Hey, everyone, welcome to My Kajiggers with Dan and Emily, just a couple of great friends trying to crack each other up and hopefully put a smile on your face. I'm Dan, and with me today is my amazing co-host, Emily.

Hey, guys. What's going on? What's up? Not much. It's it's been a while.

Little bit. What's new with you? And a whole lot of nothing. Just working the working life. Same here. Anything going on with your pets?

One sounds like she's dying. And sorry to you all that are listening today because my dog just got fixed and so she's home and coming down from her drugs and she's just sad and she's a bit whiny.

My cat was loving it last night because he was an only child for 24 hours. He misses those days as a little bit, I think.

So when you got her, did he start acting out like an older sibling, like a human sibling?

Kind of. That's kind of like when the humping got worse is the dominating thing is I don't think we've discussed Bronx problem with cats yet. OK, so my cat, he is five years old. We got him fixed when he was, you know, the typical three month stage. And it was never really a problem before. Like when we were before my boyfriend, I live together. He stayed with him when he lived with his mom. And so, like, the only time Bronx would really do is if you're wearing, like a thick sweater or something, you're playing with him. And he would bite your wrist area and then, like, crawl over your arm or leg. It was weird. And like that was really the extent of it. Well, fast forward now starting though, it's kind of been a problem since we got her. And she's too and not only got eight weeks old, but just really in the last few months, it was my sweatpants, my sweaters, anything that is my clothes now my boyfriend's my clothes.

And it's ridiculous. But we're what we're talking about with the sweat pants is we were cooking dinner one night and we just heard Bronx make this weird noise. And sorry, I'm not expert at cat songs, but it was more like a moral sound. You're welcome. And we look over and this bitch got my sweatpants, my thick black sweat pants off of my bedroom floor, drugged them out to the dining room and just started going to town on them as we watched them make eye contact.

Yes, he said straight at us, like, fuck you guys. It was the craziest thing.

Yeah, definitely making a statement with that one.

There she is.

Yeah. My poor baby girl.

Hopefully he doesn't decide to be, like, full on toddler and just start drawing in crayon on the walls while you're gone. Don't tempt him. If he does, you need to Instagram that shit, right? The cat that uses crayons when that will be the most useful he's ever been.

Yeah. He really is going to use useless sometimes.

But I love him and he's cool cat. So anything going on in the world that you're excited about.

Oh ho hum. Just released today. Use your words. I can't.

So several of my favorite bands today I saw this Green Day for a boy and Weezer are going on a fucking tour and I am beyond ecstatic about it.

At least one of those bands I know is not fake. You should know that all three of them are not fake. I know all three of us know.

I saw that one has been making music since you were probably two.

But yeah, I saw that on Facebook and immediately I was like Emily. And then I saw you commented on like three or four related posts about, well, I tagged one of my friends and I, and then we started a tag.

And then right after I tied my best friend on it, my cousin tied me in it.

But yeah. So you're really excited about that? Yeah. How soon was that?

Uh, next August. Well, the Green Day alone is touring in Europe and then in June, July and August is June. Sorry, June is when they're in Europe and then July and August is when they're on tour with Followable and Weezer that they announced like where they're going to come. And just, you know, that makes me outside of Chicago.

But I know Chicago sucks Road does well. They kind of have to make a pit stop in Chicago because that's followable. Hometown, they are from Chicago and no, I'm going to take a mini vacation, I think, to Texas where the friend is that I tagged, and we're going to drive to Arlington, which is only 40 minutes from her house.

Yeah.

Tell you what I'm really excited about. Yes, I know you're excited about this, too. The latest trailer is the final trailer probably for Jack Ryan. November 1st. I can't wait. The first they actually put a date to it. I think it's November 1st this year, November 1st or November 11th. It's it's close. I can't wait. Here's the thing about Jack Ryan. I've always liked the idea of the character. When when I was growing up, it was Hunt for Red October and then the Harrison Ford movies, Patriot Games. Pretty good, but they're kind of boring. I like the idea of a just an analyst who has to be an operative is interesting. And then an application in the movies, they're not that great. They may be Chris Pine movie. That was pretty. Yeah, I like that. I thought I was going to keep going with that series. But John Krasinski, who makes that character like he does a very good job at being that character, I feel like the TV series format is much more suited to that character because it gives them the opportunity to do the action bits, but also like the slower, like parts where he's actually shown being smart and analyzing stuff like it's his job.

I'm sorry, I'm listening to what you're saying, but will you describe to listeners these rigged boxes that you made?

Ok, so, you know, we're just, you know, a little amateur set up trying to not echo over each other or get too much of Skadi whining. So I made these little portable recording boosts, I guess you could call them. They're basically just like one foot by one foot fabric stores, cubes, and they just have acoustic foam inside of them. They seem to be working pretty well. Yeah. Makes it a little harder to see each other. So instead of getting full facial reactions, we're just looking at each other over these cubes and we're like Mr. Wilson and home improvement.

Yes. So, like, I don't know if you heard me chuckle to myself because I'm looking at Dan like I'm trying to be good and, like, make eye contact and I just see him talking. But like, when he's talking his you know, your body moves when you talk sometimes and it's just like barely over the tip of the nose. And it's it's pretty good.

It seems to be working, though. Looks like we're getting some good audio. But yeah, I'm so excited for Jack Ryan and super excited that Noomi Rapace is in it. You know who she is.

Maybe if I saw her face, I'm better at faces and names.

She was in the original Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which I love. I love both versions, Swedish and American. But she owns that role and she hasn't been in nearly enough American films. So I just like books. OK, I'm really sad when he's not James Bond anymore. I think it's still going to be a while. I mean, they're still going over at least the last one, but we'll save that conversation for another time. What else you got that you're excited about? I'm learning a new language where you learn German. I tried to learn German. It was difficult. It really isn't, though. Maybe it's just what I was using. But it was I guess there's feminine and masculine versions of words that you have to change that. That was confusing me.

Um, well, I'm actually non spon, but using the app Duolingo, I've used that and it breaks it down really well.

I took Spanish in high school and it came kind of easy, but like conjugating was so hard for me.

But I'm learning basically all that I've learned is I am a boy. I am a girl. I am a man. I am a woman. Water and bread.

I'm sorry. All I'm thinking about now is he was a boy. She was a girl.

Can make it more obvious.

Oh, that's another kind of running joke between Al and I like I have very eclectic music tastes and my phone music will go from lots of rap to like Frank Sinatra and then just randomly like lots of Avril Lavigne for no real reason.

You have an obsession with her. I say I had a crush on her in high school. OK, I think everybody did.

Did we get to what else you were excited about? Oh, you're learning German.

I'm learning German, yes. And I have also real reason, not just because, um, I have a friend that took it in college and English is a Germanic language anyways.

And so it's very similar. And so it does come easy. But I've also decided to set myself up to learn Czech because I am Czech in my heritage. And so I think it'd be really cool to learn that. Well, I don't know if there's a difference between the Czech language and Slovak because my great grandma is. Well, when the country was. As Czechoslovakia, her parents don't speak English, they spoke Slovak and that's what they called it then. So I don't know if they're there's not really much of a difference. They just say a few things differently and how they say certain things. So I could use to my advantage.

Yeah, I keep thing about learning another language. Few years ago I was trying to learn Swedish, but it's so time consuming and the geek in me wants to learn Klingon.

Oh, and then can I just tell you that they have that on there.

I know every time I think you know, or be like a super Star Trek fan and learn Klingon, then I think it takes so much time to learn a language. Why would I use that time learning a fake language when I could learn something that might at least be useful and possibly help me get a job?

Yeah, like I said, I'm just doing it for fun.

And German is the closest I can get to English, so I might have to start learning German and Duolingo too, just so we can yell at each other in angry German accents.

I was sitting there thinking the other day because I can yell at people that you are being a child.

I used to know how to say your mother has a flat forehead.

A up is the only clear I ever learned.

But like, what's fun about German is that you sound so angry and, you know, that's what I love about it.

I might just stop at, you know, I'm a boy and just angrily shout that at people the way it is.

I mean, I'm young.

I'll have to remember that and just angrily yell at people.

I'll be an old man in a nursing home waving my can I have an on. And I think when I'm young.

Ok, now there's just a couple more things I'm excited about. It just came out. Yes. Like kills me that I have to wait a few more days just to have the time to see it. Chapter two. But it's super exciting.

Speaking of it, I found it in the final bit. And found what?

Oh, the original. Original what? I'm going to kill you.

Kidding. Don't take that to people, but you might get punished later.

The last thing I'm excited about. Have you seen anything about this new game that just came up grateful?

No. I thought you were going to say something about, you know, until dawn. Yeah. The creators of that put out a new game and I was watching some game of it.

And it is creepy. Now, this game grateful I'm talking about. It looks cool. It looks kind of like your standard fantasy RPG like Skyrim, maybe a little bit like The Witcher, but like with a black flag filter on it, like it's got pirates swordplay to it, but it still has magic attacks. Oh, had apparently you have to use like diplomacy and stuff and it looks pretty cool. I have no time to play it though.

Speaking of which, sidetracking on that one, the TV show is coming out pretty soon on Netflix.

I'm sure I have to get Netflix again. Here's how I handle all the streaming services. I don't subscribe well, I don't subscribe to all of them. At one time I watch what I want to watch, binge it and then when I'm done or something is coming out on a different service, I cancel one existing service. Like right now I'll have to cancel Hulu and then I'll switch to Netflix for a while. And usually I get like a free month when I do it. Most recently I. I subscribe to Netflix for only a month when Stranger Things three came out and I got that money for free and then I canceled and I don't have to pay anything to watch stranger things. Three, that's how you do it, folks.

But yeah, that's, you know, just out of random Netflix, owners are going to like hear this and like this guy over Netflix stock is just going to tank.

We don't know why somebody just let out our secret. Like, you can get a free month and then cancel.

Did that with Audible once I had a long audible membership and I wasn't using it. So I decided to cancel.

And they did that thing where if you don't cancel now will give you a free month. And so I took the free month and cancelled at the end of that free month and then they tried it again. If you don't cancel now, we'll give you like two free credits for audio books.

You know, it kind of sucks. Like, I pay all that money to subscribe to Amazon for a year and you have to pay for audible.

Yeah, it does that. I feel like that should be included with Prime. But when I used those two credits, I downloaded that audio book and then I still cancel my dick. Move. Hey, they didn't say couldn't you write back? They said. They're mine to keep whether I kept the service or not, and I didn't keep I was one of those things I keep signing up for and then realizing, oh, yeah, this is why I canceled it the last time, because I never have time to listen to these audio. All right. You want to move on to news?

Yeah, I've got some really interesting ones. My first one that I have written down is NFL season just kicked off, you know, and so the first game to kick off the night was Packers and Bears. And I guess during that game, whichever station it was on, I can't remember their microphones picked up to people. They don't know who if it was like players or if it was somebody in the crowd go, I've never had a finger in my butt before.

That was they caught that on audio.

Did that go out like broadcast TV? Yes, it's amazing.

I've never had a finger in my mouth before.

I'm going to need that for that.

That's going in the intro to the show from now on.

Just going to be the star of the show is going to be a clip of him saying, I've never had a finger in my butt before.

No, I have not.

But no one out there yet.

Um, so have you did you see that tool put out a new album? No.

So all you like nineties fans out there, tools back bitches. And they released an album on the thirty first of August and and their first week they dethroned Taylor Swift for number one spot within days.

And so people who are like Taylor Swift fans, you know, there are a bunch of like teenagers, they we're talking about this new new quote unquote, new band tool taking over the number one spot.

Tool's been around for about 20 years.

Oh, that reminds me of what was a Kanye that year or two ago, had some song with Paul McCartney and people like have you heard this new guy, Paul McCartney, that happened with just recently as well, Ozzy Osborne and Post Malone put a song out with somebody else.

I don't know rappers. Oh, Travis Scott. That's who it is. And people don't know who Ozzy Osborne is.

And Ozzy has been around for 80, 40 years solo and Black Sabbath.

So some people are just completely clueless. Yeah, OK, how about this one headline reads, After hours long standoff at West Point Home, police determined individual, not whole. So in in Utah, there was a stabbing, but they knew who did it. So the police showed up with a SWAT team to the guy's house to, you know, just bring him into custody, like dangerous. We'll just take care of this right now. Swarm his house. But they didn't want to rush in, so they wait outside of his house trying to negotiate with him. And eventually, like, you know, I don't think he's home. It would be funny if that guy was on his way home. He was like, man, there's a lot of cops around in my house.

I'm just going to turn around or, you know, it's like one of those, like, comedy things where the guy walks out behind, like the TV, like times really like, hey, man, what's going on here?

Yeah, that would be great. Yeah. Another one. Yeah, I do this one. I love the ingenuity of this guy. And it also tells me that in Japan they do not have very stringent checks on work references. Here's a headline. Convenience store worker reportedly kept robbing shops on his first day on the job. So this guy in Japan has allegedly stolen almost one hundred thousand dollars by starting jobs, stealing as much money from the register customers and safe as he possibly can on the first day and then quitting, he's done it at least 30 times. And he was able to steal twelve thousand dollars in one shift. Are you serious? How do you hire someone and immediately give them access to that much money?

Yeah, that blows my mind, too, because knowing I mean, I haven't had many jobs, but especially with the job that I have now. I sat and watched people for a straight week.

The fact that he's gained access to company saves on the first day. And how's he getting hired? Yeah, he applies for a job. Like do you have any references? I'd rather you didn't call anybody. I kind of left on bad terms. How bad? Well, I emptied out every cash drawer and safe in the business before I left. Oh, and that was my first day.

All right. You're hired.

He got anything else since we were talking about in Chapter two, did you hear that parents were getting pissed because. Well, this article says a billboard was deemed too scary for their children. And I'm like, it's a scary movie. There has been one remake and an original made in the 70s, the 70s and 80s, like late 80s, early 80s.

And you're just now determining that it's too scary for audiences.

Is it like you said, it was a billboard that they were noticing.

Parents in Brisbane, Australia, filed complaints about the Blockbuster Whores ad campaign throughout the city. The ad campaign features billboards throughout the town showing Pennywise and this mom decided to file a complaint that it was too scary for people and children. If you want to see it, here's the picture.

And it's literally the movie poster that's not very literally the movie poster of the penny wise smile.

And that's not very scary. If it was scary, I would see the point. We're going to have to put that picture in the show so people can see how stupid this complaint is. But I remember when I was a kid, I've never seen any of that child's play movies. Chucky has always freaked me out. And I remember I remember being terrified of just the TV commercials. So I get it like there should be limits on what can be advertised. But that is literally just a picture of penny wise, his face and the fact that that is the like.

Ok, so the movie poster for the first one was George Standing. You see the back of George with the balloon?

Well, the movie poster for Chapter two is it's a white canvas and it's both Gagas eyes and it's the smile and like, you know, curls all the way up his face almost. And it's just him smiling little blood coming out of his mouth. But like, it's just just it's not even like his entire head. It's a white canvas with some eyes in the mouth.

Yeah, that's pretty ridiculous. Yeah, I have one more. So do I. OK, you go.

Ok, so I don't know how many people are familiar with this and I don't know if you're familiar. Do you know the ceramic porcelain statues. Precious moments.

Yes. Have you ever been to the Precious Moments Museum. That sounds terrifying. It's not.

But, um, so there is an artist out there who redesigns them into scary dolls, OK?

And they're really cool. Like I'm looking at a mummy right now and they turn a nun into a devil. A zombie like these are really cool looking, but they're also a little fucked up because like precious moments are little children and child like angels and stuff. Yeah. Here, I'll just show you this one. We'll put the link in the description. But these are children with a troll head like, OK, let me describe this to people.

It's imagine, you know, your typical, like, precious moments children. But their faces are grotesque. They look super old and like zombified. And between them, they're holding a decapitated head.

And for whoever is wanting to buy it, it looks like the seller has a four eighty dollars.

I'm tempted to buy that for eighty dollars.

Props to this Instagram account name is called Precious Mutator, if you guys want to look them up.

I had a very religious upbringing. Yeah. And every few years we'd be driving through Missouri and I forget where it is. It might be Springfield, Missouri. They have this precious moments attraction. And as a kid, I remember just being mesmerized by it because they would have, as far as I remember, life size. Oh, versions of like precious moments, angels and stuff.

I know it'd just be fun to just push them over and just watch them break, but that's just the child in me.

I'm pretty sure they were like Resine. But and I think they even had like an island and my. A little precious moment guy like in a boat going out town or something, I have very fond memories of, even though I'm not that religious anymore. You know, I I remember going there and thinking I was cool.

All I can think about as a bull in a china shop.

How fun. Zombieland. Yes. Seeing where they go into the gift shop and they're just destroying shit. Yes. Amazing. My last story headline is Alabama School Removes Bathroom Stall Doors to Stop Students from Vaping. Apparently the only solution, they have to stop these kids from vaping, even though kids have been smoking in high school for God knows how long is taking the doors off the stalls. Only in the boys rooms, though, because apparently women don't vape at all. But can you imagine like one?

I want to know. OK, I understand everybody poops, but I'm just surprised that there is bathrooms down towards employees bathrooms anyways.

Ok, imagine how awkward that would be. Like just trying to take a dump and somebody walks and you're like subdued.

It makes me think of there is a oh it's it's either a family guy or it's a Cleveland show and there's no bathroom stalls on the door.

Oh, it's a family guy because Chris Griffin becomes the bathroom stall door where people are taking a dump.

Oh, he was just he was standing there in the bath boy's bathroom and just happened to be blocking the door. And, you know, like popular kids, we're talking about like, hey, fatty, get out all the way. And they're like, oh, wait, no, come back here. And then they just go in and do their dump. And he's like, Hey, man, things.

I walk into the bathroom, there's no doors. I walk back out, like, I'll just shit my pants.

It'd be more it'd be less awkward to walk around with brown shit stains, no contact with somebody while I'm taking a dump.

You treat it like a urinal and you just go to the toilet and just shit on the floor. And that's what it sounds like. It's going to happen.

All right. You got any serious news to talk about?

I do. And hopefully you got some to. Right. So I want to take a moment here and talk about something I think is kind of not only being a woman, but like kind of something that needs to be talked about by everybody. And that is pay gap in not only professional sport, but I think in everyday life, too. But what's really been in the headlines lately has been sports.

And just seeing especially what brought it to light was the women just and the women's soccer team just dominating the competition and knowing that their difference in pay from the men who just sucked this year, that the men were getting paid almost double or triple and just pay for losing.

But the women who slaughtered the competition were getting shit.

They're getting paid, but compared to their male counterparts, wasn't even close to what they were making.

While you give your opinion, because I definitely have opinions, but obviously you're the woman in the room. So you you have more of a direct view of it or I'm just kind of like an outsider looking at it.

Yeah.

So I've played sports, but I'll never get to professional level, but also being a woman in the working society, knowing I won't ever probably make as much as somebody who I'm probably working with, especially in my line of business.

And I don't want to like, go in depth about what I probably shouldn't.

And I mean, I am I guess you would call low man on totem pole because it is a I would be considered a new employee still, even though I've been there a year and a half.

But if you would take somebody that is in a higher up position, they probably aren't making as much as somebody that is higher than them or even in the same position. But going back to like the sports especially, it's kind of sad to see somebody who works just as hard and putting in just as many hours to make it to the top profession there and knowing that they're not getting paid like they should compared to the men's team, especially knowing how many World Cups they have won, especially in a row and still not making the money they should be.

And I wish I could get figures right now because I would make it a lot better. Professional. Yeah, no, but seeing how many women there are who are just prevailing what they do and not getting the compensation like the Williams sisters they have.

Major titles, and they have been playing for a very long time, but even they're still in the gap to some of the men that also play tennis. I have to see it. They're still making money off of this. But knowing the difference between the two is still at an extreme, because what is it that for every dollar that a male makes, it's what makes sense.

And I can't personally, I can't complain too much because getting the world is a little touchy here is I'm a white working woman.

But knowing that the but there again, I'm still a woman not getting paid as much as probably a counterpart, but also people who are of color, especially in sports, are still not making what a white man is making, which is strange because not to be like any racial about it.

Yeah. When you think of like usually the people that are at the peak of sports. Yeah. I don't generally think of white people as the most athletic. Oh yeah. I mean I when I was a kid the sports superstar was Michael Jordan. Oh yeah. I remember him doing commercials with Larry Bird. Who's that. Michael Jordan was this huge star and yeah, I just kind of went on a weird tangent there, but yeah.

No, I know what you mean by that, but like I don't think it's fair, especially in twenty nineteen, that we have to fight for that.

Well and you would think, especially in sports, it would be the best quality, the best athletes are getting the highest pay. No. And I mean it should be anyway. Yeah but it's OK if I weigh in here on just the general pay gap thing. Yeah. Being a man, it's hard for me to see these things, just like any time people talk about systemic racism, you know, I'm a white male, so obviously I'm not like super not like you're not looking at it like some other I, I don't necessarily notice the inequity because I don't experience it. Yeah. At the same time, equal pay and equal work. It's such a hard thing for me to wrap my mind around measuring because even if you have two people, it doesn't matter who color or gender, whatever any two people to measure what is what exactly is equal work. Yeah. And like equal pay, like there's so many different variables to take into account. Like, did they start at the same time? Are they both producing the exact same amount of widgets and can they both do it just as quickly. Well, I want to see and this is very idealistic is and naive to me. It shouldn't matter what it should be blind to your color, gender, the best worker who's been there the longest, like as you just be this mathematical formula, like you've been here X amount of time and you're putting out the work. You should be getting the pay. It shouldn't matter.

And that also kind of to me works in the way like even if somebody has been there longer, if they're if you are trying to put in the work and I understand like the seniority rule that I believe in that, too. But if you're going to put the work in but I also kind of see the like I do understand that I am built different then maybe a man like I know I'm not as strong as somebody who is my age and size, like I'm not a strong person. And so like that, like manual labor, I can understand. But like, I'm a very hands like I like hands on like I work with computers all day and maybe somebody in that setting, if they're going to put in that amount of time and effort working and whatever kind of businesses like tech, if you're going to put in just as much, just as much, I think there should be some leeway there, like, oh, you can do this. Like you're saying like you can do this in this amount of time. Then, like, I want to see you prevail. And I mean, yeah.

And when we work together, it's very obvious, you know, there's there was a physical side to the job and then there was a technical side to the job. Yeah. That involved, you know, having to really know computers. And I would wager, you know, at times you knew more on the computer side than me, but I might have had to work harder on a given day. Just physically. How do you determine which of those is worth more money? Yeah, I like both of the. Those have value, it's so hard and to relate this back to the sports thing and even broader entertainment, like you see the pay gap in actors and stuff. Oh, yeah. But it's also, I think, especially actors. And in the sports world, there's also that added variable of how much draw do you have? Mm hmm. And I would say the women that just won the World Cup right now, they're probably a bigger draw than the men in soccer. Still not. It's not as popular as a sport. Yeah, it's got a lot of fans in the US, but it's not one of the most popular sports. So I could see, like football. I can see a pay difference between the women's soccer players and the NFL players. Oh, yeah. And the same way acting there was a couple years ago, the movie where who was it? I wanna say it was Mark Wahlberg and Michelle Williams, I believe were in the movie together. And he got paid. I think he did less work, but got paid so much more than her because as Mark Wahlberg yes, he's a bigger draw. And if I recall correctly, they had the same agent. So if she has a complaint, the person she should be going to should be the person that negotiated the deals for both of them. Yeah. And he negotiated himself a bigger, better pay. Yeah, I don't think that's necessarily wrong. Like, you get the best deal you can for yourself. Yeah. Arguably, like you put his name on a movie poster and her name on a movie poster, he's going to put more butts in seats.

Yeah, that's almost that's sad and good at the same time, like, you know. But if she's not as like Mark Wahlberg has been in this quite long and I can't think of who Michelle Williams is at this moment, but and sometimes that's it right there.

Yeah. Entertainment, sports. Parve, it's not just what you're doing. Yeah. You are the product.

Do you know the movie Crazy Rich Asians.

I'm aware of that. I never saw it.

I haven't seen it either. I know that it turned out brilliant. So the two co creators is a white man and an Asian woman. He got paid. Let's see here. I think it was like a what was it? Because it was a huge difference. Like she found out how much she got paid and I know is over a million dollars just for making it. And she somewhere in like the seven or eight hundreds. And when she found out they were in the works for making a sequel and she dropped out the sequel because she's like, I'm putting just as much of my time and effort into making an Asian movie as you are. And so she dropped out and she's like, if I'm not, this is my movie. If I'm not getting paid to make my movie, especially about her specific culture to them, that's where I see is kind of a little fuck you.

Yeah, I think it still comes down to how they negotiate their deals. They probably didn't negotiate them together. So I say his agent probably negotiated a lot better for him. But yeah, if we said all we have to really say about the pay gap, I think so. OK, here's one. Indian woman gives birth to twins at age 73. How do you feel? Yeah, how do you feel about people having children that old? To me, you could argue, OK, do they come out healthy?

As far as I know, that's incredible that a seven year old woman not only didn't die during labor, but produced hopefully healthy children because of the degeneration rate of a woman after 40.

Yes. And getting pregnant and the risks that they just run as soon as they even in their late thirties, a risk a woman has in getting pregnant at all at that age, let alone 70.

Yeah. How do you feel about people becoming parents at that age? Like, on the one hand they go and die before your ten? Yeah, the obviously if they don't give birth, that child is never going to know life anyway. Yeah, but it feels really selfish to me to knowingly have a child that, you know, you're not going to be around that long for to know that maybe by the time they're a late teenager, they're going to have to take care of you.

Yeah. So in the context of the story, was there any specific reason why she gave birth besides, like, did her and her husband plan on this or was it like, as I know, I can't imagine it was an accident.

I imagine it was probably helped along by medical science.

Yes. As I say, the fact alone that 70 women should already be done and through menopause, just what I can't get over this.

Yeah.

It just feels very selfish to me to know that when your kids are teenagers, they're probably going to be having to, like, change you, change your diapers or dealing with. Yeah. That trauma of burying their parent at an early age.

And I mean even I mean, you can die whenever like, let's just throw that out there.

Like, death is inevitable in any moment in life. But like, if you are fully having a child at 70 and knowing like one, you can die like it's like during childbirth. How many more years are you going to live and how many of those years your child actually going to see you?

Yeah, and there's between parents of any age and children, there's always a generational difference. Like everybody sees the world differently. But when you're talking a difference of two or three generations. Yeah. How can you even be anywhere close to the same? Like, I feel like they're so out of touch with modern culture that, like trying to raise a child into the modern world would be difficult. Plus, you know, your teenage years and the 20s, I don't think enough emphasis put on, like, how much you grow in your 20s. Oh, yeah. And not having that or potentially not having that healthy adult influence on you in your 20s, that's you feel really bad. Any time I see kids like this, it's it's a little better when you see it for like rock stars because at least they have the money to like, help them along.

But still like having has like thirteenth kid at seventy five.

Yeah. And I feel bad for those kids still because you need your parents.

Oh yeah.

And then like I'm like an even sadder now is like people who can't have kids that are just trying so hard to have, they can see that like why at 70 can they have a baby. But I can.

Ok, moving on to something a little lighter.

Yeah, I think that was I think we had a good discussion today. Yeah. You wanna talk about video games? Oh, yeah.

Ok, so we have been playing on talking about our favorite old school video games, getting nostalgic in this bit. Yes, I we didn't really define a cut off for me internally. It was around like PlayStation two games where I got one a little old. Well, I mean, that was the most recent I was willing to consider.

Oh, you go ahead and do all of yours.

All of mine. Yeah. Go ahead and do it. And then I'll do all mine.

My first one is the granddaddy of all the Pokemon games, Pokemon, Red and Blue.

I don't know if because Pokemon Yellow, Pokemon Yellow was just put on red and blue with Pikachu.

You take that back, you know, also is really good is crystal and gold.

See, I never played that red and blue was what I started with and what I ended with because OK, I had a bad I had a bad experience with Pokemon Red and blue. I had both of them and I was trading Pokemon in between because there is exclusive Pokemon to each game. And I finished like the quest and I was just trying to collect them all. It's what you do. You got to collect them all. And my brother came to visit while I was at school and decide, you know what, I'm going to start a new game. You can't have more than one save game on Pokemon Red and Blue. So I came home from school and all my progress was lost. And that was the last I ever played. How shitty. I was devastated. I was probably like seventh or eighth grade, but I was just I didn't know what to do with myself like I do.

I couldn't go back and, like, put in all that time again, see, OK, I also I got my game Gameboy for my brother. And so it was a Gameboy color and it had the magnetic light, not the magnifying light screens. And I had yellow, red, gold and crystal.

I didn't have blue and I don't know why, but I think I still have blue even though I haven't played it. I still have my Gameboy. Well, it's a second Gameboy that I got because my mom I had a peek at you.

It was like purple and green had Pikachu on the front of it and it was a over the shoulder just like carrying case. And my mom sold it.

She said that I gave her permission and I don't ever remember her telling her, yeah, go ahead.

Because they had like yellow is so hard to come by now. Yeah. And like, I had so much progress in that freaking game. And so now I had to buy a whole new light magnifying thing because I still I have another Gameboy now. I got it from an ex-boyfriend if you want to call a boyfriend.

But he just use like I don't play this game. Where do you want to? I'm like, fuck, yeah. I knew I was going to turn down getting a Gameboy, a Gameboy color, so I was just so mad.

That's a special type of heartbreak is losing a savegame. My heart breaks for you. Yeah. Oh, my next one, Super Mario world for Super Nintendo. Yes, I know that game like the back of my hand. I played it for so it Yoshie and wasn't it. Yes. And the thing is, I can go years without playing it. Somebody puts a controller in my hand and tells me to play that I will sit and finish that game and find all the secret worlds and all the hidden items. I just know that game so well. Could you spacially excitable. One of my friends. I listen to this now and he remembers a night that we got a whole group of friends together and we're just going to play that game and like try Fisher over the night. And people just kept dying and dying and going through lives. And we were every time you realize we just switched person out, it got to the point where nobody was switching out with me because they needed me to stay in the game to keep collecting extra lives so I could but bring the second player back to life. That's sad. And it became a running joke that I was like Super Mario Special Forces because I just I was tearing through that game. I just know it so well.

One that seven also like incredible how good you are at that game. Do you still have a Super Nintendo?

No, I had it on the Wii, but I don't have my we anymore. My last one another game. I can't say I know it quite as well, but I put a lot of hours in this game.

Let me let me guess aside. The Saints row three.

No, that's that's a more recent game. I'll I'll narrow it down for you.

Nintendo sixty four Megaman.

No, but Megaman is an honorable mention for me because I put a bonus to the original Megaman for Megaman two for Nintendo and uh sixty four.

Yep. Double 07. Yes. Goldenboy Goldeneye. Sixty four Bronx. Come on. So for those of you listening right now Bronx and what cat has jumped up on the table is in between are two little portable recording booths just rubbing against them.

So if you guys here like any kind of noise coming from one of the microphones, it's probably mine now is just playing with chords.

You it do. Yeah. Bronx of Indic. I know you have a dick on your face but stivic but yes Goolma sixty for that game is so much fun. Singleplayer is amazing. The multiplayer. That's one thing I miss so much. There's obviously online multiplayer these days. Yeah. But I miss the days of sitting on the couch with a few friends and playing all on a split screen and your TV's maybe two feet wide and so you're all squinting to see your section of a screen that's been split into four parts. So much fun.

Ok, see you. A little tease.

Do you remember one flat? Well, I hope you went flat. Screens are becoming like a thing.

And it was literally like instead of like the bubble glass, it was a flat screen, but it still had the big ass on the back.

Yeah, but 30th birthday.

Ok, I'm not that old, but I was like, well, I was like, are you lost in your fuzzy mind, old man?

May we go on now?

That was just I was just talking about one flat screen because, like, we we got our first quote unquote, flat screen when I was maybe ten and it was this massive ass TV.

It had it lasted over ten years, too. It had the big ass back on it. Yes, we have it. Yeah. And it sat on a cabinet and it was flat screen. That TV was fucking awesome.

Do you remember the days of hooking a video game console up to a TV required like adaptors to go from like you had to get from the red, yellow, white cables to the coaxial on the back of an old TV, the Sega Genesis? Yeah. And your parents are just like, OK, you got to figure this out because. I know, but did you ever play Goldeneye?

No, I didn't. And we didn't own that one.

I still own it. And I will play it from time to time, even though it'll make my eyes bleed. How bad the graphics are now. But it's just so amazing. And anybody who's ever played the multiplayer on that game will remember you had to have special rules in your friend group of OK, no looking at each of their screens to see where you're at on the map or nobody gets to be Oddjob because he was about half the height of every other character. So you're just a killer.

You're always had to be aiming downward, uh, going through like hooking up. I like when I started playing video games, you had to hook it to the TV and then it wasn't any input, like pressing the input button. You actually had to find the TV station channel.

Yep. Why don't we talk about your games?

Um, so mine are driver for PC. I loved that game.

I have very limited experience with it, but that was my first experience with anything even approaching Grand Theft Auto. Yes, yeah.

I was probably like eight when my brother had it and so playing it on the dinosaur computer that we had, like the only thing I like and just absolutely remember is like the the one that we had we came out of a parking garage and I slammed through the railing and I do something and immediately get busted. Yeah.

My second one is Mario Party sixty four and they're playing a whole lot Mario party, but I've had some fun Playboy party.

I'm pretty sure there's still holes in my palms from trying to do that. The joys, joys and everything. I know exactly what you're talking about. There was such a car mechanic for the Nintendo sixty four.

My cousin and I literally built callouses to play this game.

I would hold my hand playing some other game on Nintendo 64, like you bust open the Kalis when it was still tender and then you would like I can't.

I'm I'm right handed and so is she. And so doing anything left hand just fucking sucked. Yeah.

My third one and this one is so underrated. Super Mario Brothers two for the Nintendo.

I'm yeah. I like that game too. There's a lot of people that hate it. I don't think I've ever finished to it, but it is so unusual and game. Did you know that started out as a different game. No. The reason that game looks so weird is they just changed like the character animations and that's why it plays differently to like they just put in the Mario characters, like kids like when you jump, it was like their feet would flutter, sort of like, you know, they're just can't. Yeah, it was originally a different game and they just switched it up and put Mario in there like Bril, just an easy fix and like, hey, we got no Mario game.

My new idea, Mario Brothers three. See that one so popular. Yeah, I love that game to death, but Super Mario Brothers too.

I used to love just the mechanics of, you know, there was the bad guys that would shoot the eggs. We had to jump up land on the egg, grab it out of midair and throw it back. Yes, that was fun. It was challenging, but fun.

And I have one unnormal mentioned. I'll mention real quick any sonic for Sega Genesis. Yeah, Sonic one to Sonic and Nuckols Saga. Knuckles was my favorite.

I have very good memories of Sonic. It was so much of like reflex and timing. Yeah.

Like fuck that game up like. No, like that. But like I played psycho knuckles so much I knew like it was like the Super Nintendo Mario. I knew that game like the back of my hand and playing the mini games and it was so much fun.

I don't remember any many games but it was definitely fun. Yeah. For some urban dictionary I am. Oh. Did you make any. I did. I figured yes. We go back and forth and try to guess so.

Urban Dictionary Word of the day is coming up. People get excited.

I have quite a few so I'm going to have to pick here. OK, what does four pixel fox mean.

Is it some kind of porn thing? No, for Pixel Fox, yep. Is there anything to do with Fox, not a little fox now, a woman fox like, yeah, get in there like a woman dressed up as a fox now. So it's just a hot woman?

You would think so, but no. The exact opposite for pixels would look like shit graphics. Yeah. OK, so the definition of a four pixel fox is a foxy lady who looks great from afar but not close up.

Oh, no.

Closer you get like, oh that's good. I saw this on cops no more.

Oh yeah.

Mine's terrible. Oh, I've got a couple terrible ones but I thought that was just funny and tied into a video game.

Talk to you.

What does girth quake mean. Earthquake. Yes.

Not a whiny dog, is it, when a man is so big that it causes like an extra powerful orgasm.

I don't know when the ground shaking from the effect of an obese person walking.

Oh, my God, it's horrible.

I told you. It just made me laugh when I read it. OK, Pikachu you.

I always clicked on this one, too. I'm sure it has nothing to do with Pikachu.

Oh, there's definitely an inspiration behind is somebody saying they're going to get a peek at, you know, oh, I didn't have anything to do with the aesthetic of Pikachu like it has to do with his power.

Does it have to do with the male genitalia? Oh, God, it's not sexual in any way.

Oh thank God. I, I get real fucking weird now.

Has to do with a plug in an extension cord in the outlet and then you go and check out in the detail like that lightning bolt tail right there.

Oh my God. Did you, did you notice Tosh Perrino.

Yes. OK, was that the actual definition?

No, that was just me being ridiculous.

Ok, well, side note, you ashutosh me now. Yeah, well, there is a video that you put up on there because, you know, you just take funny videos. And it was a segment where this guy rapped his dick in tinfoil and stuck it in L.A..

Oh, man, that's man. No. Yeah. So the definition for Pikachu is something that cops should yell when tasing someone has a illustration.

Oh, dude, don't tase me, bro. Cop Pikachu, Pikachu game 50 expe.

Oh, I would. That would make me want to become a cop.

I could be a cop. I would do stupid shit like that. You would abuse your power. Yes, absolutely.

Oh I just want to see it. I really just want to see it play out whether it's a Skadi real life cheese dick.

Oh no. That does not sound appealing or non disgusting in any way. Is that one that's been sliced up into wedges? No, that'll be terrifying as it was. I mean, this is this definition is still terrifying, but that is it when you've used it so much that it looks shredded.

That's right.

That's good, though, but no.

Yeah, I don't know, does involve the smell.

So it's when you don't wash your dick that often and it becomes a breeding ground for smegma.

Oh, no. Uh, yes. Let let me just let me just get this up again.

Have you heard about the women that harvest their own genital bacteria for culturing yogurt? I actually have. That is horrifying to me.

Know. Yeah. So it reads a person who does not wash his penis often and so provides a breeding ground for smegma loving bacteria, hence the cheese.

I think I like my definition better, as horrifying as it is.

Ok, my final one, the Agusta is related to golf.

I hope it's not like putting golf club putts in like places. Now, is it somebody you just can't play golf?

No, it's. You were closer with the first one. Oh, definitely. You know, offensively sexual.

It is something having to do with doing it on a golf course.

Are you getting closer? You give up a little bit, OK, when your girl is giving you a blowjob while you watch the Masters and just before you finish in her mouth, you pull out and yell for and come in her hair. And also, it's terrible that that is I think that perfectly illustrates the Urban Dictionary. That really does. It's so ridiculous and so many of those things like that no one has ever done. And if they did, it was the last time they did it with that person because they got slapped and told to get out.

Ok, so what makes you really have to think about this is these definitions got a name for a reason. So like they had to have happened.

I don't know, I think somebody was just criticizing about it. It's almost like stupid state laws.

So are we ready for my word of the day?

Yes. What? We give it to me and I'll try to guess it, OK?

Ok, so Urban Dictionary Word of the day presented by Emily. Carpet surfing. It is not sexual.

Ok, carpet surfing. Oh, I don't even know where to begin on that especially. It's not sexual. Yeah. You just have to give me that one.

The act of someone surfing the carpet looking for bits of crack cocaine dropped on the floor after a rough night.

Ok, looking for leftovers. I get that one. Yeah, OK.

Uh, yeah, I think on that note. Yeah, on that note, that is a good place to end the episode. Thanks everybody for listening. Tune in for another show. If you liked what you heard. Be sure to subscribe on iTunes or wherever else you find your podcast.
