We are Ken Jennings and John Roderick. We speak to you from our present, which we can only assume is your distant past, the turbulent time that was the early 21st century.

Fearing the great cataclysm that will surely befall our civilization, we began this

monumental reference of strange and obscure human knowledge.

These recordings represent our attempt to compile and preserve wonders and esoterica that would otherwise be lost.

So whether you're listening from an advanced civilization or have just reinvented the technology to decrypt our transmissions,

this is our legacy to you.

This is our time capsule.

This is the omnibus. Okay. You have accessed entry 289. JL 0118, certificate number 289, 289, Cal-89, cow magnets. ticket number 2 8929.

Cow Magnets. Do you have any precious metals or gems on my person right now? I know that you do not you don't typically wear jewelry at least not that's visible.

You might have a Prince Albert or something, but you don't seem to, uh, you don't have like any big diamond rings.

My only booty is my actual booty. But do you you don't have like a

box with rubies in it or something like that has that ever appealed to you?

Buried on a secret location on a beach if anyone can decipher my devilish clues.

We've talked quite a bit about money and hoarding money and so forth but

mostly you about me hoarding money on the last outro.

But have you but you don't have any there's no appeal to you of what you know what

would have been considered wealth.

I buy my wife jewelry.

Yeah, that's nice.

Which she then sometimes wears.

Sure.

It used to be kind of crappy costume jewelry and now it's a little nicer.
