Episode 109: Cheeto Dust, Black Frogs of Chernobyl, & Astrological Signs of Serial Killers

[00:00:00] Hey everybody, it's me Kathleen Madigan, welcome to Madigan's Pubcast.

[00:00:12] You grab yourself a drink, pull up a bar stool, let's talk about what's been going on.

[00:00:18] Termites?

[00:00:24] Episode 109?

[00:00:31] I have hidden Fred Bird because the Cardinals are out of it.

[00:00:35] It was embarrassing.

[00:00:37] It was, I can't even talk about what my feelings on the first game.

[00:00:46] We were winning in the ninth.

[00:00:47] I can't even go through it, I get too angry.

[00:00:49] I do not know why this guy wouldn't pull a pitcher.

[00:00:52] At one point he hit a guy.

[00:00:54] I mean clearly he is not in the strike zone.

[00:00:57] He hit the batter.

[00:00:59] You got to go to bye bye now, go to your nine night.

[00:01:01] This is, oh that was very sad.

[00:01:04] So now I have to think about who I'm going to lend my loyalties to.

[00:01:10] Maybe the Braves.

[00:01:11] Well, I have to stay National League.

[00:01:16] Maybe the Dodgers for my friend Chuck.

[00:01:19] Maybe.

[00:01:20] I don't know but they're more of an enemy than the Cardinals than the Braves.

[00:01:23] The Braves aren't really, I know.

[00:01:28] And then I have so many, I have more friends in Atlanta.

[00:01:30] No, I'm going to Atlanta for my comedian friend George Wallace.

[00:01:33] And my friend Kathy aka Steven.

[00:01:38] The Saints fan, the dumb one in our league.

[00:01:40] Well no dumber than me in seventh place.

[00:01:42] So there's all dumb, it's all dumb people.

[00:01:45] But some people are exceedingly dumb.

[00:01:49] Super dumb I got beaten in the children's league by a 14 year old or less.

[00:01:52] I don't even know, I don't even know.

[00:01:54] One of the very young people kicked my ass.

[00:01:57] But I had two and he got hurt.

[00:02:01] Yeah, all my people got hurt or whatever.

[00:02:04] Anyway, so that's why Fred Bird is hidden because the Cardinals had to go to their night.

[00:02:11] That's the end of Yachty.

[00:02:12] That's the end of Albert.

[00:02:15] Probably Wayne Wright.

[00:02:19] I know I'm going to miss Yachty though.

[00:02:20] I don't feel like we really have control of ourselves unless he's out there.

[00:02:23] He's like, he's like grandpa.

[00:02:25] He's got a but like a young grandpa.

[00:02:27] Like I got this and you're all going to behave.

[00:02:29] He kept looking in the dugout like, are we really leaving this picture in?

[00:02:33] I mean hey you just don't have it tonight.

[00:02:34] No big deal.

[00:02:35] Happens to everybody.

[00:02:36] I don't know how you give up that many runs in the ninth inning.

[00:02:41] And then the next day I said there's a difference between being disappointed and

[00:02:44] you're pissed.

[00:02:44] They're pissed at him for letting that fucking happen.

[00:02:48] And I don't think you can overcome that in 24 hours and clearly we couldn't.

[00:02:53] And we lost.

[00:02:55] Yeah.

[00:03:03] I'm mad.

[00:03:04] I'm very, very mad.

[00:03:06] Oli, whatever the coach's name is, Oli Marmalade, Marmalette.

[00:03:11] I don't know.

[00:03:12] The players all like him.

[00:03:14] So what they say, that's enough sports talk.

[00:03:16] I know some of you termites won't give a shit about sports.

[00:03:18] I understand.

[00:03:20] And some days I wish I didn't either because it's time consuming.

[00:03:24] And then I have to run backstage when I get off stage to see what the score

[00:03:27] is and the iPad's going and what a trip.

[00:03:31] So Buffalo, I have a review.

[00:03:35] Well, I did a little wing crawl.

[00:03:38] Yes.

[00:03:39] And I started at the anchor bar, which is where they were invented.

[00:03:43] Sadly, the chicken wing, the Buffalo wing, Buffalo, OK, was invented in 1964.

[00:03:50] That makes me only one year younger than Buffalo wings.

[00:03:56] Yeah, at least they came along in my lifetime.

[00:03:59] Right.

[00:03:59] What if you, you know, if you were born before then you didn't even know

[00:04:02] what a Buffalo wing was.

[00:04:05] So I started there and that's a really fun part.

[00:04:07] And then I met a termite who happened to be there upon my recommendation.

[00:04:11] And then I walked in and she was super excited.

[00:04:13] Colleen was her name.

[00:04:14] Yeah, and they were going to Niagara Falls.

[00:04:16] They took my other travel.

[00:04:17] I'm like, I'm just going to open a travel thing.

[00:04:19] It charged $1 a year.

[00:04:21] If I can get 20,000 people, it's 20 grand.

[00:04:25] But no, they went to Niagara Falls and then we kept in touch all weekend.

[00:04:28] They went into where I told them go eat and well, at least what I thought was cool.

[00:04:33] And then she ended up coming to the show in Wilkesbury.

[00:04:36] Yeah, she was a lot of fun and normal.

[00:04:38] I said, do you want me to go meet your husband?

[00:04:39] She's like, no, he's just like that quiet Lithuanian guy.

[00:04:42] He didn't carry the way.

[00:04:43] I'm like, excellent.

[00:04:44] That's one less picture I have to take.

[00:04:47] But then he came out.

[00:04:48] He was very, very nice.

[00:04:49] I guess I expected the way she talked about him to be like directly

[00:04:52] off a plane from Lithuania.

[00:04:53] Just on American.

[00:04:57] So I pub, I wing crawled it over to my new now favorite Gabriel's Gate in Buffalo.

[00:05:04] And I, oh my God, everything about that place and bizarrely enough,

[00:05:08] there were three other people.

[00:05:10] There was only like five people at the bar in the daytime.

[00:05:14] Three of them were from St. Louis.

[00:05:16] Totally bizarre.

[00:05:18] Yeah, because I was like those fucking Cardinals.

[00:05:20] I said something and some guy goes exactly right.

[00:05:23] Like it was a it was then I was just

[00:05:25] it was so fun.

[00:05:26] But the wings there, the Buffalo people have been right.

[00:05:31] I anchor bars are good and you should go for the history.

[00:05:34] But it is a fun bar and they have a blue light, which is great.

[00:05:39] But the real the best ones Gabriel's Gate.

[00:05:43] And it's in a really cool neighborhood in Buffalo.

[00:05:46] And then I met two people.

[00:05:49] Allentown, oh, you're right, because they named it Josh Allentown.

[00:05:51] Get it?

[00:05:53] Because we're living here in Allentown.

[00:05:58] So that was there's also a new Weston in Buffalo, I would recommend highly.

[00:06:04] I'll be going back there for the Buffalo Packer game.

[00:06:06] If there's any termites

[00:06:07] that would like to invite me to a tailgate available.

[00:06:10] Yep, I'm doing Dayton and Indy and then flying

[00:06:14] and meeting friends and then going to the game.

[00:06:17] Yep.

[00:06:18] So if anybody has a tailgate with any sort of alcoholic beverages

[00:06:21] or wings or anything, I'll be available to stop by.

[00:06:26] I would offer nothing in return because I can't fly with things.

[00:06:28] Otherwise, I would bring beer to you like a baby.

[00:06:32] Yeah, I'm like a stray cat speaking of straight stray cats.

[00:06:37] The rest of the weekend was great.

[00:06:39] Rochester, Ithaca, my friends, Mary and Tommy came

[00:06:42] Ithaca home of what Cornell University.

[00:06:46] And I see all the children walking around and I think,

[00:06:49] do you all have 100 grand?

[00:06:52] That's fucking amazing.

[00:06:54] I'm sure a lot of them get scholarships or whatever, but

[00:06:57] that's where I stayed at a Marriott and I posted a video.

[00:07:01] I am fancy at Marriott and not there.

[00:07:05] They didn't give a shit.

[00:07:06] I think it was a franchise problem.

[00:07:08] I the construction workers were so close to my room, they waved and smiled at me.

[00:07:12] They became like my friends. Oh, I have a video.

[00:07:14] I was shocked.

[00:07:15] They turned around.

[00:07:15] They were the crane was pulling them up in this thing.

[00:07:17] And I was like, hi, like literally a moron in my room.

[00:07:22] Hi. And then they were like, hi.

[00:07:26] So yeah, that was kind of a disaster.

[00:07:28] But other than that and then Wilkesbury is always fun.

[00:07:33] Never let's never let's a comedian down.

[00:07:35] Every comedian on the planet will speak highly of it.

[00:07:37] Yep. It's just a great old theater, great little town

[00:07:41] and what's bigger than a little town?

[00:07:44] I got pizza sent backstage from Kali and the termite

[00:07:47] that I met at the bar.

[00:07:48] And then she said, you have to have old Forge Peach and send it back.

[00:07:51] And Michael, the opening act, if you Michael Somerville,

[00:07:54] he he gets super excited about extra food backstage.

[00:08:00] And he was going back to his in-laws and I said, well, here

[00:08:04] because I can't eat all this pizza.

[00:08:05] I just wanted a piece that said, won't you be the head of the party?

[00:08:08] Walk back in with all this stuff.

[00:08:10] I did like it. Yeah.

[00:08:13] It's thick.

[00:08:14] It's square and it's just great.

[00:08:19] But it's thick.

[00:08:19] It's not like a emo.

[00:08:22] I don't know what Detroit style pizza is.

[00:08:25] What's that Chicago style, the trend style, New York style,

[00:08:30] way thicker than New York, Chicago.

[00:08:32] It's more like Chicago.

[00:08:33] Thick, no deep dish.

[00:08:35] That's what it kind of tastes like.

[00:08:38] Anyway, what am I drinking?

[00:08:41] The schnotz.

[00:08:42] Sommers and Churchill coffee stout.

[00:08:46] You know what made me laugh about this beer?

[00:08:48] They tell you an album pairing that you should be listening to when.

[00:08:52] Yes, it's from Geneva, New York.

[00:08:55] That was a Rochester deal.

[00:08:58] Yeah, there's I'm supposed to be listening to Kate Bush when I drink this.

[00:09:02] I think it's just hilarious.

[00:09:03] They advertise the yeah, the war horse brewery.

[00:09:07] Cool. I know my great friend,

[00:09:10] and that's one of my great friend, Greg Warren would make fun of the way I say war or quarter.

[00:09:15] A quarter, war, quarter, water,

[00:09:19] war horse.

[00:09:21] How do you say a 25 cent piece?

[00:09:24] Quarter, no, I say quarter, quarter.

[00:09:28] That's how you say those people say it.

[00:09:30] Give me a quarter.

[00:09:31] It's like water.

[00:09:32] You don't say water.

[00:09:34] Well, you do if you're Pennsylvania.

[00:09:36] Water.

[00:09:38] All right.

[00:09:40] So so many things backstage.

[00:09:41] I can't go through everything because it was too much, but I would like to thank

[00:09:44] Colleen, Joan, Lucille, Paulie, Marilyn and Susan made a giant basket,

[00:09:48] including these potato chips, which I've already eaten.

[00:09:51] They taste like lays.

[00:09:52] Yeah, what you said there for it says are made in hand of her

[00:09:56] PA, but they're really from Massachusetts.

[00:09:59] If you like lays, this should be your local go to

[00:10:03] what you said, support your local potato chip person.

[00:10:07] OK, don't need to be going off.

[00:10:10] Those are delicious, but they brought me.

[00:10:13] I had to tell Michael not to eat them, too.

[00:10:15] I go, Michael, because I always tell him he can have whatever he wants

[00:10:20] in the gift basket or whatever they to eat.

[00:10:22] And I said, don't don't eat those green things because they're mine.

[00:10:27] The it says cats on them.

[00:10:29] And he goes, oh, OK, he thought I meant food.

[00:10:31] They're really for cats.

[00:10:33] Not me.

[00:10:35] They're called greenies and oh, my God, I got home.

[00:10:40] It's crack.

[00:10:41] I mean, way better than treatables.

[00:10:43] They like them way better.

[00:10:44] Yeah, they it was there like snorting them.

[00:10:47] Yeah, I know I had to reel it back.

[00:10:49] Now I'm going to have to.

[00:10:50] They're probably pricey too.

[00:10:51] But whatever. Thank you for sending those.

[00:10:55] The cats are very feral.

[00:10:57] Baby cat and I spent four hours in the emergency room.

[00:11:02] She got nailed by porcupine and one of the quills.

[00:11:06] I got the quills out with tweezers, but apparently they carry a lot of bacteria

[00:11:11] and she had an abscess over.

[00:11:13] I was so sad because her eye just kept closing and closing and closing.

[00:11:16] And I went in there and I'm like, you know what?

[00:11:18] We got to fix this fast because I got to leave again.

[00:11:20] They gave her a shot of an antibiotic and overnight it was already better.

[00:11:25] And in four hours, I sat there.

[00:11:28] I saw every dog in the tri-state area.

[00:11:32] Um, but anyway, side story.

[00:11:35] I'll get to I'll get to the real show in a minute.

[00:11:36] If this is boring people, somebody brought back a whole grower full of horse head,

[00:11:40] but I don't know who and the card got moved.

[00:11:43] So thank you whoever did that.

[00:11:44] Oh, there goes the Loch Ness sponsor.

[00:11:46] Rich and Candy from Ithaca brought Cheetos, Street Corn, Mexican corn,

[00:11:49] which I ate some backstage and then gave the rest to Michael.

[00:11:52] He was very happy. Wilkesbury.

[00:11:54] I got more beer, so much beer inside her backstage.

[00:11:57] Yeah. And then somebody gave me golf balls with Buffalo on them.

[00:12:00] I love it. I know.

[00:12:02] I love it.

[00:12:03] I do like to root for the bills.

[00:12:04] And then here's the other thing we're going to taste.

[00:12:07] It's pumpkin cheesecake, tasty cake.

[00:12:10] Now, I don't like people shoving

[00:12:13] pumpkin in my beer.

[00:12:15] You guys stop with that, people.

[00:12:16] Oh, I like the one.

[00:12:20] My mom would like that.

[00:12:22] It's really sweet.

[00:12:24] I don't really like pumpkin pie.

[00:12:27] No, I like cheesecake.

[00:12:29] Once again, though, why do you got to leave him alone?

[00:12:33] It's like leave it, cheese it alone.

[00:12:34] Just leave it alone.

[00:12:36] I don't like change like that.

[00:12:39] I don't. I don't.

[00:12:41] Some quick shout outs and then we'll move on.

[00:12:44] Rich and Candy got your car, got your stuff.

[00:12:46] Thank you. Thank you.

[00:12:49] So many people brought so much stuff.

[00:12:51] Rob, he was Pennsylvania termite.

[00:12:55] He said, I see you, nurse.

[00:12:57] Yeah. And he likes listening to podcasts.

[00:12:58] That's nice to know you're having an effect somewhere.

[00:13:02] Kathy and Jenny Wilkes-Berry.

[00:13:04] Thanks for all the laughs.

[00:13:06] There's that saw me for the third time.

[00:13:08] I hope I was just as entertaining

[00:13:09] that their diamonds the first two.

[00:13:12] Oh, that's Colleen and George.

[00:13:14] Colleen and George became like my weekend friends.

[00:13:17] She was like, I didn't really think you'd be in here.

[00:13:19] I go, I said I was coming.

[00:13:21] Now, the odds of you being here at the same time

[00:13:22] are very slim to none, but congratulations, you won.

[00:13:25] So, all right, let's move on.

[00:13:29] What are we talking about this week?

[00:13:30] Well, some Queen news.

[00:13:34] Stevie, Queen Stevie,

[00:13:37] who I'm supposed to see soon in Nashville

[00:13:39] has canceled a few dates due to a non-COVID

[00:13:44] upper respiratory illness.

[00:13:46] Now, when I hear that in the over 70 crowd,

[00:13:49] it makes me nervous because then I think it's pneumonia.

[00:13:53] It doesn't mean it's pneumonia,

[00:13:54] but I have had my over 70 something friends.

[00:13:57] That's what happened.

[00:13:58] Let's hope that's not the case.

[00:14:00] She's supposed to go to Atlanta and then Queen Dolly.

[00:14:04] Why do you get a load of that?

[00:14:07] I know, seriously, I know she'd never do it,

[00:14:10] but this is what we need as a president.

[00:14:12] We need some feel good moments.

[00:14:14] We need giving.

[00:14:16] We need giving without judgment.

[00:14:19] That's what I think.

[00:14:21] Dolly Parton paid for band uniforms and instruments

[00:14:23] for kids at a majority black high school

[00:14:25] with zero publicity a writer has revealed.

[00:14:28] Michael Harriott tweeted that he noticed

[00:14:29] a quietly wonderful phenomenon

[00:14:31] when speaking to former high school choir or bandmates.

[00:14:33] He said, a surprising number of people

[00:14:35] who attended majority black high schools will say

[00:14:37] when asked about fundraising for uniforms and instruments,

[00:14:40] oh, Dolly Parton paid for ours.

[00:14:42] I know.

[00:14:46] The story was collaborated by many

[00:14:48] with one person replying to Harriott's tweet,

[00:14:50] 30 plus years ago I was in high school

[00:14:52] marching band in East Tennessee.

[00:14:54] One year we played Sevier County High School

[00:14:56] and dang that band was equipped.

[00:14:58] Uniforms, instruments, flags, everything.

[00:15:01] Mountain area, much poverty, paid for by Dolly Parton.

[00:15:04] That woman is a national treasure.

[00:15:07] Another continued explaining how Pigeon Ford,

[00:15:09] the home of Dolly Parton, a family amusement park

[00:15:11] owned by her legend was struggling to cope

[00:15:13] with the growing population until Parton stepped in.

[00:15:16] Around the same time period, Pigeon Ford was growing,

[00:15:18] middle school was bursting at the seams

[00:15:20] and two plus kids were sharing lockers.

[00:15:23] She called the BOE, I don't know what,

[00:15:25] oh, Board of Education,

[00:15:26] and told them to replace the lockers

[00:15:28] so we all had our own and send her the bill.

[00:15:32] She's amazing.

[00:15:34] Our philanthropy and charity work is one of the defining features

[00:15:36] of her celebrity status.

[00:15:37] She's provided cash incentives to prevent children

[00:15:40] in her local area from dropping out of school,

[00:15:42] set up a reading program to improve literacy rates

[00:15:45] and is a firm supporter of Black Lives Matter movement.

[00:15:48] You go Dolly, you go.

[00:15:50] She has the imagination library free books

[00:15:53] till kids up to the age of five.

[00:15:55] Over two million children have registered with the project.

[00:15:58] She's also paying the full tuition fees,

[00:16:00] including tax books and any additional fees

[00:16:02] to all employees of Dollywood.

[00:16:08] Just yeah, more people need to follow that example.

[00:16:11] Right?

[00:16:13] Right.

[00:16:15] That's all my Queen news.

[00:16:16] Stevie, I don't have the energy to read it,

[00:16:22] but if you go on Stevie's Instagram,

[00:16:24] she's very upset and she wants everybody to vote

[00:16:26] and she wrote us a poem.

[00:16:28] It's very long and it's thawed and I can't,

[00:16:33] it reminds me, I love that Stevie Nicks is weird.

[00:16:36] I'm just not weird.

[00:16:38] And one time I saw Billy Joel being interviewed

[00:16:41] like his songs, I was like Billy Joel's songs.

[00:16:43] I didn't like that uptown girl thing,

[00:16:45] but I liked all the other ones because they were literal

[00:16:48] and I'm a literal person.

[00:16:50] The words made sense to me.

[00:16:52] You Catholic girls thought I'm a true lesbian.

[00:16:54] Comes down to fate, my well being.

[00:16:56] Okay, he's like telling a story.

[00:16:57] He was there being interviewed and he said,

[00:17:00] sometimes I wish I was weirder.

[00:17:02] And I think that all the time when I watch,

[00:17:05] there's other comedians that are super weird

[00:17:06] and I think I wish I could be that weird,

[00:17:08] but I'm just not.

[00:17:09] And Billy Joel goes, I wanted to be weird,

[00:17:11] but like I'd hear a song from America

[00:17:13] and they'd say they'd been through the desert

[00:17:15] on a horse with no name

[00:17:16] and it's good to be out on the range.

[00:17:18] And I'd think, what the fuck?

[00:17:21] I'm like right, I don't get it either.

[00:17:24] So Stevie's thing is a little,

[00:17:27] you know, Stevie weird, which is reason I like her.

[00:17:33] But if you'd like to read that on your own,

[00:17:36] it's just too hard and long for the podcast.

[00:17:39] I don't say hard, you know, I don't know.

[00:17:43] That's all the Queen news.

[00:17:45] It's all I got.

[00:17:46] Update!

[00:17:51] A Russian oligarch's $500 million mega,

[00:17:54] $500 million mega yacht just mysteriously arrived in Hong Kong.

[00:18:01] Yeah, ever since Russia invaded Ukraine

[00:18:04] in the early years, authorities and Madigan's podcast

[00:18:07] have been keeping an eye on the mega yachts

[00:18:09] owned by Russian oligarchs and allies of Vladimir Putin.

[00:18:11] One such vessel just mysteriously turned up in Hong Kong.

[00:18:15] On Thursday, Bloomberg reported

[00:18:17] that the $5 million Nord, which is connected to who?

[00:18:21] We know Alexei Mostov.

[00:18:25] Had anchored in Hong Kong Harbor

[00:18:28] after spending the past several months

[00:18:29] in the port of Vladivostok.

[00:18:33] Oh, no, I'm kidding.

[00:18:35] Mordechov, the largest shareholder

[00:18:37] in the steel makers, Sevastol

[00:18:39] and the third richest man in Russia

[00:18:42] was sanctioned by the European Union United Kingdom

[00:18:44] in the United States after the war on Ukraine began.

[00:18:47] And he's been fighting those sanctions since May.

[00:18:50] The 465 foot vessel, how do you just show up?

[00:18:53] You have to call ahead.

[00:18:54] You can't just show up and hope there's a parking spot.

[00:18:57] This is not a lake bar where you're like,

[00:18:59] oh it's early, I'm sure nobody's there yet.

[00:19:01] Let's go and get a pizza.

[00:19:02] You have a 465 foot vessel.

[00:19:06] Hey, do you guys have any bumpers?

[00:19:07] Can you throw me a rope?

[00:19:10] I mean, you don't sneak up on that.

[00:19:14] It contains two helipads of cinema, 20 leisurely cabins.

[00:19:17] It left Vladivostok on September 27th.

[00:19:21] It was initially headed for the Vietnamese port of Da Nang.

[00:19:25] However, it soon changed its route to Hong Kong

[00:19:27] and has been anchored there since Wednesday night.

[00:19:30] Well then why aren't we going to get it?

[00:19:33] Why is no one seizing it?

[00:19:34] It's also changed its flag

[00:19:35] from the Cayman Islands to Russia.

[00:19:37] Even more reason to go get it.

[00:19:40] A spokesperson for the owner told the publication

[00:19:42] that he was currently in Moscow

[00:19:44] and declined to comment on the yacht's movements.

[00:19:48] They've seized yachts that add up to 2.25 billion,

[00:19:54] but not this one.

[00:19:55] They even have a,

[00:19:56] we even have a special task force called Klepto Capture

[00:20:00] to go after Russian billionaire's assets.

[00:20:02] Early this year, the unit helped seize the Amadea,

[00:20:05] a $325 million yacht supposedly owned

[00:20:08] by Gold Tycoon Suleyman Karamov.

[00:20:12] To evade capture, they keep moving them

[00:20:15] to the sanction-free waters of Russia and Turkey.

[00:20:18] But now that Da Nour has turned up in Hong Kong

[00:20:20] it's unclear what will happen.

[00:20:21] One thing's for certain though,

[00:20:23] despite its considerable size,

[00:20:25] the 465 footer is proving to be quite elusive.

[00:20:28] Okay well, Klepto Capture, start following it.

[00:20:32] Right.

[00:20:33] Go get, even if you were in a two man,

[00:20:37] you know.

[00:20:38] D?

[00:20:39] Yeah.

[00:20:40] Well once it got deep we need a bigger boat.

[00:20:42] But yeah, somebody needs to get out there and follow it.

[00:20:46] I don't get it.

[00:20:47] Is it Hong Kong on our side?

[00:20:53] Or is that more China so they're being nice to Vladdy?

[00:20:56] Cause they're trying to buddy up over there.

[00:21:01] All right.

[00:21:02] Biggest update, update, update.

[00:21:04] Anadolphe is loose.

[00:21:06] Oh, New York City people guard your wallets.

[00:21:12] Don't buy her bullshit.

[00:21:14] They let her out.

[00:21:16] She was posing for,

[00:21:18] okay here's why there's a lot of reporters

[00:21:22] that are alive today that suck.

[00:21:25] She has an East Village apartment.

[00:21:27] Someone needs to find out how she got that.

[00:21:31] I know comedians that work for a living

[00:21:33] and they can't get an apartment in the East Village.

[00:21:35] They don't have the money,

[00:21:36] they don't have, you have to go through all these things.

[00:21:38] Who is doing this?

[00:21:41] Who's behind this?

[00:21:42] I'm sure if you ask her she'll tell you.

[00:21:44] She'll tell you anything.

[00:21:45] I mean it might not be a truth.

[00:21:46] Well, whatever, just keep talking.

[00:21:49] My dad would just tell you,

[00:21:50] if you got a liar on the hook you haven't keep talking.

[00:21:53] Eventually something they say is true by accident.

[00:21:56] Socialite scammer Anakin had a busy first day

[00:22:00] under how she's under house arrest.

[00:22:01] Striking several poses in a photo shoot

[00:22:03] from the windows and rooftop of her New East Village pad.

[00:22:06] The fake German heiress whose long years gone

[00:22:09] and bilking New York's elite was the subject

[00:22:11] of the show inventing Anna on Netflix.

[00:22:12] We all know about that thing.

[00:22:14] I don't know.

[00:22:15] She leaned out her window.

[00:22:17] She's banned from social media.

[00:22:19] I didn't know you could do that.

[00:22:21] Really?

[00:22:22] Mm-hmm.

[00:22:23] A judge did it.

[00:22:25] Yeah, that's getting kind of weird.

[00:22:29] The 31 year old could be seen posing on the fire escape

[00:22:32] of her building where she's been ordered to remain

[00:22:34] under 24 hour house arrest with electronic monitor

[00:22:37] following her release from prison earlier this week.

[00:22:40] Sorak and well we know her background, I don't need to.

[00:22:43] As part of her release, she's also been banned

[00:22:45] from all forms of social media.

[00:22:46] She posted $10,000 bail which her rep said

[00:22:49] she made selling her artwork online.

[00:22:51] Okay, let's say that's true.

[00:22:53] I still don't, where's the down payment

[00:22:55] for your apartment first and last month's rent?

[00:22:59] The broker free, yeah.

[00:23:02] She made a beeline in Manhattan once she got out

[00:23:04] on Friday and she's been getting comfortable

[00:23:05] or new digs planning her future endeavor

[00:23:08] in addition to peacocking for photos.

[00:23:11] I've never heard that used as a verb.

[00:23:13] Peacocking?

[00:23:14] Popping her head out of the window like a peacock.

[00:23:17] She made phone calls, eight and nine prison food

[00:23:19] and is planning for her immigration hearing

[00:23:21] and her appeal as well as her future entrepreneurial ventures.

[00:23:26] We know what she did.

[00:23:27] She served four years in prison, blah, blah, blah,

[00:23:28] what she was convicted of, blah, blah, blah.

[00:23:34] She was picked up by customs and immigration

[00:23:36] on March 25th, 2021.

[00:23:38] She's been held at the Orange County Correctional

[00:23:41] Facility appealing both her criminal conviction

[00:23:43] and her deportation, the latter of which

[00:23:44] she's unlikely to win according to legal experts.

[00:23:47] I think the odds of her being able to remain

[00:23:49] in the country extremely low.

[00:23:51] She's on essentially a fast track

[00:23:53] for ultimate removal of the United States.

[00:23:54] Yes!

[00:23:55] You gotta go.

[00:23:57] You commit all these crimes, you gotta go.

[00:23:59] And then people are gonna go,

[00:24:00] well what about illegal immigrants that do all this?

[00:24:01] Well if we catch them, yeah.

[00:24:03] Then you have to go back too.

[00:24:05] I don't care if you served your prison time,

[00:24:07] we serve it for the crime

[00:24:09] and now you're here on an expired visa.

[00:24:12] You gotta go.

[00:24:15] She said she could be,

[00:24:16] the legal people said she could be saved from deportation

[00:24:19] if she wins an appeal of her original conviction.

[00:24:22] She's not gonna win that.

[00:24:23] It'd be one thing if people just gave you money

[00:24:25] but you lied to a bank.

[00:24:26] You crossed the line, you crossed the line.

[00:24:28] If the judge appeals, overthrows the conviction

[00:24:31] then she will not have any deportation consequences.

[00:24:34] She said she hopes to support herself in the future

[00:24:36] with her art and is considering other possible projects.

[00:24:39] She also had a solo show in New York City

[00:24:41] in May titled Allegedly,

[00:24:42] and it's selling pieces through social media.

[00:24:44] Some guys doing it for her.

[00:24:46] I've not figured out how my whole life in two days

[00:24:49] but I've managed to do something of my life

[00:24:52] while being in jail

[00:24:53] so I guess this would be a little easier.

[00:24:56] She's also considering launching a podcast

[00:24:58] and writing a book.

[00:24:58] Something with the criminal justice reform

[00:25:00] to highlight the struggles of other girls.

[00:25:03] Stop it.

[00:25:05] The German nation was highly critical

[00:25:06] of our immigration system from behind bars.

[00:25:09] Well, you shouldn't have been there then you wouldn't know.

[00:25:14] I didn't want it to go down the way I swore it did too.

[00:25:16] Letting them deport me would have been a sign of capitulation,

[00:25:19] confirmation, this perception of me as a shallow person

[00:25:22] who only cares about obscene wealth

[00:25:24] and that's not the reality.

[00:25:26] No, it's that.

[00:25:28] You also care about celebrity.

[00:25:29] Yeah, you do care about obscene wealth

[00:25:31] but you care more about celebrity.

[00:25:33] Yes, you do.

[00:25:35] I could have left but I chose not to

[00:25:37] because I'm trying to fix what I've done wrong.

[00:25:39] I have so much history in New York

[00:25:41] and I feel like if I were in Europe

[00:25:43] I'd be running from something

[00:25:45] but if jail does not prove people wrong then what will?

[00:25:49] Yeah.

[00:25:51] One of the residents in the building

[00:25:53] doesn't seem to be bothered by her.

[00:25:55] She wasn't hateful or murderous, she wasn't scary.

[00:25:57] I'm definitely opposed to white collar crime.

[00:25:59] They should be prosecuted as much as any other

[00:26:01] but there's something about her that is sympathetic.

[00:26:03] I don't think so.

[00:26:06] No, she is a grifter.

[00:26:08] They do not care.

[00:26:10] They don't have feelings, there's no empathy here.

[00:26:14] She stole some money, the 17 year old neighbor said.

[00:26:17] She stole some money, I don't see a problem.

[00:26:19] I thought it was cool, whatever.

[00:26:21] She said that.

[00:26:23] Hill said she would ask her how she'd do it.

[00:26:25] I'm curious.

[00:26:26] It's not cool to steal things.

[00:26:28] Oh, Jesus Christ.

[00:26:32] She's out and next week I'm gonna read you

[00:26:34] her first interview with the New York Times.

[00:26:41] I didn't have time for that today.

[00:26:44] I literally didn't have time for the Times,

[00:26:46] but I do have it printed out.

[00:26:48] I just didn't have it ready for this.

[00:26:49] I was gonna read you one more thing though.

[00:26:51] There's another detail.

[00:26:57] No, that's pretty much all of it.

[00:26:59] She's, we'll see.

[00:27:00] They don't say when her hearing is though.

[00:27:02] Like when do we decide?

[00:27:05] She faces deportation, she'll drag it out.

[00:27:09] She'll be sitting up in that window perched up there

[00:27:11] like a little peacock for a year.

[00:27:13] Wait until the kids cold though.

[00:27:15] And get in their house arrest.

[00:27:17] Mm-mm-mm update!

[00:27:21] January 6th Ryder who formed his own militia

[00:27:23] sat in step four.

[00:27:25] More than four years for assaulting an officer.

[00:27:28] I know people sometimes tire of this stuff,

[00:27:32] but hey, we have massive amounts of video

[00:27:35] with massive amounts of people doing horrible, shitty things,

[00:27:39] beating people with pipe.

[00:27:40] It's gonna take a minute.

[00:27:41] It's gonna take a hot minute.

[00:27:42] And when people always go,

[00:27:44] well nothing ever happens to people.

[00:27:45] Yeah it does.

[00:27:46] This is the good news.

[00:27:47] Should be a field-gold story.

[00:27:50] Cavill Ryder who created his own militia raised funds

[00:27:52] and worked to recruit others to join him

[00:27:55] on January 6th, 2021.

[00:27:57] Was sentenced to 52 months behind bars

[00:27:59] for assaulting a police officer during the attack.

[00:28:02] Before handing down his sentence,

[00:28:04] US District Judge Randolph Moss said Lucas Denney

[00:28:07] came looking for a fight on January 6th,

[00:28:11] citing messages where he planned for the event,

[00:28:14] discussed purchasing pepper spray

[00:28:17] and armor for his trip to DC.

[00:28:19] Armor!

[00:28:20] Armor.

[00:28:21] Denney, the self-declared leaders

[00:28:22] of the Patriot Boys of North Texas

[00:28:24] pleaded guilty to the initial assault.

[00:28:28] Their boy violating his right,

[00:28:30] but he failed to secure an indictment

[00:28:32] in the allotted time.

[00:28:33] Therefore, he did not get a fast trial during the attack.

[00:28:36] He attempted to pull barricades away

[00:28:37] from the line of police officers several times

[00:28:39] and later attempted to take a police officer's baton.

[00:28:42] He also swung a pole made of PVC at a police officer

[00:28:45] but hit a photojournalist and said,

[00:28:48] that poor person.

[00:28:49] I am just up here working.

[00:28:51] I gotta get pictures of you crazy people.

[00:28:53] Please don't hit me with a giant pole.

[00:28:55] Boom.

[00:28:56] Nice boss, too.

[00:29:00] The boss lambasted.

[00:29:02] Lambasted Denney for his multiple and sustained attacks

[00:29:05] on cops, including one where he punched

[00:29:06] an officer's face shield.

[00:29:08] The government also played video of his hearing

[00:29:13] of him entering the lower West Terrace tunnel.

[00:29:17] The attacks occurred, blah, blah, blah.

[00:29:21] Yeah, that's it.

[00:29:25] There's so much going on, but oh wow.

[00:29:27] So he was already, he was trying to send messages

[00:29:31] to Mike Pence saying he needed to throw out all the votes

[00:29:34] from the stage, from the states that supposedly

[00:29:38] there was fraud which they tried.

[00:29:41] There's so much more going on behind the scenes.

[00:29:42] That's why he's called for the support.

[00:29:44] Trump will stay president.

[00:29:45] That's why I've been super busy.

[00:29:47] I'm the president of the Patriot Boys in North Texas

[00:29:49] and I have over 200 guys.

[00:29:51] He purchased several items and prepared for the trip

[00:29:53] including a helmet for hazard as well as pepper spray

[00:29:55] that he deployed during his attack.

[00:29:58] He just, his only comment is,

[00:30:02] I had no intention to hurt anyone.

[00:30:04] Please end this nightmare.

[00:30:05] Okay, we will.

[00:30:09] Go to Nana, you go into prison.

[00:30:13] Four years of your life for one day.

[00:30:20] Nope.

[00:30:24] Holy shit they found it.

[00:30:27] I didn't really say that with a lot of energy.

[00:30:29] Well, cause this is a, they kind of knew it was there

[00:30:33] but they found it now.

[00:30:35] Holy shit.

[00:30:40] Notorious Art Thieves who stole a hundred million dollar

[00:30:42] painting in 1985 while one shattered up a security guard

[00:30:45] are revealed to be New York City teachers

[00:30:48] who are now dead.

[00:30:49] FBI discovers valuable work in their home

[00:30:53] and more than a million dollars in their bank account.

[00:30:55] No way.

[00:30:57] Boy, you think I don't remember 1985.

[00:31:00] I mean, I don't know.

[00:31:03] I don't know.

[00:31:05] I know we didn't have cell phones.

[00:31:06] I know there weren't security cameras.

[00:31:07] There were no ring doorbells.

[00:31:09] It just seems like it was so much more the Wild West.

[00:31:11] So we've talked about these people before

[00:31:15] but now they're dead and they went in their house.

[00:31:18] So an FBI investigation into a pair of retired teachers

[00:31:22] whose New Mexico home held a stolen

[00:31:25] 100 million dollar de Kooning painting

[00:31:28] revealed they had other valuable works in their house

[00:31:30] and enjoyed lavish trips around the world.

[00:31:32] But here's the thing, they didn't sell that painting.

[00:31:35] Right.

[00:31:36] So maybe they've stole a bunch of other shit and sold that

[00:31:39] but I don't understand why you'd steal

[00:31:42] a hundred million dollar painting

[00:31:44] if you don't have a way to get rid of it.

[00:31:48] Yeah, what?

[00:31:50] You gonna hide it when company comes?

[00:31:51] Oh shit.

[00:31:54] Oh my God, the neighbors are coming over.

[00:31:56] Hide the money.

[00:31:57] Come on.

[00:32:00] We just get off on looking at it.

[00:32:02] I don't get it.

[00:32:04] I mean, unless it was really a painting you really wanted

[00:32:08] I can't think of one that I want that badly to risk it.

[00:32:13] It has long been speculated that the late Rita

[00:32:16] and Jerry Alter were the duo who stole de Kooning's

[00:32:20] it's called Women Okra.

[00:32:23] Oshra O-C-H-R-E.

[00:32:28] Women Okra which would be you paddles

[00:32:31] women who eat okra.

[00:32:33] I hate it.

[00:32:35] They stole it from the University of Arizona

[00:32:39] Museum of Art in 1985.

[00:32:41] The theft saw a woman shed up a guard

[00:32:42] while her male accomplice cut out the painting

[00:32:45] and ran off with it

[00:32:46] but the thieves have never been identified.

[00:32:49] It wasn't until 2017 that the police were loaded

[00:32:52] to the paintings location by a New Mexican museum curator

[00:32:56] who bought the painting for $2,000 from Rita's estate

[00:33:00] who passed away that year following her husband's death

[00:33:03] in 2012.

[00:33:05] So some dude rocks up and pays $2,000

[00:33:10] for a hundred million dollar painting.

[00:33:12] Wow.

[00:33:13] A follow-up in investigations since found

[00:33:15] that the former New York City teachers

[00:33:17] were in possession of other artworks

[00:33:18] including two paintings the FBI said

[00:33:20] would sell for six figures.

[00:33:22] Arizona Republic reported.

[00:33:25] According to the FBI the Alters

[00:33:27] and FU told them that Rita had more than $1 million

[00:33:30] worth of bonds before her death

[00:33:31] despite her annual salary as a speech pathologist

[00:33:34] in Silver City, New Mexico at 16 grand.

[00:33:39] Where'd she get all that money?

[00:33:41] Christie Miller, special education teacher

[00:33:43] who shared an office with Rita

[00:33:45] told the Republic that they lived

[00:33:46] luxuriously in their new Southwest home

[00:33:48] when they moved to in 1977.

[00:33:52] Their single story ranch was equipped

[00:33:54] with a swimming pool,

[00:33:55] Boston Shakespeare and Ludwig van Beethoven

[00:33:57] and a blue pyramid covered in tiles.

[00:34:01] Neighbors noted that the couple would visit Hong Kong,

[00:34:04] Chile, Tasmania, Nepal, India, Japan and the Caribbean.

[00:34:09] The FBI found that the Alters

[00:34:11] they visited 145 countries.

[00:34:14] Wow.

[00:34:15] What else did they steal?

[00:34:16] Neighbors said their parent wealth kept them at a distance

[00:34:19] but when they were invited inside the home

[00:34:20] they often spotted the stolen painting

[00:34:23] and commented that it was ugly

[00:34:25] and Rita and Jerry laughed.

[00:34:27] The couple reportedly chalked their wealth up

[00:34:29] to various inheritances they'd received.

[00:34:31] Although Jerry suffered a major heart attack in 2002

[00:34:34] the couple continued traveling

[00:34:35] with their last trip to the Caribbean islands

[00:34:37] of Grenada, St. Vincent and Dominica.

[00:34:42] Then in 2012 at 81 Jerry suffered a stroke

[00:34:45] and passed away.

[00:34:47] Following Rita's passing their nephew Ron Roseman

[00:34:49] the executor of their estate donated

[00:34:51] the pair of expensive paintings

[00:34:53] and other sculptures to Silver City town

[00:34:55] and Country Gardens Clubs Thrift Shop Non-profit.

[00:35:01] Really wouldn't you have had those looked out

[00:35:02] before I just give it to a thrift shop?

[00:35:05] Probably, right?

[00:35:06] Including in the donations were originals

[00:35:09] from Joseph Henry Sharp and Victor Higgins

[00:35:11] whose paintings go for six figures.

[00:35:13] The non-profits was allowed to sell the artworks

[00:35:16] for $122,000 more than three times as much

[00:35:19] as the charity usually makes it here.

[00:35:21] Okay, well that's good but why don't we

[00:35:23] get some art people involved here?

[00:35:25] You know, you're just gonna go give it to Paul

[00:35:27] down at the thrift shop.

[00:35:28] That's ugly.

[00:35:29] Yeah, Tim Carpenter a senior advisor to FBI Art Crime Team.

[00:35:35] Now see why was I never told that was a job as a child?

[00:35:39] I would love to be in an art crime team.

[00:35:43] Well, someone else would fill my spot.

[00:35:46] You don't need to miss me.

[00:35:47] You never know I wouldn't hear.

[00:35:49] You can't miss something you never knew.

[00:35:52] There's probably science involved.

[00:35:53] Yeah, that's probably where I thought about.

[00:35:55] Maybe that's why baby Jesus didn't lead me to that.

[00:36:01] The FBI provided few details about the new items found

[00:36:04] in the latest couple's home noting that the case

[00:36:06] was over the stolen women okra was closed.

[00:36:10] Tim Carpenter said that the only

[00:36:14] the only the altars would know how they got their hands

[00:36:17] on the $100 million painting.

[00:36:18] They took it that secret to the grave with them

[00:36:20] unfortunately.

[00:36:21] No, not really.

[00:36:22] It's not here.

[00:36:23] I'll tell you how they did it.

[00:36:25] According to K.O.B.4, Jerry and Rita kept a day planner

[00:36:29] with meticulous notes about where they went,

[00:36:30] what they ate, what medications they had.

[00:36:32] The couple mysteriously left Thanksgiving 1985 blank.

[00:36:36] The same day the painting was stolen from the museum.

[00:36:38] A newly surfaced family photo reveals that Jerry and Rita

[00:36:41] who have two children were in Tucson

[00:36:43] a day before the heist.

[00:36:44] According to the report, a day after Thanksgiving 1985

[00:36:47] a security guard at the University of Arizona

[00:36:49] Museum of Art unlocked the front doors

[00:36:51] to let employees inside when a man and woman walked

[00:36:53] in behind the staffer.

[00:36:55] Because the museum was about to open for the day,

[00:36:57] the guard did not tell them to leave.

[00:36:59] The man walked upstairs to the second floor of the museum

[00:37:01] as the woman stayed and chatted with the security guard.

[00:37:04] Roughly 15 minutes later after entering the museum

[00:37:06] the man and woman left in a hurry.

[00:37:08] Since something was wrong, the guard

[00:37:10] walked up to the second floor to discover

[00:37:11] that the Koenig women okra painting had been

[00:37:15] cut from its frame.

[00:37:16] When he tried to chase after the man and woman

[00:37:18] they were speeding away in a red sports car,

[00:37:19] the museum did not have security cameras

[00:37:22] and the police found no fingerprints.

[00:37:24] They released a sketch of the couple

[00:37:25] who had a striking resemblance to Jerry and Rita

[00:37:28] and described what they had been wearing

[00:37:30] but no arrest were ever made.

[00:37:32] The theft went cold until 2017

[00:37:35] when David Van Auker accidentally stumbled upon

[00:37:38] the painting hidden behind the master bedroom

[00:37:40] of Jerry and Rita's ranch child in New Mexico.

[00:37:43] He told several news outlets he went to the couple's home

[00:37:45] to see what they had left behind

[00:37:46] after hearing about an estate sale.

[00:37:50] How bizarre.

[00:37:51] Yeah, he was walking around the house

[00:37:52] when he found a great cool mid-century painting

[00:37:55] and he bought it from Roseman for two grand.

[00:37:58] They were unaware of its history.

[00:38:00] How crazy are you to go, we're gonna risk prison

[00:38:06] to steal a painting.

[00:38:08] We're gonna hide from ourselves.

[00:38:12] Did you get it out in the day when company wasn't there?

[00:38:16] It's completely bizarre.

[00:38:18] Trafficking this stuff I get it.

[00:38:20] Why did the Isabella Garner Museum,

[00:38:23] those people sold all that shit.

[00:38:25] I mean as quickly as they stole it,

[00:38:27] they should have gotten rid of it, that was the plan.

[00:38:31] Holy shit, possibly.

[00:38:36] It's a possible finding.

[00:38:38] But I love this stuff because like

[00:38:42] in like Irish folklore and stuff,

[00:38:45] I just like folklore because I believe it

[00:38:48] because I don't believe those things are handed down

[00:38:51] generation after generation.

[00:38:52] If they're not true.

[00:38:53] I don't think there was some super creative person

[00:38:56] thousands of years ago that said,

[00:38:58] I'm gonna make up a story.

[00:39:00] And then nobody ever poked up, it just kept going.

[00:39:03] Well, here's one that might prove the folklore was right.

[00:39:08] A 6,000 year old skull in a cave in Taiwan

[00:39:10] possibly confirms legend of indigenous tribe.

[00:39:15] A team of researchers from members with Australia,

[00:39:18] Japan, Taiwan and Vietnam found a 6,000 year old skull

[00:39:21] and femur bones in a cave in a mountainous part of Taiwan

[00:39:24] that might prove the existence

[00:39:25] of an ancient indigenous tribe.

[00:39:28] In their paper published in the journal

[00:39:30] World Archaeology, the group describes the skull

[00:39:32] where it was found and what it might represent.

[00:39:34] In Taiwan there have been stories passed down

[00:39:36] through the generations about a tribe of short

[00:39:40] dark skinned people that once lived

[00:39:42] in the mountainous parts of the island.

[00:39:43] But until now there's been no physical evidence

[00:39:45] of them.

[00:39:46] In this new effort, researchers found a skull

[00:39:49] and leg bones in a cave that have been dated back

[00:39:51] to approximately 6,000 years ago,

[00:39:52] a time before the ancestors of people alive

[00:39:55] on the island arrived.

[00:39:57] So see?

[00:39:59] Studying the DNA, blah, blah, blah.

[00:40:01] They found it close to African samples

[00:40:03] from around the same time period

[00:40:04] but they also found that its size and shape resembles

[00:40:07] that of Negritos who lived in the part

[00:40:09] of what is now South Africa and the Philippines.

[00:40:11] Study of the bones left behind showed to be quite short

[00:40:15] with a small body size.

[00:40:16] Femur found femur bones

[00:40:19] near the skull were from the same person as the skull.

[00:40:22] A woman approximately stood, what?

[00:40:24] 1.3 meters tall.

[00:40:27] Yeah, sure, right.

[00:40:29] That's my height?

[00:40:30] Yeah, basically.

[00:40:31] I'm considered like a folklore item.

[00:40:33] What?

[00:40:34] 1.3 meters?

[00:40:35] Come on, how many feet is that?

[00:40:37] Dude, Google it.

[00:40:38] I'm here.

[00:40:39] I'm not f-

[00:40:41] Google it!

[00:40:42] 50 inches?

[00:40:44] 50 inches?

[00:40:45] I don't even know how tall I am.

[00:40:47] I'm 60 inches.

[00:40:49] You're 60 inches?

[00:40:50] Five foot.

[00:40:51] What's the tiniest of you?

[00:40:53] It's tiniest of me, but not by a lot.

[00:40:56] Well, no, I'm 5'1".

[00:40:59] That's 4.2.

[00:41:01] 4.2, wow.

[00:41:03] 4'2".

[00:41:05] 4.2 feet high?

[00:41:08] I'd like it if they were smaller.

[00:41:09] 4'3".

[00:41:10] 4'3"?

[00:41:12] Okay.

[00:41:12] My math is good.

[00:41:15] Researchers note that the dimension

[00:41:16] of small dark skin people was made in documents

[00:41:18] from the Quinn dynasty.

[00:41:19] But all of the 16 astronian groups living in Tawan today

[00:41:23] have stories that describe small dark skin people

[00:41:25] who once lived in the mountain.

[00:41:27] Mountain such tales differ, however, between groups.

[00:41:29] The researchers note that while some believing earlier

[00:41:31] people were ancestors of the on,

[00:41:32] others see them as former enemies.

[00:41:34] One group claimed to have killed off

[00:41:36] the last of the ancient people a thousand years ago.

[00:41:39] Hmm.

[00:41:41] 4'2".

[00:41:42] I mean for an adult.

[00:41:44] Yeah.

[00:41:45] But I think it'd be cooler if they were smaller.

[00:41:48] Yeah.

[00:41:49] Like...

[00:41:50] Tiny people.

[00:41:51] Yeah.

[00:41:52] But yeah, just running around out in the forest.

[00:41:55] I like the idea of it.

[00:41:57] They're called elves.

[00:41:59] They're not called elves.

[00:42:00] They're fairies.

[00:42:02] Here's a guy who's having a horrible day at work.

[00:42:04] Oh yeah.

[00:42:06] Speaking of art, since we're on the art subject.

[00:42:09] Excuse me, an art expert has been fired after he valued

[00:42:12] a Chinese vase at $1,950

[00:42:16] and it sold at auction for $8 million.

[00:42:20] Moupsy.

[00:42:22] Guys, so I fucked up one thing.

[00:42:25] Come on now, there's no reason to get this upset.

[00:42:29] Everybody has an off day.

[00:42:33] Oh my God.

[00:42:37] Maybe he was a fake expert.

[00:42:38] Maybe he was drunk.

[00:42:40] Maybe he was tired of looking at old vases

[00:42:43] when went like, I don't give a shit.

[00:42:45] Too grand.

[00:42:46] See if somebody will pay it.

[00:42:47] And art expert in France has been fired for valuing

[00:42:50] a Chinese vase 4,000 times less than its sale price.

[00:42:55] The vase belongs to a woman after it's sold

[00:42:57] and after clearing her mother's belongings.

[00:42:59] It's not clear what drove the pirate

[00:43:01] to pay so much for the vase or what makes it so special.

[00:43:04] Maybe it's not.

[00:43:05] Maybe this guy ain't wrong.

[00:43:06] Maybe there's just some lady who's got 8 million bucks

[00:43:08] and went, I like it.

[00:43:10] You know what?

[00:43:10] I'm not going to sit here and bid all day.

[00:43:12] 8 million.

[00:43:13] Sales over.

[00:43:14] Mm-hmm.

[00:43:16] Mm-hmm.

[00:43:17] Who owns it now, bitches?

[00:43:19] He's been fired from a prestigious auction house

[00:43:21] after valuing the thing.

[00:43:23] So the French news site, Le Puyriziang,

[00:43:26] said that the people made the journey from China to France

[00:43:28] to view the blue and white porcelain vase

[00:43:32] decorated with dragons and clouds,

[00:43:34] sought after motifs from collectors in East Asia.

[00:43:39] The buyer bid by phone was from China,

[00:43:43] the auction house said.

[00:43:45] The bidding for the vase at the Osanat auction house was fierce.

[00:43:50] And now someone has lost their job over it.

[00:43:52] Can you imagine if you're that guy?

[00:43:54] Go at home.

[00:43:55] Well, no, you're live.

[00:43:56] They're doing the auction.

[00:43:57] Okay, we're going to start out at $1,000.

[00:43:59] Do I hear 950, 950, 9900, 990?

[00:44:03] 4 million in the corner.

[00:44:05] And that guy probably just went,

[00:44:07] or lady, I don't know.

[00:44:08] It's in a...

[00:44:09] The expert made a mistake.

[00:44:10] One person alone against 300 interested Chinese buyers

[00:44:14] cannot be right.

[00:44:15] 300 Chinese people got on wanting this thing.

[00:44:19] Jean Pierre Osanat, who owns the auction house, said,

[00:44:24] he was working for us.

[00:44:25] He no longer works for us.

[00:44:26] It was, after all, a serious mistake.

[00:44:30] All right, well, maybe these Chinese people

[00:44:33] just got super worked up about a vase

[00:44:35] that's not worth more than two grand.

[00:44:37] It was sold after a woman from Brittany

[00:44:39] was cleaning her mother's house

[00:44:40] and decided to part ways with the vase,

[00:44:41] which once belonged to her grandmother.

[00:44:44] The listing describes the vase as a large

[00:44:46] Ting-Queen-Ping, porcelain...

[00:44:49] Hmm.

[00:44:50] Ting-Queen-Ping, porcelain and polychrome enamel vase

[00:44:53] in this style of the blue white

[00:44:55] with gobbler body and long cylindrical neck

[00:44:58] decorated with nine fierce dragons and clouds.

[00:45:03] I wish I could read these at the auction house

[00:45:06] if I could be the lady that does it.

[00:45:08] Coming up next, we have a large Ting-Queen-Ping,

[00:45:11] porcelain and polychrome enamel vase

[00:45:12] in the style of the blue and white

[00:45:14] gobbler body with a long cylindrical neck

[00:45:18] decorated with nine fierce dragons.

[00:45:23] The expert who analyzed the piece believed

[00:45:26] the vase was merely a 20th century decoration

[00:45:28] and decided it couldn't be worth more than

[00:45:30] $1,950.

[00:45:32] But he realized this might not be the case

[00:45:34] when their pre-auction show was swamped

[00:45:36] with interest-advice buyers who he told

[00:45:38] the Guardian came to expect the vase

[00:45:40] with lamps and magnifying glasses.

[00:45:42] Oh, shit.

[00:45:43] If you're that guy, you're like,

[00:45:44] hey, hey, hey, that's only worth two grand.

[00:45:47] Why are we being so picky here?

[00:45:48] Back off, jack off.

[00:45:49] What a trolling horse I got.

[00:45:51] Wow.

[00:45:52] He said there were so many registrations

[00:45:54] we had to stop them.

[00:45:56] At that point, we understood something was happening.

[00:45:58] The seller was greeted with a huge sock

[00:46:00] where the vase,

[00:46:02] the seller was greeted with a huge sock

[00:46:03] when the vase, which her family used to put flowers in.

[00:46:06] Come on.

[00:46:07] Come on.

[00:46:08] Sold for the astronomical price.

[00:46:09] It's as she'd won the Euro millions.

[00:46:12] Asana told the Parisian.

[00:46:14] It's not clear what drove the buyer to pay so much for the vase.

[00:46:17] Cedric Labidore, the director of the Auctions House

[00:46:19] Asian Arts Department told the Guardian,

[00:46:21] we don't know whether it, meaning the vase,

[00:46:24] is old or not or why it's sold for such a price.

[00:46:27] Perhaps we'll never know.

[00:46:28] The antique expert who has not been named

[00:46:29] is reported to stand by his individual valuation.

[00:46:32] He's still sitting there going, look man,

[00:46:36] how am I supposed to help it

[00:46:37] if 300 Chinese people get over excited

[00:46:40] about some bullshit?

[00:46:41] I am sitting here now telling you

[00:46:42] it's worth $1,950, not up anymore.

[00:46:46] He's gonna be sitting in a bar

[00:46:47] telling that story for a long, long time

[00:46:49] because he's now out of a job.

[00:46:53] That's a bad day at work.

[00:46:55] People say they have bad days at work.

[00:46:56] Do you really?

[00:46:57] That's a bad day at work.

[00:46:58] Here's a bad day at work.

[00:47:02] I don't know how you don't see this coming.

[00:47:05] This is my Midwest people.

[00:47:09] Did you guys know Viking river cruises

[00:47:11] have them up the Mississippi?

[00:47:13] Yeah.

[00:47:14] Now as being from a child who grew up

[00:47:17] with the Mississippi in St. Louis,

[00:47:19] there are some pretty parts of the Mississippi

[00:47:21] but there are many, many parts that are not pretty at all.

[00:47:24] There's just logs and bodies floating by.

[00:47:26] It's called the muddy Mississippi.

[00:47:29] Well because you could take it all the way

[00:47:31] from like New Orleans, you can go up through Memphis.

[00:47:33] The cities are fun.

[00:47:35] It's just, it's historical paddles.

[00:47:40] Not everything is about a good goddamn time

[00:47:42] of beauty and beer.

[00:47:43] This is about beer and education.

[00:47:45] You're gonna learn about Memphis,

[00:47:46] you're gonna learn, I don't know where it goes.

[00:47:49] All over St. Louis, it's gotta go by the arch

[00:47:52] and then you can get a lecture on that.

[00:47:54] It's for the older turtles.

[00:47:57] It's for the seniors I think.

[00:47:58] But here's what it makes you.

[00:48:00] Senior paddle wheel turtles.

[00:48:02] It's not a paddle wheel.

[00:48:06] We have those in downtown St. Louis,

[00:48:07] the paddle wheels, the Tomsomayor,

[00:48:09] the Huck Finn, come on.

[00:48:11] A Viking river cruise was headed up north,

[00:48:14] heading north up the Mississippi River.

[00:48:17] Can't finish the voyage because of low water levels.

[00:48:23] How do you not call ahead?

[00:48:25] Hi paddles, it's me.

[00:48:27] I'm down in Memphis.

[00:48:28] I got 150 people on this ship.

[00:48:30] Look out your window.

[00:48:31] How's the water looking St. Louis?

[00:48:33] Can I make it?

[00:48:34] There are barges going up and down this thing every day.

[00:48:37] Don't you guys have like CB radios,

[00:48:38] like truckers back in the day?

[00:48:41] How do you not fucking know this

[00:48:42] before you drive into it?

[00:48:45] Unusually low water levels along the Mississippi River

[00:48:47] have caused sections of the river to be closed,

[00:48:49] impacting all northbound and southbound shipping traffic.

[00:48:52] The closures have caused delays

[00:48:54] that will prevent Viking Mississippi

[00:48:56] from completing the sailing underway

[00:48:58] from reaching St. Paul, Minnesota

[00:49:00] for her next scheduled departure on October 15th.

[00:49:02] The cruise line said guests have been notified

[00:49:04] of these shows though they did not

[00:49:06] provide details on how many passengers have been affected.

[00:49:09] Now one got stuck in the Kentucky River not long ago

[00:49:12] and those people had to be like dingy'd off.

[00:49:15] I mean, it's a Mississippi.

[00:49:16] You could swim it except that they can get,

[00:49:18] yeah, they came out in a bass boat trolling motor.

[00:49:21] The guy's fishing while he picks you up.

[00:49:23] Just get in.

[00:49:26] The Viking Mississippi can hold up to 386 guests

[00:49:29] and was built in 2022 according to the company.

[00:49:31] 386?

[00:49:34] Yeah.

[00:49:35] Some people care about learning about America battles.

[00:49:39] Viking was advertising a 15 day trip,

[00:49:42] 15 days from St. Paul to New Orleans.

[00:49:47] Guess how much it cost?

[00:49:49] 15 days going down to Mississippi.

[00:49:53] Don't forget Davenport.

[00:49:55] Come on, there's a lot going on.

[00:49:58] 15 days.

[00:50:01] Yeah.

[00:50:03] Guess how much?

[00:50:05] $300.

[00:50:06] $300?

[00:50:08] No, you're well short.

[00:50:10] Would you like to guess again?

[00:50:12] No?

[00:50:13] I'm gonna tell you how much it costs if you wanna do this.

[00:50:18] I can't, I go drinking by the Mississippi

[00:50:20] and I'm gone in three hours.

[00:50:23] It starts, ticket start at 13,000 a person.

[00:50:34] That's how much?

[00:50:37] Thursday wasn't the first time

[00:50:38] the Viking ship ran into low water trouble on this voyage.

[00:50:42] Tom Trevato and his wife Trish,

[00:50:44] here you wanna know who goes?

[00:50:45] That's who.

[00:50:46] Tom Trevato and his wife Trish were among those on the cruise

[00:50:48] when the ship came to a halt

[00:50:50] in the middle of the Mississippi River.

[00:50:51] Trevato, who lives in Phoenix told CNN

[00:50:54] the ship was stopped on Monday morning

[00:50:55] after the barge hit the bottom of the river

[00:50:58] and blocked all water traffic through the area.

[00:51:02] We were caught in the middle of it.

[00:51:04] That's what Tom said.

[00:51:06] We were stopped for almost 24 hours with no movement.

[00:51:09] We said 300 passengers were on board

[00:51:11] and then he talked, all that he talked to

[00:51:13] had a good attitude about the situation.

[00:51:21] 13,000 a person, you could go to Europe

[00:51:24] and go down the Liffey River in Ireland

[00:51:27] or go somewhere.

[00:51:29] That's insane.

[00:51:30] I know.

[00:51:31] But I grew up in all those cities.

[00:51:33] I just don't know why.

[00:51:35] You could probably take a Southwest Air Flight

[00:51:36] like the same way.

[00:51:38] You could take a Southwest Air Flight

[00:51:39] absolutely the same way.

[00:51:41] There's no question about it.

[00:51:45] Here's a little something sad.

[00:51:49] This is a Guinness World Record.

[00:51:52] Pebbles, pebbles, get all of yourself battles.

[00:51:56] Pebbles, the world's oldest dog has died at age 22.

[00:52:01] Oh yeah, it's a good story.

[00:52:04] It's a feel good story.

[00:52:05] How long do you want a dog to live for Christ's sake?

[00:52:09] She's died.

[00:52:11] She was a toy fox terrorist.

[00:52:13] She died of natural causes at her home

[00:52:15] in Taylor, South Carolina on Monday.

[00:52:19] She was five months short of her 23rd birthday.

[00:52:21] She just recognizes the oldest living dog

[00:52:23] earlier this year in April.

[00:52:25] Guinness had initially named a 21-year-old chihuahua.

[00:52:27] We talked about that.

[00:52:29] Toby Keith, no.

[00:52:31] But when Pebbles owners saw the news,

[00:52:32] they realized their dog was actually older

[00:52:34] and they left into action like a dog chasing a squirrel.

[00:52:36] Bobby and Julie Gregory, Pebbles owners submitted

[00:52:39] their pet for the record.

[00:52:40] The Tiny Tox Fairy was born on March 28, 2000.

[00:52:43] She lived a long and happy life.

[00:52:45] The four-pound catarer loved listening to country music,

[00:52:48] trying new foods.

[00:52:49] Her wardrobe was studded with dozens of adorable outfits

[00:52:52] including festive pumpkin hat

[00:52:54] and a pink dress that were documented

[00:52:56] on the Instagram account.

[00:52:57] It was our honor to have had her as a pet

[00:53:00] and blessed in a family member.

[00:53:01] There was never anyone who met Pebbles

[00:53:03] who didn't love her.

[00:53:04] Should be deeply missed.

[00:53:06] South Carolina, pay attention,

[00:53:07] paddles, you're still stuck on the last story.

[00:53:09] You can't get past the fact that we tricked somebody

[00:53:12] from Phoenix into giving us 13 grand

[00:53:14] to go up and down the Mississippi.

[00:53:15] I could take you in a bass boat.

[00:53:17] 26 grand, it's 26 grand for him and his wife.

[00:53:20] Tom and Trish?

[00:53:21] Yeah.

[00:53:22] They'd had so much more fun if they went my boat.

[00:53:23] Exactly, yeah.

[00:53:25] Although I don't really have the overnight accommodations

[00:53:28] in my 17 foot bass boat.

[00:53:32] I wouldn't get stuck.

[00:53:33] As long as there's one foot of water,

[00:53:35] I can get through with the trolling motor.

[00:53:39] Paddles, the actual paddles,

[00:53:41] I don't mean you.

[00:53:42] I just can't believe it takes 15 days.

[00:53:46] Well, it does.

[00:53:48] 15 days to go from up to down.

[00:53:51] Rest in peace.

[00:53:53] All right, speaking of paddles.

[00:53:55] Paddles.

[00:53:56] You wanna talk about stupid shit?

[00:53:58] Yeah.

[00:53:59] 15 days.

[00:54:01] This is on you, paddles.

[00:54:02] Hello.

[00:54:05] A statue dedicated to Cheetos

[00:54:07] is unveiled in a small Canadian town.

[00:54:09] Why wouldn't they?

[00:54:11] It's wonderful.

[00:54:12] It's the craziest thing I've ever seen

[00:54:13] because the fingers are like a dark steel color

[00:54:17] and they put Cheeto dust on their fingers.

[00:54:19] That's awesome.

[00:54:20] A small town in Canada received a unique monument

[00:54:22] for sharing a name with the bright orange residue

[00:54:25] found on the fingers of some snack lovers.

[00:54:27] According to Free Delay,

[00:54:28] Cheeto is the official name for the orange stuff

[00:54:30] that gets all over your fingers while eating Cheetos.

[00:54:32] I did not know that.

[00:54:33] Yeah, it's a common thing.

[00:54:35] Shut up, it's not a common thing.

[00:54:37] Nobody knows that's called Cheeto.

[00:54:39] The company thought the tiny turn of Cheeto,

[00:54:41] it's spelled a little differently,

[00:54:42] but said it sounded so similar

[00:54:44] that it deserved a 17-foot statue

[00:54:46] to celebrate Cheeto and Canadians' cheesy Cheeto-dusted fingertips.

[00:54:51] This picture will be in the schnotes.

[00:54:53] Cheeto's proud to be the home of Cheeto hand statue.

[00:54:56] What else could the Cheetos brand honor?

[00:55:01] Where else could the Cheetos brand

[00:55:03] honor the iconic Cheeto if not here?

[00:55:05] Said James Gostel,

[00:55:07] president of the Cheeto Community Club,

[00:55:08] noted in the release while our residents

[00:55:11] will be the first to see the unique monument.

[00:55:13] We can't wait for the rest of Canada to see it.

[00:55:15] Statue with a giant gray hand

[00:55:17] holding a bright orange Cheeto.

[00:55:19] Cheeto with Cheeto on the fingertips

[00:55:20] will only be in the town,

[00:55:23] tiny town of 83 people until November.

[00:55:25] There's 83 people that live in this town.

[00:55:28] The statue will then tour other Canadian locations.

[00:55:30] It's in Alberta.

[00:55:31] It's in Alberta, yes.

[00:55:36] According to the dictionary,

[00:55:36] Cheeto, originally spelled Cheeto

[00:55:38] was one of the many words known as siglets,

[00:55:41] sniglets created by who?

[00:55:43] My friend, comedian Rich Hall in the 1980s.

[00:55:46] Remember, siglets?

[00:55:48] That was my friend Rich.

[00:55:49] Sniglets?

[00:55:50] Yeah, he created words.

[00:55:52] It was a thing.

[00:55:53] Don't ask me to explain.

[00:55:54] What does that mean, sniglets?

[00:55:56] I don't know.

[00:55:57] I don't remember.

[00:55:57] I just know he got popular selling that book.

[00:56:00] Yeah.

[00:56:03] Let's talk about the Go Zone in Chernobyl.

[00:56:06] Where nobody's supposed to be living

[00:56:08] but you should always go see that.

[00:56:09] Go watch that thing,

[00:56:11] the women of the Babushkas of Chernobyl,

[00:56:14] if you've never seen it.

[00:56:14] Holy shit, it's on YouTube.

[00:56:16] About the women that said,

[00:56:17] fuck it, we're walking back, that's our home.

[00:56:19] And they've been there ever since.

[00:56:20] There's not many of them left.

[00:56:22] It seems like maybe 20 or less.

[00:56:24] But the frogs in Chernobyl

[00:56:29] that used to be green,

[00:56:31] The real frogs?

[00:56:32] Real frogs.

[00:56:33] They're talking about how nature keeps evolving

[00:56:36] within this zone to stay alive.

[00:56:37] Mutating.

[00:56:39] Mutating, right.

[00:56:40] That's the word.

[00:56:42] Well, now the green frogs are all gone

[00:56:45] and all of the frogs are black.

[00:56:48] Cause I think somehow the skin color helps

[00:56:50] with not being affected by the radiation as much.

[00:56:55] Yeah.

[00:56:56] So maybe a diverse range of endangered species

[00:57:01] finds refuge there today,

[00:57:02] including bears, wolves and lynxes.

[00:57:04] Radiation can damage the genetic material

[00:57:06] of living organisms

[00:57:07] and generate undesirable mutations.

[00:57:09] However, one of the most interesting research topics

[00:57:12] is Chernobyl is trying to detect

[00:57:14] if some species are actually adapting

[00:57:16] to living with radiation.

[00:57:18] As with other pollutants, radiation

[00:57:19] could be a very strong selective factor

[00:57:21] favoring organisms with mechanic mechanisms

[00:57:24] that increase their survival in areas

[00:57:26] contaminated with the radioactive substances.

[00:57:28] Wow.

[00:57:29] Yeah.

[00:57:30] Now this gets very tactical,

[00:57:31] but melanin is responsible

[00:57:32] for the dark color of many organisms.

[00:57:34] While less is known about,

[00:57:36] while less is known that this class of pigments

[00:57:38] can also reduce the negative effects

[00:57:39] of ultraviolet radiation.

[00:57:42] And its protective role can extend

[00:57:44] to ionizing radiation too,

[00:57:46] as has been shown with the fungi.

[00:57:48] Melanin absorbs and dissipates

[00:57:50] part of the radiation energy.

[00:57:51] In addition, it can scavenge

[00:57:53] and neutralize ionized molecules inside a cell,

[00:57:56] such as reactive oxygen species.

[00:57:58] These actions make it less likely

[00:58:00] that individuals exposed to radiation

[00:58:02] will go on to suffer cell damage.

[00:58:04] So the frogs

[00:58:06] are mutating.

[00:58:08] To live within this environment.

[00:58:11] I think it's fantastically interesting.

[00:58:14] I would never go.

[00:58:15] There's the children are in this no zone.

[00:58:17] They're not supposed to be there.

[00:58:19] For YouTube videos,

[00:58:21] well I would go if I was allowed,

[00:58:23] but these kids are sneaking in there at night

[00:58:24] with their crazy cameras

[00:58:26] and they wanna get YouTube videos

[00:58:27] and no, fuck no, I wouldn't know.

[00:58:30] No?

[00:58:31] No, not with bears and wolves

[00:58:33] and lynxes and all that shit too.

[00:58:35] And you, I don't know.

[00:58:36] Well, forget the radiation.

[00:58:38] But I'm sure the children think I'll get in and get out.

[00:58:41] I'm not gonna, yeah.

[00:58:44] Would you do this the first time?

[00:58:46] There's no way I would.

[00:58:47] Super Sonic Jet would fly from New York City to London

[00:58:50] in just 80 minutes.

[00:58:52] I wouldn't take a trip on that for five years.

[00:58:56] No, it would take years.

[00:58:58] Yeah.

[00:58:59] It's a newly designed Super Sonic Jet.

[00:59:01] That's crazy.

[00:59:02] Dubbed the hyper sting,

[00:59:03] the conceptual plane would be nearly twice as large

[00:59:05] and travel twice as fast

[00:59:07] as the world's last commercial Super Sonic Jet,

[00:59:09] the Concorde, which we've talked about on this show,

[00:59:12] which was retired in 2003.

[00:59:14] The hyper sting at 328 feet long

[00:59:17] with a 168 foot wingspan would dart 170 passengers

[00:59:20] across the Atlantic

[00:59:21] with speeds beyond 2,486 miles an hour.

[00:59:25] Wow.

[00:59:26] All right.

[00:59:27] Uh-uh.

[00:59:28] Yeah, that's.

[00:59:29] You know what? I got time.

[00:59:30] I don't know how that's gonna work.

[00:59:31] I'll take the slow plane.

[00:59:32] Yeah.

[00:59:33] More than three times the speed of sound.

[00:59:35] Concorde was a brilliant piece of machinery

[00:59:37] and noble experience,

[00:59:38] but it put too many missions into the environment.

[00:59:40] Too much noise in our communities

[00:59:41] was too expensive to operate.

[00:59:43] The Spanish designer of the craft,

[00:59:45] Oscar Villanelle told the media outlet.

[00:59:49] Two ramjet engines powered by a small nuclear reactor

[00:59:52] would propel the jet to its incredible speeds.

[00:59:54] Oh no, no, no, no, no.

[00:59:56] It would additionally require the use

[00:59:57] of cold fusion nuclear reactor,

[00:59:59] which is still a theoretical concept.

[01:00:02] A new era of supersonic flight might be just around the corner,

[01:00:05] but there are challenges to overcoming.

[01:00:07] Yeah, I ain't getting on that.

[01:00:09] No, no, but you know, people will.

[01:00:12] You don't need to get in.

[01:00:15] I don't wanna be on stuff that says,

[01:00:16] plus I don't need to get there that quickly.

[01:00:19] Sometimes it's just the journey that's fun.

[01:00:22] How are you supposed to have lots of wine?

[01:00:23] What are you going that fast?

[01:00:25] Can we talk about the celebrities

[01:00:28] that are promoting crypto

[01:00:29] but not saying it's really an ad?

[01:00:31] Now Matt Damon's obviously looks like an ad.

[01:00:34] Right, I mean, fortune favors the brave.

[01:00:37] Oh stop it, my mem pajamas eating cheez-its

[01:00:40] and I hid bye on a phone.

[01:00:41] I'm not a brave person.

[01:00:42] I'm an idiot.

[01:00:43] I just bought dogecoin, dogecoin,

[01:00:46] whatever you wanna call it.

[01:00:47] But anyway, Kim Kardashian got fined a shit ton of money.

[01:00:50] They throw this crypto around

[01:00:52] like they're not really advertising it.

[01:00:55] She did put hashtag ad

[01:00:57] on the bottom of her Instagram post,

[01:00:59] but it was super tipped with tiny.

[01:01:03] She got a $1.6 million fine

[01:01:05] from the Securities Exchange Commission.

[01:01:07] It could just be the first to shot

[01:01:09] in a broader regulatory volley

[01:01:11] against crypto hawking celebrities.

[01:01:13] A-listers Matt Damon, Tom Brady and Larry David

[01:01:17] who appeared in ads for cryptocurrencies

[01:01:18] during this year's Super Bowl

[01:01:20] as well as stars like Mike Tyson

[01:01:21] and Reese Witherspoon

[01:01:23] who participated in so-called NFT drops.

[01:01:26] Tommy was into that too.

[01:01:27] Oh, Milani is into that.

[01:01:29] Milani, the NFT thing, my prediction,

[01:01:32] I'm no Jim Kramer, okay?

[01:01:35] But no, I don't see it going anywhere.

[01:01:40] They could be casualties of a crypto crackdown from the SEC.

[01:01:43] There's litigation,

[01:01:44] there's a litigation strategy

[01:01:45] of going after public figures.

[01:01:47] Now everyone in Hollywood will be on notice.

[01:01:49] Columbia Law Professor so-and-so said to be sure

[01:01:51] celebrities have been selling goods on QVC

[01:01:54] and infomercials for decades

[01:01:55] but before Instagram or cryptocurrencies even existed

[01:01:58] but lawyers cautioned that pushing financial products

[01:02:01] is far thomier.

[01:02:05] T-H-O-M-I-E-R.

[01:02:08] Then shilling skincare products or clothing.

[01:02:11] Celebrities aren't thinking through the fact

[01:02:13] that cryptocurrencies may be governed

[01:02:15] by securities and exchange laws.

[01:02:17] It's-

[01:02:18] Thomier means you're a stimulator.

[01:02:21] I'm a stimulating person in Brighton social galleries.

[01:02:23] You're an expression,

[01:02:24] it's you means you're an influencer.

[01:02:25] I'm an influencer, okay?

[01:02:27] Well, he could have just said that.

[01:02:28] There's no reason to be weird.

[01:02:31] There are far more wide reaching implications

[01:02:33] for celebrities and influencers

[01:02:34] in dealing with securities in the laws

[01:02:36] about regulating securities.

[01:02:37] Kardashians flagrant promotion

[01:02:39] for an individual crypto token

[01:02:42] was effectively low hanging for regulators

[01:02:44] but celebs who promoted sites like crypto.com and FTX

[01:02:48] where the customers can trade a swath of crypto

[01:02:51] could also be targets.

[01:02:54] But what does that do to Snoop Dogg?

[01:02:57] He loved Dogecoin.

[01:02:58] Yeah, but he's still got to...

[01:03:02] But here's the thing.

[01:03:05] If you're taking advice from Snoop Dogg,

[01:03:08] your financial advice, that's on you.

[01:03:11] I bought it because I think it's funny

[01:03:12] and I just wanted to get the coin.

[01:03:14] I wanted one dogecoin.

[01:03:18] There's a sixth grader,

[01:03:19] sorry, fifth grader in San Diego.

[01:03:22] He's the next everything in the art world.

[01:03:25] Andres Valencia.

[01:03:29] Some of his paintings have sold more than $25,000.

[01:03:31] He's only 10 years old.

[01:03:34] Now I went and looked at them.

[01:03:37] They're very Picasso-esque.

[01:03:43] I'm never gonna call a 10 year old a hack.

[01:03:48] But well they're great, they're good.

[01:03:52] They're colorful, they're interesting

[01:03:53] but they're geometrically disfigured things like Picasso's.

[01:03:58] I don't know.

[01:03:59] I don't know enough about art to be judging.

[01:04:01] That would just be my...

[01:04:03] No, I don't.

[01:04:06] He's generating a lot of heat in the art world

[01:04:09] so maybe he's the real deal.

[01:04:11] He seems like a very nice kid.

[01:04:12] His parents seem nice and normal

[01:04:13] from all the quotes I read.

[01:04:15] His surrealist style paintings were acquired

[01:04:17] by Deep Pacta collectors like Tommy Matola.

[01:04:20] Well, I don't care about Tommy.

[01:04:23] And Jessica Goldman-Snervick

[01:04:25] during Art Basel Miami Beach

[01:04:28] in June he had a solo exhibition

[01:04:30] at the Chase Contemporary Gallery in Soho

[01:04:32] where all 35 works were sold,

[01:04:35] fetching anywhere from 50 to 125,000.

[01:04:38] One of his paintings went for 160,000 quote with fees.

[01:04:41] Nobody cares about that.

[01:04:43] Another hit 230, you can't count a charity gig.

[01:04:46] Those people get drunk and do crazy things.

[01:04:50] If I am glad I can make people up my heart

[01:04:52] and they can hang it in their homes,

[01:04:55] he said on a recent chat at a gallery,

[01:04:58] it should be noted who has been called

[01:05:00] an art prodigy and little Picasso is only 10.

[01:05:05] Well, go look at them.

[01:05:09] They're cool.

[01:05:10] They're just very Picasso-y.

[01:05:17] Yeah, somebody wants them so keep painting.

[01:05:19] Making somebody happy, why not?

[01:05:25] You just gotta go look at them.

[01:05:27] Her husband, the mom, the husband is a lawyer

[01:05:31] and athlete manager for Cuban professional boxer

[01:05:33] Frank Sanchez.

[01:05:35] They haven't had a heavy hand in their son

[01:05:37] becoming an overnight sensation.

[01:05:39] Hmm, I don't know about that.

[01:05:43] I don't know the kids could put shit up on YouTube

[01:05:45] when they're 10 now and parents don't even know

[01:05:46] what they're doing in the basement.

[01:05:48] His art career began at four when his parents noticed

[01:05:50] he spent hours in their San Diego dining room

[01:05:52] sketching a painting by graffiti artist Rhett now,

[01:05:55] one of his father's former clients.

[01:05:57] I would bring paper and sit there

[01:05:59] and always try to copy it,

[01:06:00] but it took years to get it right,

[01:06:01] he said fidgeting in his seat.

[01:06:03] Sometimes older people just don't get it.

[01:06:06] Yes, I would be one of those ladies,

[01:06:08] but it could be the next prodigy.

[01:06:10] You know, you wanna get an early bed in?

[01:06:12] Go to one of his deals by painting.

[01:06:17] I don't know.

[01:06:18] Sometimes we hear about these people

[01:06:19] and then we don't hear about them again.

[01:06:21] Right.

[01:06:22] All right.

[01:06:23] It's pretty though.

[01:06:24] You know what, I'm gonna save

[01:06:27] my zero king thing for next week.

[01:06:30] Yeah, I am.

[01:06:33] All right, we'll do it.

[01:06:34] Yeah.

[01:06:36] I'm interested.

[01:06:37] Okay, this is very interesting.

[01:06:39] So on the heels of the Jeffrey Dahmer thing,

[01:06:43] which is awesome.

[01:06:45] I've also started watching,

[01:06:48] oh, what's the guy like so much?

[01:06:52] Colin Hanks, Tom Hanks' kid.

[01:06:55] It's called a friend of the family.

[01:06:56] It's on Paramount Plus and it's about this Idaho guy.

[01:06:59] And once again, we kind of trip into that weird Mormon zone

[01:07:02] where I don't really know what's going on

[01:07:04] and I'm like, what, what, what?

[01:07:06] Who's drinking milk at this age?

[01:07:08] I mean, except me in the morning.

[01:07:10] It's a weird, he abducts, I haven't watched all of it

[01:07:13] so I should wait until I talk about it.

[01:07:15] But so far I've watched two episodes and it's great.

[01:07:18] Really?

[01:07:19] Mm-hmm.

[01:07:20] But on the heels of the Jeffrey Dahmer deal,

[01:07:24] there are four astrological signs

[01:07:27] that have the most serial killers.

[01:07:31] Would you like to guess?

[01:07:35] You know what?

[01:07:37] A lot of people guess Scorpio and they're not on there.

[01:07:40] Shut up, really?

[01:07:42] Yep, I think maybe they haven't been caught.

[01:07:45] I think they're the smarter ones.

[01:07:47] They lie in my head so well.

[01:07:49] If you were one of these four star signs,

[01:07:51] you might be a serial killer in the making.

[01:07:53] Astrology believers around the world

[01:07:55] are loosing their minds over this list,

[01:07:56] which features the name of history's most feared

[01:07:58] and famous criminals next to their zodiac sign.

[01:08:01] Here we go, people with Pisces.

[01:08:07] That's you, paddles.

[01:08:07] I know.

[01:08:09] Do you feel like you could be a serial killer?

[01:08:10] No.

[01:08:11] No?

[01:08:12] Sagittarius?

[01:08:13] It's my mom.

[01:08:15] I could see her doing it.

[01:08:17] Gemini?

[01:08:19] Totally.

[01:08:20] Yep.

[01:08:21] Or Virgo, which surprises me

[01:08:23] because they're so anal about their stuff

[01:08:25] being straight and neat.

[01:08:26] I think that a murder scene would just be...

[01:08:28] I bet you theirs is the cleanest murder scene though.

[01:08:30] It's like Dexter.

[01:08:31] You wouldn't even know anything happening there.

[01:08:34] Somebody wrote in the comment thing

[01:08:38] that Libra's on here

[01:08:40] because we can't decide who to kill.

[01:08:44] No shit, I could think of probably five people

[01:08:47] that I put my buck up,

[01:08:48] but it would take me too long to decide.

[01:08:49] They would already die in natural causes

[01:08:51] by the time I made a decision.

[01:08:53] Right.

[01:08:54] Pisces is number one?

[01:08:56] Well, hold on.

[01:08:59] A couple articles have these ranked differently,

[01:09:02] but it's the same four over and over.

[01:09:07] For those of you who don't believe in astrology,

[01:09:09] how can you explain

[01:09:10] how there's only four signs included in this long list?

[01:09:13] That's why the next craziest is

[01:09:16] that there's one sign from each element.

[01:09:19] For fire signs, it's Sagittarius, air, it's Gemini,

[01:09:22] water, Pisces, and earth, it's Virgo.

[01:09:24] So the, God, everything's trying to kill us.

[01:09:28] Um.

[01:09:30] Virgo is theorized to be the deadliest

[01:09:34] out of the four, followed by Gemini.

[01:09:37] With killer Jeffrey Dahmer,

[01:09:39] the center of the popular Netflix Dahmer,

[01:09:41] they'd be being that sign.

[01:09:44] Dahmer was a Gemini.

[01:09:46] The third is Pisces, with feared criminals like the,

[01:09:49] oh, John Wayne Gacy was a Pisces,

[01:09:51] and the Night Sucker Richard Rumi-Rez.

[01:09:54] Oh.

[01:09:55] Sagittarius is the fourth most dangerous sign.

[01:09:58] They had Ted Bundy, Ed Kemper,

[01:10:02] oh, and one of the Columbine shooters, Dylan Klebelm.

[01:10:07] Virgo shows up the most.

[01:10:09] You know their crime scenes are immaculate though.

[01:10:13] Gemini is the next most frequent,

[01:10:15] not surprising anybody.

[01:10:18] Pisces, they let things build up and then they explode.

[01:10:21] They didn't do this.

[01:10:24] Sagittarius is most surprising, but they're impulsive and chaotic.

[01:10:27] If you mix that with mental health issues,

[01:10:29] I can see that happening.

[01:10:31] That's what they wrote. I didn't write that.

[01:10:33] The most shocking thing is the one,

[01:10:35] that the list one zodiac sign wasn't on it at all.

[01:10:38] The most surprising thing on that list

[01:10:40] is Scorpio is not on it.

[01:10:42] That's crazy.

[01:10:46] They do get their own way.

[01:10:48] Scorpios, because well, they come around people like Libra

[01:10:50] that can't make a decision, we're a perfect prey.

[01:10:53] But I don't care.

[01:10:55] I decide, where are we going to go eat?

[01:10:57] I don't give a shit. Someone else pick.

[01:10:59] I can't sit here.

[01:11:01] Here's some killers.

[01:11:03] Virgos, Ed Gein,

[01:11:05] the guy from a lot of Wisconsin.

[01:11:07] I'm going to look that one up.

[01:11:09] I think Arizona though has the most serial killers.

[01:11:11] I think I read that.

[01:11:13] Really?

[01:11:15] I think Alaska.

[01:11:17] There's not enough people in Alaska.

[01:11:19] Battles.

[01:11:21] Here's a lot of people, Virgos that I don't know.

[01:11:23] Terry Blair, Dean Carter, Andrew Kunanan.

[01:11:25] Oh, he's the guy who shot Versace.

[01:11:27] I wouldn't call him a serial killer.

[01:11:29] He did kill other people along the route.

[01:11:31] Right.

[01:11:33] Albert DeSalvo, Henry Lee Lucas, blah, blah, blah.

[01:11:35] Nobody will know this.

[01:11:37] Gemini's.

[01:11:39] Jeffrey Dahmer, son of Sam David Berkowitz,

[01:11:41] Mary Bell, Richard Chase, Danny Rowling,

[01:11:43] Catherine Bray, you won't know the rest.

[01:11:45] Pisces, John Wayne Gacy,

[01:11:47] Richard Ramirez, Donald Henry Gaskins.

[01:11:49] Dennis Radar, the BTK killer.

[01:11:51] I've always been fascinated with him.

[01:11:53] Eileen Warnos.

[01:11:55] Yeah, Pisces.

[01:11:57] Delphine DeLauri, who was an American horror story.

[01:11:59] Kathy Bates.

[01:12:01] Kathy Bates played her.

[01:12:03] Bad sign.

[01:12:05] Bad sign battles.

[01:12:07] Libra's sitting here real pretty.

[01:12:10] No decisions being made about anything on her.

[01:12:12] We can make a lot of fun though.

[01:12:14] Yeah, I've got a lot of fun.

[01:12:16] I'm going to go to the gym.

[01:12:18] Yeah, I guess if you don't let things build up. Jesus.

[01:12:22] Dorothy Puente.

[01:12:24] It was a Capricorn.

[01:12:30] I don't know what she did.

[01:12:32] Serial killers are more likely to be born in the cooler months

[01:12:34] between September and March than the heat of the summer.

[01:12:36] Mm-hmm.

[01:12:38] While the above signs are the League leaders

[01:12:40] in serial murder,

[01:12:42] the study revealed that Aquarius, Libra,

[01:12:44] and Virgo are more likely to be killed.

[01:12:46] And the other signs are the League leaders

[01:12:48] in serial murder.

[01:12:50] Aquarius, Libra, and Virgo are more high on the...

[01:12:52] are more dangerous

[01:12:54] with higher kill numbers than other signs.

[01:12:56] God!

[01:12:58] Well,

[01:13:00] I don't know what that means.

[01:13:02] Higher kill.

[01:13:04] I'm going to save that.

[01:13:06] So I read this giant...

[01:13:08] Yeah, just...

[01:13:10] Well, no, but why wouldn't that make you a serial killer?

[01:13:14] But there's saying, no, we don't...

[01:13:16] You mean if you have like one, like the school shoot, okay?

[01:13:18] Then you're not a serial killer?

[01:13:20] Yeah, I think likely.

[01:13:22] If you walk into the grocery store and shoot

[01:13:24] 20 people at the same time,

[01:13:26] I don't think you're a serial killer.

[01:13:28] All they put Dylan Klebold on that list.

[01:13:30] Right.

[01:13:32] And he shot everybody the same day.

[01:13:34] They're looking at it back.

[01:13:36] I'm fascinated about Lake Paul.

[01:13:38] I know.

[01:13:40] But then this thing is like 50 pages.

[01:13:42] I read this article.

[01:13:44] Really, if it runs out of water, nothing will happen

[01:13:46] because we have a plan for that.

[01:13:48] If it receives much further, one of the largest...

[01:13:50] Nations largest river could be at risk

[01:13:52] for no longer generating hydropower

[01:13:54] for the region.

[01:13:56] The lake was just under 24% full

[01:13:58] as of last week and had lost 16 feet

[01:14:00] in the last year.

[01:14:02] Its depth level is currently around 3,530 feet.

[01:14:04] Now,

[01:14:06] it generates power

[01:14:08] for the whole...

[01:14:10] for a shit ton of area.

[01:14:12] So what they're saying, because I had to read through this, boring,

[01:14:14] it generates power for about 5.8 million households

[01:14:16] in businesses in Arizona, Colorado,

[01:14:18] Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah,

[01:14:20] and Wyoming.

[01:14:22] But what they're saying is

[01:14:24] they can still produce power,

[01:14:26] but it's going to be for a lot less people.

[01:14:28] It's a problem.

[01:14:30] So what are we going to do?

[01:14:32] It's important to differentiate between Lake Paul running dry

[01:14:34] versus Lake Paul dropping below the elevation

[01:14:36] of 3,490 feet.

[01:14:38] Well, we're almost there.

[01:14:40] The lake has never reached this point before

[01:14:42] creating some substantial uncertainty about what would happen.

[01:14:44] We know that we'll lose hydropower,

[01:14:46] and we won't be able to make hydropower

[01:14:48] below 3,490 feet.

[01:14:50] Complicating matters, though,

[01:14:52] the ongoing talks between allocation between

[01:14:54] the seven states on the Colorado River

[01:14:56] and the source of the lakes' waters.

[01:14:58] This is where it gets really hard.

[01:15:00] Because then they're doing reclaimed water

[01:15:02] and all this stuff.

[01:15:04] So I tried to find out an answer.

[01:15:06] If the lakes level drop below

[01:15:08] 3,400 feet,

[01:15:10] they will have to run water

[01:15:12] through a series of river outlet tubes,

[01:15:14] the lowest delivery mechanism

[01:15:16] in the lake for the first time

[01:15:18] since the 1980s.

[01:15:20] And Bureau officials don't actually know

[01:15:22] if they can handle that much water.

[01:15:24] If the outlet tubes can't meet the reservoir's need,

[01:15:26] the flow of the water in the Grand Canyon

[01:15:28] itself could reduce to a trickle.

[01:15:30] The Grand Canyon Institute

[01:15:32] is advocating for draining Lake Paul

[01:15:34] both to replenish Lake Mead

[01:15:36] and to restore Glen Canyon,

[01:15:38] which was flooded to create Lake Paul.

[01:15:41] Yeah. I just hope somebody's in charge of that.

[01:15:43] Because there's going to be all kinds of people

[01:15:45] in Southern California, Arizona

[01:15:47] and all that that are going to be completely screwed up

[01:15:49] if somebody doesn't figure this shit out.

[01:15:51] Wow.

[01:15:53] So

[01:15:55] I wanted to say to my friend Judy

[01:15:57] and Judy Tineuda passed away

[01:15:59] and for all you, all the children

[01:16:01] yeah, I don't want to start crying or anything.

[01:16:03] So you should go on YouTube

[01:16:05] and watch Judy.

[01:16:07] We'll put it in the schnotes.

[01:16:09] I'll give a couple of my favorite clips and put it in there.

[01:16:11] Because she was so funny

[01:16:13] and I get so tired

[01:16:15] on the road of being asked,

[01:16:17] why does that like to be a female comedian?

[01:16:19] Blah blah blah. Judy never did any of that.

[01:16:21] She was just outrageous

[01:16:23] like I could never be that weird.

[01:16:25] But I loved to watch it.

[01:16:27] And off stage she was Chicago normal fun.

[01:16:29] She, yeah, sweet,

[01:16:31] smart,

[01:16:33] a good person

[01:16:35] like did the right thing.

[01:16:37] The last time I went to lunch with her, I knew she was sick.

[01:16:39] So I went out there on purpose

[01:16:41] to spend time with her

[01:16:43] and we, um, well

[01:16:45] she couldn't drink at that point but I drank her margarita for her.

[01:16:47] And we just talked about

[01:16:49] we just in a fun way

[01:16:51] talked about comedians we hate.

[01:16:53] It was a wonderful lunch.

[01:16:55] Um, and

[01:16:57] I liked her because

[01:16:59] she didn't do the women thing.

[01:17:01] You know, well I'm a woman and I want to shop

[01:17:03] and she just went, worship me pigs.

[01:17:05] She was so

[01:17:07] ridiculous for that time.

[01:17:09] And well even for now, I mean I went

[01:17:11] to our, I don't know.

[01:17:13] Yeah, um, but as a friend

[01:17:15] it's very sad. I did not want to see

[01:17:17] her go like that

[01:17:19] but so be it.

[01:17:21] Um,

[01:17:23] I wish her partner, her life partner V

[01:17:25] I wish him well

[01:17:27] and her family

[01:17:29] and all the YouTube

[01:17:31] children should go watch her clips.

[01:17:33] The accordion was so

[01:17:35] she has a Polish, she had a Polish mom.

[01:17:37] So she really did know how to play the accordion

[01:17:39] because people are like, does she really know how to play it?

[01:17:41] I'm like what Polish person in Chicago doesn't know

[01:17:43] how to play it. Yes she knows how to play it.

[01:17:45] Um, no she really did

[01:17:47] and a lot of people don't know this either

[01:17:49] but her artwork

[01:17:51] uh, like that was at her house one time

[01:17:53] I said who painted these

[01:17:55] and she was like, oh I did

[01:17:57] she went to the art institute in Chicago

[01:17:59] very talented, like as an actual artist

[01:18:01] and I don't think anybody

[01:18:03] I wonder if I could go online

[01:18:05] and see if she probably ever put anything up. I don't know

[01:18:07] it seemed like she just did it for fun

[01:18:09] um, but I'm super grateful

[01:18:11] I got to say goodbye

[01:18:13] and she let me and I said well I could come out in November

[01:18:15] and she said no come now

[01:18:17] so I think she knew

[01:18:19] this was going to be the

[01:18:21] the not so long away outcome

[01:18:23] um, but

[01:18:25] for fun, so I don't start crying

[01:18:27] go on YouTube

[01:18:29] you will put it in the notes

[01:18:31] youngsters and go

[01:18:33] people under 40 probably don't even know

[01:18:35] yeah, she's probably

[01:18:39] Louie's probably very happy to see her for sure

[01:18:41] um, he's been waiting on a playmate

[01:18:43] up there I'm sure and she just barged in

[01:18:45] and oh

[01:18:47] love me

[01:18:49] worship me pigs, I am your love goddess

[01:18:51] she had like seven characters

[01:18:53] I yeah, it's so

[01:18:55] ethereal and out there

[01:18:57] like my brother always goes

[01:18:59] and I know you'd like to be stranger and weird, but you're not

[01:19:01] you're just Joe and Sally lunchbox Midwest

[01:19:03] I'm like that sounds so boring Pat

[01:19:05] um

[01:19:07] yeah, she had a lot of characters

[01:19:09] and she stayed in them too

[01:19:11] I mean not offstage she wasn't crazy

[01:19:13] like one of the there's a couple comics

[01:19:15] where I'm like okay you can turn that off now

[01:19:17] and they just they fucking don't

[01:19:19] you're like ooh, oh you're actually crazy

[01:19:21] I see um no

[01:19:23] she was very normal

[01:19:25] um

[01:19:27] yeah, put them in the shots and she was a big

[01:19:29] big HIV

[01:19:31] person before that was cool

[01:19:33] like yeah an advocate to

[01:19:35] all of the um

[01:19:37] all of that cause back then and all that

[01:19:39] so there you go termites

[01:19:41] lost lost another

[01:19:43] I'm so sick of losing my friends in their

[01:19:45] 70s I mean I know that

[01:19:47] you're in your 70s but

[01:19:49] it just doesn't seem

[01:19:51] they don't seem 70 to me

[01:19:53] I did not know Judy was I didn't know she was

[01:19:55] 70 to I guess I would have said

[01:19:57] 65 I don't know she always

[01:19:59] and she was so nice to me one time when I

[01:20:01] was super scared as a young

[01:20:03] I went to the Chicago comedy festival and I

[01:20:05] hadn't seen anybody I knew yet and I only

[01:20:07] knew Judy was famous I didn't know her

[01:20:09] um

[01:20:11] and she said what's the matter you don't look

[01:20:13] so happy I said

[01:20:15] I don't know they don't have my room ready

[01:20:17] and I don't know where I'm supposed to go

[01:20:19] and then I just became friends with her ever

[01:20:21] since that she was so nice

[01:20:23] and helpful

[01:20:25] so that's it
