Summary

Why have people throughout human history drawn penises everywhere? What compels (usually) dudes to mark dirty cars, classroom desks, and their sleeping friend’s forehead with penis art? Much to Kathleen’s delight, Bethany goes through examples of dick-scriptions, from ancient archeological finds to current day. Plus, she goes into the psychology behind why people draw them! (“Cuz them dicks ain’t gonna draw themselves, yo.” - Reddit) Then, Kathleen goes through some old wives’ tales and clears up the truth versus the fiction! Plus, Bethany goes off on tripod lamps, because how dare they?

At Honda, we listen to drivers for inspiration, even when they say things we can't play on the radio.

0:05.3

Like when a *** pulls out without indicating, or when a *** crosses the road without checking first,

0:10.4

or when a *** doesn't understand how a *** roundabout works.

0:14.4

That's why we developed a collision sensor system, which detects risks and automatically breaks.

0:20.7

And to keep all family road trips, family friendly, it's included as standard with a Honda CRV hybrid.

0:27.8

Honda, the power of dreams.

0:30.0

Kathleen, as the world becomes increasingly uncomfortable, we're all looking to just get as much comfort as we can in.

0:37.5

I don't know about you, but being stuck in my house for the last, oh, I don't know, year or so has made me go a little insane.

0:44.6

So the one thing that you can always count on is how comfortable your purple mattress is.

0:49.6

And that's because purple is comfort reinvented.

1:09.2

Plus, you don't overheat because the way that it's designed, the grid doesn't trap air.

1:14.2

Air actually circulates and flows through it.

1:16.5

We got a sample of the grid, and it's just like spongy and cushy and so, so comfortable.

1:21.9

So you can see how their mattresses are the best to sleep on.

1:25.0
