Superstitions From Around the World

0:01 Okay, so this episode is about another special date coming up. Do you have any ideas? Is that Friday the thirteen? Oh my god, it's like she's a witch today. I thought it would be fun, though, to talk about superstitions. Caitlin. Yeah, you better answer this right. Okay, are you superstitious? I'm a little stitious. Yes. I wrote that in and I'm like this, bitch, better fucking answers. Oh, come on, you know I knew that one. Hi, Caitlin, Hi, Cassie, Hi, Charlotte, Charinette. Okay, what's that we call little male sounds? Just a little bite.

0:56 That's okay. We can get new phony suigees. That's true. The phone things are cheap. Charlotte's bringing her pod dog debut. Yeah, we're sorry that this is a novid situation. Will uh. We will share Charlotte with the world. She's gonna have her own Instagram account because we're feeling like very extra pet parents. Don't have to share it on the story or something. God, her little belly, So Caitlin clearly procured her puppy. My god, she's so fucking cute. It's the first day I'm meeting her.

1:36 She's obsessed with Cassie. They all are. I'm pretty sure she's going to try to leave with her. She's the first person that she's met since she's come home with us. But I'm so honored. I love her. She's so beautiful, her coloring. If you need to see this fucking puppy, go to Instagram telling you she's so cute. Can you hear it? Yes? What kind of puppy is she? Hala? She's a long haired miniature docs weird. Yeah, I know, we're like kind of obsessed with them or something. I guess. Okay, So this is PNW Hans and Homicides, where we chat about true crime, the paranormal, and new puppies and all things speaking in the Pacific Northwest.

2:29 Which actually ironically also includes Charlotte because she may be possessed. That is true. We'll have to do an episode on puppy possession because they're all possessed. Very serious, very serious affliction. Also, the Pacific Northwest is the PNW. If you are in fact nasty and we do a tarot reading at the end of every episode for a little deeper insight into our topic, you should put Charlotte on the altar. I might I'll have to be on standby, including ultra photos. Or she almost just spilled mommy's wine, which is we might return you if you spill wine. Oh boy, she was looking at it like.

3:18 A whole Honestly, she's done a lot worse to our house than spill half a glass of wine. So honey, it's alcohol abuse. Yeah, okay, where did she sleepy again? So I think we can get into it now. Okay, I don't know, We're not obsessed or anything. We might just sit here silently and watch her. Yeah, in that episode, it's just Charlotte like literally put your little puppy nose on the mi like we oh, we didn't say hi, creepy people. We forgot that part. It's okay, there's a lot of exciting things happen. Yeah, we've got our hands full. Okay, So this episode is about another special date coming up.

4:09 Do any ideas it might have been when we recently did is that Friday the thirteenth? Oh my god, it's like she's a witch. Yeah, we have another Friday the thirteenth coming up? How crazy? I know. I only just recently realized that, Yeah, did you. Try to did you do another up Friday? The thirteenth episode out a lot because. Thurday It's matter is there isn't there another one this year? Shut up? I feel like there was like three this year. How No, Mini Friday, there's three other Another one is November thirteenth. Okay, well that so we have a ways away.

4:49 But these two are like back to back. Yeah, they are, which is rare. It feels like a lot. I didn't think about this until like last night. I just like again, and then I was like, oh shit, there's another Friday the thirteenth. We have to do something Friday the thirteenth spooky related. I love that for us. So we're going to talk about the meaning of Friday. No, I'm just kidding. I was like, you, bitch, we just did that. If you missed the episode, it was not long ago. Just go back, yeah, just go back today. I thought it would be fun, though, to talk about superstitions. Caitlin. Yeah, you better answer this right. Okay, are you superstitious? I'm a little stitious. Yeah. I wrote that in and I'm like this, bitch, better fucking answers. Oh, come on, you know I.

5:43 Knew that one. That's from the office. If you guys said no, you guys, if we are ever recording and we've had enough wine that I forget that, my comeback should be I'm a little stitious, Like cut me off. Yeah, you're you know, we're not friends, any I was about to get up and walk out, Honestly, if you didn't. Honestly, I could totally see an ADHD moment where I just like was not like connecting the brainways. You didn't see the intense stair. I saw it, but I could see a moment where I might just be deeply confused by it.

6:24 Why are you asking me? I don't know, I don't know what is the big deal. But seriously, okay, true answer though? Are you do you have any superstitions? Are you superstitious? Super at all? I'm not gonna edit that out. I wouldn't. No. Actually, it's funny because I the reason why I laughed so hard at that scene is that that's exactly how I would describe myself. Right, I'm a little stitious, a little Yeah, that's true. It's it's very relatable because I think so. I think most people, even if they don't strictly believe, you know, they logically know.

7:08 Probably it's not. Something I really hardcore. I believe in there are things that kind of give you pause. Yeah, but get it? What if pause? No puppy Paul I was. I was like, isn't there a thing with a paul like a rabbit's But it's not in my I didn't talk about it in this but yeah, good luck. Yeah, yeah, I wonder why it's good luck. I literally know. No, that's so crazy because i've I mean, I'm sure, I'm sure I looked that up myself at some point, but I really have no idea either. Let's look it up real quick. Because they're associated with fertility, speed in abundance. Oh interesting, that's what the AI overview says.

7:54 It says it could cure gout. Oh why do is they gout like that? Yeout? Because you were very incredulous. I feel like I have relatives that would have liked to have known that. I don't think that's true. Yeah, I don't think so either. I don't think a rabbit's boot could kill it gout. Europeans carried cut paws from hairs, rabbits, and moles to protect against various ailments, including cramps, rheumatism. Is it like arth? Write? Is? Uh? There is rheumatoid arthritis. Yeah, toothaches. Which toothache stood out to me for some reason. Huh. I'm finding on Reddit and so I you know, grain of salt, because I have no idea how true this is or you know, if anybody did their research before posting this. But it says that the rabbit's foot being lucky actually comes from who.

8:51 Doo oh that, which is interesting. I have no idea if that's actually actual, but I could see though, why certain people would steal that from another religion make it as their own, as often happens. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I feel like that makes sense here. Let me I'm curious and make a noise. It's either they steal it and it's lucky for them, or then it's unlucky. Or yeah, or now it's bad bad not you not bead? So what I do AI overview? If she is to be believed this isn't on the Fly episode you guys, Yeah, don't worry about it. It seems like that there might be some basis for that belief that it does. I don't know if it is predated by any other cultural or spiritual tradition, but it does appear that that is a part of the who do tradition, and I don't know very much about who Doo. To be honest me neither. Yeah, but now I feel like we're oh my.

10:00 God, we should do an episode on that. Okay, this is spooky ooh in who do? A lucky rabbit's foot is a powerful amulet used for protection, gambling, luck, and personal success, originating from African American folk magic. Traditionally, it must be the left hind foot of a rabbit captured in a cemetery oh after, often under specific conditions like a full moon, or by a cross eyed person, by. A cross eyde person. That is so specific, I wonder what, like why I'm speaking of like a crossroads where.

10:43 Yeah, I want to know the significance and maybe maybe there is none. Maybe maybe it's something incredibly important. I don't know enough about the tradition. This is very interesting. I think we might have to dive deeper in. This at some point. My best guess is that because if your cross eyed, maybe you can see into both worlds because your vision is like crossed, So that makes like a magic thing. You have to look into it. For me, that's interesting, Okay, I'm seeing some very interesting stuff here, and I really do actually kind of want to look for into this, but again we're looking at this is the AI overview that you just get back in your average Google search. But historically, the rabbit's foot served as a symbolic substitute for a human bone, often from a criminal or someone who died a bad death, to harness their restless spirit's power for protection.

11:46 Huh, this is really interesting. I'm going to need you. I don't know why we're putting this on you to do, but I need you. I'm not either. You're like, I heard something about criminals, so I feel like this is your this is true crime related. Yeah, I guess this is true crime now. So we're going to talk about some superstitions today, some that you probably have heard of, and then we're going to get into some pretty like weird one yeah, that I've never heard of before. Oh, I like it. So the first one is black cats. Oh and I love black cats. Yeah. My first cat, we talked about it today. He was a black cat. She does not like cats.

12:31 She said, there's no cats in this house because my mom is allergic. So a lot of people when they hear black cats they think of bad luck. Yeah, which is unfortunate because I'm rude. Frankly, Yeah, it is frank, Okay. Call me frank, because it does kind of freak me out because whenever I have a black cat like cross in front of me, it feels very pointed. Right, you get a bad vibe from it. I think most of the time, I'm just like bro. Seriously, there were so many other places, you know, that one does kind of freak me out because I do feel like I don't see that many black cats, That is true.

13:16 I was trying to think if I've ever had a black cat in the wild. I'm sure it's happened like a cross in front of me, but I don't know that it made an impression on me. Yeah, it definitely did for me at least one time. And I'm still here, so you know, did anything bad happen after? Oh my gosh, it's been years. I don't think so. I don't think so. Not in particular. I did live with a black cat though, so he often crossed my bed. I mean, I feel like that's totally different when it's like a black cat that comes out of nowhere. Yeah, because I don't I don't historically, just like chill with like a ton of cats. No, she is a lit Yeah.

13:57 Listen, I want to wish I could wish I could spend some more time with cats. Let's see. So I think we all know that Egyptians saw cats as good luck. Yeah. I feel like didn't they view them as like almost God? Yeah? Like sacred like God's Yeah. I'm wondering if they had a bias and specifically black cats, or if they just thought all cats. I'm pretty sure they just thought all cats. I feel like it was very general. I don't think they had I mean, I'm no expert. Yeah, but I don't feel like I ever remember hearing that it was like specific to a coloring or anything. Because I'm thinking of I have a cat statue that's Egyptian and it's black. It's a black statue with like gold accents on it. So the Dark Ages? Do you know what the Dark Ages are?

14:46 Five hundred to one thousand and eighty. That's a lot of dark ages. Yeah, only five hundred years of darkness. Wow. I wonder why they were called the Dark Ages. Maybe, well, let's not look it up now, but like that's maybe go back to that at some point. It actually says, right, Okay, why why were they? The Dark Ages characterized by a often debated decline in literacy, urbanization, and central authority. This period saw the rise of feudalism. So I mean futile. Yeah, yeah, it's feudile, like feud it's different but but yes, but it applies the feudal system.

15:34 It is futile to resist the dominance. Of the Catholic Church, okay, and significant cultural shifts. I feel like I can point to two that resonate for me, the feudalism and the dominance. Of the Catholic Church. Okay. Ye, so this says in the Dark Ages because of Catholicism or Folicism, I mean fifty to fifty odds there. I feel like, so Pope Gregory the Ninth declared dark colored cats and incarnation of Satan. Oh right, because you know which is right, familiars, And but like, how why would you think that cats are Satan?

16:18 That's just crazy. Listen. I'm not going to tell you how to pope, but don't tell the pope about a pope. Yeah, I'm just saying though that, like, if you've read the Bible, which I very much have, just like the cliff notes basically but like, shouldn't he be choosing like a serpent? Isn't that like the whole thing? Right? But still, like I don't know, don't put don't put your shit on nature's miracles. Maybe he was allergic to cats and also asshole. That makes sense, yeah, because like I'm allergic to cats, but also not an asshole. Mostly, No, just kidding, No, you really do try, You don't ham like I love cats? Yeah, I go and I sit and I hang out with cats, and I'm like, I'm going to be in so much pain later, but you're so cute.

17:08 See that's a true animal lover right there. Honestly, hope Gregory the Ninth clearly was not. He is my nemesis now, no, but I really think it was because of the whole witch thing. The whole A lot of single women probably had cats, which they still do. Okay, leave us alone. I do not have a cat. Yet you live with the cat. The cat she's not mine. She's a good girl, she's across, she's cross eyed. And we have a bunny. I don't know exactly what that means, but it feels significant. So if we take our cat and our bunny to a cemetery, and she kills the bunny. No, no, she just has to capture it. Oh, capture it, but then she has to take us left foot, it's right foot, it's left foot, it's left foot. Left hand. Wait, I thought left was evil. We'll get into it later. Left is supposed to be the evil side.

18:08 That's yeah, mm hmm, yeah that's I heard that one time as well. Also, yeah, you have a thing against left handed people. Me. Wait, was that you were Brittany? I think that was Brittany, but I do ask? I get confused. Yeah, well, okay, so I was like, I've never said anything. It was totally Brittany. She's like everyone that's left handed is evil. I mean, she might not be wrong. Do you know who's left handed? A certain ex that emailed me out of the blue. Do you know who else is left handed? Or certain ex that likes to like things five weeks ago? You guys, lefties are they are possibly evil? Get the fuck out of here, allegedly stop liking our shit. We don't like you. Get out of here. Welly, unless you're like one of our listeners who's not an ex. Okay, I don't know, could be the wine talking. Are you cut that out or and we'll decide later.

19:03 Yeah, it's fun. I think it's hilarious. Yeah, that is fucking weird though. Okay, creepy people, let's take a survey if any of you are left handed, let us know how much of a psychopath you are. Well, they make up like left handed people make up. I think roughly fifteen percent. Of the population. Oh wow, I don't think they can all be evil, right, No, I think that, but I would be interested to know. I would say one hundred percent of assholes are evil. I would say one. Hundred percent of our good for nothing xes that are left handed are each just as described.

19:45 That's an accurate statement. Yeah, thank you. Okay, I'm all about responsible reporting. Okay, moving on. You know they burnt the black cats and bonfires is not fucked up. I just read that just now. Oh no, oh sweet, do you need a minute. Oh okay, So they did it on Holy Days, which is extra fucked up. I don't know. Shrove trove Tuesday? What's that? Wait? Trove? It's a shrove? Is it? It's s h r o V? Okay I just pronounced it as trove. No, no, no, I just wasn't sure. I heard it right. It's a Shrove Tuesday, the first Sunday of Lent in Easter, they would have bonfires and fucking burn black cats because they thought they were Satan.

20:29 That's fucked well, that's why, because it's Eastern I know. Yeah, I honestly, I don't think Jesus would. I don't think he would approve of burning innocent black cats. Unless the whole trick was that, like cut up. No, they get to do a black cat fashion show pagans for Jesus. I love that. Yeah, it's my new platform. I've literally never heard of Shrove Tuesday. Yes. And here's what's interesting is I had a coworker that brought in one of those. It's a king cake and it's something that they do for Marti Gras. I had one of those recently. Yeah, I was house sitting and they went to New Orleans, got a king cake, brought it back, cut me a slice, and I was like, I want the Jesus. But I did.

21:18 I didn't get the baby Jesus in this golden flea saper. Is it supposed to be a baby Jesus. I thought it was just a baby. It's a baby. Well, I think it's ends on whether or not you're religious. I think it's supposed to be baby Jesus. I don't know. Okay. Shrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Day or Marti Gras, the final day of feasting before the Christian besting season of Lent. Oly shit, yeah, interesting, Pancake Day. I've never heard of this. And it's also Marti Gras. You get your parent cakes out, as they say, oh smash. I was like, titties and pancakes.

22:00 Let's go get your titties and your pancakes out because Lent. And also it's pancake Day and Marty Grass. But do not burn the fucking black cats as gross. No one does that anymore. I hope to fucking that's the baby Jesus in the cancake. No, that's not how I'm celebrating, either Pancake Day. Or Marty Gras. Not cool, Maddi Gras. Oh, okay, here we go. So because black cats were associated with either a devil or a demon when they cross your path, So if they cross the road in front of you, they're blocking your connection to God, to Jesus, to the path to heaven. I mean, it makes sense. When you are crazy, you know. Yeah? Yeah? Okay, So moving along, not to bring up Taylor Swift again in this podcast, but the next one is Knocking on Wood. Okay you know that song? Yeah? No, I mean yeah, it's such a good song. Everyone go listen to it because it relates. Okay, this is because Pagans used to believe that spirits were living in the trees, which I think they do. We've talked about it before, like we've when did we talk about this when we went to the uh the cemetery right loan for or not? We might have brought it up then, but I'm thinking of the hotel we went to on the ghost tour, the Benson, Yes, yeah, wasn't it?

23:29 Was it the Benson Downtown? Yeah? Yeah yeah. So she was telling us about the wood, how it came from where you came from. It's literally and it's an extinct species, yes, And they used to think that there was like you could see like faces the spirits in the wood. So that's what this reminds me of. So when you knock on the wood, you're asking the spirits for protection. Some people think that the evil spirits live in the wood, which I don't agree. With and so if you knock on the wooded scared them away. Yeah, which I don't think any evil spirits can live in something that comes from nature. That's just my personal belief. But yeah, as I recall, it was like a very old timey, creepy Bavarian forests. So if it was gonna happen, or it's like the face spirits that live in the wood, which is complicated because they can be seen as.

24:22 Evil, I just they are complicated. I think they're just you know, like she's a bitch, you know, like she's just very straightforward. She tells you what she wants and doesn't want, and that doesn't make you evil or bitch. It might make you what they call how you say, difficult, just makes you you you know, And we didn't judge you for that. Yeah, no, I mean that. Uh do you remember that same species of wood? It was literally like on the Titanic. Do you remember she was telling us that, like there are only so many histories oracle landmarks that you can visit and see it.

25:03 And she's like, and you know, if if you could visit the Titanic. Oh, I'm pretty sure, I can't remember. I thought we were just back and listen to that episode again about the Benson Hotel. Everyone should I know, I remember you comparing it to the look of the Titanic, and then the Titanic somehow came up, so maybe there. Yeah. Interesting, everyone go back and listen and tell us what was said. Yeah, oh, it just as Christians. They thought it was about the power of like the crucifix, oh, being made of wood. So that's kind of some of the knocking on wood comes from. But I feel like that's kind of like they just stole something again from the Pagans and try to make it their own.

25:48 Honestly, it's like, I don't know, it's kind of like stop trying to make fetch happen. Yeah, you know, I feel like knock on cross like if you're gonna if you're gonna go that way. I just feel like, not everything's about you, you know, like it's giving like only child raised in like a really wealthy family from the Christians. Yeah, yeah, that has like no boundaries. Sorry, I mean from that segment just right there, just that little snippet about knock on wood being about the I don't know, maybe it's from that. I was just about to say sorry to any Christians listening. But honestly, we love you. You believe what you want, but you did steal. Not you personally, but the people who made Christianity did still from the Pagans, and that's just a fact.

26:35 I just think we have to get on board with a few fundamental facts about history. It's stolen land, it's stolen principles, it's a lot of stolen velor. My dudes, and I don't mind if we agree to disagree. I don't hate you. I mean, we can agree to disagree I'm right, but I don't hate you. Yeah, yeah for thinking you're right. And I don't want you to hate me for knowing that. Okay, I love you, Love you, no, seriously and all in all seriousness, love you. Okay, listen. I already went to that one church camp and just to like hedge my bats are you Okay? I did commit my heart to Jasus.

27:21 I did two one time. Okay, you guys. I used to go to youth group. Yeah, and they were really cool. They had a fucking band. Okay, there was a fucking band, and honestly it was really cool because I love music and I will get moved by live music. Yeah, for sure. And if there's live music happening and you tell me Jesus wants me, I'm gonna be. Like all right, like that dude is like not unattractive. I feel Jesus Chili's today. Yeah yeah, yeah. Honestly, my Christian summer camp just had like really hot older college age like counselors, highly pro All of the girls had crushes on these like very very sweet, very pure, okay, very pure, quite so okay, and they all had cute nicknames.

28:15 Okay, Templeton, Oh, Templeton. If you're listening, she is no longer twelve years old, and she is also off the market. Yeah. Sorry, she's married, but I'm not yea. Honestly, if you saw Templeton, you could get it. Okay. Oh my gosh. Did you know there was a British children's game called Tiggy Touchwood Tiggy Touchwood and I don't care. That's not. I think I did. Actually, I feel like this is accessing a part of my brain that I'm like, you don't need this for every day. I feel like it's there. I don't know if I've heard this before, but it was basically like tag like tager it. But if you went in touch like the nearest piece of wood. You're safe. Okay, Yes, I totally have heard of this, and the British still say, apparently according to this article, they still say touchwood to this day. It's kind of like saying knock on wood for us. Yes, yeah, I did know this.

29:15 I did know this, and I did know the Brits say touch wood. I can't. That's it, touch wood. End of episode. Okay, who knew a superstition would be so spicy? I knew as soon as we talked about wood, we would just completely go off, go off the ladder. Speaking of ladders, here's the thing is that I'm I'm much sure married woman. I looked off to camera that wasn't even there. Yeah, yeah, it wasn't even the camera that I look at. Who's a different camera, Like there's a docum jentary, Hutch, I'm just gonna pick one that was your like you were breaking the fourth wall. I was, yeah, Wow, there's a lot of office talk in this episode, and I was just Jim, Yeah, Halper tang all over this, halperching. So about them ladders? Yeah, so about ladders. Did you know it was unlucky to walk underneath one I mean, and that one I got you. It just makes sense, does it? Why?

30:26 Why do you think you know? If you work in construction, I feel like probably don't need to go any further. I feel like intuitively we all understand that you don't want to. Do that in case you like shoulder bump the ladder and like knock off someone who's. Or or someone can fall off the ladder and crash into you, like so many reasons. But if you're under the ladder, they can't fall on. Or what if they fall and then the ladder collapses and it smashes you. Oh okay, I could see that. Yeah, like a sardine and a can. Some of it comes from the Holy Trinity. Because a triangle, because a ladder leaning up against the wall makes a triangle, and so if you walk under it, you're destroying the sanctity.

31:09 I was gonna say, sanctity, isn't it. You're walking right through that sanctity. I'm just putting all of my appendages through all of its sanctity. We're desanctifying this. Bitch, even if it's not like up against a wall, like a ladder is always a triangle. Oh, because it's like it has its own Yeah. I was just thinking of like propping up the ladder, but yeah, no, the ladder is a triangle because it has to prop itself up. Okay, I was like I had to say it so that I could make sure I was understanding. You were right. So ladders also, I guess they either remind people of gallows or they actually use make sense. In some gallows they have people think that the underneath of ladders are haunted because that's where a lot of people were. Yeah, it makes sense.

31:58 We're died where they were when were they were opening umbrellas indoors? Yeah, I mean that's just inconvenient and seems like you're like trying to get other people like what. And or poke out their eye. You're gonna poke your eye out. That's kind of the end of this. Where modern day umbrellas kind of they just pop open and they're all wet, They spray the water reads everywhere. If you're closed, you can poke an eye out. They're dangerous. But in ancient Egyptian days, they used umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun. Yeah it's sps, yes, yeah, and so if you opened it indoors where there was no sun.

32:38 It was an insult to the sun god, which it doesn't say who the sun god is? Who's the sun god? Like, absolutely, yeah it is. I was gonna say, I feel like I know this, but we talked. I looked it up, like for the episode I did Egyptian stuff on. Yes yeah, yeah, yeah, No, the one is yes, yeah, okay. So it is considered an insult to the sun god ra if you open it indoors, which I mean, gosh, why is he watching that closely? Listen? The ancient gods are like soups sensitive, They're up in your business to talk about snowflakes. They're still listening.

33:20 They actually did say there was like a small chance of snow in Portland next week. Don't open any Actually it was kind of sunny today. It was in and out like Oregon does. Rainy Sonny, Rainy Sonny, you know how she do. So what if you open an umbrella right as the sun goes under a cloud? Is that insulting? I don't know. Does it matter if you're Egyptian or not, or if you worship the Egyptian gods? Are they still going to find it offensive? These are the hard hitting questions we need answered. I could ask my cousin, is he the god of Ra, the god of Raw, the god? Are they the son god Raw?

34:05 No, but they are half Egyptian. Oh oh that is so cool. I don't know how familiar she is with uh, ancient like mythology like the spirit, because your Egyptian doesn't mean you know about ancient agents. Yeah, yeah you could. But if I asked her, I would trust that she would present me sexual information, make a very convincing power point. Yeah. That's the thing I don't expect necessarily everyone I ask, just because they are part Egyptian or part Filipino whatever, to know all of the answers that I do know that people that I trust based on like these cultural topics, they would want to present the information like accurately.

35:03 Yeah you know, yeah that makes sense. I get that. Yeah, it's better to ask someone who has a connection to the culture. Yeah, unless you know for a fact, like this person's a historian, I studied this culture. Yeah, you know, if I was going to do my own independent research and I felt confident about that, that's one thing. But I used to Oh my gosh, I used to be obsessed with Egypt. Then I just wanted to be Egyptians so badly. Yeah, it really did. I mean I didn't I wanted to be like ancient Egypt. You know, I didn't really know what it meant. You're like, I would like to time travel because I'm just like a little white girl in history class. Yeah, and just like, honestly, America is just kind of like whatever.

35:47 I just loved all the statues and the simp what is it, the the symbols they used to write what were they called hierarchy class, Yes, all of that. I just loved it. In the cat and cats, always love cats and mummies. I've always been obsessed with death and so were they. And you're like, Okay, same girl. I want someone to build me a pyramid and bury me underneath it with all my treasures and jewels and gems. My's pretty relatable. Okay, let's move on to the next one. A broken mirror. How many years of bad luck do you get? Break a mirror? Does everybody just know that? Do you know why? People? How many mirrors have you broken? Caitlyn?

36:30 Not that many? How many years of bad luck have you accrued? Okay? I asked you why you think you have seven years of bad luck? When you break a mirror. I have no idea. I'll tell you. The ancient Romans believed that the mirrors could hold a piece of your soul, and the soul renews itself every seven years. So if you break a mirror, it steals a piece of your soul. Oh, you know, every seven years at renews, so after seven you're good. But you will have seven years of bad luck because your soul is taken by the broken mirror. Okay, cool, that's actually a lot worse than what I thought. Really, what did you think? I have no idea, but it just seems so serious. It does seem a lot more serious than just like, oh, break a mirror, you'll have bad luck.

37:18 But like knowing the reason behind it is like shit that mirrors take my soul. It's just so needlessly dark. I know it is, don't I don't feel like mirrors take your soul. But it reminds me of two things. Like I think Jewish people have to cover the mirrors when somebody dies because they're I. Believe you can get I think that's actually I think that's common in a lot of cultures. But I believe when you sit shiva, typically yes, they do cover mirrors. I don't know a lot. It's just things i've heard, probably a podcast. Yeah, I'm not familiar with why that is the tradition.

38:00 It's because their soul could get trapped in the mirror or they hear that confuse. That also reminds me of the show I've been watching. Oh really, School Spirits. Oh right, there's the thing with mirrors. Yeah, where you can get trapped. That's interesting. I think there are certain premises and certain things that like across cultural boundaries that all types of people might encounter that we all sort of have this almost innate reaction. To that, Like across all of. These different cultural and spiritual and ethnic groups, we kind of have i don't know, like sort of a similar belief, even if it's like based on sort of a different god or based on maybe a different custom where it's like, I don't know, whenever we talk about things that date back hundreds and even that of years, and you know, obviously this case, it just makes me think about that.

39:05 It's like, God, it's so sad that if we really thought about it, we get so caught up on what is you know, some distinction almost without a difference between us and whatever we have decided whoever we have decided to other, and it's like we have we just really as human beings, in so many cases, we have so much more in common. Than we'd like to believe. Nobody knows what a soul actually is. And that's right, that's common, and it's between all people amongst all people, not between Yeah. I you know, either either or I feel like six one way half a dozen the other English teacher let us know. Yeah, I just I just think that, like in so many situations where it's like it we're talking about a topic that there's sort of a a component of the unknown, it's almost it's just that it's easier to bicker amongst ourselves about things that are of so much less significance than it is to grapple with the fact that, like we don't understand something that's like bigger than ourselves.

40:20 Yeah, it makes me think of too, they say, like the eyes or the mirror to the soul. M and so when like when you're looking in a mirror, you're looking into your own eyes, and so like maybe that opens a portal of like the soul into the mirror. Does that make sense? Yeah? No, I mean I just I think that there are just certain things that, like, innately as humans, we feel like there's a significance there that we maybe don't fully understand. H And that's I feel like, almost in a way, sort of a breeding ground for superstition, because we don't under stand it and we're we're we're grasping, We're constantly grappling with things that we don't understand, and we want to find meeting. We want there to be a pattern, and we want there to be a significance. Yeah, we want things to make sense. Whether the pattern exists in reality or just in our heads almost doesn't matter, because we just we want to make sense of things.

41:25 We want to label things, we want to compartmental Loze, we're literally never going to know. Yeah, while we're on this on this plane, earthly plane. I mean some people do claim to know, but yeah, nobody else knows if they actually know, Like right, man, such a deep topic, I know, unexpectedly. But oh, the other thing it reminded me of is like cameras, where they would I don't know if it was because earlier people like didn't know what a camera was and it was taking a picture of them and they were like, yeah, they thought it like trap their soul into the camera? Right, Yeah, No, I mean I think that and I can't say that I can recall a specific indigenous tribe, but that was a pretty commonly held belief.

42:11 I think I see that though. That would be fucking weird as shit. Yeah, if you're. Seeing yourself like on on something like how did how did I get into that thing? You know? Yeah? And I don't know if because here's the thing is dating back to that part of history for the most part. I mean we're not talking about like polaroids, right, so like what their understanding of like what a camera did could be so different. Like you had to stand there for a really long time, so like, man, just take a really long time, Yeah, steal my soul? Right? What if I just run away at the last second. But I could totally see that, Like how it's like when you're a kid almost and you're like, how did these people get into this little TV box?

42:57 Yes, I think there's a lot of things that as children we maybe have a very literal interpretation of. It's funny to have had conversations with other adults in my family and realize they're like, oh my gosh, I feel really guilty for the fact that I didn't explain that better to you, because I understand how your brain as a child, You know, your mind interprets that in such a different way. My brain was so weird as a. Child, Yeah, very deeply weird, and sometimes like literal in a way that I can't really account for. Oh this is good though, because the ancient Romans thought that you could negate the bad luck by bearing the broken pieces, all of the broken pieces of the mirror in the moonlight. Oh, burying them. It doesn't say where, but just bury them in the moonlight. Yeah. Does it mean the full moonlight or just the moonlight in general, not a new moon because there's no light coming. Doesn't specify.

44:01 So it's good to know that there's like an option for breaking the bad luck if you happen to accidentally break a mere. And I like to think that for things like this, where it's like there's maybe not clarification on some details, like what is it have to be a full moon, like what there. Might be if I did a deep dive into each specific thing. But I like to think though, in those instances, it's more about the fact that you made a good faith effort, right, if you believe that it will work. Yeah, just as if you believe that breaking a mirror will bring you bad luck, it probably will. All of the decisions that we make as individuals, I feel like, influence our future behaviors if you think about it, like quite literally, if you believe this, that will influence decisions that you make and things that you say and things that you do. So if you believe that to be the case, how could it not? How could not impact you know whether or not you're going to have seven years of good or bad luck.

45:07 And if you think that that's going to be the case, you could have that same luck either way if you didn't bring them or But you're going to see all of the bad, right, and you're going to filter it differently. Yeah, exactly. Have you heard of sweeping feet? So if you accidentally sweep somebody's room with the feet, yes, you sweep their feet with your broom. Yeah, if they're single, they will remain single forever. I for one am terrified. Right now, don't come at me with the broom, say from me, also, come at me with the room. Do I want to be single forever? Maybe? I don't know I'm having a great time.

45:53 I feel like you just want to have options. I think that's true, you know, until you really make up your mind. I feel like keeping your options open is good. But I think the curse can be broken if you immediately spit on the broom. I mean that feels fair. Hoto on that broom. That was not planned, That was hilarious. Yeah, just spit at spit on that broom and you'll be fine. Yeah, Okay. Itchy palms, what do you think that means? Do you have itchy palms a lot? Not itchy palms specifically itchy bums?

46:35 No, no, actually, and I've okay, I'm going to level with you, and I kind of like part of me doesn't want to say until I know what this is about. But I'm just gonna say. I have had a couple of nights where as soon as I go to get into bed, the bottom of my feet is so itchy I want to rip my whole leg off. Oh I don't know about itchy feet, okay, but palm specifically, which I used to get itchy palms because I ate too much salt. Oh, and so they would swallow up. And so when I would like work out. My hands would like saw my palms would be super itchy. Oh that's interesting. It's very annoying. I have a lot of like issues, we're very disordered.

47:19 Why we're not on camera today, Yeah, because my lips are having a reaction. It's fine. Everything fine not At least it wasn't as bad as the other day when I looked like a Kardashian. Yeah, you actually looked like a Kardashian that like, they wouldn't claim fuck you. They're like, you got some bad bulltox girls like at a land. So I was like, oh, it doesn't look that bad. But then I thought about it later and I was. Like, the pictures did not do it just yes. I was like the pictures, I know, that's like a fraction. Yeah. So anyway, my lips are allergic to everything and they swallow up. Yeah, it's fun, but so itchy palms.

48:03 It could mean good things and bad things, depending on which palm itches. Oh yeah, and this comes from the Caribbean. So the right palm is good. It means there's money coming to you. The left palm because it's evil, God damn it. It means that you will owe somebody money. So I usually have them both itching at the same time, so I think it cancels itself out. You're just like, like, do not collect two hundred dollars? Yes, like someone owes me money. I owe someone money. It's just equals itself, just sort of a steal me.

48:43 But if you have one that itches over the other, you better watch out. Yeah, itchy knows, shut up, No one knows, goes. What does that mean? I know what itchy ears mean. Wait, I think I'm just realizing that I'm really itchy itchy all over? Was it? She butt me? I get really really itchy, especially at night. I want to know if that means anything. I'm gonna have to look into it, because now I'm really freaked out. I think it just means you had a long day, a long it's like stressful day. Got it back, girl, do you I remember? I guess I have had itchy knows like on the inside. I don't know specifically if it means like outside inside it she knows. So I've always heard the itchy ears means like someone's talking about you. Yes, I've heard this. It she knows means that you'll get a fight, You'll get in a fight. Yes, okay. Well, so if you have an itchy knows you have to ask someone to slap you and then you have to slap them back. So technically it's a fight. Oh, it's slap fight. That will avoid another fight that you will have because your nose is itchy.

49:55 Okay, I feel like this should just be like part of our ritual. Maybe that should be part of our intro flat fight. I'm yes, I'm not having. A lot of physical altercations, but maybe that would save me from just like some verbal jousting. Maybe. Yeah. Oh so I was gonna say, I feel like this is very irish and it is. Well, yeah, I feel like that explains why it would work for me. My house is that you sat me. I'll set you back. This one's fun. Yeah, okay. It never put a bega upside down on the table. Who do you think this came from?

50:35 I have my suspicions. Oh is that the dick joke you were making earlier? I want you to beg it. Oh boy, So the French think that you should never put a bega upside down then on the table because it's bad. Luck to find upside down. So a beget it has a flat side because cooked on a thing, So don't put it like with the round roundies side, just check down, check it. Okay, cool, cool, cool, I assume hey, listen, real spicy up here points to brain. That's what my brain thinks. I guess if you cut it in half?

51:16 What? Yeah, I was thinking, like if you cut it in half verdic hot dog ways, you know, like you were going to make garlic bread. Oh, like if you put it buttergar bread is bad luck. I don't agree with this. I'm out it. No, over, garlic is good luck. So it negates the Yeah because vampires. Yeah, but do I want to attract a vampire? Because no, they don't like garlic exactly. So would that be bad luck because I want to attract a vampire? No, I disagree, okay, Stephanie Meyers. So a begette putting it upside down on the table bad luck because.

52:02 The French, because because the French and frenchness of it all, that is it. A baker would leave a bag upside down on a table for the executioner. I don't know why. Specifically, it would be upside down for the executioner after he had executed them. Naturally, he was hungry and he would need a beget I. Have a lot of follow up questions I have. I feel like there's so answer curious crossover with well, like between our genres on this. Oh that is true. Yeah, I don't know why it would be upside down. Maybe because so everybody would know, like this is for this one's for the executioner, don't take it.

52:47 Maybe I just feel like, doesn't that guy already have to deal with enough? You know, Yeah, but he's hungry, So like they were nice sure to leave him an upside down by get sure. But here's the bad luck bagette. You've already had a pretty tough day. I have to imagine. I don't think it's bad luck for him. Okay, it's only bad luck for anybody else besides the executioner. Oh. Interesting, Oh that's why. That's why, because it's upside down. Yeah, so they place it upside down because for him, advice, it's for that person, it's his meal. That makes sense. We talked it out. Because the French take food fucking really seriously, as they should.

53:30 I have no desire to see the Eiffel Tower or go to Paris or whatever, the fuck, but I would love to go to France for a fucking bigotte and coffee. Okay, this one's from Canada, winn you have to tell us if this is true. So they think that if your neighbor brings you food, you would like wash the plate right and give it back. Yeah, that's just Midwest ship. It's bad luck if you do that. Why you have to give them back the dirty place? Oh No, that's just a dick move. And I don't know why. It seems very Uncanadian to me. But also from the other side, it's like I gave you food, I don't want you to wash the plate. I want to wash the plate.

54:16 So I don't know. I could see it from both sides, like them fighting over who wants to clean the plate. No, because they're both so polite. Nope, as the descendant of depression era Midwesterners, that just all of my sensibilities are offended. Yeah, I definitely if I take food from someone, I'm washing, yeah dish, because I'm a cleaner. That's what I do. Return the dish dirty. Yeah, otherwise it's bad luck. Oh my god, Like I would just keep the dish at that point. No, fuck me, uh uh a, never gonna happen. You ain't getting that dishback. No, unless you want to leave like a super Bowl party or some shit with your dish, and I'm like, listen, I don't get time to wash that.

55:03 You're leaving. The game's nice over. Yeah, yeah, No. This is specifically like your neighbor brought you food on a plate, leaves it there before returning it. You don't clean it. Yeah, no, you just seem I don't know. On the other end of that, if I was giving you a dish and you didn't clean it, I would not be offended. I'd be like, all right, I'll fucking clean it. Like I don't, I don't care. I can see how some people would. That just would be so fucking weird. I know you would never do that. Have you never interacted Have you never interfaced with another human that is so fucking weird they made you the meal, like clean the dish. I feel like that's pretty standard shit.

55:48 I'm going to bang my mic stand again, Clint. Or someone else from Canada. You have to let us know. I'm calling right after this. Oh okay, yeah, call her, ask her if this is the real thing. I gotta ask every Canadian that I've ever met. Yeah, daven Hall, are they still from Canada? Can we ask? They're very much still are they still from Canada? I'm gonna I'm. Gonna take Lindsay after this and be like, hey, can you ask I need you to get in touch with the red on Wiki guys, and I need you to ask Josh. Like, I'm very interested in this because it's not something I would expect from Canada. No, because they're so polite, and it just seems so rude.

56:34 And I want to know why because there's no explanation. Yeah, there's no explanation. I don't like it, to be honest. Okay, this one's fun, all right. This was mostly back in like the days when beds were made of straw. Oh, but like, don't leave an indentation in your bed otherwise the devil will slide right into those games, those inddations in your bed. Wow, but it feels like a lot. I don't know what to say about this. Yeah, I mean, yikes, I don't know if it was just a thing to like get you to make your bed.

57:17 Oh my god, can you even imagine like having to poof your bed back up? Because it wasn't just a memory phone Yeah, it was made of straw and you have to like poof it back into its form. Maybe it was just a thing to like get people to make their beds, I guess, but like that's a very severe consequence. The devil will come and lay in your bed, lay in Wait. You know what that is. It's just like I think it's about women again. Well, I think by and large they make beds. No, I mean it's against women primarily in more than one sense.

57:57 I think. I think this is yield slutschaining. Oh, when you're getting the pile driver, you know, right in that good good. Moving along. Never leave a hat on the bed. This comes from Catholics. Where the priest would read the right, the last rights for the person who's dying, and they would put their hat because they don't want to wear their hat because that's disrespectful, so they would lay it on the bed and read the last rights. Okay, so that's like deadness. You know what. You said, a hat And I was like cowboy, And then I was like, whose bed have your boots been under?

58:42 That's funny. This one applies to Shania Twain. Always sleep with an axe under your bed. That is the right answer for cheating husbands. Also for protection against I guess wild. Other intruders in your bedroom as a woman. I think we can imagine. Yeah, it's also They also used to say it would cut through a fever. Oh my little limp wrisk. Yeah that was a very limp wrist. I was like that, ain't cutting through a slice of baloney. I am going ax throwing next weekend, and uh, I'm very bad at it. Oh we're going to show off this limp rist ax throwing business. You're bad at it.

59:34 I hadn't done it that many times. I've done it once, terrible. I don't think I stuck it at all. We'll see how this goes. Maybe I'll take a video. Maybe you guys will get to see. We don't know. Interesting. Yeah, now I've done it once and uh it's kind of fifty to fifty odds where like whatever is Skinndy Navian in my roots, I throw it. I throw it clean and true, or I threw it like a drunk irishman. There is no in between. This one's funny. In Turkey, they believe you should never to gum after dark. Do you know why?

1:00:14 I guess I don't. I have a cousin who lives in Turkey, and I have no idea why we have. To ask them if this is true. Yeah, it says because they believe it will turn into human flesh. Well, yes, it's giving back back wall anoxyway. It's giving unnecessarily dark like why why I don't know. We need to ask your cousin in Turkey. Okay, I mean she's I think she's back stateside, but like I'm happy to. Ask, you need to ask. Also, can we give Chassie points for saying black bark wall an oxiway just out of her memory? Thank you said that? Okay? The next one is a right that was published in the Berwickshire News in General Advertiser on November sixteenth, nineteen fifty four.

1:01:09 Oh boy, this is the superstition. But it's a poem about it. Okay, cut your nails on Monday, cut them for news. Cut them on Tuesday, a pair of news shoes, Oh bit on a Tuesday. Cut them on Wednesday, cut them for health. Cut them on Thursday, cut them for well E. Cut them on Friday, cut them for WHOA. Cut them on Saturday, a journey you'll go. Cut them on Sunday, you'll cut them for evil. Oh, for the next week, you'll be ruled by the devil. So you should never cut your nails on Sunday or you'll be evil for a whole week.

1:01:54 I have some bad news about mine. When did you cut them last? I feel like I frequently cut them on a Sunday. I feel like Sunday is self careday. You know what's interesting, Thursday seems to be a day that everybody agrees is like just good, just good. It might have to do with like the planets that rule that day. I'm not one hundred percent star. I don't know. You know what what. I guess you got married on a Thursday. You did this bit? Oh that's right, because I'm just gonna yeah. Didn't it say something about wolf? Yeah? Is it Wednesday or is it Thursday? Thursday? Did you cut your nails on your wedding day? No, you didn't.

1:02:39 I would love a pair of new shoes, so I might go for the two day Tuesday. You know, Honestly, my self care days are all over the fucking place, so it might be frequently Monday that I cut my fingernails. Honestly, you just you gotta do shit when you have the time, right. Yeah. I thought it was interesting though. And I I just think it's really interesting because I did a lot of research into like what are the traditions around days of the week, And obviously when I was getting married, I was looking at. Like what is sort of the lore. Around days of the week, and like what it means if you get married.

1:03:20 On this day? What's Thursday? I mean, Thursday is largely I think, and you know, every culture is a little bit different. But I was like, okay, Thursdays are by and large it seems like relatively we agree that's gratuitous, just weird because definitely not a Friday, yeah, or. The weekend interesting. Yeah, Friday says for whoa. Yeah, getting married on like a weekday actually used to be a very very common thing. Can you guess how day I'd get married? On? Wednesday day? Because you humph? I don't think I needed to say that, but I did. Yeah.

1:04:11 So one more are you ready for it? The theater kiad of me just couldn't couldn't leave this one out. Well, no saying Macbeth in a theater. It's cursed, it's curs it will curse your show. Okay, And I fully thought it was going to be like a break a leg thing. Yeah, that does make good luck. Yeah, I feel like we all know that, which is like I don't know why, it's like opposite day JK. I didn't look into why that is, but I do know that's a thing. Yeah, this one is called the Scottish Curse. Yes, and so apparently this play was particularly accident prom huh. So you should refer to it if you're in a theater as the Scottish play or the Bard's play, and if you accidentally say it, you have to do a cleansing ritual before being.

1:05:11 Allowed back into the theater. Which I did not know that part of it. I just know you. I just knew you weren't supposed to say it. I have heard that before. How do they cleanse that? I wonder no idea. How did the theater kids get cleansed? I mean, there could be a lot of things I can think of, but I will say here, you know, oh boy, these we weren't band kids, are right? I'm just gonna put crickets. Can we get a hand check on the band bus them? Be freaky love you guys like free Love. We're going to do a quick oracle reading from a fresh deck that we've never opened.

1:06:01 Did you get this for me? I think so? Okay, we just haven't opened it yet. I haven't been here in a minute, y'all. Okay, fresh deck, freshack. Speaking of band kids. Hey, listen, drama kids are just want to be band kids. They are superstitions. Charlotte, send your energy. I think it's this guy. Do you agree. I'm gonna go with your gut on this? Okay, trunk? What's a tree not gone? With stability, loyalty, reliability? Also owls. I didn't put it in my okay, so the imagery on this is a tree with mushrooms and leaves and an owl in a little tidy hole. Oh.

1:06:49 Owls were part of the There were so many superstitions, like an animal, but the if you hear an owl at night. Which was like everyone hears an owl at night, but. Like no, I actually feel like no one hears really owl at night, but I've been hearing one recently. Please tell me more. It's not good. It's a bad omen. That's cool. Yeah, I mean someone's gonna die, but that's fine. That's why I don't leave her out there on her grass patch. By herself. My gosh, because an owl will get her. She's so small, you rodent sized. Until they hit seven pounds or better. They can fall prey to hawks and stuff too, So what's the hawks and stuff?

1:07:34 Also? I never sent it to you in tailan, but I've been seeing the same group of three coyotes. Ooh, that's right here, scary and cool at the same time. Yeah. Card meaning stability, loyalty, reliability. I think I read that already, like a spine. The stock or trunk is the central column of a plant which everything branches. It is both the support and connector unifying the extremities of crown and roots. The newer, softer wood just beneath the protective bark of the trunk conveys moisture from the ground upward and moves energy created in the leaves downward. The core is what gives the tree its strength. Like a tree, your core has been formed of past experiences, and you've grown a list of your core beliefs. Who you are and what you hold dear and what you never compromise on That totally reminds me of like your superstitions. This is who you truly are. The trunk card reminds you to stay true to those beliefs to provide a safe, stable place for new experiences to develop. Reflection, What have some formative experiences in your life been and how have they shaped who you are today? That kind of reminds me of like my question of is there any superstitions do you believe in? Yeah, that's kind of interesting.

1:09:02 That it was like all about beliefs and literally like knock on wood, we got a trunk. I know, that's so funny. I love that we did a Friday the thirteenth episode. Another one, another one. I copycatted you DJ call it so but fact. My mom is su fastitious about the number thirteen. Oh okay. You know when you go to like a it's more in like fast food places, they hand you like the little number and take it to your table. They tried to handle at thirteen and she was like, oh no, thank you, fuck.

1:09:46 No, give me a new number. Yeah. I noticed recently when I was watching Heated Rivalry that they were going up in an elevator in a hotel room and they I was like, did they good number thirteen? Oh yeah they did. There was no floor thirteen. Them do a lot of them do I just thought it was cool that they in a modern TV show they showed that. I just like it modern ish. It's set not necessarily in current day, I. Mean, not like twenty twenty six, but like yeah. Yeah, I mean obviously the TV show like as of filming, it's modern, it's like current time.

1:10:28 And I don't know if that like tiny details. Some shows like patch at a tiny detail, but I don't know if like if the hotel had a floor thirteen, would they not show it in the you know what I mean? Or if they're just filming the hotel as is. I'm sure, I mean, I'm sure they're filming as is. I thought it was cool because some hotels do. And I really like to take a picture of like floor thirteen in a hotel. Yeah, I don't think I have been twenty the show of floor thirteen. I'm pretty sure I have a least one photo of a floor thirteen in a hotel. I like it, same with like what is it room? I think we took a picture in front of room six sixty six when we were staying somewhere. I'm pretty sure sounds like us, but I can't remember.

1:11:19 No, we didn't have a there was not thirteen floors, But I don't know if there was a room thirteen in a hotel that I worked at, I don't think there was. Went from twelve to fourteen. I feel like I'd be less stitious about a room thirteen than an entire floor. Honestly, no matter what you name it floor, if you skip thirteen, floor fourteen is still floor thirteen technically, so you're not getting away from it. Why don't you just make your building twelve floors? Yeah, I mean there's always that. I was trying to think of any superstitious I have, like on a I do.

1:12:02 I mean, I rub the bat in my car for good luck every single day, at least multiple times. So I'm driving every time I think about it, and I reach up and he's hanging from my mirror and I just, you know, rub his little head. Well, you know mine in the car. Remember I've got the danglar off my rear view mirror. You've got a danglar too, you rub it sometimes? Or is it just there so it kind of looks like a locket, but it's like in the shape of an angel. Oh, yeah, which I have mixed givings about. But my Mom's always called it my parking angel. Oh is it uh like traditional angel like with eyeballs all over it or is it.

1:12:48 Like nos, Yeah, it's like the angel little favor like No, I mean it's like the kind that people actually want to look at. It's not a scary eyeball beast. Yeah. No, it's it's like like the touch by an angel version of an angel, for sure. Yeah. I think something having something in your car just I don't know, for me, Like people are insane on the road and I just like need something to make me feel better in the car because I just have a lot of anxiety about driving. Yeah, so I feel like that's just a good thing to have in your car, just something little that you could just be like, oh that keeps me safe or helps me fine.

1:13:36 Yeah, parking. Parking is fucking stressful, dude, it really is. I hate going somewhere and not knowing what the parking situation. Have you ever pulled up to a spot that you thought I could do that. I could parallel that bitch, but you know what, there's too many people watching and you go around the block. M M. Yeah. I did that once, and I did it. I was like, I can do this and it was on my left side. Oh boy. And then I assume was a houseless person watched me the entire time and laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed.

1:14:21 So I'm given to understanding because I couldn't do it. It took you a while, and he laughed so much that I just gave up and I. Drove away and I found it in a bar. Oh no, I even I'm pretty sure. I rolled my window down and said, hey, can you help me? And he didn't. He was like, no, I would take her out right now. This is too hilarious. I will hip you. I just wanted some help and to not be laughed at. And no, which I don't blame him. It's pretty funny, dude. Parallel parking on the left side is not right. It's just not right. It's not right. It's Portland. It's not right, not right.

1:15:05 I agree. Well, have a crazy yes, Friday the thirteen. We'll see you next Thursday. Or wait what we do Thursday, Friday, Thursday, Thursday, Friday, Tuesday. We don't know what day it is. It's like a whole thing, you know, Wednesday, Humpday, Thursday. Everyone. This is a good reminder when our episodes come out on Thursdays. Cut your nails because it's for wealth. Oh, there you go, you're welcome. Yeah, we got you. All I could think of was of Star Trek. Yeah, Resistance of Futile which stop it? I did it again. Okay, I know it's Star Trek. I know that.

1:15:51 Time. I always say Star Trek like because it's close enough, and it's also funny to like say it wrong. I know it's wrong. So the last episode I did, I said Star Trek and I know it's Star Trek. Okay, just leave me alone. I thought you said Star Wars. No, I'm not that bad. Oh yeah, totally. I just Track and Track are not that different affords. And it's just funny to say things wrong and then like it's fun for us, I say it ironically, and then sometimes it slips through un ironically and ironically. Anyway, what are you gonna do?

1:16:31 Sue me? Okay,
