Ye, well what about right now? But right now it's time for this. He's out following. Oh you're saying, now, I get it. I don't have
to eat the pill. Eat the pill, eat the pill. There's some funny small town games coming in. How for the Yeah, what do you have? Last segment? We're talking about old town game that you would do to pass the time in small towns because you don't have six flags and football. Yeah, I mean, there's just a lot. Some of them are just jokes. This one I haven't even read it. I grew up in Savoy, Texas. Oh Savoy boy, north of it, directly on the
Red River. I had known. My age is a neighbor. I used to hit rocks with a stick for four hours a day, pretending I was playing baseball. I would do the announcers voices and everything. Then go to the creek and try to find snakes. Ye, dude, crowded fishing, so legit, Oh my god, what a smear the Q mean mm that's we called it. Tackle the man with the football. So did we. We called it tackle the man with the football. I don't know what you
would with the football? Yeah, we would. That doesn't rhyme. I didn't even know politically correct. Well, I didn't know that it was. I didn't know it was called smear the queue until I got to to Dallas. I had no idea. I swear to god, I am not kidding you. There was a lot of racist stuff that went on and around me and my small down that one wasn't. Yeah, I never heard that until I moved here. I was like, what y'all call it? That was like, No, we just called it tackle the man with the football.
I know it's a long title, but that's what it was called. We definitely played smear the que and you call it like that, Yeah, you big town lives yaks, so righteous, and then here you are calling that game. Yeah, you're right, we're small town country bumpkins. We're calling it tackle the man correctly calling football. You really called it football? We both did aggressive in nineteen eighty three. Yes, we called it smear the Q. Very forward thinking kids, and you guys are to have your mind
rocked. Yeah, I was feeling my mind's not going to be rocked, but I'm interested to hear what you have to say. This is why you texted your friend. By the way, no superlatives, okay, I know you've no five year contracts for me. A US firm has installed this memory disc that contains a vault of human history and they've put it inside this underground village in a mountain in Switzerland. It's a futuristic disc. It holds sixty
million microscopic pages of human knowledge. It's designed to survive a cataclysmic event, the apocalypse. It's got it. The entire contents of Wikipedia, Rosetta, Stone, books, photos, illustrations, every key aspect of world culture and art and history and sports and entertainment is on these discs. There's small discs that hold a bunch of space and they're hid in this thing that's called the
Global Knowledge Vault. And this is I have thought about this. First of all, some of the comments are a little a little caustic because it's like we're overdue for a big, you know, catastrophe. But there's this company that they're calling it the Art Mission Foundation, and they are already they're gonna send these discs to Mars and Venus as well. The chairman of this project basically said, if something really bad happens on Earth, this will be our
planetary insurance policy. Okay, so it's got things that represent our history and our current culture, everything, everything that we've done, really everything from our civilization and our civilization is three hundred years, four hundred years in this country. How long have we been civilized people? A little launder three hundred years. In year sixteen hundred, we were not civilized people. I mean we were. No, they were not. What do you mean by civilized?
They were throwing pooh at each other. They were not civilized sixteen They were playing small town country games, Kevin. They were able to construct large wooden ships to traverse the seas. That doesn't mean you're civilized. What do you think civilized? What is wrong with you behaving like a normal person? Thousands of years, thousands and thousands of years, thousands of years BC we were technically. Let's just agree to disagree on the definition of what civilized means.
I suppose your version of civilization could be different than mine, because Kevin doesn't think that civilization started until the iPad. Yeah, I mean never had an iPad. Sure, So is this database is it? Is it searchable to determine exactly what's in it? No, it's the public I said. It's a disc disc like how made out of quartz and that single disc. So the size of it, they're smaller than this. But if it was the size of a compact disc, this is the way they used it to scale,
it would hold three hundred and sixty terabytes of info. So they've got a bunch of these and they've put them underneath like in a mountain, in a vault. It's like a James Bond Villains like layer and it's got a huge steel door. Now, they took the publication the Sun in and showed them like they have to go in there, and it's effing wild. They have a railway, they have underground, a full underground network, and they're like, it's not like a tunnel. They do have undergroun tunnels, but
it's like it's not like it's just tunnels. It's an underground village. They despite being under all these like three hundred met of like rocks, because they're inside a mountain and a big huge steel door inside that, they still have strong phone connection and Wi Fi and that's where they're gonna store all this just in case. No, I love this, Kim Jong un goes bam. It's the button and future civilizations generations will be able to have some some context.
How do the future civilizations get inside the giant steel door? Is there a map with an X on it? Yeah? What if they don't have the retinal scan of the evil Bond villain? That's the best question, because I think that's the best question so far on this topic in the history of the station. Because you're you're you are like, I mean, that's the because the the big steel gate is not there to I don't think prevent intruders. That's there to prevent bomb or destruction of the planet. So maybe it's
just unlocked. It says this facility has constant conditions, constant temperatures, sits many three hundred meters of rock on weekends, at host music festivals, wedding ceremonies, and concerts, So they find having people run in there, So that's a little weird. This doesn't sound That's where it gets a little shoddy. Yeah, you're gonna find a bunch of beer cans and cups. Future civilizations will find never reds, solo cups everywhere, break it up, and
no one cleaned up after this party. The Global Knowledge Vault, and I think you're going to be hearing more and more about it in the coming days. I wonder who curated the content for this Wikipedia, because I guarantee you it's not complete. That's interesting, the Sun. What a good article do they have? Inside secret project backing up Earth in case of World War III?
With bomb style Alpine vault holding all human knowledge? The massive bunk as five and a half kilometers of underground tunnels, caverns and laboratories, and even its own miniature railway. Switzerland. Is this a collective effort between nations, world government? Or is this just Switzerland doing their own things. I don't think it's that. I think I think it's I think it's his own. It's a a Roague company, it says, a US firm has installed a
British designed Superman memory disc containing a compendium of human history. All right, let's get these people on. I tried to. I've actually hollered at these Uh. The doctor who speaks in that article, doctor comp stature, doctor evil. Oh it's evil. Now that's the CEO, Right, does a doctor of that article, doctor comp stature, you say he was the one who was going on and on about the Wi Fi down there. But I love this sort of thing, I believe if we have and it may be
included in this too. But in the Arctic somewhere, isn't there the Global seed Vault? You ever heard of that? That came up in the article And I didn't know what it was and was real tired, so it didn't click on it. They have what is? It's no, not the seeds of people. Well, I bet you had a seed vault in the eighth grade, Niki, under your bed? Anything else to do? We get it? You just stayed inside all right here? It took shots at the
help. I admitted that to you in confidence. The Global Seed Vault in Small Barred is wedged into a small island in the Arctic, halfway between Norway and the North Pole. It's not a popular vacation destination. The vault is a secure bank for the future of the world. It holds duplicate samples spare copies of seeds held in gene banks worldwide. The Seed Vault provides insurance in the event of a large scale, regional or global crisis. It's essentially a
back up security plan for wait human knowledge that underlies the Internet. Yeah, so maybe there's a different one, same idea though, but I thought it was a literal seeds to read plant. That makes sense that that would exist. Yeah. Yeah, it's kind of like that. What do they call them those time capsules when you're in high school and you open them up at like your twenty year reunion and go back and read them. We see what's
in the buck? Did you do one of those? We did one of those where I was we were on mushrooms and we took video of us predicting what we'd be doing in like thirty years or something. I think I had myself winning two green jackets two not one, two to Claret Jugs. I think I was gonna double Grand Slam the majors. You're gonna catch Jack when I was sixteen years old, have yet to win one. That's not doing barely break ninety right now, but not giving up. But they an amateur
last week, that's right. But there was a people because of drug use that were worried about it. So they were like some friends were like trying to like get rid of the damn thing, and then they added on so much crafter the school. They dug it up, and I think it was all destroyed. Oh no, yeah, so we're in the clear. We never did one of those, never did a time, No, I never
did what do you call it? Time? Time? Yeah? Yeah, it's the great idea, though, man, And I think we dug one up in school or in college or something like the date that's supposed to be dug up. We did it up and it wasn't all that interesting, but it's a cool idea. We wrote letters to ourselves in like eighth grade, and allegedly that's going to be coming back to us soon. Let's see eight three, like thirteen fourteen. Yeah, yeah, allegedly that's going to be
coming back in thirty years or twenty five years. They send those out. It's like a tradition. It only back in the day. So you wrote a letter to yourself and they were in the eighth grade. And who's going to mail this to you is if the teacher's still alive. Right, you assumed the teacher. But they're small town traditions. You're passing. I am tired, yea, that means too tired to mail. Oh no, and also the teacher. You know what, those teachers are probably still alive.
I think a lot of my teachers are still alive. And it's probably because they were actually like twenty five and I thought they were sixty. Yeah, because you just have no reference, like anybody that is, yeah, out of college is one hundred years old. Ye when you're when you're a kid, right, they're probably twenty four. Yeah, it's not that different twenty four. Well, you know about is it the golden disc on the Voyager U, the Space Mission Voyager. It was launched in nineteen seventy seven,
that's the one that there. It's just going, which is awesome, like to think in nineteen seventy seven they have the foresight to say, screw it, let's try this, and how the hell's it? It's just still going and somehow communicating with us civilized, just going. You're right, that was the day we achieved a real civilization was at nineteen seventy seven. It was sixty. But they put a disc on it with I believe audio recording.
It might almost be exactly a record to let other extraterrestrials basically to share information with them. I have it hang on because it's super interesting. The Golden Record. Here you go. They're still in communication with this thing, with the Voyager. They know where it is. Yeah, is it outside of our galaxy or is it still floating around? I mean, I have no idea about this stuff. As of twenty twenty three, the Voyagers are still
in operation beyond the outer boundary of the heliosphere in interstellar space. The collect and transmit useful data to Earth. Okay, what an ambitious, badass program. But they have a thing on it. I think it's like welded to the side of it. I believe it's called the Golden Record. Um, this is in nineteen seventy seven. Yeah, you're sure it's just not a copy of led Zeppelin's presence. Yeah, They're like, this covers it,
so maybe it's not. Okay. Pioneers ten and eleven, which preceded Voyager all right, both carried small metal plaques identifying their time and place of origin for the benefit of any other spacefares that might find them in the distant future. Oh. With that example before them, NASA placed a more ambitious message aboard Voyager one and two, essentially a time capsule intended to communicate a story
of our world to extraterrestrials. The voyager messages carried out is carried by a phonograph record, a twelve inch gold plated copper disc containing sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth. That's the proper it's awesome, but it's also the proper scientific process. It's why we have personal records, it's why doctors have our records and things like that. There are all things that you need to advance. We need to know what happened.
We need a data from the past to go off of. And we're just trusting that the people who might in one million years receive this have a working record player. It's just gonna be. It's good. Well, it's gonna be a record player per se, because they should have bolted a record player to the side of the voyager. That's true. Also, we have to wonder if the peoples from planet x M four to two two planets speak ex
Hamster speak English, that might help. Well, that's the point is that a stone is in there, though the entire Rosetta Stone database will be in there, but that's what this is, containing sounds and images. The point elected to portray diversity and life on Earth. So it's not just what's a and they're gonna have Oh my god, you guys found this. Yeah,
they're gonna be radiated peoples, hies. The real key to your legacy is making sure what your Wikipedia page is updated and truthful at the minute our world it ceases to exist in the next world does, because that's what they'll pull up on that disc. So someone was doing a bit that says that Justin Throw cries after your orgasms, then that's gonna suck for him, but he'll be dead and't care. Right, we'll all be dead. Birthdays. Let's
go interesting pivot birthday? Is it Justin Throw's birthday? No, Misha Barton's thirty eight? Oh my friend? That is your OC friend. I'm better friends with Rachel Bilson.
