I thought I was protecting the world. You know, you get so many years, and we've made it both around one more trip around the sun since I saw you last time. Yeah. And Willie Mammoth's had a built-in escape. You get six sets of teeth. When the last set is gone, you starve to death.

And that's all they wanted to do. I went off on this a little bit recently about the way we portray mammoths being the extinction caused by humans. I'm going, no, you got it all wrong. We live with them side by side for tens of thousands of years. What if we kind of lived together? What if we went out and collected their wool and made clothing?

I've seen the spear tips. You're not going to stick that through five inches of fur, three inches of skin, leather, to hit a vital organ in a woolly mammoth thrown by a guy from me to Jamie. First of all, you're not going to get that close. It'll stomp the shit out of you. Wooly mammoths have 10, 12-foot tusks. They just don't stand there going, oh, stick a spear in me.
