Transcript

[A]

Welcome to the Past Times. It's a podcast. Someone's finally doing it. You know, we do here. Each week, we go through a newspaper from a random date in history picked out by none other than Dave Anthony. I, Gareth Reynolds, have never seen it, and neither has this week's guest, the great Katie Boyle. Hi, Katie.

[B]

Hi.

[A]

How are you?

[B]

I'm good.

[A]

You just ran from the subway, we heard.

[B]

Yeah. From the bus in Edinburgh, so.

[A]

Oh, you're in Edinburgh.

[B]

Yeah. It's pretty.

[A]

We can't do this anymore. We don't work with people who are. How's it going?

[B]

It's going good. I just hope that the. The guy that's also here doesn't, like, walk into the kitchen and be good with us.

[A]

Who's he? You don't know?

[B]

Yeah, my rib. But I did that before, bro. He's probably going to be like, what's going on?

[A]

I'll be honest. You have great energy always. But I felt like something was a little off when you started. Like, I. We did talk about gunpoint being maybe happening, but you're just afraid someone's going to walk in and you're ashamed of podcasting, as you should be.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. No, but I also tried in the room and it wouldn't work, so I sent Alex a picture of it, but I think it was just a WI fi. I don't know. I feel like I'm in my 20s again, you know, like, weird Wi fi. I only have one plate.

[A]

What. What is yours? What's the show you're doing called? Where can people get tickets? We have a huge Edinburgh following.

[B]

Oh, great.

[A]

I don't mean that. I'm not. But I'm sure we have a couple.

[B]

I don't expect we kind of have a couple, you guys.

[A]

Yeah, we're doing great. I know.

[B]

Yeah. But you have listeners, so they can watch my special therapy called.

[A]

Therapy.

[B]

Yeah, but no, I'm in Monkey Barrel. It's called Roie Wade versus Katie, so get my abortion rights. Classic.

[A]

Well, we probably shouldn't get into that because we probably don't see eye to eye. Dave and I are. Well, we're. We're really happy with the way things shook out. We're finally. We finally repealed that awful, awful law. Well, that's great. Well, good for you, Katie. Well, how long are you there?

[B]

The whole month? Just fired. Three days, but, yeah, the whole time.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

Good Lord. Well, good for you.

[C]

And then. And then where? And then where do you go after that?

[B]

Back to the States? Yeah, I've got shows in the States.

[C]

Do you think you'll be getting. Do you think you'll be getting arrested at the border or what? Do you think you're gonna make it?

[A]

Dave's a glass half full kind of guy. Just so you know.

[B]

Maybe. Because maybe when they hear about my shows, about. They're kind of just heeding about them.

[C]

Do you get a little nervous when you cross the border now?

[B]

I got nervous when I was crossing the border 10 years ago. Yeah.

[C]

Yeah, that's right.

[B]

I'm bringing myself as well.

[A]

Yeah, right. Yeah.

[B]

I love my path of distraction.

[A]

Oh, that's wild. All right, well, look, Katie. Well, what time is it there? It's probably supper time. Yeah, well, so we'll let you get to your supper soon. Okay, so we're gonna go. You've been here before, but we're gonna go through this newspaper. It's gonna be old. And. And we'll try to have some fun. So as the guest, you're allowed to guess what year you think this paper will be from. Remember, it's old. So. So go ahead. Then I'll guess, and then you'll win. Sounds stupid, but we're doing it.

[B]

1880.

[A]

Great guess. 1906, Dave.

[C]

It is 1947. So a tie.

[A]

Yeah. Okay, I won.

[C]

It's a tie. That.

[A]

No, yeah, Katie.

[C]

Katie won. It was the first person who says it wins. I mean, that was the rules.

[A]

God damn it.

[C]

Congratulations to Katie. Hate it. Is the conquered Monitor from conquered New Hampshire. July 1, 1947.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

Big day in American history.

[A]

Sure.

[C]

What happened, Gareth, on that day?

[A]

It's the day they made the best jam.

[C]

That's right. Construction workers fight on scaffold.

[A]

Ah. So, John Wickian. That's awesome. That is the best thing to see walking down the street ever. And I'm including the Beatles playing on top of that building in London.

[C]

I'm surprised someone hasn't turned this into an actual sport with pay per view and all that scaffold fighting.

[A]

Scaffold scuffles.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Irish.

[A]

Yeah, they were Irish.

[C]

They gotta be, right?

[A]

Have to be.

[C]

Two Baltimore construction workers were recuperating today after a struggle on a scaffold four stories above the ground before hundreds of onlookers.

[A]

I mean, can I be honest? I'm let down by the story level.

[C]

You were hoping for something better, like 35. 35 stories. 4 stories is not enough? No, they can still die. Four stories.

[A]

They can die for sure. There's no. They'll. They definitely could die. But I want the, like, Superman stakes.

[B]

They could kill someone. On the way down as well, you know?

[A]

Yeah. There's just a lot of banging in the building they could do. The higher, the better. I've always said that.

[C]

But then. Then the viewers below can't see it as well, so you do have to have a. I want you to.

[A]

Okay, you might be right. I might have overshot story wise. I want to 22. I want to be able to see it.

[C]

I think it's like eight. Honestly, I'm fine with eight. Four you're not happy with at all.

[A]

Four. I. I'm happy. I'm happy. I'm greedy. I want to. I want to be like, oh, my God, these guys are gonna die.

[C]

Katie, what's your. What's your number?

[A]

I know. I'm upset by that too, if I'm being totally honest.

[C]

Katie, what's your number? What's your floor number? 4.

[B]

Because my eyesight, you know?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I want to see.

[C]

Okay. Yeah. Gareth doesn't care about. Gareth is like. Gareth is a eugenicist. He wants just perfect people, and he doesn't care about eyesight or anything.

[A]

Look, by the way, we keep my beliefs on eugen. Eugenics off air, and we always have.

[B]

Show us your genes. Show us your genes.

[A]

I'm not pulling the Sydney Sweeney. No, I'm not gonna Sydney Sweeney, by the way. That was what that. That as that happened, that was one of those things where I, like, heard it and ignored for like three days until I was like, well, what the hell is going on? And I, like, finally looked it up and I was like, what?

[C]

I was like, who cares? Like, it's just a jeans app. But I did. I did like that. Out of that, we found out that she's a right wing lunatic. So that's good.

[A]

Yeah, it's great.

[C]

So tremendous. If people don't know. Sydney Sweeney has been doing target shooting with two of the most horrendous, despicable cops. Father daughter team, who have killed, like, four people. Really just monsters, but that's who she hangs out with. Anyway, the participants were Edward Jones, 41, who suddenly felt ill while. While chipping bricks on a downtown building yesterday, and Warren Catherine, 64, who swung himself up to the rescue on a boatswain's chair. A boat swain's chair.

[B]

Wait, so they weren't having a fight? He was trying to save them?

[C]

No, it's how one guy fell ill. So maybe

[B]

I thought the whole time it was.

[C]

Yeah, right.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. It's really. This is how you do headlines, though? Because I was like, oh, yeah, I want more and now you're like, wait, what? Like a senior citizen helped a sick guy on a beam. Much different.

[C]

When Catherine attempted to steady the dazed man on the wooden perch, Jones started frantically struggling.

[A]

There we go.

[C]

Catherine said he finally tried to knock Jones out to quiet him.

[A]

That's the best for. For safety. I need to make this man go unconscious.

[C]

I got. I gotta put him down.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

It has nothing to do with him texting my wife.

[A]

Yeah, no, completely unrelated. Just trying to beat a guy with a board. I'm doing this for your Safet.

[B]

This is, like, all parents.

[A]

Yeah, totally. You're for your own good, Kathleen.

[C]

And he needed the help of Jesse Walker, 38, to hold him while firemen raised a ladder to take them all to the ground.

[A]

Wow.

[C]

It's a. If this was, like, man, the setup off the headline, like, we were all ready to go, like, it was big.

[A]

But the second I knew they both survived, I was kind of like,

[C]

we now finally have a. A sport that if you and I started, we could finally get on Rogan.

[A]

Yeah. Dana White would be like, I'm interested.

[B]

You can. Yeah.

[C]

All right.

[B]

You could have Conor McGregor do it, and hopefully he falls.

[A]

What are your. What are your thoughts on that? How popular is he in Ireland now? It feels like he's Trumpy. It's. Is it pretty unified?

[B]

No, no. Like, it's a small minority. They just happen to be loud on X. But no, we don't. We don't like him, but it's okay because his. His willy got released so that they freed Willie. Yeah, but it looks. It looks gross, so that was great. That was great for the parish at home.

[C]

Why does it look gross? What happened?

[A]

I'll tell you right now, Dave. I'm looking it up.

[B]

It's wonky. And he put weights on it, so it was a wonky weighted willy.

[A]

Oh, why would you. What do you.

[C]

What?

[A]

Who.

[C]

Why. Why would you wait up your dick now?

[A]

Wait, are you seeing bare penis?

[B]

Yeah. Yeah, it was on Reddit because he sent them to. What's her name, Alicia something.

[C]

And then she sent it to a lady.

[B]

Yeah. And then she posted them because he's being rude to her.

[A]

You can't do both. You can't send the dick and be a dick. You've gotta. You're not all you've gotta be. Once the dick sent, you've gotta really lock it up your head.

[B]

Don't put your head in there. No head.

[A]

Never. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. This is what now? Okay, hold.

[B]

Oh, my God.

[A]

It Looks like. It looks like a rain stick. Like they're trying to find water now. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I can't unsee Conor McGregor's dick. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Conor McGregor's dick is like a Muppet character.

[C]

It looks like it's made from felt. Are you seeing it now? It's all blocked out where I'm looking, dude.

[A]

It looks like it's just very. It's. It's a decent size, but you're right, the curve is problematic. And I won't get into it too much, but it's definitely. I don't know. You don't put your face on that one. As you said you could send it, but you don't attach your face.

[B]

They put their little, like, little weights on their nipples, you know? Look.

[A]

So how do you know that he puts weights on his.

[B]

It's in the picture. I don't see that. There's, like, weights hanging up it.

[C]

Karis just finding other dick pics of Conor McGregor.

[A]

I think I am. Oh, no, there's the weight one. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. What is with him? Oh, the ads, you know?

[C]

You know, you gotta. Everybody has their own way to get a lady, and he has his own special way, you know, Married.

[A]

I mean, she. She seems to give him qu. A leash from there. Seems to be. She seems to just be willing to hang in there, like, wait on a tr.

[B]

Through, like, court cases.

[A]

Yeah. Through, like, rape and all. And she's still like. I believe him.

[B]

Oh, God. Yeah.

[A]

He's in the closet with weights on his.

[B]

So he could be there. He can do that. Wait, who from your. Who from your country will play against him on the. On the board in the sky? What's it called? Scaffolding.

[A]

Oh. Who would be our. Who would fight Conor McGregor on the scaffold?

[C]

I. I want to say I love the Irish term for a scaffold, which is bored in the sky.

[A]

Board in the sky, by the way, that's me on a plane. Yeah. Who is our best. Who's our biggest dipshit? Who would go up there? You know, it would be good. Rogan would be good. It would also be good to send Joey Chestnut, the hot dog eating champion, up there, and he could just take it down and one.

[C]

Okay. But there's a new guy that my. He's not. He's an old guy, but my son showed me him yesterday, and he's a guy who eats stuff like. Yeah, I watched him eat two cacti.

[A]

What is he, like a mukbanger?

[C]

I don't know what that is. But he. He also put. He also put milk out for a month and then drank it. So he just does stuff. He's called La Beast. And I would like him to take on Conor McGregor.

[A]

Boy, this really. There's some guy who like, leaves chicken outside for like a month and then. Oh, this guy.

[C]

Yeah. There's a bunch of guys do this stuff. Yeah, it's just, it's. It's.

[A]

We've crossed the Rubicon when it comes to, like, oh, yeah. Information. Like, there's just been too much information for too long. So now people are like, you don't need to poop. Like, there's just like a lot of, like, resistance to realities. And. And it's getting fun.

[B]

We've gotten to that point where if you're like super weird and do whatever you want, that's cool. Like, you're like, be you. But it's also swimming the other side where like, you're like, I don't eat milk that's fresh. I wait till it's got really better civilization.

[A]

You need a hook. It's like, like Conor McGregor's erect penis. There's a hook that you have to have a hook. And if you. Everyone has a hook. It's like the like Liver King. Like that guy. Like, what? Anyway, anyway, anyway, this isn't about the Liver king or Conor McGregor's that he lifts weights with. This is about two legends.

[B]

Hero. Yeah, the hero, the old man is saved. What do you say he was?

[A]

He was.

[C]

Hey. What? He what? How old was he?

Her grandfather, former u. S. Congressman John Tolan, 70, died from a heart attack last night, apparently induced by the shock and excitement.

[A]

Oh, my God.

[C]

So she killed her grandfather.

[B]

He sacrificed himself. He made a deal with that guy who's. The death. The death guy, you know, with the hood, and he came for Mary, the reaper and then the death guy with the hood. Take me. That's also Conor McGregor's penis.

[A]

Okay. If we're gonna get into it, the uncircumcised nature of the penis was also strange. It did look like a worm trying to like, molt. It was. Every part of it was tough.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

But yeah, he made a deal with death and saved the granddaughter's life.

[A]

Found innocent. Walter Pettis was found innocent. Was found innocent on a charge of passing a red light and was ordered discharged following hearing before. This is a article in the paper about a guy going through a red light.

[A]

They've had a good start, though. For as far as papers we go through, this has had a good start. There's been like. I mean, they're reporting on Conor McGregor's penis in the 40s. This article was this is ahead of its time periodical.

[C]

But it's crazy that like imagine if you go through a red light and then just everyone's giving a about it. The paper.

[A]

Like I read about what you did.

[C]

Hey, stay away from my kid.

[A]

Yeah, disgusting.

War Vet entertains Representative Charles Whittles. No Whitties. It's a terrible name.

[A]

Yeah. Either way, it's a loss.

[C]

I think it's actually, I think it's Whittier. Whittier of Bethlehem handed the mock session a treat with an exhibition of rope twirling.

[A]

All right, boys, get ready to your pants with joy.

[C]

This is. This is rope. This is a different. This was a different time in Congress.

[A]

Ropes.

[B]

I didn't understand any of this. Who did the twirls? Who did the tricks? What happened?

[C]

The. A congressman from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in front of Congress did rope twirling to entertain.

[A]

And Congress is like, whoa, Whoa, look at you. And that's where the. That's where the congressional whip comes from, Dave. Yeah. Better. Better.

[C]

Have you. Have you heard the phrase dtm? He learned the business while serving in the armed forces on the Alaskan highway in Canada during the war. With long hours and evening on his evenings on his hands and nothing else to do.

[A]

Wow.

[B]

Don't even know what road swirling is.

[A]

I think it's like lassoing and stuff like that. Probably right, Dave? Like.

[B]

Oh, okay, okay. You know the. The poster. What's it called? Shanghai or Shang? You know, the poster girl. And she's with all the sheets, like silky rope sheets. The legs are spread.

[A]

Whoa. All right, now I'm back. Let's.

[C]

Whoa. Now I'm into it. Go ahead.

[B]

That's what I was thinking. About. He was up there with like satin sheets, you know, that sort of twirling.

[A]

I. I just went to look something up and I gotta say, Conor McGregor's penis is in far too many of my windows.

[C]

I think it's literally. You're just. You're just doing tricks with the rope and that's it. In the last. Yeah, you've seen it, right? And you can, like jump through the rope. You can jump through the lasso.

[A]

Yeah, but that, that, that's what I mean. That's lassoing.

[C]

I mean, I guess it's lasting to me means you're. You're going and getting like a.

[A]

It's the manipulating of a rope to create various shapes and movements, often for entertainment or for performance. Yeah, it's lassos. It's lassos and twirling and all that. You know, you're putting. You're going through it a little bit. It's. It's very stupid.

[C]

I mean, you're. You're dark. Yeah, you're dark.

[A]

Yeah, it's very stupid.

[B]

The.

[C]

The Australian flying fox is a wire and pulley device which moves bananas to the packing sheds at four miles an hour.

[B]

Honestly did not understand that either. What is happening?

[A]

What's the innovation? So Australia's come up with a banana moving device.

[C]

They gave it a nickname, like they do in Australia.

[A]

That's right.

[C]

They call it the Flying Fox.

[A]

It's the Flying Fox. It's a banana mover.

[C]

Yeah, it moves. Yeah, it moves bananas. They put them on the thing and it takes them across to the packing area or whatever. That's what we're talking about.

[B]

Just. But it's not.

[C]

No, it's not an animal at all.

[A]

No,

[C]

it'll be great if it was an animal.

[A]

It's just. It feels like Australians innovate for problems that don't exist. Like, nobody was ever like, these bananas are so slow. And then Australia, we figured it out. Now you can get one there in four miles an hour. That'll be faster.

[C]

So it's going really, really slow. And they're like, oh, it's like a flying fox.

[A]

That's exactly what this reminds me of.

[B]

Wait, was this. This was in an American newspaper.

[C]

Yes, that's right.

[B]

About Australian bananas. But was bananas even in America at the time? Same time. Because they weren't in there.

[A]

Yeah, we had to.

[C]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

[B]

They didn't come in Ireland, like the 70s or something.

[A]

I know.

[C]

Are you me right now? Are you kidding?

[B]

Yeah, because my dad was born in 64 and he remembers when he had a banana for the first time.

[A]

What?

[C]

Really?

[B]

It was a poor country. Yeah. Yeah.

[A]

I just saw a picture of an Irish countryman with a banana of yours.

[B]

We have it now.

[C]

That sounds more like an oppressed country than a poor country. That sounds like they're keeping the bananas from you.

[B]

Well, it was oppressed.

[C]

Yeah. That's what I'm saying. I'm sure. And I'm sure the. The Brits were pounding bananas at that for years before.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And then the Catholic Church wouldn't give the bananas because of the sexual nature of it.

[C]

Shut the up. Shut the up.

[A]

That would be amazing. Be the best. No, it says bananas were actually in America before Americans were in America. I don't know how that happened because I'm pretty sure that this land was up for grabs.

[C]

The first banana to reach Britain was in 1940. So there you go. So it was oppression. They became common. That can't be right.

[A]

The first Brit eating a banana must have been the most horrifying sound ever.

[C]

Oh, God. Yeah.

[A]

Yeah. Those shark teeth just delicately like. It's quite tangy.

[C]

Married and single men will play baseball Friday.

[A]

So men will play.

[C]

A baseball game will be played between the married men and the single men of Pembroke.

[B]

I thought they were excluding divorced men.

[A]

Oh, the divorce. Shall we up?

[C]

Damn it. So great if they did.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

The divorce dads are just like, why go out? What's the point?

[A]

Well, she moved on. I know. Mine, too.

[C]

Why should I hit? Yeah.

[A]

I was gonna get laid a lot more. All right. On my money. On. On the married guys.

[C]

No, really? Singles.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

100. The married guys are tired. They have kids and they're taking.

[A]

Singles are out there doing too much stuff. They're partying.

[C]

That might be true. That might be true.

[A]

The marriage.

[C]

Need this marriage do need it. Horace Blackmar and Emory Chickering will be in charge of the married man and Shabburn Chickering of the single man. All interested.

[A]

Okay, hold on. Can we talk about Mom, Pa Chickering and what's going on? What was this? What are the names of the children?

[C]

Emery is clearly the dad. Emery Chickering. And she burned Chickering. Son, the sun.

[A]

We can't eat because of my wife. She burned Chickering. Enjoy it, Dave.

[C]

Well, DTM Eva Braun reported in Italy securing funds.

[A]

Wait a minute. So did. Did Eva Braun have, like an Elvis sort of lore about her after or. What year is this really?

[C]

47. I think they. I think people are like, I saw Hitler.

[A]

Hitler's wife.

[C]

Lady Peace side piece action.

[A]

She.

[C]

I don't think They. I don't think they did it, though. Weren't they, like, asexual or some weird. I don't know. Allied Allied officials today were investigating recurrent rumors that Eva Braun, Adolf Hitler's mistress, had appeared on various occasions recently in the Alto Adige area of northern Italy.

[A]

In Rome.

[C]

Allied press officers denied several days ago that there was any truth through reports, but said they would investigate. It's not true.

[A]

We're looking at Eva Braun. She was in a park under some bramble.

[C]

Reports circulating here today said a woman resembling Ava Braun and speaking with a German accent went.

[A]

So a German woman was there? And they were like, that's it. We're thinking we found a Hitler's wife. That's it.

[C]

That's all it is.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

She went to a savings bank at a Fondo in the Trent district last week to cash a 50,000 Lear check, which is about $135.

[A]

Wow. So she's.

[C]

Yeah, she was. Report. She was reported to have displayed papers at Innsbruck and inscribed with the name Ava Broad.

[A]

Oh, so she's banking under her own name.

[C]

Yeah, that's what he.

[A]

Seems a bit strange for the bank of Hitler.

[C]

Jitterbug contest. A jitterbug contest will be among the features of the 12th Annual Field Day Program marking the 4th of July at the state prison. Well, that got. That got weird. That was.

[A]

Dance competition at the prison.

[C]

Attractive programs in red. Yeah, I know a lot of words. Right.

[B]

By the time I'm processing jitterbug or whatever, I've missed the rest.

[A]

Jitterbug was. How did the jitterbug go, David? Do you even know?

[C]

I don't know. I honestly don't know how that. Yeah, it's a dance, but I don't know what kind of dance. You probably jitter and then you bug, right?

[A]

Good stuff, sir.

[B]

Like what you do after.

[A]

Yeah, no, it's supposed to be withdrawals. Well, jitterbug also eventually became a. A phone for the elderly here with big numbers. Okay. It's a. It's a bit of a rock and rolly dance. Okay.

[C]

Attractive. Yeah. That's great.

[A]

It's where you hold each other and you kind of. You rock. Seems like it's every dance now that I'm looking at the still images.

[C]

Okay, I think I know what it is now. You really explained it. Attractive programs in red, white and blue colors were distributed today to friends of the inmates and the prison personnel. There will be pie and cracker eating contests. A fat man race for inmates weighing. Guess how much. Guess how Much.

[A]

It's got to be like 180 pounds.

[C]

It's 190

[B]

was fat.

[A]

90, that's like below average now. Oh, a fat man race of like regular looking. This is a race.

[C]

It's like guys with dad bods. That's all it is.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[C]

Or more. And a special race for inmates. 50 years or more. 50 old man. The old man race. There will also be long races open to all inmates, although the course will naturally be restricted to the confining brick walls.

[A]

It'd be great if they. That was their main. The mistake they made at the prison. Yeah. Boys. Right as far. Boy, it's really taking a while to come around that corner. I. Hank. Oh, sweet mother of God. You idiot.

[C]

Oh, that sounds like.

[A]

That makes prison sound fairly fun. Yeah. There's like pie and dancing. Fat man races.

[C]

We have such a weird. Like, you're always supposed to be suffering in prison as opposed to just like. Well, you're locked away, so you're suffering already. That's the. That's the whole point.

[A]

So many countries treat it as rehabilitative and America's like, this is a punishment. Well, it's not. It's not even that. It's a matter of. It's profitable.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

As we're seeing now more and more.

[C]

But. Yeah, that's right. It's profitable.

[A]

But they. You like murderers in like Denmark. They're like, we're teaching him to understand what he did wrong. And the guy's like, so now I bake bread. And that's really teaching me. And like, he'll be out in 17 years after he learned his lesson. He's like, what, Jay, was you beaten here?

[C]

No. Now you can. An American prison. Well, you get. You learn how to do like credit card fraud while you're in there. And you get out, you're like, well, now to make a lot of money.

[A]

Yeah, it's awesome. What are you gonna say, Katie?

[B]

Well, well, two things, I guess. Those other prisons also set up to help them when they're out. I think in American system, there's no help when they're out. But. But there is a prison in America that has. They give them cats and then that teaches them empathy. And if they're really good, they get to keep their cat. And if they. If they're really good at their cat, they get like special presents for the cats.

[A]

I feel like I've heard of this.

[C]

There's also one. They have them.

[A]

It's great.

[C]

Have them train dogs for the blind. So they get a dog and Then they, they train it to.

[A]

It'll just be so much better.

[C]

Then they have to let it go, which is bad. But they get a dog for a little while.

[A]

Yeah, but that's. You'd rather them be fostering than fostering rage at the system? No, Our system here is based on recidivism. It's important that they return as soon as possible, you know, because who's going to be our firefighters and telemarketers?

[C]

So firefighters. Yeah, they're all grill cooks. Denny's needs. Denny's needs workers.

[A]

It's what's happening right now with the like, America really didn't think through anything. Thank you.

[C]

Boys turn on fire hydrants get suspended. Sentence of 60 days.

[A]

Wow.

[C]

Turning Guess how. Guess. So boys, Boys, guess how old they are.

[A]

5, 5 and 8.

[C]

Turning on three fire hydrants on North Pembroke Road last night resulted in 60 day house correction sentences for two youths. Oscar Drew, 18, and Leslie Ash, 19, were apprehended by police. Hydrants were found turned on and the youth pleaded guilty.

[A]

Just boys.

[C]

That's what we used to also be like. Well, they're young. They don't know.

[A]

Yeah, we know. I remember when I was like a kid and they were like, they're trying an 11 year old as an adult. And I was like, I don't think you're allowed to do that to a kid in the whole.

[C]

It's really.

[A]

Can't fight an age war against the child. You're a man.

[C]

You're a man now. You're a man. Justice Stevens suspended sentence upon condition of good behavior after testimony by the pair that they would leave immediately to take jobs offered them at a summer resort. All right, well, okay, so they got. Yeah, okay, sure. Still claim landlord set fire.

[A]

Clint A.

[C]

Back in Boston, a Back Bay landlord faced district court arraignment today on a charge of setting a fire as a means of evicting a tenant against whom

[A]

he had a great way to do it.

[C]

Successful.

[A]

Yeah, that's a great way to do it.

[C]

But then you don't have a.

[A]

No, that's short sighted. You're right. There's a part you're finally like, they finally left. Like, well, you're not gonna be able to rent it for years. Like.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, that's right.

[A]

That was. Damn it.

[B]

Oh, but you'd be, you'd be surprised. The landlords, you know, they'll rent you a Burnstone.

[A]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. In New York they'd be like, this lovely charred themed room is going to go for $2,300 a month, utilities included, once they're back up and running. God, it's just gorgeous.

[C]

Arrested by state police, the man was booked as Fred Cherwinsky.

[A]

I'd like to be booked under the name Fred Cherwinsky.

[C]

State Police Lt. Theodore Johnson, attached to the state fire marshal's office, said Cherinsky entered the apartment of a Ms. Lena Clingman on Sunday and set fire to a bedroom. It caused 2,000 in damage.

[A]

I kind of love it. I mean, I do kind of love it a little bit. I love the. I love being at that level of wit's end. Just. Just be like it. I'm burning her bed.

[C]

Yeah. He must have been really trying to get her out because he had to

[A]

feel great in the moment.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

I mean, in the moment. It's one of those, like. In the moment, as soon as it starts, you're like. But while you're doing it, this is truly. I will show her.

[C]

It just. It really goes to show how bad landlords are, though. I think we can all agree.

[B]

Even the 40s.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah, always.

[A]

Well, I remember when I moved into this place in Studio City, and the woman next door was, like, deranged. And the guy, the building manager, I was like, is the woman next door crazy? He was like, yeah. And I was like, cool, awesome. And he's like, we can't get her out. I was like, what? And it was like, they legally had to repaint her apartment every, like, eight years or something. It was some law so they could get her out for like, three days. And I remember I just walking by one day, got a glimpse of the inside, and it was chaos. And she had a skeleton hanging. And I was like, sure.

[C]

Ah, that was her old roommate.

[A]

All right. Yeah, yeah, it's the person from before. So I would have liked it if they let her bed on fire.

[C]

Anvil Chorus venture failure in Boston the Boston Symphony Orchestra's hopes of approaching the noise made by this city anvil chorus of 1872 fell short by a lot of sound last night.

[A]

So explain.

[C]

I don't know what's happening.

[B]

Okay, I don't understand that either, but

[A]

at least we're all aligned in not being sure what this is.

[C]

But there was clearly a record set in 1872 for how loud a concert was. Maybe, but how can you judge that?

[A]

It was just some guy. He was like, that's louder than the last one.

[C]

Wow. That's the. How they. Wow.

[A]

Really loud.

[C]

The idea was to obtain about 20, 000 chorus singers who would raise voices loud enough with the Beat of anvils to give off.

[A]

I hate like this. Where they're just like. I. I hate when they go to break records. Breaking records is so when they're like, we're gonna make the world's biggest enchilada. And like, who gives a stop.

[B]

Anvil as well. Is that like.

[C]

Okay?

[A]

No, the anvil's the.

[B]

Isn't that.

[A]

Well. And cartoons in anvil is a big weight.

[C]

That's not what. I don't think that's what it is.

[A]

Could be.

[C]

If you look up Anvil orchestra.

[A]

I'm just looking. Everything I googled comes up to Conor McGregor's.

[B]

Yes, the cop wasn't loud enough for the sound barrier.

[A]

No, it's kind of. It's kind of like the. It's. It's kind of like the cartoony anvil a little bit. It's like a big block of metal and I guess it plays an anvil.

[C]

An Anvil orchestra is a group of musicians who perform live musical accompaniment accompaniment to silent films. But I don't think there were silent films in 1872.

[A]

No. I believe you're probably. Could have just been some sort of vaudeville show.

[C]

Oh no, it's okay.

[A]

It's like an anvil.

[C]

It's an actual anvil. It's. An anvil has been used as a percussion instrument because it is. Makes a fairly loud sound when hit by a hammer. So you're hitting it with a hammer and then people are singing. That sounds really dumb.

[A]

It sounds really loud though. That's what matters. It's not supposed to be good.

[C]

Okay. They're gonna get 20,000 singers with the beat of anvils to give off sound waves to compare with those of the World Peace Jubilee and International Music Festival three quarters of a century ago.

[A]

That's really stupid.

[C]

Only. Only 38 people registered for the chorus.

[A]

Oh, what?

[C]

So that's less than. That's less than 20,000.

[A]

Yeah, it's a bad little bit. That's good though. I like that. Stops these people from doing that. Stupid. Yeah, we're gonna scream the loudest ever together.

[C]

Critics agreed, however, that the audience estimated by police at 34, 000. Okay, now why not get some of

[A]

them on the other side of this?

[C]

Have them sing.

[A]

34, 000 people showed up to watch. 38 people not got. Not get anywhere near breaking a record. Well, okay.

[C]

And conductor Arthur Fliedler's musicians made a brave try as voices were raised in rendition of the Anvil Chorus from Verdi's opera. I'm not going to pronounce that from Handel's or no, Il Travatore. But their efforts were described by the experts as nothing compared to the jubilee event. That festival had 20,000 choirs and red shirted Boston firemen beating 200 anvils. Okay, so you can't. But how if you can't measure that because it's.

[A]

Yeah, it's just some guy.

[C]

Like, how. How are you ever comparing it?

[A]

No, you can't.

[C]

Yeah, it's dumb. The whole thing is dumb.

[B]

Well, you definitely can compare these two situations though, because there's 40 versus 20,000 singers.

[C]

That is true.

[A]

Yeah, I think that's fair to say.

[C]

You're. That is very.

[A]

You're falling short. Yes. You look very proud, Katie. You're like, scientifically speaking, I believe I have returned with an answer. So just so you know,

[C]

Women eligible for jury duty. Well, this upsets me.

[B]

Me.

[A]

Wow.

[C]

This is when it all. This is when I went to hell.

[A]

Right. This is what your show's about, right, Katie? Sort of loosely. What's Ro versus Wade?

[B]

You know what? I just thought it was a fun. Thought it was a fun title.

[A]

That had to change court. Like, the lawyers are like, can you believe this? Horrible.

[C]

Women may now serve on New Hampshire juries, but it's easier said than done as far as Concord women are concerned. Jury service for the fair sex, as provided by the Holden act passed by the 1947 legislature, is voluntary, and women are required to register with town and ward voting officials if they wish to serve. The law went into effect on July 1, but no machinery has been set up to take care of voluntary registration for jury services.

[A]

No machinery. So it doesn't matter.

[C]

Yeah, they didn't put anything in place. So women are. Women are coming, going, I would like to serve on jury. And they're like, I don't know how to. What am I going to write your name down? I don't know. What.

[A]

Yeah, you could probably just write my name down and that would probably be.

[C]

Yeah, I don't know.

[A]

What are you gonna do?

[C]

Because we don't have a thing. We don't have a place for. Right.

[A]

I'm gonna take you to court over this. Okay. Outside with me. Yeah.

[B]

That's crazy to think, you know, the way they try. They try to do juries as diverse as possible now in case, you know, whoever. Yeah, but then all that time before, if a woman was, you know, being tried, being tried for. Sorry, my voice is very high pitched. I don't blame you that being for being tried against murdering her husband. The jury's Just men. They're always going to go for the dead husband.

[A]

Always.

[C]

Always.

[B]

So women were screwed before that.

[A]

I have. And since then, there's really no. That's just. Yeah, that's all it's been the entire time is just.

[C]

Although the only place that they do well is divorce court.

[A]

Yeah, I guess so.

[C]

I mean, I don't mean. I don't mean money wise. I mean, like, they would always be like, yes, she can have this. The children. Yeah, that would always be the thing. That's the only time.

[A]

But I think the guy. Yeah, the guy secret was like, that's fine. That makes. That makes more sense. Honestly. I'm an alcoholic who I threaten violence a lot against the family. That makes sense.

[C]

Literally everywhere else. Everywhere else, they. They just get shaft. Ward supervisors in Concord haven't been notified what their duties are or how to handle prospective women jurors.

[A]

So, women, welcome to courtroom. I can see on the vacant looks you are not understanding. What is this place?

[C]

This is a judge,

[A]

Judge, women. Okay. I don't think this is gonna work.

[B]

I feel like you guys are the guys shouting at me.

[A]

That's the vibe we like on this show. Yeah. Yeah. I also like the idea that it had to be volunte. The idea that jury duty used to be voluntary. So much better when you used to have to be like, I'd like to do it instead of now. Like, whenever I get a jury summons, I'm always like, oh, my God. How am I gonna pretend I never received this?

[C]

I always kicked off the jury.

[A]

I don't do it.

[C]

I always get kicked off the jury. So I stopped. I stopped doing it because I got kicked off every time.

[A]

Yep.

[C]

Yes. No. Because I always said how much.

[A]

How much I hate you hated other races.

[B]

Oh.

[C]

And they never want me on their jury, which is the truth.

[A]

So I was on. I was on a jury, a prospective jury once of the guy. The guy on the jury to get thrown off. He just goes, I don't believe in laws. And the judge was like, what? And he was like, yeah, I don't believe in law. And she was like, no. She, like, wasn't having it. And then eventually she was like, get out of here. And I was like, I cannot believe that worked. He was like, he, like, doubled down. He's like, I don't believe in law. She was like, you have to. He's like, no. She's like, you showed up to jury duty. You believe in some law.

[C]

I don't believe in it, but I know it'll come after Me, but personally, I don't believe in it.

[A]

It was awesome.

[C]

So several who have applied for jury service have been given the brush off by their ward officials. In other words, officials are ready and waiting to take the names of women willing to serve on juries, but so far, nobody has bothered to apply.

[A]

Wow. Oh, wow. It's so funny getting the right to do that and being like. Actually sounds like a really shitty right. So we're good?

[B]

Yeah. Yeah. Imagine getting that right.

[A]

Yeah, that's. That's what men came.

[B]

You couldn't divorce your husband. There you were like, in property, you were like,

[A]

no. But then they were like, women, We've heard you. You can sit through boring trials and weigh in. You're welcome. Equality is here.

[C]

This is a little blurb. In monkeys and apes, the number of pairs of ribs varies from 11 in some species to 15 in others.

[A]

That's awesome, Eric.

[C]

I know you're a big animal guy. Break it down.

[A]

Well, I. I don't really know. I just know that if you sent someone off to go, like, research that and they came back and they were like, there's a rib different, Katie.

[B]

One of them is able to blow himself and the other can't.

[A]

So the main advantage is that the chimpanzee, which has less ribs, is able to suck its own dick. We call this the Manson breed.

[B]

The other species has been known to try to pull his own ribs out.

[A]

The other rib species is trying to train one of the head gorillas to rip out the ribs of others so they can fellate themselves. Man.

[C]

Yes. I'm a scientist. Thank you for asking.

[A]

Yes. So I can't. Let me tell you. There's a lot of monkeys with less ribs sucking their own dicks. Ted, can we talk to you over here? Hold on, let me just finish this TED talk.

[C]

I've got a whole chart now of the animals I've discovered who can suck themselves.

[A]

So lizards can't suck their own dicks unless you push their head really hard, which I was doing in the field a lot. A lot of these animals can suck their dicks if you really push it hard. The McGregor monkey has trouble getting into its mouth because it's always pointing westward.

[B]

But. But the species use him as a compass when they need to go west.

[A]

Yes, but he's also a weather Vanessa.

[C]

Carnival offers.

[B]

He uses his to bring bananas faster.

[A]

He's also played a trick on some of the other apes where he put his dick in between a peeled banana skin and had them peel it, only to see his weird de. Hooded Shaft.

[C]

It's called the pervert monkey.

[A]

It's called.

[C]

Carnival. Offering $50 for finding Bob Hope.

[A]

Oh, my God. Speaking of monkeys that suck their own dicks,

[B]

is Bob Hope the artist Bob Hope?

[A]

No. Bob Po. You're thinking that's Bob Ross? Bob Hope was like a. He was like a comedian Entertain in the 40s, 50s movie actor. He would go on, he started the USO tours, but he was also a total rapey old creep who, you know, was a piece of racist.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, he was like the number one comedian back then.

[A]

He was huge.

[C]

A 50 reward was offered today for the capture of Bob Hope. A carnival which played Claremont last week wants him back and posted the reward after he was recaptured yesterday, but escaped again.

[A]

I tell you, boy, they finally got me and put me back in the circus guy.

[C]

Bob Hope, by the way, is a monkey.

[A]

Yeah, I knew it was a monkey that could suck his own dick.

[C]

He farted on the rooftop of a North street house and was lured into a cage bar Carnival employee, but took advantage of his keeper's failure to close the cage door and sped off again.

[A]

Man, if it was the real Bob Hope, this whole thing would be a lot better.

[C]

Oh, my God, it would be so much better.

[A]

He was a real piece of.

[C]

He really was. Troy Amnesia victim queried woman, 35 carried keen bus ticket. Bus ticket and Benson trophy. Keen. Police sought to determine today if a woman amnesia victim who is being detained in a Troy, New York hospital may be a resident of this vicinity unable to identify herself.

[A]

Why do we feel like amnesia stopped? Does amnesia still happen?

[C]

Yeah, every once in a while you see a story, but I think it felt more common back then because I

[A]

think I feel like back then there was tons of amnesia.

[C]

Well, you could lie more. You're like, yeah, I don't know.

[A]

How could you not do that now? It's so easy to do this now

[C]

with the Internet and everything. You can't. People, they'll find out. It's easy to find out who someone is, I think now.

[A]

But you could still feign that you have it, though. Like, I could still be like, I don't remember anything.

[C]

Yeah, you can still faint. Yeah. Amnesia. You're on a podcast.

[A]

What is amnesia

[C]

that would be so long to be around someone with amnesia.

[A]

Amnesia. And they keep forgetting it's him. Yeah. Oh, man. It's called a fork, Kathy. I don't think this is how it works.

[C]

Unable to identify yourself. When she arrived in Troy Monday night, The woman, about 35, carried a bus ticket of the Cheshire Transportation Company. keen. And a lucky piece of from the Benson Wild Animal Farm at Hudson. That's two really weird things to. Well, the bus ticket makes sense.

[A]

Sure.

[C]

The other one. Troy police turned their investigation into New Hampshire. Troy police also enlisted this, the aid of the Keen Sentinel, which published a picture of the woman's day in something to establish her identity. Okay, so that's it. So there's just a lady who doesn't know who in the she is. That's fine.

[A]

That could be a lot of closure.

[C]

Yeah. Hold up. Suspect killed in New York. A suspected bandit fleeing from the scene of a $10,000 holdup in the Times Square area was shot to death by a patrolman in a crowded bus. Cheese.

[A]

Wow. Eric Adams pornography.

[C]

There is a video that I saw today of a Oklahoma cop and he's chasing someone in a car on the highway for stealing a watermelon.

[A]

Oh, my God.

[C]

And while he drives, he takes out his high powered weapon and is. And is shooting it as he drives down the highway. And you can see cars coming the other way.

[A]

I. At some point they just, like, at some point they were just like, they, they just, it really is. They just became a different. The, the idea became different at some point.

[C]

Yeah, they, they can, they're literally people in our society who can do whatever I want.

[A]

Yeah. And they're just like, if it doesn't matter, like, there's just, there's, there's supposed to be a line for when you do that. It's like there's danger. You don't go like, yeah, we're going to get that watermelon back to its legal grocery store.

[C]

And now there's all these stories of rural cops acting bad. And that's because when they get fired from cities, they just go get a job out in the country. So now they're like, we're having, we're having issues. All these cops, like, yeah, you keep hiring the ones that are getting fired.

[A]

What's it like in. What is the vibe? And were you there when Trump came to Scotland, Katie? Was it?

[B]

I heard it on the news, but yeah, I don't know, like in Ireland and the cops are, you know, they just have sticks and stuff.

[A]

No, I always think that, like, there's even in most other countries, you're like, I mean, I don't love authority, but this is fine. Whereas in America, there's genuine danger in America.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I think the last time I left the country, I went to Italy for two weeks and I didn't see a cop the whole time.

[A]

No, there's just like, it's so much people really do not people in this country are complete acceptance of what this is supposed to look like.

[C]

Yeah, totally.

[A]

It's like, it's fine. Well, I mean, why do you take the watermelon, like, literally? People in the comments of videos. Sorry, dude. This is what happens when you take a watermelon. Sorry, bro.

[B]

Yeah, and these people who comment that are the same people who probably drunk drove or like.

[A]

Oh, yeah,

[C]

always.

[B]

But then they're like, God forbid, a watermelon.

[A]

Yeah, no, always the fully. They're like, cancel culture. Watermelon went woke up.

[B]

You know, is that like some of the cops are descendants of Irish people who fled the famine and fled oppression in Ireland. A lot of the people at that time were stealing like oats of bread just so they could feed themselves in Ireland. And if they got caught, they were sent to prison islands in Australia. So it's ironic now that their descendants who just like, didn't get caught for the bread but got to escape to America are now, like, doing the same thing. Isn't that bad when you think about it. Like, a watermelon is the same as a loaf of. Loaf of bread being sent to a prison in the other side of the world for the rest of your life is the same as a man driving there shooting at you. Like, it's not.

[A]

Well, yeah, they really were excited. I mean, they. I mean, they were very excited to get people over to Australia so that everything that was being done, they're like that, get out you go now. Here now.

[C]

When I was in high school, I worked in a grocery store and a guy stole a sandwich, and I chased him down and caught him. And he's like, I'm hungry. And I'm like, okay, take the sandwich.

[A]

As you were, sir. I didn't realize that's what it was.

[C]

Oh, yeah, I wasn't thinking. Go ahead. Yeah. The patrolman, whose name was not immediately available, of course, was wounded in exchange of shots with the alleged holdup man. 40 persons were on the bus as the suspect chased the patrolman, chased by the patrolman, darted into the front open door of the vehicle, which was halted a block east of Times Square. Police said they found on the dead man several articles of jewelry allegedly stolen from a nearby store. And then he had in his pocket a disabled veterans card. Oh, so he's a disabled veteran. And a Florida driver's license bearing the name Joe Fernandez. Okay, so he's a lot of boxes checked here. Came back from the war, can't find work. He, because he's disabled, tries to, you know, now he goes to crime, and then he'd be great for the new.

[A]

Shoot him. Scaffold, scuffles, get him up there, and

[B]

then if you win, you win a watermelon.

[A]

Yeah. You get a water. Sweet, sweet, juicy watermelon.

[C]

So. So what's better? Letting a guy get away with the jewels or just waiting until he comes off the bus? Or scarring 40 people for life with PTSD? Seeing a man shot dead in front of them?

[A]

Well, I. I mean, if I'll play devil's advent, the think of how awesome the cop felt. We never take into consideration how cool the cops feel. Beating the innocent or shooting people or scarring bystanders. It's important.

[B]

He's a vet, and, like, he fought in World War I. Yeah. You know, you're kind of like, oh, you just keep the jury. Yeah, you earned it.

[A]

Well, we have this obsession with, like, taking care of veterans. Like, we need to help veterans. And then it's like, nobody does that. And you're just like, what about that part? More like, don't talk about that. Just support them. Support them when they go to war. Katie, thank you for joining us on the past times. Appreciate it. People can go watch your special therapy, and I'm not doing. Go ahead. Minus the H. Minus the H. Exactly.

[C]

And you guys will get an H. They'll get an H at some point over there. We're all rooting for you.

[B]

Yeah, we don't. We don't want your H's, and we don't want your trumps.

[A]

Wow.

[B]

We want to keep our windmills.

[C]

It's thrump.

[A]

You know, you're gonna. Yeah, you'll. You'll see that we're right. They cause cancer. Well, thank you, Katie. Appreciate it.

[B]

Thank you. Thank you, Katie. Bold comic. Go over, watch it, and then tell me that you watched it from here. Tell me, watch therapy from here and I'll know.
