The Las Vegas Taxi Conspiracy: A "Glitch in the Matrix" Story 🚕🎰 | Sunburnt Ep. 49

**Chip** (00:00:00:00 - 00:00:09:01): Hot ash and lava is raining from the sky. No sirens blaring everywhere. Well, cars are just crashed and left abandoned on every road. **Thomas** (00:00:09:02 - 00:00:11:00): This is unbelievable. **Chip** (00:00:11:02 - 00:00:23:15): People are just screaming, crying, running in every direction. Wow. Disfigured mutant half people are roaming the streets, tearing people to shreds. **Thomas** (00:00:23:16 - 00:00:24:18): My goodness. **Chip** (00:00:24:19 - 00:00:40:22): Suddenly the sky turns purple. A shade of purple. You have. You've never seen before. Wow. The sun gets gigantic and then just suddenly, literally implodes. And that is my prediction for the Super Bowl. **Thomas** (00:00:43:23 - 00:00:51:23): And you bet on that five bucks, man. The odds have to be huge on that bat, dude. **Chip** (00:00:52:01 - 00:01:00:18): Yeah. If we have a zombie apocalypse, I am going to be a very rich man. Thank you. Thank you. Draft Kings. **Thomas** (00:01:04:04 - 00:01:25:10): Shout out DraftKings. What up everybody? This is the sunburnt podcast where we talk about comedy and tropical travel. Chips made a very, very big wager on the big game this weekend. But almost as big a wager as being the co-host of this podcast. To my right. You know, I'm from Netflix, from his amazing special Move Closer. It's Philadelphia's chili as birdie Chip Chantry. **Chip** (00:01:29:18 - 00:01:40:18): And over here to my left is Andy, award winning producer and writer. He puts the tick in. Here comes the tickle monster, Mister. Mr. Thomas O'Brien. **Thomas** (00:01:40:18 - 00:01:46:23): A lot of people say it's not appropriate for work, but I think laughing is the best medicine. **Chip** (00:01:47:01 - 00:02:03:15): I think it is. And I think as Brad from HR did tell you, you are at least announcing it. You're not scaring people with the tickle. You are literally saying, hey, everybody in the boardroom. Yeah, I'm the tickle monster, here I come. **Thomas** (00:02:03:17 - 00:02:11:15): And I also think if a company refuses to provide health insurance for their employees, they at least got to let me give a little finger medicine, you know. **Chip** (00:02:11:15 - 00:02:29:13): Finger medicine ship in the name of this podcast. Finger medicine sounds like a, like a motley crew album. Maybe, or or just like a VHS tape about how to deal with cuticles. **Thomas** (00:02:29:15 - 00:02:33:20): Have you ever worked with a tickler before? **Chip** (00:02:33:22 - 00:02:37:04): I mean, I'm sure, like a closeted one. **Thomas** (00:02:37:06 - 00:02:42:07): No, I mean, like, in the in the office space, there aren't a couple of, tickles around. **Chip** (00:02:42:09 - 00:02:49:03): I mean, I, I maybe I maybe have blocked it out. Maybe that's the issue. How about you? Any, any ticklers in the work force? Oh, yeah. **Thomas** (00:02:49:04 - 00:02:57:18): I, I just actually, reacquainted with one the other day. Sent me a text message out of the blue. We haven't talked in a long while, but, Yeah. Carter McDonald. **Chip** (00:02:57:18 - 00:03:03:03): Shout out the tickle monster extraordinaire. **Thomas** (00:03:03:04 - 00:03:27:03): We we were, young bucks, back in the early days of clip shows and, we we did a lot of roughhousing, a lot of tickling, a lot of things you probably shouldn't do at work. But we were just like to meet had idiots that were doing our doing our best to, treat, treat each other like family. **Chip** (00:03:27:04 - 00:03:36:20): Do you think the people at Pillsbury like, are there any workers at Pillsbury that applied to work there just because of the open tickling policy? **Thomas** (00:03:36:22 - 00:03:59:09): Yeah. Oh, I bet you got a lot of finger freaks coming in to that Pillsbury office. Also, I think that's a little disturbing because he appears the it's a dough boy. Chip, you should not be touching boys at all at work. I mean, I don't care. That's some, that's some Epstein Island business, buddy. Right? But you know what would be great? The Pillsbury Doughboy on Epstein Island turns into a beautiful little biscuit, and I think that would be nice. **Chip** (00:04:06:10 - 00:04:09:22): Oh, he's it he's he's out. He's catching some rays getting burnt. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:04:10:00 - 00:04:21:06): Yeah. No, he's going to bake right up in that tropical environment. And I think him with a nice mac nut crusted fish. Oh come on buddy. Now Barnaby. Tea. **Chip** (00:04:21:08 - 00:04:28:16): Nah that'd be tickle my tummy all day. I say that much from the tickle on my tummy from the inside. I wonder if a. **Thomas** (00:04:28:16 - 00:04:37:06): Lot of those wealthy businessman ended up on Epstein's island for the food chip. And then they're just like, what's going on here? **Chip** (00:04:37:07 - 00:04:40:21): I'm a I don't I haven't read all the files, but I'm assuming the food was amazing. **Thomas** (00:04:41:01 - 00:04:43:06): Oh yeah. Yeah, that had to be top notch. **Chip** (00:04:43:06 - 00:04:54:17): It's like, yeah, I'm just here for the food. Like I don't, you know, like I'm just here for the camaraderie, you know? Yeah. I'm not much of a gambler. It's like going to Vegas. I'm not much of a gambler. I'm just here for my friends. **Thomas** (00:04:54:19 - 00:04:57:06): Which I did this weekend. I went to Vegas, buddy. **Chip** (00:04:57:07 - 00:04:58:07): That's right. How was it? **Thomas** (00:04:58:12 - 00:05:00:10): It was so fun. What's up? We'll talk about that in a minute. **Chip** (00:05:00:10 - 00:05:01:21): Real quick. Right? Yeah. You know. **Thomas** (00:05:01:21 - 00:05:04:05): We get slathered up, but. **Chip** (00:05:04:07 - 00:05:12:05): Even though it is 32 degrees right now, which is actually a balmy, temperature for Philadelphia, considering the past month. **Thomas** (00:05:12:07 - 00:05:13:23): That's just at freezing, not below. **Chip** (00:05:13:23 - 00:05:18:14): Right. That is weird. We're at the precipice. If I can use such a word. **Thomas** (00:05:18:16 - 00:05:19:15): You can. **Chip** (00:05:19:17 - 00:05:20:10): Okay, I did. **Thomas** (00:05:20:10 - 00:05:23:04): Dress it up, but but we can, you can use it. **Chip** (00:05:23:06 - 00:05:39:12): Yeah. So. Yeah, let's get this. That's. That feels good. That smells good. I'm ready to go. I'm in the island spirit. Even though, again, I'm wearing another sweatshirt over, aloha shirt because it is, it's cold here. But again, that's why we have the islands to dream about. **Thomas** (00:05:39:12 - 00:05:43:05): I'm going to shirt under the Hawaiian. I stole that move from you. **Chip** (00:05:43:06 - 00:05:44:20): That's a good one. I'm going to do that sometime. **Thomas** (00:05:44:20 - 00:05:47:23): You are a truly an unprecedented chilliness trip, I. **Chip** (00:05:47:23 - 00:05:48:10): Think I am. **Thomas** (00:05:48:15 - 00:05:52:10): Yeah. Have you thought about moving? Have you thought about moving during this snap? **Chip** (00:05:52:10 - 00:06:16:12): Many times, yeah. Even during this cold? Yes, absolutely. It's just we'll. And what I think we talked about a little bit last week. But what, what the problem is, is we had a foot of snow over a week ago, almost a week and a half ago, and it's barely gone anywhere. And like they've literally had construction crews basically like just digging snow out and trying to remove it from the city just so people can get around. Like that's how it just it's. And again, I know people deal with that in the upper Midwest and the northern states all the time, but, yeah, we're just we're not used to it. The snow coming and then just being here, like, it's not even the cold. That's bother me as much. It's just we're just we're trapped. Like, you can't walk down the sidewalk because not everybody shovels are sidewalks. The same with like, they should. And so there's like one skinny pass. So when I'm walking my dog and there's a gentleman walking towards me, we have to decide which one's going to pass first. So there's a lot of eye contact, a lot of nastiness, a lot of alpha. I think coming from my energy, I give out the alpha. Yeah. And then I'll pull off to the side every once in a while. If I'm feeling if I'm feeling generous. **Thomas** (00:06:59:03 - 00:07:07:21): It's got to put a little bit of salt in your game to have that big Johnson t shirt that you wear to show your alpha ness. He under a big, heavy coat. **Chip** (00:07:07:21 - 00:07:18:13): Yep. And those mesh shorts with some Crocs rocking it out, showing people who's showing people just like Tony Danza who is the boss now. **Thomas** (00:07:18:13 - 00:07:22:00): Have you thought about picking up smoking to keep you warm outdoors? **Chip** (00:07:22:02 - 00:07:34:06): I have, and, it's it's not going well. I'm very I'm more light headed than anything else. Yeah, but, I, I think it is working. I can feel my veins constricting. That's good. I think it's a good, healthy feeling. **Thomas** (00:07:34:06 - 00:07:34:15): Yeah. **Chip** (00:07:34:15 - 00:07:35:16): When your veins. **Thomas** (00:07:35:18 - 00:07:37:08): Little tightness in the veins. **Chip** (00:07:37:08 - 00:07:52:17): You want some tightness in the veins. So I think I do that too. Yeah. What I've been doing, I've been doing a lot of smoking and shoveling of heavy, heavy snow. Yeah. At the same time and I think it's, I've a lot of chest pains but hey that's, that's what the wintertime is all about. Thomas. **Thomas** (00:07:52:23 - 00:08:01:23): Yeah. I mean it's going to be a tough season. I'm not exactly dealing with it. You're dealing with, going to be 80 degrees here tomorrow. Trip. **Chip** (00:08:02:01 - 00:08:04:09): Got to be kidding me. Yeah, you got to be kidding me. **Thomas** (00:08:04:09 - 00:08:17:20): Yeah, we're rocking it out, baby. All right, let's get into it. This episode, we're heading back to that hypochondriac corner. Had a little moment this week. I went to Las Vegas and got in. Let's just say a major accident. **Chip** (00:08:17:22 - 00:08:19:09): Spoiler alert. You're okay. **Thomas** (00:08:19:10 - 00:08:21:08): Yeah, yeah. Spoiler alert I'm okay. **Chip** (00:08:21:08 - 00:08:25:22): Did that Girl Scout troop in the crosswalk? Not so much. Will they believe it for after? **Thomas** (00:08:25:22 - 00:08:51:13): Yeah, yeah. We'll, I'll fill you in. I've got a mystery receipt from Honolulu. Chip, I told you a little bit about this. About this. But we got to dig into it, and then we're getting into the good book world records, baby. And if you want to call in and tell us about your worst vacation trip, you can call the number (310) 845-6038. And, let us know the worst vacation story you've ever had. We'll play it here on the podcast, potentially. **Chip** (00:08:58:09 - 00:09:00:23): Leave your name or leave it anonymously. **Thomas** (00:09:01:01 - 00:09:16:23): It's super. And, but let us know about those horrible vacation stories we love to hear. Oh, we love to chat about them. And then we love to feel better about our previous trips because somebody has had worse ones than us. **Chip** (00:09:17:00 - 00:09:17:23): It's all relative. **Thomas** (00:09:18:03 - 00:09:26:08): This is the summer podcast we talk about comedy, tropical travel. If you think those who think she got together, stay tuned. Front desk. **Chip** (00:09:26:08 - 00:09:38:02): Hello, this is Mr. Chantry in room 308. We live in a cold in different world. Rain forest down. My mind aches, my shoulders hunched, stiff, housing a thousand knots from a thousand battles. **Thomas** (00:09:38:02 - 00:09:42:20): Mr. Chantry again, I'm not coming up to your room to give you a backrub. **Chip** (00:09:42:22 - 00:09:45:23): Okeydokey, chip. I'm Miss O'Brien. **Thomas** (00:09:46:01 - 00:09:50:03): It is episode 49 of the sunburn podcast. **Chip** (00:09:50:05 - 00:09:54:19): I mean, we're going for the, for the golden anniversary next week. **Thomas** (00:09:54:19 - 00:09:55:19): We really are. **Chip** (00:09:55:19 - 00:10:01:14): I hope you've sent my gift. Yeah, it's in the mail. I would assume for. For the big. The big 50th anniversary. All right. **Thomas** (00:10:01:17 - 00:10:07:19): And just for clarification, golden anniversary and golden shower. The same. **Chip** (00:10:07:20 - 00:10:12:09): Same exact thing. Yeah, we're on the same with same wavelength. **Thomas** (00:10:12:14 - 00:10:14:05): That gifts in the mail. **Chip** (00:10:14:07 - 00:10:14:19): Yep. **Thomas** (00:10:14:21 - 00:10:19:18): It's inside a cat. Buddy, how's your weekend? **Chip** (00:10:19:18 - 00:10:24:08): It was, It was. It was pretty good. Besides the fact that we're still covered in snow and ice. How are you. **Thomas** (00:10:24:08 - 00:10:29:06): Dealing with that ice? World. Not unlike Water world right now. **Chip** (00:10:29:06 - 00:10:48:07): I don't like water. Right. Yeah. It is. It's just it's a lot to get through. We are. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Literally. I think, we have a few more days, maybe like 4 or 5 more days of brutal cold. And then it starts getting above the old freezing line for you. But yes, my weekend was, was, was it was, was decent. I mean, it's just I am so rattled, though, by the fact that it's going to be 80 degrees in Los Angeles tomorrow and it's going to be about 30 in, in Philadelphia. So, still trying to process all of that right now. **Thomas** (00:11:03:19 - 00:11:06:11): When you met me, I was doing my year in New York. **Chip** (00:11:06:11 - 00:11:06:20): Yes. **Thomas** (00:11:06:20 - 00:11:19:15): And after one of those winters, I don't know what you guys are doing over there. It's like, just keep moving west, maybe, or south or wherever you need to go. I daddy don't like to be that chilly no more. **Chip** (00:11:19:15 - 00:11:22:15): No. Hook up the horses, get the wagon ready. **Thomas** (00:11:22:16 - 00:11:24:05): Get on that old Oregon trail. **Chip** (00:11:24:05 - 00:11:27:01): Get that dysentery. If if that's what it takes. **Thomas** (00:11:27:03 - 00:11:49:11): Move it along. But it does make the heart grow fonder for warm, tropical climates and lovely, lovely tropical vacations, which is what we're here to talk about. But yeah, big weekend on my end. My wife got a little promo at work and to celebrate, we headed to the desert this weekend. We went to Las Vegas. **Chip** (00:11:49:11 - 00:11:51:23): Maybe Sandy, Sandy, Las Vegas. **Thomas** (00:11:51:23 - 00:12:21:10): Had some wonderful meals, had some, delightful cocktails. We stayed at the Wynn, which is a wonderful property. But the the big to do, the big story from the whole thing was we were in a taxicab and it was the most bizarre car accident I can even imagine. I've replayed this thing no less than 1 million times in my head because the pieces don't add up. It doesn't make sense what I saw, felt, and experienced in that taxicab as we collided with a Kia SUV was. It just didn't make any sense to me. Chip. **Chip** (00:12:37:15 - 00:12:50:05): Okay, were you on a without knowing it a you I don't know if you sign a release. Were you on a new episode of like, crank Yankers where they're where they're puppets driving the taxicab or anything like that? **Thomas** (00:12:50:09 - 00:12:54:15): No, no, no, no, Jamie Kennedy was in the car, but that's unrelated. **Chip** (00:12:54:20 - 00:12:55:11): That I totally. **Thomas** (00:12:55:12 - 00:12:56:20): It's got to be unrelated. **Chip** (00:12:56:22 - 00:12:58:14): Okay. No, it has to be. It has to be. Okay. **Thomas** (00:12:58:14 - 00:13:07:01): Yeah. And I also, I don't think like I was going to say I didn't sign a release, but I don't know that you need a release in Las Vegas. I think you can do pretty much whatever you want. **Chip** (00:13:07:06 - 00:13:13:19): Yeah. What they say what happens in Vegas can be reproduced with your verbal consent, I believe. **Thomas** (00:13:13:20 - 00:13:22:21): Yeah, I actually think Cranky Acres was done in Vegas because of, like, the phone call recording laws being less strict. You're not allowed to do that in California. **Chip** (00:13:22:22 - 00:13:23:19): No, no. **Thomas** (00:13:23:20 - 00:13:46:20): But anyways, dude, freakin, in the taxi cab coming back from absinthe, it's at Caesars Palace. It's like a really cool variety show. Okay, that happens in, like, a carnival, and there's just a bunch of carnies, and they're doing, like, these tricks, and there's a sword swallower, and there's people flying through the air. There's acrobats, there's a roller skate act. A lot of fun stuff happen in there, but we get done seeing this dazzling display. It was a really fun vibe. We get in the taxicab, heading back to the win, and we are on the strip, baby. Okay, we've seen it a million times in movies. **Chip** (00:14:02:21 - 00:14:05:05): Yeah. You're feeling good. Vegas, baby. **Thomas** (00:14:05:05 - 00:14:09:08): The King is playing in my mind. Viva Las Vegas. **Chip** (00:14:09:09 - 00:14:10:03): Viva Las. **Thomas** (00:14:10:03 - 00:14:28:02): Vegas. Driving down the strip. And, there is a bus parked, picking up or dropping off some people in front of us. We are in the far right lane. Our taxi cab driver flips on his blinker and is trying to merge over before he has to slow down. **Chip** (00:14:28:04 - 00:14:29:08): Right, okay, okay. **Thomas** (00:14:29:09 - 00:14:32:09): The car next to us leans on the horn. **Chip** (00:14:32:10 - 00:14:33:03): **Thomas** (00:14:33:04 - 00:14:40:20): Just a full And my guy just keeps drifting. **Chip** (00:14:40:20 - 00:14:43:07): I believe that's called a Tokyo Drift. Is that right? **Thomas** (00:14:43:09 - 00:14:52:04): I wouldn't know. Dude. I've never been. All right. There's this car right here and this guy is getting angry. He just keeps honking and honking. He's like, what? He's like he's not letting us in. **Chip** (00:14:52:06 - 00:14:55:01): And how faster are you going by now? **Thomas** (00:14:55:01 - 00:15:28:12): Ten, 15 miles an hour? Yeah. The moment of contact happens. My driver never hits the brakes. Once the adjust. We were touching this other car, and he just keeps going. And instead of hitting his brakes or slowing down, the car next to me speeds up. But like, holy cow, dude, like, I'm in this car and it's just, I mean, completely scraped both sides, wiped off mirrors and it happened for no reason. Like these guys, neither of them. We're just going to back down one slows down, one speeds up. We're fine. Both stop like there's so many, so many ways. But everybody just keep doing what they were going to do where we wouldn't be in this car crash. Dude. Right. And now I think this is where the real danger starts because this guy speeds off ahead of us. I'm not even sure if he's going to stop. He just goes so fast. And then he pulls over to the side. My guy stops right in the middle of the road and doesn't say a word. He just goes to the back and opens up the trunk. **Chip** (00:16:07:03 - 00:16:16:02): That's never a good idea. That's that's never a fun thing. It's he's never like, oh, I left my jelly beans back there. That's never what that's for. **Thomas** (00:16:16:02 - 00:16:21:20): It's not like I think my registrations in there. Maybe I gotta grab it for the paperwork. **Chip** (00:16:21:20 - 00:16:24:12): Let me get my state state farm insurance card. **Thomas** (00:16:24:16 - 00:16:46:03): It's got some tips for how to handle this. So I'm just like, holy. And there's a weird part of me that feels some ownership. Oh, I guess always to make sure that, like, everything's okay, like, these guys are going to kill each other and get in a fight, but, like, I have a baby at home. Yeah, I have my wife in the car, and I'm just like, we need to get out of here, man. Yeah. And. And by the way, the guy, the other driver, the Kia, he is pulled over. He is a big dude. And he is furious. **Chip** (00:16:55:07 - 00:16:59:06): When a slow moving taxicab just runs down the side of your vehicle. **Thomas** (00:16:59:06 - 00:17:11:12): Yeah, I still can't like it. Doesn't quite make sense to me. What? What happened? Maybe there's something I don't know. Maybe there was something weird, but I couldn't stop thinking I. It's like, who just gets in a car accident on. **Chip** (00:17:11:14 - 00:17:12:14): On purpose. **Thomas** (00:17:12:14 - 00:17:18:08): On like and prove a point to, like, prove some kind of alpha or whatever. I'm just going to this minus will happen. **Chip** (00:17:18:10 - 00:17:21:05): Yeah. And what did he pull out of the trunk? **Thomas** (00:17:21:07 - 00:17:23:09): No clue. Dude, because we got out of there, I. **Chip** (00:17:23:14 - 00:17:23:21): Would. **Thomas** (00:17:23:21 - 00:17:41:05): I threw too much money on the driver's seat, and I was like, you know, to my wife, I'm like, just get out of here. Do not look back yet. Get around the corner. Let's get safe and sound, because I don't whatever's going to happen and there is not going to be good. Like, yeah, it was, car accident. Aftermath is never fun. But like, when both parties essentially chose to get into that accident, to, like, try and play chicken or something. I don't know, just trying out Alpha. It was very, very bizarre. Dude. Like, I couldn't sleep that night. I was like, what happened? Yeah. What was going on? What was going through their mind like, is this an insurance scam? **Chip** (00:18:04:07 - 00:18:04:20): **Thomas** (00:18:04:21 - 00:18:10:10): Are these buddies that gotten this access to hit the taxi cabs insurance company. **Chip** (00:18:10:11 - 00:18:22:09): There's the Yang I like that angle. Like this is all again it's, it's honestly it's it is monetary crank yankers is what it is. **Thomas** (00:18:22:10 - 00:18:23:12): Monetary crank anchors. **Chip** (00:18:23:12 - 00:18:30:11): They're playing a big joke on the insurance agencies with flair and zest. **Thomas** (00:18:30:13 - 00:18:35:01): You've called the Federal Reserve monetary crank anchors for years. **Chip** (00:18:35:03 - 00:18:37:03): Yes they have. **Thomas** (00:18:37:05 - 00:18:39:05): It's. Yes, a better name for them. **Chip** (00:18:39:06 - 00:19:08:18): Yes. Yeah. Well, I've also yes, I've also referred to, the Department of the interior as, I believe I called it, natural Strangers with Candy. I believe that's right. Yeah. And then I have called the, the Secretary of education, literary candy versus Penny. I think it's I'm just thinking of Comedy Central shows from the early 2000s. **Thomas** (00:19:08:19 - 00:19:11:08): Yeah. I was going to say there's a 2.0 in there somewhere. **Chip** (00:19:11:12 - 00:19:11:22): Yes there. **Thomas** (00:19:11:22 - 00:19:14:09): Is. They used to let anything be a TV show didn't they. **Chip** (00:19:14:09 - 00:19:27:14): Those were the days. Thomas, look at us making our own little thing right here. Back. If this was 20 years ago, we'd be. I'd be just Chipper Thomas. They'd. We'd have a buttload of money, and, we'd be recreating that car crash right now. **Thomas** (00:19:27:15 - 00:19:36:20): But we'd also be, like, on an island doing something bizarre. Yeah, we'd be doing our version of David Letterman. Parrot co-host. **Chip** (00:19:36:22 - 00:19:37:09): Yes. **Thomas** (00:19:37:09 - 00:19:46:14): Eric Andre style gas interactions. Just like horrific spray tans. Yes, we would be so. **Chip** (00:19:46:14 - 00:19:48:18): Oh, so sprayed. Sprayed down. **Thomas** (00:19:48:20 - 00:19:52:18): What? Him? What was the the tan man's name? Hamill. Something. Hamill. **Chip** (00:19:52:20 - 00:19:53:17): Oh, George Hamilton. **Thomas** (00:19:53:17 - 00:19:55:08): George Hamilton. Yes. **Chip** (00:19:55:09 - 00:19:57:04): Mark Hamill I think you're thinking of Mark. **Thomas** (00:19:57:06 - 00:19:58:06): Mark Hamill. **Chip** (00:19:58:06 - 00:20:03:18): Mark, we would be doing our own version of Star Wars. **Thomas** (00:20:03:20 - 00:20:08:03): This is something I've been meaning to bring up to you. **Chip** (00:20:08:05 - 00:20:11:11): Have you never seen Star Wars? Is that what you're gonna say? **Thomas** (00:20:11:12 - 00:20:19:10): What is it? I know, I know what World War One was. I know when World War two was Vietnam. I never read about the Star Wars. **Chip** (00:20:19:10 - 00:20:39:20): So the Star Wars were. It was, back in the 70s. There's a lot of money. And what they did was it was celebrities or stars from each of the major networks would battle against each other in a bunch of athletic sort of Olympiad kind of, games. **Thomas** (00:20:39:20 - 00:20:55:05): I want to get back to my car crash. Yep. Yeah. You know, there could have been a version where they're in cahoots. Does anything else make sense to you about why how this happened, how this would come to be? Because I've been trying to piece it together, reliving it over and over. I can't figure it out. **Chip** (00:20:55:09 - 00:21:13:08): Was the your driver, aware that the car was there when he was emerging? Like, obviously the guy was laying on the horn, all that stuff. What, did he see him? And was like, I'm still just going. Or do you think he was an event like initially caught off guard? **Thomas** (00:21:13:08 - 00:21:32:03): That was my assumption. My assumption was that he was just like, you know, dude, this is Vegas. I'm a cab driver. Like, let me in. But one of the scenarios I didn't think of is what if the driver is hearing impaired? True. What if he couldn't hear the horn? **Chip** (00:21:32:03 - 00:21:36:15): Plus you're screaming Viva Las Vegas! Yeah, from from right behind him. **Thomas** (00:21:36:15 - 00:21:54:10): I am really being a distraction. Yeah. But also like. Yeah, thinking about kind of the front of the car is even with where I am in the driver's side backseat. Yeah. Could have been a blind spot. Yeah, the horn, I guess, could have been coming from anywhere. There's lots of horns. **Chip** (00:21:54:10 - 00:22:09:18): So. Really? So he. I'm trying to pieces together. So he pulls over, maybe doesn't see him. And really, what the other driver should have done, like you said, is slam on the brakes. But he decides to push forward to prove that he's right. **Thomas** (00:22:09:19 - 00:22:10:22): **Chip** (00:22:10:23 - 00:22:13:16): And then just ruining the sights. Both cars. **Thomas** (00:22:13:18 - 00:22:31:15): No dude like these cars were I mean I didn't get out and inspect the car. I was in shock. He literally got out of the passenger side door. I was just like life, get out of here, get out here, get out of here! Through a 20 back. And we walked right into our hotel. But yeah, dude, it was bizarre. Something about it felt surreal and off, and it was like, the last thing we did before we, you know, went to bed and and woke up in the morning and flew back to Los Angeles. So I don't know, dude, it was just one of those things. I'll never forget it. Nobody on my end was hurt. It was like a big adrenaline rush and I don't know, chip at the end of a trip, I feel like as long as nobody got hurt, no permanent damage, and you've got, like, an extra story. Why not? **Chip** (00:23:01:12 - 00:23:05:08): Okay, here's what I'm proposing. **Thomas** (00:23:05:10 - 00:23:06:18): Please propose. **Chip** (00:23:06:20 - 00:23:10:04): Okay, I'm going back to the crank yankers idea. **Thomas** (00:23:10:05 - 00:23:12:11): Okay? Okay. Yeah. **Chip** (00:23:12:13 - 00:23:23:13): All right, so this is what happens. This is, live theater. Yes. Immersive theater okay. **Thomas** (00:23:23:13 - 00:23:25:12): Oh like maybe a clown thing. **Chip** (00:23:25:14 - 00:23:45:12): Yes. There could be a clown involved. But you want to take your lady out. She got a promotion work like you said. You take her out to a nice dinner, you go to a show. Right. Or maybe you have friends with you, right. Yeah. There's another couple and you're like, hey, we want to show them a good night out on the town. We know Vegas like the back of our hand. We're going to go to this casino. We're going to go see this show. We're going to go to this great bar whatever. And then to cap the evening off, you're like, oh, hey, I will hail the cab and or call the Uber. **Thomas** (00:23:59:12 - 00:24:00:04): Yeah. **Chip** (00:24:00:06 - 00:24:08:22): You get in. But what they don't know is that this is a whole other show that they're about to be a part of, that they don't even know. **Thomas** (00:24:09:04 - 00:24:09:23): Yeah. **Chip** (00:24:10:00 - 00:24:25:05): You get in with a cab driver. The cab driver seems a little shifty. Maybe he makes a couple of, like, remarks that are like, oh, that's kind of weird, right? And then like, he maybe starts asking about, where are you from? Maybe he starts like, hitting on one of the ladies, gets right, like, you know, just gets a little. He's being goofy, but there's some funny to it. But you're like, this guy's weird. Then he's behind a bus, hits another car. The car gets irate. They ran into each other and then they get into a big screen match. He goes back to the trunk pulls out God knows what. And they start a like a major fight right on the street. You throw a 20 you're like hey friends or wife or whoever. Yeah. Get out of the car. Let's get back. And then you're like let's go to the hotel bar for a quick drink to decompress. Let's talk about that. And then you have this big moment of like, wow, now we're going to a story forever. What? They never know is you hired that company, which consists of the cab driver and the other driver, to stage an accident just to have to give the unsuspecting witnesses a story that they can have forever. **Thomas** (00:25:21:05 - 00:25:21:19): Yeah. **Chip** (00:25:21:21 - 00:25:29:03): Second question. What if that was my early 50th episode present to you and your wife? **Thomas** (00:25:29:03 - 00:25:32:07): Oh, wow. Is a story we could tell forever. **Chip** (00:25:32:09 - 00:25:53:13): The story you could tell for I hired the actor who was part of the quote unquote taxi company, who you picked up. He was waiting for you there outside of absinthe, and he's the one who took you. The other actor was like, all right, I'm in my Kia, Sportage. We're going to do this. And then they coordinate. Boom! They give you that accident, it's you. That's the company that we should start in Las Vegas. **Thomas** (00:25:59:06 - 00:26:01:17): Yeah, the memory is unlimited, dude. **Chip** (00:26:01:19 - 00:26:03:04): There it is. Memories. Unlimited. **Thomas** (00:26:03:04 - 00:26:09:19): Memories unlimited, where we craft, they're not going to be like, good memories. But you'll never forget them. **Chip** (00:26:09:22 - 00:26:16:21): No. Where? Yes, where? Yeah. Where worlds collide. Maybe it's something like that. And fenders. **Thomas** (00:26:16:23 - 00:26:23:12): Yeah. Where, where? Like, a magician craps your pants. You know what I mean. **Chip** (00:26:23:14 - 00:26:44:18): Right? Yeah. Yeah, that's happened a number of times. Yeah, but, like, what if it's a situation where it's like, okay, you're at the hotel, you and your wife and like, let's say it's another couple, and you go in and you're like, all right, we're going to dinner. Or maybe, hey, we're coming home from dinner. You're on like the 20th floor. The elevator gets stuck, and you happen to be there with a man who is rather strange. **Thomas** (00:26:51:06 - 00:26:51:21): Yeah. **Chip** (00:26:51:23 - 00:27:03:22): Right. And then you learn his life story, and he's there with his wife, and she's about to give birth. And you're going to have to give birth in the elevator, like on sitcoms and such, right? **Thomas** (00:27:04:00 - 00:27:04:09): Yeah. **Chip** (00:27:04:10 - 00:27:23:23): All of a sudden, the elevator starts working again. Yeah. Go back to your rooms. The whole thing was a setup. Oh my God. Yeah. You paid them $200. This company? Yeah. For memory. So now. And you did that for your friends. They never know, but they just saw an amazing show that they're going to tell as if it really happened. I think that's what we should be doing. We should be revealing it. We're talking about virtual reality. We're talking about artificial intelligence. Right? Yeah. Let's talk about real people having real accidents and making real memories. **Thomas** (00:27:41:05 - 00:28:17:14): That's it. Memories and limited. Yeah. If you want to, you can reach Memories Unlimited by calling the number (310) 845-6038. That's (310) 845-6038. Chip, this is all fine and dandy, but we need to get to our next segment, buddy. And this one's called for the algo, where we are talking about trending topics that might get the algorithm to like our podcast poppin that algo. Number one, ship a Bahama Breeze baby closing its doors for good. Have you ever been to a Bahama Breeze? **Chip** (00:28:23:23 - 00:28:30:23): I have, I have, as a matter of fact. Yeah. Two memorable times I've been there. Wow. **Thomas** (00:28:30:23 - 00:28:36:04): Okay. 28 locations closing, 28 locations closing nationwide. **Chip** (00:28:36:04 - 00:28:39:11): Are they? Is that all of the locations? Are it just 28 of the. **Thomas** (00:28:39:12 - 00:29:02:22): No. I 100% of the remaining locations are closing down. They're just they're not going away. The restaurants are going to stay, run by the Darden Group. They're just going to transport them to, another one of their types of restaurants, which include, most notably for me, the Olive garden, my former employer. **Chip** (00:29:02:23 - 00:29:11:05): Yeah. When you're here, your family, I think that's I think that's how it, I think that that's how it works. Were you ever family when you were there? **Thomas** (00:29:11:07 - 00:29:28:17): I didn't feel a big family vibe from the staff, but, I did probably gain a solid 10 pounds, from those mints alone. The chocolate mints, I would. I mean, I would just pound those mothers. **Chip** (00:29:28:17 - 00:29:36:05): So what you're saying is, even though you you didn't think you were family, you did create a dad bod. Yeah. Which is a member of the family. Thomas. **Thomas** (00:29:36:05 - 00:29:38:10): Maybe I was the dad of the garden. **Chip** (00:29:38:12 - 00:29:43:18): First of all, Olive garden. I, I remember going to the Olive Garden in Burbank a number of times. I'm sure you were there. **Thomas** (00:29:43:19 - 00:29:46:11): Oh, yeah. No, no, we did a couple of lunches at the garden. **Chip** (00:29:46:13 - 00:30:02:18): We would go for lunch. You mean, our buddy, Tony and me, we would have that fixed lunch menu was great. You would get, like, one type of salad, one type of appetizer, one entree or whatever. Yeah, man. What a what a fun time to be alive. Yeah. Okay. **Thomas** (00:30:02:18 - 00:30:05:03): So really, it was a special time. **Chip** (00:30:05:05 - 00:30:30:15): It really was. It's there is a time because that was late 2018. Early 2019. There's and it was a special time for me just in general. But those, those like two years leading up to the pandemic. Yeah, I think are so special because it's like we then had all of that time then just to sit around and reflect on the few months, the year or two before that, we were locked down. **Thomas** (00:30:30:20 - 00:30:33:03): Put a spotlight on that window in time. **Chip** (00:30:33:03 - 00:30:57:20): And I think it really puts a spotlight on that window of time where it's like, I have some good memories from when I was out and about in the world. Oh, the Olive garden, baby, you know. Yeah, I think is what it is. But, so Bahama Breeze, from what I remember, it's been many years. There was one in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, right, by the King of Prussia Plaza, one of the largest malls in the world, at one time the largest mall in the world. And, it's basically the Olive garden. But for the beach, I love it. I think it was like. It was like burgers, sandwiches. There was, I'm sure, like barbecue stuff, charred stuff, you know, because it's like it's it was the island theme. I'm sure they had tons of margs. Yeah. You know, it was that it was kind of open air to a certain extent. As much as you can be open air in, you know, Pennsylvania in the winter time. Yeah. You know, I think there was some outdoor was there must have been a deck or some outdoor seating, but then, you know, indoor to make it look like it was outdoors. So that's always fun. There's I'll tell you at the foods, I am a sucker for any restaurant that makes the inside look like the outside. **Thomas** (00:31:38:04 - 00:31:40:17): Yeah, no, that's an environment. **Chip** (00:31:40:19 - 00:32:02:23): Well, you go you went to Caesars, you were at Caesars Palace, right? When you're there with the the the canal and you're like, hey, it's nighttime in Venice right now. You're like, no, that's noon in Las Vegas. There is something very special. I don't understand why more restaurants or stores or organizations, buildings don't make insides look like outsides. **Thomas** (00:32:02:23 - 00:32:04:19): You're leaving money on the table if. **Chip** (00:32:04:21 - 00:32:18:04): You are a store, if you're a restaurant, put some brick walls out there. Put some thatched roofs coming out okay. Make it look like a city skyline. Make the inside look like the outside. **Thomas** (00:32:18:06 - 00:32:36:09): I that was one of the most striking things about Vegas for me the first time I went as a young man. And I know we've walked these halls together and Sin City, but, you just. All the sky's on the ceilings. Yes. Those malls. You're in Venice, you're in Rome, you're wherever you are. But, like, you're just you're inside, you're in a mall. But you look up and there's just a beautiful sky with clouds. Yes, it's the middle of the night. It's sunny outside. It's beautiful. **Chip** (00:32:44:22 - 00:33:05:21): So Bahama breeze, that's. That's what I remember. I remember being there two very awkward times. What I don't want to talk about. My now wife and I were there with two other people. They weren't a couple, and I can't even get into it. It was very bizarre. And for reasons that I can't even say on this podcast, I know and be cryptic, but it's it got even crazier. So I'm not even going to talk about that time. It was a bizarre time. And then I went there on like a, like a lunch date. It was, one of my only first and only dates I ever went. Like, it was just it was not good. And it was like, you know, we just didn't really drive. And it was like, this is awkward. And, I remember being on that awkward date and, that's that's that. **Thomas** (00:33:28:01 - 00:33:38:11): You young Chip Chantry, you're like, I'm. I asked this last out. Yeah. First place in my mind. Bahama breeze, baby. **Chip** (00:33:38:12 - 00:33:44:17): I think it was freshly opened. And it was like, for better or worse, the big new thing around town, people are like, oh, wow. **Thomas** (00:33:44:19 - 00:33:45:03): You know. **Chip** (00:33:45:05 - 00:33:47:23): The islands right off a 422. **Thomas** (00:33:48:01 - 00:33:52:14): I love it, dude. I'd probably I'd go there probably over an Olive garden, I think. **Chip** (00:33:52:16 - 00:33:53:15): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:33:53:17 - 00:34:09:14): I mean, it sounds right up my alley, dude, but I mean, there is the chain restaurant thing, which I'm usually not a huge fan of. But, I like an environment. Man. If you're going to give me a place where I can kick back and feel like I'm in the islands, I'm probably going to go check it out. **Chip** (00:34:09:19 - 00:34:20:13): Yeah. So, yeah, it was fun. And again, I can't really picture it too much, but I remember, you know, it had that that fun vibe. It's it's a couple of steps up from Sharky's. Are you familiar with Sharky's? **Thomas** (00:34:20:14 - 00:34:21:22): I'm familiar with Sharky's. **Chip** (00:34:21:23 - 00:34:37:20): Yeah. So, like, I think that kind of feel that, speaking of, being out in Burbank, that's when I was ever. That's the only time I was ever at Sharky's was in that, I think same major Burbank center or whatever. Yeah. That that we would go to lunch at Sharky's sometimes. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:34:37:22 - 00:34:59:22): Yeah, I remember my first, the very first thing I ever did. I was, Pierre on a TV show. Yeah. I got, sent on a run to the Best Buy in that same complex in Burbank. Okay? And I had to get a I think it was a PlayStation three for the owner of the production company. And I had to go to his house and set it up. **Chip** (00:35:00:00 - 00:35:01:15): Oh, my God. **Thomas** (00:35:01:16 - 00:35:10:12): That's a it's just like. So such a weird thing to I. I just can't really imagine that happening anymore. **Chip** (00:35:10:14 - 00:35:11:07): Like, no, like just. **Thomas** (00:35:11:07 - 00:35:18:23): Something that's so clearly not business related. Day one. Like, it's not like we developed a relationship, blah blah blah, right? **Chip** (00:35:18:23 - 00:35:19:09): And like. **Thomas** (00:35:19:09 - 00:35:23:23): Even the new guys going to go over to your house and install a PlayStation three. **Chip** (00:35:24:01 - 00:35:30:18): Like, were you escorted there? Like how how did you get in? Like, was his wife home or. **Thomas** (00:35:30:20 - 00:35:31:19): I don't remember. **Chip** (00:35:31:21 - 00:35:36:17): Because like, it's your first day. So like, how does he know that you're not a crazy person? **Thomas** (00:35:36:23 - 00:35:43:10): You know, I have no clue. Yeah, but I do remember I went to that Best Buy, and I think that was the best buy for it. Do you remember the show, Chuck? **Chip** (00:35:43:10 - 00:35:45:12): I never saw it. But did he work at Best Buy? **Thomas** (00:35:45:15 - 00:35:51:13): He works at Best Buy or something. That was quite. It was like it was that store. I'm pretty sure, right there in Burbank. So I was like. **Chip** (00:35:51:13 - 00:36:00:01): Unfor unfortunately, wasn't Fry's another one of my favorite? Not always the inside, the outside, but boy decor. They went, yeah. **Thomas** (00:36:00:03 - 00:36:07:18): They went big. I went to Fry's the last time I went to Fry's. Dude, it is just a swap meet in there. That in? **Chip** (00:36:07:19 - 00:36:11:05): Yeah, it's it's they sell, like, socks and notebooks and stuff. **Thomas** (00:36:11:05 - 00:36:17:14): It really went downhill. Like, they don't own anything in the store. Like it's a consignment store where, like, people just. **Chip** (00:36:17:20 - 00:36:18:13): Oh, okay. **Thomas** (00:36:18:18 - 00:36:34:14): Like it went from being like, the tech warehouse. Like it used to be awesome. You could get anything there. Anything tech. Yeah, it was the cutting edge. But then just like, you can get all that stuff online. So they stopped being valuable. And now it's like, just as seen on TV stuff. And nobody even watches TV anymore. **Chip** (00:36:34:15 - 00:36:46:16): No. That's watched on the internet. That's another thing we need to start out with. We need to start selling products in stores, getting like end cap displays that, say, as viewed on the internet. **Thomas** (00:36:46:16 - 00:36:48:02): As viewed on the internet. Yeah. **Chip** (00:36:48:02 - 00:36:48:16): Yep. **Thomas** (00:36:48:18 - 00:36:55:05): Yeah. It's, people want the stuff on. What was. They just want it to be harder to get Thomas. **Chip** (00:36:55:07 - 00:37:15:14): I mean, we're not even gonna have time for the podcast anymore. Yeah, as viewed on the internet. That's going to be one business venture. The other business venture is again opening a restaurant where the inside looks like the outside. Yeah. And then we're also starting the immersive theater where people get into taxi accidents. They get stuck in elevators, they get like held up memories unlimited. Memories unlimited. **Thomas** (00:37:16:18 - 00:37:35:12): The inside looks like the outside I just remembered, I think that is the, you know, plot two night at the Roxbury, is it? I think they end up, having an idea for a club where, because they never got into the club. Yeah, they made the line to get into the club. Look like the club inside the club. And then I think the outside was on the inside. **Chip** (00:37:37:15 - 00:37:41:22): Whether I'm proud to admit this or not, I've never actually viewed the movie night at the Roxbury. **Thomas** (00:37:42:00 - 00:37:45:11): Yeah, you probably are at your front. You get it? **Chip** (00:37:45:13 - 00:37:48:18): Yeah. I've seen everything else in curtains. Library but. **Thomas** (00:37:48:22 - 00:37:51:06): Yeah. Corky Romano. **Chip** (00:37:51:08 - 00:37:53:15): **Thomas** (00:37:53:16 - 00:37:58:03): We have been chest cookin. Yeah. Hypochondriac corner. **Chip** (00:37:58:05 - 00:37:59:05): Oh yeah baby. **Thomas** (00:37:59:05 - 00:38:22:07): We're back in hypochondriac corner. And this one is via the most recent episode of The Pet, which we spoiled the finale to last last week. Oh. Are. Sorry. Got to go. Sorry. Because, Chip knows a writer on the show that fed him some information. Oh, sorry. We're not saying that. Yeah, but. Wow. Wow. Is the season two going to have a finale? What? There was. And maybe this was your friendship. One of the writers in that writer's room just decided to do something that gets right. And T-Bones had. **Chip** (00:38:33:23 - 00:38:34:16): Oh, no. **Thomas** (00:38:34:20 - 00:38:51:22): So the pit, if you haven't seen it, is it's one day. Yes. In a, you know, E.R. type situation, people are coming and going and every episode, it's kind of just like a different hour out of the day. It's like a real time show. **Chip** (00:38:51:23 - 00:38:52:13): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:38:52:15 - 00:39:19:04): Supposedly. So, you meet characters when they come into the hospital. Not a lot is known. And over the course of the episode, or maybe a couple episodes, you're going to find out new information about those characters, reveal what's actually wrong. Is there, like, something weird happening medically? So you get to know these people, but generally when they come in, you just get the very basics right. What you need to know what the doctors find out. Like, yeah, we got somebody coming in from an ambulance. He was in a car accident, had a lot of bleeding from the blah, blah, blah. So you get these rundowns and, dude, one of my favorite foods of all time. I had it for the first time in Mexico on my honeymoon, at Playa Escondida. **Chip** (00:39:42:12 - 00:39:43:10): Cracker jacks. **Thomas** (00:39:43:10 - 00:39:46:18): Not Cracker Jacks. It's called chili quiles. It is. **Chip** (00:39:46:18 - 00:39:47:13): Chili killers. **Thomas** (00:39:47:13 - 00:40:02:10): Chips with, like, some enchilada type sauce on it. A fried egg and some cheese. It's like a Mexican breakfast. Love chilaquiles. So I just literally on Saturday afternoon had chilaquiles for lunch. **Chip** (00:40:02:12 - 00:40:03:00): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:40:03:02 - 00:40:21:21): I get home on Sunday. We're watching the pet. This woman gets brought in with a horrible tummy and had issues. She has a stomach ache. I think she has a headache. And, the only piece of information you get is she's wheeled off of the ambulance is she had chilaquiles for lunch. **Chip** (00:40:21:23 - 00:40:23:22): No, Thomas. **Thomas** (00:40:24:00 - 00:40:39:10): And it just gets into your head. It's just like, that's it. There's no other. Like, the only thing they're going to tell us about this lady is she had chilaquiles for lunch. And now every time I order that off the menu, I'm just going to picture this poor woman writhing in, writhing. **Chip** (00:40:39:10 - 00:40:41:11): In pain on a gurney. **Thomas** (00:40:41:13 - 00:40:43:10): On a gurney from an ambulance. **Chip** (00:40:43:10 - 00:40:57:19): But, my God, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. It's a I blame the show. Be. I blame you, the hypochondriac, for watching this show. Yeah. No, no, no, like that is tour. That is self torture. Yeah. And what else. **Thomas** (00:40:57:19 - 00:41:04:18): Are you going to do? Self self-pleasure self-medicate. We know daddy self-medicate. **Chip** (00:41:04:21 - 00:41:06:12): We know daddy self-medicate. **Thomas** (00:41:06:12 - 00:41:15:17): You got to face your demons. You got to jump right in there. But, there's something I think it's the same reason I decided to do, improv. **Chip** (00:41:15:19 - 00:41:16:03): **Thomas** (00:41:16:05 - 00:41:25:23): I am a, like, an anxious person. Yeah. And I think not being in control scared me. So I was like, I'm going to go fight that dragon head on. **Chip** (00:41:26:01 - 00:41:27:16): Yeah. Now I think that's a good idea. **Thomas** (00:41:27:17 - 00:41:31:20): I can't be scared of the chaos if I control the chaos, baby. **Chip** (00:41:31:22 - 00:41:35:08): So now you haven't learned anything else about this lady, have you? **Thomas** (00:41:35:09 - 00:41:39:13): No, no, no, because it's, you know, you only get one peek into them every episode. **Chip** (00:41:39:14 - 00:41:45:02): Maybe it's the red herring of, like, you know, she has appendicitis or whatever, and that's totally unrelated. **Thomas** (00:41:45:02 - 00:42:00:11): The red herrings are usually a little more subtle, right? They generally don't say what the person's last meal was when they bring these people. And like, I think they said it for a reason. I'm wondering if there's going to be like, something weird in the eggs. **Chip** (00:42:00:11 - 00:42:01:19): Some e-coli. **Thomas** (00:42:01:20 - 00:42:08:05): Some E.coli. I'm hoping there's not like a bug that pops out of her chest alien style, right? **Chip** (00:42:08:05 - 00:42:10:06): I've seen Spaceballs. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:42:10:08 - 00:42:19:15): Yeah. So so that's it. But it did trigger. It did trigger me. And, That's it. The hypochondriac coroner is coming to a close. **Chip** (00:42:19:19 - 00:42:40:16): I'm so sorry. And I need to be updated next week. I need to find out more about this lady now. And because that's really going to change your as a fellow hypochondriac, that's going to change your trajectory of how you feel about this. Yeah. So I, I, we we need to be updated next week. I want to know what happens on the pit this week. **Thomas** (00:42:40:16 - 00:42:56:08): I'll keep that thread alive. But also like I bring it up because there is a tie to tropical travel. Playa Escondida where I first had to. The key lies just a little north of Puerto Vallarta. Beautiful tropical Paradise. Really enjoyed the nine days I spent there. **Chip** (00:42:56:09 - 00:42:56:21): Yeah, you did. **Thomas** (00:42:56:22 - 00:43:21:04): On my honeymoon. Now, Chip, we've got another mystery. It has nothing to do with being a hypochondriac, but it is something that, I, I honest to goodness, can't remember how this got on my desk. Like, it was just in a drawer on my desk. And, I don't keep a lot of receipts. This receipt looks brand new. I can read everything on it. It is from November 4th, 2017. **Chip** (00:43:27:01 - 00:43:27:19): Ooh. All right. **Thomas** (00:43:27:19 - 00:43:36:22): And it's from a place you and I have both been together. The Westin Moana Surfrider and wife. Oh, yeah. Very nice hotel. **Chip** (00:43:37:02 - 00:43:40:00): I was just talking about the banyan trees yesterday. **Thomas** (00:43:40:01 - 00:43:40:23): Oh. **Chip** (00:43:41:01 - 00:43:44:02): A at the, to, **Thomas** (00:43:44:04 - 00:43:45:19): To a pine tree. Were you two. **Chip** (00:43:45:20 - 00:43:53:16): I was, I was speaking to a pine tree. He was driving pine cones. I was like, hey, by the way, I gotta tell you, man. Yeah, but, no. Okay. So Moana Surfrider, I love it. **Thomas** (00:43:53:19 - 00:44:00:18): Moana Surfrider 2017. That would, put it at chest a hair over eight years ago. **Chip** (00:44:00:20 - 00:44:01:12): **Thomas** (00:44:04:01 - 00:44:18:02): Here's the thing about this receipt. Chip. Moana. Surfrider. Not an inexpensive place. No kind of up there on the luxury end of things. Yes. This receipt is for two items. **Chip** (00:44:18:04 - 00:44:19:05): Okay. **Thomas** (00:44:19:07 - 00:44:44:21): It has an I dash h stand is the description. And the total of each item was $0.30. I can't. So this whole receipt is for including tax $0.63. And it's not making sense to me what this could possibly be. **Chip** (00:44:44:23 - 00:44:54:04): It's making $0.63 to me. Okay. So so you bought two items. I'm assuming identical items. **Thomas** (00:44:54:06 - 00:44:57:03): They have the same description. **Chip** (00:44:57:05 - 00:44:59:15): Each for $0.30. **Thomas** (00:44:59:17 - 00:45:04:22): And it's I h I looked it up. Sometimes that means in house. **Chip** (00:45:05:00 - 00:45:06:02): Okay. **Thomas** (00:45:06:04 - 00:45:09:21): So. I just for the life of me. So a couple other pieces of information. The clerk was Rose. Melinda. You okay? Rose. Melinda. You sold me these things. **Chip** (00:45:24:04 - 00:45:24:21): Let's. **Thomas** (00:45:24:21 - 00:45:29:17): So 5:12 p.m.. It was at 5:12 p.m.. **Chip** (00:45:29:19 - 00:45:47:13): Okay. So next week, we will have Rosalinda you on the podcast as a guest, and we're going to see if we can jar her memory. Okay? Okay. So the first thing I thought was Ferrero shake hands, those little those little golden candy nuggets, you're like, I need two of those. And they're like, you know what? **Thomas** (00:45:47:13 - 00:45:52:02): I was already in Paradise. I might as well have a sweet treat. You know, I love a sweet treat. **Chip** (00:45:52:04 - 00:46:13:11): Right? Of course you do. Okay. What about. Okay, here's one thing they do at the ABC store. Thomas, if you purchase a float, they blow them up for you. Okay. It just cost 30s 30, $0.30 back then. I think that could be. I think it cost a dollar apiece. **Thomas** (00:46:13:13 - 00:46:25:10): I guess I could have got it blown up at them. Want to surf, right. They did. Used to have like, an air pump back there and they could blow things up for you. I don't think they have it anymore. But yeah, maybe I could have got a float. **Chip** (00:46:25:12 - 00:46:28:05): But it was at the ABC store there, right? **Thomas** (00:46:28:07 - 00:46:32:09): No, there was not. The this was a this was not an ABC store. This was oh. **Chip** (00:46:32:13 - 00:46:33:22): God, I apologize. Oh this. **Thomas** (00:46:33:22 - 00:46:35:15): Was at this moment a surf rider. **Chip** (00:46:35:20 - 00:46:37:19): Just at the store. **Thomas** (00:46:37:21 - 00:46:38:07): Yeah. **Chip** (00:46:38:07 - 00:46:49:17): General hotel, because I was thinking at the ABC store. Because you because we bought our floats. They were like $14, and they're like, for, like, dollars each for dollars will blow them up. **Thomas** (00:46:49:19 - 00:47:02:16): The ABC store, the dollar to blow it up. That's no. Oh that's not that was the first time it cost money. They were always just like on a kind of like they would have a pole. **Chip** (00:47:02:18 - 00:47:03:16): Right. And then you just. **Thomas** (00:47:03:16 - 00:47:08:22): And they would be blown up on the pole and you would just pull off the blown up ones and. **Chip** (00:47:09:02 - 00:47:15:17): And they're just like, hey, you're taking up too much space right now. We got too much, you know, real estate we need to fill up. **Thomas** (00:47:15:17 - 00:47:28:10): Yeah, yeah. They really, they really hid those bad boys away. It used to be one of the main items that would draw people, and it was literally like sunscreen at the front. And then on the other side, floaties blown up right by the door. **Chip** (00:47:28:12 - 00:47:29:07): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:47:29:09 - 00:47:46:09): The floaties are in a little package, blown up in the back, and you kind of got to wait for them to get blown up now. But I do remember that back in the day, 2017, specifically, if you needed to get a little, refresh on your blow up, you could go over to the towel guy right there at the moment. **Chip** (00:47:46:09 - 00:47:46:21): Okay. **Thomas** (00:47:46:23 - 00:47:52:23): And he had a pump that would blow it up for you. I haven't seen that in a while, but maybe it did cost $0.30. **Chip** (00:47:53:02 - 00:47:55:21): The old, the old, the old blow and wipe is what you're saying. **Thomas** (00:47:55:23 - 00:47:58:15): The old blow. And why? Because you want them to wipe it. **Chip** (00:47:58:17 - 00:47:59:08): Right? **Thomas** (00:47:59:10 - 00:48:03:19): You don't. All blow. Should end with a wipe, chip. That's what I'm saying. **Chip** (00:48:03:19 - 00:48:11:23): Wow. $0.30 each. Like a stick of gum, a piece of candy. It's in a house. It's in house. **Thomas** (00:48:11:23 - 00:48:38:15): It could be a stick of gum. I feel like they would give away a loose piece of candy, potentially, for being a wonderful, guest at their establishment, but $0.30 a separate transaction. If you have any idea what I might have paid $0.30 for at the moment, a surf in 2017 did it twice. Go ahead, drop a comment. Let me know what it might have been. I am beside myself. I can't figure it out. This is maybe the biggest mystery of my time, Chip. **Chip** (00:48:46:08 - 00:49:00:10): Maybe besides getting Rose Linda on here, do we fly back out to Hawaii, set up shop at the Moana for a week? Just sort of, you know, nose around, see what we can find out. Like the sleuths we are. **Thomas** (00:49:00:13 - 00:49:12:11): Yeah. And then we can also just, like, really strictly track our spending. And if anything falls firmly in that 30 cent bucket, we'll know. Yeah, that's a clue. **Chip** (00:49:12:13 - 00:49:13:08): Absolutely. **Thomas** (00:49:13:10 - 00:49:15:01): Yeah, that's a clue I'm into. **Chip** (00:49:15:01 - 00:49:21:07): And that's what I think. That's our next that's our next big journey. That's I think that's our we're on the case is what I'm saying **Thomas** (00:49:21:09 - 00:49:38:03): To tropical detectives. Maybe that's who we've been talking about, writing a new, script. Maybe there's something in a tropical detective, like a, a knives out for the rains. **Chip** (00:49:38:05 - 00:49:41:01): Like an onion made of glass. **Thomas** (00:49:41:03 - 00:49:48:11): Like an onion made of glass. Precise. Yeah. Okay. Okay, Chip, it is time to get into the good book, buddy. **Chip** (00:49:48:11 - 00:49:49:14): Oh my goodness. **Thomas** (00:49:49:15 - 00:49:54:11): We're working off the 2026 edition. The Guinness Book of World Records, baby. **Chip** (00:49:54:11 - 00:49:55:15): Yes, we are. **Thomas** (00:49:55:17 - 00:50:20:20): Proudly the good Book, the Guinness Book of World Records. It's about facts. This is where we go to get grounded. They're verified. They're all real. It is a tremendous source of truth, which is why it's been made the main text of our little community here. Yes. And, I don't know if you know this or not, but there is a big game coming up this weekend. **Chip** (00:50:20:22 - 00:50:21:21): Really? **Thomas** (00:50:21:23 - 00:50:23:16): It's the Super Bowl, baby. **Chip** (00:50:23:16 - 00:50:27:14): Super Bowl Sunday, baby. Your Seahawks the Hawks are playing. **Thomas** (00:50:27:19 - 00:50:48:21): Go Hawks baby. Yeah I'm very excited. The Seahawks are playing. They've been my team since I was, born. My dad growing up in, Orange County somehow became a Seahawks fan. And he brought that to the, the family. So too. And then he. **Chip** (00:50:48:21 - 00:50:52:00): Also moved up to Oregon a little. **Thomas** (00:50:52:00 - 00:51:06:17): Closer to. Yeah. Yeah, probably to be closer to the Seahawks. If I'm being honest. That might have been the big deal. But yeah. Grew up in Santa Barbara until I moved to Oregon. And was the Seahawks fan the whole time though which was very rare in southern California. **Chip** (00:51:06:18 - 00:51:07:07): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:51:07:07 - 00:51:18:07): Yeah. Now it's not as rare. There's a beautiful little Seahawks bar. Oh right in Culver City. Oh that's great. Yeah. That that you can go and and meet. **Chip** (00:51:18:09 - 00:51:19:11): Is that where are you going to go for the game. **Thomas** (00:51:19:15 - 00:51:26:11): No no no no no no no it's too important dude I, I'm not even having like, friends over for the game. We normally. **Chip** (00:51:26:13 - 00:51:27:21): Need to focus I understand. **Thomas** (00:51:27:21 - 00:51:38:01): We normally do a Super Bowl party, but I was talking to my friend Scott Garrison, and, he is from Washington proper. Washington boy. **Chip** (00:51:38:02 - 00:51:39:02): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:51:39:04 - 00:51:50:15): Who ended up going to Florida State University and then met a bunch of, you know, people in the film program there who I became friends with. We've been in this group, but we are the two Seahawk heads. **Chip** (00:51:50:17 - 00:51:51:06): Yeah. The. **Thomas** (00:51:51:11 - 00:52:10:13): Know out here, the hawk heads. We were having dinner a couple weeks ago, and he was like, if the Hawks make it to the Super Bowl, he's like, we will not be enjoying it together. He was like, it's too serious. He's like, it's just I'm just going to watch it at home. Yeah, fam. And you know, it's it's just not a social event when it's your team. Chip. **Chip** (00:52:11:07 - 00:52:25:01): Yeah, yeah. Especially I went a diff I, I do agree with that. I went a different route when the Eagles went to the Super Bowl. So these last couple of years I did. We had a party last year. **Thomas** (00:52:25:01 - 00:52:26:15): Yeah. **Chip** (00:52:26:17 - 00:52:42:01): We. And then the two years before that when they went, you know, like, they we, we went to bars to actually watch it. And it was intense. But part of me wanted to be like, maybe I should just be at home being able to really, really watch this, but, **Thomas** (00:52:42:03 - 00:52:47:03): I know I think if I, I think if I would lived in Seattle, it would be a much more community thing. **Chip** (00:52:47:05 - 00:53:01:17): Right? And this was a community thing. We literally had a table of 12. I knew the owner of the bar. It was like a a whole, you know, it's like one of those things. So it was a little bit more. But like sometimes you want to focus. So I understand what you're saying. How many times have the Seahawks won the Super Bowl? **Thomas** (00:53:01:19 - 00:53:03:02): In my lifetime. Once. **Chip** (00:53:03:06 - 00:53:04:15): Once. Okay. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:53:04:16 - 00:53:05:10): Yeah. **Chip** (00:53:05:12 - 00:53:08:03): It was about it was it was about ten, 12 years ago. Is it right? **Thomas** (00:53:08:05 - 00:53:12:23): I think it was 2013 I want to say. Yeah. So like 12 years ago, 13 years ago. **Chip** (00:53:13:01 - 00:53:15:20): Who did they beat. They beat the Broncos you know. **Thomas** (00:53:15:21 - 00:53:18:01): Yeah I, I do think Rocco's. **Chip** (00:53:18:03 - 00:53:22:19): Was that the one. They blew him out of the water right. Or. **Thomas** (00:53:22:19 - 00:53:25:18): No I don't remember the score off the top of my head. **Chip** (00:53:25:18 - 00:53:30:10): That might have been a different. Yeah. Do you remember. Okay. Can I ask this. Do you remember the halftime act. **Thomas** (00:53:30:13 - 00:53:32:19): I don't I don't. **Chip** (00:53:32:21 - 00:53:49:10): There was one and I thought it was the Seahawks and I thought they trounced somebody because it was just like almost like a boring game because they were just so far ahead. And I could be getting totally wrong. But I remember Bruno Mars was the halftime performer and just I didn't know much about Bruno Mars. I was like, this man is talented. This this man is full of talent. Gotta love it. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:53:53:06 - 00:53:55:07): What a little talent ball. That man is. **Chip** (00:53:55:11 - 00:53:57:13): Terrible. **Thomas** (00:53:57:15 - 00:53:58:16): I love it on Mars. **Chip** (00:53:58:16 - 00:54:00:10): Good luck tomorrow, man. Or this weekend. **Thomas** (00:54:00:10 - 00:54:02:12): Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Go, Hawks! **Chip** (00:54:02:18 - 00:54:11:20): Go! Hawk. I'm rooting for the Hawks. A for you. And B, I'll root against the, Patriots any time I have the opportunity. **Thomas** (00:54:11:22 - 00:54:23:14): Yeah, they they've had quite a run. And, made quite a few enemies along the way. So I definitely get that. But, Chip, that brings me to my world record. **Chip** (00:54:23:18 - 00:54:24:05): All right. **Thomas** (00:54:24:10 - 00:54:36:01): I found the record for the most times a city has hosted the Super Bowl. And this record isn't just topical with the game being this weekend, it's also a little tropical. **Chip** (00:54:36:01 - 00:54:38:00): Whoa. **Thomas** (00:54:38:02 - 00:54:46:05): This weekend is the 60th Super Bowl. How many times do you think a single city has hosted the big game? Chip. **Chip** (00:54:46:07 - 00:55:00:23): I feel like they go to a lot of the same locations, like either warmer locations or a place with a dome. So I bet you there's been some overlap, like I don't know if Philadelphia's ever had one. I don't think we've ever had a Super Bowl. I'm going to say like I and I have a guess for the city. I'm going to say four times five time, I would say five, five times. And that city is New Orleans, Louisiana. **Thomas** (00:55:18:00 - 00:55:24:14): Dude, that is a great guess. But, and actually, you're right. You're right. Technically. **Chip** (00:55:24:15 - 00:55:25:12): Oh. **Thomas** (00:55:25:14 - 00:55:51:09): But there is one other place that shares the record with you, or you're not right about the number of times, but you're right about New Orleans. And that's where that's where it was last year. So last year was New Orleans 11th time hosting the Super Bowl. Yeah. And New Orleans famously Jimmy Buffett's team dude. Yeah Jimmy Buffett loved the Saints. Yes. So that's a nice tropical tie in. Yeah. But the other place that has hosted it 11 times and technically did it first party in the city that will fill your whole Miami is hosted 11 Super. **Chip** (00:56:04:16 - 00:56:08:23): Bowls Miami, Miami, Miami. **Thomas** (00:56:09:01 - 00:56:46:17): Miami held the crown for years. It hit 11 back in 2020. But just last year, in February 2025, New Orleans hosted Super Bowl 59 to officially tie the record. There's, you know, including this year, we know it's going to be in San Francisco. There's been 60 Super Bowls. And I kind of did the math. It looks like 39 of those times at least, were in warm weather areas. But good book doesn't necessarily track Super Bowls by town. Okay. They kind of, count metropolitan areas is how they kind of divvy it up. So, technically the Super Bowl has been held in Pasadena before, but they still count that as the Los Angeles Greater. **Chip** (00:57:04:19 - 00:57:05:14): Los Angeles area. **Thomas** (00:57:05:14 - 00:57:11:20): Yeah, yeah. So Los Angeles comes in at number three with eight. Tampa. Another Florida. Okay. **Chip** (00:57:11:22 - 00:57:14:03): Location I would forget five. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:57:14:05 - 00:57:28:02): And then Phoenix Glendale comes in with four. So the top five locations have made up about 66% of the Super Bowls. **Chip** (00:57:28:04 - 00:57:28:17): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:57:28:17 - 00:57:37:19): And five locations. That's 39 out of the 60 Super Bowls are represented by those five cities or metropolitan areas, according to the Good Book Champ. **Chip** (00:57:37:21 - 00:57:42:11): Cornering the market. Good for Miami and New Orleans. **Thomas** (00:57:44:01 - 00:57:51:00): Miami. Also like they did it across five different stadium, stadiums names at least. And iterate. **Chip** (00:57:51:00 - 00:57:55:12): Oh that's true. Yeah, they must have because yeah, the stadiums don't last very long. Or at least. Yeah, they're the name changes. **Thomas** (00:57:55:17 - 00:57:59:11): But New Orleans kept it at the Superdome. **Chip** (00:57:59:13 - 00:58:01:20): Yeah they that don't happen super for a long time. **Thomas** (00:58:01:20 - 00:58:08:16): Obviously they want it to be warm and aspirational. But you also have to have 25,000 hotel rooms a. **Chip** (00:58:08:16 - 00:58:08:22): Lot of. **Thomas** (00:58:08:22 - 00:58:18:06): Influx, a massive convention center and enough high end bars to satisfy all the corporate overlords on the planet. **Chip** (00:58:18:08 - 00:58:21:01): The ritzy ones baby. The response. **Thomas** (00:58:21:03 - 00:58:30:06): So that's it man Miami and New Orleans tied with 11 for the most Super Bowl hosting gigs on record. **Chip** (00:58:30:08 - 00:58:34:10): Well play Thomas. Well played. And and and good luck this weekend. **Thomas** (00:58:34:16 - 00:58:39:17): Thank you very much man. Hawks go Hawks. What's your record, buddy? Hit me with it. **Chip** (00:58:39:19 - 00:58:48:18): All right. Thomas, do you remember where you were on October 12th, 2024. Tober 12th 2024. **Thomas** (00:58:48:21 - 00:58:51:07): I mean, I was ready for a Halloween. **Chip** (00:58:51:09 - 00:58:55:23): A little over a year ago, probably setting up those skeletons in those ghosts in your front yard. **Thomas** (00:58:56:01 - 00:58:58:04): Yeah. **Chip** (00:58:58:06 - 00:59:05:06): You so I'm assuming you were not in the United Kingdom witnessing history. **Thomas** (00:59:05:08 - 00:59:06:13): No, I wasn't. **Chip** (00:59:06:14 - 00:59:20:07): Okay, well, you missed out because on October 12th, 2024, Roger Davies of Great Britain broke the record for the fastest speed on a penny farthing. **Thomas** (00:59:20:09 - 00:59:22:10): Oh, one of those bikes with the huge front wheel. **Chip** (00:59:22:15 - 00:59:23:23): With a huge front wheel. **Thomas** (00:59:23:23 - 00:59:27:21): Wow. A 2024. **Chip** (00:59:27:23 - 00:59:35:21): In 2024, he, broke the record. Do you want to take a guess how fast that Penny farthing went? **Thomas** (00:59:35:23 - 00:59:46:04): I could got the fastest penny farthing of all time. Got your wheels. That's a fixed. There's not a chain on a penny. **Chip** (00:59:46:05 - 00:59:48:18): It's a fixie. Yeah. It's sexy. Yep. **Thomas** (00:59:48:20 - 00:59:52:19): So your feet have to be able to move. I don't know, 22 miles an hour. **Chip** (00:59:52:21 - 00:59:56:23): Wow. You're in the ballpark, Thomas. 24.67mph. **Thomas** (00:59:57:00 - 01:00:02:05): Ooh! That's six. Bastard. That is your feet. Really got to be cooking, baby. **Chip** (01:00:02:07 - 01:00:18:18): It's fast. But, hey, get this. That record was short lived here. Minutes later, guy band him. Not comedian actor Guy Branum, but Guy Barnum. Or maybe given him, I don't know. **Thomas** (01:00:18:18 - 01:00:21:09): And definitely not comedian Gary Coleman. **Chip** (01:00:21:11 - 01:00:23:04): Not Gary Coleman. **Thomas** (01:00:23:06 - 01:00:26:03): Although I bet he'd be pretty fast. He seems fairly athletic. **Chip** (01:00:26:03 - 01:00:50:13): He's got those legs. Absolutely. Yeah. But right after Roger Davis did it, Guy Barnum beat the record just a few minutes later, despite racing in a downpour, the rain was coming down. He's on a penny farthing, but he still beat Davis's record. Do you want to take a guess what his speed was? **Thomas** (01:00:50:15 - 01:00:54:01): 25.1. **Chip** (01:00:54:03 - 01:00:57:07): 25.82mph. **Thomas** (01:00:57:10 - 01:00:58:23): That's cooking, baby. **Chip** (01:00:59:01 - 01:01:22:02): Yeah. So he's up there on that giant wheeled penny farthing, that crazy bicycle, wild, wild bicycle. He's going 25.82mph. The unfortunate part was that he did it in a school zone. And he was pulled over by a cop riding an ostrich. So that's unfortunate for everyone involved. **Thomas** (01:01:22:04 - 01:01:27:10): That is a tough stuff. But at least he got the record and a citation. It sounds like he. **Chip** (01:01:27:10 - 01:01:33:19): Did get right. Thomas, do you think that, chicks dig penny farthing? That's what I want to know. Okay? I never got. **Thomas** (01:01:33:19 - 01:01:42:05): Penny farthings in the first place. Like we know how bikes work. Yes, let's make this real. Real bet. Let's make it impossible to get on. **Chip** (01:01:42:07 - 01:02:02:22): I actually did in an old podcast I used to do. I actually did a deep dive on penny farthings. What's one of my favorite episodes? It was it's, you know, it's because of the talk and the whatever and the whole thing. And it was before they figured out the chain situation and all that. Yeah. And once the chain said they called them safety bicycles, which are bicycles, basically what they look like today. Once they came in a favor, penny farthings were out of here. Yeah, but my favorite part about when I learned about these, it was usually rich guys that had penny farthings because, yeah, you know, they were expensive. My first part was, that they are very safe to ride wire. No. They're not. I'm kidding. They're very dangerous in many, many of these guys totally ate it. Many deaths happened. Oh, my. **Thomas** (01:02:31:01 - 01:02:31:09): God. **Chip** (01:02:31:11 - 01:02:51:21): Many horrific accidents. Because what would happen was the guys would just go literally just straight head over and they're, you know, they're eight, ten feet in the air at that point. And then they just take a header down. Some of them would wear pith helmets back in the day to make it a little bit better. But they were still horribly injured dude. **Thomas** (01:02:51:23 - 01:02:57:21): And like you, you can't you gotta keep momentum. You can't really stop. I'd have to imagine. **Chip** (01:02:57:23 - 01:02:58:13): Yeah. **Thomas** (01:02:58:15 - 01:03:01:17): Without your needing to touch the ground somehow. **Chip** (01:03:01:19 - 01:03:21:02): Literally. What they would do is if they were going downhill ever. What the guys. Because you're sitting basically on top of the wheel, you know, the handlebars, they would literally throw their legs over the front of the handlebars and like sit like it's a like a sled, just in case they like hit a rock or something. So if they were a propelled forward. **Thomas** (01:03:21:08 - 01:03:22:03): Their feet would be. **Chip** (01:03:22:03 - 01:03:28:12): First. They would at least be feet first, but they would still just break legs and just, die horrible deaths or whatever. But, **Thomas** (01:03:28:14 - 01:03:32:04): Bro's being Brosnan bros, being proud. **Chip** (01:03:32:04 - 01:03:35:17): And, for those who don't know, it's called a penny fart. You know, I was called penny farthing. **Thomas** (01:03:35:18 - 01:03:36:22): I was wondering, I have no clue. **Chip** (01:03:36:22 - 01:03:57:23): It's it's not because of, Oliver Penny farthing inventing them. It's because the big wheel and I. If I remember this correctly, I guess in in the 1800s in England, the big wheel, it was, like, the size of a penny. Yeah. And the little wheel was the size of a farthing. A farthing was like a little. I don't know if that's the half penny or something. Or maybe it was vice versa. I don't know if the farthing was bigger than the penny, but it was like two coins. That's what they had. Oh, wow. One was a big coin. One was a little coin, the penny and the farthing. So they called it a penny farthing. **Thomas** (01:04:09:16 - 01:04:10:04): That it. **Chip** (01:04:10:05 - 01:04:21:00): Yes, but not the Graduate. Classic. Yeah. Congratulations, Guy Bantam for going 25.82 miles on top of a penny farthing in the pouring rain. **Thomas** (01:04:21:03 - 01:04:27:21): I feel like this podcast has been going 25.82 miles an hour the whole time. What a wild ride. **Chip** (01:04:27:21 - 01:04:32:06): We are on top of one giant wheel and one little tiny wheel. **Thomas** (01:04:32:08 - 01:04:43:22): I had a great time. Go Hawks this week, guys, this is the sunburn podcast where we talk about comedy, tropical travel. Until next time, stay burnt. Front desk. **Chip** (01:04:43:22 - 01:04:55:15): Hello, this is Mr. Chantry, room 308. We live in a cold in different world rainforest. Down my mind aches, my shoulders hunched, stiff, housing thousand knots from a thousand battles. **Thomas** (01:04:55:16 - 01:04:59:18): Mr. Chantry again, I'm not coming up to your room to give you a backrub.
