13
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:40.400
yeah. We we like to make
sure that if there's a pertinent holiday,

14
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:45.920
we'll explore that. But it occurs
to me that, um, next year,

15
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.079
like once we run through a full
three sixty five, what are we

16
00:01:49.120 --> 00:02:00.200
gonna do? Flip show? How
woween? Still weird? Isn't it to

17
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:04.599
do? Next year? But for
now the time we the hopper is full.

18
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:07.640
Yeah, we're just gonna be shooting
these paintballs of knowledge at you.

19
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:16.240
That was much like a paintball gun. Cumbersome, Yeah, fails a lot.

20
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:21.560
Yeah. So so Easter, We're
gonna tell you all about the origins

21
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:24.800
of Easter, where it comes from, the where the popular customs come from.

22
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:31.199
Everything from the bunny, the eggs, the hot cross buns, scrambled

23
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:36.520
eggs, to the scrambled eggs.
We're gonna just to track that down,

24
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:38.560
just me, you, you,
you and your popped hearts. Yeah,

25
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:43.479
yeah, that's right. Uh,
and we'll see, we'll see how it

26
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:49.759
connects to modern day Christianity. Yeah. First fun fact of Easter a floating

27
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:53.719
holiday. Oh what does that mean? Yeah, it is not. It's

28
00:02:53.719 --> 00:03:00.240
not tacked down to a specific day. It's lucy goosey bobbing and we been

29
00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:05.479
sticking and moving, floating like a
butterfly, stinging like a bee, spring

30
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:09.360
breed. Now, what are the
rules? Flora Easter is a Christian holiday.

31
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:15.479
Yep. It commemorates the resurrection of
Jesus Christ from his death on the

32
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:19.840
Sunday after his crucifixion. Yep.
This is this is for the jess and

33
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.240
nights. It also marks the end
of Lent. Yeah, because because February

34
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:28.800
and March those aren't lame enough months. Let's let's make sure you give up

35
00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:35.000
something else during those times. Easter
itself is the holiest day in the Western

36
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:38.560
Christian calendar. Yep, and is, like you said, a movable feast,

37
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:42.719
and try to ambush it. It
ain't gonna be there, no,

38
00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:45.800
no, no, no. Technically
it falls on the first Sunday after the

39
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:50.400
first full moon, after the spring
equinox, right, I said, after

40
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:54.240
a lot of nuts and well,
also, just for referenced, spring equinox

41
00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:59.639
is the same thing as the vernal
equinox. Yeah, that's even day and

42
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:05.240
that yep. Approximately. Traditionally,
this is when you see passion plays.

43
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:13.919
Eggs are colored and hidden. The
Easter bunny brings candy and you eat ham

44
00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:16.279
and hot cross buns. For some
people, it's your last chance to like

45
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:20.600
create a small horde of of peeps
and those cadberry eggs that make your teeth

46
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:24.680
hurt when you eat them. Yep, that is true. Gosh, that's

47
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:28.959
so good because it's just pure sugar. It's yeah, it's just sugar paste

48
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:33.759
inside a chocolate shell. Every Like
every other year, I decide, no,

49
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:36.319
no, I can do this.
Let me try one of those things.

50
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:40.399
And I take a bite and it's
just that where you just hang your

51
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:43.120
mouth open and try to breathe over
it because you don't want to swallow it.

52
00:04:43.160 --> 00:04:46.759
And I'm like, what have I
done? It's too much. And

53
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:50.160
I'm a sweet tooth guy and that's
just too damn much. Yeah, that's

54
00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:57.519
ridiculous. I like the little hard
cadberry eggs. Oh yeah, the Robin's

55
00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:01.399
eggs. Yeah, those are awesome
and I could gorge myself on those and

56
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:05.879
feel great about it. This week
on candy Chat, we're talking about our

57
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:10.480
favorite Easter candies. Now some of
them are's just too sweet for me.

58
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.959
No thanks, pass them on down
the line. I made a peep pie

59
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:16.160
last week. Oh you are just
get out of here. How much fun

60
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:19.439
was that? It was so much
fun about calling you up and in vatting

61
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:23.319
you over. But then I knew
you were doing stuff. Oh that's true.

62
00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:29.360
I was just too busy. But
that sounds like fun. Candy Candy

63
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:38.560
Chat, there's your bonus episode.
That's what next year's is. We just

64
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:44.759
make up altered it. You know
what thought for every single holiday. We

65
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:48.240
could do an episode of candy Chat. That's true. You know, we

66
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:53.839
burned at Halloween and that that's the
that's the biggest candy seller of the year,

67
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:57.879
Easter being second only to Halloween.
So yeah, candy Chat is coming

68
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:02.360
up, you guys Allentine's Day,
Chris smiss, I mean not so much

69
00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:12.439
Thanksgiving. I guess that's a savory
holiday. Welcome to gravy Log this week

70
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:17.000
on gravy Lock. Whoa what talking
us like brown or white grave? Yeah,

71
00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:20.720
we got turkey gravy. We got
the kind of gravy you get with

72
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:27.600
your sausage of biscuits. What's a
gravy white gravy? We will never do

73
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:31.000
gravy log, but candy Chat,
No, don't write that one off just

74
00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:38.720
yet. Easter begins with the tradition
of celebrating the spring equinox at the end

75
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:43.560
of winter, which you know,
all intents and purposes, that's the dead

76
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:49.040
season, yep, and uh.
It symbolizes the importance of fertility and reproduction

77
00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:55.759
and the rebirth of life. The
that's the tradition of celebrating all that junk

78
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:59.759
in the springtime. Can we get
a kind of like a soul sounds of

79
00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:05.399
this seventies sexy Berry White reproductive rights
of spring sound. I'll rehash that thing

80
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:09.879
I used in the uh the Ghost
Story episode. You could probably just still

81
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:15.800
use the spring Hill jack slap because
it's going on. There's some subtext.

82
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:18.279
There's I'll try the I'll try the
sexy stuff, and I'll say this again,

83
00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:27.000
all right. It symbolizes the importance
of fertility and reproduction and the rebirth.

84
00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:34.519
Oh baby, yeah, I've been
waiting on winter gettility is wrapping up

85
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:38.560
in blankets. I spent the last
forty days giving up thinking about you.

86
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:43.480
Oh but that's all over now.
I cheated, though. Don't tell Jesus

87
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:46.160
when we find it to the bay. We made it through lift together,

88
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:57.519
Okay. Great. Perhaps the earliest
reference to such a holiday comes from Babylon

89
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:03.040
circa twenty four hundred BC e In
the city of Ur, there was a

90
00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:09.040
celebration dedicated to the moon and spring
equinox in around March and April. There's

91
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:15.439
also the belief that Judaism derived spring
celebrations of the Feast of Weeks and Passover

92
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:20.959
partly from the Babylonian holiday, due
to the fact that so many Jews were

93
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:24.279
being held captive by the Babylonian Empire
at the time, and they just kind

94
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:26.959
of were like, well, you
know, we used to do this all

95
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:30.480
the time. I didn't hate it. Yeah, I think so. Yeah,

96
00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:33.879
it kind of meshed into their traditions. And I also think that there's

97
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:39.879
a there's a there's so many religions
that have a right of spring that it

98
00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:43.600
was an important part. I mean, no matter where you are or who

99
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.480
you worship, the end of winter
and the start of spring, that's that's

100
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:50.759
a big transition. Yeah, exactly. So you're gonna get that. You

101
00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:54.279
know, you're going to see everyone
doing something. So like if there was

102
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.039
a day every year that a volcano
erupted, everyone on the planet would have

103
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:03.639
a volcano day. Yeah, I
who wish there was? Oh man too

104
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:07.399
late, first opposition. The time
for wish discussion has passed. That was

105
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:11.559
last episode. You had your chance, and you blew in it all.

106
00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:20.159
One key aspect that many of the
spring religious festivals had with each other was

107
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.720
the death and rebirth of a god
at that time of the year. Some

108
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:28.200
of the names of the gods that
you might hear associated with this would be

109
00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:35.840
atis Osiris, Orpheus, Dionysius,
Dialysis, Tamus, and Mithra Shammos.

110
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:43.320
Some of those are are pretty familiar. Homothra, Yeah, some of those

111
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.519
are pretty familiar now. Etymologically,
the name Easter has been traced to a

112
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:54.879
couple of sources, some correctly,
some not smatch, not smatch. Contemporary

113
00:09:54.960 --> 00:10:03.320
paganism celebrates a festival called Ostara,
derived from the Anglo Saxon lunar goddess Eostra.

114
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:07.879
Another name for for that god in
some parts was Ostara, so that's

115
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:13.799
kind of a direct derivation of that. But anyway, the name ultimately is

116
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:22.679
a variation on other prominent goddesses of
ancient times, including Ishtar Astarte or Isis

117
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.360
Yep, yep. And we're gonna
come We're gonna come back around on that,

118
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.080
because I mean, if you if
you think that's the last you've heard

119
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:33.360
of Ishtar, then you're wrong.
If you're just wrong, and shame on

120
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:39.279
you. Why I even think And
we're not discussing the Dustin Hoffman famous as

121
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:43.440
being the worst movie ever made.
Movie. I haven't seen it. Nobody

122
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:48.759
has good. Eastra was a goddess
of the dawn and fertility. And if

123
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:52.320
that name sounds sort of familiar,
good. Here's a hint. We derive

124
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:58.039
the term estrogen from that. Oh, there are there are a couple of

125
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.519
ways that there are a couple.
Yeah, there are a couple of ways

126
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:07.799
that that name is pronounced. Some
some cultures pronounce it esther. Yeah,

127
00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:11.480
even though it's spelled E O S
t R E. Yeah. But but

128
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:16.559
it's got the line over the e. So you know what that means.

129
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:20.440
Yastra's feast day was held on the
first full moon after the vernal equinox.

130
00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:28.039
Sound familiar just a little bit,
So here is. I'm gonna tell you

131
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:33.480
a couple of quick stories based on
these goddesses that we named, and they're

132
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:43.879
they're pretty interesting because these are basically
laying the foundation for what modern Christians celebrate

133
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:48.559
or observe every Easter. Let me
just let me just back the truck up

134
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:52.799
over that when you heard something go
thump thump under the tires. This is

135
00:11:52.840 --> 00:12:00.559
the oh no, the Easter money
where we just claimed here are the other

136
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:03.879
religions that are the foundation for the
religion that happens to be popular. Now,

137
00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:11.600
well, we're gonna get killed by
a guy who doesn't believe an abortion

138
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:18.159
death by irony. Oh, I
mean part of the reason that I wanted

139
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:24.080
to do an Easter podcast, a
podcast all about what Easter truly, because

140
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:31.480
you just non people with faith.
I love finding out the truth behind some

141
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:35.840
of this stuff. No, it
is super interesting and I will never deny

142
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:41.080
anyone their faith. I was a
person of faith myself for a long time.

143
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.000
I would even still say that I
am. But you know, like

144
00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:50.600
it is not difficult to see where
there's a timeline here and where where one

145
00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:54.200
region's beliefs influence another regions beliefs,
and these are worth looking into. These

146
00:12:54.200 --> 00:13:01.240
are interesting things. It doesn't erode, it doesn't otherwise damage the validity of

147
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.440
your beliefs. But we are organisms
that have all been hanging around each other

148
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:09.679
for a long time. It's it's
it's asinine to think that the Babylonians didn't,

149
00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:13.879
you know, somehow intermingle with the
Greeks. And you know, like

150
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:16.159
there's so I like that. Thank
you very much. David Florda, Oh

151
00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:20.120
you're you're welcome. Yeah, it's
not that I'm trying to say either that,

152
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:26.399
oh, you're wrong in what you
believe, you idiot. What I'm

153
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:28.320
trying to say is he's writing on
dryer raseboard, right now, but I

154
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:31.399
am that's what he's. No,
we don't have a dry erase board.

155
00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:35.519
We don't have the budget for that. Yeah, but I just, uh,

156
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:39.440
I think it's important to know where
your beliefs come from, because you

157
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:43.120
know, this stuff wasn't wasn't taught
to me. I went to church for

158
00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:46.679
a while growing up. You know, I've got a solid foundation in religious

159
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:56.240
beliefs, in religious attendance. Um. But just coming across this stuff,

160
00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:00.960
it's interesting, and I think I
agree, the more knowledge that's out there

161
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:03.320
about it the better. And if
at this point, if you you know,

162
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:09.840
if you're a fervent believer in the
Christianity, then you'll you might find

163
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.480
this interesting and say yeah, great, now I know where it comes from.

164
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:16.279
I'm still gonna yeah, explore it, agree with it or disagree with

165
00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:18.399
it, but it's it's good to
know. And then say, oh,

166
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:22.279
well, I think that David Flora
was kind of wrong about that because of

167
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:26.759
this and I know Greek because we
don't, or maybe David Flora made a

168
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:31.039
really good point there. I wish
Dave Stecco would swear less. Yeah,

169
00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:37.799
or when are they going to do
that candy chat that sounded awesome? Or

170
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.399
you might not say anything, and
you might just sharpen your knives. Yeah,

171
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:43.000
yeah, you do it with a
knife if you mean it. How

172
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:46.600
personal? All right, so let's
get back on the train now that we've

173
00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:54.519
stopped and gotten some coffee. It's
true, we just jumped off the train

174
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:58.480
for a while. All right,
back on board. We had a layover

175
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:03.120
in Atlanta. Hope everyone enjoyed.
So let me tell you the story of

176
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:09.759
Ishtar and Temus. So this come
goes all the way back to pretty much

177
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:13.480
the first recorded history that we have. Tamous was the son of the sun

178
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:20.960
god Ball and a consort of Ishtar, who was called the Queen of Heaven.

179
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:24.320
One day, while hunting, he
was killed by a boar. He's

180
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:28.120
like Robert Pray, Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was a good We'll

181
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:33.840
pull that nerd card on. But
yeah, that's so. That's the noise.

182
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.840
That's the noise my brain makes when
I'm talking about nerds. Ishtar told

183
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:43.399
their worshippers that Temus had ascended to
heaven to be with his father, and

184
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:48.320
they would be with the people as
father, son and sacred flame or spirit.

185
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:54.879
Mm weird home. That smells a
little trinidesque, trinidy ish Trinidish Tamoo's

186
00:15:56.240 --> 00:16:00.679
was killed around the winter solstice,
and Ishtar traveled to the underworld to resurrect

187
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:06.559
him, which took about three months. When she got there, Temus came

188
00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:10.399
back to life and with him the
vegetation and the life, for he was

189
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:15.720
also a god of vegetation, growth, things like that, agriculture. In

190
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:21.240
observance, worshipers held a forty day
period prior to the equinox where they could

191
00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:26.279
eat no meat and they meditated for
a while. Stories like this are similar

192
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:32.159
in many of the ancient cultures,
and most notably one that's that's a lot

193
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:36.960
like that is the story of Isis
Sonosiris in Egypt. So that's cool.

194
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:41.519
I've got another version of it.
Okay, that is still it's still Samarian,

195
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:47.919
but this version the names are changed, but the problems are the same.

196
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:52.799
Ishtar is called Anana in this one
an Temus is called Dumuzi. What

197
00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:59.879
that's that's what the dude's name,
And actually I mean Dumuzi and Temu's pretty

198
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.200
pretty similar. Okay. So in
this one, Demuzi dies and in Anna

199
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:10.400
mourns the loss. She descends into
the underworld after him and has to pass

200
00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:15.839
through seven gates, and she must
leave an article of clothing behind at each

201
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:21.839
gate until she's completely naked and humbled
when she gets through the seventh gate.

202
00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:26.559
Now, once she's through there,
she faces her sister, Irishkagal, the

203
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:30.759
ruler of the underworld. Irishkagal was
angered that she came down there, and

204
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:36.680
she killed in Anna and hung her
up on a stake, and with the

205
00:17:36.759 --> 00:17:41.680
help from another god, Ananna was
resurrected after three days and nights, and

206
00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:45.559
for conquering death, in Anna was
worshiped as the queen of Heaven. So

207
00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:49.440
that's got some aspects in it that
are that are familiar as well. Yeah,

208
00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:56.640
that's pretty ish tartacular, But isn't
it. Isn't it funny how how

209
00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:02.319
these stories they come from all over
the place, but they all kind of

210
00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:06.440
share similarities. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, exactly. You've got this the

211
00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:11.640
same thematic content. You have h
into some degrees, just a swapping of

212
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:17.839
names, but the story largely remains
the same. And it's actually very interesting

213
00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:22.720
that this is like the the the
These these some of the oldest documented religions

214
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:26.200
that we that we understand well,
but at the same time, they don't

215
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.119
directly sound like what we're used to, right, right, there's there's definitely,

216
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:33.079
there's definitely, and I'm looking forward
to getting to this point where there's

217
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:37.359
this changeover in the narrative. There's
no direct descent into Hell, there's no

218
00:18:38.519 --> 00:18:42.839
you know those things that that change
over when you get to the more the

219
00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:48.440
Christian story of of Easter of the
Resurrection, right, and that we've seen

220
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:53.880
that happen before in some of the
things that we talked about, where religions

221
00:18:55.319 --> 00:19:00.240
take on the pagan traditions and customs
and practices and say, hey, you

222
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:04.279
guys like celebrating the stuff. That's
funny. Jesus likes this too. Yeah,

223
00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:08.119
yeah, the church was exceptionally good
at that. I live in Ecuador

224
00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:11.960
for a little while and I got
to go to this cathedral in the capital,

225
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:18.079
Keith, though, and it is
this cathedral is super old, and

226
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:22.119
I believe, I mean it goes
back to the sixteen hundreds and you could

227
00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:27.319
you could see on the walls the
uh, the sun god glyphs. Again.

228
00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:33.960
This this this habit of incorporating local
religions and saying oh, oh,

229
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:36.279
well, no, you guys,
I mean, you guys got part of

230
00:19:36.279 --> 00:19:38.480
the story. I mean, yeah, soun's important. But but let me

231
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:42.960
tell you the whole deal. You
know, like that that that inclusion and

232
00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:47.400
in conversion by inclusion, Yeah,
exact, you know, and that's it

233
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:49.400
was. It's really it's an interesting
thing and is you know, in in

234
00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:52.680
the more scientific term of a meme, not like an Internet meme, but

235
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:57.160
like a of a of an idea
as an organism that is a that is

236
00:19:57.200 --> 00:20:00.400
a hell of an advantage to have. Yeah, when you have that ability

237
00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:07.319
to to uh subsume a culture and
just sort of slowly turn it over time

238
00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:08.720
by saying, oh no, yeah, we're we're okay with that, bring

239
00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:14.599
that in, you know, and
using that to to to to foster your

240
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:17.279
own belief system. And that's that's
a heck of a trick. Yeah,

241
00:20:17.319 --> 00:20:21.240
it's a very effective one. As
every single subjugated culture can tell you,

242
00:20:21.559 --> 00:20:25.319
or they can't because they're subjugated.
They by the time they can tell you,

243
00:20:25.359 --> 00:20:27.119
they don't know they can tell you, right, it's yeah, it

244
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:33.480
osmoses the beliefs into each other.
Yeah. Uh so that's that's some of

245
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:37.000
the history kind of of of Eastern
and like you said, where the where

246
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:41.759
the name comes from, the easter, the Goddess of the Dawn and fertility,

247
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:45.400
things like that, the Anglo Saxons, you know that down down through

248
00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:51.240
the ages, it wasn't a stretch
to come up with with Easter from Yoster

249
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:56.160
or Esther anything like that. Let's
talk about some of the customs and traditions

250
00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:02.359
that go on around the Easter holidays, ye, and go through where some

251
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:07.880
of those come from. Because I
don't remember bunnies laying eggs in the babble

252
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:11.880
A lot of people, a lot
of people don't remember Jesus fighting a dragon

253
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:18.000
either. That's true. Which you
guys, we're gonna get t shirts.

254
00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:22.440
It's gonna be so sweet. So
let's start out with the big one,

255
00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:30.079
the big old number one, yeah
headed player, the Easter Bunny. I

256
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:34.400
think wait, I think that we
absolutely can use the spring hill Jack sound,

257
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:38.839
the jack, the spring Hill Jack
slap, except for instead of a

258
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:55.799
slap, that's what's the sound of
an egg being given? Yeah, yeah,

259
00:21:56.000 --> 00:22:03.960
eggs. So so you gotta you
gotta, you gotta phrase it up.

260
00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:07.680
It's got to be a title.
Okay, oh man, Well,

261
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:10.559
okay, then we can't have a
spring and heel jack slap. But I

262
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:14.759
think we can. I think we
can work this out. Let's have um

263
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:29.079
cotton tail egg, egg handing,
egg giving outing easter, not slap that.

264
00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:33.680
Thank you for making this sound way
better than me trying to describe this

265
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:41.359
sound. It was like I was
like I was suddenly English as a second

266
00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.599
language and drunk. It took longer
to put that sound together than it did

267
00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:52.599
put the episode together. Well,
we all appreciate it, So the easter

268
00:22:52.680 --> 00:22:55.319
bunny. Let me tell you another
story here. Okay, stories are fun.

269
00:22:55.960 --> 00:23:00.480
One year that got us. Astara
arrived late for spring and saw a

270
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:06.039
bird whose wings had been frozen by
the as yet unthawed snow. What taken

271
00:23:06.359 --> 00:23:10.240
pity on it since it was her
fault. Ostara turned him into a hair

272
00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:15.400
and gave him super speed to protect
him from hunters. Nice in remembrance of

273
00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:21.440
his earlier bird form, she gave
him the ability to lay eggs in all

274
00:23:21.640 --> 00:23:26.519
colors of the rainbow, but only
one day a year. Hm, But

275
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:30.359
how do you come up with that? Well, listen, I know that

276
00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:33.200
you were a bird and now you're
a rabbit. But I gotta, I

277
00:23:33.200 --> 00:23:36.359
mean, I gotta try to make
this right, right, I mean,

278
00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:38.559
we gotta acknowledge that you were once
a bird. And there's no better way

279
00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:44.160
I know of than having you poop
out eggs only one one day a year

280
00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:48.279
though, and also the eggs are
very colorful, though everyone will know it

281
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:52.519
was you that did it. You're
the only egg pooping rabbit. If you

282
00:23:52.599 --> 00:23:55.680
got turned into a dog, you, Dave Stecco, If you got turned

283
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:57.920
into a dog, Okay, wouldn't
you want at least one day a year

284
00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:03.279
where you could just drink as much
beer as you wanted. Every a dog

285
00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:10.359
can drink beer every day. That's
a terrible example. Great And also what

286
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:11.960
is the beer all the colors of
the rainbow? Or do I pee all

287
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:18.680
the colors of the rainbow? Oh
my god, that would be so great.

288
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:21.160
But the day that I'm allowed to
do it has to be in the

289
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:23.920
winter so that I can write my
multi colored name in snow banks everywhere,

290
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:29.599
Oh my god. And then the
children will start to make multi colored snow

291
00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:33.640
men. It'll be like Hawaiian ice
comes back in the winter. Yeah,

292
00:24:33.680 --> 00:24:37.319
but it's all urine. Oh my
god, that's brilliant. People will start

293
00:24:37.359 --> 00:24:45.559
taking drugs that change the color of
their pea to celebrate dog's miss or or

294
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:51.480
or or Dave David and tide stick
Wayne ste oh Man, Well that makes

295
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:56.000
me sound like a rapper. Um, I love this. Well, let's

296
00:24:56.079 --> 00:25:00.279
let's invent a holiday where you drink
as much beer as you want and then

297
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:07.359
you just try to pee in all
the colors of the rainbow. That's what

298
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:10.680
I get for trying to trying to
make a no example, that's a great

299
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:14.119
example. Because I'm going to look
into this. There has to be like

300
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:18.440
some company like that's like, hey, fool, your friends turn their urine

301
00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:22.039
purple. All right, let's let's
do that. Yeah, I'm doing it.

302
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:26.160
I am what. You could just
swallow those pellets that you get in

303
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:30.920
the egg coloring kids. Yeah,
but that doesn't change your urin's color.

304
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:34.599
I don't think I know that there
are like antibiotics. They are like actual

305
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:37.480
prescription things that will change the color
of your urine, But I don't know

306
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:45.960
if they're available over the counter or
OTC. Rabbits were natural symbols moving on.

307
00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:51.880
Rabbits were natural symbols of fertility and
speed and luck, yeah and fun.

308
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:57.480
Fact, medieval Christians considered them bad
because they thought that which is could

309
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:03.240
be turned into them, or go
around which is turned into rabbits and go

310
00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:06.200
around and sucked the milk out of
cows. That's that was one of their

311
00:26:06.200 --> 00:26:10.000
beliefs. That's a crazy belief.
Well, yeah, you know, there's

312
00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:11.799
there's a reason that it was called
the Dark Ages, right. There's also

313
00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:17.680
this thing called the three hair pattern
that was used as sort of a trinity

314
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.279
depiction and to two Pai and to
two Pai it was it was three rabbits

315
00:26:22.319 --> 00:26:25.839
in a circle where they were kind
of interlocked, and it's and it was

316
00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:30.759
found in churches all throughout Europe.
Boom. Yeah, I don't usually bring

317
00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:33.400
the don't I don't. Yeah,
I don't usually bring the hard facts like

318
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:36.400
that. So let's enjoy that.
Let's just savor it, because everything I

319
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:38.880
have to say from here on out
is all crazy town. And next time

320
00:26:38.880 --> 00:26:47.680
I'm on candy chat hard candy facts. Also the you know, the fertility

321
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:52.079
and just having sex a lot and
popping out a bunch of babies. Right.

322
00:26:52.119 --> 00:26:56.279
It was looked down upon by medieval
Christians as well, So which is

323
00:26:56.319 --> 00:26:59.319
crazy? I mean, like I
mean, Jonathan Colton did a great song

324
00:26:59.359 --> 00:27:03.680
of explaining what you do in springtime. Anybody heard the song first of may

325
00:27:04.480 --> 00:27:08.160
look it up, do yourself a
huge favor. Why don't look it up.

326
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:14.920
Why don't you do them a favor
and give us a taste? You

327
00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.920

00:27:56.319 --> 00:28:02.599
face, Flora. I just got

334
00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:07.079
would Mike drop you right now.
But we just got them, and that

335
00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:14.079
is not respectful or careful. And
yeah, don't don't. Don't corner this

336
00:28:14.200 --> 00:28:18.880
mong goose. Who is it,
Robbie Coltrane, It was George Clinton.

337
00:28:19.039 --> 00:28:25.759
No, Jonathan Colton. Oh,
if you if you are enjoying this podcast,

338
00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:27.759
there's no way on earth you gotta
help you. If you're enjoining it,

339
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:33.480
you would not There's no way on
earth you would not love Jonathan Colton.

340
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:36.400
Go check him out. He's a
great guy. Okay, cool,

341
00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:41.400
Let's move on to eggs. Eggs
for eggs. See the East Brunny that

342
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:45.200
we just talked about. Yeah.
See also multi colored eggs. Obviously eggs

343
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:52.079
symbols of fertility and rebirths. Yep. Originally they were all died rid Yeah

344
00:28:52.559 --> 00:28:57.960
for the lifeblood. Yeah, symbol
hunting eggs. Now, that's that's kind

345
00:28:57.960 --> 00:29:03.079
of a mystery is to that got
started. But there's a couple of sources

346
00:29:03.119 --> 00:29:07.960
that could come from could come from
ritual hair hunts that were practiced by Anglo

347
00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:14.519
Saxons during Astara, the festival of
Ostara. Also could be from the Burning

348
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:21.960
times when authorities would apparently use kids
to lead them to practitioners of old religion,

349
00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:27.480
like six or eight, like seven
year old with leashes, just all

350
00:29:32.079 --> 00:29:41.200
yeah, yeah, you got the
sint. The kids listen, they just

351
00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:51.880
swarm the witch over No no,
no, no, no no no yeah.

352
00:29:51.960 --> 00:29:56.440
Those kids good individually. Don't let
them swarm. Oh. You know

353
00:29:56.480 --> 00:30:03.799
another another fun fact about eggs.
They are the devil's testicles, are they

354
00:30:03.839 --> 00:30:10.680
really? I've been putting them in
my mouth so much high in protein,

355
00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:15.720
also high and sin high and sin
no, there is there is And I

356
00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:19.119
mean this should be a shock to
no one. But there's a huge backlash

357
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:27.880
against Easter who from Christians who say
that that Um Easter is not canonical,

358
00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:33.359
it is not from the Bible.
It is a made up liars festival.

359
00:30:33.720 --> 00:30:38.119
It's it's part of Satan's plan to
to undermine the Christian faith and to get

360
00:30:38.200 --> 00:30:45.519
people to inadvertently worship him. I
don't think it is physically possible to inadvertently

361
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:51.400
worship a god. You are literally
in your mind saying who you're worshiping?

362
00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:55.160
Right, you know, it's it's
not like it's not like the Mystery Machine

363
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:57.839
and the the you know, Jesus
rips off his mask and it's old man

364
00:30:57.960 --> 00:31:04.279
McCreevy saying thank you for your prayers
for I did get order. Yeah.

365
00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:10.559
But yeah, there's there's a lot
of people who are very very against uh

366
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:15.440
Christmas Easter. They say that,
you know, because of the pagan the

367
00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:19.319
parts of the pagan religions that we're
incorporated, Yeah, incorporated, thank you,

368
00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:23.880
uh into those those holidays and so
and I've got, I mean,

369
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:32.160
so many magnificent sources here, and
I'm gonna go straight to the most unimpeachable

370
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:34.160
source. And uh, I did
this last time, and I loved it

371
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:38.759
so much that it's gonna be my
regular go to for factual data. We're

372
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:45.799
Gandhi. Yahoo answers, this is
this is great? Is Easter based on

373
00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:49.720
the goddess Ishtar? The best answer
chosen by voters. Oh it's a democratic

374
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:59.559
Oh uh? Is Easter is a
pagan holiday honoring the Queen of Heaven goddess

375
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:04.559
Ishtar, not a Christian holy day. These people really really get into it.

376
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:08.160
There's a whole lot of slap fights. Yeah, yeah, it's crazy

377
00:32:08.599 --> 00:32:13.200
pagan. I was told that it
was based on a German goddess of fertility.

378
00:32:14.160 --> 00:32:19.079
Yeah, it's people are really really
down on it. I've got my

379
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:24.359
friend Al Perez wants you to know
that it is all again, it's based

380
00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:30.839
on the Babylonian Ishtar, and that
we are serving Satan every time we accidentally

381
00:32:31.799 --> 00:32:37.680
give them props A technically your real
friend. No he's not. Just wrote

382
00:32:37.759 --> 00:32:45.960
the article. Bro Daryl checks in
with this. Christians are not following the

383
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:50.720
Most High at all. They don't
keep the law and commandments, they don't

384
00:32:50.759 --> 00:32:54.079
celebrate the feasts of the Most High. They participate in pagan feasts such as

385
00:32:54.200 --> 00:32:59.920
Christmas, Eastern New Year's, Saint
Valentine's Day. You people don't need to

386
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:04.000
become a Christian, You need to
repent of your sins and serve the most

387
00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:07.640
high by reading what he says,
and to do it, I can I

388
00:33:07.759 --> 00:33:13.640
just say something, you please,
that the feast of New Year's usually is

389
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:21.599
a quarter pounder fries. So oh, no, bro Ham or whatever your

390
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:23.359
name was. Yeah, I don't
know about the feast of New Years.

391
00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:30.640
I usually I usually get up a
heaping platter of loneliness and chase that down

392
00:33:30.759 --> 00:33:36.319
with whatever liquor I find in the
house. That's how I celebrate the feast

393
00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:40.519
of New Years. Another gentleman wants
us to all understand that people must realize

394
00:33:40.559 --> 00:33:45.200
that the Beast is Rome and as
per Daniel chapter seven. In Revelation chapter

395
00:33:45.319 --> 00:33:54.920
thirteen, the whole world is worshiping
the first Beast of Babylon. So dude,

396
00:33:55.799 --> 00:33:59.640
let's you should reply to that and
be like, hey, we got

397
00:33:59.720 --> 00:34:02.359
a two part apocalypse, right.
It talks all about exactly. I'll set

398
00:34:02.400 --> 00:34:06.720
you straight. I think the worst
thing we could do is reply to any

399
00:34:06.799 --> 00:34:10.960
of these. But you know,
but the moral of the story is is

400
00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:15.880
that there is a huge backlash against
Easter and Christmas, you know, and

401
00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:22.400
just briefly that Christmas, Santa Satan
is boring, but Easter is what people

402
00:34:22.599 --> 00:34:27.639
really get upset about. It's what
people are really in this this ishtar thing,

403
00:34:27.760 --> 00:34:29.840
and they they'll just say things.
It's like, oh yeah, no,

404
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:32.960
ishtar used to be pronounced Easter.
That's how you pronounce it. That's

405
00:34:34.039 --> 00:34:37.199
not true. Yeah. You know, when I was doing the research for

406
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:43.480
this, it was incredibly hard to
sift through the very biased opinions that were

407
00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:49.559
exactly what you're talking about in order
to find some factual, historical information some

408
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:53.800
of this stuff. This is how
teamwork works, David Flora. Because I

409
00:34:54.039 --> 00:35:00.599
was doing the perfect polar opposite.
I smelled fact and I ran the opposite

410
00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:05.039
way. I mean, I all
I want is the most biased, most

411
00:35:05.159 --> 00:35:10.400
fervent, frothy mouthed opinions that anyone
can just all caps hammer into a forum

412
00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:15.679
or a website or or a YouTube
video comments section. It's good we get

413
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:20.119
that balance that way. Oh yeah, yeah, I like to balance fact

414
00:35:20.199 --> 00:35:24.719
with nuts. That's that's Those are
the two sides, right. Do you

415
00:35:25.159 --> 00:35:30.360
do you have any more egg stories? Nope, We're moving on. Then

416
00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:34.360
let me get I'm sorry it was
the devil's testicles not enough. I don't

417
00:35:34.360 --> 00:35:37.679
know, man, you kept going. I guess it wasn't. Yahoo answers,

418
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:43.800
which which are the devil's testicles?
In right, you need to let

419
00:35:43.880 --> 00:35:46.599
you got to let the people choose
the facts they want to believe. Let

420
00:35:46.679 --> 00:35:52.920
me talk about lilies. Lilies are
popular with Easter. Yeah, the floral

421
00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:59.559
emblem of Iastra, remember her whose
breast milk caused the first lily to spring

422
00:35:59.639 --> 00:36:07.719
forth mouth sounds. It's considered the
female cup holding the divine essence of life.

423
00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:14.760
Really well, it may have a
mistaken connection to the flower parts sepals,

424
00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:21.360
which collectively are called the klex,
which actually means husk or wrapping,

425
00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:29.679
but is often confused with klyx spelled
differently, the first klyx cl y x

426
00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:35.920
and the second calyx spelled c al
i x, which means cup or goblet

427
00:36:36.039 --> 00:36:38.840
and is where we get the term
chalice. Oh okay, so there's a

428
00:36:38.960 --> 00:36:43.559
little little mistaken connection. And I
hope you guys are really enjoying all the

429
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:45.519
etymology we're getting into on this one, don't you love it? Yeah?

430
00:36:45.559 --> 00:36:51.960
I'm into it. Next on candy
Chat, that's I'm making t shirts for

431
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:59.119
candy Chat. The etymology of sweet
tarts. What's a tart? And where

432
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:04.079
that name? I mean sweet?
That just sells itself. Who was the

433
00:37:04.199 --> 00:37:07.679
genius that said, I'm gonna make
some tartan this sweetheart? Ain't that redundant?

434
00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:13.119
Now a lot of people think that, But you're wrong. You're wrong,

435
00:37:16.280 --> 00:37:23.199
Oh, Candy Chad. One more
thing with lilies sacred to the ancient

436
00:37:23.280 --> 00:37:30.639
Canaanite goddess, a Starte, who
also bore the name Lilith. Also a

437
00:37:30.760 --> 00:37:37.239
Starte went by the name a start
Just throwing that in there, you're just

438
00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:40.440
baiting me, and I'm not going
for that now. Also, historically,

439
00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:47.320
lilies are are grave flower. They're
they're a very strong odor or scent if

440
00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:53.320
you enjoy it. People know what
well I mean, odor has a negative

441
00:37:53.360 --> 00:37:59.639
connotation because I hate how they smell. But if you like lilies, then

442
00:37:59.679 --> 00:38:05.199
it's a scent. Okay, And
you're wrong. But Easter lilies were often

443
00:38:05.280 --> 00:38:07.400
found, um they you know,
especially for the you know, hundreds and

444
00:38:07.519 --> 00:38:10.840
hundreds and hundreds of years, as
many as six of those six hundred years.

445
00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:15.960
They would keep lilies near the body
because you know, there was no

446
00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:19.719
embalming or anything like that. The
composition would start so to sort of mask

447
00:38:19.840 --> 00:38:24.920
the odor of the deceased. So
lilies were often incorporated in funerals. So

448
00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:30.159
there's there's a lot of historical precedent
for the appearance of the Easter Lily nice.

449
00:38:30.199 --> 00:38:35.159
Did you ever eat a Ham for
Easter? I I mean, man,

450
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:37.559
I don't. I don't want to
undercut you here, but I never

451
00:38:37.719 --> 00:38:40.119
did. We're not a Ham family. You're not undercutting me. I don't

452
00:38:40.159 --> 00:38:44.519
remember what the hell we ate.
We ate a bunch of can yeah,

453
00:38:44.679 --> 00:38:46.800
yeah, that's all I remember,
is just chocolate. I mean, I

454
00:38:46.920 --> 00:38:52.360
guess I shame where Ham comes into
play. But brunch, We're a brunching

455
00:38:52.480 --> 00:38:55.639
family. I remember a lot of
bacon out of steam trays, a lot

456
00:38:55.719 --> 00:38:58.880
of a lot of French toast.
Oh yeah, a lot of syrup,

457
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:01.519
but that really running syrup because it's
so hot. Oh yeah, it's like

458
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:05.280
water. Yeah yeah. I don't
know how I feel about that. I

459
00:39:05.360 --> 00:39:08.400
mean, neither Ham not cool for
Jews and Muslims, so Christians for the

460
00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:15.679
wind Muslim kryptonite. Pagans would use
up the last of their preserved winter meats

461
00:39:16.000 --> 00:39:21.000
in the form of I guess you
know, slean pigs and yeah, cured

462
00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:23.280
salt park yeah yeah, and in
their spring festival. So whatever they have

463
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:28.320
left in the old smokehouse bring it
out. Yeah, they'll not gnauch on

464
00:39:28.400 --> 00:39:30.840
it. Put it in the steam
tray, take it to the omelet station.

465
00:39:35.159 --> 00:39:38.360
It could have I think it maybe
could have some ties to Tamuz's death,

466
00:39:38.760 --> 00:39:42.079
you know, because he got killed
by the boar. No, okay,

467
00:39:42.280 --> 00:39:47.239
I like that. That's just another
crossover that I'm throwing in, putting

468
00:39:47.280 --> 00:39:51.280
the putting the piece of yarn between
those two. Yeah. Do you want

469
00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:53.239
to know a fun fact about boars
that I learned today? Okay, truth,

470
00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:57.920
This is a true fact, so
that there is a I hate those

471
00:39:58.119 --> 00:40:01.920
stupid false facts. As a medieval
weapon called a bore sword that was used

472
00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:07.079
to hunt bares, a lot of
people would use spears and stops because a

473
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:09.639
bore when it starts to charge,
will not stop. So if you have

474
00:40:09.719 --> 00:40:14.480
a sword and you go to stab
it, it'll run itself right up the

475
00:40:14.599 --> 00:40:19.400
sword and still whoop your ass and
then die. But not until it kicks

476
00:40:19.440 --> 00:40:22.840
your ass. Sure, So they
made these things called boor swords. They

477
00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:27.440
were very long, like four foot
swords with a cross piece about two feet

478
00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:30.679
up, so that the boar could
only get so high up the sword and

479
00:40:30.719 --> 00:40:32.679
then it would hit this cross piece
and stop. How amazing is that.

480
00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:36.840
Yeah, well it's utilitarian for sure. Yeah. I didn't think i'd get

481
00:40:36.880 --> 00:40:43.360
to say that today because I just
learned it bores bores thanks podcasts. So

482
00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:46.760
that's ham there are. Did you
ever get to gifts as a kid for

483
00:40:46.880 --> 00:40:50.400
you Easter? Know it? Do
you know? I still remember my favorite

484
00:40:50.440 --> 00:40:53.519
Easter basket gift because we didn't go
too crazy. You just got like one

485
00:40:53.639 --> 00:40:58.719
little thing in an Easter basket.
I had two favorite things. One year

486
00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:01.840
I got Yoda, a Yoda Star
Wars action figure, and another year I

487
00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:08.960
got Roadblock g I Joe Roadblock and
that was awesome. I think my favorite

488
00:41:09.199 --> 00:41:16.119
gift babe the movie Oh really yeah, Dottle Doo Pigottle Doo Pig. I

489
00:41:16.239 --> 00:41:20.960
watched the hell out of that.
Did it make you feel bad about the

490
00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:24.400
ham? We didn't need ham?
Oh? Okay, so no, sweet

491
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:30.960
when that would be particularly cruel of
your parents, here's your movie. Now

492
00:41:30.039 --> 00:41:37.760
you just watch that while we get
lunch ready, slice slice? Um?

493
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:46.400
So, how am I not gonna
do that to my kids? Pig roast

494
00:41:49.119 --> 00:41:52.000
man. That's just awful. You
can't do that to kids. Well,

495
00:41:52.159 --> 00:41:54.719
you can do what you want.
You can make them take you to witches

496
00:41:54.719 --> 00:42:01.199
if you want. Some Pagans gave
gifts and food to kids in honor of

497
00:42:01.320 --> 00:42:06.079
having a good planting season coming up. Okay, good good crops and all

498
00:42:06.119 --> 00:42:08.880
that, and to show the gods
that the kids were growing strong and important.

499
00:42:09.800 --> 00:42:14.679
Um, that's sympathetic magic. It's
you. You imitate what you want

500
00:42:14.719 --> 00:42:16.840
to happen and so that in the
future it happens. So if you want

501
00:42:16.840 --> 00:42:21.679
your kids to eat and be healthy
and be well, you feed them,

502
00:42:22.119 --> 00:42:27.519
right, That's that's is that magic. It's sympathetic magic, is what what

503
00:42:27.639 --> 00:42:31.760
the term is? My car is
magic. I wanted to go far,

504
00:42:31.920 --> 00:42:37.719
so I put gasoline in it.
That encourages gods to make more gas nine

505
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:44.440
available to put in my car.
You're a true Samarian. That's not that's

506
00:42:44.840 --> 00:42:49.840
the worst magic on earth. How
about this one? Hot cross buns?

507
00:42:50.519 --> 00:42:52.920
Okay, I forgot all about that
until you brought it up. Did you

508
00:42:53.000 --> 00:42:59.920
ever have them? No? I
didn't. I knew the like very easy

509
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:02.960
song that you learn when you're first
learning an instrument. Yeah, the recorder,

510
00:43:04.039 --> 00:43:07.639
I'm I'm I'm a badass at it, but I've never put one in

511
00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:14.519
my mouth for sure. Yeah,
boy, I hope somebody cuts up this

512
00:43:14.639 --> 00:43:19.000
podcast and takes everything out of context. They can keep it in context,

513
00:43:19.039 --> 00:43:22.960
and we're just as damned. All
right. Apparently traditional Easter cakes in the

514
00:43:23.039 --> 00:43:29.159
Middle Ages and the cross that's an
easy wind for Jesus right there, but

515
00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:35.599
comes from Voton's Cross and means the
cosmic union of male and female. Voton,

516
00:43:36.039 --> 00:43:38.559
by the way, we've heard of
Voton before. Same same dude as

517
00:43:39.239 --> 00:43:47.599
Odin Mhoton, Odin Wednesday, Odin's
day. No, uh say Oden's Day

518
00:43:47.639 --> 00:43:55.800
really fast, Oden's day, real
fast, real fast. It's like you're

519
00:43:55.840 --> 00:44:01.320
saying Wednesday really drunk day. Wednesday
it may be even older than that,

520
00:44:01.719 --> 00:44:08.480
with offerings of hot bread to uh
the god? Tamus? Was the cross

521
00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:14.079
come into it just because it's Easter
that they're saying that's the cosmic union of

522
00:44:14.159 --> 00:44:20.480
male female. It's it's the lines
intersecting. It's the four points of of

523
00:44:20.760 --> 00:44:24.960
blah blah blah blah blah gun cross
side. Yeah, they have a reason

524
00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:29.519
for all of it. Okay,
I'm gonna put that in the pile I've

525
00:44:29.559 --> 00:44:36.079
labeled donkey moving on. Okay,
I ain't buying it, Tamus, that's

526
00:44:36.119 --> 00:44:39.960
the well, I mean, we
know it's not a tea, because oh

527
00:44:40.079 --> 00:44:44.519
my god, it looks like did
you ever have a screen door? You

528
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:46.639
got a screen door right now?
If you just take a cross section of

529
00:44:46.719 --> 00:44:52.960
that and put it on a piece
of paper, that's what we were discussing.

530
00:44:52.039 --> 00:44:55.480
Qunea form. We had to look
it up online and it is the

531
00:44:55.679 --> 00:45:02.679
most ridiculous and dense thing. And
I even found like some uh easier forms

532
00:45:02.719 --> 00:45:07.280
of kenaa form. And I found
one so easy that E, O,

533
00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:13.760
V, L, Z, and
V are all the exact same thing.

534
00:45:14.079 --> 00:45:16.840
Wow, how lame is that?
If your name is Eve, it's just

535
00:45:17.000 --> 00:45:22.440
three of the same thing. It'd
also be ooh yeah. If your name

536
00:45:22.559 --> 00:45:27.920
is Lex Nope, no thanks,
it could also be ooh. And if

537
00:45:27.960 --> 00:45:30.960
you drive a Volvo, this is
a whole bunch of the same thing.

538
00:45:31.079 --> 00:45:34.480
You could drive out of La la
la la la. Yeah, we're not

539
00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:37.800
impressed. So that's ah, that's
that's the traditions I've got for you.

540
00:45:38.559 --> 00:45:43.679
One one more little interesting thing that
I found actually just popped up in the

541
00:45:44.920 --> 00:45:51.960
most reliable of news sources MS in
news Listen. I thought we've already discussed

542
00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:55.239
who's reliable here, and it's Yahoo
answers. Every time there is an article

543
00:45:55.320 --> 00:46:00.719
that that Apparently there's a twelve hundred
year old Egyptian text that Hills of ponscious

544
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:07.239
Pilot having dinner with Jesus the night
before his crucifixion and offering to sacrifice his

545
00:46:07.480 --> 00:46:13.639
son in Jesus's place. Also,
Jesus was a shapeshifter according to this article.

546
00:46:14.159 --> 00:46:17.920
The article itself is it's not necessarily
true. It's just that some people

547
00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:22.480
believed it at the time. Whoever
wrote it believed it, and they were

548
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:25.960
you know, people in Egypt that
that believed it. And it was owned

549
00:46:27.039 --> 00:46:31.480
by the incredible son of a bitch, John Pierpoint Morgan. Oh do you

550
00:46:31.559 --> 00:46:35.400
know his private collection when it was
donated, that's what they found. Do

551
00:46:35.480 --> 00:46:39.679
you know who else is the shape
shifters Reptilians? So we broke the story

552
00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:46.480
JC Reptilian. Sorry guys, yep, living in a hollow earth, pilot

553
00:46:46.840 --> 00:46:51.000
driving around on a hovercraft. What
else you gotta get? Anything else?

554
00:46:51.400 --> 00:46:52.719
Well, you know what? And
I can't help it, Okay, So

555
00:46:53.039 --> 00:46:58.320
I'm looking at godlike productions for him. The Eastern Conspiracy. What the Church

556
00:46:58.480 --> 00:47:01.880
is not telling you for the most
part, that Easter is actually a pagan

557
00:47:01.920 --> 00:47:06.559
religion and that you're being duped into
worshiping Satan. And so this guy,

558
00:47:06.960 --> 00:47:07.599
you know, he's like, hey, I want you to know that.

559
00:47:07.719 --> 00:47:10.880
You know, if you're a true
Christian, you need to not worship that.

560
00:47:12.039 --> 00:47:14.639
You know, there's a problem here. So this guy, he's got

561
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:17.239
the inside track, okay on Christianity. He's he's he's a true believer.

562
00:47:17.800 --> 00:47:23.760
He sees past the distractions, the
lies, the illusions, the bad traps

563
00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:28.920
that would otherwise incocrate a man's soul
for all eternity. This man sees the

564
00:47:29.000 --> 00:47:30.639
true path. He's got one eye
on the Bible and the other I'm a

565
00:47:30.719 --> 00:47:36.280
holy spirit. And he will keep
marching forward until those burly gates, until

566
00:47:36.440 --> 00:47:40.039
all of eternity, and we'll worshipful
joyl with him and the living, loving

567
00:47:40.119 --> 00:47:44.880
the Lord or God. That's right. However, he does want everyone to

568
00:47:44.960 --> 00:47:49.239
know that March twenty, twenty twelve
will be Quetzacoto's return and we'll be back

569
00:47:49.280 --> 00:48:00.400
with our beloved Enkie whoop said Daisy, I love crazy Inky is actually a

570
00:48:00.519 --> 00:48:05.280
Sumerian god, right, Uh yeah, one of the Annonachi, I think

571
00:48:05.639 --> 00:48:12.119
yep. So that's a special kind
of crazy to uh wait to marry kids

572
00:48:12.159 --> 00:48:17.000
of quaddle and the Anonachi. One
of these not crazy one of these edging

573
00:48:17.079 --> 00:48:22.360
his bets. He's just covering.
Yeah, I mean this guy's you should

574
00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:25.679
see his posts on the Cabala network. I mean, this guy's really covering

575
00:48:25.719 --> 00:48:30.199
all the bases. Oh I like
this guy. Well good on him.

576
00:48:30.599 --> 00:48:37.039
That's Easter in a red dyed nutshell. Yeah, in the nutshell the nut

577
00:48:37.159 --> 00:48:40.280
is actually an egg. So uh
so there you go. Tell your friends

578
00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:44.719
I got a I got a basket
here for you, straight from the Eastern

579
00:48:44.760 --> 00:48:47.599
Benning. Oh god, please,
I want some Easter treats. The treats,

580
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:52.519
yeap, are in the form of
puns. Oh sweet Easter ponds are

581
00:48:52.599 --> 00:48:58.199
you The Easter punty that counts is
one that counts, is one that counts,

582
00:48:58.280 --> 00:49:00.880
is one you don't get it for
because we crossed the threshold into the

583
00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:05.559
pun zone when I said that,
all right, all right, suck it.

584
00:49:05.760 --> 00:49:07.239
So you went first. I just
went. I just went with the

585
00:49:07.320 --> 00:49:15.880
Easter punny brings delicious pun treats for
poisoned girls, Easter bunny bouncing egg sound.

586
00:49:21.559 --> 00:49:24.480
I truncated it for the interest in
the interest of time. Yeah,

587
00:49:24.559 --> 00:49:29.519
okay, great, all right,
I'll go then, since you've already snuck

588
00:49:29.599 --> 00:49:31.880
one in there, you hid that
one. You know. I got a

589
00:49:31.960 --> 00:49:38.920
children's show where a little blue bunny
goes around and they solve mysteries and you

590
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:44.199
could have fun and learn stuff as
a kid. It's called Tamus Clues.

591
00:49:45.360 --> 00:49:51.239
Oh that's really good. That is
that is really really solid. All right,

592
00:49:51.760 --> 00:49:53.079
let's see what what we forget about? I got this. Are you

593
00:49:53.159 --> 00:49:55.559
ready for this? Yeah? What
we forget about with Easter is that there's

594
00:49:55.559 --> 00:50:00.519
two sides of this. And the
International Pagan Council is fairly upset that they

595
00:50:00.800 --> 00:50:07.440
feel like their holiday has been stolen
by Christianity, and so they've they've pulled

596
00:50:07.480 --> 00:50:14.559
their money and they've decided to reclaim
Ishtar. And to do that, they've

597
00:50:14.639 --> 00:50:17.840
employed one of the most popular bands
on the Earthy Black Eyed Peas, who

598
00:50:17.920 --> 00:50:22.800
have rerecorded a song and we'll be
releasing it for free on iTunes. Let's

599
00:50:22.840 --> 00:50:31.960
get ishtarted in here, Let's get
ash started in here, Let's get us

600
00:50:32.000 --> 00:50:36.239
started in here. I just raised
the roof into the mic stand. Sorry

601
00:50:36.239 --> 00:50:39.519
about that. That's two songs out
of me tonight. You're lucky. You're

602
00:50:39.679 --> 00:50:45.280
welcome. Oh man, this one, this one's playing right on the heels

603
00:50:45.280 --> 00:50:47.480
of that. Oh good, I'm
glad. I got to Ishtar first.

604
00:50:49.159 --> 00:50:53.239
It's an Italian shop for race car
drivers. The guys that own it are

605
00:50:53.280 --> 00:51:00.559
Italian. It's called a start the
your engines. All right, the goddesses

606
00:51:00.599 --> 00:51:02.320
started. Oh I like that a
lot. Okay, I got I got

607
00:51:02.320 --> 00:51:06.960
another one. Oh goodness, Yeah, you just pumbled with me with puns

608
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:09.440
anymore. It's it's the key is
just to just to beat you down with

609
00:51:09.519 --> 00:51:14.840
the sheer weight of them. No, the easter punty, that doesn't count.

610
00:51:15.440 --> 00:51:16.960
I wanted it too when I was
scared that I didn't have any.

611
00:51:17.000 --> 00:51:20.400
But now I have. Now I
got some bullets from the clip. All

612
00:51:20.480 --> 00:51:23.320
Right, this this pun, this
pun is for our true listeners. Okay,

613
00:51:23.599 --> 00:51:28.519
because I'm bringing it back. It
turns out that I'm mildly clairvoyant.

614
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:34.000
Oh and um, I have been
channeling a lot lately. And it turns

615
00:51:34.039 --> 00:51:37.719
out that that explains all the Muslim
covered in butter. Yeah exactly, I've

616
00:51:37.760 --> 00:51:42.199
been channeling, uh. And I
have now been welcome as a member of

617
00:51:42.920 --> 00:51:49.000
Ishtar command. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah that's from way back. Yeah,

618
00:51:49.079 --> 00:51:51.159
you're getting a lot of miles out
of his target. Yeah, I

619
00:51:51.159 --> 00:51:54.559
really am, really am really laying
on the Ishtar uh to anyone who wants

620
00:51:54.599 --> 00:52:00.400
to be disappointed, go back and
listen to our channeling episode, and that

621
00:52:00.639 --> 00:52:04.679
pun will will make so much sense
and you'll be like, hmm, so

622
00:52:04.880 --> 00:52:08.719
glad I did all that work for
that. Yeah. And unfortunately it's just

623
00:52:09.199 --> 00:52:13.360
that's it. That's all we've got, because you know, we're the only

624
00:52:13.400 --> 00:52:15.920
people that like to do puns,
David, And that hurts me emotionally right

625
00:52:16.000 --> 00:52:20.119
here in my heart. And so
I guess, I guess thanks for nothing.

626
00:52:20.320 --> 00:52:22.760
I guess no one else cares.
So I guess that's the end of

627
00:52:22.800 --> 00:52:27.280
the podcast. What what? What? What else could you possibly have to

628
00:52:27.320 --> 00:52:29.840
say? Hell? Man, there's
some stuff hidden in the grass there?

629
00:52:30.440 --> 00:52:32.880
Wait what over there by that bush? There's something hidden over there. I

630
00:52:34.039 --> 00:52:37.599
see it. It's very brightly colored. It's standing out amongst all the green

631
00:52:37.679 --> 00:52:40.639
of the grass. You better not
be fooling with me, David, David

632
00:52:40.719 --> 00:52:46.239
Flora. No, it's an Eastern
miracle. It's a basket full of puns.

633
00:52:58.159 --> 00:53:00.880
Yeah, man, there's a whole
ask it of puns, delivered to

634
00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:07.360
you by our friend Bob the painter. Oh, you've resurrected my belief in

635
00:53:07.519 --> 00:53:15.559
humanity. Now roll the stone away
and check it. We have we have

636
00:53:15.639 --> 00:53:19.960
a puns plosion. Oh man,
it is. It's my friend Bob.

637
00:53:20.119 --> 00:53:24.199
It's a punami nice. Yeah,
I like that. Man. We're gonna

638
00:53:24.199 --> 00:53:29.519
go through some because Bob has been
listening voraciously to our episodes. Yeah,

639
00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:34.760
he devours them and redevours them.
He's got like a four chambered acoustic stomach

640
00:53:34.840 --> 00:53:40.719
like a cow, and he regurgitates
puns from them. So we're gonna go

641
00:53:40.840 --> 00:53:45.719
through some some fun ones that that
Bob has sent in. Are you ready

642
00:53:45.760 --> 00:53:49.199
for this? Yeah, I'm trying
to be. It's it's like it's like

643
00:53:49.239 --> 00:53:52.199
a guy who thought he was gonna
die and realizing that no, you're not

644
00:53:52.280 --> 00:53:54.719
gonna die, You're gonna be just
fine, then feeling dumb for thinking he

645
00:53:54.840 --> 00:54:00.320
was going to die in the first
place. Bob sends us a pun from

646
00:54:00.400 --> 00:54:05.239
our Mothman episode. Sweet. He's
got a new espresso shop in Point Pleasant,

647
00:54:05.320 --> 00:54:12.280
West Virginia. Nice. I love
products called Frothman. It's logo is

648
00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:15.159
our coffee. Maybe not be that
good, but it'll scare the shit out

649
00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:20.440
of you. You know, I
don't drink coffee, but one time I

650
00:54:20.519 --> 00:54:27.159
did drink two coffees that messed me
up. I always I get the coffee

651
00:54:27.199 --> 00:54:32.920
and stay up late so I get
red eyes. Oh you wanted to take

652
00:54:32.960 --> 00:54:36.559
the next one? Yeah yeah,
okay, let me let me serve this

653
00:54:36.760 --> 00:54:42.320
up to myself again. I hope
you guys like our Mothman episode because bobshers

654
00:54:42.360 --> 00:54:46.039
held in to have a dashery shop
in Point Pleasant, West Virginia might be

655
00:54:46.199 --> 00:54:51.880
right next door to the froth Man, run by an unlucky cross eyed man

656
00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:54.559
who wets his pants a lot.
Oh so, just a moment of silence

657
00:54:54.599 --> 00:55:00.079
for this poor bastard. His shop
is called the Mad with a weak bladder

658
00:55:00.159 --> 00:55:05.199
hanging under a ladder with his rabbit's
foot and tatters and his crossbow shattered,

659
00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:20.239
talking and crazy Mothman chatter incorporated.
We're a jazz pop yeah, Bob oh

660
00:55:20.519 --> 00:55:25.079
Man, Um, yeah gosh that
that actually that Married Mothman and the Superstitions

661
00:55:25.119 --> 00:55:30.679
episode. Yeah really he yeah he
stitched it together. Nice Bob. All

662
00:55:30.760 --> 00:55:36.679
right, I've got banshee laundry detergent. This would be for our ghost taxonomy

663
00:55:36.960 --> 00:55:40.599
or our Legends of Ireland episode true
story when you hear the whaling, you

664
00:55:40.679 --> 00:55:46.360
know the stains are dead. Would
be great if it actually did release something

665
00:55:46.400 --> 00:55:53.119
that majored You're rushing that she just
I tried to make a whale sound.

666
00:55:53.159 --> 00:55:58.239
Didn't work. Okay, No,
I'm a I mean man. This guy

667
00:55:58.360 --> 00:56:01.760
drove a dump truck into our living
room and unloaded. Yeah. This is

668
00:56:01.800 --> 00:56:07.920
like a clown car of puns.
It's a metaphor of puns, all right.

669
00:56:08.400 --> 00:56:13.400
This is a more of a historical
this is this is an origin story,

670
00:56:13.599 --> 00:56:16.519
okay. Also from Bob Also from
Bob Mears. It's the story of

671
00:56:16.559 --> 00:56:21.159
a boy, the son of a
clown couple. The couple decide to have

672
00:56:21.239 --> 00:56:23.440
a kazoo surgically attached to their son's
wrecked him to help him out in his

673
00:56:23.559 --> 00:56:29.039
upcoming career as a clown since he
is always a bit gassy. But the

674
00:56:29.159 --> 00:56:34.000
boy decides to follow his dream instead
of becomes a world famous archaeologist who from

675
00:56:34.039 --> 00:56:42.679
then on is known as Tu And
then once the university kicks him out for

676
00:56:42.760 --> 00:56:45.719
his kazoo farts, then he just
turns to the mean streets, where he

677
00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:50.199
learns how to wrap eight mile style. Let me music, come, oh

678
00:56:50.239 --> 00:56:58.000
man, something that he's prophet that's
gonna says spaghetti all right, all right.

679
00:56:58.159 --> 00:57:01.239
That dump truck has a little bit
more oh man apart where they like

680
00:57:01.320 --> 00:57:05.960
shake the truck to get the last
of that of the dirt out. They

681
00:57:06.039 --> 00:57:10.719
play the bass, real louds pump
the bass for Bob mus We've got flying

682
00:57:10.880 --> 00:57:17.880
Dutchman Baked Beans traveling the ocean of
your bowels forever. Oh, which I

683
00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:23.559
would sue that company because everyone knows
that Flying Dutchman Baked Beans do not remain

684
00:57:23.800 --> 00:57:28.199
forever. No, as a matter
of fact, they take the shortest line

685
00:57:28.239 --> 00:57:36.239
they can. They ghost right through. Yet ohoo poo poo jokes. Oh,

686
00:57:36.440 --> 00:57:38.360
we've made it, We've made it, we did it. How on

687
00:57:38.480 --> 00:57:44.920
earth do you have time to paint
a house and write all these amazing puns?

688
00:57:45.360 --> 00:57:50.039
I love it. I'm not complaining. I'm I'm in awe of because

689
00:57:50.119 --> 00:57:52.960
I can't do it. Yeah,
but I guess that's how you recognize an

690
00:57:53.000 --> 00:57:55.599
artist when they do something you know
you're not capable of, and you have

691
00:57:55.719 --> 00:57:59.400
to respect that, and they do
something else on top of it. Yeah,

692
00:58:00.400 --> 00:58:02.440
all right, now, this one
is a little close to home for

693
00:58:02.639 --> 00:58:07.880
our friend Bob hain't paint. No
matter what color you chose, all those

694
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:15.679
Hanks will love it. It's just
all pinks and lilacs hate paint. Hat

695
00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:19.039
pint, don't worry about it.
She's not gonna jump your shit over it

696
00:58:20.000 --> 00:58:25.519
if she don't like it. All
right, I got I gotta I got

697
00:58:25.559 --> 00:58:30.000
one from our spring Hill Jack episode. Okay, spring Hill Jack, Peanut

698
00:58:30.039 --> 00:58:34.119
Butter have a new and improved PBJ. I'll put a little spring in your

699
00:58:34.199 --> 00:58:37.559
day and maybe help you'll grab a
little booby. Oh I do love pabechs

700
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:44.360
and titties. Af there's two things
I could squeeze together. I should pee

701
00:58:44.440 --> 00:58:58.760
J and booby. Oharara okay,
uh Now, lady and gentlemen, the

702
00:58:58.800 --> 00:59:02.719
Bob mir Show rolls into it's thirteenth
hour. We're raising money for Spina bifida.

703
00:59:05.159 --> 00:59:07.880
Oh you appreciate these though? These
are great? Yeah? Okay,

704
00:59:07.920 --> 00:59:10.039
Flora and I had a little discussion
about this because Flora is afraid of this

705
00:59:10.159 --> 00:59:14.440
pun. Oh, man, but
I'm not. I guess I didn't listen

706
00:59:14.480 --> 00:59:17.400
to our Superstitions episode, right.
How stupid it is to believe in stuff

707
00:59:17.480 --> 00:59:24.239
like the dibick clock making every hour
the witching hour. And man, I

708
00:59:24.320 --> 00:59:29.199
have to do this because the pun
doesn't make sense otherwise. But the dibbickbox

709
00:59:29.840 --> 00:59:32.000
we may or may not ever cover
on this podcast. It is one of

710
00:59:32.039 --> 00:59:37.119
those subjects. This is why I
literally every time if you've ever heard me,

711
00:59:37.239 --> 00:59:39.519
mention it, and I occasionally will
make a Dibickbox joke and Flora just

712
00:59:39.599 --> 00:59:45.760
goes, I'm the only one that
talks about it, because if you mentioned

713
00:59:45.800 --> 00:59:49.440
this thing, the Dibickbox, bad
things happen. It is a curse,

714
00:59:49.559 --> 00:59:52.480
and so Flora will not discuss it. So he's just rolling his eyes.

715
00:59:52.559 --> 00:59:55.960
Right now, you've said it like
fifteen times. I'm pulling it onto me.

716
00:59:57.039 --> 01:00:00.440
I'm the lightning rod. Yeah,
you're the lightning rod. That right

717
01:00:00.480 --> 01:00:04.320
there that's recording all this. It's
a capacitor. I've got to deal with

718
01:00:04.440 --> 01:00:08.119
the capacitor later. Oh that's true. Maybe your fear will inmaculate it.

719
01:00:08.599 --> 01:00:13.719
But it is a box that is
not haunted, but rather demon possessed,

720
01:00:14.440 --> 01:00:17.840
and any mention of it will bring
the attention of the demon. I would

721
01:00:17.880 --> 01:00:22.320
love to do a Divot Box episode. If you would like to hear more

722
01:00:22.320 --> 01:00:24.519
about it, look it up online. It's great. There was even a

723
01:00:24.559 --> 01:00:28.840
Sam Raimi movie that's true that it
has it come out or I don't know

724
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:30.679
if it has or not. I
don't I don't know either, but maybe

725
01:00:30.960 --> 01:00:35.639
I forget what it was. It
was either called the position or something like

726
01:00:35.719 --> 01:00:37.039
that. It wasn't. They kind
of messed with the story, but the

727
01:00:37.159 --> 01:00:42.119
original story of the Dimmock Box is
terrifying all on its own. We came

728
01:00:42.159 --> 01:00:45.280
across it through the podcast Mysterious Universe, which is a lot of fun to

729
01:00:45.360 --> 01:00:46.760
listen to. Oh man, those
guys are great. They're Australian, so

730
01:00:46.880 --> 01:00:52.719
everything they say sounds interesting, exactly
interesting and sexy and like well they claim

731
01:00:52.800 --> 01:00:55.960
to have bad stuff happened to them
whenever they bring it up. Wait,

732
01:00:57.079 --> 01:01:07.000
I'm sorry you think those two dudes
sound sex not a sex, but yeah,

733
01:01:07.079 --> 01:01:12.639
really do look up Mysterious Universe.
Their dippit box episode is phenomenal.

734
01:01:12.719 --> 01:01:15.360
They got it. They did.
They've done a couple of them where they've

735
01:01:15.440 --> 01:01:17.519
discussed it and told this story.
And oh and I've seen it spelled a

736
01:01:17.559 --> 01:01:22.920
few ways. But I think it's
d I b b y k is a

737
01:01:22.000 --> 01:01:27.280
really popular or d ibb uk.
Look it up. It's interesting and it

738
01:01:27.400 --> 01:01:30.880
does make every hour the Witching hour. Um. So sorry, Flora,

739
01:01:30.360 --> 01:01:34.599
maybe we'll never Maybe I'll never convince
you to do an episode ourselves on it,

740
01:01:34.679 --> 01:01:37.760
but it is really worth looking into. If nothing else, it makes

741
01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:40.159
an awesome, scare the hell out
of your friend's ghost story for a long

742
01:01:40.239 --> 01:01:44.320
car ride or for camping trips.
Yep, I think the dump truck is

743
01:01:44.559 --> 01:01:49.440
empty now I think I think it's
Yeah. But thank you Bob for for

744
01:01:49.519 --> 01:01:55.719
sending those in light a match on
your way out. Bob oh Man,

745
01:01:55.840 --> 01:02:01.280
he punned it up. Crack a
window. Oh guess what what, I've

746
01:02:01.360 --> 01:02:08.079
got some feedback. We love feedback
so much from a long time listener.

747
01:02:08.480 --> 01:02:13.800
I haven't heard from you in awhile, Bahama mama, Oh whoa, whoa,

748
01:02:13.880 --> 01:02:17.880
whoa, Oh, Bahama mama.
These less for the days, for

749
01:02:19.039 --> 01:02:22.920
to nights. I've been feeling the
loss. I know. We decided we

750
01:02:22.039 --> 01:02:25.239
just cooling, maybe just back it
off a little bit for just a little

751
01:02:25.239 --> 01:02:29.880
while. My baby. It's like
seeing a pie cooling on the window sill.

752
01:02:30.679 --> 01:02:34.159
You know how sweet it's gonna be. Oh, but you know that

753
01:02:34.199 --> 01:02:36.920
pie is gonna burn you if you
don't wait. Oh, bahama mama,

754
01:02:37.000 --> 01:02:40.159
the waiting's over and I'm just right
here. I got a napkin stuffed into

755
01:02:40.239 --> 01:02:46.159
my shirt, you know, like
in a cartoon, and the wavey pie

756
01:02:46.239 --> 01:02:52.159
fragrance lines. They are drawing me
forward and I'm just hovering towards that sweet

757
01:02:52.239 --> 01:02:58.400
sweep. I know exactly the you're
thinking of. Oh, I'm just so

758
01:02:58.519 --> 01:03:01.599
excited. Thank you for writing,
Bahama Mama. Bahama Mama says I've decided,

759
01:03:01.639 --> 01:03:07.639
after hearing your podcast about the GIN
that I would not ask for anything.

760
01:03:07.119 --> 01:03:13.079
Goes back to the old saying leave
well enough alone. But if one

761
01:03:13.280 --> 01:03:17.880
genie should appear, I would think
I would do as any suggested and free

762
01:03:17.960 --> 01:03:23.119
it, hoping it would run away. Oh see not, Yeah, that

763
01:03:23.199 --> 01:03:27.000
I like that. That's a defensive
wish. That is, that is a

764
01:03:27.079 --> 01:03:31.039
defensive wish unless not all gin I
have your best interest in heart. Maybe

765
01:03:31.159 --> 01:03:35.679
the fact that it's shackled is the
only thing that's keeping you from making the

766
01:03:35.760 --> 01:03:39.840
soles of your feet into taste buds. I don't know if those if if

767
01:03:40.360 --> 01:03:45.960
the palists are oh that's the worst, Yeah, then you taste them tasting

768
01:03:46.039 --> 01:03:51.719
you Wait, would that be kind
of like mildly erotic? Though? No,

769
01:03:51.920 --> 01:03:54.960
it's like making out. No,
I guess making out isn't about tasting.

770
01:03:55.760 --> 01:04:00.360
I'm not into feat dude, No, me neither. Hey, Bahma

771
01:04:00.440 --> 01:04:03.480
Mama, I hope that I really
hope that we have like an obsessive fan

772
01:04:03.639 --> 01:04:11.280
who's like writing in their notebook,
you know, just like ambivalent Flora,

773
01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:23.360
no beat underline we do. His
name is Bob Mears. We're gonna make

774
01:04:23.440 --> 01:04:31.519
the most gorgeous flesh suit that's ever
been He's gonna look so good. Oh

775
01:04:31.599 --> 01:04:35.000
man, hey, guess who else
wrote in? Greg Bach? Oh?

776
01:04:35.159 --> 01:04:39.519
Well, Greg Bach. Um,
you know, I don't want us I

777
01:04:39.559 --> 01:04:43.559
don't want it to make us seem
coquettish. But with all the attention we've

778
01:04:43.559 --> 01:04:46.320
been getting from Bob MEAs, I
barely had time to spare a thought for

779
01:04:46.440 --> 01:04:51.599
you, mister Bach. He used
to be my one and only Now I'm

780
01:04:51.639 --> 01:04:58.079
just kidding. Bahama Mama was always
just you. You are gonna get yourself

781
01:04:58.360 --> 01:05:09.400
in a lot of trouble. I
have a crush on every listening I so,

782
01:05:09.800 --> 01:05:13.199
Greg says, when genies have a
tough day, they kick back with

783
01:05:13.280 --> 01:05:16.920
a nice gin and tonic. Oh
you know what, thank you? Yeah,

784
01:05:17.039 --> 01:05:19.039
somebody had to say it. We
were all wait, we didn't go

it, Greg, you did. Thank

01:09:49.119 --> 01:10:21.399
for real, sweetheart. Ain't that
redundant? Now? A lot of people

846
01:10:21.479 --> 01:10:25.199
think that, But you're wrong.
You're wrong. We'll tell you why you're

847
01:10:25.239 --> 01:10:28.600
wrong, and you're fucking dumb.
I had it up to here with your

848
01:10:28.960 --> 01:10:31.720
Tabitha. Why don't you maybe do
some research about the fucking candy so we

849
01:10:31.800 --> 01:10:39.199
can have us a damned discussion about
candy. Jesus Christ, Tabitha, I'm

850
01:10:39.279 --> 01:10:42.079
sorry, I'm just I'm just so
sick of your ship. You didn't read

851
01:10:42.119 --> 01:10:48.159
anything about peeps, and you were
supposed to have five fun facts about M

852
01:10:48.239 --> 01:10:51.159
and M's. I could make up
five fun facts about M and M's,

853
01:10:51.239 --> 01:10:55.319
but you show up to my house
and you didn't bring any tea or any

854
01:10:55.359 --> 01:11:00.199
soda, even though it's your turn, all right. Well, next up

855
01:11:00.840 --> 01:11:06.159
M and M's and how they can
really spruce up a party, candy Chap.

856
01:11:13.319 --> 01:11:16.600
What if every episode a candy chet
starts out so nice and they can

857
01:11:16.680 --> 01:11:20.640
subject up on sugar, they end
up just throwing at each other. I've

858
01:11:20.680 --> 01:11:27.000
had fifty pixie sticks today and you're
a horde, Tabitha. I hate you

859
01:11:27.199 --> 01:11:30.159
so much. Sabbath shows her dirty
hate face in that big sal I swear

860
01:11:30.239 --> 01:11:33.119
to God, Oh you think you're
so tough, Come at me, betch

861
01:11:34.039 --> 01:11:39.399
I've been begging for Get your ass
off that chair, Tabitha,
