18:02

this like reaction every time I see a clip of

18:04

his show now and it just like brings me so

18:07

much peace. Yeah. And I think it did that for

18:09

a lot of people. Yeah. He had a pet squirrel.

18:11

Did you know this? No. Yeah. And the pet squirrel

18:13

is in like a couple episodes. And

18:16

then when he passed his son was doing

18:18

the show or I think maybe before he passed

18:21

his son would be like a guest on the

18:23

show. Like a spitting image. Yeah. And so it's

18:25

really sweet. It's like Steve

18:27

Irwin and Robert. Like

18:29

literally also paints the same landscape.

18:32

Copy paste. Cute. Man

18:34

dude. That's what a bummer. That's

18:36

like losing a real one. I

18:38

know. That's sad. But welcome back.

18:40

Welcome back. He's still here. Yep.

18:42

Reincarnation is real. Okay.

18:44

Here's our little mini deep dive.

18:46

1997. Amando Carrillo Fuentes, a Mexican

18:49

drug lord, undergoes plastic surgery on

18:51

this day in Mexico City to

18:53

change his appearance. He underwent plastic.

18:56

No. He underwent facial plastic surgery

18:58

and abdominal surgery liposuction to change

19:00

his appearance on July 4th 1997

19:03

at Santa Monica

19:05

Hospital in Mexico City. However

19:08

during the operation he died of

19:10

complications apparently caused by either a

19:12

certain medication or a malfunctioning respirator.

19:14

There's very little paperwork regarding his

19:16

death. So but he died from

19:18

something while getting plastic surgery.

19:20

Well I don't think you're supposed to get

19:23

so much at once. No. And lipo is

19:25

really dangerous actually. Yes. I hear.

19:28

I mean this was

19:30

25 years ago. Yeah.

19:33

It said two of Carrillo Fuentes' bodyguards

19:35

were in the operating room during the

19:37

procedure which doesn't see. I thought

19:39

he was gonna be killed. And it said on November 7th

19:41

1997 so a couple months

19:43

later the two surgeons who performed the surgery

19:46

were found dead encased in

19:48

concrete inside steel drums with their

19:50

bodies showing signs of torture. Can't

19:54

believe it. That

19:56

tracks. A

20:00

bottle of Carrillo Fuentes was assessed to

20:02

be worth around $25 billion, which

20:05

would be $40 billion today. Who got his money?

20:07

His family? I don't know. Somebody. Mexican

20:09

government maybe. How insane is that? Insane. I

20:11

imagine I'd have a pretty shaky hand if

20:14

I was the one doing the operation. Yeah.

20:16

Yeah. I know. There's under such pressure. The

20:18

two bodyguards are just like standing. That's high

20:20

stakes right there. That's high stakes. Extreme

20:22

surgery. 2012, the

20:25

discovery of particles consistent with the

20:28

God particle, were

20:30

announced at CERN. What is the God particle?

20:32

The God particle? Yeah. I don't know. Oh,

20:34

I thought you would know. I, I feel

20:36

like I did, but you said that you're not

20:38

like a CERN person. Uh, we're

20:41

going small. I'd like to think big. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

20:46

2015 your first hot dog fact. Oh.

20:48

On July 4th, 2015

20:51

Matt Megaton Stoney. No,

20:53

Matt Megatoad Stoney. Megatoad.

20:57

Megatoad Stoney in an upset defeats

20:59

eight time hot dog eating champion

21:02

Joey Jaws Chestnut at Nathan's famous

21:04

Coney Island with 62 hot dogs.

21:07

Joey Chestnut. He just got banned from the

21:09

upcoming competition. That

21:12

is happening today. Is it today? I mean, isn't it on

21:14

July 4th? Oh yeah. Yeah. I

21:17

think Joey Chestnut is banned from this competition.

21:19

I don't know. Let me look it up really

21:21

quick. But I, I've seemed like something we need

21:23

to know. I just read that Joey Chestnut has

21:26

been banned. Maybe it's

21:28

steroids. Maybe they found

21:30

PEDs. Maybe steroids help with your

21:32

Oh, to still eat. Oh,

21:35

he's still going. Yeah. He will not be denied

21:37

his victory. Um, let

21:39

me see what it's. Let's look into

21:42

this. He was barred from participating in

21:44

this year's official Nathan's hot dog eating

21:46

contest due to his endorsement deal with

21:49

meat alternative producer, impossible foods. But El

21:51

Paso's Fort Bliss had no qualms about

21:53

Chestnut's business interests and extended his own

21:55

invitation. Oh, so is he doing a

21:58

different one? I

22:00

don't know about all this. You

22:03

gotta get animals. I love this. You gotta make

22:05

your money. He doesn't care But

22:08

that's the animal. That's a big move

22:10

for Joey chestnut To

22:13

be doing an impossible deal. They must be paying him

22:15

lots of money. A lot of money. Smart. They probably

22:17

taste pretty good I mean, I don't like hot dogs

22:19

at all. So I'm not gonna like it even if

22:21

they taste like a hot dog Right, but if you

22:23

like hot dogs, they're probably pretty good. Yeah burger

22:26

meat tastes the same to me. It's all ground up Whatever

22:28

anyway, well, maybe mega toad is gonna be

22:30

really mega toad Stoney

22:33

mega toad sounds like a really cool like super villain.

22:36

I love it. Yeah in 2019

22:39

toot in common, you know King Tut

22:42

Their bust was stolen and sold

22:44

for six million dollars at Christie's

22:47

six million dollars Don't you think it'd be sold for

22:49

more than that? Yes King Tut's bust I

22:53

don't know what these things go for normally,

22:55

but that sounds like Six

22:57

million dollars does not seem like that much

22:59

money right now a priceless piece of history.

23:01

It's priceless 3,000 years old a

23:03

3,000 year old Egyptian being bust Like

23:09

a statue its head, you know

23:11

King Tut. Yeah, of course. Yeah,

23:13

what do you think I am? Of course, I know King

23:15

Tut. Okay. Well you will like you're like, what is it?

23:17

I'm just trying to assess the value in my head

23:19

I'm doing calculations. I would think it's over six

23:21

million dollars. It's worth whatever someone will

23:23

pay for it It's just like you could buy like

23:26

a like a house in LA

23:28

for six million dollars Isn't Nicolas Cage go

23:30

like bankrupt buying a bunch of like pieces

23:32

of history? Yeah, you've definitely bought an octopus

23:36

Okay, though. Oh, yeah. Well, yeah, apparently

23:38

Nick Cage's new movie is making people

23:40

sick It's so scary. I was telling

23:42

Jared about it last night. It was because it was gory Should

23:45

we talk about a celebrity going

23:47

bankrupt Kevin Spacey? Well, he was

23:49

found not guilty of Everything

23:52

when when you went to court

23:55

Oh and it still ruined his life This

24:00

is what I'll say about actors. This is what's tough. First

24:04

off, you're living a life that is

24:06

so hyper accelerated in terms of capital

24:09

and what you're spending month to month like nobody

24:12

can relate to you in the first place. Yeah.

24:14

Second, you're a

24:16

fucking actor. And so you can go on as many talk

24:18

shows as you want and you can be as convincing as

24:20

you want. But I don't believe anything

24:22

I've seen. Yeah, because I know you're a good

24:24

actor. How's cards? He's scary. Was a

24:27

great show. I saw his interview. I

24:29

think it was Piers Morgan. I don't know what he went

24:31

on, but I was like the one where he was talking

24:33

about losing everything. Yeah. So that's the one that got me.

24:35

And I was like, fuck, dude. It was Piers Morgan. I

24:37

still was like, I don't think so, bro. Like you're

24:40

an actor, a professional one. I just

24:42

really want to believe him. Yeah, I

24:44

don't. I don't. I loved him. Yeah.

24:47

He's got like this. He's a little psycho. You remember

24:49

what he did? Like right off the right off the

24:51

rip after all that shit came out. Being gay is

24:53

an excuse for. That was its own thing itself. That

24:56

was like the end of his, his like apology. Was

24:58

like him talking about like, oh, at the end of his, oh,

25:00

by the way, I'm gay. So I couldn't have like done any

25:02

of this. Yeah. He

25:06

like almost immediately started showing up as Frank

25:08

Underwood in character doing interviews about how he

25:10

couldn't have done any of this stuff. Yeah.

25:12

Which was a fucking bizarre maneuver. Really weird.

25:14

And that's why I say like now when

25:16

I see him, like I know you're a

25:18

good actor. Yeah, it was really creepy. It

25:20

was kind of like OJ being like, I

25:22

didn't do it, but if I did, here's

25:24

how. Here's a book. Yeah. Yeah. And it

25:26

just. Dude, it just threw me

25:29

and it's like, yeah, dude, with

25:31

actors, I don't know. I just all

25:33

it's like a magician. Dude, I don't trust

25:35

you. Yeah. You could deceive me easily.

25:37

Yes. So I don't know. Oh, in 2021,

25:39

research researchers reveal that there are 14

25:41

living descendants of Leonardo da Vinci. Really? That'd

25:44

be a fun descendant. Yeah. I mean,

25:46

genius. Yes. Wonder if I'm one of them.

25:48

I don't think so. Yeah, probably. He's

25:50

Italian. Yeah, that's true. Wouldn't that be crazy

25:52

if you're one of the 14 and

25:54

this was announced? I think you would know

25:57

years ago. I think you'd know. I

25:59

think they probably would have told. Told you. We

26:01

explained a lot. Would it? Yeah,

26:03

artistic ability, visually. Yeah. I'm

26:05

a great painter. You're pretty good. You're better than I

26:07

thought you would. Jack's always shocked. Yeah. and

26:10

be like, I don't believe that you're capable of this. She's

26:14

the artistic one. Yeah. No,

26:16

it's pretty good. Maybe you're a Michelangelo. Maybe.

26:19

Or wait, maybe you're a da Vinci. Da Vinci? I'm

26:21

not Italian. I am. Okay.

26:25

Our Florida man story of the day. I'm ready. July

26:28

4th. I don't know what year this is. Florida

26:30

man without a driving license shows cop

26:33

homemade mixtape when pulled over. Ooh.

26:36

That's what I'm talking about. Velveque

26:38

Louis Jean Jr. Was

26:40

among the three drivers who almost ran

26:42

into the Atlantic community high school bus.

26:45

Cops were present at the time and they formed

26:47

a little blockade to make sure that nobody could

26:49

escape. A cop asked him for

26:51

an ID and instead he handed the officer

26:53

his homemade mixtape thinking that the officer would

26:55

pop the CD and the disc changer. The

26:58

cop was inspecting the tape and the guy just

27:00

sped off with the other drivers, hoping

27:03

that he would just be let go. He

27:05

was arrested later that day. No, no

27:07

kidding. Here's the thing. You gotta be way more famous

27:09

than that for this to work. Yeah. Justin

27:12

Timberlake himself, not capable of getting

27:14

out of this. Still didn't work. So the mixtape.

27:16

So the fame doesn't help. Not gonna work. Yeah.

27:19

I love that though. Hand him a mixtape. Yep. Who

27:21

knows what's gonna happen? Might be nostalgic. A single tear

27:24

could fall from his eye. That's true. You

27:26

might feel it. Something. Well, we all just want

27:28

to feel something. Right. And maybe

27:30

it's just some unnamed mixtape that we get. Yeah.

27:33

I'm sure it's amazing. Okay. Today's

27:36

little phrase is French, I

27:38

think. Les

27:40

carats son cuties.

27:44

It means the carrots are cooked, which

27:47

means the situation can't be changed.

27:50

The goose is cooked. The goose is cooked. The...

27:53

It says it's like the English phrase. It's no

27:55

use crying over spill melon. There you go. Le

27:59

care, le care. Carrots son

28:01

quits. The carrots

28:03

are cooked. Do you think you're saying that right? No. I
