This week we dive into the strange, fascinating world of superstitions, starting with a few well-known ones before venturing into some truly bizarre beliefs from around the globe. The episode explores classic superstitions like unlucky black cats, knocking on wood, the taboo of walking under ladders, the bad luck of breaking mirrors, and why you shouldn’t open an umbrella indoors. 

From there, we travel through a collection of unusual cultural superstitions. In parts of South America and Spain, sweeping someone’s feet with a broom is said to doom them to a lifetime of being single, while in the Caribbean an itchy palm might signal money coming in or going out depending on which hand it is. Some beliefs are even stranger, like the Irish warning that an itchy nose means a fight is coming, or the Turkish superstition that chewing gum after dark turns it into human flesh. The hosts also chat about customs tied to everyday life and sleep, such as instructions about when to cut your nails, never placing a hat on a bed, reshaping mattresses to prevent the devil from hiding in them!

We wrap up with theatrical lore surrounding “The Scottish Curse,” the long-standing belief among actors that saying the name of Shakespeare’s Macbeth inside a theater invites disaster! Blending history, folklore, and humor, the episode highlights how superstition has shaped human behavior for centuries and how many of these quirky beliefs still linger today. 🪵🐈‍⬛✨

00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:56.560

11
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:00.399
That's okay. We can get new phony suigees. That's true.

12
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:05.120
The phone things are cheap. Charlotte's bringing her pod dog debut.

13
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.760
Yeah, we're sorry that this is a novid situation.

14
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:11.959
Will uh.

15
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:16.799
We will share Charlotte with the world. She's gonna have

16
00:01:16.840 --> 00:01:20.840
her own Instagram account because we're feeling like very extra

17
00:01:21.319 --> 00:01:22.239
pet parents.

18
00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:25.719
Don't have to share it on the story or something. God,

19
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:32.680
her little belly, So Caitlin clearly procured her puppy. My god,

20
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.359
she's so fucking cute. It's the first day I'm meeting her.

21
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:39.599
She's obsessed with Cassie. They all are.

22
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:42.560
I'm pretty sure she's going to try to leave with her.

23
00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:47.359
She's the first person that she's met since she's come

24
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:48.120
home with us.

25
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:53.079
But I'm so honored. I love her. She's so beautiful,

26
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:57.560
her coloring. If you need to see this fucking puppy,

27
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:03.159
go to Instagram telling you she's so cute. Can you

28
00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:06.959
hear it? Yes? What kind of puppy is she? Hala?

29
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:13.719
She's a long haired miniature docs weird. Yeah, I know,

30
00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:16.759
we're like kind of obsessed with them or something.

31
00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:21.360
I guess. Okay, So this is PNW Hans and Homicides,

32
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:25.280
where we chat about true crime, the paranormal, and new

33
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:29.280
puppies and all things speaking in the Pacific Northwest.

34
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:36.159
Which actually ironically also includes Charlotte because she may be possessed.

35
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:39.400
That is true. We'll have to do an episode on

36
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:46.400
puppy possession because they're all possessed. Very serious, very serious affliction. Also,

37
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:50.199
the Pacific Northwest is the PNW. If you are in

38
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:53.439
fact nasty and we do a tarot reading at the

39
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:56.599
end of every episode for a little deeper insight into

40
00:02:56.639 --> 00:02:59.520
our topic, you should put Charlotte on the altar.

41
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:07.360
I might I'll have to be on standby, including ultra photos.

42
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:14.639
Or she almost just spilled mommy's wine, which is we

43
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:18.000
might return you if you spill wine. Oh boy, she

44
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:18.879
was looking at it like.

45
00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:21.919
A whole Honestly, she's done a lot worse to our

46
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:25.000
house than spill half a glass of wine.

47
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:27.879
So honey, it's alcohol abuse.

48
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:34.719
Yeah, okay, where did she sleepy again?

49
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.719
So I think we can get into it now. Okay,

50
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:39.680
I don't know, We're not obsessed or anything. We might

51
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.039
just sit here silently and watch her.

52
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:51.159
Yeah, in that episode, it's just Charlotte like literally put

53
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:53.199
your little puppy nose on the mi like we oh,

54
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:54.840
we didn't say hi, creepy people.

55
00:03:57.080 --> 00:03:58.960
We forgot that part. It's okay, there's a lot of

56
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:02.919
exciting things happen. Yeah, we've got our hands full. Okay,

57
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:09.120
So this episode is about another special date coming up.

58
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.840
Do any ideas it might have been when we recently

59
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:17.759
did is that Friday the thirteenth? Oh my god, it's

60
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.439
like she's a witch. Yeah, we have another Friday the

61
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:24.399
thirteenth coming up? How crazy? I know. I only just

62
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.120
recently realized that, Yeah, did you.

63
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:29.600
Try to did you do another up Friday? The thirteenth

64
00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:31.399
episode out a lot because.

65
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:36.240
Thurday It's matter is there isn't there another one this year?

66
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:39.839
Shut up? I feel like there was like three this year.

67
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:45.480
How No, Mini Friday, there's three other Another one is

68
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:49.680
November thirteenth. Okay, well that so we have a ways away.

69
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:52.560
But these two are like back to back. Yeah, they are,

70
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:56.000
which is rare. It feels like a lot. I didn't

71
00:04:56.040 --> 00:05:01.720
think about this until like last night. I just like again,

72
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:05.519
and then I was like, oh shit, there's another Friday

73
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:08.279
the thirteenth. We have to do something Friday the thirteenth

74
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:11.279
spooky related. I love that for us. So we're going

75
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:13.279
to talk about the meaning of Friday. No, I'm just kidding.

76
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.639
I was like, you, bitch, we just did that. If

77
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:21.079
you missed the episode, it was not long ago. Just

78
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:24.720
go back, yeah, just go back today. I thought it

79
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:29.920
would be fun, though, to talk about superstitions. Caitlin. Yeah,

80
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:34.319
you better answer this right. Okay, are you superstitious? I'm

81
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:39.600
a little stitious. Yeah. I wrote that in and I'm

82
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:43.480
like this, bitch, better fucking answers. Oh, come on, you

83
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:43.800
know I.

84
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:48.040
Knew that one. That's from the office. If you guys

85
00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:52.800
said no, you guys, if we are ever recording and

86
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:56.600
we've had enough wine that I forget that, my comeback

87
00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:00.199
should be I'm a little stitious, Like cut me off.

88
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:02.519
Yeah, you're you know, we're not friends, any I was

89
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:05.399
about to get up and walk out, Honestly, if you didn't.

90
00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:11.120
Honestly, I could totally see an ADHD moment where I

91
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:15.040
just like was not like connecting the brainways.

92
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:17.360
You didn't see the intense stair.

93
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:21.319
I saw it, but I could see a moment where

94
00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:23.800
I might just be deeply confused by it.

95
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:27.040
Why are you asking me? I don't know, I don't

96
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.879
know what is the big deal. But seriously, okay, true

97
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.439
answer though? Are you do you have any superstitions? Are

98
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:37.879
you superstitious? Super at all? I'm not gonna edit that out.

99
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:40.000
I wouldn't.

100
00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:44.920
No. Actually, it's funny because I the reason why I

101
00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:49.480
laughed so hard at that scene is that that's exactly

102
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.639
how I would describe myself. Right, I'm a little stitious,

103
00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:55.959
a little Yeah, that's true.

104
00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:58.560
It's it's very relatable because I think so.

105
00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:04.480
I think most people, even if they don't strictly believe,

106
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:07.199
you know, they logically know.

107
00:07:08.839 --> 00:07:09.839
Probably it's not.

108
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:13.399
Something I really hardcore. I believe in there are things

109
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:17.079
that kind of give you pause. Yeah, but get it?

110
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:25.120
What if pause? No puppy Paul I was. I was like,

111
00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:27.240
isn't there a thing with a paul like a rabbit's

112
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:29.600
But it's not in my I didn't talk about it

113
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.839
in this but yeah, good luck. Yeah, yeah, I wonder

114
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:34.800
why it's good luck. I literally know.

115
00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:39.759
No, that's so crazy because i've I mean, I'm sure,

116
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:42.279
I'm sure I looked that up myself at some point,

117
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:45.120
but I really have no idea either.

118
00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:49.079
Let's look it up real quick. Because they're associated with fertility,

119
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:54.040
speed in abundance. Oh interesting, that's what the AI overview says.

120
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:57.480
It says it could cure gout. Oh why do is

121
00:07:57.519 --> 00:07:58.959
they gout like that? Yeout?

122
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.639
Because you were very incredulous. I feel like I have

123
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:05.800
relatives that would have liked to have known that.

124
00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:09.000
I don't think that's true. Yeah, I don't think so either.

125
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:11.160
I don't think a rabbit's boot could kill it gout.

126
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:15.480
Europeans carried cut paws from hairs, rabbits, and moles to

127
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:22.560
protect against various ailments, including cramps, rheumatism. Is it like arth? Write? Is? Uh?

128
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:24.920
There is rheumatoid arthritis.

129
00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:30.959
Yeah, toothaches. Which toothache stood out to me for some reason. Huh.

130
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:36.000
I'm finding on Reddit and so I you know, grain

131
00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:39.080
of salt, because I have no idea how true this

132
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.879
is or you know, if anybody did their research before

133
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:48.240
posting this. But it says that the rabbit's foot being

134
00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:51.320
lucky actually comes from who.

135
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:53.559
Doo oh that, which is interesting.

136
00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:58.840
I have no idea if that's actually actual, but I

137
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:03.320
could see though, why certain people would steal that from

138
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:09.279
another religion make it as their own, as often happens. Yeah, yeah,

139
00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:12.639
I mean, I feel like that makes sense here. Let

140
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:16.879
me I'm curious and make a noise. It's either they

141
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:20.200
steal it and it's lucky for them, or then it's unlucky.

142
00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:25.519
Or yeah, or now it's bad bad not you not bead?

143
00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:30.720
So what I do AI overview? If she is to

144
00:09:30.799 --> 00:09:34.159
be believed this isn't on the Fly episode you guys, Yeah,

145
00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:38.320
don't worry about it. It seems like that there might

146
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:41.879
be some basis for that belief that it does. I

147
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:45.720
don't know if it is predated by any other cultural

148
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.120
or spiritual tradition, but it does appear that that is

149
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.519
a part of the who do tradition, and I don't

150
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:58.120
know very much about who Doo. To be honest me neither. Yeah,

151
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:00.519
but now I feel like we're oh my.

152
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:04.080
God, we should do an episode on that. Okay, this

153
00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:07.000
is spooky ooh in who do?

154
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:13.240
A lucky rabbit's foot is a powerful amulet used for protection, gambling, luck,

155
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:20.320
and personal success, originating from African American folk magic. Traditionally,

156
00:10:21.039 --> 00:10:24.639
it must be the left hind foot of a rabbit

157
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:31.360
captured in a cemetery oh after, often under specific conditions

158
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:35.679
like a full moon, or by a cross eyed person, by.

159
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:39.679
A cross eyde person. That is so specific, I wonder what,

160
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:43.720
like why I'm speaking of like a crossroads where.

161
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:47.480
Yeah, I want to know the significance and maybe maybe

162
00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:51.759
there is none. Maybe maybe it's something incredibly important. I

163
00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:54.720
don't know enough about the tradition. This is very interesting.

164
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:56.440
I think we might have to dive deeper in.

165
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:59.240
This at some point. My best guess is that because

166
00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:02.519
if your cross eyed, maybe you can see into both

167
00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:06.240
worlds because your vision is like crossed, So that makes

168
00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:09.879
like a magic thing. You have to look into it.

169
00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:13.960
For me, that's interesting, Okay, I'm seeing some very interesting

170
00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:17.600
stuff here, and I really do actually kind of want

171
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:21.440
to look for into this, but again we're looking at

172
00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:25.120
this is the AI overview that you just get back

173
00:11:25.159 --> 00:11:29.879
in your average Google search. But historically, the rabbit's foot

174
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:35.559
served as a symbolic substitute for a human bone, often

175
00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:40.720
from a criminal or someone who died a bad death,

176
00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:45.840
to harness their restless spirit's power for protection.

177
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:50.240
Huh, this is really interesting. I'm going to need you.

178
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:52.360
I don't know why we're putting this on you to do,

179
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:54.240
but I need you. I'm not either.

180
00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:57.120
You're like, I heard something about criminals, so I feel

181
00:11:57.120 --> 00:12:00.000
like this is your this is true crime related. Yeah,

182
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:02.200
I guess this is true crime now.

183
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.759
So we're going to talk about some superstitions today, some

184
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:10.200
that you probably have heard of, and then we're going

185
00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:14.200
to get into some pretty like weird one yeah, that

186
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:17.000
I've never heard of before. Oh, I like it. So

187
00:12:17.080 --> 00:12:21.360
the first one is black cats. Oh and I love

188
00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:26.440
black cats. Yeah. My first cat, we talked about it today.

189
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:30.039
He was a black cat. She does not like cats.

190
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:34.279
She said, there's no cats in this house because my

191
00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:35.320
mom is allergic.

192
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:39.559
So a lot of people when they hear black cats

193
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:43.320
they think of bad luck. Yeah, which is unfortunate because

194
00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:48.440
I'm rude. Frankly, Yeah, it is frank, Okay.

195
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:52.159
Call me frank, because it does kind of freak me

196
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:55.720
out because whenever I have a black cat like cross

197
00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:58.720
in front of me, it feels very pointed.

198
00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:01.120
Right, you get a bad vibe from it.

199
00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:06.120
I think most of the time, I'm just like bro. Seriously,

200
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:10.879
there were so many other places, you know, that one

201
00:13:10.919 --> 00:13:13.039
does kind of freak me out because I do feel

202
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.360
like I don't see that many black cats, That is true.

203
00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:18.279
I was trying to think if I've ever had a

204
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:21.159
black cat in the wild. I'm sure it's happened like

205
00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:23.159
a cross in front of me, but I don't know

206
00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:25.240
that it made an impression on me.

207
00:13:25.519 --> 00:13:29.200
Yeah, it definitely did for me at least one time.

208
00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:32.320
And I'm still here, so you know, did anything bad

209
00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:33.080
happen after?

210
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:36.399
Oh my gosh, it's been years. I don't think so.

211
00:13:36.840 --> 00:13:38.559
I don't think so. Not in particular.

212
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:40.720
I did live with a black cat though, so he

213
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:42.600
often crossed my bed.

214
00:13:42.919 --> 00:13:45.679
I mean, I feel like that's totally different when it's

215
00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:49.279
like a black cat that comes out of nowhere. Yeah,

216
00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:53.480
because I don't I don't historically, just like chill with

217
00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:54.600
like a ton of cats.

218
00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:57.639
No, she is a lit Yeah.

219
00:13:57.720 --> 00:14:01.440
Listen, I want to wish I could wish I could

220
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:02.960
spend some more time with cats.

221
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:06.360
Let's see. So I think we all know that Egyptians

222
00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:09.679
saw cats as good luck. Yeah. I feel like didn't

223
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.000
they view them as like almost God? Yeah? Like sacred

224
00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:16.279
like God's Yeah. I'm wondering if they had a bias

225
00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:20.000
and specifically black cats, or if they just thought all cats.

226
00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:22.120
I'm pretty sure they just thought all cats.

227
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:24.879
I feel like it was very general. I don't think

228
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:29.039
they had I mean, I'm no expert. Yeah, but I

229
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:32.000
don't feel like I ever remember hearing that it was

230
00:14:32.039 --> 00:14:34.039
like specific to a coloring or anything.

231
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:37.559
Because I'm thinking of I have a cat statue that's

232
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:40.559
Egyptian and it's black. It's a black statue with like

233
00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:44.720
gold accents on it. So the Dark Ages? Do you

234
00:14:44.759 --> 00:14:45.919
know what the Dark Ages are?

235
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.480
Five hundred to one thousand and eighty.

236
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:52.159
That's a lot of dark ages. Yeah, only five hundred

237
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:55.840
years of darkness. Wow. I wonder why they were called

238
00:14:55.840 --> 00:14:58.440
the Dark Ages. Maybe, well, let's not look it up now,

239
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:01.679
but like that's maybe go back to that at some point.

240
00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:06.200
It actually says, right, Okay, why why were they?

241
00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:14.399
The Dark Ages characterized by a often debated decline in literacy, urbanization,

242
00:15:14.840 --> 00:15:19.720
and central authority. This period saw the rise of feudalism.

243
00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:21.840
So I mean futile.

244
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:30.759
Yeah, yeah, it's feudile, like feud it's different but but yes,

245
00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:34.320
but it applies the feudal system.

246
00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:38.919
It is futile to resist the dominance.

247
00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:44.679
Of the Catholic Church, okay, and significant cultural shifts. I

248
00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:48.320
feel like I can point to two that resonate for me,

249
00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:51.960
the feudalism and the dominance.

250
00:15:51.399 --> 00:15:55.120
Of the Catholic Church. Okay. Ye, so this says in

251
00:15:55.159 --> 00:16:01.440
the Dark Ages because of Catholicism or Folicism, I mean

252
00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:03.919
fifty to fifty odds there. I feel like, so Pope

253
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:09.960
Gregory the Ninth declared dark colored cats and incarnation of Satan.

254
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:14.120
Oh right, because you know which is right, familiars, And

255
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:18.000
but like, how why would you think that cats are Satan?

256
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:20.399
That's just crazy. Listen.

257
00:16:20.559 --> 00:16:22.799
I'm not going to tell you how to pope, but

258
00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:25.799
don't tell the pope about a pope. Yeah, I'm just

259
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:28.600
saying though that, like, if you've read the Bible, which

260
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:32.919
I very much have, just like the cliff notes basically

261
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.159
but like, shouldn't he be choosing like a serpent?

262
00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:39.240
Isn't that like the whole thing? Right? But still, like

263
00:16:39.440 --> 00:16:42.120
I don't know, don't put don't put your shit on

264
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:47.600
nature's miracles. Maybe he was allergic to cats and also asshole.

265
00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:51.279
That makes sense, yeah, because like I'm allergic to cats,

266
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:57.120
but also not an asshole. Mostly, No, just kidding, No,

267
00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:01.000
you really do try, You don't ham like I love cats? Yeah,

268
00:17:01.039 --> 00:17:03.720
I go and I sit and I hang out with cats,

269
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:06.000
and I'm like, I'm going to be in so much

270
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:08.160
pain later, but you're so cute.

271
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:11.920
See that's a true animal lover right there. Honestly, hope

272
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:14.000
Gregory the Ninth clearly was not.

273
00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:18.400
He is my nemesis now, no, but I really think

274
00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:20.200
it was because of the whole witch thing.

275
00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:23.960
The whole A lot of single women probably had cats,

276
00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:25.240
which they still do.

277
00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:30.200
Okay, leave us alone. I do not have a cat.

278
00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:35.200
Yet you live with the cat. The cat she's not mine.

279
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:39.319
She's a good girl, she's across, she's cross eyed.

280
00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:41.920
And we have a bunny.

281
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:47.559
I don't know exactly what that means, but it feels significant.

282
00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:49.400
So if we take our cat and our bunny to

283
00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:54.880
a cemetery, and she kills the bunny. No, no, she

284
00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:57.799
just has to capture it. Oh, capture it, but then

285
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:00.000
she has to take us left foot, it's right foot,

286
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:03.079
it's left foot, it's left foot. Left hand. Wait, I

287
00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:06.640
thought left was evil. We'll get into it later. Left

288
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:07.880
is supposed to be the evil side.

289
00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:12.200
That's yeah, mm hmm, yeah that's I heard that one

290
00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:12.960
time as well.

291
00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:16.079
Also, yeah, you have a thing against left handed people.

292
00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:17.079
Me.

293
00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:20.960
Wait, was that you were Brittany? I think that was Brittany,

294
00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:23.880
but I do ask? I get confused.

295
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:28.599
Yeah, well, okay, so I was like, I've never said anything.

296
00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:32.240
It was totally Brittany. She's like everyone that's left handed

297
00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:32.839
is evil.

298
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:36.079
I mean, she might not be wrong. Do you know

299
00:18:36.119 --> 00:18:39.039
who's left handed? A certain ex that emailed me out

300
00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:42.400
of the blue. Do you know who else is left handed?

301
00:18:42.519 --> 00:18:46.079
Or certain ex that likes to like things five weeks ago?

302
00:18:46.680 --> 00:18:50.440
You guys, lefties are they are possibly evil? Get the

303
00:18:50.480 --> 00:18:53.119
fuck out of here, allegedly stop liking our shit. We

304
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:55.440
don't like you. Get out of here. Welly, unless you're

305
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:58.359
like one of our listeners who's not an ex. Okay,

306
00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:01.279
I don't know, could be the wine talking. Are you

307
00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:03.319
cut that out or and we'll decide later.

308
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:06.920
Yeah, it's fun. I think it's hilarious. Yeah, that is

309
00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:11.400
fucking weird though. Okay, creepy people, let's take a survey

310
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:13.880
if any of you are left handed, let us know

311
00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:15.480
how much of a psychopath you are.

312
00:19:16.519 --> 00:19:19.480
Well, they make up like left handed people make up.

313
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:22.279
I think roughly fifteen percent.

314
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:24.680
Of the population. Oh wow, I don't think they can

315
00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:27.640
all be evil, right, No, I think that, but I

316
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:30.680
would be interested to know. I would say one hundred

317
00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:36.480
percent of assholes are evil. I would say one.

318
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:41.079
Hundred percent of our good for nothing xes that are

319
00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:44.599
left handed are each just as described.

320
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:48.359
That's an accurate statement. Yeah, thank you. Okay, I'm all

321
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:52.640
about responsible reporting. Okay, moving on. You know they burnt

322
00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:56.880
the black cats and bonfires is not fucked up. I

323
00:19:57.039 --> 00:20:01.359
just read that just now. Oh no, oh sweet, do

324
00:20:01.440 --> 00:20:03.359
you need a minute. Oh okay, So they did it

325
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:06.599
on Holy Days, which is extra fucked up. I don't know.

326
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:11.880
Shrove trove Tuesday? What's that? Wait? Trove? It's a shrove?

327
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:16.000
Is it? It's s h r o V? Okay I

328
00:20:16.119 --> 00:20:19.440
just pronounced it as trove. No, no, no, I just wasn't sure.

329
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:22.359
I heard it right. It's a Shrove Tuesday, the first

330
00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:26.559
Sunday of Lent in Easter, they would have bonfires and

331
00:20:26.599 --> 00:20:29.319
fucking burn black cats because they thought they were Satan.

332
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:33.480
That's fucked well, that's why, because it's Eastern I know.

333
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:38.880
Yeah, I honestly, I don't think Jesus would. I don't

334
00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:42.079
think he would approve of burning innocent black cats.

335
00:20:42.160 --> 00:20:46.079
Unless the whole trick was that, like cut up. No,

336
00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:49.680
they get to do a black cat fashion show pagans

337
00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:50.680
for Jesus.

338
00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:54.720
I love that. Yeah, it's my new platform.

339
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:59.400
I've literally never heard of Shrove Tuesday.

340
00:20:59.519 --> 00:20:59.720
Yes.

341
00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:03.440
And here's what's interesting is I had a coworker that

342
00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:06.960
brought in one of those. It's a king cake and

343
00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:08.680
it's something that they do for Marti Gras.

344
00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:11.319
I had one of those recently. Yeah, I was house

345
00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:13.960
sitting and they went to New Orleans, got a king cake,

346
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:16.400
brought it back, cut me a slice, and I was like,

347
00:21:16.480 --> 00:21:17.960
I want the Jesus. But I did.

348
00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:21.119
I didn't get the baby Jesus in this golden flea saper.

349
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:23.799
Is it supposed to be a baby Jesus. I thought

350
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:25.480
it was just a baby. It's a baby.

351
00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:29.519
Well, I think it's ends on whether or not you're religious.

352
00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:32.599
I think it's supposed to be baby Jesus. I don't know. Okay.

353
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:39.720
Shrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Day or Marti Gras,

354
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:45.640
the final day of feasting before the Christian besting season

355
00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:51.480
of Lent. Oly shit, yeah, interesting, Pancake Day. I've never

356
00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:54.039
heard of this. And it's also Marti Gras.

357
00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:57.359
You get your parent cakes out, as they say, oh smash.

358
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:00.000
I was like, titties and pancakes.

359
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:05.400
Let's go get your titties and your pancakes out because Lent.

360
00:22:05.640 --> 00:22:09.039
And also it's pancake Day and Marty Grass.

361
00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:11.440
But do not burn the fucking black cats as gross.

362
00:22:11.519 --> 00:22:14.599
No one does that anymore. I hope to fucking that's

363
00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:16.599
the baby Jesus in the cancake.

364
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:21.000
No, that's not how I'm celebrating, either Pancake Day.

365
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:25.359
Or Marty Gras. Not cool, Maddi Gras. Oh, okay, here

366
00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:28.839
we go. So because black cats were associated with either

367
00:22:28.880 --> 00:22:31.759
a devil or a demon when they cross your path,

368
00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:33.799
So if they cross the road in front of you,

369
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:38.480
they're blocking your connection to God, to Jesus, to the

370
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:43.680
path to heaven. I mean, it makes sense. When you

371
00:22:44.319 --> 00:22:48.440
are crazy, you know. Yeah? Yeah? Okay, So moving along,

372
00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:52.680
not to bring up Taylor Swift again in this podcast,

373
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:56.839
but the next one is Knocking on Wood. Okay you

374
00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:00.839
know that song? Yeah? No, I mean yeah, it's such

375
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:04.920
a good song. Everyone go listen to it because it relates. Okay,

376
00:23:04.920 --> 00:23:08.559
this is because Pagans used to believe that spirits were

377
00:23:08.599 --> 00:23:11.720
living in the trees, which I think they do. We've

378
00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:15.079
talked about it before, like we've when did we talk

379
00:23:15.079 --> 00:23:18.599
about this when we went to the uh the cemetery

380
00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:22.839
right loan for or not? We might have brought it

381
00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:25.319
up then, but I'm thinking of the hotel we went

382
00:23:25.359 --> 00:23:28.960
to on the ghost tour, the Benson, Yes, yeah, wasn't it?

383
00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:30.480
Was it the Benson Downtown?

384
00:23:31.000 --> 00:23:31.240
Yeah?

385
00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:35.359
Yeah yeah. So she was telling us about the wood,

386
00:23:35.519 --> 00:23:38.839
how it came from where you came from.

387
00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:44.519
It's literally and it's an extinct species, yes, And they

388
00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:46.559
used to think that there was like you could see

389
00:23:46.559 --> 00:23:48.440
like faces the spirits in the wood.

390
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:50.640
So that's what this reminds me of. So when you

391
00:23:50.759 --> 00:23:54.240
knock on the wood, you're asking the spirits for protection.

392
00:23:54.599 --> 00:23:57.119
Some people think that the evil spirits live in the wood,

393
00:23:57.160 --> 00:23:59.359
which I don't agree. With and so if you knock

394
00:23:59.359 --> 00:24:02.680
on the wooded scared them away. Yeah, which I don't

395
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:05.559
think any evil spirits can live in something that comes

396
00:24:05.559 --> 00:24:07.519
from nature. That's just my personal belief.

397
00:24:07.559 --> 00:24:11.079
But yeah, as I recall, it was like a very

398
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:16.119
old timey, creepy Bavarian forests. So if it was gonna happen,

399
00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:19.000
or it's like the face spirits that live in the wood,

400
00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:22.880
which is complicated because they can be seen as.

401
00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:25.759
Evil, I just they are complicated. I think they're just

402
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:28.240
you know, like she's a bitch, you know, like she's

403
00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:31.400
just very straightforward. She tells you what she wants and

404
00:24:31.440 --> 00:24:34.400
doesn't want, and that doesn't make you evil or bitch.

405
00:24:35.039 --> 00:24:40.359
It might make you what they call how you say, difficult,

406
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:45.119
just makes you you you know, And we didn't judge

407
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:47.400
you for that. Yeah, no, I mean that.

408
00:24:47.759 --> 00:24:51.960
Uh do you remember that same species of wood? It

409
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:55.680
was literally like on the Titanic. Do you remember she

410
00:24:55.799 --> 00:24:59.480
was telling us that, like there are only so many

411
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:03.000
histories oracle landmarks that you can visit and see it.

412
00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:06.079
And she's like, and you know, if if you could

413
00:25:06.200 --> 00:25:10.440
visit the Titanic. Oh, I'm pretty sure, I can't remember.

414
00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:12.200
I thought we were just back and listen to that

415
00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:14.119
episode again about the Benson Hotel.

416
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:18.880
Everyone should I know, I remember you comparing it to

417
00:25:18.960 --> 00:25:22.279
the look of the Titanic, and then the Titanic somehow

418
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:28.640
came up, so maybe there. Yeah. Interesting, everyone go back

419
00:25:28.680 --> 00:25:31.839
and listen and tell us what was said. Yeah, oh,

420
00:25:31.880 --> 00:25:34.920
it just as Christians. They thought it was about the

421
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:38.720
power of like the crucifix, oh, being made of wood.

422
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:41.559
So that's kind of some of the knocking on wood

423
00:25:41.559 --> 00:25:43.160
comes from. But I feel like that's kind of like

424
00:25:43.240 --> 00:25:47.640
they just stole something again from the Pagans and try

425
00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:48.400
to make it their own.

426
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:51.640
Honestly, it's like, I don't know, it's kind of like

427
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:53.400
stop trying to make fetch happen.

428
00:25:53.559 --> 00:25:56.519
Yeah, you know, I feel like knock on cross like

429
00:25:56.559 --> 00:25:58.720
if you're gonna if you're gonna go that way.

430
00:25:59.319 --> 00:26:02.039
I just feel like, not everything's about you, you know,

431
00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:08.200
like it's giving like only child raised in like a

432
00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:11.799
really wealthy family from the Christians. Yeah, yeah, that has

433
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:15.720
like no boundaries. Sorry, I mean from that segment just

434
00:26:15.839 --> 00:26:19.319
right there, just that little snippet about knock on wood

435
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:22.400
being about the I don't know, maybe it's from that.

436
00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:25.119
I was just about to say sorry to any Christians listening.

437
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:28.039
But honestly, we love you. You believe what you want,

438
00:26:28.119 --> 00:26:32.079
but you did steal. Not you personally, but the people

439
00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:34.720
who made Christianity did still from the Pagans, and that's

440
00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:35.319
just a fact.

441
00:26:35.799 --> 00:26:37.759
I just think we have to get on board with

442
00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:43.640
a few fundamental facts about history. It's stolen land, it's

443
00:26:43.640 --> 00:26:47.319
stolen principles, it's a lot of stolen velor.

444
00:26:47.240 --> 00:26:50.039
My dudes, and I don't mind if we agree to disagree.

445
00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:50.880
I don't hate you.

446
00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:55.039
I mean, we can agree to disagree I'm right, but

447
00:26:55.119 --> 00:26:55.880
I don't hate you.

448
00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:58.119
Yeah, yeah for thinking you're right.

449
00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:06.759
And I don't want you to hate me for knowing that. Okay,

450
00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:09.319
I love you, Love you, no, seriously and all in

451
00:27:09.400 --> 00:27:10.440
all seriousness, love you.

452
00:27:10.839 --> 00:27:11.960
Okay, listen.

453
00:27:12.440 --> 00:27:15.480

00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:33.039
They had a fucking band. Okay, there was a fucking band,

459
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:36.279
and honestly it was really cool because I love music

460
00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:39.559
and I will get moved by live music. Yeah, for sure.

461
00:27:39.759 --> 00:27:42.440
And if there's live music happening and you tell me

462
00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:44.519

Like all right, like that dude is like not unattractive.

464

Yeah yeah, yeah.

466
00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:59.079
Honestly, my Christian summer camp just had like really hot

467
00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:05.359
older college age like counselors, highly pro All of the

468
00:28:05.400 --> 00:28:10.799
girls had crushes on these like very very sweet, very pure, okay,

00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:15.200
very pure, quite so okay, and they all had cute nicknames.

she's married, but I'm not yea.

473
00:28:28.359 --> 00:28:31.480
Honestly, if you saw Templeton, you could get it.

474
00:28:31.839 --> 00:28:33.759
Okay. Oh my gosh. Did you know there was a

475
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:39.000
British children's game called Tiggy Touchwood Tiggy Touchwood and I

476
00:28:39.039 --> 00:28:40.480
don't care. That's not.

477
00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:45.680
I think I did. Actually, I feel like this is

478
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:49.000
accessing a part of my brain that I'm like, you

479
00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:52.680
don't need this for every day. I feel like it's there.

480
00:28:53.079 --> 00:28:54.880
I don't know if I've heard this before, but it

481
00:28:54.960 --> 00:28:59.359
was basically like tag like tager it. But if you

482
00:28:59.400 --> 00:29:03.160
went in touch like the nearest piece of wood. You're safe. Okay, Yes,

483
00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:06.440
I totally have heard of this, and the British still say,

484
00:29:06.599 --> 00:29:09.640
apparently according to this article, they still say touchwood to

485
00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:11.880
this day. It's kind of like saying knock on wood

486
00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:14.799
for us. Yes, yeah, I did know this.

487
00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:17.200
I did know this, and I did know the Brits

488
00:29:17.200 --> 00:29:18.319
say touch wood.

489
00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:24.240
I can't. That's it, touch wood. End of episode.

490
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:31.480
Okay, who knew a superstition would be so spicy? I

491
00:29:31.559 --> 00:29:33.920
knew as soon as we talked about wood, we would

492
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:38.240
just completely go off, go off the ladder. Speaking of ladders,

493
00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:45.000
here's the thing is that I'm I'm much sure married woman.

494
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:52.440
I looked off to camera that wasn't even there. Yeah, yeah,

495
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:55.279
it wasn't even the camera that I look at. Who's

496
00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:57.720
a different camera, Like there's a docum jentary, Hutch, I'm

497
00:29:57.720 --> 00:30:01.440
just gonna pick one that was your like you were

498
00:30:01.480 --> 00:30:04.759
breaking the fourth wall. I was, yeah, Wow, there's a

499
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:07.279
lot of office talk in this episode, and I was

500
00:30:07.440 --> 00:30:16.079
just Jim, Yeah, Halper tang all over this, halperching. So

501
00:30:16.200 --> 00:30:19.799
about them ladders? Yeah, so about ladders. Did you know

502
00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:23.000
it was unlucky to walk underneath one I mean, and

503
00:30:23.039 --> 00:30:26.640
that one I got you. It just makes sense, does it? Why?

504
00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:28.319
Why do you think you know?

505
00:30:28.359 --> 00:30:31.480
If you work in construction, I feel like probably don't

506
00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:33.960
need to go any further. I feel like intuitively we

507
00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:36.680
all understand that you don't want to.

508
00:30:36.599 --> 00:30:39.079
Do that in case you like shoulder bump the ladder

509
00:30:39.079 --> 00:30:40.680
and like knock off someone who's.

510
00:30:40.759 --> 00:30:44.119
Or or someone can fall off the ladder and crash

511
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:46.000
into you, like so many reasons.

512
00:30:46.279 --> 00:30:48.759
But if you're under the ladder, they can't fall on.

513
00:30:49.039 --> 00:30:52.079
Or what if they fall and then the ladder collapses

514
00:30:52.200 --> 00:30:53.200
and it smashes you.

515
00:30:53.400 --> 00:30:56.200
Oh okay, I could see that. Yeah, like a sardine

516
00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:59.599
and a can. Some of it comes from the Holy Trinity.

517
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:04.039
Because a triangle, because a ladder leaning up against the

518
00:31:04.079 --> 00:31:06.880
wall makes a triangle, and so if you walk under it,

519
00:31:07.240 --> 00:31:08.839
you're destroying the sanctity.

520
00:31:09.079 --> 00:31:12.359
I was gonna say, sanctity, isn't it.

521
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:14.599
You're walking right through that sanctity.

522
00:31:15.359 --> 00:31:19.079
I'm just putting all of my appendages through all of

523
00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:20.079
its sanctity.

524
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:22.720
We're desanctifying this.

525
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:26.279
Bitch, even if it's not like up against a wall,

526
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:28.240
like a ladder is always a triangle.

527
00:31:29.119 --> 00:31:31.519
Oh, because it's like it has its own Yeah. I

528
00:31:31.559 --> 00:31:34.440
was just thinking of like propping up the ladder, but yeah, no,

529
00:31:34.599 --> 00:31:36.480
the ladder is a triangle because it has to prop

530
00:31:36.519 --> 00:31:37.079
itself up.

531
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:39.079
Okay, I was like I had to say it so

532
00:31:39.119 --> 00:31:41.119
that I could make sure I was understanding. You were right.

533
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:46.279
So ladders also, I guess they either remind people of

534
00:31:46.359 --> 00:31:50.000
gallows or they actually use make sense. In some gallows

535
00:31:50.079 --> 00:31:53.839
they have people think that the underneath of ladders are

536
00:31:53.880 --> 00:31:57.240
haunted because that's where a lot of people were. Yeah,

537
00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:57.839
it makes sense.

538
00:31:58.440 --> 00:32:03.839
We're died where they were when were they were opening

539
00:32:03.920 --> 00:32:09.119
umbrellas indoors? Yeah, I mean that's just inconvenient and seems

540
00:32:09.160 --> 00:32:12.400
like you're like trying to get other people like what.

541
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:15.240
And or poke out their eye. You're gonna poke your

542
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:17.920
eye out. That's kind of the end of this. Where

543
00:32:18.599 --> 00:32:22.119
modern day umbrellas kind of they just pop open and

544
00:32:22.720 --> 00:32:25.519
they're all wet, They spray the water reads everywhere. If

545
00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:28.079
you're closed, you can poke an eye out. They're dangerous.

546
00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:32.559
But in ancient Egyptian days, they used umbrellas to protect

547
00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:36.200
themselves from the sun. Yeah it's sps, yes, yeah, and

548
00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:38.720
so if you opened it indoors where there was no sun.

549
00:32:38.880 --> 00:32:43.559
It was an insult to the sun god, which it

550
00:32:43.599 --> 00:32:46.799
doesn't say who the sun god is? Who's the sun god? Like, absolutely,

551
00:32:47.559 --> 00:32:49.680
yeah it is. I was gonna say, I feel like

552
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:51.640
I know this, but we talked.

553
00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:54.200
I looked it up, like for the episode I did

554
00:32:54.319 --> 00:32:55.200
Egyptian stuff on.

555
00:32:55.359 --> 00:33:00.000
Yes yeah, yeah, yeah, No, the one is yes, yeah, okay.

556
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:02.640
So it is considered an insult to the sun god

557
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:06.240
ra if you open it indoors, which I mean, gosh,

558
00:33:06.279 --> 00:33:09.279
why is he watching that closely? Listen?

559
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:14.400
The ancient gods are like soups sensitive, They're up in

560
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:17.599
your business to talk about snowflakes.

561
00:33:18.839 --> 00:33:20.000
They're still listening.

562
00:33:20.599 --> 00:33:24.559
They actually did say there was like a small chance

563
00:33:24.559 --> 00:33:28.039
of snow in Portland next week.

564
00:33:28.240 --> 00:33:30.640
Don't open any Actually it was kind of sunny today.

565
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:34.000
It was in and out like Oregon does. Rainy Sonny,

566
00:33:34.119 --> 00:33:37.720
Rainy Sonny, you know how she do. So what if

567
00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:40.960
you open an umbrella right as the sun goes under

568
00:33:41.000 --> 00:33:45.160
a cloud? Is that insulting? I don't know. Does it

569
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:48.680
matter if you're Egyptian or not, or if you worship

570
00:33:48.720 --> 00:33:52.000
the Egyptian gods? Are they still going to find it offensive?

571
00:33:52.839 --> 00:33:55.480
These are the hard hitting questions we need answered. I

572
00:33:55.519 --> 00:33:59.599
could ask my cousin, is he the god of Ra,

573
00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:03.880
the god of Raw, the god? Are they the son

574
00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:04.480
god Raw?

575
00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:08.599
No, but they are half Egyptian.

576
00:34:09.239 --> 00:34:12.239
Oh oh that is so cool.

577
00:34:12.679 --> 00:34:17.800
I don't know how familiar she is with uh, ancient

578
00:34:18.639 --> 00:34:22.360
like mythology like the spirit, because your Egyptian doesn't mean

579
00:34:22.400 --> 00:34:26.840
you know about ancient agents. Yeah, yeah you could. But

580
00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:32.880
if I asked her, I would trust that she would

581
00:34:33.400 --> 00:34:39.760
present me sexual information, make a very convincing power point. Yeah.

582
00:34:39.800 --> 00:34:44.039
That's the thing I don't expect necessarily everyone I ask,

583
00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:50.639
just because they are part Egyptian or part Filipino whatever,

584
00:34:50.960 --> 00:34:55.440
to know all of the answers that I do know

585
00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:59.760
that people that I trust based on like these cultural topics,

586
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:02.840
they would want to present the information like accurately.

587
00:35:03.079 --> 00:35:05.599
Yeah you know, yeah that makes sense. I get that. Yeah,

588
00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:08.800
it's better to ask someone who has a connection to

589
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:12.280
the culture. Yeah, unless you know for a fact, like

590
00:35:12.960 --> 00:35:15.960
this person's a historian, I studied this culture.

591
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:17.559
Yeah, you know, if I was going to do my

592
00:35:17.719 --> 00:35:21.920
own independent research and I felt confident about that, that's

593
00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:22.400
one thing.

594
00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:25.760
But I used to Oh my gosh, I used to

595
00:35:25.760 --> 00:35:28.960
be obsessed with Egypt. Then I just wanted to be

596
00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:33.760
Egyptians so badly. Yeah, it really did. I mean I

597
00:35:33.880 --> 00:35:36.280
didn't I wanted to be like ancient Egypt. You know,

598
00:35:36.320 --> 00:35:37.639
I didn't really know what it meant.

599
00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:40.000
You're like, I would like to time travel because I'm

600
00:35:40.039 --> 00:35:42.280
just like a little white girl in history class. Yeah,

601
00:35:42.280 --> 00:35:46.679
and just like, honestly, America is just kind of like whatever.

602
00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:51.119
I just loved all the statues and the simp what

603
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:54.440
is it, the the symbols they used to write what

604
00:35:54.480 --> 00:35:57.599
were they called hierarchy class, Yes, all of that. I

605
00:35:57.679 --> 00:36:00.400
just loved it. In the cat and cats, always love

606
00:36:00.519 --> 00:36:04.400
cats and mummies. I've always been obsessed with death and

607
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:07.519
so were they. And you're like, Okay, same girl.

608
00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:09.480
I want someone to build me a pyramid and bury

609
00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:12.079
me underneath it with all my treasures and jewels and gems.

610
00:36:13.960 --> 00:36:19.400
My's pretty relatable. Okay, let's move on to the next one.

611
00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:22.840
A broken mirror. How many years of bad luck do

612
00:36:22.840 --> 00:36:26.199
you get? Break a mirror? Does everybody just know that?

613
00:36:27.039 --> 00:36:30.400
Do you know why? People? How many mirrors have you broken? Caitlyn?

614
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:32.760
Not that many? How many years of bad luck have

615
00:36:32.840 --> 00:36:36.800
you accrued? Okay? I asked you why you think you

616
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:39.320
have seven years of bad luck? When you break a mirror.

617
00:36:39.960 --> 00:36:45.360
I have no idea. I'll tell you. The ancient Romans

618
00:36:45.599 --> 00:36:48.840
believed that the mirrors could hold a piece of your soul,

619
00:36:49.400 --> 00:36:54.559
and the soul renews itself every seven years. So if

620
00:36:54.559 --> 00:36:57.960
you break a mirror, it steals a piece of your soul. Oh,

621
00:36:58.199 --> 00:37:00.840
you know, every seven years at renews, so after seven

622
00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:03.679
you're good. But you will have seven years of bad

623
00:37:03.719 --> 00:37:05.639
luck because your soul is taken by the broken mirror.

624
00:37:05.920 --> 00:37:09.079
Okay, cool, that's actually a lot worse than what I thought.

625
00:37:09.320 --> 00:37:11.519
Really, what did you think? I have no idea, but

626
00:37:11.559 --> 00:37:14.599
it just seems so serious. It does seem a lot

627
00:37:14.639 --> 00:37:17.960
more serious than just like, oh, break a mirror, you'll

628
00:37:17.960 --> 00:37:18.719
have bad luck.

629
00:37:18.519 --> 00:37:22.280
But like knowing the reason behind it is like shit

630
00:37:22.719 --> 00:37:24.039
that mirrors take my soul.

631
00:37:24.840 --> 00:37:27.960
It's just so needlessly dark. I know it is, don't

632
00:37:28.800 --> 00:37:31.360
I don't feel like mirrors take your soul. But it

633
00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:35.159
reminds me of two things. Like I think Jewish people

634
00:37:35.199 --> 00:37:38.440
have to cover the mirrors when somebody dies because they're I.

635
00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:43.039
Believe you can get I think that's actually I think

636
00:37:43.079 --> 00:37:46.440
that's common in a lot of cultures. But I believe

637
00:37:46.519 --> 00:37:51.039
when you sit shiva, typically yes, they do cover mirrors.

638
00:37:51.239 --> 00:37:53.079
I don't know a lot. It's just things i've heard,

639
00:37:53.639 --> 00:37:54.800
probably a podcast.

640
00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:59.159
Yeah, I'm not familiar with why that is the tradition.

641
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:03.239
It's because their soul could get trapped in the mirror

642
00:38:03.320 --> 00:38:07.719
or they hear that confuse. That also reminds me of

643
00:38:07.920 --> 00:38:13.039
the show I've been watching. Oh really, School Spirits. Oh right,

644
00:38:13.039 --> 00:38:15.920
there's the thing with mirrors. Yeah, where you can get trapped.

645
00:38:16.079 --> 00:38:16.920
That's interesting.

646
00:38:17.360 --> 00:38:22.320
I think there are certain premises and certain things that

647
00:38:22.639 --> 00:38:28.119
like across cultural boundaries that all types of people might

648
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:33.639
encounter that we all sort of have this almost innate reaction.

649
00:38:33.360 --> 00:38:36.199
To that, Like across all of.

650
00:38:36.159 --> 00:38:41.440
These different cultural and spiritual and ethnic groups, we kind

651
00:38:41.440 --> 00:38:44.719
of have i don't know, like sort of a similar belief,

652
00:38:44.840 --> 00:38:47.840
even if it's like based on sort of a different

653
00:38:47.840 --> 00:38:52.000
god or based on maybe a different custom where it's like,

654
00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:57.480
I don't know, whenever we talk about things that date

655
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:01.679
back hundreds and even that of years, and you know,

656
00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:05.400
obviously this case, it just makes me think about that.

657
00:39:05.480 --> 00:39:08.880
It's like, God, it's so sad that if we really

658
00:39:08.920 --> 00:39:12.239
thought about it, we get so caught up on what

659
00:39:12.800 --> 00:39:17.320
is you know, some distinction almost without a difference between

660
00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:22.320
us and whatever we have decided whoever we have decided

661
00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:25.599
to other, and it's like we have we just really

662
00:39:25.679 --> 00:39:28.480
as human beings, in so many cases, we have so

663
00:39:28.559 --> 00:39:30.000
much more in common.

664
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:33.920
Than we'd like to believe. Nobody knows what a soul

665
00:39:33.960 --> 00:39:37.960
actually is. And that's right, that's common, and it's between

666
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:41.559
all people amongst all people, not between Yeah.

667
00:39:41.599 --> 00:39:44.920
I you know, either either or I feel like six

668
00:39:45.199 --> 00:39:47.960
one way half a dozen the other English teacher let

669
00:39:48.039 --> 00:39:51.159
us know. Yeah, I just I just think that, like

670
00:39:51.840 --> 00:39:56.280
in so many situations where it's like it we're talking

671
00:39:56.320 --> 00:40:02.079
about a topic that there's sort of a a component

672
00:40:02.280 --> 00:40:06.360
of the unknown, it's almost it's just that it's easier

673
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:10.440
to bicker amongst ourselves about things that are of so

674
00:40:10.559 --> 00:40:15.440
much less significance than it is to grapple with the

675
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:19.800
fact that, like we don't understand something that's like bigger

676
00:40:19.840 --> 00:40:20.519
than ourselves.

677
00:40:20.599 --> 00:40:24.400
Yeah, it makes me think of too, they say, like

678
00:40:24.480 --> 00:40:27.880
the eyes or the mirror to the soul. M and

679
00:40:27.920 --> 00:40:30.639
so when like when you're looking in a mirror, you're

680
00:40:30.679 --> 00:40:33.960
looking into your own eyes, and so like maybe that

681
00:40:34.039 --> 00:40:37.639
opens a portal of like the soul into the mirror.

682
00:40:38.039 --> 00:40:40.480
Does that make sense? Yeah?

683
00:40:40.599 --> 00:40:42.760
No, I mean I just I think that there are

684
00:40:42.840 --> 00:40:46.599
just certain things that, like, innately as humans, we feel

685
00:40:46.599 --> 00:40:51.119
like there's a significance there that we maybe don't fully understand.

686
00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:55.760
H And that's I feel like, almost in a way,

687
00:40:55.880 --> 00:40:59.719
sort of a breeding ground for superstition, because we don't

688
00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:04.480
under stand it and we're we're we're grasping, We're constantly

689
00:41:04.519 --> 00:41:07.480
grappling with things that we don't understand, and we want

690
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:10.960
to find meeting. We want there to be a pattern,

691
00:41:11.000 --> 00:41:14.360
and we want there to be a significance. Yeah, we

692
00:41:14.400 --> 00:41:18.599
want things to make sense. Whether the pattern exists in

693
00:41:18.639 --> 00:41:23.639
reality or just in our heads almost doesn't matter, because

694
00:41:23.960 --> 00:41:25.960
we just we want to make sense of things.

695
00:41:25.960 --> 00:41:28.320
We want to label things, we want to compartmental Loze,

696
00:41:28.400 --> 00:41:31.519
we're literally never going to know. Yeah, while we're on

697
00:41:31.559 --> 00:41:34.920
this on this plane, earthly plane. I mean some people

698
00:41:34.960 --> 00:41:38.199
do claim to know, but yeah, nobody else knows if

699
00:41:38.199 --> 00:41:43.360
they actually know, Like right, man, such a deep topic,

700
00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:47.559
I know, unexpectedly. But oh, the other thing it reminded

701
00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:50.760
me of is like cameras, where they would I don't

702
00:41:50.800 --> 00:41:55.440
know if it was because earlier people like didn't know

703
00:41:55.519 --> 00:41:58.039
what a camera was and it was taking a picture

704
00:41:58.079 --> 00:41:59.840
of them and they were like, yeah, they thought it

705
00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:02.119
like trap their soul into the camera?

706
00:42:02.519 --> 00:42:05.159
Right, Yeah, No, I mean I think that and I

707
00:42:05.199 --> 00:42:09.159
can't say that I can recall a specific indigenous tribe,

708
00:42:09.199 --> 00:42:11.679
but that was a pretty commonly held belief.

709
00:42:11.760 --> 00:42:14.079
I think I see that though. That would be fucking

710
00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:16.320
weird as shit. Yeah, if you're.

711
00:42:16.199 --> 00:42:20.480
Seeing yourself like on on something like how did how

712
00:42:20.480 --> 00:42:22.400
did I get into that thing? You know?

713
00:42:22.480 --> 00:42:22.679
Yeah?

714
00:42:22.840 --> 00:42:26.360
And I don't know if because here's the thing is

715
00:42:26.920 --> 00:42:29.719
dating back to that part of history for the most part.

716
00:42:29.760 --> 00:42:33.559
I mean we're not talking about like polaroids, right, so

717
00:42:33.960 --> 00:42:38.000
like what their understanding of like what a camera did

718
00:42:38.440 --> 00:42:39.679
could be so different.

719
00:42:40.239 --> 00:42:42.079
Like you had to stand there for a really long time,

720
00:42:42.119 --> 00:42:44.599
so like, man, just take a really long time, Yeah,

721
00:42:44.800 --> 00:42:48.440
steal my soul? Right? What if I just run away

722
00:42:48.440 --> 00:42:51.400
at the last second. But I could totally see that,

723
00:42:51.519 --> 00:42:53.840
Like how it's like when you're a kid almost and

724
00:42:53.880 --> 00:42:56.679
you're like, how did these people get into this little

725
00:42:56.800 --> 00:42:57.599
TV box?

726
00:42:57.760 --> 00:43:00.239
Yes, I think there's a lot of things that as

727
00:43:00.360 --> 00:43:05.880
children we maybe have a very literal interpretation of. It's

728
00:43:05.920 --> 00:43:09.599
funny to have had conversations with other adults in my

729
00:43:09.679 --> 00:43:13.719
family and realize they're like, oh my gosh, I feel

730
00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:17.000
really guilty for the fact that I didn't explain that

731
00:43:17.199 --> 00:43:21.119
better to you, because I understand how your brain as

732
00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:24.280
a child, You know, your mind interprets that in such

733
00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:25.039
a different way.

734
00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:27.199
My brain was so weird as a.

735
00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:32.000
Child, Yeah, very deeply weird, and sometimes like literal in

736
00:43:32.039 --> 00:43:34.639
a way that I can't really account for.

737
00:43:35.400 --> 00:43:39.199
Oh this is good though, because the ancient Romans thought

738
00:43:39.199 --> 00:43:43.840
that you could negate the bad luck by bearing the

739
00:43:43.880 --> 00:43:46.519
broken pieces, all of the broken pieces of the mirror

740
00:43:47.199 --> 00:43:50.920
in the moonlight. Oh, burying them. It doesn't say where,

741
00:43:51.440 --> 00:43:54.880
but just bury them in the moonlight. Yeah. Does it

742
00:43:54.920 --> 00:43:57.920
mean the full moonlight or just the moonlight in general,

743
00:43:58.239 --> 00:44:00.840
not a new moon because there's no light coming. Doesn't specify.

744
00:44:01.280 --> 00:44:03.199
So it's good to know that there's like an option

745
00:44:03.800 --> 00:44:06.159
for breaking the bad luck if you happen to accidentally

746
00:44:06.199 --> 00:44:06.880
break a mere.

747
00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:10.880
And I like to think that for things like this,

748
00:44:11.000 --> 00:44:16.360
where it's like there's maybe not clarification on some details,

749
00:44:16.400 --> 00:44:19.239
like what is it have to be a full moon,

750
00:44:19.400 --> 00:44:20.119
like what there.

751
00:44:20.039 --> 00:44:22.039
Might be if I did a deep dive into each

752
00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:26.199
specific thing. But I like to think though, in those instances,

753
00:44:26.480 --> 00:44:28.559
it's more about the fact that you made a good

754
00:44:28.599 --> 00:44:32.440
faith effort, right, if you believe that it will work. Yeah,

755
00:44:32.800 --> 00:44:35.440
just as if you believe that breaking a mirror will

756
00:44:35.440 --> 00:44:37.400
bring you bad luck, it probably will.

757
00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:41.719
All of the decisions that we make as individuals, I

758
00:44:41.800 --> 00:44:45.639
feel like, influence our future behaviors if you think about it,

759
00:44:45.679 --> 00:44:50.079
like quite literally, if you believe this, that will influence

760
00:44:50.480 --> 00:44:53.639
decisions that you make and things that you say and

761
00:44:53.760 --> 00:44:57.639
things that you do. So if you believe that to

762
00:44:57.679 --> 00:45:00.320
be the case, how could it not? How could not

763
00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:03.760
impact you know whether or not you're going to have

764
00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:05.760
seven years of good or bad luck.

765
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:09.960
And if you think that that's going to be the case,

766
00:45:10.480 --> 00:45:13.280
you could have that same luck either way if you

767
00:45:13.360 --> 00:45:15.239
didn't bring them or But you're going to see all

768
00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:19.519
of the bad, right, and you're going to filter it differently. Yeah, exactly.

769
00:45:20.599 --> 00:45:26.440
Have you heard of sweeping feet? So if you accidentally

770
00:45:26.519 --> 00:45:30.519
sweep somebody's room with the feet, yes, you sweep their

771
00:45:30.519 --> 00:45:34.039
feet with your broom. Yeah, if they're single, they will

772
00:45:34.079 --> 00:45:39.800
remain single forever. I for one am terrified. Right now,

773
00:45:40.440 --> 00:45:46.360
don't come at me with the broom, say from me, also,

774
00:45:47.079 --> 00:45:49.280
come at me with the room. Do I want to

775
00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:52.320
be single forever? Maybe? I don't know I'm having a

776
00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:52.840
great time.

777
00:45:53.079 --> 00:45:56.360
I feel like you just want to have options. I

778
00:45:56.360 --> 00:45:59.400
think that's true, you know, until you really make up

779
00:45:59.440 --> 00:46:02.840
your mind. I feel like keeping your options open is good.

780
00:46:03.159 --> 00:46:07.119
But I think the curse can be broken if you

781
00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:08.559
immediately spit on the broom.

782
00:46:09.559 --> 00:46:16.559
I mean that feels fair. Hoto on that broom. That

783
00:46:16.679 --> 00:46:21.960
was not planned, That was hilarious. Yeah, just spit at

784
00:46:22.599 --> 00:46:26.199
spit on that broom and you'll be fine. Yeah, Okay.

785
00:46:26.239 --> 00:46:29.199
Itchy palms, what do you think that means? Do you

786
00:46:29.199 --> 00:46:34.960
have itchy palms a lot? Not itchy palms specifically itchy bums?

787
00:46:35.599 --> 00:46:39.559
No, no, actually, and I've okay, I'm going to level

788
00:46:39.599 --> 00:46:41.679
with you, and I kind of like part of me

789
00:46:41.760 --> 00:46:44.719
doesn't want to say until I know what this is about.

790
00:46:44.840 --> 00:46:46.159
But I'm just gonna say.

791
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:48.679
I have had a couple of nights where as soon

792
00:46:48.719 --> 00:46:51.199
as I go to get into bed, the bottom of

793
00:46:51.239 --> 00:46:54.920
my feet is so itchy I want to rip my

794
00:46:55.039 --> 00:46:55.719
whole leg off.

795
00:46:55.880 --> 00:46:59.960
Oh I don't know about itchy feet, okay, but palm specifically,

796
00:47:00.639 --> 00:47:04.320
which I used to get itchy palms because I ate

797
00:47:04.320 --> 00:47:07.920
too much salt. Oh, and so they would swallow up.

798
00:47:07.920 --> 00:47:10.639
And so when I would like work out. My hands

799
00:47:10.639 --> 00:47:14.119
would like saw my palms would be super itchy. Oh

800
00:47:14.159 --> 00:47:16.880
that's interesting. It's very annoying. I have a lot of

801
00:47:16.920 --> 00:47:19.360
like issues, we're very disordered.

802
00:47:19.639 --> 00:47:22.239
Why we're not on camera today, Yeah, because my lips

803
00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:23.159
are having a reaction.

804
00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:24.000
It's fine.

805
00:47:24.400 --> 00:47:28.039
Everything fine not At least it wasn't as bad as

806
00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:31.159
the other day when I looked like a Kardashian. Yeah,

807
00:47:31.239 --> 00:47:35.000
you actually looked like a Kardashian that like, they wouldn't

808
00:47:35.000 --> 00:47:36.679
claim fuck you.

809
00:47:38.519 --> 00:47:42.000
They're like, you got some bad bulltox girls like at

810
00:47:42.039 --> 00:47:42.519
a land.

811
00:47:42.599 --> 00:47:44.719
So I was like, oh, it doesn't look that bad.

812
00:47:44.760 --> 00:47:46.559
But then I thought about it later and I was.

813
00:47:46.559 --> 00:47:49.199
Like, the pictures did not do it just yes.

814
00:47:49.239 --> 00:47:52.199
I was like the pictures, I know, that's like a fraction.

815
00:47:52.559 --> 00:47:58.239
Yeah. So anyway, my lips are allergic to everything and

816
00:47:58.280 --> 00:48:02.880
they swallow up. Yeah, it's fun, but so itchy palms.

817
00:48:03.360 --> 00:48:06.239
It could mean good things and bad things, depending on

818
00:48:06.280 --> 00:48:11.199
which palm itches. Oh yeah, and this comes from the Caribbean.

819
00:48:11.559 --> 00:48:15.159
So the right palm is good. It means there's money

820
00:48:15.159 --> 00:48:19.920
coming to you. The left palm because it's evil, God

821
00:48:20.039 --> 00:48:24.920
damn it. It means that you will owe somebody money.

822
00:48:25.000 --> 00:48:27.559
So I usually have them both itching at the same time,

823
00:48:27.559 --> 00:48:29.840
so I think it cancels itself out.

824
00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:37.360
You're just like, like, do not collect two hundred dollars?

825
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:39.679
Yes, like someone owes me money. I owe someone money.

826
00:48:39.679 --> 00:48:43.320
It's just equals itself, just sort of a steal me.

827
00:48:43.760 --> 00:48:45.920
But if you have one that itches over the other,

828
00:48:46.360 --> 00:48:50.440
you better watch out. Yeah, itchy knows, shut up, No

829
00:48:50.440 --> 00:48:53.679
one knows, goes. What does that mean? I know what

830
00:48:53.679 --> 00:48:54.599
itchy ears mean.

831
00:48:55.159 --> 00:48:59.199
Wait, I think I'm just realizing that I'm really itchy

832
00:49:00.199 --> 00:49:02.159
itchy all over? Was it? She butt me?

833
00:49:04.159 --> 00:49:07.800
I get really really itchy, especially at night. I want

834
00:49:07.840 --> 00:49:10.079
to know if that means anything. I'm gonna have to

835
00:49:10.119 --> 00:49:12.480
look into it, because now I'm really freaked out.

836
00:49:12.519 --> 00:49:13.920
I think it just means you had a long day,

837
00:49:14.559 --> 00:49:17.639
a long it's like stressful day. Got it back, girl,

838
00:49:18.280 --> 00:49:20.400
do you I remember? I guess I have had itchy

839
00:49:20.480 --> 00:49:23.519
knows like on the inside. I don't know specifically if

840
00:49:23.559 --> 00:49:26.760
it means like outside inside it she knows. So I've

841
00:49:26.760 --> 00:49:30.119
always heard the itchy ears means like someone's talking about you. Yes,

842
00:49:30.159 --> 00:49:35.480
I've heard this. It she knows means that you'll get

843
00:49:35.519 --> 00:49:40.360
a fight, You'll get in a fight. Yes, okay. Well,

844
00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:44.239
so if you have an itchy knows you have to

845
00:49:44.280 --> 00:49:46.519
ask someone to slap you and then you have to

846
00:49:46.559 --> 00:49:49.119
slap them back. So technically it's a fight. Oh, it's

847
00:49:49.159 --> 00:49:53.360
slap fight. That will avoid another fight that you will

848
00:49:53.400 --> 00:49:54.840
have because your nose is itchy.

849
00:49:55.199 --> 00:49:58.440
Okay, I feel like this should just be like part

850
00:49:58.519 --> 00:50:00.639
of our ritual. Maybe that should be part of our

851
00:50:00.679 --> 00:50:03.000
intro flat fight.

852
00:50:03.360 --> 00:50:05.519
I'm yes, I'm not having.

853
00:50:05.239 --> 00:50:08.559
A lot of physical altercations, but maybe that would save

854
00:50:08.679 --> 00:50:11.360
me from just like some verbal jousting.

855
00:50:11.760 --> 00:50:15.519
Maybe. Yeah. Oh so I was gonna say, I feel

856
00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:17.480
like this is very irish and it is.

857
00:50:19.280 --> 00:50:21.960
Well, yeah, I feel like that explains why it would

858
00:50:22.039 --> 00:50:22.519
work for me.

859
00:50:23.079 --> 00:50:25.840
My house is that you sat me. I'll set you back.

860
00:50:26.719 --> 00:50:30.599
This one's fun. Yeah, okay. It never put a bega

861
00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:33.800
upside down on the table. Who do you think this

862
00:50:33.960 --> 00:50:34.559
came from?

863
00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:41.920
I have my suspicions. Oh is that the dick joke

864
00:50:42.000 --> 00:50:43.119
you were making earlier?

865
00:50:45.480 --> 00:50:46.440
I want you to beg it.

866
00:50:47.639 --> 00:50:50.320
Oh boy, So the French think that you should never

867
00:50:50.360 --> 00:50:53.159
put a bega upside down then on the table because

868
00:50:53.199 --> 00:50:53.800
it's bad.

869
00:50:53.719 --> 00:50:58.119
Luck to find upside down. So a beget it has

870
00:50:58.159 --> 00:51:01.400
a flat side because cooked on a thing, So don't

871
00:51:01.400 --> 00:51:05.480
put it like with the round roundies side, just check down,

872
00:51:06.119 --> 00:51:09.599
check it. Okay, cool, cool, cool, I assume hey, listen,

873
00:51:10.079 --> 00:51:13.519
real spicy up here points to brain. That's what my

874
00:51:13.599 --> 00:51:16.000
brain thinks. I guess if you cut it in half?

875
00:51:16.519 --> 00:51:19.719
What? Yeah, I was thinking, like if you cut it

876
00:51:19.800 --> 00:51:23.400
in half verdic hot dog ways, you know, like you

877
00:51:23.440 --> 00:51:27.159
were going to make garlic bread. Oh, like if you

878
00:51:27.159 --> 00:51:29.440
put it buttergar bread is bad luck.

879
00:51:29.519 --> 00:51:33.519
I don't agree with this. I'm out it. No, over,

880
00:51:34.000 --> 00:51:35.800
garlic is good luck.

881
00:51:36.039 --> 00:51:39.400
So it negates the Yeah because vampires.

882
00:51:39.679 --> 00:51:43.280
Yeah, but do I want to attract a vampire?

883
00:51:43.440 --> 00:51:47.360
Because no, they don't like garlic exactly. So would that

884
00:51:47.480 --> 00:51:50.440
be bad luck because I want to attract a vampire?

885
00:51:50.679 --> 00:51:58.639
No, I disagree, okay, Stephanie Meyers. So a begette putting

886
00:51:58.639 --> 00:52:02.119
it upside down on the table bad luck because.

887
00:52:02.719 --> 00:52:07.320
The French, because because the French and frenchness of it all,

888
00:52:07.440 --> 00:52:07.880
that is it.

889
00:52:08.800 --> 00:52:12.320
A baker would leave a bag upside down on a

890
00:52:12.360 --> 00:52:16.000
table for the executioner. I don't know why. Specifically, it

891
00:52:16.039 --> 00:52:20.039
would be upside down for the executioner after he had

892
00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:25.320
executed them. Naturally, he was hungry and he would need

893
00:52:25.480 --> 00:52:26.519
a beget I.

894
00:52:26.679 --> 00:52:30.320
Have a lot of follow up questions I have. I

895
00:52:30.320 --> 00:52:34.599
feel like there's so answer curious crossover with well, like

896
00:52:34.639 --> 00:52:36.079
between our genres on this.

897
00:52:36.559 --> 00:52:39.880
Oh that is true. Yeah, I don't know why it

898
00:52:39.920 --> 00:52:42.880
would be upside down. Maybe because so everybody would know,

899
00:52:43.039 --> 00:52:46.079
like this is for this one's for the executioner, don't

900
00:52:46.119 --> 00:52:46.599
take it.

901
00:52:47.199 --> 00:52:50.719
Maybe I just feel like, doesn't that guy already have

902
00:52:50.840 --> 00:52:51.840
to deal with enough?

903
00:52:52.400 --> 00:52:54.960
You know, Yeah, but he's hungry, So like they were

904
00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:59.480
nice sure to leave him an upside down by get sure.

905
00:52:59.280 --> 00:53:02.920
But here's the bad luck bagette. You've already had a

906
00:53:02.920 --> 00:53:04.920
pretty tough day. I have to imagine.

907
00:53:04.920 --> 00:53:07.960
I don't think it's bad luck for him. Okay, it's

908
00:53:07.960 --> 00:53:11.800
only bad luck for anybody else besides the executioner.

909
00:53:12.079 --> 00:53:12.360
Oh.

910
00:53:12.519 --> 00:53:17.079
Interesting, Oh that's why. That's why, because it's upside down.

911
00:53:17.239 --> 00:53:20.599
Yeah, so they place it upside down because for him, advice,

912
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:23.639
it's for that person, it's his meal.

913
00:53:23.960 --> 00:53:25.480
That makes sense. We talked it out.

914
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:30.440
Because the French take food fucking really seriously, as they should.

915
00:53:30.840 --> 00:53:33.320
I have no desire to see the Eiffel Tower or

916
00:53:33.400 --> 00:53:36.079
go to Paris or whatever, the fuck, but I would

917
00:53:36.119 --> 00:53:40.039
love to go to France for a fucking bigotte and coffee. Okay,

918
00:53:40.079 --> 00:53:44.119
this one's from Canada, winn you have to tell us

919
00:53:44.159 --> 00:53:47.519
if this is true. So they think that if your

920
00:53:47.559 --> 00:53:52.239
neighbor brings you food, you would like wash the plate

921
00:53:52.400 --> 00:53:53.320
right and give it back.

922
00:53:53.760 --> 00:53:55.760
Yeah, that's just Midwest ship.

923
00:53:56.480 --> 00:53:58.719
It's bad luck if you do that. Why you have

924
00:53:58.800 --> 00:54:01.639
to give them back the dirty place? Oh No, that's

925
00:54:01.719 --> 00:54:05.400
just a dick move. And I don't know why. It

926
00:54:05.480 --> 00:54:09.920
seems very Uncanadian to me. But also from the other side,

927
00:54:09.960 --> 00:54:12.960
it's like I gave you food, I don't want you

928
00:54:13.000 --> 00:54:15.639
to wash the plate. I want to wash the plate.

929
00:54:16.039 --> 00:54:17.599
So I don't know. I could see it from both sides,

930
00:54:17.639 --> 00:54:21.000
like them fighting over who wants to clean the plate. No,

931
00:54:21.320 --> 00:54:22.800
because they're both so polite.

932
00:54:23.239 --> 00:54:29.239
Nope, as the descendant of depression era Midwesterners, that just

933
00:54:29.880 --> 00:54:32.199
all of my sensibilities are offended.

934
00:54:32.360 --> 00:54:35.920
Yeah, I definitely if I take food from someone, I'm washing,

935
00:54:36.480 --> 00:54:39.400
yeah dish, because I'm a cleaner. That's what I do.

936
00:54:39.840 --> 00:54:42.920
Return the dish dirty. Yeah, otherwise it's bad luck.

937
00:54:43.280 --> 00:54:46.440
Oh my god, Like I would just keep the dish

938
00:54:46.519 --> 00:54:50.360
at that point. No, fuck me, uh uh a, never

939
00:54:50.440 --> 00:54:51.039
gonna happen.

940
00:54:51.119 --> 00:54:52.320
You ain't getting that dishback.

941
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:57.199
No, unless you want to leave like a super Bowl

942
00:54:57.239 --> 00:55:01.360
party or some shit with your dish, and I'm like, listen,

943
00:55:01.400 --> 00:55:02.760
I don't get time to wash that.

944
00:55:03.519 --> 00:55:08.119
You're leaving. The game's nice over. Yeah, yeah, No. This

945
00:55:08.239 --> 00:55:11.639
is specifically like your neighbor brought you food on a plate,

946
00:55:12.360 --> 00:55:16.840
leaves it there before returning it. You don't clean it. Yeah, no,

947
00:55:17.159 --> 00:55:19.639
you just seem I don't know. On the other end

948
00:55:19.679 --> 00:55:22.800
of that, if I was giving you a dish and

949
00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:25.519
you didn't clean it, I would not be offended. I'd

950
00:55:25.559 --> 00:55:27.519
be like, all right, I'll fucking clean it. Like I don't,

951
00:55:27.760 --> 00:55:30.360
I don't care. I can see how some people would.

952
00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:33.280
That just would be so fucking weird. I know you

953
00:55:33.320 --> 00:55:34.320
would never do that.

954
00:55:34.719 --> 00:55:39.079
Have you never interacted Have you never interfaced with another

955
00:55:39.239 --> 00:55:43.480
human that is so fucking weird they made you the meal,

956
00:55:44.519 --> 00:55:47.639
like clean the dish. I feel like that's pretty standard shit.

957
00:55:48.119 --> 00:55:50.800
I'm going to bang my mic stand again, Clint.

958
00:55:50.639 --> 00:55:52.880
Or someone else from Canada. You have to let us know.

959
00:55:53.039 --> 00:55:56.039
I'm calling right after this. Oh okay, yeah, call her,

960
00:55:56.519 --> 00:55:59.280
ask her if this is the real thing. I gotta

961
00:55:59.320 --> 00:56:03.519
ask every Canadian that I've ever met. Yeah, daven Hall,

962
00:56:03.880 --> 00:56:05.119
are they still from Canada?

963
00:56:05.320 --> 00:56:05.880
Can we ask?

964
00:56:06.199 --> 00:56:10.400
They're very much still are they still from Canada? I'm

965
00:56:10.400 --> 00:56:11.000
gonna I'm.

966
00:56:10.840 --> 00:56:13.400
Gonna take Lindsay after this and be like, hey, can

967
00:56:13.440 --> 00:56:16.119
you ask I need you to get in touch with

968
00:56:16.159 --> 00:56:18.679
the red on Wiki guys, and I need you to

969
00:56:18.760 --> 00:56:20.199
ask Josh.

970
00:56:20.000 --> 00:56:25.239
Like, I'm very interested in this because it's not something

971
00:56:25.960 --> 00:56:30.039
I would expect from Canada. No, because they're so polite,

972
00:56:30.760 --> 00:56:33.239
and it just seems so rude.

973
00:56:34.039 --> 00:56:36.679
And I want to know why because there's no explanation. Yeah,

974
00:56:36.800 --> 00:56:37.760
there's no explanation.

975
00:56:38.440 --> 00:56:43.079
I don't like it, to be honest. Okay, this one's fun,

976
00:56:43.400 --> 00:56:47.960
all right. This was mostly back in like the days

977
00:56:48.000 --> 00:56:51.840
when beds were made of straw. Oh, but like, don't

978
00:56:51.920 --> 00:56:57.480
leave an indentation in your bed otherwise the devil will

979
00:56:57.719 --> 00:57:03.119
slide right into those games, those inddations in your bed.

980
00:57:03.519 --> 00:57:06.719
Wow, but it feels like a lot.

981
00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:10.519
I don't know what to say about this.

982
00:57:11.440 --> 00:57:15.360
Yeah, I mean, yikes, I don't know if it was

983
00:57:15.440 --> 00:57:17.400
just a thing to like get you to make your bed.

984
00:57:17.519 --> 00:57:19.800
Oh my god, can you even imagine like having to

985
00:57:19.840 --> 00:57:22.280
poof your bed back up? Because it wasn't just a

986
00:57:22.360 --> 00:57:25.719
memory phone Yeah, it was made of straw and you

987
00:57:25.800 --> 00:57:29.840
have to like poof it back into its form. Maybe

988
00:57:29.920 --> 00:57:31.519
it was just a thing to like get people to

989
00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:35.840
make their beds, I guess, but like that's a very

990
00:57:35.920 --> 00:57:37.360
severe consequence.

991
00:57:37.440 --> 00:57:41.199
The devil will come and lay in your bed, lay

992
00:57:41.239 --> 00:57:41.920
in Wait.

993
00:57:42.079 --> 00:57:43.039
You know what that is.

994
00:57:44.480 --> 00:57:48.840
It's just like I think it's about women again. Well,

995
00:57:49.480 --> 00:57:52.960
I think by and large they make beds. No, I

996
00:57:52.960 --> 00:57:57.760
mean it's against women primarily in more than one sense.

997
00:57:57.880 --> 00:57:58.280
I think.

998
00:57:58.639 --> 00:58:05.199
I think this is yield slutschaining. Oh, when you're getting

999
00:58:05.199 --> 00:58:08.800
the pile driver, you know, right in that good good.

1000
00:58:11.599 --> 00:58:16.840
Moving along. Never leave a hat on the bed. This

1001
00:58:16.920 --> 00:58:19.920
comes from Catholics.

1002
00:58:19.440 --> 00:58:24.199
Where the priest would read the right, the last rights

1003
00:58:24.199 --> 00:58:26.719
for the person who's dying, and they would put their

1004
00:58:26.760 --> 00:58:28.519
hat because they don't want to wear their hat because

1005
00:58:28.519 --> 00:58:30.760
that's disrespectful, so they would lay it on the bed

1006
00:58:30.880 --> 00:58:32.000
and read the last rights.

1007
00:58:32.239 --> 00:58:34.639
Okay, so that's like deadness. You know what.

1008
00:58:35.239 --> 00:58:38.480
You said, a hat And I was like cowboy, And

1009
00:58:38.519 --> 00:58:42.079
then I was like, whose bed have your boots been under?

1010
00:58:42.800 --> 00:58:50.239
That's funny. This one applies to Shania Twain. Always sleep

1011
00:58:50.280 --> 00:58:53.760
with an axe under your bed. That is the right

1012
00:58:53.840 --> 00:59:02.119
answer for cheating husbands. Also for protection against I guess wild.

1013
00:59:01.880 --> 00:59:05.800
Other intruders in your bedroom as a woman. I think

1014
00:59:05.840 --> 00:59:06.639
we can imagine.

1015
00:59:07.119 --> 00:59:09.239
Yeah, it's also They also used to say it would

1016
00:59:09.440 --> 00:59:10.880
cut through a fever.

1017
00:59:11.840 --> 00:59:18.159
Oh my little limp wrisk. Yeah that was a very

1018
00:59:18.480 --> 00:59:21.239
limp wrist. I was like that, ain't cutting through a

1019
00:59:21.280 --> 00:59:22.199
slice of baloney.

1020
00:59:22.400 --> 00:59:26.280
I am going ax throwing next weekend, and uh, I'm

1021
00:59:26.519 --> 00:59:30.039
very bad at it. Oh we're going to show off

1022
00:59:30.079 --> 00:59:33.880
this limp rist ax throwing business. You're bad at it.

1023
00:59:34.000 --> 00:59:37.599
I hadn't done it that many times. I've done it once, terrible.

1024
00:59:37.840 --> 00:59:40.440
I don't think I stuck it at all. We'll see

1025
00:59:40.440 --> 00:59:42.800
how this goes. Maybe I'll take a video. Maybe you

1026
00:59:42.840 --> 00:59:45.360
guys will get to see. We don't know. Interesting.

1027
00:59:45.639 --> 00:59:49.239
Yeah, now I've done it once and uh it's kind

1028
00:59:49.280 --> 00:59:53.519
of fifty to fifty odds where like whatever is Skinndy

1029
00:59:53.599 --> 00:59:58.360
Navian in my roots, I throw it. I throw it

1030
00:59:58.679 --> 01:00:03.360
clean and true, or I threw it like a drunk irishman.

1031
01:00:04.719 --> 01:00:09.599
There is no in between. This one's funny. In Turkey,

1032
01:00:10.360 --> 01:00:13.480
they believe you should never to gum after dark. Do

1033
01:00:13.559 --> 01:00:14.039
you know why?

1034
01:00:14.440 --> 01:00:18.360
I guess I don't. I have a cousin who lives

1035
01:00:18.400 --> 01:00:21.880
in Turkey, and I have no idea why we have.

1036
01:00:21.800 --> 01:00:26.039
To ask them if this is true. Yeah, it says

1037
01:00:26.159 --> 01:00:29.599
because they believe it will turn into human flesh. Well, yes,

1038
01:00:30.039 --> 01:00:33.079
it's giving back back wall anoxyway.

1039
01:00:33.840 --> 01:00:39.599
It's giving unnecessarily dark like why why I don't know.

1040
01:00:39.679 --> 01:00:41.639
We need to ask your cousin in Turkey.

1041
01:00:42.119 --> 01:00:46.159
Okay, I mean she's I think she's back stateside, but

1042
01:00:46.360 --> 01:00:47.719
like I'm happy to.

1043
01:00:47.719 --> 01:00:51.079
Ask, you need to ask. Also, can we give Chassie

1044
01:00:51.119 --> 01:00:54.000
points for saying black bark wall an oxiway just out

1045
01:00:54.000 --> 01:00:57.480
of her memory? Thank you said that? Okay? The next

1046
01:00:57.519 --> 01:01:03.599
one is a right that was published in the Berwickshire

1047
01:01:04.119 --> 01:01:09.199
News in General Advertiser on November sixteenth, nineteen fifty four.

1048
01:01:09.679 --> 01:01:13.280
Oh boy, this is the superstition. But it's a poem

1049
01:01:13.320 --> 01:01:17.440
about it. Okay, cut your nails on Monday, cut them

1050
01:01:17.480 --> 01:01:22.320
for news. Cut them on Tuesday, a pair of news shoes,

1051
01:01:23.559 --> 01:01:28.199
Oh bit on a Tuesday. Cut them on Wednesday, cut

1052
01:01:28.199 --> 01:01:31.960
them for health. Cut them on Thursday, cut them for

1053
01:01:32.239 --> 01:01:37.039
well E. Cut them on Friday, cut them for WHOA.

1054
01:01:37.239 --> 01:01:41.719
Cut them on Saturday, a journey you'll go. Cut them

1055
01:01:41.760 --> 01:01:46.800
on Sunday, you'll cut them for evil. Oh, for the

1056
01:01:46.840 --> 01:01:49.599
next week, you'll be ruled by the devil. So you

1057
01:01:49.639 --> 01:01:52.239
should never cut your nails on Sunday or you'll be

1058
01:01:52.280 --> 01:01:53.159
evil for a whole week.

1059
01:01:54.800 --> 01:01:58.559
I have some bad news about mine.

1060
01:01:59.559 --> 01:02:01.079
When did you cut them last?

1061
01:02:01.559 --> 01:02:04.559
I feel like I frequently cut them on a Sunday.

1062
01:02:04.760 --> 01:02:06.440
I feel like Sunday is self careday.

1063
01:02:07.039 --> 01:02:10.960
You know what's interesting, Thursday seems to be a day

1064
01:02:10.960 --> 01:02:15.440
that everybody agrees is like just good, just good. It

1065
01:02:15.519 --> 01:02:17.599
might have to do with like the planets that rule

1066
01:02:17.719 --> 01:02:19.440
that day. I'm not one hundred percent star.

1067
01:02:19.599 --> 01:02:20.039
I don't know.

1068
01:02:20.760 --> 01:02:23.159
You know what what. I guess you got married on

1069
01:02:23.199 --> 01:02:27.039
a Thursday. You did this bit? Oh that's right, because

1070
01:02:27.559 --> 01:02:31.840
I'm just gonna yeah. Didn't it say something about wolf?

1071
01:02:32.480 --> 01:02:36.559
Yeah? Is it Wednesday or is it Thursday? Thursday? Did

1072
01:02:36.559 --> 01:02:38.840
you cut your nails on your wedding day? No, you didn't.

1073
01:02:39.639 --> 01:02:41.760
I would love a pair of new shoes, so I

1074
01:02:41.840 --> 01:02:46.079
might go for the two day Tuesday. You know, Honestly,

1075
01:02:46.159 --> 01:02:48.400
my self care days are all over the fucking place,

1076
01:02:48.519 --> 01:02:51.559
so it might be frequently Monday that I cut my fingernails.

1077
01:02:51.760 --> 01:02:54.480
Honestly, you just you gotta do shit when you have

1078
01:02:54.599 --> 01:02:55.480
the time, right.

1079
01:02:55.800 --> 01:02:58.519
Yeah. I thought it was interesting though.

1080
01:02:59.559 --> 01:03:03.320
And I I just think it's really interesting because I

1081
01:03:03.320 --> 01:03:06.920
did a lot of research into like what are the

1082
01:03:07.079 --> 01:03:11.719
traditions around days of the week, And obviously when I

1083
01:03:11.760 --> 01:03:14.360
was getting married, I was looking at.

1084
01:03:13.880 --> 01:03:16.280
Like what is sort of the lore.

1085
01:03:16.679 --> 01:03:19.280
Around days of the week, and like what it means

1086
01:03:19.280 --> 01:03:20.519
if you get married.

1087
01:03:20.239 --> 01:03:22.280
On this day? What's Thursday?

1088
01:03:22.320 --> 01:03:27.400
I mean, Thursday is largely I think, and you know,

1089
01:03:27.519 --> 01:03:30.880
every culture is a little bit different. But I was like, okay,

1090
01:03:31.079 --> 01:03:36.360
Thursdays are by and large it seems like relatively we

1091
01:03:36.440 --> 01:03:44.239
agree that's gratuitous, just weird because definitely not a Friday, yeah, or.

1092
01:03:44.159 --> 01:03:48.199
The weekend interesting. Yeah, Friday says for whoa.

1093
01:03:48.800 --> 01:03:52.920
Yeah, getting married on like a weekday actually used to

1094
01:03:53.000 --> 01:03:56.000
be a very very common thing.

1095
01:03:56.559 --> 01:03:58.119
Can you guess how day I'd get married?

1096
01:03:58.159 --> 01:03:58.239
On?

1097
01:03:59.079 --> 01:04:08.719
Wednesday day? Because you humph? I don't think I needed

1098
01:04:08.760 --> 01:04:11.000
to say that, but I did. Yeah.

1099
01:04:11.639 --> 01:04:15.840
So one more are you ready for it?

1100
01:04:16.000 --> 01:04:18.880
The theater kiad of me just couldn't couldn't leave this

1101
01:04:18.920 --> 01:04:29.039
one out. Well, no saying Macbeth in a theater. It's cursed,

1102
01:04:29.360 --> 01:04:31.679
it's curs it will curse your show.

1103
01:04:32.239 --> 01:04:35.639
Okay, And I fully thought it was going to be

1104
01:04:35.800 --> 01:04:37.039
like a break a leg thing.

1105
01:04:37.679 --> 01:04:40.679
Yeah, that does make good luck. Yeah, I feel like

1106
01:04:40.719 --> 01:04:43.320
we all know that, which is like I don't know why,

1107
01:04:43.360 --> 01:04:48.960
it's like opposite day JK. I didn't look into why

1108
01:04:49.000 --> 01:04:52.400
that is, but I do know that's a thing. Yeah,

1109
01:04:52.440 --> 01:04:56.480
this one is called the Scottish Curse. Yes, and so

1110
01:04:56.519 --> 01:05:01.360
apparently this play was particularly accident prom huh. So you

1111
01:05:01.440 --> 01:05:03.960
should refer to it if you're in a theater as

1112
01:05:04.119 --> 01:05:06.599
the Scottish play or the Bard's play, and if you

1113
01:05:06.719 --> 01:05:10.920
accidentally say it, you have to do a cleansing ritual

1114
01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:11.800
before being.

1115
01:05:11.639 --> 01:05:14.159
Allowed back into the theater. Which I did not know

1116
01:05:14.320 --> 01:05:15.119
that part of it.

1117
01:05:15.199 --> 01:05:17.320
I just know you. I just knew you weren't supposed

1118
01:05:17.360 --> 01:05:20.760
to say it. I have heard that before. How do

1119
01:05:20.840 --> 01:05:24.800
they cleanse that? I wonder no idea. How did the

1120
01:05:24.800 --> 01:05:26.239
theater kids get cleansed?

1121
01:05:26.760 --> 01:05:30.119
I mean, there could be a lot of things I

1122
01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:32.960
can think of, but I will say here, you know,

1123
01:05:35.199 --> 01:05:38.239
oh boy, these we weren't band kids, are right?

1124
01:05:40.519 --> 01:05:45.320
I'm just gonna put crickets. Can we get a hand

1125
01:05:45.480 --> 01:05:48.719
check on the band bus them?

1126
01:05:48.800 --> 01:05:57.480
Be freaky love you guys like free Love. We're going

1127
01:05:57.559 --> 01:06:00.280
to do a quick oracle reading from a fresh deck

1128
01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:01.440
that we've never opened.

1129
01:06:01.480 --> 01:06:03.440
Did you get this for me? I think so?

1130
01:06:03.760 --> 01:06:06.840
Okay, we just haven't opened it yet. I haven't been

1131
01:06:06.880 --> 01:06:07.920
here in a minute, y'all.

1132
01:06:08.440 --> 01:06:16.639
Okay, fresh deck, freshack. Speaking of band kids.

1133
01:06:17.719 --> 01:06:21.800
Hey, listen, drama kids are just want to be band kids.

1134
01:06:22.119 --> 01:06:28.679
They are superstitions. Charlotte, send your energy. I think it's

1135
01:06:28.719 --> 01:06:29.119
this guy.

1136
01:06:29.400 --> 01:06:32.920
Do you agree. I'm gonna go with your gut on this? Okay, trunk?

1137
01:06:33.280 --> 01:06:39.880
What's a tree not gone? With stability, loyalty, reliability? Also owls.

1138
01:06:39.880 --> 01:06:43.199
I didn't put it in my okay, so the imagery

1139
01:06:43.239 --> 01:06:46.039
on this is a tree with mushrooms and leaves and

1140
01:06:46.079 --> 01:06:49.239
an owl in a little tidy hole. Oh.

1141
01:06:49.360 --> 01:06:53.760
Owls were part of the There were so many superstitions,

1142
01:06:53.800 --> 01:06:56.679
like an animal, but the if you hear an owl

1143
01:06:56.719 --> 01:06:57.440
at night.

1144
01:06:57.800 --> 01:07:00.199
Which was like everyone hears an owl at night, but.

1145
01:07:00.239 --> 01:07:03.039
Like no, I actually feel like no one hears really

1146
01:07:03.119 --> 01:07:05.360
owl at night, but I've been hearing one recently.

1147
01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:08.400
Please tell me more. It's not good. It's a bad omen.

1148
01:07:08.639 --> 01:07:13.119
That's cool. Yeah, I mean someone's gonna die, but that's fine.

1149
01:07:13.920 --> 01:07:16.639
That's why I don't leave her out there on her

1150
01:07:16.639 --> 01:07:17.280
grass patch.

1151
01:07:17.360 --> 01:07:19.880
By herself. My gosh, because an owl will get her.

1152
01:07:20.360 --> 01:07:24.199
She's so small, you rodent sized.

1153
01:07:24.840 --> 01:07:28.760
Until they hit seven pounds or better. They can fall

1154
01:07:28.800 --> 01:07:32.760
prey to hawks and stuff too, So what's the hawks

1155
01:07:32.760 --> 01:07:33.239
and stuff?

1156
01:07:34.519 --> 01:07:34.880
Also?

1157
01:07:35.199 --> 01:07:37.519
I never sent it to you in tailan, but I've

1158
01:07:37.559 --> 01:07:40.880
been seeing the same group of three coyotes.

1159
01:07:41.360 --> 01:07:47.000
Ooh, that's right here, scary and cool at the same time.

1160
01:07:47.159 --> 01:07:47.400
Yeah.

1161
01:07:48.360 --> 01:07:53.440
Card meaning stability, loyalty, reliability. I think I read that already,

1162
01:07:54.320 --> 01:07:57.599
like a spine. The stock or trunk is the central

1163
01:07:57.639 --> 01:08:02.320
column of a plant which everything branches. It is both

1164
01:08:02.400 --> 01:08:07.000
the support and connector unifying the extremities of crown and roots.

1165
01:08:07.360 --> 01:08:10.599
The newer, softer wood just beneath the protective bark of

1166
01:08:10.639 --> 01:08:14.639
the trunk conveys moisture from the ground upward and moves

1167
01:08:14.800 --> 01:08:18.520
energy created in the leaves downward. The core is what

1168
01:08:18.560 --> 01:08:21.640
gives the tree its strength. Like a tree, your core

1169
01:08:21.720 --> 01:08:26.399
has been formed of past experiences, and you've grown a

1170
01:08:26.479 --> 01:08:30.039
list of your core beliefs. Who you are and what

1171
01:08:30.079 --> 01:08:34.279
you hold dear and what you never compromise on That

1172
01:08:34.439 --> 01:08:38.399
totally reminds me of like your superstitions. This is who

1173
01:08:38.399 --> 01:08:41.479
you truly are. The trunk card reminds you to stay

1174
01:08:41.479 --> 01:08:44.760
true to those beliefs to provide a safe, stable place

1175
01:08:45.000 --> 01:08:49.880
for new experiences to develop. Reflection, What have some formative

1176
01:08:49.960 --> 01:08:53.880
experiences in your life been and how have they shaped

1177
01:08:54.000 --> 01:08:56.640
who you are today? That kind of reminds me of

1178
01:08:56.680 --> 01:08:59.399
like my question of is there any superstitions do you

1179
01:08:59.479 --> 01:09:03.159
believe in? Yeah, that's kind of interesting.

1180
01:09:02.760 --> 01:09:06.079
That it was like all about beliefs and literally like

1181
01:09:06.319 --> 01:09:08.119
knock on wood, we got a trunk.

1182
01:09:09.239 --> 01:09:10.640
I know, that's so funny.

1183
01:09:11.159 --> 01:09:15.079
I love that we did a Friday the thirteenth episode.

1184
01:09:15.760 --> 01:09:20.760
Another one, another one. I copycatted you DJ call it

1185
01:09:21.880 --> 01:09:30.439
so but fact. My mom is su fastitious about the

1186
01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:33.119
number thirteen. Oh okay.

1187
01:09:33.680 --> 01:09:36.119
You know when you go to like a it's more

1188
01:09:36.159 --> 01:09:39.119
in like fast food places, they hand you like the

1189
01:09:39.199 --> 01:09:43.239
little number and take it to your table. They tried

1190
01:09:43.239 --> 01:09:45.720
to handle at thirteen and she was like, oh no,

1191
01:09:45.880 --> 01:09:47.079
thank you, fuck.

1192
01:09:46.880 --> 01:09:51.439
No, give me a new number. Yeah. I noticed recently

1193
01:09:52.159 --> 01:09:55.840
when I was watching Heated Rivalry that they were going

1194
01:09:55.920 --> 01:09:58.319
up in an elevator in a hotel room and they

1195
01:09:59.079 --> 01:10:01.600
I was like, did they good number thirteen? Oh yeah

1196
01:10:01.640 --> 01:10:05.920
they did. There was no floor thirteen. Them do a

1197
01:10:06.039 --> 01:10:07.720
lot of them do I just thought it was cool

1198
01:10:07.760 --> 01:10:11.159
that they in a modern TV show they showed that.

1199
01:10:11.399 --> 01:10:16.199
I just like it modern ish. It's set not necessarily

1200
01:10:16.319 --> 01:10:18.119
in current day, I.

1201
01:10:18.079 --> 01:10:21.239
Mean, not like twenty twenty six, but like yeah.

1202
01:10:21.079 --> 01:10:25.439
Yeah, I mean obviously the TV show like as of filming,

1203
01:10:25.720 --> 01:10:27.760
it's modern, it's like current time.

1204
01:10:28.000 --> 01:10:30.279
And I don't know if that like tiny details. Some

1205
01:10:30.359 --> 01:10:33.359
shows like patch at a tiny detail, but I don't

1206
01:10:33.359 --> 01:10:36.640
know if like if the hotel had a floor thirteen,

1207
01:10:36.800 --> 01:10:39.439
would they not show it in the you know what

1208
01:10:39.520 --> 01:10:42.279
I mean? Or if they're just filming the hotel as is.

1209
01:10:42.880 --> 01:10:45.840
I'm sure, I mean, I'm sure they're filming as is.

1210
01:10:46.600 --> 01:10:49.279
I thought it was cool because some hotels do. And

1211
01:10:49.359 --> 01:10:51.079
I really like to take a picture of like floor

1212
01:10:51.119 --> 01:10:52.199
thirteen in a hotel.

1213
01:10:52.640 --> 01:10:56.760
Yeah, I don't think I have been twenty the show

1214
01:10:56.880 --> 01:10:58.000
of floor thirteen.

1215
01:10:58.560 --> 01:11:02.760
I'm pretty sure I have a least one photo of

1216
01:11:02.800 --> 01:11:06.239
a floor thirteen in a hotel. I like it, same

1217
01:11:06.279 --> 01:11:08.640
with like what is it room? I think we took

1218
01:11:08.680 --> 01:11:10.479
a picture in front of room six sixty six when

1219
01:11:10.520 --> 01:11:15.119
we were staying somewhere. I'm pretty sure sounds like us,

1220
01:11:17.359 --> 01:11:19.199
but I can't remember.

1221
01:11:19.439 --> 01:11:22.159
No, we didn't have a there was not thirteen floors,

1222
01:11:22.159 --> 01:11:24.319
But I don't know if there was a room thirteen

1223
01:11:24.439 --> 01:11:26.880
in a hotel that I worked at, I don't think

1224
01:11:26.880 --> 01:11:27.319
there was.

1225
01:11:28.000 --> 01:11:29.239
Went from twelve to fourteen.

1226
01:11:30.079 --> 01:11:35.119
I feel like I'd be less stitious about a room

1227
01:11:35.359 --> 01:11:41.880
thirteen than an entire floor. Honestly, no matter what you

1228
01:11:42.000 --> 01:11:45.880
name it floor, if you skip thirteen, floor fourteen is

1229
01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:50.000
still floor thirteen technically, so you're not getting away from it.

1230
01:11:50.359 --> 01:11:53.560
Why don't you just make your building twelve floors? Yeah,

1231
01:11:53.640 --> 01:11:57.840
I mean there's always that. I was trying to think

1232
01:11:57.880 --> 01:12:02.319
of any superstitious I have, like on a I do.

1233
01:12:02.520 --> 01:12:04.399
I mean, I rub the bat in my car for

1234
01:12:04.479 --> 01:12:07.359
good luck every single day, at least multiple times. So

1235
01:12:07.439 --> 01:12:09.520
I'm driving every time I think about it, and I

1236
01:12:09.600 --> 01:12:11.600
reach up and he's hanging from my mirror and I just,

1237
01:12:12.199 --> 01:12:13.640
you know, rub his little head.

1238
01:12:13.680 --> 01:12:17.159
Well, you know mine in the car. Remember I've got

1239
01:12:17.159 --> 01:12:20.720
the danglar off my rear view mirror.

1240
01:12:21.000 --> 01:12:25.279
You've got a danglar too, you rub it sometimes?

1241
01:12:25.399 --> 01:12:29.119
Or is it just there so it kind of looks

1242
01:12:29.159 --> 01:12:32.239
like a locket, but it's like in the shape of

1243
01:12:32.279 --> 01:12:38.359
an angel. Oh, yeah, which I have mixed givings about.

1244
01:12:39.079 --> 01:12:42.000
But my Mom's always called it my parking angel.

1245
01:12:42.119 --> 01:12:47.199
Oh is it uh like traditional angel like with eyeballs

1246
01:12:47.199 --> 01:12:48.319
all over it or is it.

1247
01:12:48.279 --> 01:12:53.840
Like nos, Yeah, it's like the angel little favor like No,

1248
01:12:53.960 --> 01:12:56.520
I mean it's like the kind that people actually want

1249
01:12:56.520 --> 01:12:56.920
to look at.

1250
01:12:57.000 --> 01:13:03.119
It's not a scary eyeball beast. Yeah.

1251
01:13:03.319 --> 01:13:08.159
No, it's it's like like the touch by an angel

1252
01:13:08.640 --> 01:13:11.000
version of an angel, for sure.

1253
01:13:11.840 --> 01:13:14.520
Yeah. I think something having something in your car just

1254
01:13:15.159 --> 01:13:18.960
I don't know, for me, Like people are insane on

1255
01:13:19.039 --> 01:13:21.880
the road and I just like need something to make

1256
01:13:21.920 --> 01:13:23.960
me feel better in the car because I just have

1257
01:13:24.079 --> 01:13:27.840
a lot of anxiety about driving. Yeah, so I feel

1258
01:13:27.840 --> 01:13:30.680
like that's just a good thing to have in your car,

1259
01:13:31.039 --> 01:13:33.039
just something little that you could just be like, oh

1260
01:13:33.199 --> 01:13:36.560
that keeps me safe or helps me fine.

1261
01:13:36.600 --> 01:13:42.279
Yeah, parking. Parking is fucking stressful, dude, it really is.

1262
01:13:42.800 --> 01:13:46.239
I hate going somewhere and not knowing what the parking situation.

1263
01:13:46.880 --> 01:13:50.800
Have you ever pulled up to a spot that you

1264
01:13:50.840 --> 01:13:54.640
thought I could do that. I could parallel that bitch,

1265
01:13:55.239 --> 01:13:58.000
but you know what, there's too many people watching and

1266
01:13:58.039 --> 01:13:59.079
you go around the block.

1267
01:14:00.279 --> 01:14:04.560
M M. Yeah. I did that once, and I did it.

1268
01:14:04.720 --> 01:14:06.880
I was like, I can do this and it was

1269
01:14:06.920 --> 01:14:11.960
on my left side. Oh boy. And then I assume

1270
01:14:12.199 --> 01:14:16.479
was a houseless person watched me the entire time and

1271
01:14:16.640 --> 01:14:20.399
laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed.

1272
01:14:21.279 --> 01:14:24.199
So I'm given to understanding because I couldn't do it.

1273
01:14:23.880 --> 01:14:27.159
It took you a while, and he laughed so much

1274
01:14:27.279 --> 01:14:29.079
that I just gave up and I.

1275
01:14:29.079 --> 01:14:31.359
Drove away and I found it in a bar.

1276
01:14:33.399 --> 01:14:36.800
Oh no, I even I'm pretty sure. I rolled my

1277
01:14:36.840 --> 01:14:39.720
window down and said, hey, can you help me? And

1278
01:14:39.880 --> 01:14:43.279
he didn't. He was like, no, I would take her

1279
01:14:43.319 --> 01:14:46.039
out right now. This is too hilarious.

1280
01:14:46.119 --> 01:14:49.560
I will hip you. I just wanted some help and

1281
01:14:49.640 --> 01:14:53.039
to not be laughed at. And no, which I don't

1282
01:14:53.039 --> 01:14:58.359
blame him. It's pretty funny, dude. Parallel parking on the

1283
01:14:58.439 --> 01:15:01.840
left side is not right. It's just not right. It's

1284
01:15:01.880 --> 01:15:04.720
not right. It's Portland. It's not right, not right.

1285
01:15:05.319 --> 01:15:10.560
I agree. Well, have a crazy yes, Friday the thirteen.

1286
01:15:11.319 --> 01:15:19.680
We'll see you next Thursday. Or wait what we do Thursday, Friday, Thursday, Thursday, Friday, Tuesday.

1287
01:15:19.880 --> 01:15:21.720
We don't know what day it is. It's like a

1288
01:15:21.760 --> 01:15:26.760
whole thing, you know, Wednesday, Humpday, Thursday. Everyone.

1289
01:15:27.279 --> 01:15:29.720
This is a good reminder when our episodes come out

1290
01:15:29.720 --> 01:15:30.479
on Thursdays.

1291
01:15:30.520 --> 01:15:33.279
Cut your nails because it's for wealth. Oh, there you go,

1292
01:15:33.680 --> 01:15:38.960
you're welcome. Yeah, we got you. All I could think

1293
01:15:38.960 --> 01:15:44.319
of was of Star Trek. Yeah, Resistance of Futile which

1294
01:15:44.840 --> 01:15:48.079
stop it? I did it again. Okay, I know it's

1295
01:15:48.119 --> 01:15:49.920
Star Trek. I know that.

1296
01:15:51.399 --> 01:15:51.680
Time.

1297
01:15:52.720 --> 01:15:56.880
I always say Star Trek like because it's close enough,

1298
01:15:56.920 --> 01:15:59.520
and it's also funny to like say it wrong. I

1299
01:15:59.640 --> 01:16:02.920
know it's wrong. So the last episode I did, I

1300
01:16:02.960 --> 01:16:06.319
said Star Trek and I know it's Star Trek. Okay,

1301
01:16:06.840 --> 01:16:10.359
just leave me alone. I thought you said Star Wars. No,

1302
01:16:10.399 --> 01:16:14.800
I'm not that bad. Oh yeah, totally. I just Track

1303
01:16:14.840 --> 01:16:17.960
and Track are not that different affords. And it's just

1304
01:16:18.000 --> 01:16:20.760
funny to say things wrong and then like it's fun

1305
01:16:20.800 --> 01:16:23.720
for us, I say it ironically, and then sometimes it

1306
01:16:23.800 --> 01:16:28.960
slips through un ironically and ironically. Anyway, what are you

1307
01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:29.279
gonna do?

1308
01:16:31.520 --> 01:16:31.880
Sue me?

1309
01:16:32.159 --> 01:16:32.479
Okay,
