Chapter 1: Do flamingos really mate on one leg?

141.882 - 142.282 Unknown Female 3

Gotcha.

0

143.123 - 146.466 Elizabeth

And you know what I'm talking about. You always say wrap it up.

0

147.023 - 153.567 Unknown Female 3

Yeah. No, I understand what you're talking about. I don't know if I understand exactly what the point that you're trying to make.

0

153.587 - 156.208 Elizabeth

Well, just that Cody is going from wife to wife to wife.

0

156.628 - 157.849 Unknown Female 3

But they're all his wife.

158.489 - 173.558 Elizabeth

I know. But to know that that, and I'm sure, I'm guessing it's probably uncut. Not that, you know, you got to take extra care. He's going from wife to wife. Wife to wife is really a lot to deal with.

173.658 - 200.779 Unknown Female 3

Well, this is the thing. I still now I think I have a clear idea of where you're getting at. My confusion was, are you saying you're worried about a risk of STDs? Because these are all your wives. No, it's just like shmegma. Okay, for one, I don't even think you actually even really understand what shmegma is now. I don't. But maybe you do. I don't. Let's, come on. Let's keep going here.

200.799 - 223.391 Elizabeth

Okay. What subject would you like to discuss today, Andrew? Does it have something to do with medieval art or some scientific discoveries about the genesis of flowers? Or I'm trying to think of really highfalutin.

223.811 - 231.536 Unknown Female 3

I do have one thing that I wanted to tell you that I hadn't told you yet. Because as we mentioned last week, I went to the zoo to cover the Betty White stamp thing.

Chapter 2: Why do some public restrooms lack mirrors?

637.408 - 646.491 Unknown Female 3

Okay, so any guesses as to why the fucking went up when they're in this bathroom as opposed to when they're normal?

0

646.511 - 647.951 Elizabeth

Because it's a smaller space.

0

648.071 - 649.371 Unknown Female 3

That's what I thought.

0

649.411 - 659.094 Elizabeth

But that's also like humans, you know, when you're like holed up and also you feel like the world's about to end. I mean, it might be just a primal thing.

0

659.656 - 662.062 Unknown Female 3

Well, that is not the hypothesis, my friend.

662.082 - 662.683 Elizabeth

Okay.

663.364 - 674.663 Unknown Female 3

It was the mirrors. They thought there were way more flamingos in there.

674.683 - 676.404 Elizabeth

It wasn't because they were freaky.

676.504 - 678.364 Unknown Female 3

Yeah, exactly, exactly.

Chapter 3: What is the pink fairy armadillo and why is it rare?

800.918 - 809.93 Unknown Female 3

Oh, that's more of a forest service type restroom. And to that, usually there is a mirror, but not maybe not as many mirrors.

0

809.97 - 810.832 Elizabeth

There are no mirrors.

0

812.521 - 812.781 Unknown Female 3

None.

0

813.061 - 824.267 Elizabeth

And then actually there was a place I went to at the beach, no mirrors. And I wonder if it has something to do with not wanting people to break them and use the mirror glass to cut something.

0

824.287 - 829.65 Unknown Female 3

Well, you think in Lake or Beach, you think there's going to be people with exposed toes and whatnot.

830.13 - 830.47 Elizabeth

Right.

830.57 - 832.391 Unknown Female 3

Maybe we don't want those breaking.

832.651 - 838.094 Elizabeth

Right. Wow. Flamingos. Who knew?

838.514 - 841.336 Unknown Female 3

Who would have thunk it or known it?

Chapter 4: How long do different animals sleep each day?

847.136 - 850.499 Unknown Female 3

Yes. Wait. Yes. Are you messing with me?

0

850.78 - 850.9 Elizabeth

No.

0

851.917 - 853.318 Unknown Female 3

I have something perfect.

0

853.698 - 854.219 Elizabeth

You do? Yeah.

0

855.74 - 858.882 Unknown Female 3

This is almost going to feel like we produced this. I swear we didn't.

858.962 - 877.734 Elizabeth

Well, I'm asking because our son's doing a project on animals. And here he did, he had to make, what was that called? A diorama. And he did that. He did the report. He's very smart. Yeah. But for some reason, the students who finished early were told to go learn about another animal.

877.874 - 878.095 Unknown Female 2

Okay.

878.395 - 890.841 Elizabeth

And so he was telling me about, and I've never even seen these. It's pink fairy armadillos. And oh, they're so cute. They kind of look like worms.

890.861 - 891.321 Andy

Okay.

Chapter 5: What happened during the Tai Chi class that felt like a cult experience?

1024.249 - 1030.951 Unknown Female 3

You were wrong there. A domesticated cat sleeps for 15 hours. A lion sleeps for 19 hours.

0

1031.552 - 1031.932 Elizabeth

Whoa.

0

1032.072 - 1035.633 Unknown Female 3

You're the king of the fucking jungle and you ain't doing shit.

0

1035.973 - 1038.054 Elizabeth

Yeah, that's true. Good for you.

0

1038.454 - 1046.137 Unknown Female 3

But that makes sense that they could. They're like one of the only things in the jungle that could sleep that long because they don't have predators.

1046.557 - 1049.318 Elizabeth

I mean, they do have predators, don't they?

1050.158 - 1052.559 Unknown Female 3

I don't know. I thought they were the king of the jungle.

1053.517 - 1054.158 Elizabeth

I think you're right.

1054.718 - 1059.302 Unknown Female 3

Oh, and okay, one last one. This is very interesting. Okay, an elephant or a shark?

Chapter 6: How do people react to Crossfit culture and community?

1471.015 - 1471.715 Unknown Female 3

That's where those should be.

0

1472.396 - 1485.483 Elizabeth

It's definitely, unlike the kind of hipster Pilates and yoga studios that I'm used to in L.A., it's much more, almost feels more like community-centered.

0

1485.764 - 1489.966 Unknown Female 3

That totally tracks with what I would imagine a Tai Chi place would be.

0

1490.086 - 1491.007 Elizabeth

Yeah. Okay, great.

0

1491.147 - 1491.327 Unknown Female 3

Yeah.

1491.547 - 1497.33 Elizabeth

But I get there, and our teacher, I'm going to call her Joy, welcomes us.

1497.691 - 1497.871 Andy

Mm-hmm.

1498.573 - 1503.523 Elizabeth

And it's so interesting because our kid, like, can sense things.

1503.804 - 1503.964 Andy

Mm-hmm.

Chapter 7: What are some experiences with customer service at UPS stores?

0

1511.914 - 1517.856 Elizabeth

But she first like has us pull up chairs to the desk that is like also the office.

0
0

1518.977 - 1525.199 Elizabeth

And starts to ask us questions that seem not relevant at all. And to the degree that I'm like.

0

1525.44 - 1528.481 Unknown Female 3

What's your address? What's your social security number? Stuff like that.

1529.961 - 1533.483 Elizabeth

Yeah. I mean, address, not social security number.

1534.907 - 1536.432 Unknown Female 3

She asked for the address.

1537.374 - 1537.655 Elizabeth

Yeah.

1538.357 - 1540.463 Unknown Female 3

What? Do you hear yourself?

Chapter 8: What are the hosts' thoughts on Trader Joe’s Sparkling Limeade and Tate’s Soft Bakes Cookies?

1639.503 - 1664.686 Elizabeth

I think it's bigger too. Mm-hmm. But anyway, that's what she's having us focus on and we're doing. I'm like, can we just, are we learning anything? Basically, I felt very duped. Like I paid $80 for us to take this Tai Chi kind of class. But I'm like, is this what a class is? There's no information being shared. There's no, I don't know. It was really odd.

0

1664.846 - 1669.507 Elizabeth

I did enjoy kind of the flow of it, but I was checking in on Otis and I was like, is he okay?

0
0

1670.427 - 1683.57 Elizabeth

To his credit, he, like, went with it and did a really good job. And she was very effusively, like, good job, you know, giving him compliments about, like, following it.

0

1683.79 - 1684.03 Andy

Yeah.

1684.51 - 1687.21 Elizabeth

But then there was, like, a lot of hands-on stuff.

1687.45 - 1687.71 Andy

Mm-hmm.

1688.431 - 1691.731 Elizabeth

And I, we were on mats at this point in time.

1691.751 - 1693.632 Unknown Female 3

Mats on top of squishy?
