Hey, guys, welcome back to My Kajiggers with Dan and Emily and Molly.
Hello. Today, we're back in our panel.
Molloy's is back to talk to us about her crippling gambling addiction and her road to recovery.
It's been a hard time because you have no idea.
They say, you know, you've hit rock bottom when you start betting on the outcome of historical wars.
Yeah, I can't go along with it anymore. I have no idea. I do not have a gambling addiction. For the record, I am fine. First step is admitting. Yes, we're not there yet. You're fine, but also not fine.
Aren't we all. Yeah. Okay.
Just from getting this show started, I'd say, no, we're not all right.
Oh absolutely. And I'm extremely hungover and Molly is on little sleep so they're both slaphappy.
Even my best light.
I.
So how's everybody doing? Not having a good week.
Yeah, so one of my friends actually this morning, because I was sending them snaps of me and my other friend Al, I sent back for I feel like an old broad. I can't do this again because it's been a while since I've actually been out drinking. And she texts back, she goes, So are you thriving or surviving? I'm like, I'm barely surviving. There's no thriving at all. It was rough morning, but other than that, my a week went by actually pretty quickly. Not much really going on.
Molly, did you have a good week. Yeah, I have just been super busy with work and school. I'm actually finishing up my online class for the summer next week and then I have a week off and then I start fall semester. So not much of a break, but that's kept me super busy and then working the days that I don't have school. So only the days of the weekend or my days at this point, which is nice. I like the schedule overall.
I don't have a lot going on. Lost a really bad co-worker and I'm on vacation, so that's good.
Right now I'm just ready for fall semester to start. Let me do some good work. Yeah, well, school's basically online. I say, well yeah, most of them will probably be able to continue working through.
We could just cancel school forever.
Nobody needs education or what you were going to What the Fuck News. Yeah. Or the return of What the Fuck News.
My first one is Rhode Island mistakenly issued tax refund checks signed by Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse on your way to get off having to pay. Yeah. So Rhode Island issued one hundred and seventy six tax refund checks signed by Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse instead of the state treasurer. And it was all because of a misprint glitch on the taxation's automated refund check printing system. But oh, fuck. Do you get Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse? Yeah. Why is it in Rhode Island?
Yeah, it's got to be just something that, you know, you've seen like sample IDs and stuff where it's always like one, two, three, four. Yeah. I'm sure somewhere they have a sample. This is what the checker looked like and they just need a name put on there to be funny to put Mickey Mouse on and then they go and produce. Yeah.
So do they get that money back. They canceled those checks so that can't be deposited and they are re sending them out and says that most of them went to corporations rather than people, but like they had to cancel them. And how many people dupa are going to try and cash us. So probably quite a few. There really wasn't much. I just thought the headline was funny.
Ok, yeah, it's kind of one of those stupid stories. Mine's from the New York Post baboon's armed with knives and chainsaws spotted in UK Safari Park.
Where do you guys find this stuff? Facebook.
I get a lot mine from the Subrata, not the Onion, which is headlines. It sounds so ridiculous.
They should be satire, but we are not Jesus. So for some reason I was imagining this was in Africa or India. And then I read the article closer and yeah, it's a safari park in Britain.
You just drive through and they have tigers, apes, lions, rhinos and other animals just out in the open.
Oh nice. Seems safe.
Yeah.
The baboons are already known for vandalizing cars and trying to steal shit, but there's been growing reports of a roving gang of baboons carrying blades, screwdrivers and a chainsaw in the park. Employees don't know how they're getting them.
They think it's possible they might be just deal them out like bed trucks and stuff like the park. Well, just people driving through because that's what you do there. But they're also worried that people are intentionally arming them for laughs.
I was just about to say, I hope they put up signs that say, please, like, you know, please do not be the animals. Please don't harm our animals.
Yeah. In twenty twenty. Let's not be doing that.
We don't need to hear you say one more thing.
Yeah. I keep seeing various headlines like scientists discover previously unknown ancient bacteria frozen in ice and shit like that might leave this alone. Like in twenty twenty. We just need to all agree to not just leaving everything alone, but it's great because this park is like the well known to Mechanics' in the area because people drive through and they get the car split up.
And one mechanic in the article is quoted as well, the kids start chirping up saying they want monkeys all over the car. And the next thing you know, you're driving home with no registration plate. Good money for us money. So I'm not complaining.
And Karakoram Air just love this park because the kids just talk their parents into.
And then it trashes the political battle, like, do you just drive through the park? Yeah. So they literally attack your car as you're driving to. Yeah. What the heck? The whole idea seems weird to me, especially because there's also Rhino's eyes. What's to stop people from getting out of their cars? Isn't England very cool anyway?
A lot cooler than over? Yeah, that's another.
But I had all of these animals surviving in a safari when England and Britain in general are probably like 10, 15, 20 degrees cooler than here.
And it rains a lot more over there.
Yeah, the whole business is questionable.
If anything, they should have like their own cars that drive through and then like people late in the week in a mega dome, at least it's like controlled climate or like Jurassic Park where.
Yeah, like that's what I was thinking out of the jeep. Yeah. Yeah. I don't I don't understand how this thing is even happening. Yeah, it's not. So what's your next story.
Playing overloaded with cocaine, crashes on takeoff, exposing alleged crime syndicate. How did it explode. I'll get into that. OK, a light aircraft overloaded with cocaine crashed on takeoff on its way to Australia and is exposing a Melbourne based crime syndicate leading the arrest of five men and links to the Italian mafia. Oh, it had more than 500 kilograms, which is eleven hundred pounds of cocaine. And let's see it. It's a it's one of those like little and almost looks like a pan hopper and obviously eleven hundred pounds is probably going to cost that motherfucker.
I saw that same article and I was the people that got arrested. I would not be worried about the legal consequences. I'd be more concerned with the consequences of whose business I have just fucked up. No kidding. You got hired to smuggle a shipment and now it's lost and you've exposed the whole operation. You're not going to live. Yeah.
So I guess not only did it crash, but after crashing, they took off with the drugs. It is estimated value is eighty million Australian dollars, which is about fifty seven million US dollars and could be equivalent to about five hundred thousand street bills.
Yeah. Let's say your best bet is to immediately agree to whatever deal the government gives you and go into witness protection because your ass is grass.
Oh yeah. And this is the largest drug bust in recent Australian history. Are you fucking stupid? Yeah. Like I would, you know, I take like multiple trips. Why would I'm giving people bad ideas realistically, people.
Why would you put eleven hundred pounds of cocaine in a little pond hopper.
It's always stupid stuff like that that exposes the big operation.
Be a tiny little plane and they're like these greedy motherfuckers like you have to take. And it went down because of the way.
Yeah. Stupid. So my next one I love this story is the article that just keeps on giving. You're scaring me.
Another great one from the New York Post also about something happening in Britain. A man who lost penis to blood infection has new one built on his arm. The story that leads up to this is so, so great. Malcolm MacDonald, a forty five year old British man, suffered an infection that turned his fingers, toes and manhood black, ultimately causing him to fall off.
Holy shit. Yeah, here's a quote.
When I saw my penis go black, I was beside myself. It was like a horror film. I was in a complete panic. I knew deep down it was gone and I was going to lose it.
So was he aware of this blood infection before all this happened?
Yeah, it's unclear how long it took, but like it was something that was he saw it coming. Yeah. And I don't know how are they treating it? It just wasn't effective.
But but like it was probably a possibility from the beginning after being. Yeah. This. Yeah. So did he just lose his penis or did he lose his fingers and toes to just how unfortunate.
Yeah but he goes on OK, he was completely gutted when his penis just dropped off onto the floor in 2014.
Oh my God. But his testicles remain intact.
I'm sorry I'm not a guy obviously. But can you just imagine just walking in your penis just fell off.
I believe it was like a horror film. Sounds about right.
Bleed after it just fell off or like I think it was kind of like when, you know, some people put a rubber band around the dog's tail.
Oh, they do that to bulls. Yeah. Like to castrator. Uh huh, yeah.
I think it's like just killed off the blood vessels or something like what was he.
By doing that, he was named like so named I had the same call, where was he walking around his house, like when you were you were you going to the bathroom, were about to get a shower. And it just goes, what if he was trying to flee and it just falls in the toilet? Yeah. Would you be able to pee? We'll get to that.
Well, I meant like with a blood infection of your penis was black. Would you still be able to pee through it? I would imagine. Yeah. I mean I mean, there's other means of defecation and urinate. I wonder is now I guess the one on his arm does is it functional. Look at this. Tell you the story just made a hole down there because you had to they probably did something to the ureter.
You can't be sanitary, maybe catheter to keep it closed.
Anyway, since he had some time to see this coming, you kind of already accept this inevitability. So he says he just picked it up and threw it in the trash.
Ok.
Usually the cash register is the best, technically he's British, so his quote was, if it had been but he had enough sense, he's like, I should probably go get this checked out. Now, that's fallen off. OK, probably like this is probably cause to go to the hospital company comes over, there's a penis in the trash can.
Yeah, I want to know, like, was it hard? Was it still squishy?
Was like, we don't have too many questions, we don't have those details down.
But his quote now he says, I went to the hospital and they said the best they could do for me was to roll the remaining stump up like a little sausage roll.
It was heartbreaking.
A little central west where they really are, they rolled it up like I'm thinking too big to be really good.
So after this experience, he was a little depressed for a couple of years, just kind of drinking all the time. OK, being a recluse until he met a doctor who said he could regrow my penis as a graft on his arm. Have you seen the stories of people like they can grow ears on a much same basic concept? OK, but a penis. And since they have the national health care system in Britain, the government was paying for it, but not as a cosmetic thing. It was only eligible because he needed to be or it could help him be. I guess he's somehow he's great functional. Yeah. But he figured while they were doing it anyway, he would make a request from the doctors and they agreed that they could grow an extra two inches. Yeah. It doesn't say what you started with, but he went for the extra two inches. And unfortunately for him, it was supposed to take two years to grow. But also since the national health care system there, they have a lot of delays. There's been a lot of scheduling issues on his side, staff shortages. And he was about to get it grafted into the proper location when the coronavirus pandemics go now. So now he's still stuck with it on his own. It's been four years. Is it still growing? Yeah. It able to be moved at this point. Yes. But at the moment, he can't get in anywhere to have it taken from his arm to between his legs. And he says he sometimes feels like he's first, but he hopes to have it grafted in the proper location by the end of the year. His final quote is, I'm determined his penis will ultimately be used for what it was built or some goddamn pwn. Oh, there's an added little detail. So he's a mechanic, so he's constantly reaching into place.
Can he feel it?
I would imagine he has to have like nerves because like it's growing off of blood vessels and stuff in his arm. So he's got like a double is like this. The original article has a photo of him in his sleeves rolled up, but the whole form is just damage. Oh, it's great. I need to see the. See it. See it.
Yeah. Like, I want to know what it looked like on his arm. I have too many.
I don't want to know what the stump looked like.
The federal, the vertical or not. The vertical. The horizontal sausage roll.
I have too many unanswered questions with this article and I need visual answers.
Yeah, that's all there is to it. But like I said, it's a story that keeps on giving.
It is so it's so unfortunate for this guy like kind of Kurds is Dick fell off, but he got to keep his fingers and toes, which is really impressive, but like to watch his dick literally fall on the ground.
I can't touch the part that got me when I was first hit the floor.
So I was like, was it like a like fleshy slap or was it like dropping jerky on the floor?
That's why I want to know if it had a squishier to it or if it was just kind of like hard from the bloody crusty cat turns to dust. Yeah.
There's so many unanswered questions and I need visual. Maybe we'll get a bio pic someday. And that should be Lin Manuel Miranda's next biographical play. Gosh, speaking of Lin Manuel Miranda, we forgot to mention this at the opening of the show, but the big topic of our show today is Hamilton now on Disney. Plus, that was Molly's choosing. Yes, sir. This is longer than I expected. Yeah, it's like over two hours. It's three hours. Yeah. So, Molly, since this was your pick, why don't you start us off with just your general feelings on the music?
I really liked it. I have been listening to the soundtrack for it since it came out. I remember going to New York and like listen to the soundtrack the whole way there. I knew that the play obviously, or it's a musical, but when I first watched it, I was a little confused. I guess there wasn't much dialogue. Like it's basically all the soundtrack.
The musical is the soundtrack An that I had because sometimes I was kind of hard to keep up, I guess, to put on the subtitles.
Yes. So I've seen this like at least five times. I've watched a lot. And each time I watch it, I get goosebumps. I really like musicals. They're very fascinating to me. The work that is put into them is intense. And so to like see it all come together for the first time is really cool. So, like, they're dancing extremely impressive to me. Their vocals were phenomenal. And just like the acting, the scene where their son Philip dies and like Eliza, like screams at the very end, like, made me cry. I was like, oh, OK. That part was not in the soundtrack and I was not. Mentally prepared for that, but all right, cool, and just like Eliza's is acting in general was phenomenal to me, so I really enjoyed it. But for me, some people have told me that they really like it or they really do not like it. There hasn't really been in between.
From what I've heard, I actually didn't like it. I could not get into it whatsoever. I don't know what it is because I love musicals. I love plays. I love Broadway shows. I could not get into this. It was a struggle for me to go through this movie. But the people who played the parts were very strong actors. And I was I was very impressed with them and they suited the roles very, very well. The singing was awesome. The leads came out powerful, not only the female leads when they were coming out there and Act one came out strong and I love them. And I think one of the other things I was very, very impressed with is the amount of people of color that were in this production. That's the word. And I loved it, absolutely loved it because they played those parts. Amazing. But in general, I hated it.
I'm kind of in between you two. I've really been looking forward to seeing this before. I knew they were going to do this plus thing. I was really hoping they would make one of those big movie productions eventually, which I still hope they do. I would watch it. I mean, I prefer the movie version of Rent over the stage version. The music is really the strong suit of this and the different styles. The story's kind of lacking. I had to break it up into chunks because I just was not invested in the characters.
Despite the amazing acting and depictions, I think I moved from part to part two quickly. And I think that is because of the singing and singing with acting. Yes, I think seeing this in person would have been completely different. Rather than being on a TV. I think I would have had a more enjoyable experience because like a few years ago, I went and saw Fenrir the opera phenomenal. And I would rather have an in-person experience. So I wonder if, like, I would enjoy it more actually seeing it in live production rather than watching it on my TV.
Yeah, I didn't hate it and I would definitely listen to the soundtrack again, probably before I watched this. I might go back and watch parts of this again because I enjoyed it and I have a degree in history. So there was parts of it that was like, yeah, I know exactly what's going on there. Even though I'm not expert on Hamilton himself, I just I learned a lot about him from this. And I assume it's obviously fictionalized. But there was parts like Washington complain about how undisciplined his people were on supply. They were supposed to be fighting a war in the the Congress won't even give them supplies like that. Like, yeah, I know exactly what's going on there. But on the whole, it just was a little overly long. Yeah. Yeah. It could have been pared down, maybe not told his whole life story, but the music is phenomenal and the different styles. I really is like some reggae mix in there.
Who can we talk about this at first, like the floor, the theater that they're in. And I don't know if it's in all the theaters that they do this, but the turntable, the turning floor was so well used and I thought I was so cool to watch.
But one of those on a trading floor, that's cool. For one year, I was a theater major as a pain in the ass.
Yeah. Most like bigger theaters have turntables, like I know the Fox does. And when we went to New York and were up on a Broadway show, they had one. So most of them do, but it's usually like bigger theaters.
Yeah, the thing that impressed me was that the center stays like stationary.
Yeah. But it also moved in the fact like one person would be in one spot and then them rotating around. The people who were singing were in specific spots and when it moved, I was impressed. It was really well done. The staging of each spot in the scene, very well done. And they busted ass doing it.
It always blows me away to see like Broadway productions like that, like you see this huge, like big numbers with the whole cast and everything. And then you see them come out at the end and you're like, oh, that's it. That's all that's there. They make it look so much bigger than it actually is.
That's a real trick. You like theater is to build a minimalist set that still serves the purpose of the entire story that I definitely appreciate the hard work that goes into that set design. What do you guys think of Hamilton? We'll say the character. Like I said, obviously this is going to be fictionalized to some degree. So let's let's talk about it as a completely fictional story rather than trying to look make any kind of historical point of view.
I actually I mean, I love history, but I'm not a history major. So I actually didn't know Hammil Alexander Hamilton's life. I mean, I knew the characters. They all were very familiar to me. But like, I didn't realize some of the things that actually happened. And I. Didn't know his place in history, honestly, and I remember standing a little bit about him, but you know how schools are and jumping around on history and missing important things. So, I mean, we barely touched base with Hamilton in school. So seeing it played out and I know that it wasn't like everything, but like important parts in his life were portrayed in this. So, I mean, was he a lawyer?
Was Alexander Hamilton a lawyer at one point? Yeah, they showed him as a lawyer, OK. Yeah, he did that. And then he was like he wrote a lot of the papers. Yeah. So his importance to history is the fact that he helped create the Declaration of Independence, the first national bank.
He was the first OK, Treasury secretary, the whole argument to him and Thomas Jefferson are having, which I came into this my only real knowledge of Hamilton himself was from the HBO John Adams movie, which takes the opposite side, is more sympathetic to Jefferson and shows him like Hamilton is just lucky that there are a whole argument is coming from what is this new nation going to be.
Many people saw as the states were just that, independent states joining their power together under the United States. So it wasn't supposed to be a centralized government. They're all just working together. And that's kind of Jefferson's point of view.
He wants everybody to be independent states. Yeah. I mean, not like countries, but like they should all be sovereign to themselves.
Hamilton What he's saying is for us to actually have power as a group, we have to centralize the power.
And to do that, we have to have money for this centralized government and we have to build credit so other countries will follow this money. So they all the independent states debt assume that themselves, which gives them a credit history and whatnot, develop the Treasury and now they can borrow more money from other countries, because I guess if you're if you have debt, that means you'll pay. I still understand that. But it's kind of like how your credit score now you're better off having open accounts than no debt at all. I still don't understand it, but that's kind of what Hamilton's thinking was and was probably right. But that's the argument for having is where does the power reside? One central government or a bunch of smaller governments agreeing or.
I had to say this is the seventeen hundreds. The knowledge that they have is actually quite impressive because I mean, at the time you just pointed out your ass. But when you actually look back at it, they're brilliant.
I know Aaron Burr and Hamilton were very knowledgeable people, especially coming from the backgrounds that they had. But it's honestly impressive to sit there and think like these people created the first steps of a country out of nothing. I mean, they took ideas probably from other places, but like to sit down without actually knowledge of how to run a country and make these laws and create you said the bank. And then it kind of shows George Washington a little bit on his struggle with the presidency or becoming the president of the nation. But I'm very impressed.
Yeah, that's one thing I like about any production like this is humanizing the founding fathers and looking at yeah, they there are these icons, but they were also people imperfect, but also brilliant. They had their disagreements. Some of them did very bad things. They were too large parts, so educated. I mean, there were universities. The education system wasn't what it is now. Yeah. You largely have to go seek out books.
You had to be your source of knowledge and so philosophical.
You don't get that today. No. It's so much all about politics. Yeah. Which it was then too. But just so much.
It's like so philosophical. Or else you have people like Jared Leto.
Yeah. That's not philosophical. That's douche bag.
We're calling a little bit and then we just do that every episode. Just Collar is bullshit.
Rename our episode or rename our podcast. Jared Leto is a douche bag. Yeah, Hamilton, the man. Do you like him? Not like him, character wise.
I did I he did like some pretty shitty things obviously, but he also did a lot of good things. And so you kind of have to like say that like just because you did a bad thing, does it make you a bad person?
And so he cheated on his wife and that was bad and that was heartbreaking for her. And obviously their son died and that was even harder for them because they were kind of broken.
And then she finds out about that, not from somebody else, from him in the papers because he posted it all.
But then for them to be able to come back together after that and him wanting to work it out and not just saying, screw it, I'm leaving, I think that was good on his part. And obviously he got a bad rap for that, which he should rightfully, but they were able to make it up in the end. And obviously he did right by her after that.
And then she did right by him after he passed. So he had a hard life. He was an orphan. People didn't like him. He had to basically fight and gain all the knowledge that he could on his own and then made something out of his life for himself, which I think is pretty impressive because he could have just been a street rat.
Exactly. He wanted more exacting because his father left and his mom, he almost died because he was super sick and his mom died and having to grow up watching not only your father, but, what, literally watching your mother die and then other people in your family and then being just tossed out. And he could either, you know, I'm going to live on the streets or I'm going to become someone.
I mean, and even then, two people were still, like, shooting him down. Like, you're not going to amount to anything and you won't make it. And he was still trying as hard as and he didn't stop after that. I just think that's a pretty, pretty cool story from especially like you said so long ago, like it was always hard. People talk about it. I like people putting each other down, like it's always been like that just in different settings.
I didn't really like them to me. Like, he's just, I guess coming from that working background, he's just so hungry to move up. And I don't think they shy away from this depiction. It's actually probably exaggerated in the play of, like, he's almost obsessed with what's next, what am I doing, what's my legacy?
Always grasping for more, but not being satisfied with what he has at the moment, almost like he's losing himself to not to power, but to obsession. Yeah. And I'm all fifty fifty. I liked him, but the way that he portrays himself, extremely smart but almost cocky in a way. Absolutely. Yeah definitely. Because he was so smart and you know he talks and talks like he almost in certain ways, like sometimes he'll be like very like even keel and other times he's biggest asshole, just so governed by his emotions, passions.
There's a part earlier in the musical where he just keeps asking George Washington, give me a man, give me some men, let me prove myself at the same time, follow a simple order of, hey, don't go shoot that guy that just said some bad things about George Washington. And then he doesn't do it himself, but he lets one of his friends do it for him. He gets in trouble and doesn't understand why. If you want to do it. Yeah, if you want to be a leader, you also got to know when to quit. Yeah. When to put your own feelings aside for the greater good.
What do you think of a king in his songs? You cracked me up every time he came out.
I could hear the audience laugh and it would just make me laugh more because he was just he was so on point with his character when he would sing and then the split would come out and be like drooling on him.
So he just kind of has, like, crazy. I loved it.
It's like he's going through a bad breakup. Yes. The subtext of every song is I wouldn't have to be so abusive to you if you make me so mad.
I like when he would do the data.
Yeah. Yeah. And like the faces that he made because he it all wide eyed when he'd say it. It's almost like he's losing his mind. Yes.
Well the great thing is like at one point he says I go mad if I lost you. That King literally went mad.
I think it was funny how quickly he could change from being all like musical about like the lady dolls or whatever. And then you kind of like caucus had at one point he was just like everybody, like, come on, everybody sing now. And they all came in. And his ability to change that quickly with his acting was impressive.
The acting in this, if I had to give this movie anything, it's acting a hundred percent.
The people who were the actors did phenomenal, the way they portray the characters and the concept of the play of we're going to modernize this. And Thomas Jefferson, he's got such swagger in this, the way they portray him here. We just come back and just like, hey, what a mess. Oh, well, we just a war. Where were you and how the French. Yeah. And he just says it's.
Wagger, they'll hold out great the subtle digs in that musical number for good. What part was it was in the second act when they're passing the microphone when they were in different battles.
I love the last one was good.
Well, as soon as I saw, like, the way they were stage on stage and I might be able to have a rap battle, that certainly takes away from the historical point.
But we'll all see that scene, though.
Yeah, it's great because those were actual arguments they were having at the time. And it gives a modern world perspective on it. Like, yeah, they were just sniping at each other.
Like, what do you. Well, I guess they probably didn't have anything written down of actual things they said in that in the arguments.
Well, I doubt the actual discussions, but at that time, pretty close, probably there was no hesitation to write essays and make anonymous publications or not anonymous publications, basically just calling people out. It wasn't a rap battle, but it was very publicly this person to ask.
They just hate each other so much at one time was never a president on the ten dollar bill, right? Yeah, I guess the Treasury. Yeah, my mom was asking that after she watched it too, because she also was like, OK, what was his what did he do? What was the point of all that? Like, she didn't get it either.
Also reminded me of some I had forgotten was how the presidential elections used to work of the runner up becomes a vice president.
So you just start working with somebody that's been there for many years to stop after they made like a amendment, after a while after Arenberg became vice president to Jefferson. I think that was the catalyst of what? This isn't gonna work. Yeah. So now you have to have a separate election for the vice president. Little crazy, which the way it works now, like the pick running mates, technically the Electoral College still has to pick. It always comes out the running mate. Technically, it doesn't have to.
Ok, I actually didn't know that.
Yeah, I had forgotten about until I saw it in this. Oh yeah. I like that's just something we forget and nobody talks about because it makes life simple.
I don't think I actually knew because it. But doesn't President number three.
Yes. Adams got elected president. Jefferson was the runner up. And they were often on friends and enemies throughout their life, their whole relationship is fascinating, but at that point they so they could work together and then that just kind of carried on like we should probably buy a better system, but, you know.
Yeah, I'm not saying do it now all. Absolutely not. Dan, you know, I think I could probably come close.
Like, if you gave me a piece of paper, I probably wouldn't get an order. Right.
I would probably be a little you know, honestly, if you think about it, we've only had forty five presidents in our entire United States history class. And that's kind of crazy to think about.
I love that part. In Hamilton, where the king is here is that George Washington has stepped down from office. That's something you can do.
Then he asks who who's going to take this place like we're going to do?
Just keep replacing their leaves a ha ha. It is kind of a radical idea. You think about monarchy, four years, eight years in the grand scheme of history. That's not that long to get things done. No, it's really fascinating. I really like there's one song with Aaron Burr and Hamilton are both singing to the newborn kids.
Yeah. Oh, that was just just seeing, like, the happiness on their faces, imagining what their kids are going to do.
What did Aaron Burr ever marry? Because like you get married.
Was it the woman who was Fenosa? Yeah, because I'm pretty sure the girl with maybe those are two wasn't.
Yeah. I didn't have anything else to say on hand and I was all my notes. I do have a game for you guys to play like last time. OK, but first a word from our sponsor. Oh God. We don't have an actual sponsor.
Ok, I was like what. What, how do you know this could be our first legit sponsor and you're already badmouthing.
Is it a legit sponsor? I think you would tell me if we had a legit sponsor. So it's in your line, a sponsored video yet?
Unfortunately, it's not a video yet either. Fuck whatever. As you just recently pointed out, we're not video. Move on. Yeah, the hostility in here is to prove.
Yes.
Up living long enough to do this. Are you ready?
I guess audiences the world over have fallen in love with Broadway's modernized telling of Alexander Hamilton's untold story. And now there's a new untold chapter brought to you by the associate producer of 12 Years a Slave and the co executive producer of Too Fast to Furious.
The nation's first treasury secretary was a broken man, publicly disgraced and reeling from the death of his son, he retreated from politics, hoping to live a quiet life, bonding with the new puppy he received as a final gift from his dying son. But his rivals couldn't leave him alone. They killed his dog, and now he's back with a vengeance. Keanu Reeves is Alexander Hamilton WEC. Aided by a time traveling ally, he's armed with the 21st century's deadliest weapons. And you can be sure this marksman is not going to throw away his shot. The only law he recognizes now is that the man with the gun decides who lives, who dies, who tells your story.
And I die.
He's a one man hurricaine and he's going to blow them all away. Costarring Chris Ludacris Bridges as Nikola Tesla, John Cena as Thomas Jefferson, and that one guy from Game of Thrones as Aaron Burr. No, not that guy. The other one, Hammil Wick, coming soon to a theater near you.
I don't get how Nikola Tesla is even in this.
He's the time traveling ally that pops arm Alexander Hamilton with. What's to understand?
I don't even like it. I know I will give you one single point for making camel work, and that's it.
I don't get a point for John Cena. No Thomas Jefferson. Absolutely not.
You can't tell me he would not have fun with playing Thomas Jefferson as depicted in Hamilton.
As long as he does that, you can't see me telling the process.
It's how he avoids getting shot.
I hate that John Marsden is just getting mowed down and Jodziewicz is from his base hamlets. Like where the fuck did he go?
Did you ever watch WWE wrestling on CNN? It was a huge wrestler for many, many years and his staple was doing this OK, because you can't see me.
And the great thing is, like, I'm not even like a huge John Cena fan. Like, I was never into him as a wrestler. But I enjoy his shtick and like, he's an OK actor.
But I honestly does hefty trash bag commercials now.
Nice. Well, he has the greatest line in the entire Transformers franchise in the movie Bumblebee. He's like a soldier talking to his superiors and his superiors are trying to work with the perception is like they literally call themselves the Decepticons. This doesn't raise any red flags for you.
I don't know who it is and I don't watch Bumblebee.
It's not a bad movie. It's not directed by Michael Bay. So that's a point in its favor. But here's how much I like John Siena's invisibility bullshit. I was on Amazon one day looking at random bunko pops. You know what those are? I do. And I wasn't looking for a John Cena one, but I found one and it was made out of transparent plastic.
So he's invisible and I immediately bought it. I'd even do I by now. And then I discovered after the fact his hand is like up in his face, but the head turns so you can make it go back.
I love everything about that. I'm pretty sure you sent me a picture of it.
Yes, I had it on my desk at work. It brings me much joy. What's that? What's joy?
But it's fleeting. Very. OK, let's get to a game of this episode.
Yeah, I'm excited because Dan hasn't told us what this game is inspired by the iconic Alexander Hamilton epic game called Lexicon, where you're going to guess words from their definitions and all the answers, at least like the word has.
Yes. Do you have an example? Yeah, just step into it.
But I'm going to give you a definition. I guess a word was in with your name or if you want to get double points in C++, motherfucker, just however you want to buzz in and then you get a chance to guess.
So I just get points. If I say buzz both motherfucker. No, you have to get it right. OK, but if you if you get it right, you two points instead of one.
Ok, first word, a shadow resistant acrylic sheeting that can be used as malefactor plexiglass.
Correct.
My brain doesn't work for this next word capable of bending easily without Breaking Bad spells with four flexible. Yes, I had to think about it a lot. I was about to give you the clue. It was the opposite of Emily's ACL.
I have hyperextension, so they're technically flexible, but they definitely don't been that way, it's not capable of beating without breaking your next word.
Oh, these are can be people, too, OK? She's Greek king who established the largest empire the ancient world had ever seen. But as far as motherfucker is Alexander the Great, yes, it is next. Where the natural color, texture and appearance of a person's skin, especially the face. Buzz, buzz, motherfucker. Complexion, yes. Co captain of the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team Buzzwords motherfucker. Alex Morgan. Yeah, I know that because she's a fucking badass. I was hoping one of you would get it. I don't follow sports. Superman's nemesis busboy's motherfucker, Lex Luthor.
Don't watch any marvel over the next one. Yes. Are you ready? I don't know any of these.
I don't want any kind of superhero or watch soccer.
So a house divided into two apartments with a separate entrance for each.
I'm giving her a second. I know the answer. I don't know about Motherfucker Complex. Know what? Oh, wait. Do I get a second chance? I'll give you a second chance. Duplex? Yes. The fuck is that so? Have you seen my mom's house? No. OK, well, it's basically it could be like a line of houses. The way my mom's a set up, it's just like a line of houses and they're all connected and separated by a garage. OK, so it's like apartments. Yes, they technically are, but they're connected rather and like a housing style rather than an apartment style, a disorder that involves difficulty in learning to read or interpret.
Suppose motherfucker dyslexia. Yes, I go. The inventor of the telephone, Buzz Buzz Alexander Graham Bell, founder of Nabisco, the manufacturer of cookies and snacks.
Nothing.
No, we were looking for Alexander Graham.
Just fuck. I feel like you should know me well enough to guess that no, no, she should I should definitely take an action as performed as a response to a stimulus and without just all those books.
Yes. The vocabulary of a person, language or branch of knowledge. The vocabulary. Yeah. Read it again. The vocabulary of a person, language or branch of knowledge. I guess. Is Lexicon the name of this game? Oh, OK. Let's see one. Emily same. I feel like it's not a question. Molly's point. Molly wins. That's bullshit. What is that. What did I get? I don't know. The game's called Molly wins. I feel like this happened last time and that's all.
You'll be a dick. Please get out of my house.
All of the points since you're all good enough to say a motherfucker, you double points on me because that changes it because we both said bus bus each time and we got 14 to Molly.
Six, not even 50 percent.
Well, hey, I'm just impressed you guys had an answer. Why don't you have an answer? At least most of them. That's true. They'll just point. You didn't get Alexander Graham Cracker.
That's OK. You can wallow in your sorrow.
Do we have an urban dictionary category three today?
Oh, God, how many involve poop involves poop.
Please, I'm going to start with that one. No, I want that to be my last one because it's actually not in English.
What if I did go for it? OK, so it is called Dragon Butter.
The look in your eyes is scaring me. I don't want to know. Great. Both of you are ready and want to know.
I don't think that's what was said. I don't know. Could go on. She has to compose yourself first.
The taste of anus and semen in the mouth after giving a rim job and a blowjob and dragging butter.
Is there an order specified?
No, absolutely not. I mean, the other definition was worse. The second definition is the mix of period blood and semen.
Oh, I said, OK, are you ready for number four today?
Does that come out with the same color as those stats on those hostas? Pink snowballs? Yes.
Red Pancake. Oh, that sounds good.
I know blue waffle isn't something you Google, I'm afraid it's going to be something very similar.
Actually, yes, well, we're just going to leave it at that. It's very similar to a blue.
I don't think you can make a vaginal infection or battering of a vagina. It's already like bloody infected.
Thank you, Finn.
And adding some much needed sound effects to the podcast.
Ok, this one's probably my favorite, the non English. Can you specify the language in Spanish? OK. OK, so just the word is in Spanish and the definition is an English. Mikiko and Su Madre or Kaho. I haven't taken Spanish since I was a kid. That's like the professional form of you, isn't it. Yes. Cogo Ciego, which is a car. How does the Jamaican sound in Spanish. I can remember all they say. Che de fe. Hey yeah. Yeah Kaho. I mean come on your mom now. OK, good. An insult in Spanish popular in Miami which translates into I shit on your mother. This sometimes extended into Cognos Carajo Me Kaho in Sumatra which loosely translated fucking hell I shit on your mother and I'm just going to put this out here. I am sorry if I did not say any of that right. I guess it has been many years since I have taken Spanish and so my translation is a little bad. So please excuse me from that.
I don't think you're properly respecting the culture and you probably can't or you can fuck right off.
I think that's going to wrap up this week's show. As usual. Please give us a star rating or review on whatever app you're listening to us on.
