Welcome to Stuff You Should Know, a production of IHeart Radio.

Hey, and welcome to the podcast.

I'm Josh, and there's Chuck, and Jerry's here as well, and this is stuff you should know.

So let's get started talking about some stuff that you should know.

And I guess we should do our semi-annual explanation, Chuck, that the title of our podcast

is never intended to make you feel bad because you don't know something.

It's not that we think you should know this already. We're saying we find this really interesting and we want to share it with you. Hence, we want you to know about it. You should know about this because it's interesting and we want to tell you about it. Not that you should already know about it. Yeah. That's the second one. We just did that in Listerner Mail like two weeks ago. I think we should do it every week. I'm going to start every podcast with that from now on, okay? That's a great way to retain listeners, I think. For sure. Man, you should see the match I'm drinking right now. It's like mash brown green. Ooh. It's disgusting. I don't know what's wrong with it, but I got a drink in anyway.

Oh, is it not taste good either? Not really. It's pretty bitter. Maybe that match is turned, bro. But does it? It was powder. Does matcha turn? Because if so, I'm drinking turned matcha for sure. All right. Well, we'll do a short stuff. Can a powder turn? as the powder

but no

we're not going to do that

today because All right. Well, we'll do a short stuff. Can a powder turn? As the powder turn.

But no, we're not going to do that today because we're talking about the Kowloon-walled city in Hong Kong, which is the most, well, at one time, was the most densely populated place on planet Earth.

And just to give you, if you've ever been to New York City, if you've

ever traveled to the East Village, one of my favorite villages. That's where I got engaged.

Yeah, right there at the museum, which one? New Museum. Not the Whitney. No. That is the most,

and it doesn't feel like it when you're there, but the East Village is the most densely neighborhood in New York City, and they have about 43,000 people living in the East Village.

The Cowloon-Walled City is about the size of the East Village geographically, but there are one point, yeah, that's why they use the East Village and all the

comps, 1.25 million people living there as opposed to 43,000.

Okay, yes, exactly. But there were really only 33,000 people, but if you spread it all out

over a square kilometer, you would have that many people to equal that density, right?
