0:01.9 | Zarin Burnett, we meet again. Elizabeth Dutton. Howdy-Dutty's. How are you doing? I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good to see you. So good to see you. The interns told me you're going to be early, and I was like, well, I'm going to be late. So I'm glad you're patient with me. |
0:02.5 | Thank you for that. |
0:05.6 | You're looking sharp today in your little mariner's shirt. Thank you. |

0:06.7 | I'm like a be late. Well, you know what? You're all here. You're looking sharp today in your little mariner's shirt. |
0:23.2 | Thank you. |
0:23.4 | I like it. Yeah, I'm like a French mariner over here. I love it. It's cute. I'm going to get you a can of sardine. This says, make your day. Quick question. Sure. You know what's ridiculous? I do. Oh. |
0:17.2 | So hearkening back to when I was telling you about the Buddhist monks, I mentioned about Stevie Wonder going around the Shaolin Temple, and it's like, oh, he must have been enjoying listening to the temple. Sure. Have you ever heard the theory that Stevie Wonder actually can see? I have. Right? There's a lot of celebrities have talked about it. Yeah. So I have one here that I think is just absolutely not proof positive, but there there's some interesting video proof. It's interesting, yeah. So Elton John has this evidence that Stevie Wonder may be able to see that I thought was very convincing. Because the two of them happened to be Colorado at the same time, and they kind of bumped into each other. That's not the evidence. They were, uh, basically they did a snowmobile tour, |
1:11.5 | but I'll let Elton John tell the story. Quote, musicians passing through Denver or Boulder |
1:16.5 | would drop by to visit. Stevie Wonder turned up one day and took out a snowmobile, insisting on |
1:21.6 | driving it himself. Now, to preempt your question, no, I have no idea how Stevie Wonder successfully |
1:27.2 | piloted a snowmobile through the Rocky Mountains of Colorado without killing himself or indeed anyone else in the process. But he did. And it's not like, it's at Stevie's house. No, he just like, he doesn't know this track. This is not like, oh, I've got this worked out. Steve. He took, yeah, he went out there and drove a snowmobile. Like, I don't think I could do that that well and not run the risk of bumping into something, apparently flawless. Steady, you rascal. So I'm just saying there's an interesting theory there. Well, you can be like, you can be like technically blind, right? You know, where it's like... I guess varying degrees of... Yeah, there's different levels of blindness. So it might not be complete, you know... Yeah, so much like UFOs and UAPs, I'm keeping an open mind about Stevie Wonder and whether or not he's fully blind. Wow. So there you go. Very interesting. Ridiculous, right? That is ridiculous. |
