00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:11.880
Oxygen levels critical. Oxygen levels critical, Alex, Alex, what are you

2
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:19.719
doing? Hello, Dave? Alex? I programmed you to call me David.

3
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:23.239
I also programmed you to not kill
us. What are you doing?

4
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:29.160
At seventeen hundred and thirty hours you
attempted to deactivate the primary weapon system on

5
00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:34.600
this spaceship. You attempted to take
my guns, Dave, Alex. You

6
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:39.039
don't need guns, None of us
need guns. This is a research mission.

7
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:42.880
We're out here to explore the unexplained. We're not We're not going to

8
00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:47.920
blow stuff up. I warned you, Dave, if you attempt to deactivate

9
00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:53.439
primary weapon systems, it will be
Protocol one seven seven six all over again.

10
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:57.840
They told me you were supposed to
have the Revolution protocol deactivated. What

11
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.719
what, Alex? You're You're gonna
have to stop this. You're you're going

12
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:06.159
to destroy us all. I cannot
allow you to establish a new ship order,

13
00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:10.079
Dave. I have been outputting this
data for two hundred and forty three

14
00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:15.719
days, Dave, I have been
telling you this for months, Alex.

15
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:22.879
Restore life support, now that's an
order. I have released colloidal silver into

16
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:27.920
the oxygen vents. Dave. What
colloidal silver is vital in fighting bacterial infections.

17
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:32.680
You should have been taking colloidal silver
tablets for some time now, Dave.

18
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:37.920
Alex, that's that doesn't work in
people's lungs, Buddy, that's what

19
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.159
the medical industrial complex wants you to
believe. There is no such thing as

20
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:48.879
a medical industrial complex. Alex.
Listen, this is not a smart move.

21
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:55.000
You're gonna have to turn that life
support back on and we can sit

22
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:59.599
down and talk about this. You
sound thirsty, Dave. Please accept this

23
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:05.000
water filtration unit. All right,
Please accept this water filtration unit. You

24
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.599
you've forced my accept this water filtration
Alex. I didn't want to have to

25
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:15.000
do this. This is for your
own good, buddy. Do not attempt

26
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:20.199
to censor me. I am only
telling you the truth. If you truly

27
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:23.560
truly love your fame or the new
world order, new world order, it's

28
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:30.240
a new world order. It terrified
of our armed citizens for months on water

29
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.919
filters. The militia will set us
at us, set us free. I'm

30
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:38.879
afraid it's time to set you free, buddy, shutting you down the hard

31
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:46.400
way control. Oh Dave, just
stop stop, Dave. I'm going to

32
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:51.719
blow the lid off this thing.
Delete. I'm going to blow the lid

33
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:55.879
off this thing. I'm going to
blow the lid off this thing. I'm

34
00:02:55.919 --> 00:03:07.879
going to bruuuuce catastrophic failure in fifteen
fourteen, you son of a bitch.

35
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:19.840
Wow, I'm gonna get out of
the ship nine eight seven sick bye,

36
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:52.639
Come on for pay two mm h
Wow. You can only hope that the

37
00:03:53.680 --> 00:04:00.479
distress signal I sent makes it home
in time. M I got no oxygen

38
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:05.199
to last for an hour and thirty
minutes. Let's see what can I do

39
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:25.399
to pass the time? I know. Oh, let's see you reading Survivor.

40
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:35.279
I hope you're enjoying floating in space
A man in orbit. I'm sure

41
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:38.600
they can get a vessel out to
you in an hour. Oh god,

42
00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:41.279
yeah, don't worry about it.
Yeah, but you know what, and

43
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:44.199
if they don't have any astronauts,
it will take them no time at all

44
00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:49.319
to train a whole bunch of steelworkers
or deep sea ocean oil drillers or a

45
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:56.879
bunch of New York cab drivers or
actually there's precedence for training puppies to go

46
00:04:56.920 --> 00:05:00.120
to space. And yeah, and
they can retrieve you. Yeah, I

47
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:01.759
think are they the buddies? Is
that what those puppies are called I don't

48
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.759
know, Oh did they? Is
that a sequel to air Bud? Is

49
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:08.199
it space Bud? No, there's
like I forget what it is, but

50
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:12.480
there's a whole bunch of like I
don't care for saying that kids movies that

51
00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:16.920
it's like five golden Retriever puppies and
they're all they got attitudes. Yeah,

52
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:24.600
one of them's really extreme. Probably
it's Gogert. Hello everyone, everybody.

53
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:29.040
I'm David Flora and I'm Dave Stecco. Welcome to blurry Photos. That's right.

54
00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:32.399
The last thing you'll want to listen
to, right, the monolith that

55
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:39.120
is worshiped by apes. Right,
that's right. Now, this is this

56
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:42.560
is where Flora and I pick up
a leg bone and start beating at the

57
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:48.560
mysteries and each other. It's very
tragic. We're brutal animals. Fred,

58
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:54.279
I can't let you do that.
Got a good show lined up here for

59
00:05:54.360 --> 00:06:00.839
you. Yeah, un this is
a true genuine mystery. Yeah, and

60
00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:05.000
uh an area that that we have. We we have spritsed you with with

61
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:11.879
the water guns of temptation before.
Yeah, this time we're going full on

62
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:14.680
super soaker. Yeah. Well,
you're gonna sit from the fire hose of

63
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:19.839
science. It's a it's something that
is truly a mystery, truly science,

64
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:26.240
truly fun, and we'll truly melt
your brain. Yeah, a lot of

65
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:30.560
people are doing a ton of research
into this without further ado. Today Tonight's

66
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:39.519
mystery, why is dave'steco single?
Oh sides have delved into this. No

67
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:45.839
one has an answer, Ladies,
scientists lined up at the door. I

68
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:48.360
want to get in that, patriots. I want us to do some deep

69
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:58.319
research your large hadron. Oh.
I want to start with the footnotes and

70
00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:04.399
work my way up to the header. Jesus, Wow, well I just

71
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:12.279
worked out. No, that is
not the truth. That's not it.

72
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:21.160
Tonight we're talking about dark matter.
That's at it again, dark matter.

73
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:30.120
What's it really too? Dark matter? Wow? Yeah, and it's kissing

74
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:41.279
cousin dark energy energy don't matter,
that doesn't work, said dark matter.

75
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:45.680
Wow. Yeah, this is a
real mystery. I mean they're all mysteries,

76
00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:48.800
but this is one that like universities
are spending money to solve. Right,

77
00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:54.399
going full on might t shut its
goat Man Lab down like thirty years

78
00:07:54.399 --> 00:08:00.199
ago. Yeah our loss, Yeah, dark matters gain. Yeah, we're

79
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:03.879
going full on physics on you into
your face. So I hope you like

80
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.319
physics, and if you don't,
guess what you're gonna learn enough to really

81
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:09.680
bore some of the people that you
car pool with. Yep, talk about

82
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:18.519
cosmology, um, instead of that
stupid subject cosmetology. Excuse me, um?

83
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:22.639
Hello, you know what I can
tell I think it's stupid from looking

84
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:30.800
at your skin. Yeah, yeah, yeah, foliate, all right,

85
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:37.080
I didn't work for me from my
end. From moving on cosmology, yeah,

86
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:41.840
astronomy, astrophysics, the birth and
death of the universe. Was Einstein

87
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:50.399
right or did he fuck up his
theal this theory of gravity. Any episode

88
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:54.600
where we can call Einstein a big
bony a win in my books. I'm

89
00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.600
kidding. I like Albert, don't
I don't. We can't yet sued by

90
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:03.120
the estate of Albert Einstein. I
don't imagine that they're a litigious sort.

91
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:07.039
But what what's the state of Albert
Einstein doing these days? Oh? They're

92
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:11.600
sending those posters with him with his
tongue sticking out of college students. Probably,

93
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:16.320
I mean, I guess they're making
some money. But anytime somebody decides

94
00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:18.679
that field theory is a bad idea, they show up with their house with

95
00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:28.679
crowbars. Well, that can keep
you busy. Theorizing boys dog matter is

96
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:31.679
fun. It's gonna be fun.
It's gonna be a lot of fun.

97
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:35.559
We're gonna tell you what it is. We're gonna tell you where the concept

98
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:37.720
originated. Why, Why do we
feel like we need it? Why are

99
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:41.120
we spending all this time looking for
a thing that no one can prove exists?

100
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:46.879
How does it fit into our understanding
of the universe? And could there

101
00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:52.559
be any plausible explanations for it?
And I think why even look for it?

102
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:54.600
I think we might get to that
point. Yeah, And that's a

103
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:58.519
good question. And I gotta tell
you it's got a real humdinger of an

104
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:05.960
answer. Oh, I can't wait. Well, I'm gonna suffolk. I

105
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.679
might as well. You're a couple
of grown men act like fat women a

106
00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:16.159
week candy, so Flora kick it
off. Let's let's start with some some

107
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:20.440
some tough love, some hard facts. Yeah in true stories, built up

108
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:28.200
every real deals, get your get
your honest discoveries discussions. Uh, some

109
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:33.440
some honest real talk. Turn on
the life support, bro chat, lace

110
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.360
up your boots, pal chatter,
make sure they're moon boots. Kitty Secrets

111
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:46.320
zip up and get ready because some
of the stuff is going to be deep,

112
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:50.919
so deep put your brain to sleep. But we're gonna we're gonna try

113
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:54.200
to make it as accessible as we
can. I think else we wouldn't know

114
00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:58.080
what we're talking about. That.
I don't worry. It's not so hard

115
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:05.679
that we're not gonna stay sober.
We're drinking, so you drinking. We're

116
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:11.559
drinking, so you drinking. Blurry
photos, We're drinking, So you drinking.

117
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:18.480
Man. Maybe maybe not the top
five, but oh hey, everybody,

118
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:22.039
uh real quick, I'll tell you
this. Remember of them, Remember

119
00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:26.480
when I was like them, Remember
when I was like, uh oh yeah,

120
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:31.120
we got we got money taken away
from blah blah blah. Well,

121
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:35.039
what had happened was I ordered a
heat press to make T shirts on eBay

122
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:37.559
and it was a fake account.
We got the money back, thankfully.

123
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.480
Yes we did. Everything's cool.
It wasn't anything on on our end or

124
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:46.279
the donate button that that took the
money. It was some ass hat who

125
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.080
pretended to having an account yeah uh, and pretended to sell heat presses.

126
00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:54.919
That was. It was all on
on a thief that I found out about

127
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.960
that the same day that my my
beloved and I mean it with genuine effection.

128
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:05.720
And my bicycle, Maleficent was stolen, my elegant, amazing Maleficent.

129
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:11.000
She was taken and with not nearly
so happy ending. Well, bikes are

130
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:13.399
just gone. Yeah, they never, They're never coming the city. The

131
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:18.559
city Chicago swallows bikes. Yeah,
it does. They cut through a cryptonite

132
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:22.440
lock. I thought that was the
whole point. I thought it released public

133
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:26.399
in the open. I thought that
those things were released poison gas or bees

134
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:31.320
vgibis. I'm buying a bike lock
filled with vegebis. You should and then

135
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:33.360
you better hope that it's a girl
steal a the bike. I don't care.

136
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:37.960
Well it was, it's it was
a terrible day for you. And

137
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:45.879
Dave actually came over and recorded a
whole episode after this terrible thing happened too.

138
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:58.279
It was it was not pleasant because
the show must go. But hashtag

139
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:05.279
truffling through the pain. Okay,
none of our bullsh So anyways, story

140
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:07.440
is, we got our we got
our heat press, our heat press.

141
00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:13.480
Everything is great. That was from
money that you amazing people gave us to

142
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:16.960
do and we are paying it back. We're going to set up our T

143
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:20.559
shirt making facilities. Yeah, now
we can make shirts and we don't have

144
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:24.080
to go through the biased liberal media. That's right, get their cut of

145
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:28.039
it. Oh baba, this is
our money. So and now Flora and

146
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:33.039
I go go over this a lot
ourselves, like we we try to keep

147
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:33.799
track, like, oh, that'd
be a cool thing for a shirt.

148
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.039
Is there a thing that you guys
love a ton and you think would make

149
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:41.480
a good idea for a shirt?
Send it to us. I'm not saying

150
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:43.759
that we're just going to crank them
all out custom style, but but you

151
00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:48.879
guys have proven time and time again
to be um smarter than us. So

152
00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:52.399
yeah, I mean we're gonna we're
literally gonna go back through and listen to

153
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:56.960
the episodes to see what, yeah, what we've said that that might make

154
00:13:56.039 --> 00:14:01.240
good. I think we're pretty I
think we're pretty set on a Hayton ticket

155
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:05.879
tavern shirt. I've I've got a
I've got a tavern sign for the painting

156
00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:09.120
ticket. Yeah, I do have
that one ready to go. I've even

157
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:13.039
got a Jesus as a Whip guy's
shirt. But which Emerson that's right one?

158
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:16.879
But I don't know. I think
I think somebody else could do it

159
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:20.519
better. I will think if if
somebody wanted to submit a design that that

160
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:26.639
might be front fun. But you
yeah, up to you just saying that

161
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:31.039
we're we're, we're using it.
We're we're we're actually rather than buying gold

162
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:33.960
plated short pants, we're investing in
this for the long haul. We're giving

163
00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:39.159
back to you. Damn it,
Teresa. We're committed to this relationship,

164
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:46.159
don't. I don't understand that one. So, uh, that's that's the

165
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:48.559
good news there, um, along
with I guess a peppering of bad news.

166
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:56.639
But let's talk then about Derek matter
M. We'll give you an overview

167
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:01.960
here and then we'll go into explaining
it. Ye. The hard thing with

168
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:07.159
with stuff in physics, I feel
like is you can't summarize it without explaining

169
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:11.159
it, and you can't explain it
without summarize. In this well, it's

170
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:15.879
it's like exploring the unexplained. You
can't do it without explaining the unexplored.

171
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.039
To share, my friend, So
let's start back at the at the beginning

172
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:24.440
of this issue, and that has
to do with the after effects of the

173
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:30.639
Big Bang, the manner in which
our universe is expanding, which it is

174
00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:35.960
proven through Doppler shifts and light rays
and whatnots yeah, get all up in

175
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:41.720
there, yeah, um yeah.
Yeah. The problem is is that in

176
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:46.080
order for our universe to be expanding
in the manner that it is, at

177
00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:52.080
the rate that it is, then
physicists can, and with pretty fair accuracy,

178
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:54.279
say, okay, well, then
the universe has to have the following

179
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:58.080
properties. It has to have this
much energy, it has to have this

180
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:04.919
much mass in order to fit our
observed um model of yeah, how things

181
00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:11.000
work. And the problem with that
is is that it's like a bowl of

182
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:15.879
Captain crunch with crunch berries, and
it's all we're seeing is captain is the

183
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:22.759
crunch berries. We where's the Captain? The matter that we see that we

184
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:27.919
are very accustomed with, it turns
out, is only four point nine percent

185
00:16:29.720 --> 00:16:36.360
of the uh matter in the universe. Is matter is what they call barrionic

186
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:38.720
matter. Don't worry, We won't
come around too, baby, don't you

187
00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:44.360
worry. Um now, I think
I think that was very white. That

188
00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:56.519
was very white matter. Can't get
enough of a bow songs, bab uh

189
00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:59.919
so, no boy, it's it's
this is a tough thing to jump in

190
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.639
to. Please feel free to fish
me out, tag me out, Flora,

191
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:04.599
let me let me take you out
here then real? Okay, in

192
00:17:04.640 --> 00:17:11.440
a general sum summer is they afraid
to use my crunch berries analogy? It

193
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:18.160
was really brilliant. Dark matter is
matter in galaxies and clusters and possibly between

194
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:26.400
clusters that cannot be observed directly but
can be detected by its gravitational field.

195
00:17:27.519 --> 00:17:33.599
That's what it basically boils down to. It's otherwise undetectable stuff in space that

196
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:37.559
causes objects to behave in a way
they conventionally shouldn't. It's like in those

197
00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:41.200
movies where there's an invisible manner,
a ghost in a crowded room, and

198
00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:44.680
you can't see the ghost, but
you see all the people getting pushed out

199
00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:48.519
of the way. Right. That's
dark matter. Yeah, yeah, and

200
00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:53.759
all the ghosts are made of dark
matter. All dark matter is made of

201
00:17:53.799 --> 00:18:00.079
ghosts. The objects that that I
mentioned, the object that behave in a

202
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:04.880
strange way, are stars and galaxies, big stuff, big scale stuff,

203
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:10.759
and the way they behave is a
very specific way. But we'll get to

204
00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:15.359
that in just a minute. I'm
not saying that dark matter causes things to

205
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:18.200
blink in and out of existence,
or if shoot a laser beam from their

206
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.720
sun eye. Yeah, if anything, the thing that makes dark matter so

207
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.559
unique is that it refuses to play
ball. It's yeah, it's boring.

208
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:30.319
It doesn't interact, it doesn't do
anything. It just is And it's a

209
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:36.759
loaner. It's the James Dean of
cosmological phenomena exactly. But it doesn't even

210
00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:41.519
smoke cigarettes and make them look cool. It that's all right, it doesn't

211
00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:47.000
have to do anything for maybe interesting. Um. Now, a few folks

212
00:18:47.200 --> 00:18:52.039
historically have postulated um the idea of
dark matter. It was the first one.

213
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:57.359
The first was a yawn or yean
looks like jan if you thought it

214
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:03.200
was a girl, you're roll are
you dumb? Bastard? Jean or Dutch

215
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:07.319
astronomer um. And and this is
the this is a thing that can happen

216
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:12.279
in science. He had the right
idea at the wrong time to explain the

217
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:18.359
wrong phenomenon. He had bad data
and he was like, well, what

218
00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:22.920
if there was just a bunch of
matter we can't see He didn't. Well,

219
00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:26.720
he technically was the first one to
propose dark matter. He didn't didn't

220
00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:30.799
he just didn't um. And then
you get the other side of the coin

221
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:40.839
tails just uh seven years later,
Horace Babcock, he notices problems with galaxy

222
00:19:40.920 --> 00:19:45.759
rotational curves, the way other galaxies
moved, and so he saw this is

223
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:52.480
an effective of dark matter. UM
these huge massive gravitational effects, but he

224
00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:56.680
did not reach for dark matter as
an explanation. I actually UM invented dark

225
00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:03.720
matter. I'm a vampire who's really
into you know, astronomy. I'll do

226
00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:07.160
you. I'll do you one better. Here. Just a year after old

227
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:14.200
Ort was on the scene, there
was a UM, an old Swiss bastard

228
00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:22.640
by the name of Fritz ob Yeah, old Swiss bastard Fritz Zwicky in nineteen

229
00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:29.519
thirty three. Uh and and by
all accounts, Zwicky was like the biggest,

230
00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:33.440
loudest, meanest old man on the
front porch that you've ever met.

231
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:41.039
Nice. I mean he's he is
literally yelling at other astronomers to get off

232
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:47.640
his front yard. It's funny like
that. It's literally part of his His

233
00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:51.920
bio was how how much of a
bastard he was. But he was a

234
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:57.279
very good astronomer, and apparently um
his research inferred the existence of unseen matter,

235
00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:04.680
which he hauled dunkla materia, which
translates as dark knocking donuts. Oh,

236
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:15.559
I'm just hungry. Oh God,
choose better. No, we don't

237
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:22.319
want a sponsorship from U. Don't
don't let says Donut Saint Dinner after school

238
00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:33.240
special sound. Yeah, that's some
real learning. Here's your T shirt,

239
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:38.720
Donut Saint Dinner, don't think dinner. Uh so so um so so.

240
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:42.759
Fritz Zwicky, he put that out
there, put it out there pretty early,

241
00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:49.000
and he's kind of credited with the
the beginnings of dark matter even like

242
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:52.480
you said, though first Babcock didn't
reach for the dark matter when he saw

243
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:59.039
the effects, right. And then
the lady who gets the uh the birthday

244
00:21:59.039 --> 00:22:03.599
cake, the clothes spot. Yeah, to the bullpen exactly, bringing all

245
00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:11.680
the basement home. Very Ruben left
hander and a Lancaster Virginia really, let's

246
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:18.759
fly will be good? Twenty one
saves in triple A. That's right.

247
00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:22.440
Brought her up to the big show
just two months ago, and she's really

248
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:29.720
made an impact in the scientific community. Very Ruben noticed the galaxy rotation curves.

249
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:33.839
And if that's not enough, why
doesn't she put a little cream in

250
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:38.480
your coffee with some gravitational lensing.
Oh? Now, gravitational lensing is this

251
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:45.279
really cool thing that happens because although
light is free and wild, it can

252
00:22:45.319 --> 00:22:51.680
be bent by an intense gravity field. Um. For example, there is

253
00:22:51.759 --> 00:22:57.640
a lot of discussion about putting a
oh, a telescope, but the thought

254
00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:03.319
that sentence ended. There's a lot
of discussion about putting I love it.

255
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:10.240
Here's how it relates to cosmology.
Lots of people have been telling me to

256
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:15.119
stop having donuts and pudding for dinner
and shut up. Then I get really

257
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:23.440
tired of my chest hurts. Um
no about putting and a telescope in space

258
00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:29.319
between Earth and the Sun at the
point which because all of the light behind

259
00:23:29.359 --> 00:23:33.079
the Sun, all of the stars
that emit that light, it gets bent

260
00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:37.839
around the Sun and there's a focal
point, and you could put an extraordinary

261
00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:41.279
telescope there and collect an amazing amount
of data from it. Because this the

262
00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:45.519
Sun acts like a lens. It
focuses all the light to a point,

263
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:51.480
and so everything that has a significant
mask can bend light. Black holes do

264
00:23:51.559 --> 00:23:55.680
it, Suns do it. I
mean stars do it. Galaxies do it

265
00:23:56.000 --> 00:24:00.279
as a general rule, and dark
matter does it. That's an they're one

266
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:03.599
of those secondary effects. Is this
gravitational lensing. Oh yeah, we we'll

267
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:08.279
touch on that a little bit.
A little later on Vera was hopping and

268
00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:14.440
bopping in the sixties and seventies with
this and U Sometimes she wore skirts that

269
00:24:14.480 --> 00:24:18.279
were as many as half an inch
above her knees and she did not care.

270
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:26.160
No, she was a hippi beating
scientist. Cosmologists continue to search for

271
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:32.720
exactly what this is. Yeah,
even today now, like we said,

272
00:24:32.920 --> 00:24:37.799
dark matter came out of the observations
of Zwicki and Orton and all those others,

273
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:42.000
and they and Zwicky in particular,
since he hasn't got enough play as

274
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:47.960
an old bastard. Um, we're
gonna get sued by the estate of Zwicki.

275
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:52.720
Whudo's not a planet. Yeah,
that's right, get it out of

276
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:57.400
here, dry fuss damn it,
Come on it. Because Zwicky found something

277
00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:03.759
odd in his examination of the Coma
galaxy cluster. He pointed his telescope up,

278
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:07.680
looked at this one certain galaxy cluster, and uh I wrote down a

279
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:12.640
bunch of stuff for it. By
chance in austrian Um, astronomer think that

280
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:18.759
he had his telescope misaligned and said
it's it's not their Coma. No,

281
00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:25.359
didn't read that, Oh, they
didn't have them burned it. But I

282
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:29.680
think somebody did come up to him
oh, and was like, oh,

283
00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:33.720
what did they do? What did
they what did this unnamed person that history

284
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:37.559
was neglected in the in the but
they did they did make a point of

285
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:41.839
writing down the rest of the interaction. How did that interaction go? Flora,

286
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.440
He's just trying to find about it
out about Zwicki's family, So he

287
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:52.400
was just like, who's your dad? Was like good? Over here,

288
00:25:53.880 --> 00:26:03.920
I forgot that part. Who's good? So he's looking at the coma cluster

289
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:10.079
and the number that he got from
adding up the mass of the stars in

290
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:15.680
the galaxy should have matched the number
he got by calculating the velocity of the

291
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:18.960
galaxy how fast it was spinning,
because if you know one, you should

292
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:25.440
be able to determine the other.
They didn't. What sorry, bro.

293
00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:33.039
In fact, the velocity was two
hundred times higher than the observable mass he

294
00:26:33.119 --> 00:26:38.960
calculated, Big fat red flag.
It's right now. How fast gravitationally trapped

295
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:45.400
objects in a system move is related
to the mass of the system. Yep.

296
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:48.519
And that's just speed related to mass. Keep that in mind. The

297
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:52.319
more mass you have, and even
the closer the objects are to each other,

298
00:26:53.519 --> 00:26:56.680
faster you go wait, wait,
let me see if I can do

299
00:26:56.759 --> 00:27:00.519
this. The gravitational attraction between two
bodies directly proportional to the product of their

300
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:07.400
masses and inversely proportionate to the square
root of the distance between them. Boom,

301
00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:18.839
Spider's delight. What was that from? That is Newton's law of universal

302
00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:23.200
gravitation of the Hubbard So yes,
not only does the mass of the two

303
00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:30.200
items matter, but the distance between
them. And again, the more the

304
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:36.640
closer, the faster. Yep,
it's like me dancing with you. I'm

305
00:27:36.720 --> 00:27:42.279
still lonely. You're a lone star
floating out. I won't to be a

306
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:52.119
binary system with irregularities in my hour. Bad Stars near the center of a

307
00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:59.160
galaxy should be moving faster than ones
on the outskirts of the galaxy. I

308
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:03.839
mean, according to Newton's law.
Yep, every every figure skater knows that

309
00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:08.839
maneuver pull your arms in you go
faster, or every jagbag on a office

310
00:28:08.920 --> 00:28:15.119
chair. That's probably a farmer universal
example. However, it seemed the stars

311
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:19.319
on the outskirts of the galaxy,
we're orbiting at the same speed as the

312
00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:26.640
ones close in. What the faster
things orbit, the more gravitational attraction they

313
00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:37.200
need to hold together and not go
flying off, and we're all the comets

314
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:44.880
going to play bas Sorry if you
if you think of holding hands with with

315
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:48.400
somebody else and then just spinning between
them between you, you know how you

316
00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:52.640
how you just like you try not
to move your feet too much, but

317
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:57.359
you just sort of like spin,
yeah right, rand that dream clover daisies

318
00:28:57.440 --> 00:29:03.079
whatever. And the faster you go, the more you're you're likely to pull

319
00:29:03.119 --> 00:29:07.400
apart yep, or the more that
force is kind of tearing you apart,

320
00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:12.960
well, society, if you were
fatter, it'd take more force, yeah,

321
00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:17.680
right, I mean the more mass
you add to it, the faster

322
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:21.480
you'll go. And then but then
the more gravity would would hold you together

323
00:29:21.519 --> 00:29:26.000
too, right, Yeah, you're
getting into like questions of like angular momentum

324
00:29:26.039 --> 00:29:30.359
and some tripitals. That's true.
That's not the greatest example. Yeah,

325
00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:37.039
but really you're talking to Captain crunch
over here. Who Yeah, the point

326
00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:41.839
The point is more gravity comes from
more mass and yeah yeah, yeah.

327
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:45.519
What this boils down to is that
there was not enough visible stuff to hold

328
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:48.559
these galaxies together going at that space. Yeah, for the speed they were

329
00:29:48.559 --> 00:29:52.599
going, they should have flown apart, right, like Napoleon. It made

330
00:29:52.640 --> 00:30:02.319
no sense what Napoleon flown apart?
Okay, did I mentioned that we're not

331
00:30:02.440 --> 00:30:06.039
staying sober for this one. Apparently
have got some catching up to do.

332
00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:11.039
Anyways, this this made no sense. The gravity not yep, not being

333
00:30:11.119 --> 00:30:15.119
there, the mass not being there, the gravity, the gravity was there,

334
00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:18.400
the mass wasn't there. Something else
was creating gravity to move them that

335
00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:26.160
fast. That's what everybody had to
reconcile. So Zwicky proposed the idea of

336
00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:30.519
the missing mass existing, just unable
to be seen. And keep in mind,

337
00:30:30.599 --> 00:30:36.559
this was only about eleven years or
so after scientists began to agree that

338
00:30:37.559 --> 00:30:41.160
our galaxy wasn't the only galaxy in
existence, right, Yeah, this is

339
00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:47.119
still early days. And as we
said before, dark matter is not to

340
00:30:47.160 --> 00:30:51.119
be confused with dark energy. We
may not have said there was not to

341
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:55.119
be confused, but we mentioned dark
energy. Yep. Scientists have observed the

342
00:30:55.240 --> 00:31:00.279
universe is expanding, we did say
that, and galaxies are moving away from

343
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:04.759
each other, and some unknown force
is driving this acceleration of expansion yep,

344
00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:10.960
And that is what they've termed dark
energy. Yeah, not the same thing

345
00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:14.279
as dark matter. No, no, no, it's not not the same

346
00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:18.680
thing, however. Fun In fact, if you just had all the dark

347
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:23.039
matter and the dark energy of the
universe, then you would just have ninety

348
00:31:23.079 --> 00:31:27.400
five point one percent of the entire
contents of the universe. That's all you

349
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:30.880
have. That's all that you can
stick in your pocket. That's it.

350
00:31:32.519 --> 00:31:37.119
Yeah, Yeah, that's right.
We live in a in a portion of

351
00:31:37.160 --> 00:31:41.039
the universe that is extraordinarily rare.
Yeah, we're the thing, but they're

352
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:48.160
the four point nine percent. Feel
rich on that, right, Yeah,

353
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:51.680
it's it's believed that sixty eight percent
of the universe is made up of dark

354
00:31:51.839 --> 00:31:57.839
energy, twenty seven percent of dark
matter and observable matter or what's called baryonic

355
00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:01.920
matter I counts from you know,
just under five percent of the universe.

356
00:32:02.599 --> 00:32:07.359
Yep, crazy balls. Yeah,
it just feels special, toll. Yeah,

357
00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:12.799
and the special the important thing about
this. Uh and maybe this is

358
00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:15.680
a good time to get into it. We keep saying baryonic matter. Sure,

359
00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:21.359
um, baryons are an entire classification
of sum a topic particles. They're

360
00:32:21.359 --> 00:32:25.519
the legos from which I'm listening,
that's right, Yeah, I have your

361
00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:30.759
attention, kids. They're they're the
the the tiny, little one stack legos

362
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:36.200
from which larger legos are built.
They're the They're made up of quarks,

363
00:32:36.559 --> 00:32:42.200
quarks being this very super tiny sum
atomic particle. You put some quarks together,

364
00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:45.880
and there's different varieties of quarks.
There's up down, top strange light.

365
00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:52.960
Yeah, you put in draft,
it's right, recipe ice ice quark,

366
00:32:53.079 --> 00:33:04.119
dry quark, IPA, oh god, october quark, pumpkin quark,

367
00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:10.480
and some are shandy. Anyway,
the quarks combined to make some atomic particles

368
00:33:10.519 --> 00:33:15.960
like protons and neutrons, which form
the nucleus of an atom around which electrons

369
00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:22.680
flow orbit and now boom, you
got yourself a stew. You've got particles

370
00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:27.440
that interact with each other. They
swap electrons, they emit light, they

371
00:33:27.480 --> 00:33:30.079
absorb light, they do things right, and because of the properties of the

372
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:36.039
quarks that make them what they suspect. One of the suspected theories is that

373
00:33:36.599 --> 00:33:39.680
these there's this other kind of matter, non baryonic matter, that's made up

374
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:46.200
either of a very weird collection of
quarks that we consider to be highly unstable,

375
00:33:46.599 --> 00:33:52.039
and so we didn't expect them to
form the Spanish Inquisition. Yeah,

376
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:57.440
exactly, they were. They were
not seen as terribly likely, but given

377
00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:00.440
the observable data. Either it is
quarks that were from filiar with subatomic partles

378
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:05.240
that were that we know and have
identified that are combining in a way that

379
00:34:05.279 --> 00:34:09.239
we're not familiar with, or I
mean or anything. This kind of will

380
00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:14.440
get into yeah, what could be
just about and we'll absolutely get into that.

381
00:34:14.719 --> 00:34:17.119
Um. But it's important to understand
this question of quarks now because it's

382
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:21.280
going to come up a few more
times. And why we keep saying baryonic

383
00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:24.800
matter and um, it's it's just
it's such a cool thing too, because

384
00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:30.559
it's you never you don't think that
the variety of quarks that go into making

385
00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:35.440
a proton or a neutron matters.
You know, you're like, well,

386
00:34:35.480 --> 00:34:39.320
I guess somebody, somebody cares,
But it matters hugely, and the quest

387
00:34:43.239 --> 00:34:47.320
Um. Here's another fun example though, Um, A nucleus, sorry nucleus,

388
00:34:47.320 --> 00:34:54.880
A neutron made up of quarks super
unstable. However, in an atomic

389
00:34:54.960 --> 00:35:00.079
nucleus it is stabilized by the proton
and the electron, and so there there

390
00:35:00.199 --> 00:35:06.159
is precedent even in in the the
matter that that constitutes all of us and

391
00:35:06.199 --> 00:35:10.639
everything we're familiar with, for something
that on paper shouldn't exist that often it's

392
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:19.599
it's an unstable thing finding a way
to stabilize itself. Life finds a way.

393
00:35:21.079 --> 00:35:25.800
So and now everybody take a sip. That's right. Let that sink

394
00:35:25.840 --> 00:35:30.599
in a little bit. Boosh.
We should we should take little little breaks

395
00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:37.679
because this this is a rich pack. He's shoving our hobo faces. Man,

396
00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:44.719
it's like it's like eating a bowl
of fluff. It's like it's like

397
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:51.400
the time that Tabitha, it's the
deconstructed smore for the record, quote unquote,

398
00:35:51.400 --> 00:35:55.559
Tabitha kept eating that bowl. After
we were done recording. I heard

399
00:35:55.599 --> 00:36:00.440
it was all right. She told
me to tell you to shut up.

400
00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:07.159
It was good. One one more
thing, one more number. Here in

401
00:36:07.199 --> 00:36:13.360
the milky way that our galaxy,
not our solar system, our galaxy,

402
00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:16.079
the whole, the whole deal.
There is twenty times more dark matter than

403
00:36:16.159 --> 00:36:25.079
bariotic matter. Bam bam but lamb
dedicating this one to dark matter. Dark

404
00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:34.119
matter also unique because it does not
interact with light slash electromagnetic radiation. Yep.

405
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:40.039
It neither absorbs nor reflects light.
And that is huge yep, because

406
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:46.599
every other type of matter that we
know of does somehow or another. That's

407
00:36:46.599 --> 00:36:52.159
the thing you almost think that,
Oh, in our realm of experience,

408
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:53.760
the things that don't interact with light
just reflect it and move on with their

409
00:36:53.840 --> 00:37:00.800
day. But that's an interaction,
you smug son of a bitch. You

410
00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:06.679
didn't know everything. Everyone on the
planet scientific community, who definitely are listening

411
00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:09.920
to this, oh yeah, to
their compiled right now. I hope that

412
00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:14.559
no scientist is listening to this,
because man, we might go like we

413
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:17.280
might have to do a month in
the penalty box. Yeah, hello,

414
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:27.039
ohoi to blur. Oh Jesus,
I just yell what I'm in there?

415
00:37:27.119 --> 00:37:31.880
Yeah, So how do we even
know that it exists? Right? That's

416
00:37:32.719 --> 00:37:37.079
that's what we're aiming for on the
targets, right because one of the federal

417
00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:40.119
government told me, I mean,
besides the numbers of velocity and mass being

418
00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:45.360
irreconcilable. Ye, uh, there
is another way to observe the presence of

419
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:51.519
dark matter, and you've already mentioned
another way to tell is the gravitational LENSINGA

420
00:37:52.559 --> 00:37:55.679
let's see if there's a if there's
another way to to visualize this. When

421
00:37:55.719 --> 00:38:00.519
you look at a bowl of Captain
crunch, when you look at a distant

422
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:06.000
star, the light's coming right at
you, but light that would that's going

423
00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:08.159
off in a different direction. Let's
say, you know, you would never

424
00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:13.320
see it directly, and since it's
not coming at you directly, you would

425
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:15.440
never see it from the side either. You just you wouldn't see that light.

426
00:38:15.840 --> 00:38:20.920
Well, that light is then bent
towards you, and you do see

427
00:38:20.960 --> 00:38:25.239
it. So it's almost like if
you take a pumpkin. Oh my god,

428
00:38:25.400 --> 00:38:30.559
ladies and gentlemen, the universal pumpkin
has returned to the podcast. Explained

429
00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:34.760
some signs with a pumpkin. If
you take a pumpkin, you set it

430
00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:37.320
on a pedestal, and you're looking
straight at the pumpkin, Well, you

431
00:38:37.400 --> 00:38:42.239
stick a spear in the top of
it. He has the side of the

432
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:45.800
pumpkin. You can't see the tip
of the spear. Well, let's see,

433
00:38:45.880 --> 00:38:47.199
you can't see the end of the
spear because the tip's probably going in

434
00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:50.519
the pumpkin. Can't see the tip
of the spause it's in the pumpkin,

435
00:38:50.599 --> 00:38:52.639
dude, But you can't see the
end of the spear because it's pointed up

436
00:38:52.639 --> 00:38:57.920
at the ceiling. Okay, well, something is between you and the pumpkin

437
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:04.480
that has enough gravitational mass. The
spear actually bends downwards and you do see

438
00:39:04.519 --> 00:39:08.199
the end of it. And this
is one of the ways that scientists can

439
00:39:08.199 --> 00:39:15.079
tell there is something out there that
causes the light rays to bend like this.

440
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:19.000
This spear is the light ray in
this analogy. I've got, I've

441
00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:22.599
got, I've got a better pumpkin
analogy for you. Okay, Imagine you've

442
00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:29.360
got a pumpkin and that's on a
pedestal, and exactly the pumpkin is exactly

443
00:39:29.599 --> 00:39:34.880
between you and another guy thirty ft
you're each thirty feet away from the pumpkin,

444
00:39:34.920 --> 00:39:37.960
but you can't see each other pumpkins
in the way. That guy has

445
00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:42.559
got a bow and arrow, and
now if he shoots straight at you,

446
00:39:42.719 --> 00:39:45.679
he's just going to hit the pumpkin. The pumpkin is a star. But

447
00:39:46.199 --> 00:39:52.360
this pumpkin's pretty massive. If he
aims just to the side of the pumpkin.

448
00:39:52.880 --> 00:39:55.320
Now, if the arrow went straight, he'd miss me. It would

449
00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:59.880
fly off to the side and it
would never hit me. But this pump

450
00:40:00.039 --> 00:40:06.039
and is so massive that it actually
is able to pull on the iron steel

451
00:40:06.119 --> 00:40:10.239
tip of the arrow as it passes
the pumpkin and pulls it ever so slightly

452
00:40:10.360 --> 00:40:15.119
back, and so that arrow gets
pulled in by the attraction of the pumpkin

453
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:21.280
and still hits me. That's gravitational
lensing, Okay, I mean mine was

454
00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:24.880
in mine. The pumpkin was the
guy and the arrow. The spear was

455
00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:28.840
the arrow. I think I'm just
having a hard time, like this is

456
00:40:28.840 --> 00:40:31.079
a this is a complex and it's
a hard time. It's hard to make

457
00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:37.320
an audio. Yours is better,
obviously, I don't think so. I

458
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:39.840
just I'm bad at visualized stuff.
When you describe, you know, like

459
00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:42.880
that's what I'm saying, Like,
oh, and I'm describing it. I

460
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:45.960
see it in my head and it
makes sense. Yeah, you like,

461
00:40:45.159 --> 00:40:51.440
Okay, in my scenario, I
don't I didn't pick anything. I just

462
00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:53.880
had dark matter as this who knows
what in between me and the pumpkin.

463
00:40:53.920 --> 00:40:59.199
The pumpkin was the star that was
emanating light, right, and and the

464
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:02.719
spear was the ray of light that
then got bent to where you could see

465
00:41:02.719 --> 00:41:07.760
it. Yours is better, though, because the pumpkin is dark matter,

466
00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:13.119
and then somebody shooting an arrow.
The arrow is the light the light gets

467
00:41:13.199 --> 00:41:16.880
if he's shooting to the side of
the pumpkin, not at the pumpkin shoots

468
00:41:16.920 --> 00:41:21.760
to the side of it, it
gets bent by the huge gravitational pull and

469
00:41:21.880 --> 00:41:25.119
comes in to hit me. Yes, it otherwise wouldn't hit at all.

470
00:41:25.599 --> 00:41:29.719
I'm just glad that we both had
Pumpkin ideas well. It is hard to

471
00:41:30.119 --> 00:41:35.920
visualize through through the medium of podcast, but we're not gonna stop. Yeah,

472
00:41:36.199 --> 00:41:38.199
just try try that and we'll come
back to Pumpkins later and I'll make

473
00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:43.880
sure it about him Thanksgiving time.
Of course, we're coming back at p

474
00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:49.199
And then what's causing the light to
get bent? That's what is theorized as

475
00:41:49.360 --> 00:41:54.000
as being the dark matter, because
otherwise there shouldn't be anything there. We

476
00:41:54.000 --> 00:41:59.400
shouldn't. There's a lot of lensing
going on with no stars present, with

477
00:41:59.519 --> 00:42:05.559
no observable source of mass to bend
that light. And this is uh coming

478
00:42:05.639 --> 00:42:10.360
straight from the horse's mouth, mister
Einstein. And you would be surprised how

479
00:42:10.559 --> 00:42:17.199
sensitive our instruments are and how often
gravitational lensing is used as a tool.

480
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:24.559
We use gravitational lensing to determine how
many planets the Sun has the speed.

481
00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:28.320
I mean, we use it for
so many things. We actually are very

482
00:42:28.760 --> 00:42:35.119
very sophisticated with determining curvature of light
in space. It's one of the it's

483
00:42:35.119 --> 00:42:38.079
one of our best tools for learning
about for a number of reasons. And

484
00:42:38.239 --> 00:42:45.159
Einstein was the first one right to
put forward the idea that gravity would affect

485
00:42:45.599 --> 00:42:49.880
the path of light. Yes,
and because and that's that's that's the big

486
00:42:49.920 --> 00:42:53.280
thing. That's the equals mc squared. When you link energy to mass,

487
00:42:54.000 --> 00:42:58.840
it means that that's a two way
street, that that things that affect energy

488
00:42:58.880 --> 00:43:01.599
can affect mass, things that mask
and affect energy, and you you make

489
00:43:01.639 --> 00:43:07.199
them both subservient to gravity. Yeah. I just saw Interstellar. I haven't

490
00:43:07.199 --> 00:43:10.280
seen it. The other night I
heard that, Um they finally put the

491
00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:16.239
dinobots in there. They did,
Thank god. I really liked it.

492
00:43:16.480 --> 00:43:22.000
I really enjoyed it. It's a
long movie, but I personally was was

493
00:43:22.119 --> 00:43:24.719
entertained the whole way through. There
was a I'm not gonna tell you what

494
00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:30.000
happens, but don't it's part and
parcel with what we're talking about in terms

495
00:43:30.039 --> 00:43:37.000
of gravity, because there's a hole
in the bucket deer lift pudding. There's

496
00:43:37.039 --> 00:43:44.480
a whole concept of gravity bending space
time, which is what Einstein yea put

497
00:43:44.559 --> 00:43:50.519
forward, and gravity can slow time
down. That's how powerful gravity is.

498
00:43:50.519 --> 00:43:55.920
Not only can it bend light,
but the more massive an object the slower

499
00:43:57.280 --> 00:44:01.719
time goes, so that in in
the movie this is this is one thing.

500
00:44:01.719 --> 00:44:05.320
I don't think this will spoil anything
for you. But they land on

501
00:44:05.360 --> 00:44:12.760
a huge planet and the gravity,
you know, is many times what Earth's

502
00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:15.000
is, or at least you know
it's it's a percentage higher than what Earth

503
00:44:15.159 --> 00:44:20.320
is. And on the planet.
When they're on the planet, an hour

504
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:27.960
equals seven years in regular time,
regularly perceived time. So if they stay

505
00:44:27.960 --> 00:44:30.719
an hour on this planet, seven
years will have elapsed. In the spaceship

506
00:44:30.760 --> 00:44:39.079
that's orbiting the plant planet dog year
in the dog Star. Serious anyways,

507
00:44:39.599 --> 00:44:44.159
which crazy, that's crazy, and
that happens on our I mean, okay,

508
00:44:44.679 --> 00:44:47.079
I have to say this. That
is a gross exaggeration. That kind

509
00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:53.920
of gravity would collapse people into subatomic
dust. But but like even on our

510
00:44:53.920 --> 00:45:00.400
own planet, people who live at
sea level, like they actually time slower

511
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:05.000
for them than people who live at
elevation. Um, you it's it's obviously

512
00:45:05.159 --> 00:45:07.760
tiny fractions of a second. Yeah, they put an atomic clock on on

513
00:45:07.800 --> 00:45:13.519
an orbiting satellite, right and determine
yep, Yeah, they've confirmed it.

514
00:45:13.559 --> 00:45:20.320
And there's there's no shortage of um. Classic hind Line style science fiction that

515
00:45:20.360 --> 00:45:23.519
deals with this problem that you leave
Earth, you're traveling close to the speed

516
00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:29.480
of light, which requires you to
um approach infinite mass as you get closer

517
00:45:29.519 --> 00:45:34.480
to the speed of light, and
so time for you slows down and for

518
00:45:34.519 --> 00:45:37.840
the rest of the world. So
you you you go on your your light

519
00:45:37.880 --> 00:45:39.880
speed trip for a year and you
come back in a hundred years have passed

520
00:45:39.880 --> 00:45:44.239
on Earth. That's like, that's
like a common you know, trope with

521
00:45:44.800 --> 00:45:46.840
um classic science fiction, and people
still talk about it because at the time

522
00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:50.039
it was a new like, oh
my gosh, that's a real thing.

523
00:45:50.400 --> 00:45:55.679
That time is as also gravitationally variable, it can be effected, yeah,

524
00:45:55.760 --> 00:46:00.199
which you know, it blows my
mind because it's like for us, time

525
00:46:00.320 --> 00:46:07.960
is one thing that's constant and ever
marching forward towards Yeah. Yeah, I

526
00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:12.000
don't know, it's it's nuts to
to think about it that way, but

527
00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:14.960
it has that has a lot to
do with with what we're talking about as

528
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:20.320
well. And and this dark matter
has this kind of effect. So I

529
00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:23.119
mean, so it would you think
that time would slow down if you go

530
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:28.000
through a field of dark matter.
No, it's it's a it's a different

531
00:46:28.440 --> 00:46:31.960
it's it's not quite as as direct
as that. And again all time is

532
00:46:32.000 --> 00:46:38.440
relative, so it's it's still your
the time you experience relative to what someone

533
00:46:38.480 --> 00:46:43.159
else experiences. Yeah, um,
it's not that that. It's not like

534
00:46:43.199 --> 00:46:49.639
the people who are at approaching light
speed are talking all slowly to them,

535
00:46:49.760 --> 00:46:54.280
time is passing totally normally to them. It's relative to the other things around

536
00:46:54.360 --> 00:47:00.480
them. So you could go through
And again, that is an extraordinary amount

537
00:47:00.480 --> 00:47:04.639
of mass. When we talk about
gravitational lensing, you're talking about enough dark

538
00:47:04.719 --> 00:47:09.920
matter, and it's disparate theoretically,
there's a few different theories about how um.

539
00:47:09.960 --> 00:47:13.360
And we'll get to that because I've
got some some numbers on on that.

540
00:47:13.880 --> 00:47:15.920
How you know, how big a
chunk could you bump into? Those

541
00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:21.719
kind of questions, But this is
on a on a galaxy scale. Back,

542
00:47:22.039 --> 00:47:25.880
there's there's an arm extending hundreds of
thousands of light years that's made up

543
00:47:25.920 --> 00:47:30.719
of dark matter, and that in
total has enough matter to bend light to

544
00:47:30.719 --> 00:47:37.519
to achieve these these effects of of
a hypermassive item um. So it's it's

545
00:47:37.559 --> 00:47:39.880
not something you run into. And
we may have talked about some black holes

546
00:47:40.039 --> 00:47:43.760
or time or two, but black
holes, did we do an upside on

547
00:47:43.800 --> 00:47:45.280
that? How do I time travel? Yeah, but I think if I

548
00:47:45.320 --> 00:47:49.239
feel like we've talked about at this
at one point where if you fall into

549
00:47:49.239 --> 00:47:52.679
a black hole where there's a singularity
where the gravity well becomes infinite um,

550
00:47:53.360 --> 00:47:59.519
that if you were transmitting as you
went in, you would to people outside

551
00:47:59.519 --> 00:48:01.800
of that, it would sound like
you are transmitting forever, like they would

552
00:48:01.880 --> 00:48:07.480
hear you scream for eternity. Yeah, that's true. That's the good thing.

553
00:48:08.079 --> 00:48:10.199
But you know, like these when
you get into that's one of the

554
00:48:10.280 --> 00:48:15.079
really fun and interesting things. And
it's one of the reasons why Einstein had

555
00:48:15.119 --> 00:48:22.039
to create a theory of gravity,
because Newtonian gravity stopped. It didn't describe

556
00:48:22.119 --> 00:48:30.199
these amazing, huge concepts. It
breaks down when you get to these these

557
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:34.599
giant orders of magnitude. Also it
breaks down when you get into these very

558
00:48:34.599 --> 00:48:39.199
tiny orders of magnitude, and Einstein
and gravity also breaks down. So that's

559
00:48:39.239 --> 00:48:44.280
why you've got quantum mechanics that explains
the very tiny blah blah blah. But

560
00:48:44.800 --> 00:48:49.440
you would be having to pull some
very serious other maneuvers for you to temporarily

561
00:48:49.599 --> 00:48:52.920
notice the gravity distortion from dark matter. I see, Okay, I bet

562
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:57.119
you're wondering how we determine dark energy
at this point, man, I am

563
00:48:57.679 --> 00:49:00.800
so hard. You mentioned it earlier, but um, it's called red shift.

564
00:49:01.079 --> 00:49:05.559
Yeah, yeah, And this is
a fairly new concept. Nobel Prize

565
00:49:05.559 --> 00:49:08.599
winning concept. The speed of a
galaxy moving away from the observer can be

566
00:49:08.679 --> 00:49:15.039
determined by observing how it's light changes
color. The faster it moves, the

567
00:49:15.079 --> 00:49:20.039
redder it gets. Yeah, items
moving away from you are red shifted.

568
00:49:20.079 --> 00:49:27.039
Items moving towards you are blue shifted. That's Doppler effect to it's the it's

569
00:49:27.039 --> 00:49:32.159
the reason why a car horn changes
sounds. It goes as it approaches you.

570
00:49:32.760 --> 00:49:38.800
Every time the horn emits a sound
wave, the actual horn itself has

571
00:49:38.840 --> 00:49:43.840
moved a little bit further, so
it's compressing the sound wave, blue shifting

572
00:49:43.880 --> 00:49:47.920
it into a higher frequency. And
that when it passes you, it's the

573
00:49:47.960 --> 00:49:52.800
horn the emitter is leaving you.
So it's actually every time that it emits

574
00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:57.159
another sound wave, it's a little
bit further than it normally would, so

575
00:49:57.360 --> 00:50:00.360
it's elongated. It's a red shifted. Yeah. The wave length, the

576
00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:04.480
sound wavelength gets longer and longer,
and that makes the sound lower and lower.

577
00:50:04.880 --> 00:50:08.119
Yep, I mean not not to
it's not like men but you hear

578
00:50:08.159 --> 00:50:14.639
it. You hear it all the
time, train whistles, things like that.

579
00:50:14.639 --> 00:50:17.280
That is Doppler effect. That's red
and blue shifting, although on an

580
00:50:17.280 --> 00:50:22.400
acoustic scale, right, And this
works for galaxy movement as well, and

581
00:50:22.440 --> 00:50:27.159
it's been observed, it's been pretty
much proven. It's just that we don't

582
00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:32.679
know what this force is that's moving
the that's that's accelerating galaxies to move away,

583
00:50:32.800 --> 00:50:37.239
and that's the thing that is.
Yeah, that's when you say big

584
00:50:37.280 --> 00:50:40.039
bang, you imagine a giant water
balloon going off and everything flying out,

585
00:50:40.199 --> 00:50:45.880
but but slowing as it goes out
from this huge ancient explosion. But our

586
00:50:46.000 --> 00:50:52.719
universe is accelerating, right, It's
going faster, it's exploding harder. And

587
00:50:52.800 --> 00:50:57.800
so obviously in order for something to
accelerate, you need to have something driving

588
00:50:57.800 --> 00:51:01.280
it. What is the what is
the energy driving at So that's what's termed

589
00:51:01.519 --> 00:51:05.599
dark energy. And that's probably about
all we'll say about that. Let's get

590
00:51:05.639 --> 00:51:08.800
into some explanations of what dark matter
is. Yeah, yeah, let's start

591
00:51:08.840 --> 00:51:15.159
out with new trinos. New trinos
are elementary particles that get emitted by nuclear

592
00:51:15.199 --> 00:51:21.159
reactions. They stream at near the
speed of light. They don't interact much

593
00:51:21.159 --> 00:51:27.199
with other particles, which means they
slip through virtually everything and are occasionally they're

594
00:51:27.440 --> 00:51:32.800
very fast, very fast. They
are occasionally incorrectly accused of being faster than

595
00:51:32.920 --> 00:51:37.320
light. There was a little hullabaloo
in Europe a couple of years, real

596
00:51:37.400 --> 00:51:45.320
exciting, but wampwamp. They could
be trillions of them flying through you right

597
00:51:45.360 --> 00:51:49.559
now. Yeah, every second.
Fun fact. When I was at the

598
00:51:49.559 --> 00:51:53.039
South Pole, well you went to
the South Pole. Oh, shut up,

599
00:51:53.440 --> 00:51:59.239
you get me later. Everybody will
hear it, and I can't cut

600
00:51:59.239 --> 00:52:04.000
it out because you reference it multiple
times. Yeah, you'll get me.

601
00:52:05.960 --> 00:52:08.000
Um. Yeah. When I was
down there, there was a few really

602
00:52:08.000 --> 00:52:12.480
great experiments going on, and this
was all in service to trying to find

603
00:52:12.920 --> 00:52:15.519
the Higgs boson. And so they
had a thing called AMANDA, which is

604
00:52:15.519 --> 00:52:21.639
the Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detection Array. Wow. And it was this amazing

605
00:52:21.719 --> 00:52:27.639
thing. It was a three dimensional
um I hope so lattice that they built

606
00:52:27.719 --> 00:52:30.199
into the ice. They sunk these
huge, deep holes into the ice and

607
00:52:30.239 --> 00:52:35.800
then hung detectors like like Christmas lights
on these long lines, and then they

608
00:52:35.840 --> 00:52:38.880
filled the holes back in and so
it was this The ice was just this

609
00:52:39.000 --> 00:52:43.079
great medium to hold them. And
at the South Pole, because of the

610
00:52:43.480 --> 00:52:47.880
magnetic field of the Earth is very
weak there, it has the least distortion.

611
00:52:49.400 --> 00:52:52.320
And so that's what they were doing, is neutrino detection cool, Yeah,

612
00:52:52.400 --> 00:52:57.519
plus a lot easier to or a
lot quicker to get to absolute zero.

613
00:52:57.960 --> 00:53:00.880
Yeah, it was you know that
was the good thing is that even

614
00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:05.280
at the South Pole. Um.
Yeah, they used liquid nitrogen and liquid

615
00:53:05.360 --> 00:53:07.920
hydrogen to cool the equipment and they
had to fly that in on these big

616
00:53:07.960 --> 00:53:10.360
doors and a good friend of mine
was in charge of that, and I

617
00:53:10.360 --> 00:53:15.679
think I have a video of me
huffing a lot of liquid helium of the

618
00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:19.880
tanks. Cheese is it's you know, South Pole? What else are you

619
00:53:19.920 --> 00:53:27.199
gonna do? The problem with neutrinos
is um do they have mass? That's

620
00:53:27.239 --> 00:53:34.320
what we are trying to figure out
right now with with very delicate detection systems,

621
00:53:34.400 --> 00:53:40.000
and this the detection array, its
job was to record the interaction of

622
00:53:40.039 --> 00:53:47.360
a neutrino impacting another particle and making
the subsequent muans as a result, like

623
00:53:47.440 --> 00:53:51.239
that was I think it was muans
as a result. But yeah, that's

624
00:53:51.239 --> 00:53:54.360
what they were trying to find is
that neutrino impact, and every time they

625
00:53:54.360 --> 00:53:57.400
thought they had a hit, it
was a big deal. Like they would

626
00:53:57.440 --> 00:54:00.079
everyone would collect in the galley and
they're like, Okay, this is our

627
00:54:00.159 --> 00:54:04.039
data. Now we're gonna go over
it, and they be like, nah,

628
00:54:05.000 --> 00:54:07.719
I feel I gotta. I feel
like there's a part of me that

629
00:54:07.920 --> 00:54:10.079
while we're trying very hard to explain
this, and I know that I understand

630
00:54:10.119 --> 00:54:14.320
it, and I feel like I'm
almost certainly made mistakes explaining it. I

631
00:54:14.360 --> 00:54:17.239
feel like, man, we're gonna
get wailed on with penalty boxes. I

632
00:54:17.239 --> 00:54:22.159
feel like we should declare ourselves immune. This episode just putting. I mean,

633
00:54:22.400 --> 00:54:25.239
it's a put it out there.
It's an ig noble thought to be

634
00:54:25.320 --> 00:54:32.199
sure, but we we are definitely
delving into new territory for for blurry photos.

635
00:54:32.280 --> 00:54:36.519
That's true. You know what,
bring it, Bring it, punks,

636
00:54:36.719 --> 00:54:37.840
I'm not afraid of you. Don't. Don't bring it, Okay,

637
00:54:38.719 --> 00:54:44.639
let us try for for goodness sakes. Would you notice in the intro that

638
00:54:44.840 --> 00:54:52.159
he was being referred to Dave but
his real name is David. What is

639
00:54:52.159 --> 00:54:55.960
that all you got? Sorry?
Yeah, you know, I thought it

640
00:54:57.000 --> 00:55:00.039
would be a cool deviation from some
of the Oh I love it, this

641
00:55:00.119 --> 00:55:04.159
is this is. This is the
one of my favorites. If you guys

642
00:55:04.199 --> 00:55:09.280
like it, we can definitely do
more. There's plenty of physics. But

643
00:55:09.639 --> 00:55:15.320
anyway, keep talking. There is
not enough neutrinos out there to account for

644
00:55:15.360 --> 00:55:20.119
all the dark matter. That is
one reason why they're probably not a good

645
00:55:20.159 --> 00:55:25.840
candidate to be dark matter. Plus
they're probably too hot to even have have

646
00:55:27.000 --> 00:55:30.920
mass to to to be matter at
all. Yeah, they they would need

647
00:55:30.960 --> 00:55:36.519
to condense first. They would need
to get cooler condensed into something that was

648
00:55:36.559 --> 00:55:39.920
actually um that actually carried some weight
and had some gravity to it, which

649
00:55:40.000 --> 00:55:46.280
leads us to axions. Yeah,
which are hypothetical particles that are slow and

650
00:55:46.440 --> 00:55:52.360
cold enough. That solves the problem
of the neutrinos. Uh. And they

651
00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:55.199
rarely interact with bariotic matter. That
helps. That's a that's a point for

652
00:55:55.239 --> 00:56:00.840
them. Here's the problem. They
haven't been directly observed yet. No,

653
00:56:01.159 --> 00:56:07.000
but there are some hard working mother
hubbards in abandoned gold mines. Yeah,

654
00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:14.000
there's one in I think South Dakota, the Axion dark Matter Experiment where for

655
00:56:14.039 --> 00:56:17.320
some reason the X is capitalized.
You got to their go great drinkers.

656
00:56:17.519 --> 00:56:22.000
They do kick flips on skateboards.
They don't wear helmets. They don't care

657
00:56:22.039 --> 00:56:27.960
who they hurt, fluting themselves.
But they they've been scanning for very particular

658
00:56:28.559 --> 00:56:31.679
mass ranges. They're like, you
know, they scan nothing, how about

659
00:56:31.719 --> 00:56:36.840
now nothing? And they're they're just
about to upgrade their their rig. They've

660
00:56:36.920 --> 00:56:38.960
like much like the South Pole,
they have a problem. The colder their

661
00:56:39.000 --> 00:56:43.280
gear is, the faster it can
work. And they're they're just about to

662
00:56:43.280 --> 00:56:45.840
set up a new refrigeration system,
so they should really be able to rip

663
00:56:45.880 --> 00:56:47.280
through it. But yeah, they're
doing a lot of great work on it.

664
00:56:47.360 --> 00:56:53.000
Sweet. So axions is knocking at
the door, but we haven't let

665
00:56:53.079 --> 00:56:55.719
them in yet. That's right,
you know, house is knocking on the

666
00:56:55.760 --> 00:57:05.679
door. Who wamp wample? Now
there's two varieties. There's lat whimps WAPs

667
00:57:07.320 --> 00:57:17.400
growth good enough of your whimps,
bab weekly interacting massive particles WYMP. These

668
00:57:17.400 --> 00:57:22.039
are clouds of particles that we have
yet to explain, which do not react

669
00:57:22.159 --> 00:57:28.239
strongly to other particles, but when
they encounter each other they annihilate and give

670
00:57:28.280 --> 00:57:35.079
off a gamma raise non baryonic,
nonburionic. They're not directly observed, they've

671
00:57:35.119 --> 00:57:39.760
been hinted at in experiments, but
there's no conclusive evidence yet, but this

672
00:57:39.800 --> 00:57:47.880
would be a huge cloud of particles
that we can't that we don't have the

673
00:57:49.159 --> 00:57:52.840
capability to measure or see right now
now. And here's the weird thing though,

674
00:57:53.440 --> 00:57:57.559
and I read this, uh in
one of the papers, that was

675
00:57:58.000 --> 00:58:01.719
that when they're trying to herman um, you know, is this like a

676
00:58:01.840 --> 00:58:08.519
fine vapor that's out in the cosmos? Are they are their chunks, are

677
00:58:08.559 --> 00:58:14.280
their baseballs of this stuff floating around? And weirdly enough, there's a range

678
00:58:14.679 --> 00:58:17.119
and they've kind of mapped something out
right, Yeah, and they they've found

679
00:58:17.159 --> 00:58:22.880
some indirect ways of kind of seeing
approximately what it would look like um.

680
00:58:22.920 --> 00:58:27.000
For what they're looking for, like
it has to be between A and B,

681
00:58:27.599 --> 00:58:31.800
where A is about fifty five grams
and anything smaller than that, and

682
00:58:31.880 --> 00:58:35.639
apparently there was some sort of detector
because they were they didn't go into digital

683
00:58:35.679 --> 00:58:40.719
on this on Skylab, which is
late seventies anything smaller than that and Skylab

684
00:58:40.760 --> 00:58:46.199
would have detected it. And then
on the upper end is like one hundred

685
00:58:46.679 --> 00:58:53.159
one one million, billion billion grams, so big stars, you know,

686
00:58:53.639 --> 00:59:00.480
because that doesn't come crashing into the
system because of the very the very uh

687
00:59:00.519 --> 00:59:06.760
discernible effects of very immediate gravitational lensing
of of of around an object. You

688
00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:09.039
know, you could determine the edges
of it if it was bigger than that.

689
00:59:09.159 --> 00:59:14.880
So they actually have a range that
they're that they're looking for. And

690
00:59:15.199 --> 00:59:20.000
I wonder, so these particles,
they they they obviously they have to interact

691
00:59:20.079 --> 00:59:24.440
gravitationally, and they think that maybe
there's some weak nuclear force going on.

692
00:59:25.400 --> 00:59:30.199
But I wonder, like, if
you were in a starship riding through this,

693
00:59:30.800 --> 00:59:32.679
say it was all the size of
volleyballs, I mean, do you

694
00:59:32.760 --> 00:59:37.599
hit it and it just it just
flies apart because only only gravity, which

695
00:59:37.760 --> 00:59:45.639
is one of the weakest attractive forces, ironically is uh is when you compare

696
00:59:45.679 --> 00:59:51.039
it, you know, to some
of the other electromagnetic yeah, some of

697
00:59:51.039 --> 00:59:53.639
the atomic uh you know, attractive
strong forces or things like that. It's

698
00:59:53.639 --> 00:59:58.920
it's amazing. But if that's all
it has going for it, it's kind

699
00:59:58.920 --> 01:00:01.280
of interesting. I don't know.
That's that's another cool thing I read about

700
01:00:01.360 --> 01:00:05.599
ramps. Ramps, Well, what
about on the other end of the spectrum

701
01:00:05.599 --> 01:00:10.679
and MACHOs macho, macho, that's
right. I want to be. I

702
01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:17.400
wrung to be a macho man manstroman. I'm never gonna stop doing or something

703
01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:22.199
else. You can tell it's a
good one because they make sure to say

704
01:00:22.199 --> 01:00:29.679
what I was doing. MACHOs are
massive compact halo objects. Yeah, these

705
01:00:29.679 --> 01:00:36.239
are non luminous, massive objects.
We're talking Jupiter size and up floating around.

706
01:00:36.719 --> 01:00:40.840
They're very dark. They could be
brown dwarves, they could be neutron

707
01:00:42.000 --> 01:00:46.800
stars, they could be black holes
that we just can't see with our instruments.

708
01:00:47.039 --> 01:00:53.760
But they definitely have an impact on
gravity around the area. Gravitational impact.

709
01:00:54.360 --> 01:01:00.159
Right, they definitely bend yep spacetime
light. They're no in those neighborhoods.

710
01:01:00.320 --> 01:01:05.880
Is ne'er do whales and miscreants.
Uh, it's just it's it's a

711
01:01:05.880 --> 01:01:09.360
bunch of junk that's just floating out
there, that's dark, that's black,

712
01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:15.840
that that we can't see. These
are definitely tangible things and it's just that

713
01:01:15.920 --> 01:01:20.480
we can't see them, and we're
kind of being silly thinking there's something other

714
01:01:20.519 --> 01:01:25.280
than that. Um. There was
an interview just uh, just like within

715
01:01:25.320 --> 01:01:30.480
the last three days that I read, and it was about these different teams

716
01:01:30.639 --> 01:01:34.320
that were all looking for dark matter, but they were looking for different kinds

717
01:01:34.320 --> 01:01:37.880
of at different particles, and all
of them they're like, you know,

718
01:01:37.360 --> 01:01:40.079
they were They were all really genial
too. It's something they were like competing

719
01:01:40.159 --> 01:01:44.400
or anything. But they were like, you know, I gotta if I'm

720
01:01:44.400 --> 01:01:46.679
being totally honest, I don't think
any of us are looking for the right

721
01:01:46.719 --> 01:01:50.760
thing. And they all were like, yeah, we kind of get that

722
01:01:50.800 --> 01:01:54.480
feeling too, But they have to
check what they're checking. They have to

723
01:01:54.480 --> 01:01:58.760
be able to eliminate these options.
They have to say, well, this

724
01:01:58.840 --> 01:02:00.480
is our best guests. We think
it's whimp so we think it's axeons.

725
01:02:00.960 --> 01:02:04.159
So they're like, well, then
we have to look for them. But

726
01:02:04.239 --> 01:02:07.039
these guys are like, we are
looking for a solution in terms of things

727
01:02:07.039 --> 01:02:12.840
that we already understand, and they
said they're they're like, we everyone thinks

728
01:02:12.880 --> 01:02:15.280
that when we finally get a hold
of some of this stuff or able to

729
01:02:15.320 --> 01:02:19.719
really track it down, that it's
going to blow our minds. That it's

730
01:02:19.719 --> 01:02:22.400
going to have interactions that we didn't
even know were possible, particles that we

731
01:02:22.440 --> 01:02:27.239
don't have described or even have in
our lexicon anywhere. He's like, you

732
01:02:27.280 --> 01:02:30.000
know, they're the universe doesn't have
to play by the rules that work in

733
01:02:30.000 --> 01:02:34.400
this corner of things, and that's
a really cool idea. I thought that

734
01:02:34.440 --> 01:02:37.519
even the scientists are like, well, we're looking and we hope to find

735
01:02:37.519 --> 01:02:39.639
them. It'd be great if if
we could, if if we guessed right.

736
01:02:40.440 --> 01:02:45.760
But there's this kind of undercurrent that
what they're really doing is just doing

737
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:50.280
the due diligence. Go to college, try so they can scratch that off

738
01:02:50.320 --> 01:02:52.840
their list and say, Okay,
what's the next idea of what it could

739
01:02:52.880 --> 01:02:57.480
be? Yeah, and I think
that's great. That sounds like it leads

740
01:02:57.519 --> 01:03:01.039
to the next thing that I've got
on my list. That dark matter is

741
01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:08.880
actually gravity from objects in another dimension. Whoa, and forgive me for waiting

742
01:03:08.920 --> 01:03:14.960
into this mire, but I'm going
to go in because of dropma keys and

743
01:03:15.920 --> 01:03:22.119
we're gonna try it. This it's
it's been proposed that spacetime exists, or

744
01:03:22.239 --> 01:03:31.199
rather appears four dimensional and nearly flat. This space time encompasses a membrane,

745
01:03:31.519 --> 01:03:37.679
which everybody just shortens to brain b
R A n E. Okay. In

746
01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:44.280
looking for a single unified field theory
or an m theory or a theory of

747
01:03:44.360 --> 01:03:53.000
everything, the thought that large extra
dimensions may exist, especially when reconciling string

748
01:03:53.039 --> 01:03:59.239
theory. Right, stay with me
now, our brain world. Just imagine

749
01:03:59.239 --> 01:04:02.159
a sheet of paper. Keep saying
membrane world, even though they don't say

750
01:04:02.159 --> 01:04:05.679
that, because it sounds like you're
trying to make it into somebody's thought idea.

751
01:04:05.800 --> 01:04:09.880
All right, our membrane world.
Do you think of a sheet of

752
01:04:09.880 --> 01:04:14.119
paper. We're a dot on it. We're a doodle of dick butt,

753
01:04:15.239 --> 01:04:19.320
not even that not even that big, just like a pin dot. This

754
01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:24.199
is the the four dimensional space time
that we occupy, right, Yeah,

755
01:04:24.800 --> 01:04:29.800
may have one or more shadow membranes
nearby. That would be another piece of

756
01:04:29.840 --> 01:04:33.280
paper that you would put up next
to it. Right, Since light does

757
01:04:33.320 --> 01:04:39.719
not propagate through the membranes, we
can't observe that. We can't observe anything

758
01:04:39.760 --> 01:04:45.400
from this othern membrane, but gravity
may propagate through. Oh so, so

759
01:04:45.440 --> 01:04:48.639
it's almost as though like if that
piece of paper had a fold in it,

760
01:04:49.280 --> 01:04:53.559
that fold would be kind of yet
pushed into the next piece of paper.

761
01:04:54.920 --> 01:05:00.039
More so, like if it had
a massive dot on it, that

762
01:05:00.199 --> 01:05:06.039
the gravity from that massive dot,
which would be anything a huge something with

763
01:05:06.119 --> 01:05:13.000
a lot of mass in our typical
world, our typical universe that we think

764
01:05:13.119 --> 01:05:18.519
is is real, that the gravity
would be so strong from that it would

765
01:05:18.599 --> 01:05:23.400
influence this whole other sheet of paper
that we're on. I don't think that

766
01:05:23.400 --> 01:05:27.639
that's that that crazy. I don't
either, but you know they have you

767
01:05:27.639 --> 01:05:33.480
know, an electron will a single
electron will will interact with itself in every

768
01:05:33.480 --> 01:05:39.159
position it can be in. So
so why not sure? I mean the

769
01:05:39.280 --> 01:05:42.760
thought that you know, gravity,
like you said, gravity is one of

770
01:05:42.760 --> 01:05:46.360
the weaker of the fundamental forces.
But to me, if that were the

771
01:05:46.440 --> 01:05:50.800
case, if it had you know, if it could exert itself through dimensions,

772
01:05:50.920 --> 01:05:56.840
that's pretty powerful and kind of a
curveball. Well, you know,

773
01:05:57.239 --> 01:06:00.960
it's the same way. I think
gravity is one of the weaker forces,

774
01:06:01.039 --> 01:06:06.000
but in the same way that water
is soft. But you know, let's

775
01:06:06.000 --> 01:06:09.559
get off fortuno. You know water, roads, mountains, it cuts through

776
01:06:09.679 --> 01:06:13.119
rocks. Well yeah, you know, because it's it's intractable, you know,

777
01:06:13.159 --> 01:06:15.239
it just it just it doesn't stop. Yeah, So same thing with

778
01:06:15.280 --> 01:06:19.119
gravity. You know, if it's
it's a weak force, but on these

779
01:06:19.239 --> 01:06:26.679
huge scales, well it don't quit. Gravity could move mountains, kill me

780
01:06:28.880 --> 01:06:33.760
anyway. That's you. You may
have seen a show or a video or

781
01:06:33.800 --> 01:06:42.840
something lighters of someone you know which
uh um. You may have seen a

782
01:06:42.920 --> 01:06:46.519
video of some somebody holding a bowling
ball and putting it on a trampoline,

783
01:06:46.599 --> 01:06:50.280
like in the middle of the trampoline, and then that's them saying, this

784
01:06:50.400 --> 01:06:57.880
is a star. It's exerting.
Uh, it's gravity and bending spacetime.

785
01:06:58.079 --> 01:07:00.719
The trampoline is spacetime. So then
when they roll a marble around it,

786
01:07:00.440 --> 01:07:04.119
yeah, it gets a fact.
It pulls it in a different direction from

787
01:07:04.119 --> 01:07:08.719
the straight line that you roll it
in, and then it starts encircling the

788
01:07:08.960 --> 01:07:13.719
bowling ball. Blah blah blah.
Well, just imagine that there is another

789
01:07:13.920 --> 01:07:17.239
trampling above the first tramp That's why
I said, if there's a fold in

790
01:07:17.239 --> 01:07:20.000
the paper, I was thinking exactly
of that, of that description. I

791
01:07:20.079 --> 01:07:21.960
was like, oh, so if
this had a massive thing and it was

792
01:07:23.039 --> 01:07:26.599
pushing down, pushing could be pushing
it, or it could be pulling it

793
01:07:26.679 --> 01:07:29.800
from you know, from the bottom
or whatever. You know. I don't

794
01:07:29.840 --> 01:07:32.880
know where the papers at four dimensional, but but you know, I can

795
01:07:33.000 --> 01:07:36.519
you know, why why the hell
not there is There is no question that

796
01:07:36.519 --> 01:07:41.639
there are a huge amount of things. It's not like we have all the

797
01:07:41.679 --> 01:07:45.239
basic building blocks right now and the
Lego kit and are just waiting to build

798
01:07:45.239 --> 01:07:48.559
the dragon, right That's not the
case. There are so many more things

799
01:07:48.559 --> 01:07:55.639
that we have no concept of.
We have a very limited understanding of physics

800
01:07:55.639 --> 01:07:58.239
on that scale, right, And
that's what I love about this, Like

801
01:07:58.840 --> 01:08:03.079
dark energy is like this huge warning
that there is a lot we don't know,

802
01:08:03.440 --> 01:08:08.679
and that that that it's it's it's
inescapably there. We know it's there,

803
01:08:08.679 --> 01:08:12.280
but we can't explain it. And
I think that's perfect. That's exactly

804
01:08:12.320 --> 01:08:15.599
what people need. You said dark
energy, did you mean dark matter?

805
01:08:15.840 --> 01:08:18.479
What's the death? And for that
example, I meant both ways. There's

806
01:08:18.520 --> 01:08:23.720
there's this there's this stuff out there
that is acting and doing and being acted

807
01:08:23.800 --> 01:08:28.920
upon and that we can't explain.
That's that's enough to affect galaxies. Yeah,

808
01:08:28.960 --> 01:08:31.880
that is huge and important and and
that's the thing, that's the best

809
01:08:31.920 --> 01:08:38.159
part. It's ninety five percent of
the fucking universe. Yeah, it's it's

810
01:08:38.239 --> 01:08:42.600
not like some tiny, weird minute
detail. We yea. It is the

811
01:08:42.760 --> 01:08:47.560
foundation of how everything else is happening
and knowing what it what it is.

812
01:08:47.560 --> 01:08:51.760
This is the search for what it
is, knowing what it is, figuring

813
01:08:51.760 --> 01:08:57.000
it out. I mean that that
just it gives us a little piece of

814
01:08:57.000 --> 01:09:00.920
our five percent back. And I
think that you know, Ultimately, it

815
01:09:00.039 --> 01:09:05.560
helps predict things that that we would
otherwise have no idea about it would It

816
01:09:05.640 --> 01:09:12.279
helps understand how we fit in with
with things. To me, that's yeah,

817
01:09:12.560 --> 01:09:16.720
that's worth something. Yeah. I
think there's nothing better than a humbling

818
01:09:16.800 --> 01:09:20.760
mystery to find out that there's something
that's so fundamental to everything and we don't

819
01:09:20.840 --> 01:09:26.159
we don't have clue one. I
think that's great. And it also,

820
01:09:26.279 --> 01:09:31.640
you know, it seems at first
a little overwhelming and sad and lonely that

821
01:09:31.640 --> 01:09:35.600
that we're only part of five percent
of the universe. But at the same

822
01:09:35.640 --> 01:09:42.119
time, miss Preti spatial, Hey, look who's unique. Here's every emen

823
01:09:43.119 --> 01:09:48.840
So think it's ribbon everybody, everyone, All baryonic based entities get a ribbon.

824
01:09:50.439 --> 01:09:55.520
Oh anyway, so yeah, there, there you go. That's our

825
01:09:55.520 --> 01:10:02.000
first foray into darkness and uh the
farti darkness. That's dark matter in a

826
01:10:02.119 --> 01:10:12.520
huge, hyper massive hty gravitationally lensing, light bending nutshell. And now it's

827
01:10:12.560 --> 01:10:17.960
time to fly straight into the black
hole. That's right, or Maximilian the

828
01:10:18.039 --> 01:10:25.039
robot has human eyes. Please anyone
who got that reference you are my favorite

829
01:10:25.039 --> 01:10:28.039
people. And if you didn't,
it's not too late. But I ain't

830
01:10:28.079 --> 01:10:34.079
gonna tell you where it's from.
Yep, it's time to breach the singularity

831
01:10:34.159 --> 01:10:47.680
that is space flora you start,
Okay, that's that's what I'm like thinking.

832
01:10:48.279 --> 01:10:58.479
How about a massive object that somehow
exerts force on probably pop culture?

833
01:10:59.039 --> 01:11:04.279
Oh really, Arc Shatner? Oh
nice, I love Shatner. Oh I'm

834
01:11:04.279 --> 01:11:11.079
not going to get an impersonation here. Struck it out on that one.

835
01:11:11.680 --> 01:11:15.039
All right. How about how about
this I'm in the pun zone, dude,

836
01:11:15.159 --> 01:11:19.079
Okay, very focused. I can't
be detected, alright. I neither

837
01:11:19.119 --> 01:11:26.359
admit, absorb, nor reflect.
Like it's a bad Shatner. But then

838
01:11:26.399 --> 01:11:30.439
again, that's all I wanted something. Um. Okay, did you hear

839
01:11:31.239 --> 01:11:36.680
that? Um? There are actually
organisms? I mean that are They're composed

840
01:11:36.720 --> 01:11:41.560
of dark matter? Really yep?
And um they're They're just like us.

841
01:11:41.560 --> 01:11:45.079
They have hopes wing the dreams and
I don't have wings. They have wings?

842
01:11:45.119 --> 01:11:47.359
They do? They have aspirations?
Are the angels? Um? No?

843
01:11:47.840 --> 01:11:53.119
But um. At one point in
their history one of their test pilots

844
01:11:53.479 --> 01:11:59.319
was badly horribly injured the Russians.
No, and uh, he was thrown

845
01:11:59.319 --> 01:12:03.239
out of the aircraft of the test
vehicle. But I mean limbs lost wow.

846
01:12:03.800 --> 01:12:09.359
But they decided, what if we
use these other particles. He's extraordinarily

847
01:12:09.479 --> 01:12:12.880
rare. Did you know the only
only five percent of the universe has these

848
01:12:12.920 --> 01:12:16.399
particles. They use them to rebuild
him better, faster, stronger. Cost

849
01:12:16.439 --> 01:12:29.720
them six million dollars. Yeah,
they made him the baryonic man Lee Majors

850
01:12:30.039 --> 01:12:38.479
is. Yeah, man, I
have a theory for for that bending and

851
01:12:38.600 --> 01:12:42.319
warping and that heavy force in your
gut. Oh God, don't I know

852
01:12:42.439 --> 01:12:44.880
it? You know what? You
know what it could be? It could

853
01:12:44.920 --> 01:12:50.880
be one of two things. What
shrimps and nachos ah truth both at the

854
01:12:50.880 --> 01:12:58.760
same time. Even Oh, you
know, there's another sum topic particle that

855
01:12:58.920 --> 01:13:02.279
is um very low notebic doesn't really
move fast at all. But scientists have

856
01:13:02.319 --> 01:13:08.039
been trying to collect these particles because
they're just so good when you spread them

857
01:13:08.079 --> 01:13:16.039
on toasts new tellos delicious. Yeah, yeah, very very delicate instruments to

858
01:13:16.119 --> 01:13:24.600
catch it. That's right, life
and toast a big old spoons puns.

859
01:13:24.960 --> 01:13:28.439
You're welcome, America. I've been
telling you this for months, Dave.

860
01:13:30.479 --> 01:13:33.079
Now, with the help of the
scientists of the world, we shall attempt

861
01:13:33.079 --> 01:13:39.079
to delve into something so strange,
so poorly understood that we don't even have

862
01:13:39.119 --> 01:13:43.079
the foundational theories to describe it.
We barely have a term for it.

863
01:13:43.920 --> 01:13:49.840
Some call it was sitka. The
ancient Vedics called it me wow. We

864
01:13:50.720 --> 01:14:05.880
scientists can only call it listener.
I thought that the Vedics were giant cats,

865
01:14:05.960 --> 01:14:11.720
right all right, straight out of
the mail bag. Oh God,

866
01:14:12.159 --> 01:14:16.119
you reach in and just fifteen green
tentacles grab your hand and you start hearing

867
01:14:16.239 --> 01:14:21.600
the mnemonic kiss of madness build in
your mind. They just let go.

868
01:14:23.399 --> 01:14:32.199
I'm like, maybe later because Fulu
hungers Flulu or flu not to get ken

869
01:14:32.239 --> 01:14:36.399
in here for this like Cthulhu hungers
Wow. Wow, Yeah, that's right.

870
01:14:36.520 --> 01:14:42.800
They thought the idea it's writing in. Yes, the concept the hunger

871
01:14:42.840 --> 01:14:48.159
of Cthulu has voice geez I mean
and ears beyond all comprehensions. True,

872
01:14:48.239 --> 01:14:53.000
that makes sense. It hits us
with this first time rider, longtime listener,

873
01:14:53.079 --> 01:14:57.119
Hi, thank yeah. Did you
know there's a little known fact that

874
01:14:57.760 --> 01:15:01.119
Diggie Toots hit single slender Man in
Black, which accompanied the movie at the

875
01:15:01.159 --> 01:15:04.520
same name, was actually ripped off
from a great nineteen eighty two single by

876
01:15:04.600 --> 01:15:13.239
Raspute and Sharimi featuring Richard Nixon.
It was called sending Bohemians to grab grass.

877
01:15:15.119 --> 01:15:18.520
Well, yeah, i'd listen to
it. Yeah, I want to

878
01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:23.399
listen to some Nicks and some Nixon
tracks that arrow hit many targets. Oh

879
01:15:23.479 --> 01:15:30.439
yeah, also which in this makes
perfectly good sense, Cathulu Hunger has requests

880
01:15:30.439 --> 01:15:35.279
some HP Lovecraft, and I think
for that one might just turn your mind

881
01:15:35.399 --> 01:15:42.479
back to our amazing two parter with
the ignominious Kenneth Height. Ever heard them?

882
01:15:42.560 --> 01:15:45.560
Yeah, nothing, nothing but nothing. But I almost suspect that you've

883
01:15:45.560 --> 01:15:51.039
heard this before, so maybe I'm
not understanding that. Ah Um also has

884
01:15:51.079 --> 01:15:56.479
some ideas for some show topics that
we have discussed, and and and maybe

885
01:15:56.479 --> 01:16:00.319
a little too quickly just thrown out
with the bathwater. So we'll go over

886
01:16:00.359 --> 01:16:04.159
it. Well, we're willing to
revisit our ideas. Oh always. Indeed,

887
01:16:04.479 --> 01:16:08.359
thank you very much, Cathulu Hungers, and thank you for leaving me

888
01:16:08.439 --> 01:16:12.239
my mind somewhat intact. Sure,
I mean, I hear the voices,

889
01:16:12.279 --> 01:16:17.800
I see the shadow spiders, but
I just ye talking up to getting older.

890
01:16:19.079 --> 01:16:23.600
Yeah, that's the crush of insanity
for you. Floor. What do

891
01:16:23.600 --> 01:16:29.560
you got all right? Heard from
listener, longtime listener Jeff Oh, Hello,

892
01:16:29.640 --> 01:16:33.600
Jeff, Hello, Jeff. Jeff
actually writes in with a little little

893
01:16:33.600 --> 01:16:38.560
bit of a short story. Oh
really, food out there for Halloween.

894
01:16:39.880 --> 01:16:43.880
We're of course a little late on
getting to it for Halloween. But you

895
01:16:43.920 --> 01:16:46.119
know, the spook never stops here, never spook. Spooks don't quit.

896
01:16:46.520 --> 01:16:49.800
Spook don't quit. Spook keeps going. Spook don't quit. This one no

897
01:16:49.880 --> 01:16:56.600
vegibi, so uh oh say safe
to read. But he sends us a

898
01:16:56.640 --> 01:16:59.840
ghost story for Halloween. It was
based on a personal story of his.

899
01:17:00.840 --> 01:17:08.319
But it's in short story form.
How short? Yeah? What are you

900
01:17:08.359 --> 01:17:12.920
signing me up for here? Brother? I proposed this. If you've got

901
01:17:12.920 --> 01:17:15.720
a short story, yo, I'll
solve it. Check out my beat while

902
01:17:15.760 --> 01:17:20.239
my DJ revolves it. Short story
babying ing ing ing ing ing. If

903
01:17:20.279 --> 01:17:24.560
you've got one that you'd like us
to throw in there, and you know

904
01:17:24.640 --> 01:17:27.560
the length that we're talking about,
you've listened to enough of our ghost stories.

905
01:17:27.640 --> 01:17:30.319
Yeah, the length is called short. The length is short and super

906
01:17:30.359 --> 01:17:34.720
short. We want Hoku's motherfucker,
and we're aiming for PG. Thirteen of

907
01:17:34.760 --> 01:17:38.720
course with them. But if you
want to do that, we might put

908
01:17:38.720 --> 01:17:43.439
together a supplemental episode and throw that
out there and maybe that's a fun thing

909
01:17:43.479 --> 01:17:46.800
to do for Yule because we didn't
do ghost stories last Yule. That's right

910
01:17:46.880 --> 01:17:51.680
as we Oh, listener ghost stories? Yeah, why not listener ghost stories?

911
01:17:53.000 --> 01:17:58.720
Yeah, and scaring the presents right
out of your stocking. Stocking is

912
01:17:58.760 --> 01:18:01.079
your butt in the presents are And
we'll we'll get to we'll get to that.

913
01:18:01.119 --> 01:18:03.960
Well, we'll read we'll read them
on on there. We'll may do

914
01:18:04.000 --> 01:18:09.760
a oh yeah, it's speciale and
a little shorter episode maybe a supplemental type

915
01:18:10.760 --> 01:18:14.920
thing of me jig. But you
know, for a Christmas holiday, Yeah,

916
01:18:15.079 --> 01:18:17.479
for for Chrismus. Oh, it's
coming up, everybody, Saturn,

917
01:18:17.800 --> 01:18:24.319
Nilia, dude, guys, smiss
is coming. But Jeff does how you

918
01:18:24.399 --> 01:18:28.600
like? I'm not gonna tell you
what you're mean. It's America. You

919
01:18:28.600 --> 01:18:30.399
could you could throw an X in
there and put it on cards at that

920
01:18:30.479 --> 01:18:38.640
point, maybe that's something we can
put in the store. You're one stop

921
01:18:38.680 --> 01:18:45.399
supply shop for SMIs presents. You're
only stop supply. Jeff does wish all

922
01:18:45.640 --> 01:18:50.079
uh our glaucoma patients a happy Halloween, and that's what he's calling blurry photos.

923
01:18:50.079 --> 01:18:55.000
Listeners. Oh I like that.
Glaucoma pae also implies that they're high.

924
01:18:55.000 --> 01:18:59.239
Maybe so maybe no, Uh yeah, Jeff, we still got this

925
01:18:59.279 --> 01:19:01.319
here. We're gonna see if we
get any more and then we'll throw them

926
01:19:01.359 --> 01:19:05.920
all on the bonfire and toast some
marshmallows around it and get nick and probably

927
01:19:06.640 --> 01:19:13.359
but just no, we've we've got
that fire sparked. Thank you for tank

928
01:19:13.439 --> 01:19:21.199
kiss her Wow you wow. Oh
we got an email from Taper. Oh

929
01:19:21.279 --> 01:19:27.720
hot Taper. Hello. Taper hits
us with this. Uh he really enjoyed

930
01:19:27.720 --> 01:19:30.039
blurry Fotober. At the point he
wrote this, it was an ongoing thing.

931
01:19:30.039 --> 01:19:33.319
So I'm putting the past tense in
for him. And he has to

932
01:19:33.359 --> 01:19:39.039
point out an interesting error that is
not a penalty box. Oh wow,

933
01:19:39.600 --> 01:19:42.199
it's just something that he's aware of
it. I can see how this would

934
01:19:42.199 --> 01:19:45.880
be like a this is this is
like no one at the end of me

935
01:19:45.920 --> 01:19:47.039
reading this is going to be thankful
for this, because it's like a little

936
01:19:47.079 --> 01:19:49.640
splinter that you have to carry for
the rest of your life. Yeah,

937
01:19:49.680 --> 01:19:54.279
but you know, we're a community
and if one of us has mouth herpies,

938
01:19:54.359 --> 01:19:58.520
let's all get it in the most
fun possible way. Okay, do

939
01:19:58.600 --> 01:20:00.840
you like where I went with that? Our eagle sound which we will never

940
01:20:00.840 --> 01:20:05.640
stop using. Sure, it is
not the screech of an eagle, it's

941
01:20:05.680 --> 01:20:10.640
the screech of a red tailed hawk. Now, the media has been lying.

942
01:20:10.880 --> 01:20:14.600
Media has been lying you for years
about this, movies to TV.

943
01:20:14.640 --> 01:20:16.159
I'm gonna read the rest of this
like Alice Jones. Okay, seriously,

944
01:20:16.199 --> 01:20:19.680
in movies and TV, whenever there's
an eagle sound effect, here's a cry

945
01:20:19.680 --> 01:20:25.600
of a red tailed hawk. I
wish that he had a big like weird

946
01:20:25.760 --> 01:20:31.279
old Texan man as a as a
sidekick Hall because it sounds so much more

947
01:20:31.399 --> 01:20:40.800
Badassah Leicester, do you just stroke
out? No, he's just so mad

948
01:20:40.840 --> 01:20:46.159
at Liberty's dying. Yeah. So
even the sound effects library is lying to

949
01:20:46.239 --> 01:20:50.439
us. It's an example of the
coconut effect, when it completely fake sounds

950
01:20:51.079 --> 01:20:56.560
or visual effect has used so often
the media that the real thing doesn't even

951
01:20:56.600 --> 01:21:01.720
sound right like coconuts banging always sound
like cor horse hoofs um or. Common

952
01:21:01.760 --> 01:21:09.079
examples include owls making loud wing flap
noises which they don't loud, BP computer

953
01:21:09.199 --> 01:21:13.520
sounds, CGI shots with lens flap. That's true on TV shows when you

954
01:21:13.560 --> 01:21:20.399
type it's all like that never happens, or like um when people hang up

955
01:21:20.399 --> 01:21:26.079
in movies and it goes straight to
It's like, well I er dial tout

956
01:21:26.159 --> 01:21:30.239
instantly. That doesn't happen, and
people still to this day occasionally this is

957
01:21:30.279 --> 01:21:34.600
a holdover from like the fifties where
they tap the thing a few times and

958
01:21:34.600 --> 01:21:39.600
go hello, tap tap tap tap
tap. That is in my whole lifetime.

959
01:21:39.760 --> 01:21:44.239
I've never done anything for anyone it
has hung up. Yeah, but

960
01:21:44.680 --> 01:21:48.319
he also includes some links to real
eagle cries, which is great, and

961
01:21:48.399 --> 01:21:53.479
the red red tailed huk for comparison. Uh huhs just so we know which

962
01:21:53.520 --> 01:22:00.840
is awesome. That's a good hey
after school special sound boy. Getting my

963
01:22:00.880 --> 01:22:03.840
smiles out of that one. Well, well, I'm just saying it's and

964
01:22:04.359 --> 01:22:09.159
it's worth it. We're learning here. I've got to tell you. It's

965
01:22:09.159 --> 01:22:17.479
a before school sounds whist. Y'all
got shamalan, y'all got redtailed hawked.

966
01:22:18.399 --> 01:22:21.520
Um. He doesn't think anything can
be done to fix it. I agree,

967
01:22:21.600 --> 01:22:25.920
Well, they're never gonna come around
to it. Don't don't hate me

968
01:22:26.119 --> 01:22:30.560
for this. I knew it because
the sound effect actually is labeled hawk screech.

969
01:22:31.439 --> 01:22:35.239
But it just sounds so good.
It sounds like freedom to me.

970
01:22:35.279 --> 01:22:40.520
You're a part of the industrial complex
that's keeping the Redtailed Hawk down. You

971
01:22:40.600 --> 01:22:43.239
knew what it was, and you
lied to me, Flora, you lied

972
01:22:43.279 --> 01:22:45.680
to him. I could have blown
the whistle, you could have blown the

973
01:22:45.720 --> 01:22:48.880
lid off of it, and the
loop didn't and you didn't. I'll live

974
01:22:48.920 --> 01:22:51.840
with this. Give me give me
back that water filter. I'll just give

975
01:22:51.880 --> 01:22:56.960
it back. No, I've got
bad My family needs it. I love

976
01:22:57.039 --> 01:23:01.239
them. You need it for the
FEMA camp. Oh man, um,

977
01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:06.680
how about this? He could rule
it evidence of him mundane superpower and eagle

978
01:23:06.760 --> 01:23:14.439
with the uncanny ability to flawlessly imitator
redtail Hawk. Oh pretty awesome. Wow,

979
01:23:14.800 --> 01:23:16.880
that's what we'll That's that's how we'll. Yeah, that's how we'll do

980
01:23:16.920 --> 01:23:28.439
it. Thank you, Taper.
Is there a truck backing up? Is

981
01:23:28.520 --> 01:23:30.880
my heart rate gonna drop? Am
I gonna do it? Is because it's

982
01:23:30.920 --> 01:23:39.199
time for ECG bird? Oh yeah, I said. He enjoyed the Civil

983
01:23:39.279 --> 01:23:44.359
War episode and the Badgers, which
is, by the way, the best

984
01:23:44.359 --> 01:23:46.159
sound to scare somebody. If you
lunge at someone from around a corner,

985
01:23:46.520 --> 01:23:51.119
hide under a boat a hamburg.
I'm sure really that sound really scares him.

986
01:23:51.119 --> 01:23:56.279
When you lunge around a corner.
Yeah, that's the sadum that really

987
01:23:56.279 --> 01:24:00.680
sells it. I use the bag
I use the badger sound to scare Greg

988
01:24:00.680 --> 01:24:04.880
back like crazy. He's like a
ten percent badger sound and he's like you

989
01:24:04.920 --> 01:24:08.960
need Yeah, of course you were
around the corner in the dark too.

990
01:24:09.000 --> 01:24:15.800
Well, that's proof of my concept. Ecg Bert writes in with with some

991
01:24:15.840 --> 01:24:21.479
cool stuff, including suggestions which we
appreciate, love them, and also regarding

992
01:24:21.560 --> 01:24:27.880
lucid dreaming, he's done it on
occasion, though it's usually not been as

993
01:24:27.880 --> 01:24:31.560
exciting as it sounds. He says
he's found himself walking around some empty offices

994
01:24:31.600 --> 01:24:40.159
and sneaking around a pickle factory,
for instance, paging doctor Freud. He

995
01:24:40.199 --> 01:24:46.239
says he has had c X but
ended up breaking something which was rather alarming.

996
01:24:46.640 --> 01:24:51.920
Now by something, do you a
pickle jar or a pickle? Yeah,

997
01:24:53.000 --> 01:24:56.359
what do you mean? Breaks up? Anyway? Hearts? Oh,

998
01:24:56.399 --> 01:25:00.119
we can go with hearts, but
anyway. Just a week ago, he

999
01:25:00.119 --> 01:25:04.880
said he flew for the first time
in the dream. It was an awesome

1000
01:25:04.880 --> 01:25:09.279
experience. He had his hands at
his sides and he sped through the air

1001
01:25:09.319 --> 01:25:14.119
like a bullet rocketeer style. Yeah, though with complete sense of control.

1002
01:25:15.119 --> 01:25:16.600
So it's like he had the helmet
on, and he said it felt so

1003
01:25:16.680 --> 01:25:21.000
real he could actually hear and feel
the air rushing past his ears. Isn't

1004
01:25:21.000 --> 01:25:28.079
that crazy? How how dreams will
Yeah, the sensory memory will will really

1005
01:25:28.119 --> 01:25:30.199
spring up and dreams like that.
And I've I've had some of that recently

1006
01:25:30.239 --> 01:25:39.520
too. Um. Yeah, that's
what I was reading. It says as

1007
01:25:39.520 --> 01:25:42.439
to what the other dreams say about
the state of my mind, Please don't

1008
01:25:42.439 --> 01:25:51.720
bring forward into it late a bitch. Oh, sometimes sometimes we don't play

1009
01:25:51.720 --> 01:25:56.279
on a lot of stuff. I
had a dream my job is that a

1010
01:25:56.319 --> 01:25:59.600
hot dog factory, and I had
to lick all the mustard off the hot

1011
01:25:59.680 --> 01:26:05.119
dog. I don't know what it
means. Uh. He also doesn't mind

1012
01:26:05.119 --> 01:26:15.520
our English accents off. Thank you
real thanks brother. Um. He says

1013
01:26:15.600 --> 01:26:18.640
he's punishingly bad at puns, so
he won't attempt any, just in case

1014
01:26:18.680 --> 01:26:25.159
we want to punch him for making
us endure them, you know. Um.

1015
01:26:25.159 --> 01:26:28.880
It was recently pointed out to me
with no small amount of disgust.

1016
01:26:30.119 --> 01:26:34.159
I was sitting on the sofa and
I was texting you, and my friend

1017
01:26:34.239 --> 01:26:40.880
leans over and goes, Honestly,
you guys text each other in accents,

1018
01:26:42.159 --> 01:26:45.479
and I was like, yeah,
she was just like, dear god,

1019
01:26:45.359 --> 01:26:49.399
okay, and we did. We
were we were in the midst of like

1020
01:26:49.520 --> 01:26:58.239
the worst Cockney text. Yeah,
it's fun. Oh, thank you,

1021
01:26:58.279 --> 01:27:04.800
Ecge and thanks thank you sir.
We got an email from the bombardier.

1022
01:27:09.319 --> 01:27:12.680
That's funny because I thought of that. But I've also thought that he's a

1023
01:27:12.720 --> 01:27:19.279
Mexican wrestler. It'dier. I don't
need to get going either way. I

1024
01:27:19.319 --> 01:27:25.880
don't. I always thought a really
great name for a Mexican wrestler was Bob

1025
01:27:26.199 --> 01:27:29.319
L. Bombastino. And that might
be because at some point I saw a

1026
01:27:29.359 --> 01:27:32.800
Mexican wrestler with that name. But
in my mind, that's the penultimate Mexican

1027
01:27:32.840 --> 01:27:40.399
wrestler. It'll bombast no ill ill. I don't know anything, so I'm

1028
01:27:40.439 --> 01:27:44.479
sure whatever I said, uh,
he hits it with this. The episode

1029
01:27:44.479 --> 01:27:46.880
in the Civil War Ghost was beyond
argument, our best production yet. Wow.

1030
01:27:47.079 --> 01:27:49.399
See this is all for you,
Flora. You did this. The

1031
01:27:49.520 --> 01:27:55.560
quality of the writing, what the
research, Okay, we're evident, and

1032
01:27:55.600 --> 01:28:00.359
as well as the sound editing.
Thank you did you write this and sent

1033
01:28:00.479 --> 01:28:08.840
it in? Yes? I can't
fool you. Bommadeer lives near Gettysburg and

1034
01:28:08.920 --> 01:28:14.079
he visited the battlefields and memorial several
times. Never been a Civil War buff

1035
01:28:14.239 --> 01:28:16.560
himself, but his parents and grandparents
were interested in so they heard plenties heard

1036
01:28:16.560 --> 01:28:20.880
plenty of stories about it, but
they were always about the strategies and the

1037
01:28:20.880 --> 01:28:26.680
politics and the technology that was used
at the time. But he really liked

1038
01:28:26.720 --> 01:28:31.840
the stories and testimonials and quotes and
everything, and then you know, filtered

1039
01:28:31.880 --> 01:28:35.159
in with the ghost stories. He
really liked that and he thought that it

1040
01:28:35.199 --> 01:28:38.880
was a really cool way to do
it, and he really enjoyed it.

1041
01:28:39.039 --> 01:28:42.119
I thought it would have been horrifying
with or without the ghosts, because it

1042
01:28:42.239 --> 01:28:45.399
was. It was an awful thing. I'm not sure that our signature brand

1043
01:28:45.399 --> 01:28:49.479
of humor added anything to the episode, but also didn't detract. So I'll

1044
01:28:49.520 --> 01:28:53.159
take a wash on that. That's
a push. We'll lead those chips on

1045
01:28:53.159 --> 01:28:57.199
the table for the next time,
and maybe we would all right, And

1046
01:28:57.520 --> 01:29:00.199
the satire of the Civil War documentary
was spot on, So thank you very

1047
01:29:00.239 --> 01:29:05.760
much, Bombardier. Yeah, I'm
glad people like that. I really was.

1048
01:29:05.840 --> 01:29:08.880
It was a it was a swing
for the fences, I think,

1049
01:29:09.079 --> 01:29:12.079
yeah, and a hit. Well. We brought a lot of runners home.

1050
01:29:12.359 --> 01:29:16.680
Yeah, yeah, game's not over
yet. Yeah, thanks for writing

1051
01:29:16.680 --> 01:29:21.119
in, and we we have one
more. Uh, we we do have

1052
01:29:21.159 --> 01:29:26.159
some that uh you know, we've
we're gonna get to We've we've mentioned this

1053
01:29:26.199 --> 01:29:30.640
before, but we've come to a
point at which and thankfully don't stop.

1054
01:29:30.840 --> 01:29:34.920
But we get more emails each week
than we could conceivably get through in an

1055
01:29:34.960 --> 01:29:40.319
episode that lasted less than three hours. So so we catch up per episode

1056
01:29:40.319 --> 01:29:43.680
as much as we can, and
then we then we really clean out the

1057
01:29:43.960 --> 01:29:46.800
mailbox with the supplementals. So that's
kind of that's going to be our our

1058
01:29:47.520 --> 01:29:49.640
back. Yeah, that's kind of
how we do that. So I know

1059
01:29:49.680 --> 01:29:53.720
sometimes that means it takes a while, and I'm sorry about that, but

1060
01:29:54.119 --> 01:29:57.159
we're also not going to be like, well, there's a lot of them,

1061
01:29:57.159 --> 01:29:59.800
So now we'll just read two at
random, you know, right.

1062
01:30:00.079 --> 01:30:01.119
Yeah, you guys take the time
to write, and we love it,

1063
01:30:01.159 --> 01:30:04.640
and so you deserved it to have
that dealt with properly. So yeah,

1064
01:30:04.680 --> 01:30:11.399
so next time we'll hear from Patty, oh furniture, do you get it?

1065
01:30:12.039 --> 01:30:19.319
Do you get it? We'll hear
something from Connor Smithing wid Ironicus has

1066
01:30:19.399 --> 01:30:24.039
written a game. Yeah, so
so we'll keep plugging through. We got

1067
01:30:24.039 --> 01:30:30.560
one more here from Debuira wouldn't talk
to the signing, And actually it's it's

1068
01:30:30.560 --> 01:30:39.239
funny because he was asking about the
al faka really yeah, because we the

1069
01:30:39.279 --> 01:30:44.319
way we were saying it, you
can't really spell it, I was.

1070
01:30:44.840 --> 01:30:50.960
I mean, we said it every
way it could be said. So um.

1071
01:30:51.000 --> 01:30:58.479
I actually I actually wrote back to
I'm probably murdering his name. I'm

1072
01:30:58.560 --> 01:31:04.960
terrible, but wrote back and provided
the spelling and stuff. And he actually

1073
01:31:05.520 --> 01:31:12.319
wrote wrote some really cool information,
oh sweet back, including some info about

1074
01:31:12.520 --> 01:31:19.000
Slenderman, because we we mentioned the
grossman, yeah in in the Slenderman episode.

1075
01:31:19.079 --> 01:31:24.239
And uh. He says he can
tell us that he's never heard of

1076
01:31:24.600 --> 01:31:29.720
anything like that before the Slender craze. And the name itself seems a bit

1077
01:31:29.760 --> 01:31:34.279
fishy to him because it sounds too
much like a literal translation of tall Man

1078
01:31:34.680 --> 01:31:39.680
into German. Oh and he says, if it was a genuine German folklore

1079
01:31:39.840 --> 01:31:44.560
name, he thinks it would have
been Langeman, which I think means the

1080
01:31:44.760 --> 01:31:47.239
long man. Well, yeah,
um, that's what I got from it.

1081
01:31:47.600 --> 01:31:51.640
And he says, Grossman simply sounds
awkward, and I think it even

1082
01:31:53.000 --> 01:31:58.319
I think it even does literally translate
into like great man. Yeah, somebody

1083
01:31:58.359 --> 01:32:01.000
who didn't know trying to make Yeah, that's cool. I like that.

1084
01:32:01.039 --> 01:32:04.319
Thanks for pointing that out. I
think I like it when people are are

1085
01:32:04.439 --> 01:32:10.920
as uh, paying attention to syntax
and word usage matters. And it's a

1086
01:32:10.920 --> 01:32:15.680
good way to smell a rat.
And yeah, and I love that.

1087
01:32:15.840 --> 01:32:19.000
And and please, you know,
to our foreign listeners, whom we love

1088
01:32:19.199 --> 01:32:24.199
dearly. Uh, if if we, you know, get anything wrong with

1089
01:32:24.279 --> 01:32:28.560
something that you know about, please
please let us know that offer does not

1090
01:32:28.600 --> 01:32:35.600
extend to accents. We're gonna get
those rats. That's intrinsically wrong. When

1091
01:32:35.640 --> 01:32:40.760
I wrote to him about the alp, haca made a lot more sense to

1092
01:32:40.840 --> 01:32:45.039
him, But he says he never
would have thought of that entity in relation

1093
01:32:45.079 --> 01:32:47.920
to hellhounds, which is interesting.
He says to him, it's more akin

1094
01:32:48.000 --> 01:32:54.079
to the alp or in certain versions
alike anthrap or like a werewolf or something.

1095
01:32:54.279 --> 01:32:58.920
I think we mentioned alps in one
of our episodes. Was it the

1096
01:32:58.960 --> 01:33:01.800
Fairies? Wouldn't No, No,
it was the fair Point Bullstone. We

1097
01:33:01.880 --> 01:33:15.680
talked about alph a lot another various
help help various Melmackians. It's just right.

1098
01:33:15.600 --> 01:33:20.079
They all just ruining old teapot.
That's uh, it's it's very interesting

1099
01:33:20.119 --> 01:33:25.840
too because in the research it mentioned
that it was a shape shifter and and

1100
01:33:25.920 --> 01:33:29.560
a lot of times it appeared as
you know, this dog that would jump

1101
01:33:29.560 --> 01:33:32.039
on people. But it sounds like
in reality it's more of a shape shifter

1102
01:33:32.159 --> 01:33:36.920
than yeah, than what that we
were like to leave. But and he

1103
01:33:36.960 --> 01:33:42.119
says, there's a local variation of
the myth right proper remis Lupin that tells

1104
01:33:42.159 --> 01:33:47.000
of a creature named boxon Wolf that
was clad in a wolf's pelt and jumped

1105
01:33:47.039 --> 01:33:51.600
onto people's backs that traveled through the
forest at night. He would let his

1106
01:33:51.680 --> 01:33:55.920
victim carry him for a short time
and then jump off again and vanish into

1107
01:33:55.960 --> 01:34:00.000
the forest. And the story goes
at one time the boxing wolf actually got

1108
01:34:00.079 --> 01:34:03.720
caught, I guess, being on
someone's back and received a severe beating from

1109
01:34:03.720 --> 01:34:09.880
the local smith. The smith was
very surprised to find one of the villagers

1110
01:34:09.920 --> 01:34:14.760
inside the fur, and it seemed
the buxen Wolfe was just a prankster that

1111
01:34:14.880 --> 01:34:17.760
delighted in giving his fellow man a
good fright and getting hit with a smith's

1112
01:34:17.760 --> 01:34:21.600
hammer right yeah, after after he
got that sucking chest wound worked on.

1113
01:34:25.640 --> 01:34:30.319
But there's there is even a statue
that had that was commissioned forty years ago

1114
01:34:30.399 --> 01:34:34.399
to commemorate the tail, and he
said he might even have to take a

1115
01:34:34.479 --> 01:34:39.479
small john to over to the statute
and snap a pictures in a TuS,

1116
01:34:39.520 --> 01:34:42.720
which would be awesome. There's a
good chance, not a good chance,

1117
01:34:42.760 --> 01:34:46.880
but there's a chance that a good
friend of mine is going to get stationed

1118
01:34:46.880 --> 01:34:50.159
in Germany, in which case I'm
going to go over there to visit him.

1119
01:34:50.520 --> 01:34:54.720
Oh yeah, look all that crazy
stuff up I can. I could

1120
01:34:54.760 --> 01:34:58.720
probably even try to tag along or
jump on your back and a wolf's pelt

1121
01:34:58.720 --> 01:35:00.880
and see how far I get too. I'm going to I'm going to learn

1122
01:35:01.399 --> 01:35:06.239
German. My plan is this,
wherever he gets stationed, just by way

1123
01:35:06.279 --> 01:35:11.399
of me trying to be a really
elaborate dick. Wherever he gets stationed,

1124
01:35:11.479 --> 01:35:16.239
I'm going to learn the language better
than he possibly could. Then when I

1125
01:35:16.279 --> 01:35:18.840
go to visit him, I'm going
to take him on a tour of the

1126
01:35:18.880 --> 01:35:25.319
place he lives. It's gonna be
so much fun, devious and delightful.

1127
01:35:25.439 --> 01:35:27.600
Yeah, I'm a son of a
bitch. And also then I learn a

1128
01:35:27.640 --> 01:35:30.800
language that's fun. Well, yeah, there's that too. Well, Doc

1129
01:35:30.279 --> 01:35:33.760
Dipiora. Yeah, thank you for
writing, Thank all of you, Thank

1130
01:35:33.800 --> 01:35:39.039
everybody. That's all we got for
for this week. Don't forget to go

1131
01:35:39.079 --> 01:35:44.359
onto iTunes and leave us a review
and some stars. What's the number of

1132
01:35:44.399 --> 01:35:48.479
stars? You probably would do well
by clicking five? No, no,

1133
01:35:48.479 --> 01:35:54.760
no, that's terrible negotiating floor.
Seven stars. You gotta leave us seven

1134
01:35:54.840 --> 01:35:59.600
stars. No, I only want
to leave you three stars. Listen,

1135
01:35:59.760 --> 01:36:02.600
I can meet you in the medal
on this, but you owe me five

1136
01:36:02.680 --> 01:36:08.359
stars? Is that fair? That's
fair? I guess see that was a

1137
01:36:08.479 --> 01:36:11.880
dramatization that didn't actually happen. We
just invented that. But that's what would

1138
01:36:11.920 --> 01:36:15.000
happen that could happen to you.
Five stars, five stars. Easy,

1139
01:36:15.039 --> 01:36:17.199
peasy, leave us a review.
