Crypto Torture Case Update

Speaker 1 0:04

Welcome, welcome, welcome back everyone. We're back here to slip it in with you and there is some big news that just dropped relating to the crypto torture we talked to you about last episode. Yes, tmz has videos of the crypto torture victim partying it up with the crypto bros and various women during the time he was supposedly being held captive.

Speaker 3 0:30

We're getting right into it.

Speaker 1 0:33

I told you I'm like following this crypto torture like no tomorrow and this news just dropped.

Speaker 2 0:39

I still can get over this crypto bros.

Speaker 1 0:42

Well, I know it's an easy way to like kind of talk about these guys. The other thing that's going on and this is like crazy to me is that rumors are swirling that joe biden's niece, carolyn biden, was once romantically involved with one one of the crypto torture bros, william de plessi. Wow, yeah, this is according to page six. Apparently they're not currently together and it's unknown exactly when they dated, but some point in the past they dated previously and caroline biden is joe biden's brother's daughter and she has kind of a sketchy criminal past too, so she was a few of those biden's yeah well, and she and hunter apparently were very close.

Speaker 1 1:25

She also went to rehab, she also had a DUI. Well, I don't know if Hunter actually had a DUI, but he had some problems Allegedly, it's all allegedly, and she also allegedly borrowed over $100,000 on a stolen credit card that she was using at a high-end pharmacy in New York.

Speaker 2 1:41

Oh, my God With this crypto it keeps on giving I know right, I do love a pharmacy.

Speaker 1 1:52

So, and the other thing that's kind of interesting is this William DuPlessis, who's one of the crypto bros charged in this case. He was known in the New York party scene as always trying to say that he worked with the CIA and was doing big arms deals with them and that he was going to run to be a senator in Kentucky. So clearly he was like glomming on to Caroline Biden, thinking he could get a little back step in the political door with the Bidens.

Speaker 2 2:19

Talk about an update right here.

Speaker 1 2:20

Well, yeah, exactly Well. And William Du Plessis. He's been charged, just like the other guy, with kidnapping, unlawful imprisonment, assault and weapons possession.

Speaker 2 2:31

He is currently in jail and his bail was denied is that I kind of I love when I'm being proven wrong and I got a little taste of this next gen NYC show and I gotta say, megan, I'm so in.

Speaker 3 2:52

Me too, I haven't. You should give it a try, you should.

Speaker 2 2:56

And then, especially like with Charlie, which is our attachment to this story.

Speaker 1 3:01

Yep the Crypto Torture case.

Speaker 2 3:02

He is a cutie.

Speaker 1 3:04

Oh, he's very, very handsome and, for everyone who doesn't remember from the last episode, he was on the scene when the crypto bro was.

Speaker 2 3:12

John waltz was getting arrested with his robe and his penis probably dangling.

Speaker 1 3:17

Yes exactly, and charlie's right there next to him, and charlie used to frequent this house, so, yeah, I was surprised. He's very handsome and it was interesting to hear that his father was this wealthy, like Wall Street guy who's basically funding Charlie's lifestyle.

Speaker 2 3:37

Yeah, and I think that I texted you right away when I was watching the episode. I said Megan, this Charlie guy, he looks like he's lived a life, so I'm sure that he, even though he has not been charged or he's not even a suspect on this whole case.

Speaker 2 3:54

There's something going on that I think is going to come out on this show, which I don't know if you watched the first episode, but even Ariana Bearman, that is also part of this Next Gen NY nyc. Listen to this man, maddie her. She found out two years ago that her parents took all her money just like, what do you mean? Took it like just she. She used to be like a big influencer, right, yeah?

Speaker 1 4:22

she's she was doing brand deals on, like Instagram and stuff. Is this the girl that?

Speaker 3 4:25

went crazy.

Speaker 1 4:27

No her.

Speaker 3 4:27

Oh, that's, amanda.

Speaker 2 4:29

Amanda Bynes oh yeah.

Speaker 1 4:31

No, Arianna Bierman is just the daughter of Kim.

Speaker 2 4:34

Zolciak Bierman and Kroy Bierman. She's a former Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Speaker 1 4:39

Yes, and she's been doing brand deals since she was 14. And she found out a couple of years ago that, basically, her parents were just taking her money and using it to spend all of it oh she has no money from all these deals she did since she was like super young. It's insane.

Speaker 3 4:54

So that means in my mind Father's Day this year for the buying.

Speaker 1 5:01

Croy, croy Bierman. He's a retired NFL player.

Speaker 2 5:04

You guys, I don't watch this show you don't watch it, but it's gonna be awkward father's day no it's going to be an awkward father no necktie for dad no necktie for dad.

Next Gen NYC Show Connections

Speaker 3 5:16

But speaking of dads, it is june. Uh, father's day is coming up and we wanted to take a little moment today to give a shout out to all of the dads and fathers out there, almost binarily in the sense of like, oh, it's a day to give love and appreciation to our dads, our fathers, our stepfathers, et cetera. But, being the group here that we are the Slip it Ins with a couple of gay people on the podcast, not Megan O, just for the record I didn't, I would I would well, I would have got.

Speaker 3 6:07

I would have got a follow-up from her after the show to be like can we be real clear about this?

Speaker 3 6:13

anyway, um, the gay community has uh, obviously had somewhat of a complicated past um, over the years and, uh, as such, uh, in many ways, the gay community has taken father's day and kind of um, you know, redefined it for their community specifically, and so today we're not just honoring our dads uh, dads everywhere but also we're talking and honoring the daddies, the zaddies and those dill I love adults and I love me a zad those dilfs I love a dilf.

Speaker 2 6:47

And I love me a zaddy.

Speaker 3 6:48

Well, I love me a daddy.

Speaker 1 6:51

So you know there's a Dilfs at Disneyland Instagram account. What, yes, so? Where people take pictures of hot dads at Disneyland and then post them on there? I didn't know about this, but I'm going to follow after this episode Dilfs of daddies, waitills, dills of disney, I said dills of daddy.

Speaker 3 7:09

That's like the best of both worlds yes, yes okay, well, do you know what it like? What do you consider a daddy to be versus a zaddy to be?

Speaker 2 7:20

for me is that is that kind of a state of mind like a very stylish, well-groomed man. That is how I can define a zaddy.

Speaker 1 7:30

Well, and I think a zaddy is really an older, wealthy man who's super stylish and dresses well, Boop boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.

Speaker 3 7:41

That's just it. I just did a little research. You're both are kind of correct, but wealth isn't necessarily a requirement, but often associated with the word zaddy. So, according to searches, a zaddy is a stylish man that you would notice in the room, so I would say, handsome, but with a sense of style, whereas a daddy regardless of what he might be wearing. You just are like wow, that man is handsome. Maybe a dad I'd like to fuck. Oh, that's a dill.

Speaker 2 8:17

You can still do it.

Speaker 3 8:19

The lines get a little blurry.

Speaker 2 8:21

I do have to say that two of my favorite zaddies just came back from uh disney. So I don't know if they were. They are part of this uh delves of disney happening, but they were just there and they they enjoyed it with their family right there on disney oh, yes, very much, so love it.

Speaker 1 8:43

I do love anderson and andy. Yes, ac2 ac2. Yeah, I need a tour soon well, I think, matt, we could safely say that our dads are probably not zaddies. They are not the most stylish on the block, yeah, no, very much so so, luckily though, our dads were friends, which is why I think we're friends to this day yeah, I'm.

Speaker 3 9:12

I'm thankful that they were heterosexual, non-daddies, zaddies, otherwise we wouldn't be here and we wouldn't have become best friends.

Speaker 1 9:23

You can't be a zaddy and be straight.

Celebrating Dads and Zaddies

Speaker 2 9:26

I think so I don't think either term is related to gay. Well, you're right. We've given that title, but it doesn't mean.

Speaker 3 9:33

Could you really see, like I can't say, like I'm going to know who to be against, I can't wait to see your zaddy no because my dad's clearly not a zaddy, but no, because my dad's clearly not a zaddy.

Speaker 2 9:44

But there is somebody like Pedro Pascal. He is definitely a zaddy.

Speaker 3 9:48

Right but is he? Definitely straight.

Speaker 1 9:51

We don't know. George Clooney is definitely a zaddy. He is a zaddy You're right, you're right, you're right.

Speaker 3 9:56

So our dads could have been zaddies. I think mine was a zaddy back in the day he was homecoming king.

Speaker 1 10:07

Well, was he stylish that's the key style.

Speaker 2 10:08

I mean as much as one can be in the midwest no, okay, all right I love, I love that your country daddies, uh, were able to meet right um, right around around the street and things like that. Unfortunately, you both were not able to meet my dad, but I do have to say that when my dad passed a couple years ago, you both turned a very sad moment, a very sad situation, into a joy and a wild ride and was that a wild ride, I do have to say I, you know, I, my dad, passed a couple years ago, like I mentioned, and it was a very sad um situation.

Speaker 2 10:53

But maddie and megan jumped on a plane right away, like the besties that they are, and they surprised me with, uh, with the trip there and um, we booked our Airbnbs. Make sure that we had a pool day at a hotel nearby for Megan 100%.

Speaker 3 11:11

yeah, a pool. And can I just say that like so Megan and I traveled together and we're like going in. We wanted to obviously honor your father and you know his spirit, but we also said to ourselves like we need to make kind of take his mind off of it and, you know, look for the opportunity to like have some fun and distract jj. I didn't anticipate how much fun we would end up having. I mean a little, I did go a little.

Speaker 2 11:44

I mean we even have a little side of blowjobs as we were going to the rainforest.

Speaker 1 11:48

Do you remember me? Oh, I could never forget.

Speaker 2 11:52

Not from us.

Speaker 3 11:53

You better clear this up real quick, but go for it.

Speaker 2 11:56

Well, we were. You know, a family member offered us to take us into this tour into the rainforest.

Speaker 1 12:03

To go see waterfalls?

Speaker 3 12:04

Yes, that was our goal.

Speaker 2 12:05

We were all chasing the waterfalls because they're beautiful there in Puerto Rico.

Speaker 3 12:12

But then, as we were traveling Well, to be clear, they were in a car in front of us.

Speaker 2 12:17

Yes, they were guiding us.

Speaker 3 12:18

And we were in our. So us three were in our own car and they were directly in front of us yes, they were guiding us and we were on our. So us three were in our own car and they were directly in front of us and, you know, I started to notice like he. It was him and his girlfriend at that time, at that time and I noticed all of a sudden like it looked like she kept dropping things like what is she dropping?

Speaker 1 12:39

well, and on top of that, was like random stops too long stops at stop signs and we were like frustrated because we couldn't get in to do the hike to go to the waterfall, because we didn't have a reservation. So we were basically randomly driving around and we were chasing waterfalls, for sure, and we would get to these stop signs and we just sit there and we're like like this is not a four-way stop.

Speaker 3 13:03

And there's nobody else like go already.

Speaker 2 13:05

Yes, and we were in the middle of a rainforest, like to Maddie's point, like there was no other people but us driving around.

Speaker 3 13:11

And then we were starting to put two and two together. We're having a long period of stop at a stop sign and all of a sudden we're seeing one head instead of two heads in the car, and there was a moment that Megan even mentioned.

Speaker 2 13:23

it's like what is? There is some shenanigans happening in this car and then of course I mean it's a family members are trying to deny us, like there is no way that something is happening there. But we really, when we made a stop, that we actually got out of the car. I kind of confronted my family member and said what's happening there and Megan mentioned is there blowjobs happening?

Speaker 1 13:45

So I even asked them. He didn't deny it, 100% did not deny it. We were right on the money, totally on the money.

Speaker 3 13:54

On the money Ding, ding ding.

Speaker 2 13:57

It was too much, it was crazy, but you know, we turned this around and we we had a bacardi um cocktail class. You remember, maddie?

Speaker 1 14:07

I remember most of it I remember most of it.

Speaker 3 14:11

Yes, that went off the rails.

Speaker 1 14:12

Well, and we there was like the class was set for 30 and there was maybe 20 people in there and so we went to the back where no one was and all the empty seats were around us and they had alcohol and like whole mixer setups for each person and then, because people didn't show, there's all these extras. So during the class, when the instructor wasn't looking, we would sneak back and take the alcohol at those empty stations and had double, triple drinks that we were making.

Speaker 3 14:44

We definitely did. And then, knocking over our martini shaker, the ice bucket. The ice bucket knocked over and ice went everywhere and the instructor's like we okay, back there.

Speaker 1 14:55

Yeah, we really were struggling after our third triple drink that we had in this class.

Speaker 2 15:01

Picture this we are here in this cocktail class for probably like what? Two, three hours almost, and then, when we're done with this, we went to this gazebo to get a drink. And next thing we know Maddie, I don't know if you remember I remember we're like where is Megan at? She's picking up glasses from Bacardi that she loved.

Speaker 1 15:23

They were glasses that were meant to be taken home. They're souvenir glasses and they were great, thick, hard plastic glass that's perfect for outdoor drinks.

Speaker 3 15:33

And fast forward. She wanted me to keep these cups at my house.

Speaker 1 15:38

She still does. You wanted them. Don't act like you didn't want these cups.

Speaker 3 15:43

You wanted them in a specific cupboard so that when you came here and you wanted a glass of.

Speaker 1 15:48

I wanted to use them for my outdoor drinks, because you make issues with the glass drinks outside.

Speaker 3 15:53

I had no room for them in my actual glass cupboard, so I made room for them in a sidebar. And then I'm like nope, they're going in the garage sale.

Speaker 2 16:02

Well, I still have mine, Megan, I still have mine, and every time Megan comes and visits, she knows that she can get that.

Speaker 3 16:08

So now you're the owner of these glasses. I have a set of eight.

Speaker 2 16:11

I have a set of eight there and just to wrap it up, this beautiful trip that Maddie and Megan made so that my uh moment with my dad was, you know, turned into a joyful one, I just I have to say that, after that day with Bacardi, don't you remember, megan, that my aunt was waiting for us for?

Speaker 1 16:33

day drinking, yes, and as if we hadn't already been yes, we'd already been drinking, drinking plenty of hours, all day.

Speaker 2 16:41

It was an upgrade and it was like beer after beer and after beer.

Speaker 1 16:48

Yes.

Speaker 2 16:48

It was insane.

Speaker 1 16:49

We would go a block, and then she would get us another drink.

Speaker 3 16:52

It was the weirdest thing.

Speaker 1 16:53

And we're like, oh my God, like I barely drank the last one At one point I had like three lined up and I'm like you have to tell your aunt, jj, like no more, I can't take it.

Speaker 3 17:03

But don't you also remember like it wasn't just a stop at a store. It would be like a stop at a store, open the door and it's like hey, Jimmy, hey Betty, they knew everyone at all these stops what is going?

Speaker 1 17:14

on yes.

Speaker 3 17:14

I'm like, are we on like a little beer tour?

Puerto Rico Trip Memories

Speaker 1 17:19

I thought maybe your aunt was involved at the mob and was going around allegedly.

Speaker 2 17:28

I think that this is like the true testament of like the people from puerto rico. They just want to be a big host. They knew that you, maddie and megan, came in to support me in a very sad um moment and very sad circumstances of my dad's passing and I think overall it was a great way to honor my dad and to turn um that moment into a uh kind of a uh uh, uh. Unite us more.

Speaker 3 17:57

It definitely did. And I would say that that last day where we were doing this roundabout with your aunt um, you know the the rum thing was pricey, remember? Yeah, but like, and then we're like okay now, like we kind of blew our wad on this event, but no, the aunt took us around and we had drink after drink after drink after drink after drink and it was all free, I'm like, oh man, this is a cheap day oh my god, yeah, talking about a cheap day, that kind of reminds me mad that it's.

Speaker 2 18:27

It's kind of an an homage to your dad. Oh it's, didn't he used to say, like it's a cheap night, oh yeah, with our card plane.

Speaker 3 18:36

Oh, right, right, right, right. So, yes, that's so funny you bring that up, it's. It's a thing with my dad that I think. I think two of my family members actually have it tattooed on themselves.

Speaker 3 18:50

Oh wow, yeah, a cousin and a niece and it's. It says it's a cheap night. It's still a cheap night. I think is what it is.

Speaker 3 18:58

And so the story behind this is growing up, uh, always played cards as family and um, then family, the definition of family, grew and my friends would play cards and we would all play cards and we'd sit around the table and at the end of the day, like if he lost a round, you know it'd be like, oh, he lost three dollars that that round, and then all of a sudden he'd go.

Speaker 3 19:25

But you know what, that's how we do it. I know someone would be like, huh, and then he'd go, it's still a cheap night, which was so cute and clever, and like he didn't even realize he was always saying it and then then we started to pick up on it and then it became a thing others would say and he would say and it's true, I mean you can't have. In my opinion, we would have so much fun. Like you could go out to a bar and like, come home and have spent 80, 100 or whatever here, you could be having drinks like poured from you, from my dad's you know, I don't know where that liquor is right and you know you could lose every single game that night.

Speaker 3 20:06

And what? What did I lose? Ten dollars, the equivalent of like one drink.

Speaker 2 20:10

So yeah, yeah, and there was a uh, because this phrase is so common with your dad. There was a christmas time and I I gotta say, like I am, I consider myself being part of maddie's family and maddie's dad is like I it's.

Speaker 3 20:25

He's a father to me too.

Speaker 2 20:27

Megan's like step and sometimes I feel that I might be a favorite. Um well, you're the favorite son.

Speaker 3 20:35

In fact, my dad will call you the favorite son over me.

Speaker 2 20:38

So but I did um print like a main order, like this, like um how do you call it? Like t-shirt, t-shirts that are. They were just like it's still a cheap night for all the family.

Speaker 3 20:51

And that was, oh, that was a really nice surprise one christmas when you showed up, because I think we've talked about this. You probably saw his chalk drawings in our previous posts, but jj's very artistic, so it's. They don't just say it's still a cheap night. There's like a design into it which incorporates, like my dad's, love for the outdoors and and what we can pull.

Speaker 2 21:13

I can, I can. I still have it, I still have mine, I have mine too.

Speaker 3 21:17

Yeah, it's a little tight, but yeah yeah, I know some of my family members are like I can't wear that anymore, especially after COVID.

Speaker 1 21:23

That was because this was pre-COVID. Yeah, exactly, exactly.

Speaker 3 21:26

But I'll dig mine out and we can post a picture of it. Speaking of my dad, I, you know, I do want to take this moment real quick to just say how lucky I do feel to have a father that did support me. I think there were a lot of times, and maybe even still to this day, where, like he doesn't necessarily understand everything, but from the moment I told him you know, he's always been supportive and I did just want to share this little nugget and I know it kind of maybe ages me but I came out to my dad. I don't know if you guys know this story, but I came out to my dad. I don't know if you guys know this story, but I came out to my dad via a seven page.

Speaker 1 22:05

Oh my God, a fax. That's crazy that is crazy.

Speaker 3 22:10

So here's, here's the story behind it. He was an insurance agent before he retired, so he primarily worked from home. So he or I mean, except for when an appointments but so he had the whole setup, including a fax, and in this time period that's how you would send things. You know, email wasn't the thing that it is now, or however we communicate. But, excuse me, but I knew he had this fax in his office and I was just petrified to like have an actual conversation about it, and so I wrote all of my feelings, thoughts and my coming out to him down on paper, and it was easy for me, I guess, to load it up in the machine and just press the send button and then, once it was sent, I you know, I had no, no choice.

Speaker 3 22:59

The only other option at that time was to like put it in the mail. And my fear was if I put this in the mail and then I don't hear from him, is it? Did it get lost in the mail? Um, did it get?

Speaker 2 23:10

arrived in two days.

Speaker 1 23:12

Did it arrive in?

Speaker 3 23:12

three days but a fax. Like I got a printed receipt. Your faxes went through.

Speaker 3 23:22

So I'm like you know and I didn't have that waiting period of it going through the mail, because it would have been at least two to three days. And then, uh, and instead it turned out to be two to three hours and I got a phone call from him in two to three hours and, um, yeah, I'll leave that conversation as a personal, private moment, but it's just been amazing ever since. So shout out to my dad for all the love and support.

Speaker 1 23:41

Well, that's awesome.

Speaker 2 23:42

Cheers to all the dads and the daddies and the zaddies.

Speaker 1 23:45

And the delves and the delves, obviously. So for any of you guys who are kind of stressing out about what am I going to do for a Father's Day gift this year, I have two great Father's Day gift options for you. We have two great Father's Day gift options for you If you're looking for them and if you have a father who is into grilling or likes to grill or occasionally likes to grill or cooks. It is two great items that I can't get enough of. One is a instant read thermometer, and if you don't have one of these?

Speaker 2 24:20

Oh, that seems to sound interesting oh they're amazing.

Speaker 1 24:23

So they're really good for grilling, but they're good just for cooking in general. And specifically, there's a company called ThermoWorks and they make this leading instant read thermometer. It's called Thermapen 1. And you put the probe into anything you want and it instantly gives you a temperature reading yep anything in less than one second any kind of meat yes, and it's on sale for 76 dollars and 30 cents right now for father's day.

Speaker 3 24:53

You better that's.

Speaker 1 24:54

Yeah, your dad better been a good dad well, let me tell you this is worth every penny. So I use it. Anytime I'm cooking and need to check the temperature, I use it. I use it if I'm trying to check water temperature, if I need a specific temperature for water for things I'm cooking, and also, obviously, anytime I'm grilling, I use it.

Speaker 2 25:13

This is great because sometimes I'm following a recipe and the recipe says the temperature of this needs to be in this and I'm like I don't really have to follow.

Speaker 1 25:21

You need a thermapen yeah they're amazing.

Speaker 3 25:24

The other to thermo. Yes, they're awesome.

Speaker 1 25:27

The other option is a special charcoal. So if you're using charcoal for grilling, we have used many different types of charcoal and have come across this charcoal called Lazari mesquite charcoal and it's amazing. You can get it on Amazon for $22 and 50 cents.

Speaker 2 25:46

Do people use charcoal still for well?

Speaker 1 25:49

yeah, If you have a like old school Weber grill or if you have like a big green egg or if you have a smoker, you use charcoal, Okay.

Speaker 3 25:58

Is this a charcoal that I've seen stacked 10 high in your garage? Yes, probably.

Speaker 1 26:03

Because we can't get it locally. So we're having to go to the west side of the state, to Grand Rapids, and whenever we go we'll pick up some bags. So we have it. It can burn a little hot.

Speaker 3 26:15

There's a whole episode we're going to have to get to in the future about your stockpiling in general. Maybe not yours, but what goes on in the house.

Speaker 2 26:22

So where the people can find these two items that could be helpful for Father's Day.

Speaker 1 26:26

Amazon the Lazari Mesquite Charcoal you can get on Amazon and ThermoWorks Thermapen 1, you can get on the ThermoWorks website thermoworkscom.

Father's Day Gift Ideas

Speaker 3 26:36

Awesome, Get those Father's gifts. All right. So here is a little conversation about our headline, which is also such a endearing story that I wanted to share. I was watching the Today Show a couple weeks ago and this story came on and I was just like that is the coolest thing I've seen and I want to support it. So I don't know if anyone else has heard about it, but there is a movement by a brother and sister to get this word called or bisculate into the dictionary, or I'll spell it O-R-B-I-S-C-U-L-A-T-E Orbisculate, Orbisculate.

Speaker 1 27:24

So what does it mean, would you?

Speaker 3 27:25

like me to use that in a sentence?

Speaker 1 27:26

Well, no, what's the definition of the word?

Speaker 3 27:30

Well, I'll share the definition via a little story, and this is not my story, this is their story. So the children's names are Hillary and Jonathan Krieger and their father's name is Neil. So growing up there was this situation that would happen within their house. In this particular case it was a grapefruit. The family enjoyed eating grapefruit and they would. Would you know, if you're a grapefruit eater I'm not, but if you are, you scoop it out with like a spoon or a little spoon a grapefruit spoon.

Speaker 1 28:05

They make specific spoons for it all right. Another father's day gift option, if your dad's into grapefruit put it on the list.

Speaker 3 28:13

It's a cheaper option than the Thermo, but anyway. So they would eat grapefruit and when any family member was eating the grapefruit it inevitably would squirt out of the grapefruit. And when it would squirt and get in there, I'll say their eye, because that's the story. But, like in general, if it squirted and got on someone, the dad would say, oh, the grapefruit orbisculated, or you got orbisculated on, or wow, that grapefruit was, you know, really orbisculating so you could use it.

Speaker 3 28:47

Or like even orbisculation is going on up in here, so that the kids, just, you know, when you grow up and you're being taught the English language and your parents use words, you just start to use them, and so this became part of their vernacular and it was just something they would say. So one day, hillary was hanging out with one of her friends and at this point she is like a, I want to say, and sorry if I get this wrong, but like a teenager, young adult and the friend was eating I believe it was an orange in this case and it accidentally shot out and got in one of their eyes and she's like oh my gosh, I'm sorry, that orange just herbiculated oh and the friend is like what did you?

Speaker 1 29:35

what did you say she?

Speaker 3 29:36

said the orange or or bisculated, and he's like I don't think that's a word. And she's like what do you mean? It's, it's totally a word, oh and and they, you know, had their little debate. And so they pulled out the dictionary and they looked up the word and, sure enough, between the two words that this word would appear was not there. And upon further discovery she learned that in fact this was not a word at all.

Speaker 3 30:03

It was crazy so the dad made it up, completely made it up, but like I get it right, like if your parents taught you, so you would just a word yeah, you would use it. So here's the thing. So then their father again. Ne Krieger, he died in 2022 from COVID actually.

Speaker 1 30:22

Oh, wow.

Speaker 3 30:22

And he died at the age of 78. So I don't think it immediately came to them, but at some point they're like how do we honor our father? And so what they've done is they've set out on this mission to get, or bisculate, into the dictionary.

Speaker 2 30:40

oh, my god, I just got chills.

Speaker 3 30:42

Just isn't that so cool yeah and so, being that he was 78 years old, they came up with 78 different things to accomplish in order to, like, get society or the general public on board with it.

Speaker 2 31:00

Like a bucket list.

Speaker 3 31:01

Yeah, like getting it into, like we want to see it in print in a newspaper or in a book or et cetera, et cetera, with the ultimate goal of getting it in to the dictionary.

Speaker 1 31:13

So did Miriam Baxter require these 78 things in order to put it in the dictionary.

Speaker 3 31:22

Miriam. Webster yeah sorry, you're like Meredith Baxter. I was thinking Meredith, but no, I was thinking.

Speaker 2 31:29

Miriam Baxter. I'm like, who is she?

Speaker 1 31:31

Well, I thought it's Miriam Webster, you're right.

Speaker 3 31:33

Well, I thought that was the dictionary name I can't, well, I can't. She was on Family Ties. Probably you don't even know, I don't, miriam.

Speaker 1 31:44

Meredith.

Speaker 3 31:45

Okay.

Speaker 1 31:46

Baxter Webster. What's your question? What's your question? So Miriam Webster isn't requiring 78 things to get in the dictionary.

Speaker 3 31:57

No, that's not their rule. The children have created 78 things to get in the dictionary, like no, not, they're like the children have created, they just 78

Speaker 2 32:01

things Got it. 78 has a meaning, or they just started how old their father was.

Speaker 3 32:07

So, one, one account, one appearance of the word in some form, for to honor every year of his life.

Speaker 2 32:15

I love that yeah.

Speaker 3 32:18

And like, obviously, obviously podcast was one of them okay and we checked the list they're doing are we the podcast?

Speaker 2 32:24

no, oh unfortunately.

Speaker 3 32:26

But here what we're gonna try to help them out though, yeah, but how well one. I'm gonna promote their website. So go to orbisculatecom I spelled it before and I'll spell it quicker this time O-R-B-I-S-C-U-L-A-T-Ecom, and you can. They have their own website, obviously, and you can see their story, how you can use it as a verb versus a noun. So the definition you can sign up to support and do like three things or make a donation, or commit to like supporting it.

Speaker 3 32:58

Um, they have merch, so you can buy I might I might, I might get a or you can get your dad an orbisculate mug. How about that? Right and tell? And if you got that and told that story at the family grilling where the thermal thing is thermal pen is there? I mean it's time.

Speaker 1 33:15

All this shit is just tying together.

The Orbisculate Campaign

Speaker 3 33:17

As long as your relatives don't go doing bjs in the driveway and leave that part out, like you never need that going on, leave that part out yeah, but um, so that's one thing. And then I was looking at their list of 78 things and they have check marks by the ones that they've accomplished and one that they haven't actually is they do want to try to get it into ben and jerry's as an actual flavor. So we're here putting out this call to ben and jerry, like if you're listening yeah, if you're listening, it's pride month, it's father's day month.

Speaker 3 33:53

These folks are on this journey and you can do something cool and probably catch some headlines yourself.

Speaker 2 33:59

So are they looking for like a flavor with Ben and Jerry's, I'm assuming?

Speaker 1 34:03

So it's something that would orpisculate in your eye, not your mouth.

Speaker 3 34:08

Well, I think the story is about in the eye, but if you look at the definition, it does say like on your body part. Look at the definition it does say like on your body part, and it does. It has been expanded from just their experience that the word originated from to be like not just grapefruit, but fruits, vegetables, actually anything that when you bite into it would squirt something out okay.

Speaker 3 34:30

So yes, yeah, I imagine they could put something in there that might be like a cherry, like a cream filled something or nugget in there.

Speaker 1 34:39

I don't know. I don't know they could do a jelly donut. I mean the jelly donut flavor. I love being a jelly donut, but this isn't Ben and.

Speaker 3 34:43

Jerry's first rodeo. I mean they can figure it out right.

Speaker 2 34:46

But so like we, just it's not our job.

Speaker 3 35:07

We just it's our here to support Hillary and Jonathan.

Speaker 1 35:11

Yeah, that's really great, and I mean, if you're looking for something to, on the other hand, drown out some of your dad's lectures, I think you've got the right idea, jj yes, I.

Speaker 2 35:22

I don't know if maddie and megan are ready for a product review. I have a, so I was introduced to this product kind of like organically. Um, and maybe, maddie, you've been like sometimes when we were out at a gay bar or maybe we're out at a concert. I don't know if you've noticed that there are some people that bring in that they're all like foam plugs in because the sound is too loud or they're very close to the stage right so I've always been.

Speaker 3 35:48

You know, there is like that term I'm like on the gay community of the circuit queens, but they're always like from one circuit to the other and they're always like an adm, like the movement is something that happens often in detroit the memorial day weekend, when they always have these plugs in because the music is loud but they enjoy the atmosphere yeah, and it's weird it's too much, and I personally am too old for that yeah, have you also seen these um concerts in which and this is a sidebar yeah, sorry, but like you're listening to your own music and everyone's listening to their own music and there's no music, silent disco or something like that, yeah, yeah, so my uh, I was introduced to this because for Christmas time somebody gave me um the this earplugs.

Speaker 2 36:30

They're called the loop earplugs, loop earplugs and loop L O O P Okay.

Speaker 3 36:36

Not Okay.

Speaker 2 36:41

I earplugs and loop l-o-o-p. Okay, not okay. I thought you were saying lube. No, no, not, not lube, lube. We're talking about lube later, but not not now. But loop earplugs. Uh, and this plot, these blocks are very good. They're very intentional on the way that they are uh being designed, and one of the things that I liked about this, as I was like kind of researching a little bit about this is like it was created by two friends One of them, had a or three, and they were just trying to keep one quiet.

Speaker 2 37:06

That's a good one, yeah, but like it was interesting because they were both very like into the music and EDM and things like that, but one of them had a I think I'm going to get this wrong it's like he had a uh, tinnitus or it's like a tinnitus. No, no, it's a. It's called tinnitus or it's t-i-n-n-i-t-u-s.

Speaker 2 37:30

It's when you have a constant ring on your ear yes, okay um, and the other one was very sensitive to noises and sound, um, so they created this um earplugs that have. They're very techie, so they were very into the design of it can you hand them over to me?

Speaker 3 37:47

yeah, they're right here.

Speaker 2 37:48

Thank you, yeah so they wanted to have a way of not stopping the sound, but filtering the sound more than anything there. So they have acoustic resonance, their filtering is very advanced and they're closing their ear canal instead of like completely stopping it, so that you can. When you're using them, you're being more focused on what's happening around you without stopping the people talking to you. So the way that I use it personally is at my workstation, I use it to stay focused. So, even if people talking to you so the way that I use it personally is that my workstation I use it to stay focused, so I can, even if people come to me and ask me a question, I I'm actually able to hear them I'm just focusing on.

Speaker 3 38:28

So it's not complete like blocking, but it it helps sensor the sensories by blocking out some of the noise. Is that what you're saying?

Speaker 2 38:37

yes, 100, and they expanded into like, not all, not only like noise, noise sensitivity. They created one, a specific design for you when you're sleeping, um, another one for like when you want to stay focused even when you're having conversations and social gatherings. And they've only not now created some, some that will be for kids when they're in playtime, so that their noise is not distracting them too much. And I know Maddie and I were very big into this Love on the Spectrum show on Netflix.

Speaker 2 39:10

One of the things that this company created was like this sign for autistic kids.

Speaker 3 39:15

This same company, this same company. I love that.

Speaker 2 39:17

So ADHD autistic for autistic kids, oh, the same company, the same company. I love that. Um. So adhd autistic, you know again, you're not losing the sound, you're not completely disconnecting from the, the environment that you're in, but you're staying focused, um, on where you're at, and so I think that this is a great product.

Speaker 1 39:34

I tried them and I liked them. I.

Speaker 3 39:36

I would all. I have not tried them yet, but I will say, from a packaging standpoint love it, I like it. We'll take a picture of it, We'll put it up there but that's really, really cute. I would also say another option for a father's day gift not for my dad, cause he already can't hear him. So he does not need these so he does not need these.

Speaker 2 39:59

But you've got some options from our, our cast today, yeah, and you can find them on loop earplugscom. They are in the prices. I sorry like, even like this last two reviews I have a lip balm for ten dollars and now our earplug for thirty dollars.

Speaker 3 40:09

Well, that's, that's because you're a zaddy that's fine, because I'm a zaddy.

Loop Earplugs Review

Speaker 2 40:12

You're the zaddy in the group but I thought to bring it in this, this product that, like, I think it's very good. And so, loop, if you're listening, you're rocking it.

Speaker 3 40:22

Oh, if you're listening?

Speaker 1 40:24

Yeah, exactly, I love it Clever. Well, I think it's time for some slip it in and pull it out.

Speaker 3 40:30

Let's do some quick rounds of slip it ins and pulls it outs.

Speaker 1 40:33

For me, my slip it in this week are the peonies. They're really out in bloom and I have lots of you really love the peonies. Peonies are one of my favorite flowers and I have several of them bushes of them in my yard and I love them and they're all kind of popping and my pull it out is also peonies but a little different.

Speaker 1 40:53

Well, double peons. But it's specifically about the peony Garden at the University of Michigan, which is one of the world's premier peony collections. The garden holds nearly 800 peonies and has over 10,000 flowers at peak bloom and it's right around the peak bloom point and it's beautiful and people travel from all over to come see the Peony Garden. But the pull it out is over the weekend. Someone vandalized it.

Speaker 1 41:21

Oh my God it cut thousands of peonies, the flowers off. It's awful. Apparently it was meant to be a protest, but I mean, I'm all about peaceful protest, but not when it comes to cutting the peonies.

Speaker 3 41:34

I wouldn't even consider that to be. Yeah, that's not peaceful.

Speaker 1 41:37

Well, yeah, the peonies didn't think so. I mean, they're a living thing, okay.

Speaker 3 41:42

All right, my slip it in is I just watched Coco Gauff win the French Open. I'm a huge tennis fan and she's the first woman American woman to win since Serena 10 years. Oh wow, 10 years. So that was amazing. It didn't start out so good, but she definitely turned it around and that's my lead into turning, speaking of turning around, my pull it out. Are these people that use their turning signal when you're in a parking structure, so you get in the parking structure?

Speaker 2 42:17

You don't like that.

Speaker 3 42:18

I'm behind a car. There's only one way up, folks, and one way down. You don't need to turn your signal left to let me know you're going up the parking structure ramp and then we get to another turn and the blinker comes on again.

Speaker 1 42:33

It's insane. That's unnecessary.

Speaker 3 42:35

I'm like, can we, I know where you're going? I don't, I got it. I don't need your cautionary blinker.

Speaker 2 42:42

No, no stop.

Speaker 2 42:44

I love that. Well, my slip it in is recently I stumbled on this new comedy show I've always been like, ever since Chicks Creek. I was waiting for that other show that will fill in that gap, and this new show in Amazon Prime is called Overcompensating. It's a comedy show. It's like ain't I like a 30 minute maxed comedy show and it's. It's nice, it's clever. There is one specific actress that she just like. She's hilarious and she's very, very funny and it's all about a story about a coming out boy that is in college.

Speaker 2 43:25

So it's perfect for the timing right on topic and so, yeah, it's nice if you haven't started watching this show. It's so funny. Overcompensating in prime, that is my slip in, my pull it out, since we're talking about father's day. Um, this might be a little bit of controversy because I'm spanish, but I just cannot stand what people call me poppy poppy, which is a version, a spanish version.

Speaker 3 43:51

Yeah you know that for years I put poppy on what henry cards to you Cause that's how the dog liked to. I mean he considered you a Poppy.

Speaker 2 44:01

And I only allowed it because of Henry. I'm sorry, but when a boy that I'm dating Secrets, are coming out, yeah, right.

Speaker 3 44:09

Like that, just was like that's gut wrenching.

Speaker 1 44:11

You should have been putting daddy or zaddy.

Speaker 2 44:14

Clearly Zaddy will be preferable or zaddy zaddy will be preferable. But I think that I think that is mostly because if if I'm on a date with you or on a dating app or we're kind of dating, and you're calling me papi because you want to be, I don't know clever or flirtatious, like because you're Spanish yeah, I feel like they're just trying to honor your heritage. Don't call me papi.

Speaker 3 44:41

Stay in your lane.

Speaker 2 44:43

I don't like it, okay, so it's something that it doesn't land good for me, so that's definitely I pull it out.

Speaker 3 44:57

We got it, zaddy no more papis, no more pap. Good for me, so that's definitely. I pull it out we got it, zaddy, no more pappies no more pappies for you.
