WEBVTT

00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:13.960
Ninety ninety night I was drinking.
We ban't she She was a nice young

2
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:17.679
glass, she told me, and
I was handsome, and we downed another

3
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:21.399
glass. I asked her what her
name was, and she gave her head

4
00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:25.839
a shake. So I called her
out Patrick, cause she's driving out misnake

5
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:33.359
ninety ninety ninety night. She didn't
find that funny, and neither did her

6
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:37.280
man. He said I couldn't fight
him, and I said, I lapra

7
00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:41.520
can. He said I was a
gob shite and I'd go home on gown.

8
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:46.479
So I drank of hind again and
I kicked his barny stone so high

9
00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:52.520
ninety nine, nine ninety nine,
and she said to whaling. She pulled

10
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:57.359
him off the ground. She motioned
to the bartender to serve another round.

11
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.520
She sat him on a barstool.
But it was my cheeks she kissed.

12
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:03.640
He said I was fair in love
and ward, and then we all got

38
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.599
about fairies. We are know how
about that? Did you like that?

39
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:50.840
Did you like how? We weren't
like? Oh? This episode they involved

40
00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:53.039
some very interesting concepts and ideas.
Um. I don't want to go to

41
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:57.159
foint a point on it, but
it were really gonna know that fairies,

42
00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.800
fairies. We're gonna talk about fairies, fay folk. You know what I

43
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.759
brought this to Dave. Dave said, I don't know. Haven't we talked

44
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:08.199
about this before? The answers no, The second answering that shut up.

45
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:13.319
The second answer is we're not going
to have enough time to talk about everything

46
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:17.079
fade in this episode. And if
you're new, if you're just stepping in

47
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.279
for season three, we're not always
this drunk. It's our Saint Patrick's Day

48
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:26.319
annual episode where we get trashed two
times, two times, a lady here.

49
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:30.560
We're starting the season this season three, welcome and we're doing it with

50
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:40.079
our Saint Patty's Day episode, our
hia to Irish and our drinking more than

51
00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:43.480
we're go with this. How about
you? If you let me go,

52
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.199
I'll probably not stop. But yes, but we are, we are,

53
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:54.560
we are sufficiently. We have done
it, we have achieved. Think of

54
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:59.600
us picking up from where we left
off with last Irish episode. Oh man,

55
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.199
um, well, here's the deal, all right, So we're talking

56
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:06.720
about fairies this episode. Right,
we're gonna talk about what fairies are,

57
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:14.759
some of the folklore and we're gonna
talk about some explanations of maybe where fairies

58
00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:20.240
came from, not really but maybe
Yeah. Origins of fairies and they range

59
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:26.959
from the fantastic to the exquisitely morbid. Let's let's get this started. Oh

60
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.120
let's let's let's kick the tires and
light the fires. You know what,

61
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:35.519
I guess. Here's our PSA about
about fairies. Um, don't do it

62
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:40.879
yet, but I need your finger
on the PSA sound button. It's there.

63
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:46.480
Listen fairies. The subject of fairies
is a very big one fer Fay

64
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:49.720
folk. We can listen. If
I get a bunch of emails from pixies

65
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:53.680
and grumpkins, I'm gonna be pissed. I'm just trying to correct you so

66
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:58.120
we don't get in trouble. We're
trying to distill in in close to one

67
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:03.439
hour, one drunken hour into one
seven million lead bottle, what what fairies

68
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:08.600
are? To give you a good
idea? Uh, and we're being very

69
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:15.319
superficial about it. I well,
I'm hoping we can have an expert on

70
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:23.920
maybe later in the season to help
us. Oh, we just Craigslist of

71
00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:29.959
Fay expert expert. I like this
because at this point, if you're listening,

72
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:33.720
you're a real fan and we appreciate
you because all the Trumps had long

73
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:38.439
since said these fickers are drunk.
Good night yeah, or good morning,

74
00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:44.639
goodbye? Good God, that's better. All this, all this is true

75
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:50.519
and everything, but like everything is
like real, but quink quink, Right,

76
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:56.560
what we're going to cover in in
this episode is is really just scratching

77
00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:00.399
the surface of what's out there for
fairies. Stop happened to me? God?

78
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:03.800
Are we gonna get through this.
We're not gonna get through half of

79
00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:12.079
it with listen. All right,
all right, this is things. This

80
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:16.000
is the Saint Patrick's podcast. Don't
get pissed about it. Love us or

81
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:19.480
leave us, but if you leave
us, come back. Let's start out

82
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:23.800
with what fairies are. Yeah about
that? All right? Fairies are found

83
00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:30.279
in some form or other in all
cultures throughout the womb. We will be

84
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:34.600
focusing on the Irish culture. Yeah, the the UK, the northern e

85
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:46.560
western Europe. Sure, British portions
of Europe, your Olpe with sounded my

86
00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:51.439
barbaric arrolp um. All right,
Let's give you a general description of fairies.

87
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:58.759
Uh. Fairies are supernatural beings with
supernatural powers. Uh. Sometimes they're

88
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:03.680
described as a race of beings between
humans and spirits, which leaves a ton

89
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:07.360
of discussion points which we will get
to. That is a that is a

90
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.639
very the realm between humans and spirits. There's a lot of gray area that,

91
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:16.360
Yeah, lots of gray. The
name fairy is an Anglicized version of

92
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:22.240
the Old French fairy, which comes
from faye, derived from the Latin fata.

93
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:28.120
This probably comes from the idea that
fairies are the ones who bestow individual

94
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:33.759
destiny or specific gifts on people.
In English, the term was used since

95
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:43.840
the thirteenth century, but popularized in
the sixteenth century with connotations of enchantment and

96
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:52.039
whimsicality. Let's no law be left
without wheemsy. Well. You get writers,

97
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:58.879
authors such as Edmund Spencer and Shakespeare, popularizing the term of fairy around

98
00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:03.399
this time. Usually in English.
You so popularize as though it wasn't all

99
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:07.919
I mean like, but I mean
it was still well established and not I

100
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:11.840
mean like. Shakespeare especially, uh
used it as kind of a form of

101
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.000
das x makina, you know,
it was. It was sort of a

102
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:20.320
means by which to tell a story. But these were these are for a

103
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:24.399
very long time. They lived in
that that gray area between uh, belief

104
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:28.879
and non belief. Like I'm not
one hundred percent sure, but I'm gonna

105
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:33.559
leave some cream out at night,
all right. That's a little call back

106
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.480
to our legends of Ireland. Um, lots of lots of fai folk really

107
00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:43.360
into cream krogo. Oh what anyway? Yeah? In in English, folks

108
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:48.639
like fairy when referring to the she
of Irish mythology. Uh, this is

109
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:58.399
used interchangeably, which is not necessarily
correct. She in Irish mythology is closer

110
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:05.000
to meaning corpse or spirit of the
dead. And this will come into play

111
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:11.480
later. We'll bring that back.
And as for a description of fairies in

112
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:18.600
literature, they're described as small,
tiny humanoids, slender and beautiful, with

113
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:26.679
insect wings or butterfly wings, and
they're happy and gay. The real asterisk

114
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:35.720
fairy from folklore varies in size from
inches big to maybe six feet, with

115
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.759
a common height of of two to
four feet I mean, and if you

116
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:43.639
want to extend the definition up to
Ogre's twelve feet, oh goodness, yeah,

117
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:50.840
I mean yeah, and that's point
six to one point two meters for

118
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:54.320
our friends. Because we've become so
international, sorry everybody, we've got to

119
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.559
deal with the burden of electric system
we already set up that we should do

120
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:01.639
this. In a way, I
feel we've been uh lax in our duties.

121
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:07.440
Fair enough. No wings, there
are no wings attached. They flew

122
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:13.159
by magic flying. They don't they
don't need to condescend to our understanding of

123
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:20.559
aerodynamics. Uh. And they they
wore a nice albeit old fashioned clothes in

124
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.279
greens and reds like the greens and
reds, maybe some browns, maybe some

125
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:30.080
rays uh, they went about the
brownies? Did they wear brown Oh?

126
00:11:30.279 --> 00:11:37.039
Yes, what about the blue caps? Dude, you jumped so ahead?

127
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.960
Shut up? Jumped so ahead,
bro jumped ahead. I'm a dessert first,

128
00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:46.720
cod you're like the sweet the most
slavory. Listen. They were shape

129
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:52.679
shifters, which means they could be
from from inches tall to six feet tall

130
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:54.840
if they wanted to or you know. Yeah, shape shifting is a big

131
00:11:54.879 --> 00:12:00.480
thing in a lot of the folk
tales or the stories, and in the

132
00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:09.200
UK, fairies are commonly divided into
two types, trooping fairies and solitary fairies.

133
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:16.639
This was divided by W. B. Yates. This was I think,

134
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:22.200
I'm glad of that's science finally decided
to drop them into categories based on

135
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:28.360
their mobility. A man of literary
science. Maybe here's here's the deal with

136
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:33.120
trooping fairies. These are fairies who
live with many others, many times in

137
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:39.360
a feudal system, or maybe in
a kingdom ruled by a king or a

138
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.320
queen. A lot of times you'll
have a queen of the fairies. This

139
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:46.279
would be your Darby Gail little people
with the king or the lecons right,

140
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:52.960
very sure. And then your solitary
fairies they don't care for crowds. They

141
00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:58.679
live alone. These are your lepricons, your claricons. Oh I got the

142
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:03.879
claricons. Yeah, these are the
ones who like to go it alone and

143
00:13:03.720 --> 00:13:09.799
prefer not traps around with a lot
of their same ilk. So let's talk

144
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:13.799
about the folklore a little bit about
them. The folklore, I mean,

145
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:18.120
that's that's the bread and butter of
fairies in what we're talking about. Yeah,

146
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:22.399
I mean, like if you were
to dissect a fairy, it's ninety

147
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:28.000
eight percent folklore. We owe a
large part of existing folklore to writers like

148
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:35.759
WB Yates, Lady Augusta Gregory,
and those who collected the oral stories into

149
00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:43.519
works. And thanks to the Irish
literary literary revival better not edit that at

150
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:48.679
you, son of a bitch,
Irish literary revival of the turn of the

151
00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:52.320
century, twentieth century, turn of
the twentieth century, much of the folklore

152
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:58.399
that we have has been colored by
Christianity. Oh yeah, and this is

153
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.960
this is a theme that we've touched
on a few times. It's it's it's

154
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:05.720
this this this common theme of a
of a successful belief system, uh,

155
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:11.480
sort of incorporating but at the same
it's freenomizing. I am going to coin

156
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:16.840
the term freenomizing, which is very
different from friend of me. It's where

157
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:24.759
you like Christianity in a number of
cultures, it incorporates aspects of an existing

158
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:30.960
established belief system in an area and
then very quietly denigrates it. We saw

159
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:35.399
that with the Halloween the History of
Halloween episode exactly. And and you know,

160
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:37.200
I um, and I think I
think I've mentioned this before. I

161
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:41.679
lived in Ecuador for a while,
and you see in in the capital of

162
00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:48.360
Keito, like the old the Catholic
Church in the capital is extraordinarily old,

163
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.879
and you still see the glyphs carved
into it of the Sun God, of

164
00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:58.879
of these these other the existing religions. That incorporation for the purpose of extermination

165
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:05.000
so crazy. Yeah, and I'm
really pleased with getting to put a lot

166
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:07.919
of Asians into a sentence. Sure, sure, wins, we can.

167
00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:15.559
We can all rhyme. But here's
a little excerpt from how Christianity overtook maybe

168
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:22.840
some western highlands of Scotland lore.
Here's something from there. At the creation

169
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:26.480
of the world, God made many
beings before mankind, some of them like

170
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:33.360
the angels who followed Lucifer who followed
Lucifer wanted to make their own abode and

171
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:37.200
burst out of Heaven, leaving the
gates ajar. The rush of their going

172
00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:41.840
caused many other beings to be sucked
out of heaven. God became aware of

173
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:46.799
what was happening and pronounced let those
who are out stay out, and those

174
00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:52.519
who are in stay in, and
sealed the gates once more. All the

175
00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.679
rebellious angels made their homes in hell, but the beings who had been involuntarily

176
00:15:56.799 --> 00:16:03.559
locked out had to remain on earth
and become the fairies. And I'll tell

177
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:07.919
you what of this subject, my
favorite portion is like the origin of the

178
00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:11.879
fairies. And it's an interesting thing
because people have come up with a number

179
00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:15.559
of theories, and I like that. I like the not bad enough,

180
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:21.159
not bad enough for hell, not
damned, but locked, you know,

181
00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:25.519
they were they were not they were
in the house, got locked, you

182
00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:30.279
know, And so they become faithfolk. There they are locked to the mortal

183
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:33.799
realm, and so they just have
to make the best, you know,

184
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:37.200
to make best with what they can. Right. While most folks might not

185
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:42.000
say that they believe in fairies per
se, a lot of traditions are still

186
00:16:42.080 --> 00:16:48.559
followed and superstitions are observed relating to
belief in fairies. Yeah, and that's

187
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:53.639
and that's there's a there's an interesting
crossover between a superstition and faith folk at

188
00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:57.879
this point, where you could ask
a person like, no, I don't

189
00:16:57.960 --> 00:17:03.159
believe in hinky punks or grimin doles
or I just made I mean I think

190
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.960
one of those was from Harry Potter. But but at the same time,

191
00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:11.960
there are people who will observe superstitions
based on pleasing these entities. Yeah.

192
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:18.160
Yeah, one one in particular is
that folks won't call them fairies. They

193
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:22.759
won't say fairies outright. Uh.
There's there's actually a host of terms that

194
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:26.880
are used. Oh man, I've
got a few here in the gay like,

195
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:32.440
uh, Nadina maha, which is
the good people. Uh in well,

196
00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:37.720
she got the twileth tag, Nadina
uushla which is the noble people.

197
00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:44.559
The Tuatha da dana. Oh yeah, the old Toya didan And that's that's

198
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:48.160
we talked about that. Uh in
our Irish Legends episode. These might mean

199
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:52.960
descendants of that. We'll get to
that a little later. People of the

200
00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:56.720
mound, the wee folk, the
fair folk. Fairies don't like to be

201
00:17:57.279 --> 00:18:02.720
discussed or seen. Yeah, that's
and that's the the interesting thing in it,

202
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:07.599
and it occasionally kind of shows up
in the folklore in the mythology of

203
00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:12.039
it. But there's this this consistency
to avoiding observation. They do not want

204
00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:17.519
to be seen. They would prefer
to be forgotten, ignored. They are

205
00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:22.799
not interested in drawing the interest of
the mortal realm for lack of a better

206
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:26.960
term. Uh, and knowing their
name might give one power over them.

207
00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:34.240
That's that's one thing. And while
not necessarily irish in nature, the tale

208
00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:40.680
of Rumpelstiltskin, yes, is an
example of this in general and to this

209
00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:45.880
day, folks are worn to be
respectful and to tread lightly if there are

210
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:53.599
fairies present or in general, because
for even unwittingly crossing a fairy is bad

211
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:57.720
news, the worst. It's it's
it's just bad. We're going to read

212
00:18:57.759 --> 00:19:03.000
you a story real quick, fry
till a graphic in nature, not really,

213
00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:10.599
but uh, one that someone unwittingly
crosses a fairy and the repercussions and

214
00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:15.799
do not f with fairies. You
are not equipped for it. I know

215
00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:18.880
you're right now, You're like,
dude, you should see my lats I've

216
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:25.039
been hitting the gym. My legit
wrong. This is this is a realm.

217
00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:29.240
No, beyond your lats, yeah, your las, control of your

218
00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:33.400
delts. It's better than Curl's day
quads. Yeah. No, there's no

219
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:37.240
trainer that's going to prepare you for
what a fairy can bring to your life.

220
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:42.039
X. That's misery, tries,
buys hip, sleds. Face.

221
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:48.799
I've been working on my face a
lot, trying to build my mandibulars.

222
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:56.839
And now of eating from the Book
of Irish Ferry in folk Tales with me

223
00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:04.200
David's deco. Today we've been drinking
Jamison and Millie Lite and reading from W.

224
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:08.640
B. Yates. I have been
drinking You have been drinking guinness son.

225
00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:12.359
Well, I'll tell you what.
I enjoy guinness, but it's really

226
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:15.519
hard for me to drink a lot
of it. And I thought that was

227
00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:18.640
the order of the day. Oh. I enjoy being a cadl and it's

228
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:21.799
fun being a girl. That's what
I hear. Man Girl, Girl,

229
00:20:21.920 --> 00:20:25.359
Girl, last, last, last, what if this? What if our

230
00:20:25.400 --> 00:20:29.039
episode just evolved into an Irish bar
fight? How great would that be for

231
00:20:29.160 --> 00:20:33.480
everyone? It's a way to start
season three? So what is this story

232
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:40.000
called it's called Patty Corkran's wife.
Great dear WB Yates. I wouldn't normally

233
00:20:40.039 --> 00:20:44.079
write a letter like this, but
something erotic cappain that they just had to

234
00:20:44.200 --> 00:20:49.119
tell someone house. Okay, that
was fake. Here's the real deal,

235
00:20:49.240 --> 00:20:56.519
holy Field. Patty Corkran's wife was
for several eels of Yeah, Patty Corkran's

236
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:00.880
wife was for several years afflicted with
the kind of complaint which nobody could properly

237
00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:07.359
understand. She was sick and she
was not sick. She was well and

238
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:11.559
she was not well. She was
as ladies wish to be who love their

239
00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:15.440
lords, and she was not as
such ladies wished to be. I'm already

240
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:22.160
going to just call this that Corkran's
wife was a cry baby, which is

241
00:21:22.200 --> 00:21:26.640
a damning indictment in my world.
Keep that in mind next time you complain.

242
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:33.240
In fact, nobody could tell what
the matter with her was. She

243
00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:37.200
had a gnawing at the heart,
which came heavily upon her husband, For

244
00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:41.559
with the help of God, a
keener appetite than the same gnawing amounted to

245
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:47.640
could not be met with a summers
what this is difficult to get through under

246
00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:49.720
the best of circumstances, and I
assure you, dear listener, we are

247
00:21:49.799 --> 00:21:55.200
not in the best of circumstances,
all right. She had a gnawing at

248
00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:57.839
the heart, which came heavily upon
her husband, for with the help of

249
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:03.000
God, a keener appetite than the
same gnawing amounted to could not be met

250
00:22:03.079 --> 00:22:07.519
with a summer's day. You did
it? What did that mean? Just

251
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:11.680
keep going, all right? The
poor woman was delicate beyond belief and had

252
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:15.920
no appetite at all. So she
hadn't barring a little relish for a mutton

253
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:21.000
chop or a stalk or a bit
of mate anyway, for sure, God

254
00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:26.599
help her, she hadn't eaten much. She hadn't the least inclination for the

255
00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:34.079
dree pretty or the drop of sour
butter mulk along wid it, especially as

256
00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:38.720
she was so poorly to be sick, and indeed, for a woman in

257
00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:44.240
her condition, for sick as she
was poor, Patty was always made to

258
00:22:44.319 --> 00:22:48.359
believe her in that condition. But
God's will be done. She didn't care.

259
00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:55.559
Dear sweet gentle erudite listener, I
hope this makes more sense than it

260
00:22:55.640 --> 00:23:02.440
does as I read it. Moving
on, Ratty on a grain assault was

261
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:07.960
a welcome to her glory, be
to his name as the best roast and

262
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:14.680
boiled that was ever dressed. And
why not there was one comfort. She

263
00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:19.440
wouldn't be long with him, long, troubled him, mathod little what she

264
00:23:19.599 --> 00:23:23.880
got, but she knew herself from
with the gnawn at her heart. She

265
00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:30.039
could never do good without the little
bit of mate now and then, And

266
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:34.559
sure if her own husband begridged it
to her, who else had she a

267
00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:41.480
better right to expect it from?
It'says like doing push ups. It's a

268
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.279
good thing. It's a good thing
for the lady listeners that I'm so good

269
00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:51.519
at pushups, ladies. Well,
as we have said, she lay a

270
00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:56.880
bedridden invalid for long enough, trying
doctors and quacks of all sorts, sexes

271
00:23:56.880 --> 00:24:00.839
and sizes and all without a farthing's
benefit, until at the long run,

272
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:04.880
poor Patty was nearly brought to the
last pass, and striving to keep her

273
00:24:04.960 --> 00:24:10.319
in the bit of mate. Oh
what is the bit of mate? What

274
00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:11.720
is that? Is that a thing
she needs? Is that? Like,

275
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:17.720
like, hold on, I'm going
back. Meat on our bones maybe like

276
00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:21.519
the last bit of meat on our
bones. Yeah, it's like it's like,

277
00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:23.640
yeah, it's like that last bit
of health. Yeah, okay,

278
00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:27.319
that's the best I can do.
Please write in tell me what this means,

279
00:24:27.680 --> 00:24:33.279
Peter, listen, help us.
Yeah, no doubt. When we're

280
00:24:33.319 --> 00:24:37.119
drunk, we've no direction, not
like we were really killing it before.

281
00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:42.920
Okay. The seventh Year was now
on the point of closing. When one

282
00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:48.880
harvest day, as she lay bemoaning
her hard condition on her bed beyond the

283
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:56.319
kitchen fire. A little weishly Weishley, will Weishley, A little one,

284
00:24:56.000 --> 00:25:00.079
you have the helm. I'm going
to a hollow deck. Three, be

285
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:04.680
with your mom. Make it so. A little oh man will a will

286
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:10.960
Wheaton, A little weshy woman.
Oh, we're not moving past this one.

287
00:25:12.519 --> 00:25:17.680
Keep going. You got to don't
stop. Lay, I gotta go

288
00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:19.880
back to the beginning of these run
on sentences, dude. Commas are a

289
00:25:21.039 --> 00:25:26.119
crutch for Yates. Here. The
seventh Year was now on the point of

290
00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:30.400
closing. Comma when Comma won Harvest
Day, Comma as she lay bemoaning her

291
00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:34.039
heart condition, Comma on her bed
beyond the kitchen fire. Comma, a

292
00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:40.119
little weshy woman, Comma dressed in
a neat red cloak. Comma comes in.

293
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:47.160
Comma, and Comma sitting down by
the hearth Comma says, I get

294
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:51.359
it, okay, I'm done with
that. Bats is a best to well,

295
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:55.799
Kitty Carchrane. You've had a long
layer of it. They're on the

296
00:25:55.920 --> 00:25:59.880
board of your back for seven years, and you're just as far from being

297
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:03.440
care it has ever my grown eye, says the other in throth. That's

298
00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:08.680
what I was this minute thinking of, and a sorrowful thought. It is

299
00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:14.559
to me it's your own fault,
then, said the little woman. And

300
00:26:14.759 --> 00:26:18.559
indeed, for that matter, it's
your fault that ever you were there at

301
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:23.759
all. Oh, how is that? Asked kitty. Oh, kitty shure,

302
00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:26.880
I wouldn't be here if I could
help it. Do you think it's

303
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:30.359
a comfort or our pleasure to me
to be sick and bedridden? No,

304
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:36.319
no, said the other, I
do not, But I'll tell you the

305
00:26:36.400 --> 00:26:38.960
truth. For the last seven years
you have been annoying us. Oh no,

306
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:42.559
I am one of the good people, and as I ever regard for

307
00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:45.519
you, I've come to let you
know the reason why you've been sick so

308
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:48.640
long as you are. Oh,
for all the time you've been ill,

309
00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:56.240
if you've been taking the throuble to
reminder your child are thrown out your dirty

310
00:26:56.359 --> 00:27:00.839
washer after your dusk can be before
sunrise. Oh, at the very time

311
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:03.440
we're passing your door, which we
passed twice a day. Oh no,

312
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:07.920
Now, if you avoid this,
if you throw it out at a different

313
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:11.160
place and at a different time,
the complaint you have will have you,

314
00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:15.680
so will the no one at your
heart, and you'll be as well as

315
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:21.119
you ever were. If you don't
follow this advice, why remain as your

316
00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:26.599
and all the art you know,
man can man, man can man,

317
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:30.880
and all the art of man can't
cure you. Then she bade her goodbye

318
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:36.359
and disappeared. That's nice, kitty, who is glad to be cured on

319
00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:40.200
such easy terms. Immediately complied with
the injunction of the faery. Yeah,

320
00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:45.119
and the consequence was that the next
day she found herself in good health as

321
00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:48.440
ever she enjoyed during her life.
Right, Oh my god, So they

322
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:55.920
tortured a woman for seven years because
she threw her out at a window at

323
00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:59.680
a certain time of day. Yeah, and all they all she needed to

324
00:27:59.759 --> 00:28:03.440
do was throw it out a different
window at a different time because they weren't

325
00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:07.759
passing. They were on their way
to factory to make shures. Hey,

326
00:28:08.599 --> 00:28:12.200
thanks, Yates, and by Yates, I mean David Flora for that.

327
00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:18.559
You know, Yates can compiled these
from oral traditions, so you can think,

328
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:22.240
well, hold on, I'm gonna
reach for a little jamison because I've

329
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:26.079
earned it. Okay. By the
way, um, dear listener, we're

330
00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:32.200
gonna kill an entire bottle of jamison
tonight today. Yeah, before we start

331
00:28:32.319 --> 00:28:37.359
him. Before we started, we
we down half of it. We'll get

332
00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:42.519
through the second half before the before
in the episode's over, if we can.

333
00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:48.680
Fairies in general, right, they're
capricious and mischievous, and depending on

334
00:28:48.839 --> 00:28:55.960
the type a fair type, the
type and the situation, they can be

335
00:28:56.119 --> 00:29:02.640
malicious or benevolent. Obviously in that
story, well, it wasn't necessarily the

336
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:06.720
woman's fault. She was ignorant of
what she was doing. Why didn't they

337
00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:10.839
tell her like seven years prior.
That's a good point, Like, yeah,

338
00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:14.279
they let her suffer for seven years. And that's the thing. Like

339
00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:17.480
the faith folk, their whole thing
is like to be unobtrusive. They want

340
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:19.240
to be ignored, and then when
they are ignored, they're like, oh,

341
00:29:19.319 --> 00:29:22.640
by the way, I've bedridden you
for seven years because of this thing

342
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:30.640
you were doing good on them for
coming in at least telling her though at

343
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:34.839
some point. Right. So,
some are capable of stealing babies. Have

344
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:38.079
you heard of this? Oh?
Yeah, they're stealing babies and replacing them

345
00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:44.759
with irish stinghous. What's called changelings? Yep, it's is either an old

346
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:52.039
wizened man, wizened man, or
a stick a stick. It's a stick

347
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:57.720
enchanted stick, but it's a stick. They replaced the baby with this,

348
00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:04.160
and people are old, people are
full. One way to tell that your

349
00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:11.160
baby is maybe a changeling or not
your actual baby bark No. One way

350
00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:17.599
is to boil egg shells. And
then as you're boiling them, the changeling

351
00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:22.440
will be so curious that they'll ask
you what you're doing. They'll sit up

352
00:30:22.480 --> 00:30:25.640
from the crib and they'll be like, what are you doing, mammy?

353
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:30.839
Wow, don't don't play like you
know what's going on. Just say,

354
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:36.319
oh, I'm boiling egg shells,
and then kill them. You shove a

355
00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:41.519
hot poker down their throat. They
got real fast. You shove a hot

356
00:30:41.559 --> 00:30:45.519
poker down the throat, they scream
and go away in your baby's back.

357
00:30:45.720 --> 00:30:49.319
So, but what about the poker
damage? The poker the poker damage is

358
00:30:49.359 --> 00:30:53.640
for is for the fairy, it's
for the changeling. But oh my god,

359
00:30:53.880 --> 00:30:57.359
your baby is fine. Your baby
comes back from the fairy realm.

360
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:04.039
Anyway. Yeah, that's that's a
story. Yates dark blame Yates, Yo,

361
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:08.599
I already have all right. Uh, here's the thing. A natural

362
00:31:08.680 --> 00:31:15.000
ring of toadstools or stones is called
a fairy ring. Yeah, heard of

363
00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:21.759
this where fairies have danced. Apparently
you don't. Um, A recent scientific

364
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:26.920
paper explain toadsteel rings. Oh yeah, yeah, what did you ready for

365
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:30.039
me to like put some science on
this. Yeah, it turns out that,

366
00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:36.440
um, the existence of a toadstool
ring is this interesting phenomenon we're in,

367
00:31:36.519 --> 00:31:41.559
Like a fungal colony develops in an
area. They absorb all the nitrogenous

368
00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:45.720
waste in the soil, all the
nitrogen in the soil, and then they

369
00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:48.880
moved to the outer the next part
of the soil. And as everybody knows,

370
00:31:48.119 --> 00:31:53.240
as everyone is so bored with mycology, uh, the fungal spores in

371
00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:57.920
the tens of thousands fly out,
and so they moves out in this this

372
00:31:59.359 --> 00:32:04.799
concentric circle like every season to get
to more nitrogen in the soil, and

373
00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:07.319
so they move out out, out
out from this central colony, and if

374
00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:12.720
left entirely undisturbed after a few seasons, they will form this ring. And

375
00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:17.400
it's it's more about resource acquisition than
anything. But that is the scientifically proven

376
00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:24.559
reason how toadstool rings develop. Huh, but we both know you and I

377
00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:30.400
that science is a construct of the
Obama administration and really it's fairies. Yeah,

378
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:36.279
the liberal administration wants you to believe. Yeah that thanks. Thanks Bill

379
00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:45.440
O'Riley for helping us out without thank
goodness O'Riley factor, no spin zone in

380
00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:49.960
that toad store. Couple of losers
in their mother's basement running one of those

381
00:32:50.240 --> 00:32:55.240
podcasts you hear about on liberal TV. Anyways, if you come upon a

382
00:32:55.359 --> 00:33:01.079
toadstool ring or an airy fairy ring, entering one is dangerous at best.

383
00:33:02.039 --> 00:33:09.279
There's a host of curses that are
possible anywhere from lost time to you gnawing

384
00:33:09.359 --> 00:33:15.160
at your heart. You could be
transported to the fairy realm. You could

385
00:33:15.200 --> 00:33:21.960
be forced to dance ad nauseum dance
until you you become exhausted and die.

386
00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:25.359
I mean, don't don't enter a
ring. Yeah, just don't do it.

387
00:33:25.519 --> 00:33:29.480
Like, here's the thing at first, you're like, oh, transported

388
00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:32.680
the fairy realm. You're not a
welcome guest. That's that's not the best

389
00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:37.759
thing. You're there to dance until
your feet are bloody stumps. There are

390
00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:44.079
many stories that tell of people stumbling
into the fairy realm or being abducted to

391
00:33:44.319 --> 00:33:49.119
there. And here's the deal with
the fairy realm. Time passes more slowly

392
00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:52.200
there, so you could, you
know, spend a night there and come

393
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:58.759
back in a whole year has passed
or more in the real world. And

394
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:02.160
you should take care to never eat
or drink if you find yourself in the

395
00:34:02.279 --> 00:34:07.480
air in the fairy realm. Don't
eat anything that's offered. Don't drink anything

396
00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:10.239
that's offered. That just makes it
worse. Yeah, everything. And there's

397
00:34:10.280 --> 00:34:15.320
like a real monkey pot situation wherein
they'll be like, oh, drink this,

398
00:34:15.760 --> 00:34:20.280
it's it's just berry juice, and
yeah, you're thirsty. It's so

399
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:24.480
good that nothing you ever taste will
ever be good again, and you will

400
00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:30.679
end up starving to death, like
or or your memories will erase right.

401
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:32.800
All you can remember is being here. Thanks, but no thanks. Yeah,

402
00:34:32.840 --> 00:34:37.440
I want to make like a bunch
of like Office of Public Works posters

403
00:34:37.559 --> 00:34:44.159
like like propaganda posters that say thanks, but no thanks. The fairies are

404
00:34:44.239 --> 00:34:51.119
not your friends. Hey, folk
risk everything to drink the nectar. Here's

405
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:58.239
something. A shi guayha or a
fairy wind is a miniature whirlwind that can

406
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:02.840
sweep one away to their way realm
or sweep your soul away. Your soul

407
00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:07.440
can be what's called swept away.
The thing you want to do for that

408
00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:13.599
just lay flat on the ground and
let it pass over you. That's that's

409
00:35:13.599 --> 00:35:17.480
a defense. Again, stop dropping
roll people because you don't want to get

410
00:35:17.719 --> 00:35:21.280
swept away. You don't want to
get to the fairy realm. You don't

411
00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:23.679
want your soul to get there.
I mean, here's the thing you do.

412
00:35:24.360 --> 00:35:28.000
Everyone wants to check out the fairy
realm, but you have to know

413
00:35:28.679 --> 00:35:31.159
that it is a marshmallow with a
fish hook in it. Oh goodness.

414
00:35:31.320 --> 00:35:36.719
Yeah, Like once you get there, it's your ass. Yeah, and

415
00:35:36.840 --> 00:35:38.719
if you come back, you're going
to be scarred. Yep, So just

416
00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:46.159
don't go. We've had this discussion
before about like blurry photos PSAs like a

417
00:35:46.320 --> 00:35:52.360
series of like T shirts that's like
time travel paradox. Stop it before it

418
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:58.519
stops you. Yeah, and it
don't tempt fate. Yeah, um,

419
00:35:59.119 --> 00:36:04.840
fate kicks your Yeah, do not
go to the fay wild. Yeah sounds

420
00:36:04.960 --> 00:36:08.960
nice, not nice, not not
fun for it's fun for them. Uh

421
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:15.679
yeah. Hawthorne trees are sacred to
fairies. That's that's their their tree,

422
00:36:15.480 --> 00:36:21.480
that's their thing. Dog. Uh, don't here. Here's something. Don't

423
00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:25.360
touch a comb that's laying on the
ground. Well, that's just good hygiene.

424
00:36:25.599 --> 00:36:29.440
It's good hygiene. But if you
just come across a comb on the

425
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:34.000
road, it could be a banshees
comb that's been dropped. If you touch

426
00:36:34.079 --> 00:36:37.280
it, you might get just iced
on the spot. Wait, so like

427
00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:42.119
a banshee is just looking in the
mirror shrieking her head off and being like,

428
00:36:42.519 --> 00:36:45.519
no, what if I parted it
on the left? Why does a

429
00:36:45.599 --> 00:36:50.599
banshee have a comb? Combs are
for dudes, right, No, no,

430
00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:53.199
no, you're right, you're right. Combs are for everybody. That's

431
00:36:53.239 --> 00:36:59.280
just okay. Yeah, well,
abandoned combs, layer of banshees combs on

432
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:02.880
the ground. Don't touch him,
all right, Yeah, could cause instant

433
00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:07.480
death. You never know if Yeah, bad news, bad news, bayers,

434
00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:12.480
bad news, banshees. Here's here's
a way to stay on the fairies

435
00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:19.960
good side. You can pour some
pottine out, pattine being homemade liquor as

436
00:37:20.000 --> 00:37:23.840
opposed to putine, which is Canadian
food liquor. Also delicious, all of

437
00:37:23.880 --> 00:37:30.000
it good potato based. I want
to take a moment here to interrupt our

438
00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:35.280
the flow of our podcast. Really
do you think this is interrupting? Well,

439
00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:38.760
I've already established yep. I'm surprised. This is a message from me,

440
00:37:39.360 --> 00:37:44.840
David's deco to Canada. Oh hey, I am your friend. If

441
00:37:44.960 --> 00:37:54.280
you are, say a lady Canadian
Nadian. I for no political reason.

442
00:37:54.400 --> 00:37:59.079
I don't. I don't get that
jazzed up about politics. I would love

443
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:00.920
to be a Canadian citizen. I
would love to live in Canada. I

444
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:06.400
think it's a beautiful country. I
would just love to be there. I've

445
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:08.840
met a number of Canadians. I've
been to a lot of Canadian cities,

446
00:38:08.880 --> 00:38:14.159
and I just really like it there. Let's get married. Yeah, you

447
00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:17.920
get US citizenship, do with it
what you will. Not that jazzed about

448
00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:23.880
it myself. I get Canadian citizenship. I get to live north of the

449
00:38:24.039 --> 00:38:28.840
border. You could tell me like, okay, go wherever you like.

450
00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:32.960
I've heard a lot of rough things
about some places in Canada. I'm not

451
00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:37.960
saying it's a wonderland and my eyes
are open here. I just want to

452
00:38:37.000 --> 00:38:40.000
put that out to our Canadian listeners, which we haven't heard much from.

453
00:38:40.199 --> 00:38:44.920
Come on, you guys, come
on Canada, get on board because we

454
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:49.719
like you. Yeah a lot.
Where was I? Here's another way that

455
00:38:49.840 --> 00:38:52.320
you can stay on their good side. You can leave the first milk taken

456
00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:58.280
from the cow cream after all,
you guys, after the cow gives birth,

457
00:38:58.440 --> 00:39:01.559
the first milk that they give leave
out for the fairies. So keep

458
00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:05.440
keep keep an eye on your cow
people. Yeah, stay on their good

459
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:08.599
side. You want to know what
what what they hate? Cold iron?

460
00:39:09.440 --> 00:39:14.559
We've said this before. I think
iron is a big no no for fairies.

461
00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:19.639
Iron. I have a we're gonna
come back to that, and I

462
00:39:19.840 --> 00:39:23.679
actually have a really good explanation for
that for the iron. Okay, let

463
00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:28.719
me read a poem real quick.
I think we're at the point where everybody's

464
00:39:28.840 --> 00:39:36.280
hankering for a so nothing more powerful
than a poem hankering all right, before

465
00:39:36.320 --> 00:39:39.559
we get to the uh the blurry
photos poetry corner with some more lore,

466
00:39:39.679 --> 00:39:44.840
which I'm sure it was far easier
to read than the bullstone you gave me.

467
00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:49.079
Let's uh, let's put a little
fuel in the tanks, little Irish,

468
00:39:49.800 --> 00:40:00.559
little Irish fuel slancha anywhere between six
and eight shots. Oh man,

469
00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:06.000
we've been we've been drinking for a
long time. We've we're like one or

470
00:40:06.039 --> 00:40:08.440
two rounds away from killing a bottle, which in my life I don't think

471
00:40:08.440 --> 00:40:14.800
I've ever done. Yeah, a
bottle of jamison. Sweat, sweat jamison

472
00:40:15.199 --> 00:40:17.960
can Why don't you read some Yates? Dog? Okay, this one's called

473
00:40:19.039 --> 00:40:23.960
the Fairies apropos enough, I'll allow
it. And it's by William Allingham,

474
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:30.559
from the book Irish Fairy and Folk
Tales by WB. Yates. That should

475
00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:39.119
sound awfully familiar. Up the airy
Mountain, down the rushy Glen, we

476
00:40:39.280 --> 00:40:44.960
don't go a hunting for fear of
little men. We folk, good folk,

477
00:40:45.159 --> 00:40:51.239
troopernal together, green jacket, red
cap and white Harol's feather. Down

478
00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:55.119
the rocky shore. Some make their
home. They live on crispy pancakes of

479
00:40:55.280 --> 00:41:00.440
yellow tide foam. Some in the
reads of the black Mountain Lake, with

480
00:41:00.679 --> 00:41:07.480
frogs for their watchdogs. All night
awake. Why on a hilltop the old

481
00:41:07.639 --> 00:41:13.400
king sets He's now so old and
gray he's now lost his weds with a

482
00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:19.360
bridge of white mist columbcille he crosses
on his stately journeys from Sleeve Lake to

483
00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:24.320
Rosses, or going up with music
on cold starry nights, just up with

484
00:41:24.480 --> 00:41:30.480
the queene of gay northern nights.
They stole little Bridget for seven years long.

485
00:41:31.119 --> 00:41:36.480
When she came down again, her
friends were all gone. They took

486
00:41:36.519 --> 00:41:42.320
her lightly back between the knight and
morrow. They thought she was fast asleep,

487
00:41:42.400 --> 00:41:45.840
but she was dead with sorrow.
They kept her ever since, deep

488
00:41:45.960 --> 00:41:52.159
within the lake on a bed of
flag leaves, watching till she wake by

489
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:58.800
the craggy hillside through the mosses bear. They've planted down trees for pleasure here

490
00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:02.519
and there is any man, so
Darren has dig them up in spite.

491
00:42:04.119 --> 00:42:07.639
He shall find their sharpest thorns in
his bed at night, up the airy

492
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:12.960
mountain, down the rushy glen.
We don't go on hunting for fear of

493
00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:17.800
little men. Be folk, good
folk, trooping all together, green jacket,

494
00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:30.360
red cap and white house feather.
Oh that's so book drop. Well,

495
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:37.079
congratulations for giving yourself the easy one. Oh is that easy? Yeah?

496
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:39.559
Okay, compared to the effort I
had to expand it's pretty easy.

497
00:42:40.239 --> 00:42:44.079
Yeah, I read a lot of
Yates. Dude, all right, I

498
00:42:44.440 --> 00:42:47.480
did the time. Sorry, I'm
like a neo fight to Yates. You

499
00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:53.559
are sorry. It was hard for
me to fight. Yato fight. And

500
00:42:53.760 --> 00:43:00.480
now for the restauranary photos. We're
fighting. Come here, young and we

501
00:43:00.679 --> 00:43:07.559
just punch each other. It's just
all punched out. Do you want to

502
00:43:07.559 --> 00:43:12.239
talk about some explanations of what fairies
could be? Oh? Yeah, maybe

503
00:43:12.239 --> 00:43:15.920
we're looking from origins of fairies are
kind of fascinating. Yeah, a lot

504
00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:22.360
of theories going around, a lot
of them. Thank you and your support.

505
00:43:22.599 --> 00:43:29.599
I'm here for you. Take it
to the bridge. M mmmmm.

506
00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:35.559
How about this old pagan deities that
lost their followers. Oh Jesus, they

507
00:43:35.679 --> 00:43:39.079
kind of had to take a step
back. Um and and and in the

508
00:43:39.559 --> 00:43:44.880
lore of it, which explains the
need for they want to be hidden,

509
00:43:45.280 --> 00:43:49.559
they want they want to be left
alone. They had their time on that's

510
00:43:49.599 --> 00:43:52.440
over. Now we'd like to live
in this gigantic old hill the fairy mountains.

511
00:43:52.559 --> 00:43:59.800
Yeah, the remnants of Celtic nature
spirits when the quote unquote pagans worshiped

512
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:05.440
the spirits or or practiced animism as
it's called. And then the spirits got

513
00:44:05.519 --> 00:44:12.719
transformed into diminutive spirits, less lesson
size and lesson power, moved down the

514
00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:16.800
bench, righte descendants maybe of the
Tuaya Daden and yeah, yeah, I've

515
00:44:16.880 --> 00:44:21.119
I've got that. Yeah, going
going back to them if you prefer a

516
00:44:21.199 --> 00:44:25.360
bit more blaeble do we? Uh, we already covered this a little bit

517
00:44:25.599 --> 00:44:32.119
um really um for lack of a
better phrase, demoted angels people Uh,

518
00:44:32.519 --> 00:44:37.280
angels who were outside the Kingdom of
Heaven when the gates were closed. Yeah,

519
00:44:37.639 --> 00:44:42.639
or angels who were in heaven not
good enough for Heaven, not bad

520
00:44:42.840 --> 00:44:46.880
enough for Hell. Yeah. And
there's a little discussion about uh folklore regarding

521
00:44:47.320 --> 00:44:52.199
um payments made to hell. Uh. You know, somebody has to blow

522
00:44:52.280 --> 00:44:57.679
the lid off this Paola scandal.
But that they weren't. They weren't full

523
00:44:57.760 --> 00:45:00.159
on hell bound, right, So
they got they got bound to the middle

524
00:45:00.280 --> 00:45:06.559
round, they got bound to the
earthly plane immortal um. And and again,

525
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:08.360
much like a guy who got laid
off from his job, he doesn't

526
00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:10.440
want to talk about it. They
want to hang out in the background.

527
00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:15.320
Yeah, some of them. Some
of the legends go that they either they

528
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:21.920
got sucked out of Heaven against their
will when when Lucifer laughed, I guess,

529
00:45:21.960 --> 00:45:27.440
in such a huff. And then
God closed the gates or they sided

530
00:45:27.519 --> 00:45:32.360
with Lucifer. But but weren't bad
enough. They they I guess, had

531
00:45:32.440 --> 00:45:36.760
second thoughts or whatever. They didn't
go all the way to hell with him.

532
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:42.039
But God barred the way back into
heaven. And so anybody that touched

533
00:45:42.079 --> 00:45:46.960
the land was a fairy. Anybody
that touched that landed in the sea turned

534
00:45:47.000 --> 00:45:51.880
into a mermaid. Who. Yeah, which we're gonna come around to that.

535
00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:54.320
Come around of that, We'll get
there. That's the Christian stiff.

536
00:45:54.880 --> 00:45:58.679
You want to you want to hear
something dark? Oh I alway, dot,

537
00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:01.199
how about this not only the spirits
of the dead, but specifically the

538
00:46:01.320 --> 00:46:07.719
spirits of dead children? Oh uh? And and and even to put a

539
00:46:07.800 --> 00:46:10.440
finer point on it, uh and
this I actually give points to this because

540
00:46:10.480 --> 00:46:15.920
this is something that people of of
a theological bent have argue at a time

541
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:21.880
or two, have discussed or wondered
about the spirits of unbaptized children. Yes,

542
00:46:22.119 --> 00:46:25.199
you know, what do you do
with a child who wasn't baptized With

543
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:30.440
the baby's fault, just a baby
dies too soon. They become fairies.

544
00:46:30.480 --> 00:46:36.079
They become the faith folk. That's
that's that's that's an explanation for that little

545
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:43.840
theological loophole. Yeah. Dante even
devotes a whole section of the Old Inferno

546
00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:49.159
to to this. Not to digress
too much from what we're talking about.

547
00:46:50.639 --> 00:46:55.559
Uh uh yeah, like unbaptized children
or as they called them, unchurched.

548
00:46:57.039 --> 00:47:04.400
Yeah, church its spirits of people
that weren't weren't church. Now, this

549
00:47:04.599 --> 00:47:10.760
is obviously anti Christian influence. Yeah, this is not pre Christian or or

550
00:47:12.000 --> 00:47:16.800
or pagan influence on this, anti
as an ante r not anti right right

551
00:47:17.039 --> 00:47:23.519
right, anti post Christian theology.
Yes, so yeah, in an interesting

552
00:47:24.320 --> 00:47:29.880
take on it. Another another interesting
take on it, like like, let's

553
00:47:30.079 --> 00:47:34.519
let's take the top hats and the
white rabbits out of the situation. Displaced

554
00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:37.679
people's tribes of people, Uh,
you've you've got, for example, in

555
00:47:37.760 --> 00:47:42.880
Africa, pygmies, Uh that were
very difficult to locate, very good at

556
00:47:43.000 --> 00:47:47.679
hiding. Small people, uh humans, you know, humanoid pieces people people

557
00:47:49.159 --> 00:47:54.000
who were um just smaller and more
adapted for their their environment. And um,

558
00:47:54.320 --> 00:47:58.480
rather than than fight people when they
were displaced, chose to hide,

559
00:47:58.480 --> 00:48:01.239
they would they would withdraw further.
Um. There's a lot of discussion about

560
00:48:01.239 --> 00:48:07.360
whether or not something like that happened
in northern Europe, that these people um

561
00:48:07.639 --> 00:48:10.480
that withdrew Uh. For example,
one of the things that was listened was

562
00:48:10.559 --> 00:48:16.039
selkies. Uh, the people who
are like half seal half human have a

563
00:48:16.159 --> 00:48:20.920
lot if you of are of this, this this set of mind to say

564
00:48:21.000 --> 00:48:25.320
Inuits, um, they wear seal
skins, they ride uh, hide bound

565
00:48:25.400 --> 00:48:29.960
canoes. If these people were to
show up, you know, you want

566
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:34.400
to spend some mythology right there there
There is at least for the purposes of

567
00:48:34.440 --> 00:48:37.599
a conversation enough there to say,
let's talk about it. Let's talk about

568
00:48:37.719 --> 00:48:45.119
the the the biological ramifications that maybe
we're discussing, um, the folklore of

569
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:47.960
people who really were there, of
people trying to make sense of another group

570
00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:52.480
who just showed up one day.
Sure, sure, um, so that's

571
00:48:52.639 --> 00:48:57.039
that's a very real thing. And
and and faith the faith folk aren't limited

572
00:48:57.280 --> 00:49:01.519
to the British Isles or Northern I
mean, you know, like the Scandinavia

573
00:49:01.639 --> 00:49:07.639
has a lot of great folklore of
of trolls and and and worlds. Yeah,

574
00:49:08.400 --> 00:49:12.039
um, but you have it all
over the world. You have uh

575
00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:17.599
in Greek mythology, the nymphs yeah, yeah, very very considered same along

576
00:49:17.639 --> 00:49:21.679
the same lines, Yeah, very
very similar to faith folk. Uh.

577
00:49:21.800 --> 00:49:28.119
South Africa has the Abbatwa, which
are um they they hold the the record

578
00:49:28.199 --> 00:49:34.519
for smallest of the the faith folk, but they are um you Zulu spirit

579
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:40.480
folk. The idea of of another
race of beyond man, not quite deity,

580
00:49:42.000 --> 00:49:46.039
of this middle ground of existence,
is not at all limited to to

581
00:49:46.239 --> 00:49:50.360
Northern Europe. I mean, we've
we've done a whole episode on Yoki.

582
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:52.199
We've done a whole I mean we
we we've covered a lot of these things,

583
00:49:52.239 --> 00:49:58.159
and it's and it's it's a very
pervasive idea. And obviously because it's

584
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:02.760
it's uh, it's as it's Saint
Patrick's time, and we're trashed because we

585
00:50:02.960 --> 00:50:12.039
are USA, USA Antolin. You
know, we're we're we're really kind of

586
00:50:12.079 --> 00:50:15.920
focusing that area. But what's important
to know is that this this idea,

587
00:50:15.159 --> 00:50:21.719
there's this concept of a of a
middle theological ground. I guess is I

588
00:50:21.800 --> 00:50:23.800
don't know is that that's probably not
a good way to put it, but

589
00:50:24.199 --> 00:50:31.239
um that this idea of more spiritual
than than mankind, less spiritual than gods

590
00:50:31.280 --> 00:50:36.280
and angels, Yeah, yeah,
less divine being out there and among US

591
00:50:36.400 --> 00:50:39.519
is not new, it's not unique, it's it's it's a very commonly held

592
00:50:39.559 --> 00:50:43.119
belief by a lot of people,
by a lot of societies, by a

593
00:50:43.159 --> 00:50:46.559
lot of cultures. And and some
of that is um the thought that they

594
00:50:46.599 --> 00:50:53.920
are human ancestors, spirit of human
ancestors coming in. You mentioned the elves,

595
00:50:54.039 --> 00:51:00.280
You mentioned the nymphs. I also
mentioned Metallica. Did you know silf

596
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:07.199
in Greece silf u s a a
pH and that. Yeah, I really

597
00:51:07.239 --> 00:51:13.400
got like a lot of phah silf
air spirits. Is what what silf relate

598
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:16.800
to you? You said South Africa. I've got a West Africa. I

599
00:51:17.159 --> 00:51:22.119
did say South Africa. Okay,
you're right, the West Africa. Aziza

600
00:51:22.679 --> 00:51:29.199
is akin to two fairies. I
don't know that sounds made up Perry Perry

601
00:51:29.400 --> 00:51:35.519
in Iran or Persia. That's uh, that's akin to fairies. These are

602
00:51:35.960 --> 00:51:40.480
other cultures, like like we said, these are their versions of fairies or

603
00:51:40.599 --> 00:51:47.840
or the type of beings that fairies
represent. Uh Nagumwa suck and nana push

604
00:51:49.119 --> 00:51:53.639
in the United States, the Native
American version. I say, yeah,

605
00:51:53.639 --> 00:51:57.679
like I've heard of them. I'm
just agreeing with you. Of course,

606
00:51:57.760 --> 00:52:02.000
we said the elves in Scandinavian lore, or dwarves and gnomes and cobolds of

607
00:52:02.239 --> 00:52:09.199
the Germanic lore u yo sai in
Japan. Yeah, as opposed to yokai

608
00:52:09.639 --> 00:52:15.960
yo si or you say so.
A lot of cultures have these uh type

609
00:52:15.960 --> 00:52:21.639
of beings, not not necessarily fairies, right, but they have their own

610
00:52:21.760 --> 00:52:25.920
names and and they're similar in spirit. Let's go through a quick list of

611
00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:34.360
fairy types. Things that fall under
fairy man. There's a lot of creatures

612
00:52:34.559 --> 00:52:39.119
that fall under fairy oh man,
fall under the category. And in a

613
00:52:39.239 --> 00:52:45.559
way it's it's so wrong. In
in a way it's so right. God

614
00:52:46.000 --> 00:52:49.599
when you say that, I have
no idea what you're about to do.

615
00:52:49.920 --> 00:52:54.840
Good, all right, Let's start
with sprites, oh man. Sprites,

616
00:52:55.239 --> 00:53:01.239
smaller fairies yep, still still under
the category, often associated with the elements

617
00:53:01.320 --> 00:53:07.079
though, and you'll often hear of
like water sprites. I mean, great

618
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:12.519
example of sprites. Uh, pixies, oh man. Here's the deal.

619
00:53:13.079 --> 00:53:21.719
Pixies originally piskis a huge history to
them. There's a lot and here and

620
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:27.519
in the other deal, they're they're
they're Cornish, right, They're Cornish creatures

621
00:53:27.719 --> 00:53:31.519
from Cornwall. Uh. They're small, smaller than than your normal fairy.

622
00:53:32.079 --> 00:53:36.880
It's synonymous with with fairy, but
it's not the same. In fact,

623
00:53:37.480 --> 00:53:45.199
they hate each other. The pixies
the piskis hate fairies. Fai. Couldn't

624
00:53:45.239 --> 00:53:47.199
they just understand that they're still similar
to each other. I don't know.

625
00:53:47.679 --> 00:53:52.840
Wow, sorry, yeah, I
don't know. For the listeners, Flora

626
00:53:52.000 --> 00:53:57.800
just killed a shot like it was
just nothing like like, oh, hold

627
00:53:57.840 --> 00:54:01.000
on, let me just wet my
whistle, glart. Well, I'm sorry,

628
00:54:01.159 --> 00:54:05.880
Well, I'm you know Irish rules. I've got to match that.

629
00:54:06.079 --> 00:54:09.800
And and ladies and gentlemen, allow
me to explain to you that I am

630
00:54:09.840 --> 00:54:15.280
now going to drink the last shot
of the bottle. We have killed a

631
00:54:15.320 --> 00:54:27.159
bottle of jamison the night one day. We'll say the same thing at the

632
00:54:27.320 --> 00:54:34.760
end of that and that's it.
But that's how you gently, gently lead

633
00:54:34.800 --> 00:54:39.679
a bottle of jamison into that eternal
night. Now we've just got a bunch

634
00:54:39.719 --> 00:54:44.239
of crap to chase it with.
Boy oh, I was gonna save that

635
00:54:44.360 --> 00:54:46.800
last shot for listener mail, but
man, I guess now's the time,

636
00:54:46.880 --> 00:54:52.119
people, children of the future,
we're blowing up the moon. The piskis

637
00:54:52.360 --> 00:54:59.480
are a lot like the fairies.
Now this will probably piss any pisky that's

638
00:54:59.559 --> 00:55:05.639
listening off. Yeah, piscis huge
fan for Pixies. I'm an American.

639
00:55:05.719 --> 00:55:08.400
We're gonna go with pixies. Yeah, pixies with an x uh the original

640
00:55:08.639 --> 00:55:15.280
Piskis with an s k. Pisky
sounds very urine to me, and sure,

641
00:55:15.480 --> 00:55:21.119
whatever, man, But the big
deal with them they love horses.

642
00:55:21.679 --> 00:55:29.000
I love riding horses, little little
tiny horses. Also, their big deal

643
00:55:29.199 --> 00:55:34.039
was they led travelers astray. Yeah, they're dicks. Yeah, it's called

644
00:55:34.320 --> 00:55:37.840
piskey lead, pisky lead. If
you're pisky lad, you are led astray

645
00:55:38.039 --> 00:55:43.800
from from your normal path, from
enchantment, through enchantments. And you know,

646
00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:49.159
you know one way to prevent yourself
from being pisky lead. Carry salt

647
00:55:49.239 --> 00:55:52.760
in your pocket. What, Yeah, carry put it. Put a pinch

648
00:55:52.800 --> 00:55:55.360
of salt in your pocket and and
you'll be all right. Okay, don't

649
00:55:55.360 --> 00:55:59.199
worry about it, not above it. Hey, let's talk about Tommy Knockers.

650
00:55:59.480 --> 00:56:04.960
Okay, the Stephen King work,
No Tommy Knockers. Originally, these

651
00:56:05.000 --> 00:56:08.880
are Cornish creatures again from Cornwall.
These are bigger Cornwall needs to relax,

652
00:56:09.360 --> 00:56:15.239
bigger, bigger than Piskis and the
Tommy Knockers live in mines or tunnels.

653
00:56:15.760 --> 00:56:22.679
In fact, they wear miner's clothes. The name comes from the knocking sound

654
00:56:22.079 --> 00:56:25.639
that happens before a cave in No, what do they mind though? What?

655
00:56:27.239 --> 00:56:31.159
Or or okay? Because because you
have blue caps that or that mine

656
00:56:31.280 --> 00:56:35.920
coal but not or you got Tommy
Knockers that mine or but coal, like

657
00:56:36.320 --> 00:56:39.320
there's great to be a specificity of
these. Oh yeah, yeah, did

658
00:56:39.360 --> 00:56:45.400
I say to be instead of degree
whatever? I have followed you, Jamison

659
00:56:45.559 --> 00:56:59.400
for your benefit, Darty Bost.
We never agree on how it's going to

660
00:56:59.599 --> 00:57:02.119
end. I'll tell you. I'll
tell you a secret. I'm always topical.

661
00:57:02.559 --> 00:57:07.760
I thought you were always LEPrecon No
because that went topical last time.

662
00:57:08.159 --> 00:57:14.920
Well, me and the goat ass
then yeah, Tommy Knockers came over from

663
00:57:15.159 --> 00:57:20.800
Ireland, took jobs west western Pennsylvania. They got out to California with the

664
00:57:21.159 --> 00:57:24.960
gold Rush. Yeah, the eighteen
forties stayed with their gremlin families and said,

665
00:57:25.039 --> 00:57:29.599
don't worry, your time is so
an haircraft will be here any minute

666
00:57:29.639 --> 00:57:34.960
now. Tommy Knockers. Yeah,
not the Stephen King thing. But uh,

667
00:57:35.480 --> 00:57:38.519
you know, I have you seen
Tommy Knockers Stephen Kings. I don't

668
00:57:38.519 --> 00:57:42.800
know anything beyond the name. Yeah, I don't either. That's weird.

669
00:57:43.159 --> 00:57:49.159
I don't think that Stephen King's version
is true to the Cornish the Cornish version,

670
00:57:49.559 --> 00:57:52.599
yeah, I don't think there's a
lot of Stephen King Cornwall sorry steps

671
00:57:52.639 --> 00:57:57.519
over but anyway, Yeah, he's
like, oh you hurt my feelings,

672
00:57:57.559 --> 00:58:01.639
I'll dab my tears with these trillion
dollar bells. How about the marrow?

673
00:58:02.159 --> 00:58:06.960
Have you heard of these marrow?
These are mr folk, same thing as

674
00:58:07.119 --> 00:58:12.440
as mermaids, not silkies. No, they're not seals. They're fish from

675
00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:17.559
the waist down, but they're mostly
benevolent. They they they're they're good folk.

676
00:58:19.280 --> 00:58:22.239
They're okay, um, of course, like any fairy. Don't cross

677
00:58:22.320 --> 00:58:25.480
them or they'll they're fun with your
ship. Yeah, they will UK with

678
00:58:25.599 --> 00:58:29.440
your ship. That's all right,
damn it. Why didn't it Because because

679
00:58:29.480 --> 00:58:32.880
of a bottle of jamison, That's
why you're right? Fuh really? Okay?

680
00:58:34.119 --> 00:58:37.920
So marrows red caps? Have you
heard of these guys? Yeah,

681
00:58:38.280 --> 00:58:43.800
cousin of the blue caps. Different
fashion sense. This is spirit found in

682
00:58:43.880 --> 00:58:49.039
northern England. And by northern England, I mean around the Scotland England border

683
00:58:49.360 --> 00:58:58.199
aka Scotland holly malicious. They kill
regularly to keep their caps red and wet

684
00:58:58.559 --> 00:59:02.519
with blood. Yeah, they do
not give a bunch of a holes man

685
00:59:04.000 --> 00:59:07.880
if it dries, they dies,
right, that's right, that's why.

686
00:59:08.320 --> 00:59:13.039
Uh they say, Just like you
keep a pitch of salt in your pocket

687
00:59:13.280 --> 00:59:17.960
to help from Tommy knockers. Yeah, that's what I said. You keep

688
00:59:19.000 --> 00:59:23.679
a hair dryer with you to combat
red caps. There. They cannot be

689
00:59:23.880 --> 00:59:28.559
out run. That's you know,
it's a real dick move. They'll let

690
00:59:28.639 --> 00:59:31.360
you think you can. They'll be
like, oh god, I'm so tired,

691
00:59:31.880 --> 00:59:39.400
slow down, human, and then
they like they look like stout man

692
00:59:39.679 --> 00:59:46.440
with crazy eyes, right, crazy
eyes like cab drivers and big teeth like

693
00:59:46.559 --> 00:59:52.440
cab drivers. Not the same as
the Irish fear dared, which is a

694
00:59:52.760 --> 01:00:00.920
mischievous spirit. Mischievous spirit wears red
red cloak, red hat. Not the

695
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:06.199
same thing. These guys are our
total ass hats, red cap ass hats.

696
01:00:06.760 --> 01:00:09.920
So all right, you guys,
here's the deal, fairies, huge

697
01:00:10.199 --> 01:00:15.639
subject giant. That's all you get. We we gave you a very very

698
01:00:15.800 --> 01:00:21.920
cursory once over. Right now you're
like, oh, but I'm hungry.

699
01:00:21.960 --> 01:00:25.159
If I'm my fairy talk please to
telling me more. Well, I'm sorry,

700
01:00:25.320 --> 01:00:29.199
uder you have to go to bed
without more food, that's all right,

701
01:00:29.280 --> 01:00:37.400
No pretzel for you. Pretzel culture
shift, Oh my god, I'm

702
01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:43.679
gonna I'm gonna include a lot of
links to some very cool information on on

703
01:00:43.840 --> 01:00:47.440
them. Uh, you can go
out and search for more on your own.

704
01:00:47.800 --> 01:00:52.159
And maybe, maybe, maybe in
the course of season three, we

705
01:00:52.280 --> 01:00:59.079
will get someone who knows what they're
talking about to talk to us about fairies.

706
01:00:59.239 --> 01:01:01.719
Is nothing we that we could find
that could be more informative than what

707
01:01:01.840 --> 01:01:07.119
we've done trashed. Okay, I
stand on the mountain of liquor and I

708
01:01:07.239 --> 01:01:13.159
looked down before me, and I'm
pleased by what I see. If you

709
01:01:13.239 --> 01:01:20.880
don't celebrate Saint Patrick's Day, then
you do. Oh man, oh god,

710
01:01:21.320 --> 01:01:23.880
in your name Ireland, we have
drunk a bottle of Jamison, yeah,

711
01:01:24.000 --> 01:01:28.480
and Minni Guinness. So there you
go. Yeah, that's uh,

712
01:01:28.800 --> 01:01:36.199
that's that's a whole lot of fairies
that we've crammed mystically into into a butterfly

713
01:01:36.320 --> 01:01:40.840
winged nutshell. Yeah, with pixie
dust and sparkles. And because it's the

714
01:01:40.920 --> 01:01:45.280
Internet, a picture of a kiddie, I might even I might even go

715
01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:47.840
so far as to say we will
try to get somebody who knows what they're

716
01:01:47.880 --> 01:01:55.000
talking about to make more to look, who's so tough? I swear by

717
01:01:55.079 --> 01:01:59.920
the eye for swear, I shout
in my lifetime, search out, well,

01:02:16.880 --> 01:02:22.320
I've been I've been lax on that
Lost Girl. What No, Okay,

722
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:27.119
the Canadian show Lost You should have
said that louder because I have no recollection

723
01:02:27.199 --> 01:02:32.440
of its Lost Girl. It has
a lot of Faye references in it.

724
01:02:34.280 --> 01:02:37.519
Oh okay, And when I mentioned
the family von Trapp who actually exist,

725

You're all like, what's that?
What's that? You're cast? Yeah?

01:02:42.719 --> 01:02:50.159
Okay, fine, super watched that
show on the UPN network, Lost Girl.

727
01:02:50.320 --> 01:02:54.280
It's an awesome show. Okay,
Uh not not everything is is Faye

728
01:02:54.360 --> 01:03:00.800
related, but they make a lot
of good Faye puns. Anyway, Well,

729
01:03:00.840 --> 01:03:05.280
we're big fans of that. That's
that's the nutshell. Uh And now

730
01:03:05.280 --> 01:03:08.320
it's time for pones. Yeah,
speaking of vay puns, I'm not even

733
01:03:15.199 --> 01:03:20.119
Okay, don't steal mine. I'll

734
01:03:20.119 --> 01:03:23.519

maybe a pack of new pun. Pick

735
01:03:23.639 --> 01:03:30.119

736
01:03:30.239 --> 01:03:35.239
Man. Oh my gosh, you
gotta pay so much tax on.

737
01:03:36.519 --> 01:03:43.880
It's like a bottled water tax.
But with this fall, the Weinstein Group,

738
01:03:44.079 --> 01:03:50.280
in association with Hidden Door Pictures,
presents She, a tale of a

739
01:03:50.400 --> 01:03:55.000
man whose search for love leads him
to the Fay Folk, as opposed to

740
01:03:55.119 --> 01:03:59.920
last year's OSCAR nominated She, where
I was a guy with a computer.

741
01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:08.360
She, which is totally different,
completely different from the Joaquin Phoenix from the

742
01:04:08.480 --> 01:04:15.079
phonetically similar movie This Is She asked, idh of oh Man Good distances himself

743
01:04:15.519 --> 01:04:21.079
from mankind and seeks love in the
fay Wild. She in theater soon?

744
01:04:24.280 --> 01:04:30.199
Not her? Not sure? Not
her? She? It's very hey,

745
01:04:31.039 --> 01:04:40.199
let's never drink again. I am
apologizing and I don't mean it. Sorry,

746
01:04:40.519 --> 01:04:45.760
I'm not sorry. Okay, I've
got this is something that you may

747
01:04:45.880 --> 01:04:49.199
have have come across in your travels. Man may have seen this and may

748
01:04:49.320 --> 01:04:56.679
heard of this. Sometimes sometimes you
get lost, you lose time. Um,

749
01:04:57.480 --> 01:05:00.320
maybe you get into dream like world. Fu. You've had some drinks.

750
01:05:00.400 --> 01:05:05.679
I'm there right now, right,
I think you've been whiskey lead oh,

751
01:05:06.599 --> 01:05:15.559
because of the piskey. Whiskey lead
oh. That's brilliant. I like

752
01:05:15.719 --> 01:05:18.159
that, all right, I got
one. There was a time when this

753
01:05:18.280 --> 01:05:24.599
country understood what fitness was, what
healthy eating was, but we've forgotten it.

754
01:05:24.679 --> 01:05:30.440
We stopped paying attention, and so
healthy foods and good living they've receded.

755
01:05:31.000 --> 01:05:34.280
And as they are no longer worshiped, they would prefer to be left

756
01:05:34.320 --> 01:05:40.360
alone. But if you, if
you are still interested in genuine a genuinely

757
01:05:40.400 --> 01:05:49.400
healthy love style, they're still Tuatha
de dan and yogurt available. Yeah.

758
01:05:51.000 --> 01:05:55.079
How do we not come up with
that last time? I don't know,

759
01:05:58.719 --> 01:06:01.199
but we didn't and we did.
Thank you? Like her? Good job?

760
01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:09.320
All right? I have some some
mischievous beings who delight in tacking on

761
01:06:09.559 --> 01:06:14.800
fees and a lot of trouble.
Mother. First, when traveling by plane,

762
01:06:15.119 --> 01:06:18.480
dicks you know, you know what
they're called, what air fairies?

763
01:06:21.400 --> 01:06:26.000
But that's serious. Those really cost
a lot of money. Why to hard

764
01:06:26.039 --> 01:06:31.960
working Americans who want to want to
go to NASCAR. There's your puns.

765
01:06:32.519 --> 01:06:39.559
Sorry about it. I can't feel
remorse anymore. So them's puns, them's

766
01:06:39.639 --> 01:06:44.239
puns. Go drink your own beers
and then they'll be hilarious. Oh my

767
01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:48.760
gosh, we've we have really Okay, I'm telling you right now, a

768
01:06:48.880 --> 01:06:54.159
year from now when we kick off
season four, this is the limit.

769
01:06:54.639 --> 01:06:58.239
We can't do more than this without
throwing up. Yeah, yeah, the

770
01:06:58.440 --> 01:07:01.920
cheese. To the limit right now, Yeah, to a limit that she

771
01:07:02.320 --> 01:07:09.639
is ground it. Oh guys,
this some listener mail. Uh so,

772
01:07:11.039 --> 01:07:15.079
just kidding. We're sober right now. Sorry, you guys have to peep

773
01:07:15.119 --> 01:07:18.440
behind the curtain. But um,
when we record and when we try to

774
01:07:18.519 --> 01:07:23.920
keep listener mail up to up to
scratch temporarily, yeah, I think we

775
01:07:24.039 --> 01:07:27.639
discussed this before. The listener mails
kind of get recorded separately so that they

776
01:07:27.719 --> 01:07:30.360
come out when they're hot and fresh
from your mind o them. Yep.

777
01:07:30.519 --> 01:07:35.639
So also, I'd like to take
this opportunity to say I'm sorry. Liquor

778
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:40.039
makes a beast of us all have
to apologize. You sound fine in this

779
01:07:40.199 --> 01:07:45.159
episode. That means that I have
a problem. That's a that's a serious

780
01:07:45.280 --> 01:08:00.199
issue. Here's some listener mail.
Uh listener, Danielle hits us. He's

781
01:08:00.199 --> 01:08:03.880
been catching up through the annals of
our of our backlog. Good better than

782
01:08:03.960 --> 01:08:10.960
the anals. I was gonna say, thats of like from the eurectum of

783
01:08:11.039 --> 01:08:16.800
our poop still drunk our catalog.
And so she just listened to our spring

784
01:08:16.840 --> 01:08:20.800
heel Jack episode, which is a
crowd pleaser. And she got in ahead

785
01:08:20.880 --> 01:08:29.319
and looked up some Cockney slang for
sweet sweet titties. How about the bracon

786
01:08:29.399 --> 01:08:32.800
bits? Oh um, a newer
one, the brad Pitts ding from the

787
01:08:33.439 --> 01:08:39.680
sixties, the earth a Kits ding
Thrupenny bits, Ding, bacon bits.

788
01:08:40.920 --> 01:08:46.279
Put them on your salad, chuff
ter bits, m Bristol bits. Yes,

789
01:08:46.840 --> 01:08:51.560
and there's a bonus one, the
ducks and geese for fucking police.

790
01:08:53.199 --> 01:08:58.840
Hey, thank you. Danielle's are
a consistent delight and I suspect you to

791
01:08:58.920 --> 01:09:02.600
be one of the finest people I've
ever known. Moving on, we have

792
01:09:02.680 --> 01:09:06.239
a ton of listener mails, So
we're gonna we're getting through this. We're

793
01:09:06.279 --> 01:09:10.600
gonna go like super fast. Yeah, we're gonna go fast. Here's here's

794
01:09:10.600 --> 01:09:13.880
the deal. Not all of it
coming out this week, but we'll we'll

795
01:09:13.960 --> 01:09:15.960
section it off and keep throwing it
in. We'll bumping the road from our

796
01:09:16.039 --> 01:09:18.119
hiatus. But we're gonna work.
We're working through it. Yeah, we'll

797
01:09:18.119 --> 01:09:20.159
work through it. Um. So
if you don't hear yours this week,

798
01:09:20.199 --> 01:09:24.720
don't fritten in, don't fritten it'll
come. We got a we got a

799
01:09:24.760 --> 01:09:29.239
great email from Jay. Jay.
What's going on, buddy? He says,

800
01:09:29.239 --> 01:09:32.319
he's still still faithfully listening. Thank
you so much, and um hates

801
01:09:32.319 --> 01:09:38.039
Alex Jones. Ding ding ding ding. That's all we needed. Well done,

802
01:09:38.079 --> 01:09:43.520
welcome aboard, Jay, And he
wants us to do uh like Jones,

803
01:09:45.399 --> 01:09:48.039
she exactly what they want us to
do. They want us they want

804
01:09:48.079 --> 01:09:51.680
us to investigate Alex Jones and they
want us to find something. He's blowing

805
01:09:51.720 --> 01:09:54.760
the lid off, all right,
and they want us to blow the lid

806
01:09:54.800 --> 01:09:59.239
off that which is which is an
amazing thing, double lad blow. Science

807
01:09:59.279 --> 01:10:01.199
will tell you it's impossible, but
not me. No, no, no,

808
01:10:01.439 --> 01:10:05.319
that's that's not intellectualism. And I'm
not gonna have any part of it.

809
01:10:05.479 --> 01:10:10.600
Jason, I can blow the lid
off. The lid has been blown

810
01:10:10.640 --> 01:10:15.960
off of Thanks for letting us do
that, Jay. Well, yeah,

811
01:10:16.119 --> 01:10:20.760
you know what we got close with
the old uh willow really, but he's

812
01:10:20.840 --> 01:10:25.439
no Alex Jones. That's true.
We might we might have to. I

813
01:10:25.520 --> 01:10:28.840
think we shouldn't go for that.
That's a good idea. Great, thanks

814
01:10:28.960 --> 01:10:30.199
Jay. Okay, now we got
up. We got a lot of emails

815
01:10:30.239 --> 01:10:42.039
to get through here, so I
used coming there. Dun Luke writes us

816
01:10:48.800 --> 01:10:53.560
in this missive the Northern Militia has
been making some trouble. I've been our

817
01:10:53.640 --> 01:10:58.159
previously peaceful via. I have some
puns with which who arm ourselves in order

818
01:10:58.239 --> 01:11:00.800
that we may removed him. A
small island off the close of Canada,

819
01:11:01.079 --> 01:11:05.119
a pit was dug. In it
was found several logs and more dirt than

820
01:11:05.199 --> 01:11:10.399
more logs. Upon closer examination,
it was revealed that they were not lugs,

821
01:11:10.479 --> 01:11:15.800
but the long dough fried pastries.
A company was formed to exploit the

822
01:11:15.960 --> 01:11:23.960
money pit, the Turo Company Truro. I wish you guys could see,

823
01:11:24.920 --> 01:11:29.600
like when Floriad does accents, he
has a lot of hand gestures and he's

824
01:11:29.640 --> 01:11:33.119
got this moment he's that that always
rolls out whenever Don Luke's in town.

825
01:11:33.880 --> 01:11:39.720
In the lacesc religious movement was formed
in response to the predominant meat eating culture

826
01:11:40.079 --> 01:11:46.000
promoting freethinking vegetarianism. He called itself
the Church of Satan. Yeah it's a

827
01:11:46.720 --> 01:11:53.079
it's the meat less meat. Yeah, it's actually entirely gluten So if you're

828
01:11:53.119 --> 01:11:58.119
on a gluten free bat diet,
used tale. Satan is Satan. There's

829
01:11:58.159 --> 01:12:02.880
a new religious Satan, this movement
down in Australia. They're calling themselves good

830
01:12:02.960 --> 01:12:10.439
Day and Satanism. I hope this
POSSI will help in the good fight until

831
01:12:10.520 --> 01:12:18.159
next time. I remained fair for
yours. Moving on all right, Thank

832
01:12:18.199 --> 01:12:24.319
you. Josie hits us up with
a great correction. Because Josie is more

833
01:12:24.800 --> 01:12:31.880
polylingual than we are. It turns
out that lamb um doesn't really exist in

834
01:12:31.960 --> 01:12:36.680
French because the word rhombus is different. So if you're going to France and

835
01:12:36.760 --> 01:12:43.439
you have to talk about a terrible
uh polyhedron, then you would want to

836
01:12:43.479 --> 01:12:49.319
say less ordered that at your finest
cafe next to your lass. I like

837
01:12:49.439 --> 01:12:54.760
putting them in my mouth when I
have a cold. Thank you, Josie,

838
01:12:54.960 --> 01:13:00.520
Josie and X. Please everyone,
especially our French listeners. He's excuse

839
01:13:00.600 --> 01:13:04.520
our franklish. And then thanks Josie
for helping try to elevate us we're gutters.

840
01:13:04.880 --> 01:13:09.800
We heard from Josie. Now we've
heard from Jesse. Yeah, Jesse,

841
01:13:09.960 --> 01:13:12.199
Jesse, Jesse, Jesse, nice
to meet you, Jesse. Right

842
01:13:12.279 --> 01:13:18.359
in Hey Jesse. Uh, next
Jesse. Bessie sends us a really fun

843
01:13:18.439 --> 01:13:23.279
link on YouTube of a video of
some guy who has some opinions about the

844
01:13:23.359 --> 01:13:27.760
hollow Earth. Yeah, yikes,
wow, all right, that the Earth

845
01:13:27.880 --> 01:13:31.600
is entirely hollow because it is the
outer shell of everything that we're all on

846
01:13:31.680 --> 01:13:35.039
the inside, like Halo. Yeah, it doesn't spin, it's not actual

847
01:13:35.119 --> 01:13:41.079
planet. I think there was some
script spaces the words. I think there's

848
01:13:41.119 --> 01:13:44.439
some scripture in there. Uh,
guys covering a lot of basis stuff going

849
01:13:44.479 --> 01:13:46.479
on. Guy, I was staring
a lot of buckets. This is a

850
01:13:46.680 --> 01:13:53.439
prime example of the enormous holes you
can fall down in YouTube, literal or

851
01:13:53.520 --> 01:13:56.399
otherwise. Right, Um, thank
you Jesse. Yeah, thanks Jesse.

852
01:13:57.199 --> 01:14:00.680
Were I love get out of it? Uh. Next up, we heard

853
01:14:00.720 --> 01:14:12.239
from our friend worldwide west www dog
old Worldwide himself taking the yarn on the

854
01:14:12.319 --> 01:14:15.199
corkboard, connecting them. Oh,
I love this. So from our our

855
01:14:15.359 --> 01:14:21.479
kin height to Cthulhu Mythos episode,
he is from left field connecting the yarn

856
01:14:21.600 --> 01:14:26.199
from our I don't know where cameraman
didn't even know it follow him. There

857
01:14:26.319 --> 01:14:31.199
comes last Gin episode saying you got
a full head of steam on him,

858
01:14:31.960 --> 01:14:35.319
securities trying to get a hold of
him. One look at me stopping.

859
01:14:35.479 --> 01:14:38.880
Musta greased himself up before he got
on in the field, because look at

860
01:14:38.960 --> 01:14:41.000
him run. Look at the run. They can't hold onto him. Well,

861
01:14:41.039 --> 01:14:45.800
he shook another one. He's heading
for that fans and he's over and

862
01:14:45.960 --> 01:14:48.079
you know natastical rules are you get
over the fats? They can't touch you.

863
01:14:48.359 --> 01:14:50.800
I got away, You got away
with it. If I were naked,

864
01:14:50.800 --> 01:14:54.399
I would not attempt that jump.
Well you know what, though,

865
01:14:54.479 --> 01:14:56.359
you know that's why we're not on
the field. That's why we don't.

866
01:14:56.359 --> 01:15:00.680
We don't have the guts to be
naked on the field. Point I should

867
01:15:00.680 --> 01:15:03.359
point out at note point, are
we accusing less of running around greased up

868
01:15:03.479 --> 01:15:12.000
and make but his ideas do so. He's saying, Jin as we know

869
01:15:12.119 --> 01:15:15.760
them are subspecies of dimensional chambler who
are bound to serve the Black Pharaoh,

870
01:15:15.840 --> 01:15:18.960
and that's why they're located truly in
the Middle East or wherever the cult of

871
01:15:19.000 --> 01:15:24.560
the Black Parole can be found.
This is coming from a cool gaming seed

872
01:15:25.079 --> 01:15:30.840
for the Cthulhu mythos, lots of
fun ideas that to me, this is

873
01:15:30.920 --> 01:15:38.399
like you're taking concepts in gaming that
world and coming up with some cool theories

874
01:15:38.560 --> 01:15:43.199
in i RL in real life.
I think that I think that there is

875
01:15:43.279 --> 01:15:46.560
not, and I think that it
will because video games have finally caught on.

876
01:15:46.640 --> 01:15:50.600
You know, it's like generationally they're
just their uniform. That's not that

877
01:15:50.760 --> 01:15:54.560
thing the kids are doing anymore.
It's the thing everyone's doing. Yeah,

878
01:15:55.159 --> 01:15:58.680
And I think that the idea of
and you know, there's always those kind

879
01:15:58.720 --> 01:16:03.319
of pithy, irritating um everything I
needed to learn and we learned in Yeah,

880
01:16:03.960 --> 01:16:10.000
but there are genuine real world lessons
in game theory in how you solve

881
01:16:10.079 --> 01:16:13.800
puzzles in games, or or lessons
that you can't apply to your life that

882
01:16:13.960 --> 01:16:19.840
you learn in games about decision making
and UM and prioritizationization. And I think

883
01:16:19.880 --> 01:16:24.399
that those are really valuable. And
I think which legendary weapon is the best

884
01:16:24.439 --> 01:16:27.680
to use? Yeah, exactly,
you got to know like percentages and statistics.

885
01:16:27.760 --> 01:16:30.039
It's like I want to know exactly
how often I'll be casting that fireball?

886
01:16:30.159 --> 01:16:33.319
Are you going to get more of
a percent chance to find magical items

887
01:16:33.399 --> 01:16:36.159
with this or are you going to
just raise your vitality. We've been playing

888
01:16:36.159 --> 01:16:41.359
a lot of Diablo lately, Floria, and I've been playing a lot of

889
01:16:41.439 --> 01:16:46.600
Diablo anyway. Thanks, thanks West, Thanks for right, thank you cool

890
01:16:46.680 --> 01:16:49.880
idea, and you guys, we're
gonna cut it it this week so as

891
01:16:49.920 --> 01:16:54.199
not to get too drunk in the
tooth. It's right, and and enjoy

892
01:16:54.439 --> 01:17:00.159
how we end this episode. Yeah, boy, back to our altar or

893
01:17:00.199 --> 01:17:04.079
egos who don't remember much. Yeah, Dare and Dare. Yeah, this

894
01:17:04.239 --> 01:17:08.239
is gonna. This is actually kind
of weirdly jarring. I'm excited to see

895
01:17:08.319 --> 01:17:11.520
how this hurt. Like this sounds
like drunk, get drunk and drunkie.

896
01:17:12.079 --> 01:17:15.159
You know what, though, I'm
gonna I'm genuinely going to be going to

897
01:17:15.279 --> 01:17:20.960
feel as shameful if I don't determine
a difference because I was cross eyed.

898
01:17:21.479 --> 01:17:25.399
It means that I maybe I'm the
chosen one to be drunk all the time.

899
01:17:25.640 --> 01:17:29.239
Yeah, maybe that's a lifestyle.
You'll drink all our sins away Jesus

900
01:17:30.119 --> 01:17:34.920
just like him. All right,
listen, thank you guys for getting through

901
01:17:35.000 --> 01:17:40.159
this. This is it's it's kind
of a litmus test in a way.

902
01:17:40.560 --> 01:17:43.600
Yeah, we thought it would be
whimsical, and maybe to you it is,

903
01:17:43.720 --> 01:17:46.520
but we're not drinks like we pretend
we are, but we're not.

904
01:17:47.039 --> 01:17:51.239
It's it's more than we expected for
sure. Goodness gracious, oh my gosh,

905
01:17:51.319 --> 01:17:56.399
and I okay, wait, hold
on, ladies and gentlemen of the

906
01:17:56.439 --> 01:18:00.640
podcast the donate button are you ready
to get real Flora? Yes, you

907
01:18:00.760 --> 01:18:05.680
are faking magnificent listeners, Yes,
thank you, I am. I am

908
01:18:06.319 --> 01:18:13.199
terrified and humbled and thankful that you
guys are actually using it. I have

909
01:18:13.279 --> 01:18:16.359
to point out that like we we
have, we had a discussion about this.

910
01:18:16.800 --> 01:18:23.880
The donations are used exclusively, not
for our liquor purchases, right,

911
01:18:26.159 --> 01:18:31.239
we pay for those ourselves. We
have some extraordinarily ambitious plans for the coming

912
01:18:31.399 --> 01:18:35.840
year and season three that we will
be revealing. I'm not going to say

913
01:18:35.840 --> 01:18:40.199
shortly, but we have we gotta
tag some things down. But like we

914
01:18:40.640 --> 01:18:47.279
have a real genuine agenda and your
your contributions, your donations matter right extraordinarily,

915
01:18:47.680 --> 01:18:51.840
and we're going to find a way
we were working on it right now

916
01:18:53.199 --> 01:18:58.079
to immortalize you for this and this
is no I'm so sorry, Fancy Kat,

917
01:18:58.159 --> 01:19:00.439
but you have to know and I'm
not making this up because we've been

918
01:19:00.520 --> 01:19:05.960
drinking for now six hours. We
have a very real plan for your certificate,

919
01:19:06.079 --> 01:19:09.600
and it is going to blow your
mind out your ass. Yeah.

920
01:19:09.760 --> 01:19:13.880
Yeah, Fancy Cat is the King
of Halloween. No amount of Crystal twenty

921
01:19:13.960 --> 01:19:23.000
thirteen not for Fancy Cat is simply
the King of Halloween emeritus. And your

922
01:19:23.079 --> 01:19:28.279
certificate will, much like your donations, will humble you. You will be

923
01:19:29.000 --> 01:19:31.720
shocked at your certificate. We figured
out a plan for it. It's gonna

924
01:19:31.720 --> 01:19:35.720
be amazing. We do have a
plan. We pained. Oh oh my

925
01:19:35.880 --> 01:19:41.439
god, oh my god, you
and this will so much better. This

926
01:19:41.560 --> 01:19:46.279
will affect all listeners and especially those
within the Chicago land aheah, or maybe

927
01:19:46.359 --> 01:19:51.640
even like four hours away. You
sound like you're in the penalty box Chicago

928
01:19:53.119 --> 01:20:00.199
area. This is better than Chicago. Oh, oh my god, there's

929
01:20:00.239 --> 01:20:02.039
no penalty box. Now. We
have a three beer rule. Did you

930
01:20:02.119 --> 01:20:09.760
know that? We do have a
three billion three We really do like after

931
01:20:09.920 --> 01:20:14.039
three beers, like I can't you
can't do together. We're do some ghost

932
01:20:14.079 --> 01:20:18.680
stories. We didn't have a Yule
episode where we told ghost stories, so

933
01:20:19.600 --> 01:20:24.840
our rule stories have not been frightening. We need to make them more frightening.

934
01:20:25.079 --> 01:20:27.560
It is true. It's been pointed
out to us, and it is

935
01:20:27.800 --> 01:20:31.239
absolutely true. Well and and the
next time we do ghost stories, TBD,

936
01:20:32.319 --> 01:20:36.760
slow your rule. People we like. In addition to a genuine search

937
01:20:36.920 --> 01:20:42.720
for actually frightening ghost stories, we're
also going to write our own. We're

938
01:20:42.720 --> 01:20:45.000
gonna we're gonna throw our hat in
the ring, like I'm not afraid to

939
01:20:45.039 --> 01:20:47.760
take. Some slings and arrows are
outrageous fortune here, I'm I'm with you,

940
01:20:48.520 --> 01:20:54.159
but so so things that are important. People who have contributed. I'm
