3:07You'll like it. It's easy to get to. You can just get it on the Amazon. And at local stores. Okay. Let's start with your television tonight. Survivors on episode three. Everybody caught up. I am caught up. Oh, good. What do you think? I love it. Yeah, it's a great season so far. Compared to 49, too. So I haven't watched survivor probably since I was in elementary school. And then I watched 49 because we were going to talk about it. And they're so the new age players are so formulaic like they know the game so well they've been watching it since they were an elementary school that it was so boring to watch. 49 like they weren't doing anything interesting and they thought they were. And so it's so cool to watch the new age players and then the OGs and their playing styles and they're obviously really leaning into that. And the OGs are playing like OGs. They haven't been watching the show. So they still remember the show the way they played it. It's so much more fun. The weird stuff they're doing and the games they're playing. I am so here for it.

4:12I I'm really two episodes in. So you could catch up with us and watch this. But it's on Wednesday nights and I'm with you. I think it's I've found it to be. And there is some comfort in knowing all the players. There are a couple on there. I'm like that person. I don't know. I have no memory of that person. I will agree with with Bob on this one point. 49 sucked. Yeah. It was a bad season. It was I thought the casting was not awesome on it. And the dummies who made it to the end thinking that they were just killing it. If that chick Sophie had used her steal an advantage thing to take Rizzo's idol from him, she might have won the game. Like that would have been such a move. They let Rizzo run that game. And so it's so great seeing him get put in his place this season. Well in Savannah too. I know. So it's it's a good season. And there's some good personalities on there. And it is fun to watch three kind of work her magic like that chick does. And but

5:17then she immediately got rid of Savannah who was on to her. Like people know how to replace. She's very crafty. She knows how to redirect like nobody's business. She's really good. Survivors on tonight. There's also a little something called Zootopia too that is streaming now on Disney Plus starting today. I put the trailer up. There's there's a series of books. They're the Dr. K Skarpeta books. She's a like a forensic. I don't know. She she does autopsy and stuff. And she's like a forensic investigator. I started the these. I started it and didn't and I thought you and I had the same exact. I think we both around the same times. We saw that they were going to Nicole Kidman is playing the character Skarpeta on the that's the name of the show. It's an Amazon show. Oh, she's a medical examiner determined to catch a serial killer connected to one of her earlier cases. Jamie Lee Curtis is in this two playing her older sister. The trailers up at the CERN Vinnie Facebook page. But the the books are so dated. They are set like maybe in the late 80s or the first ones anyway.

6:23Late 80s early 90s. I she's I didn't like her at all. I stopped reading it. Couldn't connect with her. I think but I think we had this conversation while going like maybe a year ago we decided we'll all let's try these books because there's so many of them at part of my grind, which is just only an alcoholic would say this. But part of my grind was she drinks shibli. Who drinks that? Like what are you talking about? Right. She pours just of a glass of shibli after a hard day of you know carving carcass. Hmm. She gets home and has a shibli. I don't even know what shibli is. Kind of why? Yeah. What the hell? Yeah. Yeah. She just I I could not connect with her in those books at all. And I love reading like long series of books. So anyway, Skarpeta the series premiere is tonight on Amazon. I bet they'll make a good TV's like the premise is good. They just the execution wasn't for me. The Nicole Kidman who is the star of this. She said recently that she knows how to perform an autopsy now. And for career overflap she can become a medical examiner.

7:27She was she was on the tonight show and she shared that she knows how to perform an autopsy. She went method in order to portray K Skarpeta. She said learning about the human body was part of her job as an actress. And she studied with a medical examiner. I can remove all the organs I can name them all. I can remove the lungs and the liver and the gallbladder and the intestines. She's vaguely Australian. But isn't that funny? I'm like, okay. So you watched a few things and yeah, so kind of butcher. Yeah. Yes. I could probably do that too. Just hack the body open and pull out all the stuff. And we all did a frog before. Yeah. I loved that. We did a ride. Oh, we also did a roast. We did a cat. Oh, why did you do a cat? What? I don't know. Did the cat? What I think that is horrible. A cat? A cat. That was what that's what we did in upper-level physiology. We did fetal pigs. We did those to start and then we worked our way up to a cat.

8:32That's horrible. A cat seems like those are like, they're a dime a dozen. They're not. So there are people's pets. There's cats everywhere. There's dogs everywhere too. You're going to do one to do it on top of the other dog. No, because people are weird about dogs. The worst part is that they they came from Mexico. It's like, what? Going to Mexico and stealing people's cats is. Oh, my God. And suddenly the show has taken a horrible turn and moving on. Jesus Christ, you guys. There's a new show on ABC called The Greatest Average American. Actually, it's been on for a few weeks, but I was reading. This is, I think Dave Bergazzi is behind this. The premise is the contestants have to compete to prove that they are the most average, the greatest average American by guessing how 100 poll Americans think and live. The winner of each episode can win $67,920, which is based on the average annual salary in the United States. That's a little on the nose, but I like the setup of the show. It's reminding me of family

9:35feud. Exactly. What I was just thinking is that whole. What do they call that? The final thing at the end where they shoot 10 five or 10 questions. Yeah. Yeah. Like a speed round kind of thing. Yeah. There's also a two-part documentary. This is called Dirty Rotten Scandals. America's next top model. This is the Tyra Banks thing she was talking about. This is the new one. It just came out. The first one has Tyra's approval. She's in it. Okay. This is different. This one's different. This one, this one, this is like the answer to the way she spun it in her. Exactly. Exactly. It's a bunch of former contestants talking about how they felt exploited on America's next top model and some of the stuff that they went through. Janice Dickinson is in this one and she will say whatever. Yeah. She was great on that show. I loved her. I loved that show. I was a big fan. Also, I know we've talked a lot about a lot of stuff and it got gross there for a second,

10:35but survivors on tonight. Don't forget about that. Some of our biggest celebrities started out as reality show contestants and I have a few here. I feel like they left a few people off. The first person who popped into my mind was Elizabeth Hasselbeck. I can't even remember what her name was when she started, but she was on season two of Survivor. I can't remember either. Yeah. For a while, she married a new scholar. Yeah. She married Brad Hasselbeck. But then she went on to be on the view. She's like the conservative voice on the she was the conservative voice on the view and she absolutely her break was going on survivor and being just adorable. Well, for a minute there, there were that Colleen ended up in a movie. An actual movie. I mean, it was a Rob Schneider movie, but still a real movie. Yep. Where is she now? Living quietly somewhere. I hope she's happy, but yeah,

11:35she certainly didn't lead to more acting jobs. There is a British show called Find Me a Supermodel. And when he was 20 years old in 1998, Tom Hardy went on it. Wow. Tom Hardy said, went on a British show called Find Me a Supermodel, which I guess is like Britain's next top model. Emma Stone. Oh, she married a guy named Tim. Tim has a lot. You put good to you. You know, let me give you a point. I can't find her real last name, though. It's Del Padre Filarsky. Oh, that's what it was. Yeah. What? I'm looking at that word and going, I don't know that word. That's her maiden name. Del Padre Filarsky. Wow. Elizabeth Filarsky. Yeah. Del Padre Filarsky. That doesn't ring a bell from the show, but okay. I thought she was like Smith or something. Emma Stone was on VH1's in search of the Partridge family when she was 15. Oh, wow. This show was like an 04. The goal of the show was to

12:38cast a remake of the classic show. She actually got the role of Lori Partridge, the eldest sister, that's Susan Dees role. And a pilot was filmed, but it was it never aired. But that she was on a kind of a star search for a very specific show. You know, you told the story of Christina Applegate going on a date before Brad Pitt broke through and you see the picture and he is Brad Pitt the whole time. But this is before he's done any movies. Domyn Louise was two plus years away. And you just go, oh, these people did have to learn their craft and did have to try out like everybody else would. And so it's not that we shouldn't be that surprised. Emma Stone did not start out a huge star. She started out taking whatever gigs she could get. Yeah. And it's a very, you know, the whole overnight success thing where it's like overnight for who? Right. Just all you people who never heard of me before yesterday. Nepo babies. They get it. Yeah. They do. MTV had a hidden camera show called boiling points.

13:45Oh, I remember that same. I want to say didn't. No name. No name. No name. No name was the voiceover for that for boiling points. Is that right? Yeah. That's so cool. On that show. Yeah. He was the he was the voice that would say, all right, we've got John coming in to pizza place. And he's going to order a pizza without any cheese or any tomato and yeah, whatever it would be. So was the show around here? No, he would just do the voiceover. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Probably shot in LA. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, Lady Gaga was on that at age 19. I remember that. I remember the story. Yes. Yeah. When she got famous, I remember that she had been on bullying points because they I've seen this. I've seen the scene she was in. Oh, yeah. I've never seen or heard of this show. It was on MTV and it was. I left them a long time ago. Yeah. Long before they were doing like I watched videos. Yes. But as soon as they started doing TV shows,

14:45she was on it in 2005. I was long done with MTV. Yeah. I didn't even see any of the real worlds. I would say think impractical jokers, but mean spirited for boiling points. Oh, okay. Trying to hit somebody off. Can you push this person before they. Oh, right. It's in the name. Oh, so there she's sitting. There is no names voice on this. I don't know. I hope so. Me too. Yeah. Where am I going? Oh, I guess the best one took it away. Oh, wow. Lady Gaga looks so young. Oh, that's Gaga. Yeah. That's why I'm showing it. And so why do you leave? That's great. Oh, wait. She's not the actor. She's the person being bullying point. Would you put that in your mouth? It has to go over it. I'm going to give you $100 anyway because you're a winner on MTV's boiling point. Okay. Oh, yeah. I'm 100. Hold on. Oh, Stephanie is what they called her.

15:47So is that just a crazy coincidence that she was on that or was she cast in the whole show as fake and my mind's being blown? I would go with cast and being fake. Kind of like all those radio stations that call people and protect it. Or every show. And you know what's weird is how much YouTube stuff is fake. And I shouldn't be surprised. My kids fall for it and love that stuff. But I'm looking at it gone. That isn't. Guys, what are you doing? You're being duped. Bob told me I was being duped. I was watching these videos of large people going crazy at buffet lines because it couldn't take enough food. What? Yeah. And there's a lot of them. And I'm like, man, I can't believe how often this happens. And Bob, like, that's a fake, dude. Probably I can't believe how often this happens. I keep seeing these videos at my feet. Oh, there's your algorithm for you. Yeah. So Lady Gaga was on boiling points in 2005 at age 19. Jennifer Hudson did American Idol, which I feel like that's not a forgotten thing. She somehow

16:52only came in seventh. We actually, that was when we quit American Idol was when they didn't like Jennifer Hudson blew my mind. I think she did the circle of life or something. It's something from the Lion King. And I was like, that I was getting chills. I was freaking out. And they're like, I don't know. It was a little pitchy. It wasn't that good. And she wound up going off the show seventh. And I said to John, I'm like, I think I'm done with this show. Like I always disagree with the judges. And that was 04. It doesn't matter anymore. She went on to achieve an egot. She's one of the rare people who's got an Emmy. Grammy Oscar and the Tony. Thank you. I don't, I don't sit down and watch her show. But every now and then I'll see like the TV will be on that. The J head show. She is stunningly beautiful. Like really smoking hot. I don't really listen to her music, but she's Jesse Buckley who's up for an Oscar for Hamnet. She in 08. And she seems young. But in 08,

17:55she competed on there's a UK talent show called I'd do anything. I'm not sure what she did. I don't like that. I know. Don't do anything. It's giving toxic. So UK of them. Yeah. Yeah. It like have some standards. Don't do anything. I do some stuff. Well, run it by me within my boundaries. Tiana Taylor, who was another 2026 Oscar nominee. She's the wife in one battle after another bingo. Oh, thank you. Great. I knew she was. I saw her on SNL this year. She was on my super sweet 16 in 2007. I just saw clips of this on my feed. Oh, funny. That show was insane. Talk about rich kids, Manny. Those super sweet 16 shows. I definitely watch one or two of those. And I was like, who on earth? I was like, I'm watching a kid be ruined by the family's wealth. What like these spoiled brats who have like just in

18:58Timberlake performing at their fun mitzvah. Oh, no, I guess it's their, it's their 16th birthday. This is as sweet as it gets. And they're living in these mansions and stuff. Oh, it's crazy. And every single episode, the kid gets a giant like a car. Well, there's 16. Of course they get a car. Some badass ride. Beyoncé and Kelly Roland is preteens. They competed on star search in a group called Girls Time. This was 1993. Justin Timberlake also did star search a few times in the 90s. Apparently the first time he was 11 years old going by the name Justin Randall, he lost every time. I think Brittany was also, they don't have her on this list, but I think she was on. She was on star search. Yeah. Well, those guys were also Mickey Mouse clubs. Yep. Yes. With Ryan Gosling. Yep. And Christine Aguilaro was on there. Yeah. 925 says, Kirstie Alley was a contestant on the match game. Oh, yeah. Well, people have to start somewhere. Let's get my, let's get on TV. I want to get myself on there.

20:00This morning I saw just a list of the highest grossing animated films of all time at the global box office. And I probably would have put a game together, except that I was like, I don't, I don't know this the number one movie. What do you think the number one movie? This is animated movies of all time. Which one has grossed the most at the box office? Not frozen frozen. The original is at number six with 1.31 billion frozen two is at number four with 1.45 billion. Is it already Zootopia? Zootopia two is number two with 1.86 billion. Could it be the movie you and I starred in cars? Cars is not in the top 10. Toy Story two. Toy Story two is not in the top 10. Toy Story three and Toy Story four are numbers 10 and nine, respectively. And they're at about 1.0607 billion. At number eight, so that's 10 and nine. Toy Story three and four,

21:03three and four. I guess also four is 10. Four is number nine. Oh, 10 is three is number 10. Number eight is minions, original. 1.16 billion. The Incredibles two is number seven with 1.24. Then frozen the original. Then at number five, the Super Mario Brothers movie, which is a recent one. 1.36 billion frozen two. Number four inside out two is number three with 1.69 billion. Zootopia two is number two with 1.86. You'll never guess it. Okay. It's from China. Oh, kneeza two. Well, I haven't seen it. I've never even heard of it. I couldn't guess it. I don't know. animated movie in the world ever. There's a global box office 2.26 billion dollars at the box office. Kneeza two. What that tells me is that and this is certainly true of Zootopia that they're watching our movies over in China. They watch our animated movies too. I'm sure they do. I've heard

22:09that they will actually make changes to movies that get released in China just to not offend Chinese. Well, you standards. Oh, yes. We want the Chinese money for the box office. Yes. Kneeza two though. I've never heard of it. I wonder if there's a overdubbed version available. I mean, it must be a good story, right? If it's the number one grossing animated film of all time. Vinnie, you've mentioned that one of your kids struggles with anxiety, right? Did they see inside out two? Yes. Did you feel like that was there a conversation after you guys watched? There are lots of conversations. This is one of those things that we will be cruising and it's non-existent and then it comes up and we find ourselves struggling all of us struggling with how to deal. How do we deal with this? Because it can be as something as simple as the drive to the place we're going. Yeah. Where you go? Who doesn't want to go to Tahoe? I don't. I don't want to be in the car.

23:13I don't want to deal with the. Oh, it can be that. It could be we're going to Hawaii. I don't want to go. Doesn't want to fly. You go, what the? It's Hawaii the whole time. Like what are you kidding me? And then it can be about other things too. So obviously, we don't see it coming as my point. It's just right. It pops up when it does and it's we're struggling with it a lot actually. I just really love the way that movie handled the concept of anxiety. I absolutely agree. Those movies are brilliant. What is coming up in the news, Ben? Are you a hot wife, Sarah? Yeah, I am. Okay. Guys, it's no use putting it off. The best time for an underwear refresh is now.

28:37mid-70s today and sunny. Like we'll look out the window. Yeah. We're broadcasting live from downtown San Francisco. Look at like a good one. Bright blue sky and it's just getting started. It's a good day. Scott Budman's in the building. I know. I can't even look at him yet. It's going to distract me. So I'm going to just get to my stories. And then we'll do a game. And then he's going to do some reporting for us. Yeah, I'm excited. Yeah. This is good stuff. Okay. So I asked you Sarah and I assume you don't know what the hot wife term means. But I said a hot wife. I mean a hot wife. A hot wife is a term for a married woman who has relations with other men with the full knowledge consent and often encouragement of her husband. That's not just like an open marriage wife. That's yes. That's that too. That's a hot wife. But the hot wife term is being used as a lifestyle.

29:38Oh, I'm a hot other people. This is what a lot of people are looking to to stay married. Which is weird because you'd think the whole being with other people outside your marriage would be the opposite of helping you stay married. But that's the the goal. I always think when you open the door to other people in a marriage, that is the beginning of the end of the marriage. And maybe you should just ended it at I would really like to bang someone else. Oh, this is over. I see. I got it. All right. I do believe that we have seen especially in the last, you know, maybe 20 years and especially with the young people coming up, they look at traditions and they go, no. Yeah. No more traditions. We're going to not do that. Right. They're so evolved. These societal norms don't fit me at all. Right. Or what I want to do. Right. Well, it is all human consciousness. So the answer is no. New research suggests many couples are quietly rethinking what

30:42commitment looks like behind closed doors, finding that honesty, not secrecy may be the key to deeper intimacy. So come and straight out with it and saying, I want to do other people. But stay married to you. I want to stay married to you. That's got to hurt though. That means that one person has all the power in their relationship. Like I know that whatever I dish out, you're going to take it. It's possible because I do think there are people in that position. Yeah. Who would find themselves saying, well, I'll take, I do anything for you. I'll take you, however I can get you. Right. And I, they may even be people who said, I draw the line and then the person goes, okay, well, then I guess we're done. All right. Hold on. Let me move the line. So this doesn't, right. I can see that, right? Wouldn't that eat you up? I mean, like, realistically, there aren't, I don't believe there's that many people who could put up with that.

31:47Well, okay. But let me say this. Let's say you're married. All right. And you have kids. And you know what divorce looks like. You know how that goes. And it's not going to go well for anybody. Right. And then you add to that that you love your kids more than anything in the world. Right. And now the person you're married to and says, I don't want to divorce you, but I am going to go do other stuff. Hmm. You blow the whole thing up over that or do you start going, oh, I guess I can see somebody thinking, well, especially if, if you're good friends with your partner and you're, you know, done doing them, maybe you go, well, okay, that makes sense. I just, I guess because I'm speaking from my point of view, like, I would, I don't know that I could green light that, but I can see someone saying it is a lot easier to co-parent together, not, you know, still model good couple behavior for your kids and you have this other thing. But

32:48I just feel like it's the beginning of the end. It's like, it's like, it's poisoning the well. I don't disagree. I'm just saying that's my point. There are other big concerns in place that you would find yourself having to consider. If you were, let's say, for example, you're, you have no kids and your partner goes, we should consider this other thing. Let's open our marriage up. I would think most people would say, that's a no. You can go do what you want and I'll go do what I want. We have nut, we'll split it down the mess. Split our stuff up and beyond our way. I know that Bob will have the hot take on this on the hot way. Let me, let me give you the step. And then I want to hear what she has to say. 71% of couples have explored, not have explored consensual non-monogamy. What? 71%. They're not sure. Now, hold on, they're saying explored, not done or, you know, like they're talking about it. It's on the table. Explored

33:51it. Consider it. I am surprised as well. That's a big number. Bob, I think that jealousy runs really deep. So if it's one person in the relationship who's interested in it and the other one is really taken aback, I think Sarah is on to something that that might be the beginning of the crumble of the relationship. But I think there's a lot of people out there, a lot of couples out there who are, would both be interested in it. But these societal norms, we are so monogamous as a culture. And it is, it keeps people feeling very caged. Even when you're in a long-term relationship, a marriage, people are interested in other people. Like it's kind of human nature in a way to want to be with multiple people. So it can be difficult. It doesn't surprise me that a lot of people, 71% of people have explored it and nobody's talking about it because there's this culture of pressure, cultural pressure that it's bad, that that's wrong, that it's only cheating. You know,

34:56I feel like though, if you've married, it's maybe it's to have kids, maybe it's just to create a life together, but it's like, but we're, then don't get married. I'm with you because I feel like that is in a, and I'm not, you know, I don't believe in God and I don't think it's like this, you know, blessed union or anything, but it's a commitment that you've made to another person to create a life together. And so when you're like, it's a Wednesday night, you're like, well, I got a day to eight o'clock. Like that is not okay with me. But you're allowed to have other emotional connections and friendships in your life. And just a matter of separating the idea of sleeping together away from the partnership that you've built with each other. Do you think if somebody has an emotional relationship with somebody that that's cheating? Like they're, they're actually like have feelings and they love somebody. Like, you know, that happens to work a lot. Like they call them work wives and things. Is that cheating? Even though you didn't do anything. No, but it isn't. Well, right, like an emotional

35:58affair. Yeah. Like you have an emotional affair. You should fight that. I think that's worse than if you're having that worse. Well, that's because love, nobody wants to hear the thing. I want, I got to be number one. I want to feel like I'm in a relationship with a person that is the number one. And he's my number one. And I don't, and I don't want there to be any enough. You can have friends. I can have friends. We can have friends in common. But I'm not leaving you on the regular to go off on with other with number twos. Like I'm not doing. I couldn't live that way. And my fear would be that he would fall in love with someone else and have a new number one. Like the love thing is my thing. But I think that dudes are more or less about love and more about like he was better than than me or he would you think he would be. I know they're just lovers. They're just jealous. They feel ownership over you. All right, Scott. I see you listening and nodding your thoughts on this. I know he loves to weigh in on the hard questions.

36:59I mean, these are all amazing takes. The 71% seems kind of high. It does seem like a big number. But they're not saying that they went out and did it. They're saying that this is something that is on the table and being discussed, exploring consensual non-monogamy. How many people in this room with the with the person you're except you, Maddie? Well, maybe when you were married, how many actually explored this who suggested it? I mean, I guess Bob would be the only one, Bob and Susan. Have you ever had a conversation where it's like, yes, explicitly, you can go outside our apartment. Here's what I would say that's that's funny about what you mentioned before about being number one. I think, and I've said this before too, even as a single person, if I start sleeping with you, I'm probably going to really like you and you'll probably become my new number one. Yeah. And that's just me knowing me. I think I would be like, this new thing is so fun and that the thing I was doing before that I never did because you know, life, now all of a sudden,

38:03we have this new, wow, it's fire. I would probably be all about it and be like, wow, you shouldn't let me go do that. I really like it. Well, then it's not for you. But I think there's a lot of married people who end up cheating on each other. And that really tears a family apart, the lying, the sneaking around, the lack of trust can never be quite rebuilt. So isn't it better to explore a conversation of, hey, you know, we're really that so many things in our life are going, are going well, but maybe this would help reinvigorate parts of our marriage.

41:15I'm Brian, I work at UDOT healthcare. So Brian, why do you care? I care because I don't want to leave anybody behind. I oversee one of the biggest resource center in United healthcare. I see people walked in in my office every day, just like my parents. They have no idea about the healthcare. I feel like they are my uncles, aunties. I treat these people like family. I'm Brian, and I'm committed to care. And so listen to this number, nearly one in three, 30% say that they've imagined sharing their partner. Imagine it. But imagine it. I've imagined it, and I want to know if that's not going to work for me. 40% believe it might be the way to get the excitement back in their long-term relationship, which many people will admit. You hear it and merit love, and you lose that spark,

42:17that fire, and stuff starts happening, and busy lives, and we haven't done it in how many years? Oh, your whole life just blow off. Yeah, that's so exciting. All right, Scott, were you you were on the verge of saying something? No, no, although I, so listening, it's so interesting, especially with younger, I say friendships at work are great. Outside, friendships are great. I mean, we're all social people, but isn't there something that like you and your husband or you and your wife share that maybe you don't talk about that's just for the two of you. And in this world where everything is so public, and even we talk about our kids and what they're doing, we talk about our careers and what they're doing. We even talk about our lives together as couples, but isn't it nice to have something that's just hours? And if that goes away, what do we have? Yeah, good point. Beautiful point. And Bob says, oh, she said beautiful point. Oh, there's so much that you can share. You can tip this up if you want. There we got that.

43:22I think there's so much that you, I mean, you share your whole life together if you're in a marriage to your point. I think making sure that your partner is your number one is the first key. Yeah. I just don't want my partner to have other partners, I guess. That's so fair. I want to be the partner. No, I do think people discussing it and deciding for themselves. One thing Bob just said is if you discuss it and your person says, absolutely not, then you've got another, then you have another conversation to discuss, which is, I'm probably going to cheat then. And well, we should divorce. Okay, it's all out there. That person who's been sitting at home going, where is she? Boy, she works late a lot. Why isn't she these, what, these work meetings? And the whole time you're at home with your kids going, oh, she's got another person. She's got a work husband. That I can see that being that's where you see these divorces go from. We don't,

44:24non-can, what was that thing that Gwyneth said? Conscious, uncouple, unconscious, uncouple. Whatever that is, like maybe if you've discussed it in advance and you've decided we're not going to end up hating each other. Let's not do that. The conscious uncoupling can happen. But if the person's been cat and around, Tom cat and around, whatever the term is, then you'd be, okay, I'm a sucker. I'm an idiot. I'm a fool. You made a fool of me. Now I'm, now I have to divorce you. Yeah, and I have to be mad about it too. And when the kids ask for acrylic nails, I'm buying them because, you know, up yours, buddy. Take a dig at that other person. I want to be the best parent. I'm so glad I'm not worried about that. 24-karat gold is pretty valuable. What is it? What's more impressive? 24-karat or 14-karat? No, that's not the question. What's more impressive?

45:2424-karat gold or cow gallstones? I'm going to go gold? Cow gallstones have become one of the world's most valuable commodities and are literally worth their weight and gold. They say the main reason is how they're used in traditional Chinese medicine. How gallstones? How gallstones? Do all cows have gallstones? Or do you sometimes cut the cow open to get the gallstones on there? Aren't any? I think like people, not everybody gets gallstones and so certain cows get them and some don't. They have a whole weird stomach setup too. Maybe they have like a grinding thing like kind of birds kind of have that, you know, like a gizzard. They have the first stomach that grinds it in a second stomach that... I think Scott knows that the fact's on the stomach. Little known fact though and we talked about long-term marriage. The 27th anniversary is actually cow gallstones. There you go. Well they're very expensive and you have to kill a cow

46:25to get them. You got to really be in the long-term. They've been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years and treat all sorts of ailments and things including hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, neurological conditions like strokes and unconsciousness. The demand for gallstones is now higher than ever before and so their price, according to the Wall Street Journal, the price of cow gallstones rose to 5,800 per ounce, the price of gold 5,200 per ounce. Oh my god. Cow gallstones are more valuable and a better investment. When we kill cows, are we harvesting the stones on the regular? Is the local butcher aware of the value of... I mean, because if you could like alter sound a cow and see that there are 10 gallstones available to be harvested, isn't the cow now worth $50,000? Would me to sign, forget

47:27the Kobe beef, etc. Well the sudden vegetarians are like, I'm missing out on such an investment. Yes, I got to buy into cows. This is so weird. What a weird story. The chances of cows forming gallstones increases with age, but you know, most of them end up being food long before they're able to develop. Well the male cows, the male cows get eaten. The female cows need to have more baby cows in order to constantly give us milk. So they live the longest. So it's these elderly female cows, Bessie. She's stuffed to the gills with gallstones. Cow gallstones smuggling and robbery have become a thing as well, where armed criminals are attacking cattle farms to get the gallstones. Because there's a huge black market. Wow. They're just killing the cows and leaving them but taking the treasure of the... Well you've heard of it. Look, treasure. The shark finning. Yeah. They just take the shark finning. Well in the right

48:30end warning. Yeah. I actually have not heard of that. That's horrible. It's a thing because they use that in medicine as well. Our tax number is 800, 400, 360, 97 and Matty's on the show. People had a lot to say about the hot white segment. Six, six, one says, this happened to me. We are divorced now. Yeah. Five, four, one. After my first kid, my husband slept with other people with my consent. I knew he would always come back and it was just a physical which that needed to be scratched. If he had an emotional connection with them, I would have an issue. The question I would have for that person is, didn't they want, so was it like they didn't want to do it? And they were saying, yeah, go ahead because... Well, maybe he probably had a kid. You're exhausted. You're kind of in that in that world and the needs still need to be met. Get off of me. Yeah. No, I get it. I just, I'm curious if she was like, I will do that for you or, nah, you go ahead. I'm out. Anyway,

49:30go ahead. Sorry. For a wait, I agree with Matty. You'd be much more hurtful if my husband had an emotional relationship versus a sexual one. For a wait. Yes, it is possible to just have sex without the heart. Says a guy who knows. Oh, well, I mean sport for sport. I think there's a lot of people who can do that. Yeah. No question. And 415, the French do it right. Men marry, take a mistress and the woman hire wet nurses. And by the way, I think that whole emotional thing that you're talking about, how did you word that? Love emotional relationship? Yeah, like that. That probably lives inside your phone, right? Yeah. Like that's a thing where you may not even see each other on any kind of right, but you're busy keeping up that through that. Okay, we're going to take a break. And when we come back, Scott Budman is going to be in this studio. And Tiana is going to defend her title in that studio. She's coming, she's coming in on a vacation day. This is amazing. It is amazing. Bridge the gap is right after this.
