| 0:00.0 | Okay, this is my favorite kind of episode. We both researched a topic. I can't say that |
| 0:12.0 | I dove super deep into it because I know this is your lane, but we're going to talk about |
| 0:17.3 | the hanging gardens of Babylon. But before we start that, the hanging gardens of Babylon |
| 0:22.1 | are important because they're one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, which |
| 0:26.6 | Matt, I'm sure you can name them all, right? I can name them all partly because of |
| 0:32.5 | history degrees and partly because of the memorization song that my kids sang for school. |
| 0:37.4 | What? Yeah, they have a song. I don't totally remember it, but I kind of remember the rhythm |
| 0:42.6 | of it. They have songs for everything at their school. It's insidious, earworm songs. |
| 0:48.2 | Huh. Never heard of that. I mean, like works. So I guess how many could you name before |
| 0:53.7 | that? I think I can usually get them all. Okay. There's one that I always get confused, |

| 1:09.3 | them or whatever and see how many they can get. Okay, five, four, three, two, one. That |
| 1:14.2 | should be all the time you need to list that off. Is that a sufficient amount of time? |
| 1:17.3 | Yeah. I think so. Okay. It was five seconds, seven wonders. I mean, yeah, the math works. |
| 1:22.0 | So the only one I know, like I know I know is the pyramids, right? The great pyramid |
| 1:27.3 | at Giza. Yep. You can still see it. So there's one that's still in existence. What else |
| 1:33.0 | you got? The other one I know is the lighthouse at Alexandria. Right. What are the chances |
| 1:37.8 | to see in that one? Zero. Yeah. I think some divers found the remains of some foundation |
| 1:45.2 | there in the harbor at Alexandria. Yeah. That one is that one is really gone. You'd have |
| 1:50.6 | to be a very talented diver to get a look at that now. So the other one that I kind of |
| 1:54.7 | I kind of know, but I don't really I'm looking at a list now and I can tell you that it's |
