1
00:00:06,799 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 1: You are now listening to soft core history. What is up?

2
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 2: Welcome back to softcore History.

3
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,440
Speaker 1: I am your host for the week, Rob Fox, joined

4
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:23,879
as always by Dan Regester.

5
00:00:24,199 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 2: Just a normal November day.

6
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,559
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful November day.

7
00:00:27,719 --> 00:00:30,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, where my beanie. The weather is finally turned here

8
00:00:30,879 --> 00:00:31,760
in Austin, Texas.

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,840
Speaker 1: If you want to know what the weather's like outside,

10
00:00:34,119 --> 00:00:38,240
just look at Dan, because it looks like you just

11
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,479
got done working some Irish doc or some Boston or

12
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:42,439
Philadelphia doc.

13
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,119
Speaker 2: I always go like, full Mariner.

14
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 1: It was a gray rainy day and you look like

15
00:00:47,719 --> 00:00:50,119
you just got done with work on a gray rainy day.

16
00:00:50,039 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 2: With in my lighthouse.

17
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, work in the Lighthouse.

18
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:55,119
Speaker 2: But no more spooky season.

19
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: Too bad too, because even though this is not a

20
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,960
spooky episode today, this this might be more horrifying than

21
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:03,560
anything we.

22
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,719
Speaker 2: Talked about during Spooky Bob. That's history though. Yeah it's

23
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,959
mostly a horror fest.

24
00:01:09,359 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: There truly is a literal shit show. Yeah it's insane,

25
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,359
but you know we're talking.

26
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 2: It's usually blood and shit all the way down.

27
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: Oh boy, this involves a lot of blood and probably

28
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,319
presumably a lot of shit too.

29
00:01:24,359 --> 00:01:26,799
Speaker 2: If I had to guess, people poop themselves before they die.

30
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,400
Where as they die. Yeah, not only does all the

31
00:01:30,519 --> 00:01:33,519
DMT get released from your brand, but so do your bowels.

32
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: I think I think it's related. I think you feel so.

33
00:01:36,439 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 2: Good ayahuasca people poop themselves.

34
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's the same thing. You're actually having a

35
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:42,560
great time.

36
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 2: Are your buddies that go down to Peru or some

37
00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:49,799
weird church out in West Texas that do ayahuasca or

38
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,400
I began they ship themselves.

39
00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:54,319
Speaker 1: A shit and not just shit, not like a log.

40
00:01:54,159 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 2: And then they rolled in it for like eight hours. Yeah,

41
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,519
as they just trip balls and then they try to

42
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,439
tell you how they're better than you. Well, yeah, they

43
00:02:01,519 --> 00:02:04,280
killed the ego, and then another ego rises from the ashes.

44
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,439
Speaker 1: A stronger, a much stronger egos from the ashes. Yeah,

45
00:02:09,479 --> 00:02:13,000
today we are a little doubly fitting. One because it's

46
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,280
more horrifying than anything we did in Spooky both in

47
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:21,240
my opinion. And two, it's a we're talking about a sport,

48
00:02:21,759 --> 00:02:24,840
good old sports ball in a way that's my least

49
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:28,240
favorite person on the planet, I believe, being too good

50
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,039
for sports.

51
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, sports ball. And then he's just like bread and Circuses, man,

52
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,960
bread and Circuses just trying to distract you. It's like,

53
00:02:38,039 --> 00:02:39,400
good man, I want a distraction.

54
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, like they don't need to distract you because you're

55
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:42,960
a fucking moron.

56
00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:45,159
Speaker 2: We're doing this show as we're watching a game.

57
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how we can do both.

58
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 2: That's how good we are. Yeah, we're pros.

59
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 1: Today we are talking about.

60
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 2: A sport game.

61
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,599
Speaker 1: I don't know what you want to call it. That

62
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,159
was it's extremely pain for me to talk about.

63
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: So it has to be about like Kansas basketball and no, no, no,

64
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:05,560
doctor James names.

65
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: No, no, we don't. I don't acknowledge that man or

66
00:03:08,439 --> 00:03:14,159
that state, uh Canadian. We're talking about the not Enlightenment era,

67
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,960
just barely pre Enlightenment era, so like sixteen seventeen hundreds,

68
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:25,719
early seventeen hundreds. The sports or game of fox tossing.

69
00:03:27,039 --> 00:03:31,199
Speaker 2: Man. Oh so it's your literal name. Yeah, yeah, your

70
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,360
spirit animal. You'd assume. Yes, I see foxes kind of

71
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,599
run around here all the time. Now there's I want one.

72
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:39,639
Speaker 1: They're sweet.

73
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,479
Speaker 2: They are once you know, Chase kicks the bucket, which

74
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:47,719
is any day now, sorry, Bud, Just that's how time works.

75
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,719
I would probably wait like six months and I'm maybe

76
00:03:51,759 --> 00:03:53,039
pick myself up with fox.

77
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: So Allegedly they smell like absolutely I know, and hiss everywhere,

78
00:03:57,159 --> 00:03:59,479
but like somebody's just got to breed that out of

79
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:01,919
regine code them because apparently they're like a dog, you

80
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:02,919
litter box trade.

81
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: Allegedly, they have become more and more friendly to humans

82
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,319
and they're trying to like domesticate themselves. They're in like

83
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,759
the midst of an evolutionary same.

84
00:04:11,639 --> 00:04:14,479
Speaker 1: Way wolves were patterned one hundreds of thousand of years ago.

85
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're like, we're almost there with foxes, so give

86
00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:19,800
it another I don't know, thousand years or so.

87
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: They did do that in Russia. They it was like

88
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,000
a fifty year experiment where they're trying to domesticate foxes,

89
00:04:25,079 --> 00:04:29,199
and they essentially just like caught like a hundred and

90
00:04:29,319 --> 00:04:31,839
had all the nice ones bang each other and discarded

91
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:32,879
the mean ones.

92
00:04:32,959 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 2: Gotta get those genes out, and then just kept.

93
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:38,319
Speaker 1: Having the nice ones their kids bang each other discard

94
00:04:38,319 --> 00:04:38,800
the mean ones.

95
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: From that, they must have done that with circus bears.

96
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 1: No, you would think, but I've seen enough videos to

97
00:04:43,319 --> 00:04:44,199
know that's not true.

98
00:04:44,879 --> 00:04:47,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they at least now have the ability to

99
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,600
ride a tiny little motorcycle.

100
00:04:50,079 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but they will kill when they get the opportunity.

101
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,439
Speaker 2: That's like ten times smaller than their bodies. Yeah, they

102
00:04:56,519 --> 00:04:58,160
jumped through like a little hoop of fire.

103
00:04:58,439 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, talented animal, but they honestly, they do want to murder.

104
00:05:02,319 --> 00:05:05,959
Speaker 2: We don't give bears enough credit for what they say

105
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,000
that bears sit down and appreciate moments. So like landscapes,

106
00:05:10,319 --> 00:05:13,399
they see something beautiful from nature. Yeah, they'll take their

107
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,360
time and just appreciate where they are.

108
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: Well, I like that. I mean elephants have a religion.

109
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,120
They've seen elephants worshiping the sun.

110
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 2: Dude. Elephants are vindictive creatures. There's stories about them going

111
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:35,160
into like Indian towns, funerals and stuff, Yeah, and just

112
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:38,160
getting redemption for Yeah, they killed the guy because they're

113
00:05:38,199 --> 00:05:38,720
fucking with them.

114
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: Then they find the funeral and go to that.

115
00:05:40,079 --> 00:05:41,959
Speaker 2: And then they stomp all over his corpse.

116
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:47,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, which respect. But fox tossing in German known as

117
00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:53,439
Fuchsprenden which means fox bouncing, was a competitive blood sport.

118
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,040
It blew up in Europe, like I said, in the

119
00:05:56,079 --> 00:05:59,920
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It was real big with the

120
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,199
aristocrats of the Holy Roman Empire, of course it was.

121
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,480
And in regions like Saxony, Prussia and Austria.

122
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: I don't really get down with the Holy Roman Empire.

123
00:06:11,399 --> 00:06:15,519
No one does. They stink, No one does there. They're

124
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,920
not a reflection of our church.

125
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 1: No, and I've never once played as them in Medieval

126
00:06:19,639 --> 00:06:21,759
two Total War. I'll just pass every time.

127
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, like, no thanks, they're boring.

128
00:06:24,879 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's nothing, nothing that gets my rocks off.

129
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 2: Hol in Lithuania, Get them out of here.

130
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:36,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, fake as fuck. So fox tossing kind of started

131
00:06:36,959 --> 00:06:43,160
as an informal and then formal almost like basically a

132
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,600
pregame for big like royal hunts. Sure.

133
00:06:48,439 --> 00:06:50,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's like a nice little warm up.

134
00:06:50,439 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: It's how you kick off the the hunting season or

135
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:53,720
the hunting weekend.

136
00:06:54,519 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, before the party starts and the boys play a

137
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,120
couple of games of flip cup beer pong yep, just

138
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,519
getting the tables warm fox toss, Little fox toss.

139
00:07:03,639 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. They would also do it before social gatherings as well.

140
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,959
So it's a pre game. This is a pregame activity.

141
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 2: Is and it involves real foxes. Oh yeah, the name's

142
00:07:11,639 --> 00:07:12,240
quite literal.

143
00:07:12,399 --> 00:07:14,319
Speaker 1: Oh, it's extremely They.

144
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 2: Couldn't do what the dumb ass Scots did or was

145
00:07:17,519 --> 00:07:19,759
it the Welsh that roll a wheel of cheese down

146
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:20,120
the hill?

147
00:07:20,279 --> 00:07:24,439
Speaker 1: Nope, Nope, I had the murder that only hurts the

148
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:25,639
participant had the murder.

149
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:30,399
Speaker 2: Critters, We should, honestly, when we do our travel show

150
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,680
one day, participate in that cheese wheel hill thing. I

151
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:39,079
think we should fox toss. We might get some complaints

152
00:07:39,079 --> 00:07:40,519
for that, Yeah, might not make air.

153
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,399
Speaker 1: Maybe how ethical is it to if you're going to

154
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,600
enjoy another culture And I'm just specifically talking about if

155
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,160
we ever went to the Dominican Republic.

156
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,399
Speaker 2: Go to a cockfight. Listen, we're just taking it in. Yeah,

157
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,639
we're not. We don't even have to participate, you know. Yeah,

158
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,000
we are just watching and it's gonna happen whether we're

159
00:08:00,079 --> 00:08:00,439
there or not.

160
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:02,439
Speaker 1: Right, we can't stop it.

161
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,319
Speaker 2: If we intervene, that's almost worse.

162
00:08:06,279 --> 00:08:07,279
Speaker 1: It's colonialism.

163
00:08:07,399 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're stopping their traditions, their beliefs.

164
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: We're white savoring them or something. Yeah, you gotta let

165
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,879
them cockfight. By my favorite thing, when Petro mart they

166
00:08:16,879 --> 00:08:18,720
try to get Patro Martinez of all people in trouble

167
00:08:18,759 --> 00:08:21,000
for going to a cockfight during the winter one time.

168
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,720
It's like, first off, this man is untouchable, Like he's uncancellable. Yeah,

169
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,560
this was pre cancel culture, but he's he was uncancellable.

170
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,079
Big Poppy was probably there too. Oh, my Big Poppy

171
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,159
was before he got shot. He was banging a drug deal.

172
00:08:33,519 --> 00:08:33,759
Speaker 2: You know.

173
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: Big Poppy's been to cockfights. Yeah, like, there's no question

174
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,919
in my mind he has seen a rooster disembowel another rooster.

175
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:42,399
If you are.

176
00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 2: Banging one of the biggest drug dealers on the islands,

177
00:08:46,519 --> 00:08:49,399
you know, Mommy or whatever, he probably met.

178
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: Her at a cock fight. He probably threw out the

179
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:53,799
first cock.

180
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:58,279
Speaker 2: Yeah. Also, they're they're chickens. Come on, it's like I'm

181
00:08:58,279 --> 00:08:59,120
gonna eat them later.

182
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, is it really? That's not a bit anything worse

183
00:09:02,279 --> 00:09:04,480
than we do to them now a.

184
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 2: Dogfight, that's that's a different story, different story. Yeah, these

185
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,000
are chickens. We eat chickens. Yeah, it's they're fine.

186
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 1: So by the late sixteen hundreds, oh and often it

187
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,399
would be men and women that would do this, sometimes

188
00:09:15,399 --> 00:09:17,559
in mixed pairs. So by the late sixteen hundreds it

189
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,440
has spread across like not Germany, but like German speaking

190
00:09:21,519 --> 00:09:24,000
lands to include like Austria and stuff like that, and

191
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,480
got even into some other European courts, I think, including

192
00:09:26,519 --> 00:09:28,919
like Poland and stuff like that. And it became, like

193
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,320
I said, a pregame not only for hunts, but for banquets, masquerades,

194
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:37,000
all sorts of stuff. Charles the sixth of Austria was

195
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,120
big into it. So here's how it worked. Before we

196
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:39,879
get into some stories.

197
00:09:39,919 --> 00:09:42,519
Speaker 2: Stead of course they were all into it. And this

198
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,080
is another thing that drives me nuts because it kind

199
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,120
of spans into the early nineteen hundreds, especially with the

200
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,200
English where they do all these like hunts, yeah, and

201
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,799
all these things that they kind of criticize Americans for.

202
00:09:55,879 --> 00:09:58,399
Now it's like, Doug, you were who we got the

203
00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,000
ideas from.

204
00:09:59,159 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're just two hundred years behind you empire wise.

205
00:10:02,799 --> 00:10:06,519
Speaker 2: So for some reason the British just like are appalled

206
00:10:06,919 --> 00:10:09,960
also by the notion of hunting. Now. Although here's the

207
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:10,120
other thing.

208
00:10:10,159 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: Two a fox hunt, you're not eating that fox like,

209
00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:13,799
you're just going out there to kill shit.

210
00:10:13,799 --> 00:10:14,799
Speaker 2: You're getting pelts.

211
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,919
Speaker 1: So don't yell at some redneck for killing an elk. Yeah,

212
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,879
he's gonna sustain his family, he's gonna turn into a

213
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:21,799
mountain of meat.

214
00:10:21,919 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 2: The New Natives they use every piece of the body.

215
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: It's Honestly, what's funny is is it's a very expensive hobby.

216
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,000
Getting a fucking deer or.

217
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,159
Speaker 2: Elk like hunting is elitist as hell at this point.

218
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:35,159
Speaker 1: A little bit.

219
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 2: You go to a bass pro shop, a Cabella's. Yeah,

220
00:10:37,799 --> 00:10:41,759
you're you're not leaving that store without spending at least

221
00:10:41,759 --> 00:10:42,519
five hundred dollars.

222
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, so here's how it worked.

223
00:10:45,279 --> 00:10:47,399
Speaker 2: It's so boring though, I couldn't get into it. My

224
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,200
dad tried his hardest. Yeah, took me on hunts from

225
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:56,000
like ages eight to thirteen. Sitting a deer stand. Obviously

226
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,000
it's coming up deer season in Pennsylvania December. It's first

227
00:10:59,039 --> 00:11:01,600
week of December, as cold as hell. You gotta wake

228
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:03,960
up at five am. Yeah, you're sitting in a tree

229
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,200
stand with your old man. Can't talk to him, no,

230
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,799
because you don't want to scare off the deer. Nope,

231
00:11:09,639 --> 00:11:10,679
and then you don't see anything.

232
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: I guess nowadays people could do it alone, listen to

233
00:11:13,039 --> 00:11:14,320
a podcast or some shit, but.

234
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,879
Speaker 2: Put your headphones in. Yeah, dude, I feel like that's

235
00:11:16,879 --> 00:11:20,440
how you get flagged. But just somebody else, Well, what

236
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:21,559
are you wearing? Not paying attention?

237
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,399
Speaker 1: Wearing a deer hat? You're gonna stand. Where are they

238
00:11:23,399 --> 00:11:26,600
shooting at the stand? Listen, you can't have a stand

239
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:27,440
in your line of fire.

240
00:11:29,039 --> 00:11:31,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, but some of the people up there I just

241
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:32,799
would not trust.

242
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: I'm totally fair.

243
00:11:35,519 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 2: I feel like I've almost been shot going hunting. I'm

244
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,320
not gonna name names. Your dad it wasn't my dad, okay,

245
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,120
and it wasn't my godfather, but it was my godfather's kid.

246
00:11:46,799 --> 00:11:48,399
Speaker 1: Well I don't know his name, so it doesn't matter.

247
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,039
So here's how fox tossing worked. It's a team of

248
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,120
two and they would stand on either end of this

249
00:11:57,279 --> 00:12:03,960
long like claw that was about twenty to twenty five

250
00:12:04,039 --> 00:12:06,799
feet long, So think like a cloth about like.

251
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 2: A foot or two feet wide, and.

252
00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:12,879
Speaker 1: They're standing on it either it's twenty twenty five feet long.

253
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,240
You know how like when like someone's on a sheet

254
00:12:15,279 --> 00:12:16,960
and there's like twenty people and they're throwing them in

255
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,559
the air. It's like that, but with two people. So

256
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,639
what happens is they're in an enclosed area, like an

257
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:29,240
enclosed little courtyard or whatever, and an animal or animals

258
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:35,080
is released into the enclosure. Typically it was a fox,

259
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:42,799
but they would also do rabbits, badgers, beavers, wildcats, sometimes

260
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:43,399
I'd look it up.

261
00:12:43,399 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 2: I guess lynks are in Europe. Listen, you're taking your

262
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,679
own life in your hands. If you're messing with beavers,

263
00:12:48,159 --> 00:12:50,480
as we well know, they'll come for you.

264
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, they would also do it they wanted to. If

265
00:12:53,879 --> 00:12:56,279
they were even feeling a little more hardcore, sometime they

266
00:12:56,279 --> 00:13:00,360
would do bores or wolves. Yeah, but foxes were the

267
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:01,840
main the main an.

268
00:13:01,879 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 2: Foxes just seemed like such an easy target.

269
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,159
Speaker 1: They're light, but there I think there's like a cunningness

270
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,399
to them that makes you think like you're doing something.

271
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: Slives a fox exactly. Yeah, but you're not really in

272
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,639
any danger. Foxes aren't gonna do a damn thing to you.

273
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:18,799
Speaker 1: Think about you and they do.

274
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,519
Speaker 2: Oh no, he broke my nail.

275
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: You don't want to get bitten by a fox, especially

276
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,200
if it's got rabies or some shit.

277
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 2: Listen, we all have rabies, we just a little bit.

278
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 1: It's like rabies is actually, uh all that HPV is.

279
00:13:32,759 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 2: We're about five years away from rabies being a performance

280
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,919
enhancing drug that influencers are gonna tell you to get

281
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,600
in order to boost your tea.

282
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,639
Speaker 1: You don't waste time drinking water your energy all the time.

283
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,120
You just grind, grind, grind, can't sleep.

284
00:13:47,159 --> 00:13:50,039
Speaker 2: You're an animal mode. I broke my leg, didn't notice.

285
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,759
You just kept going, just grinding, dude.

286
00:13:54,840 --> 00:14:00,399
Speaker 1: So they would they would wait for the animal to

287
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,120
walk or run, depending on how scared it was, across

288
00:14:03,159 --> 00:14:06,759
the fabric, and then the pair would you know, yank

289
00:14:07,159 --> 00:14:08,799
yank it up as fast as they could.

290
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,039
Speaker 2: At the same time, you're at a summer camp. You

291
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,279
get that giant parachute out. Yeah, you're just kind of

292
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,799
going up and down, up and down, but there's there's

293
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,559
now a fox in the middle. Yes, and you're just

294
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:21,600
slinging it.

295
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,559
Speaker 1: Yes, And that's what you try to do. You try

296
00:14:23,559 --> 00:14:25,720
to toss it as high in the air as you can,

297
00:14:25,799 --> 00:14:27,679
and you are awarded points.

298
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,519
Speaker 2: For how high, for how high you get it, as

299
00:14:29,559 --> 00:14:32,440
long as you catch it though. Nope, it's just it's

300
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,600
a sheer carnival game. Yes, where you're just trying to

301
00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:38,559
get to the top of the bell. Yep, Okay, this

302
00:14:38,639 --> 00:14:42,960
is there's gotta be a little bit of skill involved.

303
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,360
This doesn't sound like a ton There.

304
00:14:44,279 --> 00:14:46,919
Speaker 1: Is skill involved. You got to catch it right at

305
00:14:46,919 --> 00:14:47,480
the right time.

306
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 2: It should be how high you can throw it, but

307
00:14:49,399 --> 00:14:51,279
then also maintain it catch it.

308
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: I think getting it clean is harder than you think.

309
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 2: Which is why it should be part of the game.

310
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,919
Well on the skill, not a game, a chance.

311
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,159
Speaker 1: You see, they often didn't have time to catch it

312
00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:10,039
or a chance to catch it because also in the enclosure,

313
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:14,480
usually we're waiting pack of hounds that would run in

314
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,799
and rip the now crippled animal to pieces as it

315
00:15:18,919 --> 00:15:19,600
hit the ground.

316
00:15:20,559 --> 00:15:25,759
Speaker 2: So like the least fun rodeo clowns imaginable. Yeah, they

317
00:15:25,799 --> 00:15:28,600
come in to clean up. Yeah, not great.

318
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,519
Speaker 1: And again this was a fancy party pregame. Just so

319
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:33,240
we're clear here.

320
00:15:33,279 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 2: Well, the hounds are hungry. The hounds are hungry.

321
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: They always are. They probably starve the hounds too, Yeah,

322
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:42,799
I'm sure they starve that house.

323
00:15:42,919 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 2: Like, No, don't worry, dude, we got a fox toss

324
00:15:45,039 --> 00:15:48,320
coming up in two weeks. They'll be they can make it.

325
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, they'll be fine. So any animals that survived both

326
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:56,120
the hounds and the fall itself, because they often died

327
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,600
in the fall, would just be clubbed to death at

328
00:15:58,600 --> 00:15:59,919
the end of the competition.

329
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: I mean, if you get captured in ne're a fox

330
00:16:02,399 --> 00:16:05,559
and this sporting event, you're not making it out alive.

331
00:16:06,639 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: No, literally no, so you have to imagine the picture

332
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:10,399
at the end.

333
00:16:10,399 --> 00:16:13,279
Speaker 2: They not have a shortage of foxes. You know how

334
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,440
if they go too long in a baseball game, like

335
00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:21,960
say eighteen innings or so, they almost run out of baseballs. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

336
00:16:22,159 --> 00:16:24,320
and the game just has to end or like they'll

337
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:25,559
have to go to the stands and be like, yo,

338
00:16:25,639 --> 00:16:28,159
we need to need those baseball specks that you caught

339
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:28,840
the foul balls?

340
00:16:28,919 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

341
00:16:29,639 --> 00:16:31,519
Speaker 2: How long does it take to gather the amount of

342
00:16:31,519 --> 00:16:34,639
foxes needed to participate in a fox tosk? Look, I

343
00:16:34,679 --> 00:16:35,919
don't think you do this on a whim.

344
00:16:36,279 --> 00:16:36,919
Speaker 1: It's planned.

345
00:16:37,559 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, It's not like a weekly thing.

346
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,279
Speaker 1: No, no, God, it's for big events. Again, a lot

347
00:16:42,279 --> 00:16:43,960
of it's like hunting season or if you have a

348
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:45,919
big banquet you're coming up in a month or two.

349
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,519
You know, was like, oh, well we should probably kick

350
00:16:47,559 --> 00:16:48,600
things off with a fox toss.

351
00:16:48,679 --> 00:16:51,519
Speaker 2: Yeah. They're not breeding foxes, they're not keeping them, They're

352
00:16:51,559 --> 00:16:54,679
just going out and catch them. Okay, I guess that's

353
00:16:54,679 --> 00:16:57,919
the skill to itself, is just being able to have

354
00:16:58,039 --> 00:16:59,559
enough foxes for the fox toss.

355
00:16:59,639 --> 00:17:01,799
Speaker 1: Yes, the real skill, And most fox tosses, I don't

356
00:17:01,799 --> 00:17:03,759
think we're like horribly big. You know, maybe you got

357
00:17:03,759 --> 00:17:04,799
twenty thirty foxes.

358
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 2: There's such a cute animal, dude. I can't do this

359
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,680
with bores, bores sounds.

360
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 1: They did do it with some bars sometimes, and we'll

361
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,519
get to that. But you have to imagine the end

362
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,279
of one of these. Essentially, you've got crippled foxes dragging

363
00:17:17,319 --> 00:17:19,400
themselves away from hounds on their front line.

364
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 2: I don't want to imagine this. This is grotesque.

365
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:27,319
Speaker 1: There's blood and viscera everywhere, just like fox intestines strewn about.

366
00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 2: I now want to do this to you for putting

367
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,880
in the image in my head for these poor animals.

368
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:34,880
I have a soft spot.

369
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: Told you it was worse than anything listening about spooky Bud.

370
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 2: We can talk all about your children, heard in other children, right,

371
00:17:42,799 --> 00:17:47,640
But when we come across sixteenth seventeenth century foxes, that's

372
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:48,400
where I traw a lone.

373
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: No go gets you. It's a soft spot. The events

374
00:17:52,759 --> 00:17:56,759
would last hours, uh and again the bigger ones included hundreds,

375
00:17:56,759 --> 00:17:58,079
if not thousands, of animals.

376
00:17:58,559 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 2: Uh.

377
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 1: Sometimes it would be themed, be a theme, a costume party,

378
00:18:02,519 --> 00:18:03,079
theme party.

379
00:18:04,279 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 2: Listen. I'm a sucker for a good theme. I love

380
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,599
dressing up. Yeah, you know, Halloween just came by. We

381
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,880
have the ren Fair coming up. You should we have

382
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,079
worse Fest too? What a month? What a month for me?

383
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:17,759
And dressing up?

384
00:18:17,759 --> 00:18:20,079
Speaker 1: You should actually propose a fox toss at the rent Fair.

385
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 2: Go old school, Yeah, yeah, do something on the catch

386
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:29,200
a fox that could be our exclusive content. Where we

387
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,759
first must procure the foxes. Yeah, then take them in,

388
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,079
get them inside rent Fair.

389
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, get them in the little combat arena that they have.

390
00:18:39,319 --> 00:18:41,559
Speaker 2: I'm just not gonna do that, all right, fair enough.

391
00:18:43,319 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: The animals would also be dressed up in costumes sometimes too.

392
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 2: Okay, so, like I mean, it wouldn't makes sense then,

393
00:18:51,519 --> 00:18:53,599
but right now, you throw them in like a little

394
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,160
Rocketman suit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, put him, put him as

395
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,759
an astronaut. Just send them into the stratosphere.

396
00:19:00,079 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: Fifths and then you know, obviously.

397
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 2: They look cute while they get mangled exactly like, Oh

398
00:19:08,519 --> 00:19:11,720
he's flying, covers up the blood and broken bone.

399
00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 1: He's flying. Oh he's not flying anymore. Oh he's not

400
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:15,599
walking anymore.

401
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 2: Even foxes aren't meant to fly. No, I think Sonic,

402
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,519
even in Sonic, he tails just kind of spins his

403
00:19:21,519 --> 00:19:24,759
his tail, but he doesn't really, he can't float that long.

404
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: He Yeah, it's like Mario with the raccoon costume is

405
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:29,759
more of a float situation.

406
00:19:30,559 --> 00:19:32,759
Speaker 2: So yeah, he just says hops.

407
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,599
Speaker 1: Obviously, sometimes in these events, the animals weren't the only

408
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,319
ones getting it. Believe it or not. Wild animals want

409
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:40,920
to survive.

410
00:19:41,759 --> 00:19:44,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they're gonna do everything. They're on a scratching claw.

411
00:19:44,519 --> 00:19:46,160
They're not just gonna willingly go out.

412
00:19:46,319 --> 00:19:49,839
Speaker 1: Yeah. And the big mistake that people, I guess often made,

413
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,039
the foxes really didn't do much. They would bite sometimes,

414
00:19:53,079 --> 00:19:56,079
for sure, But the animals that really got their money's

415
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,440
worth were the wildcats.

416
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 2: Okay, so links I guess what we would know as

417
00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:06,559
like Texas bobcat. Yeah, yeah, that kind of size.

418
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: Yes, they would have those in there as well.

419
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 2: Those are nasty fucks though.

420
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: They're mean as shit, and they were notorious for because

421
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,000
they have claws so they would be able to cling

422
00:20:15,039 --> 00:20:18,880
to the sling and not be tossed. And there are

423
00:20:19,039 --> 00:20:22,200
many such stories of them absolutely fucking people up in

424
00:20:22,279 --> 00:20:24,160
the ring. And we'll get to something.

425
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 2: I like that better. Because the fox really has no

426
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,480
defense for itself. It'll bite, it's not gonna do much damage.

427
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,720
But a little bobcat yeah, little Bobcat's going to mess

428
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:34,039
you up.

429
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: One account describes a courtier losing an eye to a

430
00:20:39,039 --> 00:20:41,319
wildcat's swipe.

431
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 2: An angry wildcats swipe. They don't they don't call it

432
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:45,680
off for an ipoke.

433
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: Well, here's what happened. He's in the ring, screaming with

434
00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:54,279
his eye dangling out of his face.

435
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:55,640
Speaker 2: Everyone else is laughing at him.

436
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,279
Speaker 1: The Emperor Augustus of I think the Holy Roman Empire

437
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,640
Augustus too, Augustus the Strong, he's the second I believe.

438
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he's the one that uh took on our

439
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:06,400
boy in Sweden.

440
00:21:06,519 --> 00:21:10,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, he as the man was screaming with

441
00:21:10,319 --> 00:21:15,160
his eye dangling around, laughed and gave a toast and

442
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,319
equipped that it would add character to the man.

443
00:21:17,839 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 2: Also, why was he referred to as Augustus the Strong?

444
00:21:20,279 --> 00:21:21,599
He was I think a fat fuck.

445
00:21:23,599 --> 00:21:25,079
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe he was strong before he was

446
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,039
fas like Robert Brathean type of situation.

447
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he also had like the powdered wig and

448
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,279
just a weird look, just.

449
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,559
Speaker 1: The style of the day. These did die out in

450
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,359
the late eighteenth century, so around the American Revolution, when

451
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,880
the Enlightenment kind of came about. And people wanted to

452
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:49,960
be more quote unquote civilized. Voltaire hated it, and it

453
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,839
was largely completely outlawed across Europe by the early eighteen hundreds.

454
00:21:55,319 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 2: How many years did it have though, about one hundred

455
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,599
and fifty Maybe took a hundred and two years out

456
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:01,960
all this. Yeah, I guess.

457
00:22:02,519 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: Jesus, so let's get into some stories of some big

458
00:22:05,519 --> 00:22:06,279
fox tosses.

459
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 2: You know what it is. It's on the fox of

460
00:22:08,839 --> 00:22:14,720
for not really being like a symbol in christiendom. It's

461
00:22:14,759 --> 00:22:16,960
not if it was, if it had more of a

462
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,759
place in the Bible. I don't think we're doing this

463
00:22:18,799 --> 00:22:19,359
to foxes.

464
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't don't even know if the fox gets

465
00:22:21,599 --> 00:22:24,720
any play in the Bible virtually non. Let me see,

466
00:22:25,039 --> 00:22:28,559
is a fox ever mentioned in the Bible.

467
00:22:29,279 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 2: Gotta think they're around.

468
00:22:31,519 --> 00:22:35,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's mostly been leads. I'm just wondered wondering. Yes,

469
00:22:35,839 --> 00:22:38,920
foxes mentioned in the Bible in the Old Testament Judges,

470
00:22:39,599 --> 00:22:42,400
in the story of Samson, the Song of Solomon, and

471
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,559
in the New Testament when Jesus compares his lack of

472
00:22:44,599 --> 00:22:49,519
a home to the layers of foxes. Apparently it's used

473
00:22:49,519 --> 00:22:53,119
to symbolize destruction cunning and the importance of watching out

474
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:54,880
for small problems that can cause bag.

475
00:22:54,839 --> 00:22:59,279
Speaker 2: Say they have a bad rap, that's why they're getting tossed. Yeah, yep, man,

476
00:22:59,799 --> 00:23:03,599
just years and years of bad propaganda against Fox has

477
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:04,160
led to this.

478
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: I'm obviously, I've no one's been more affected by it

479
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,079
than me. Yeah, it's tough.

480
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,559
Speaker 2: It was, honestly, why this show's not succeeding. I can't

481
00:23:14,559 --> 00:23:16,519
trust you a man named good Christian Man?

482
00:23:16,599 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, it is a very common Jewish surname.

483
00:23:19,799 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 2: So maybe that's why. Oh bad time for that.

484
00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: We had a Fox and a Goldman on here.

485
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:28,839
Speaker 2: And that one percent of Portuguese jew inside my blood. Yeah, yeakes,

486
00:23:29,279 --> 00:23:29,920
they've caught on.

487
00:23:30,039 --> 00:23:32,799
Speaker 1: Yeah Israel, if you're listening, they already think we're taking

488
00:23:32,799 --> 00:23:33,240
your money.

489
00:23:33,279 --> 00:23:38,759
Speaker 2: So check hasn't cleared. I want my seven thousand dollars. Yeah,

490
00:23:38,839 --> 00:23:39,200
all right.

491
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,319
Speaker 1: So here's the big Fox tosses through I history. The

492
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:46,440
first one is called the Dresden Massacre, which obviously a

493
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,079
more famous Dresden massacer happened later, but this one had

494
00:23:49,079 --> 00:23:50,039
the title for a while.

495
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 2: I mean, one of the odds I know, right, they

496
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,279
gotta work on the SEO. Yeah, if we're on the

497
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,920
United States military and government right now. I'm doing my

498
00:24:01,039 --> 00:24:04,440
darndest foxtass. Yeah. First thing that pops up when you

499
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,039
Google search Dresden, Massa.

500
00:24:06,279 --> 00:24:10,599
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, see some little CIA chud intern needs to

501
00:24:10,599 --> 00:24:14,359
get on that immediately. So this was one of the

502
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,039
largest recorded fox tossing events and it was hosted by

503
00:24:18,039 --> 00:24:24,039
Augustus the Strong Augustus the Second as well as in

504
00:24:24,079 --> 00:24:27,119
the courtyard of the Dresden Castle. So over the course

505
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,119
of the event, it was estimated up to six hundred

506
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,920
and eighty seven foxes, five hundred and thirty three rabbits,

507
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:39,359
thirty four badgers, and twenty one wildcats were hurled toward

508
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:44,359
the sky and ripped apart by dogs if they even

509
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:45,519
needed to be ripped apart.

510
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,079
Speaker 2: So it's like a little frisbee thrown catch.

511
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, So they would throw it up and the dogs

512
00:24:50,559 --> 00:24:51,319
try to catch.

513
00:24:51,079 --> 00:24:52,599
Speaker 2: It before it hits the ground.

514
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:53,799
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, more or less.

515
00:24:53,799 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 2: Do you get bonus points for that?

516
00:24:55,480 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. If you get it into a dog's mouth, yeah, no, Okay,

517
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,960
one wonders, Well, one would think I would have hoped

518
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,000
you done the research.

519
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 2: It didn't didn't. There's no bonus.

520
00:25:07,799 --> 00:25:09,799
Speaker 1: The only point system I was given was height.

521
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 2: I mean, right now, we have all these advanced metrics,

522
00:25:12,559 --> 00:25:13,720
right there were eye test guys.

523
00:25:13,799 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. A boy, how I'd loved to moneyball a

524
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:17,880
fox toss.

525
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 2: It'd be easy, dude. Going back in time would be

526
00:25:21,279 --> 00:25:25,799
just such a simple pleasure for us. We would crush,

527
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,079
we'd take over. Yeah, we'd run a gambling ring, would

528
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,559
we for all these games? Oh?

529
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, for this certainly. Although it's like I don't remember

530
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,119
what happened in like a Cincinnati Reds game in nineteen

531
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,640
ninety three. I could tell you every World Series winner

532
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:41,720
from eighty five to present.

533
00:25:42,039 --> 00:25:42,599
Speaker 2: I don't care.

534
00:25:43,079 --> 00:25:44,599
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, so if we go back to eighty five,

535
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,799
I can we can place futures on every World Series winner.

536
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then you're just doing something back to the

537
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,319
future bs. Yeah, I know. I'm not even saying that.

538
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,400
I'm saying we can go back in time and probably

539
00:25:54,519 --> 00:25:58,880
use our minds to run a book. Yeah, okay, just

540
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,759
we don't even know to know what happened. Yeah, but

541
00:26:01,839 --> 00:26:04,200
we could figure it out and probably best these guys.

542
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,839
Speaker 1: We just figure out like the on base percentage or whatever,

543
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:07,720
you know, that type of thing.

544
00:26:07,799 --> 00:26:09,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, the advanced metrics of fox sauce.

545
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

546
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, like, yeah, this guy isn't the biggest. You probably

547
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,319
think the bigger guy is gonna throw it higher. You'd

548
00:26:16,319 --> 00:26:16,759
be wrong.

549
00:26:17,279 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, look at him. He's fat, but he's got skinny arms.

550
00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:23,839
Speaker 2: You want a guy that could slingshot easy.

551
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, you want Honestly, they're probably devaluing leg strength. Like

552
00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:28,839
probably only looking.

553
00:26:28,599 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 2: At arms, but you also want to wirey tall man. Yes, length,

554
00:26:33,079 --> 00:26:36,640
you want some length on them. I agree ing span

555
00:26:36,759 --> 00:26:40,079
is gonna be a real factor. Yes, oh, one hundred percent.

556
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:41,880
And I don't think they take that into account. No.

557
00:26:42,519 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 1: You also, I think probably want the two tossers to

558
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,440
be relatively proportional.

559
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,279
Speaker 2: You want them to work in unison, be on the

560
00:26:49,279 --> 00:26:53,400
same page. Yeah, also got to figure out, like, I

561
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,960
don't know what's their relationship. Is he banging the other

562
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:57,599
guy's wife?

563
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, we gotta hope they're both good clubhouse guys.

564
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 2: The chemistry inside the locker room's good.

565
00:27:03,279 --> 00:27:08,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. So Augustus himself joined in, and to

566
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,359
show off that he was Augustus the Strong, he reportedly

567
00:27:13,599 --> 00:27:17,240
gripped his end of the sling with just a finger

568
00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:17,839
and a thumb.

569
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:22,519
Speaker 2: Flip of the wrist flung it up, but.

570
00:27:22,519 --> 00:27:26,839
Speaker 1: He did have two people on the other side kind

571
00:27:26,839 --> 00:27:28,079
of doing the work for him.

572
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 2: Okay, so little glory Hound exactly. As a finale, who's

573
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:37,359
gonna speak against him? Though? No one, No, They're like, oh,

574
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,359
good job, you're the best. Although actually no, Augusta is

575
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,119
the second. The reason he was kind of going after

576
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,640
Sweden and that that piece of land the Great Northern

577
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,240
War was set off with was because he was trying

578
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:55,559
to get the the back end and the support of

579
00:27:55,599 --> 00:27:57,839
his people, because they didn't really see him as a

580
00:27:57,839 --> 00:27:59,960
great leader. Here's too busy fox tossing.

581
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, too too much wine, too much, too much pleasures,

582
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:06,920
not enough.

583
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,319
Speaker 2: Pull in Lithuania to the name's too long, that's just

584
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,440
too long, a nightmare. Just just call it Poland.

585
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 1: It's a horrible name. Yeah, you gotta just shorty to Poland.

586
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:16,920
I don't care if Lithuania is part of it or not.

587
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:23,240
It's got to just be Poland. So as a finale,

588
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:28,920
a grand finale, thirty four young bores were released into

589
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:33,200
the enclosure, and the bores obviously immediately went insane.

590
00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 2: Well, they're impacts. Yeah, it's easy to get bores. You

591
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,720
go to West Texas out here, you can come across

592
00:28:38,759 --> 00:28:41,759
thirty to fifty in packs and you just train age.

593
00:28:42,319 --> 00:28:45,759
That's my favorite, I think internet moment in the last

594
00:28:45,759 --> 00:28:46,279
ten years.

595
00:28:46,359 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: What am I supposed to do when thirty bores run

596
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:49,160
through my property?

597
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:50,519
Speaker 2: Yeah? Because but people were like, what do you need

598
00:28:50,559 --> 00:28:53,759
a you know, automatic weapon for? It's like, well, or

599
00:28:53,759 --> 00:28:57,759
a semi automatic weapon. It's like, you ever come across

600
00:28:57,759 --> 00:29:01,400
a bore a whole pack boards like thirty to fifty

601
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:02,160
I don't even know if.

602
00:29:02,039 --> 00:29:05,279
Speaker 1: It's called a pack, but it doesn't matter, doesn't Yeah,

603
00:29:05,279 --> 00:29:06,279
you get the idea.

604
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,519
Speaker 2: It's like, how am I supposed to gun these down?

605
00:29:08,599 --> 00:29:08,839
Speaker 1: Yeah?

606
00:29:09,039 --> 00:29:11,319
Speaker 2: We're supposed to go out there with a sword, just

607
00:29:11,359 --> 00:29:13,839
start chopping the bow and arrow. That would be sick.

608
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,880
That would be pretty down there. With a katana blade

609
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,519
just taking heads off. They'd get you though, eventually. Yeah,

610
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,640
you're gonna your stamina. Everyone overestimates their stamina in a fight.

611
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,000
Imagine you're gonna be gased within fifteen seconds cutting these

612
00:29:27,079 --> 00:29:27,920
these boys heads off.

613
00:29:28,119 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: Dude, go go watch an blade. Go watch any tennis

614
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,240
match and look how gassed the professionals are after a

615
00:29:35,279 --> 00:29:36,279
twenty point rally.

616
00:29:37,079 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then your life's in danger. Yeah, yeah, you're

617
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,119
in the midst of all this.

618
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and obviously any idiot's gonna go in there, and

619
00:29:45,319 --> 00:29:47,039
like overswing boors.

620
00:29:47,079 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 2: Also, they kind of climb on each other like it's

621
00:29:49,079 --> 00:29:49,720
World War Z.

622
00:29:50,039 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're crafty.

623
00:29:51,759 --> 00:29:55,119
Speaker 2: That's why you have to get in the helicopter gun.

624
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 1: You gotta do it from yeah, from do it from it.

625
00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,160
They're not gonna Yeah. So the boars ran through, and

626
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,799
I guess there were a bunch so women partok in

627
00:30:02,839 --> 00:30:04,079
this too, and I guess there were a bunch of

628
00:30:04,079 --> 00:30:07,240
women in hoot noble women in hoopskirts in the enclosure,

629
00:30:07,839 --> 00:30:10,359
and the boars just went in there and start fucking

630
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,119
shit up. They were goring their legs up ending the

631
00:30:13,119 --> 00:30:17,160
scoop hurts, they were shrieking and like, oh my god,

632
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,680
what the fuck's going on? The crowd is dying laughing

633
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,480
at the whole thing, and then to take care of

634
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:23,920
the boars.

635
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,559
Speaker 2: Listen, people being injured when they're not supposed to. It

636
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,799
is always it's a timeless gag, never not funny. That's

637
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,079
America's Funniest home Videos had a twenty year run there

638
00:30:35,119 --> 00:30:36,640
where it's just people getting hurt.

639
00:30:36,839 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: Like bad, fairly badly, not like, you know, horrific, but yeah,

640
00:30:41,559 --> 00:30:43,119
some pretty solid.

641
00:30:44,279 --> 00:30:44,799
Speaker 2: Injuries.

642
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: So to take care of the boars, and this was planned,

643
00:30:49,759 --> 00:30:52,799
they then released three wolves into the enclosure.

644
00:30:54,119 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you want to take care of the boors,

645
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,559
you release some wolves. Sorts itself out.

646
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then of course at the end, all the

647
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,640
animals that were there and still alive were club to death.

648
00:31:06,079 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 2: Okay, including the wolves. Oh yeah, the wolf they did

649
00:31:09,759 --> 00:31:11,839
they clean out the problem for you, and then that's

650
00:31:11,839 --> 00:31:13,599
how they're there's still a problem.

651
00:31:13,599 --> 00:31:14,799
Speaker 1: So you gotta then handle that.

652
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 2: It's essentially just the opening scene of the Dark Night.

653
00:31:17,519 --> 00:31:20,400
You got to just take out every single guy.

654
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, until you're the yeah to your last love. So

655
00:31:24,319 --> 00:31:27,480
the next one is Leopold the first Vienna Bloodbath in

656
00:31:27,519 --> 00:31:32,279
March of sixteen seventy two. This event was held in

657
00:31:32,359 --> 00:31:38,519
his like opulent gardens in Vienna's hop uh Hofburg Palace,

658
00:31:38,559 --> 00:31:43,799
I should say the palace, yeah, the Hofburg Palace. And

659
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,640
it was a contest among fifty pairs of nobles.

660
00:31:48,839 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, so a fifty person competition, so many animals.

661
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: It's a fuck ton of animals.

662
00:31:56,079 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 2: So Leopold the first was usually pretty like because these

663
00:31:59,039 --> 00:32:01,440
are teams of what like three to four teams of two.

664
00:32:01,559 --> 00:32:04,079
I think usually Augustus.

665
00:32:04,359 --> 00:32:10,039
Speaker 1: You're right, yeah, one guy on each side. So Leopold

666
00:32:10,079 --> 00:32:12,279
was actually a pretty pious guy by all accounts, like

667
00:32:12,319 --> 00:32:14,759
pretty not conservative, but we were reserved, to be a

668
00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:17,759
way to put it. But for whatever reason, is.

669
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:22,759
Speaker 2: That what pious means? What I've never used, pious.

670
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: Means more like religious or whatever. But I don't know

671
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,039
if you. I mean, obviously they are I know.

672
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 2: Pope pious. They were all religious.

673
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: But I think he was both pious and like a reserved.

674
00:32:30,519 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 2: I think I never used the word pious in my

675
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:38,880
life because I just have such childhood trauma from Cyo basketball. Uh,

676
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,240
Pope pious. The school around us would always just the

677
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,160
ever living shit out of us in basketball, in basketball.

678
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we don't think we had a pious in

679
00:32:48,839 --> 00:32:52,240
Saint Louis. I'm trying to think the school that really

680
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:52,759
gave us the.

681
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,319
Speaker 2: Most shit pious was like a richer school. Yeah. I

682
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:56,240
didn't care for him.

683
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,359
Speaker 1: Why because they were better than you in every way?

684
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:04,480
Yeah you thought, baby, the poor blue collar school will

685
00:33:04,519 --> 00:33:05,599
scrap their way to a win.

686
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,519
Speaker 2: Show these It's like you guys are a representation of Delco,

687
00:33:09,519 --> 00:33:12,839
Like get out of here, go to fucking Montgomery County

688
00:33:12,839 --> 00:33:13,440
where you belong.

689
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is bullshit, So piet or Leopold I should

690
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:24,599
say sorry. Normally, like a reserved guy, was like, I

691
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,400
want to get in on this. He wasn't going to,

692
00:33:27,759 --> 00:33:29,359
but halfway through was like, I'm gonna I want to

693
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:30,839
get I want to do this shit.

694
00:33:31,759 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 2: So he again, if it's gonna happen, he.

695
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,079
Speaker 1: Goes in, but not to fox toss the fox tossing hand.

696
00:33:37,119 --> 00:33:37,279
End it.

697
00:33:37,319 --> 00:33:40,039
Speaker 2: If we're in the Dominican Republic or Haiti or whatever

698
00:33:40,319 --> 00:33:43,640
and there's a cockfight going on, yeah, I'm gonna look.

699
00:33:43,559 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: I'm going to a cockfight.

700
00:33:44,519 --> 00:33:46,799
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go. I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna bet,

701
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,640
and you know what, I'm even gonna have my own chicken. Yeah, Like,

702
00:33:50,759 --> 00:33:54,200
I'm not gonna organize a cockfight. I'll throw some razor

703
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:54,839
blades on his.

704
00:33:55,519 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: I think they do that anyway. I think they do

705
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:57,680
that anyway.

706
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 2: I'm gonna add some extress, okay, just in case he's

707
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,240
just actually in a suit of razor blades, just a

708
00:34:03,279 --> 00:34:04,559
shining metal.

709
00:34:05,079 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 1: Suit of pure race.

710
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,199
Speaker 2: I'm gonna put some candy bars on his feet, full

711
00:34:08,199 --> 00:34:12,199
of razor blades. Yeah, you can use my kid's halloween candy.

712
00:34:12,199 --> 00:34:13,760
I'm sure there's plenty in there. Yeah, there we go.

713
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 1: So Leopold is like, I want to get in on this,

714
00:34:20,559 --> 00:34:23,760
but ah man, we're out of shit to toss. It's okay,

715
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:25,639
I'll just do the bludgeoning.

716
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 2: They have good clubs, go, yeah, fishing clubs. Yeah. Leopold

717
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,079
goes into the ring. I want the clubbers to be

718
00:34:33,079 --> 00:34:36,760
good at their jobs, like, don't torture these animals. I

719
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,800
just want one swing. Well, I have horrible news for you.

720
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:40,719
This guy stunk.

721
00:34:41,599 --> 00:34:44,639
Speaker 1: He was probably okay, but all the other clubbers were.

722
00:34:46,199 --> 00:34:49,760
Speaker 2: The court dwarves. I'm sure that was a sight to behold. Yeah,

723
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,920
no entertainment value off the charts.

724
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:56,320
Speaker 1: It was Leopold and a gaggle of dwarves beating injured

725
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:57,480
animals to death.

726
00:34:57,599 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 2: It would be a funny show. Horrific horrific thing. I mean, objectively,

727
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:07,400
we can all acknowledge now this is barbaric, But if

728
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,280
it already happened, what was a dwarf doing it? Pretty funny?

729
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:12,039
It was pretty funny.

730
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,519
Speaker 1: There was also some young pages, like twelve year old

731
00:35:15,559 --> 00:35:19,880
boys also helping out as well, so he went in there,

732
00:35:20,039 --> 00:35:21,880
and they all went in there and just beat the

733
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,599
shit out of foxes, wildcats, any animal that was too

734
00:35:25,679 --> 00:35:28,760
maimed to run away from them. Sure, so dead back legs,

735
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:37,519
just crawling on. One dwarf slipped on some animals and

736
00:35:37,599 --> 00:35:43,679
testines and fell on top of a wounded wolf, which

737
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,719
ripped all the meat off of his arm.

738
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:52,119
Speaker 2: Wounded wolf. It just sounds like a really bad bar

739
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,639
on Sixth Street that goes out of business within three months.

740
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,599
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, opens and closes within a quarter.

741
00:35:59,119 --> 00:36:04,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. They have like scantly dressed women dancing in the windows.

00:36:04,639 --> 00:36:08,760
You have four dudes outside shots essentially bullying you.

Speaker 1: So the yeah, the wolf bit down to the bone,

764
00:36:58,039 --> 00:37:03,239
just ripped all the meat off this dwarf's arm, and

765
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:07,440
the Emperor, though, saved him. He came over and split

766
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,519
the wolf's skull in half with his club.

767
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:10,199
Speaker 2: Emperor's new groove.

768
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:16,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was referred to as people there because it

769
00:37:16,159 --> 00:37:18,239
was so bloody, as a quote carnival of death.

770
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,039
Speaker 2: And do you want know why they threw this fox

771
00:37:21,079 --> 00:37:25,920
toss celebrating the birth of.

772
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: The air. No, they were celebrating, yes, the end of

773
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:32,960
a plague.

774
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, nothing really gets me all jazzed up.

775
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:47,719
Defeating the invisible enemy like slaughtering hundreds, if not thousands

776
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:48,079
of him.

777
00:37:48,079 --> 00:37:49,519
Speaker 1: Should have done this at the end of Covid Man,

778
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:50,199
we should.

779
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:51,559
Speaker 2: Yeah.

780
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 1: Next up, we have the Prussian welcome in seventeen twenty eight. Okay,

781
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:04,239
King Frederick William the First of Prussia comes to who else,

782
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,760
Augustus the Strong. He's gonna be. He's being hosted by

783
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:13,360
Augustus the Strong in the Holy Roman Empire or whatever. Yeah,

784
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,960
and Augustus is like, gotta throw a fox toss, Got

785
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,199
to god throw fox toss. So they had two hundred

786
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:24,199
foxes there, among other animals, So many foxes, and William

787
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,119
was known as the Soldier King. So Augustus does strong,

788
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,719
this is just a fox genocide. Yeah, oh yeah, one

789
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:34,239
hundred percent. Augustus the Strong wanted to impress him, show

790
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,119
how manly he was. Again, the fox would be launched, high,

791
00:38:38,199 --> 00:38:43,880
hounds would come in rip him to pieces. The event

792
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:50,719
kind of evolved evolved into pandemonium when this woman and

793
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,079
the guy she was tossing with they couldn't get a

794
00:38:53,119 --> 00:38:55,480
badger off of their off of their thing.

795
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 2: And we're tossing badgers now, yeah.

796
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,679
Speaker 1: They tossed badgers too, and the badger like crawled up

797
00:39:02,679 --> 00:39:05,760
the cloth and h slashed the noble woman's face.

798
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 2: So she had a nice little scar the rest of

799
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,639
her life. Oh yeah, she get infected and.

800
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 1: She had to get stitches.

801
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 2: Dude, stitches back then were not fun.

802
00:39:13,559 --> 00:39:18,639
Speaker 1: No, so her scar was gnarly. Meanwhile, they were tossing

803
00:39:18,679 --> 00:39:19,239
some rabbits.

804
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 2: Your fucking medicine man comes in just the biggest needle

805
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,880
you've ever seen, and some thread.

806
00:39:27,119 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 1: They were a literal thread. Yeah, so we actually we

807
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,599
talked about this in the episode I did when Gabby

808
00:39:33,679 --> 00:39:36,719
was here on that surgeon who and the slave who

809
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,960
like saved countless pregnant women's lives.

810
00:39:40,079 --> 00:39:43,760
Speaker 2: Probably not gonna, you know, feel better, because you're gonna

811
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:44,960
get infected. Yeah.

812
00:39:45,039 --> 00:39:46,760
Speaker 1: So the thread they would use it was just normal

813
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,480
thread and it would get infected. That the guy, I

814
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:49,679
forget his name, but the doctor.

815
00:39:50,039 --> 00:39:52,599
Speaker 2: I'm not even lighting the fucking needle on fire.

816
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 1: No, they just pulled out of the mud and some

817
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:56,000
guy pulls it out of his boot.

818
00:39:56,039 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 2: It's a boot nail. It was just chilling.

819
00:39:59,519 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he used silver thread and that stopped infection

820
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,480
from happening. But back then they were just using regular

821
00:40:05,519 --> 00:40:10,199
littleld fucking cloth or whatever, so they would all They

822
00:40:10,199 --> 00:40:11,960
were also tossing rabbits at this event, and this is

823
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,159
not the only event they tossed rabbits at. But I

824
00:40:15,159 --> 00:40:18,320
guess the thing you don't realize about rabbits, or you

825
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,800
might not have thought of about rabbits, is they're smaller, right,

826
00:40:22,039 --> 00:40:27,119
much smaller, and thus can be tossed much higher.

827
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 2: Actually, I'm fine with rabbits being tossed. There's so many rabbits. Yeah,

828
00:40:33,119 --> 00:40:36,280
they're pumping out baby, right, they fuck like rabbits, and

829
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,639
rabbits are nasty and mean. No they're not.

830
00:40:38,679 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 1: They're sweethearts.

831
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 2: No they're not.

832
00:40:40,559 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: You ever, I had a pet rabbit.

833
00:40:42,679 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 2: You seem like the kind of kid that would have

834
00:40:44,519 --> 00:40:47,199
a pet rabbit, and I bet he bit the hell

835
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:47,920
out of your finger.

836
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,159
Speaker 1: Nope, his sweetheart, No, his name was Pitt.

837
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 2: There's no such thing as a caged rabbit that is

838
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:52,960
a sweetheart.

839
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: He was a sweet little guy.

840
00:40:54,199 --> 00:40:59,039
Speaker 2: Little psychos wading their bloodthirsty they're always always trying to

841
00:40:59,039 --> 00:40:59,960
take out all their kids.

842
00:41:00,079 --> 00:41:02,280
Speaker 1: My sweet Pip, my sweet little pip.

843
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,079
Speaker 2: How many of his your friends did he bite?

844
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:04,559
Speaker 1: None?

845
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:06,760
Speaker 2: There's no way, my sweet pip.

846
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,119
Speaker 1: I also had him when I was like twenty three.

847
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,119
Speaker 2: It's way too old to have a rabbit. So what

848
00:41:14,199 --> 00:41:18,079
happened was, Oh, there's no way you can justify this.

849
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:19,280
I bought it.

850
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,079
Speaker 1: My girlfriend wanted a dog. She couldn't get a dog,

851
00:41:22,119 --> 00:41:23,679
but she wanted animal, so I got her rabbit.

852
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 2: I mean, she couldn't get it out the apartment that

853
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,239
she lived in allowed rabbits.

854
00:41:28,559 --> 00:41:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess it's terrible. So I got her rabbit.

855
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,000
She liked it, but then she went home for the summer.

856
00:41:35,599 --> 00:41:36,880
She loved it. But and her dad was like, you're

857
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:37,960
keeping a fucking rabbit here.

858
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 2: So I nobody should have a rabbit in cage. I

859
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:41,880
had to take the rabbit home, and I kept the

860
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:42,960
rabbit until. Uh.

861
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:45,639
Speaker 1: Basically I was about to move to Austin, and I

862
00:41:45,639 --> 00:41:47,000
gave it to a preschool.

863
00:41:47,559 --> 00:41:50,199
Speaker 2: At least gerbils and stuff. They can distract themselves with

864
00:41:50,199 --> 00:41:50,880
the little wheel.

865
00:41:52,159 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: The hell's a rabbit, dew, I don't know. He just

866
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:55,679
has fun, man, it's a rabbit. Did he let him

867
00:41:55,679 --> 00:41:57,360
out a lot in the room in my room?

868
00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:59,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, he just pooped all over.

869
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:02,280
Speaker 1: He'd pee you sometimes. Okay, wouldn't that big of a deal.

870
00:42:03,159 --> 00:42:05,280
Whatever you say, brother, I like love the pip.

871
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,679
Speaker 2: Uh so he buy you? You mean you give him

872
00:42:09,679 --> 00:42:13,880
away to a preschool or whatever? You just let him

873
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:15,400
out into the wild.

874
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: And no, my my my parents' neighbors were they had

875
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,320
like a preschooler and he took you.

876
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 2: You went to an open field, you set him free

877
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,280
and then a down and took him. Yeah.

878
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 1: No, no, I promise. So hares rabbits whatever, they can

879
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:36,679
go much higher, which means they fall much further. Yeah,

880
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,000
typically at a fox toss. But again I'm like, I

881
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,320
have no I don't care. I don't care if a

882
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,559
rabbit gets mangled, well, typically at a fox toss. Ye.

883
00:42:42,679 --> 00:42:45,519
Speaker 2: Also, it's so small, you're gonna launch it up so high,

884
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,039
it's gonna fall. It's probably gonna die on impact. Oh,

885
00:42:49,039 --> 00:42:53,199
it doesn't die on impact. They exploded on impact. That's

886
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:53,840
sweet though.

887
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 1: Like when the rabbit would get tossed, when it came

888
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,960
back down, it would just open up.

889
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 2: Like folds for the dogs. Dogs just kind of have

890
00:43:03,039 --> 00:43:04,000
a nice little snack.

891
00:43:04,079 --> 00:43:07,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, like the rat. They were literally just exploding rabbits everywhere.

892
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,760
In fact, one rabbit exploded and splattered all over King

893
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:17,639
Frederick's uniform, but he laughed it off and then challenged

894
00:43:17,679 --> 00:43:21,599
Augustus to a toss off that left three more rabbits exploded.

895
00:43:23,079 --> 00:43:27,559
Speaker 2: Like na died. I can explode the rabbit harder. Yeah,

896
00:43:28,119 --> 00:43:29,119
rabbits are bunnies.

897
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,679
Speaker 1: They brought in a wolf also to show off.

898
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:33,360
Speaker 2: Is there a line they're like nighted, we can we

899
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,719
can only do it when they're of age. What the rabbits.

900
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,559
Speaker 1: I think they're of age, like four weeks. No bunnies, yeah,

901
00:43:40,679 --> 00:43:41,199
no bunnies.

902
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 2: Yeah.

903
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,119
Speaker 1: But they brought in a wolf because they, you know,

904
00:43:46,159 --> 00:43:49,360
Augustus wanted to show off and he was gonna toss

905
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,280
the fucking wolf or whatever.

906
00:43:51,119 --> 00:43:55,320
Speaker 2: You're you're gonna get fucked up. They drug these wolves, Nope,

907
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,920
with what anything?

908
00:43:58,159 --> 00:43:59,119
Speaker 1: No, they didn't drug it.

909
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,800
Speaker 2: There was drugs back then, all right, well they didn't

910
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:02,239
drug it.

911
00:44:02,199 --> 00:44:07,280
Speaker 1: It's from what I read. The wolf broke free early,

912
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,960
got into the ring and killed two dogs.

913
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 2: Damn.

914
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:18,599
Speaker 1: It was eventually tossed though, and it landed and was crippled,

915
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,960
but it was still pretty pissed off and it took

916
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,159
six guys with clubs to put it down.

917
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:28,079
Speaker 2: Okay, I just can't see a wolf get into that

918
00:44:28,119 --> 00:44:30,280
sheet to be tossed. I don't know how it works.

919
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 1: The thing's just running around everywhere and you just have

920
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,400
to time it up. And that's the skill and the

921
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:36,639
toss timing.

922
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:38,599
Speaker 2: It's because it runs towards you. It's going to attack you,

923
00:44:38,639 --> 00:44:40,760
and you're just you're like a matador.

924
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, in a lot of ways. Yeah, the Prussian

925
00:44:46,079 --> 00:44:50,000
King left impressed, but was like that was pretty cool,

926
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,039
but I'm glad we don't do that here. That was

927
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,679
also pretty fucked though, went in realm.

928
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,559
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.

929
00:44:58,679 --> 00:45:02,280
Speaker 1: At the Hanover Mask in seventeen oh six, they of

930
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,079
course had for the masquerade had a fox tossing pregame

931
00:45:06,159 --> 00:45:09,280
Electros Sophia of Hanover, who was the mother of Britain's

932
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:14,239
King George the First, hosted a costume party fox toss

933
00:45:15,039 --> 00:45:18,519
There were one hundred guests. The men were dressed as

934
00:45:18,559 --> 00:45:22,519
sadders and the women as nymphs, and the animals were

935
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,840
adorned in collar, ribbons and stuff like that.

936
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,360
Speaker 2: What is a nymph just like a fairy?

937
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:30,159
Speaker 1: Yeah?

938
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, more or less. Why is it called a nympho?

939
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,119
I don't know. Little fairies freaks.

940
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,519
Speaker 1: Probably they interesting it down. Have you ever seen tinker

941
00:45:39,559 --> 00:45:40,920
Bell dresses like a whore?

942
00:45:41,039 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, just kind of asking for it. It's dressed like that.

943
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,119
It is actually troubling. There's a kid's tinker Bell.

944
00:45:49,679 --> 00:45:52,559
Speaker 1: Show or moot like series of movies, and that tinker

945
00:45:52,559 --> 00:45:54,480
Bell is an absolute ten.

946
00:45:54,800 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 2: But she's like this big do matter smaller than a penis?

947
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,559
Make it work? She's magic, Yeah, make it work. It

948
00:46:05,599 --> 00:46:07,199
also makes you feel much bigger.

949
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:11,599
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you lay it out.

950
00:46:12,199 --> 00:46:13,599
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, you want bigger than you?

951
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you want? Girl?

952
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:17,400
Speaker 2: But she's magic, she can take it. Okay.

953
00:46:19,679 --> 00:46:24,039
Speaker 1: So this was a nighttime fox tosses under lantern light.

954
00:46:25,519 --> 00:46:30,000
Sofia was sixty six but still still spry. She partnered

955
00:46:30,039 --> 00:46:30,320
with a.

956
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 2: Duke that grandma is just not getting out there. Okay,

957
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,199
we have to look out for this is not how

958
00:46:38,199 --> 00:46:46,119
she's going out. Well, she tried to launch a wildcat. God,

959
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:47,079
how did grandma go?

960
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,599
Speaker 1: She actually did? Okay, it did. It did like scratch

961
00:46:51,679 --> 00:46:54,599
up her dress and exposed her legs, which was quite

962
00:46:54,599 --> 00:46:55,719
scandalous for the time.

963
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,679
Speaker 2: So they were sentenced her to death because she showed angle.

964
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,239
Speaker 1: No, dude, she's the queen or whatever electros so she

965
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,400
can do what she wants. She was furious, but the

966
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,760
crowd was like laughing at her, which pissed her off.

967
00:47:07,079 --> 00:47:09,519
So she took a club and beat the wild cat

968
00:47:09,559 --> 00:47:10,440
to death herself.

969
00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 2: I had to yeah, oh she's a batie.

970
00:47:13,119 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, boss ass bitch mm hmm. Over three hundred foxes

971
00:47:18,039 --> 00:47:18,880
were killed.

972
00:47:18,679 --> 00:47:21,559
Speaker 2: At the She's like handed over, give me the club. Yeah,

973
00:47:21,599 --> 00:47:22,400
I'll do it myself.

974
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:27,039
Speaker 1: Now. The surviving animals, the ones who weren't I don't

975
00:47:27,039 --> 00:47:29,880
think they had hounds mauling. So they just took all

976
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:33,079
the crippled animals, put them on leashes and had.

977
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 2: A victory parade with the animals.

978
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: With the animals, and they would they they paraded them

979
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,559
on leashes all the way.

980
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, is it like a gladiator situation

981
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,559
where you can survive so many tosses that they eventually

982
00:47:45,559 --> 00:47:50,079
free you. That's not what happens. In a moment, they

983
00:47:50,159 --> 00:47:53,360
use them for the feast. No, they eat them.

984
00:47:53,679 --> 00:47:59,280
Speaker 1: No, No, they take the victory parade ends at the

985
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:04,400
garden found mountain where all the partakers drowned the animals.

986
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:07,679
Speaker 2: In the fountain. Okay, so we were so upset at

987
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,519
Michael Vick, but there was there was precedent here, a

988
00:48:10,559 --> 00:48:14,320
lot of precedent. Uh. And then the banquet began. Then

989
00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:17,679
everyone went and had dinner after drowning the animals.

990
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:23,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, the crippled animals just put a fucking arrow through

991
00:48:23,039 --> 00:48:26,360
its head. That's not good knife, No sporting, that got

992
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:26,920
a tossome.

993
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:32,639
Speaker 2: What's the sporting drowning them? Yeah? I don't know.

994
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,119
Speaker 1: Also, it's like your nice garden fountain and there's just

995
00:48:35,199 --> 00:48:37,360
now one hundred dead animals just floating.

996
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 2: Blood's starting to creep out.

997
00:48:39,599 --> 00:48:41,880
Speaker 1: And by the way, these animals are not in one piece.

998
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:47,039
They're already bleeding gotten testines like falling out.

999
00:48:47,639 --> 00:48:50,280
Speaker 2: You can't drink out of that fountain anymore. It wasn't water.

1000
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:51,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't like a drinking fountain. It was

1001
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:52,960
like a decorative fountain.

1002
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:54,360
Speaker 2: They definitely drank out.

1003
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:55,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's be honest.

1004
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:59,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, come on, it was hard to drink water as is.

1005
00:48:59,119 --> 00:49:01,159
Then you're not getting picky.

1006
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got running water there, like it's moving,

1007
00:49:03,519 --> 00:49:04,159
so it's cleaner.

1008
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:05,159
Speaker 2: It's probably cleaner.

1009
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:06,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1010
00:49:08,039 --> 00:49:11,360
Speaker 2: Now the last one is called.

1011
00:49:12,679 --> 00:49:16,559
Speaker 1: The Wolf's Revenge at Regensburg.

1012
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:20,039
Speaker 2: Not Regensburg. I wonder if I have any relation to this.

1013
00:49:20,199 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 1: It's r E. G. E ns Berg. There was an

1014
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:31,719
elector's summit for Bavaria and they were doing a you know,

1015
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:32,440
fox toss.

1016
00:49:32,639 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to.

1017
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 1: It's the sixteen nineties in this one, and a wolf

1018
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:45,480
is uh, you know, in the mix, and it gets tossed,

1019
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,599
but I don't think gets tossed very high. Obviously wolf's

1020
00:49:48,639 --> 00:49:51,639
are big, and it lands on top of the hounds,

1021
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,719
gets its way free, just like fucks up a couple

1022
00:49:55,760 --> 00:50:02,800
of dogs, gets out, goes straight at the motherfucker who

1023
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:09,760
tossed it. A minor Bavarian prince disembowels him.

1024
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, we finally got one, boys, we finally got

1025
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:14,239
a noble.

1026
00:50:14,119 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: And Sever's and artery. The dudes just spraying blood everywhere.

1027
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:19,519
Speaker 2: This is what ends it off.

1028
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:22,800
Speaker 1: They finally got Oh no, so this was not the

1029
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:23,320
last one.

1030
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:24,920
Speaker 2: Could they put the kabash on it? No?

1031
00:50:25,079 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 1: This was just no, because this happened in the sixteen nineties.

1032
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:29,480
The one before that was seventeen oh six, and the

1033
00:50:29,519 --> 00:50:32,119
one before that was seventeen twenty eight. Yeah, so it's

1034
00:50:32,159 --> 00:50:32,840
still going.

1035
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:34,800
Speaker 2: Anyway.

1036
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:39,880
Speaker 1: Severs and Artery surgeons run out, cauterized the uh the

1037
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:45,360
wound on site while he's screaming in horrific pain. Later, bitch, anyway,

1038
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:50,239
he bleeds out before dawn. The wolf is now cornered

1039
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:51,719
and they plan on clubbing.

1040
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:56,119
Speaker 2: It to death. Of course, takes four more motherfuckers with them.

1041
00:50:57,159 --> 00:51:01,719
What a fucking savage. That's my fucking king right there.

1042
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,039
At a certain point, you kill so many people, you'd

1043
00:51:04,079 --> 00:51:05,840
be like, all right, you earned your freedom.

1044
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:09,719
Speaker 1: Right you can go. I respect you. So it took

1045
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,800
about five Yeah, apparently, let's.

1046
00:51:12,599 --> 00:51:17,119
Speaker 2: Go dude, score one for the good guys.

1047
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 1: But yeah, he got him, and that is that is

1048
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,960
the story of Fox tossing again. By the late seventeen hundreds,

1049
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,400
it went out of fashion, but it was a big

1050
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,280
ass deal for about one hundred and fifty years.

1051
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:37,159
Speaker 2: Think it'll circle back. Yeah, you know, trends are cyclical,

1052
00:51:38,639 --> 00:51:43,320
it's like fashion. Yeah, exactly. Well, I know what I

1053
00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:47,400
learned today. What's that we were sick freaks until like

1054
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:52,199
thirty years ago. Yeah, pretty much, and even then we're

1055
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,199
still we're still not much better.

1056
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 1: But the things this is I always say this, like

1057
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:02,079
going back to that time when we did an episode

1058
00:52:02,079 --> 00:52:05,000
about how they was a blog out of a Patreon

1059
00:52:05,039 --> 00:52:08,440
patrion of Compsola softwaresery, where like there was a circus

1060
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,079
in town and they needed to punish an elephant for

1061
00:52:11,159 --> 00:52:13,400
like stomping on somebody, so they took it out to

1062
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,920
the woods and tied it to four trees with chains

1063
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:17,639
and then lit a fire under it to teach it

1064
00:52:17,639 --> 00:52:20,320
a lesson, and the whole town came out because there's

1065
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:22,480
nothing on TV because TV doesn't exist.

1066
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:28,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I also learned. I heard Jack, our

1067
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:33,320
friend Jack Mandeville say this on another show. Uh. Something

1068
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:36,039
I learned recently too, is I guess that the Salem

1069
00:52:36,119 --> 00:52:37,840
Witch Trials I also hung dogs.

1070
00:52:38,519 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: Oh that doesn't surprise me in the least.

1071
00:52:40,519 --> 00:52:42,599
Speaker 2: We didn't cover that in our Salem witch Trial episode.

1072
00:52:42,639 --> 00:52:45,440
Speaker 1: We probably didn't, But we have done animal hangings in

1073
00:52:45,519 --> 00:52:48,679
other witch Trial episodes. We have cats and shit like.

1074
00:52:48,639 --> 00:52:51,800
Speaker 2: The cats because the guy in England that claimed to

1075
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:56,960
be like the real air that got switchedipper, Yeah, and

1076
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:01,039
then he blamed his cat for witchcraft to possessing them.

1077
00:53:01,079 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: In fact, I did a whole episode at one point

1078
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:04,599
on Famous animal Trials.

1079
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,119
Speaker 2: We've just never really been good to animals.

1080
00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:12,679
Speaker 1: Uh no, no, we've been not the kindest.

1081
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 2: Been our best friends, yeah, or at least we haven't

1082
00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,440
kept our part of the best friends. Sound like the

1083
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:20,400
dogs had a great time at the fox toss. Yeah,

1084
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,880
well unless they caught one too, like they're supposed to

1085
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:27,360
clean up, and then what if this fucking mangled animal

1086
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,280
still you know, he's cornered, he's going to do anything

1087
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:31,920
to survive. He's going to get some of those dogs.

1088
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,360
Speaker 1: Well, there was another wolf situation where he did get

1089
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:35,119
a couple of dogs.

1090
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:37,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, you said, I think you mentioned that. Yeah, so.

1091
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:40,239
Speaker 1: It happened.

1092
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:47,119
Speaker 2: Who's uh, who's today's hitler, all of these people, the

1093
00:53:47,159 --> 00:53:48,800
person that came up with fox tossing.

1094
00:53:49,599 --> 00:53:53,199
Speaker 1: It's literally every single person involved with this.

1095
00:53:53,599 --> 00:54:00,320
Speaker 2: Yeah. Not a fun story personally. That the dwarfs club

1096
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:04,159
and stuff definitely added an element, And if you didn't

1097
00:54:04,199 --> 00:54:06,719
mention that, I'd be totally horrified. But now all I

1098
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:10,719
have is this picture of little people with tiny little

1099
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:16,360
clubs going after uh, raccoons and badgers.

1100
00:54:16,679 --> 00:54:22,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, crippled, crippled badgers. And that one dwarf also did

1101
00:54:22,599 --> 00:54:25,239
get got by a wolf, had its fucking arm ripped

1102
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:26,000
off by a wolf.

1103
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,599
Speaker 2: Dude. Yeah, my hero of the story, that wolf that took.

1104
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:35,079
Speaker 1: Out any wolf, just any wolf. Yeah, involved basically. But yeah,

1105
00:54:35,079 --> 00:54:39,039
that's all I got for today on the Illustrious. But

1106
00:54:39,559 --> 00:54:41,760
some say two short history of fox.

1107
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:49,679
Speaker 2: Tossing Do you say that? No? Okay, no, probably the

1108
00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:54,800
spookiest episode we've done all month. Yeah, uh I hate this.

1109
00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 1: I mean, dude, by the end of this something such.

1110
00:54:57,039 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 2: A softy for animals except rabbits.

1111
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,679
Speaker 1: By the end of these things like it was just

1112
00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:04,400
I mean literally, there was mud and the mud was

1113
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:07,719
made from like blood and guts like. It was not

1114
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,840
like water like, it was just blood soaking the ground.

1115
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 2: That's fun. That's always a good time, Yeah, I guess. Yeah,

1116
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:23,960
definitely have your you know, festivals and giant parties covered

1117
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,360
in blood. Yeah, that's what people want.

1118
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:27,800
Speaker 1: And I mean these people, by the way, who were

1119
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:29,039
in the ring covered in blood.

1120
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:33,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, how else would they become before the banquet and

1121
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:36,519
probably pooh too oh shit blood. Surely there's plenty of

1122
00:55:36,559 --> 00:55:41,119
pooh for like matted disgusting. It's gonna smell so bad.

1123
00:55:41,159 --> 00:55:43,639
Speaker 1: Oh, it's gotta be horrible. Have you ever walked in.

1124
00:55:43,559 --> 00:55:45,199
Speaker 2: And they're not cooking any of these animals, They're not

1125
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,719
using them for anything the postgame feast?

1126
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,840
Speaker 1: Have you ever? I know you said you've been deer

1127
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,320
hunting before. I've only been deer hunting once ever. But

1128
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:57,480
at the end of it, I was with my cousin

1129
00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,519
because he has a ranch out here, and we had

1130
00:56:00,519 --> 00:56:02,400
to go We didn't kill any deer, but he had

1131
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:04,800
to go pick up a deer that he had had

1132
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:07,519
like made into meat at one of the processing places

1133
00:56:07,599 --> 00:56:10,000
or whatever, and so we had to go in to

1134
00:56:10,199 --> 00:56:10,719
pick it up.

1135
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,360
Speaker 2: You mean, just somebody who dressed his deer down.

1136
00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:15,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was like a business that did it,

1137
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:17,559
not like a butcher, but like they were there because

1138
00:56:17,599 --> 00:56:20,119
when we walked in, you could see the back room.

1139
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,960
Speaker 2: Tells me your was your cousin, Yeah, not a real hunter.

1140
00:56:24,199 --> 00:56:25,079
Gotta do it yourself.

1141
00:56:25,679 --> 00:56:27,599
Speaker 1: He says he can, but he didn't feel like it.

1142
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,320
Speaker 2: He's a lot of buddies, so I don't play there.

1143
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,159
It's a convenience thing. Yeah.

1144
00:56:32,199 --> 00:56:34,320
Speaker 1: But we walk in and I'm like pretty hungover because

1145
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:36,400
we got fucked up that night. And uh, it was

1146
00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:37,519
like me and my three of my cousins.

1147
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 2: It doesn't smell great.

1148
00:56:38,559 --> 00:56:42,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, Oh my god, Oh my god.

1149
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 2: The meat is so delicious. Benison's great.

1150
00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:44,719
Speaker 1: Oh Venison rules.

1151
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:48,960
Speaker 2: You can jerky out of it. Fucking stunk, dude.

1152
00:56:49,159 --> 00:56:51,639
Speaker 1: And there was just like trash cans full of deer pelts.

1153
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,119
There's deer skins, they're all yeah, they're all hung up

1154
00:56:55,199 --> 00:56:57,599
up from the ceiling and ship like that. It was

1155
00:56:57,639 --> 00:56:59,880
not what I needed to smell at nine in them.

1156
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 2: Mo, pretty hungover, probably vomited a little.

1157
00:57:03,519 --> 00:57:08,800
Speaker 1: I wasn't great. That was my favorite snapchat I ever posted, though,

1158
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:11,679
because I got like a hundred responses that were like,

1159
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:18,480
where the fuck are you heaven? But yeah, that's all

1160
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:19,960
I got for today. I'm fox tossing.

1161
00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:25,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, sweet, thanks for putting those images in my head. Yeah,

1164
00:57:28,119 --> 00:57:28,519
Speaker 1: They will.

00:57:29,559 --> 00:57:32,400
Speaker 2: This is an episode that is truly gonna shake me.

1166

That takes a lot, it does, dude, I'm telling you,

1167
00:57:36,559 --> 00:57:38,280
I like animals more than people.

1168
00:57:40,239 --> 00:57:43,039

1182

Speaker 2: That comes on the eleventh, Okay, and then also Death

1183
00:58:25,639 --> 00:58:28,000

1184
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 1: Oh, which, by the way, a perfectly cast.

1185
00:58:31,079 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 2: Gutou Yeah, I mean Tom from fucking Succession. Oh, it's

1186
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,079
so good it might be too good though, he's too charismatic.

1187
00:58:38,719 --> 00:58:40,000
That's kind of true. Yeah.

1188
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,599
Speaker 1: Tom is so far and away the best character in

1189
00:58:43,599 --> 00:58:45,880
Succession that it's not even remotely close.

1190
00:58:46,039 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 2: That's why he wins.

1191
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:49,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, like, I haven't even finished it, Butler alert, I

1192
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:53,800
do know he wins, but like the way he is

1193
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,119
so much better than like because I feel like people

1194
00:58:56,159 --> 00:58:58,880
love Kieran Colkin and blah blah blah. Now dude, Tom,

1195
00:58:59,119 --> 00:59:00,800

We did get a one star review that I posted

1201
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:16,960
the other day, but I felt like there were reasons

1202
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,480
in the one star review that could also be taken

1203
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:21,119
as a five star.

1204
00:59:21,199 --> 00:59:22,800
