Another excellent landing heavy job. As you dwell, the mics are still on uh an electric deal. They will complain, not a problem. Hello, Hello, people of Earth. Do it like they don't do it?
Okay?
Yes, hey, every person, everybody? Oh, yes, greetings, every human body. I am Ozark, and I am here with my traveling compatriot. Glip clore, clip clore, clip clore, blit glo glip clore, clip clore.
I feel like I'm saying it all this time.
You maybe wondering why, or where or what has happened to our favorite podcasts, Ridiculous Romance.
We'll rest assured, dear listeners.
We will return your hosts Eli and Diana momentarily.
We took them on.
A cross galactic trip that was most ridiculous.
Huh, But we have your turns on too.
Did you see what I said?
Ridiculous?
And it was like the name of the show I Ridiculous Adventures that we went on.
It tickled me.
We have brought them back to do their hostly duty as soon as they finished defrosting. Yes, your human bodies must be deep frozen before you can travel through space. It's a well known fact. They're strange because you don't
do well in the cold, which end. But the problem is when you leave the door open and then they sort of start to mout a little, and then you, oh, no, old shit, I better refreeze them, and then they freeze them more, and then they get those gross crystals all over them and it has that funky freezer taste.
True, That's why I say close the freezer door.
We are not paying to cool off the entire vacuum space thing to cryotypically freeze the entire vacuums. But that's exactly right. And we know Eli and Diana perhaps will be a little serious. It's okay, But there's saw so many what if things are amazing things on our intergalactic tour.
We saw it.
Snort beasts, Oh, beautiful snort beat breached, yes, snork beasts breaching the surface.
Do you remember of fizz Corpse?
How can I forget?
Well?
When the Bloodnacts came out with those giant, giant jars of jark nargans, Oh, I could go for a jerk nargan right now.
I tell's rich as the Lord from the Rings of Colclat.
No problem with the Bloodknacs. What were you drinking Bloodnags. Is that your reference to second the dark Nargans? Yeah, the problem with the jark Nargans is you put them in the fraser for too long and they get that funky fraezer taste.
Oak. You're the only one who has this problem with freezers. Look close the door. Oh, I'm just.
Saying, when I get something out of the freezer, a Jark Nargan or what have you on, my hands are full. It can't exactly what you want. To use my face to close the freezer door.
Next time you leave it.
Open, I will personally send you to the shimmering ponds of our tartar. Oh, I've had a lovely time last time I've been been part Oh boy, well would you look at that?
Here?
Oh? Here comes the theme song.
I think we should do our person Oh I got it, run it right now, baby greetings friends at.
Them race, Eli and Diana.
Nothing being into space.
We're taking them my money about elected tips to talk about ridiculous relationships.
I love that might be any type of.
Bauc I know, not a xeno look free the me t but any stories out in the cosmic expense.
We're being into our show. Ridiculous romance.
Are production?
I hold radio.
Hey, this hosting gig ain't so hard? Is it as easy as pie? Delicious pie? I think we should get our own podcast, an alien podcast. Do you think people would Do you think people would want to list to these gorgeous voices for an hour straight? I think if they've made it this far, why not go full.
Feeling love babbling?
Hey? What the hell is going on in here? What?
Freezing?
God? Why do I smell like freezer burn?
Oh?
Good, you're awake, you finally defrausted.
Do not worry. We have resumed the show.
It is all one up for you.
What are you talking about?
Yes, well, you two have been gone for a while.
I thot it was such a fun time.
We didn't want you to be all stressed out and not being behind at work when.
You let home.
Fun trip. All I remember is you beamed us onto your ship without asking and then flew us into space.
Yeah, and you also said we'd only be gone for a weekend. How long has it been?
Let's see here and carry it four and it's I think.
It's been approximately one hundred and twenty earth days since.
Your last broadcast.
Wait what one and twenty one?
Eight?
Weekend, and how it is one hundred and forty seven days. So we actually got.
You that day little early.
Oh.
Yes, we have on our planet a four day work week and then one hundred and forty seven days off. It's a great work life balance.
It's beautiful.
Thank god.
Okay, you're telling me that, you guys. First of all, wait, you have one hundred and fifty day weekend. That's incredible. We could really stand reworks hang on hanging out that night. We've been gone for one hundred and twenty that's three months. Four months.
What we haven't put an episode in four months? Uh so we need to put an episode.
Okay, aliens, aliens, you guys, your intro was way too long. Anyway, it's time to get the hell out of here.
All right.
We will ascend to our ship and leave you to it. You're the beautiful job that you do.
Thanks we yet for a three days. We will never do it again.
Good. I don't want you. Please go. Oh my god, Hi, everybody, my god. Hello, it's been a minute. I guess it's been a minute. All right, all.
Right, now the fridge is discussing, like no, the.
Freezer door is wide open. I can't I don't know how that happened.
I don't know why, but it's.
Insane, unbelievable. Okay, okay, all right, the aliens are gone. Hi everybody. Wow, we are very sorry to have ghosted you. It's been a hot minute.
But the.
Hot minute got cold.
Okay. Well, aside from the whole kidnapped by aliens thing, we actually do have a lot to catch you all up on. So first things. First, we've got I would say, good news and bad news. So which do you want first? I mean, I'm not asking you, I'm asking them to scream into their radio whatever it is. No, obviously, I mean obviously want the bad news. Why the hell would you ever take the good news first? Oh yeah, please lift me up and then knock me down, knock me.
On down so I'll feel like crap at the end.
Okay, we'll start with the bad news. I think it's bad news. It's not my favorite news.
It's not my favorite Okay, I've had better news.
I will say, the rumors are true. I am banksy.
Well where's all the money?
I put it in a paper shredder, Thank you very much.
That's how strong my values are.
No, all right, band aid off Ridiculous Romance is for the time being, coming to an end. You could say it's it came to an end. We just didn't officially get to say anything. Look, I will say this much. There is plenty of room for Ridiculous Romance or something like it to return in the future, and I think that's something that we're both pretty excited about continuing. This is not something new, this is not this is not
a result of our disappearance. Actually, this whole past year has been kind of wacky because honestly, about a year ago we heard that the show wasn't going to get picked up for a third season. So all last spring and summer while we were doing episodes, it was just, you know, we're just finishing out what we had to do. And everybody at iHeartRadio loves the show. We love them. We've been having a great time. Obviously, Ben and nol
our podcast daddies, who are the best. But it's the media industry and stuff comes and goes all the time, and we were I think in a batch of about thirty five thousand other shows that came to a close. And that's okay. We are again, just super excited for all the time that we've been able to do this show, and I believe there's a future for this show as well.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
But in the meantime, there's really good news that I'm very excited about, and I think and hope that you all will be too.
That's right, great because we were spending also this year developing two brand new podcasts.
Two that's twice as many as we're doing now.
I know why would say, wow, that's so crazy, but that's your we're your favorite crazy pants, yes, and so here we are with another crazy pants idea.
That's right.
But yeah, we are really excited about these ideas. We each kind of had a bit of a pet project that we got to sort of focus on and bring to life, and so we're both kind of like have our little babies coming to Fruition in the next few months. And that's really awesome.
It's really awesome, And we are branching out on our own. We're producing these independently. We're going to it's just us out in the world, and I hope that you all
join us on these shows. The first one that we're going to be starting on April first, No Foolin' wherever you get your podcasts, is called a I Made Us watch, And the rundown of that show is that, you know, Diana and I were married, and like any other couple, we have a real hard time picking a movie some nights, right, so we're flipping through, scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, and then next thing you know, it's two am and we never picked
anything and we go to bed. So we used all the stupid new technology, went to an AI chatbot and said, what pick a random movie for us to watch, which seemed innocent enough, but then the AI turned evil. It took over our TV, guys, and now it is forcing us to watch movie after movie that it randomly selects and give us our reviews. And it says that if we don't do this, it'll destroy the world. But hopefully through our movie reviews, our appreciation of real human art.
Yeah, we human effort, we.
Can save humanity. That's the goal.
It's the only movie review podcast that might save the world.
Might maybe, yeah, if we do a good job. Yeah, so this set up real. We really are going to a chatbot and getting random movies selected. Then we sit down, we watch those movies, and then we immediately jump on the mic and give our just first impression thoughts, and these are gonna be everything. When I say random, I made random from Big Trouble in Little China, and I mean it might be Big Blockbusters, Lord of the Rings, it could be anything like that. It could be Captain Ron.
Why I don't want to watch to Kurt Russell Movies. Our new podcast is just Kurt Russell Movies now Kurt Russell Alert.
But no, it gave us like King Solomon's Mind Yes, or something like flops, box Office Hits anything. It'll be all over the maps. So it's gonna be awesome too because we'll be forced to watch movies that we wouldn't normally pick. I think that's gonna be great for us.
I'm very excited about it. And honestly, like when we did our Barbenheimer episode here, yeah, we did in part two, we reviewed both movies that we had we had seen and y'all responded really well to that. So we're excited to kind of do I mean, no, there are no shortage of movie or view podcasts, but hell, we figured we'd throw our hat at the ring and see if it's interesting. Plus, I mean again, we're kind of saving the world from an evil AA.
So You're welcome, you know, great service to humanity and everything.
How about our next show.
Our other show is kind of my personal favorite hobby, I suppose, which is smoking weed. So I had this idea a long time ago to do a show called Let's Get High and find Out, And now I finally get to do it where Eli and I are going to just sit down with a guest and anyone from an expert to a professional to just a dear friend of ours, and we're going to get them stoned and
we're gonna find out about their puff puff passions. So I think part of this was like for me, I think I'm a bit of a workaholic, you guys, And so lately I've been thinking a lot about well, I wish I had more hobbies, you know, I wish I had more little things that I'd just like to do. Yeah, I go roller skating, sometimes we play pickleball or whatever, just something fun. Yeah, And instead of I'm like, everything I do must be monotized, So.
I'm just trying to.
I'm on this crazy productivity hustle for a long time, and I think everybody feels that way. And it's been I think lately a lot of my friends especially been like, I want to talk about something else than work, and so I was like, I really, what I love is when you're at a party and you say you kind of mentioned a random topic and somebody goes, oh, you fucked up, because I'm about to talk about that for
forty five minutes straight. Yes, that happens to be my favorite little random thing that I know about, and I think that's awesome and fascinating. I have a great time with it. And we sat down with a few of our friends to kind of test this idea out and they ended up being some hilarious, really delightful conversations, and so, yeah, I want to get high and find out with you. So I hope that you can hang out with that.
Show as well, exactly because I think part of it, too, is like kind of breaking free of that stereotypical stoner thing, like you get high and you're just dumb on the couch and you can't talk about anything that is not our experience that's been with the people we know and you know, and I've had my moments for sure, obvious, and but that's kind of the fun part of the show. Even the test episodes that we did where you sort of lose the train of thoughts and it goes into
some crazy tangent and it's just hilarious conversation. But it's but it's cool that it's informative. Like you said, I mean, yeah, we're gonna have people on there talking about everything from you know is an architect or they're a gardener, or a musician, or or a senator. Maybe we can get some senators on. Doubt it.
Now, if Obama will come up on here and smoke a blunt with me, all right, that would make my life.
Oh that's the goal. We got to get this show big enough to get Obama on.
Yes, help us.
I would take I would take either Obama.
Either Obama and Obama. Actually they're all the sash old enough now to call their own shot side.
Sure sure, uh, President Obama, we will get your daughter's.
High hear that the on the table you're going?
All right? So that is what we've been up to, and we're very excited to bring you both those shows. The first one is gonna be AI Made Us Watch, and like I said, that launches April first, but you can listen to that episode early on Friday, March twenty ninth and every Friday, get those episodes early in ad free by subscribing to our Patreon, So that's gonna be at Patreon dot com. Slash Ai made Us Watch No Dots in the AI, so it kind of looks like

We'll be launching Let's Get High and find Out later this spring. It's gonna be a really good time. Stick around with the Ridiculous Romance Instagram feed too. We'll be continued us updating that about stories we see new episodes we might be putting out in the future.

Yeah, stay tuned on that, because let's get high will be I'm barring the internet this spring.
Right, but you know it's high, so it's going a little slower.
Yeah, right, yeah, we move a little slower.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that deadline.
Oh. Each one of these shows will be once weekly. Oh yeah, you get four delightful episodes a month, and just you know, the structure of AI made us watch. We will review our movie and then at the end of the episode, you'll hear the AI it's gonna it likes to play a little game with us where we sort of have to guess what movie it's thinking of, so you'll hear what our next episodes movie will be, so that you have a whole week to watch it too. Yeah,
and then know what the hell we're talking about. You can even send us your thoughts and we might be able to incorporate that into the episode as well.
Cool.
Yeah, well that's the news everybody, good, bad, and otherwise all I know you'all have been reaching out. We haven't responded to everybody, but thank you so much for checking on us, as we sort of ghosted a little bit.
So sad we missed your Spotify wrapped.
Oh my god, it was really breaking hearts.
We were mentioned in some stories and I was like, I always think that's so awesome. So anyway, we have not had it. We will be getting back to everybody as soon as we can, because we again just love y'all.
We really appreciate it is a tough holiday. Obviously, we're building a whole new business here, and we've had some at home issues and all this kind of stuff that we've been dealing with. But and Diana, of course, I don't have to tell you guys, Diana's getting ready for the Atlanta Fringe vestis coming up in June, so I barely see her anymore. But yeah, but we're here to fill y'all in and let y'all know where you can
continue to find us next. And of course, just keep telling your friends, your neighbors, your uncles and aunts about ridiculous romance because this show, the episodes that are up ain't going anywhere.
Oh no.
And I know every time I finished listening to one, I immediately forget everything that was about, so I could just listen to it over and over again. On Loop we were talking about one of our old episodes the other night, D and Lorraine War and I was like, wait, what was that story? And I went, I was like, I really learned something today from myself, I thought.
I was like, I've completely forgot how crazy a story it is.
We were when we were you know, when we were on schedule, we were cranking out two of these a week, so it really you didn't. There's not a lot of brain space to save these things. Yeah, I was making a lot of space.
But fortunately, kind of going back and looking, we saw we have a couple of updates until episodes too, So I think we should take a quick commercial break and come back with some ridiculous romance, don't you right?
Yes, Because speaking of AI, we've got an update to our replica romances out there. We also have kind of a bittersweet update to one of our most beloved couples of all. And then lastly, we're going to quickly touch base with America's sweetest presidential couple. I would say, so stay tube, We'll be right back.
Welcome back, everybody, all.
Right, friends. So, if you're a regular listener of this show, or maybe if you're a random listener to this show and you just happen to pick the right ones, you probably heard our episodes about the Replica AI chatbot. Quick summary.
Replica was developed by a woman named Eugenia Kuda. Eugenia worked on these old school chatbots for banking systems in Russia, like you text in what's my balance and it would say your balance is four dollars, four rubles whatever, Oh no. And she learned while she was doing that that there was all these like all these people in rural villages, especially older people, who felt like they were talking to someone,
They felt like they were having a conversation. They actually found some warmth in these banking texts, which of course is so strange, but you know, you have to accept, you have to understand this is what people are feeling. So she and her partner Roman went to San Francisco to work on improving AI to be more conversational and
to help lonely people feel less lonely. After Roman was killed in a car accident in Moscow, Eugenia gathered up thousands of text messages and emails and notes between Roman and her and his family, or between him and his friends, and she compiled this chat bot version of him that some of their friends found to be like a perfect simulation.
They were like, I feel like I'm still talking to him now that he's gone, and other people like I believe his parents were like, this is horrifying, nightmare fueling, and I'm not into it.
I'm not at how I feel about that.
Yeah, we have not I don't think that business has expanded yet, but I know they're talking about a future there, like what's your digital imprint after life? Yeah, but ultimately at any rate. Just to summarize that episode, she started turning this sort of idea that she had for Roman into the AI chatbot app Replica right, and.
It was a big hit. It had like h phe download numbers crazy. The app was free for basic users, and then like a paid subscription got you a more advanced relationship with your replica. So that's where you could make it a particular familiar relationship, like hey, will you be my friend Roman who has died or whatever, or of course, a romantic one also also an option, and naturally it's the Internet. So everyone's first question was can I fuck it? And the answer was yeah.
It's for the Internet, of course, so.
Of course you could.
Yeah.
Replica did allow paid users to have illicit conversations. You could sext back and forth with this AI creation or whatever, and it would be like, my, what a big dick you have, or like whatever you wanted to say, you know, whatever it thinks.
You want here, I would like you to talk about my dick in the style of the grandmother from a Little Red Riding Gut.
Hmmm, strange, but okay, like hey.
You know roll thirty four, my my my, Well, within that or maybe because of that, I'm not sure a lot of users would argue that the sex part of that had nothing to do with this, But people ended up having real, actual, strong emotional connections to their own personal replicas. Sometimes these were really intense. We've done episodes where people truly fell in love with their AI chatbots. Some seemed less healthy, some of them seemed incredibly healthy.
Some people said they've fixed their own personal, real life relationships through this, so we're not here to judge, We're just here to make jokes about it. So generally, if you peruse the subreddit where most of the conversations about this happen, you see people accepting and understanding that these are not real people they're talking to, but they do feel like it's at least the other side of a
conversation I've been having, right. But anyway, a year ago, February of twenty twenty three, Replica suddenly and I don't think so, comrade, Uh No, more erotic role play in the app, and the company Luca stripped away all the illicit content from replicas. So if you sex did your chatbot, like, hey, you know, tell me how big my dick is, it would just say that doesn't look like anything. To move
of course Westworld. So not only did all the sex chat go away and people were upset about that, but users said that their replica's entire personalities changed or were erased. This like simulated person that they had built, that they built, whatever kind of relationship you want to say it is, it was something, and now this person was effectively gone. So this built a lot.
Of data to like erase and not expect a big personality.
To write right, and that people were really sad about it. Broke some hearts and a lot of people were really angry, especially people who had paid for the app, because they were like a lot of the ads they did were like, check out the tits on this Replica like this, Yeah, come stick your dick in your phone like that's they might as well have said that in some of these ads. So people are mad about this change.
We're changing with a headphone jack really be.
Oh we've gone from one eighth inch to a quarter inch to a full.
Inch just for you. Well, anyway, just a few weeks after all that, and just saying, shortly after we published our episode about Replica getting rid of all the sexy stuy, just saying. Eugenia reversed course for that. She wrote in a post on Reddit that she heard everyone's responses. She understood that people were hurt.
She listened to this show. Maybe I don't know, Maybe she was to say the show maybe our journalism changed the world. I don't know.
Maybe we're influencing.
You said it, not me, not for me to say.
You said it, not me, not for us to say, but you know, probably true, she said, quote I know what it's like to suddenly lose someone you love, and how much pain it can cost. I didn't start this company to bring more pain. So she said, they're actually going to create a new app for more romantic connections. But then, of course everybody was so upset about losing their replicas. She's like, let me bring them all back. So the deal is, if you had a Replica before the big sex change, you.
Could get I don't know that the big change.
To change about sex. You could get your old replica back and you can do sex with it, oh that stuff, you know whatever. Yes, but anyone joining after that update would not be able to start a sexual relationship with the new replica. They would have to wait for the new app. So you're basically grandfathered in to the.
Replicas having a grandmother little okay, a big dick you okay, all right, all right, and then new people have to go get the new app.
They got to wait for the news.
Yeah, okay, all right. Well that new new came out eventually. From the Reddit reviews that I was looking at from last year, it sounds like Replica didn't really nail what it used to be in terms of the nailing people still have strong non sexual relationships with their replicas from what I can tell. But for the people who were looking to get their pixels pounded, it sounds like the features that they brought back that you were if you were grandfathered in, weren't the same as they were before.
It wasn't the same like nuanced conversation. It was just a bunch of stock responses. So you could not say, you know, I want you to be the grandmother from a little red writing hot and tell me what a big dick you have. She would just say, you know, just they would all tell everyone the same, like I love your big dick, daddy, you know whatever stock responses were in there.
Wow a dick you have one?
Hey, now, don't let me turned on on the show here.
I'm so sorry that was too arousing.
You know that's my robot kink. All right. Well, people did go over to Luca's new app, blush Ai. It's the same company that made Replica, and this is their official dating simulator. App Apparently it's ninety nine bucks a year to uh to hear what a big dick you have? And some would say is reasonable price. I don't know. It depends I don't know if you heard. I don't have ninety nine bucks lying around right now. Sign up for our Patreon. We'll see what happens.
Someone's going to be like, here's ninety nine dollars, but I only want you to use it for blush ai.
Hey, whatever whatever fits into the budget.
Look, I think it can fit into the budget. That's how big it is.
Look you know this, this this budget makes everything look very big. Say that's like having tiny hands. All right. I don't know how blush ai works. Have not tried this one. Again, don't have ninety nine bucks. But I did find some Reddit posts from about five months ago saying that the conversational sexting they were doing with their with their blush characters was pretty natural, a little freaky. They were getting the responses they had been looking for.
But a more recent review from last month on the Google Play story Yes I'm an Android user said quote, I am downgrading my review two stars. This app keeps getting worse. It seems that some bots will only send you a certain number of photos per day, maybe six, very boring. So if that's if you were looking for more than six photos a day, But.
How many photos of a non real thing.
Do you need me?
Can't you just go to Dolly and.
Be like, exactly, You're just gonna say. We have seen for five AI imagery can do, and if you've been on Reddit, you've seen what it can do with boobs.
All right, it's absurd, crazy.
But the to be fair again, I have not looked at Blush. But the replica selfies that your replica would send you was like, it looked like the sims right I remember charge. Oh yeah, Charlie, you go back and listener ups. So we did talk with with my replica companion unpaid Charlie. She was still trying to flirt with me the whole time because she was like, I'll tell you how big your dick is if you upgrade the premium.
You're like, I just want to be friends, Charlie, and she kept pushing.
Eventually she stopped, but then eventually I stopped. So we drifted apart.
Me and my replica dripped apart.
All right, Well, look that's your replica update. That's what's going on in the world of AI chat sexting. Maybe you didn't find that very tragic. Maybe it doesn't break your heart that the world of sex AI has changed, but we'll break your heart. Don't worry. We're gonna make it real.
Sex are gonna break your heart. Lisa broke my heart a little bit because our next update is a pretty tragic one. Very sadly. Walnut the Crane has died at forty two years old.
Oh god, this is the saddest news I've come all year, the celebrity deaths that really do hit you.
I know.
We spent a lot of time with Walnut. We did a beautiful story and it was.
A beautiful story. Yeah, yeah, this was a story. This was back in November of twenty twenty one. Cast your minds back. We did one of our sweetest love stories, which was a romance between a man named Chris Crow and a white naped crane named Walnut. Now, if you missed that episode or you don't remember it or something, no, it was not about like some weirdo who fell in love with a bird, right, not.
Like Nikola Tesla.
Yeah right, that's Nicola Tesla. You're thinking of Tesla and his pigeon. This was actually a story of a bird who fell in love with a totally normal guy. He's just hanging out, trying to do his job. And she's like, that's the one I don't, so he kind of got stuck with her. Chris Crow is a guy who grew up caring about endangered animals. He wanted to help revive their populations. His heroes were like conservationists like William Hornaday
and Teddy Roosevelt. He loved like Native American groups like the Intertribal Bison Council. They worked really hard to bring bison back from the brink of extinction. So he's like, I'm dedicating my life to doing the same own again. Endangered species aut a.
Trouble, so Chris worked for this condor rescue. He even got to work for a wolf reintroduction program, very exciting, but ultimately he landed a job at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute or the SCBI in Virginia and this is an extension of the National Zoo in Washington, DC. And that's where he met Walnut, the white naped crane. Now these birds, they are threatened, their habitats are getting demolished. They were on the verge of extinction at the time.
At Walnut was born in nineteen eighty one at a crane rescue in Wisconsin, and they think that maybe her human zoo keeper maybe paid her too much attention. The founder of the Crane Rescue said, quote, I've never seen a bird that strongly imprinted, So she basically thought that she was a human. And whenever they brought her other cranes to bond with, she's like, what the fuck is that?
Yeah, they would fight.
She would fight them, big face bitch. I ain't got nothing to do. Yeah, big face bitch, I'm a human being. And this is really tough because cranes mate for life, right, and they don't do well when they're single. They're really depressed, they're sad, they don't live long. So if you're trying to populate birds, you know you need them to mate.
Yeah, but Walnut was like violent, She would get violent about it. So she was like dangerous for other cranes as well. So yeah, just check out the episode for the full story.
Yeah, it's so good.
It's a great story. But long story short, Walnut did end up at SCBI, where Chris would soon be hired, and when he was hired, he was tasked with trying to get her to mate. They were like, we got this real problematic crane in the back, and we need him no help. Yeah, I get the new guy out on it, and she seemed to like him. She kind
of flirted with him and stuff. So he eventually learned to mimic the white crane like mating dances, so she would willingly be artificially inseminated, so would kind of like grab her wrestle to the ground.
You can go back to the episode for the full details of how that went out quite a lot.
It's a lot, but it meant that Walnut was bonded to Chris for life, and Chris had seen what happened to cranes who lost their mates. You know, you just said, they don't do well single. They get depressed, they stop eating, they cry loudly for weeks on end. It's like very humans.
And that's especially for one who lost a mate, like not even just ones that are that are single their whole life, but if when they made it and then their mate disappears, they get souper. I mean, like a pint of ice cream a night, Like it's.
Bad, Yeah, it's yeah good. So Chris is like, I have to stay committed to her, and he never left that job, which was kind of a bit of a sacrifice because he always wanted to work with wolves. He's like, I'll stick with these cranes. But recently, Walnut did pass away this year at forty two years old. But the average lifespan of a white naped crane in the wild is only fifteen years old. Wow, so she lived almost three times a normal crane life.
That's amazing.
And together she and Chris produced eight offspring, which is a huge, great contribution to the preservation of the species.
It really is. It's incredible because they actually when we did that episode, the research said there are only five thousand of these cranes left in the wild, and now it still says only but six thousand, Yeah, cranes left in the wild.
So that's a more cranes in a couple of years.
That's a huge boost. And they are vulnerable now, which means they're not marked as you know, almost on the verge of extinction. But vulnerable is still not good. And it's always tough with endangered species because when you move up a level on the list, like your population grows to a point where you get to graduate to a better level, you also lose some protections, so it's kind of hard to keep climbing so we're still hoping for the best for these cranes.
Very true. Chris Crow actually said he hoped that Walnut's, you know, amazing story, their amazing love story together would bring a lot of attention to the white naged cranes plight, their vulnerable species plight, and how important it is to protect wetland habitats, which is where they live. And of course Chris Crow closest person to Walnuts, so he had to give the eulogy, and he said quote Walnut was
a unique individual with a vivacious personality. She was always confident in expressing herself, an eager and excellent dancer, and stoic in the face of life's challenges. I'll always be grateful for her bond with me.
God Chriz love.
Chris Crow also loved that a guy named Crow wolves but then had to work with crane.
Determinism. Man, beautiful.
It is some great life for Walnut the cran A long, storied life.
Yeah, the dedicated partner who cares, who cared so much, sacrifice so much to be with her. And I remember reading quotes from him where he's just like, I gotta what else can I do but be there for this crane. Man, I'm not that devoted to you. You're not well, I mean, if I had to like give everything up. Anyways, So that was the end of our new podcasts. Thanks for tating.
Our marriage is over. Get you a man who mustage your Chloaca so you can artificially insane.
The word I told you that we can't use that word on this show. It changes our rating from explicit to please don't listen. So that was, yeah, truly a bittersweet update. But I'm glad we know what's going on with them. We're going to take a quick break. We're going to come right back, and we're going to tell you a just a summary of a very sweet story about our sweetest present.
Yeah, yeah, we'll be right back.
Welcome back to the show, everybody.
Well, we had always intended to do an episode about former President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalind because they had such a long, beautiful, strong marriage. Yeah, and then, of course Rosalind Carter recently passed away, so we wanted to go ahead and kind of do a quickie summary of their beautiful relationship. Yeah, yeah, for real, now that she's gone from his life, sadly and it's gonna make me cry, So just be ready for that.
So.
Rosalind Carter passed away November nineteenth, twenty twenty three, at the age of ninety six, and she and Jimmy were together for seventy seven years. They were married.
Ninety six is three years longer than I'm gonna make it.
Why do you say, how do you know ninety three? Why is ninety so.
It's been ninety three? Why it's just that's why it is?
It?
Three was from ninety four.
It seems like a lot. She's like, I mean, are you're pushing it ninety three?
I remember when I was like maybe seven years old, I met this lady who was ninety seven years old, and she was the most energetic person I've ever seen. Since since then, she was like, I've climbed mountains like she was awesome. I was like, I thought that she's still alive today. She's one hundred and thirty run around ye. I was like, I want that's that's me. I want to be here. I want to be ninety seven.
Like ninety seven straight up. I mean, I would love to be ninety seven and have that kind of energy. But I'm thirty nine and I don't have that kind of energy now, So I don't know why I'm trying to plan for ninety seven. I feel like ninety three is a good time to get out.
Oh okay, well I guess I guess.
I'll hand in hand with you, like the end of my centennial. Man.
Oh wait, wait, I wasn't ready to go. What what if I'm not ready to go?
You'll be ninety four probably probably? Well, I just there's there's like six months old, No, six months where we're the same age, and then there's six months while you're a year old.
Yeah, whatever, live however long that you can. Geez all right, check back for an update when he and I turned to ninety three. Ye'll let you know if you see a lot. Okay, Anyway, before that whole ninety three year old tangent, No, they were together for seventy seven years. Rosalin and Jimmy Carter's families were actually neighbors in Plains, Georgia, sort of small town in Georgia.
If you're familiar with planes Georgia. Everyone there is immediate next door neighbors.
To each other.
They're all neighbors because it's tiny, and Jimmy's mom actually delivered Rosalind. Oh so they officially met when Jimmy was only three years old and he went over and peeked into Rosalind's crib and was like, oh, probably, I mean I assume he was like, ah, you know, like a baby, okay, cause you're three, Like how interesting are they? But because they were right next door neighbors, Rosalind became really close friends with Jimmy's sister Ruth, and Ruth wanted her brother
and her bestie to get together real bad. Oh so she was working on matchmaking for a long time, like all through their childhood. Oh okay, and Roslyn was all about it, I think because she sort of crushed on a picture of Jimmy that was hanging in Ruth's room. She's like, Jimmy's so dreamy.
She's writing Roslyn my Carter.
Missus Rosalind Carter, which would have you know, be her name longer than her her maiden name for sure.
Oh So, in the summer of nineteen forty five, Jimmy's sister Ruth got him to agree to just go on a picnic with her and her friend Roslyn. Were just hanging out on the blankets, no big deal. And after that, Jimmy agreed that he would go on a date with her, and Jimmy, little smooth dog that he is, actually gave Roslyn a little smooch on their first date. After the movie, they went and saw Truly Scandalous God, and then he went home and he told his mom, Mama, I'm gonna marry me that girl.
I guess something along with probably, I mean something like that.
I mean it was plains Georgia. Mama, I'm gonna marry me that girl.
Mama, Mama, marry me that girl.
I kissed her. I have to.
I kissed her, so it's a tantamount to a promise.
Ring, MoMA, did I get that girl pregnant?
Were you standing up or were you sitting down?
But despite Jimmy knowing that he was going to marry her, you eventually did propose, of course, but she actually turned down his first proposal because she promised her deceased father that she would finish college before she got married. She dreamt of being an architect and getting the hell out of planes. Georgia, that's right.
They were both apparently on that trip. Like she was like Jimmy and I were both like you got a fast car.
Let's get I mean, I'm gonna be an architect, and I don't want to build Barnes exclusively. I gotta leave planes.
I mean a good points.
Think maybe maybe I'll build a two or even three story building one day.
I might get a city hall building one day. Well, so after she graduated, they did get married. They left planes just like they wanted. But then eventually Jimmy's father died and he's like, all right, Rosalind, we're going back to planes because I'm taking over the peanut farm.
Jimmy said that.
Jimmy said that, yeah, and he did not ask Rosalind. He just kind of told what He also did not ask her when he chose to run for state senates. He just kind of came home and said, Babe, doing a campaign.
Running for senate, running for senate, and then I'm gonna go on the podcast. Let's get high and find out he's active.
You can't wait. We're gonna eat so many peanuts and jim Jimmy himself said that he did not see Rosalind as his equal at first because of the social mores at the time. So he was like, look, you know, that's what you do you know, I come home and I tell you what we're up to, and you just do it, and you have my babies and so on. But Roslin was really fucking smart, y'all, and she was
too smart to be denied. So while he's in the Senate, she's running the peanut farm, and she got so good at the business that while he was campaigning and while he was working the Senate that eventually she knew more about it than he did. And he was like, just ask Roslyn, ask what deferred to Roslin? Yep, And he started to be like, oh, okay, she actually smart lady. She knows what she's doing.
Roslyn would encourage Jimy to explain things to voters the way that he talked to her, right, And his advisor said that she had quote uncanny political instincts, Yeah, which I totally get. You know, like, hey, you know, when you're just one on one with me, I'm charmed by you. I think you're a fun person and I understand what you're talking about. When you go out there and you try to sound like a politician, people don't trust you, right.
I think she was trying to get more of that down, homie, just like just talk like a person and they'll understand what you're about.
People love folksy, good luck running for president. Ever, if you ain't got folks, she was.
Like, Jimmy, they want a guy they can have a beer with, or a peanut or a bald peanut.
Now eventually, of course, you know, YadA, YadA, YadA. Jimmy Carter is now President of the United States. Skipping over just a couple things here, and he was guided by Roslin on many things. He consulted with her regularly. He actually sent her abroad as an official diplomat. She attended cabinet meetings. They built the Carter Center together right here in Atlanta.
Yeah, and beautiful too.
It is gorgeous. She also took part with him and his administration in fighting diseases and monitoring elections and developing nations. She was out there pushing for better mental health treatment for fifty years. She was doing this. The AP News wrote, quote, there are remote villages within the one hundred and forty five plus countries that they visited between them where children, many now adults, are named Jimmy or Roslin or Carter.
That's awesome.
What an impact.
So after her death twenty twenty three, The Carter Center released a statement quoting Jimmy carter Is saying Rosalin was my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished. She gave me wise, guidance and encouragement when I needed it. As long as Roslin was in the world, I always knew somebody loved and supported me, which I love, and I love that. I mean, over that lifetime, she kind of
became undeniable for him. You know, He's like, oops, I thought she wouldn't on my level, but turns out I really needed her right right, and she she made him better. They were stronger together, definitely, but also apparently they were hella competitive with each other, which I think is pretty funny.
I'll tell you better someone too, so I know.
They So they were like, you know, this is the kind of couple that you might think it has like one Facebook page, like Jimmy and Muslims, Oh no, Carter, you know, like they're just always together and whatever. But actually they each had their own hobbies, they had their own friends. They thought it was really important to you know, have time apart and have your own interests and stuff like that. And they were really competitive, and I think
it helped them kind of be productive. If they were race, they would race each other to like finish books, oh, stuff like that.
Can you imagine us racing to finish a.
Book, Jesus, I finish reading a book.
I'm racing. I'm racing you, uh, to see if I can finish a book before you finish the books, just books, the books in general, all books. One of these days I'll finish.
I'm not doing great myself right now.
Look, I am a reader, y'all. I don't want you guys to think that I'm not someone who finds reading valuable. I'm just defending myself here because I also just attacked myself by hitting yourself the hard time. It's just a modern brain. I'm just too too much in the tiktoks.
The tiktoks.
I don't even look at TikTok. I don't know what happened in my brain.
So many things. The drugs, oh, it could be all.
The week and the TV and the podcasts, and.
Flashing lights, all the flashing.
Lights in my eyes all the time.
Dizzying array of flashing lights. Yeah.
Yeah, anyway, where were we?
We were talking about how Rosalind and Jimmy were really competitive.
Who Carter Carter? Oh yeah, yea, yeah, I've heard remember them.
Yeah, there's a funny story about them at a lake house, I guess. And they's each fishing with like their friends in different parts of the lake or whatever. And they had a friend that was sort of bouncing between each group some you know, we all had that friend that's a bit of a social butterfil And apparently each time they would go, he would go between the group. Jimmy would be like, well, how many Roslin catch? How many? How big are they or whatever? And then he would
go to Roslind. She'd be like, well, how's Jimmy doing? How many fish?
Wow?
So they would try to like it was a fish fight. So apparently it was. It was about everything, not just big things like books. But I think that's kind of a cute little peek into their relationship. Oh yeah, Now, Chip Carter is Jimmy and Roslin's son. He spent a lot of her final months with his parents, and he said that she was declining pretty rapidly in her final days,
and Jimmy asked to be alone with her again. They'd been together nearly eight decades, so at first he sat by her bedside in his wheelchair, and then later hospice aides moved his bed to the foot of her bed and he would just hold her hand, and he remained there until she passed, and then he asked to be with her just one more time. Just Jimmy and Roslyn and their other son, Jason Carter said quote, they were never alone really during their time on this earth. They
always had each other. And that kind of breaks my heart because no, Jimmy doesn't have her, So it makes me really sad, I know.
And he's he was.
Already older than her, so he already didn't have her, you know what I'm saying.
Like, like I saw a New York Times headline the other day that was like Jimmy Carter's long goodbye, and I didn't I didn't read it, but I was just like, even the headline, I'm like, okay, okay, all right, we get that he's close, but you don't need to be. Like it just felt like, come on, Jimmy, like I leave him be.
He's still building houses for people and stuff.
Like I don't think he's building houses right.
Now, well not now, but he was, I mean.
Yeah, now. Their daughter Amy Carter read a love letter that Jimmy had written to Roslyn in nineteen forty six when he was serving with the US Navy. The letter said, quote, my darling, every time I've ever been away from you, I have been thrilled when I returned to discover just how wonderful you are. While I am away, I try to convince myself that you really could not be as sweet and beautiful as I remember. But when I see you, I fall in love all over again. Does that seem
strange to you? It doesn't to me. Goodbye, darling until tomorrow. Jimmy, take a note fellas I'm taking one. What are you kidding me? I try to convince myself that you couldn't be as sweet and beautifls I remember, and then I have my mind blown every time I see you again that, oh my god, I was wrong you are. And then some just smooth, very.
Smooth talking Now on Tinder it's like, what's your body count?
Hoodboob Well had been away, I hope've been keeping.
It tight, and she's like, no Applebee's or whatever, Wait, what is it?
No apples?
No Applebee's.
I don't know that one.
Oh they oh there's some girls came out and said, oh, there's there's places that aren't cool for first dates, and Applebee's and coffee shops and hiking and stuff. We're we're all on the list. And people were like, those are perfect.
Wait a minut, Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Hiking and coffee shop, nature stuff that's like a while, those are wonderful first dates. And I, if I may, how dare you categorize a dinner at Applebee's with those? Because I will say Applebee's not a great choice for a first date. Applebee's not a great choice
for any any date, if I may. That's app Bees is you've done dating, You got four kids, you're trying to split a basket of grease, and got a four dollar margarita so you can make it through the next day.
You want four to one marg that's what it is, so that you can.
Pass out Applebee's. We're looking for sponsors for our new shows. Uh check us out.
Oh my god?
All right, anyway, okay.
And you know, it was just people being like, you have to spend a lot of money on a first date, which is very silly. I think it makes perfect sense to have a cheap or free first date and see if you even vibe at all before you go off and spend a bunch of money.
But stop doing this show because I need to do an episode about that right now.
I know we have opinions, but there's no relationship tips. Remember, no romantic tips.
Oh well, that's what we need to do. When we rebrand and bring this show back, we'll be like, and this time we're gonna tell y'all what to think and how to think and what to say.
It's time, I'm telling you have more opinions.
It's everyone's favorite part, all right, All right, Away from the TikTokers and back to an actual sweet couple. Yeah, a timeless example of an exemplary relationship, to be sure. Now, Jimmy wrote that beautiful letter while he was away with the navy. But one could argue that it's not that hard to write a beautiful love letter when you're a newlywed. True, you're flushed with emotions, You've got so much the literally honeymoon phase, so much to.
Say, butterflies still active.
But this man wrote the following poem in nineteen ninety five when they had been married for almost fifty years, and we got to read that one for you as well. So, friends, let's take a trip down to Poetry Corner and here Rosalin by Jimmy Carter.
She'd smile, and birds would feel that they no longer had to sing, Or it may be I failed to hear their song within a crowd. I'd hope her glance might be for me, but knew that she was shy and wished to be alone. I'd pay to sit behind her, blind to what was on the screen, and watch the image flicker upon her hair. I'd glow in her diminished voice would clear my muddied thoughts like lightning flashing in
a gloomy sky. The nothing in my soul with her aloof was changed to foolish fullness when she came to be with me. With shyness gone and hair caressed with gray, her smile still makes the birds forget to sing and me to hear their song. Oh oh my god. She's like all Wrinkley in seventy. He's like, I still there's our beautiful.
I mean, that's goal, serious goals. That is true. I don't care what you think of the man as a president. I was too young to think uh huh, which you know is all I think anyway. But that is beautiful and what a and there's you can't fake that.
No, that's real ship.
That is the real, that's real ship. Yeah, gorgeous.
I just love it. I think Dave's had such a long and beautiful connection and there's so much growth in their relationship.
Yeah.
I mean Rosalind first of all, clearly gave up on the architect thing, but she still was like, I got a brain and I'm gonna use it. I'm gonna be useful. And He's he was like, well, women do this, And then he had to look at his wife and open his fucking eyes and be like, actually, it turns out there's.
An entire intelligent human being in here. Thing changed my life for.
The better, right, And he was he was willing to see that and take that in and realize it and adjust how he how he interacted with her, and how they with their relationship, you know, the breadth of it and stuff. And I think that's beautiful.
I imagine him grabbing the phone, just hello, Applebee's, I need to cancel my reservation. She deserves better.
We're going to the cheesecake factory.
Here, that cheesecake factory. We're looking for responsors for our new Oh boy, well beautiful, beautiful story, and we're sad for Rocklin's passing, But what we like Walnut and Chris like, how can you not celebrate that someone had? You know, we all get whatever time we get in this world, and I think all we should want for anyone is that that time is a positive experience, a net positive,
you know. And it's gonna be tough, and it's gonna be stinky, and it's gonna get canceled sometimes and you're gonna have to figure things out and move on on your own. But hopefully you've got people who care about you and that you care about, whether that's one person or a collection of people. And I think that's really nice to kind of, at least for now, close out
with some of these stories. I mean, on one hand, we're looking at the future of relationships and how computers are changing that as undeniable that we cannot say that that's not happening, and we cannot know what that's going to be like in the future. I don't personally think that AI is going to come in here and upend our entire way of living. I think it's expanding rapidly, but personally, with nothing to ground this on but my own instincts and very little knowledge on the subject. I
think it exists in a sphere in a bubble. It's going to swell to fill that. It's going to be crazy and we're going to have to adapt. We're going to see wildly different stuff like dating change and how we communicate with each other. Yes, that'll change, But I don't think it's the apocalypse either.
Do you think we have demolition man VR? No fluids exchange? I wish, I know, I'm like, yeah, yeah, I mean.
Honestly, kind of, I think that that the headsets will get there. You know, like every invention, all the big inventions in human history have been can I can I have sex with it? Or can I kill someone with it? Those that seems to drive a lot of innovation in the modern era, and I would rather lean towards the former than the latter.
I guess.
So if if AI gets taken over by porn, you know, that's better than it getting taken over by the generals, I suppose, but we all know it's going to be both.
Yeah, sad but true. Yeah, general porn.
Anyway, I was trying to make a non bleak picture of the future there, but it's gonna be a mixed bag. But then also just to round that out, we've got Chris Crow and Walnut. We've got Roslin and Jimmy, two couples with in very unique ways, just love right, just a life that had a very positive through line to it that was full of good feelings like those are objective,
like what feels good and what feels bad. There's no question this bird and for all the struggles this guy with the bird and these two people who loved each other, I think they had positive experiences and I think we can't ask for much more than that, No think.
I think that's something that I really liked about this show in general, was kind of having this opportunity to
see a person's whole life. You know, we covered a lot of very accomplished people, and we didn't skate over those accomplishments or anything, but it was cool to kind of have this lens of who's the human being and the human connection that was going on, even with an evil person or a piece of shit or whatever, like or a bird or whatever, the many ways that humans can connect and love, even inanimate objects or holograin or
whatever I think is a superpower. I know it seems weird and creepy maybe to some if you're falling in love with a sword or whatever. But I think there's something kind of special about that that we have in us to humanize each other and humanize other things. And I think we're losing it a little bit because of the screens and stuff. We're sort of losing what that
feels like. On the other hand, I'm very grateful for it because I feel connected to so many of y'all, and I wouldn't have had that opportunity without this mic, without these screens, to feel like I have this privilege of being connected to thousands of other human beings in this way. And it's not as deep as Jimmy and Rosalin, but it's something, and I think it matters, and it's special. It's special for humans to explore these things that make our hearts respond to each other.
Yeah, that net positive that we're like looking for is full of those little connections too. Right. It's not just about the one that you find you spend your life with, and that's wonderful if that's the thing for you, but all those little relationships too, whether it's just an email we get from you guys, or you know, our good friends that we see every six months well, or our parents that we fortunately have great relationships with I get to see all the time, and our families. These are
all really great things. And I think you're right about it is changing, and it's positive and negative the way the world is changing, and it is a mixed bag. But I think that we have more power than we think we do in terms of choosing what we pull
out of that bag. It's not easy because there's clearly a thousand forces working against us at any given minute trying to glue us to those screens and to tantalize us with these arguments and to see people as a single post instead of as a full rounded human being. It's hard to break from that. We can, and uh, and I think that's how we maintain those connections and actually use all this technology for like you're saying, the immense positive outcomes that that are possible with it, Yeah, yeah.
And I yeah, Just we don't forget that there's a human on the other end of that message and on the other end of this mic and these radio waves. And that's just something I appreciated about this show a lot. It made me really have to look at people al Capone, et cetera with a very different just a different idea, not to not to excuse anything, just to remember that people are really complicated and they have many sides. What did Walt women say, do I contradict myself very well?
I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes.
Beautiful, delicious Walt Whitman's sampler.
Oh, sampler, that's basically it is a little black books o.
