You could pull the mask off the Lone Ranger, but you don't mess around with Jim. We got big Jim Banks here. What's going on, man?
Speaker 3:Not much man.
Speaker 2:And all the way from Toledo, ohio, we got the one, the only, the crazy game creator. The man that does so many different things like it baffles me. We got keith mackie. What's going on?

Speaker 3:Instead of promoting the 700 Club and that, let's just promote that, that podcast. Send everybody over there.
Speaker 2:What podcast 700 or FAK radio.
Speaker 3:That's the place. If they don't want to listen to us, they should go there.

Speaker 2:No, you don't say that you get all the traffic moved over there, winkity, didn't you hear me wink? Yeah, yeah, I heard. See, that's just naturally how my eye looks, so it looks normal to me.
Speaker 3:You were looking at the flashy lights on the side.
Speaker 2:Oh, what flashy lights, hey, so what have you guys been up to this week?
Speaker 4:Myself not being on social media. That's what I'm saying. All right, old school, yeah, yeah, but why? Oh, so it's some sensitive folks out there that just had to. Uh, I honestly I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 3:There's always with the internet. There's always someone to poop in the punch bowl.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I suppose. So, I suppose. So I mean, everybody's uh a little emotional at the time and I guess, and they want to lash out and uh, you know, it's the way she goes sometimes, I suppose. But you know, calm down eventually and they'll, I don't know, maybe wish they didn't, they didn't do that, but I doubt it, you know for those trolls on social media.
Speaker 2:It drives me crazy in what they believe in.
Speaker 5:And you're wrong.
Speaker 2:You're wrong if you don't believe in what they believe in. Just you know what. Our lives are too short to worry about what this person believes, or or who their God is, or you know who they voted for. Don't worry about that. Your life will be so much simpler if you just mind your own business.
Speaker 4:And you know, whatever side you happen to be on, the definition of fascism is making somebody believe something they don't want to believe by force. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 4:It's like so, if that's. You know, that's usually the thing that gets thrown out there if you don't want to agree with somebody, and it's like, oh well, you're a fascist, Like well, that's not. You know, you're kind of misusing the word there.
Speaker 2:You know, all year past is like well, that's not, you know you're you're kind of misusing the the word there, you know. I mean, yeah, it's. It's kind of like the quote from uh forrest gump, when you talk politics man and like his back more crooked than a politician, you know. So yeah, other than a jim small mart, small mart. How's that going, man, uh? Always a headache and always crazy have you had any craziness this week there?
Speaker 3:I went into work last week in the middle of the week and it was all like, uh, just a little cool outside, you know, the leaves were just blowing like crazy. And then when I got out of work it was like a snowstorm and stuff happening in that and I was like what the hell happened in here? I guess we got like two or three inches of snow all of a sudden out of the blue how'd you measure that?
Speaker 2:oh, I don't know what you're talking about hey, keith, got the snow too over there, so wow, it went all the way over there.
Speaker 3:Yeah, not as bad, we didn't get it gone now, yeah, it's all gone which, which is great uh and made you realize, oh crap, I didn't have the uh shovels ready, I didn't have the uh window scrapers or nothing set up for the wife, or the gloves and the hats. I'm like crap, I forgot.
Speaker 4:Unfortunately, I had the shovel ready, but that was because I've been dealing with a flooded basement for the past couple of weeks.
Speaker 2:I know I've been talking about the transmission on my Jeep. I finally got somebody to work on it and, dude, they came all the way to St John from Valparaiso, which is about 35 miles, to tow my vehicle for free. Wow, if anybody needs any kind of work done on their car like transmission, tires, whatever you need they got the state-of-the-art equipment and they're called Accurateissions and repairs. I'll have more info about them guys in the next coming episodes. Yeah, check them out. They're in Valparaiso, indiana. Really good guys, family owned. They do their best without cutting the corners and saving you money. What more can you want? Yeah, you know we try to fulfill everybody's request that listens to the show and they're like hey, I like this segment, I like that segment, can you do this, can you do more of that? And we actually get those people. The guy that didn't like FAKE radio in Pennsylvania, his name's Sean. I'm going to call him out.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, don't call out our three listeners and stuff, then we'll get down to two or one.
Speaker 2:His favorite segment is the facts. I mean, he legit loves these facts, no matter how crazy they are. He keeps asking for them. Who are we to say? No, it's our show, We'll do what we want. You know, it's everybody's show.
Speaker 3:Technically, Sometimes you got to give the people what they want.
Speaker 2:We're giving Sean in Pennsylvania. While he everybody's show, Technically, sometimes you got to give the people what they want. We're giving Sean in Pennsylvania why he's sitting on guard duty. We're going to give him some facts to listen to later on in the episode. We have that again. We have the big true or false segment and we're also going to talk about some. What would you do if you won the lottery? Guys, you think about that and then when we have a commercial and come back, we'll talk about it. But what else you guys been up to? You guys ready for the holiday Thanksgiving's coming up for those that live in the States?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean I have the holiday off, which is always nice. Didn't used to have it off back in the old days, but should be a little more relaxing. I don't have to have it at the house with the family, I get to have it at the cousin's house. So as long as that's always good too. But I think I have to do the new year's thing with the family, so I have to lucked out there don't let jimmy have the eggnog no, god don't.
Speaker 3:Thanks for reminding me. I'm gonna write that down. I mean, that was what. Two years in a row he got sick and uh, drank like a little fish and then all of a sudden got sick who does the cooking in your guys's house when you have holidays at your house, either?
Speaker 3:one, the wife, and, uh, my cousin in. She does the uh, the main cooking and stuff. We took the duties away from, uh, my mother, who did most of the cooking. She would just I made all this, all this, all this. And then this year she was like I don't want to make nothing, we're like fine, so we started making it.
Speaker 2:Right on. How about you, Keith?
Speaker 4:We usually do. We got the roaster that we'll end up throwing a turkey in, but some years, because we know we're not going to end up eating all the turkey. Like Heather will break it down Heather's my wife for people out there listening. Well, she can break the turkey down real quick and we'll take like just the breast and cut it up and make like chunks, like crunchy turkey chunks, you know what I mean and then have the rest of the Thanksgiving meal around it. I believe we're having the whole turkey this year, but we've done that before and that's worked out pretty well. And then over the year, like we'll pull out, you know like the big drumstick and the thigh and whatnot, and make like soup out of it or something like that. So that's actually the turkey lasts a little longer. Mom's just went and picked up four turkeys, so we're sitting pretty well on turkeys. But that was because they had I think it was at walmart, was it not?
Speaker 3:they had a sale on them oh, did I say the word I'm sorry, that's all right it's small, small mart I cry on the inside, that's okay thanks for reminding them, keith but that's cool, how the uh turkeys is one of the first foods I think of whenever people want to stretch it out different ways and for like a couple days after, like they do soups or stews or like sandwiches, and there's so many ways to break it down and do something different.
Speaker 2:It's real cool you know, for thanksgiving for our house, everybody chips in and makes something else, like I. I don't get. I have to work every Thanksgiving at night because I work midnights. I work it's Thursday for Friday so I have to work. So I'm off the day before Thanksgiving, which kind of sucks because everything happens on Thursday but everybody else chips in. There's just like six of us because Sean, lynn and Caroline come over and then me, jenny and Karen and we have two 20-pound turkeys but only four people eat the turkey. Wow, so lots of leftovers. I don't like leftovers personally, really. Yeah, I'm not a big fan on it.
Speaker 3:Oh, I eat leftover turkey sandwiches forever.
Speaker 2:And then we already got the stuffing. Karen already dried out like like six loaves of bread and so she already got it cubed up. So come thanksgiving she makes this like dried bread cubes and the like miraculous tasting good stuff. And then I make the turkeys, I make the gravy.
Speaker 3:No, no sexual pun there oh my god, you know what? Why do you got to go there?
Speaker 2:I don't know, I don't know, it's just one of them. Uh, one of them, days, man, so don't leave scott alone with the turkey.
Speaker 3:Keep an eye on this guy cooking it's got to get basted somehow his wife catches him.
Speaker 4:I didn't forget the gravy.
Speaker 3:He catches you coming in the kitchen, here comes the stuffing. Oh hey, honey, what are you doing here?
Speaker 2:hey, you can actually get a good enema with the turkey baster oh god but like what's your favorite meal or side dish or from thanksgiving that you guys have but we were saving it for the Thanksgiving episode. Well, the next. The next episode is going to be Friday, the day after Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, that's right. We could tell our horror stories, or something.
Speaker 4:Um side dishes, Hmm, oh, I love mashed potatoes and gravy. That's my favorite.
Speaker 2:Man, I love those.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:It'd have to be mashed potatoes and gravy, and then maybe, if someone made the deviled uh, deviled eggs oh I love those two. Take the whole tray, do you?
Speaker 3:put mustard in their uh, deviled eggs, or or is it just egg yolk and paprika and mayo? I think she puts mayo and there might be a little mustard. I think, I can't remember it's like god's gift.
Speaker 4:I've seen people put avocado in theirs Really. Yeah, I guess it makes it a little healthier.
Speaker 2:Is that?
Speaker 4:you Scott? No, that's over here Somebody wanting. Outside Sounds like somebody wants avocado.
Speaker 3:Yeah, somebody wants avocado.
Speaker 4:They want to join the show. Thanks, yummy, yummy.

The only one missing is gavin and dave, which hopefully we're going to have them all on the show with us soon and that the episode won't disappear. So I got facts, facts. Where's the facts? So the first fact I got is sharks existed before trees. They've been around for over 400 million years.
Speaker 3:That sounds right, because didn't most well, didn't most life come from, like the sea and stuff?
Speaker 2:if you believe in that, yeah, I don't believe in nothing, man. It's always up for change but you would think that, like oh trees you know bushes, trees, grass. No one said let there be sharks. Yeah, the greenland sharks that they've been finding have been over aged over 500 years and they're still living. That's craziness to me. And they live in like the deep waters off the coast of greenland, hence the name. They aged one at 525. Wow, imagine living that long.
Speaker 3:No, I can't.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't want to.
Speaker 3:Because everybody you love dies and stuff. And then you love another set of people and then they die. I mean, keep going. I've seen a lot of Twilight Zone and those episodes where people live forever and you're like, why, what's the point?
Speaker 2:Well, it's like the movie Highlander. You're like, why, what's the point? Well, it's like the movie. Highlander is at one or two when he falls in love and it she's the love of his life. She grows old, he stays the same. She dies, he buries her. You know that's rough man and and has a great queen. Uh, soundtrack of who wants to live forever going on as they're making love and he's still hitting it at 80 years old.
Speaker 4:We should do a whole episode on love-making soundtracks. You know what?
Speaker 2:If you go to Amazon Music, they do have sweet love music. They even have porno soundtracks.
Speaker 3:You could play a 70s porno track behind when we start talking about the movies.
Speaker 2:You know what? I'm writing that down. There's a segment that I want to do with you guys. Gym sounds or porn sounds, so with that music playing just to throw people off all right.
Speaker 3:What's the other facts here, sir?
Speaker 2:come on okay, okay, okay. So wombat poop is cube shape to prevent it from rolling away why?
Speaker 3:I mean why? Why would you care? Why would it keep? Why would you care it rolled away?
Speaker 2:I don't know, man making it sound like you made them. Why, why, why, scott, why'd you care? It rolled away.
Speaker 3:I don't know man Making it sound like you made them. Why, scott? Why'd you make it square?
Speaker 2:You could look it up.
Speaker 3:It's you know what, wait so does that mean their ass is like their? You know bung holes all square and stuff, and it comes out like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:Because I can't imagine like those blocks as a kid, with the circle and the square coming out and start.
Speaker 2:Put the square in, though uh, if you give me a second man, I'm pulling it up for you no, I don't even you know.
Speaker 3:Pull it up for me there.
Speaker 2:That didn't sound good it's definitely different, man, and they're perfectly square.
Speaker 3:Wait, someone video.
Speaker 2:It'd be like Lincoln Logs man. You could just put it together for like a little igloo.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm sure I'm going to build a brick wall. Listen, someone took a videotape and said watch this. And they just videotaped the wombat shitting.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so talk about bored, well, talk about.
Speaker 4:That's a job, somebody gets paid for that make six figures I'm over here crapping for free make.
Speaker 3:I can make letters and question marks and everything cobras uh, I can't even.
Speaker 2:I don't even remember how to like add pictures into the damn thing man and everything. Cobras, I can't even. I don't even remember how to like add pictures into the damn thing man.
Speaker 3:You'll have to Google that when you need to have like a Scottron behind, a Powerstron behind you instead of the Caesar lights. You have there, sonic.
Speaker 2:I usually have backgrounds and I think I found it right here.
Speaker 3:Maybe I'll hang my son's dry erase board here and I'll do like a little John Madden thing, like the old days, like here's the wombat's ass and here comes the square coming out. There it is. Oh my God, it is cubes.
Speaker 2:Were they the first bricklayers?
Speaker 3:No kidding.
Speaker 4:Wow.
Speaker 2:And look at him, man, he don't look too happy. Yeah, he looks all tired his crap looked like a car compressor man at the junkyard.
Speaker 4:It just I don't know man picture while he was doing it, while he was making it say oh wombat, what are you doing?
Speaker 3:he goes I'm shitting bricks over here. What do you think I'm doing?
Speaker 1:Literal bricks.
Speaker 2:All right, man. Moving on Fact, three Octopuses have three hearts. Two pump the blood to the gills and one pumps it to the body.
Speaker 3:Yes, but do all three love at the same time?
Speaker 2:Their hearts were three sizes sizes.
Speaker 3:They're the most loving animals in the universe and does one make the other two sad?
Speaker 2:yeah and can one be heartbroken and the other two filled with love?
Speaker 3:exactly right if the girl breaks up with him and goes. So what? I got two more hearts.
Speaker 4:I'll show you there's plenty more where you came from.
Speaker 2:What happens if he has one girl, has each of those hearts. So he has three girls he cares about, or three octopi that he cares about.
Speaker 3:Then the octopus goes hey, whatever man, more of me to love man, whatever whatever.
Speaker 4:Kind of like the mormons of the sea all right, so this one's a crazy one.
Speaker 2:Fact number three or four square poop isn't crazy.
Speaker 3:Okay, what's this one?
Speaker 2:no there's a species of jellyfish that can revert to its juvenile form, making it potentially immortal.
Speaker 3:I I seen this.
Speaker 2:That's crazy.
Speaker 3:My son watched a cartoon when he was younger, called Octonauts.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 3:And they had this. It was uh I think it was, it was called something like that the uh jellyfish, the immortal jellyfish or whatever, and whenever he got scared or something, he would like shrink back to his baby and he would be like that sounds like me after the Cialis day. Oh my God, Would you stop?
Speaker 2:Just kidding.
Speaker 3:No, but it was a pretty funny episode and I was like, oh my God, it is true.
Speaker 2:That is really weird. Imagine that. Imagine you being able to do that. You hit a certain age that you want to, you keep the knowledge and you convert back into juvenile.
Speaker 3:That would kind of be cool.
Speaker 2:You'd be like no, no, I'm doing this again and then you're back to, but you still own the house and you still have your bills but how?
Speaker 3:what's the rate of growth, though? Is it the same? You have to go through one whole calendar year to get a one year, or would you go like shorter to get back to the age you're at? Say, I'm at, like, a certain age, and then you have to get back to that age.
Speaker 3:You have to wait that many more years yeah, I don't know, probably, and you'd have to go through school again yeah, man, that would be crazy imagine doing school over you couldn't give that power to humans because, no matter what, they would find a way of abusing it yeah, plus, you'd have to really think you'd have to have someone who's going to raise you again, because if you're that young, I got to trust you. You're going to raise me so many years.
Speaker 2:But death rate would be down.
Speaker 3:I don't know.
Speaker 2:Like if your parents, if they converted. And then you'll be like, no, no, no, you can't convert you childish antics and grounding them and all that. You'll be like, no, no, you can't convert you. Childish uh antics and grounding them and all that. You'll be like, no, screw this and you convert. So now everybody's a damn kid that'd be.
Speaker 4:That'd be an interesting punishment, like I think, it's so easy you get to raise me now now it'd be like the smurfs everybody's all little man running around yeah, yeah, go back to your diapers oh man, you gotta change your mom and dad's diaper.
Speaker 2:Oh man, I do that anyway. No, oh, it's god. All right, man. This one's really mind-blowing to me, but a day on venus is longer than a year on venus. What a day on Venus. One day is longer than one year.
Speaker 3:Wow, that's trippy man, that's real, that's crazy.
Speaker 2:And it's because of the slow rotation.
Speaker 3:I was going to say the rotation, that's really weird.
Speaker 2:Why isn't the day a year?
Speaker 4:Yeah, just kind of like it takes. Saturn 29 and a half years to go around the sun.
Speaker 2:One time I'm gonna need a chart on that it says uh it says, venus has an incredibly slow rotation on its axis, taking approximately 243 earth days to complete one rotation. However, it only takes about 225 earth days for venus to orbit the. This means that a single day on Venus is longer than its year.
Speaker 3:Okay, okay, I see it now.
Speaker 2:That's crazy, still huh.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, it takes longer to spin than it does to go around. Yeah, oh my gosh.
Speaker 2:How about this? The inventor of the Pringles can is buried in one.
Speaker 3:What he had a coffin like, made exactly like a Pringle.
Speaker 2:No, no, his ashes were packed into the Pringles, can, oh okay?
Speaker 3:okay, I thought it was a big one. He just popped the top.
Speaker 4:That's kind of fitting really oh that'd be hilarious. I just keep thinking the Lebowski. You ever see that where they dump the ashes in his face.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, that's hilarious. Didn't they do that on Tommy Boy too? They? Went to throw his dad away in a sailboat. Yeah, okay, how about this one? Scotland has 421 words for snow, including sneezel and skelf. Sneezel and skelf.
Speaker 3:That sounds like they just made up different words and kept it going through the decades and stuff just to mess with people. Oh, now, this year it's called snoozel and sneezel.
Speaker 2:I know some, some a group of brothers man and sneeze on skeef or whatever.
Speaker 4:Real sneeze epidemic going on.
Speaker 2:So some turtles can breathe through their butts, a process called respiration.
Speaker 3:I know some women that can do that too.
Speaker 2:Man, dude, you got bad breath. I never learned that on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Speaker 3:I wonder if their butts get the hiccups and stuff. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Breathing through your butt again. Eh, breath smells like shit oh, poor turtles okay, man, how about this one? The heart of a blue whale is so big that a human could swim through its arteries oh, that's wild. That is wild because the heart is about the size of a bus. Yeah, wow, swim through its arteries. Oh, that's wild, that is wild.
Speaker 4:Because the heart is about the size of a bus. Yeah, wow.
Speaker 2:So you could swim through the arteries. Man, it's like honey. I shrunk the kids, good lord.
Speaker 4:Has anybody tempted it? I guess would be the question.
Speaker 2:Jonah, no, I got no man. When they find a dead one, do they like cut it open and like crawl through it like some agility course for dogs tunnel and that's just the heart.
Speaker 3:So what other body parts are bigger like? Do they drive like a station waiting through a small intestines or ass or something?
Speaker 2:oh man, do you imagine if you excited one of those?
Speaker 4:oh my god is there any actual stories of somebody being blown out? The blowhole of a whale? It has to be.
Speaker 3:You think, yeah, it had to happen to some heart, right? Yeah, if the heart's that big, then you could.
Speaker 2:The blowhole is probably big too, yeah hang time dude, as they're flying through the air, man, I mean, how do you get out of one? Like not that it matters, but let's find somebody that has been swallowed by a whale right, just for fun. Man, all right. This next one, man. There's a species of ant that can shrink its brain and then regrow it later why would you have to shrink it? Don't know. It's not like it's going to change size as the form of an ant. And how do they know that?
Speaker 4:Yeah, that's a better question. I can report that with confidence.
Speaker 3:Maybe the uncle told them yeah.
Speaker 4:That's true. The uncle told them.
Speaker 2:So this next one man, that one I'll throw out the window, because we ain't cat scanning. No ants. Cows have best friends and get stressed when separated.
Speaker 4:I believe that 100%.
Speaker 2:Man, imagine if they go to the chop shop, man, and the one cow's just watching its buddy go.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I've seen videos of different types of animals and they do like think like that, like if you ever watch elephants, elephants really have like funeral, like things and mourn the loss of their uh, fellow, other ones in their pack and stuff.
Speaker 2:I have seen.
Speaker 3:I have seen this on national geographic when they like stand around and they like mourn yeah that, that's crazy man and then when I went, when we went to the buffalo ranch in uh, indiana, northern indiana, uh-huh, the guy that was talking to us said when one of the buffalo dies, the other buffalo will hang around it for a while and then they can't get the body of the buffalo until they like, go away from it and stuff.
Speaker 3:And then they were able to get it. And when they, you know, get all the meat and stuff, and then they were able to get it. And when they, you know, get all the meat and stuff and and deal with the fur and all that and get down, sometimes they'll keep the skull and put it on like a wall or something over by the where the Buffaloes are, by the fence and that, and the Buffaloes will go to it. They know that it's that's their, the one who passed away in their, in their herd, and they'll go up to it and like, uh, like bow, and go by it and like, nudge it and stuff, cause they know it's them. And I'm like, whoa, that's so freaking crazy yeah.
Speaker 2:That place you're talking about man. It's only like 20 minutes South of my house. Yeah. That. That is crazy, but that is morbid too. They're going to see their friend's head just decay.
Speaker 3:Yeah and you think oh, they don't know, that's just a no, they know, they sense and know that that's their family member or something that died.
Speaker 2:Here's another one. Man, Get a happy one, this one. If you thought the Venus one was weird, how about this? A day on Mercury is twice as long as its year.
Speaker 4:Well, now we understand how they're measuring it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you can't.
Speaker 4:It's not as crazy.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you can't fool us. Remember who you're talking to. The smart guys here, right.
Speaker 2:Imagine the work day. Oh my God.
Speaker 1:What the hell with this?
Speaker 2:Like holy shit, I feel like I've been here forever man.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yesterday we worked for a year.
Speaker 2:The word okay is the most widely understood word in the world.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I believe it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I believe it too.
Speaker 3:Everybody's like okay okay, yeah, once one language defined it to another language, they're like oh yeah, that's what you know, we kind of okay and they just copy off each other. Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 2:Here's one, guys, that I don't understand. So human beings share 60% of their DNA with bananas.
Speaker 3:Bananas. Wait a minute 60%.
Speaker 2:Not pajamas but bananas.
Speaker 4:Wow, wow Okay.
Speaker 3:That is very appealing what you just said there, sir. Appealing 60%, that's. Where are you getting this information from? This is on uh on uh on google oh then they never lie but but not monkeys bananas, right, you could just hang around and find out so pretty much, if you've got like a bunch of bananas, you got a family uh gathering and then it's.
Speaker 4:Yeah, it kind of feels like cannibalism now.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no kidding, oh my God.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, I've seen videos with things done with bananas.
Speaker 3:Don't go there.
Speaker 2:No, no, I'm just saying you can make banana pudding. Oh okay, banana pie, all right. Moving on and back to the octopus, uh-oh, an octopus's tentacles have a mind of their own and can function independently.
Speaker 3:I tell that to my wife about my hands. Oh, they have a mind of their own honey.
Speaker 2:Well, keith's always got to be busy man, so I see that with him too.
Speaker 4:Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 2:Guy, that's always working. So anyways, absolutely it's always working. So, anyways, the first oranges weren't orange, they were green.
Speaker 4:You think that was just being impatient.
Speaker 3:Come on, I'm hungry.
Speaker 2:It's a banana. It's a green too, Is that?
Speaker 4:sick, not knowing they were supposed to get there.
Speaker 3:And they left some in a box and they misplaced it or something. They said these things turned orange and they like, started tasting them.
Speaker 4:Wait a minute. That's the first excuse for being lazy. They're supposed to be that way.
Speaker 2:No, we'll pick them tomorrow this guys is the last fact. So sean and pennsylvania don't bother me no more this year about facts. The average cloud weighs over a million pounds.
Speaker 4:All that moisture.
Speaker 2:That's a crazy one.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that would take real math to figure that out.
Speaker 2:How would they calculate that?
Speaker 3:Probably the weight of any part of it, the weight of moisture or something I don't know. It's like they of moisture or something I don't know yeah.
Speaker 2:It's like they said, a spoonful of antimatter. Nobody in the world could lift One spoon.
Speaker 3:Antimatter.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's like dark matter is what it's called, and no, I'm not talking comic books. It's a real thing. Yeah, a spoonful of that. No human on Earth can lift. It's a real thing. Yeah, a spoonful of that. No human on Earth can lift. It's heavier than the DM pyramid.
Speaker 3:Well, I heard, a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down.
Speaker 2:The medicine goes down. All right Again. Sean, I hope you enjoyed your facts segment. Now let's move on to some real stuff.
Speaker 4:Happy Thanksgiving, Sean Happy Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2:So if you guys won the lottery, yes, other than answers like helping your family and friends, that's boring. What would you do if you won the lottery?
Speaker 4:I would get a lot more dogs, that's for sure I would. I would be. If you ever see those memes that they they say I wouldn't say anything, but things would be different, and then they show a room full of dogs yeah, that would probably be mine. That'd be the most noticeable thing.
Speaker 2:It's funny that you say that, Keith, because, like Miley Cyrus, when she's traveling around she'll go to a dog shelter and buy all the dogs and ship them to her house and then she gives them out to her friends oh, that's cool yeah, very cool if the friends don't want they have too many dogs.
Speaker 3:They'd be like oh, miley's on the phone, don't answer it, don't answer it, I can't fit any more dogs in here, not another dog, but I'd rather be around dogs than people anyway. Well, you'd first have to get a place. That's going to prepare yourself for all these dogs, I guess.
Speaker 2:She's got the land in Tennessee.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And the big house like 40 rooms.
Speaker 4:I think enough money to start a TV network would be fun.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Or F-A-K-E radio.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh live.
Speaker 2:Jim, what would you buy?
Speaker 3:I would first say so long powers point podcast, or do, or do special segments live from a rich man's house, yeah.
Speaker 2:Would you tell your friends about it, or family? Other than your, your immediate family, like your wife and kid I wouldn't even tell them would you put your job or would you?
Speaker 3:worry, honey, I'm busy. No, um, you just ask my, ask my wife, if it comes to like secrets or something, or something important, or I don't want to get out. She, she'll tell you. I don't tell no co-workers. You could ask my co-workers. I don't say anything to anybody. I won't tell anybody friends, family and I'll just keep it secret until they need to know or if they need to know have you guys ever seen the news clip?
Speaker 2:uh, when, when the lottery was over a billion dollars and they asked the guy in line sir, if you win the lottery, what are you going to buy? Have you guys ever seen that?
Speaker 4:No, I don't think so.
Speaker 2:And he turned around on live TV and he said hookers and cocaine.
Speaker 4:Oh, okay.
Speaker 2:And they cut the camera real fast.
Speaker 5:Those are your lucky numbers. Can I tell you what? Do you know? Your chances of winning?
Speaker 4:Slim to none. Slim to none.
Speaker 5:Slim to none. You're right. Let me tell you, it's one out of 292 million. What do you think about that?
Speaker 4:I knew it.
Speaker 5:You knew it. Your numbers are lucky, though. Am I right? I hope so. Can I ask you if you won all the money, what would you do with it? A bunch, that's not good, we were hoping for a different answer. That's probably not the answer that we're looking for.
Speaker 2:You can't like say any you can't really tell what you're going to do, because some people might hold you up against it. Even family, I've seen Right Everybody turns on you, or? Everybody just pops out of the woodwork and they're like, hey, we're best friends from third grade, or for your fourth cousin, best friends from third grade, or, uh, for your fourth cousin, yeah, yeah. Or or they sue you for something, that something.
Speaker 4:I fell in your yard, I sprained my ankle, I'm suing yeah, well, I used to work, uh, for this guy who was like a multi-millionaire and we would have, you know, just regular conversation from time to time. And I asked him and you know, do you ever feel like, when you talk to people, that everyone you meet is working you because you know you can possibly change their life? I said, when I meet people, I feel like, because I have nothing to offer them, I'm getting their true, genuine self. And he says I don't know about that, but then he walked away and then, like five minutes later he came back. He says I don't know about that, but then he walked away and then like five minutes later he came back. He says, hey, you know what he says. You're right about that. He says I feel like I've lost a lot of money helping out and he did the air quotes friends over my lifetime.
Speaker 2:On top of that, what you're saying is what about romance? If you were single? How do you know they really like you?
Speaker 4:for you, yeah how do you know they really like you for you? Yeah, and not a gold digger, right, right, I think you could still manipulate that if you, you know, if you didn't insist I I know it's a strange thing to say, but if you didn't insist on romance, you could still enjoy your life with you know, kind of without it you would have to have every woman's or person a prenup, because you know you can't trust anyone if you have that many millions that they're not going to, or once they break up.
Speaker 3:That's all I'll show, Unless they do too. Yeah.
Speaker 2:And to keep this from your friends and family, would you quit your job?
Speaker 1:I wouldn't quit right away. I can't quit mine.
Speaker 3:You know why I can't quit mine. It's, I'm here, I would. I would totally do the quiet thing and not tell anybody and just say let's do still work a month or whatever and just quietly just say I'm quitting or something, yeah, I'm pursuing, I'm pursuing other things, and just leave it at that.
Speaker 2:Like you couldn't even buy some like outlandish car, no, you know, because then people will be like do what the heck? And then you get stolen and insurance would be like no, I'm not paying for that.
Speaker 3:I would have to get in our area trust, maybe a family member that could really trust, to tell me financially what to do and the steps to secure the money before I even spend anything, because I would. I would not do any stupid spending right like I would pay off the bills oh yeah, that's, that's guaranteed. But I wouldn't just hurry up, start throwing the money, you know you know.
Speaker 2:But like, a lot of people are like, oh, I'll donate it to the orphanage and and I'm thinking, no, you wouldn't.
Speaker 5:You know, you get that money.
Speaker 3:You could say that now, when you don't have money, I would say I'll do all that once I start paying the bills and getting like a chunk of it into savings where it's making money, like they all say. You're supposed to have money, make money. I would get that all set up and then I would start waiting for uh, what is it called?
Speaker 2:interest and everything. Would you take the one lump sum or would you do the monthly, the monthly payment for the rest of your life? I don't know.
Speaker 4:I think I take the lump sum just because I wouldn't trust that it wouldn't. Some point they'd be like well it's, we don't have any more, you're out. It doesn't matter whether we owe it to you or not. You're not getting it.
Speaker 3:So because of this crisis, we can't give you the rest of your earnings. I would definitely ask a lawyer or whatever financial person, which is the best option in my options, but how do you know they're not in it for them. That's why I'm saying it's hard.
Speaker 2:I would have a lumpy mattress.
Speaker 3:I would have a lumpy mattress. There has to be a, a fax and a chart of how many millionaires trusted the wrong person with their finances and they got robbed. That's where I have to get a family member that I with my whole life, you know grew up trusting.
Speaker 2:I think for me I would. I would keep working, but I would have a like a comedy club yeah, not around my house, but like somewhere else, you know, and like something that I can go to. But there's no like comedy to make people laugh, nothing really good around my house. Without driving to chicago, I think I would spend a lot of my time in canada, you know that's a given.
Speaker 3:I would definitely look on a map where to live, where it's away from a lot of people and stuff, but kind of close by big stuff to where it's not a lot of population and stuff yeah, there are so many places there.
Speaker 4:There are towns. There's like towns they called, uh, you know, brian ohio, um, aleria, ohio, xenia. There's towns called Bryan Ohio, elyria Ohio, xenia, they're so out of the way. And then on the way to those places, there are mansions man. Yeah, mansions, mansions.
Speaker 2:It's like Doc Lesnar. He lives in Canada and I think the nearest city to him is over 100 miles away, because he bought a lot of land and he just stays away from people.
Speaker 3:Yeah because, it looks, scott, you and me are like how an hour from chicago hour and whatever if that, I'm right down the street and any big target like that city of chicago. That's I wouldn't want. This is still too close to a big city like that.
Speaker 2:I would want to be farther away I would hire security, because once the wind gets out, that you won, oh yeah but, like the largest one person was like 1.2 billion dollars and they accepted the one lump sum and they came out to like 450 million. Oh my gosh, so all that rest of that was tax yeah, well, that's.
Speaker 3:I'd say. Go ahead and take whatever you that's, I still got almost 500 million man. That's where you buy an island or something, yeah.
Speaker 2:I'm glad you said that.
Speaker 3:Up in Nova Scotia or somewhere up there.
Speaker 2:Oh man, I got a list of things that people have bought after winning the lottery. Let's start off with this A water park in your backyard, complete with slides and a lazy river Awesome. If you had the property, yeah, you know you can't do it in the city because people are going to see that you built something crazy, and know you came into some money.
Speaker 3:And the second you're not home. People are going to start invading your area.
Speaker 2:How about this one, a medieval castle? Why not live like royalty?
Speaker 4:Out in the woods.
Speaker 2:A house shaped like a shoe.
Speaker 4:Why A lot of kids?
Speaker 2:I don't know. This is a list of things that people have actually bought, that's crazy. A mansion with a built-in shark tank.
Speaker 3:That's nuts.
Speaker 2:You know what's? The comedian that was in the bad car accident that he done Trace. Morgan, yeah, in his house he had the whole garage turned into an aquarium, yeah, and he has live sharks in there.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, Six sharks. Yeah he has sharks everywhere. No, because you got to feed them and've got to take care of them. That's a lot of money.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you feed them to a neighbor.
Speaker 4:Could you get emotionally attached to a?
Speaker 2:shark, you can't pet it.
Speaker 3:That's what I was wondering. I've known some lawyers in my day that are hard to get to know. Good card players.
Speaker 2:How about this one A solid gold sports car?
Speaker 3:No.
Speaker 2:Impractical and flashy.
Speaker 3:Yeah, the second. You park it somewhere. Guess what it's gone. They're ripping parts off.
Speaker 2:How heavy that would have to be. You couldn't cross the bridges.
Speaker 4:No it's dumb, I can barely drive anyway.
Speaker 2:Keith said he gets lost in his own neighborhood.
Speaker 4:I have gotten lost in my own town before, where I've had to look at what I know is the tallest building in downtown Toledo and think well, I know, as long as I keep going towards that, I'll be okay.
Speaker 2:How about this one, this one's kind of a cool one, a custom Batmobile.
Speaker 4:That would be neat.
Speaker 2:Complete with crime fighting gadgets. That'd be cool which batmobile style would you take? Would you take the 66 version or would you take that long crazy ass?
Speaker 4:michael keaton one oh, the tumbler, for sure that'd be the one I'd want is that?
Speaker 2:is that the christian bale one?
Speaker 3:yes, yes, I was gonna say the 66. Until you said the Tumbler, I said okay, that's the one right there.
Speaker 2:I mean you got the motorcycle inside it and you just pop out the door and that would be cool, all right. So a personal submarine, no.
Speaker 3:You'd have to know how to drive it and have too many people to run it and stuff and store it there's no way and have too many people to run it and stuff and store it?
Speaker 2:There's no way. Well, we see what happened with the Titanic Explorers last year, when they imploded. All right, a luxury RV with a built-in movie theater.
Speaker 4:Okay, I can dig that one Movie theater.
Speaker 3:How many people are going to put in there?
Speaker 2:I don't know how big's the theater.
Speaker 4:Oh, my God.
Speaker 3:How big does the screen have to be to be a theater? No, because you're. If you're on the highway watching a movie and all of a sudden you have to veer because of a semi.
Speaker 2:You're all watching the movie and all of a sudden you're like well, obviously the driver ain't, obviously the driver's not gonna watch the movie no, he's not watching it, but he could be dodging traffic or, you know, like hitting the bumps or something true, true everybody's bouncing off a movie screen how about a private jet with a disco floor?
Speaker 3:yeah, if you want to go crazy up there, I guess yeah, I don't know, would you guys? Would you guys buy a plane or consider it and then no no I'd probably rent it out if I've learned anything anything from the internets and the videos and other podcasts. They say that jet fuel is like so much money.
Speaker 2:But you can afford it.
Speaker 3:No millions. Go away fast if you're paying for jet fuel.
Speaker 2:Not to mention.
Speaker 3:you go anywhere, you've got to mess with the what is it called? The people in charge of the flights or something, the air traffic control and all that. You've got to like federal stuff.
Speaker 2:Have you guys in florida recently.
Speaker 3:You go there every night or every other.
Speaker 2:No, but like his house, he has a runway that goes right up to the his mansion at the 747, the big one that virgin air gave him. He just pulls up the plane and and the nose goes into like the garage, and then he just goes right out the damn uh the door into the house. When the jet takes off does it play staying alive, and he just goes right out the door into the house.
Speaker 3:When the jet takes off, does it play Staying Alive and he just goes.
Speaker 2:He's the one with the disco. He hits it.
Speaker 3:He's the one with the disco in his jet.
Speaker 2:How about this one? Someone bought a racehorse named after themselves.
Speaker 4:The horse was already named after them before they bought it.
Speaker 2:No, he named the racehorse after himself.
Speaker 4:That seemed like something I would do. This is my racehorse, Keith Mackey.
Speaker 2:And hope to God that the horse is good. And then, last place, traveling by 20 horses Keith Mackey.
Speaker 4:I just assumed it wouldn't be. That's probably why I would buy it.
Speaker 2:How about a penguin colony complete with ice machines?
Speaker 3:No, like you said with the sharks and the penguins, those animals need a real locked place to roam and stuff and you're keeping it contained into a certain area.
Speaker 2:What if you have like 1,000 acres and you build some crazy ass like that ski resort in Dubai? It's a ski resort in the desert and that place is huge.
Speaker 3:But with the penguins are you going to have to, like, make sure the temperature is constantly like for them, perfect, and how are you going to control that too? And if the power outage, I don't know.
Speaker 2:I don't know. That would be weird though.
Speaker 3:You got to worry about power outages.
Speaker 2:How about this, they're?
Speaker 3:going to die.
Speaker 2:A clone of your beloved, lost dog.
Speaker 4:We looked into that in May. So yes, absolutely, I would do it A clone in may.
Speaker 2:So yes, absolutely, I would do it. A clone would be weird, but I would do it. I'm sorry. Yeah, china, china. There's a place in china that you send the dna, like hair samples or whatever, and they will clone your dog for you eight grand, I think something like that eight.
Speaker 4:I know it was like 30 grand, I'm sorry yeah, yeah, it's very expensive. But you also have to have them, their DNA, very, very fast.
Speaker 2:They almost have to still be alive when you get it and plus, if they have a cancer or whatever, it's still in their DNA, so it's going to happen to them again.
Speaker 1:Oh man, oh wow.
Speaker 2:So that would be crazy. All right, guys. Another thing that rich people have bought for the unique collectors of art. How about this? A full-size T-Rex skeleton?
Speaker 3:What is that? Nicolas Cage or something?
Speaker 2:That guy's a whole new level man. He buys Cobras and everything else Like you can't even cut them.
Speaker 1:I didn't know that about him.
Speaker 2:How about this.
Speaker 3:Yeah, where are you going to display that?
Speaker 2:Well, you'll have that mansion with that foyer in the foyer. Yeah, in the sitting room.
Speaker 4:Oh, you don't almost have to have a room for the T-Rex. You know like, ah, it's the T-Rex room.
Speaker 2:That's the T-Rex. I would have a lot of man caves, like a lot of passages through the house, something that I could dip out on. How about this? A vault of rare comic books?
Speaker 3:If you're a collector, I could see that. I could see that when it's temperature controlled.
Speaker 2:Here's one, Jim, that might make you mad.
Speaker 3:A million-dollar crystal bathtub.
Speaker 2:why would it make me mad, no man, would somebody spending a million dollars?
Speaker 3:oh, yeah, yeah, that's just no, that's dumb, because if you're like you know, like uh large, like me, or something you know you're gonna, you know you're gonna crack it or you're gonna break something off and stuff, you're like god dang it. You know how much money that cost to fix yeah, that would be weird, wouldn't it?
Speaker 4:everything you had, you, you would be like extra, uh, like precious about it and everything would seem like so fragile.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that would be hard I'm it's bad enough with with family and myself that are breaking furniture at my house and stuff.
Speaker 2:I mean I'd just be happy with furniture that could hold large frames and stuff or you know, like when they have like a, a crystal vase and it's got some water and you just take your fingertip and rub it on the top and it comes up with some musical tone.
Speaker 3:Imagine that on a bathtub I thought you were going to talk about putting it in a toilet, and every time you put your butt on there and you go around the circle imagine a see-through toilet, a crystal toilet, where you can watch it go down the tubes. Oh no, Crazy. See, I already freak out whenever I sit on anything and it starts creaking. I mean I don't want to worry about crystal.
Speaker 2:I got just a couple left and then we'll move on to our big battle. So somebody has bought a ghost town, a legit ghost town, I believe that, a Wild West one.
Speaker 3:They have those out in the deadwood and stuff and those old ghost mines and stuff that nobody goes to Right.
Speaker 2:And Superstition Mountain. Okay, this one's a little bit messed up. Man, A lifetime supply of luxury toilet paper.
Speaker 4:In 2020, that would have been a good buy.
Speaker 2:Comfort matters, comfort matters.
Speaker 3:What's so luxury about it?
Speaker 2:It's probably five-ply.
Speaker 3:Then you're getting a towel and wiping your ass pretty much what the hell that's stupid.
Speaker 4:And the thing with Lifetime Anything is that's kind of like assuming that it's never going to evolve into something better.
Speaker 2:Yeah, right and it's going to disappear, so you're not going to really own it, it's just going to like well, I guess it's the lifetime supply you're never running out, but you're just throwing it down the drain literally yeah, or you're trying to throw it back down the drain again, like I've been doing for the past month. How about this? Naming rights for a mountain or a stadium? Immortality is guaranteed.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but then someone richer is going to it says a star.
Speaker 2:But who the hell knows where the star is?
Speaker 3:Well, that's just legal on. That's not really legal. Legal it's just whatever the company says. It's legal for naming a star or a plot of land or something, and with stadiums.
Speaker 2:How long is a stadium? 20 years. It's just going to be for 20 years and for changes again.
Speaker 3:Or if Amazon or someone rich comes by, they'll just buy your name out from under you and change it. There's always someone richer. Or if Amazon or someone rich comes by, they'll just buy your name out from under you and change it. Yeah, there's always someone richer.
Speaker 2:This next one and the last one is something that I would totally do A fleet of food trucks. Oh, so you walk out of there. Oh, there's the taco truck, or here's the Italian beef plate taco or the Italian beef truck. You know, you just pull up to it and get some free food and roll.
Speaker 3:But that's for yourself, right? Or is that your career? You're serving people up this food.
Speaker 2:No, you own those companies, so you know you're making money from people buying it, but you don't have to buy it. You just you know.
Speaker 3:Oh, okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:I guess it'd be okay if you own the company.
Speaker 4:Yeah, all 20. Some of them, some of them food truck folks tend to, um, I think, enjoy their own product a little too much. I've been with you.
Speaker 2:I thought that was that way, you know right, but there are some that you're like oh my god, this is amazing, right well it's like uh, anybody ever bring you a sandwich and put condiments on it without you asking?
Speaker 4:You know what I'm saying? That's kind of like almost what I feel like with that. Like, oh you don't have mayonnaise on your sandwich like this. No, we don't do that here.
Speaker 3:Yeah, hey, hey, hey, I'm allergic to that ass.
Speaker 2:I watched a Mexican truck the other day online. Man, you know how people have walking tacos yes, you bring this truck. Your own bag of chips yeah, I saw that, so some guy brought his whole big bag of Doritos and it looks so damn good man, oh, those are good, I can only imagine they cut the side open and they put hunks of meat in there and all that other stuff.
Speaker 2:They put chicken and beef in the hot. He's like you want hot? He's like, yeah, yeah, make it hot. That's just some of the things, man, that not us poor people can really enjoy.
Speaker 3:We'll have to enjoy what they enjoy you know what would be enjoyable Enjoying I don't know what I'm saying Another commercial.
Speaker 6:Let's do it. If you want to hear all the action Northwest Indiana's wrestling scene, listen to Mostly Metal and Northwest Indiana Rap. Wvlp 103.1 fm. The metal professor tells you all about metal music, but he does the wrap-up for wrestling in this area. Very knowledgeable, great fan of wrestling, he knows his stuff, trust me all right, welcome back again.
Speaker 2:We are going to do the true and false battle of the wits, and some of these questions you might know and some you might not. And you know I thought who better would be to go against Jim. It obviously couldn't be me, because I know the answers. Let's just do this. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the big fight on the Powers Point podcast. In the red corner, wearing the Detroit Red Wings hat, you can pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger. You can tug on Superman's cape, you can spit into the wind, but there's one thing you can't do and that's mess around with Jim. And in the other corner, in the man in the foyer with all the art decorations and neon lights behind him, all the way from Toledo, ohio, he is the killer Keith Mackey. How was that one guys? I never ring announced, but anyway, let's start this off. It is 20 questions. All right, let me get the scoreboard out here.
Speaker 3:Yeah, get the scoreboard.
Speaker 2:Okay, let's change the page here because I got too much written on it. Okay, okay, here we go. First round. Octopuses have three hearts, true or false?
Speaker 1:True, true.
