Arden Benner 2:21
I don't want to, I don't want to get into this. Let's just move on to the topic. The topic,

Scott Benner 2:25
all right, well, I'm just going to choose the topic today. I'm not going to go back and forth with you and pretend that you're going to get involved and actually help me and etc. This is how I wish it would go every time. Well, maybe this is the new idea. I am looking here on the list, and we said that we don't understand where fat goes when you lose weight. So have you ever thought about this domino and where do you think it goes? What do you think fat is? I don't know fat. It's just fat. But what does that mean?

Arden Benner 3:05
I clearly don't know. That's why it's on the list.

Scott Benner 3:06
Okay, all right, well, let's see what we can start off, maybe by figuring out what fat is. It's adipose tissue, a type of connective tissue made up of fat cells called add up past sites. I don't know this tissue serves several issues in the body, energy storage, insulation and protection, hormone production, nutrient absorption. Now, a number of those things surprise me, like dietary fats are necessary for the absorption of fat soluble vitamins like A, D, E and K, all right, what is that going to do with what fat does hormone production? Fat tissue produces hormones like leptin, which help regulate appetite, metabolism and reproductive functions. That's interesting. I feel like we're going to get back to that insulating your body against temperature. I think that's pretty obvious. Fat stores energy in the form of triglycerides, which can be broken down and used when the body needs fuel. So triglycerides are fuel. There's white fat, brown fat and beige fat. White fat is most common, used primary for energy storage, insulation. Brown fat found more in infants and used to generate heat through a process called thermogenesis. And beige fat is a type of fat that can switch between white and brown fat properties depending on the body's needs. That's crazy. How do we do that? So that's what fat is, and what is a triglyceride? Let's find out what

Arden Benner 4:38
that is. I've heard of that. I kind of don't want to talk about this because I have to take a neuro exam tomorrow, and is going to confuse

Scott Benner 4:44
me. Yeah, do you want to pivot? I

Arden Benner 4:49
just feel like, if I'm hearing all these like scientific words, I'm gonna stop tomorrow my exam. Okay,

Scott Benner 4:56
well, listen, we could pivot and then come back to this. Find this very interesting. We could come back to it another time. Do you want to talk about something more cultural also? Wouldn't this have been great to have this conversation prior to starting?

Arden Benner 5:09
Well, I didn't know we were going to say triglyceride and we're just going to talk about fat people. You

Scott Benner 5:16
want to talk well, we were talking about, where did fat go when you lose weight? I know. But when you start talking about like, the science I like, we'll get back to it. You want to do gas lighting? We've been doing this long enough now, people probably understand how we like, like, our tone.

Arden Benner 5:29
Oh, I don't know. I'm in a bad mood today. I don't know if we should do that procrastination. I don't know. I'm in such a bad mood. I don't

Scott Benner 5:37
know, what do squirrels do, or why do squirrels exist? What do they do? What's the newer one we put on there? Why don't I see the stuff on social media in real life? Yeah, I always wonder that you wanna do that one instead? Sure. Okay, let's start with, sorry, if you guys were interested in fat, we'll pivot back to that. Don't worry.

Arden Benner 5:56
I just have a very big neuro exam tomorrow, and I don't understand anything. And half of those words like end in like, I'd everything ends in eyed. So if we start talking about triglyceride, I'm gonna actually dig my eyes out of my head. So do you want

Scott Benner 6:12
to do that one? Why don't I? Yeah, we'll do that. Okay, let's start with the most. Because you send me a lot of videos. No, I don't, not as many as you send other people, but for our relationship, like, tell people the one you just sent me this afternoon that you found hilarious. Oh,

Arden Benner 6:28
a kid slap me this newborn

Scott Benner 6:30
brother, so funny. So there's like a little boy, his dad's holding him, like under his left arm, or in his left arm. This kid's, what, two, maybe two.

Arden Benner 6:39
He looks like two years old, okay, but he's like, old enough to know right from

Scott Benner 6:44
wrong. I mean, okay, and then I don't know how smart is a two year old you want to find out? No. Okay, so the two year olds on one side the newborn, like, literally, like days old, swaddled newborn, right? And the dad's super proud. He's holding both the kids, and the mom's holding the camera, and she's like, be gentle. Be gentle. And then what happens? The

Arden Benner 7:08
toddler just slaps the kid across the face. It's great, but it's like, it's not even that he slaps the kid. It's like, the dad's reaction, that's the part you found funny. The dad's reaction, like, when he slapped the kid, I was like, that's hilarious, but when the dad reacted to it, I was just like, oh, like, Wow, that must suck. Having kids, you know,

Scott Benner 7:29
can you describe what made you laugh? His reaction, just the shock that he had just It struck because you thought it was hilarious. Yeah,

Arden Benner 7:37
it's the way the dad reacts to it. But I don't know. The point is, you don't see any of this stuff actually happen.

Scott Benner 7:43
You've never seen a little baby slap its newborn brother across the face. Like, really, it's like, Bitch slap the kid. But

Arden Benner 7:50
it's like a compilation of like, 30 videos that sort of thing happening. Or, like, every day I open my phone and I see a video of some crazy thing that has happened. Like, I don't know, someone falls on the sidewalk, or something happens like this, or there's a fight that breaks out, or some like, just something crazy, whether it's funny or mean or whatever. I don't see any of that

Scott Benner 8:10
tractor trailer tire comes off across the highway, bounces 50 feet, jumps an embankment, goes 100 more feet, runs down, a guy just flattens him, and you're like, I've never once seen anything like that in my life. Well, I don't want that to happen, but I'm just saying, like, I didn't say you wanted any of it to happen. I'm just saying you've never seen it happen. Yeah?

Arden Benner 8:31
Like, every day I get up and I take the same route to where I'm going, and I see the same people, and it's there's really nothing new that has ever happened. And even if it is something new, it's not like, internet worthy, you know what I mean. So where do all these people come

Scott Benner 8:46
from? And why is there so many of them? Because in that baby slap video that was one of, like, a multitude of different like, Baby assaults, that's

Arden Benner 8:54
what I'm saying. But also, like, you talk to people and you're like, you know, trying to get the vibe of like they've ever been in a situation where no, no one's ever been one of these situations. So where are these people? Where are they forming?

Scott Benner 9:06
Well, how much of this is because everybody's pointing a camera at something now, and do you think it's performing? Do you think even the two year olds, like

Arden Benner 9:15
basal, is this like a Am I certain conspiracy theory? Like, is the internet not real? Is it not? Well, I mean, obviously it's not. But what I'm saying is, like, Are all these videos that look like, you know, real things that are like, happening that are crazy, like, are some of them literally just like, set up by the people who own these companies, this Instagram, you know, put out these funny videos and they're just fake. But there's so many of them.

Scott Benner 9:41

What I'm wondering is, do people act differently when the cameras pointed at them. Like, is this two year old? Like, does he know if the camera's out and you do something, people laugh and like, Do you know what I mean? Maybe I don't know. He slaps that kid so hard. And I'm also noticing, and I don't want to derail this, but I'm noticing in the video that you sent me where the kid slaps the the other kid, the dad, appears to be in his underwear, or some very sheer shorts, and it's making me uncomfortable now that I'm looking harder. Will you let me look? Go ahead and look. Is this? Is this like, box? Is this, like, clingy boxer shorts? He's in right here. He really does whack this kid. Holy crap. Hold on. I'm gonna watch it one more time. He really does whack that kid. How come you find it so funny? Because you you like the more like violent bend videos?

Arden Benner 12:55
Um, no, I think he's just in shorts, and they're like, pulled up because he's sitting down and there's kids on them.

Scott Benner 13:00
Okay, fair enough. That makes me feel better. Why do you like the more violent videos?

Arden Benner 13:04
Wow, this feels like a weird therapy. They're not violent. Just because someone falls and hurts themselves doesn't make it violent. Fair enough,

Scott Benner 13:12
soft where people tumble around and possibly are hurt when it's over.

Arden Benner 13:16
Because that's actually funny. It's obviously a situation that is not set up like it doesn't mean to happen. It's just, like, hilarious. Okay, you know that person, like, feels embarrassment when it's happening, especially when a camera's on them. They're like, you know, like someone tumbled, and they're like, oh my god, like, everyone just saw that, and someone's gonna put this on the internet.

Scott Benner 13:40
You're working your way through the entirety of the situation, like, that's funny, but it's also gonna have the internet. Other people are gonna laugh. Those people are gonna be embarrassed over and over again, etc. All that makes that laugh come out of you. Yeah, all right, I wanna tell you that a two year old knows between 50 and 200 words and has like, basic logic. They begin to understand cause and effect. They know that pushing a button may make a toy light up. Oh, so this kid definitely knows that if he hits somebody, it ain't gonna be fun.

Arden Benner 14:09
Yeah, I know I Yeah. I just learned about, like, language and stuff when you're like, too. Obviously, I don't know enough about it, because I didn't do all the exam. But you know, whatever,

Scott Benner 14:19
I didn't do well on the exam. So you don't know all about it, is that, what she said, apparently, awesome. I've heard other people talk about this, right? Just like, you know, there's this video, this guy's like, backing somebody into a garage, and somebody's foot slips, and instead of stopping, they like, hits the person, like, pins him against the wall. And there are some people who watch it and they're horrified by it, right? Because you don't know the ending of it. I don't know if the guy's insides popped or whatever. Like, you know, you don't know the ending of it. Some people find it hilarious, and some people find it just horrifying, because

Arden Benner 14:52
it's like, common it's like, common sense that if that man is dead, like, it's not going to be on the internet, and they're not going to post it as, like, a. Yeah, look what happened. Hahaha, there's

Scott Benner 15:01
tons of murdery stuff on the internet, though, if you want to look for it,

Arden Benner 15:05
well, I'm sure, but I'm, I don't think it's posted with, like, the intention of everyone to see it and enjoy it.

Scott Benner 15:12
Okay, right? That's for a different reason, like, that's, that's some dirt, like, dark stuff, right? That's the deep, dark web. If you got a, if you somebody sent you a video and it said, Hey, I mean, something horrible is about to happen here, like somebody's head's gonna explode or something like, Would you watch it? I

Arden Benner 15:28
mean, who sent me the video? I don't know.

Scott Benner 15:33
Is it someone I know I wouldn't watch it. Who sent me the video? Fine. It's a friend of yours. But they say to you, listen, this is, I don't know, like a tree falls and just lops this guy's head off. I wouldn't want to see it, is what I'm saying. Oh no, I'd be fine. I think I'd be fine. You'd watch it. I mean, like,

Arden Benner 15:51
if one of my friends sent it, like, I know there's no bad intention with them sending it, like they're not like a freak or whatever, but like, if it was like a random number that texted me, obviously I'm not gonna watch it. No.

Scott Benner 16:01
I mean, obviously, have you ever gotten a random text from somebody? Yeah? Do you answer or no?

Arden Benner 16:09
Obviously, okay, even a random text that you know, that you don't know the person, yeah, start a conversation, act like you are the right person. Somebody

Scott Benner 16:17
air dropped porn on my phone while I was walking through the airport once, did you accept it or decline? I had just heard the story, and so I kind of felt like I knew what was going on. I just hit decline. But that is definitely what was happening. Because you could see in the in the baggage claim, like, a lot of people went like this all at once, so they must have, like, mass dumped it onto people, and a lot of people opened it anyway. You shouldn't do that. As of 2024 there are approximately 7.2 1 billion smartphones in the world, meaning the vast majority of these devices are equipped with cameras. Okay? So nine, it says 94% of all photos taken globally are captured with smartphones. So the question is, is, when you have that many cameras, right? Like, a lot of crazy stuff is going to get caught while people are just videoing, yeah,

Arden Benner 17:11
it sucks to be anyone if you get caught in a video just just anyone doing anything nowadays, like, there might always be a camera on you, even if you're like, in the background of a video. You know what I mean, like you're just, do you think

Scott Benner 17:26
people should be able to video you without your without you saying it's okay,

Arden Benner 17:30
ooh, along, that's illegal, right? You can't do that. Can

Scott Benner 17:34
I just video someone if you're in public? I think you can do whatever you want. I'm waiting for your answer, but then I have more thought about

Arden Benner 17:41
it. I honestly, honestly in public, like, I think it's, I think it's fine, but like, someone comes up to you like, Hey, don't do that. Then just stop. I don't know. But no, people are stupid, so I don't know. Do

Scott Benner 17:56
you know the videos where people, like, they'll go to, I don't know. Like the courthouse in their town, it's public property. They'll stand outside and they'll film things until they can get, like, an official or a cop to come out and be like, Hey, what are you doing? And then they start a fight with that person on purpose. No, you've never seen a video like that cop walks up, goes, Hey, man, you know the people called from inside. They're it's freaking them out that you're out here videoing the building what's going on. And the guy responds back and goes, I don't have to tell you, this is public property and like is starts that fight on purpose. You've never seen one of those. No, this is a very common way to get views on the internet from old men, apparently, not from me. Just gonna tell you that the people who make those videos, I hope they fall on a fork multiple times where probably in the belly, it'd be nice and, like, in the leg, yeah, I don't want him to die. I just want it to be unpleasant. You're gonna say, like, up the answer or something. I find those videos upsetting. I've

Arden Benner 18:53
never seen that. No, really, I don't like you're the type of person to like. If something annoys you on the internet, you like, watch it more, and then the content feeds it to you more. And then you're like, Oh, these people are so annoying. They're so stupid. But like, if I see something on the internet I think is annoying, I just go past it.

Scott Benner 19:09
I want to say, I don't see them every day. I've seen them in the past, and I find them particularly annoying.

Arden Benner 19:13
You're more susceptible to watch something that you're annoyed by than I am. Like, what anything or like. If you find a person to be annoying, or, like, their voice to be annoying. Like, you'll watch the video longer you think so, yeah, you do that because you're because you want to complain about it. I do, like complaining, yeah, but I just, like, would be like, Oh, this really annoys me. And I just go to the next thing so I don't see it as much. So

Scott Benner 19:39
to your point about how is it possible these things are happening? I see them on social media all the time, but I don't see them in the world. I have some interesting stats here about videos uploaded to social media, starting with YouTube, around 500 hours of video are uploaded every how often. Five. 100 hours worth of video every how often? You guess two hours every minute, which totals over 700 and no sense. 720,000 hours of video a day go up on YouTube. That's YouTube now, Tik Tok. They say the exact number the video is not readily available. But it's estimated that millions of videos are uploaded daily to tick tock. That makes sense? Yeah, okay. Facebook stories like so a Facebook story, 500 million anything about Facebook video on Facebook, 500 million stories daily, many of them include videos, and more than 100 million hours of video content are watched daily on Facebook. 100 million hours worth of content are watched daily on Facebook, Instagram, 95 million posts per day. A large portion of those are videos. That's insane right now when you scroll and you do the thing, not just you, me, everybody. Do you remember it the next day? Like, if I sat you down right now and said, Arden, under penalty of death, you have to tell me all the things you saw while you were scrolling yesterday. Can you come up with five of them? Yeah, 10 of them probably. How about last week? Maybe, like, one thing I saw, then why do we do it makes us happy in the moment? Yeah, well, no, obviously you get that feedback, that dopamine feedback, right? But once you stop and step back from it, I think about this all the time. I do it sometimes, right? And when I do it, I'm like, why am I like? The entire time I'm doing it, I am like, I don't know why I'm doing this. I won't remember this in five minutes. You complain the whole time you're doing I'm complaining to myself about doing it while I'm doing in my head, not out.

Arden Benner 21:50
I know. I know that's what I'm saying. And then you do it longer, and when you you like to complain about already, you already want to complain about scrolling. And then you extra want to complain about something you don't like. So you stare at it longer. Look. You're learning a lot about yourself.

Scott Benner 22:03
I don't think most of the things I scroll are things I don't like, though, and now they are. You don't know

Arden Benner 22:09
what I'm like. I have literally been sitting next to you and you're watching a video, and you're going, I hate this. I hate this.

Scott Benner 22:19
Okay, so I'm hate watching Tik Tok. Oh, look, I'm correct. Yeah, you're a hater. There are people listening to us right now who are hate listening? I know that happens, by the way. Thank you, people. Appreciate that.

Arden Benner 22:33
I think that's so funny. Is like people I love, people who comment on other people's posts and just absolutely like, demolish them. Just hate everything about them and like, all they have to do is scroll like, and it just won't affect them anymore. But they can't. Yeah, it's just gone,

Scott Benner 22:51
and you're helping the person who you're complaining to, yeah, when

Arden Benner 22:54
you're interacting with them and, oh my god, like, such idiots. Do you remember?

Scott Benner 22:59
Even, you remember I wrote a book when you were younger, you must remember, Are you being serious? Yeah, you remember that? Okay, I'm setting it up for the people who are listening who might not know. Okay, so the book was moderately successful, like for Hey,

Arden Benner 23:14
next time, can we set it up like a brain in my head? Oh, my God,

Scott Benner 23:17
here's an example of that. Arden, when I wrote my book. How's that? Is that better? Oh, yeah, I remember that. Okay, the book was fine. Like, people who read the blog were real nice. They bought it. It was pretty high on the list on Amazon for a while. And then I realized, like, I was like, Oh, this is the end of this. Like, if I don't do some promotion for this, this just goes away. I've been writing this book for, you know, a year now and working on it, and, you know, a bunch of people bought it, and it's going to be the end of it. I'm not famous. I don't have any marketing I can do, so I kind of put myself out there for some marketing when I realized that the book publisher wasn't going to do any of that for me. By the way, for those who have not read a book or wrote a book, your publisher is generally not going to help you publicize it. So I was lucky enough to get picked up and I did a web interview with Katie Couric, which led to her having me on her TV show, which led to them putting up like a blog post. But that blog post was like on aol.com back back when it was or Yahoo News, maybe one of those, like sites when they were very popular, and it was basically just about the book and about me being a stay at home dad. So I don't even realize that this blog post goes up until one day someone calls me and says, Hey, your book is like number 50 on Amazon. Like, I don't mean like in parenting books or comedy books or lifestyle it was the 50 most popular book being purchased on Amazon. And I was like, oh my god, this is it? Like, you know what I mean, I've made it. But it turns out that's not what was happening. What was happening was you and J K Rowling, oh yeah, right. Well, what was actually happening was, is that in the comment section of this, like Yahoo article. So people were arguing about whether or not I was gay. Do you know this? No, okay, so it was me and mom. So the argument was this, look, in fairness, this was 2013 and I had been a stay at home, dad for 13 years already, but when I started being a stay at home dad in 2000 it was an incredibly uncommon thing, right? And so the argument was, either, if he's staying home with his kids, he's gay and doesn't know it, his wife is married to a gay guy and she's not sure of it, or the argument was, hey, this is a guy who's in touch and, like, comfortable taking care of his kids, and this is great, and we should, like, you know, feel good about this. Well, those two people, not two people, but those two opinions, they argued with each other non stop. And the side effect of that was people were buying the book so you can bitch and moan and argue in comments and call me like a bad podcast. Or do it really does just help me like so for every person who hears somebody go, like that, podcast sucks. There's 10 people who go, huh? I'll go check it out. So you're really doing

Arden Benner 26:10
the back and forth comments kind of sound like our 2024, presidential debate.

Scott Benner 26:14
It sounds like any debate. Honestly, I have an opinion. I think a thing, I have an opinion. I think a thing, you're wrong. You're wrong. You know, in the argument between us and them, everybody thinks they're us and everyone else is them. So they just argued. They they drove that book sales for months. It was awesome. I wish they would still be arguing about it. And

Arden Benner 26:35
what do you make now? 41 cents a year off of

Scott Benner 26:38
it. I don't make any money off that book ever like I've never got I got. I got paid initially to write it, and I never made another dollar after that. It is not a reasonable way to make money if you're not famous, if you're famous, it's different. I did get one, a one time payment to write the book. I think it was $5,000 that's all, yes, and then it took me six months to write the book. So yeah, I

Arden Benner 27:03
remember I used to get kicked out of the house for being too loud, exactly in my own living room. I was in my own living room after school, and I'd get told I was being too loud, which was crazy work. After a nice eight hours at a penitentiary, I think you mispronounced penitentiary. And wait, are you sure? I think so? How much? How did you just say it? Penetent,

Unknown Speaker 27:36
look it up. Look up.

Scott Benner 27:38
You're definitely wrong. I'm doing. I'm gonna find out how much I got paid an hour to write the book, keeping in mind, this is pre tax money. So I wrote the book. Took me six months. I worked at like a regular, 40 hour work week. I made $5.21 an hour for six months to write the book. So I could have made more money, I guess slinging fries back then

Arden Benner 28:03
probably what you can do at McDonald's. Yes, Donald Trump,

Scott Benner 28:07
we all learned that yesterday, that there's a What was our big takeaway, the people who make the french fries at McDonald's don't use their hands to put them in the boxes. Who

Arden Benner 28:15
knew? Oh yeah. He was like, you don't even touch him. He

Scott Benner 28:19
was so amused that. He was like, so not amused. He was like, isn't it great, like they don't touch the fries with their hands. And I was like, What the What were you imagining? Anyway, neither here nor there. Every day, billions of people walk around with cell phones and right? I mean, crazy things happen every day. They've got to be pointing them at something once in a while. You know what I mean, like, the fact that you haven't seen something like that is all just like, what is it my turn? Oh, you want this to happen. Oh, I want to see something happen. Oh, I am completely confused by you. Okay, so what you're saying is when, like, when am I gonna see a baby? Like, lay out another baby? Yeah. Do you think that if it happened in real life, you'd laugh?

Unknown Speaker 29:05
Yes, okay, you even mean,

Scott Benner 29:11
I don't know, like, don't you think you'd be shocked and just be like, Oh my God, no, no no, I'd start tackling it happened if one of these social media things happened in front of you and you weren't videoing it. Do you think you'd immediately be disappointed?

Arden Benner 29:26
No, I just like want to experience it. You just want to see it happen once. I feel like people my age want to go to the clubs and bars and get drunk and know like I want to see your two year old slap your newborn. Please. Please. Do for the loss of God.

Scott Benner 29:44
You tell people the new pet you're thinking would be the perfect

Arden Benner 29:47
pet. I feel like they know this a monkey. I want a monkey, a Capuchin monkey.

Scott Benner 29:51
So cute. How much video of capuchin monkeys are pushed through your face

Arden Benner 29:58
like the only thing that comes. Up on my phone, our capuchin monkeys, but they're always doing some crazy task. What do you mean? Like they're showering, or they're like, lifting weights, or they're like, smoking a joint, or, like, I don't know anything, just they're always doing something crazy. I love monkeys. They're amazing. Well, there are people getting their monkeys high. I don't think they're actually smoking a joint, but like there's a joint in their mouth. But listen, we should get one. Capuchins

Scott Benner 30:24
are highly intelligent, social animals. They need constant mental stimulation, interaction and enrichment. Without this, they can become bored, frustrated and aggressive. They live for 30 to 40 years. My god, that's longer than me. They're gonna require long term care and dedication. Daily care involves not only feeding them, but also maintaining a highly enriched environment. As they mature, they become territorial aggressive, particularly if they are not properly socialized, and if their needs aren't being met, they'll bite and be destructive. It seems like a bad idea. Capuchins carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans, like hepatitis and herpes, nothing I don't

Arden Benner 31:01
already have. Now listen, what if I brought a Capuchin monkey to class, and I just walked in and a monkey was with me? Would you say it was your, um, what would you call social support animal? Yeah, I would, no, you know what? I'd say it was a student in the class, and then I'd sit down with my monkey, and my monkey would climb around during my exams, figure out what the answers are, come back, point them for me, and we'd leave that's how it would go.

Scott Benner 31:28
Owning a monkey Capuchin is either highly regulated or illegal, depending on where you are. They have potential for harm, and you need a license and permits. There's health regulations. Also. You can't find yourself an apple. How are you going to feed this thing? Careful attention, including fresh fruits, vegetables and a balanced intake of protein, which can be challenging to provide consistently. I want one. Okay, now if you you could support one, like in an in a zoo or something.

Arden Benner 31:56
Oh, I want my own. I wanted to sit next to me, and I want to do homework together

Scott Benner 32:02
my own capuchin monkey. How? I bet it would be fun for a day or two,

Arden Benner 32:09
and he would have all his own outfits and get up every morning brush our teeth.

Scott Benner 32:14
I've asked chat, G, P, T, to offer up alternatives to capuchin monkeys. Says that you might enjoy raising rats,

Arden Benner 32:23
no ferrets, no sugar gliders. On your note, that means that's it sounds. That sounds sexual.

Scott Benner 32:31
It really does, doesn't it? Tiny, nocturnal. Marsupials are social animals that can bond closely with their owners, that need specialized care, but are much easier to handle than a monkey. Guinea pigs. Para I want a monkey. I want a monkey. Hold on, there might be something on the list. Parakeets, no cockatiels. Love Birds. You don't even know what a cockatiel is, right? I do, but I want a monkey. My friend Mike's mom had cockatiels when you're growing up. How about a turtle?

Arden Benner 32:57
I feel like I said four times that I want a monkey, bearded dragon. This is crazy. You know when Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, when veroca saw it's like, Daddy, get me that squirrel. And then he goes, and then he falls down the hole. Then she goes to get the squirrel, and she falls down the hole, and they throw nuts at her, or whatever. That's how I feel right now. Get me a Capuchin monkey. All

Scott Benner 33:20
right. This also says leopard geckos, bearded dragons, beta fish, a pre but a praying mantis.

Arden Benner 33:26
I want a Capuchin monkey. Okay,

Scott Benner 33:30
jeez, not a tarantula or a hermit crab. Oh, all right, that was the list of things that you might have enjoyed instead of a monkey. Yeah, I don't want any of them. Praying Mantis for someone who wants something truly different. Mantises are fascinating to observe. They are low maintenance, but require careful handling. Oh, my God,

Arden Benner 33:49
I'd definitely kill that thing by accident, like at least four days. Wait,

Scott Benner 33:54
I don't think you touch it. You just put it in occasion to leave it there. Well,

Arden Benner 33:57
I want to touch the animal that I'm Oh, I want to hug it. I want to hug the animal. You're

Scott Benner 34:01
definitely gonna not want a praying mantis, then, or a beta fish. I do think you might. Oh, she got a Capuchin monkey. I think you would enjoy a bearded dragon. No, I want a monkey. I also think Mom would, too. No one is listening to me. This is crazy. You're not getting a monkey out. What does, what does it cost? Like, $500 that did you really? Yeah, pardon, I see here 5000 to $10,000

Unknown Speaker 34:31
No, I saw 500 just 600 gonna

Scott Benner 34:33
cost $2,500 to set it up, about $100 a month in diet, about $1,000 a year in vet care, and you're getting at least $100 a month in like enrichment toys, plus hundreds of Wait, hundreds to 1000s of dollars for permits and licenses. Who do you think's paying for all this? Mom, now listen, we should get one. Is that really what you want to say? Like,

Arden Benner 34:57
we could be our own. Curious George.

Scott Benner 35:02
That's not a Capuchin monkey. That's a whatever. He's a monkey, isn't he climbs around. Did they call him a monkey in the show? Is he not a monkey? He's a monkey. He's not a chimpanzee. No, hold on a second. Is Curious George a chimp? Oh, he's a monkey, by the way. How old is Curious George? The story?

Arden Benner 35:29
Oh, like, how many years ago Did it come out? Yep, 2775

Scott Benner 35:33
years ago. Oh, I was off. George is a monkey. Okay, the series refers to George is a monkey, but he lacks a tail, which would indicate that he is a Barbary Macaw, macho or chimpanzee. George is probably a chimpanzee, since he is from Africa. No, he's most likely. He's most likely referred to as a monkey, so younger children can relate to him. Why would that make him more relatable? Why would they lie to me about Curious George being a monkey. That movie's good. The soundtrack is awesome. She doesn't even look like a chimpanzee. I'm just telling you what I read.

Unknown Speaker 36:10
Oh so adorable. Who's

Scott Benner 36:12
the guy on the is it Jack Johnson that wrote those songs for the Curious George movie? I have to say, conversation. Yeah. That one I well done. Jack. I don't know anything else you've done. Yeah, yes, you do. We listen to his. It's what is it his? What is it discography? What is that? What is the word discography? Is that the word? I mean, that is the word, yeah, yeah. Okay. What's the most viewed Social Media Video? Are you still looking at monkeys? You're

Arden Benner 36:42
so cute. Yeah, the most viewed social media video, when Charlie Bit My Finger,

Scott Benner 36:48
it's I'll give you three guesses. I'll see where Charlie comes up on the list. Oh,

Arden Benner 36:53
because we're talking about monkeys. Is it the Harambe video,

Scott Benner 36:58
no. Charlie Bit My Finger. Is number seven. It has so I was close. It has been viewed 120, 8 million times. Is it a music video? Baby shark dance? Are you serious? Pink Fong, Baby shark kids, songs and stories, seven, over 7 billion views. Are you serious

Arden Benner 37:22
that, like everyone who's ever watched that should feel bad. The

Scott Benner 37:25
next five are music videos. One of them, you would like, I don't

Arden Benner 37:29
know is one of them? Like shaken off by Taylor Swift? No.

Scott Benner 37:33
Number two is despacito. Oh. Almost how many views? Just about three. 4 billion. 3 billion.

Arden Benner 37:44
Wait, okay, tell me who the singer is, and I'll try to guess the

Scott Benner 37:48
the song. The next one, number three, is Wiz Khalifa. Oh, I don't know shit about Wiz Khalifa, honestly. Then he date that blonde lady that shaves her head real close for a while. I don't know who you're talking about. Okay, that's all I know about him. See you again. Okay, the next one, if I tell you the artist or the song, you're gonna know each one. So the next one is 800 million views. Psy, gang of style, Gangnam Style, that's right, right. Next one is 240, 5 million it's the beebs. Um, okay, wait, it could be a lot of different things. Is it? Baby? Yes, it's baby. Baby,

Arden Benner 38:27
oh, Justin Bieber's also in despacito, isn't he?

Scott Benner 38:30
Oh, you might be right. I think you are right. He does the bad rap in it, right? Or is that those?

Arden Benner 38:39
It's like something about the activity. I don't know. I don't speak that language.

Scott Benner 38:44
So then somebody who, like, think short lady who just ruined a movie franchise. Oh, Gaga. Hmm,

Arden Benner 38:52
what's to her videos? Follow your gut. I was gonna say poker face, but I don't think that's right. No wait, but is it featuring Beyonce? By

Scott Benner 39:00
chance is it telephone? No, it's bad romance. You didn't let me get there. Okay, that's right, we got there. The next one's Charlie Bit My Finger, which is adorable. Been seen 128 million times. Even I feel like that's not enough times. Maybe this hasn't been updated in a while, I don't know. Oh, sorry. Justin

Arden Benner 39:19
Bieber's in the despacito remix. Oh,

Scott Benner 39:22
there's a remix. They were like, You know what we should do? Make it worse. Did you want to tell people that you saw a troubling picture of Justin Bieber? You're concerned for him.

Arden Benner 39:38
I'm not. I'm sure he'll be fine. I think it'd be alright. He looks a little bit like someone who might be on a heroin Benner. But who knows? You know, not me.

Scott Benner 39:48
Since the Diddy news, since the Diddy news, I can't wait to see how that shakes out. So I'll think

Arden Benner 39:54
Beyonce while we're here today. Have you seen that joke that's like, everyone's like. Thanking Beyonce for everything. No, oh, because she's, like, behind everything too. So everyone thinks Beyonce all the time now because they

Scott Benner 40:07
don't want to get, get gotten. Yeah. So like, people,

Arden Benner 40:11
like, post a video in the comments, or, like, just wanted to take some time out of my day to think Beyonce.

Scott Benner 40:18
There's some pretty I can't wait till that all like to shake I actually have to admit, I'll pay attention to how that shakes out. You know what I mean, like a lot of big names have been mentioned, why doesn't anything exciting happen

Arden Benner 40:34
to me? They're probably I play to go to a mental institution. No

Scott Benner 40:38
kidding. So I was, yeah, you know what pops up? First, depression, substance abuse and mental health links. Oh, I didn't realize that. Yeah, it's all about depression. I was looking I'm

Arden Benner 40:51
a genius. I was looking for videos, like internet videos. You were not very you have to imagine, like a normal person saying that without any context. Why isn't anything exciting happen to me? Yeah, and you feel

Scott Benner 41:06
like, Oh, terrible. What are some of your favorite let's end with some of your favorite videos. Do you even remember any of them favorite videos? Well, the truth

Arden Benner 41:16
is that my favorite videos are edits of very attractive men from TV shows. So,

Scott Benner 41:23
like, so I don't get those when you're signing them around. That's good.

Arden Benner 41:26
You know, you can, you know, you can, like, save videos on Tik Tok, yes, all of mine are just edits. Every single I can't think of one video that's not an

Scott Benner 41:37
edit. So an edit is just what, like, like, a conglomeration of, like, video clips of of a certain guy, yeah,

Arden Benner 41:44
or, I mean, anyone doesn't have to be a guy, but I'm just saying, like, well, also, hey, here's what I have saved. You just said handsome men. Like, I don't know, but here's what I have saved. My thing, it's either edits of men, tips for taking the LSAT, makeup ideas, clothing ideas or hairstyles.

Scott Benner 42:03
Here's my DMs with you on Instagram. Please don't DM my daughter. It's a Capuchin monkey eating in a Captain America shirt. It's someone petting the face of a squirrel and the squirrel holding their finger. So they'll do it more. So funny. It's a kid dressed as Dobby. Wait you, you skipped a car crash? Yeah, I because I don't know I was gonna watch it, because I don't understand. It's just

Arden Benner 42:28
like someone banging their car into the side of another car. But someone's like, standing

Scott Benner 42:35
outside, then the old man, like, falls over, like a, like a dummy, right? Like a, like he was not a real person. Is that the one you mean? And then the cops pull up eight seconds later, like this person was and by the way, what kind of car are they driving? It's always someone in a what is it? A Subaru. It's a Camry. Okay, every problem on the street is someone in a Camry, as far as I can tell. Then, yeah, there's another driving one here that you sent me. Guy just walking across the street. Oh, God, everyone's seen that one. It was crazy. Car comes out of nowhere like sideswipes another car and goes right where the guy would have been. You sent me a thing about Taylor Swift's glitter freckles. Let

Arden Benner 43:16
me just openly say that I did not send you anything about Taylor Swift. You asked me about the woman who makes the freckle company, so I sent that photo for you.

Scott Benner 43:24
True enough, I have to put that out there. Capuchin monkey swimming. That thing that says, bro, you're an adult. Just eat the tomato. Was that directed at me? Or do you just find it was funny? No,

Arden Benner 43:35
it's directed at you because you don't eat tomatoes. Let's see. There's

Scott Benner 43:39
a picture of us together. I have here. What is this? Piano Black leather sneakers? What was that supposed to be for you? It was a sneaker company I sent you. Oh, you thought I might like those sneakers. Yeah. But all right,

Arden Benner 43:53
no one answered me. I missed it by the way. I want to just make it clear that I never get responses to these. I'm an

Scott Benner 43:59
adult. I don't talk to people through DMS. Interesting. Dr Doom, Robert Downey, Jr, what? But that's not what you're sending to other people. So like, Would you be willing to share what you send to your friends?

Arden Benner 44:12
Yeah. But did you read the tweet that says My mom is at the end of her life with Alzheimer's 99% non verbal but Coldplay just came on the radio and she looked me in the eye and said, turn it off. By the way, I love Coldplay, but he does not.

Scott Benner 44:27
My mom is at the end of life with Alzheimer's 99% non verbal. But Coldplay just came on the radio and she looked at me in the eyes and said, turn it off. I found that very funny when you said it just, you

Arden Benner 44:37
know. Okay, so like Sanj, I literally me and Sanj just send stupid videos and then edits of men to each other. That's what we're good for. Or have you seen this new trend on Tech Talk? And it's like subtle, subtle foreshadowing, and they like edit it so that, like, you're watching the beginning of the video, and then it like, jumps to the portion of the video where, like, something crazy happens, and then it goes. Back to the normal video, then it jumps back to the like, have you seen these? Like this, I don't have my sound on, but like, Oh, see what I'm saying. If it jumps to the and then I also like to watch clips of the basement yard. Yeah,

Scott Benner 45:16
you love that podcast. They're so funny. Answer this for me, these edits of of attractive men. How long are they like? How much video can you watch of like, a handsome guy, personally, or just like, No, yeah, you how long? Like, how long are the videos? Are they like? 30 seconds.

Arden Benner 45:34
I'll find you a video. I'll find you a video. Find you a good one. Okay, a good one. Sound is on and everything. I'm gonna find a good one,

Scott Benner 45:41
because I'm trying to decide what the length of the video has to be before I'm worried about you. And let me ask you this If, if I Oh, this is weird, because we're father and daughter, but like, if you knew a guy who was like, watching edits OF hot WOMEN, wouldn't you think that was creepy? No,

Arden Benner 45:56
because it's, it's not like, the edits aren't like weird. Let me say maybe I don't understand what here's like a here's like a Peter Parker. One

Scott Benner 46:05
for you. Peter park this is like a video clip from a Spider Man movie where Tom Holland is in class, and then suddenly they're out in the street saving people. And then back to

Arden Benner 46:18
you have to let him speak. You have to speak. Come on. You

Scott Benner 46:21
gotta put it on the microphone. Gonna put your speaker right on

Speaker 1 46:24
the microphone. You're great at geometry. You can do geometry. I'm pick

Scott Benner 46:33
you up next time.

Unknown Speaker 46:37
Hey, strange. You know what's cooler than magic? I don't

Scott Benner 46:41
know what I'm supposed to do with this. I'm disappointed that you watch this. You're missing it. Oh, now it's just a bunch of pictures of him as Spider Man and pictures of him without his shirt on, and then pictures of his face scrolling. Okay, first

Arden Benner 46:53
things. First, there's one photo of him without his shirt on. I would know if there was more. And second, they're just there. It's a great clip. So that's

Scott Benner 47:02
and how long does that clip like? A minute and a half,

Arden Benner 47:06
yeah. But some of them were quicker, like, you know, like this one, is

Scott Benner 47:14
that a guy from One Tree Hill? Oh, my god, yeah. Your

Arden Benner 47:18
face, you look so disappointed while I was playing that I am. But there's also some of, like, you know, things that you might appreciate more. Like, here's just like, you know,

Scott Benner 47:29
Sierra home, you know, is that the sound of music? What is that? It's just people outside running in a in a field with a mountain behind them, like these people that like, travel, okay, but, but going back to Tom Holland. How long was that video? And how many times have you watched it front to back? I don't know. It wasn't long enough. Let's say it's a minute long. How many times have you watched it over under 30? I don't know. Oh my gosh. Okay. And how many guys fit on this list? You know

Arden Benner 47:56
what the funniest video is, the repost of Thor from good boys that I have here that I cannot play because it's inappropriate. But everyone should go watch that movie. He's so funny.

Scott Benner 48:08
Oh, good boys, yeah, that's that movie where those, like young kids, like, had like 12, yeah, they head across their town with like a bag of dildos or something. What is that exactly?

Arden Benner 48:18
I think they have like, Molly on them or something, and the girls were trying to get it back, and then they have to like so it's so funny that whole show is so funny. Invited to recently, my repost have been of Jim and Pam. Jim and Pam edits from the office the office. They're normally Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, but they've shifted a bit to Jim and Pam, or some Derek and Meredith here and there. You know what I mean. This

Scott Benner 48:44
film synopsis of good boys is not also

Arden Benner 48:49
Donald and Marianne from normal people. Okay. Anyways, you can talk now, invite, oh, sorry, I'm gonna stop you again, TC and Schmidt, Nick and Jess Seth and summer,

Scott Benner 49:02
my God, great, great, okay, oh, I have a bubble on that one. Well, he doesn't say bubble. What does he say? A Bubba, a bubba. I have a Bubba like that. You have a bubba. I have a bubble. It's like, I'm

Arden Benner 49:15
going to see my bubble tomorrow. He's like, Oh, a Bubba, I have a Bubba

Scott Benner 49:20
invited. She doesn't react. She doesn't react to it. She looks right through him. Yeah, yeah. She's like, okay, all right, listen to me invited to the his first kissing party. 12 year old Max asks his best friend Lucas and Thor for some much needed help on how to pucker up when they hit a dead end, Max decides to use his father's drone to spy on teenage girls next door. When the boys lose the drone, they skip school and hatch a plan to retrieve it before Max's dad can figure out what happened is that in any way telling me what that movie is about. I mean,

Arden Benner 49:50
that's exactly what the movie's about, but they just leave out like the crazy parts of the movie, the

Scott Benner 49:55
crazy, dirty parts of the movie, where 12 year olds are saying and doing insane things. It. Know? Yeah, I really enjoyed the movie, so please don't watch but what's

Arden Benner 50:03
that? What's that one part where he's like, that's not a good burn? No, it's a good burn. Your dad has, like, like, your dad has two DUIs and has to take the train to work. That's a good burn. And he says it to a kid who's like, 11, oh, my

Scott Benner 50:17
God. But that gives you the same joy is when the little baby slapped the kid,

Arden Benner 50:23
yeah? Cuz it's hilarious. Okay, yeah, all right, well, it's hard to argue with. Have you seen the videos of you know what hope core is? Hope core? Yeah? Hope core? No. It's like people will make videos of, like, hope, like, just hopeful things, and they'll, like, put it all together, and that's like a hope core video. So it's like speeches or something like, you know, someone getting the last shot at a basketball game, someone winning the World Series, like, whatever, and they put the videos together, and it's like specific hope core, okay, but people like make jokes about it and put that word like hope core over videos that are just not like that at all. And so there's like this new thing where people, where people were like kindness core, but it's like the least kind videos I've ever seen in my life. And a lot of them are like from Impractical Jokers. And there's this one, there's this one episode of Impractical Jokers where they have one of the guys working somewhere. He goes up and, like, flirts with some woman, and he asks her, like, what's your favorite color? She says it or whatever. And then they're like, behind the mic, and he has to say, you know, whatever the people that are telling to say says, and they're like, she's black. And he, the guy behind the mic, is like, All right, now tell, tell her what your favorite color is. And then it gets quiet, and he goes, say, mine's African American. And then they, like the guy pretends to, like, drop the bomb, and they're putting like those videos behind other words, kindness. Oh, kindness.

Scott Benner 51:55
All right. The Internet, you guys love it, practical jokers. You guys love it in a way that, like, I never would have imagined.

Arden Benner 52:03
Seriously, this is, I don't, I don't know the world without the Internet. Yeah. I mean

Scott Benner 52:07
television like, you don't watch, like, ABC, CBS, NBC, right? I mean, I see clips of it, but I don't, like, sit down to walk you don't have a TV show that you're like, oh, I have to watch. It's one eight o'clock on Sunday night, or something

Arden Benner 52:19
like that. Bob's Burgers,

Scott Benner 52:23
really interesting. Where can it possibly go from here, like, we went from, like, one hour television shows down to 30 minute television shows down to, you know, 10 minute YouTube videos and or an edit that's a disjointed bunch of pictures of Tom Holland for a minute long. Like, where does it go away after we

Arden Benner 52:41
can't focus on anything that's like, more than 30 seconds long?

Scott Benner 52:45
Yeah, yeah, our minds are, like, ruined.

Unknown Speaker 52:48
But

Scott Benner 52:50
where could it go? Isn't it gonna flip around and go back to long form? Like, isn't that what just happens? Like, things ebb and flow, right? That

Arden Benner 52:56
makes sense. But we're, we're now, like, conditioned to only watch short things, like, we're not interested in things for a long time. So I don't know how that's possible. Like, we've conditioned people to like stuff at a faster pace. What

Scott Benner 53:11
would I have to give you? What would someone have to offer you to delete, a million dollars to delete Tick, tock, Instagram, all your social media apps for a month. Honestly, nothing you would try it. I'm not going to. But like cold deleted tick tock. He never put it back on his phone. He said it made his life better. That's really inspirational. I'm just saying, Maybe you should try it. Maybe you have more time than you think. You do. I

Arden Benner 53:37
do. I'm not saying I don't have enough time. You have even more.

Scott Benner 53:41
I feel like what

Arden Benner 53:43
I need is,

Scott Benner 53:45
I don't know, are you willing to open up your screen time? Yeah,

Arden Benner 53:49
but I think my screen time is, like, unfair.

Scott Benner 53:52
How come you opening it? I have mine. I think it's been up recently. Now I use, yeah, it's been up. Okay, somehow on Monday, I used the phone more than there were hours in the day. That's

Arden Benner 54:06
what I'm saying. Like it doesn't make any sense.

Scott Benner 54:09
Doesn't make any sense. Wait, here we go. Today's Tuesday. It says I haven't been awake this long. What the hell

Arden Benner 54:20
you know why? It's because you're up at like, 12am

Scott Benner 54:22
okay, so it's counting my browser time. That's really unfair.

Arden Benner 54:27
I think that's so unfair because that's like, my, that's my winding down time when I'm going to bed. Okay,

Scott Benner 54:33
I'm gonna scroll down here to, like, break it out. So it's like Logic Pro is, like, something I edit in and something I recorded. I've recorded twice today, so I have two and a half hours worth of recording. So it has me at two hours 21 minutes of logic. Pro, so that doesn't count. Also Safari one hour and 40 minutes. I have Safari open when I'm working all the time.

Arden Benner 54:52
That's what I'm saying. Like you have things open or so it's not, it's not like a fair. But

Scott Benner 54:56
here is where I will and again, chat, G, P, T, 49 minutes. Yes, but I have been on Facebook for an hour. But that's me. That's working. I know people probably don't see that, but here's something that's not working. And I'm 53 I've used YouTube for an hour and a half today. So I'm get, I get my stuff from YouTube as well. It

Arden Benner 55:14
shows me how many times I've picked up my phone today. Oh, really,

Scott Benner 55:17
yeah, but I'm like Instagram 17 minutes, which also was for the podcast. But how many times

Arden Benner 55:24
you think I've picked up my phone today? But also, this is since 12 o'clock AM. How

Scott Benner 55:28
many times have you picked up your pickups? Well, 280 No, 5454 What are you at today? 142 today. I think that's what it says. Yeah. So Spotify eight times, music seven times, messages six times, email six times. Logic, pro five times. Safari five times, YouTube five times. Instagram three, Facebook three, tick tock, three. That was just now. Camera twice, photos twice, settings and finder.

Arden Benner 56:01
I have messages seven times, tik, Tok six times. Snapchat five times, calculator three times. Instagram, two times. Chat GPT twice, music once, settings once, camera once, Find My iPhone once, Safari once, clock once and trio once.

Scott Benner 56:17
You use chat GPT to quiz you on your notes. Did that end

Arden Benner 56:21
up working? Yeah, and I opened it this morning to quiz me while I was walking to class. It Was that helpful. Doesn't seem like it was.

Scott Benner 56:30
Why you got a B? Why did you tell the world that I gotta be 32 out of 40, right on a test stop? Why that's pretty I think that's good. That's not good. That's bad, okay, but if people want to be they could use chat GPT. You took your handwritten notes, took pictures of them, fed it into chat GPT and told it to quiz you on it,

Arden Benner 56:51
yeah. And she gave me, like, a study guide too, and I gave it that I actually think that the downfall was that the questions were worded really complex, and I thought that while I was taking it, and then I walked out of the exam, and there were two girls standing behind me. We were all waiting across the street, and she was like, talking to our friend. She was like, why were they worded like that? Like, like, she doesn't speak English. And I was like, I completely agree with that. Because Holy Is

Scott Benner 57:18
this the teacher who you think is a former addict. No, this is not bad teacher. I like, actually, you like this one? Yeah? Okay, I do think one of my teachers might have been a drug abuser, yeah, but you don't dislike her, right?

Arden Benner 57:33
I don't know her. It's a lecture I like. Have talked to her once, probably I see all right, all right. Well,

Scott Benner 57:39
I had fun talking to you. Hopefully people enjoyed listening to it. I think we it. I think we talked about social media today more than we talked about, like, How come things like that don't happen in front of you? It's because we don't know. Yeah, well, I mean, there's no way to know, but it's got, it's an odds thing, right? Like, I mean, how many times a day?

Arden Benner 57:57
But there's so many people that will post the videos, and they have, like, multiple videos posted of crazy things going on. So it also might be where you live. I could be part of it, like population density, yeah. Like bigger cities like LA and New York have more videos. Maybe

Scott Benner 58:13
I will also say this, there is a lot of fake videos online. Well,

Arden Benner 58:17
yeah, but if you think about it like this, like LA New York, probably more videos there, because it's there's more people, and they're more, like, I would say, like, outgoing people. And then I think, I'm not going to say where, but there's some places in the world, but I think, you know, actually, I'm going to stop myself.

Scott Benner 58:34
Okay, how often do you think that you see a fake video and you're confused and believe it's real. Like never. I don't like if something's fake. I just a lot of times mom shows me something. I go, Kelly, that's stage. That's not real.

Arden Benner 58:47
Yeah, mom, wow. What's not I'm trying to be nice. Okay, she's definitely

Scott Benner 58:51
gonna end up giving our money away to a scammer on the phone when we're 80, for sure, right? Yeah. Do you know I was listening today, apparently, one of the big Facebook scams is Liam Neeson. So they go after middle aged women and older, and they set them up for a long time. So apparently, first of all, there's a ton of Liam Neeson fan pages on Facebook, and the scammers pretend to be Liam. And I heard an interview with a woman today. She said, I was very successful in business as an adult, but I'm not stupid, but I got LED with my heart, and I've lost $27,000 to Liam Neeson. Scans like she thought she was sending Liam Neeson $22,000 for him to bring her to Iraq to be with him while he was filming a movie.

Arden Benner 59:42
Isn't that crazy? I can I tell you something? Go ahead. I could win a $5 coupon and not think it's real, like I have no faith. I'm gonna win anything.

Scott Benner 59:54
She thought she was gonna marry and have sex cruises.

Arden Benner 59:58
I've won. I. Cruises. So many. Yeah, so many cruises. Oh, you always

Scott Benner 1:00:03
get, like, you want to cruise, do this, like that. Yeah, I can't imagine, like, what happens to you at a certain age where you get this email that at some point in your life you would have said, This is ridiculous. Now you're like, Oh, I think that Liam Neeson wants to have sex with me. That's Liam

Arden Benner 1:00:18
Neeson. I actually it's funny that you'd brought him up because I just posted a photo of Andrew Lincoln holding that sign up from Love Actually, and it says he's defrosting.

Scott Benner 1:00:31
I have a question for anyone listening. Let's say you really love Liam Neeson, and you are a person who would enjoy a sexual encounter with him. Would you pay $22,000 of Liam Neeson? Because that's what she did?

Arden Benner 1:00:47
No, I wouldn't pay $22,000

Scott Benner 1:00:50
to do anything. Okay, but you don't have you never did my money away. You don't have any money. But I hear what you're saying. I'm just saying anyway, it's that that blew my mind. You

Arden Benner 1:01:00
could, you could put in front of me all of the men from those edits. Never, ever. Well, I give $22,000 to anyone.

Scott Benner 1:01:08
So if I said to you could have dinner and spend the weekend with Tom Holland and Zendaya and you guys would just be best friends. I don't

Arden Benner 1:01:15
want Zendaya there if Tom Holland, okay, what are we talking about? Why would I want his girlfriend there with us?

Scott Benner 1:01:22
All right, never mind. Then I don't. Maybe I don't understand completely. I mean,

Arden Benner 1:01:26
I love Zendaya, but no, thank you. Only $2,000 I'm gonna get my weekend with Tom Holland. All right.

Scott Benner 1:01:32
This is Arden telling the dumpster boys, or whoever they are, that, uh, what is the name of the basement yard, basement yarn that she'd love you respect, that employees, she'd love to be on your podcast. What would you do if you do, they ever have guests,

Arden Benner 1:01:43
they don't ever have guests. This could be That's why, if I ever could be a guest on that show, I'd screw the top of my lungs. But listen, they do, they do, like do shows, lives, yeah, like live shows, really.

Scott Benner 1:01:57
All right, yeah. So if they but I wasn't home. Would you? Would you sit there and talk and let it be recorded? Yeah, you would, don't they say something,

Arden Benner 1:02:09
they say some like crazy stuff, but they're very when they're about to say something that will get them canceled, they make sure that they pull back a little bit, they

Scott Benner 1:02:16
stop themselves. Yeah, okay, so you could have seen them at Radio City Music Hall, yeah, on October, really sold out, dad, I'm telling you, I wonder how much this cost. There's no because it's sold out. Wait, I can't seem but let me find one that's not sold out, because now I'm dying. We have, like, merchandise, all right. So they're going to be in Phil they were in Philly in May at the Met. Page not found yet. These are all in the past well, because

Arden Benner 1:02:48
I think that they film their podcast in New York, and one of them lives in Jersey, really,

Scott Benner 1:02:53
yeah, oh, wait, here's no one. Just happened in Austin, but it's over now. That's crazy good for them, but All right, I'll talk to you later.
