Bonus: Drop Us A Line - Will We Pass the Inspection?

0:00Hi everyone, welcome to a super duper bit of bonus material courtesy of your friends and no such thing as a fish. This is an episode of Drop As Align which is our audience feedback show. If you listen to it and you have no idea what's going on then don't worry you are in good company because this was Anna's first episode back after maternity leave and honestly she had no idea what was going on either. This episode was released on Club Fish quite a few months ago. Club Fish is a Patreon place. If you go to patreon.com slash Club Fish you can find out all of the stuff that's on there but we're also releasing it because if you like what you hear and if you are in London then you can come and see our first ever live Drop As Align recording at the London Podcast Festival on 12th of September. Streaming and in-person tickets are available now at nosuchthingsofish.com slash live but in the meantime all we want

1:03you to do really is to listen to it and enjoy it. So please listen to our audience feedback show, Drop As Align on with the podcast. Hi. Hello. Oh yeah you got it. I was going to tell you what you have to do in this situation. I remember the high work. Welcome everybody to Drop As Align. Look who it is. Look who it is. Special edition. It's Anna's first episode back on Drop As Align which is now by the way the main thing we do Anna. Everything else is a front for Drop As Align. Okay. This is the heroin behind the scenes of grocery shop. Yep. Cool. So so welcome. Thank you. Right. Cut. Welcome to Drop As Align. Our audience feedback show. My name is Andrew Hunter Murray and I'm here with Anna Tijinsky and James Harkin. Hi Andy. Hi guys. Hello. We've had some fantastic emails.

2:10I'm not even exaggerating. So we're going to start off with just a section one off section, the return of Anna because lots of people have been writing in. That's nice because when you first came on the podcast, when you came back after your break, the first thing you said is, is it not going to be like a special intro for me? Starting with fact number one, it's Anna Tijinsky. Just strip my facts straight or a little welcome back to me and true. No. Come on. Do the fact you want to work back at her intro? Like a little speech or something. Welcome back at it's been awful without you. I know. I've heard the episodes. I'd rather pull my own teeth out. I'm doing the intro three weeks late. I've been saving it up because there have been so many nice comments. So let's have a few. Great. See if you can spot the theme of these comments. Okay. Sarah writes, love the podcast and looking forward to Anna's return so that she can whip you boys back into shape. Frank Cardinali writes, just wondering if you three are fearful of Anna's

3:16reaction to what has become of the podcast in her absence. Fortunately, I've never listened to it. I love it, but it does have a feeling of the kids running rampant while mum's been away. Oh. Theo Warren, welcome back Anna. Please get these guys back in line. Anthony, come wait to hear Anna back on the show. Brackets, you guys are great, but after a while the class needs a teacher. Wow. Okay. Wait a second. Look, I thought this is going to be a big Anna's so great fest, but I've been called a mom and a teacher. It's very Anna is the disciplinarian. Right. It's what the listener has been getting over the last 12 years. Don't know how you've got that. Because I thought myself as the chilled out fun loving clown. Oh no. And but a correction from Didry Cooper. Okay. The podcast blurb in the Apple podcast player referred to Anna as a prodigal podcaster. Oh yeah. I saw that. Prodigal means spending money or resources freely and recklessly, which is what the prodigal son did. Yeah. The story in the Bible, he spent all his money and he had to come back and I saw the blurb. It angered me as well, Didry. Don't get me wrong. I felt like it wasn't a good start

4:19for me to open my return by sending a furious WhatsApp message on our production group. But yes, prodigal refers to the habits of the son who returns, not the returning. Sure. Yeah. But I was merely using it as a metaphor for you. So people would know that you did something similar to what the sun did, which was return. Yes. No, I get that. I get that. But I think also you are wasteful and extravagant. Yeah, that's actually what takes them secretly. That's why I've had to come back to the show I didn't want to. Right. Thanks, but no thanks. Which I think you might have coined, Anna. It sounds like me. It sounds a bit polite for you. Well, congratulations, Raphael Alvarez. Had an idea for a new tier of Club Vish. Okay. That's nice. So we've got a dual citizenship, plenty more fish and then friend of the podcast. Raphael is pitching, so of the podcast. For an exorbitant amount of money, members can claim one of a limited number

5:21of foes of the podcast to curate or fight. Haven't worked out the details. A few examples to get it going. Mark Twain, Adolf Hitler, Zoe Williams, the guardian writer. Do we have FIFA Zoe Williams? She wrote a piece asking why we're such bros of this podcast. And it was I think even if you disagree with that piece, I think Hitler and Mark Twain. That's not at the Mark Twain and Zoe. What a weird dinner party. On the Treaty of Versailles. Yeah. Okay. Greg Wallace, of course. The podcast. He was for a small amount of time. We mentioned that a few times as a photo of the podcast. Did we call it before or after he became a photo of everyone else? For bonus in Vektiv, people in this tier can hear the uncensored clip in which Anna says which country has the ugliest men and all the one in which Dan says which celebrity rejected a chance to meet Buzz Aldrin because they weren't a fan of space. Yeah. There's been a few of those

6:22reductions over the years. Yeah. But the thing to know is that I delete the original. Yeah. So you can never go onto my hard drive and find out who those celebrities are because I delete them. That's good. Just in case someone steals my laptop. Soly. So they can find out which celebrities are not in space. Which country has the ugliest men? It's so weird. I really want to have access to that file. So I know who I think has the ugliest men. Yeah. It must have been. I wouldn't have redacted it if it was a country that we would never play it. Right. Oh, that will. That limited. I see. I feel like I would only do it if it was like whales or something. So when we might play it, you might. It's not even a country though. Moving on. That's a joke. People of whales. Let's go on to. Let's move on. Just a joke. It's just a joke. Yeah. To a bonus bream. Oh, yeah. But it's also a get yourself off the hook. Oh, I don't know. I'm not familiar with

7:22these. Go on then. Okay. Bonus bream is where we get extra information about something that we said in the podcast. Getting yourself off the hook is where we've made a mistake and Andy tells us about it. But you may be able to get yourself off the hook. It's worth saying that all of these names have lots of sub names that mean the same thing. Or sometimes the same name is two different things. I'm sad that I missed all the brainstorming sessions. There was no brain starting. There was one brain involved. Yeah. I feel weird. I don't know how you feel about it. I feel weird like I'm presenting. Drop us a line two Anna and I feel a bit nervous. I'm not surprised. You do. With good reason. Yeah. Yeah. You're just in your off-stead, I think. And I'm a teacher who's like been whossing around for a long time. We haven't had that measure for measure. I'm just saying. If you thought it wasn't fun being called a teacher, you've now got to off-stead. The one who fires the teachers. Right. And we've been dealing with a manageable

8:24class size of two. But I've still screwed it all up. I would say. Okay. Jamie writes, I write in the confidence that Europe podcast who appreciates extremely pedantic corrections. Fair enough. In your most recent episode, it was stated that neither Oliver nor Richard Cromwell could have observed the Chinese steam car. I believe it was you who said that. Yes, me said that. While this is true, because it was in the 1680s. While this is true of Oliver, Richard Cromwell could in fact have observed it. He reigned as Lord Protector for less than a year, but then resigned and lived in exile until the age of 85, dying in 1712. And we've mentioned this before. He was the longest lived head of state until Queen Elizabeth II. And did he go and live in China? That's right. Hey, here's the fun thing I read. This is bonus cream from me. Okay. Who's the first European that you can think of who went to China? Do you know he wasn't often kind of obviously. There was other people who went even as far

9:29back as I should Greek some people went to China. But Marco Polo's dad and his uncle both went to China. No, he wasn't even the first Polo to go to China. That's really good. Isn't that nice? They must have been so pissed off with him when he got the blame. He was a nepo explorer. I should have known because in his memoirs, he calls his dad drunk from a beach saying, please find me out of the his bonus cream from Peter Blum. In a recent episode, you noted, Earth is the only place with plate tectonics and that they thus may be necessary for life. Interesting. Did you know there is another hypothesis which suggests that life is actually required for plate tectonics? Because little life is so abundant, small like microorganisms, that it creates things like mud and limestone and that sort of lubricates the plates and that might kick start the kind of tectonics we now have. What a theory. It sounded silly, but when you explain it, you're not just saying that a human one day said

10:33earthquakes and it happened, then it makes sense, actually. It does. I love that all modern earth and rock are all made of animals. I always love that the reason chalk is white is just because it's skeletons. The white lives of Dover is all just dead things. As a boring old teacher, you would like chalk. We actually have an interactive whiteboard. That you've drawn on with permanent market by mistake. Radio clan number one. Radio clan, am I? What are you thinking of? I was actually here for this. Radio clan gate. I really hoped it might have blown over in the night. Nothing has blown over. That even more shit has blown into where we are. Right. I didn't know we had turned into a segment. What segment would it be? Do you think? What does it mean? It's something where we say, what's this thing? A million people write in and say, I'm so insulted I'm this thing. Brilliant. Just getting a lot of emails about something. What's the radio clan

11:38this week? I'm going to start with Laura Falkiner. I'm writing it off the back of the later's little fish to let you know that rag and bone men, brackets people, are still going strong. Rag and bone people. They're not going strong. I don't know the context for where are they going strong? What happened was I mentioned that when I was growing up we had rag and bone men. In fairness, they're not always men, but they're always known as rag and bone men. We're okay from anyway. We started growing up and even into my 20s we had them. And I mean, was very surprised by that. Yeah. Well, I've been schooled thoroughly. Sheffield 2020 to 2022. Laura Falkiner has seen evidence of them calling for any old iron. She says James isn't old. He's just northern. That sounds like someone saying something when they look at my face. Oh, you look old. I'm not old. I'm just northern. Rob Hardestie says I remember them on horse-drawn carts in the late 70s and early 80s in Rochdale.

12:40Maybe it was a northern thing. Annie Self lives in the small rural town of Bungay. Oh, it's Bungay, not Bungay. Sorry. Famous for having lots of Satanists. Not that I've ever met one. Not that you know, Annie. Really? Are they like the Mason's or something? You don't know. I mean, it's just that. You wouldn't mention it. Well, probably some people mentioned it as soon as they meet you're high. I'm a Satanist actually. I like the people Bungay. I like the people Bungay. Like the people Bungay. Like the people who are Satanists. They'll tell you as they pull out your twitching hearts and rub it on a wall to open a portal to nether realms. But Annie says we have some guys come around in again in a flatbed truck shouting any old iron, which is the proper. Annie will die. Annie will die. Annie will die. See, that's a cut me song. Isn't that? Yeah. Then Lisa Cirties has a slightly related thing because she remembers them from Hartley Pool. It is going strong. That sounds like I take it back. But Lisa moved to Hartley Pool and says we have some of the last sea colors. Twice a day they drive a truck out to the beach

13:42when the tide is out. Gather the coal that has settled on the beach with shovels and load it into their truck every day. So that's it. I think they're turds aren't they? They burn the same. They burn sweet and bright. And then Lisa says there are many places in the world where coal deposits wash up on the beach. Yeah, I think not. But Hartley Pool is one of them. No way. It sluffs off and washes onto the beach. Sluffs off from nearby. From the coal the sea. The nearby seam of coal, which is exposed at the seabed. Wow. That's fantastic. Daniel Painter says in Little Fish you had a quick think of who is the most happy modern day leader? Oh yeah, that's good. Does the Pope count? Oh, he has to. Yeah, he's winning, isn't he? What constitutes a hat? Are you thinking Skullcats for a chief rubber or something? I'm thinking Skullcats. I'm thinking like Yassara Fats. You know what, that's what I said. And they mocked me. I've not been up to date with my world leaders. He's not old. He's just Palestinian.

14:47There's someone else. He's a cultural marker, so I think he's not more do better if he always wore a top hat. Yeah. Oh, without doubt. He wouldn't hate it. Anyway, look, we've got 50 pages of evil. He's his Christ, Andy, because I have to leave today. You think you go when I say you go, not when the bell says you do. Right, let's come on to Both Fins. Oh, I'm so glad this is still in. Yeah. Experts on stuff who have written in to school us. Mendel Skullski. What name? If you're good, if you ran a ski school. Who says I run a small ski school on the... Just thought I'd offer a slight correction on the kelp highway hypothesis. Okay, so this was the theory that humans moved down the American coast to follow the seaweed. The West Coast where there was lots of seaweed. I think it was James who mentioned in passing that people were surviving in transit by it in kelp. I think it was. I think it was. It was. It's quite likely that some kelp

15:52was being consumed, but more likely it was all manner of seafood. Fair point. kelp houses lots of animal species. Yeah, I see that, but there's kelp. There's other stuff. But he says, in case you're interested, we, future ecologies, spent three whole episodes talking about kelp and its ecological and social entanglements. Is this an ad for this guy's podcast? Well, I... Redacks that. I suppose so, yeah. Unless they pay us. Okay, but Mendel then adds a great fact, which is the reason I wanted to come to this. It's the fact that sea otters were restored to the West Coast of North America after having been driven nearly to extinction right, sea otters are almost white, too. And they were restored not for ecological restoration, but to evacuate them from impending US nuclear testing in Alaska. That's just a cool fact about that. Right, I don't know what section this is. Oh, it says, Miss, at the top here. Does everything need to be a section? Yeah, surely.

16:54It does. Fiscialaneous. No, it's muscellaneous. Oh, that's really? Did you just think of... Or was it? No, but when I said it the first time I had just thought of it. Then I wrote it down. I thought I've never remembered it since then. But I'm writing it down again now. There's a lot of writing stuff down in this podcast now. Okay, cool. How's the inspection going, Anna? It's time writing a lot of stuff down in the years, while I need it. Okay, here's a question for you. Haley Thompson, long time listener here. I'm planning my first trip to the UK specifically to London. I often listen to older episodes of Fish while I'm working and I've been jotting down places to go that you've all mentioned as possible destinations in anticipation. Okay, anywhere else apart from weather spoons, it's not a weather spoon. It's just says... I'm planning to go to Dishroom. Oh, yeah. Nice. The weather spoons of the East. That caught me thinking. I love that marketing idea. Yeah.

17:59That got me thinking, if you could all pick a spot that you'd put on a fish tour of London or the UK, what would it be and why? So I thought I'd put you on the spot. I like those next to Clear Patchers Needles. Those... Is it the two lions? Spinxes. Spinxes, yeah. Where Dan said you could put your finger in the bum holes. Yeah. That was a good moment of fish. That was great. And actually, once you've finished there, because that's on the embankment of the river, and you should go to spend a lot of time near the river, go to the Basil Jet Memorial, which is by embankment tube, and it's just... It's sort of... It's just quite roby there, but it's just in a wall and it's Joseph Basil Jet who built the sewers, and it's on land that he reclaimed from the river. What's your pick, Anna? Oh, I would say go to the... Do you know what we did at episode on Thomas Hardy? Thomas Hardy's grave. So Thomas Hardy designed the graveyard in Kings Cross was it at the time, but then it all got moved. And now there's kind of a monument to it just behind Kings Cross, and it's this amazing kind of tree with all these old gravestones

19:01sticking out of this. It's spiraling around you. It's spiraling around you. Yeah, that's pretty cool. Yeah, that's really good. How is Corner of Westminster, Robbie? Of Westminster, Robbie. All that. Tower of London. I mean, that just places. Of course, because these are all... Yeah, that literally will be on your first page of Google. Palace. London Eye. Today's it's London Eye. If you can get out of the city stone hinges, a good day. Shrek's adventure, if you can't. I tell you why, if you're coming from North America, and you've got a bit of time, spare france is nice. London Zoo has a lot of animals from all over the world. You don't need to go anywhere once you've been there. Yeah. So there's a big friend. I mean, genuinely. So we live in a city of jewels. London, that's what I call it, because it's wonderful, you know? This is a bit called Bad Romance, because we've had romance ROE. Yeah, I can't. Yeah.

20:01Fish eggs. Yeah. This one's about Lady Gaga. This is the fact, right? Lady Gaga. Yeah. Alex Dean writes, as a long-time listener of the show, I've always hoped to one day work a fact from the podcast organically into real-life conversation. Unfortunately due to my terrible memory, I've never managed it until the other day. While on a date, we walked past a model train shop. Wow. It's a lovely, lovely day. As we stopped to look in the window. I suddenly remembered. Come back, come back. Darling, come back. We need to look at this window for a bit. I suddenly remembered a fact from the show that I was delighted to finally deploy naturally in everyday life. I turned and explained the coal. The coal used in model railway exhibitions is actually just small, crushed up pieces of coal. Zeta, I married her. She replied that that was one of the dullest things

21:06she had ever heard. I don't know what to say, Alex. It's how you tell them. If she could get in touch with me, I think we might get along pretty well. Isn't that wonderful? That's just lovely. Gratitude to Alex. Good luck getting back on the app, son. She's out there. There we go. Logan writes, this is a thing that's sort of micro-clown. There's a little clown. I'm listening to the drop of the line, the episode in which people have written in about having a difficult time telling Dan and Andy's voices apart. I'm sure the inbox is bulging with even more people contributing their thoughts on the matter. Sort of actually, a few people have written in saying, yeah, can't tell Dan and Andy apart. Logan says, I'm visually impaired in a way that affects central visual acuity. So Logan relies on voice and stature to identify anyone. Logan works as a 9-1-1 dispatcher, so 9-9-9 for British listeners. I've got very good at distinguishing voices. I work with dozens of units throughout the week and

22:10I can identify most of them by voice having never seen them. I've listened to this podcast almost every day since 2019 and I still can't tell Dan and Andy's voices apart. Isn't that weird? Wow. They don't even sound the same and I can tell that it's two different people talking, but I can't for the life of me identify who is speaking. What? I know. That sort of implies they sound different to you, but what they're saying is sort of so non-memorable that you haven't managed to peg it to their name or memorable in the same way. Yeah. They just say the same sort of stuff all the time. Yeah, exactly. How about the slum? Isn't it, Andy? Well, on someone. On someone, yeah. I mean, no one has a problem identifying your voice, James. Yeah, that's so interesting. They do mistake you and I when they see pictures of us. Yep. And whose voices? Who's? That's true. And by think my actual voice, they would know it was James, but they might not know what I look like. Wow. This is Andy speaking now. Oh, that's not here. Yeah. That's why he's not. It's the easiest today, Logan. Yeah, yeah. Right. Come on. Get yourself

23:13off the hook. Dave Wang writes, lifelong bilingual and that's not just a boast because also fish listeners since day one, Dan's Chinese name should be Shribo, which literally sounds like Shribo and means handsome uncle. Ah, not uncle egg. Because Dan said his Chinese name was Uncle Egg and then Dan texted me separately saying, Oh, man, I misspoke on fish. So apologies if you get lots of emails. We've had one. I said my Chinese name is Uncle Egg, which it is, but I didn't realize I just said my surname bit. So it's she at Boa Dan in Chinese. Oh, yeah. Dan does mean egg because Dan Dan meets testicles. Yeah. Yeah. Full name is thanks. She Uncle Boa Egg Dan. Sorry if the inbox gets flooded. Dan flattering yourself. A number of people who listen to what you're saying. Did you know that more than half the people on this earth are fluent in at least two languages? Oh, that's amazing. That's good isn't it? It's so cool. Western might be

24:16belong great on that, but that's the world doing well. Yeah. Well, a lot of Western might people who don't have English as a first language are great. They are also very good. Yeah. Yeah. Just English speaking people out there. Yeah. Moa's actor from India here. I was listening to episode three five one. No such thing as pop charts for bagpipers in which you mentioned anyone? Anyone? Do you remember the world's longest cake? Oh, yeah. I do remember that. Was it in Romania? Or was that the world's longest sausage? Carola, South India. Oh, Carola, okay. The record was broken in Carola. I happened to have moved to Carola for work. There is a bakery, a few hundred meters from my house, which participated in the event. Wow. The cake was 5.3 kilometers long, not 6.5 as you said. So we got the cake wrong by how did we do that? A kilometer. Because it's not like we looked at it and estimated the length. We will have got that information from Guinness, I guess, normally. I don't know. I don't know what. Maybe someone ate a

25:16kilometer of it before that. Come on. It's been good cake. Yeah, Moa's I don't think it's provided sources. And I haven't checked. So it'll have to be one of those mysteries. Yeah. We'll never know. Final clown bombs dropping and the whistling noise they make. I think I slightly screwed up the explanation of the Doppler effect. Doppler effect. Jonathan, Commander Royal Navy. Cool. What an unusual surname. It says if it's falling on you, you might hear the increasing note, but you won't be able to tell anyone about it. But if it's dropping on someone else, then the mile away, the pitch will drop down in the final stages, because it's sliding down the opposite side of a triangle to you. So this is the sound the sound that survivors hear is relevant. I'm going to paraphrase and be brief because we've had so many long emails about the Doppler effect. And I'll cheerfully just roll over and say, yeah, sorry. Wait, why don't someone was also I said pitch and frequency and I confused those two. And the whole thing was a cluster mistake. It was a real cluster mistake.

26:21Peter Drake, listening to your recent episode of having sperm and setty. Oh yeah. I wondered when you'd get to Moby Dick, a book famous for being comically obsessed with this fluid. Yeah. Andy, you got there first with the line Eat It Ishmael, but I'm afraid you misstepped. The harpooner was not Ishmael, but his bunk mate, Quiquewag. I am sure many people have pointed this out. Now on this occasion, I'm going to stick up for myself. Go on. I think if I had said, Eat It Quiquewag. I would have received black faces. And he said that in a theatre of 3,000 people. You might get one English teacher pissing themselves. It has made his life. He's thrilled. But genuinely, I could have said, I could have said Ahab, that would have been another valid joke because people know about Captain Ahab. But there were a team effort hunting that well. I think it's fine to say the most famous call me Ishmael. There are three words of the book. Just, yeah. So reject it.

27:22Oh, important to be right. I think we've done a whole section on Moby Dick once. So I would suggest to go back and find that because it was a good idea. Yeah, it was. Mike Giggler. Do you know what this is? It's where someone writes since was saying, I can't believe you didn't make a joke that you could have made on the episode. Wait, Mike Giggler. It's a reference to private. Yeah. Right. I thought it was just a name of a correspondent that we can't do. This week's Mike Giggler is Chris Locke from Farnham. I cannot believe that you discussed the usage of whale meat during World War Two rationing and forgot to mention the song Vera Lynn sung, specifically encouraging the population of the UK to eat more of it. You mean whale meat again. Regardless of the place or time. Yeah, very good. No, no, no, no, no, no. That's on Chris. You got us. That is a good one actually.

28:23Yeah, quite often these are not very good. No, that's much better than you. That's much better than the usual. I can't believe you. That's lovely. I'm going to steal that. Vindancation. We've had a vindancation. Oh, this is where we vindicate something that done set us right. I can tell and I can tell how long you brainstormed that part. We had so many emails about this. Tim Groves is a great example of this. I'm just going to do his email. I'm going to take a punt here on being one of a legion of listeners. Correct. Writing in about this. I have just been listening to the episode of Little Fish from the 25th of May while on a train to London to try a vegan fish taco. Brackets. Not important. Clothes brackets. And I was shocked to hear Andy and Anna ridicule Dan for his vaguely remembered story about a man swallowing a Faberier egg. I also remembered this story and a light search yielded the following. BBC News. Police recovered $19,000 Faberier egg swallowed by New Zealand man. Okay. It was a an octopus-y themed egg. James Bond for... I know James Bond film.

29:26Yeah, that was a it was a plant appendent I think and it was laid about a week after he swallowed it. Okay, so it wasn't a false. I think the problem was we didn't mention that it was appendent and actual Faberier eggs. I mean he worked this New Zealander would literally look like a Kiwi. Yeah, I mean the enormous egg inside him. But Dan was right. Someone had swallowed a Faberier thing and it was... An octopus-y themed Faberier. Yeah, I mean I think maybe they've branched out from the original taste where it's all for royalty. All right. I think I kind of assumed that it probably was based in fact because it would be an amazing thing for Dan to have made up. He's feeling funny, I'll break that. Yeah, but no completely fair. Like I doubled down on my tees to him again. So I feel better probably done it. Did you mess the Chairman apologise? Although the inbox has been flooded by it. So actually I should do. But I do the email so it's fine. Why don't you... It's a camera. Why don't you apologise to him now? Oh my god, what?

30:27It's like a hostage video. This is like Johnny Depp when he smuggled with it. I could have blinks in the show that I need help. Dan, I'm really sorry. No, I'm sorry Dan. And I hope you listen to this. If anyone's been held hostage here, it's not you Andy. Okay. I'll choose this. I'll tell him we are. Dave Rool. Is this a segment or okay? Dave Rool says, I wanted to follow up and let you know how thrilled I am. This has become such a phenomenon in its own right. And how much joy it brings me to hear Dan and James Squirm whenever one of these comes up unexpectedly. Dave Rool sent the first ever thing that sounds like it's named for one obvious reason, but it's actually named after a person with an amusingly apt name. Okay, good. What? And what was his one? This was October 2025. He sent a list of things unexpectedly named after people, including also, I mean, some classics, Main Street in San Francisco named for Charles

31:28Maine, Snowflake, Arizona, Taco Bell named after Glen Bell. Okay. We've had seven more pages of this stuff since the last drop. So like, I don't know what to do. It's what the people want. It's just what people want. This needs to be a whole new podcast that we don't get. You almost contractually applies yourself into something that. Yeah. Turn that full stop into a comment pretty fast. Yeah. Dan Painter, Penny's game about flipping a coin, heads or tails, right? Created by Walter Penny. Wow. Yeah. Very good. Daniel Power. There's a suburb of Sydney called Wallstonecraft, right? And I knew Mary Wallstonecraft was an important feminist and I joked, imagine if it was just named after some dude instead of her. Well, it turns out that Wallstonecraft, the Sydney suburb, was named not after the early feminist and important historical figure, Mary Wallstonecraft. It's named after a man, Edward Wallstonecraft, who's really only known for moving to Australia to escape the notoriety of his Aunt Mary.

32:29That's so good. Really. Yeah. I think he was a big deal in his own right. But yeah. I haven't seen you. Yeah. Anyway, I can sense the patience running thin here. So I'm just going to keep sorting them away for the book. And when I'm on every till in every bookshop across the world. That Penny one is absolutely cracking. I know. This is this is really good. This should be a book. I don't encourage him for fuck's sake. It should be a book. It should be... We can spend six months writing it. Six months. Are we doing it a bridge version? How dare you? This is a 10 year project. The book is called a thousand and one things that are named. Have you not have you not heard that? What's the book called a thousand and one thing? Well, this is an excellent point. It's something. There's the main header. And then the subtitle is a thousand and one... The book of a thousand and one things. Yeah. I'm still working on it. That you think were named for a very obvious reason, but were in fact named after a person with an amusingly apt name.

33:32I think that's very catchy. Yeah. It's been proposed by Thomas Groves Bond that this be called the Hunter Index. Not named after the Hunter. These names put after Andrew Hunter Murray. Lovely. Yeah. All right. Look. We'll do more of these next time. Thank you so much for everyone who said that. I'm sorry we didn't get all of them. The final closer goes to anonymous L, who says, I believe that I speak for myself when I say... It's funny. That I actually quite enjoy the Inca here at Ramblings and the way Andrew Hunter Murray runs the drop in civilized show, especially the section naming section and the book of things that are named and all that. There's already been over 50 minutes of discussion on the actual facts on the podcast, so not too sure why the others want to do more. Okay. A little trade secret. They want to do less. We over record every time. I keep saying we'll be out with it an hour and we never are. And not a missell. Yeah. I think they didn't want their name in.

34:34No. Why would you with such a penis? No. In the Roberts we cut out of this show. You know, you'll see. Yeah. Yeah. We're wrapping up. We're done. How's the inspection going on? I would say special measures coming up to you. Thank you for listening and watching. If you'd like to send in your story, and your romance good or bad or your what else we've done. I've got it. Let's think in the comments about the show that we've done. Spicy meat. Your riddle round about. Your secret squid. It doesn't have to fall into one of these like weirdly crowbar categories. Seven squabbles. No, it could just be a common squabbles. Send your Seven squabbles and then the music kicks in and out we go. And it's podcasted at qi.com. Okay, thanks everybody. Bye.
