00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,360
So depending on who you ask, Mermaids can symbolize both fortune and misfortune, like the sea

2
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,800
they can be both beautiful and deadly.

3
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:22,520
And if you were to travel to Portland's sister city, Moutares in Bobway, ooh, and ask

4
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:28,240
them what they think of Mermaids, they would probably lean towards the misfortune or deadly

5
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:29,240
side.

6
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:30,240
Okay.

7
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:42,240
Hi, Caitlyn.

8
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,240
Hi, Cassie.

9
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,240
Hi, creepy people.

10
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,240
The studio's looking pretty weird.

11
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,240
Sorry, I got thrown off.

12
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:51,240
Hello!

13
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,240
I was like, is she gonna do it?

14
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:55,240
I don't know.

15
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:56,840
No one knows.

16
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,640
No one knows.

17
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,640
It's perpetually distracted by the bright lights.

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,640
Yes, my arm fat.

19
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,640
The lights are very bright.

20
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,440
The arms are very skinny.

21
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,880
Here at PNW Haunts and Homicides, which that's what this is.

22
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:13,880
Is that what we're doing?

23
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:14,880
Oh shit.

24
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:15,880
Doing?

25
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:16,880
Just start.

26
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:17,880
No.

27
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:18,880
This is perfect.

28
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:19,880
Okay.

29
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:27,120
Where we talk about true crime, the paranormal, and all things spooky and or magical in the

30
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,120
Pacific Northwest.

31
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,120
Erie.

32
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,120
Sometimes other places.

33
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,960
Yeah, also that.

34
00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:40,040
We also do a tarot reading at the end of every episode for a little bit of deeper insight

35
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,080
into our topic.

36
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,080
Deeper insight.

37
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:45,080
Very deep.

38
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,440
We dive deeper into the ocean.

39
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,440
Oh.

40
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:54,600
I mean, that's like the one place we haven't really explored very much of.

41
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:55,600
I know, right?

42
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,920
It makes me nervous.

43
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,240
We might talk a little bit about today and about some of the creatures that might be in

44
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,360
the ocean that we don't know about.

45
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:05,360
No.

46
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:06,840
But it's going to be fun.

47
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:07,840
Don't worry.

48
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:08,840
Okay.

49
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Look at our hair.

50
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:10,840
We're having fun today.

51
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:11,840
Yeah, we are having fun today.

52
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:12,840
Yay.

53
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,240
So this was actually a Patreon live that we did a while back.

54
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,240
I can't remember when.

55
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:19,640
Sometime last year, I think.

56
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:20,640
Oh, yeah.

57
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:22,520
It's been close to a year probably.

58
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,040
I feel like.

59
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,520
But with our birthdays, mining, Kaitlyn's coming up.

60
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,240
Caitlyn's wedding, Shenanigans.

61
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:30,720
There's a lot going on.

62
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,080
So we decided we need to make our lives a little easy.

63
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,880
Bring back something old that we've already written.

64
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,320
I spruced it up a little bit.

65
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,680
There's some stuff added to it that was not in the Patreon live.

66
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,040
So you get something new as well.

67
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,560
And there's a bonus that can go with it too.

68
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,200
So a Patreon bonus.

69
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,080
So you're not missing out on anything.

70
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,640
We're not getting repeats because honestly we're goldfish.

71
00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:58,920
And we might not even remember what is in this episode.

72
00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:01,400
So that's what I was going to say.

73
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:07,040
There's, I mean, if you're adding to it and then our commentary, the decides.

74
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:08,040
Yes.

75
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,040
The digression.

76
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:14,640
We might say the same exact thing and not even know that we'd previously set it to either.

77
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:15,640
Say.

78
00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:17,120
It's all new to us.

79
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,120
Yeah.

80
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,600
Well, I'm going to start us off with a little dad joke.

81
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,760
Do you remember the dad joke?

82
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:25,760
No.

83
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,560
You might when I start say it.

84
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,640
How do mermaids relax?

85
00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:32,640
I don't know.

86
00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:34,040
They smoke seaweed.

87
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,160
Oh, my God.

88
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:42,400
I was going to say are they like me and they just like don't?

89
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:48,080
No, they do relax with you know, little seaweed at night after work in long hours.

90
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:55,520
Whatever they what I was like when what stress what job does a mermaid have?

91
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:56,520
Fishing.

92
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:57,520
Fishing.

93
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:58,520
Fishing.

94
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,960
Is this not already a pretty carefree existence for mermaids?

95
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:03,960
You know what they do?

96
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,720
They swim around old shipwrecks and collect forks.

97
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,680
Oh, oh, stressful day of that.

98
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,800
You're going to use some seaweed after that.

99
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,800
So I've been hard at work.

100
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,920
So what is the scuttlebot with mermaids?

101
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,680
That's adorable.

102
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,680
I know right now.

103
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,320
But it's like the mermaid version of gossip.

104
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:26,960
I love it.

105
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,280
Which is actually funny.

106
00:04:28,280 --> 00:04:31,040
That word is going to come back around at the end.

107
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,040
Oh, yeah.

108
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,040
Okay.

109
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:41,000
So the English word for mermaid is the old English for sea, which is mare and made a young

110
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,000
woman.

111
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,000
A woman.

112
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,240
In Ireland, they're called merrows.

113
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:53,560
And this is where I was like, oh my god, we had just talked to Jacquelin from Merrow's Anchor.

114
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:54,560
Yeah.

115
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,320
And I was like, I didn't even know what Merrow's Anchor meant.

116
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:58,720
Now it makes so much sense.

117
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,240
Oh my gosh.

118
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,400
There's literally a mermaid like in the artwork.

119
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,080
You know how sometimes you learn something new, right?

120
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,080
Again.

121
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,160
So again, that was Jacquelin, our friend Jacquelin.

122
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,160
Hi.

123
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:20,640
And I did forget to say this was also a suggestion from Michelle, who I think was one of our

124
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:21,640
patrons.

125
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,080
I don't know if she still is, but this was your suggestion, Michelle.

126
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,680
No, I, I, I, I, we had a couple of Michelle's.

127
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,080
I don't know which Michelle it was.

128
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,560
All of the Michelle's.

129
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:34,560
Yeah.

130
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,400
Michelle.

131
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:45,400
What were we saying about making up mermaid names and I know I said, shelly, shelly.

132
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:53,560
Because I'm an 80 year old and also a dad, despite the odds.

133
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,040
I mean, this episode has dad jokes and shelly's in it.

134
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:58,040
It's all coming together.

135
00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,520
I love it.

136
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,920
So just another little aside, I was like just a little aside.

137
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,960
And like the whole beginning is kind of an aside.

138
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,720
Everything's an aside.

139
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:16,240
But before we totally dive in, we're kind of doing this gender stereotype thing with this

140
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:22,200
episode with like the mermaids, but I promise you at the end, I will fix it.

141
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:23,200
Don't you worry.

142
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:31,640
Oh, but I do have to say, you know, today we're talking mermaids, but mermaids are also a thing.

143
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:37,320
They're just not as popular unless you're John Cena in the Barbie movie.

144
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,240
For the fan, the favorite monster in cabin in the woods.

145
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,160
It's a merman.

146
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,160
Okay.

147
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,160
You've never seen it.

148
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,760
I think we've gone over this.

149
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:46,760
Yeah.

150
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,000
I feel like, yeah, it goes without saying.

151
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Yeah.

152
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,480
So unless you're either one of those, no one really cares about merman, but I promise you,

153
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,480
we'll fix it in the end.

154
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,480
Okay.

155
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:57,480
I don't know.

156
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,080
Are we fixing it or fixing it?

157
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,080
Okay.

158
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:06,880
Mermaids have been making a splash in pop culture from books and music to Disney and Starbucks.

159
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:12,560
So I assume the majority of us know what this mythical creature looks like.

160
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:17,600
Upper body of a human until you get to the hip area and the rest is fish from there.

161
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:18,600
Yep.

162
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:19,600
Starbucks.

163
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,600
Mermaid.

164
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,600
She's stover titties out.

165
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,600
Fun fact, if you didn't know, kids.

166
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,800
Oh, she doesn't even have any now.

167
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:28,800
Nope.

168
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,680
They covered it with hair because titties are offensive as fuck you guys.

169
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:40,840
She just looks like kind of like the under the below the belt bits of a kendall in her

170
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,840
chest area now.

171
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaking of kendall.

172
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:46,840
Nippleless.

173
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:47,840
Yeah.

174
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:48,840
That's funny.

175
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,640
Kend comes up again in this.

176
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:52,640
Yeah.

177
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,240
It's, it's, we're so feeble with everything.

178
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,240
I swear, we don't even try.

179
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:04,560
So mermaids can pop up to the surface for the occasional interaction with a full human,

180
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:12,200
you know, both halves are human and are generally considered non-threatening.

181
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:17,600
This is different from a siren, another mythical being that is nowadays depicted as some type

182
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:23,400
of evil fishy woman, woman, usually very similar looking to mermaid.

183
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:31,520
Sirens are famously hostile and lure you to your demise with hypnotic song.

184
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:32,520
Ooh.

185
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:33,520
Yes.

186
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,080
Not like hypnotic, the blue liqueur?

187
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,080
Maybe both.

188
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,240
Maybe she's singing about hypnotic.

189
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:39,760
Molly, what are you doing?

190
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:40,760
Oh, that's Charlie.

191
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:41,760
Oh, sorry.

192
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:42,760
He's Charlie.

193
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:43,760
What?

194
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,760
He can't tell from behind.

195
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,640
Both are like brown little furry mudbutt.

196
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:49,640
Charlie.

197
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:55,960
That is more of a Charlie thing to do. He is standing in the closet just to stare in a way,

198
00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:01,400
stare in in the corner to box this basic, like there's literally nothing.

199
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,200
I mean, no, no.

200
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,360
It's, I mean, why would I be concerned?

201
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:07,360
Yeah.

202
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,360
Thanks, Charlie.

203
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,080
We got to get that pod dog cam.

204
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,080
We do.

205
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,600
So you can see how creepy shit they do.

206
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,080
We're recording.

207
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:15,080
Oh.

208
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:20,520
So with these sirens, think Harry Potter and the goblet of fire.

209
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:21,520
Oh.

210
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:22,520
Yeah.

211
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,040
I have a fun fact for you though.

212
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,040
Give it to me.

213
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,040
A little shimmy.

214
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:34,280
Well, sirens actually started out as human bird hybrids and over time, the lore kind of

215
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,280
merged with mermaids.

216
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:37,280
Merged with them.

217
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:38,280
I don't like that.

218
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,720
Yeah, I don't know why they like turn to them aquatic.

219
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,400
Oh, I'm okay with them being aquatic.

220
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,400
I don't like the bird.

221
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:47,400
Yeah.

222
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:48,400
You have to watch this clip though.

223
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,360
So open the email I sent you.

224
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,360
Damn it.

225
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,560
There is a siren in what we do in the shadows.

226
00:09:54,560 --> 00:09:57,320
That is kind of the older version of a siren.

227
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,720
And I just want you to watch it because it's very, it's, he he.

228
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,720
She's like a Jersey girl.

229
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,720
Is that what it is?

230
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,720
Yeah.

231
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:07,720
Like Jersey Shore.

232
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:08,720
Oh, yeah.

233
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:09,720
Jersey Shore.

234
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:10,720
Yeah.

235
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:16,880
The only thing I hate more than when someone tries to interrupt my song is when they join

236
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:17,880
in.

237
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,440
Is it me or is she hideous?

238
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:26,640
We are in the presence of a siren.

239
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:27,640
Yeah.

240
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,240
Where is she just pulled out of her mouth?

241
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,640
It was like a bone probably.

242
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:34,640
My god.

243
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:39,480
She's like eating things and birds.

244
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,480
It's so funny.

245
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,860
- It's perfect. - You have to watch it.

246
00:10:43,860 --> 00:10:45,360
- It's great.

247
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,280
- So I'm just glad they really represented

248
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,760
the old school siren, you know?

249
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,600
- Yeah.

250
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,100
(chiming)

251
00:10:53,100 --> 00:10:56,580
- So depending on who you ask,

252
00:10:56,580 --> 00:11:00,480
Mermaids can symbolize both fortune and misfortune.

253
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:06,580
Like the sea they can be both beautiful and deadly.

254
00:11:06,580 --> 00:11:09,580
- Yeah. - Very deadly, the sea.

255
00:11:09,580 --> 00:11:10,540
- All right, dot lie.

256
00:11:10,540 --> 00:11:12,260
- What did I say the other day about Tennessee?

257
00:11:12,260 --> 00:11:13,980
I was like severely haunted,

258
00:11:13,980 --> 00:11:15,380
(laughing)

259
00:11:15,380 --> 00:11:17,340
to see severely haunted.

260
00:11:17,340 --> 00:11:20,540
- Not really haunted. - Sivirly deadly play.

261
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:22,580
(laughing)

262
00:11:22,580 --> 00:11:25,100
I did not even remember I said that when I heard it.

263
00:11:25,100 --> 00:11:27,260
I was like, what the fuck was I even saying?

264
00:11:27,260 --> 00:11:30,420
Tennessee - severely haunted.

265
00:11:30,420 --> 00:11:32,180
(laughing)

266
00:11:32,180 --> 00:11:33,620
Oh God.

267
00:11:33,620 --> 00:11:38,020
- Okay, so like the sea, blue bit of blue, deadly.

268
00:11:38,020 --> 00:11:40,060
- Blue bit, blue, blue, blue, blue.

269
00:11:40,060 --> 00:11:45,060
They were used as figure heads on ships

270
00:11:45,060 --> 00:11:48,940
as kind of an offering to the sea for safe travels.

271
00:11:48,940 --> 00:11:50,700
- Oh, that's interesting.

272
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:54,140
- So like the pretty blopshuous mermaid on the ship

273
00:11:54,140 --> 00:11:57,500
was as like a good omen for there.

274
00:11:57,500 --> 00:11:58,340
- Okay.

275
00:11:58,340 --> 00:11:59,180
- What's it called?

276
00:11:59,180 --> 00:12:00,740
Sailor ship?

277
00:12:00,740 --> 00:12:02,460
Do you sail a ship?

278
00:12:02,460 --> 00:12:03,300
- Yeah.

279
00:12:03,300 --> 00:12:04,820
- Or do you sail just a sailboat?

280
00:12:04,820 --> 00:12:08,140
- No, I think it can be sailing.

281
00:12:08,140 --> 00:12:10,740
I think that's the right term for more than one type of.

282
00:12:10,740 --> 00:12:11,820
- So sail.

283
00:12:11,820 --> 00:12:13,100
- Yeah.

284
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:15,020
And if it's not like whatever,

285
00:12:15,020 --> 00:12:16,660
we're not sailors.

286
00:12:16,660 --> 00:12:17,500
- Right, so.

287
00:12:17,500 --> 00:12:19,780
- I had to look up nautical terms for this in a film.

288
00:12:19,780 --> 00:12:21,100
(laughing)

289
00:12:21,100 --> 00:12:22,100
I love it.

290
00:12:22,100 --> 00:12:25,780
- And if you were to travel to Portland's sister city,

291
00:12:25,780 --> 00:12:28,220
And if you were to travel to Portland’s sister city Mutare Zimbabwe,

292
00:12:28,220 --> 00:12:31,860
ooh, and ask them what they think of mermaids.

293
00:12:31,860 --> 00:12:36,340
They would probably lean towards the misfortune or deadly side.

294
00:12:36,340 --> 00:12:38,860
- Okay.

295
00:12:38,860 --> 00:12:42,700
Dam workers, not damn workers, but like dam workers.

296
00:12:42,700 --> 00:12:43,700
- God damn workers.

297
00:12:43,700 --> 00:12:45,620
(laughing)

298
00:12:45,620 --> 00:12:47,620
- Those GD dam workers.

299
00:12:47,620 --> 00:12:51,780
- Dam, dam workers, all over Zimbabwe,

300
00:12:51,780 --> 00:12:56,460
including Mutare, are being scared away from job sites

301
00:12:56,460 --> 00:12:58,740
by aggressive mermaid attacks.

302
00:13:00,260 --> 00:13:03,260
- Like this is like real, like this isn't the news.

303
00:13:03,260 --> 00:13:07,780
- Okay, it's straight up mermaid mayhem in this bitch.

304
00:13:07,780 --> 00:13:10,140
(laughing)

305
00:13:10,140 --> 00:13:12,620
- Well, some get away to tell their stories.

306
00:13:12,620 --> 00:13:15,220
Others, sadly, are never seen again.

307
00:13:15,220 --> 00:13:17,420
- Okay, that doesn't sound very mermaidy.

308
00:13:17,420 --> 00:13:18,260
- Not well.

309
00:13:18,260 --> 00:13:19,100
- It sounds more like.

310
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:19,940
- More sireny.

311
00:13:19,940 --> 00:13:20,780
- Yeah.

312
00:13:20,780 --> 00:13:23,060
- But these mermaids are not good over in Zimbabwe.

313
00:13:23,060 --> 00:13:24,260
You gotta watch your back.

314
00:13:24,260 --> 00:13:25,820
- Okay.

315
00:13:25,820 --> 00:13:30,820
- This is a huge problem to have at a dam that provides water

316
00:13:30,820 --> 00:13:33,100
to the people.

317
00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:33,940
- Yeah.

318
00:13:33,940 --> 00:13:37,780
- So when it breaks and people are too scared to go and fix it,

319
00:13:37,780 --> 00:13:39,580
people are kind of fucked out of water.

320
00:13:39,580 --> 00:13:40,820
- Yeah, that's a problem.

321
00:13:40,820 --> 00:13:41,700
- It is a problem.

322
00:13:41,700 --> 00:13:42,780
- Yeah.

323
00:13:42,780 --> 00:13:46,780
- This was back, I think in like 2012, but they were doing

324
00:13:46,780 --> 00:13:50,020
everything they could to make the water safe again,

325
00:13:50,020 --> 00:13:53,180
performing rituals and traditional rights,

326
00:13:53,180 --> 00:13:57,780
even brewing special beer to appease the malicious mermaids.

327
00:13:57,780 --> 00:13:59,220
- I mean, I'm all about that.

328
00:13:59,220 --> 00:14:00,060
- Right.

329
00:14:00,060 --> 00:14:02,500
- I mean, I know we have our whole heart take about,

330
00:14:02,500 --> 00:14:07,180
that's a problem, you guys, but the beer sounds pretty good.

331
00:14:07,180 --> 00:14:08,020
- Mm-hmm.

332
00:14:08,020 --> 00:14:08,860
- What kind of beer?

333
00:14:08,860 --> 00:14:10,500
Do we have any information on that?

334
00:14:10,500 --> 00:14:13,980
- I try to look, but I didn't try that hard.

335
00:14:13,980 --> 00:14:15,060
- Yeah.

336
00:14:15,060 --> 00:14:16,980
- It's kind of an ancillary detail.

337
00:14:16,980 --> 00:14:19,460
- Yeah, and an initial goug of like,

338
00:14:19,460 --> 00:14:23,620
what is a Zimbabwe beer that scares the mermaid's away?

339
00:14:23,620 --> 00:14:25,420
It didn't really get me very far.

340
00:14:25,420 --> 00:14:28,940
If you can imagine.

341
00:14:28,940 --> 00:14:29,780
- Oh my God.

342
00:14:29,780 --> 00:14:30,900
- Mermaid repellent.

343
00:14:30,900 --> 00:14:31,900
- Yeah, mermaid.

344
00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:33,300
(laughs)

345
00:14:33,300 --> 00:14:35,260
So yeah, so I don't know if the beer was like an offering

346
00:14:35,260 --> 00:14:37,580
or if it like literally repelled them away.

347
00:14:37,580 --> 00:14:38,420
- Yeah.

348
00:14:38,420 --> 00:14:41,060
- Maybe we drink the beer and just like get too drunk

349
00:14:41,060 --> 00:14:42,940
to care about the mermaids?

350
00:14:42,940 --> 00:14:45,180
- I think that's a strong theory as well.

351
00:14:45,180 --> 00:14:47,460
- It's probably also dangerous around the dam though.

352
00:14:47,460 --> 00:14:48,300
I don't know.

353
00:14:48,300 --> 00:14:49,500
- This sounds good.

354
00:14:49,500 --> 00:14:51,980
- Yeah, I mean the whole thing, again guys, hot take,

355
00:14:51,980 --> 00:14:53,100
but not good.

356
00:14:53,100 --> 00:14:57,060
It's not good.

357
00:14:57,060 --> 00:14:59,980
It's not good and not only that, it's also bad.

358
00:14:59,980 --> 00:15:03,740
- Mermaids are bad and kind of good.

359
00:15:03,740 --> 00:15:05,740
(laughs)

360
00:15:05,740 --> 00:15:10,980
Zimbabweans are not unfamiliar with the supernatural.

361
00:15:10,980 --> 00:15:15,540
And these dam mermaids are a big part

362
00:15:15,540 --> 00:15:16,940
of their spiritual beliefs.

363
00:15:16,940 --> 00:15:21,300
So literally the mermaids are only in the dams.

364
00:15:21,300 --> 00:15:24,140
Like their dam(n) mermaids.

365
00:15:24,140 --> 00:15:25,100
- I don't, okay.

366
00:15:25,100 --> 00:15:25,940
- Yeah.

367
00:15:25,940 --> 00:15:29,020
- I see what you did there double entendre,

368
00:15:29,020 --> 00:15:32,340
but how does that happen?

369
00:15:32,340 --> 00:15:35,180
- I don't know, it's just a thing with like all of their dams

370
00:15:35,180 --> 00:15:36,020
have mermaids.

371
00:15:36,020 --> 00:15:39,540
I'm, to me it feels like the mermaid is kind of like

372
00:15:39,540 --> 00:15:41,580
the protector of the water and they,

373
00:15:41,580 --> 00:15:43,140
they don't like the dams obviously

374
00:15:43,140 --> 00:15:46,180
'cause they fuck with the natural flow of the earth.

375
00:15:46,180 --> 00:15:48,340
- Or the waterways.

376
00:15:48,340 --> 00:15:49,140
- Yeah, that makes sense.

377
00:15:49,140 --> 00:15:50,140
- That's my theory anyway.

378
00:15:50,140 --> 00:15:51,580
- They're like preservationists.

379
00:15:51,580 --> 00:15:52,580
- Right.

380
00:15:52,580 --> 00:15:56,380
- Which kind of makes sense with their whole vibe later.

381
00:15:56,380 --> 00:15:58,660
Yeah, we're gonna get into all that too.

382
00:15:58,660 --> 00:16:01,820
- But I mean, dam water isn't that freshwater?

383
00:16:01,820 --> 00:16:04,460
It's not like salty sea water.

384
00:16:04,460 --> 00:16:05,460
- No, it's not.

385
00:16:05,460 --> 00:16:07,580
They're freshwater mermaids.

386
00:16:07,580 --> 00:16:12,580
- I'm, you're never too old to learn something new.

387
00:16:12,580 --> 00:16:14,180
- Unless these dams are in the ocean,

388
00:16:14,180 --> 00:16:15,660
but I don't think so.

389
00:16:15,660 --> 00:16:17,540
- I didn't look at a map of like some like way.

390
00:16:17,540 --> 00:16:18,900
- You're like, I need to see you.

391
00:16:18,900 --> 00:16:19,900
(laughing)

392
00:16:19,900 --> 00:16:22,220
- I need to look up where all the dams are

393
00:16:22,220 --> 00:16:23,460
in the aboveway.

394
00:16:23,460 --> 00:16:24,300
- I got.

395
00:16:24,300 --> 00:16:24,980
- That's wild.

396
00:16:24,980 --> 00:16:25,980
- Okay.

397
00:16:25,980 --> 00:16:28,980
The mermaids are a big part of their spiritual beliefs.

398
00:16:28,980 --> 00:16:32,580
Obviously still there are some zimbabweans

399
00:16:32,580 --> 00:16:34,020
who are skeptical,

400
00:16:34,020 --> 00:16:37,580
blaming it on the unpredictable hazardous currents

401
00:16:37,580 --> 00:16:39,220
creating illusions in the dams.

402
00:16:39,220 --> 00:16:40,220
- Okay.

403
00:16:40,220 --> 00:16:41,500
I mean, I could see that.

404
00:16:42,540 --> 00:16:47,540
The earliest known mermaid tale is from 1000 BC

405
00:16:47,540 --> 00:16:51,620
about a Syrian goddess named Atargatis.

406
00:16:51,620 --> 00:16:52,620
- Oh.

407
00:16:52,620 --> 00:16:55,540
- She was a goddess of fertility and protection,

408
00:16:55,540 --> 00:16:57,620
water and the moon.

409
00:16:57,620 --> 00:16:58,460
So we like her.

410
00:16:58,460 --> 00:17:00,100
- Oh, yeah.

411
00:17:00,100 --> 00:17:01,860
I see you, you found.

412
00:17:01,860 --> 00:17:04,220
- Maybe not so much the fertility stuff for us,

413
00:17:04,220 --> 00:17:05,140
but for others.

414
00:17:05,140 --> 00:17:09,980
- I mean, you know, broad term fertility, you know?

415
00:17:09,980 --> 00:17:10,820
- Yeah.

416
00:17:10,820 --> 00:17:12,780
- For people who want it.

417
00:17:12,780 --> 00:17:16,140
- I mean, it doesn't have to be necessarily fertility

418
00:17:16,140 --> 00:17:19,180
in the way that I feel like we always apply it.

419
00:17:19,180 --> 00:17:24,180
- For general fertility reproductive organ health.

420
00:17:24,180 --> 00:17:25,020
- Yeah.

421
00:17:25,020 --> 00:17:25,860
- Let's go with that.

422
00:17:25,860 --> 00:17:26,700
- Yeah.

423
00:17:26,700 --> 00:17:30,380
I mean, I feel like at that point in history,

424
00:17:30,380 --> 00:17:35,060
too though they sort of viewed fertility,

425
00:17:35,060 --> 00:17:37,820
obviously in terms of reproduction,

426
00:17:37,820 --> 00:17:41,220
but think about it too in terms of like the land being

427
00:17:41,220 --> 00:17:43,060
for unlike your previous.

428
00:17:43,060 --> 00:17:45,340
- Like enough fish in the sea.

429
00:17:45,340 --> 00:17:46,500
- Yeah, you're right.

430
00:17:46,500 --> 00:17:47,580
We have talked about that before.

431
00:17:47,580 --> 00:17:48,620
- Take it back to food.

432
00:17:48,620 --> 00:17:49,460
- Yes.

433
00:17:49,460 --> 00:17:50,300
- That's where we live.

434
00:17:50,300 --> 00:17:51,300
That's our happy place.

435
00:17:51,300 --> 00:17:52,140
- You know.

436
00:17:52,140 --> 00:17:55,100
- Enough beer for everyone.

437
00:17:55,100 --> 00:17:58,180
- Got some beer, got some fish.

438
00:17:58,180 --> 00:18:03,180
- So the story of Atargatis might sound a little familiar

439
00:18:03,180 --> 00:18:04,540
to start.

440
00:18:04,540 --> 00:18:07,940
- She fell in love with a regular human mans.

441
00:18:07,940 --> 00:18:09,140
- Oh no.

442
00:18:09,140 --> 00:18:09,980
- Don't do it.

443
00:18:09,980 --> 00:18:11,220
- Don't ever do that.

444
00:18:11,220 --> 00:18:12,060
- Don't do it.

445
00:18:12,060 --> 00:18:12,900
- It's dangerous.

446
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:13,740
- Yeah.

447
00:18:13,740 --> 00:18:14,740
- You end up getting married.

448
00:18:14,740 --> 00:18:15,580
- Yeah.

449
00:18:15,580 --> 00:18:19,020
- Funny you should say that.

450
00:18:19,020 --> 00:18:19,860
- Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

451
00:18:19,860 --> 00:18:21,420
- I'm getting married soon.

452
00:18:21,420 --> 00:18:22,260
- Yeah.

453
00:18:22,260 --> 00:18:25,380
- Well, and not to totally give anything away,

454
00:18:25,380 --> 00:18:30,380
but I do have a story coming up about the deadly,

455
00:18:33,140 --> 00:18:35,740
the, what did you say?

456
00:18:35,740 --> 00:18:39,260
It was like the seriously deadly or?

457
00:18:39,260 --> 00:18:41,300
- Oh, severely.

458
00:18:41,300 --> 00:18:42,140
- Yeah.

459
00:18:42,140 --> 00:18:44,620
- The severe deadliness of what?

460
00:18:44,620 --> 00:18:49,180
- I actually read that last night and it was not good.

461
00:18:49,180 --> 00:18:50,020
- Yeah.

462
00:18:50,020 --> 00:18:51,420
- That story was not good.

463
00:18:51,420 --> 00:18:52,260
- Terrible.

464
00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:53,100
- Don't listen to it.

465
00:18:53,100 --> 00:18:54,780
(laughing)

466
00:18:54,780 --> 00:18:56,100
- Is it or is it not?

467
00:18:56,100 --> 00:19:00,460
Like it reads like a story that I wrote specifically

468
00:19:00,460 --> 00:19:03,700
to be all of Christopher's Nightmare Fuel?

469
00:19:03,700 --> 00:19:04,540
- Yeah.

470
00:19:04,540 --> 00:19:05,380
- It does.

471
00:19:05,380 --> 00:19:06,540
- It's like, I can't even--

472
00:19:06,540 --> 00:19:08,020
- I was like, well, she's mean.

473
00:19:08,020 --> 00:19:09,100
(laughing)

474
00:19:09,100 --> 00:19:09,940
- I told him.

475
00:19:09,940 --> 00:19:14,140
I was like, I think we went back and forth.

476
00:19:14,140 --> 00:19:17,460
So he hasn't read it and we haven't recorded it yet

477
00:19:17,460 --> 00:19:20,900
'cause spoiler alert Chris is going to record that one with me

478
00:19:20,900 --> 00:19:22,900
and I was like, maybe I'll have him read it first

479
00:19:22,900 --> 00:19:25,500
and then I was like, no, don't.

480
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:26,340
- Yeah.

481
00:19:26,340 --> 00:19:30,260
- Let the horror sink in real time.

482
00:19:30,260 --> 00:19:31,620
- Make him cry.

483
00:19:31,620 --> 00:19:32,700
(laughing)

484
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:34,460
If he doesn't cry, he's a monster.

485
00:19:34,460 --> 00:19:36,060
- I seriously doubt he'll cry.

486
00:19:36,060 --> 00:19:37,660
He's just not really a cryer,

487
00:19:37,660 --> 00:19:39,620
but just have to get eyedrops in him

488
00:19:39,620 --> 00:19:41,540
and then return back to the camera.

489
00:19:41,540 --> 00:19:42,780
- It's a little movie magic.

490
00:19:42,780 --> 00:19:43,620
- Go, yeah.

491
00:19:43,620 --> 00:19:44,340
(laughing)

492
00:19:44,340 --> 00:19:45,340
- Okay.

493
00:19:45,340 --> 00:19:46,180
Back to peace.

494
00:19:46,180 --> 00:19:47,220
- Back to Atargatis.

495
00:19:47,220 --> 00:19:48,060
- Yes.

496
00:19:48,060 --> 00:19:51,220
- She fell in love with his regular human man's

497
00:19:51,220 --> 00:19:53,540
and they end up having a daughter together.

498
00:19:53,540 --> 00:19:54,380
- Okay.

499
00:19:54,380 --> 00:19:55,780
- More fertility.

500
00:19:55,780 --> 00:19:56,940
- For color. - For color.

501
00:19:56,940 --> 00:19:57,940
- For color.

502
00:19:57,940 --> 00:20:00,260
- The myth sort of flip-flops here.

503
00:20:00,260 --> 00:20:05,100
One story says that her lovemaking was so powerful

504
00:20:05,100 --> 00:20:08,940
that she ends up accidentally killing her love.

505
00:20:08,940 --> 00:20:10,220
- Oh shit.

506
00:20:10,220 --> 00:20:14,180
Like in the, oh my gosh, that Amazon show, The Boys.

507
00:20:14,180 --> 00:20:15,020
- Oh, yeah.

508
00:20:15,020 --> 00:20:16,540
- I haven't seen it, spoiler alert.

509
00:20:16,540 --> 00:20:19,860
- Oh, well, listen, they're on like season four now.

510
00:20:19,860 --> 00:20:21,820
- I knew what I was literally gonna watch that.

511
00:20:21,820 --> 00:20:23,820
You totally just wanted that for me.

512
00:20:23,820 --> 00:20:25,300
- Yeah, we're gonna pick it up.

513
00:20:25,300 --> 00:20:26,300
- I won't remember.

514
00:20:26,300 --> 00:20:27,140
- No, you won't.

515
00:20:27,140 --> 00:20:29,380
It only pertains to like one episode.

516
00:20:29,380 --> 00:20:30,220
- Okay.

517
00:20:30,220 --> 00:20:31,060
- Yeah.

518
00:20:31,060 --> 00:20:31,900
- And you won't see it coming.

519
00:20:31,900 --> 00:20:33,380
- Okay, good.

520
00:20:33,380 --> 00:20:36,340
- I mean, she is a goddess, you know,

521
00:20:36,340 --> 00:20:39,340
and he's just like some regular dude.

522
00:20:39,340 --> 00:20:43,140
So, he just wasn't enough, you know?

523
00:20:43,140 --> 00:20:44,900
(laughing)

524
00:20:44,900 --> 00:20:46,780
- Oh my god, that's amazing.

525
00:20:46,780 --> 00:20:47,780
Bring it back.

526
00:20:47,780 --> 00:20:50,580
I'm just kidding.

527
00:20:50,580 --> 00:20:52,540
So good.

528
00:20:52,540 --> 00:20:53,540
Such a good movie.

529
00:20:53,540 --> 00:20:54,820
- It's really just my favorite.

530
00:20:54,820 --> 00:20:56,860
- Can we re-watch that?

531
00:20:56,860 --> 00:20:57,700
- All day.

532
00:20:57,700 --> 00:20:58,540
- Yeah.

533
00:20:58,540 --> 00:20:59,380
- Yeah.

534
00:20:59,380 --> 00:21:00,220
- Okay.

535
00:21:00,220 --> 00:21:01,060
- We have to see John Cena.

536
00:21:01,060 --> 00:21:02,140
That was a mermaid.

537
00:21:02,140 --> 00:21:02,980
- Yeah.

538
00:21:02,980 --> 00:21:03,820
- Mermaids.

539
00:21:03,820 --> 00:21:05,500
- It's a very serious role.

540
00:21:05,500 --> 00:21:06,340
(laughing)

541
00:21:06,340 --> 00:21:07,340
- Just pause it on that.

542
00:21:07,340 --> 00:21:08,220
We're just like a little bit

543
00:21:08,220 --> 00:21:09,540
'cause he's in it really a second.

544
00:21:09,540 --> 00:21:10,540
(laughing)

545
00:21:10,540 --> 00:21:11,380
- Yeah.

546
00:21:11,380 --> 00:21:13,980
(laughing)

547
00:21:13,980 --> 00:21:17,980
But, Atargatis was understandably so devastated

548
00:21:17,980 --> 00:21:21,500
that she took to the water intending to live out her life

549
00:21:21,500 --> 00:21:22,780
as an ugly fish.

550
00:21:22,780 --> 00:21:26,380
She just wanted to be a pout, pout fish

551
00:21:26,380 --> 00:21:28,180
with a pout, pout face spreading.

552
00:21:28,180 --> 00:21:31,260
- spreading the dreary-wearies all over the place!

553
00:21:31,260 --> 00:21:32,100
- Oh my goodness.

554
00:21:32,100 --> 00:21:33,020
- That's from a kid's book.

555
00:21:33,020 --> 00:21:33,860
I was a nanny.

556
00:21:33,860 --> 00:21:34,900
I apologize.

557
00:21:34,900 --> 00:21:36,740
- Yeah, I was like, um.

558
00:21:36,740 --> 00:21:37,980
- Sorry, not sorry.

559
00:21:37,980 --> 00:21:40,980
- Was it like, is that from Finding Nemo or?

560
00:21:40,980 --> 00:21:41,820
- That was really good.

561
00:21:41,820 --> 00:21:43,060
You should write a children's book.

562
00:21:43,060 --> 00:21:43,900
- Yeah.

563
00:21:43,900 --> 00:21:45,660
(laughing)

564
00:21:45,660 --> 00:21:49,380
- Also in another version, the reason for her watery escape

565
00:21:49,380 --> 00:21:53,180
was because she was ashamed about having a child

566
00:21:53,180 --> 00:21:54,660
with a mortal.

567
00:21:54,660 --> 00:21:55,540
- Oh.

568
00:21:55,540 --> 00:21:59,220
- So I don't know, the first version of the story is sad,

569
00:21:59,220 --> 00:22:02,700
but this one just breaks my heart a little bit.

570
00:22:02,700 --> 00:22:04,420
So I prefer the first.

571
00:22:04,420 --> 00:22:06,940
- Oh no, maybe figure your life out, you know.

572
00:22:06,940 --> 00:22:08,020
- Don't be ashamed to your kids.

573
00:22:08,020 --> 00:22:08,860
It's not there.

574
00:22:08,860 --> 00:22:09,700
They didn't do any of it.

575
00:22:09,700 --> 00:22:10,540
- You're the one with scale.

576
00:22:10,540 --> 00:22:11,700
- Your choice is.

577
00:22:11,700 --> 00:22:12,540
- Yeah.

578
00:22:12,540 --> 00:22:14,260
- Fins, jerf.

579
00:22:14,260 --> 00:22:16,820
- Especially because her daughter becomes the queen

580
00:22:16,820 --> 00:22:18,980
of Syria later.

581
00:22:18,980 --> 00:22:19,820
- Oh shit.

582
00:22:19,820 --> 00:22:20,660
- Yeah.

583
00:22:20,660 --> 00:22:22,500
- So there's really nothing to be ashamed about.

584
00:22:22,500 --> 00:22:25,260
- Seriously, she's like, what of?

585
00:22:25,260 --> 00:22:26,900
- Some queen material, okay.

586
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:29,340
Just over here, crushing it, even though my mom's like,

587
00:22:29,340 --> 00:22:31,580
not that proud of me, whatever.

588
00:22:31,580 --> 00:22:32,740
Hopefully that's not true.

589
00:22:32,740 --> 00:22:36,780
Hopefully she was sad about killing her lover,

590
00:22:36,780 --> 00:22:37,980
doing sex.

591
00:22:37,980 --> 00:22:42,580
In any case, she was apparently too beautiful today.

592
00:22:42,580 --> 00:22:44,820
So she turned into a sea creature,

593
00:22:44,820 --> 00:22:48,260
human top, fish bottom, aka mermaid.

594
00:22:48,260 --> 00:22:49,100
Okay.

595
00:22:49,100 --> 00:22:50,580
So she went to kill herself in the sea

596
00:22:50,580 --> 00:22:52,660
and she just turned into a mermaid

597
00:22:52,660 --> 00:22:55,380
because the sea was like, you too beautiful girl.

598
00:22:55,380 --> 00:22:56,380
- Wow.

599
00:22:56,380 --> 00:22:58,420
- We're not killing you today.

600
00:22:58,420 --> 00:22:59,580
- All right.

601
00:22:59,580 --> 00:23:01,660
- We're just gonna give you gills n' fins.

602
00:23:01,660 --> 00:23:02,660
(laughing)

603
00:23:02,660 --> 00:23:04,460
- Like, that's not up to you.

604
00:23:04,460 --> 00:23:09,260
You creepy, ominous body of water.

605
00:23:09,260 --> 00:23:11,140
- I just love, I love myths.

606
00:23:11,140 --> 00:23:12,580
- There's a lot. - Yeah.

607
00:23:12,580 --> 00:23:14,100
- Very interesting.

608
00:23:14,100 --> 00:23:14,940
Okay.

609
00:23:14,940 --> 00:23:18,620
We're going to flow with a different current now.

610
00:23:18,620 --> 00:23:22,540
In 2012, a documentary was released

611
00:23:22,540 --> 00:23:24,860
in the US on Animal Planet.

612
00:23:24,860 --> 00:23:29,540
It was called Mermaids: The Body Found.

613
00:23:29,540 --> 00:23:32,460
As the title suggests,

614
00:23:32,460 --> 00:23:35,260
they're investigating the existence of mermaids.

615
00:23:35,260 --> 00:23:36,100
- Okay.

616
00:23:36,100 --> 00:23:39,100
- The first thing that inspired this documentary

617
00:23:39,100 --> 00:23:42,540
was the bloop, the bloop,

618
00:23:42,540 --> 00:23:45,820
a previously unexplained sound recorded under water

619
00:23:45,820 --> 00:23:48,780
by scientists in 1997.

620
00:23:48,780 --> 00:23:49,660
Okay.

621
00:23:49,660 --> 00:23:53,780
So, I want you to pull up the clip of the bloop, the bloop.

622
00:23:53,780 --> 00:23:54,620
- Oh yeah, there we go.

623
00:23:54,620 --> 00:23:56,180
Listen to the bloop.

624
00:23:56,180 --> 00:23:57,340
Don't mind if I do.

625
00:23:57,340 --> 00:23:58,660
- It's blue.

626
00:23:58,660 --> 00:24:01,100
- I feel like there's a lot of bloops in the ocean,

627
00:24:01,100 --> 00:24:02,380
you know?

628
00:24:02,380 --> 00:24:05,260
Bloops and fish poops.

629
00:24:05,260 --> 00:24:06,340
- I don't think bloops.

630
00:24:06,340 --> 00:24:08,180
- It literally goes bloop.

631
00:24:08,180 --> 00:24:10,700
(laughing)

632
00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:12,580
- So at the end of the documentary,

633
00:24:12,580 --> 00:24:15,220
they end up finding their own bloops.

634
00:24:15,220 --> 00:24:18,540
And long story short, they think the bloopities

635
00:24:18,540 --> 00:24:22,660
are sound made from mermaids communicating underwater.

636
00:24:22,660 --> 00:24:25,380
- That's how they communicate with farts?

637
00:24:25,380 --> 00:24:28,140
- Yeah, that's literally.

638
00:24:28,140 --> 00:24:29,900
- To mermaids, to fish fart?

639
00:24:29,900 --> 00:24:33,260
To fish a, I mean, they poop.

640
00:24:33,260 --> 00:24:34,740
They're buttholes.

641
00:24:34,740 --> 00:24:35,780
Do they fart?

642
00:24:35,780 --> 00:24:38,020
Somebody let us know with fish farts.

643
00:24:38,020 --> 00:24:39,260
- She's Google-ing it.

644
00:24:39,260 --> 00:24:41,100
(laughing)

645
00:24:41,100 --> 00:24:42,980
- This is so weird.

646
00:24:42,980 --> 00:24:44,820
The answer is weird.

647
00:24:44,820 --> 00:24:46,580
It's a little, I don't know.

648
00:24:46,580 --> 00:24:47,740
- It's not a answer, no?

649
00:24:47,740 --> 00:24:49,380
- It's not a, yeah, okay.

650
00:24:49,380 --> 00:24:52,780
So if you consider farting to be the byproduct

651
00:24:52,780 --> 00:24:57,180
of digestion in parentheses, guesses,

652
00:24:57,180 --> 00:24:59,660
expelled solely through the rear end,

653
00:24:59,660 --> 00:25:02,660
then no, most fish don't fart.

654
00:25:02,660 --> 00:25:07,460
But apparently they, it seems like,

655
00:25:07,460 --> 00:25:10,820
it seems like yes, they fart,

656
00:25:10,820 --> 00:25:13,420
but maybe not in a way that we think of it.

657
00:25:13,420 --> 00:25:14,580
- Do they fart out their mouth?

658
00:25:14,580 --> 00:25:15,860
Is that what the bubbles come from?

659
00:25:15,860 --> 00:25:17,860
They go bloop, bloop, bloop,

660
00:25:17,860 --> 00:25:19,020
from their mouth?

661
00:25:19,020 --> 00:25:20,540
- Listen to this, that's okay.

662
00:25:20,540 --> 00:25:23,260
So I was reading just the portion of it

663
00:25:23,260 --> 00:25:25,780
that I could see in the Google preview.

664
00:25:25,780 --> 00:25:27,580
So I click the link and it says,

665
00:25:27,580 --> 00:25:31,620
"Most fish don't fart with the exception

666
00:25:31,620 --> 00:25:35,380
"of herring and sand sharks."

667
00:25:35,380 --> 00:25:36,700
Apparently they fart.

668
00:25:36,700 --> 00:25:41,220
- Herring and sand sharks.

669
00:25:41,220 --> 00:25:43,100
- Uh-huh, see it sharks fart?

670
00:25:43,100 --> 00:25:44,820
- I guess so.

671
00:25:44,820 --> 00:25:46,700
- That is a really fun shark fact

672
00:25:46,700 --> 00:25:48,940
that you're never gonna forget.

673
00:25:48,940 --> 00:25:49,780
- No.

674
00:25:49,780 --> 00:25:50,980
- And we're gonna share with everyone

675
00:25:50,980 --> 00:25:53,940
who shows a little bit of interest in sharks.

676
00:25:53,940 --> 00:25:55,900
- That is so weird.

677
00:25:55,900 --> 00:25:57,780
- Sharks are in this episode too.

678
00:25:57,780 --> 00:25:58,620
- I'm really good.

679
00:25:58,620 --> 00:26:00,500
I'm going down a rabbit hole with this.

680
00:26:00,500 --> 00:26:01,340
- Okay.

681
00:26:01,340 --> 00:26:02,980
- Get out of your rabbit hole, we gotta finish.

682
00:26:02,980 --> 00:26:05,940
- Yeah, I found a university of Maryland,

683
00:26:05,940 --> 00:26:08,180
quote, on the fish farting and,

684
00:26:08,180 --> 00:26:09,020
- Okay, read it.

685
00:26:09,020 --> 00:26:11,300
- They say, "No one knows for sure

686
00:26:11,300 --> 00:26:14,900
"what purpose farting serves in any fish."

687
00:26:14,900 --> 00:26:19,860
- Well, I just got to wish.

688
00:26:19,860 --> 00:26:22,900
- The wildlife is really fucking mysterious.

689
00:26:22,900 --> 00:26:23,740
- Yeah.

690
00:26:23,740 --> 00:26:25,380
(whooshing)

691
00:26:25,380 --> 00:26:28,700
- You guys, we have something really exciting to share with you.

692
00:26:28,700 --> 00:26:32,860
- Let's hear a few words from our new pod besties.

693
00:26:32,860 --> 00:26:33,860
- Hi, I'm Shaun.

694
00:26:33,860 --> 00:26:34,780
- And I'm John.

695
00:26:34,780 --> 00:26:36,660
- We're the hosts of Sins and Survivors,

696
00:26:36,660 --> 00:26:38,820
a Las Vegas True Crime podcast.

697
00:26:38,820 --> 00:26:41,020
Each week we cover important true crime stories

698
00:26:41,020 --> 00:26:43,980
from Nevada, focusing on the Las Vegas area.

699
00:26:43,980 --> 00:26:45,940
We cover current cases in the news,

700
00:26:45,940 --> 00:26:48,340
as well as cold cases and missing persons,

701
00:26:48,340 --> 00:26:50,020
but there's a twist.

702
00:26:50,020 --> 00:26:51,780
- Our focus is primarily on crimes

703
00:26:51,780 --> 00:26:53,740
with a domestic violence component.

704
00:26:53,740 --> 00:26:56,020
Sins and survivors is centered on the victims

705
00:26:56,020 --> 00:26:57,820
and the families they leave behind.

706
00:26:57,820 --> 00:26:59,980
Our goal is not only to tell the stories,

707
00:26:59,980 --> 00:27:02,060
but also provide victims with resources

708
00:27:02,060 --> 00:27:03,940
to help in their own lives.

709
00:27:03,940 --> 00:27:05,500
- We're focused on Las Vegas,

710
00:27:05,500 --> 00:27:08,020
but as we'll remind you in every episode,

711
00:27:08,020 --> 00:27:10,820
what happens here happens everywhere.

712
00:27:10,820 --> 00:27:13,060
So listen now wherever you get your podcasts

713
00:27:13,060 --> 00:27:15,540

714
00:27:15,540 --> 00:27:18,060
- Check them out, creepy people.

715
00:27:18,060 --> 00:27:20,740
You can find their info in our show notes.

716
00:27:20,740 --> 00:27:24,940
- Okay, back to this documentary.

717
00:27:24,940 --> 00:27:29,620
They go on to explain how mermaids could exist

718
00:27:29,620 --> 00:27:32,700
using the aquatic ape theory,

719
00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:35,740
which in the absolute simplest terms,

720
00:27:35,740 --> 00:27:37,980
I'm not gonna deep dive on the aquatic apes,

721
00:27:37,980 --> 00:27:41,660
but it is that some of us evolved into sea humans

722
00:27:41,660 --> 00:27:43,620
instead of land humans, basically.

723
00:27:43,620 --> 00:27:44,900
- Okay, great.

724
00:27:44,900 --> 00:27:49,900
They feature a NOAA scientist really legitimizing things

725
00:27:49,900 --> 00:27:53,020
'cause Noah stands for National Oceanic

726
00:27:53,020 --> 00:27:55,140
and Atmospheric Administration.

727
00:27:55,140 --> 00:27:57,300
- Yeah. - Is real.

728
00:27:57,300 --> 00:27:59,100
- That makes me a little nervous though.

729
00:27:59,100 --> 00:28:02,100
Like I mean, I don't know.

730
00:28:02,100 --> 00:28:02,940
- It's a real thing.

731
00:28:02,940 --> 00:28:03,780
NOAA's a real thing.

732
00:28:03,780 --> 00:28:05,260
- Noah's for sure. - NOAA's for sure, legit.

733
00:28:05,260 --> 00:28:07,940
- Yeah. - So this is legit, you know?

734
00:28:07,940 --> 00:28:11,020
How out of context are they gonna quote this person

735
00:28:11,020 --> 00:28:12,860
to make it fit their documentary?

736
00:28:12,860 --> 00:28:14,460
- Oh, it wasn't out of context.

737
00:28:14,460 --> 00:28:15,900
He was in the documentary.

738
00:28:15,900 --> 00:28:18,660
He was their expert.

739
00:28:18,660 --> 00:28:20,180
- Okay. - Yeah.

740
00:28:20,180 --> 00:28:21,340
- Right.

741
00:28:21,340 --> 00:28:22,940
- Throughout the documentary,

742
00:28:22,940 --> 00:28:27,020
they go over all kinds of historical, scientific video

743
00:28:27,020 --> 00:28:29,220
and even physical evidence.

744
00:28:29,220 --> 00:28:32,620
I mean, it's called the body found, right?

745
00:28:32,620 --> 00:28:36,340
So like they have a body assume, assume,

746
00:28:36,340 --> 00:28:37,780
- Presumably. - Presumably.

747
00:28:37,780 --> 00:28:39,180
- Assumably.

748
00:28:39,180 --> 00:28:41,100
Assumably. - I meant presumably,

749
00:28:41,100 --> 00:28:42,940
but Assumably. - But Assumably, sounds cooler.

750
00:28:42,940 --> 00:28:46,820
- This is our apology and making up words podcast.

751
00:28:46,820 --> 00:28:49,260
And then every time that we make up a new word,

752
00:28:49,260 --> 00:28:51,500
we laugh at it and then apologize.

753
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:54,020
- Every time we make up a new word, you have to drink.

754
00:28:54,020 --> 00:28:55,940
(laughing)

755
00:28:55,940 --> 00:28:57,300
- Oh my God, people will die.

756
00:28:57,300 --> 00:28:58,700
- I know. - Long with Caitlyn saying,

757
00:28:58,700 --> 00:29:01,620
"No, no, no, no."

758
00:29:01,620 --> 00:29:05,900
- Okay, so as I've learned from the Mel's Hole episode,

759
00:29:05,900 --> 00:29:10,900
I need to give a trigger warning for violence towards sharks.

760
00:29:10,900 --> 00:29:12,260
- Oh.

761
00:29:12,260 --> 00:29:14,100
- Told you there were sharks in this episode.

762
00:29:14,100 --> 00:29:15,420
- Yeah.

763
00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:18,500
- So the team found a dead shark

764
00:29:18,500 --> 00:29:22,220
with a peculiar spear hole in it.

765
00:29:22,220 --> 00:29:25,380
They say it's from a weapon made out

766
00:29:25,380 --> 00:29:28,220
of a steam raised hail thing of a bob.

767
00:29:28,220 --> 00:29:29,020
I don't know what it's called,

768
00:29:29,020 --> 00:29:30,740
thing of a bob, really.

769
00:29:30,740 --> 00:29:32,940
(laughing)

770
00:29:32,940 --> 00:29:34,740
- I just can't help myself, would I?

771
00:29:34,740 --> 00:29:35,980
- I mean, clearly.

772
00:29:35,980 --> 00:29:37,260
(laughing)

773
00:29:37,260 --> 00:29:38,100
- Who's it?

774
00:29:38,100 --> 00:29:38,940
- Who's it?

775
00:29:38,940 --> 00:29:39,780
- Yeah, that's right.

776
00:29:39,780 --> 00:29:41,260
- Who's it and what's it?

777
00:29:41,260 --> 00:29:44,660
- But, oh, well wait, there's more.

778
00:29:44,660 --> 00:29:45,660
- More, yes.

779
00:29:45,660 --> 00:29:50,020
- They also find bones inside the shark's belly.

780
00:29:50,020 --> 00:29:55,020
They are able to identify some pretty human looking parts.

781
00:29:55,020 --> 00:29:56,900
- Oh, yeah.

782
00:29:56,900 --> 00:29:59,100
Like something close to human anyway.

783
00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:00,380
- No thanks.

784
00:30:00,380 --> 00:30:01,780
- Like maybe a mermaid.

785
00:30:01,780 --> 00:30:03,340
- Like, yeah.

786
00:30:03,340 --> 00:30:05,220
- Adding wind to their sails,

787
00:30:05,220 --> 00:30:07,500
they disclose a cell phone video

788
00:30:07,500 --> 00:30:10,100
with a found footage vibe.

789
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:12,860
It showed some kids on a Washington beach

790
00:30:12,860 --> 00:30:15,380
that found a bunch of dead whales.

791
00:30:15,380 --> 00:30:17,900
And this is like a whole other thing in the documentary.

792
00:30:17,900 --> 00:30:20,100
Basically, they claim it's from the military testing

793
00:30:20,100 --> 00:30:21,260
Sonar or weapons.

794
00:30:21,260 --> 00:30:22,500
- Oh no.

795
00:30:22,500 --> 00:30:26,180
- But that's not even the weird part of this video.

796
00:30:26,180 --> 00:30:27,180
- Oh, okay.

797
00:30:27,180 --> 00:30:28,900
- Amongst these whales,

798
00:30:28,900 --> 00:30:32,180
there is the body of what appears to be a mermaid.

799
00:30:32,180 --> 00:30:33,220
I'm gonna have you watch it.

800
00:30:33,220 --> 00:30:34,700
There is a jump scare at the end,

801
00:30:34,700 --> 00:30:36,740
which is why I'm ruining it for you.

802
00:30:36,740 --> 00:30:38,660
- I'm already sweating.

803
00:30:38,660 --> 00:30:40,340
I'm telling you, there's a jump scare.

804
00:30:40,340 --> 00:30:43,220
So don't like, it's still going away.

805
00:30:43,220 --> 00:30:46,140
- You see the whales and the kids?

806
00:30:46,140 --> 00:30:46,980
- Yeah.

807
00:30:46,980 --> 00:30:49,740
This definitely looks like found footage, right?

808
00:30:49,740 --> 00:30:50,580
- Yeah.

809
00:30:50,580 --> 00:30:51,780
- Totally.

810
00:30:51,780 --> 00:30:53,340
Not at all like Cloverfield.

811
00:30:53,340 --> 00:30:56,420
Definitely from a cell phone.

812
00:30:56,420 --> 00:30:59,180
A 20, like, 2012 cell phone.

813
00:30:59,180 --> 00:31:00,020
- Yeah.

814
00:31:00,020 --> 00:31:01,420
- Two early 2000s.

815
00:31:01,420 --> 00:31:02,460
- Ew, ew, ew.

816
00:31:02,460 --> 00:31:04,060
- No, no, no, no.

817
00:31:04,060 --> 00:31:05,060
- She's just a mermaid.

818
00:31:05,060 --> 00:31:10,900
- Can you describe it for us?

819
00:31:10,900 --> 00:31:11,900
(screams)

820
00:31:11,900 --> 00:31:13,580
- I told you there's jump scare.

821
00:31:13,580 --> 00:31:17,220
I know, but I didn't know when it was gonna happen, so.

822
00:31:17,220 --> 00:31:21,740
And I saw her fingers move and then I thought that was it.

823
00:31:21,740 --> 00:31:23,540
I thought maybe that was the jump scare.

824
00:31:23,540 --> 00:31:25,580
- She had like teeth, right?

825
00:31:25,580 --> 00:31:29,820
Like jaggedy teeth or am I making this up?

826
00:31:29,820 --> 00:31:31,260
- No, I think she did.

827
00:31:31,260 --> 00:31:32,700
(gasps)

828
00:31:32,700 --> 00:31:33,860
- Okay.

829
00:31:33,860 --> 00:31:36,700
- I do both of the face.

830
00:31:36,700 --> 00:31:37,700
- Yeah.

831
00:31:37,700 --> 00:31:41,580
I mean, it's really blurry, so it's really hard to tell.

832
00:31:41,580 --> 00:31:44,460
What it is you're seeing, but everything that you can make out

833
00:31:44,460 --> 00:31:48,500
is not gonna lie, it's pretty horrifying.

834
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:54,740
- Yeah, some more like a Zimbabwe mermaid, like a meme.

835
00:31:54,740 --> 00:31:57,260
Like, I, yeah.

836
00:31:58,420 --> 00:32:01,740
I mean, it looks like basically in this section

837
00:32:01,740 --> 00:32:06,660
of the phone footage that this teenager

838
00:32:06,660 --> 00:32:09,620
and maybe his buddy who's off camera,

839
00:32:09,620 --> 00:32:12,540
like come onto the beach and they see all the whales

840
00:32:12,540 --> 00:32:15,620
and everything, and then they see kind of like,

841
00:32:15,620 --> 00:32:18,620
it honestly just looks like a pile of like rubbage

842
00:32:18,620 --> 00:32:22,540
or something, and he goes up to whatever this is

843
00:32:22,540 --> 00:32:24,860
and like it's kind of like poking at it.

844
00:32:24,860 --> 00:32:29,780
And then all of a sudden you see like fingers moving,

845
00:32:29,780 --> 00:32:31,700
and I was like, oh, maybe that's the part

846
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:32,940
that's supposed to jump scare me

847
00:32:32,940 --> 00:32:34,860
'cause like I wasn't expecting that.

848
00:32:34,860 --> 00:32:36,700
No, no, that's not it.

849
00:32:36,700 --> 00:32:38,300
- That's not the jump scare.

850
00:32:38,300 --> 00:32:39,140
- Okay.

851
00:32:39,140 --> 00:32:42,300
- Yeah, 'cause that would be stupid.

852
00:32:42,300 --> 00:32:43,980
Who would even think that's the jump scare?

853
00:32:43,980 --> 00:32:45,580
- I should have put the time in there, sorry.

854
00:32:45,580 --> 00:32:47,300
- I thought it was gonna be plenty of warning

855
00:32:47,300 --> 00:32:49,180
about those jump scare kind of.

856
00:32:49,180 --> 00:32:51,420
- No, I should have known that that wasn't gonna be

857
00:32:51,420 --> 00:32:53,140
the jump scare, but I was like,

858
00:32:53,140 --> 00:32:56,300
oh, that was so scary, your fingers made.

859
00:32:56,300 --> 00:32:58,900
- When she jumps up and was like screaming in this place,

860
00:32:58,900 --> 00:33:02,860
it's based on whether pre-be siren scream

861
00:33:02,860 --> 00:33:06,060
and, yeah, it's not kind of covered that.

862
00:33:06,060 --> 00:33:08,220
- Yeah, you did a great job, thank you.

863
00:33:08,220 --> 00:33:10,300
'Cause I didn't pull it up 'cause I've seen it.

864
00:33:10,300 --> 00:33:11,140
(gasps)

865
00:33:11,140 --> 00:33:12,420
I was intense.

866
00:33:12,420 --> 00:33:14,020
- So at the end of this documentary,

867
00:33:14,020 --> 00:33:15,580
they claim that the government came

868
00:33:15,580 --> 00:33:18,940
and took all their evidence except for the kid's cell phone video.

869
00:33:18,940 --> 00:33:19,780
Okay.

870
00:33:20,820 --> 00:33:23,860
They had a website, believeinmermades.com.

871
00:33:23,860 --> 00:33:27,220
And if you visited this website,

872
00:33:27,220 --> 00:33:29,780
it had a government alert that popped up,

873
00:33:29,780 --> 00:33:32,980
saying, "US Department of Justice and Homeland Security

874
00:33:32,980 --> 00:33:35,020
has seized to the site."

875
00:33:35,020 --> 00:33:37,980
And, simulating, this is a federal cover-up.

876
00:33:37,980 --> 00:33:40,540
Okay.

877
00:33:40,540 --> 00:33:44,100
The site no longer exists today, unfortunately.

878
00:33:44,100 --> 00:33:44,940
- What?

879
00:33:44,940 --> 00:33:46,300
- I know.

880
00:33:46,300 --> 00:33:47,700
The government took it.

881
00:33:47,700 --> 00:33:48,820
Oh, right, right, right, right.

882
00:33:48,820 --> 00:33:50,180
If the government was taking a site,

883
00:33:50,180 --> 00:33:52,940
why would they put up a screen alert?

884
00:33:52,940 --> 00:33:53,940
- They would just take it.

885
00:33:53,940 --> 00:33:54,780
- I think, yeah.

886
00:33:54,780 --> 00:33:56,940
- I think they just erased from history.

887
00:33:56,940 --> 00:33:58,940
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

888
00:33:58,940 --> 00:34:01,140
After many people watched this documentary,

889
00:34:01,140 --> 00:34:05,940
as it was presented as factual with scientists and evidence

890
00:34:05,940 --> 00:34:09,260
and everything, animal planet emits,

891
00:34:09,260 --> 00:34:13,300
this is nearly a speculative documentary,

892
00:34:13,300 --> 00:34:15,860
saying, quote, "The film is science fiction

893
00:34:15,860 --> 00:34:19,860
using science as a springboard into imagination."

894
00:34:19,860 --> 00:34:21,100
- I'll say.

895
00:34:21,100 --> 00:34:23,860
Yeah, I think that's putting it rather mildly,

896
00:34:23,860 --> 00:34:25,340
if I'm being honest.

897
00:34:25,340 --> 00:34:28,900
- There is also a quote from Noah.

898
00:34:28,900 --> 00:34:29,740
- Great.

899
00:34:29,740 --> 00:34:30,580
I can't wait.

900
00:34:30,580 --> 00:34:34,500
- No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found.

901
00:34:34,500 --> 00:34:35,340
- What?

902
00:34:35,340 --> 00:34:36,180
- To have put that in there.

903
00:34:36,180 --> 00:34:37,020
- To science.

904
00:34:37,020 --> 00:34:40,100
- Just stating all, I'm bringing all of the evidence here.

905
00:34:40,100 --> 00:34:40,940
Okay.

906
00:34:40,940 --> 00:34:41,780
- Toads.

907
00:34:41,780 --> 00:34:46,460
- There was a not very obvious disclaimer

908
00:34:46,460 --> 00:34:48,020
at the end of the documentary.

909
00:34:48,020 --> 00:34:53,020
- Okay, most people missed stating that some of the evidence

910
00:34:53,020 --> 00:34:55,140
were fictional.

911
00:34:55,140 --> 00:34:55,980
- What?

912
00:34:55,980 --> 00:34:56,820
- Some.

913
00:34:56,820 --> 00:34:57,660
(laughing)

914
00:34:57,660 --> 00:34:59,660
- Try like 95%.

915
00:34:59,660 --> 00:35:04,020
And it's like a tiny writing, too.

916
00:35:04,020 --> 00:35:05,260
- Yeah, yeah.

917
00:35:05,260 --> 00:35:07,100
- All right.

918
00:35:07,100 --> 00:35:07,940
- It's just ridiculous, so.

919
00:35:07,940 --> 00:35:08,940
- Yeah.

920
00:35:08,940 --> 00:35:13,260
- It wasn't just that they faked some videos with CGI.

921
00:35:13,260 --> 00:35:15,340
Obviously, the cell phone video was not

922
00:35:15,340 --> 00:35:17,620
from an early 2000s phone.

923
00:35:17,620 --> 00:35:18,460
- No.

924
00:35:18,460 --> 00:35:22,860
- It was literally in cinematic proportions

925
00:35:22,860 --> 00:35:24,340
or whatever it's called ratio.

926
00:35:24,340 --> 00:35:25,180
- Right.

927
00:35:25,180 --> 00:35:27,700
- So it was like the quality was too good.

928
00:35:27,700 --> 00:35:30,340
- Yeah, it was perfectly pixelated.

929
00:35:30,340 --> 00:35:31,180
- Yeah.

930
00:35:31,180 --> 00:35:35,260
- It really does remind me of parts of Cloverfield.

931
00:35:35,260 --> 00:35:36,100
- Yeah.

932
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:36,940
- Yeah.

933
00:35:36,940 --> 00:35:37,780
- And I was like, all right.

934
00:35:37,780 --> 00:35:39,620
- And cell phone videos back then,

935
00:35:39,620 --> 00:35:42,060
they were pretty, it was mostly just photos.

936
00:35:42,060 --> 00:35:44,740
I don't think videos were a super huge thing,

937
00:35:44,740 --> 00:35:45,740
but they were not.

938
00:35:45,740 --> 00:35:47,580
- I think it was a terrible quality.

939
00:35:47,580 --> 00:35:48,420
- Yeah.

940
00:35:48,420 --> 00:35:49,240
- Yeah.

941
00:35:49,240 --> 00:35:50,080
- So it's pretty funny.

942
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:50,920
You can still watch that.

943
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,080
Obviously, Kate would just watch it,

944
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:53,220
so we'll link it.

945
00:35:53,220 --> 00:35:54,540
- Sure did.

946
00:35:54,540 --> 00:35:55,380
- It's fun.

947
00:35:55,380 --> 00:35:59,180
- So not only that fake video,

948
00:35:59,180 --> 00:36:03,780
they faked historical facts and used actors as scientists.

949
00:36:03,780 --> 00:36:06,980
They misused scientific theories,

950
00:36:06,980 --> 00:36:08,500
like the aquatic ape theory,

951
00:36:08,500 --> 00:36:11,100
just that their own completely made up theories.

952
00:36:11,100 --> 00:36:11,940
- Okay.

953
00:36:11,940 --> 00:36:14,860
- I'm sorry, they're scientific springboard

954
00:36:14,860 --> 00:36:16,140
into imagination.

955
00:36:17,500 --> 00:36:18,340
- All right.

956
00:36:18,340 --> 00:36:22,140
Also, I wanna say I wasn't able to watch

957
00:36:22,140 --> 00:36:23,340
this whole documentary.

958
00:36:23,340 --> 00:36:24,940
I didn't wanna like pay for it.

959
00:36:24,940 --> 00:36:27,380
So I found some clips on YouTube

960
00:36:27,380 --> 00:36:31,380
and I got most of my info from the unbelievers podcast.

961
00:36:31,380 --> 00:36:35,380
They do a hilarious deep dive review of the entire thing.

962
00:36:35,380 --> 00:36:37,100
It's really good and really funny.

963
00:36:37,100 --> 00:36:38,660
So you should listen to that.

964
00:36:38,660 --> 00:36:40,700
- That sounds, yeah.

965
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:42,580
That'll be listening to that.

966
00:36:42,580 --> 00:36:43,900
- That.

967
00:36:43,900 --> 00:36:48,260
- In May 2013, Animal Planet aired an extended cut

968
00:36:48,260 --> 00:36:50,500
of Mermaids, the body found,

969
00:36:50,500 --> 00:36:55,500
and a sequel to the speculative documentary, Mermaids,

970
00:36:55,500 --> 00:36:57,940
new evidence.

971
00:36:57,940 --> 00:36:58,940
- Oh.

972
00:36:58,940 --> 00:37:01,260
- In this one for Monsters Week.

973
00:37:01,260 --> 00:37:02,180
- Okay.

974
00:37:02,180 --> 00:37:04,540
- It was, at least in 2013,

975
00:37:04,540 --> 00:37:08,100
the most watched telecast on Animal Planet.

976
00:37:08,100 --> 00:37:08,940
- Wow.

977
00:37:08,940 --> 00:37:09,780
- Wow.

978
00:37:09,780 --> 00:37:12,020
- Even after the scandal.

979
00:37:13,100 --> 00:37:15,540
- That's, okay, I'm sorry.

980
00:37:15,540 --> 00:37:19,020
There's more of this, like significantly more.

981
00:37:19,020 --> 00:37:20,380
- There's more.

982
00:37:20,380 --> 00:37:21,620
I just,

983
00:37:21,620 --> 00:37:22,460
- I know.

984
00:37:22,460 --> 00:37:23,780
I don't know anything about the second one,

985
00:37:23,780 --> 00:37:24,940
but over the extended,

986
00:37:24,940 --> 00:37:28,580
but like I kind of wanna see what it's all about, you know?

987
00:37:28,580 --> 00:37:29,420
- Yeah.

988
00:37:29,420 --> 00:37:30,780
Yeah, I mean, I'm not gonna lie.

989
00:37:30,780 --> 00:37:32,580
I'm tempted.

990
00:37:32,580 --> 00:37:34,300
- Okay, now I know what you're thinking.

991
00:37:34,300 --> 00:37:39,300
But Cassie, what about the blue?

992
00:37:39,300 --> 00:37:42,220
- Oh, yes, I was thinking that.

993
00:37:42,220 --> 00:37:44,460
'Cause that is real.

994
00:37:44,460 --> 00:37:47,100
That is hard evidence, this blue.

995
00:37:47,100 --> 00:37:49,500
- I don't even know what to believe anymore.

996
00:37:49,500 --> 00:37:50,900
(laughs)

997
00:37:50,900 --> 00:37:54,420
- As it turns out, back in 2005,

998
00:37:54,420 --> 00:37:58,740
which I think this documentary was 2012.

999
00:37:58,740 --> 00:37:59,580
- Okay.

1000
00:37:59,580 --> 00:38:01,660
- 2005.

1001
00:38:01,660 --> 00:38:03,940
- Real Noah scientist had already figured out

1002
00:38:03,940 --> 00:38:08,140
that the sound recorded was just a big old glacier fart.

1003
00:38:08,140 --> 00:38:11,260
- Wow, it's a fart.

1004
00:38:11,260 --> 00:38:13,580
- So it was a fart after all.

1005
00:38:13,580 --> 00:38:14,420
(laughs)

1006
00:38:14,420 --> 00:38:15,820
We were not wrong.

1007
00:38:15,820 --> 00:38:16,660
- Okay.

1008
00:38:16,660 --> 00:38:17,460
- Well.

1009
00:38:17,460 --> 00:38:20,860
- Okay, like that's not the technical term for it.

1010
00:38:20,860 --> 00:38:21,700
- It's a matter of.

1011
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:24,700
- I mean, they call them ice quakes

1012
00:38:24,700 --> 00:38:28,540
when an iceberg cracks and breaks away from the glacier.

1013
00:38:28,540 --> 00:38:30,900
It causes, you know, bubbles that go,

1014
00:38:30,900 --> 00:38:31,940
(blows raspberry)

1015
00:38:31,940 --> 00:38:35,100
I mean, first of all, not very descriptive.

1016
00:38:35,100 --> 00:38:38,900
Second of all, not at all amusing or humorous.

1017
00:38:38,900 --> 00:38:41,500
- I know, like ice quakes, glacier farts.

1018
00:38:41,500 --> 00:38:42,340
- Yeah.

1019
00:38:42,340 --> 00:38:44,220
- Same thing, which one sounds better coming out of your mouth.

1020
00:38:44,220 --> 00:38:46,220
- Obviously, one of them is better.

1021
00:38:46,220 --> 00:38:47,500
- Yeah.

1022
00:38:47,500 --> 00:38:48,340
Farts.

1023
00:38:48,340 --> 00:38:49,340
- You be the judge.

1024
00:38:49,340 --> 00:38:50,460
(laughs)

1025
00:38:50,460 --> 00:38:51,300
- 'Cause we're 12.

1026
00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:54,300
- Even though unfortunately,

1027
00:38:54,300 --> 00:38:56,980
this documentary's speculative documentary

1028
00:38:56,980 --> 00:38:58,780
ended up being fake,

1029
00:38:58,780 --> 00:39:01,500
with water being 71% of our planet

1030
00:39:01,500 --> 00:39:05,940
and not quite 25% of that sea floor is mapped.

1031
00:39:05,940 --> 00:39:08,900
And only 5% actually explored.

1032
00:39:08,900 --> 00:39:10,580
- Mm-hmm.

1033
00:39:10,580 --> 00:39:16,020
Who knows what could be lurking in the deep blue?

1034
00:39:16,020 --> 00:39:18,740
- We're still here to believe in mermaids.

1035
00:39:18,740 --> 00:39:19,580
- Yeah.

1036
00:39:19,580 --> 00:39:22,980
- I'm sure it's all like totally chill stuff down there.

1037
00:39:22,980 --> 00:39:24,460
- Yes.

1038
00:39:24,460 --> 00:39:26,900
- Well, because mermaids are real.

1039
00:39:26,900 --> 00:39:27,860
They are.

1040
00:39:27,860 --> 00:39:30,980
There is even a mermaid museum near Aberdeen.

1041
00:39:30,980 --> 00:39:31,980
- Ooh.

1042
00:39:31,980 --> 00:39:33,620
- Washington.

1043
00:39:33,620 --> 00:39:37,620
The nonprofit International Mermaid Museum is open daily

1044
00:39:37,620 --> 00:39:40,420
with extremely reasonable admission rates.

1045
00:39:40,420 --> 00:39:41,420
- Okay.

1046
00:39:41,420 --> 00:39:45,060
- The museum is, quote, dedicated to teaching ocean ecology

1047
00:39:45,060 --> 00:39:47,100
from the sea shore to sea floor,

1048
00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:48,940
immersed in mermaid mythology,

1049
00:39:48,940 --> 00:39:51,500
unifying oceanic cultures.

1050
00:39:51,500 --> 00:39:53,180
- Love it.

1051
00:39:53,180 --> 00:39:55,420
- So if you'd like to contribute to the museum,

1052
00:39:55,420 --> 00:39:58,340
you can donate mermaid memorabilia

1053
00:39:58,340 --> 00:40:00,700
and marine life artifacts

1054
00:40:00,700 --> 00:40:03,260
or donate a brick or a bench.

1055
00:40:03,780 --> 00:40:04,780
- Ooh.

1056
00:40:04,780 --> 00:40:06,540
- Links are in the episode description.

1057
00:40:06,540 --> 00:40:10,540
There is also a mermaid festival, April 12th through April 19th,

1058
00:40:10,540 --> 00:40:11,540
2025.

1059
00:40:11,540 --> 00:40:13,780
So next year we miss this year's, it was in April.

1060
00:40:13,780 --> 00:40:14,620
- So damn it.

1061
00:40:14,620 --> 00:40:16,220
- Next year, though, we can go.

1062
00:40:16,220 --> 00:40:19,900
And it has, this is at the museum.

1063
00:40:19,900 --> 00:40:24,340
It has the Northwest famous Una, the mermaid.

1064
00:40:24,340 --> 00:40:25,180
- Ooh.

1065
00:40:25,180 --> 00:40:28,300
- She'll be performing underwater in her tank every day.

1066
00:40:28,300 --> 00:40:30,580
I actually saw her tank, I realized,

1067
00:40:30,580 --> 00:40:32,460
when I went to St. Helens for Halloween town,

1068
00:40:32,460 --> 00:40:33,300
she was there.

1069
00:40:33,300 --> 00:40:34,140
- Yeah.

1070
00:40:34,140 --> 00:40:34,980
- Oh, that's fun.

1071
00:40:34,980 --> 00:40:36,580
- So I have like a picture of her tank.

1072
00:40:36,580 --> 00:40:39,260
It has a tarp over it and you can just see like mermaid

1073
00:40:39,260 --> 00:40:40,100
underneath it.

1074
00:40:40,100 --> 00:40:40,940
You can see the moon apart.

1075
00:40:40,940 --> 00:40:44,500
And I was just scared to like peep behind the curtain

1076
00:40:44,500 --> 00:40:46,540
'cause I'm a sucker for like rules.

1077
00:40:46,540 --> 00:40:49,820
And I don't want to get in trouble by touching things,

1078
00:40:49,820 --> 00:40:51,900
but no touching.

1079
00:40:51,900 --> 00:40:53,820
- I know, unfortunately I went like during the day

1080
00:40:53,820 --> 00:40:55,700
on a weekday, so they're where, yeah.

1081
00:40:55,700 --> 00:40:56,940
That was down by the water.

1082
00:40:56,940 --> 00:40:59,620
I think they have like a little festival area.

1083
00:40:59,620 --> 00:41:00,620
- Yeah.

1084
00:41:00,620 --> 00:41:01,620
- That sounds like cool.

1085
00:41:01,620 --> 00:41:03,260
- I know, we should go one time at night.

1086
00:41:03,260 --> 00:41:04,100
- Cool.

1087
00:41:04,100 --> 00:41:04,940
- And they are show.

1088
00:41:04,940 --> 00:41:06,940
- I want to see Una, she's so cool.

1089
00:41:06,940 --> 00:41:07,940
- Cool.

1090
00:41:07,940 --> 00:41:10,180
- Okay, I told you I'd bring this back.

1091
00:41:10,180 --> 00:41:13,580
A gathering of mermaids can be called a gossip.

1092
00:41:13,580 --> 00:41:14,580
- Ooh.

1093
00:41:14,580 --> 00:41:15,580
- I thought that was funny too

1094
00:41:15,580 --> 00:41:20,740
'cause we just did our little podcast astrology birth chart.

1095
00:41:20,740 --> 00:41:21,580
- Oh yeah.

1096
00:41:21,580 --> 00:41:23,820
- And we were talking about like we were Gemini

1097
00:41:23,820 --> 00:41:26,100
and we were all about like gossiping

1098
00:41:26,100 --> 00:41:29,060
and we were also talking about like good gossip

1099
00:41:29,060 --> 00:41:30,700
and bad gossip.

1100
00:41:30,700 --> 00:41:31,540
- Yeah.

1101
00:41:31,540 --> 00:41:33,540
- And I was listening to a podcast the other day

1102
00:41:33,540 --> 00:41:36,420
that was like you know, like there is a difference

1103
00:41:36,420 --> 00:41:39,260
between there is good gossip and there is bad gossip

1104
00:41:39,260 --> 00:41:41,300
and I'm like we were debating that.

1105
00:41:41,300 --> 00:41:42,140
- Yeah.

1106
00:41:42,140 --> 00:41:43,140
- Yeah.

1107
00:41:43,140 --> 00:41:43,980
- Yeah.

1108
00:41:43,980 --> 00:41:46,940
- And then I was listening to this other podcast

1109
00:41:46,940 --> 00:41:50,540
and they were saying that gossip was only made to be,

1110
00:41:50,540 --> 00:41:53,060
like have a bad connotation because it was like women

1111
00:41:53,060 --> 00:41:56,660
doing the gossiping about men in the patriarchy.

1112
00:41:56,660 --> 00:41:58,580
So you know, we need to take back the gossip.

1113
00:41:58,580 --> 00:42:00,820
It's not, if it's not mean spirited,

1114
00:42:01,700 --> 00:42:02,540
it's fine.

1115
00:42:02,540 --> 00:42:03,700
And it can still be called gossip

1116
00:42:03,700 --> 00:42:05,500
without the negative connotation.

1117
00:42:05,500 --> 00:42:06,340
- Yeah.

1118
00:42:06,340 --> 00:42:07,180
- Also mermaids.

1119
00:42:07,180 --> 00:42:11,580
But more often a group of mermaids is called a pod.

1120
00:42:11,580 --> 00:42:12,620
- Ooh.

1121
00:42:12,620 --> 00:42:16,420
- And the Pacific Northwest has several pods.

1122
00:42:16,420 --> 00:42:20,700
Merfolk include all genders and body types.

1123
00:42:20,700 --> 00:42:24,020
Some people enjoy mermaiding for exercise

1124
00:42:24,020 --> 00:42:27,540
as a hobby, a side or a full-time hustle.

1125
00:42:27,540 --> 00:42:28,420
- Hey, hey.

1126
00:42:28,420 --> 00:42:32,140
Some go to schools and retreats to learn how to mermaid

1127
00:42:32,140 --> 00:42:34,180
and even have custom costumes made,

1128
00:42:34,180 --> 00:42:36,740
like gorgeous costumes made.

1129
00:42:36,740 --> 00:42:41,060
But there's no need for fancy tales to join.

1130
00:42:41,060 --> 00:42:43,900
Even if you just wanna wear a mermaid t-shirt,

1131
00:42:43,900 --> 00:42:47,100
stay on land, sip a cocktail.

1132
00:42:47,100 --> 00:42:48,260
- I'm in sale.

1133
00:42:48,260 --> 00:42:50,620
- They're open to all.

1134
00:42:50,620 --> 00:42:54,180
- Portlandia mermaid parade and festival

1135
00:42:54,180 --> 00:42:56,980
is Saturday, July 27th this year.

1136
00:42:56,980 --> 00:42:58,020
- Oh my God.

1137
00:42:58,020 --> 00:43:00,420
- Yes, they also have a sirens ball

1138
00:43:00,420 --> 00:43:04,220
as a fundraiser gallop on the parade on the 20th.

1139
00:43:04,220 --> 00:43:05,740
- Yeah.

1140
00:43:05,740 --> 00:43:07,860
So Una, the mermaid, remember her.

1141
00:43:07,860 --> 00:43:09,020
She actually started this.

1142
00:43:09,020 --> 00:43:12,940
So she started the parade and the pod that's in Portland.

1143
00:43:12,940 --> 00:43:13,900
- That's so cool.

1144
00:43:13,900 --> 00:43:17,180
- And you can find her on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok.

1145
00:43:17,180 --> 00:43:19,340
She's a website, we'll link the website for you.

1146
00:43:19,340 --> 00:43:20,740
- No worries.

1147
00:43:20,740 --> 00:43:21,940
- Okay, so I told you earlier,

1148
00:43:21,940 --> 00:43:24,780
I'd make up for the gender stereotyping.

1149
00:43:24,780 --> 00:43:25,940
- I mean, it's about time.

1150
00:43:25,940 --> 00:43:26,780
- I'm doing it.

1151
00:43:26,780 --> 00:43:27,620
- I'm fixing it.

1152
00:43:27,620 --> 00:43:28,980
- Justice for Mermen.

1153
00:43:28,980 --> 00:43:31,020
- I'm trying, Mermaid folk.

1154
00:43:31,020 --> 00:43:32,300
(laughing)

1155
00:43:32,300 --> 00:43:35,900
So the mermaid is used as a symbol for Mermaid's UK,

1156
00:43:35,900 --> 00:43:39,540
which is a transgender youth network and charity.

1157
00:43:39,540 --> 00:43:42,380
They support children and young people

1158
00:43:42,380 --> 00:43:45,580
who are transgender or gender diverse.

1159
00:43:45,580 --> 00:43:46,900
Love it.

1160
00:43:46,900 --> 00:43:49,620
And this is a quote from their website.

1161
00:43:49,620 --> 00:43:52,140
Over the years, we've seen many changes in the language

1162
00:43:52,140 --> 00:43:54,900
and understanding surrounding gender issues.

1163
00:43:54,900 --> 00:43:56,820
But one thing remains the same.

1164
00:43:56,820 --> 00:44:00,060
Transgender, non-binary and gender diverse children

1165
00:44:00,060 --> 00:44:02,860
deserve the freedom and confidence to-

1166
00:44:02,860 --> 00:44:04,300
I'm gonna cry.

1167
00:44:04,300 --> 00:44:05,460
- Oh my God.

1168
00:44:05,460 --> 00:44:08,020
'Cause it's like so obvious

1169
00:44:08,020 --> 00:44:09,460
and people are ridiculous.

1170
00:44:09,460 --> 00:44:10,300
Okay, sorry.

1171
00:44:10,300 --> 00:44:11,540
- We have it just like people are trash.

1172
00:44:11,540 --> 00:44:13,500
- I didn't think I was gonna cry.

1173
00:44:13,500 --> 00:44:14,780
The mermaid episode.

1174
00:44:14,780 --> 00:44:18,460
So these children deserve the freedom and confidence

1175
00:44:18,460 --> 00:44:20,820
to explore their gender identity.

1176
00:44:20,820 --> 00:44:22,780
Wherever their journey takes them,

1177
00:44:22,780 --> 00:44:26,380
free from fear, isolation and discrimination.

1178
00:44:27,220 --> 00:44:29,140
(baby crying)

1179
00:44:29,140 --> 00:44:29,980
- Look at me.

1180
00:44:29,980 --> 00:44:30,980
- Oh my God.

1181
00:44:30,980 --> 00:44:32,140
- Oh my God.

1182
00:44:32,140 --> 00:44:34,980
- Yeah, so I told you I'd fix it.

1183
00:44:34,980 --> 00:44:36,060
- Oh.

1184
00:44:36,060 --> 00:44:37,380
- Also, I think,

1185
00:44:37,380 --> 00:44:39,340
You can call them Mermaid,

1186
00:44:39,340 --> 00:44:40,500
you can call them Mermen,

1187
00:44:40,500 --> 00:44:42,820
call them Merfolk, whatever you want.

1188
00:44:42,820 --> 00:44:43,940
- Merpeople.

1189
00:44:43,940 --> 00:44:44,780
- Yeah.

1190
00:44:44,780 --> 00:44:48,380
There's no discrimination, there's no rules.

1191
00:44:48,380 --> 00:44:49,780
You can be whoever you wanna be.

1192
00:44:49,780 --> 00:44:50,620
- I love it.

1193
00:44:50,620 --> 00:44:54,340
- Yeah, so if you're struggling with that,

1194
00:44:54,340 --> 00:44:56,220
consider joining a mermaid pod.

1195
00:44:56,220 --> 00:44:58,020
'Cause they got you.

1196
00:44:58,020 --> 00:45:00,420
- Yeah, 'cause like, fuck yeah.

1197
00:45:00,420 --> 00:45:02,100
- Yeah, yeah.

1198
00:45:02,100 --> 00:45:05,340
- So we did have a question in the Patreon Live

1199
00:45:05,340 --> 00:45:08,060
'cause we were giving away a mermaid postcard.

1200
00:45:08,060 --> 00:45:08,900
- Right.

1201
00:45:08,900 --> 00:45:10,580
- From the peculiarium.

1202
00:45:10,580 --> 00:45:11,420
- Yes.

1203
00:45:11,420 --> 00:45:12,740
- So we're not gonna give anything away this time,

1204
00:45:12,740 --> 00:45:14,900
but the question was,

1205
00:45:14,900 --> 00:45:17,700
what animal skeleton is often mistaken

1206
00:45:17,700 --> 00:45:19,180
to be the bones of a mermaid?

1207
00:45:19,180 --> 00:45:20,420
Do you remember the answer?

1208
00:45:20,420 --> 00:45:21,260
- Does it manatee?

1209
00:45:21,260 --> 00:45:22,660
- Yeah, it's a manatee!

1210
00:45:22,660 --> 00:45:23,660
- Oh, yeah.

1211
00:45:23,660 --> 00:45:25,380
- But we're not giving anything away this time.

1212
00:45:25,380 --> 00:45:28,260
- Yeah, I mean, anyways.

1213
00:45:28,260 --> 00:45:30,860
I think it often said like the stellar sea cow or something...

1214
00:45:30,860 --> 00:45:34,460
Are they the same thing as stellar sea cow and a manatee?

1215
00:45:34,460 --> 00:45:35,300
Manatee?

1216
00:45:35,300 --> 00:45:39,340
I think they're similar anyway.

1217
00:45:39,340 --> 00:45:44,060
- Yeah, I mean, as a marine biology expert, yes.

1218
00:45:44,060 --> 00:45:45,300
They're the same.

1219
00:45:45,300 --> 00:45:46,140
- Yep.

1220
00:45:46,140 --> 00:45:48,100
- Once I was reading,

1221
00:45:48,100 --> 00:45:49,500
said if mermaids were real,

1222
00:45:49,500 --> 00:45:51,540
they would likely be like fat and hairy,

1223
00:45:51,540 --> 00:45:53,980
like have blubber and be hairy.

1224
00:45:53,980 --> 00:45:55,340
- Okay.

1225
00:45:55,340 --> 00:45:57,580
- Like a manatee or something.

1226
00:45:57,580 --> 00:46:00,740
And instead of picturing like a sea lion,

1227
00:46:00,740 --> 00:46:04,660
which I'm sure is like kind of more what they meant.

1228
00:46:04,660 --> 00:46:08,300
I pictured like a big foot mermaid hybrid.

1229
00:46:08,300 --> 00:46:09,140
- Oh my God.

1230
00:46:09,140 --> 00:46:15,860
Wait, did that be like a Bigmaid or a Merfoot?

1231
00:46:15,860 --> 00:46:18,940
We'll workshop it.

1232
00:46:18,940 --> 00:46:19,780
- Okay.

1233
00:46:19,780 --> 00:46:21,340
- Let's go to the tarot.

1234
00:46:21,340 --> 00:46:24,340
We'll workshops the big made Merfoot thing.

1235
00:46:24,340 --> 00:46:25,340
(laughs)

1236
00:46:25,340 --> 00:46:28,300
- Yeah, like Merfoot better, Bigmaid I dont know.

1237
00:46:28,300 --> 00:46:29,300
- Bigmaid.

1238
00:46:29,300 --> 00:46:30,180
- Yeah.

1239
00:46:30,180 --> 00:46:32,300
- Almost kind of fun.

1240
00:46:32,300 --> 00:46:33,620
- Yeah.

1241
00:46:33,620 --> 00:46:34,940
- Love it.

1242
00:46:34,940 --> 00:46:36,740
- All right, let's do some mermaid tarot.

1243
00:46:36,740 --> 00:46:38,580
- Do it.

1244
00:46:38,580 --> 00:46:39,420
- Okay.

1245
00:46:39,420 --> 00:46:40,260
- Tarot.

1246
00:46:40,260 --> 00:46:43,100
(Tarot whistling)

1247
00:46:43,100 --> 00:46:44,660
(Tarot whistling)

1248
00:46:44,660 --> 00:46:48,740
- Okay, we are drawing tarot for a mermaid episode

1249
00:46:48,740 --> 00:46:52,140
from Caitlyn's Oceanic Tarot Deck,

1250
00:46:52,140 --> 00:46:55,420
which, you know it has mermaids on it.

1251
00:46:55,420 --> 00:46:56,260
- Doves.

1252
00:46:56,260 --> 00:46:57,380
- Who got that for her?

1253
00:46:57,380 --> 00:47:00,300
- Me.

1254
00:47:00,300 --> 00:47:01,620
(laughs)

1255
00:47:01,620 --> 00:47:02,460
- Oh.

1256
00:47:02,460 --> 00:47:05,020
- Is that a mermaid?

1257
00:47:05,020 --> 00:47:09,180
I mean, I know it's the oceanic deck, but it's still.

1258
00:47:09,180 --> 00:47:13,460
Okay, so joke's on me.

1259
00:47:13,460 --> 00:47:14,540
We got a merman.

1260
00:47:14,540 --> 00:47:16,220
(laughs)

1261
00:47:16,220 --> 00:47:17,740
- Oh, I love that.

1262
00:47:18,700 --> 00:47:20,660
- Hey, hey.

1263
00:47:20,660 --> 00:47:22,740
- I mean, it could be either, really.

1264
00:47:22,740 --> 00:47:24,820
Like we said, you can be whatever you want,

1265
00:47:24,820 --> 00:47:28,140
but it definitely presents as a male chest

1266
00:47:28,140 --> 00:47:29,460
is what I'm trying to say.

1267
00:47:29,460 --> 00:47:30,300
- Yeah.

1268
00:47:30,300 --> 00:47:32,580
- I mean, I think that's fair, that's accurate.

1269
00:47:32,580 --> 00:47:34,500
- So it is the world card.

1270
00:47:34,500 --> 00:47:36,340
- Oh wow.

1271
00:47:36,340 --> 00:47:39,620
- And on this card it says regeneration,

1272
00:47:39,620 --> 00:47:41,740
which is interesting because it was all about like,

1273
00:47:41,740 --> 00:47:45,020
oceanic preservation, pollution.

1274
00:47:45,020 --> 00:47:45,860
- Yeah.

1275
00:47:45,860 --> 00:47:48,220
- Like that's what the whole museum

1276
00:47:48,220 --> 00:47:51,420
was really about, so that was kind of interesting.

1277
00:47:51,420 --> 00:47:54,420
So we need to regenerate our oceans, you guys.

1278
00:47:54,420 --> 00:47:55,460
- I like it.

1279
00:47:55,460 --> 00:47:56,660
- Save the mermaids.

1280
00:47:56,660 --> 00:47:57,500
- Okay.

1281
00:47:57,500 --> 00:47:59,420
- And did we draw that up, right?

1282
00:47:59,420 --> 00:48:01,740
- Oh, I'm sorry, it was in the reverse.

1283
00:48:01,740 --> 00:48:02,540
- Oh, it was reverse, yeah.

1284
00:48:02,540 --> 00:48:03,500
- It was reverse, okay.

1285
00:48:03,500 --> 00:48:06,460
Okay, key words for the world.

1286
00:48:06,460 --> 00:48:13,060
fulfillment, completion, achievement, mastery, and wholeness.

1287
00:48:15,980 --> 00:48:19,780
The world represents the end of the fool's journey.

1288
00:48:19,780 --> 00:48:23,060
You've tracked down an arduous path of awakening

1289
00:48:23,060 --> 00:48:26,060
and finally reached your destination.

1290
00:48:26,060 --> 00:48:29,540
In many decks, the world card shows a young woman

1291
00:48:29,540 --> 00:48:33,620
sometimes nude holding a double ended wand.

1292
00:48:33,620 --> 00:48:36,620
- Oh, okay, I got a wand.

1293
00:48:36,620 --> 00:48:37,460
- I got a wand.

1294
00:48:37,460 --> 00:48:42,220
- The point's both upward and downward suggesting,

1295
00:48:42,220 --> 00:48:45,020
as above so below.

1296
00:48:46,020 --> 00:48:48,140
In the Rider Weight Smith deck,

1297
00:48:48,140 --> 00:48:52,980
the woman is encircled by a wreath, signifying victory,

1298
00:48:52,980 --> 00:48:56,380
bound at the top and bottom by ribbons

1299
00:48:56,380 --> 00:48:59,260
that call to mind the infinity symbol.

1300
00:48:59,260 --> 00:49:00,460
- Oh, it does.

1301
00:49:00,460 --> 00:49:01,700
- Oh, okay.

1302
00:49:01,700 --> 00:49:03,980
- In this card, he's surrounded by fish.

1303
00:49:03,980 --> 00:49:05,300
Like a wreath of fish.

1304
00:49:05,300 --> 00:49:06,140
- Yeah.

1305
00:49:06,140 --> 00:49:11,500
She's dancing and as Isadora Duncan believed,

1306
00:49:11,500 --> 00:49:15,260
one truly lives only when one dances.

1307
00:49:15,260 --> 00:49:16,580
- All or swims.

1308
00:49:16,580 --> 00:49:17,580
- Swims.

1309
00:49:17,580 --> 00:49:20,180
- That was like kind of one of the things

1310
00:49:20,180 --> 00:49:22,060
why people do like the mermaid thing

1311
00:49:22,060 --> 00:49:24,900
'cause it's like so peaceful and quiet underwater

1312
00:49:24,900 --> 00:49:27,660
and like you just can move your body in different ways.

1313
00:49:27,660 --> 00:49:29,580
Obviously you can't own land, you know?

1314
00:49:29,580 --> 00:49:31,100
- I could totally see that.

1315
00:49:31,100 --> 00:49:32,100
- Yeah.

1316
00:49:32,100 --> 00:49:32,940
- That's so cool.

1317
00:49:32,940 --> 00:49:33,940
- I like it.

1318
00:49:33,940 --> 00:49:36,300
- I've never seen like a mermaid show, you know?

1319
00:49:36,300 --> 00:49:39,660
I've never seen like someone being a mermaid.

1320
00:49:39,660 --> 00:49:40,500
I wanna see it.

1321
00:49:40,500 --> 00:49:42,580
- Oh, someone needs to get on that.

1322
00:49:42,580 --> 00:49:44,220
- Oh, no, we're coming for ya.

1323
00:49:44,220 --> 00:49:47,980
- Four figures in the corner signify

1324
00:49:47,980 --> 00:49:51,580
the four elements via zodiac imagery.

1325
00:49:51,580 --> 00:49:53,700
The world represents fulfillment.

1326
00:49:53,700 --> 00:49:55,740
All is right with the world.

1327
00:49:55,740 --> 00:49:59,020
You've faced your dark side and honored your beauty.

1328
00:49:59,020 --> 00:50:00,460
- Ooh, very fitting.

1329
00:50:00,460 --> 00:50:01,980
- Yes.

1330
00:50:01,980 --> 00:50:05,780
I think of this as the congratulations card.

1331
00:50:05,780 --> 00:50:08,380
The last card of the major arcana,

1332
00:50:08,380 --> 00:50:13,260
it indicates fulfillment, achievement, balance and wholeness,

1333
00:50:13,260 --> 00:50:17,500
the completion of the journey from innocence to enlightenment.

1334
00:50:17,500 --> 00:50:18,940
- Oh, okay.

1335
00:50:18,940 --> 00:50:21,060
So balancing is interesting 'cause it's like,

1336
00:50:21,060 --> 00:50:22,900
it's a half fish, half person.

1337
00:50:22,900 --> 00:50:23,740
- Like, you know?

1338
00:50:23,740 --> 00:50:24,900
- Yeah.

1339
00:50:24,900 --> 00:50:27,220
That is an interesting, huh?

1340
00:50:27,220 --> 00:50:30,780
I didn't even think about it, but I didn't think of that at all.

1341
00:50:30,780 --> 00:50:34,220
There's an extra excerpt and it's about a goddess.

1342
00:50:34,220 --> 00:50:38,220
I literally went to go and grab the oceanic deck

1343
00:50:38,220 --> 00:50:40,620
was looking at my goddess Oracle.

1344
00:50:40,620 --> 00:50:43,340
And I don't know why, but I sat there for like a full minute

1345
00:50:43,340 --> 00:50:45,980
summing through looking at the cards.

1346
00:50:45,980 --> 00:50:48,220
Was Adder goddess in there?

1347
00:50:48,220 --> 00:50:49,380
I don't know.

1348
00:50:49,380 --> 00:50:51,860
And this one is actually talking about a different goddess.

1349
00:50:51,860 --> 00:50:54,460
So, but yeah, that was just interesting.

1350
00:50:54,460 --> 00:50:56,220
I was feeling drawn to it.

1351
00:50:56,220 --> 00:51:01,100
Okay, so let's get to our reversed interpretation.

1352
00:51:01,100 --> 00:51:04,860
Many choices are presented to you,

1353
00:51:04,860 --> 00:51:07,220
but you don't know which way to go.

1354
00:51:07,220 --> 00:51:11,140
Perhaps an obstacle still stands in the way of your success.

1355
00:51:11,140 --> 00:51:16,860
Things may get stuck regardless of all your hard work

1356
00:51:16,860 --> 00:51:21,380
and you'll just have to wait until matters right themselves.

1357
00:51:21,380 --> 00:51:23,420
- It's kind of like, you know, fixing the ocean.

1358
00:51:23,420 --> 00:51:24,660
You can't really do anything about it.

1359
00:51:24,660 --> 00:51:26,300
You just have to wait until people get their heads

1360
00:51:26,300 --> 00:51:29,020
out of their butts and stop polluting the ocean.

1361
00:51:29,020 --> 00:51:30,620
- Get your heads out of your butts

1362
00:51:30,620 --> 00:51:35,620
and turtle heads out of those plastic ring thingies, you know?

1363
00:51:36,980 --> 00:51:39,500
I was talking about cousin yesterday

1364
00:51:39,500 --> 00:51:41,620
and we were talking about like, straws, you know,

1365
00:51:41,620 --> 00:51:45,300
how they, and we're at this bar and the straws were noodles

1366
00:51:45,300 --> 00:51:48,340
'cause they didn't have, they got their straws taken away.

1367
00:51:48,340 --> 00:51:49,180
- Oh.

1368
00:51:49,180 --> 00:51:50,700
- We talked about, I don't know if it was this place

1369
00:51:50,700 --> 00:51:53,540
or another place got their straws taken away.

1370
00:51:53,540 --> 00:51:56,460
And I was like, was it like the straw police come?

1371
00:51:56,460 --> 00:51:58,020
It's like a bunch of turtles and like,

1372
00:51:58,020 --> 00:51:59,180
swat uniforms.

1373
00:51:59,180 --> 00:52:00,020
(laughs)

1374
00:52:00,020 --> 00:52:01,860
Taking the straws.

1375
00:52:01,860 --> 00:52:06,380
- That's a hilarious and kind of adorable visual.

1376
00:52:06,380 --> 00:52:07,220
- It is.

1377
00:52:07,220 --> 00:52:08,040
- I love it.

1378
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:08,880
- I know.

1379
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:10,540
- I also have pictures of me drinking out of a giant noodle

1380
00:52:10,540 --> 00:52:11,860
if anyone wants it.

1381
00:52:11,860 --> 00:52:14,420
- Well, yeah, obviously we need to share those

1382
00:52:14,420 --> 00:52:16,380
in a certain photo here.

1383
00:52:16,380 --> 00:52:17,220
- Taylor.

1384
00:52:17,220 --> 00:52:18,220
- Oh my goodness.

1385
00:52:18,220 --> 00:52:23,380
- Maybe the end result doesn't live up to your expectations.

1386
00:52:23,380 --> 00:52:25,660
Sometimes you may be required to go back

1387
00:52:25,660 --> 00:52:29,140
and do more work on something you thought you'd finished.

1388
00:52:29,140 --> 00:52:32,260
Oh, almost like this episode.

1389
00:52:32,260 --> 00:52:33,100
- Oh.

1390
00:52:33,100 --> 00:52:33,940
- Yeah.

1391
00:52:33,940 --> 00:52:36,660
- It was complete the first and we're all just to be clear.

1392
00:52:36,660 --> 00:52:41,620
Or the rewards you receive are of a private personal kind

1393
00:52:41,620 --> 00:52:43,700
rather than worldly success.

1394
00:52:43,700 --> 00:52:46,180
- I don't know about that.

1395
00:52:46,180 --> 00:52:49,380
- So if you meet a mermaid, they're gonna reward you.

1396
00:52:49,380 --> 00:52:50,220
- I don't know.

1397
00:52:50,220 --> 00:52:51,060
- I don't know.

1398
00:52:51,060 --> 00:52:53,100
- I'm not sure where we're going with this.

1399
00:52:53,100 --> 00:52:53,940
Let's see.

1400
00:52:53,940 --> 00:52:54,780
- They have treasure.

1401
00:52:54,780 --> 00:52:56,060
- 'Cause there's treasure on the altar.

1402
00:52:56,060 --> 00:52:57,300
- Yeah, treasure.

1403
00:52:57,300 --> 00:52:58,140
- Treasure.

1404
00:52:58,140 --> 00:52:58,980
- Treasure.

1405
00:52:58,980 --> 00:53:01,100
- Okay.

1406
00:53:01,100 --> 00:53:03,860
In a reading about money, you may need to wait a bit

1407
00:53:03,860 --> 00:53:06,260
or work a little longer before you achieve

1408
00:53:06,260 --> 00:53:08,700
your financial goals.

1409
00:53:08,700 --> 00:53:10,700
Perhaps the compensation you receive

1410
00:53:10,700 --> 00:53:12,980
is less than you'd expect.

1411
00:53:12,980 --> 00:53:17,540
Sometimes this card shows you focusing on spiritual

1412
00:53:17,540 --> 00:53:19,820
rather than material goals.

1413
00:53:19,820 --> 00:53:22,300
- Oh, kinda like the dams.

1414
00:53:22,300 --> 00:53:24,380
- They're like growing beer and stuff to a piece

1415
00:53:24,380 --> 00:53:26,420
the mermaid's instead of fixing the dam.

1416
00:53:30,740 --> 00:53:34,780
If the reading is about your job, the world reverse,

1417
00:53:34,780 --> 00:53:38,700
reversed suggests you feel restricted, frustrated,

1418
00:53:38,700 --> 00:53:41,620
or dissatisfied with your work situation.

1419
00:53:41,620 --> 00:53:43,860
So maybe you should become a mermaid.

1420
00:53:43,860 --> 00:53:45,100
- Exactly.

1421
00:53:45,100 --> 00:53:46,660
Yeah, do what you love.

1422
00:53:46,660 --> 00:53:49,820
- You thought you'd be further along by now,

1423
00:53:49,820 --> 00:53:53,100
yet you still need to put in more effort.

1424
00:53:53,100 --> 00:53:55,620
This card may also mean the end result

1425
00:53:55,620 --> 00:53:59,740
isn't what you'd expected and you feel a letdown.

1426
00:54:00,340 --> 00:54:04,180
- In a reading about love, a relationship

1427
00:54:04,180 --> 00:54:07,220
may not have developed according to your plans.

1428
00:54:07,220 --> 00:54:11,380
Despite your efforts, you still see areas that need work.

1429
00:54:11,380 --> 00:54:15,900
Don't let frustration or inertia cause you to give up.

1430
00:54:15,900 --> 00:54:17,700
- What if you're, oh sorry.

1431
00:54:17,700 --> 00:54:18,860
- No, go ahead.

1432
00:54:18,860 --> 00:54:22,380
- Happy your times may await just around the corner.

1433
00:54:22,380 --> 00:54:24,500
- What if you like kill your lover

1434
00:54:24,500 --> 00:54:27,180
from making love to him too hard?

1435
00:54:27,180 --> 00:54:32,180
- Yeah, I'm guessing that she didn't see it working out that way.

1436
00:54:32,180 --> 00:54:34,540
So there's that.

1437
00:54:34,540 --> 00:54:37,060
I pose a lot of it for me.

1438
00:54:37,060 --> 00:54:41,180
It's relating back to ocean conservation and stuff.

1439
00:54:41,180 --> 00:54:43,780
That's really where it's getting me this card.

1440
00:54:43,780 --> 00:54:48,180
Okay, there's actually two extra excerpts.

1441
00:54:48,180 --> 00:54:53,740
This first one says, and this is a quote from a tarot manual.

1442
00:54:54,700 --> 00:54:58,260
The world is a work of art, neither a mechanism,

1443
00:54:58,260 --> 00:55:02,300
nor an organism, nor even a social community,

1444
00:55:02,300 --> 00:55:07,300
neither a school on a grand scale, nor a pedagogical,

1445
00:55:07,300 --> 00:55:12,460
yeah, I think that's right, nor a pedagogical,

1446
00:55:12,460 --> 00:55:14,300
no, it's pedagogical, isn't it?

1447
00:55:14,300 --> 00:55:16,180
- I don't know what that means.

1448
00:55:16,180 --> 00:55:20,700
- Nor a pedagogical institution for living beings,

1449
00:55:20,700 --> 00:55:23,380
but rather a work of divine art

1450
00:55:23,380 --> 00:55:28,380
at one and the same time, a choreographic musical, poetic,

1451
00:55:28,380 --> 00:55:32,940
dramatic work of painting, sculpture, and architecture.

1452
00:55:32,940 --> 00:55:33,940
- Wow.

1453
00:55:33,940 --> 00:55:37,660
- Just like the ocean is so beautiful down there.

1454
00:55:37,660 --> 00:55:39,940
- Yeah, even though interesting.

1455
00:55:39,940 --> 00:55:42,140
- Even the fact that this is like the world card,

1456
00:55:42,140 --> 00:55:45,900
and it's like, I'm 70% of the world is water.

1457
00:55:45,900 --> 00:55:47,460
- Yeah.

1458
00:55:47,460 --> 00:55:48,860
- Wow.

1459
00:55:48,860 --> 00:55:51,940
- Okay, I'm gonna read the goddess excerpt here.

1460
00:55:51,940 --> 00:55:55,700
Shiva, God of creation, and destruction.

1461
00:55:55,700 --> 00:55:57,380
- That's what I forgot to bring you guys.

1462
00:55:57,380 --> 00:56:00,500
I forgot to bring my Shiva shell, my Shiva shell.

1463
00:56:00,500 --> 00:56:02,500
- Which obviously would have been perfect for that.

1464
00:56:02,500 --> 00:56:05,100
- Clearly we needed that for the altar.

1465
00:56:05,100 --> 00:56:05,940
- Don't it?

1466
00:56:05,940 --> 00:56:10,300
- The world card can be linked to Shiva,

1467
00:56:10,300 --> 00:56:14,340
the Hindu God who dances the world into being

1468
00:56:14,340 --> 00:56:16,180
and then destroys it.

1469
00:56:16,180 --> 00:56:16,940
- Wow.

1470
00:56:16,940 --> 00:56:20,100
- Only to again dance it into being

1471
00:56:20,100 --> 00:56:24,300
in the eternal dance of life, death, and rebirth.

1472
00:56:24,300 --> 00:56:25,540
- That's really cool.

1473
00:56:25,540 --> 00:56:26,380
- Yeah.

1474
00:56:26,380 --> 00:56:28,340
- I like how.

1475
00:56:28,340 --> 00:56:31,100
- I didn't even know like, I don't know why it's called

1476
00:56:31,100 --> 00:56:32,180
Shiva, I shall.

1477
00:56:32,180 --> 00:56:33,020
Like what?

1478
00:56:33,020 --> 00:56:33,860
- Yeah, I don't know.

1479
00:56:33,860 --> 00:56:35,900
- 'Cause I didn't really have anything to do with the ocean,

1480
00:56:35,900 --> 00:56:36,900
you know?

1481
00:56:36,900 --> 00:56:38,220
- No, I don't think so.

1482
00:56:38,220 --> 00:56:39,980
- It's interesting that like, yeah.

1483
00:56:39,980 --> 00:56:42,900
The name Shiva is in there, and then I relate it

1484
00:56:42,900 --> 00:56:44,620
to the ocean with my shell.

1485
00:56:44,620 --> 00:56:45,460
- Yeah.

1486
00:56:45,460 --> 00:56:46,500
- Interesting things.

1487
00:56:46,500 --> 00:56:47,340
- Yeah.

1488
00:56:47,340 --> 00:56:48,340
- Yeah.

1489
00:56:48,340 --> 00:56:49,580
- All connected.

1490
00:56:49,580 --> 00:56:50,580
- All connected.

1491
00:56:50,580 --> 00:56:53,340
- It all circles back.

1492
00:56:53,340 --> 00:56:55,820
- You got a little, what's that?

1493
00:56:55,820 --> 00:56:58,420
Coral reef of connection.

1494
00:56:58,420 --> 00:56:59,260
I don't know.

1495
00:56:59,260 --> 00:57:00,100
- Oh yeah.

1496
00:57:00,100 --> 00:57:00,940
- Yeah.

1497
00:57:00,940 --> 00:57:04,540
- I feel like maybe coral reef, like,

1498
00:57:04,540 --> 00:57:06,540
they all communicate to each other in the ocean

1499
00:57:06,540 --> 00:57:08,980
the same way that like mushrooms and trees

1500
00:57:08,980 --> 00:57:10,900
and other plants do here on land.

1501
00:57:10,900 --> 00:57:11,740
- Mm-hmm.

1502
00:57:11,740 --> 00:57:13,060
- It's connected.

1503
00:57:13,060 --> 00:57:14,980
- Just a hat, right.

1504
00:57:14,980 --> 00:57:17,740
- Well, should we open our gifts real quick?

1505
00:57:17,740 --> 00:57:18,580
- Oh, yeah.

1506
00:57:18,580 --> 00:57:19,420
- It's our birthday.

1507
00:57:19,420 --> 00:57:20,580
So we just, you know,

1508
00:57:20,580 --> 00:57:22,500
I was like, your presents.

1509
00:57:22,500 --> 00:57:23,540
I was like, oh yeah.

1510
00:57:23,540 --> 00:57:24,860
- But your presents too.

1511
00:57:24,860 --> 00:57:27,300
- 'Cause we're gonna do our birthdays just in one episode.

1512
00:57:27,300 --> 00:57:30,700
So we're not taking up 10 episodes with birthdays.

1513
00:57:30,700 --> 00:57:32,460
- I mean, I know.

1514
00:57:32,460 --> 00:57:33,300
- Oh.

1515
00:57:33,300 --> 00:57:35,100
(laughs)

1516
00:57:35,100 --> 00:57:36,100
- Okay, who should go first?

1517
00:57:36,100 --> 00:57:37,100
- You go first.

1518
00:57:37,100 --> 00:57:37,940
- Peace.

1519
00:57:37,940 --> 00:57:39,100
- Yeah, it's like your actual birthday

1520
00:57:39,100 --> 00:57:39,940
in a couple of days.

1521
00:57:39,940 --> 00:57:40,780
- Okay.

1522
00:57:40,780 --> 00:57:44,100
- (laughs)

1523
00:57:44,100 --> 00:57:45,420
(crash)

1524
00:57:45,420 --> 00:57:47,100
(laughs)

1525
00:57:47,100 --> 00:57:48,420
- Should I read the card first?

1526
00:57:48,420 --> 00:57:49,260
- Yeah.

1527
00:57:49,260 --> 00:57:50,100
- I should have just pulled out the card.

1528
00:57:50,100 --> 00:57:51,420
I'm struggling.

1529
00:57:51,420 --> 00:57:52,260
- Yeah.

1530
00:57:52,260 --> 00:57:53,700
- The struggle bus.

1531
00:57:53,700 --> 00:57:56,700
- I saw her writing this card right before we started recording.

1532
00:57:56,700 --> 00:57:57,780
(laughs)

1533
00:57:57,780 --> 00:57:59,900
- Yeah, 'cause I found the card and I was like, oh shit.

1534
00:57:59,900 --> 00:58:01,580
Like I didn't write anything.

1535
00:58:01,580 --> 00:58:02,580
Why am I so dumb?

1536
00:58:02,580 --> 00:58:08,500
- It's got astronauts on it.

1537
00:58:08,500 --> 00:58:09,780
- I can't believe you say alien.

1538
00:58:09,780 --> 00:58:10,620
- Alien, I know.

1539
00:58:10,620 --> 00:58:11,460
- I know.

1540
00:58:11,460 --> 00:58:12,300
- It's an astronaut.

1541
00:58:12,300 --> 00:58:13,140
- I almost said aliens too.

1542
00:58:13,140 --> 00:58:14,780
I'm like, it's aliens.

1543
00:58:14,780 --> 00:58:16,900
- Let's get this party started.

1544
00:58:16,900 --> 00:58:18,460
- Are we pink?

1545
00:58:18,460 --> 00:58:20,020
- Let's pink, right?

1546
00:58:20,020 --> 00:58:20,860
- Get the party started.

1547
00:58:20,860 --> 00:58:22,060
- That's for a key.

1548
00:58:22,060 --> 00:58:24,500
- Like from the black eyed piece.

1549
00:58:24,500 --> 00:58:25,340
- Oh no.

1550
00:58:25,340 --> 00:58:27,500
- Pink has a song, has that, yeah.

1551
00:58:27,500 --> 00:58:28,420
Never mind.

1552
00:58:28,420 --> 00:58:29,860
I guess there's more than one party.

1553
00:58:29,860 --> 00:58:30,700
- I'm sure, yeah.

1554
00:58:30,700 --> 00:58:31,540
- Like I'm pretty free.

1555
00:58:31,540 --> 00:58:32,780
- Maybe for a guy who has said,

1556
00:58:32,780 --> 00:58:35,620
get this party started at one point in a song.

1557
00:58:35,620 --> 00:58:36,460
(laughs)

1558
00:58:36,460 --> 00:58:37,860
- Let's get it started.

1559
00:58:37,860 --> 00:58:39,060
- Right, let's get it started.

1560
00:58:39,060 --> 00:58:40,140
Yeah.

1561
00:58:40,140 --> 00:58:40,980
Do you want me to read this?

1562
00:58:40,980 --> 00:58:43,460
Happy birthday to my co-host, BFF,

1563
00:58:43,460 --> 00:58:45,620
a party or a cry.

1564
00:58:45,620 --> 00:58:46,460
- Get it?

1565
00:58:46,460 --> 00:58:47,300
- You got it.

1566
00:58:47,300 --> 00:58:48,700
- You guys, you got it.

1567
00:58:48,700 --> 00:58:50,020
- You're my PAC.

1568
00:58:50,020 --> 00:58:53,140
You're my partner and creepy.

1569
00:58:53,140 --> 00:58:53,980
(laughs)

1570
00:58:53,980 --> 00:58:54,820
- In creeps.

1571
00:58:54,820 --> 00:58:56,340
- Oh, I love that.

1572
00:58:56,340 --> 00:58:57,180
- Partner and creeps.

1573
00:58:57,180 --> 00:58:58,020
- In jerbs.

1574
00:58:58,020 --> 00:59:02,300
- I didn't get hit on a card because I'm a monster.

1575
00:59:02,300 --> 00:59:03,460
- I don't know.

1576
00:59:03,460 --> 00:59:06,420
I just, I honestly stumbled upon that.

1577
00:59:06,420 --> 00:59:08,220
- Is this the one I almost bought myself the other day?

1578
00:59:08,220 --> 00:59:09,900
And I was like, I can't, I can't.

1579
00:59:09,900 --> 00:59:11,580
- I think so.

1580
00:59:11,580 --> 00:59:15,380
Yeah, I did the digital download for the book too.

1581
00:59:15,380 --> 00:59:16,740
- Oh, cool.

1582
00:59:16,740 --> 00:59:18,980
- Yeah, so I'll send you that.

1583
00:59:18,980 --> 00:59:20,460
I almost just sent it to you

1584
00:59:20,460 --> 00:59:22,060
'cause I was like, oh yeah, I got to send her the thing

1585
00:59:22,060 --> 00:59:23,980
and then I was like, don't do that yet.

1586
00:59:23,980 --> 00:59:25,740
- Maybe like, oh, why are you sending me this?

1587
00:59:25,740 --> 00:59:26,740
I don't even have a dial.

1588
00:59:26,740 --> 00:59:27,580
- What?

1589
00:59:27,580 --> 00:59:28,420
(laughs)

1590
00:59:28,420 --> 00:59:31,380
- Oh, it's a mushroom spirit or a cult act, by the way.

1591
00:59:31,380 --> 00:59:32,220
- Yeah.

1592
00:59:32,220 --> 00:59:33,940
- And I'm pretty sure, yeah, I was eyeballing that

1593
00:59:33,940 --> 00:59:35,660
in "At Through the Veil"

1594
00:59:35,660 --> 00:59:37,940
when I think we were getting tail in.

1595
00:59:37,940 --> 00:59:38,780
- Yeah.

1596
00:59:38,780 --> 00:59:39,380
- Something and I was like,

1597
00:59:39,380 --> 00:59:41,260
"Eh, I should get this for myself."

1598
00:59:41,260 --> 00:59:42,100
- Me too.

1599
00:59:42,100 --> 00:59:44,460
- Don't need to do this.

1600
00:59:44,460 --> 00:59:45,300
- Thank you.

1601
00:59:45,300 --> 00:59:46,140
- Here's the welcome.

1602
00:59:46,140 --> 00:59:47,620
- Mushroom.

1603
00:59:47,620 --> 00:59:49,900
- We talked about mushrooms just a couple of seconds ago.

1604
00:59:49,900 --> 00:59:51,060
- Oh, we sure did.

1605
00:59:51,060 --> 00:59:54,940
And you just had, we just literally talked about mushrooms

1606
00:59:54,940 --> 00:59:57,100
like "At length" in an episode.

1607
00:59:57,100 --> 00:59:58,860
We reported the tree one.

1608
00:59:58,860 --> 01:00:00,180
- It'll be, yeah.

1609
01:00:00,180 --> 01:00:01,020
- Ooh.

1610
01:00:01,020 --> 01:00:04,700
- What kind of rock is that?

1611
01:00:04,700 --> 01:00:05,900
- I cannot remember.

1612
01:00:05,900 --> 01:00:06,740
- I was like, what am I?

1613
01:00:06,740 --> 01:00:08,340
- I was like, I'm gonna fucking idiot.

1614
01:00:08,340 --> 01:00:09,420
It's a moor.

1615
01:00:09,420 --> 01:00:12,580
- I saw that and I was like, no freaking way.

1616
01:00:12,580 --> 01:00:13,580
- So pretty.

1617
01:00:13,580 --> 01:00:15,420
I said, you guys, oh my god,

1618
01:00:15,420 --> 01:00:18,020
I'm so sorry, the story is hilarious.

1619
01:00:18,020 --> 01:00:23,700
I'm so sorry to tail in our video editor/socialmedia

1620
01:00:23,700 --> 01:00:28,100
with social media like Queen.

1621
01:00:28,100 --> 01:00:28,940
- Yep.

1622
01:00:28,940 --> 01:00:29,940
- I was trying to think of something.

1623
01:00:29,940 --> 01:00:33,940
- She's more than just the best.

1624
01:00:33,940 --> 01:00:35,140
- She's all of the things.

1625
01:00:35,140 --> 01:00:38,020
She's the glue holding this whole operation together.

1626
01:00:38,020 --> 01:00:39,220
- Yeah, and I'm an asshole.

1627
01:00:39,220 --> 01:00:40,580
And I didn't know that she's like,

1628
01:00:40,580 --> 01:00:45,580
definitely afraid of moss and butterflies apparently.

1629
01:00:45,580 --> 01:00:46,940
- I didn't know that either.

1630
01:00:46,940 --> 01:00:49,300
And I said to picture of a moth in her text thread.

1631
01:00:49,300 --> 01:00:51,620
And I was like, oh my god, look at this cute moth.

1632
01:00:51,620 --> 01:00:53,500
And this was just like a couple of days ago.

1633
01:00:53,500 --> 01:00:54,340
- Oh my god.

1634
01:00:54,340 --> 01:00:57,180
- She's like, I'm gonna have a panic attack.

1635
01:00:57,180 --> 01:00:58,460
And I was like, oh sorry.

1636
01:00:58,460 --> 01:01:00,300
I'm so sorry.

1637
01:01:00,300 --> 01:01:01,140
Oh no.

1638
01:01:01,140 --> 01:01:01,980
Oh my god.

1639
01:01:01,980 --> 01:01:05,180
But then she sent a picture of a spider

1640
01:01:05,180 --> 01:01:06,540
and I felt better.

1641
01:01:06,540 --> 01:01:08,100
I'm sorry and not a spider.

1642
01:01:08,100 --> 01:01:10,340
- Not better about either of these things.

1643
01:01:10,340 --> 01:01:11,300
- Not, by the way.

1644
01:01:11,300 --> 01:01:14,340
Just in case anyone was wondering how I felt.

1645
01:01:14,340 --> 01:01:15,180
- It's fine.

1646
01:01:15,180 --> 01:01:16,220
- It was one of the daddy long legs.

1647
01:01:16,220 --> 01:01:17,500
That's not a spider.

1648
01:01:17,500 --> 01:01:20,180
- Oh my god, they are spiders.

1649
01:01:20,180 --> 01:01:23,820
Oh there's, I thought I was done.

1650
01:01:23,820 --> 01:01:25,260
You guys, she hates it.

1651
01:01:25,260 --> 01:01:27,340
She threw it on the ground.

1652
01:01:27,340 --> 01:01:28,980
(laughing)

1653
01:01:28,980 --> 01:01:30,660
- Thrown on the ground.

1654
01:01:30,660 --> 01:01:32,220
- It's a little pan.

1655
01:01:32,220 --> 01:01:34,380
This is carry yourself with the confidence

1656
01:01:34,380 --> 01:01:36,500
of a mediocre white man.

1657
01:01:36,500 --> 01:01:38,300
- Yay.

1658
01:01:38,300 --> 01:01:39,740
- I do wear this everyday.

1659
01:01:39,740 --> 01:01:41,580
- We should be so lucky, am I right?

1660
01:01:41,580 --> 01:01:42,420
- Seriously.

1661
01:01:42,420 --> 01:01:43,420
- For cereals.

1662
01:01:43,420 --> 01:01:44,740
- For cereals.

1663
01:01:44,740 --> 01:01:47,420
- Oh cute.

1664
01:01:47,420 --> 01:01:50,020
- That's a little skull.

1665
01:01:50,020 --> 01:01:51,820
- Like a skull ghosty guy.

1666
01:01:51,820 --> 01:01:52,660
- I would like to.

1667
01:01:52,660 --> 01:01:55,020
- He looks like, I mean he's obviously a skull

1668
01:01:55,020 --> 01:01:57,020
but he kind of also looks ghosty too.

1669
01:01:57,020 --> 01:01:57,860
- He does.

1670
01:01:57,860 --> 01:01:58,700
- Yeah.

1671
01:01:58,700 --> 01:01:59,540
- Yeah.

1672
01:01:59,540 --> 01:02:01,380
- I was like, okay, well obviously I know

1673
01:02:01,380 --> 01:02:02,660
where you need to live.

1674
01:02:02,660 --> 01:02:03,500
- Okay.

1675
01:02:03,500 --> 01:02:06,420
- I put a bunch of my pins now on that coffin.

1676
01:02:06,420 --> 01:02:08,260
The coffin word.

1677
01:02:08,260 --> 01:02:09,100
- Yeah.

1678
01:02:09,100 --> 01:02:10,820
- A little message board.

1679
01:02:10,820 --> 01:02:13,220
- Yeah, I put my pins all over that now, whatever.

1680
01:02:13,220 --> 01:02:15,860
- Love it.

1681
01:02:15,860 --> 01:02:17,020
- Thank you.

1682
01:02:17,020 --> 01:02:18,660
- You love everything.

1683
01:02:18,660 --> 01:02:20,900
- Yeah, it's like your smallest gift

1684
01:02:20,900 --> 01:02:22,420
like in the history of ever.

1685
01:02:22,420 --> 01:02:23,900
- I mean, I got you like one thing.

1686
01:02:23,900 --> 01:02:24,740
So I was like,

1687
01:02:24,740 --> 01:02:26,500
our wedding's coming up, it's fine.

1688
01:02:26,500 --> 01:02:27,340
- Yeah.

1689
01:02:27,340 --> 01:02:28,180
- It's like a little change.

1690
01:02:28,180 --> 01:02:29,180
- She's got enough coming.

1691
01:02:29,180 --> 01:02:30,180
- I know.

1692
01:02:30,180 --> 01:02:31,420
- It's a lot right now.

1693
01:02:31,420 --> 01:02:32,580
She's just a lot.

1694
01:02:32,580 --> 01:02:33,420
- Yeah.

1695
01:02:33,420 --> 01:02:34,260
- She's just a lot.

1696
01:02:34,260 --> 01:02:35,580
- But it's a good one, I promise.

1697
01:02:35,580 --> 01:02:36,420
Good gift.

1698
01:02:36,420 --> 01:02:37,860
- I'm excited.

1699
01:02:37,860 --> 01:02:38,980
(laughing)

1700
01:02:38,980 --> 01:02:41,380
- I think I know what it is, you guys.

1701
01:02:41,380 --> 01:02:42,380
- I knew when I brought mine.

1702
01:02:42,380 --> 01:02:43,220
I was like,

1703
01:02:43,220 --> 01:02:44,100
ooh, she's gonna be so jealous.

1704
01:02:44,100 --> 01:02:45,780
She doesn't even know I already got her one.

1705
01:02:45,780 --> 01:02:47,340
- Sure was.

1706
01:02:47,340 --> 01:02:48,180
Okay, guys.

1707
01:02:48,180 --> 01:02:53,180
This, I think you can probably make out what this is.

1708
01:02:53,180 --> 01:02:55,460
Oh boy.

1709
01:02:55,460 --> 01:02:57,180
Oh, put it right up to my face

1710
01:02:57,180 --> 01:02:59,180
'cause that's where we have the camera focused.

1711
01:02:59,180 --> 01:03:02,260
- I love how it is.

1712
01:03:02,260 --> 01:03:03,820
- And I have the infinity sign on it

1713
01:03:03,820 --> 01:03:06,260
that we also just talked about with this card.

1714
01:03:07,780 --> 01:03:09,700
- Okay, so it's like a cello night with,

1715
01:03:09,700 --> 01:03:12,780
in case you can't quite puzzle this one out.

1716
01:03:12,780 --> 01:03:13,780
(laughing)

1717
01:03:13,780 --> 01:03:14,780
- It's a magician.

1718
01:03:14,780 --> 01:03:16,140
Or no, no, no, I'm sorry.

1719
01:03:16,140 --> 01:03:18,660
It has the infinity symbol like the magician.

1720
01:03:18,660 --> 01:03:20,740
It always reminds me of the magician,

1721
01:03:20,740 --> 01:03:21,900
which is similar. - Yeah.

1722
01:03:21,900 --> 01:03:22,860
- Yes.

1723
01:03:22,860 --> 01:03:24,220
But it's the string card.

1724
01:03:24,220 --> 01:03:25,060
- It is.

1725
01:03:25,060 --> 01:03:26,220
- It's the string card.

1726
01:03:26,220 --> 01:03:27,780
- 'Cause you guys, I don't know if you knew this,

1727
01:03:27,780 --> 01:03:29,060
but I'm a Leo.

1728
01:03:29,060 --> 01:03:29,900
- She is.

1729
01:03:29,900 --> 01:03:31,740
- So.

1730
01:03:31,740 --> 01:03:32,580
- And. - It's like,

1731
01:03:32,580 --> 01:03:34,020
has a lion on it?

1732
01:03:34,020 --> 01:03:36,420
- Yeah, they didn't have the magician one.

1733
01:03:36,420 --> 01:03:38,180
- I got my stuff for cool.

1734
01:03:38,180 --> 01:03:39,020
- Yeah.

1735
01:03:39,020 --> 01:03:42,540
- It's like your zodiac card is cooler than mine,

1736
01:03:42,540 --> 01:03:44,580
mine's just the chariot, which is like, it's cool.

1737
01:03:44,580 --> 01:03:46,060
- It's like the chariot's cool.

1738
01:03:46,060 --> 01:03:47,580
- It's like, you know.

1739
01:03:47,580 --> 01:03:48,900
- You're not excited about it.

1740
01:03:48,900 --> 01:03:50,940
- It's like a string card, you know?

1741
01:03:50,940 --> 01:03:52,100
So I was go for the fool,

1742
01:03:52,100 --> 01:03:53,860
which is like my other favorite card.

1743
01:03:53,860 --> 01:03:54,700
So.

1744
01:03:54,700 --> 01:03:58,500
- Well, you know, I think typically when people think of me,

1745
01:03:58,500 --> 01:04:01,700
what they think of is obviously, you know.

1746
01:04:01,700 --> 01:04:02,860
- Strength.

1747
01:04:02,860 --> 01:04:03,700
- Yeah.

1748
01:04:03,700 --> 01:04:04,860
(laughing)

1749
01:04:04,860 --> 01:04:07,140
- It's not strong, tall,

1750
01:04:07,140 --> 01:04:09,980
is it a upper body strength?

1751
01:04:09,980 --> 01:04:12,180
- I feel like the strength you have is more.

1752
01:04:12,180 --> 01:04:13,220
(laughing)

1753
01:04:13,220 --> 01:04:14,580
- Inside.

1754
01:04:14,580 --> 01:04:16,380
- Yeah, like we're no inconsious.

1755
01:04:16,380 --> 01:04:17,220
- Yeah.

1756
01:04:17,220 --> 01:04:18,620
(laughing)

1757
01:04:18,620 --> 01:04:19,460
- You guys, it's there.

1758
01:04:19,460 --> 01:04:21,260
We swear, like you just can't see it.

1759
01:04:21,260 --> 01:04:22,540
So.

1760
01:04:22,540 --> 01:04:23,780
I don't know when to tell you.

1761
01:04:23,780 --> 01:04:26,620
- Happy birthday.

1762
01:04:26,620 --> 01:04:27,620
- Leo.

1763
01:04:27,620 --> 01:04:29,140
- Leo season is coming.

1764
01:04:29,140 --> 01:04:30,420
- Leo season.

1765
01:04:30,420 --> 01:04:31,940
- But it's cancer season right now, bitch.

1766
01:04:31,940 --> 01:04:34,100
And we're about to go to my pool party.

1767
01:04:34,100 --> 01:04:35,180
- Pool party.

1768
01:04:35,180 --> 01:04:37,380
- My summer win party.

1769
01:04:37,380 --> 01:04:38,900
Wait, did I even show?

1770
01:04:38,900 --> 01:04:40,660
I mean, I showed them in like,

1771
01:04:40,660 --> 01:04:43,100
when we were being silly, but let me show my shirt.

1772
01:04:43,100 --> 01:04:44,460
- Show me a lot of pop.

1773
01:04:44,460 --> 01:04:46,580
(laughing)

1774
01:04:46,580 --> 01:04:48,420
- Wearing my Halloween costume,

1775
01:04:48,420 --> 01:04:49,540
which I was a dead mermaid.

1776
01:04:49,540 --> 01:04:52,580
So I have a skeleton top with sea shells on my boobs.

1777
01:04:52,580 --> 01:04:53,660
- Sea shells.

1778
01:04:53,660 --> 01:04:56,060
- And that is my summer win costume.

1779
01:04:56,060 --> 01:04:57,140
- I love it.

1780
01:04:57,140 --> 01:04:58,700
I love it.

1781
01:04:58,700 --> 01:05:01,580
- I mean, it's approximately 8,000 degrees.

1782
01:05:01,580 --> 01:05:05,100
So I am not wearing my mermaid costume.

1783
01:05:05,100 --> 01:05:05,940
- Yeah.

1784
01:05:05,940 --> 01:05:06,780
- No.

1785
01:05:06,780 --> 01:05:09,420
- We did use it in our alter setup though.

1786
01:05:09,420 --> 01:05:10,260
- Yeah, we did.

1787
01:05:10,260 --> 01:05:11,740
- We might have to take a couple of like,

1788
01:05:11,740 --> 01:05:14,180
still shots of it so that you can like,

1789
01:05:14,180 --> 01:05:16,860
see that it's like the mermaid.

1790
01:05:16,860 --> 01:05:17,700
- Yeah.

1791
01:05:17,700 --> 01:05:20,260
- I mean, you can kind of tell in the tarot video.

1792
01:05:20,260 --> 01:05:21,260
- Yeah.

1793
01:05:21,260 --> 01:05:22,100
- Yeah, well, okay.

1794
01:05:22,100 --> 01:05:24,300
- Really, I really want to drive at home.

1795
01:05:24,300 --> 01:05:26,460
Like, mermaid is fuck you guys.

1796
01:05:26,460 --> 01:05:27,740
- It's so mermaid.

1797
01:05:27,740 --> 01:05:28,820
- It's so mermaid.

1798
01:05:28,820 --> 01:05:31,140
- I had that mermaid skirt, the skeleton skirt.

1799
01:05:31,140 --> 01:05:32,700
Obviously, I wasn't gonna wear that today

1800
01:05:32,700 --> 01:05:34,700
'cause it's like a full length.

1801
01:05:34,700 --> 01:05:35,540
Yeah, no.

1802
01:05:35,540 --> 01:05:36,380
- No.

1803
01:05:36,380 --> 01:05:39,220
- Again, we're sitting on the surface of the sun.

1804
01:05:39,220 --> 01:05:40,060
- Yeah.

1805
01:05:40,060 --> 01:05:40,900
- Currently.

1806
01:05:40,900 --> 01:05:41,820
- You're not under the sea?

1807
01:05:41,820 --> 01:05:42,660
Unfortunately.

1808
01:05:42,660 --> 01:05:43,500
- No.

1809
01:05:43,500 --> 01:05:44,340
(laughing)

1810
01:05:44,340 --> 01:05:45,180
- No, not the sea.

1811
01:05:45,180 --> 01:05:47,260
- Okay, we know we gotta stop because I will.

1812
01:05:47,260 --> 01:05:48,540
- Yeah, yeah, okay.

1813
01:05:48,540 --> 01:05:52,540
- Okay, well, we need to go so we can get to my Jacolanna

1814
01:05:52,540 --> 01:05:54,820
and watermelon that I carved.

1815
01:05:54,820 --> 01:05:59,340
And the other fun summer win stuff we have to do.

1816
01:05:59,340 --> 01:06:01,820
- Yeah, we need to go do a little tasty test.

1817
01:06:01,820 --> 01:06:03,920
- Oh yeah. - To the sangory.

1818
01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:04,760
- The sangory, yeah.

1819
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:06,940
It's like a fall/summer sangory.

1820
01:06:06,940 --> 01:06:08,980
- Yeah, thanks for bringing this in a min.

1821
01:06:08,980 --> 01:06:14,100
- I was like walking all over Jardir Joe's.

1822
01:06:14,100 --> 01:06:16,820
Like, they don't have cinnamon in any kind.

1823
01:06:16,820 --> 01:06:17,660
- Oh no.

1824
01:06:17,660 --> 01:06:18,820
- It's like, what is happening?

1825
01:06:18,820 --> 01:06:20,940
- I have cinnamon sticks so I can grind them up

1826
01:06:20,940 --> 01:06:23,620
in my mortar and pestle and be witchy.

1827
01:06:23,620 --> 01:06:25,300
Put them in jars. (laughing)

1828
01:06:25,300 --> 01:06:26,300
- Yeah.

1829
01:06:26,300 --> 01:06:27,140
- Wow.

1830
01:06:27,140 --> 01:06:28,620
- All right.

1831
01:06:28,620 --> 01:06:31,100
- I threw them in so they're cinnamon-

1832
01:06:31,100 --> 01:06:32,420
- Okay, perfect.

1833
01:06:32,420 --> 01:06:33,260
- A way.

1834
01:06:33,260 --> 01:06:34,100
- Awesome.

1835
01:06:34,100 --> 01:06:35,460
- Yeah. - Yeah, let's go drink it.

1836
01:06:35,460 --> 01:06:36,300
- Let's go.

1837
01:06:36,300 --> 01:06:37,860
- Okay.

1838
01:06:37,860 --> 01:06:40,460
- Have a creepy ass day.

1839
01:06:40,460 --> 01:06:41,540
- We'll see you next Tuesday.

1840
01:06:41,540 --> 01:06:42,540
- See you next Tuesday.

1841
01:06:42,540 --> 01:06:44,140
- Or-- - Or,

1842
01:06:44,140 --> 01:06:45,780
- Make sure under the sea.

1843
01:06:45,780 --> 01:06:47,140
- Yeah. - Swimming around

1844
01:06:47,140 --> 01:06:49,300
doing mermaid choreography.

1845
01:06:49,300 --> 01:06:50,300
(laughing)

1846
01:06:50,300 --> 01:06:51,860
- Living a silent life,

1847
01:06:51,860 --> 01:06:54,660
just flowing with the ocean,

1848
01:06:54,660 --> 01:06:56,340
smoking your seaweed,

1849
01:06:56,340 --> 01:06:58,940
which is what I'm about to do as soon as we cut.

1850
01:06:58,940 --> 01:07:01,180
(laughing)

1851
01:07:01,180 --> 01:07:02,220
- Why wait?

1852
01:07:02,220 --> 01:07:03,540
- I know, right? - Yeah.

1853
01:07:03,540 --> 01:07:06,300
- Oh, it's like kind of mermaid colored.

1854
01:07:06,300 --> 01:07:07,220
- Oh, cute.

1855
01:07:07,220 --> 01:07:09,180
I didn't even realize.

1856
01:07:09,180 --> 01:07:11,180
- It's everything that's everything.

1857
01:07:11,180 --> 01:07:13,760
(upbeat music)

1858
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:17,580
- God, what is that called?

1859
01:07:17,580 --> 01:07:20,220
Is that on a monopia?

1860
01:07:20,220 --> 01:07:21,940
- Maybe.

1861
01:07:21,940 --> 01:07:22,940
- Yeah, that sounds great.

1862
01:07:22,940 --> 01:07:24,100
- Is that like a smell?

1863
01:07:24,100 --> 01:07:24,940
Wait.

1864
01:07:24,940 --> 01:07:26,100
- No.

1865
01:07:26,100 --> 01:07:26,940
- No.

1866
01:07:26,940 --> 01:07:27,780
- Hold on.

1867
01:07:27,780 --> 01:07:28,940
- Hold that, I'm gonna look at that.

1868
01:07:28,940 --> 01:07:31,020
- Yeah, where it's like a sound is a word.

1869
01:07:31,020 --> 01:07:33,700
- Okay, so on a monopia,

1870
01:07:33,700 --> 01:07:37,620
the formation of a word from a sound associated

1871
01:07:37,620 --> 01:07:39,540
with what is named.

1872
01:07:39,540 --> 01:07:40,380
- Broom!

1873
01:07:40,380 --> 01:07:42,060
- So like sizzle.

1874
01:07:42,060 --> 01:07:43,460
- Oh.

1875
01:07:43,460 --> 01:07:45,060
- Yeah. - Meow.

1876
01:07:45,060 --> 01:07:45,900
- Meow.

1877
01:07:45,900 --> 01:07:47,620
- Rough, rough.

1878
01:07:47,620 --> 01:07:50,020
- Real words that sound like real things,

1879
01:07:50,020 --> 01:07:53,580
real words made to evoke the sound of real things,

1880
01:07:53,580 --> 01:07:55,860
made up words that sound like real things

1881
01:07:55,860 --> 01:07:59,940
and a series of letters that mimic a raw sound.

1882
01:07:59,940 --> 01:08:01,140
- Ha ha ha ha.

1883
01:08:01,140 --> 01:08:03,140
(laughing)

1884
01:08:03,140 --> 01:08:05,540
- Oh good. (laughing)

1885
01:08:05,540 --> 01:08:08,380
- We're just gonna do an on a monopia episode.

1886
01:08:08,380 --> 01:08:09,940
- Sounds good.

1887
01:08:09,940 --> 01:08:11,300
- 'Cause I'm a p-on-a.

1888
01:08:11,300 --> 01:08:13,220
I'm an on-a mon p-on-a.

1889
01:08:13,220 --> 01:08:14,220
Okay, we're done.

1890
01:08:14,220 --> 01:08:16,860
Oh, stupid, cut that out. (laughing)

1891
01:08:16,860 --> 01:08:18,740
- Don't you dare. (laughing) pnwhauntsandhomicides.com
