Speaker 1 You can't stop what's coming.

Speaker 1 Ain't all waiting on you.

Speaker 1 That's vanity.

Speaker 1 Good morning to you, wherever you are, because it is WALLING SUBWER! For October 30th, 2025, my name is Bernie Burns. Sitting right over there.

Speaker 1 Trick or treat? It's actually Burns. I had to ask everybody.

Speaker 2 Baby, I'll turn both.

Speaker 1 Easy over there. Easy.

Speaker 1 What was that?

Speaker 1 Raining in, Jenkins. What's going on?

Speaker 1 A lot going on.

Speaker 1 We have Halloween is tomorrow. I hope you have your Halloween costume already.
I hope it's great.

Speaker 1 You know, actually, somebody said, somebody gave you some life advice in the comments for yesterday's episode.

Speaker 2 To check where Etsy's stuff is being shipped from. They're not wrong.
They're not wrong. I do need to check that.
In my defense, I went to Etsy.co.uk to order the thing,

Speaker 2 which one would think would then prioritize things that are made in the UK and shipping from the UK.

Speaker 2 But I just, I got got.

Speaker 2 It's okay. It's fine.
It turned out okay this time. I gave myself enough weeks in advance that things just this once turned out okay.

Speaker 1 I think Etsy obfuscates that a little bit more than other platforms. Even eBay does a pretty good job of sorting by what's close to you.
Yes.

Speaker 2 And like, which, like, which site did you go to? We're going to assume that you want stuff that's local to that first.

Speaker 1 I fucked up. I got

Speaker 1 something on DVD. So it's like so much lower quality than everything else.
I got Harold.

Speaker 2 Oh, no.

Speaker 1 What'd you get? Harold and Maude. You ever seen Harold and Maude?

Speaker 2 Does that come on Blu-ray?

Speaker 1 It's a really good question. I don't know that it does.
I think there's like an out-of-print criterion collection Blu-ray of that, which just means I ain't buying that.

Speaker 1 It's going to be like 60 bucks or whatever.

Speaker 2 Like, like, we like Harold and Maude. Good movie, right? But let's be serious.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you ever seen that one? Don't think so.
We'll have to watch it at some point. I have a copy on DVD now.
I wonder why it was only two bucks. Now I know why.

Speaker 2 Well, then we can have next year's Couples Halloween costume ready to go.

Speaker 1 Isn't it insane what seemed like

Speaker 1 incredible fidelity when it first came out, like DVDs and 1080i resolution for televisions?

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah, but it's also, look, that has also has everything to do with the medium in which you're viewing it, right? Like on those like old TVs, the staticky ones, right?

Speaker 2 That would like, you would feel it when that thing turned on, right? It's just like shooting electromagnetic bolts at your,

Speaker 2 straight into your eyeballs.

Speaker 1 They say that like it's a bad thing, though.

Speaker 2 If you plug a DVD player into that, it looked incredible. It was like unlike anything you'd ever seen.
It's a little bit like too, when you see

Speaker 2 renderings of what 8-bit video games looked like on that TV, they don't have the jaggy little edge. They looked a lot smoother just because of the way the TV worked.

Speaker 2 So when you bring it into like a new, sharper, clearer, more digital medium, it might not look as good. But that's actually not the medium's fault necessarily.
It was made.

Speaker 2 for what you watched it on at the time.

Speaker 1 I would love to go back and watch like a VHS recording of friends on a cathode ray tube television.

Speaker 1 I would love to watch that.

Speaker 2 You have to make sure sure it's tuned to channel 13. And then, oh, God, did you ever have a TV with like the wood paneling and like a dial for channels? It just, it just had the dial.

Speaker 2 And I think our VHS was on channel three or something like that. Like there were only a couple set aside for stuff to plug in.
And the rest was, well, for me, it was static.

Speaker 1 Well, we had to,

Speaker 1 whenever we had an Atari.

Speaker 1 There was a we had a robbery one time where they took the box that it was like a little slider that went from TV to game and you had to attach it to where the vhf antenna this is the oldest conversation ever it was like two little forks and you would screw them into where the antenna was it was funny because i was doing that when i was like five like i could attach this thing with a screwdriver to the back of the tv i wouldn't let our kids go near anything with a goddamn screwdriver would you trust them you know i kind of would evie was uh doing something recently where you know she was uh picking away at something and dismantling something.

Speaker 1 I'm like, let's do this. She's kind of a gearhead, though.

Speaker 2 She is. She is.
But she's also,

Speaker 2 I recently realized that she also has an innate understanding of like of

Speaker 2 like Superman and other superheroes. You know, they like, they like put on the mask and they're, and now they're Superman instead of Clark Kent.

Speaker 2 Of identity? Yeah, of identity. Specifically because she was playing doctor the other day.
She's got a little doctor kit and she was like, you, well, she's a doctor slash dentist.

Speaker 2 And she was like checking my teeth and everything because she had her trip to the dentist recently.

Speaker 2 And so she's now fascinated with the fact that like all the teeth are gonna fall out uh and so she keeps checking everyone's teeth to make sure they're all still there but the second she puts on her doctor's stethoscope she says i'm not Evie I'm doctor all right yeah and she did the same thing because I tried her Halloween costume on and then she took the little mask off and goes I'm not butterfly I'm Evie

Speaker 2 shocking revelation like she's got a really unique take on identity and it's tied to objects that she puts on i have to admit though i'm also a little bit worried that we have a two-year-old who knows the word podcast.

Speaker 2 Yeah, she goes, you can't go podcast.

Speaker 1 Hey, did you hear that China basically made podcasts illegal? Do you hear that law?

Speaker 2 I did.

Speaker 1 Yeah, this is a new thing that it's not actually a law against podcasts, but when you hear it, it actually is.

Speaker 2 It's not, but it is. But it completely is.
Yeah, yeah. China is passing a law that will make it illegal for people to discuss

Speaker 2 specific topics that they consider important if they don't have an expert background in that topic. So if uh I think like education medicine

Speaker 2 things like that are all

Speaker 2 they're all covered under this new law. So if you don't have a medical background and you give medical advice, that's illegal.
Yeah. So yeah, podcasts.

Speaker 1 Well, historically looking back across different Chinese empires.

Speaker 2 Here's, so did they just decide to go ahead and outlaw TikTok themselves?

Speaker 1 They basically outlawed America. Let's be honest.

Speaker 2 They're like, well, since we have to sell TikTok off, we'll also make everything about TikTok illegal.

Speaker 1 Right. Everyone is an expert on everything.
Remember when COVID hit and everyone became a virologist? Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Everyone knew exactly how it worked.

Speaker 1 Everyone was an expert in contagious diseases overnight. Overnight.
Everybody was. An epidemiologist.

Speaker 2 We all learned a lot really fast.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Well, there's a lot going on in the news for climate science.
And if you're seeing an uptick in headlines about lots of different predictions about climate change and things like that.

Speaker 1 It's because there's about to be a major summit in Brazil, which leads to another story in a second.

Speaker 1 Next week is the COP 30 climate.

Speaker 1 And this is a big one because this is the 10-year anniversary of the Paris Accords, where we were all agreeing as a globe that we were going to stay below 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Speaker 2 And this is the one that we've now officially missed. We missed it last year.

Speaker 1 So last year, 2024 was the first year that we missed the target for the entire year. So the entirety of 2024, we were over 1.5 degrees Celsius raised average temperature globally, which is not good.

Speaker 2 Right. But because this summit is coming up, you will probably see a lot more people talking about their opinions on climate or what they think should be done.

Speaker 2 And so you'll see probably, as you said, an uptick in this sort of thing. Not that we can discuss it legally.

Speaker 1 Right, exactly. Not in China, at least.
We can't.

Speaker 2 For example, there was a headline we saw the other day that Bill Gates

Speaker 2 has changed or clarified his stance on

Speaker 1 the issue

Speaker 2 about

Speaker 2 climate change and where the focus should be. And he was saying that he doesn't think that we should be focusing as much right now on

Speaker 2 reducing carbon emissions. He thinks that...

Speaker 2 future technology will take care of carbon reclamation better than current technology can do, and that we should instead focus in the immediate term on reducing human suffering that's coming about as a result of climate change.

Speaker 2 Interesting timing too, since an enormous hurricane just flattened Jamaica.

Speaker 1 It was an interesting week to make that pivot. And it was, I was reading about it.

Speaker 1 It's like, Bill Gates is a guy, obviously, who's very forward-looking, and he's always been invested in climate change, of carbon reclamation. He's got this company in Montreal.
You can look it up.

Speaker 1 I think from memory, it's Deep Sky. Deep Sky.

Speaker 2 Where they basically find ways to pull carbon out of the atmosphere and there's even like a thing where they store carbon in bricks as well for long-term storage and you build a house out of it um yeah so according to wikipedia deep sky is a canadian project development company specializing in carbon removal facilities so you know he's he probably has some insight there in the way carbon reclamation technology is moving forward and kind of like computers you're like well if i draw this out it's going to be so much more powerful in two years right so i'll wait to build my PC then.

Speaker 1 He does seem to have some inside information to where this is heading.

Speaker 1 And also as a guy who's invested in it, I would expect him to say, be ringing the alarm bells more like, hey, we got to invest more in these technologies because he's invested in it.

Speaker 1 But since leaving Microsoft, he seems to have a more philanthropic mindset, you know, and he's definitely, definitely all in on malaria.

Speaker 1 And what I read from the quote on him was, it was essentially paraphrasing here that he would be

Speaker 1 find it acceptable to have a 0.1 degrees Celsius increase in global temperature if it meant wiping out malaria. Basically, it's like, what are we assigning the resources to?

Speaker 1 And what I was trying to figure out in reading it is what he's saying is, should we stop looking ahead to the future of climate change and just saying, we're in it now, right? We're not in.

Speaker 1 preventative maintenance anymore. Now we're actually dealing with the crisis.

Speaker 2 Yeah, we were. That wasn't clear to me.
We now have two things. One is going to be trying to walk that back, and that's going to require a lot of technological advancement.

Speaker 2 And the other is mitigating the suffering that the climate change, which is now official, is happening. We've missed the targets.

Speaker 2 That's it. How can we reduce the suffering as a result?

Speaker 1 And he did say that. He did say, like, a lot of people aren't aware of the unimaginable suffering that is taking place at this moment.
And everybody's kind of looking past that to the horizon.

Speaker 1 So it's, I was trying to unpack it across the board what he was exactly trying to say, but I think it's just he's doing a lot of interviews now because this summit is coming up, which is interesting because it's in Brazil.

Speaker 1 and they actually, the Brazilian authorities just made the statement that these events will be safe.

Speaker 1 Because did you read about these police raids where they killed like 120 people during these police raids?

Speaker 2 The last number I heard was 132. Is that right? So

Speaker 2 it might be that numbers are still fluctuating as counts are made or new deaths are being discovered. So it's going up.
But yeah,

Speaker 2 it was police raids specifically regarding narcotics, from what I understand. But it's interesting timing.
I assume that's like

Speaker 2 a lot of countries do this just before major events like World Cups and things like that, where they like, yeah, they like get people out of the immediate area. It's like the

Speaker 2 country

Speaker 2 population control version of like shoving all your stuff in your closet before guests come over. Yeah.
So that they don't see how you really live.

Speaker 1 I would spend a lot of time in Miami, Miami Beach when I was growing up. And in the early 90s, there was this time of, remember the Super Predator?

Speaker 1 Do you remember that distinction where there was a rise, a spike, a huge spike in violent crime and kind of senseless violent crime?

Speaker 1 The city of Miami ended up having this effort where they were putting up these little road signs, which were suns. They were these pretty little sons.

Speaker 1 And tourists were supposed to follow the suns because if you got off that path, you could get into a place where they would just get shot and killed.

Speaker 1 There was like a couple, I remember like German tourists who just randomly got killed by visiting America.

Speaker 2 Wow, look at the memory on Burns. This is from the Los Angeles Times: Signs of the Times for Florida visitors.
This article is from October 23rd, 1994.

Speaker 2 To help prevent travelers from getting lost or accidentally straying off main roads into high crime areas in Florida, about 400 signs with bright orange Sumbers logos are going up in the Miami area to mark highway lanes and exits deemed safe for tourists to travel.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Miami had basically tourist safe zones, essentially. Oh my God.
This is the era when carjacking was like the thing. Remember, carjacking? We all talked about carjacking.

Speaker 1 It was like carjacking was a new thing.

Speaker 2 Yeah, there were like we've gone through a lot of phases of hysteria.

Speaker 1 But it's a common thing, you know, when people are coming to visit your city or your country, there's often sweeps that take place, like Olympics and things like that as well.

Speaker 2 There are. And in fact, there was, there have just been some more arrests in the Louvre.
heist case. There have been five more arrests.
So more people were involved than we even realized.

Speaker 2 And I think that all those people now are like, thank God we're not in Brazil.

Speaker 1 Right, right, exactly. Or we're not in a drug boat off the coast of America either, to be honest with you.

Speaker 2 Yeah, that is what.

Speaker 1 I mean, that seems like every other day, that seems to be something you don't hear too much about is, is like, it doesn't seem to be raising a lot of ire. Let's just say that.

Speaker 1 It seems like every other day they're blowing up some drug boat that's off the coast of America or even off the coast of South America.

Speaker 2 Yeah. And we're not getting a lot of details about any of that, except that they blew up a boat.

Speaker 1 I mean, there's been some pushback about, you know, American due process and we're just basically killing criminals instead of apprehending them, you know, alleged criminals, really.

Speaker 1 And it ties into the sense of American justice. I got to say, though, too,

Speaker 1 I get kind of worried about saying stuff like this because there's always stuff with climate change when you talk about it.

Speaker 1 If somebody makes, somebody will latch onto one thing and say why it's not real, like it's not global warming, right? When it's right, because we had a really cold winter, sure.

Speaker 1 But I have to say this, because this was kind of interesting. The The BBC, in regards to this COP30 event,

Speaker 1 the BBC reported that the summit has been used as a justification to build a new highway cutting through the rainforest.

Speaker 1 Wait, hold on a second. The COP30s organizers and the state of Para have denied any direct links between the project and the conference.

Speaker 2 So they bulldozed rainforests to build a highway for cars.

Speaker 1 For the summit, like I said, I don't want to be too deep into it because then you just enable, you know, people who are climate tires.

Speaker 1 But it's the same kind of thing of like, you know, know, people flying to a summit on all these jets to discuss carbon emissions and then flying all home on their jets when we could very easily have that over teleconference.

Speaker 2 Yeah, and also have you considered plane pooling? I mean, I'm just saying.

Speaker 1 Right.

Speaker 2 You know,

Speaker 2 are there going to be special lanes in the sky for people who plane pool?

Speaker 1 What we do, we should just have all AI avatars meet together and then fly those AI avatars together on private jets is what we should do.

Speaker 2 Well, you know why we can't do the whole thing over teleconference, though, is like, who knows if like the cloud's going to go down in the middle of the conference that happened microsoft yesterday just uh their uh azure cloud went down so it was like it affected xbox it affected like all of their cloud services like onedrive all that stuff office 365 as well that's 365 so like that was all um that was all hit by a major microsoft outage yesterday i think they've pushed changes

Speaker 2 yeah it's like cloud outages keep happening i also feel like it's being kind of like why are these happening we're hearing things about like dns and people pushing changes changes why are these happening more frequently all the time is it kind of like maximum delay minimum disclosure where we're not actually being told why there's these are happening can i make a theory yeah my conspiracy theory someone's been doing a little bit too much like ai vibe coding on the back end i this was uh specifically uh the they wrote on their azure status page a configuration change to its azure infrastructure caused the outage of fixes being rolled out so they changed something on someone changed something in production okay okay but that's also, it's a very generic way to put that as well.

Speaker 1 It is. For instance, if you were attacked, if attacks are on the rise with these botnets, and as AI gets more sophisticated, these attacks are going to get more sophisticated as well.

Speaker 1 We know that because we deal with this kind of thing on our own website as well.

Speaker 1 You wouldn't really put that front and center because every time you do that, you're giving attention to it, right? Yes, that's true. Is it starting sounding a little conspiratorial over here?

Speaker 1 Maybe a little bit. Maybe a little bit.
Yeah. But

Speaker 1 regardless, we're seeing it more and more frequently, right? We are. Something's happening that we're seeing these major outages, I think, more frequently.

Speaker 1 We used to get these contracts for service-level agreements.

Speaker 1 99% uptime.

Speaker 2 Yeah, like if you fall below this, you get this back.

Speaker 1 Yeah, exactly. And I don't think like, I can't imagine like a 99.9% uptime contract is going to be put on any table these days.
I just can't imagine that.

Speaker 2 Because who could guarantee it? You don't know if you're going to get hit by some major DNS barrage.

Speaker 1 And Wednesday night is the night that Finn and I sit down together. We have a little co-op play some Sea of Thieves together.

Speaker 2 And you didn't get to play.

Speaker 1 We couldn't play. We got the strawberry beard error last night.

Speaker 2 You know what? That's its own kind of obfuscation.

Speaker 2 The beards in Sea of Thieves, like obviously you know what they are eventually. You figure it out, but they're like, you got the lazy beard.
And I'm like, okay, well, that one's fairly clear.

Speaker 2 That's a really like timed out. But strawberry beard, what error is that?

Speaker 1 It doesn't matter what you name the error when you launch a game, especially an online game and people get that error all the time. You can name it whatever you want.
It still becomes a meme.

Speaker 1 What was the Diablo one that everyone talked about forever? Like Error 73 or whatever?

Speaker 2 Yeah, that was like, uh, there's, oh, God, what was that?

Speaker 1 Yeah, it doesn't matter. It's whatever the name was.
And people just latched on to it. And it was insane because they were getting it all.

Speaker 2 Error 37.

Speaker 1 Error 37. I headed backwards.

Speaker 1 Error 37.

Speaker 1 Weird that I can remember that all these years. I didn't even fucking play Diablo at launch.

Speaker 2 No, but it's like if you were around at that time, you heard about nothing but error 37 for at least a couple of days.

Speaker 1 Ashley, can I talk to my gamers out there? The gamers out there and their gaming lifestyle with all their gaming that they're doing.

Speaker 2 With their strawberry beards? Sure.

Speaker 1 I have a problem. I wonder if it's unique to me.
When I play games like Diablo and Hades as well, which is really kind of like a shooter version of Diablo, right?

Speaker 1 I mean, it's like a faster-paced version of it.

Speaker 1 Does anyone else get like cursor blindness? Like, I just. Do you lose it sometimes? I just, it's like, I lose it.
I lose the cursor and I cannot find it to save my life.

Speaker 1 Like, a lot of times because you're clicking, it's one of these, if you're not familiar with these games, you have a character in the center of the screen and you don't use the keyboard at all.

Speaker 1 You just click around with the mouse. A little bit on Hades, you use the keyboard.

Speaker 2 Right. And it's like you, you click and then your character goes that place.
Or you click on someone and they attack that guy.

Speaker 1 Right. And so then it's really the relative

Speaker 1 position of the cursor.

Speaker 1 to the center of the screen where your character is right relative position and then in my head it gets map but then I find out I'm like off from where I thought I was and when i think i'm going left i'm still going right because i haven't crossed over the center and then i'm like where the fuck is the cursor and then i just literally can't find it maybe there's uh some settings for you like a super cursor i tried to find it i tried to find it i couldn't you know you turned on that like high contrast windows mode dude did you ever meet somebody like in the 90s who had high contrast oh i did do you remember cursor Trails?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I used to be. Like they would turn on the trail and get ghost image.

Speaker 1 And you would see someone with that on. You're like, how do you live like this?

Speaker 2 Who are you? Who hurt you?

Speaker 1 Is that even an option?

Speaker 2 Did a super predator get you?

Speaker 1 And this is not like me getting older. It is me getting older.
I've always had this. Like, I've always had that in Diablo.
Like, the cursor just gets, I don't know how else to put it. I get offset.

Speaker 1 Like, I think it's closer to the center than it is. And I'm actually like a third of the screen to the right.
I'm like centering on that. And then suddenly I'm completely off.

Speaker 2 No, but while we're talking about video games, I need some emotional support here. Do you ever have a thing where

Speaker 2 you're playing a video game and you realize that you're the problem and you can't help it. Like, it's so hard to like step back from the edge because you know that you're the problem right now.

Speaker 1 Let me try to figure out what you're talking about. Okay, go ahead.
Are you talking about narratively? You as a character, you're the problem? Nope.

Speaker 2 I'm talking about me as a player. I'm the problem.

Speaker 1 Oh, you focused on one part of the game and you're going all in on that and you're mad at the game because you're focused on that part of the game.

Speaker 2 Yeah, basically. Oh, is that it?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Right now,

Speaker 2 I started playing Coral Island, which is a lot like a Stardew Valley type. It's the farming simulator.
You've got a town. There's people who live in it.
You can make friends. You can go fishing.

Speaker 2 You can go into the mines. You can go catch bugs.
You can go diving in the deep sea and meet the merr people.

Speaker 1 Why do video game developers think those are the only human activities?

Speaker 1 Mining, farming, and collecting bugs and fishing.

Speaker 2 It's a genre thing.

Speaker 1 That's all that we do.

Speaker 2 But the thing is, it's one of those games that's like you decide what you want to do, right? Like no one's going to make you do anything. If you want to focus on your crops, you do that.

Speaker 2 You You want to catch bugs all day? Good for you. You, all you want to do is go under the sea and swipe its seaweed and clean it up and get rid of the trash.
Great.

Speaker 1 But just think though, if you met someone in real life and you say, you look exhausted, why are you so tired? It's like, oh man, this weekend, I was like, I was in my backyard in my mind all day.

Speaker 1 And I'm just like, are you fucking insane?

Speaker 2 I was out all day.

Speaker 2 Like, in like, why'd you go out in the horrible weather? That's the only weather I can catch the catfish in.

Speaker 1 But that's the problem. I only caught 800 fish on Sunday.

Speaker 2 These games all have these like sort of completion points, right? Like you go and you come get like a bundle or something and you like, you offer the temple these five different fish.

Speaker 2 And then you get like a little reward for it. And it gets, it, you know, helps your town be better and stuff.
And

Speaker 2 a lot of the fish or the bugs or whatever are only available during certain seasons, under certain weather conditions, during certain types of the day and i find myself in this cozy relaxing farming sim where i can decide whatever i want to do desperately looking up what time the catfish is going to be available because i need to complete the bundle right yeah you got to got to get it done and then and then i get to the point where i'm like well it's it's winter 28 i'm not going to be able to get this until next winter now so it's all fucked yep i've had that there were achievements in halo sometimes i think it was like a one of the seventh on seventh and if you didn't get it on the seventh of the month, you had to wait to the following month.

Speaker 1 And it's like, that's a long time in video game.

Speaker 2 It's a long time in the video game world. So

Speaker 2 I'm stressing myself out in this relaxing, cozy game because I'm like,

Speaker 2 I'm not advancing fast enough. I'm not completing the bundles fast enough.
Like, yeah, it's not improving.

Speaker 1 Well, let me bring you back to Happy World. We're going trick-or-treating tomorrow, actually.

Speaker 1 Which you love. It's always great.
And we're going to have nice weather here. We're looking at like mid-teens.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's been really, really cold. And then tomorrow, for no reason whatsoever, it's going to warm up, which is great.

Speaker 1 I'm still

Speaker 2 putting the kids in thermals, but hopefully we don't have to like bundle them in coats and then just like pull the coat off and go, okay, go up to the door now.

Speaker 2 And then hold the coat until they come back from the door and bundle them back up till we get to the next door.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we were getting in some global warming right before the COP 30. COP's a weird name for a climate change.

Speaker 2 I'm sure it stands for something like climate on

Speaker 2 path to destruction.

Speaker 1 But yeah, so

Speaker 1 we're going to be doing trick-or-treating tomorrow here in Scotland. So the kids, as you learned last year, they have to learn a joke and they have to tell a joke.

Speaker 1 And they go to the door.

Speaker 2 Finn's also now old enough that he likes to make up his own jokes. Oh, no.

Speaker 2 And it's hard to explain to him.

Speaker 2 We're like, that's not, that doesn't quite meet the requirements for the joke, but tell you what, kid, you do your thing. His, you know what his joke this year is?

Speaker 2 What do you call a marble when it goes far away?

Speaker 1 I'm going to guess it's a farble. It's a farble.

Speaker 2 And that's, that's the joke he's going to be telling telling people that are like, oh, great job, kid.

Speaker 1 That did great in workshopping.

Speaker 1 That joke is killed. You should see the ones that didn't make it, actually.

Speaker 1 I like it. I like he's trying out the new material.

Speaker 2 I was like, yeah, okay, sure.

Speaker 1 I would be remiss if I didn't mention that the bullshit Toronto Blue Jays are now one game ahead in the World Series.

Speaker 2 I thought you were going to be happy either way about this. Either your team wins or the Blue Jays win.
Either way, you're happy.

Speaker 1 Happy until it happened, those fuckers.

Speaker 1 What I'm probably most

Speaker 1 disappointed by, actually, is the fact that after they won game four

Speaker 1 to tie it up 2-2, that means they broke the Jonas Brothers curse. Because that would have been fantastic to have a Jonas Brothers curse.
But now that's officially broken.

Speaker 1 You can't blame the Jonas Brothers at this point in time.

Speaker 2 Now it's all in blue. So now the Blue Jays are now a game ahead.
They're one game away from winning. Exactly.

Speaker 1 So at this point, now, if you've just been kind of paying attention via osmosis to the World Series, now you can start watching because now at any point in time, they could crown a World Series champion.

Speaker 1 And it could be your bullshit Toronto Blue Jays, or it could be the lovely underdog Los Angeles Doctor.

Speaker 2 Well, I want to say a big thank you to our World Series champions today, Eric Torres, and Tyler A.

Speaker 2 Thank you both so much for sponsoring this episode of our show at patreon.com/slash morning somewhere. All right.

Speaker 1 Oh, thank you. That does it for us today.
October 30th, 2025. We will be back to talk to you tomorrow.
Hope you will be here as well. Bye, everybody.
