It's always fun, yeah. But on Tuesday you and I went back to Stockholm. We went to an amusement park.

Speaker 1 6:59

Yes, yes.

Speaker 3 7:01

To watch the Offspring play.

Speaker 1 7:04

Yeah.

Speaker 3 7:05

And we went on some rides and you hated everything.

Speaker 1 7:09

No way.

Speaker 3 7:09

And it rained and you hated that. And then it rained again and you were really hating that. And then we went home. No, no, no you didn't hate the whole thing.

Speaker 1 7:20

I didn't. Why did you come up with that lie? The whole thing I didn't. Why did you come up with that lie?

Speaker 3 7:32

I mean, I wanted to bring a rain poncho, but you said that only idiots brings rain ponchos I'm sorry who's making things up now, because I think that was you, because I never uttered those words ever. I said I'm not going to bring a poncho and I offered to bring a bag so that you could pack a poncho, and then you said forget the bag yeah, since you called me an idiot I never called you an idiot.

Speaker 3 7:59

I said if you want to bring a poncho you can, but I'm not going to because you trusted the app.

Speaker 1 8:04

I also don. You can, but I'm not going to Because you trusted the app.

Speaker 3 8:06

I also don't mind rain that much. I'm not super sensitive to rain.

Speaker 1 8:11

No, neither am I what I'm not.

Speaker 3 8:14

Okay, tell me about the rides then. Did I lie about that too?

Speaker 1 8:18

I mean, I liked the train. Yes, it was good.

Speaker 3 8:22

It was just a train ride in a dark room.

Speaker 1 8:25

It was, like you know, the scary, like a haunted house thing.

Speaker 3 8:30

Yeah.

Speaker 1 8:31

Right, I liked that.

Speaker 2 8:32

Okay.

Speaker 1 8:33

The other ones, I don't know. I liked the first one most. It was the best of the other ones, except for the train ride. The other ones, except for the train ride, I mean I was too scared when we did the flying carpet thing because I knew we were going to go back and forth and I had this big thing between my legs and I'm not talking about what's attached, it was on the right and I was worried that it would crush whatever I have there. Did it? No, it didn't.

Speaker 3 9:16

It wasn't that bad.

Speaker 1 9:18

Well, it's because I sat on the side a little bit so it wouldn't Okay, dig in. Exactly straight on. So yeah, but uh, I was worried, so I did not appreciate that no um, and yeah, it was okay okay it could have been worse I guess so and then we did the octopus. Mm-hmm. I got really dizzy after that, but that was probably. I mean, that was the one. I kept joking the whole ride through. Yeah, yeah, I don't know why, but I did.

Speaker 3 10:02

You were being silly.

Speaker 1 10:04

Yeah, I was, and we also did the indoors thing going round and round.

Speaker 3 10:11

Oh, yeah, another spinning, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 10:16

I mean, I appreciate that it was inside, since it was raining, right yeah, at that time. But yeah, I don't know, maybe not my favorite. And what else did we do? No, those were the ones we did.

Speaker 3 10:31

Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 1 10:33

Yeah, I mean I'm still glad that we did them. Yeah, and yeah, now I can say that I have done them.

Speaker 3 10:46

And you've also seen the Offspring now. Yeah, and so have I it was my first time seeing them too.

Speaker 1 10:52

Yeah, live.

Speaker 3 10:53

I thought they were really good.

Speaker 1 10:54

I thought so too.

Speaker 3 10:56

I enjoyed the show a lot.

Speaker 1 10:57

Yes, they played a lot of their best songs.

Speaker 3 11:03

And it also rained on us, yeah, during the show.

Speaker 1 11:06

Yeah, but that was okay, it was still very good.

Speaker 3 11:10

Yeah.

Speaker 1 11:11

And we sang along Mm-hmm To the songs that I could sing along to Mm-hmm. Otherwise, I just, you know, half-danced with my head, you know? Yeah, I was breakdancing.

Speaker 3 11:27

I don't think so. You weren't. I thought the rain improved the experience though, okay, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 11:36

I liked the.

Speaker 3 11:37

It was just perfect timing.

Speaker 1 11:38

Yeah, I liked the confetti things.

Speaker 3 11:41

Yeah, they shot out confetti.

Speaker 2 11:44

Yeah, so much confetti, yeah, so much confetti.

Speaker 1 11:45

Yeah, very much, and that was fun and also they had the balls.

Speaker 3 11:53

The beach balls.

Speaker 1 11:54

Beach balls During the Get a Job song.

Speaker 3 12:00

Now you've seen two concerts, Two very different concerts. Yeah, Because at Weird Al we were all sitting, and it two very different concerts yeah. Because at Weird Al we were all sitting and it was a lot calmer yeah. So which one did you like better?

Speaker 1 12:12

That's difficult to say. I really liked them both. Yeah, I really don't know. I mean, I like that. We got to meet Weird Al.

Speaker 2 12:23

Yeah.

Speaker 1 12:23

You know, got to meet him in person. We didn't say much, but we actually stood right next to him, mm-hmm, and we have proof of that. Yeah, exactly, and it was funny, it was really funny. And the offspring guys, they were funny too. Mm guys were really. They were funny too and they made us swear.

Speaker 2 12:51

You clung on to that, didn't you?

Speaker 1 12:53

Yeah, no, it's because I know you're not the biggest fan of swearing.

Speaker 3 12:59

I'm not.

Speaker 1 13:00

No, I wouldn't say so.

Speaker 2 13:02

Are you sure about that?

Speaker 1 13:03

Yeah, because how many times have we sworn on this podcast?

Speaker 3 13:09

I feel like I've sworn more often than you have.

Speaker 1 13:13

Okay, and.

Speaker 3 13:14

But it all gets cut.

Speaker 1 13:16

Yeah, that's what I mean so.

Speaker 3 13:20

Because I don't want a giant E on all of them.

Speaker 1 13:23

Why not?

Speaker 3 13:24

Why do we have to swear?

Speaker 1 13:26

Because all podcasts do that. Okay, but that's your decision.

Speaker 3 13:33

I swear a lot more outside.

Speaker 1 13:35

The 69 one was my decision. Well, it was.

Speaker 3 13:40

It was our decision.

Speaker 1 13:41

Yeah, but it was. I think it was my idea. Yeah, but I was, I think it was my idea. Mm-hmm, yeah, but I don't think you swear more than me.

Speaker 3 13:49

You don't, no Okay.

Speaker 1 13:51

Okay, yeah, and I swear I think I use way worse words than you do.

Speaker 2 13:59

Okay.

Speaker 3 13:59

Yeah.

Speaker 2 14:00

All right.

Speaker 1 14:00

Yeah, you have to trust me on that.

Speaker 2 14:03

Okay.

Speaker 1 14:04

Okay.

Speaker 3 14:09

So, and then are we done with the Well? We saw the offspring, and we almost had the same situation as we did when we saw Weird Al.

Speaker 1 14:17

Yeah, it wasn't our fault this time or no it wasn't.

Speaker 3 14:21

It wasn't, no, it wasn't. But when we saw Weird Al, we had the VIP ticket, so we got to meet him and, due to us meeting him and leaving the venue so late, we had missed the bus back to the square of stockholm and, uh, we had to walk there and we uh ended up spending the night on the streets of a nearby city yeah and it was really cold it was really cold. That was number 14, if you want to go back to that one, yeah, the trolley ripped off my lip, yeah, right.

Speaker 3 15:09

Yeah, so we almost had the same situation because we did miss the last train back home. But my life partner, who I don't know if I've mentioned, is absolutely amazing and the greatest person on earth.

Speaker 1 15:26

He came and picked us up at the train station so we didn't have to die on the streets yeah, um, because I mean this is in the middle of the summer but it had rained on us, so we were really cold anyways very cold so but we survived we did?

Speaker 3 15:48

we got home?

Speaker 1 15:49

yeah, we slept yes and uh, also the the problem wasn't ours. Well, it was our problem, but it wasn't our fault this time no, it was the train.

Speaker 3 16:03

one of trains got canceled and then the next one was late. Yeah, and we had bad luck with the trains the entire day.

Speaker 1 16:12

Yeah, and we missed the bus like if it had been five minutes earlier the train?

Speaker 3 16:19

Yeah, we would have made the bus.

Speaker 1 16:21

Yeah, so we saw the bus Just go by, yeah yeah, leaving the station. Yeah, so we saw the bus Just go by, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 16:26

Leaving the station.

Speaker 1 16:27

Yeah, as we got there, so that's our luck.

Speaker 3 16:32

But we did make it home. Yeah, and we did get to sleep and then we woke up and we had a kind of movie day.

Speaker 1 16:40

Yeah, movie day, I would say so. We watched Unfrosted yes day, yeah, movie day, I would say so we watched unfrosted. Yes, the pop-tarts story, yeah, or whatever. Yeah, uh, jerry seinfeld movie, and that movie has so many cameos so many really good comedians yeah and it was really good very funny funny.

Speaker 3 17:03

I enjoyed it the entire thing.

Speaker 1 17:05

Yeah, so silly movie. Yeah, yeah, I like silly movies and yeah, it was perfect.

Speaker 3 17:12

It was perfect. I enjoyed it a lot.

Speaker 1 17:14

Yeah.

Speaker 3 17:15

And we also watched Invisible Target.

Speaker 1 17:18

Yeah.

Speaker 3 17:19

With Jackie Chan's son.

Speaker 1 17:22

JC.

Speaker 3 17:22

Yes, and the other guy who was in New Police Story.

Speaker 1 17:28

Yes, Nicholas Tse Also known as Frank. Yeah, or.

Speaker 3 17:33

Something fun.

Speaker 1 17:34

No, james Yelfon, mm-hmm.

Speaker 3 17:36

Yeah, that guy.

Speaker 1 17:38

Yeah.

Speaker 3 17:38

You know, you know that guy.

Speaker 1 17:40

Yes, and that movie was funnier than I expected it to be. I did not expect it to have any comedy in it whatsoever, but it had a few scenes that were really funny, according to me.

Speaker 3 17:57

Okay.

Speaker 1 17:58

I'm a silly guy, so I don't remember. I like the scene when they got hurt in a fight and they had to, like put some kind of lotion on each other. Oh, my God, oh yeah, and the grandma just walked past the room and looked up.

Speaker 3 18:18

Well, he had already explained to his grandma that he kissed a guy that day, but he was doing CPR on the guy she's like oh okay, yeah, that's fine. Well, guys need to eat too, and yeah, and then he was with the other guys putting lotion on each other, yeah. And she walked in.

Speaker 1 18:40

It's funny yeah like okay yeah and um, but I mean I wished it had more of the jc yeah, in the movie and uh, yeah, um, still, it was still a good movie. But uh, in a good chunk of the movie he's just in a bus.

Speaker 3 19:03

Yeah.

Speaker 1 19:05

And yeah that's. I would have liked to see him more in action, although I thought it was cool that he was in fire for real.

Speaker 3 19:14

Yeah.

Speaker 1 19:15

I'm like, yeah, that's special effects, but then they showed that they were actually filming in fire for real.

Speaker 3 19:25

He was on fire yeah.

Speaker 1 19:27

Great nod to Drunken Master 2.

Speaker 3 19:30

Yeah, it was kind of hard to watch that without comparing to Jackie.

Speaker 1 19:36

Yeah, and he did a very high fall and it looked like him. So I guess he did his very high fall, mm-hmm, and it looked like him, so I guess he did his own stunts. I didn't look into it, but probably. Maybe, yeah, I don't know. Really cool, I like the movie.

Speaker 3 19:50

And today's Thursday. Yeah, that's weird. We don't usually record on Thursdays.

Speaker 1 19:57

No.

Speaker 3 19:57

But we have Midsummer this weekend, so we'll be busy getting drunk and not being here. We'll be in the woods.

Speaker 1 20:05

Yeah.

Speaker 3 20:06

Very, very fun times, but it is June 20th for the next nine minutes.

Speaker 1 20:13

Yeah.

Speaker 3 20:16

And what?

Speaker 1 20:18

I have a question for you.

Speaker 3 20:20

I better be good.

Speaker 1 20:21

Would you like to move on? I would a question for you. I better be good. Would you like to move on?

Speaker 3 20:22

I would like to move on. I want to tell you about the movies we watched tonight.

Speaker 1 20:27

Okay.

Speaker 3 20:27

The first movie we watched was Beverly Hills, cop 2. And then we watched Anchors Away.

Speaker 1 20:38

Yes.

Speaker 3 20:39

Okay, why do I struggle with this title? Beverly Hills, cop 2.

Speaker 1 20:44

Yeah, it just doesn't come out. I mean, have you heard of Beverly Hills?

Speaker 3 20:48

Yes.

Speaker 1 20:49

Have you heard of the word cop? No, what's that? That's it, cup, cup.

Speaker 3 20:55

Cup.

Speaker 1 20:56

Yeah.

Speaker 3 20:56

Beverly Hills Cop 2.

Speaker 1 20:58

Yeah.

Speaker 3 20:58

It's about a cup.

Speaker 1 20:59

Yeah, it's about a cup. Yeah, yeah, you know Hand cups. Yeah, that's an old joke. Yeah, first episode, second, second.

Speaker 2 21:11

Hand cups.

Speaker 1 21:13

Really Second. Yeah, wow, that was like one of the worst ones. No, maybe not, I don't remember, but I remember that I didn't like it when we were recording it?

Speaker 3 21:26

No, no.

Speaker 1 21:26

Okay so.

Speaker 3 21:28

Eddie Murphy. Yes is a cop. He's somewhere in the world, probably in Beverly Hills still.

Speaker 1 21:35

Well, he is in Detroit, he's back in.

Speaker 3 21:37

Detroit.

Speaker 1 21:38

Yeah.

Speaker 3 21:39

And then he goes back to Beverly Hills.

Speaker 1 21:40

Yeah, because Bogomil gets shot.

Speaker 3 21:43

Yeah, and then there's a murderer that they need to catch. So Eddie Murphy fights some bad guys.

Speaker 1 21:56

Yeah, I can tell you paid very close attention to the movie.

Speaker 3 21:59

Oh my god, I do I watched the movie? I just I do. I watched the movie. I just you don't understand.

Speaker 1 22:05

I guess not.

Speaker 3 22:06

No, you don't Because I watched the movie. It's just my memory. It doesn't work, but I did watch the movie. Yeah, something I did. Yes, one thing I've done today yes, at least the one thing that I've done today is watch this movie. And I know there's a lot more that happened, but I just don't remember.

Speaker 1 22:30

I don't function at all Okay, but yeah, I mean he fights some bad guys.

Speaker 3 22:37

I wasn't wrong.

Speaker 1 22:38

No, no, and it's a bad summary.

Speaker 3 22:40

I'm not going gonna tell you everything that happens no, no, okay are you squishing me?

Speaker 1 22:45

no, um, I'm just waiting for you to speak what am I supposed to say? Uh, were you done? I did you like the movie I did like the movie.

Speaker 3 22:55

It was very funny. Yes, yeah, gilbert gottfried.

Speaker 1 22:59

Yeah, was in this movie for like five minutes yes and he's very funny he has a funny cameo in this movie I like him, he's funny yeah, I like that this movie has, like, references to other movies.

Speaker 1 23:15

Okay, so it has a few references to a couple of Stallone movies. Stallone's at that time wife is in this movie. She plays the bad guy or the bad woman and she, like I said, last week Stallone went on to make his own movie instead of Beverly Hills Cop and that movie is called Cobra and she is in that movie too and that movie's poster is on the wall at Billy's house or apartment.

Speaker 3 23:53

And.

Speaker 1 23:53

Rambo and Rambo Rambo 2, the second Rambo movie, which the bad guy from last movie, first, beverly Hills Cop, he's in that movie. So that's also funny and I like that they mentioned Charles Bronson, since the girl in the first movie, beverly Hills Cop, she plays Charles Bronson's daughter in the movie yeah, references. She plays Charles Bronson's daughter in the movie References, okay. So I really like this movie Very, very funny and it has great action, very good action comedy. I love these kinds of movies and Billy is still my favorite character in this franchise.

Speaker 1 24:43

His character developed from the nerdy guy to a weapon crazy guy. He has all the weapons at his home and he has a knife that he pulls out and and they, oh, every time he pulls a weapon, they, uh, they tell him, they say to him that we got to have a talk and uh, yeah, it's funny. Um and uh, what else? And also at the end, when they see the bad guy's weapons and he has this rocket launcher and Tiger says, billy, I don't think you have this one. And Bill is like hmm, and takes it. No, that's right, I don't. Now I do. Yeah, it was fun, I don't know. It's a very funny movie. It's directed by tony scott and he was a good director. I liked him okay. So that's all I had to say about that. I think should we move on to Anchors Away?

Speaker 3 26:00

Yes, please.

Speaker 1 26:01

Yes, okay. This movie is about two sailors. They're in the Navy and they what do they even call, like you know.

Speaker 3 26:10

They're on leave.

Speaker 1 26:11

They're on leave, okay.

Speaker 3 26:13

For a few days.

Speaker 1 26:14

Yes, and they are planning on meeting girls and then they meet a boy. The boy wants to be a, he wants to join the navy and he's too small, he's like nine maybe. Um, oh yeah, the boy who plays a boy in this movie. He's in bevel hills, cop 2. No, no one of us knew about this. No, I just I just saw the name and I was like wait a minute, dean Stockwell, is that the same guy? And it is, and that's kind of funny, funny coincidence.

Speaker 3 26:52

Not planned at all.

Speaker 1 26:53

No, not at all. And yeah, so he lives with his aunt and one of the guys, Gene Kelly, falls in love with her. But the good thing about that is that Frank Sinatra, just at the same time as Gene Kelly, falls in love with the aunt, Frank Sinatra finds a girl that he likes, A different one.

Speaker 1 27:37

Yeah, a waitress, and she was from Brooklyn as well as well so, yeah, very convenient, but yeah, it was kind of funny or strange, I don't know, okay, and um, yeah, it's, it's about that. Really, this movie was very long. It was too long, but I really liked the scene where gene kelly was talking about how he got his medal and it was like he was talking to kids. So he had to make a story up about how he got into like a cartoon world and and he interacted with cartoons like tom and Jerry.

Speaker 3 28:20

He met Tom and Jerry.

Speaker 1 28:22

Yeah, he was dancing with Jerry even, and that was the best scene in the movie for me. Yeah, and a confession, I already saw that scene before.

Speaker 1 28:35

And I was like I want to know what movie that's from. And then I found out that it was from this movie and that's why I added it and I just hoped that the whole movie was like that, but it wasn't. It was. That was like tops 10 minutes of the movie of like a two hour and 20 minutes long. So the other two hours and 10 minutes was about them just getting the girls and yeah, very predictable. And yeah, not a big fan. I like the cartoon scene where he interacted with the cartoons. I like Gene Kelly anyway, but he's a great dancer. So what did you think about this movie?

Speaker 3 29:25

I agree that it was too long. I don't know. Overall I enjoyed it, but it was too long. I enjoyed the dancing, I guess.

Speaker 1 29:35

Yeah, it was good dancing.

Speaker 3 29:36

Yeah, and I don't know what else to say. I mean, wasn't a life-changing movie? No but it was kind of fun to watch and then I just, I don't know, got bored.

Speaker 1 29:49

Yeah, I got too tired for the movie sometimes I wish I just could you know, cut some parts of out of the movie and do it myself. Yeah, to make it more, you know, not as boring.

Speaker 3 30:05

Yeah, but yeah. That's all I have to say about that.

Speaker 1 30:09

Yeah, me too. It was an okay movie. We've seen worse and we have seen better, so yeah. Okay, that's it. How about a break?

Speaker 3 30:18

Would you like to take a break?

Speaker 1 33:58

Yes, all right. I'm pretty sure the listeners are very interested in this as well.

Speaker 3 34:03

They're very impatient. Yes, they have to wait a minute.

Speaker 1 34:06

Yeah.

Speaker 3 34:06

So I can think Jitterbug.

Speaker 1 34:10

Oh, was that a part of Midsommar.

Speaker 3 34:12

Yeah.

Speaker 1 34:13

Okay.

Speaker 3 34:14

So once upon a time there was a little village.

Speaker 2 34:19

Okay.

Speaker 3 34:20

And this little village had some people right, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. And.

Speaker 1 34:26

One of those villages?

Speaker 3 34:27

yeah, they had some people and they enjoyed parties. They like to get together and hang out and stuff that people do when they do that yeah kind of thing and they they celebrated like christmas together and Easter and they felt like that wasn't enough.

Speaker 1 34:52

Okay.

Speaker 3 34:52

They need something more, something in between to really enjoy their summer right.

Speaker 1 34:59

Okay, when in the summer Early or late.

Speaker 3 35:03

They just said summer, they weren't very specific. But they got a visitor, okay, but they got a visitor Okay, okay, from a guy who was just traveling.

Speaker 1 35:13

Okay.

Speaker 3 35:14

And he was just going from village to village and meeting the people and learning their traditions and stuff their cultures. Yeah, and he happened to be the rock. Okay, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 35:25

The rock was happened to be the rock. Okay, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 35:27

The rock was trying to learn these people, in Sweden, of course.

Speaker 1 35:32

Yeah.

Speaker 3 35:33

And so he got to this little village and they were telling him about their sorrows, how sad they were that they couldn't pick a date for this summer party. Sad they were that they couldn't pick a date for this summer party.

Speaker 1 35:52

they were like we don't know if we should celebrate in the early summer or in the late summer. Okay, so were there like people on both sides?

Speaker 3 35:58

yeah, they were fighting yeah, okay and the. It was always equal. You know they would put it to a vote like daily. There would be a daily vote when to have this summer party.

Speaker 1 36:13

Yeah.

Speaker 3 36:14

And it was always half and half.

Speaker 1 36:16

Okay, no, it's too early. No, it's too late.

Speaker 3 36:20

Yeah, so the Rock was like. His name was Stan, right.

Speaker 1 36:26

Oh, yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 36:27

Because that's rock in Swedish. So he said why don't you just do it in the middle of summer, Like right in the middle?

Speaker 1 36:36

Yeah.

Speaker 3 36:36

Because that is the longest day of the year, in Sweden at least.

Speaker 1 36:42

Yeah.

Speaker 3 36:42

Because the sun is up until like midnight Exactly, maybe not midnight, no, but almost 11-ish. Yeah, because the sun is up until like midnight Exactly, maybe not midnight.

Speaker 1 36:47

No, but almost 11-ish, yeah, and it's pretty light in the night too.

Speaker 3 36:53

And then the sun comes back up at three in the morning.

Speaker 1 36:56

Speaker 1 37:16

Yeah, so his name was the Rock, but they called him Stan, right, okay.

Speaker 3 37:22

The potatoes were to represent the rock.

Speaker 1 38:07

Speaker 1 38:48

Yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 38:49

Yeah, but in the years after that the rock didn't really come back, so they had to put up a stick in the ground with the little arms coming out and they danced around that the pole instead.

Speaker 1 39:03

Okay, yeah, to represent the rock.

Speaker 3 39:06

Yeah, yeah, and they put flowers on.

Speaker 1 39:31

Okay.

Speaker 3 39:32

Nothing bad happened.

Speaker 1 39:33

No, can I ask you a question?

Speaker 3 39:35

I don't know, is it personal?

Speaker 1 39:38

Was there like a guy who ate trees and branches?

Speaker 3 39:42

and stuff. No, only an idiot would do that.

Speaker 1 39:46

Okay, I just want to say I did that when I was very drunk.

Speaker 3 39:50

Yeah, you ate trees and then, you made a mess of the trees.

Speaker 1 39:55

Two years in a row. The first year it wasn't that bad. The second year it was worse. This year it's not going to be like that We'll see. We'll see how this year goes yeah it depends on if your daughter is going to feed me trees or not.

Speaker 3 40:12

You're not allowed to eat trees. You're on a strict no-tree diet.

Speaker 1 40:16

Okay, yes, so yeah, did you want to finish your story?

Speaker 3 40:20

Did you have more questions? They also went swimming.

Speaker 1 40:23

Okay. What happened to the rock? Did he sink?

Speaker 3 40:27

No, he screamed.

Speaker 1 40:29

Okay.

Speaker 2 40:31

Then he sank.

Speaker 3 40:33

Okay. He screamed as he was sinking, and that's why he never came back. Oh, okay, poor rock, he always manages to die and then come back for the next one. He's been on adventures.

Speaker 1 40:47

Yeah.

Speaker 3 40:48

All right, anything else?

Speaker 1 40:50

What else, what else, what else, what else, what else happens?

Speaker 2 40:57

What hell did he go?

Speaker 1 40:59

to what the hell? What else happens at these things? I don't remember.

Speaker 3 41:06

You are there.

Speaker 1 41:08

I barely.

Speaker 3 41:09

Anything else.

Speaker 1 41:11

No, I don't think so.

Speaker 3 41:13

Okay.

Speaker 1 41:14

Do you think of anything else?

Speaker 3 41:16

I don't.

Speaker 1 41:18

No.

Speaker 3 41:18

So that's it, that's it, that's it. Would you like to wrap this up?

Speaker 1 41:24

Yeah, let's do that.

Speaker 3 41:26

Next week, no hold on Last week was what I meant to say.

Speaker 1 41:30

Yeah, but.

Speaker 3 41:31

I said this next week. There was a week, it was recent, next week.

Speaker 1 41:38

I meant last week, but I said this week.

Speaker 3 41:40

Okay, in a recent week it could have been this week, it could have been next week or it could have been last week. Yeah, I did ask.

Speaker 1 41:47

One of them.

Speaker 3 41:48

Yeah, I did ask for suggestions for topics to talk about for upcoming episodes, and you're still welcome to give suggestions.

Speaker 1 42:00

Yes.

Speaker 3 42:00

But I got one suggestion from my sister to talk about shrimps.

Speaker 1 42:05

Yes.

Speaker 3 42:05

And we will take that next week. Yeah, so if you're not already, go ahead and start following us so you can learn about shrimp.

Speaker 2 42:15

Yeah.

Speaker 3 42:15

You may learn something, and you also may leave thinking that you learned something and just can't pinpoint what it was exactly.

Speaker 1 42:25

Yeah, probably not. I think that's what it was exactly. Yeah, probably not.

Speaker 3 42:27

I think that's what we've become. Yeah, that's kind of what this has formed into.

Speaker 1 42:32

We trick people.

Speaker 3 42:33

Learning things that. I don't know no one really cares to learn about.

Speaker 1 42:38

No, I mean, that's what it has always been about.

Speaker 3 42:43

I guess. So who knows if you're getting facts or just things I've made up?

Speaker 1 42:49

Yeah, goofy stuff, goofy stuff, goofy stuff, goofy stuff.

Speaker 3 42:52

So that's my advice.

Speaker 1 42:54

Yes.

Speaker 3 42:55

Is to give us suggestions.

Speaker 2 42:57

Hmm.

Speaker 3 42:58

And you will be granted automatically. It's like immediately you will be granted good luck. Yeah, automatically, it's like immediately you will be granted good luck. Yeah, so if there's something that you're looking forward to in life, just give us a suggestion or ask us for advice. Specifically, if there's a test coming up, maybe ask us for the answers yeah, exactly that's what you'll get yeah and you will immediately receive good luck that will last for the next week.

Speaker 1 43:28

Yeah, we can get you that F.

Speaker 3 43:33

Hold on what.

Speaker 1 43:36

That's the grade people are aiming for right.

Speaker 3 43:40

The grade, okay, no.

Speaker 1 43:42
