So Many Underpants! (Ep. 110)

0:00 Rach, how's your husband over the Bills laws? I Bills fans are such Oh my God. You should have been that a whole day. He was telling us a week ahead of time on Sunday, I am going to be watching the Bills game. You guys are not doing it or whatever. So we're like, OK, whatever. So we're all home Sunday and and the kids are like singing. Me and Julia are sitting beside Jeremy on the couch, blaring reels and watching them together. You're so mean. But I didn't realize we were doing that and the Bills were losing. And he's like, you know what, All I wanted to do today was watch the Bills game and you 3.

0:45 And with that, let's get started. That's so happy. I have a beer. Who else has 1 today? I don't necessarily. Rodenberg, OH, you find Moosehead. Well, it's from the Beer Store. Oh, OK. You know, tax free. Tax free still all right? Good enough to stock up soon because it's about to be over, Yeah. Well, you wanted to buy your boats. You knew it was kind of Oh no, that was. I know well I can use my $200.00 on. That in mind this is due to underwhelming demand the podcast that's like having an early provincial election yeah a waste of time and money even though we're free I still think we're a waste of money so technically it all it all kind of I. Don't think it's a waste of money. It's.

1:29 Kind of a waste of money. Anyway, we're Dave, Rachel and Foreman and coming up. Coming up, Rachel has some fun facts. I do can't wait. Foreman and Dave will do something that we could not do on the radio. That's right. Something we could never, never have done this on the radio. We're gonna do that, but first. It's even borderline you to do on this podcast. It really is OK. And you may want to eat first, I know. The general topic, I don't know what you're gonna bring up. That's right. Just, you know, if you thought you were done with best of 2024 lists, not. Not yet, not. Yet. Oh my God. OK. Alright, but first, I find this fascinating and I don't know why, but according to a survey, nearly half of all people carry backup underwear with them. Underpants.

2:22 Underpants. That's right, nearly half of all people carry backup underpants. The preferred terminology of said podcast? That's right. In case they have an accident or because they plan to change clothes, like if they've gone to the gym or something. Nearly half. I've never carried a backup pair of underwear with me anywhere, and I don't know that I've ever needed it. Well if I've gone to the gym I have, but that's it. Like I don't keep a spare pair. Why do you need a backup when you go to the gym? Well, if I'm saying go to the gym. And then? Well, I'm wearing them, but they're sweaty, right? So you shower and then you might if I'm going somewhere else. If I'm just going home, then I'll just go home and shower. Okay, But if I have to shower at the gym? You don't generally have you ever carried at any point in your life an extra pair of underwear? No, because the whole I have a whole other change of clothes and there's underwear with them.

3:22 I feel like there's a different topic because yeah, if you're going to change, then you're going to, you have to completely change. Exactly. But it doesn't mean that I have two pairs in that change of clothes to have an extra. No, I've never just had underpants. No, no, just in case. Well, if I'm packing like to go away like we're going away soon, I always pack. I pack extra under. I don't know why I pack so much underwear when I go on vacation. Rachel. What? Underpants. Underpants. Sorry I pack so many underpants when I am going on vacation. Sounds so much better it does. It's better than panties, which I fucking hate. I hate it when people call them. I think it's gross. Panties is up there with Moist.

4:05 Oh my God, you, David. Just anyway, so my underpants. Yeah, I pack so many when I'm going away. Why? It's like, I don't know why. I don't know why I do it. It's like I'm planning to shit myself every day. You never know what the bug will bring. You know the Buffalo over as if it's like a regular occurrence. Yeah. But I don't know why, like even Kendalls packing now to go we're going to Mexico soon and she's like, mom, how many pairs of underwear do I need? And I was like, and I said 9 because I'm like just pack a couple extra just in case, right? Like we're there for a week. If you're a kid, I can understand that.

4:45 Poop herself. Either she does, and neither do I, but frankly. But that but. Again, so many as if I do. I get that, but a full grown adult saying yeah 9 or 10 would be good for yeah. How long are we going? 10 days. A week? No. Seven days. Like yeah, 7:00 or bring them all. Take your whole drawer. Dump it in the egg, yeah. Wait a minute. If you were going away for over 7 days, yeah. Do you have enough underpants in your drawer right now to cover that? Just I would say like it's the good ones or the bad ones because there's a hierarchy.

5:27 I think I could. I think I could cover maybe the new ones. That you got at Christmas or the holy ones? Obviously, yeah. Yeah, maybe 10 days. I could get Foreman right now if I like, if I maybe 10 days. But three out of those 10 days would be threadbare. Yeah, the sucky ones. Yes, so so how? Do you guys not have like? How many I? Have like 100 pairs of underwear. Underpants. Pants. Underpants. Panties how? No. And why David? I don't know, I just buy underwear. Do yours not get holes in them 'cause that's what happens to ours? Times but not. They get woolly and tattered. We keep wearing them if. You have 100 foreman.

6:07 I mean if you have 100 underpants. I wouldn't. I don't know where you put them, do you? Do you hang them in? Your walk in underpant clothes. Closet I own like a drawer and I put them all I just stuff them in there you know so I'm. Taking, taking double the amount to to Mexico or whatever is nothing. That's nothing, Dean. I don't even know why you count. Just like grab a fistful and Chuck. Them just throw. Them in I need to make sure I have some right? I need to make sure I have enough for that, like minimum. But of all things and all trips and reasons to require more underpants, yes, that is at the bottom of the list.

6:47 Because when you go away down South, like to Mexico like you are, I might bring 7 pairs for seven days and end up wearing 3 because you're wearing a bathing suit all the time. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, constantly. I do take too many clothes when I'm done because I'm usually in my bathing suits or cover ups or whatever and then like a dress for dinner, right. So I'm not really wearing shorts and AT shirt, no, unless it's for breakfast. But yeah, underwear I pack like I'm going to poop every day in my pants. So you have double the amount of underwear and how often you used more than 7 underpants. Probably never, I don't think. I just like to have extra, right? It's better to have it's, it's like when you throw a party, you want to have more, too much food. Not not enough, right?

7:37 You want to have more rather than less. But this? Is there a party in your underpants? Yeah, it's a battery, Yeah. But this, this goes back to how, how, how full your freezer is. It's because you're afraid to run out of food. I think you're afraid to run out of under. I am. I don't want to be without underwear. No. Yeah, that's. Uncomfortable. No one does. Right underpants. I, I don't, I can't, I don't think you can equivocally say no one, which I think most people don't Well, but. Listen if you can. If you do go without, you have a lot more room in your suitcase. You know what I do with that extra room? What? I just bring too many socks. Why are you making socks I will never wear? Because I'm barefoot the whole time there. Are sandals you're wearing sandals? But I've got 10 pairs in case.

8:28 That's next episode. This is due to underwhelming Demand, the podcast that saw its shadow. So, you know, six more weeks of lousy podcasts. Sorry or more. Can't. Can't. Extra long can't do episodes. I realized that, by the way, for the last several weeks we've been talking about Oh Chilly Charlie is going to make his prediction at the Southgate Center in Woodstock.

9:11 Chilly Charlie. It's a guy. It's a guy in a in a suit. It's not even a Groundhog. No, it's no Beaver. Either we had a. Beaver. At least we had you dressed as a Beaver. That's right. That's how you do. It because we couldn't get a. Groundhog. You get a. For a Groundhog costume and they're like we. Have a Beaver. We we dressed you as a Beaver. Yeah, and that is as Canadian as you can get. After Tim Horton's. Yes, at the Tim Horton's, yeah. That's just Canadians. OK, so we're about to do a little thing here. Foreman and I are jointly going to do this thing. This is something Foreman sent me. Foreman sends me a lot of headlines. Foreman sends me funny things a lot. We, Foreman and I have a sorry Rachel, a separate message, but he's sending me headlines.

10:00 It's just headlines and. It's mostly headlines, but occasionally he'll send me something else. And he sent me something and I went, well, this is funny, but I know I can't. And then I went, wait a minute. It's wait just one second. I used to be able to go. I used to say, well it's very funny and thank you for sending it, but I can't do it on the radio. Yes, which I would know. Yes, and you would know that he's. Our own amusement. I'm sure he just sent this for my own amusement. But then it occurred to me. Wait a minute, I'm not on the radio anymore. I have a podcast.

10:40 A podcast that is going to give you 6 more lousy ones because of the shadow. And I can do whatever the hell I want. And I can do whatever the hell I want. So. So I'm going to give you what Foreman gave me, and then Foreman's going to counter that with the exact opposite, sort of. Maybe. The Yang and the Yang, Does that make sense? Yes, it's because each year, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission compiles data from the nation's. Emergency rooms. To share with you. This list of things medical professionals had to pull out of the penises of patients. What?

11:24 Oh my God, you David, last year, 2024. Sometimes you will see the list at the end of the year or whatever of things left in an Uber and, and you know, cell phones, underpants, soil, usually a pair, you know. That's my bad guys. Yeah, Gentures. 12 Extra. Gentures and we all how? Oh. Isn't that funny? No, no, no. Are you ready? Do you have music for this? Would you like some medical professional penis bullying? Yes. Penis bullying music please. How uncomfortable this is to listen to, I get it. An Airpod? Just one. Far too big. That's not how.

12:08 You're not getting 2 up there. You barely get one. I could think it's. Not going to be stereo if you do that I. Don't have one, but I don't think much goes up there. A pin cap. Oh. A coffee stirrer. Oh. A screw. Oh my God, this isn't comfortable. A paper clip. Oh my, I'm starting to regret doing this. Yes, this. Is very painful. The handle. Of a plastic spoon. I'll go through it fast. The handle of a plastic spoon, a plastic fork. Oh my God. Glue. Glue. That's a very bad idea.

12:48 That's. Really a bad idea? A rolled up magazine page. Oh my, the. Ring from a Powerade bottle A Domino. Oh, a full domino. What the actual fuck? A phone charging cable. And lastly, things medical professionals pulled out of penises last year. Oh. My God. A thermometer. Oh. Actually, that's probably the least. That makes the most sense out of all of them. That was. Designed to glide in supposed. To go in your butt. Yeah. Well, would you like to hear things things pulled out of other orifices? Other.

13:29 Regions. That a woman might have. Oh God. A plastic triceratops. Oh, come. On a dinosaur toy. A toy fire truck. Oh. A spork. A sport. That would hurt. A bar of some toy fire truck wouldn't. Hurt. That would. Yeah, I would. I think it would hurt. Too deodorant. No, you don't need. Deodorant. A perfume bottle. Oh my God. A pencil. No, that shouldn't be. There. How about a pencil? But sideways, no. Oh my. God, a curling iron. A dry erase marker.

14:12 No. No, a bag of soil. What keys? A what? Keys. Keys, a candle, a climbing peg. What's a? Finger puppet. A finger puppet. OK, well, I and. Finally. I know how that got there. And finally, and I quote was roughhousing with her husband, who lifted her up and accidentally dropped her on a hot dog cooker. No, we didn't. That's not acting on a hot dog. Oh my God. Never mind. Straight up ready to.

14:54 I think we're done. Be available, yeah. The Triceratops. This is due to underwhelming demand. We are Dave, Rachel and Forum, and this is the podcast that's, you know, like the Super Bowl because sometimes the ads are better than the podcast slash game, you know? Sure, like our sponsors.

15:52 Have a whole lot of them today, so nothing to know. But if you would like to sponsor us, you can, you can go to underwhelming.ca because you're probably your contents better than ours, right? underwhelming.ca. We've got sponsorship info on there. You can e-mail us Dave, rachelforeman@gmail.com anytime. We've got pricing starting at $75.00 an episode. And if you can't do that, buy us a coffee. Absolutely. Underwhelming.ca also, everything's there. That's why we created a website everybody, so it's all in one spot. And thank you to John and Jan, who did just buy us a coffee. Yeah. Well, thank. You, John and Jan. Thank. You very much I might know. I think you might know them too, yeah. He also left a Valentine for Jan in his purchase of a coffee. OK, read it now.

16:43 Really. Save it for next week for him and save it. How about next week? For next week. Yeah, cuz this is not the Valentine's episode. Let's. Do it. Yes, that's. True, yeah. OK, something to look forward. To OK, well, we'll. Send time for you shout outs, yes? OK. But noted, John. Thank you. Thank you very much. All right, here's what you can note Rachel's fun facts. Hey. I really do think those are fun facts. Rachel. Rachel. OK, here we go. I don't know if you've heard of this word before. A herkel durkel. A herkel durkel. That's a Scottish word, and it means to lie in bed long after it's time to be up and about.

17:24 Just on A herkel durkel here, a little longer. Herkel Durkel in my bed. Well, I enjoy doing that, but I will never call it that. No, I don't think I'll ever call it that either. All right, OK. It sounds like like a Herkel Durkel should be a little bit more exciting than just lying in your bed. Maybe you're Herkel Durkel if you. Have a herkel here in my bed. Just a lie. If you have someone to herkel durkel with, now you've got. Something sure, I guess. So I've got this triceratops. Oh my God, stop it. My first thought was those people didn't have someone. People with sensitive noses can actually smell when it's about to rain.

18:07 Atmospheric chemicals begin to react with one another, creating ozone, which has a sweet and pungent smell. So some people can does that. Happen to you? I don't know that it's sweet and. You can smell, you think it smells like it's going to rain. I can tell when it's rained, but that's not. Isn't that? Though, Well, that's right. I can. Usually. It's rained. It smells like rain, right? Everybody knows what? That, yeah. But even if after it's dry, I can tell that it did. Like if you get up in the morning and it's like if I go as I go. Oh yeah. But sometimes I believe that I can. Yeah. This is smelling it ahead of time before it I. Wouldn't say that I could tell that it's like out to rain. No, but I can.

18:51 I have a maybe I'm just because that's why you're not like a good rainfall smelled like worms. Yes, I agree. It sure can, yeah. So maybe. I'm confusing. That's a different fun fact. The after rainfall. Smells like rain. Fun fact. Like worms? Yeah. Yeah. OK. Did you know that dogs sneeze to tell each other that they're friendly? So when they're playing rough, it doesn't turn into a fight? It's also known as a calming signal. I don't know if I really believe that because Roxy sneezes a lot and she hates Jeremy. You said these are always factual. You did say you. Preface this, I think my dogs may be just the exception to every single rule, but she just goes, you know? She does that a lot.

19:39 Is that a sneeze or is that a? Snort. Well, it's kind of a huff Sneeze. A huff. It's a bit of a huff, I guess. She huffs that up. She huffs. Adam for sure. I know I've seen dogs sneeze, but I don't. I don't know that I've ever seen dogs sneeze around one another. Not that I'm aware. No, and usually it's when they get slobber everywhere. OK, this one is definitely true for me. For people with math anxiety, math problems trigger a similar brain response as physical pain. Yeah, that's really checking off the fun box. Visit OK. Sorry. OK, how about this one then?

20:21 Did you know that your lips touch when you say the word separate, but they don't touch when you say the word together? I know you. I know you're all trying that now, not. Even a fun fact. That's some doofus going, you know, can you do this and stomp your foot at the? Same true. Come on. It's like if I say to you, here's what my kids always say to me, I want you guys to try this now. Try and say Coca-Cola without your lips touching. Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola. Now say it normally. Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola. I don't. They don't. Your lips don't touch anyway. That's what my kids do to me. They did.

21:02 We fell for it. God, I feel like an idiot. Anyway, I know you're all trying it now, OK? Speaking of smart people like me, Albert Einstein was offered the presidency of Israel in 1952, but he politely declined, stating that he lacked the natural aptitude and experience to deal with people. OK. Some other some other presidents maybe should have declined also. How the the world would have been so different, Teddy. Had he been the president, right? That's really you. Didn't like that one. That's fascinating, isn't it? No, I'm sure some fact it's certainly not fun. It's not even.

21:44 It's the opposite of fun. Well, how would this one then? It's another one. Fun. If we are living in a world where he did take the job to look back and imagine. Imagine he didn't. All right, also about presidents, I guess a kleptocrat, that's a noun. That's a word that I hadn't heard of before. Kleptocrat, that means a ruler who uses political power to enrich themselves at a country's expense. Just thought maybe that just throw that one in there. Lately, that sounds familiar. Yeah, might be. I feel like there's a reason you included that, but let's move. All right. Last one, maybe this one you'll like, I don't know.

22:25 An estimated .7% of the world's population is drunk at any given moment. What's it right now? That's it, That's all. .7. What is wrong? That's funny, guys. It's only funny if I can see what they're doing. OK, fine, I'm going to have my beer over here then. .8%. Was there 7 billion people in the world? I don't know, I. Don't know is there now there was 6. So did you do the math? For him, yeah, 490 million people are drunk. Drunk at any given, oh, sorry, 49 million people. That's not very.

23:09 Many, I don't think. What's like 49? How many do? We have in Canada not that many. Oh, this picture. All of Canada drunk all the time. All of Canada drunk all the time. The this is due to underwhelming demand. It's a podcast. It's Dave, Rachel and Foreman. And be sure to check out our website, underwhelming.ca. Read Rachel's blog on playing hockey. It's very, very well written.

23:56 It's really good. Rachel. I like it. Rachel, give us an update, maybe on a future podcast on how the hockey thing is going. Yeah, we had a week or two, we had a week off and then we have a kind of a random schedule. So I'll have an update for you next episode, so. When is the next practice that we won't be attending but we just would like to know a specific date and time and place? Well, the next. One I will be at is, I think, Valentine's Day. I can't think of a better place to be, Dave. I don't know about you. I'd. Like to go that. Might be your lovers you want it to be and join me and arena. Foreman and I are going on a on a road date. I'm not sure if Ashley and Jana will be thrilled or just I'm glad. You're gone.

24:40 I don't think they'll care. No, I'm not sure they really. Don't. I don't think they'll care, No. OK, Anyway, if you would like to sponsor this fine podcast as we said before. Yes underwhelming.ca or buy me a coffee dot com slash. Underwhelming coffees are 5 bucks each so OK. Yeah, you can always leave us a voicemail at underwhelming.ca as well. Yeah, and this is the point in the in the podcast where we check to see who's written to us. So what have we got? Well, Stephanie would like to comment about Rachel's hockey. OK OK saying pizza is legit. What does that mean? Wash. It was a pizza. Stop. Stop. Well, you're wrong. Wrong Stephanie, but she says. That's the thing.

25:21 When my husband was attempting to teach me how to ski, pizza was how I got down the hill. Yeah, it's snow plowing. What is wrong with you guys? No. It's not. Yeah, pizza. I wasn't taught pizza. I was taught to snow plow. It's a. Snow plow triangle, Yeah, but. It's a snow plow. I'm making on the ice. I'm making snow, but I'm not plowing it on the ice. Somebody ate Kinsley also messaged us and said Rachel is right, Pizza stop is used for the littles in skiing and skating that way. That is wrong. Wrong. She's. Not wrong and someone else told me that. Little the kids a little well. I'm a newbie so I might as well be, yeah. OK, Yeah.

26:02 Also, Erica Vincent, our realtor friend also says that her kids learn pizza stop in their Cam skate lessons. Just saying guys. It's snow plowing. Pizza, pizza, pizza. Wrong. OK, I have a message from Lindsay DeVos. DeVos, I can't remember. I'm sorry. Still haven't nailed that down, Lindsay. Please correct us. Yeah, Tell if it's a DeVos or DeVos. Lindsay is somebody who listened to Foreman out in Halifax. So we're super happy to have all of our Maritime listeners with us. Thank you. She says hi guys, happy new year. I just finished listening to episode 109. Good for you Rachel for trying hockey. Keep up the hard work. Happy birthday, Dave. Oh, thank you.

26:43 January 21st Oh, and for you Foreman, a couple things. If you go to your Costco, If you go to Costco, but you will know whether they have your moose heads or not. But you're not going to go to Costco, No, but guess what? I know where you could get Moose Heads beer all the time if you move back to Halifax and you'd have it whenever you want. I know because there's a drive through Moose Head store in Dartmouth that I would frequent coming home from the radio station in Dartmouth, past the Moose Head store and then on across the bridge over to Timberly. I learned how to say dirt, dirt, dirt. I didn't know. There was a drive through Moosehead store. That's interesting. When my buddies came to visit a couple times, actually Aaron and Ian, we had to Aaron had to go to the Moosehead store because not only is it full of all their types of drinks that you can't get here, but also it's the merchandise, it's the clothing, it's the hats, it's the beer kegs, it's the anything and everything Mooset that he. That's cool.

27:45 Mooset, there we go. That's neat, all right, Jen said. This was Keenan and Keenan Handyman Services. If you're looking for handyman's, Johnny's your guy. They're licensed, they're insured, they do all kinds of stuff. Anything. Anything ever. And Jen is the the the she cracks the whip so she says. Thank you so much for a fabulous episode. I also wanted to let Dave know if he does need handy stuff done around the house, having Johnny move in is not the way to accomplish that. Ask me how I know. We appreciate you. Keep at it because your podcasts are the highlight of my week. Thank you. Jen, Dad, I like. That, that's very funny all.

28:31 Right. Please check for your shadow. I don't see a thing from my front or my back either. Spring will be early, so say aye the BX Beaver. Very good Beaver. Congratulations. That's awesome. Spring is coming early according to the BX 93 Beaver. I cannot wait.
