Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We head outside to record and immediately prove we should not be trusted with telescopes, technology, or having a podcast. We start under the night sky and somehow end up in a wandering tour of pop culture, nostalgia, pets, small business economics, and the chaos of trying to capture shooting stars.
In this episode:
• Forgetting the plan and leaning into the tangent
• A Star Trek gripe about "full fire" visuals
• Star Wars theatrical re-release
• Ryan Reynolds comfort rewatches and persona fatigue
• Celine Dion’s voice, health, and why the documentary hits
• Captain Kangaroo across generations
• Power Rangers and Tickle Me Elmo
• The terror of silence with kids and dogs
• Trash pickup reality checks and small home logistics
• Tripod anchoring, Starlink headaches, and tech friction
• Flappy Bird and laundromat economics
• Shooting stars and testing phone astrophotography
• Old projector frustration and the "meatloaf" bit

Welcome And A Lost Recording
SPEAKER_03Hey everybody, welcome back to Marker. Yeah, we have a little something special, a little different today. Um we have uh we actually have another in the wild episode that the editor forgot about. Um and uh it was recorded before you left. Uh so I thought um I thought we'd go ahead and uh and we go ahead and play that one today. Those were those were pretty fun, right?
SPEAKER_04Yeah, those were a blast. I enjoyed those.
Bathroom Break And Space Nerd Gripes
SPEAKER_03Yeah, me too. Um so yeah, here's uh in the wild. Um again, I think we're out there trying to mess with our telescopes in this one, um, and probably failing. I would imagine. Always. Yes. Yeah, yeah. So uh hope you enjoy. Here it goes. I'm like, and I think I told you that drone has the lidar and all the you know the stuff. No. I didn't tell you this. No, fuck no. Well, if you can I go pee before I tell you Oh, Jesus Christ, little bladder. The size of proton, and there's nothing wrong with it.
SPEAKER_04Proton. Firing proton port torpedoes. No, photon. Photon. Well, mine's a proton. Okay.
SPEAKER_03Oh, that actually reminds me of a beef I have about Star Trek since we're talking about that. Which is one that continues, I mean, pretty much to this day. Yeah, I told you to, I told you, you know what? I'll I'll remind you, you may have forgotten. Since you're off Star Trek school thing, whatever, academy. Uh uh Picard season three.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Remember we talked about that?
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Yeah, it's great. Um, but no, and in that one, they did it again multiple times. This drives me crazy about Star Trek. Be like, you know, enemy ship, whatever, and uh they're like uh, you know, give them everything we got, full fire, blah blah blah.
SPEAKER_01Everything we got. It's like boom, boom, boom.
SPEAKER_03Three little torpedoes. Yeah. I'm like, you got more than that.
Star Wars Re Release Rumors
SPEAKER_04Yeah, come on, man. Yeah, they uh I heard that since uh in 27 is the 50th anniversary of Star Wars. Star Wars, yes. They're coming out with the original from 1977 and they're getting rid of all this shit that um what's his name did, you know, on the second one where it had Java Yeah, Gilo. Or G Lu. Yeah, it had him in it and stuff. It's gonna be the original one, but it's gonna I think they're gonna update it to like just the quality of it and shit. So that should be pretty good.
SPEAKER_03So I assume you mean they're talking like a theatrical re-release.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, they're gonna put it out in the theater. That's fuck.
Ryan Reynolds Rewatch Debate
SPEAKER_03It'll be a make bucku bucks off of that. Oh, yeah. They're also, I think. I guess I saw something earlier that they're making either a movie or a show with Ryan Gosling or Phillips called Starfighter, maybe? Huh. Uh I could be wrong about that.
SPEAKER_04I don't know. Yeah, I watched the Adam Project again the other night. Since the last time you told me you watched it?
SPEAKER_03Yeah, I really like that. Dude, I'm gonna okay, you know what? I'm not gonna judge because I keep I get into these things too, and it makes me want to watch it again because I watched it and I really liked it too. And so maybe I would really, really like it. No, I mean it was a really fun movie, and I had meant to watch it again, but the fact that you watch it that often means it's probably a lot of fun.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, I I I really because it the way it's set up and stuff, and I just like Ryan Reynolds. I mean, I've watched uh Deadpool a few times, oh well, all of them, and then I like the I really like the one with uh Wolverine in it. Did you Deadpool and Wolverine?
SPEAKER_03No, is that what you meant? Deadpool and Wolverine?
SPEAKER_04Well, I like the the first two Deadpools, and then now they have one? Yeah, there's two Deadpools. Okay, and then they came out with uh Deadpool and Wolverine, and it was funny as fuck. Really? Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_03Uh I didn't know that. Did you watch um Van Wilder? Oh, dude, a hundred times. Well, it's okay, it's interesting. So the reason I ask is because like me too, and I really like Ryan Reynolds too, but like I'm feeling it's starting to wear on me a little bit, his whole shtick, you know? Oh, really? Because he's always kind of Ryan Reynolds, and maybe in the Adam part it well, he's always got that thing. Um but I mean like he's great. The only thing about Deadpool I've ever seen, and I don't even know if this was in the movie or not, but it was uh Celine Dion singing. Oh, Deadpool 2, yeah. It was in the movie, yeah. I think it fucking died because it was in the movie. I don't know. It may have been just a promo thing, right? But she's singing, you know, and just blowing it out, and he's in the theater, and he's like, Oh, you know, that's a little over the top. It's like Deadpool. Like, can you take it down to like a six, maybe? And she goes, she's like, This thing only goes to eleven. Yeah, that's fantastic, that's hilarious. And that thing only does go to eleven when she's singing, which is all fucked up now.
Celine Dion Documentary Surprise
SPEAKER_04No, she's actually doing better. Uh, well, okay. The stiff syndrome or whatever the hell she had. Yes. Yeah, she's doing better with that, and she credits Ryan Reynolds for it.
SPEAKER_03Uh okay, elaborate.
SPEAKER_04Uh, because of Deadpool 2 with that, it something to do with that. She really started working on her that syndrome or whatever that she has.
SPEAKER_03Well, uh, I mean, she's been working on it for a while. Um may I there's a God, I I don't know if it was a mini-series or if it's just like a one-shot like movie, but it's a documentary uh about her and that syndrome, um, which is something honestly I would never watch, but yeah, my mom knows this. But the reason I watch it is she's like, this kind of thing is not your jam typically, but you should watch this thing. It's called I Am Celine Dion, and you know, i I was like, it's amazing. So I love Celine Dion after that, yeah. As a person, and then everything like her music is objectively fantastic, not not my thing though. Um, but yeah, as a person, she's great. And so we we had watched that it's been a couple years, and then I don't know. Must have been the lat the Olympics two years ago. She opened, she sang the opening, I think the opening ceremony in Paris. I think the first time she performed that she kind of stopped performing. And so yeah, she's really I mean, she's been working at it and stuff, but God, you know, before all that shit, like her fucking voice. What a fucking there's a clip actually in the in the documentary, just like they were in the studio, whatever, kind of early, maybe earlier in her career, and they're like uh sound check, sound check, and she started she's like and she sang like this just like blew the doors off kind of thing that she can do. And they're like, whoa, okay. The sound sounds like okay, okay. Yeah. And uh she's like, so something like uh I think it just broke the the sound man's board or something like that.
SPEAKER_04She's got a hell of a voice, she's got a hell of a voice. Uh she got popular right about the time that Koi was born. Uh oh, you're right, because I think it was in '97 that Titanic came out. Yeah. So yeah. Yeah, Koi being born in '95. And then he by the time I got home from Long Cruise, Koi was starting to crawl. And there was one Celine Dion song that my mom would always hold him and rock him to. So then when he was really crawling, he'd crawl over to grandma to hold him, and then she'd rock him and he'd go to sleep almost every time. What song? I don't remember which one it is. Slow song? Huh? Slow song? Yeah, I think it was. I can't remember. I'd have to ask Choy if he remembers because he's that you should say, Yeah, I'd be interested.
SPEAKER_03Um, yeah, dude. Uh and then she did uh what's that thing? That fucking that that chubby British dude who had a late night show. Oh god, yeah. You know, oh the carpal karaoke. Yeah, did you ever see when she did that? Yeah, oh god, I was so in love with her. Yep, she's just a great sport, blah blah blah. She did baby shark, she's saying baby shark. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Baby shark is that. I'm like, that's the best baby shark I've ever heard.
Childhood TV Generations Collide
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Saw that work. That's tomorrow, is to get the furniture and straight out from underneath there in the black stone. And I'll just roll the barrels up here.
SPEAKER_01Roll out a barrel.
SPEAKER_04I don't remember there's the song. There you go. Oh, yeah. That was way before my generation.
SPEAKER_03Oh, yeah, that was way back then.
SPEAKER_04I probably learned that on Captain Kangaroo.
SPEAKER_03That might be wow. That might be the touch point of the crossover of our generations. The captain kangaroo? Yeah, because like just when I was very young, that was the thing. Yeah. Wasn't around for very long. That's where our tips touched. That's where our tips touched.
SPEAKER_04I thought it'd at least be Sesame Street or the Electric Company.
SPEAKER_03Uh well, Sesame Street, yes, electric company, no. Uh, I I I've heard the I've heard of it.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03I lost my flashlight, which I can't find without my flashlight. Do you have something?
SPEAKER_04That's uh where Morgan Freeman started out was Electric Company. Uh damn it.
SPEAKER_02Can I?
unknownOh my god.
SPEAKER_02There it is. Oh, yeah. All right. That corner. Yeah. Got it. Oh, yeah, I know what you're talking about now. Electric Avenue. You're gonna buck down to electric.
SPEAKER_04No, that's a fucking disco song.
unknownDamn it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, Sesame Street, we had that. Of course, that's that's not really fair because that's been going on for fucking ever.
SPEAKER_04Uh since 1969 or 70.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Um no, like Captain Kangaroo. Because I'm thinking like if there's something that was like uh in your childhood, yeah, and in my childhood, but only like in that period. Right. Because Sesame Street's been going on forever. Yeah, maybe Captain Kangaroo or uh Mr. Rogers. Mr. Rogers loved Mr. Rogers. When did that end?
SPEAKER_04Oh shit, it was in the 90s. Right. Uh well as when Fred Rogers passed away.
SPEAKER_03Oh, he did it till he died, huh?
SPEAKER_04I didn't, I don't know if because he was out before he died because I think he had stomach cancer or some shit. Okay. But yeah, like me as a kid, I remember when Mr. Hooper died on Sesame Street and shit, and then it's like they actually explained because Big Bird was asking, when's Mr. Hooper coming back? When's Mr. Hooper? And they had to explain to him that Mr. Hooper died, and that was like even at that age.
SPEAKER_03That's so unprofessional, too. You're trying to do a show, and Big Bird's like, Where's Mr. Hooper? Oh, look, it is clearing up. Yeah, it is. Uh, yeah, I didn't see that one. Um probably Captain Kangaroo. And honestly, I don't remember. Uh I don't remember Captain Kangaroo. Um, but I know it was around. I remember a guy probably a hold on, don't just don't stop me until I get to the end. Like a sort of old old or like not old, middle-aged ginger fella. A little chunky, maybe kind of a little fat. Little no chunky, in a red and white stripes outfit. Did I get it?
SPEAKER_04It wasn't striped. But it was old. So I got like one thing out of seven. Yeah, I got it.
SPEAKER_03I'm gonna look it up now.
SPEAKER_04Because he actually was the clown on howdy duty in the 50s.
SPEAKER_03Okay, see now you've you've gone too far in the other direction. Oh yeah. He looks like Scotty from Star Trek. Yeah, with the mutton chops and shit. Yeah. Oh god, he's terrifying. Oh my god, he's awful. Him and Mr. Green. Oh, no wonder everybody's so fucked up. Yeah. He looks like a raper. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Jesus Christ. Take it back, undo.
Power Rangers And Toy Mania
SPEAKER_03Oh, well, that was 19. So 1955 to 1992. So. Yeah. Because I was at born in 83, so 92 out of 9. So yeah, you know, a couple years there. I might remember something. Power Rangers. Oh, that was before after your time. Oh, the Pink Power Ranger. What about her?
SPEAKER_04She was fucking odd. Was she?
SPEAKER_01How could you tell? She would they had the Power Rangers.
SPEAKER_04No, when they weren't when they were in their civvies. Oh, that's right. Yeah, because the kids' brother would watch the Power Rangers and the Mutant Ninja Turtles and shit like that.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, so that let's see. Rob was born in '88. Okay, so that was a long time. Well, quite a bit before Koi. Because I was thinking, well, maybe you do remember even not having a kid that age. Do you remember the fucking Mania? Like over the Power Rangers? Like toys and shit? Oh, fuck yeah. Oh my god. Because Rob was so into it. Yep. And I remember my parents trying to just trying to find like a megazord or whatever toy. Like fucking couldn't find him.
SPEAKER_04Well, when Koi was little, it was the sleeping Elmo or whatever the fuck it was called.
SPEAKER_03Oh, Tickle Me?
SPEAKER_04Yeah, the Tickle Me Elmo.
SPEAKER_03That's so creepy in retrospect.
SPEAKER_04And he wanted to Or do you want me to touch you, Elmo? Yeah. And then he wanted one, and we happened to walk into a KB Toys in Vancouver, just not in the mall, but by the Target. And they had like six of them. I'm like, are these then? And the guy's like, yeah, if you want one, you better get it because people are gonna start just fighting for them. So we bought a koy one that lasted all of up like five minutes. Did it break? No, I got tired of it. We just got tired of it. Of groping Elma. Yeah. Teddy Ruxpin. That's Teddy Ruxpin. Put Ozzy Osborne in the fucking. So you had that as a kid too? No, that was kind of right at the end of my you know grade school era.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Yeah, we had a Teddy Ruxpin. Uh and then gosh. Well, one thing that we had, of course, well, of course, Legos, but I guess we had Legos. Uh well, we didn't for a while. We had the off-brand ones and they were terrible. Oh, yeah, we had that's what we got. Yeah. At some point we eventually got some Legos, but and then the other army guys. Do kids have army guys anymore? They still sell them. Have you ever seen kids as army guys? Because you know, you'd have you set up all your army guys. And then you blow them up with firecrackers. Yes. Yeah. You had a whole like bucket of army guys. Yep. I should get a bucket of army guys for Robbie as a gift. And you just be so you'd be like, what is this?
SPEAKER_04You can get them for Kai and you can put them around the cactus. Oh. Kai would probably love the army guys. Yeah, he would. He's at that age now at four.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Hi, Callie. Hi, Callie. Hi, girl. Bailey's kind of jealous, is uh. Imagine that. Bailey jealous. Yep. Oh, jealous. Yep. Ah, Bailey. Ah, Bailey, how are you? Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Huh, my pup must have gone to sleep. Huh. She's been quiet for a while. Bailey, no, we don't need to do that, sweetie. I'll see that or she's inside doing something terrible. No, she's locked in her pen. Ah. Since she tore up those napkins.
SPEAKER_03Why don't you prepare for image enhancing? Yeah, so that was another fucking thing. I was dealing with the Starlink and shit earlier. And while I was uh I was in the house and I was back and forth, blah blah. And uh at some point I was like, God, Hartley's being really quiet right now. Whatever he's doing, it's been really quiet, and I appreciate that. And then at some point I go out and he's chewing on a uh milk jug. Oh shit. And I'm like, no. So I put two full trash bags on the back of the golf cart. Oh my god, I go out there, it's fucking everywhere, Mark. Oh fuck. Yeah, it's like it's just it's one of those things, you know, like you've had kids, you know. I've heard Rob tell me. It's like when you have little kids, the worst possible sound you can hear is nothing.
SPEAKER_04Oh, definitely. Definitely. Yeah, I was gonna call the trash company and see if I can't put my trash on hold for a month. Oh, um what why would you what do you mean well because they they they're gonna come out and pick up my fucking cans, you know, all the time.
SPEAKER_02They don't they don't pick them up.
SPEAKER_03I mean are you worried about paying for it or no, I'm not worried about paying for it. I'm worried that here's what you do just just turn them, either pull them back in, right, or turn them away from the root street. Okay, because if that's how you know that's how they know is if they're on the street facing the road, then they check them. But if you have them just turn and the the smart ones, they don't always do it, but smart garbage men will when they empty them, they'll turn them around to face back to your property. Uh uh, so yeah, just turn them around or just pull them up on the driveway.
SPEAKER_04Pull them up on the driveway, yeah. Because somebody came through, one of them came through without a garbage truck. It was the middle of the week, and they grabbed the one that's been sitting out there on the road this whole time.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04And put it right back next to the other one. Oh, and so when they came the other day to to dump it, I don't know how the hell they grabbed it, how far their arm goes out or whatever, but they dumped it. Oh Mark. What?
SPEAKER_03No, no, no. Hold on. Oh, Mark. Like my mom said, Oh Mark. Yeah, they don't have a grabby arm. They have a guy. Oh no shit. Yeah, they have and that's why that's what you you've seen me do my trashes, right? Yeah. Double bag all the you know, all the time. They because the guy gets down, he opens the lid, and he pulls the bags out himself. Oh they don't have an arm thing. Oh fuck, I thought they had an arm thing. No, they don't have one.
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_03So you know, the more you know. Yeah. Oh, it moved it. God damn it.
SPEAKER_04Well, that makes me feel better than it's I can leave them right up there, but yeah, I'll pull them up.
SPEAKER_03Um my tripod anchor thing mabooby works works really well. Oh, that's good. Yeah, because I had it running for like three minutes. It's on a 10 second interval right now. It was running for three minutes and I came back over here and it hadn't captured anything. I guess because it was moving too much. And then I anchored it and it was running for about a minute, and it had captured like 40 seconds, so like it was actually capturing. But then the bad news was after I anchored it, uh well, obviously I moved it a little bit, probably. What? Okay, I take back everything I just said.
SPEAKER_04Ryan and technology.
SPEAKER_03I'm not good at it.
SPEAKER_04Don't get there.
SPEAKER_03Hang in there, Sanjay.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, exactly.
SPEAKER_03Five seconds. Oh, okay. Well, if I get ten, that'll be great. Almost dead. Yeah. Okay. Um Yeah, man. Apps. Those are hard.
The Million Download Kid App
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Seen a little kid. He wasn't little. He was like in third grade. This was like 10, 12 years ago. And he he uh came up with a game on an app and he posted it for free. And within like two months he had over a million downloads. How long ago was this? It was like 10, 12 years ago, I think. Flappy Bird, right? Flappy Bird? It might have been. Because like, okay, finish your story. Sorry. But yeah, then after that, it's his parents like next one he does, because he just got a book out of the library and learned how to do it. Oh. This is or something like that. This is next next one he does, they're gonna charge a dollar. It's like, well, yeah, if you get a million fucking downloads.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, uh, well that I know, right? Well, the the Flappy Bird story was I'll have to look it up. It's been a while since I had read about it, but it was something like a totally different story, but like whoever developed it, like the developer, he did it and put it out there, and like of course it became wildly popular. And if I recall, I think like he was basically like, ah, I don't want to deal with all this like publicity and money, and like he's just like, I'm out, and he just disappeared and took the game down. And so, like, at least when I was reading about it back then, the whole thing with Flappy Bird is like if you had on your phone, then you had it, but nope you couldn't get it otherwise. Oh shit.
Car Wash Economics And Easy Revenue
SPEAKER_04Dude, I was watching a guy today that me too. Uh yeah, wrong guy. But he has uh he bought a car wash and for one week he made over$19,000 or something in a car wash. Yeah. Like fuck. He's put a lot more money into it. No, yeah, he said that he there was some for sale around where he bought his uh for like two mil. Yeah. He bought his for like$340,000 with an eighty thousand dollar uh construction thing, you know, to upgrade it. Yeah. And then he put in like$50,000 himself. Wait, so he's in for four five hundred thousand, right? Pretty much. Yeah. But he fucky he says uh he does the best in winter time after a snowstorm. Yeah. Or shit like that. But it's like, holy shit, that's a moneymaker.
SPEAKER_03Well, it is it actually is um 19,000 a week. Is that revenue or profit?
SPEAKER_04Uh it would be like 13,000. Well, he said his monthly expenses are about six thousand dollars. Okay.
SPEAKER_03Um, so I'll tell you this about car washes. It's um it's it takes money to get into it. You have to find them and then like if you can find the cheaper ones like him, then you have to get them up to snuff and whatever. Once you get it going, like it's I mean very low. I mean, you still have to pay for chemicals and employees and shit, but it's pretty low input. Um but the other thing about car washes is a lot of people have got figured this out that that exists, the opportunity. And so it's kind of like thrift stores. You remember like back in the day, thrift stores were great, and then viral and wise out, yeah, they're fucking terrible. Um I actually listened to a podcast about this about car washes, people. I have a podcast I think you would actually like. It is called The Economics of Everyday Things. And they basically are like, what's the deal with car washes? Like, how does somebody get into that? What does it cost to buy it, to run? What do they make? And they're 15 minutes long tops. They're super short. Oh wow, I think you'd like it. I probably would. Yeah, I'll send you the one about car washes and you can see what you think. Um they're like bite-sized podcasts, yeah. But they're usually pretty interesting.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, because Kloy uh has always talked about a car wash or uh laundromat.
SPEAKER_03That's uh there was an episode on that too. Um same podcasts, and laundromats are very similar to car washes in that uh you buy into it and either you pay like a decent amount for it or you pay less and then you renovate it, whatever. And then you have like a very low effort continuous revenue stream. Uh, but again, it's sort of become like the thrift stores and stuff, like people are onto it. Yeah. But like uh that was a really interesting one because like one of the things is like they've got quarters, like coin, like pounds, like hundreds of pounds of quarters, you know, how do you deal with that? And then the the the guy they interviewed, he's like, we don't we just try not to, like we just try to put them back in the machine, yeah, like put the quarters in the cash machine. But then they were talking about like you know, you it's like what's your yeah, I think you asked him like what's your biggest like day-to-day sort of obstacle? He's like, dryer lint.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Because I guess like they have this whole wall of dryers, and it all goes to a central thing in the back, and like, you know, they gotta keep it cleaned out and shit, but then if they don't, uh whatever. It's just and then and then you get into like with a car washer, a laundromat, electric, you know. Yeah, like for you know, for a normal household, uh dryer is one of the biggest users of electricity. Yep, and so you got you know 50 of them or whatever. Yeah, I'll send you those two episodes. Yeah, maybe maybe as a podcast host, you can get into a podcast.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, no shit.
SPEAKER_03Yep, or like Robbie, you'd be like, eh, they're boring.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, because I went to the one. If you go through the circle at Crockett, you know, when you go past the pharmacy and stuff, and then turn and head towards Whataburger, there's that quick lube right before the stoplight. Oh yeah. And then there's a car wash in there. And I went in there to wash off the truck when I was down here the last time by myself. Fucking truck didn't even fit in this son of a bitch. Trucks too long, trucks too wide. You changed subjects from laundromass car washes. I know.
SPEAKER_03Was it an auto cut? It was a manual one, right?
SPEAKER_04It was a manual one. They had an auto one, but you couldn't have a hitch in uh receiver in, you couldn't have this, you couldn't have that. Bed had to be cleaned out, and it's like, nope, not happening.
SPEAKER_03Dude, I saw a video today um on Reddit. You probably saw it because you look at stuff. Um, it was a guy who'd gone through one of those auto car washes where like the ones with the brushes and stuff, yeah. But in the bed of his pickup, he had a reel of just wire, like very thin, small wire, like hundreds of feet of it, and it just got fucking tangled and snared and on the other cars. Like, oh what a fucking mess.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03I think this is turning out okay. Oh, it looks like a sombrero almost.
SPEAKER_04Hard to believe that shit's out there. Oh, oh, it's out there. Yeah. Yeah, I figured this weekend I'll get your help to put that canopy on. Yeah. Whatever you can.
SPEAKER_03I've only moved it 17 times for you so far, so no, not the not that one. Canopy for the truck. Oh, yeah, I haven't done that yet. I'll yeah, I'll do that. I mean, it's it I'm sure it's heavy, but not for two of us will be fine, right?
SPEAKER_04It's about the same weight as the fifth wheel hitch. Okay. Yeah, perfect. Rob put that fucker in there so good. You gotta it it sits down in those slots.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
Shooting Stars And Phone Astro Mode
SPEAKER_04And then uh one of the feet, you actually have to hit it a little bit to get it to line up, but it makes it tighter than shit. It's really nice. Good. So yeah, he did a great job on that one. Uh cat.
SPEAKER_03That's not how I spell a car.
SPEAKER_04Oh, dude, shooting star. Did I get where where was it? It was over here. I can't see your hand. Relative to your truck. Uh oh shit, there's another one just went that way. Was it relative to what? You might have got it in your your w the second one I just saw. Oh, okay. The first one, no, because it was pretty much over the over the tree.
SPEAKER_03Okay, so I'm doing an astro with the phone from the hood of the X-bed toward the back of the X bed. Was it that direction? Yeah, yeah. Oh, maybe maybe. I don't I can't really. We'll see. That's a great answer. I mean, well yo, I don't know. No, I have well, I'm doing the telescope, but then I put my phone to do an astro over here. That'd be cool if I got it. I was trying to get like just a little bit of tree in it.
SPEAKER_04Right. You know, it's nice. That might have been up at too high of an angle. But yeah, that's another thing I want to work learn before all the fucking shooting stars go. Yeah. And then we can face because it said Orion's belt, you know, Orion, and all the shit was happening over here when you turned around. It's all behind us.
Old Projectors And Family Chaos
SPEAKER_03I know. Yeah. That reminds me, it's been a while since I've heard Orion. Yeah, Orion. That was that was that wasn't bad, right? That wasn't bad at all. You think anybody's done that one before? Oh, yeah. Oh, god damn it. So I got nothing. I got no original jokes. Is that what you're saying? Neither do I. Christina said, after three years, I repeat myself. You do repeat yourself a lot. I know. But uh Oh, I had one. I'll I'll ask you this because um I wasn't sure if this was the original joke or I heard somewhere. But that night that like we'd been fucking around that projector like for days, but there was one night where both of us were doing it. We spent like four hours on it, and like we started and like the film goes in and then it breaks, just like, oh god damn it. And like and then you don't have the motor running, but the lamp's still on, so it burns the film. Oh, yeah. Like, oh shit. So we're going through all this stuff, and it didn't work, but it kind of worked, but it almost wouldn't work. And it's I'm like, oh, we're getting so frustrated with it. And I was like, you know, I kind of I feel like I'm not seeing any movies, but kind of getting a feel for the experience of watching movies. And she's like, Oh yeah, it's like it was a whole thing. Because you know, the uncles would be over, blah blah blah. Everybody's there, you know, in the living room, and the thing never fucking works, and it was always breaking. And I was like, Yeah, I can just imagine it, you know. Like your dad with a cigar, cigarette, like, goddamn this fucking thing. And then your mom comes out, she's like, What's wrong with it? And here's here's the joke that I thought was my original, but I'm not sure. And then I'm like, your dad's like, God damn it, we won't get back in the kitchen. That meatloaf meatloaf ain't gonna dry itself out. Oh shit. Is that my is that?
SPEAKER_04That's pretty new, yeah. You have you heard that before?
Final Laughs And Sign Off
SPEAKER_03I've heard about meatloaf drying out not get your ass back in the kitchen because the meatloaf's not gonna dry itself out. Have you ever heard that joke? Uh-uh. Me too, yeah. I was like, She's like, Where'd you hear that? I'm like, I think I just came up with that. But she was fucking dying, and then I was getting all into it, and I'm like, God damn it, I'll knock you across the coffee table one more fucking day. Yeah. Yep. Oh, I think it's done. Yeah. And then I was telling her, like, I could just fucking see this, you know. You got fucking uncles, cousins, everyone. We'll show you the whole video from our trip to Disneyland. And then you're over there, the fucking things breaking, blah, blah. And then, like, you know, when your uncle's like, well, we got, I told you get that one from Montgomery Ward. We got that one, it doesn't skip like this. You're like, God damn it, Bill, shut your fucking mouth. Yeah. Well, that was fun, right? Kind of there's lots of stuff in there that I forgot about. Uh we really again, I think the takeaway is we really shouldn't be allowed to have a podcast, but anyway.

SPEAKER_03There you go. Yeah, we'll have to come up with a name for that one. In the whatever, in the drink.
