[00:00:00] We are going to do your cool intro music again this time.
[00:00:13] Well, no, we don't have intro music.
[00:00:15] The little songs you're singing.
[00:00:17] No, that's copyright.
[00:00:18] BAMBAMBAM.
[00:00:21] Now we're just infringing.
[00:00:22] How are we infringing?
[00:00:23] Copyright infringement.
[00:00:24] It's a word I've looked it up.
[00:00:26] You know what?
[00:00:28] Yeah, like yeah.
[00:00:30] Yeah, I looked at you and it was like a lot of my straight up.
[00:00:34] That's why music is together.
[00:00:36] I know.
[00:00:37] What do you know?
[00:00:41] It's like one of those meme songs that got popular on YouTube in the 2017 era.
[00:00:50] Through the intro before you forget.
[00:00:52] Hello and welcome back to Mindless Prattle.
[00:00:54] I'm Ripley, the better one and that's Jordon, the other one.
[00:00:59] We're here to Prattle on Mindless Lee and Kackle in your ears.
[00:01:05] Welcome back.
[00:01:06] It's starting off with a whole mess of things.
[00:01:12] Hey, listen.
[00:01:17] Yeah.
[00:01:18] They know what to come here for.
[00:01:21] I can't talk to you.
[00:01:23] Do you know what to come for?
[00:01:25] Is it here?
[00:01:26] I had a migraine.
[00:01:27] I was like a migraine link.
[00:01:28] My speech gets so messed up as if I needed help with that.
[00:01:32] Yeah.
[00:01:33] But did you want to go first?
[00:01:35] Do you have specific things?
[00:01:37] Because I did make a list this time.
[00:01:39] Oh, you have a list?
[00:01:40] I am very impressed.
[00:01:41] Well, all right.
[00:01:42] I'm very excited that you have a list.
[00:01:44] Let's go with it.
[00:01:45] What's topic number one on your list?
[00:01:46] First thing.
[00:01:47] Did you organize this list?
[00:01:48] And they're like the most exciting to the least exciting?
[00:01:50] No.
[00:01:51] Or is it just this is the order happening?
[00:01:52] These are the things that I want to talk about and I'll
[00:01:54] talk about them whenever it's ordered.
[00:01:55] Good.
[00:01:56] Let's go.
[00:01:57] Okay, first I'd like to complain about the rude guy at work today.
[00:01:59] Okay.
[00:02:00] Okay, listen.
[00:02:01] Today was busiest fuck.
[00:02:02] It's just today we're recording Sunday Sunday, right?
[00:02:05] It was super slow most of the time on Sundays.
[00:02:08] Today was busiest fuck.
[00:02:10] Ran out of this certain type of coffee.
[00:02:13] And we were, we don't brew it after a certain time.
[00:02:16] And this Uber driver comes in and he's here to pick up an order.
[00:02:18] But he places an order while he's there.
[00:02:20] He's like, yeah, I want to get a pour over.
[00:02:23] I told him okay, a pour overtakes like three to five minutes.
[00:02:30] Hey said, yeah, that was fine.
[00:02:31] You looking at me like I'm supposed to, I understand.
[00:02:33] Yeah, three to five minutes is yes.
[00:02:35] That was fine.
[00:02:36] And then the fucker keeps coming back over every two seconds.
[00:02:40] Like staring at me, like looking at me, like I've murdered his cat or something.
[00:02:44] Like just the most aggressive look on his face.
[00:02:47] Like he was so clearly mad.
[00:02:49] And then I said, oh yeah, it's almost done because like he kept looking over.
[00:02:52] And he said, well, I have this order.
[00:02:54] I really have to go.
[00:02:56] Well, why did you?
[00:02:58] Well, there is only a little bit of space in the cup.
[00:03:01] Do you want me to finish it or do you just want it the way it is?
[00:03:03] And he said, I'll just take it like it is.
[00:03:05] And I said, okay, here you go.
[00:03:08] Have a great day.
[00:03:09] So, can't you about it?
[00:03:12] No, don't.
[00:03:13] Don't you want to say that I sounded really nice.
[00:03:15] I was really nice to him.
[00:03:16] Oh, you might have been right now.
[00:03:18] I didn't see you.
[00:03:19] I was just being like neutral because he takes me off so quickly.
[00:03:24] I was like, how are you going to come in here and demand?
[00:03:26] I make you something.
[00:03:27] And when I explain to you it takes some time, you're going to be like, yeah, fine.
[00:03:30] And then get pissed off when it takes the same amount of time that I told you it would take.
[00:03:35] I feel like people do that a lot.
[00:03:39] They don't grasp the concept of you telling them it's going to take a few minutes because it's longer than normal.
[00:03:44] But also, if you're picking up an order to coffee shop for whatever delivery service, why would you place an order?
[00:03:51] If you can't that much about your time.
[00:03:53] Yeah, there's also that too.
[00:03:55] Like the only time I would have done that is if I went in to pick up an order and they're like, oh,
[00:03:59] the order that you're waiting on is going to be like 10 minutes.
[00:04:02] So we're like, okay, well, can I get like a coffee in the meantime?
[00:04:05] And they're like, oh yeah, sure, it'll be like two bucks or whatever.
[00:04:08] He could have chosen literally anything else and I would have come out in like a minute.
[00:04:11] Okay.
[00:04:12] But he wanted that fresh cup of coffee, brood only for him.
[00:04:16] I was.
[00:04:18] Everybody was in a bad mood today.
[00:04:19] I don't know what's going on in the universe, but like people were not acting their best selves.
[00:04:24] And then you just brought that energy to HB?
[00:04:27] No, I was feeling good at HB and then towards the end, I just started getting really overstimulated.
[00:04:32] There was so many fucking people in there today.
[00:04:34] Yeah, it's Sunday in Texas.
[00:04:36] That's why I'm glad you're there.
[00:04:37] And HB.
[00:04:38] Doing it alone with me.
[00:04:39] Oh, that's why you were like, oh, just let me know this morning when you left you're like,
[00:04:43] let me know if you need anything from HB all up, pick it up on the way home.
[00:04:47] And I was like, what kind of need like a bunch of stuff?
[00:04:49] And I was like, mmm, I'll just wait.
[00:04:51] Yeah, I like going with you better.
[00:04:55] Your turn.
[00:04:56] My turn.
[00:04:57] I thought you had something else to do.
[00:04:58] I do.
[00:04:59] I just didn't know if we want to go back and forth.
[00:05:01] This ain't a dictatorship.
[00:05:02] It's fun.
[00:05:03] Yeah, I'm just speaking up.
[00:05:04] Yeah.
[00:05:05] Have you heard of Unit 731 of Japan?
[00:05:08] Of Japan, like, the nose of like a police unit or something?
[00:05:12] No, okay.
[00:05:13] Oh my god.
[00:05:14] So everybody knows about like the Holocaust and like that sort of stuff.
[00:05:17] Well, no, no, no, let's play over here.
[00:05:20] What do you mean that sort of stuff?
[00:05:22] Are you implying that there's more than one Holocaust?
[00:05:25] No, like the things that went on during the Holocaust, like the experimentation.
[00:05:29] Okay.
[00:05:30] Yeah, very much different than the things like that.
[00:05:34] Like tell me why I learned at 26 years old, not in school.
[00:05:39] And we think Japan had the same exact thing going on and it was called Unit 731
[00:05:45] and it was like where they would send all the people they wanted to experiment on.
[00:05:48] And like, like, I need to look up a stats.
[00:05:51] I was going to know the name of it, but I definitely knew like about it.
[00:05:55] Like, they're not like nobody was great during either of the World Wars
[00:06:00] about not torturing people to further the amount of people that they could then kill.
[00:06:05] What Germany was doing was pretty bad.
[00:06:07] This stuff I was pretty bad on the scale of badness.
[00:06:10] Or riffing.
[00:06:11] This is somehow even worse.
[00:06:13] Like, I didn't think like they were testing like biological and chemical weapons on people.
[00:06:17] And it said, so is Germany.
[00:06:20] They would refer to the people that they conducted tests on as logs.
[00:06:25] Yeah.
[00:06:26] They did disease injections, controlled dehydration, biological weapons testing,
[00:06:31] hypobaric pressure chamber testing, vivisection, which is when you cut into somebody who's alive.
[00:06:36] Or you are half of them, half of that list would also still apply to the Germans.
[00:06:41] Yeah. And then one thing that I found out was half of the people that they experimented on came from like
[00:06:46] the children that the soldiers with like rape women that were in these camps.
[00:06:50] And then they would let these children grow up and experiment on their own children.
[00:06:55] What do you mean by let them grow up because are you talking about during World War II?
[00:06:59] Because the war wasn't that long, your experiment on like four or five roles.
[00:07:03] Yeah. So it was in the world.
[00:07:04] They would like experiment on their own babies, like literal.
[00:07:08] Okay. That's okay.
[00:07:09] That's very different from letting them grow up.
[00:07:11] That's very like we're experimenting on infants.
[00:07:14] And then at the end of the World War, they killed literally every single person in these camps to keep it a secret.
[00:07:22] Every single person.
[00:07:23] Yeah. That's what the not so much I do too.
[00:07:26] Like some people, there were like no survivors of this though.
[00:07:30] Like literally, you know, that some people got a lot more efficient than then.
[00:07:34] Oh my god. That's a horrible way to put it.
[00:07:36] No. No. Here's what it is.
[00:07:37] Germany is busy fighting like a two front war with us.
[00:07:41] The and everybody else in Europe and fucking against Russia,
[00:07:45] Japan's on their own little island.
[00:07:47] They got much more time to just kill off people in camps.
[00:07:50] And you know, I found it.
[00:07:51] What I found it much less common.
[00:07:52] The Soviet Union actually tried the Japanese criminals and like held them accountable for these crimes
[00:07:58] and shut down these camps.
[00:07:59] The United States then gave immunity to these scientists and like let them come work for them.
[00:08:04] Same thing with the like German scientists.
[00:08:06] Yeah.
[00:08:07] That's how we have its own like.
[00:08:08] It's so fucked up though, like as I'm saying, like it's not only like the Germans and the Japanese
[00:08:16] that were doing dark shit.
[00:08:17] Like yeah, they were not great at all.
[00:08:20] But there's also like we were like, yeah, you you developed a lot of think ways to kill the Jews.
[00:08:27] But can you make it so that we could use it against Germans?
[00:08:31] And we won't kill you.
[00:08:32] And then all of the scientists were like, yeah, we could do that.
[00:08:35] Like why not?
[00:08:36] I got into like deep into here.
[00:08:42] But yeah.
[00:08:43] And then in 2002 they finally ruled that Japan had committed biological warfare in China and slaughtered people.
[00:08:49] Like it took them that long to admit it.
[00:08:51] Oh yeah, no, it's.
[00:08:52] But I just I was on TikTok scrolling and I just I saw like a quick video pop up about it.
[00:08:57] And I just I deep dived into it.
[00:09:00] Like I had to learn more.
[00:09:03] I like I do like learning history.
[00:09:05] That's why I like watching Bailey Sarian's dark history podcast.
[00:09:08] Yeah, I'm like, God every week, I'm just learning things that I'm like,
[00:09:12] how could I not know about this?
[00:09:15] You know, there's so many like we have.
[00:09:17] I like to watch and what was it?
[00:09:20] What was that animated show?
[00:09:21] I don't know if we talked about it or not.
[00:09:22] It was just called what the fuck 101?
[00:09:24] It was like 101.
[00:09:25] And that show was very informative, but you're like, I don't want to know these things.
[00:09:30] Like it's not great.
[00:09:31] That's why I follow I've leach on Reddit.
[00:09:34] Because sometimes I read something so horrible and like my eyes need a break from that.
[00:09:40] Like they had a there was a guy what is it?
[00:09:43] There was like, oh, a self experimentation was one of them where a doctor and his associate were trying to prove
[00:09:51] that was it cocaine and some like a mixture of cocaine and something else was worked as a what do they call anesthetic?
[00:10:01] So like you can like a localized anesthetic.
[00:10:04] So they would just inject this dude like his assistant, he would be injected in the spine with like cocaine
[00:10:11] and like emphetamines and shit.
[00:10:13] And then to test it, the doctor would just hit him with random objects.
[00:10:19] Like what?
[00:10:20] To see if he could feel it.
[00:10:22] And like in the animated show, like they don't show a lot of it, but they'll show him like he was breaking his bones.
[00:10:28] He was like stomping on his like testicles and the guys like nope I can't feel it at all this is great.
[00:10:34] I feel wonderful.
[00:10:35] Him the next day.
[00:10:36] And then.
[00:10:37] And then they were like and then he later went on to murder the doctor and you're like well yeah.
[00:10:42] Like obviously he would do that.
[00:10:45] That's kind of thing that fucks up your whole life.
[00:10:47] And I one of my favorite there was the whole episodes are like they're all themed.
[00:10:52] Like the first episode is about like parasites and there's some episodes well this one was the self experimentation right.
[00:10:58] I'm like furthering science by testing things on yourself.
[00:11:01] That's how we cured also.
[00:11:02] And yeah, sure.
[00:11:04] But one of the guys where they were they walk in and they're you know all these students are like traumatized it's like the magic school bus but like they just get brought to different points in history to learn like terrible.
[00:11:16] That's what it is.
[00:11:18] And so they get to this dinner party right and they've seen these terrible things like what's this guy going to do.
[00:11:23] What is your experiment?
[00:11:24] And he goes oh it's a we're just sitting down for dinner.
[00:11:27] Would you like to join in there like just dinner he goes yeah, we're just having dinner.
[00:11:30] And so they sit down and they're like okay, we'll have dinner with you.
[00:11:33] And then he opens up a plate and he goes what did you get.
[00:11:37] I think I was over goes I don't know what is what is this and goes it looks like steel wire.
[00:11:44] And what are you having he goes I have glass marbles and so the dude just the scientist he eats these glass marbles.
[00:11:51] He goes why are you eating glass marbles and goes oh hang on and he gets on top of the table.
[00:11:56] And he drops his pants and then he just shits on the table and he goes let's see what's in here and he looks through and he goes oh gravel good.
[00:12:04] And then he gets a notebook and he writes down the time and he goes perfect it takes like 18 hours for gravel to pass through your system.
[00:12:13] And they get in this little argument where the student he's just like but why why would you eat gravel and goes see you know how long it takes to pass through you.
[00:12:22] It was right, but why would you why would you need to know that and he goes in case you ever eat gravel.
[00:12:27] Why are you studying the toddler.
[00:12:30] Thank you going back and forth because but why would you need to know that and goes in case you eat gravel.
[00:12:36] Like this scientist was so mad at him for not understanding why you would eat gravel.
[00:12:40] Yeah, no I'm pretty sure that's how we cure like from the cure to ulcers because they didn't know what caused them.
[00:12:46] They're caused by that h pylori bacteria.
[00:12:49] So this guy infected himself with the h pylori bacteria to prove that that was what caused ulcers and then use that to figure out how to cure them.
[00:12:58] Yeah.
[00:13:01] That's alright.
[00:13:03] Not my first choice but.
[00:13:05] I'm all for it but have fun with that.
[00:13:08] I just remember one of the other guys in that episode he was trying to prove that tuberculosis didn't spread through.
[00:13:16] Was it didn't spread through the air and it wasn't like communicative right.
[00:13:23] So how how do you guess that he went about proving that tuberculosis was not spread through.
[00:13:31] He didn't tell me he didn't like eat and drink things from people with tuberculosis.
[00:13:36] So people had people were dying of tuberculosis and he that's nature kids please would go around and drink and eat the bodily fluids of people that head to
[00:13:50] say including their vomit and blood and their diarrhea.
[00:13:59] Boy it was a fun time and that's how they proved that tuberculosis didn't spread through bodily fluids.
[00:14:11] And alright what a fun what a fun time.
[00:14:16] So what I'm going to do is have you seen that start new value got a really big update.
[00:14:21] Got a big update no I haven't been following started value for a while.
[00:14:26] Okay so I actually do want to start a new game because they added a new farm type where you start out with chickens.
[00:14:31] Okay so like you got a coupe automatically.
[00:14:34] Why?
[00:14:36] I don't know just just a new farm type.
[00:14:39] It's the metal lands farm a grass and animal focused design for animal ranchers.
[00:14:46] It grows a special blue grass that animals love and will raise animal hearts faster improving the eggs and milk they give you but there is less farming land to be a little.
[00:14:56] But I just I think it'd be great.
[00:14:59] There are new crops as well but you can't buy them in like stores.
[00:15:03] You have to like dig them up from like different spots.
[00:15:07] They added new tabs to help show case things.
[00:15:11] And then they've added a lot more content like booksellers new festivals like a new festival and too many festivals.
[00:15:20] I always I think that the festivals should be a button that you can turn on or off in there because there's some days where I'm just like I just want to play the game to fish but you can't walk through town because there's a fucking spring egg festival going on.
[00:15:36] And then it skips the whole day so now you're out of day and you have to go to this fucking festival where you don't get a whole lot done.
[00:15:43] I feel like you should what if your farmers are into social?
[00:15:46] I feel like you should be able to choose at least which one or like as a whole if they're on or off or if you can be like, no I don't want the egg festival but I like the summer festivals so I'll go to that one.
[00:15:56] I think what I really want listen Eric concerned.
[00:16:01] If you ever hear this we need to be able to date the wizard.
[00:16:06] Oh my god.
[00:16:07] We need the wizard.
[00:16:08] We don't we need the wizard.
[00:16:09] Why is he not marriageable?
[00:16:11] Where I have to kid, why can't you just go in and recmarriage is in that game?
[00:16:16] Why can't there is one you can't why can't I just date anybody I want and then marry everyone at once doesn't make any sense.
[00:16:23] It's my little village actually if you date everybody who's dateable you get a cut scene on them.
[00:16:28] And they all show up at like the.
[00:16:31] I was in that.
[00:16:33] But yeah, I just there is a marriage you can break up I think it's a Jody and Kent the soldier guy you can romance Jody while he's gone.
[00:16:41] And then like Mary her and break up the relationship.
[00:16:43] That that knows.
[00:16:45] It's where they named.
[00:16:47] What is that is that like a thing.
[00:16:49] It's a military thing. Yeah.
[00:16:51] I mean, like while you're.
[00:16:54] Like if you like say we're married right and I get employed.
[00:16:58] The common name that is used is oh while you're deployed your girl is back home fucking Jody like that's the term that's used.
[00:17:07] And Jody what does that come for?
[00:17:09] That's just a name that's used right.
[00:17:11] I need to figure out the origin of the top my head but that's just the term that's what it's called.
[00:17:17] Like if you're away for a long time for the military.
[00:17:23] It is not to have originated from the Vietnam War but it is unclear who used it first.
[00:17:29] The fact that started Valley, you can break up a soldier in his girlfriend named Jody.
[00:17:39] I feel like someone knew there's also Jody was Joe the grinder a blue singer who used to crew about a disreputable man who cut out.
[00:17:46] And the raputable man who cuckled prisoners and soldiers by stealing their wives and girlfriends.
[00:17:52] The grinder comes from 19th century slang for sex Jody literally grinds up on and then in your girl.
[00:17:59] By the end of the war his name had been shortened to Jody then Jody which stuck and everybody knew who Jody was.
[00:18:06] Yeah see I was right.
[00:18:07] The more you learn.
[00:18:10] We also we finally watched the new one piece live action.
[00:18:15] What were your thoughts? I liked a lot more than you did I think was at the end of the season.
[00:18:21] I feel like it's not there I think it's something they're fault but they left out a lot of important things that I build on it later and I like.
[00:18:31] I don't get why they're so obsessed with having these really short seasons.
[00:18:35] I think it was more the budget wise because like you all the different locations and things like you have to film on all those different places and costumes and all that that had to cost a ton of money because they're only got what like eightish hours of content out of it but they were in like.
[00:18:52] 15 different villages and different like landscapes and different like people and like a lot of the extras like you can't use them again like all the people that we're stuck in that circus tent.
[00:19:03] You're going to use them again at the restaurant now you need new people.
[00:19:07] Yeah you just change their makeup and outfits and nobody knows.
[00:19:11] I feel like a lot of the budget went towards that but also usually those extras are like not paid like there is just like a volunteer role basically.
[00:19:19] Maybe but you know what I mean though is like there's a lot of logistical parts of it that probably took up a majority of it but I feel like they do leave out like a good amount of things.
[00:19:28] They change stuff which is fine you know you're going to change stuff to make it like fit your story better but I feel like if you're going to change stuff that like takes out a lot of the content like and doesn't even have like key characters in there like the you remember the hypnotism guy that's are in the animated.
[00:19:48] Yeah he wasn't in this one but like later on in further seasons he comes back as a marine is pretty important as the marine so like if they never introduced him now are they just going to randomly throw him in later that we're supposed to know him or.
[00:20:01] Yeah I mean they should be pushing buggy pretty hard yeah and buggy was in a lot more episodes than he was ever in in the show.
[00:20:10] But I wonder if it's just because you know they have to fight with some of the what is it called like inconsistencies in the original one piece like animation like you know it's been going on for so long not everything was planned for so maybe they're trying to like fit this story together in the context of like the future story.
[00:20:28] I don't know they also in the show.
[00:20:32] In the live action buggy's they changed buggy's powers like fundamentally changed it in the show he can fly and like you know and by his body parts can all fly around and whatnot as long as his feet stay on the ground but in the live action his feet were flying around too so like that was his one weakness that's how they beat him both times is that grabbed his feet because they were stuck in the back of the game.
[00:20:57] On the ground I kept I completely forgot about that.
[00:21:01] That's how they beat him most like both times that's why I was like what okay it didn't make any sense to me.
[00:21:08] Well whatever.
[00:21:11] Well I really liked it.
[00:21:13] I thought it was good but I think they changed a lot of stuff to like try and set it up for later seasons was just meant like felt like they were like yeah we don't like the way that one piece actually starts out.
[00:21:23] But you know I love my explanation low because I understand like they can't do a one to one you know like it's one piece like so.
[00:21:31] They haven't even gotten to the craziest characters yet and like yeah I don't know how they're going to like do that.
[00:21:37] It's going to be just so much CGI because like there's people in the current seasons that are just their giant birds yeah or there's a guy that's literally made of mochi like what do we have.
[00:21:47] I have a guy yet.
[00:21:49] Like it's they have if you put all the screen time together him and Lou V have a 55 minute fight across like 30 episodes probably I don't know like how you're going to animate that like live action that like that is crazy.
[00:22:02] God I wish there was somewhere where like all the arcs were put together and you could just watch them without like the breaks.
[00:22:08] Oh yeah and like the actual.
[00:22:11] Yeah so like you watch the whole fight or something because you get to the middle of some of those the arcs and the recap on the episode is like six minutes and then you have like 15 minutes where the episode.
[00:22:22] No I see the longest one I've seen is the recap in one of them was like nine and a half minutes long and I was like yeah.
[00:22:28] What about the rest of my episode and I think I was really pissed off about it because I was on a plane flying and I was like yeah.
[00:22:34] I've completely miscalculated how many episodes I need.
[00:22:36] Yeah no each episode it's really only like 15 minutes where the content once you get towards like the middle of an arc.
[00:22:43] Like it's not long you're like oh shit.
[00:22:46] I have to finish one piece.
[00:22:47] Yeah we're still in the middle of the dresser's arc are we?
[00:22:50] Yeah.
[00:22:52] You have no idea.
[00:22:54] Yes we're the flamingo guy and the island with the little people.
[00:23:01] Yeah that's for one.
[00:23:02] And they just have like a big fight.
[00:23:05] Yep that's the one.
[00:23:07] Oh we haven't watched Shengar law front here.
[00:23:09] No yeah but see what episode we left off on I don't even know if it's gonna pop up.
[00:23:15] Alright yeah we're in the middle of dresser.
[00:23:18] We're on 636 apparently.
[00:23:21] How did I keep watching?
[00:23:22] Do you want me to wait for you just keep watching?
[00:23:24] Huh.
[00:23:25] I don't know because there's over a thousand out there.
[00:23:28] Yeah we're 400 episodes behind.
[00:23:30] And I really want to like watch it with you though because there's so many important parts and things that happen.
[00:23:36] Well it's not just that.
[00:23:37] We just never have like the time to watch that many episodes in a row.
[00:23:41] You know.
[00:23:42] You can watch like four tonight.
[00:23:44] Yeah it's something like that.
[00:23:45] Okay I'm all for it.
[00:23:47] Yeah go watch one piece y'all.
[00:23:49] We need to catch up on the Sm other shows too.
[00:23:52] We're behind.
[00:23:53] My philosophy is one piece is its own demon because we were already like 700 episodes behind right.
[00:23:58] So I'll wait for you on that one.
[00:24:00] My other philosophy is if we were watching a show together and we watched like the first 10 episodes or whatever.
[00:24:06] And then we don't watch it for a period of over three months.
[00:24:10] I just watch it by myself because I'm like yeah it wasn't important enough for that that we continue it you know.
[00:24:15] I've had something that I know we're both interested in that I'll wait but I go I select it by the by the end of it whether I watch it without you or not.
[00:24:23] Because like 90% of my scrollbacks are my watch list I'm like I'm only like two episodes from Phoenix and it's my why did I just finish this?
[00:24:30] No because we started it together and it was like last watched in like 2021 I'm like no I just finished it.
[00:24:36] Yeah I don't mind that.
[00:24:39] There is also more dramatic stuff.
[00:24:43] That document or a quiet on set came out.
[00:24:48] Everybody online has been talking about it.
[00:24:50] Oh my god.
[00:24:52] Everybody I don't know how to say it other than oh my god I do like I knew like you going and you know it's about like child sexual abuse and things like that happening to these young actors on TV sets and things like that but.
[00:25:05] It was just so much worse than I like there were parts of especially episodes two and three where I was literally just staring at my computer screen my hands over my mouth like.
[00:25:15] Just like shocked and feeling so bad for them and I I saw a quote that really stuck with me and somebody said they gave up their childhood so we could have ours.
[00:25:24] I'm like that sucks which shows was the best show.
[00:25:30] I really like Drake and Josh personally me and my sister used to watch that together a lot yeah I was really liked our call I Carly didn't really like Sam and Kat or Victoria's that much.
[00:25:44] Yeah I didn't like those ones either.
[00:25:47] He was an even sick kid they felt weird you know.
[00:25:49] Zoe 101 was just okay I feel like but I like Drake and Josh I think the best out of those ones.
[00:25:55] Yeah so it is it really hurt knowing like what he was going through like and nobody knew.
[00:26:01] But it's a really good documentary if you can handle that sort of stuff then I'd say watch it like it shows that we really need to do a lot more to protect children in the industry like.
[00:26:13] You say we like hearing that industry well I wanted to be an actress and so I just I feel like people should care about those sorts of things like these are the children and actors that are you know giving us our entertainers.
[00:26:24] You know giving us our entertainment and things like that.
[00:26:29] And if we want them to continue being able to produce that entertainment for us without them getting like traumatized and seriously hurt then we as a society should make sure that they're protected just like anybody else would be.
[00:26:41] I don't think they're special just because they're on TV.
[00:26:45] I think it should be applied to everybody but.
[00:26:50] I think it's legal because your parents were nearby.
[00:26:55] Your mother was in a nearby room while you were doing all these things.
[00:27:00] And what really shocked me about that too is the amount of like parents that were like oh this happened but I didn't tell the police because I didn't want my child's career to be raised or I didn't want them to think I was a bad mom and it's like well you're already there.
[00:27:14] And you have that thought like yeah no it's.
[00:27:19] Like what they also showed that like three pedophiles alone were listed in the same year from Nickelodeon did you watch that entire apology video interview thing no did you go back and watch it later no I didn't know if you watched it though no I don't need to hear what I was to say I only want to the first like minute of it though.
[00:27:39] Like I know now not to sexually harass people at work like I didn't know better than.
[00:27:44] So you've been in the business for over 20 years I think you know it's appropriate what's not appropriate is like I want to issue some like apologies to everybody and you're like yeah that's going to make up for you making them touch you every day.
[00:27:57] There's a reason why none of his other projects have gotten off the ground since then.
[00:28:02] But yeah go watch that if it's something you can handle I also recommend i'm glad my mom died by Jeanette McCurdy it's connected a little bit to the story and they include some of her clips from that.
[00:28:12] Is that a documentary or is that just a book it's a book that you know I already wrote basically Jeanette McCurdy's mother was like really abusive.
[00:28:20] I remember reading like articles about the book but I actually looked into the book itself I have it on Kendall if you want to read it.
[00:28:27] But she like was forced to become an actress basically because her family was like destitute but her mom was like a hoarder and her mom would make her shower with her until she was like 20 years old like.
[00:28:37] Would like inspect her body and stuff like that and like make her die and make her believe your teeth and just all these things to make her like the perfect person her mom want her to be.
[00:28:46] And then on top of that she was also dealing with like the abusive and weird sexual behaviors at Nickelodeon.
[00:28:51] So just like a really bad weird combo but the book is really good also really hard to get through but like it's a very poignant memoir and like her journey through therapy and stuff.
[00:29:03] Can you say those two words again for me?
[00:29:06] Poignant Memorat Memoir.
[00:29:08] One more time.
[00:29:09] Why am I saying it wrong?
[00:29:10] No I just needed to know what they were.
[00:29:12] Poignant.
[00:29:14] You're a little too soft.
[00:29:15] Am I saying it wrong?
[00:29:16] Go for it.
[00:29:17] Poignant.
[00:29:18] Poignant.
[00:29:19] Is that how you say it?
[00:29:21] Huh?
[00:29:22] Go ahead.
[00:29:23] What is it?
[00:29:24] Memoir.
[00:29:25] Okay.
[00:29:26] Why are you having me repeat it?
[00:29:27] Well I thought I heard it wrong the first time what was it?
[00:29:30] Stop!
[00:29:31] Maybe I think I'm really self conscious right now.
[00:29:33] I'm just asking.
[00:29:34] Why did you say that?
[00:29:36] It's definitely...
[00:29:40] The G is definitely not a G in that word.
[00:29:44] It's definitely poignant.
[00:29:47] Poignant.
[00:29:48] See?
[00:29:49] I never heard somebody else say it out loud okay?
[00:29:52] Just say it.
[00:29:53] Poignant.
[00:29:54] Poignant.
[00:29:55] Probably French.
[00:29:56] Probably.
[00:29:57] Listen, whatever.
[00:29:58] Point being yeah I would highly recommend that and don't be a peto.
[00:30:02] Thank you.
[00:30:03] You sure?
[00:30:05] Oh it was my turn.
[00:30:08] Let's see what happened to me this week.
[00:30:12] First it was Monday then it was Tuesday.
[00:30:16] It was a little bit of a mess.
[00:30:18] I was skipping ahead few days.
[00:30:20] I was Friday and Saturday.
[00:30:22] Yeah.
[00:30:23] Oh, all right.
[00:30:26] What was it?
[00:30:27] Oh I got to know a car accident this week.
[00:30:30] And you didn't tell me?
[00:30:33] I will wait.
[00:30:34] To specifically see your reaction.
[00:30:36] What happened?
[00:30:37] Because I knew we'd be recording together this week.
[00:30:40] What happened?
[00:30:41] Is it in your car?
[00:30:42] Yeah.
[00:30:43] Yeah no, in my car.
[00:30:44] Is your car okay?
[00:30:45] I'm fine.
[00:30:46] Thanks for asking.
[00:30:47] But you're fine.
[00:30:48] Yeah, that's why my back is fine anyway.
[00:30:50] Can you tell me that?
[00:30:51] Oh my god Jordan.
[00:30:52] How could you not tell me that?
[00:30:55] When did that happen?
[00:30:56] I was waiting for the podcast.
[00:30:57] One day of the week to this half time.
[00:30:58] It was story time.
[00:30:59] What did it happen?
[00:31:00] When's there Thursday?
[00:31:03] It's Sunday.
[00:31:05] Well yeah, I had to wait for the podcast.
[00:31:08] Okay what happened?
[00:31:09] I had to wait for the podcast.
[00:31:11] Was it your fault?
[00:31:12] No.
[00:31:13] I was not a bad driver.
[00:31:14] What kind of accusation?
[00:31:15] Oh my gosh, here's what it was going on.
[00:31:18] So I was doing this road thing where I was going room and there were these cars right and
[00:31:23] they were also going room.
[00:31:26] And so I was coming up to the stop light and the stop light turned red.
[00:31:29] So all the cars in front of me stopped.
[00:31:31] So I was like alright, I'll stop too.
[00:31:32] So I stopped right.
[00:31:35] But I stopped maybe like three or four feet before like when I would have normally stopped.
[00:31:42] So I stopped a tiny bit early but still like just slowly roll.
[00:31:45] I didn't slam on my brakes so just slowly rolled and then stopped a little bit early.
[00:31:49] You might be asking why are you afraid of the car in front of you?
[00:31:51] No, I'm not Ripley.
[00:31:52] So we stopped early because there's a car trying to come out of a driveway and it's a super
[00:31:59] busy street.
[00:32:00] So I was like yeah, I'll just stop a few feet early so he can come out onto the street
[00:32:03] because it's a red light anyway.
[00:32:05] And then I also wanted to avoid that situation where I'd pull up just enough to where he'd
[00:32:09] be like directly next to me.
[00:32:12] So it would just be me staring at this guy that was like and he's just staring back at
[00:32:16] me like you asked so you didn't let me in.
[00:32:18] So I stopped, the guy pulls out in front of me.
[00:32:21] It's a really short light.
[00:32:22] I know it's a short light so I'm like yeah, I'll let him in right.
[00:32:25] He gets out in front of me by the time he gets out in front of me, the lights are already
[00:32:29] green and there's only two cars in front of him so all three cars start going.
[00:32:33] So I start going and then immediately have to stop because someone rear ends me.
[00:32:38] And I was like you mother for I was on my way to work.
[00:32:41] Like you son of a bitch.
[00:32:43] So I was like, I don't want to do with this.
[00:32:46] What did he say?
[00:32:47] No, no.
[00:32:48] Her.
[00:32:49] What is she?
[00:32:50] What?
[00:32:51] What's wrong?
[00:32:52] Of course.
[00:32:53] What did she say?
[00:32:55] I got out and I put my hazards on.
[00:32:59] It's a one lane road so other people like I don't know if they saw her wet but like she's
[00:33:02] just sat there and in her car.
[00:33:06] But the other people behind us start driving around because they were like oh shit whatever
[00:33:10] they drive around and they start driving off.
[00:33:11] I'm like man, of course I only have the fucking dash came in the front not the back and
[00:33:15] I'm like alright well, I'm like at least the dash cam will show that I didn't I didn't
[00:33:19] like stop aggressively or anything right.
[00:33:22] And so I got out and I looked at it and I was like I'm like I'm already like pretty close
[00:33:27] to being late for this shift and I'm like you if normally like half my job at one location
[00:33:33] if I'm late a little bit nothing's going to happen right.
[00:33:36] But this other part that I was going to I have to relieve somebody like I'm going to
[00:33:40] somewhere where like they're waiting on me in order to like go home for the day and
[00:33:43] they're they're getting off like a 13 hour shift and they're only waiting for me to show
[00:33:48] up so that they can leave right.
[00:33:51] And I was like I really don't want to fucking deal with this.
[00:33:53] I don't want to call that guy and be like hey I need you to stay an extra life fucking
[00:33:56] hour while I deal with this bullshit.
[00:33:59] So I'll go around in the back she rolls down her window and she goes gay and I was like
[00:34:03] I love it here and I was like no you hit me and she looked at it and I was like oh and
[00:34:12] she backs up a little bit right because she's still like against my car.
[00:34:16] She backs up a little bit and I look at it and I was like you know what I'm just going
[00:34:20] to leave.
[00:34:21] And so I looked at it and I was like it's not worth my time there was like her car
[00:34:25] was more fucked up than mine like the whole front of her car was like cracked in half
[00:34:30] and I was like what you get for hitting a big ass car like you are.
[00:34:32] I was like I don't know what she's like gay and like she didn't understand that the cars
[00:34:37] had touched each other so she back I told her to understand that she when she was in
[00:34:42] the Spanish to get away with it.
[00:34:43] I told her to back up a little bit so I could take pictures and send it to my insurance
[00:34:47] because I was like I'd it's not like a month or thing right.
[00:34:50] I was like I still don't want to deal with this still in the middle of the street and
[00:34:52] I was like it's not an emergency we can pull off to the side but she backed up like a
[00:34:57] foot and I looked at it the whole front of her car is like cracked in half and like
[00:35:01] it I'm like yeah serves you right and I look at my car and there's like a scratch maybe
[00:35:05] like a quarter inch on like the paint and I was like it's not even worth my time.
[00:35:09] And I just got back in the car and drove off to work like you have fun.
[00:35:12] I'm like have fun fixing that without fucking insurance like it's on you.
[00:35:15] It's not so bad because like my car just has like the paint scratch and a little bit
[00:35:22] of it and you know but it's silver so like it's fine.
[00:35:25] Yeah.
[00:35:26] And it's just cosmetic but that I fuck that guys light up like I fucked that guys tie a
[00:35:29] light up and then you kept driving.
[00:35:31] It was like four grand trying to get it fixed I checked with my insurance I like oh my
[00:35:35] god I felt so guilty.
[00:35:37] Yeah no.
[00:35:38] Yeah so I was in a car accident this week.
[00:35:41] I wish you would tell me like when it happens.
[00:35:43] No I wasn't hurt so it was fine.
[00:35:45] So I told you when mine happened I wasn't hurt.
[00:35:47] Yeah but you had to file insurance and it was also your fault and you were freaking out.
[00:35:51] I was.
[00:35:52] That's why you called me.
[00:35:54] I was having a motherfucker I don't want to do with this moment and I didn't.
[00:35:58] And I was like whatever and I just got back in the car and doing that when I get in
[00:36:01] accidents.
[00:36:02] Okay.
[00:36:03] Can I solve?
[00:36:04] Yeah okay.
[00:36:05] No I don't care.
[00:36:06] No blowing less.
[00:36:07] Like as she backed up I saw it and I was like hey your car is fucked up when I got
[00:36:11] my car and drove off and she's like yeah and I saw her like I saw her get out of her
[00:36:15] car like she half understood and I was like yeah now you're just a lone woman getting out
[00:36:19] of her car in the middle of an intersection like you do you.
[00:36:22] I just drove off whatever.
[00:36:24] Well I'm glad you're okay.
[00:36:26] Like stupid.
[00:36:27] Like I didn't even feel it.
[00:36:28] I heard it.
[00:36:29] I heard the plastic like going and I was like and I look in the mirror and I'm like she
[00:36:34] is way too close.
[00:36:35] I bet she hit me.
[00:36:39] And that is what happened but don't worry I already named the episode.
[00:36:47] Is this your first one?
[00:36:48] First one.
[00:36:49] Car accident you've been in like I was in a driver.
[00:36:52] That's a driver.
[00:36:53] Yeah.
[00:36:54] And I mean technically no but the last one I wasn't even in the car like they somebody
[00:37:03] hit my parked car.
[00:37:04] Oh did you tell me about that?
[00:37:06] I think so but I was in college my car was parked outside and the four of us were renting
[00:37:12] this house but there's only two spots in the driveway and then there is a gravel driveway
[00:37:17] on the side.
[00:37:18] So I whoever got like to the house last or whatever which is park on the street which
[00:37:23] is fine because the streets pretty wide and the edge of the road it's gravel so like two
[00:37:29] thirds of my car are not even on the road.
[00:37:31] It's literally just like the door in the wheels you know well I'm sitting at home and I get
[00:37:36] a knock on the door and I'm like all right so I open it and it's the neighbors from across
[00:37:40] the street and they were like well it finally happened we backed into that car that's
[00:37:44] always parked there.
[00:37:45] I'm like what do you need it finally happened.
[00:37:46] I'm like first of all if you were aware that it was a risk why didn't you tell me sooner
[00:37:50] hey can you park a little bit over or a little somewhere else because we're afraid we're
[00:37:53] going to hit your car totally understandable.
[00:37:55] I can move it or if you were aware that it was an issue maybe be a little more caustic
[00:38:01] about hitting a parked car you know I was like I do remember I also I remember how wide
[00:38:08] that street was like there was so much space in between cars if there were two cars
[00:38:13] parking.
[00:38:14] So I went down and visited that house.
[00:38:16] Was it a different house?
[00:38:17] Did you come down to that house?
[00:38:19] Oh no you were there yeah yeah yeah okay I don't know why I didn't think so.
[00:38:24] But yeah I'm not a road being pretty wide.
[00:38:27] Yeah no it's standard fucking width no but I went over and he's like oh I want a body
[00:38:31] shop I can do this and I was like look I'm just going to go through the insurance bank
[00:38:34] because this is like it's easier that way right.
[00:38:38] So the insurance adjuster or the claimant does or whoever he came out and he took a bunch
[00:38:42] of pictures of it because I guess their insurance needed the pictures I sent all the pictures
[00:38:46] to mine.
[00:38:48] And so then he's like yeah this will clearly I mean you were parked here their story adds
[00:38:53] up to your story that you were just parked here and they hit you I'm like I'd like
[00:38:56] to see them claim something else.
[00:38:57] Yeah inside my house.
[00:39:00] Yeah so then he's like yeah alright well you'll get a check or in the mail to your
[00:39:06] poll and I was like okay to get a fix you know.
[00:39:08] I was like alright sounds good.
[00:39:10] Well they sent me that check and it was like it was like two grand and I was like the
[00:39:15] door he hit the driver's door but it still opened perfectly fine like there was no it was
[00:39:21] only cosmetic damage he only hit it like it wasn't impeding like the window or anything
[00:39:25] like it was everything worked perfectly fine and I was actually like two or three weeks
[00:39:31] away from moving back to Vegas after college so I was like you know what sounds like
[00:39:38] I got two grand help me move like that's what I used to do for him.
[00:39:42] Never got that fixed and then sold the car anyway I'm like I still dead to yeah that's
[00:39:47] kind of weird to me that they sent you a check like my insurance is that I've had always
[00:39:52] just like make you go somewhere and like paid the people that repair your car like they've
[00:39:57] never given me a check for it.
[00:39:59] You know he I think it they didn't have like a mean insurance company it was some like
[00:40:06] off brand like little insurance company that they had so he's like yeah we'll send you
[00:40:10] the cash use check for it and I was like okay.
[00:40:12] Well it was cash use check because they made them pay for it because it was their fault
[00:40:17] you know it's like your insurance.
[00:40:18] That makes sure.
[00:40:19] So they get they've got money from them and then gave me the cash use check I'm like
[00:40:24] cool.
[00:40:25] I'm thinking my insurance just covers.
[00:40:29] It's covers accidental that's what it's for.
[00:40:31] Yeah.
[00:40:32] I need that.
[00:40:33] I'm so wired.
[00:40:34] And what are you making for dinner tonight Jordan?
[00:40:39] I'm sorry is this interrogation what kind of question is that.
[00:40:43] No I just thought you might like to share with our audience.
[00:40:47] What is it called chicken something chicken chicken chicken biscuit something yeah chicken
[00:40:52] and biscuit cobbler is what's called that's the one.
[00:40:55] There's basically just chicken and carrots and other vegetables and you cook it down
[00:40:59] real quick and then throw it in a pan and put some biscuits around it and call it good.
[00:41:03] That's that.
[00:41:04] I think it'll be good but I think that's about all the time I got unless you get more
[00:41:11] you want to talk about.
[00:41:13] No you know just been playing power old and the Sims and writing my book and hoping
[00:41:17] to not have a mental health.
[00:41:19] The books coming out next month you heard it here first.
[00:41:24] It's not in the long in.
[00:41:26] Point oh sorry I just my job is taking so much of my mental energy that like like finishing
[00:41:33] this book has been the hardest fucking thing I've ever done.
[00:41:35] Like I keep writing a little bit at a time but it's not as much as I know I could do if
[00:41:40] I weren't so exhausted.
[00:41:43] But I know how I want to finish it now so it's okay.
[00:41:49] The descriptions you put what are so interesting.
[00:41:52] What do you mean?
[00:41:53] I don't understand.
[00:41:54] But yeah and I'm also scared to publish it.
[00:41:57] You're scared what are you scared of?
[00:41:59] What are you talking about?
[00:42:00] Nobody buys it.
[00:42:01] What do you mean?
[00:42:02] It sucks.
[00:42:03] So did you have fun writing it?
[00:42:04] For the most part yeah.
[00:42:05] Then shut up and publish it who cares.
[00:42:08] But like.
[00:42:10] And the only way that people know it sucks is if they buy it.
[00:42:12] Oh gotcha with that one didn't die.
[00:42:15] But I can't make an income for myself with my book suck.
[00:42:18] They need to be good.
[00:42:19] Why?
[00:42:20] If people buy a terrible book they still buy it.
[00:42:23] They can return it.
[00:42:25] Did you return Ironflame?
[00:42:26] No.
[00:42:27] Exactly shut up.
[00:42:31] I do an FD Ironflame I could not make it through like five pages.
[00:42:34] Like it just did not like it.
[00:42:37] Still pay for them.
[00:42:38] But you're right.
[00:42:39] Okay so the book will be coming out.
[00:42:40] Don't worry.
[00:42:41] I'm taking care of it.
[00:42:43] Are you trying to have it out before the wedding or after?
[00:42:46] My goal would be to have it out by the backslare but that's a lot of work.
[00:42:52] Yeah.
[00:42:53] I believe in you.
[00:42:55] Schedule your some days off and go for it like the wind.
[00:42:59] Whoosh.
[00:43:00] I will.
[00:43:02] All right do that.
[00:43:05] Okey dokey so this has been mindless.
[00:43:07] Oh wait.
[00:43:08] It wasn't Okey dokey already.
[00:43:10] No.
[00:43:11] Oh well let's start it again.
[00:43:13] Okey dokey thank you guys so much.
[00:43:15] I'm so.
[00:43:16] Okey dokey.
[00:43:17] Okey dokey.
[00:43:18] Thank you so much for listening to mindless.
[00:43:21] Okay.
[00:43:22] We've been your host Jordan and Ripley.
[00:43:24] Don't worry I probably won't strangle him after this.
[00:43:28] If you liked what you heard or even if you didn't then leave a message you can go and get
[00:43:33] your message on the podcast or you can go and get it on there.
[00:43:37] Tell us how much you hate us tell us how much you like us.
[00:43:40] Go follow us on social media.
[00:43:41] I promise I'll start trying harder.
[00:43:44] Oh man.
[00:43:45] It's the impression I can help it.
[00:43:47] Oh we got little task clips coming out.
[00:43:49] It will be fun.
[00:43:50] We still record the episodes.
[00:43:52] You know some people just stop their podcasts.
[00:43:56] You were at that much ever.
[00:43:58] Yeah it's like what is it?
[00:44:00] It's like 70% of podcasts stop after like within the first five episodes or something
[00:44:05] is it weird to recommend a podcast on our podcast.
[00:44:08] You've done it before.
[00:44:09] Okay well so I told you I started watching or listening to this podcast called Narcosis
[00:44:15] into the Deep.
[00:44:18] The girl who runs a woman who runs at her name is Alex and she's like a certified diver
[00:44:24] and she just covers like diving disasters like I listened to her first few episodes about the blue hole
[00:44:31] and there was an episode about the first like recorded case of mutiny that's in 1987
[00:44:40] and it's like in a long time that people got charged for Jacob's well which I learned is you know an hour outside of Austin
[00:44:47] so I just like learning about disasters and things like that.
[00:44:51] But her podcast is like it's not like tiny but you know it's still newer podcast gaining traction.
[00:44:58] So yeah so I was like you know I'd like to share if you're into underwater stuff and diving disasters
[00:45:05] then I would recommend Narcosis.
[00:45:08] I'm really enjoying listening to it and the episodes are short they're like 20 to 30 minutes max usually
[00:45:13] so you can listen to it like on the way to work or like on the break or something like that.
[00:45:18] It's really quick.
[00:45:20] So yeah that's my suggestion.
[00:45:22] Good do the outro.
[00:45:23] We have a video outro.
[00:45:24] No you keep talking the outro is last remember.
[00:45:27] Okay thank you again for listening.
[00:45:29] I want to choke you.
[00:45:30] Oh wait.
[00:45:31] Okay dokey are to choke you.
[00:45:33] You're ruining my whole life right now.
[00:45:35] This has been an episode of Mindless Prattle.
[00:45:37] Follow us like us or do whatever.
[00:45:41] Okay bye.
[00:45:42] You gotta say bye Jordan.
[00:45:44] Alright get out of here kid.
[00:45:46] We're not a swim.
[00:45:48] No.
