0:00.0 | The treehouse episode 32, Jay Pinkerton, Snoopington with Danny Baker and Meal Louise Pepper. |
0:15.0 | Yes, here we go again. Good morning everybody. Three hours of farm for all of the young without the slightest hint of vulgarity. |
0:21.0 | And we can legitimately do this, which we've always shied away from, perhaps saying, hey, perhaps how you're doing because normally we would have been sitting with each other for ages beforehand. |
0:29.0 | But we haven't here. So if you've not heard the show before, I can't help you. |
0:34.0 | So, but today, as you know, we do look back at some of the things in the highways and by ways that perhaps they like to call the mainstream media peps. |
0:44.0 | They are you looking good by this. A brand new, a brand new laptop you're working from, isn't it? |
0:49.0 | Yeah, it is. I saw your English cries on Twitter. Somebody gift. Somebody gift. Somebody gift me. |
0:57.0 | Oh, and then I got trapped into a conversation between people who really know their laptops. |
1:03.0 | That's about well, if you're going to have a processor with a mb's, then you're going to have to get it. |
1:08.0 | Oh, when I saw your English tweet, I saw that's that it's not worth it. I don't care if, you know, Steve Jobs himself says to you, is the element you stuck in the air. |
1:18.0 | Anyway, we try not to look down. We always look up on here. So amongst various things. |
1:23.0 | So Washington Irving, right? Washington Irving Day was born and Washington Irving wrote Rip Van Winkle in 1819. |
1:32.0 | I did it. I okay. Now, say I did that. I did that. And then because I'm the eye that never sleeps, I thought, well, what do I know about Rip Van Winkle? |
1:42.0 | Only from cartoons. What do you know of Rip Van Winkle? Perhaps what do you know of Rip Van Winkle? |
1:47.0 | He slept a lot. Yes, that's it. That's it. But what? It's a book. And here we are passing through this veil of tears. |
1:55.0 | And never once I suspect a people think, Rip Van Winkle. I mean, how could very thin he gets all the heat? But Rip Van Winkle, you don't know that. So what I know I do. I looked it up. I didn't read it. I looked it up. |
2:06.0 | I think that you've had two days to read Rip Van Winkle. No, it's a very thin tone anyway. I know it's 1819 and then Cax then had only just, you know, legged it down the peyton office. |
2:17.0 | But this is in if it stayed with us everyone, the show starts in a second. This is a pre-see of Rip Van Winkle. Now, see if you're a publisher. Here I am. |
2:28.0 | I'm not saying to know, I've got something hot for you here. It's something hot for you. It's based on my grandfather who came to this country of the Van Winkle family. And he was. |
2:40.0 | So Rip Van Winkle has a rail with his wife because she says he's idle. So he goes off to the mountains to seek solace. And he discovers a cave where strangely dressed men are playing skittles. They give him some booze. |
2:52.0 | He falls asleep and he wakes up 20 years later with a huge long beard. He goes back to his village. The revolution has taken place and George has been thrown out. But he's pleased with this. And he sees pictures of George Washington everywhere. |
3:05.0 | They tell him his wife has died. He doesn't mind this and he goes back to his idle ways. That is Rip Van Winkle. That's it. That's it. Now I've set in pitch meetings before I wouldn't go in with that. |
