I can see you know how what the i can tell what the message is going to be. But it's feels a little graham right now. People already kind of feeling like it's the apocalypse. But sure i guess thanks can make me feel warm about it. Yeah what a voice on that guy you know. yeah i could just. I wonder if chat does he is he. Always he. the voice the jamaican robot bomb book. La he's like sorry nepotism. Y'all my there are times when i'm reading books to my kids where i'm like god. I wish tom hanks was rooting. This instead he would he would really nail this. He's got one of those voices that exists between like not to basie but has enough like high tones to it that it feels like whimsical to so much feeling well. We've got a new development and the jeopardy saga ken jennings who was basically like trebek's chosen successor to the point that he left the cufflinks that he wore on camera for every episode to ken. Jennings clearly being like. I will jennings to replace me right. I'm sure there's like the logic there's many gave him that he didn't give you the couplings read. You probably would've me more if you knew me knew anyways. Now that the mike richards i think his name has been replaced. They are going to give ken jennings the old one year try. So we'll see you know. He seems like he knows all the answers. So that's i know what if he starts taking on a new direction as hosts he's like our and the this question blah blah blah. Someone answers fucking are you serious. No dude what hannibal. Wow okay anyone else. I wanna fuck embarrass themselves again. What are you doing this shit. Remember the best insecure. I mean that is how like a lot of great like athletes are like. they just can't get over. I guess because they lose their gifts with time so then they like automatically get insecure. Get older but so this is still like it's like having ninety eight or ninety seven michael jordan constantly still just calling games but in that same shape i can only imagine who is i am that you are sorry to look. It's jack again. Them kids really everyone audience hurt. Who do you think you are. I that is one of the great brains firing on no cylinders just began masculine adrenaline and finally Cnn at one point during their broadcast of the california election results accidentally had the total vote for the recall race in the yes column giving an extra three hundred fifty thousand votes to the s.'s. Because they just put all all votes in the ascom and of course this is the sort of just natural error. Typo the is bound to happen. That is going to be seized on by the right to prove probably like a loose change style. Video that The democrats cheated the election thing. But if you're watching any other network you wouldn't have seen that right but anyway well the cnn's in on it right right right right know. My heart goes out to people watching that. Yeah all right. Those are some of the things that are trending this afternoon. We are back tomorrow with the last episode of the show until then be kind to each other. Be kind to yourselves. Get the vaccine. Don't do nothing about white supremacy. We will talk to you tomorrow. I nine eleven. Two decades later is a limited series. Podcast that looks back. Twenty years since the attacks of nine eleven and features those who were in the inner sanctum of our country's government infiltrating in the world to be honest with you and we ask the question. Are we safer today than twenty years ago. I don't think so. I wish i could answer differently. But i don't think so. I think those in charge these days need to spend more time communicating.

Oh you're kenneth wayne jennings the third you never put that on your checks. I don't the same reason. That richard winfield garnett the third use it. Oh i thought it sounded important. That's why you objected to that because it applies directly to you. Yeah yeah i would i would. I would have moved up to junior now. Yeah but requires my dad to decide. He wants to be senior. Also he's keeping the to that forces you to keep the three. No he's still junior junior. But that's what forces you. He likes to say that you know. Because i'm always ken jennings in the president. He's ken jennings junior. It's really been a it's not identity crisis and possibly time travel paradox for him. He's he's sounds like the the son of his own son. It's bill gates is a junior. Yes but what The way they differentiated is that His father called himself william gates senior. And that's that's one you don't your father could just become senior. He could if he believed in your manners. Agent of chaos. Everybody moves up one. All the time doesn't that sound better. Ca kenneth wayne jennings senior. You'd be you. He be Just aspiring his whole life to become a senior break out of that junior mole he goes from sounding like a serial killer cowboy to sounding like a bank president kenneth wayne juniors seniors get used less for the first of the name can just leave it off. He's the original. Wash it he. After he's the right man it would be a rhetoric him to call him senior was. He lived his whole life without being a senior until had a child. Change your name just because you named a kid after you you. Don't you already named a kid after you. You've definitely got an inflated sense of yourself. Yeah you know the the tendency to name children after ancestors after their after their genealogical legacy or heritage is really at the core of what created middle names. 'cause morgan is the Is a family name. is that right. Yeah family family surname. Yeah you know. The romans had three names often guys. Julius caesar in they would be. There would be a pre norman which was like your personal name. Guys was julius. Caesar's equivalent of john. Ken and then. Julius is your noman your family name. Oh that that was the equivalent of the surname and the third name which is often what we remember today in the cicero or whatever that was called the cog newman which originally it was kind of nickname later it became kind of supplemental hereditary name to distinguish different branches of the family. You know how you would you know. I have this problem today. i just. I had my brother's family visiting me. That's the that's also the jennings's and then my parents came over from scam to go to the ball game with us a neighbor the jennings is too so i can't tell my sister had the jennings's were staying with us. I because i'm the jennings's so you can say the olympic jennings says or the utah jennings right exactly so. This was. The roman cognitive carcinoma became kind of the equivalent of that. Or if you did something awesome in your life your cognition could become a sign of that like if you wanna battle you could become magnus maximus or something. So your dad is ken. Jennings junior you. Are ken jennings jeopardy jeopardy us is a do you have a do you ever use. No i mean there are some that rod roderick long winters. There's some there's some nicknames that people might apply to me but i'm not going to adopt a myself and as a result you can have. It became fashionable because fads always sprawl to have multiple cog no mona. Where if you accomplished multiple things you would just keep adding names and this seems a little odd to us to have the family name in the middle and then a series of kind of descriptive or delimiting titles. But it's this is the exact same system that's used today and a lot of east african cultures action so it's apparently. There's something intuitive about it. Classroom these bantu people did not get it from reading about cicero well. In hungary the last name is first and that's true in korea to yeah and And china and japan as well. Oh the last name is i really. Oh i didn't realize that. About japan and china. I mean you can say it in. It's commonly anglicised especially for japanese. People would say well t- chiro suzuki but but if they were saying it in the old fashioned way the date of way they would say suzuki each year. You put certain. I i did not know. Maybe that's part of the asian ethos of putting family before self. You literally do it. I wonder about the hungarians because it's not something that happens anywhere else in europe but then of course they aren't from europe tone gary. Don't get me started the hon.

He ends up stepping down. They want to name former jeopardy champion, Ken Jennings, the new host, but they found a few problem tweets from a few years ago and said they really weren't comfortable with him taking over the show because people weren't excited about that. Yes, I guess it's kind of cancel culture coming in. But let's be honest, like the old saying, what you say can be used against you in a court of law, kind of works on the Internet, too. What you type will be held against you forever if somebody screenshotted it. I remember when MySpace first came around going back to what 2004, 2005, we used to track into potential employees and look to see who they were and what they were and to be honest with you. Well, here we are now with social media being around for over 15 years and well, what you are typing 15 years ago no matter how old you are, can't come back to haunt you. I guess it's no fun to be vanilla, but hey, if you don't say anything that people upset, you probably don't have to worry about it.

"Do. Ken Jennings is out. The stuff he said was really stupid. I think I'll meet this thing. Like last back in 2004, he won a ton of money as you know, 74 games in a row, but then they found these tweets and it's all bad. He actually started by saying, this is awful. One time posted nothing sadder than a hot person in a wheelchair. It's not funny. You don't make fun of people in wheelchairs. I'm about to have beauty, you idiot. Again, a non common trying to be a comic, don't try it. Just be as smart as jeopardy guy. Then a couple of years after that, after Kathy Griffin held up that picture of Donald Trump's decapitated head. He makes a joke about Barron Trump, who was then 11. And his baron seeing a very long necktie on a heap of expired deli meat in a dumpster, he thought of as his dad and his little heart is breaking. These are the kind of guys you want to punch in the face. Then he described an older woman who was mourning her dead son by tweeting this awful maga grandma is my favorite person on Twitter.

This is some puzzling phenomenon that they can turn their Their the bright light of science upon and finally come. You know finally be able to say this is like cold fusion. it's it's an illusion it's an illusion because because there's you know somebody is introducing some some uncontrolled for element that it's perfectly explainable. But it remains. It remains something that that you can observe that that a common person can observe in their home freezer. That can't really be duplicated when all you know in an environment where all conditions are controlled for and so it's not convinced. Science scientists aren't convinced sciences and convinced but in typically in cases like that the casual observer are wrong right. it's the moon effect. You're right yeah. It seemed so convincing to the senses. Somehow but there's a cognitive bias involved of some kind but even as you say even if that's true a at the at the at the minute level yeah you would expect to put a hot glass of water and a glass water in the freezer and to come back in fifteen minutes and one of them is frozen in one of them is still warm clearly. It's a proof of the existence of god. God is pranking us.

"Out presumably a glass of warm water and aggressive cold water in the winter and check it out so this is so there could be first observation. This is one of the there are a lot of doubters and one of the the primary ways of like of throwing shade on this observation is that there are so many so many factors to take into consideration if you just put a warm glass water and a cold glass of water out into the backyard you know what is the type of glass. What is the temperature of the glass. What are the impurities in the water. What it what was the. What are the factors and the naysayers are looking for all the reasons why this isn't true or is impossible cart. Scott haters that's what naysayers do and also what does freezing mean is is right am i. Right is freezing. The first thing to form ice on the surface is freezing. The first the first the one that freezes all the way through so it's frozen solid or is freezing the first class to get to zero degrees celsius and before you have good. Thermometers like this is really a case. Where the active observing might might change if you're poking finger in there to see how deep it's frozen well even the presence of the thermometer. Yeah but all of this still. It would seem that if you put a glass of water that was one hundred degrees in a freezer and a glass of water. That was thirty thirty three degrees. Yeah sorry celsius users. The fact it's there it's still a subject of de of debate whether or not whether or not the hot water freezes faster. It would seem that the hot water would be hot long before along after the cold. Water froze to what i'm saying. So it's happening. The something is happening.

Oh so it just seemed like i would either fall or Just my ankles would feel terrible or both so your kids. Don't ice skate. My kids i think have both ice skated and like it more than me but career is a cold country. A country in the winter do is ice skating. Not part of the culture. I can't think of. I don't think there were skating. Rinks there when i was. I mean. i'm sure there's more winter sports infrastructure. Now they hosted the olympics for crying out loud but i was not aware of anybody ice skating. None of my friends owned ice skates like did little ponds freeze in the winter. Did you have frizzy pawn. We did have free ponds but we wouldn't go out on them. Create is cold in the winter. Cold dry air comes down from siberia in the winter and then the summer hot hot air comes up from the south china sea. So really you get something awful all the get it all. It's like ohio. That's right But i don't know is ice skating fun if you do it enough. Yes right it was never fun for me. I i My perception of it. When i was in grade school was at least in alaska that you were either. An ice skater or a skier and although there were plenty of people that could do both you kind of picked a track ice skating or skiing was there a is there. A demographic difference between the two the jets and the sharks. Yeah i think so. Ice skating hockey is a more blue collar sport. It's more certainly violent and skaters. Were all top hockey kids. They weren't like the figure skating girls. No i feel like you know. Skating isn't like a certain sport for poorer kids but it is escape or it is a sport for like. Yeah that's it at my high school. It was kind of more popular than football in terms of like all the cliches of like nebraska. High school football. Were true at my in anchorage but of hockey hockey. We had a football team and they were state champs but hockey team was where the where the heart and soul. The hockey center is the quarterback of of Anchorage high and they were the guys that drove the jack-up pickup trucks and we're acid wash jeans and and great cowboy boots and had mullets and people would come up to him to the drugstore and be like. Hey we're gonna we're gonna win against western this we get. That's right and the and the hockey cheerleaders were kind of the top top. Cheerleader school leaders. And so i've ever considered the possibility. They where jason voorhees masks no no. They were cheerleader outfits. Cold crossover between football cheerleaders basketball cheerleaders. Hockey cheerleader. yeah but it was always at least the sense that we had that the hockey cheerleader for kind of the pinnacle of cheerleader. Like food pyramid. They were them. Although the pyramid the top of the pyramid is thing. You want the least well and it's the liquor but it's also the top of the pyramid is is actually place. You would find cheerleader. Yeah right exactly. You'll find one at the bottom of the pyramid at the bottom of the chairman right. I guess you just professional hockey have cheer squads today. I don't think isn't it only basketball. I guess college football has cheerleader. But just pro.

The koga was also extensively dammed in the twentieth century to generate power during. The you know the the boom time of hydro-electric damning and now a lot of the dams on the koyo and that you know the dams just increased the kind of slow moving slugging sludgy rancid -ness of the river.

"Which is how they got ta lebron's but luckily a different monk had a dream where he saw a very a monastery With distinctively curved winding path around it to a little house with turquoise eve's now we're talking told me more turquoise i just realized this guy is literally reading the tea leaves. The te'o eve's -til eve read the tea leaves. If you want to know the future. I to take you off the topic but the people that sold me my house painted my eve's gray just the ease. Well not painted the house gray They painted the house red barn red while i've just given it away. Anybody that's in my neighborhood. Now's gonna know where. I live but find the barter at house with the Gray they painted under the eaves. They painted them gray. And you know it's a mid-century house so it has bigger eaves and Degrees back then. Yeah they did. There was bigger bigger. Eaves is one of the ways you can tell people in old photographs but am realizing that the gray eaves are like kind of a drag. But i'm trying to figure out what color what's an exciting color to paint under your eaves. That doesn't seem a little bit like overmuch. Tibetan buddhism has the answer turquoise eve's it would be auspicious because in this case when the search parties headed up to the province of ondo They were undercover by the way. This is like when you're trying to buy arms out from farmers so they're not saying hey we're looking for the next dialogue. Who can help there just like we are poor wandering itinerant monks. Please shelter for the night. This is cool. And they wind up at a village in the dot com district where they find a house that matches the appearance and may have heard that. There's a kid the right age you know. It has to be someone who's been born since the death of the previous thirteenth dalai lama right. They didn't skip thirteen by the way as bad luck. It's a kid. That's that's old enough to be the dalai lama. But it doesn't have to be the dalai lama but old enough that you can take it from its mother. You don't want to take a four-month they're not going to kidnap. And you know it just occurred to me right now. How similar this to the christmas story and luke you've got a bunch of astrologers wandering the countryside trying to deliver gifts to a chosen baby right They they know vaguely direction to follow. But that's about it. You know fellow wandering star or in this case the character meaning amdahl this. This must be this. Must be a very deep archetype. Old old man looking for a baby are deepen our souls. Yeah it's something from from oldest india. If old men are looking for a baby that's how you know that's a good baby in our culture. Now that's not as popular. It's true old. Men looking for a baby is kind of a bummer. I mean it definitely makes you side with the baby but it gives you very bad feelings for the old man. And i think maybe we should wait that the boy that they've heard about was actually born two and a half years after the thirteenth dollar lama died but apparently that is not the logical problem. The dioramas taking care of business up upstairs she spent some time in the bardo. The limbo like state between lives in tibetan buddhism is that a groovy place like in What's the what's the one. Where the kid the dea pixar film where the kid is like roman around as the guy that doesn't want to die. Oh it's the new one soul and the like the jazz musician finds himself in a big cloud city full of little babies. This place is very groovy. it's instead of babies. It's full of buddha's yeah. You get visions of different kinds of of buddhas with all in great glory and color and representing different buddhist virtues. And then there's a choose your own adventure book by you know depending on which of the buddha's you focus and meditate on which of the colors of lights you look at you'll come back into different life. They say that you can even look at the at the last door that you look through. You will see in to your next life and in fact you will see your parents going at it and that's how you know you see that's a that's a a fertile landing place for your next arrival but i'm correct in saying that there are no lady buddha's well that's another point Up until now there have been no female dolly long dalai lama. And let's leave it there for moment. Okay when the search party undercover search party gets to this village. They find the little boy and he's they didn't know same. He's just dressed as like a servant they don't even know he's from the household but they're immediately miraculous manifestations he he seems to recognize one of the monks whom he would have known in his past life as the thirteenth dalai lama. If you can get your mind around this and he calls him like he referred to as a law that he uses a lhasa accent. Like an accent from town the caveat from town so it'd be like you go to the country to try to find the next whatever and he's like forget about it in here so he's got a regional accent that that his predecessor would've had but not the people around rattler. He's raised Over as they observe him over the next few visits at one point he asks for their row. He asks for a set of rosary beads around somebody's neck. And actually those were beads. That belonged to the previous dialogue. Okay and in fact. That's the test you do. You offer the child different objects to see if he can pick out the ones that he would have owned in his past. Life feels like this is sort of a weschler test for children right right. Here's a picture of a moose looking at his mommy in the bathroom. What emotions does this make you think of. What is the baby moose. Think of right now and in this case they would show him a ritual drama and something else and he would know this drum. That belonged to me when i was last here. This walking stick was mine. But i wonder how i wonder what. The percentage of correct answers it is. What's the mendoza line. Because sometimes he's got to get get it wrong right and just pick the more colorful nafis really the guy right. This is not that different from. There's a korean custom you do. I think when a child is like a hundred days old called on dole cianci. I think where you show the child and this is. I think kind of a common architecture in asian culture you show the child a bunch of objects. You know the baby you you know. There's a calligraphy brush. And if he picks up the brush she's going to be a smart kid. Oh does if he picks up the bill. He's going to be rich if he picks up food. Fat kid is to be. He's in the three kinds of people. There are smarts and fat. So it's like it's like a like a lot of asian schools determine whether you're a carpenter a lawyer before actually determines whether you get to go to the good cram school right. No that's not true today. There's maybe more modern options different colors of rice cake and video games right for you're gonna you're going to be a twitch streamer. This is fantastic.

This is like the kind of stuff that happened. Occasionally on the dmz. Yeah the every. Once in a while seventies eighties people shoot at each other. Rudy was actually shot above the right eye and died and although there was never an investigation of the incident rudy was taken. That was kind of a like regarded as a full kiro in the east.

A relative to the future in nineteen ninety eight. The story got out that the west german soldier who shot rudy arms. Todd was a man by the name of hans. Paluska and hans shot rudy in this skirmish and although rudy was lionized as a murder of the east hans was just. His identity was concealed or like the never made it into the newspapers until long after reunification and reconciliation at the time. Hans was working as a taxi driver and he gave a couple of interviews as this. You know as the cold war was kind of being digested in the german popular. Press and he said you know. I hated the idea that i'd killed this person. And you know and the cold war sucked. And i hated to be to play the this or any role in it and Shortly after this interview he was found shot to death in a car park and though the bullet wound was right over his right eye.

"Chooses. To play at his inauguration and so suddenly it becomes not just a symbol for the genteel old south but of the secessionist movement. And you know as you know. It kind of became an informal if not national anthem at least kind of marching song right for the confederate army of the confederacy never had an official national anthem. Which i did not looking this up. There was a song can have time you don't you don't spend a lot of time wondering who the first secretary of the interior of the confederacy was or who is on the the five dollar bill. We'll get to that. We'll get to that. Can you and i were lucky. Enough to get a couple of median. Cook wears carbon steel frying pans and They're they're truly things of beauty. But i understand you and your chef level wife mindy have been have been cooking with your pan. Yeah it's a cast iron pencil you have to a what do they call it. Season not have to season. Tcu just put oil on at once and put it in the ellen but in the oven and then you're good to go. It's not as a difficult to season as a true cast iron pan. This is a this is a different kind of cast. Iron and i was really impressed. Mindy made kind of like a rhubarb sauce to go with something we were eating and it's rhubarb roots and we said we were barber very heavy pan. It heated nice and evenly did great. And the best thing was it was as nonstick as a A a teflon kind of suspicious space age coating. How cool but it wasn't it was just a it was just a cast iron pan. You could put in the dishwasher. It's it's heavy in that. It feels sturdy without being heavy. Like a cast-iron pam. That's actually like difficult to to. It's not like it's coming.

Their products are used by some of the world's best chefs at michelin starred restaurants around the world made in better quere for better meals. That's made in cookware. Dot com slash omnibus and. Use the promo code omnibus. There was a song written called. God save the south to the tune of god. Save the queen which kind of has like because there was some recognition in the southern papers. Hey the star spangled banner and plus hail columbia and my country. Tis of the all these patriotic songs in the moment cannot be our anthem so they right this very militaristic god save the south which echoes the kind of the language of the flag. Still flying over the years and and the blood of the blood and the heat of battle. It's got a lyric about how their oppressors are coming from the north. Who who only want to fetter the freeman to ransom the slave so slavery even is mentioned but as something that should yeah that should continue because the alternative would be to the free better the freeman and it could read white man. Obviously you know it's a it's a militaristic society and it's interesting. That dixie song is not militaristic who does take my stand. But it's more like but that's more like i'm going to work this field till i die. It can be used to mean and no union army is gonna burn me out right. Which is what. I always assume. And that's what it came to media not not probably what was on. Its mind in eighteen fifty nine. Interestingly just a side note the north also had a conversation. What it's national anthem should be. The star spangled banner was well accepted but it was also from the war of eighteen. Twelve which america's most glorious victory. I mean today. It just seems random to us that we're seeing this song about one night on the war of eighteen twelve in eighteen sixty very much seemed like hey this is the last war right like we need a new vision of american so there was a committee called upon to design a new national him and there were conversations of the newspapers and so both sides contemplated the new national anthem. But the south kinda landed on dixie. Just because the catchy in it's already in chart catchy i guess you're if you're in the army your life and drum corps can play a jaunty version of it and hated it it was a northerner and it was not in favor of secession. I don't know too much about his politics. But despite the fact that he ran a super raises minstrel show he was not like some big pro slavery or anti abolition guy. He said Now that i've seen what roughly now that i've seen what they put the song to in the south. I'll be damned. If i have written it which i don't think makes any sense. I'll be damned if i would have written it. Well that's again in dialect. He's speaking his own weird mount vernon ohio. It's the dialect of people that wear jodphurs. they're not jodphurs. Funny top hats among the thirty-seven claims about its. Authorship is a very interesting one where the scholarship didn't come out until the nineties based on local lore mount vernon ohio which was emmett's hometown which he often went back and forth. You know because he later mythology is the whole writing of it and said you know back as early as eighteen forties. I was thinking about my wife southern roots and he created this whole kind of mythology about it. When asked because it's like didn't go well after this right he's still still trying to make a dollar off of it and he's like what if i just romanticize wonder i guess he later. At the beginning of war he felt as part of feeling bad about dixie and of writing the hit song of eighteen fifty nine. He was asked to write the the fife and drum marching manual for union troops which he did so a lot of the songs you would have heard in. The field were arranged by amid published in his in his little chat booker. Whatever but but he didn't do that. Sufiane stevens thing where he then started writing a song cycles about all the different. I'm going to say about dakota's peninsula. He got about as far as few hundred one region and then he was like seems like a lot of work and then later he said it was a prank But the mythologised the mythology of it kind of worked because people did believe all these kind of wistful room romantic remembrances of him and as late as the nineteen forties. I think there was a movie made. Where bing crosby plays dan emmett. The man who wrote dixie kind of banging his head against the desk and one night right inspiration comes or whatever that is how you write a great song by the way but what it seems like. He's just wrote it the night before. Does that work to. Yes the night before the show. I thought you were about to write something. But that's just dixie. Yeah well no. I thought you were jumping your just whistling dixie. No see dixie goes dun dun dun dun dun and i went dun dun dun dun dun dun i was i was on a like a zoom call this week playing like a little jeopardy like quiz show for a corporate event and i had warned them. I had worn them. Hey this powerpoint you've found somewhere just says jeopardy everywhere and you haven't licensed so just just so you know so by the time we actually did. The thing jeopardy even papered over with this thing that said like ken jennings trivia show helvetica but then every time they played the jeopardy music they had found some public domain version of it goes up instead of down once a measure. So it's like done done so this is kind of like sounds terrible like some auto tuned version of jeopardy theme so they don't get sued and it was It was it was like your version of dixie. I'm gonna sue them just to keep my hand in but the most interesting claim as.

Jonathan Corbblah on the Big Poker Boom
"Welcome back to the grid. I jennifer shoddy today. I've got an extra special dare. I say delicious guys. It is jonathan core blah. Blah is a man of many games we met through chas where he's a blitz legend and renown coach. He's also a jeopardy champion. Anna hosted the game show masterminds the game show network where he works with ken jennings. Jonathan has been on over thirteen. Game chose from cass cab. Who wants to be a millionaire to wheel of fortune. He appeared in a few projects produced like x. Chess and american. Just star many of the games at jonathan. His bastard involve grades whether it's jeopardy or chess or scrabble and honestly that's why i've wanted him on the show from the start. I've been nagging him for two years. And finally i captured him for the grade. He brought a hand that he played with nine five suited just a few days ago. It was in a home game that i played into jonathan. My i live guests in the grid for over a year. We aren't a beautiful beach and poker retreat weekend and so john that i have to thank you for taking time out from champagne and sicilians for this little chat. It's actually really really funny. I'm glad that we were able to meet up this weekend. Were out here in southampton. And i'm glad i was able to shenyang only fill a spot in the grid with a hand that you saw me play so that was actually kinda fun. Was the nine five of clubs nine five of clubs and tell us a little bit about your relationship to poker. Now i came in with the big poker. Boom of chris moneymaker like many people our age when it was first on. Espn and You know the the world series started growing and we started meeting. These guys. Like phil hellmuth and phil ivey and whatnot. And i became extremely interested in playing. So i got a party. Poker account full tilt poker account and luckily living in new york city. I had a lot of opportunities to play in some underground poker game. So i would say of all of the poker played in my life. Probably eighty percent of it has taken place in underground games mostly in new york city but also other places around the country starting with cash games. You know when my bankroll was really low one to no limit will come up to two five and five five these days playing a lot of five ten pillow so bring us back to those days. What was poker like then. Well there were so many people who played and because of the numbers so many who thought that they were amazing so many people who consider themselves professional regardless of how much they could support themselves with the game regardless of how much they think they knew that perhaps read. A few books played a bunch. Got a few cashews. And i can't lie. I probably was one of those people you know. We were all kind of swept up in the u. Fauria of everyone being able to play their poker rooms opening up all over the place on riverboat casinos and indian reservations in a c- in vegas and you know Foxwoods mohegan sun. So everywhere. I would go for instance. There was a long-term tournament at the foxwoods casino in connecticut. And i would often play. Maybe the first few rounds get a little bored and then eventually miss around and go to the poker games because i was doing a little bit better in the poker game so definitely poker was there was cachet. I mean if you recall a time they had the heads up. Poker tournament on nbc. Cyber poker shout at exactly celebrity poker showdown poker was in the zeitgeist definitely between two thousand three and two thousand eight ish and i would say that was really a part of the hebei of me playing.

No but you find a lot of goat's that are actually being herded. And they're moving from from place to place in the mountains. So i walked across the carpathians as i've probably found opportunity to say many times and where you often stopped by a convoy of goats. I did. I did walk many goat trails. I did meet many goat herds coming through the rye at one point i stopped and talked to a shepherd. The lonely goatherd. I don't think he was a shepherd. No no you're right. It wasn't ship convinced. He was a goat goat. Her a gothard and He reached into his pocket in the in the spirit of of our camaraderie and fraternity in the side of this mountain schnapps. Any pulled some goat cheese.

I mean they're better than geese. Worst our great geese and swans are crabby. Yeah they'll they'll they'll go for your nose. Are you pro goat. Yeah i feel like in. You know in urban settings now. You increasingly see goat says kind of eco-friendly agents of Urban renewal peons. You got the if you've got an overgrown backyard or vacant lot instead of bringing in a backhoe they'll just bringing a goat for a week and it'll eat literally every it's the only thing that'll take out blackberries. We'll let me just add a little addendum to this. You know i have. I have a piece of property that was very overgrown with invasive species and i reached out to go to the goat people. There are a couple people. There are a couple of three in the mountains. The goat people dancing whistling on their pipes. I found three different goat. Landscapers in king county and island county. Who were willing to bring between fifty and three hundred goat. What to your property to clear. Why do you need that many well because what they do. Is they fence off the area depending on how big your property is they fence it off and then they just put the goats there and the goat. Stay for some amount of time until they're done till they've digested everything. They've just plowed everything. And so i was like this is amazing rather than pull out all this english ivy vian and chop down all these blackberries. I'm just gonna hire fifty go army of goat's well. No one can eat fifty goats. It's just the problem of Parallelism there's no problem you can't solve by throwing enough goat's at it like one hundred percent enough goat's could read shakespeare. I wonder how many i wonder what erred oc- number of goats as a as a group as a species. The problem was the all the goat people that i talked to were like. Do you have laurel on your property. And i said yes and they said laurel is poisonous to go and then they went down this list of things that goats candy now. I thought goats could eat anything but apparently that's just a no sharks that he license plates as we know that's right. The tin camping is a trip from cartoons. Probably from ghost who like to eat the glue off the labels. Sure they can't digest metal. Well it it turned out that i had a couple of different Glam for plants. Yeah that that were poisonous. Two goats and and in fact all all of the people replied to me kind of with a little bit of like scorn in their voice like no. We're not bringing our goats laurel infested proper. I feel like you still could have solved this problem with goats you just would have had to buy rather than the goats. They would've eaten everything. Why wonder how good goat stew is hit. The goat died of laurel. This goat. curry taste has delicious. Laura taste you put a bay leaf in here. Kind of yeah. Some people find goats creepy. Because of the. I mean it's it's central to our stories day that goats have long been associated with different kinds of sinfulness right. It's not just paying. It's it's even before pan goats. Were you know in greek mythology. There were nymphs who seemed cute and lived in ponds. They were treated. They turned into trees if you if you if you try to date them. Yeah that's will try to rape them. And i think at the time it was kind of the same unfortunately all stories. The gods being like the gods are not asking for consent. The gods are like i love you. I'm coming for you. But but the the the male companion of nymphs were satyrs half goat half goat boys. Don't boys not living in ponds but living in. I mean rooting around in the in the woods. And they're They're very. They're hyper sexual. Yeah they're smelly and they wanna hump but is that true of goats and like if you were like. What's the ken. What's the hornets barnyard creature. First of all. I would say mr mundy's stop asking me these questions. I'd do podcast mindy. I'm trying to sleep. What would you say. But i don't think i would say go. Yeah right like it's a. I don't know like aren't aren't stallions more. Yeah there you go. Or what masculine or the mighty bull. Exactly pulls there. We go there. The bull is is the overpowering sexual animal so why did goats become pan. The you know the symbol of pan. Who is up to no good with With every they're stinky. I mean they're fair amonal smelly that's it and so they kind of just smell sweaty all the time. But you think that's.

"It's got the same repetition of vowels and consonants that jj no it's just anglo-saxon enough to be real. Ken jennings sounds just speak fake and he looks fake to this kind of stocky barrel chested white. Goateed guy that you could see golfing with your uncle. He is He's written just hundreds of books. Christians self help books christian waie. Books christian mystery series. A lot of as told to biographies. I now believe. I have read one of his books because he wrote an asshole to of you know that when celebrities write their autobiographies they don't actually even the smart ones even obama's not writing that thing you really. They'll just get in the room of the journalist and they talk and they get a draft where the guy writes down the story in their cleaned up version of what they said. And then. that's why all those books are so boring. There is kind of template to them. But that's just because there's a template to human life when you go to a rockstar bio-pic you're like this is the i hate those. Dr gavin period. Those two. although that elton john was pretty good. The i'm getting obama wrote his own book. I'm to say. Obama had a ghostwriter. I'm not gonna look it up. I'm sure he did have a ghost rider. I'm sure he did. That's the thing it's not that he could not string an inspirational paragraph together. That guy lead the free world three years because he was capable of doing that one at a convention. But he's a busy guy. Yeah it you know how long it takes to write a book longtime in the case of my latest four years. I walked still not done. It's taken me twenty years. And i'm still not so. He had to write these toll to barbies many of them for christian presses for example. I think i read his book about. Bj thomas when i was going to a protestant extremely protestant middle school in the late. Eighties is b.j. Thomas of bj in the bear. Is that the same j. What j. thomas thomas raindrops keep falling on my head. Oh him oh. Yeah and i happen to know this because of my upbringing because of my Semi semi christian upbringing not not my mormon upbringing. My like korean lutheran private school upbringing. Right where we always my elementary classroom at wall of these weird books you and kathleen edwards. Were there couple years apart. We were there having to read about christian detectives solving mysteries. It all turned out to be demonic possession and celebrities who turned christian and then bj. Thomas is an example of one of these guys who wrote one of these boy was i. I had the big hit in america. But then the raindrops started falling on my head. Because i got into the needle drugs. And then i got into you know of course ends with him finding jesus and now. He's a new person at the end of the book so these are kind of the the antimatter. Nancy drew's like nancy drew. Seems like she's investigating a demonic possession. But it's really a corrupt real estate agent. Yes and these are corrupt real estate agents that. Turn out to be opposite of scooby doo. I don't know how many fake huntings the nancy drew books actually had. Well it's always a ghostly horse now she has more of a smugglers and secret passages vibe. You're thinking of maybe the three investigators who we've mentioned on the ship are. They always have fake huntings but the smugglers. That's always something going. Woo in the in the cave trying to scare the people go on the dog. Yeah you put glowing paint on one of the smugglers and he looks like captain kidd the headless pirates. Go yes no. I read a bunch of these books where the police all thought. It was something boring but only our detective. Who's been saved knows that it's actually a demon. Who stole the painting from the gallery. Why you laughing again. Fifty eight percent of white evangelical forty one percent of your fellow americans. Just i mean i love it. It's it's i can't decide whether it's a coloration on life. It can't be that different people aren't just not that different. It has to be something you and i are both capable if we had been raised in that county but like i'm not somebody that that imparts of an echo sensibility or left a sensibility. Very much to things that happened in the world. I can take stuff like when a tree falls in the forest. I assume it makes a sound when a maybe the divided certainty. And that's very skeptical about certainty. I think there's very little certainty i have. I have very little about anything in a and certitude. I don't accept and it's not just that we have ideological objection certainty. We really just feel at sea with big parts of our lives. Yeah well that's exactly right when somebody says like this is so my instinct is to go really and rather than thank god. Someone knows right. And i think it's easy to see what i mean. There's dangerous both ways but the dangers of it is so. is you. Fly a plane into a skyscraper because it is so i mean there's there's a body count to it is so oh you also don't have the satisfaction of not knowing right the right there's an aesthetic component. Yeah the the enjoy the struggle. It's the blind. But it's the flip side of the sublime you can't enjoy the sublime if you think that it all adds up somewhere that's what it is. It's just people who enjoy the enjoy. The snow the wrestle. Yeah yeah instead of the answer. Well yeah i mean. That's the difference between a good university education and a poor one. The answer has to be good though and you still find. Books are not good no is most of the people being bring being burned alive in a firestorm i look. I've never read one. So i don't know what the end result is. I don't wanna generalize about christianity. Because god loved his his. God loved us all enough to sacrifice. That's a really beautiful story or no. It's a weird story. Frankly i don't wanna get into. I don't want to get into the bible either comes back to life. It never makes any sense story. He comes back okay. Okay i mean yeah right of course right but but the but the sacrifice part is should one that i don't i don't think it's it's it's it's like a mom suffering privations for her kids are or maybe lifting up a car. I don't lifting up a little confused about the metaphor now. Okay all right lifting up a car. Let's go with that but you're right that there are when you get into some of the specifics if you take one verse from the book and ezekiel and extrapolate a full five hundred page tom. Clancy's type book out of it. Some of those specifics are are deeply weird. I just have this picture of the council of nausea trying to trying to stitch together fifty different books written by semi literate people in aramaic. And just coming up with this story sort of out of it's like a probably not too far off. Yeah just feels like what but it made sense at the time or do they were all been drinking all day. You can't argue with success right. A billion people like the story well or at least don't understand it. Enough moved to complain amount of shares. So jerry geoghegan's has written a bunch of these as told to books. A lot of athletes. Orel hershiser mike. Single a coach. Joe gibbs of the. I'm gonna get this wrong broncos. Maybe because it's a very it's it's a that's a demographic that these christian dads are going to wanna read about especially if a lot of these guys are god fearing men and it's a core experience of christianity which is to have earthly success to have mantra find it one teen and then to have the either a return to the fold or a lightning bolt ten for the reader..

I was surprised by it that one Because while I find this information, the show fascinating. I don't think he's that warm and fuzzy. Okay, Who else? Those are the two biggest names. You know, we're waiting to see if Katie Couric will pass the test after she made some very political statements. They're kind of hedging their bets against the backlash that came out after she made some real angry or deprogramming statements about Trump supporters, and they're going to do all this. Just when I'm really, really I was comfortable from day one, but I've gotten really comfortable with Ken Jennings. Hi. I'm so I see. I feel like he's a college bowl host.
