Speaker 1

4:17

in a very, very aggressive league. I think my team sucks by the way. Really? Oh, it's not good. I'll show it to you. I've been getting very lucky. So I the team name I have right now is in the US Williams hitting Steve Young because that hurts my friend. That's Steve Young was his favorite player.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

4:36

That's the weakest shit.

Speaker 1

4:38

And now it hurts. It gets right. You never hate on the first thing. It's always the fourth fifth thing.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

4:43

That is the best. That one I don't know. That one

Speaker 1

4:47

hurts him. I know it. You hope so. I know. So he still wears a Steve Young jersey.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

4:52

Let's call him

Speaker 1

4:54

he won't pick up. Yeah, he knows better. Okay, who else isn't it Maybe I'm gonna maybe I'm not friends with anybody in my league. Maybe I don't have any friends except for you. I don't know. Maybe real? Yeah, six no baby.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

5:09

Speaker 1

5:11

Oh, I don't know. Anymore friends. Like this team is not taking it all the way.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

5:20

No, no, it's not. It's not like your defenders religion.

Speaker 1

5:25

twat. TJ why statline says twice. No one finds that insane. Let me know. That's my, my laptop. I'm also number one. I'm gonna just pat McAfee stuff. I'm also number one. In my does he do that? gimmicky? Like shot jockey stuff? Oh, really? Yeah, it's real. No personality. Just a lot of noises. Okay, got a guy. Um, but if he came on the show, I'd be happy.

5:57

Yeah. connected on LinkedIn.

Speaker 1

6:02

Dope with Pat McAfee. Yeah, pretty sure he followed me. I do like his challenge on a College Game Day where you'd have to kick like a 30 yarder to get right grin. And Bear like not so easy. Is it? It's like, yeah, it's pretty easy. Actually. You just you pluck, like engineers, engineers. Maybe wanted to be maybe it's in your dream.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

6:26

I was talking to a kid. And maybe they play plays peewee football. He's telling me how, when you score after you score a touchdown, the extra points they do. If you kick the extra points were two. And if you run it, it's only worth one. And I was like that because they can't do it. Right. I was like, that's actually good. Because those kids are you know, if you have one stud on your team who doesn't run over the holes, but actual kicker. That's interesting. That was a fun look, kicking out

Speaker 1

6:59

of the game. That's what I said to you have it in your fantasy league, which makes your league suck. I'm five and one by the way. Yeah, you know, and unlike a check League, it's a bunch of ladies.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

7:12

One lady, there's one person who I you know, there's not one female in it.

7:16

And she won it one time.

7:19

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

7:33

We're given to the way to kids. Good kids. And I'll tell them that's what we're given at the school you're at. Incentive?

Speaker 1

7:42

No, it's a weird incentive. Why? I don't know. That means that like, kids really need shoes. I guess.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

7:50

It's just an extreme motivator for them.

Speaker 1

7:53

Are they? Are they cool shoes, are they? They're forced ones.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

7:56

I mean, they're gonna be nice shoes. Like, we're gonna get them at the end of the year. Probably do like some kind of ceremony for it. You know, make a big deal out of it.

Speaker 1

8:08

Do you know the Pythagorean Theorem found on clay tablet? Is 1000 years older than Pythagoras.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

8:15

Interesting. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, dude ever go there? What about all the Alien movies?

8:23

I don't know anything about them. Really? No. Grow asleep. I've been I've been in the interstellar

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

8:30

big nap. So Mexico the Mexican government. Oh

8:35

god that though. Okay, I

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

8:36

know that's that's what I say. Those are bad pitting the artists but Alright, you got to remember it is, you know, a nation. Legitimate. I know Americans is always allergic. But I

Speaker 1

8:51

mean, Mexico City is a very cosmopolitan city. It is like San Francisco. You get outside of that it is garbage or you get to the resort.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

9:01

Okay. That's not what the point is. Okay. They still have to, you know, manage all those

Speaker 1

9:06

fattest country in the world. Okay. It beat us. We're fatter than America. Okay, that's just deputize them.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

9:13

No, but what does it say about us? You're bringing that fat tart. Trickle trickle down, fat trickling down. Okay. They, I guess they got these mummies. They're like little three foot tiny mummies of alien bodies. And they paraded them out. And they've been sending them all over to get them analyzed and all this stuff, and it's one of those things that it's like immediately. Oh, it's already been debunked and all that shit. You look into it. It's not really not really.

9:48

What am I looking? Bring up a source.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

9:52

The news? What?

9:54

You hate the news. You didn't think I was gonna ask you to pull up I think I'm making it up. I think you want to believe it. It's real.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

10:03

I think you're being a fucking idiot. Because you just want to be cool guy Joe, that'd be a fool for that.

Speaker 1

10:10

I want to believe it. It looked really bad. It looks like what you would do on meth. You're like, okay, see, I got

Speaker 2

10:19

well isn't what I what has been said about it is like, they say that, like, if it was fake, it was done by like, a multinational team of the greatest special effects artist to ever live. Yeah,

10:35

what's the source? We mean

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

10:36

the source they got him out of Peru.

Speaker 1

10:40

The out of Peru. I thought it was Mexican.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

10:44

They smuggled them from Peru because Peru is weird about it. And actually just had another couple of wrapped up in like, like Mexican doll clothes.

Speaker 1

10:54

I've heard Peru are the dorks of South America. That's all I got.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

11:00

That's the body there.

11:02

I'm glad we don't share this video.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

11:04

Similar to fucker. Why don't you look into it? And then are you as me,

Speaker 1

11:11

Eric, what is one of the notes say my name, bro. My name? Eric. Eric. Ah, what is one of the main agreements? Listen, with a skeptical ear.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

11:26

Right? But you don't understand what that means.

Speaker 1

11:29

I'm doing it right now. That means you I stopped that's

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

11:34

literally the Yuting chapter right now. Oh, and when they say that, hey, this skeptical means like, understand where people are coming from.

Speaker 1

11:44

Yeah, I understand where you're coming from your motive. Your biases is you want this to be real.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

11:50

I don't have a bias. I'm just looking at what's happening. You just painted and how many of that that was inspired by this? But like, but I mean, why would I want it to be real or not real? I think it's cool. But like I don't really have like, I need this to happen or else in my life is fucked. It really mattered to me. What were another

Speaker 1

12:11

there's a certain kind of thing where you go I was right. I was right. Which never ever works. It never feels good. When you were right about something

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

12:19

right about stuff all the time. Nobody gives a shit, right?

Speaker 1

12:22

No one's like, you know what? Your Johnny on the spot,

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

12:26

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

13:55

What do you think? That looks like a bird flying at 30,000 feet.

Speaker 1

13:58

I'm pretty far away from a small screen honestly.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

14:03

That looks like a bird you

Speaker 1

14:06

know that could be animated. Like you could animate that I mean you

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

14:13

know you gonna do that you can just keep scrolling what else oh, what

14:18

else? This is all AI made.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

14:21

Okay. What do you want to talk about? No, I visited good shit I want to talk about

14:26

whoa someone's upset.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

14:29

Oh, by the way in the bad side of these by the way

Speaker 1

14:31

ladies out there if you want to get your guys really pissed off. Tell them they're upset. See yada yada I don't care about oh man that

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

14:40

for that is slipping around. You tell women that are upset.

Speaker 1

14:44

Yeah, but they're they're they they're mostly upset. Like I'm saying they're just always upset. Oh, yeah, they get upset once a month for sure. That's how ladies work, you know?

14:57

All right, fellas, am I right guys out there. Bro I'm

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

15:00

gonna spam you with so many alien things you're gonna

15:04

get it you're like shaking you love this so much.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

15:08

Right congressional hearings about it. That's all bullshit. Right? David gross

Speaker 1

15:12

what came out of it? David Koresh is like Jesus, the guy from white goes involved what came out of it wouldn't be what came out of it. You go to Congress and you can talk to Congress but nothing happens like they they bring people in all the time

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

15:27

did you think do you not understand what they're trying to do? They're trying to

Speaker 1

15:30

trying to get this unclassified, or these classify things to be unclassified. Right? And then they finally did. But like, this is a story. This is a C span story for a day and then it was gone.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

15:42

Well, that's is that the problem? Is that the media, the media is pushing it down. Yeah, probably.

Speaker 1

15:48

Do you think that's because they don't believe it? Like it doesn't have any merit? Or they can't control it? So why would they want it out there?

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

15:56

Or if you want to go conspiracy with it? Yes. This we were trying

16:00

to call Sam Tripoli, the way he told us Jesuits are goofballs.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

16:05

If you if you watched any of it, like it was very vanilla, like they made it very watched. They made it very vanilla in terms of like, what he was able to talk about. He there's some, you know, some juicy ones out there. But really, like, it comes across like they're going to, okay, we're gonna do this first, we're gonna let it sit for a little while. And then we're gonna have some other stuff come out, and then we're gonna spoon feed it to him. Until you know, everybody's like, because like, people aren't really, really, really, you know, talking about it as much as you think. But so it's like, what do you talk about?

Speaker 1

16:40

It's underrepresented, for sure. Like it, if it has any merit. It should be talked about way more if this was 9091 This would be everything. Except for the Gulf War. Was that night tonight when

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

16:54

my point is is like you they're not bringing people in front of Congress. If there's not some what's in there? What

Speaker 1

17:00

side? Do the aliens sit on in the Gaza Strip?

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

17:04

Who knows? Man? Could be aliens on both sides?

Speaker 1

17:07

What side? Do you sit on? The right. I told you last night, I was doing stand up. And one of the topics I picked out was what's up with the Gaza Strip or what's up with Israel specifically, and I was like, Man, I am not qualified to fucking answer any of this shit. Like, like, I was just like, I love my Jays. I don't know, have you? I brought up my theory before they've had people trying to kill him since the 50s. Since it is a state I think right as the 50s. And it makes hard people It makes really hard people and I don't really understand. I do see a lot the thing I have seen that I've gotten an overload of is the liberalism of colleges that are on the Palestine side, which I find wild. Considering maybe 20 years ago is the it would be flipped. Yeah, that that I don't understand. But I don't know enough about the Jewish thing. Like it's just and then

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

18:02

it gets I don't feel comfortable being like talking good about either side on that. It seems so messed up on both sides. It just seems gross.

Speaker 1

18:12

Well, it's good to know that you can calibrate yourself. Like if you're in a inception, like you think you're in a dream state and you did a totem. Just look at the news broadly. Over a year. Just know abortion is a thing still. These are

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

18:29

this is a debate over abortion, right?

Speaker 1

18:31

This is an Adam Carolla bit, but he's like, if you watch SNL news, like the news update or whatever, for whenever they started it on the show,

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

18:40

right? They got Norm Macdonald talking about abortion. It's the same

Speaker 1

18:42

topic, same topics. It's crisis in the Middle East. Abortion debates. It's the president suck. It's the election of President set suck. It's the same shit for seven years, and we just fucking

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

18:55

eat it. Yeah. No, no,

Speaker 1

18:59

really, like I Congress really. When they couldn't determine when they're talking about tech, and by Tech, I mean, 20 year old tech of Facebook and Google, and they brought them to Congress. And they didn't know what was what they they're like, I don't even know how to log into my account. What are we doing right? Why are we Why did you pull all these people in? Well,

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

19:22

dude, that congressional hearing just the reminder of how gross these congress people are and how they just fucking just, it's so masturbatory. Thank you everybody for being here today. Che taking your time. And also want to thank the Mr. Over here and in the middle. And also let's remember the tiny spy balloon and all this and it's like, dude, the app is so self serving and growth.

Speaker 1

19:45

I saw a meme that said this is a pretty good one. It was like imagine you went to work and you just got to fuck around with your co workers all day. Right? That's basically what Congress is dealing with. I

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

19:56

know. I think you want to run for Congress. Man.

Speaker 1

19:59

Are you No, you have too much. This is why my dad lost by two votes and it's a blessing in disguise. He wasn't in the House of Representatives in 1986 My mom was like he would have been destroyed. Because he adds too much art like ethics and honor and integrity. He would have gotten fucking chewed up and spit out he would have made it one set like one term. Right? Like maybe that are in I think about it in a weird, maybe it's because I've been going down the door Cole have located in time travel and all that shit. But like, our lives, my life would have been wildly different. Had he gone down that route.

20:36

You know, they probably have a boat.

Speaker 1

20:38

We had a boat. We had a boat that we fucking never used. I never got to drive it. We split it with my uncle. And they use it all the time. They loved it. We went on it three times. I wasn't allowed to fake even fake drive it as a kid. No, absolutely not. My dad doesn't like grills or boats. And both of these things way too late in life. He's a man of simplicity. You know,

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

21:03

you know what I saw the other day that was I forgot about that was like amazing was from Bruno. That movie was Sacha Baron Cohen.

21:14

We're bringing up my dad playing chopsticks or

Speaker 1

21:25

just to tell everybody that's doing all right. He can play piano with index fingers out like someone that doesn't know how to type. Right?

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

21:34

Yeah. Well, I mean, that's how you have to do the piano. You use your fingers.

Speaker 1

21:38

But like one one index finger out not like laying on top of the ivories. You know.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

21:45

There's a scene in Bruto where he got a guy from Hamas, and another guy from Israel, I guess, in talking about it, and of course, they hate each other. But he said he plays it off. Like they're talking about homeless. And at the at the end, they're both so annoyed with him. And he's like, so we could agree that like so that we made progress. And I was like, Man, he's a genius. The way he did that was fucking amazing.

Speaker 1

22:14

There is something about funneling hate into one any I think we've talked about a lot on this program, like on our program. On this show, we've talked about a lot make a villain, you know, sometimes you have to make your own villain if you don't have one, right, like in business like to use that spike fuel for something. You know, like, you need you need something to work against. It's a very American kind of thought process, I think. Yeah, like, Well, yeah, for instance, this was like a year, you waiting to heat, something I know, in real time. And that's it. That's the genius, right? But I'm saying like, I'm saying, We bitch a lot about the president, but we don't know who our representatives are. Right? Right. Because that's more effort. And it's easier. It's easier to hate on one side. Right? Yeah, really, you should spread your hate amongst it should be segmented since everything's kind of segmented. I don't know where I was going with that. But it lifted off well, and then it was

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

23:18

talking about creating enemies. Well, motivation, I

Speaker 1

23:22

guess it's like a quiz in art. Of like, I can only focus my attention on Biden, I hate Biden, and he's terrible. It's like or Trump. He's the worst. Right? Right. But really, it's a lot. It's a lot more people that you should hate on.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

23:36

What popped into my head was like, if I have to fill in for another class, and like, at this point, I know who the bad kids are.

23:44

You're talking about your Zumba, right? My Zumba

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

23:47

class, like you take I'll take the ones that I know are going to be a problem and be like, you're helping me this role. You're helping me with this. You're gonna do this. You're gonna do that and make them in a teacher's pet.

Speaker 1

24:01

That's stoicism. Right? You went out the fire and you didn't go around the fire went through it. Yeah. But you know you are Marcus Aurelius. Thank you. But I'm surprised you don't like Marcus Aurelius. What are you talking about? No, I'm surprised you're not like deep in it.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

24:16

I mean, dude. I'm

24:22

glad. I'm glad to know I'm dipping my

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

24:24

toe in I follow the daily stoic.

Speaker 1

24:26

Oh, I you know, I tried to like, keep up to that. And I just as like, this is too many words every day. It's not like it's a

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

24:33

sentence. It's always good. I know. Maybe

24:36

I'm just jealous right now I

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

24:37

literally like I do actually preach that all day because every time somebody says something bad about somebody, it's like, Oh, I gotta clap back and I'm like, you guys got to stop reacting to everything. It's reaction. It's all that

Speaker 1

24:50

funny. You bring that up. I was going over this. Let's do a little parent corner we'll steal from Bill Simmons and Cousin Sal because they do a parent corner. Do you listen to that? They They do guest lines every Sunday night or Monday morning whenever it comes out. And they try to guess the lines for the next week. Okay, but they have a parent corner, which is my favorite part of the podcast so that they do about two hours of football talk and then they go to parent corner. And I think I've been listening to them for 17 years. I remember you know what it was, I was thinking about this. When I worked my first job out of college, corporate job mutual fund company didn't know what a mutual fund was when I got the job. And I have this Nobel Prize thing, this link up for who won the Nobel Prize, one of my bosses won the Nobel Prize for economics. I was so out of my zone hiring. I'm so out of my zone, like did not were they literally they go That guy's a rocket scientist. And I was like, yeah, he's Edward is really smart. They go, no, no, he used to be a rocket scientist. And we hired him. Because he's a brilliant mind. And you're like, Oh, I told you the CEO of the company basically owns Kansas basketball, which is the premier best. You know, there's one alumni that always owns these big programs. He owns he owns the rules basketball James Naismith rules the basketballs original book, like the original writing of it. He the The stadium is named after him. The Chicago David Booth School of Business, which is the net the best business school in the country. Yeah, I'm fucking you. Did

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

26:27

Speaker 1

26:28

No. I have I have I've had sinus issues like such a bitch for two weeks. And I'm just starting to get over it. You know how bad how fucking weak you feel like white weak. You're like no one in Sudan has allergies. I'm pretty sure. No one indoor for remember. Dark, horrible area. I know. But they don't have the they're not like oh, yeah, no, if we're talking if we're going cost benefit, I'm definitely going with sinus pain and like getting dizzy every now and again.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

26:59

Or they have allergies and their stuff just makes it not a problem.

Speaker 1

27:04

I don't think there's a lot of Afrin and in the desert and

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

27:07

so I'm saying they're not treating it. I don't they're just dealing with it. I don't think they

Speaker 1

27:11

get it. You get it? I don't think you get it, dude. But oh, man. Oh no, man, we got on a tangent highway. Now.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

27:22

This whole thing was tangent highway.

Speaker 1

27:24

Oh, parenting parent corner. Back to Oh, first job. I used to print out Bill Simmons his articles, print them out and take them in the bathroom to take dump that move before cellphones, right? Like I don't raise your cell phone so you couldn't read anything. Right? And I'd be like, oh fuck yeah, mailbag from Bill Simmons. This thing's 5000 words. I'm going to print this out and the other printer. So no one can see me right, put it together. Fold it into the biggest booklet that fits in my bag. Slacks correlated

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

27:56

full color. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1

27:59

And so I've been listening to them for 17 years, which is wild to think about. Got me through really long days. Anyway, they do a parent corner and it goes to what you were just talking about. I had my son was on the playground yesterday. A little girl called him stupid. He's seven. My daughter's five. Very upset by it. And I something I've preached from what I learned on Mad Men. I go indifference is the best hate of all. You have to ignore but that that that drills down to ignore them, which doesn't work when you tell a kid that right yeah, but your right reaction is that's what they want. Yeah. Well, the first thing I told him was something my football coach would tell us all the time randomly. He used to tell us two big things was like you only have one mother which is weird to tell football team a lot like constantly every week. Yeah, okay. It's like treat your mom correctly kind of thing. Like okay, we I didn't think I wasn't like respect your mom basically. Which is fine. Yeah. The other was Don't you never mess with the bullies. Hurt people hurt people kind of thing like yes hurt people hurt people. It's almost kind of a it's almost kind of like a fake platitude. Now when you when you say it, but it's it is one of the it's like we were talking about you point a finger at someone. There's three pointing it back at you. Which sounds corny, just like hurt people hurt people. But no, but it's true. That person. That girl either has a crush on you, which I can't take because he's like seven. He's like, No, I'm like, Yeah, you're good looking kid. take after your dad. It's my favorite dad joke. But also like what the kids are handsome boy. There's no doubt in that. I

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

29:55

think it was a joke.

Speaker 1

29:56

Oh, no, but anytime someone's like your kids are so ugly. horrible. I'm like, yeah, they take after their dad zing, zing slot machine. And then, but I tell him, I'm like, she either has a crush on you. But if she is just being a bitch, a little bitch to you for no reason. You have to just indifference is the best hate of all. Yeah. How many things in our lives, especially since the show's gone on? We've talked about this a lot. We get riled up about ship. And the quicker we get to. Pretending that person doesn't exist, the better it goes.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

30:35

Yeah, yeah, usually, you know,

Speaker 1

30:39

because some people look for a reaction. They want that charge,

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

30:43

right? And I was just gonna say it's like, they have they, you're when you react, you're giving them the power. They're controlling the situ, they're controlling your emotions, not reacting. Or just being like, whatever. Like you're in charge, then, like you have the power, because they can't get to you.

Speaker 1

31:03

I've been a single man for close to like five or five years, I should say. And it's been one of those things where I can I smell this now I smell it coming. You just want to make an argument for no sake. Right? I'm not gonna get any attention to it. Yeah. I'm going to pretend like you didn't even say anything. And then when you get mad that I've not listening or going now I heard you really want to get into it. It's not the best way to in a relationship, per se. But I tell I try to front load it. I go, I will pay no attention to anything like this. Yeah,

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

31:36

that's what makes it like, if you're looking for a fight, you're looking for the right to be alone the rest of my life. I'm okay. Because that shit is ridiculous. Oh,

Speaker 1

31:46

well, I that is a thing that women will do. If things are I always thought this was a thing. Maybe I'm an asshole. And I made this up. But I was like, if things are going too well, they'll just pick a fight to pick a fight. And you're like, What is this? Yeah. Why? Yeah. And then I get down to my real meat head solution of this. You got to go for walks. You gotta go workout, because women are angrier. We've talked about it a lot. If there's anything any trope we've had on the show. Yeah, that I think is 100% accurate. The Gen X. What are we Gen Y? I think millennials Gen Y. The women in though in those generations have more anger and don't know where to put it.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

32:35

So problem and don't really know they have it.

Speaker 1

32:39

And I think the guys that are sticking around not talking deadbeat dads, I got no I got that's the worst thing in society. I think that that brings down

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

32:50

that is probably causing a lot of the anger. Yeah,

Speaker 1

32:53

you can pinpoint I'm talking about. I'm talking let's qualify, I'm talking about the women with with the dudes that are around that are involved that guy, the dads that are involved, right. I feel like our generation of guys has come a little bit more of a female way traditionally, yeah, for sure. Or women don't want to come the other way a little bit. And they get really frustrated. They have to and that's we're taking it on the chin, the ones that are sticking around. Yeah. Man, maybe I should be in Congress. I just blabbed. I don't even know if any of that made sense. But we did steal time. Hey, Nobel prize last thing. Or two last things. Someone will beat the world record for a marathon. Can you see it? I don't want you to sit down. I want you to guess now. Yeah, I saw. Do two hours. 35 seconds. That's crazy. That's insane. In the membrane. That's what does that break down?

Speaker 3

33:53

I don't know. That's 120 120 minutes

33:59

divided by 26.2.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

34:02

It's really fast. We'll never get that fast.

34:05

And my arithmetic is not doing

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

34:08

well. I could sit here and figure it out.

34:12

We have these calculator things. Oh yeah. It's a four that's basically a four and a half minute mile. Yeah.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

34:18

For 26 miles. That's insane. That's fucking nuts. They didn't think they can run a four minute mile. Now he's for

Speaker 1

34:26

I ran a night I ran a nine minute mile last week and I was like, Look at me. That's good dude. With this sprinters body. Yeah, no, that's really good. Yeah, I wanted to die afterward. But like that's got down. Nobel Prize. Some I don't think we brought up on the show. But I found this very, I've talked about the the greatest rebrands in history. You know about the Nobel Prize of the greatest rebrands I've talked about, and I'm not saying it's a good rebrand. I'm just saying the greatest. The swastika a symbol of peace and No symbol of hate, right? That's the greatest rebrand that's the furthest away you can get the biggest swing. I'd like to say greatest just to make it sensational. The term greatest the Nobel Prize, the dude who mate made it up was a real piece of shit. Just made up the Nobel Prize. So he had something I think it was maybe a Nazi. I don't know. We're gonna have to look this up before we close this shutdown.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

35:26

We should make a prize.

35:28

But that's all I'm saying. Like but he

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

35:29

had to you had to give away money to give away money. Was he rich?

35:34

He was rich

35:41

found it

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

35:44

rose last week and at 95 I guess he wasn't.

Speaker 1

35:47

He was some he was not a good dude. That's that's the point. I thought it was going to come to me as I was going to explain it.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

35:56

Don't go Nobel prize.org That's gonna be whitewashed.

Speaker 1

36:01

You can Vamp for about one. Oh, he made me dynamite. Here's the Creator dynamite. Which killed by exactly that great. That's a timely reference. But he he made dynamite nitroglycerin using nitroglycerin patented it and then it became a thing that killed so many people because he made it created it put it out there I think he sold it to the wrong people. And then he was like I gotta flip this around

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

36:35

you know you don't know his motivations for creating it. Lots of it was for like you know mining well the shit out of the mountain see what's in there?

Speaker 1

36:45

I don't think it was I think it was ballistics specifically.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

36:51

The terrible ballistic though.

Speaker 1

36:53

Not an 1897 You know what I mean? Nepalis ballistics weapon. Yeah. Anyway, he was becoming such like, he was becoming such a piece of shit in society that he was like, I've got to flip this around.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

37:11

I think you give him a raw deal. I'm gonna look into this guy because Okay, okay. Yeah, he was just the guy trying to get the miners some some new tools.

Speaker 1

37:21

I don't think it was miners. Okay. I think it was specifically made to kill people.

Eric Readinger, Fractional ...

37:26

I don't know. I'm just playing the

37:28

dynamite. Well look into it. That's our homework. All right.
