> 02:54.689
[SPEAKER_00]: There was definitely thongs with that for a while anyway.
02:54.909 --> 03:02.232
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so this is called scientists gave people smart underwear and found we fart way more than we admit smart underwear.
03:02.272 --> 03:10.355
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's like it's like it reminds me of when you drive over those little things on the road when they're trying to count how many times cars go over it and how are you got underwear.
03:10.415 --> 03:10.636
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
03:10.896 --> 03:11.636
[SPEAKER_01]: A little monitor.
03:11.936 --> 03:12.897
[SPEAKER_00]: He took count your twins.
03:14.197 --> 03:17.299
[SPEAKER_00]: 14 Farts a day always sounded suspiciously polite.
03:17.999 --> 03:23.382
[SPEAKER_00]: Clearly, that number was invented by someone who's never shared a studio apartment or taken a long-haul flight in a economy.
03:23.722 --> 03:30.045
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, researchers at University of Maryland have proof that tells us the real truth in the form of smart underwear.
03:30.646 --> 03:32.647
[SPEAKER_00]: The idea is simple and a little gross.
03:33.647 --> 03:34.407
[SPEAKER_01]: How smart is it?
03:34.427 --> 03:40.149
[SPEAKER_01]: What if I accidentally scooted across the chair and it made a bump sign sound with it?
03:40.189 --> 03:41.149
[SPEAKER_01]: No, it's not the sound.
03:42.309 --> 03:43.349
[SPEAKER_01]: So what it was a vibration?
03:43.589 --> 03:44.390
[SPEAKER_00]: Nope, it's not that either.
03:44.790 --> 03:47.350
[SPEAKER_00]: Clip a small device onto your underwear.
03:47.910 --> 03:54.792
[SPEAKER_00]: Go about your day and let it track intestinal gas production on real time by measuring hydrogen in flat ice.
03:55.192 --> 03:55.792
[SPEAKER_00]: Nice, okay.
03:56.072 --> 03:57.173
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's legit.
03:57.213 --> 04:01.974
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because you have a little squeaker that comes out that just a little, I'm guessing that multiple times a day,
04:03.114 --> 04:03.394
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:04.315 --> 04:04.816
[SPEAKER_01]: That is happening.
04:04.836 --> 04:05.096
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
04:05.156 --> 04:09.960
[SPEAKER_00]: It just, your body is doing what it's going to do, which is just meant a little, a little gas.
04:10.460 --> 04:21.630
[SPEAKER_00]: So the catch is that it can't collect data while you're on the toilet, which seems like we're not getting the full picture of body honesty here, but hey, they had to draw the line of privacy somewhere, because you do do a lot of suits on your toilet.
04:21.970 --> 04:23.251
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people save it up for the toilet.
04:23.812 --> 04:23.992
[SPEAKER_01]: Sure.
04:24.312 --> 04:31.535
[SPEAKER_00]: For years, the accepted average hovered around 14 daily suits, based largely on self-reporting and imperfect testing.
04:31.755 --> 04:32.115
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:32.735 --> 04:36.597
[SPEAKER_00]: With the new device, researchers found the average was closer to 32 farts a day.
04:36.937 --> 04:38.217
[SPEAKER_01]: So you're all kind of there.
04:38.317 --> 04:38.537
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:38.917 --> 04:42.859
[SPEAKER_00]: According to reporting on the project and the published research, people varied a lot.
04:43.319 --> 04:45.840
[SPEAKER_00]: Some participants clocked only four farts a day.
04:45.860 --> 04:47.040
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you imagine what were they doing?
04:47.120 --> 04:48.441
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and you were just doing one round.
04:48.521 --> 04:49.001
[SPEAKER_00]: Tight.
04:49.641 --> 04:49.881
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:50.202 --> 04:51.162
[SPEAKER_00]: What was their mood like?
04:51.582 --> 04:54.783
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like the more you release your gas the more relaxed you are.
04:54.823 --> 04:56.824
[SPEAKER_01]: Do they not eat vegetables at all?
04:57.024 --> 04:57.724
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, right?
04:58.284 --> 05:02.085
[SPEAKER_00]: Others hit 59, which deserves its own wellness badge, or maybe a warning label.
05:02.526 --> 05:04.326
[SPEAKER_00]: Because they were doing beans and veggies.
05:04.526 --> 05:06.367
[SPEAKER_00]: That's me after my vegetarian weeks.
05:07.447 --> 05:10.388
[SPEAKER_00]: When, or why was the old number so low?
05:10.888 --> 05:16.690
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, because humans are bad at monitoring themselves, especially when the subject is something we've been trained to pretend never happens.
05:17.290 --> 05:18.070
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people forget.
05:18.570 --> 05:19.550
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people round down.
05:19.930 --> 05:24.892
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people only count the loud obvious ones and ignore the stealthy little leeks that still count.
05:25.192 --> 05:26.432
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
05:26.452 --> 05:26.952
[SPEAKER_00]: A little...
05:32.148 --> 05:56.549
[SPEAKER_00]: in a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little
05:56.669 --> 06:03.412
[SPEAKER_00]: Brantley Hall, an assistant professor at UMD, said the bigger issue is that medicine still doesn't have a clear baseline for normal gas production.
06:03.953 --> 06:06.674
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't actually know what normal flash production looks like.
06:06.694 --> 06:11.136
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm saying that because I'll tell you how often you should pee, how often you should poo all that.
06:11.557 --> 06:15.559
[SPEAKER_00]: Without that baseline, it's hard to know when someone's gas production is truly excessive.
06:16.419 --> 06:20.762
[SPEAKER_00]: Hydrogen gives researchers a clue about what your gut microbes are doing as they ferment food.
06:21.203 --> 06:25.866
[SPEAKER_00]: That helps with studies of digestion, microbiomes, and GI conditions were gas affects daily life.
06:26.186 --> 06:29.849
[SPEAKER_00]: The team is also building the Human Flatis Atlas.
06:30.950 --> 06:38.255
[SPEAKER_00]: A project aimed at tracking patterns across hundreds of people, and sorting them by diet and microbone composition, microbone.
06:38.955 --> 06:41.516
[SPEAKER_00]: a microphone, microphone, biome composition.
06:41.957 --> 06:46.999
[SPEAKER_00]: They want the high fiber folks who barely fart the frigate farters and everyone living in the hazy middle.
06:47.439 --> 06:48.840
[SPEAKER_00]: If this sounds ridiculous, good.
06:49.000 --> 06:49.780
[SPEAKER_00]: It's still useful.
06:50.340 --> 06:52.581
[SPEAKER_00]: The numbers were off and the underwear sensor correct them.
06:52.842 --> 06:53.882
[SPEAKER_00]: Scientific progress.
06:54.622 --> 06:55.523
[SPEAKER_00]: One, two, at a time.
06:56.163 --> 07:02.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Now while we're on the subject of farts, I found another article that I think I just have to share here.
07:02.366 --> 07:03.366
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's the end of that article.
07:07.168 --> 07:12.433
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyone who's owned a dog is unfortunately aware of this, but dog is still a fairly small animal.
07:12.573 --> 07:13.394
[SPEAKER_00]: Cats do it too.
07:14.054 --> 07:14.375
[SPEAKER_00]: They do.
07:14.415 --> 07:15.516
[SPEAKER_00]: My cat has definitely farted.
07:16.176 --> 07:19.019
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you ever thought about farts admitting from a larger animal?
07:19.319 --> 07:20.780
[SPEAKER_00]: Say an elephant, a hippopotamus?
07:20.800 --> 07:21.481
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, have you not been to the zoo?
07:21.541 --> 07:22.782
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you not been to the zoo?
07:22.802 --> 07:23.703
[SPEAKER_00]: How about a whale?
07:24.443 --> 07:24.824
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.
07:25.124 --> 07:26.645
[SPEAKER_01]: This article is again for bubbles.
07:27.006 --> 07:29.148
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, from vise, like we're here in a hot tub.
07:30.209 --> 07:48.207
[SPEAKER_00]: That's just hot tub bubble far not me way of arts published in January 29th 2025 written by Sammy Caramel Caramela Sammy Caramela The UK Navy thought they were under attack, but it was just a farting will the Navy thought they were under attack
07:50.175 --> 07:54.197
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm looking at you and you're just like, I'm like, I just said a farting whale and you're just sitting there.
07:55.597 --> 07:57.198
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just trying to figure out if I never mind.
07:57.238 --> 08:01.499
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, I'm picturing a big aircraft carrier and a whale thinking they're under attack.
08:01.539 --> 08:02.920
[SPEAKER_00]: It's probably not an aircraft carrier.
08:03.945 --> 08:11.187
[SPEAKER_00]: The UK's Royal Navy suspected Russian drones were targeting its nuclear subs when they kept hearing suspicious pings in the ocean.
08:11.207 --> 08:11.507
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh.
08:11.527 --> 08:12.127
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my gosh.
08:12.287 --> 08:13.187
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I get it now.
08:13.247 --> 08:14.848
[SPEAKER_01]: They didn't just see bubbles come up.
08:14.928 --> 08:15.428
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
08:15.448 --> 08:16.348
[SPEAKER_00]: They heard pings.
08:18.149 --> 08:19.249
[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine they're surprised.
08:19.329 --> 08:23.830
[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine if, like, hot for Red October, it reads totally different if it's just farting whales.
08:23.870 --> 08:24.190
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
08:24.590 --> 08:26.911
[SPEAKER_00]: It is such so much less dramatic.
08:27.431 --> 08:30.512
[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine they're surprised when they realize it was just a farting whale.
08:31.352 --> 08:31.753
[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.
08:31.833 --> 08:34.055
[SPEAKER_00]: Officials were picking up mysterious sounds that they missed.
08:34.075 --> 08:38.079
[SPEAKER_00]: Look for one of Vladimir Putin's Putin's drugs subs.
08:38.400 --> 08:40.862
[SPEAKER_00]: When really, they were just coming from a shameless whale.
08:41.343 --> 08:44.606
[SPEAKER_00]: We have been analyzing the sounds and now believe it was a marine animal.
08:44.846 --> 08:46.849
[SPEAKER_00]: A whale, a naval official, told the sun.
08:47.289 --> 08:49.471
[SPEAKER_00]: The officials clarified that the two were...
08:50.212 --> 08:51.072
[SPEAKER_01]: I love the Red Toots.
08:51.732 --> 08:56.574
[SPEAKER_00]: I clarify that the Toots were occurring near where the UK's doomsday subs are based.
08:57.214 --> 09:04.796
[SPEAKER_00]: According to the sun, they first detected the noise traveling north towards the open sea, then returning days later and traveling south towards the sky bridge.
09:05.376 --> 09:09.017
[SPEAKER_00]: Naturally, they had to further investigate and sure they were not at risk.
09:09.842 --> 09:21.671
[SPEAKER_01]: We're taking it very seriously another source said, we have to assume the worst that it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin.
09:21.971 --> 09:24.113
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it's better to play it safe than sorry, right?
09:24.473 --> 09:28.957
[SPEAKER_00]: Originally, they believe the sounds were man-made, which they'd never before detected.
09:29.357 --> 09:32.881
[SPEAKER_00]: So, it's only right that they further analyze the situation.
09:33.642 --> 09:38.467
[SPEAKER_00]: We constantly monitor territorial waters to protect the UK, a Navy spokesperson told the sun.
09:38.847 --> 09:43.713
[SPEAKER_00]: But thankfully, in this case, it was nothing more than a gassy marine animal.
09:43.833 --> 09:44.674
[SPEAKER_00]: Are they sure?
09:45.114 --> 09:46.115
[SPEAKER_00]: Could have been an alien.
09:47.076 --> 09:47.717
[SPEAKER_00]: Fart alien.
09:48.958 --> 09:49.479
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, we don't know.
09:49.579 --> 09:50.119
[SPEAKER_00]: Alien's gonna be.
09:50.680 --> 09:51.201
[SPEAKER_00]: Really farty?
09:51.761 --> 09:52.562
[SPEAKER_01]: We don't know.
09:52.743 --> 09:53.443
[SPEAKER_01]: And we don't know.
09:54.144 --> 09:55.406
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay guys, thank you so much.
09:55.466 --> 09:59.271
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope this was a little poof of laughter for your day.
09:59.592 --> 10:00.913
[SPEAKER_00]: A little poof of laughter.
10:01.514 --> 10:06.521

[SPEAKER_00]: See you down the rabbit hole.
10:50.193 --> 10:56.821
[SPEAKER_00]: So, quick behind the scenes confession, making this podcast is a blast, marketing the podcast, not so much.
10:57.161 --> 11:05.812
[SPEAKER_00]: Between researching weird historical mysteries, writing episodes, recording, editing, and trying to remember what day it is, building newsletters always seem to fall to the bottom of the list.
11:06.092 --> 11:12.221
[SPEAKER_00]: The old tools we tried were clunky, time-consuming, and honestly kind of a pain, then we found breezy-send.

[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, come closer.
12:20.767 --> 12:21.948
[SPEAKER_00]: I've got a secret to tell you.
12:22.508 --> 12:24.429
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Seattle, 1924.
12:24.869 --> 12:29.492
[SPEAKER_00]: Prohibition is in full swing, which means the city is drinking harder than ever.
12:30.133 --> 12:38.618
[SPEAKER_00]: Somewhere behind a locked door, Seattle's most interesting criminals are throwing a party, bootleggers, smugglers, gamblers, social lights,
12:38.938 --> 12:44.020
[SPEAKER_00]: And a few politicians who definitely shouldn't be there are all raising a glass together.
12:44.200 --> 12:45.961
[SPEAKER_00]: What could possibly go wrong?
12:46.401 --> 12:48.242
[SPEAKER_00]: And somehow, you've been invited.
12:48.643 --> 13:04.610
[SPEAKER_00]: On October 16th, Boot Lager's ball transform Seattle's historic odd fellow's hall into a living speak easy, inspired by the true stories chronicleed by Brad Holden in Seattle, Brohibition, Boot Lager's run runners, and graft in the Queen City, expect immersive theater.
13:04.990 --> 13:13.740
[SPEAKER_00]: live music, social dancing, handcrafted cocktails, and a cast of characters who may or may not be telling you the whole truth.
13:14.081 --> 13:14.681
[SPEAKER_00]: The best part?
13:15.002 --> 13:15.903
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't need a password.
13:16.223 --> 13:20.768
[SPEAKER_00]: Just the courage to walk through the door as alliance is shift and rivalry simmer.
13:20.949 --> 13:25.614
[SPEAKER_00]: You'll find yourself surrounded by the very people who built Seattle's underground empire.
13:25.814 --> 13:28.335
[SPEAKER_00]: and a few ghosts who may never have left.
13:28.675 --> 13:31.917
[SPEAKER_00]: Dress sharp, keep your wits about you, and trust no one.
13:32.257 --> 13:33.698
[SPEAKER_00]: And is someone offered to a drink?
13:33.958 --> 13:37.299
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, history suggests that you should probably say yes.
13:37.639 --> 13:38.760
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll see you at the speak easy.
13:38.940 --> 13:43.422

00:01.694 --> 00:03.777
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you love badass women of history?
00:04.177 --> 00:10.685
[SPEAKER_00]: Then you need to meet Clondite Kate, the queen of the Yukon, and her unexpected connection to Tacoma's pantages theater.
00:10.945 --> 00:21.198
[SPEAKER_00]: During Cheyenne Jodi, a rainy day rabbit holes for a special live podcast event, Wednesday, September 16th at 7 p.m. at the beautiful Mcminiman's Elx Temple in Tacoma, Washington.
00:21.558 --> 00:28.801
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a night of storytelling, local history, and a few truly questionable life choices that somehow all lead right back to Tacoma.
00:29.001 --> 00:33.803
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll also be doing a meet and greet from 6 to 630 pm, so come say hi before the show.
00:34.183 --> 00:39.105
[SPEAKER_00]: Get your tickets at rainydayrabbleholes.com, and come find out why all roads lead to Tacoma.
00:41.988 --> 00:43.069
[SPEAKER_01]: History is messy.
00:43.289 --> 00:43.629
[SPEAKER_00]: Weird.
00:43.909 --> 00:44.269
[SPEAKER_00]: Wild.
00:44.429 --> 00:45.250
[SPEAKER_00]: Anything but boring.
00:45.510 --> 00:47.111
[SPEAKER_00]: We are rainy day rabbit fools.
00:47.491 --> 00:51.354
[SPEAKER_00]: Exploring the unhinged side of history, politics and culture.
00:51.534 --> 00:53.275
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's fall down the rabbit hole.
00:56.577 --> 01:07.541
[SPEAKER_00]: Look, I don't care how old you are, you have to admit it, farts are funny, a basic human function, we all do it, and for some reason it's hilarious, vaporized turds.
01:08.822 --> 01:10.963
[SPEAKER_00]: That car actually sounded like farting, didn't it?
01:10.983 --> 01:13.984
[SPEAKER_00]: I did, kind of like the phrase, you don't feature it, yeah.
01:14.904 --> 01:24.068
[SPEAKER_00]: The researchers have even discovered that the oldest example of recorded humor is a 3900-year-old Sumerian proverb about flatulant brides.
01:24.188 --> 01:24.588
[SPEAKER_00]: Really?
01:25.048 --> 01:26.149
[SPEAKER_00]: The oldest job brides.
01:26.709 --> 01:27.009
[SPEAKER_00]: The brides.
01:27.029 --> 01:27.629
[SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.
01:27.649 --> 01:31.031
[SPEAKER_00]: There's something about flatulant brides sitting in your lap or something.
01:31.051 --> 01:31.551
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
01:31.611 --> 01:33.052
[SPEAKER_00]: It was funny.
01:33.072 --> 01:34.732
[SPEAKER_00]: But maybe it was 3900 years ago in Sumerian.
01:36.673 --> 01:43.438
[SPEAKER_00]: And, giving that passing gas is a totally natural function of our gastrointestinal system, you know that science hippies have studied it.
01:44.219 --> 01:44.879
[SPEAKER_00]: Science hippies?
01:45.180 --> 01:45.600
[SPEAKER_00]: Science hippies?
01:46.381 --> 01:47.261
[SPEAKER_00]: What's made of?
01:47.701 --> 01:48.922
[SPEAKER_00]: What function does it serve?
01:49.263 --> 01:52.365
[SPEAKER_00]: And most importantly, how often do we all do it?
01:53.225 --> 01:59.730
[SPEAKER_00]: To answer this last question, researchers at the University of Maryland have developed an ingenious contraption.
02:00.411 --> 02:01.652
[SPEAKER_00]: Ingenious contraption?
02:01.832 --> 02:02.032
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
02:04.257 --> 02:04.517
[SPEAKER_00]: Jodi?
02:04.858 --> 02:05.038
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
02:05.979 --> 02:07.401
[SPEAKER_00]: How often do you think you two in a day?
02:08.443 --> 02:11.026
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh gosh, I think it's something like 40, five times or something.
02:11.086 --> 02:12.208
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, average.
02:12.969 --> 02:16.033
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'm here to tell you, it's probably more than you think.
02:16.353 --> 02:16.593
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
02:17.154 --> 02:18.816
[SPEAKER_00]: But you'd probably probably are more correct.
02:19.417 --> 02:19.577
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
02:19.677 --> 02:22.898
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, then they average person probably thinks they do a lot less than that.
02:22.918 --> 02:24.599
[SPEAKER_01]: My kids when they were a little had a book about farts.
02:24.779 --> 02:31.421
[SPEAKER_01]: So I kind of got some details like vaporized turns and like it's something like 40 to 50 times a day like you don't even know.
02:31.441 --> 02:31.681
[SPEAKER_01]: Right?
02:32.441 --> 02:37.863
[SPEAKER_00]: So today we have once again turned to our favorite source for absolutely unhinged information vice.com.
02:38.283 --> 02:40.263
[SPEAKER_00]: This article is from February 11th, 2026.
02:40.383 --> 02:43.104
[SPEAKER_00]: It was written by Ashley Fike.
02:43.264 --> 02:43.564
[SPEAKER_00]: Was that a
02:48.726 --> 02:49.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Thong.
02:49.827 --> 02:50.547
[SPEAKER_00]: That works too.
02:51.167 --> 02:52.047
[SPEAKER_01]: There was probably some thong.
02:52.067 --> 02:54.689
[SPEAKER_00]: There was definitely thongs with that for a while anyway.
02:54.909 --> 03:02.232
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so this is called scientists gave people smart underwear and found we fart way more than we admit smart underwear.
03:02.272 --> 03:10.355
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's like it's like it reminds me of when you drive over those little things on the road when they're trying to count how many times cars go over it and how are you got underwear.
03:10.415 --> 03:10.636
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
03:10.896 --> 03:11.636
[SPEAKER_01]: A little monitor.
03:11.936 --> 03:12.897
[SPEAKER_00]: He took count your twins.
03:14.197 --> 03:17.299
[SPEAKER_00]: 14 Farts a day always sounded suspiciously polite.
03:17.999 --> 03:23.382
[SPEAKER_00]: Clearly, that number was invented by someone who's never shared a studio apartment or taken a long-haul flight in a economy.
03:23.722 --> 03:30.045
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, researchers at University of Maryland have proof that tells us the real truth in the form of smart underwear.
03:30.646 --> 03:32.647
[SPEAKER_00]: The idea is simple and a little gross.
03:33.647 --> 03:34.407
[SPEAKER_01]: How smart is it?
03:34.427 --> 03:40.149
[SPEAKER_01]: What if I accidentally scooted across the chair and it made a bump sign sound with it?
03:40.189 --> 03:41.149
[SPEAKER_01]: No, it's not the sound.
03:42.309 --> 03:43.349
[SPEAKER_01]: So what it was a vibration?
03:43.589 --> 03:44.390
[SPEAKER_00]: Nope, it's not that either.
03:44.790 --> 03:47.350
[SPEAKER_00]: Clip a small device onto your underwear.
03:47.910 --> 03:54.792
[SPEAKER_00]: Go about your day and let it track intestinal gas production on real time by measuring hydrogen in flat ice.
03:55.192 --> 03:55.792
[SPEAKER_00]: Nice, okay.
03:56.072 --> 03:57.173
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's legit.
03:57.213 --> 04:01.974
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because you have a little squeaker that comes out that just a little, I'm guessing that multiple times a day,
04:03.114 --> 04:03.394
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:04.315 --> 04:04.816
[SPEAKER_01]: That is happening.
04:04.836 --> 04:05.096
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
04:05.156 --> 04:09.960
[SPEAKER_00]: It just, your body is doing what it's going to do, which is just meant a little, a little gas.
04:10.460 --> 04:21.630
[SPEAKER_00]: So the catch is that it can't collect data while you're on the toilet, which seems like we're not getting the full picture of body honesty here, but hey, they had to draw the line of privacy somewhere, because you do do a lot of suits on your toilet.
04:21.970 --> 04:23.251
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people save it up for the toilet.
04:23.812 --> 04:23.992
[SPEAKER_01]: Sure.
04:24.312 --> 04:31.535
[SPEAKER_00]: For years, the accepted average hovered around 14 daily suits, based largely on self-reporting and imperfect testing.
04:31.755 --> 04:32.115
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:32.735 --> 04:36.597
[SPEAKER_00]: With the new device, researchers found the average was closer to 32 farts a day.
04:36.937 --> 04:38.217
[SPEAKER_01]: So you're all kind of there.
04:38.317 --> 04:38.537
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:38.917 --> 04:42.859
[SPEAKER_00]: According to reporting on the project and the published research, people varied a lot.
04:43.319 --> 04:45.840
[SPEAKER_00]: Some participants clocked only four farts a day.
04:45.860 --> 04:47.040
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you imagine what were they doing?
04:47.120 --> 04:48.441
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and you were just doing one round.
04:48.521 --> 04:49.001
[SPEAKER_00]: Tight.
04:49.641 --> 04:49.881
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
04:50.202 --> 04:51.162
[SPEAKER_00]: What was their mood like?
04:51.582 --> 04:54.783
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like the more you release your gas the more relaxed you are.
04:54.823 --> 04:56.824
[SPEAKER_01]: Do they not eat vegetables at all?
04:57.024 --> 04:57.724
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, right?
04:58.284 --> 05:02.085
[SPEAKER_00]: Others hit 59, which deserves its own wellness badge, or maybe a warning label.
05:02.526 --> 05:04.326
[SPEAKER_00]: Because they were doing beans and veggies.
05:04.526 --> 05:06.367
[SPEAKER_00]: That's me after my vegetarian weeks.
05:07.447 --> 05:10.388
[SPEAKER_00]: When, or why was the old number so low?
05:10.888 --> 05:16.690
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, because humans are bad at monitoring themselves, especially when the subject is something we've been trained to pretend never happens.
05:17.290 --> 05:18.070
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people forget.
05:18.570 --> 05:19.550
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people round down.
05:19.930 --> 05:24.892
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people only count the loud obvious ones and ignore the stealthy little leeks that still count.
05:25.192 --> 05:26.432
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
05:26.452 --> 05:26.952
[SPEAKER_00]: A little...
05:32.148 --> 05:56.549
[SPEAKER_00]: in a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little
05:56.669 --> 06:03.412
[SPEAKER_00]: Brantley Hall, an assistant professor at UMD, said the bigger issue is that medicine still doesn't have a clear baseline for normal gas production.
06:03.953 --> 06:06.674
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't actually know what normal flash production looks like.
06:06.694 --> 06:11.136
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm saying that because I'll tell you how often you should pee, how often you should poo all that.
06:11.557 --> 06:15.559
[SPEAKER_00]: Without that baseline, it's hard to know when someone's gas production is truly excessive.
06:16.419 --> 06:20.762
[SPEAKER_00]: Hydrogen gives researchers a clue about what your gut microbes are doing as they ferment food.
06:21.203 --> 06:25.866
[SPEAKER_00]: That helps with studies of digestion, microbiomes, and GI conditions were gas affects daily life.
06:26.186 --> 06:29.849
[SPEAKER_00]: The team is also building the Human Flatis Atlas.
06:30.950 --> 06:38.255
[SPEAKER_00]: A project aimed at tracking patterns across hundreds of people, and sorting them by diet and microbone composition, microbone.
06:38.955 --> 06:41.516
[SPEAKER_00]: a microphone, microphone, biome composition.
06:41.957 --> 06:46.999
[SPEAKER_00]: They want the high fiber folks who barely fart the frigate farters and everyone living in the hazy middle.
06:47.439 --> 06:48.840
[SPEAKER_00]: If this sounds ridiculous, good.
06:49.000 --> 06:49.780
[SPEAKER_00]: It's still useful.
06:50.340 --> 06:52.581
[SPEAKER_00]: The numbers were off and the underwear sensor correct them.
06:52.842 --> 06:53.882
[SPEAKER_00]: Scientific progress.
06:54.622 --> 06:55.523
[SPEAKER_00]: One, two, at a time.
06:56.163 --> 07:02.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Now while we're on the subject of farts, I found another article that I think I just have to share here.
07:02.366 --> 07:03.366
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's the end of that article.
07:07.168 --> 07:12.433
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyone who's owned a dog is unfortunately aware of this, but dog is still a fairly small animal.
07:12.573 --> 07:13.394
[SPEAKER_00]: Cats do it too.
07:14.054 --> 07:14.375
[SPEAKER_00]: They do.
07:14.415 --> 07:15.516
[SPEAKER_00]: My cat has definitely farted.
07:16.176 --> 07:19.019
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you ever thought about farts admitting from a larger animal?
07:19.319 --> 07:20.780
[SPEAKER_00]: Say an elephant, a hippopotamus?
07:20.800 --> 07:21.481
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, have you not been to the zoo?
07:21.541 --> 07:22.782
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you not been to the zoo?
07:22.802 --> 07:23.703
[SPEAKER_00]: How about a whale?
07:24.443 --> 07:24.824
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.
07:25.124 --> 07:26.645
[SPEAKER_01]: This article is again for bubbles.
07:27.006 --> 07:29.148
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, from vise, like we're here in a hot tub.
07:30.209 --> 07:48.207
[SPEAKER_00]: That's just hot tub bubble far not me way of arts published in January 29th 2025 written by Sammy Caramel Caramela Sammy Caramela The UK Navy thought they were under attack, but it was just a farting will the Navy thought they were under attack
07:50.175 --> 07:54.197
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm looking at you and you're just like, I'm like, I just said a farting whale and you're just sitting there.
07:55.597 --> 07:57.198
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just trying to figure out if I never mind.
07:57.238 --> 08:01.499
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, I'm picturing a big aircraft carrier and a whale thinking they're under attack.
08:01.539 --> 08:02.920
[SPEAKER_00]: It's probably not an aircraft carrier.
08:03.945 --> 08:11.187
[SPEAKER_00]: The UK's Royal Navy suspected Russian drones were targeting its nuclear subs when they kept hearing suspicious pings in the ocean.
08:11.207 --> 08:11.507
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh.
08:11.527 --> 08:12.127
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my gosh.
08:12.287 --> 08:13.187
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I get it now.
08:13.247 --> 08:14.848
[SPEAKER_01]: They didn't just see bubbles come up.
08:14.928 --> 08:15.428
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
08:15.448 --> 08:16.348
[SPEAKER_00]: They heard pings.
08:18.149 --> 08:19.249
[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine they're surprised.
08:19.329 --> 08:23.830
[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine if, like, hot for Red October, it reads totally different if it's just farting whales.
08:23.870 --> 08:24.190
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
08:24.590 --> 08:26.911
[SPEAKER_00]: It is such so much less dramatic.
08:27.431 --> 08:30.512
[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine they're surprised when they realize it was just a farting whale.
08:31.352 --> 08:31.753
[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.
08:31.833 --> 08:34.055
[SPEAKER_00]: Officials were picking up mysterious sounds that they missed.
08:34.075 --> 08:38.079
[SPEAKER_00]: Look for one of Vladimir Putin's Putin's drugs subs.
08:38.400 --> 08:40.862
[SPEAKER_00]: When really, they were just coming from a shameless whale.
08:41.343 --> 08:44.606
[SPEAKER_00]: We have been analyzing the sounds and now believe it was a marine animal.
08:44.846 --> 08:46.849
[SPEAKER_00]: A whale, a naval official, told the sun.
08:47.289 --> 08:49.471
[SPEAKER_00]: The officials clarified that the two were...
08:50.212 --> 08:51.072
[SPEAKER_01]: I love the Red Toots.
08:51.732 --> 08:56.574
[SPEAKER_00]: I clarify that the Toots were occurring near where the UK's doomsday subs are based.
08:57.214 --> 09:04.796
[SPEAKER_00]: According to the sun, they first detected the noise traveling north towards the open sea, then returning days later and traveling south towards the sky bridge.
09:05.376 --> 09:09.017
[SPEAKER_00]: Naturally, they had to further investigate and sure they were not at risk.
09:09.842 --> 09:21.671
[SPEAKER_01]: We're taking it very seriously another source said, we have to assume the worst that it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin, it's Putin.
09:21.971 --> 09:24.113
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it's better to play it safe than sorry, right?
09:24.473 --> 09:28.957
[SPEAKER_00]: Originally, they believe the sounds were man-made, which they'd never before detected.
09:29.357 --> 09:32.881
[SPEAKER_00]: So, it's only right that they further analyze the situation.
09:33.642 --> 09:38.467
[SPEAKER_00]: We constantly monitor territorial waters to protect the UK, a Navy spokesperson told the sun.
09:38.847 --> 09:43.713
[SPEAKER_00]: But thankfully, in this case, it was nothing more than a gassy marine animal.
09:43.833 --> 09:44.674
[SPEAKER_00]: Are they sure?
09:45.114 --> 09:46.115
[SPEAKER_00]: Could have been an alien.
09:47.076 --> 09:47.717
[SPEAKER_00]: Fart alien.
09:48.958 --> 09:49.479
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, we don't know.
09:49.579 --> 09:50.119
[SPEAKER_00]: Alien's gonna be.
09:50.680 --> 09:51.201
[SPEAKER_00]: Really farty?
09:51.761 --> 09:52.562
[SPEAKER_01]: We don't know.
09:52.743 --> 09:53.443
[SPEAKER_01]: And we don't know.
09:54.144 --> 09:55.406
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay guys, thank you so much.

10:50.193 --> 10:56.821
[SPEAKER_00]: So, quick behind the scenes confession, making this podcast is a blast, marketing the podcast, not so much.
10:57.161 --> 11:05.812
[SPEAKER_00]: Between researching weird historical mysteries, writing episodes, recording, editing, and trying to remember what day it is, building newsletters always seem to fall to the bottom of the list.
11:06.092 --> 11:12.221

12:22.508 --> 12:24.429
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Seattle, 1924.
12:24.869 --> 12:29.492
[SPEAKER_00]: Prohibition is in full swing, which means the city is drinking harder than ever.
12:30.133 --> 12:38.618
[SPEAKER_00]: Somewhere behind a locked door, Seattle's most interesting criminals are throwing a party, bootleggers, smugglers, gamblers, social lights,
12:38.938 --> 12:44.020
[SPEAKER_00]: And a few politicians who definitely shouldn't be there are all raising a glass together.
12:44.200 --> 12:45.961
[SPEAKER_00]: What could possibly go wrong?
12:46.401 --> 12:48.242
[SPEAKER_00]: And somehow, you've been invited.
12:48.643 --> 13:04.610

[SPEAKER_00]: Just the courage to walk through the door as alliance is shift and rivalry simmer.
13:20.949 --> 13:25.614
[SPEAKER_00]: You'll find yourself surrounded by the very people who built Seattle's underground empire.
13:25.814 --> 13:28.335
[SPEAKER_00]: and a few ghosts who may never have left.
