What?

0:16.2

And everybody, hello and welcome to popcorn culture.

0:18.8

My name is Ben Carlin, and I am your host.

0:27.2

Here will be today's, but Brother Jay, who will be in every episode. And, and if you would, if you would like to hear, you know, like if you think, man, this podcast, it feels like it could use some change

0:32.9

up, you know, like maybe, maybe someone else could do the intro portion of it. Like, you know, if you

0:39.8

were feeling that way, you can control that. You could head on over to Patreon. And the way it

0:44.8

works is you can either sign up for the jazzy J tiers or the or the Buzzy B tears. And whoever,

0:50.5

whoever's got more people signed up. That's who gets to host it. So like, you know, you could be hearing something like pop of the morning to you, everybody. This is Jazzy J. Or you could hear like Ben over there, you know, you know, what's popping everybody? Oh, oh, I see. I see. I see. So, so it's, it's either like, what's popping everybody? Or,

1:14.7

like, what's popping everybody? Or like, like, what's yours? How does it even go?

1:18.3

Well, pop of the morning, everybody. I've heard it so infrequently. Yeah. Pop of the morning, everybody.

1:25.8

Yeah. Hope you're enjoying your drive to work. Wow, that sounded really cool. Oh, dang it. He used my, my recoil against me. Exactly. I know, I do like that. I do like that. Exactly. Exactly. That's what you could be having in your ears, folks. But, you know, that's up to you. It's up to you.

1:44.9

But yeah, it's weird to think about like something that people want in their ears.

1:49.4

Yeah, right. You know, it's so, because the general rule of thumb is people don't want things in their ears.

1:50.0

They don't want anything, except sound.

1:54.6

Except sound.

1:56.3

Yeah.

1:57.1

Sound is acceptable.

1:57.3

It is like the whole reason we have ears.

1:58.4

They're like these like little antennas that stick off of our heads, like little, little flappy doos that can hear sound waves. Right. Do you think like on other alien planets there like radar dishes just look like giant ears? They're like, man, I can't believe we figured this out. What are the odds? You'd think it'd be like a big circle. And here we are down here, Like we have these amazing radars on the sides of our head and we're like, discs. Yeah, well, that's a good question. I don't know. I mean, I also wonder like when it comes to your ears, is it like, like, you know, that we have so many of our senses attached really, really close to our brain. Yeah. So it's like, I mean, with the exception of touch,

2:00.1

it's like you've got smell,
