We have a real treat for you the entire clubhouse is coming together for this one. I'm your host, becca, and today I'm joined by Brooke, nessie, angie how are we doing today, guys? Doing great, so good, having a great day Good.
Speaker 3:How are you Becca?
Speaker 1:You know, honestly, we said before we recorded this guys Doing great, so good, Having a great day. How are you, Becca? You know, honestly, we said before we recorded this, like I had a weird start to my day, so I've just been on some freak shit. Today I'm going to be really honest with you.
Speaker 3:I'm just a little bit weird. I had freak for breakfast. I know what you've been up to.
Speaker 4:So yeah, that's a fair assessment.
Speaker 1:Like I had a bowl of freakios for breakfast. Yeah, just to give you a kind of a peek behind the curtain, we do have a really fun episode coming up. Be on the lookout for Lord of the Kinks, but you'll know what we're talking about soon. But today we wanted to get together and talk about some nostalgia and things that make us think of our childhood and simpler times. Do you guys have anything you want to get us started with?
Speaker 4:Well, I just want to say that I think it'll be really cool because, like I'm an O2 baby, so my nostalgic things are going to be maybe similar but also different from you guys Because, like I, was the generation of, like Disney Channel and Nickelodeon and you know, I feel like that as the youngest. I feel maybe there are probably some things that are different between like our things as such, as toys and stuff too. So it'll be cool to see the differences and the similarities.
Speaker 5:I'm excited because I think there's also going to be like cultural differences for me, since I grew up in Canada, so we'll have that, which is going to be pretty fun, yeah or international correspondent Brooke yeah, I feel like I'm the outlier here because, like I'm the Bert and Ernie generation, I want some Bert and Ernie hey.
Speaker 4:Bert what are you?
Speaker 1:doing Bert hey, Bert those are my favorites.
Speaker 3:Hey, bert, what are you?
Speaker 5:doing Bert, Don't they have like a cute little song?
Speaker 4:They do.
Speaker 3:They have the rubber ducky song, the rubber ducky song.
Speaker 4:Hell yeah, brother used to sing that all the time in the car.
Speaker 5:Speaking of rubber ducks, I stepped on one in the alley the other day, where the trash is, and I was like I really want to pick this up but I'm not going to because it's beside the trash you'd be the first person to get hepatitis from a rubber duck right not risking that not with somebody else's lifestyle wife I have a question for you all.
Speaker 3:Did you grow up with trapper keepers?
Speaker 1:yes, what do you know what?
Speaker 4:a trapper keeper um I know exactly what you're talking about. I know what a trapper keeper is because when I was in elementary and middle school they were super popular. All the kids who had money had them. I was just the kid who you know. My mom was a single mom working her butt off, so I had my binder and my backpack. I didn't realize I had trapper keeper privilege.
Speaker 5:It sounds like you have a toy that traps and keeps little pets or bugs.
Speaker 1:Like a three ring binder that zips up.
Speaker 5:We have five star in Canada. It's called a five star binder.
Speaker 3:Mine had like a Velcro cover to it so we hadn't moved up to zippers. Oh yeah, but that was like the big thing. Yeah, a strap on, a strap on Lisa Frank, if your trapper keeper had.
Speaker 5:Like I want it. This is screaming rookie Guys.
Speaker 4:that's the hill I'm gonna die on. Office supplies can be cool.
Speaker 3:If I walk into a Staples, I'm so happy yeah.
Speaker 5:You're literally talking to the girl who has pink staplers like glitter binders. I have like the most gel glitter pens to like write all my schoolwork in. Like I know office supplies can be cool.
Speaker 4:See, I was the friend who, like I, did a lot of like pen palling on my own when I was younger, and so I liked getting like the cute little different stickers and the stationeries and like different papers to put on there and I would basically like make a collage into a letter.
Speaker 1:Let me ask you this Do you have a favorite brand of pen? I like those RSVP pens. I think, they might be Bic, they might be Paper Mate, I don't know.
Speaker 4:I have super sloppy handwriting and I feel like I like the glidey pens. So either like the um the Bic True Glide, or this one in my hand is a Stride Rio and it just makes my handwriting look like cursive instead of just slop. Hell yeah, it's like calligraphy.
Speaker 5:Um, the ones I like are called Onyx, I believe, and they're like a glide pen, like that too, but I've been using them ever since I was like I swear eight years old. This person I used to be friends with her dad had like a bajillion of them, and I stole all of them from their house little klepto.
Speaker 1:Angie, what's your pen brand? I tell you.
Speaker 3:I definitely go old, old school like a, like a classic bick rollerball pen. It's never failed me. But I'm also a lefty, so I feel like I'm like really weird when it comes to pens, because not all pens work for me.
Speaker 5:Do you guys have specific pens that you don't like, or like colors of pens that you don't like, because I refuse to write in blue or red?
Speaker 3:Oh, I like black ink. I have to have everything in blue ink.
Speaker 4:I don't think I have a favorite ink color, neither I don't have an ink opinion. I mean my go-to has always been black because I just grabbed black ones when I was serving. I would just grab the you know cheapest pack of my glides. I could that were all black ink.
Speaker 5:I love black that's my favorite for the basic ones, but obviously pink, purple, green.
Speaker 4:Okay, actually I lie, I lied. I can't stand green ink what? Oh? It's so pretty, though, and I think it's. I think the only time I'm cool with like using a green ink is if I'm using it like for a drawing or something, but when I'm writing with it, there's something about it that hurts my eyes.
Speaker 3:That's how I feel about red, and that see, I love red and maybe that's just. I don't know. I don't know guys. I my piece of advice always sign things in blue ink.
Speaker 1:It's easier to tell an original with blue ink rather than black ink we do a lot of game nights in my apartment and, uh, it's always like a psychological test to see what color whoever keeps score is going to choose, because I have like a full selection of colored pens. I'm like oh, a magenta guy, I didn't know. Becca adds it to her files.
Speaker 3:I do my files do you secretly judge people based on the color of ink?
Speaker 1:yeah, I do, absolutely yeah, it says something about them, you know, even if they don't know it does. It says something. I wouldn't trust an orange writer, a casual orange writer, but then I'll also tell you that I always go for orange, whatever he uses. I'm gonna tell you a little secret whoever uses, whoever uses orange is cheating oh no, I hope they don't miss it.
Speaker 5:It's like her own social experiment, like mine's mine's to do with the zodiac signs, becca's. Becca's is based on what remember becca's got a file.
Speaker 1:She's got a file on everybody.
Speaker 1:I know everyone she's got a dossier on everyone in her apartment complex based on the color of ink they choose we lost the key to the filing cabinet here at my apartment the other day and I was like, oh no, my file, everything can be taken from me. Well, I feel like school supplies like is something that resonated with you after school. Like you, you found your shit back when you were looking for your school supplies. Those were your first grown-up decisions. What pens am I going to be stuck with for the?
Speaker 4:rest of the year? Oh yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1:One thing I wanted to see, if you guys remembered, was back when Pizza Hut was a dine-in restaurant and they had a buffet. Did you guys ever live at a time with a Pizza Hut buffet?
Speaker 3:Yes, yes, I missed that shit, I was so disappointed when they took all of those out like they went to your pizza place to to that to that I'd have to ask my mom.
Speaker 4:That's the thing is like I don't, I don't, I don't remember it right, but I have to ask my mom because I'm like I remember them being a thing but I don't remember going to them.
Speaker 1:But I'm sure we did after t-ball practice, going into pizza hut and getting your personal pan pizza, your little soda. Maybe you got some quarters for the claw machine.
Speaker 4:I was a mcdonald's kid. It's got the rubber ducks in it.
Speaker 1:So, nessie, do you remember a time when McDonald's and Burger King had a ball?
Speaker 4:pit. No, but I remember when McDonald's had the life-size statues of Ronald McDonald sitting in booths and the Hamburglar. I vividly remember as a kid beating up the statue of the Hamburglar because I was like he's a villain, I gotta take him down. I remember when the play place had those. Um, I remember when the play place had the little cars, the race cars. You could sit in and spin the wheel to make the helicopter spin super fast oh my gosh, your childhood is so different than mine our burger king was so sick.
Speaker 5:Ours had video games in it and you could play this like bubble pop game. I remember it was like right outside of the play center and then they took all the play centers out. But do you guys remember when all the walmart's had mcdonald's inside of them? I mean, I feel like it was not long ago, but yes, some here still do have a mcdonald's minnesota.
Speaker 4:I've always seen subways. It's always been subway yeah, it's a subways.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's subways here. Oh, I think it is subway here now.
Speaker 5:Subway is taking over. Subway is definitely starting to take over.
Speaker 4:I've noticed that and for what for what do you do, you guys? One remember old country buffet. Two remember when old country buffets had freaking arcades inside of them I have no idea what that is as a canadian yeah
Speaker 3:I don't either.
Speaker 4:No, my god maybe it's like a super midwest thing. So old country buffet was just like the you know this perfect all you can eat buffet that you could go to with your. You know you could take your kids there and you know you probably paid like 5.99 for a kid to eat for free. You, you know all you could eat for kids over a certain age and then it was probably, I think, like $13 for adults or something before. Like when I was younger and I just I vividly had to be cheap because, like my parents would take us a lot, a lot, and they had like the ice cream machines you could make, you could do your own swirly cones, and it was so like it's like golden corral, I don't even know golden corral is pretty I feel like I missed out.
Speaker 5:It's all you it's still around.
Speaker 1:Golden corral is still very much a thing. I haven't been in years because they're a little gross on the inside most of the time. Allegedly don't come for me, but like you can get like a whole crap ton of gummy bears and stick them in your purse if you want honestly, that's kind of you gotta.
Speaker 1:You gotta have a little baggie prepared yeah, golden corral is one of those places. Like you bring the big purse and like maybe some zip lock baggies, if you want to take some wet goods with you, we should all go to golden corral and steal we'll be like okay, we'll go to golden corral the first night and then, when you're there, just fill up your purse with everything you want for the rest of the trip.
Speaker 4:Then we don't have to spend that much money on food.
Speaker 5:Okay, but this is the thing I am not going to go to any Golden Corrals until we all get to go together. So then you guys can all see my reaction to Golden Corral.
Speaker 1:We're going to pop her Golden Corral cherry.
Speaker 5:I want her to see the kids sneezing into the chocolate fountain.
Speaker 1:I want her to see the congealed mashed potatoes. That's the American dream. They don't tell you apart.
Speaker 5:I have a question for you guys. Do you remember soccer boppers?
Speaker 3:Yes, no.
Speaker 5:I knew Becca would have my back on this one.
Speaker 4:Wait, what is it? Because I might not just know the name of it.
Speaker 5:It's like a glove balloon toy that you blow up and you put it on your fist, and then you beat the shit out of each other.
Speaker 4:Yeah, oh wait, those are called soccer balls. I mean, I used to get them at the dollar store and call them punch balls or whatever.
Speaker 5:Yeah, they're just, I don't know. We just call them soccer, a soccer bopper, and you blow them up and then you just go to town on each other and it doesn't hurt because it's like a fistful of air.
Speaker 4:Essentially, we used to walk to the dollar store and buy a bunch of them in the summer, me and my siblings, and then we would just go at it in the backyard with them jumping on the trampoline, bopping each other.
Speaker 3:Yes, that's the epitome of childhood. Right there now we were a little bit more thunderdome. We had lawn darts and things that would actually hurt each other, potato guns and that's that was my childhood auto rocket fights let me ask you guys were you bike kids like?
Speaker 1:did you guys go out and ride your bikes?
Speaker 4:yes, oh yeah, yes yes, I was a neighborhood bike kid. You could catch me running up and down the alley on my bike until the street lights came on were you guys big on making like your own ramps and stuff?
Speaker 5:too. We didn't make ramps too often. We did a little bit, but mostly we would play like cops and robbers and like pretend we were in Grand Theft Auto, even though we didn't know what Grand Theft Auto meant. We just thought it was like a cops and robbers kind of game. I guess, I don't know. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 4:I remember I lived in this house when I was younger and we had this we had a deck that didn't have like the the um, the railings around it and it wasn't like super high or anything, but it had a wheelchair ramp. So we would just use that to like full force ourselves into the street.
Speaker 1:Nice like let's go, let's go, let's go. So me and my siblings, we were hardcore on bikes like we had this. There's this one house we lived in in moore, oklahoma. We lived next to this, like huge hill, and like the game was one of us would go to the top of the hill and ride our bike down as fast as we could, and the other two would run in with a pipe and try to stick it in your tire while you were going down the hill and it would literally make you flip over and eat dirt.
Speaker 1:Like it was so violent. How did we not die?
Speaker 4:it's like straight up indiana jord, like the pipe is we um, I didn't do stuff like that, but we used to play chicken in the street while we were playing basketball. If we seen a car coming down the road, we would wait until that car got as close as it could before we ran out just to see who could stand there the longest Chicken, I think was one of the favorite neighborhood games with like me and all the neighborhood kids growing up Tell me about a TV show that you used to watch when you were young and like how it turned you into the way you are today um invader zim made me a freak.
Speaker 1:It broke me. Invader zim foster.
Speaker 4:Some imaginary friends of spongebob like those wrecked me like I had no chance I watched a lot of Nickelodeon and Disney Channel coming up and you know, as we've all discovered about Nickelodeon, there is some definitely hidden things hidden in there. So I think that definitely shaped me into the person you know today, subconsciously. I also watched Invader Zim growing up. So Invader Zim can do some things to people.
Speaker 5:I love Invader Zim.
Speaker 1:I didn't watch that till I was a teenager, though, so I don't have any excuse on that was invader zoom was special because my dad worked this weird job where he would get off at like two in the morning and me and my sister would stay up like extra late, just so like that was our time to hang out with our dad was to like sit there and watch invader zoom. It was was awesome invader zim.
Speaker 5:Literally anytime I see a tiktok, I will always share it like I'm like yes, this is the best part of invader zim.
Speaker 1:It's like just one of the characters just screaming like every single clip I see literally just like, eyes closed, screaming what about you, angie?
Speaker 5:what's a tv show that turned you are, turned you into the way you are? What turned you on?
Speaker 3:um that did, that did what this didn't exactly turn me on, but I don't know.
Speaker 4:I think that was really kind of weird segue there.
Speaker 3:Uh, I think I was really shaped by Looney Tunes cartoons. I mean, we're talking like the height of Wile E Coyote. Wile E Coyote and Yosemite Sam, and you know, there was just some wild, wild cartoons.
Speaker 2:But that was like the Saturday morning.
Speaker 3:Right, you know you'd get marvin the martian. Oh my god he's my favorite.
Speaker 1:Marvin the martian's my guy, but like you, know I that was like the saturday morning.
Speaker 3:you got up early, you got your bowl of cereal and you got as close to the tv as you possibly could and that was your whole sat, just the cartoons. And you know, I think that's probably helped shape my warped sense of humor.
Speaker 5:Yeah, Dude there's so much lately that always, like whenever I'm talking to you, I'm always like Wile E Coyote. I feel like that's like the most messed up part about that show is the Wile E Coyote how he's always like blowing himself up all the time. Oh my God.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and then we were conditioned to laugh at that. I know it's really messed up that was everyone. That was entertainment dude.
Speaker 5:No wonder we laugh at our trauma nowadays right, we're laughing at a freaking coyote getting blown up every two seconds.
Speaker 4:You have to admit he was tasteful with his deaths.
Speaker 5:Yeah, he was a creative coyote honestly, I think he, I think he should be embarrassed like he died for no reason a lot of the time.
Speaker 3:Yes for no reason like at all why? Can't you just?
Speaker 1:be like a regular coyote and chase, chase the roadrunner like a regular coyote roadrunners are like really small, so it's not even like it'd be much of a meal we didn't have nickelodeon.
Speaker 5:Um, mine were sailor moon and card captors, which makes sense, because now I'm an astrology and tarot girly. Like yeah, it's, it's like, oh yeah. Like I tell you what my favorite cartoons were when I was a kid and people are like okay, yeah, we know everything about you.
Speaker 4:Now yeah, that does make a lot of sense. Well, because, like, if you think about it like, I watched a lot of like iCarly and Victorious growing up, and then I also watched a lot of like creepy kids cartoons growing up. So I think that makes me know, like if you were to describe me, I'm you know like really funny, but you have like a lot of dark aesthetic I and I have dark humor too, yeah, um, but I also.
Speaker 4:I think another thing that contributes to that is like I also grew up watching and this isn't even a kid's show, but like my thing with my mom. My mom was a single mom who used to work the night shift at perkins all the time, so like when my mom would come home and we'd have dinner and we would sit and watch house together. The show about doctors like that was my favorite thing as a kid and I like I think that has contributed to like me being so caring and compassionate towards people and like always trying to like help people. If they're like telling me they feel sick, I'm like, oh well, you can try this for a remedy or you can try this like your teeth, like the things we grow up around and watch definitely shape who we are for sure.
Speaker 5:I think my dark part comes from watching, like, friday Frightmares with my dad, like, and my mom. We would all sit on this. We had like a lazy boy and we would all pile on it. And then Friday nights, this one channel had Friday Frightmares and we were allowed to watch scary movies with my parents, as long as it was Friday nights.
Speaker 4:Goosebumps. That makes me think of Goosebumps. When Goosebumps the TV show was on, like getting to sit and just watch the Goosebumps the TV show, because that was like. You know, when you're younger that was like the one scary thing my parents would let me watch, unless if they weren't home it was like more movies that were scarier than goosebumps.
Speaker 5:Like there's this movie called how to make a monster where basically they make a vr suit and the vr suit comes to life and like slaughters everyone. But I do remember I did watch one episode, only one. I've only seen one single episode of goosebumps in my entire life and it was this scary zombie episode. Been messed up about zombies ever since that day.
Speaker 4:Yet here I am playing the last of us like it's, like it's my job yeah, I think goosebumps just like conditioned me to all that weird and creepy stuff, because like yeah, sometimes I'll get a little freaked out about things, but at the end of the day I'm like, oh cool, tell me more. Like I want to know like why, why is that so spooky? And then it's like I've always had like an affliction for like the dead, and I think a lot of that also stems from, you know, watching people fucking do seances and stuff like come on now but I'm like yes, give me the heebie-jeebies please.
Speaker 4:Yes, traumatize me, please. Like I watched children of the corn at a very young age. I think I watched. I think I watched children of the corn when I was like eight years old and probably chucky around like six or seven or something like that. Like I, I vividly remember my favorite, my favorite movie was I can't remember the name, it was the chucky movie with the kid and all I remember is the scene where he's like the doll's getting shaken awake and he's like wake up, you're pissing your pants, you're pissing your pants.
Speaker 4:It's one of my favorite scenes of the movie cinema history ever.
Speaker 5:Whose alarm just went off, because I'm traumatized from that song.
Speaker 1:Manomana, that was Angie.
Speaker 5:My friend just sent me a meme about that song the other day and it's like parents nowadays are getting traumatized by baby shark.
Speaker 2:Yet I've had stuck in my head since I was six years old.
Speaker 5:I feel like that was like perfect for like what we're talking about like what are the? Things that bring you back from being a child.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, I love the Muppets, so much.
Speaker 4:What are your? What are your opinions on the newer muppet movies?
Speaker 1:I've never watched any of the muppet movies. I watched the show from like back in the day. I don't watch like newer stuff, so I don't know. I mean I've seen like the lady gaga and stuff on the muppets, but I haven't watched any of the movies what I remember.
Speaker 4:For some reason, and maybe this is just because, like I grew up with family members who like try to teach me about religion stuff but like I vividly remember there being like a muppet movie where gonzo is like the jonah vark. Am I tripping? Does anyone in the?
Speaker 1:oh no, that's totally like they did some weird shit with gonzo. Like I've seen the old school muppet movies. Gonzo's a freak, like first of all gonzo. So gonzo's an alien. Gonzo's an alien. He fucks a chicken like like his. That chicken is his wife. The chicken is his wife didn't you know?
Speaker 5:we to talk about it. We have to talk about VeggieTales.
Speaker 4:Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's like VeggieTales came out with stuff and maybe the Muppets did it first. I don't know how old that movie I watched as a kid was, but, like I said, I vividly remember there being a movie where Gonzo is on the Joan of Arc ship. No, I'm pretty sure you're right.
Speaker 5:Yeah, then it was like after that, veggie tales was a thing it would be cool if veggie tales was a show that taught about like, if the, if the main veggies had friends who were other religions but they weren't like judgmental of them, like you know what I mean yeah, I just want them to come out and I want them to come out and say it with their whole chest, like I want larry to be, like you're going to hell.
Speaker 1:You know, do it as hard as you can. Is there like a musical influence that you remember from your childhood?
Speaker 5:I thought I was just about to ask that who was like the first cd album that you guys ever?
Speaker 1:had. I had like a cassette player and I had a fleetwood mac tape. That was my first tape oh, that's actually so sick.
Speaker 4:That's why the first cd was a pink cd but other than that before that I was a I was a jonas brothers girly. I remember watching the tv show when it was on disney channel. I remember listening to them all day, every day. That and high school musical what's yours, angie?
Speaker 3:man, I'm trying to think that's, that's a, that's a deep question. I have to go way in the way back machine. I can't think of like the first CD I ever bought, but I can tell you that the first like artist that I felt had a profound um influence on me was prince, and then probably I went from prince to like prince and michael jackson was really into them and then once nirvana and the grunge music hit the scene like I never looked back. I've been a rock girl ever since.
Speaker 4:I've just had a core memory pop back into my brain, since we're on the topic of like music in our childhoods. So before, like I had that pink CD. I remember my mom or someone for my birthday one year got me one of those Kidz Bop's karaoke machines, but it was like the radio player that had a microphone and it was the outcast version. So I also think outcast has a little bit of shaping on my humor and my musical taste.
Speaker 5:So shout out to outcast mine was this local band called lilix and they actually toured um with marianna's trench before marianna's trench became a super, super, super famous Canadian artist.
Speaker 3:I have a question for you guys as we close out our time here. Looking back at the episodes that we've done so far, what do you guys think? How are we doing collectively? What's your favorite parts, I think?
Speaker 4:I've had a lot of fun with. I was on the first two episodes, one episode one coffee encrypted and then that second episode talking about healthy sexual relationships.
Speaker 3:I think I've enjoyed personal like friends and family reaching out and kind of giving their feedback. Everyone seems to be like really enjoying it. They're really impressed with our research and our topic so far, so it's been really really good positive feedback. Becca, what? What have you enjoyed about the podcast so far and any feedback that you want to share?
Speaker 1:Honestly, I feel like I've been learning so much and every single time we make one of these things, there are so many different things that we're like we're applying and trying stuff out, so it's like it's keeping my brain active. I'm having a lot of fun with it. It's really filling up my day more than I thought it would, but it's a good thing like I'm having so much fun with just the writing, the editing. But in this most recent episode that we put out in Secrets, lies and Radioactivity, that was the first episode where I wasn't nervous and I was just kind of like I was having so much fun and it was two stories that we really cared about and it was fun getting to talk about it and publish it and the feedback I've gotten has been so good, like all my true crime friends, besties, are.
Speaker 5:They're obsessing over it, they like the way we did it and the stories and yeah, I'm just having a lot of fun with it um, I am super excited because, just like getting to talk about things that I'm passionate about obviously, I guess right now I'm only on one episode. This will be the second um but being able to write about things that I feel like I have a lot of knowledge and passion about, and for future episodes too, and then also the way that my personality gets to be expressed, not only to you guys, because you get to see it most days, but also to the world, um, and then just being able to spend my time with you guys, having our little yap and making it feel like you know the whole world is invited, because I think we're really silly and I think that a lot of people would really like us and I want them to be able to relate and feel good, like something they can feel feel excited to listen to.
Speaker 4:Shout out to Enrique and James, who have left a couple of comments. We love chatting with you about a couple of our episodes over there.
Speaker 5:We love discussing things in the comments with you guys, so I have really good feedback from my friends as well for the episodes that have been sent out, the healthy sexual relationships especially. Some of my friends are pretty new to that kind of stuff and they absolutely loved it and found it super helpful. I'm so excited, for some of my friends are pretty new to that kind of stuff and they absolutely loved it and found it super helpful. I'm so excited for some of the episodes that are coming like not even that I'm going to be on some of them, but like you're guys, the lord of the, the what did you call it?
Speaker 1:lord of the freaks lord of the kings, that's me. I'm lord of the Freaks, that's me. I'm Lord of the. Freaks. I'm so excited for that. It's going to be so funny.
Speaker 4:That is Lord of the.
Speaker 3:Freaks, especially today.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Our very next episode that we're planning, which is based on Lord of the Rings. We do have a very special guest joining us on the club, so be sure to check that out, and I'm sure you'll hear lots about him and learn about our new member of the club.
Speaker 1:He's going to be our first initiate. You guys, and he's silly.
Speaker 3:He's silly, lord of the freaks can I just say, as the west virginian of the group, I cannot wait for us to do a mothman episode. I am so itching to jump into that subject and talk about not just mothman but you know, the lore with the American Indian curse, with Indrid Cold and the Men in Black, and there's so many layers to this story. I just I can't wait to share a little bit of the lore from my state and from Appalachia with the rest of the world with you all. I'm just so excited about that.
Speaker 4:I think, too, another little thing that I kind of wanted to talk about eventually is like some conspiracy theories. I think it'll be really cool for us to sit down and just do an episode about like conspiracy theories that we think could be true.
Speaker 3:Like you know, I'm still, my mind is still blown to know that there is a maple syrup mafia yes, we are doing a maple syrup mafia episode.
Speaker 5:Um, that's gonna be really. It's actually gonna be just any food mafias. Um, what was it? The avocado mafia, the avocado cartel and the maple syrup mafia yeah, uh-huh like a, isn't there?
Speaker 1:like a fish mafia the fish mafia yeah all right, this one was a lot of fun. We're all a bunch of busy babes, so it might be a couple episodes before we can get together and do a podcast with the four of us, but we would love to hear the rest of the world.
