I knew about Thursday's vote to authorize what me and peace mean yes the impeachment inquiry. They voted on Thursday Democrats kept coming to the well of the House and saying things like I take no pleasure in impeaching the president which is a weird way to say I take great pleasure in impeaching this president honestly if you're a Democrat and you can't derive pleasure from impeaching this president you need a fistful of Zoloft and meanwhile the Republicans when they got their turn to speak kept shouting about the fact that they were being bullied by the majority finally Trump supporters found a minority whose rights they care about. Their food you know on Virtue signal it really is yes well social justice warriors those kind of problems that I feel like to be balanced they should have gone up and been like we take great pleasure in their ass and we vote against Yes we're having so much fun since Great Republicans also kept talking and complaining about how the all the secretive hearing so far had been happening down in the basement. As if that's bad it's a secure conference room in the basement of the Capitol I mean it's not like Jerry Mathers was barging into the hearing every few hours to do with laundry. Although when he was occupying this basement room last week Matt gets good keep shouting out for his mom to bring in more popcorn to be fair he was really into a fortnight game and what was he going to do you get it in South Iowa. The thing that amazes me and I money I'm sure if I have a joke about this it's just the president I will remember after the 1st whistle blower complaint became known he released the transcript and in the transcript of this call he does exactly what he was accused of doing he demands a favor and investigation in exchange for 8 and he continues to say well it was perfect as you can read in the transcript there's nothing wrong. And there is something wrong with that so you have raised a toddler Yeah yeah you. Know it's the equivalent of did you break that you know all. I saw you break but my toddler my toddler daughter did not look at the broken thing in the ground and say it's not broken Oh my God it's not broken you know my child learned or really. I didn't do it and I'll never do it again and also tears and broken. But what you did is a Republican toddler Yes. You don't kid around at my own. All right here is your next quote no Netflix No That was filmmaker Judd Apatow responding to the news that Netflix is now allowing some users the option to do what. Well give you a hint this is something that you can now do with t.v. Shows or movies on Netflix that you can already do with podcasts which by the way I find insulting don't do it to me Well you know I. Don't know what Kimberly I want to do I Well thank you if you said take me through it the answer is speed them up Netflix is allowing users now just watch video and movies on their site up to 1.5 times the normal speed so it's farewell Netflix and chill Hello Netflix and come on come o'clock in the. Last week some people watching Netflix on their phones found that they had this option they play back up to 1.5 speed which on the one hand is a terrible insult to the careful work of filmmakers but on the other hand makes the really slow stuff like the movie Roma into action movies. And if you like you can find out what it would be like to hear David McCullough narrate a documentary while high on cocaine. Is like no. Looks like honestly our stuff isn't really worth your time yeah I really hate to watch Planet Earth at like one and a half speed because it has been a while climate change is faster than I thought yeah i know i am killer hang on late Woody Allen Yeah I did benefit but I guess I just put it out there a little Yeah Woody Allen should speed up his wife's age to 1.5 c. . Was. I was. I don't know why do you mean I'm virgins the situation that that you need something at 1.5 feet right well it's just if you don't have time just don't watch a thing it's like oh I need a Queer Eye stats a good way to spank you know she's not that I'm bank it like you know I need to know what kind of Booth make sure we're. All right here is your last quote Now Ok you're a free kick bulldog bro that was Davey Martinez talking to a man named Max Scherzer after their team the Washington Nationals did what this week they wonder. What they did they won their 1st World Series. The Washington Nationals won it in 7 games against the Astros and for the 1st time in history the winning team won all the road games it makes sense they were just so happy to be away from d.c. . By the way among many other interesting things this is the oldest World Series roster of players ever for example pitcher Fernando Rodney is 42 years old and their shortstop is Joe Biden I'm it was in fact the 1st World Series win in Washington since 1904 and things have changed tremendously Back then President Calvin Coolidge threw out the 1st pitch and today Calvin Coolidge is dead. Now as you know. All. Current president attended game 5 in Washington he did not throw out the 1st pitch he didn't want to do and they told him he could drive his golf cart right on to the pitcher's mound. Instead the president just attended the game and when he was shown on the scoreboard and the whole stadium booed him it was terrible and it couldn't felt any better when Malani a kind of joined in. Interesting Lee if Calvin Coolidge were at this year's World Series he would have been the ones they. Were Ok or not good jokes yeah I guess there's something about baseball that you may think baseball should be played at 1.5. Bill how did Deborah do in our quiz 2 out of 3 for sure but we will remember 3 out of the 3 Deborah you did well congratulations Deborah thank you for your member of the us. Right now panel it is time for you to answer some questions about this week's news Josh turns out great white sharks are just like us I knew it. I get out of a question I just want to tell you that I'm with you know I know great white sharks sometimes like to have what brunch. You know what I'm just going to give it to you because I don't know when in the day they're doing it we were looking for dinner parties yeah at dinner party brunch you know you know I. Accidentally getting it right I'm I think it's perfectly fine I didn't because I didn't want to I didn't want to like have to hint you do another meal I and I get to my meals just fine because I'm so great white sharks are stereotypically loners they hunt on their own for seals and Richard Dreyfus but a new study out of Australia says that 4 or 5 times a year great whites get together with other great whites they've no. Own for a while and they share a meal you know a little baby seal a little sea water to drink of you thinks great but then it all falls apart when Phil over there gets drunk cuts himself in the glass and another feeding frenzy breaks out 3 or 4 times a year just makes me feel bad for how infrequently I see some of my friends isn't it terrible like sharks have a better social life than me that I know are very sad yet it doesn't mean they see each other seasonally yet then the rest of the year they don't see yeah well but that was what was so surprising because they didn't I mean sharks don't normally go out like in-laws little bit o. And they Ok Are shark something. That I assume so because of the distance of more sharks Yep that's where baby shark comes in and.

As LEDs are going to play our game in which you must try to tell truth from fiction Bill what is Lance's topic if you want something done right do it they say that the key to being a successful person is to learn how to delegate to give you everything yourself but the trick is other people often do with worse our panelists are going to tell you 3 stories of people who should have just done the damn thing themselves guess which one is telling the truth and you'll win our prize the waiter of your choice on your voicemail you ready to play I'm ready All right 1st let's hear from him again for song in October 23rd team Chinese developer 10 Yeah whoi was pissed a rival real estate developer in China sued him over a project and he couldn't handle it so he thought the best solution was murder now murder sounds extreme but to be fair he probably wasn't loved enough as a child and you know he'll just have to sort that out with China's famous therapy culture. Back to murder he decided to hire a hit man and he paid that hit man about $283000.00 to murder his rival developer the hitman took half the money for himself and used the other half to hire another hit man then the 2nd hit man subcontracted to a 3rd hit man paying only $38000.00 up front then another $71.00 G.'s when the murder was done but then the 3rd hit man subcontracted to all 4th hit man and paying even less then this hit man went to. Hit Man At which point they really just should have formed a boy band. And he was only offered $14000.00 for the job at that point I'm just like you might as well do the murder for free you know what I mean who was with me fellow assassin Ok. But the thing man is struck with like a pang of more reality and actually tells the developer that there's a hit out on it and then and only then. Did someone call the police all 5 hit men were charged with intentional homicide intentional but really lazy homicide and sentenced to between 2 and 4 years at a Chinese iphone factory you know I think I mean prison at prison. And a very business to hire the hit man who hires a hit man why is it minimize it minimize it minimize a hit man and nobody gets it that's Negin story your next story of delegating it responsibly comes from p.j. O'Rourke Well there was a grave diplomatic incident in France recently the Ministry of Trade was hosting a state dinner for the American Association of beef exporters the French minister of trade to kill surprise tests Americans told the ministries chaff to. Be done you know on the sim their butts couldn't a for them the chef who's from Burgundy was deeply offended and turned the general over to his sushi chef but the French sushi chef Union was on strike so the menu was left to the state dinners Maitre d. His mistress owns a business called Le Roy. The mistress sent a ministry driver to pick up the entree but the driver a recent immigrant from Estonia misunderstood Roy a birthday and went to a wrong restaurant and stood where his order was taken by a young lady who had just become a militant vegan and that is how the American Association of beef exporters ended up with impossible whoppers. A group of American. Exporters gets your impossible whoppers because of a chain of failure in France and your own. Last story of a delegator disappointed comes from Josh Vandeman last week a Greek fisherman named cost us as a mouse went to the dentist complaining of an infected tooth the dentist told him the condition was an urgent and the next available point to get the 2 through it wasn't for 3 weeks asa most posted on Facebook that in protest he intended to tie the offending tooth to a buoy with twine Well a friend drove his octopus fishing boat away from the shore to extract it from his mouth Unfortunately as in most acquaintance a novice sailor was a timid pilot and didn't reach a sufficient speed to yank the tooth out consequently Asimo as was dragged from the craft while the truth stayed firmly affixed to his guns and the boat sped into the harbor its driver too anxious to notice what had happened I see most still tethered by string to the buoy treaded water for 3 hours until a member of the Coast Guard picked him up after receiving several reports of a mermaid bobbing in the waters and. I bear no ill will towards my friend said as a most after being rescued However I still do not trust my own reasonable dentist. All right here are your choices. From the gain far saga story from China about a man who hired a hit man who hired him and hired hit man who hired hit man wired to hit man and total of 5 hit men get hired but no one got murdered from p.j. O'Rourke how a group of American beef exporters got served and possible whoppers in France because of a series of buck passing among them or from just on them in the s
