Because it's Friday, you ain't got no job, and you ain't got shit to do. You're just in time for the after party that is Fuck It Friday, starring Drew and Ian. Welcome to Fuck It Friday. I don't know what episode this is, but hey, we're going to do an episode where Drew and I aren't involved in a threesome. How's that sound? Tom and Ellen, you can listen to this one. Yeah, this is kind of crazy. This is a great Effort Friday. It was kind of funny how all the emails and response we got from how we met. And that is a true story, by the way. Yeah, every part of that was true to the best of our recollection. I'm sorry if you were aroused. I'm sorry if you wanted pictures. I'm sorry if you wanted names and phone numbers and dates. I can't help you. We did. We got asked for pictures. We got asked for phone numbers of girls that we don't talk to anymore. We got asked. Yeah. My ex-wife and his ex-fiance. I'm sure there's a lawsuit somewhere brewing. That's all right. That might have been one of our best episodes of anything ever. I listened to it, and even I was cringing. Oh, it was. Drew and I texted each other, what have we done? It was good. I got a good laugh out of all that. And if you guys haven't heard, listen to our last Valentine's Day special, Fuck It Friday. Oh, my God. And you know what the funny thing was? At the end of the day, what was really, really funny was Drew and I didn't even make that connection to Valentine's Day. No, we just told the story. Yeah, we just wanted to tell the story. And I was like, you know, we're releasing this on Valentine's Day. It's almost perfect. Well, that's why, because we record on Monday, so it was several days before Valentine's Day. Didn't even occur. Yeah, well, this is the after party as in, you know, Martin's intro. You know, this is the after party. This is the after party. This is before we're already fucked up. Speaking of Martin, listener number 15, I don't know if you guys noticed, but our intro was a little different on Wednesday. That was because Christopher Franchi came in and said, bro, you got to play this instead. And he didn't have any issue with the intro per se. he just had issue with the splicing in of the song yeah and how it was me how it didn't how it didn't line up he said it just bothered him it bothered it wasn't it wasn't satisfying for mr Christopher Franchi oh Christopher Franchi i hope you were satisfied this wednesday and uh that's what it was martin we love you don't worry so i'll use all your shit don't worry yeah yeah it was it was you you wrote it martin yeah you just used the same script yeah it's just it is it was the We love editing. I got a man crush on Franchi. I'm not afraid. We have a community show. People send us stuff all the time, actually, and sometimes we use it and sometimes we don't. 99.9% we're using it because we don't want to talk that much. Well, that, and we really don't get that much stuff. Yeah, we don't really. No, we get a lot. No, we get stuff. We do get a lot. We get stuff. We get a lot. So, fucking Friday. Here we are. New episode. Did you hear, Drew? Oh, boy. We're going to go into the news bag here. I don't even know what we're talking about. Did you hear about that flat earther who shot up in a rocket? No. His name is Mad Mike. He is a flat earther who believes that the earth is flat, believe it or not. And he built his own steam-powered rocket to launch himself. up far enough to prove to the world that the Earth is flat. So what? He was going to take a picture with his phone and say, look. See, he was probably... What was his plan? You know what his plan was? His plan was to get up there and go like, oh shit, it's round. And then come down and go, yep, it's flat. I'm totally right. I don't know. I don't know what his plan was. It's weird. But here's what happened. So the steam rocket was designed to go 5,000 feet up in the air. He hit half of that. 2,500 feet? That's impressive. Very impressive. His rocket had a parachute for safe landing. Well, as soon as he launched, that fucking parachute just, like, disintegrated. Hey, guys, it's Ian in Post. uh we went on and watched the video and and you know what i just a man died so i thought it best to just kind of scrap that part of our commentary we were drunk and not that we were making fun of but the whole thing was so ridiculous and over the top to build a steam rocket and then unfortunately to have the parachutes fail so quickly and to have him crash to his death i mean it was just it's very tragic and for his family and everything so i got rid of all that um and here we go we'll just skip forward to where we start talking about flat earth thanks guys what do you think about the flat earth theory i know it's bonkers but what did you what do you what are your thoughts it is so funny that you mentioned this today because i really didn't know we were going to talk about this. My wife and I were watching that show, the new show on Amazon, Hunters, the Nazi Hunters. It's just called Hunters, though, but it's Al Pacino. It takes place in the late 70s, early 80s, when they found all these Nazis in America and this group of mostly Jewish people and some other people are hunting. Another Nazi show. Here we go. They're hunting. It's loosely based on a true story. There are some recounts, but it's fiction. But anyways, there was a scene in the first episode where, spoiler alert, spoiler alert, this is just the first episode, so if you don't want to listen, three, two, one. Okay. Al Pacino's talking to the main character, the kid, about how he was in a concentration camp and he saw these horrors. There was these guards that would play human chess. Okay. With these camp people. Yeah. And they would kill each other. Yeah. They were made to kill each other as human chess pieces. Yeah. So, you know, that's like gruesome, right? Really gruesome. And they actually had the scene. They showed the scene of this happening, which was like, it was one of the most bizarre things I've ever watched on TV. It's terrible. But anyways, so then today my wife and I were recanting about that episode because the Auschwitz memorial people had, they took great offense to it saying that never happened and i was like well it's fiction so you know they can make up whatever they want right but anyways they took offense to that just that particular scene anyways but then i said we started talking about holocaust deniers and how people can still you know with all this evidence you know believe that the holocaust never happened yeah and then i just kind of related it to why are these the same people that are like flat earthers right and she goes no they're different groups of people but i was like but they have the same sort of mindset like hey you know this thing has been proven time and time again so are these people just trying to stir the pot or do they really really believe it I think that that was I know it was long winded, but that's no, I think no, it's very no, it's very that's very astute observation, Drew, because they they're they're the same. It's the same type of science, right? The pseudoscience. It's it's here. Here's how I break it down. And it works for those Holocaust guys that don't think it works. The deniers. They deny it. Right. So it's you. Science generally is you have a theory, and then you have to do a bunch of experiments to prove it. And the multiple experiments have to prove your theory. Otherwise, it'll always be a theory. Yes. You can have one experiment that goes your way, but can it be replicated, right? That's science. You've got to replicate it. Yep. You've got to be able to publish a paper, and somebody in California, Japan, China, UK, they can do the same thing based on your steps, right? And that is a proven scientific fact now that we can do it. But with flat earthers and Holocaust deniers, what they do is the opposite. they do test after test after test to find that one piece of evidence that says this says it did happen yeah yeah and they keep going until they find that one piece like it's the complete opposite of what science actually is it's very very interesting it is crazy i remember reading something in the news about flat earther uh he a group of them came together and they spent, oh, fuck, I'm going to throw a number out there. I don't know what the total number was. But let's just say it was $100,000 to get this geosynchronous object in a box that was supposed to, like, it was like an anti-gravity box or something crazy. Geosynchronous? Yeah. So it was basically, it was supposed to measure the Earth's rotation, right? but it was also in a box where like the magnetic poles wouldn't like so at the end of the day what they were trying to prove was the earth is tilted at 15 degrees or something right that's what we say but flat earthers say no it's flat it there's no tilt to the flatness of the earth it's 100 flat that's why we stand on it if it was tilted 15 degrees we would all kind of fall right or we'd be tilted to the you know to the right or whatever anyway you have 15 degrees isn't that much yeah but it was it's enough it's enough though where where they they wanted to disprove the whole that the earth is tilted and spinning so i want to say it's 15 maybe it's 25 i don't know it's 15 i think but regardless at the end of the day they spent all this money right they do this experiment that in theory should have worked perfectly right if it was a flat earth they open up the box it should have read zero right yep um but if it was if the earth was tilted you know it would have read 15 so they were like what were they using this geo yeah it was some sort of it's like a scientific device right it was supposed to be so they believe in that science it was the science of the earth well here's the thing they believe in science right but it's misguided but actually that that makes logical sense they're like hey i'm looking at this thing and it doesn't say 15 degrees well that was kind of what they did is yeah they're like okay here it goes that's that's they spent a ton of money on it they got all the shit together and someone out there's like dude you're an idiot it's a it's a orbital sink sinkature you know i don't know whatever it's called sure fuck off look it up on google i've been drinking but they open it up and sure as shit it said 15 degrees and they're like well it's just off oh really oh that's that the earth was round so this device that's made to measure that yeah so and if you turned it then it changed it's yeah whatever okay yeah so like the it was there was a flat earth documentary on netflix that i saw so i think that was part of it so do you think do you think there's a higher percent of flat earthers in Scientology? Oh, wow. That's a deep question. You guys didn't think you'd be thinking here on fucking Friday today, did you? I just talked my head because I've been watching that Scientology show. I don't know how they correlate with each other. Yeah, but once again, just kind of like, I believe these things. I know, it's a stretch, but I'm just curious. Yeah, no, I don't know. I don't know. The documentary on Netflix, and I forgot the name of it, but it was about the Flat Earth Society. And I will say this. Like, the guy who started it, I have a feeling it was a joke. Oh, really? He started it. Sure. And then it grew such a following that now he has to pretend like he's the biggest, like, supporter of it. Ah, and you're saying, like, he knows it's not true. It's his full-time job now because there's a million people or whatever on his site. And he's making money on it. And he's making money. Yeah. So now he has to be the face of the Flat Earth Society. You know, I wonder that about a lot of these things, that people do this for money because they're just suckering people, basically. That was my take on the documentary. The other thing about the documentary, which I found very interesting, was they had real scientists on. And they were like, it's easy for scientists to go, these guys are a bunch of idiots, right? They're like, no, they're just wrong. There's nothing that says it's a flat earth. It's the stupidest thing. But they were actually very cool about it. They said, no, listen, here's the thing. They're like, these are people that love science and they want science to be a certain way for them. It's basically misguided science. like somewhere along the lines when they were learning about science in school things got a little crossed and i thought it was very it was a very sweet way of saying like listen you're an idiot no no he was like listen i'm they love the fact that they are so passionate about science you know what i'm saying like yep they're using science to prove something but it was already I can't already prove it multiple times, but the attempt is real. Like, they do use real science. But again, like I said before, they're trying to prove the one thing. Yeah, they pull out the thing. It says 15 degrees, and they're like, well. Next thing. Yeah. Next step. Let's move on. There was another experiment where some guy put a bunch of, like, sticks, like, in a row, and they marked, you know, five feet up on the sticks. I think we talked about this one on another episode, too. Did we? Because we were talking about something else. But, yeah, the sticks were actually higher because you are on a higher plane when you're standing 100 feet away from somebody. Guess what? The ground isn't level, so it didn't make sense. Well, yeah, there's that, too. It was really funny. One guy's standing on a rock. One guy's taller than the other guy. Yeah, one guy's in the swamp. Yeah. I don't know what happened. Yeah. No, it's... Well yeah the flat earthers are crazy though I heard there a bunch of them that want to do an expedition to the edge of the world So they going to the North Pole or something Sure Or Antarctica. I can't forget which one. I forget which one they're doing. But they're trying to find the end. Sure. So let's pretend that the Earth is flat for a second, right? Let's do it. So do they think that we're on one side and South America is upside down? No, we're all on the same plane. We're all on the same plane. Yeah. Basically, the Earth is surrounded by a mountain range, I think is what they're saying. Hmm. Well, it broke my brain because I can't even fathom that. No. It's just like... So they're hoping to get to this mountain range so they can see the edge of the Earth. So I say, you know what, guys? Good luck. Yeah. But you know what's even crazier than all that? The edge of space. That's just a whole other thing. Dude. You know. Joe Rogan had a physicist on or whatever. Oh, I listened to that one. He's talking about that shit? Yeah. It hurts my brain, but I find it really fascinating at the same time. And he was talking about probabilities, right? And the one that broke my mind was he literally says at one point, it's inevitable that thought will not exist in the universe. Like all thought will be gone eventually with a long enough timeline all thought will be gone in the universe because we'll all just be dead eventually all life dies yeah yeah that makes sense thought will be gone huh yeah that yeah it's one of those things it's really hard to kind of that's like you're trying to drive down the freeway and you're like fuck thought's gone yeah well i'm dead i like it i know i was like joe rogan has some fucking god smart ass guys yeah it makes you feel like a bunch of monkeys yeah no some of those guys because that's you know that's their their job literally they're like physicists or whatever that's their job is to think about the shit and uh philosophers and oh man it's nuts yeah me i'm just like what does my wife always say she goes you think about pinball boobs and booze yeah i'm like yep that's about right it sounds perfect it depends on the day but yeah usually not in that order but you know depending on the day today's a boobs day exactly like let's go upstairs you know then when i'm done maybe i'll play some pinball it'll be great yeah yeah it doesn't matter but but you know it and i'm laughing but yeah it's like You know, I'm such a simple being myself, personally. Yeah, and I hear these guys like, you know, I got 10 PhDs and I did this. I'm like, fuck that. It's like Elon Musk. I have fun with my life. Joe Rogan had an astronaut on. He was talking about, this is like one of the head guys at SpaceX for Elon Musk. Sure, he's like the head researcher or astrophysicist or whatever. He was in space for like 95 days. He's like the longest American that had been up in space or whatever. But so he has some credentials. So he's like heading up SpaceX or whatever. And he was just talking about Elon Musk and they were talking about the possibility of actually going and colonizing Mars. And he's like, do you think we're going to get to Mars? He's like, yeah, we'll get to Mars. And he's like, you think your boss is ever going to go to Mars, Elon? you know and he laughed he's like well elon musk's uh goal is to die on mars he wants to be the first guy to die on mars that's his goal he has all the money in the world yeah so now everything is planning for his death basically he's like we gotta get to mars so i can die on sure well he wants to live in a bubble in mars and die sure and that's so crazy that makes sense because I mean it doesn't really make sense to me Personally but I get it Because you know we all spend our lives like working Trying to make money whatever He's already got that You know he's got more money than you'd ever know what to do with So now what do you do Yeah you start planning your death I start a space company Yeah I'm going to be the first guy to die on Mars Why not If you had all the money in the world would you start a space company No pinball company I already thought about that I told you My thought process is very... I'm going to open up three businesses. A pinball business, a booze business, and a boobs business. It's true. You laugh, but that's exactly what would happen. It would be like, here's my... Oh, God. I hope you win the lottery, dude. I would love to be a part of any of those businesses. Wouldn't that be awesome? This is the difference between you and Elon Musk. That's what I'm saying. It's so crazy because all these guys are trying to better humanity and better the world. And I'm like, I just want more pinball and boobs. Yeah, that's funny you say that because I think that astronaut and Elon Musk were on like a talk show. And then according to him, the astronaut, they asked him, well, you already were on. You were already in space. You had a job at NASA. You had everything. Why would you work for Elon Musk? And he said something like to the effects of, well, wouldn't you want to work with Howard Hughes, you know, when he was designing all these aircrafts like back in the day? Like he was a genius when it came to that kind of stuff. And it bothered him at the end. Like he thought about it a little bit. He was like, oh, yeah, Howard Hughes lost his mind. and does that mean that I think does my boss think now that I think he's going to lose his mind blah blah blah so later they're driving down the road this is like months later they're driving down the freeway and he's there with Elon Musk and he goes hey you know that interview we did and I said you were like Howard Hughes I just want to let you know it was more about the innovative stuff and not the crazy stuff and Elon Musk I guess is like one of those guys where you ask him a question yeah there's that weird awkward pause and you're like is he gonna say something well it's because he's his brain is so big he's thinking of all these things you know yeah his brain is going to talk to you his brain is going places where you have never been when you even asked the question you know and uh and then he finally answers he's like well i just don't agree with the analogy and he goes well what do you mean he's like well howard hughes he made a bunch of like you know planes that were you know pretty cool at the time you know big wooden plane the spruce goose or whatever and he's like there's there's things that he did but did he really change humanity and and the you know the astronaut goes uh well no not really he didn't really change anything because he got bigger better planes and he's like exactly i'm trying to change like how we live our lives and i'm just sitting there listening to that i'm like fuck elon musk is like an alien dude he's like he's not human he's trying to change humanity i'm telling you he's not human i'm telling you he comes from like another part of human evolution i swear to god that dude isn part of our world Drew Yeah Like if you said Elon here a billion dollars I want you to develop pinball boobs and booze. He'd be like, yeah, but it's been done. Everybody has boobs and booze and pinball. No, that's what I'm saying. Some of these guys, you know, and the Jeff Bezos of the world, I mean, that's why they're billionaires, exactly, because of their thought processes. you know you know drew and i you know we look at the world and i'm speaking for you drew because i know you but we look at the world like all right if we're going to open a business what what do people like and people like pinball boobs and boobs yep that's how we're going to make our money but these guys see innovation they think okay this is what i'm going to give you and people are going to lose their shit over it and drew and i are sitting there with our booze pinball boobs strip club pinball we need a better name than that we'll get there we'll get there pinball boobs palace you know what i'm saying though it's crazy it is but once again people's brains but that goes back to my original point once you have that kind of money then you know they're not they're not looking to necessarily make more money i mean sure they like making money as a for sport but you know they don't need the money so they're they're trying different things they get that money originally because they do something unique yeah exciting yeah bill gates jeff bezos yeah even elon musk berg elon yeah the whole the whole lot of them you know there's the only billionaires who didn't were like the walton kids because they just took their dad's money now they're just billionaires i don't know fucking waltons i have no idea yeah it is crazy though i i do want to see though it will be interesting because you know we're going to see something on mars in our lifetime yeah they are they're already pretty close that astronaut said 2020 this is the year where their their rockets like their space shuttle like they're they're they've been done and they've had their test flights but this is like this is going to be the year where they actually send people up now they're they're they're already working on rocket number it's like the spaceship number two and three sure but the one they have right now it's called the dragon they said it's good they say it's better than anything that we've ever had it's it's in conjunction with nasa and it's it's legit like it'll be able to bring people to space no problem and return and they're not burning up fuel canisters and things aren't going to be junked into space it won't be like reusable the flat earther no it's just mad mike rest in peace mad mike if you're listening to this in heaven i mean i'm sorry man but your parachute fucking failed after about 100 feet you know i just and once again i shouldn't be joking but just made me think like so back in the 60s right it was the united states versus russia trying to get to the moon right right that was a big thing that was a big thing like like russia got into space first or whatever and they you know they put a monkey in space i mean they did all kinds of shit right yeah no russia was really leading the charge for a while hey right now as it stands russia's still sending like rockets up there we have to hitch a ride now well and that was what i was kind of laughing to myself when i saw that video of mad mike i was like is that like russia's space program now no what do you think no they are they're early they're well nasa like shut down The rocket they were shooting up there for about, I don't know, it's been 10 years now. Yeah, they said it's been a while. Because it costs billions of dollars just to maintain it. Maintain it, yeah. Right. So at this time, to get to the space station, we hop on Russian rockets. That's crazy to me. Yeah. The Russians are way ahead of us right now, but with SpaceX and... So that's where all Putin's money goes? Speaking of all these billionaires. Right. But SpaceX and I think the other one was Boeing both have space programs that, in conjunction with NASA, are going to be reusable rockets. They're state-of-the-art. They're way better than anything Russia has now. And that's why they're going to – they say this is the year. This is the year of space exploration. What is that thing that Trump was going to start? That was Space Force, right? Yeah, that just reminds me of like a – The Army of Space. I don't know what that is. Space Pirates? That's a good movie. Don't make fun of Space Pirates. Have you ever seen that movie? No. Robert Urich. Watch Space Pirates, guys. Okay, it's on the list. Drew, I've got to get you a bunch of DVDs. Yeah. Sorry, I just got a headache. Okay. I'm going to get you a bunch of movies. You're going to have to watch, okay? But Space Pirates with Robert Urich. Fantastic movie. Stupid 80s movie. So dumb. It's awesome. I think I saw Space Pirates once, but it was like a porn parody. It was like Jenna Jameson and somebody doing something in space. That was just Pirates, I think. No, there was that one. That was like the most expensive porno ever made. I owned it, yeah. Nope. Another tangent. We went from shooting rockets in space to shooting rockets in my pants. Pinks Rockets? That's another good name. What are you watching? Pants Rockets I don't even know where I was going with that Exactly, that's why I had to start with something Everyone's like, what are they talking about? They're talking about Russian cosmonauts And astronauts Yeah, porn's more exciting Anyway Yeah, I don't know I don't know where I was going I'm so lost right now Listen, at the end of the day The day is over We're going to end up going or we're going to end up going to space in our timeline. I agree with you. Yeah, Mars. Well, we've had that rover on Mars forever. And basically, they have the capabilities to get to Mars now. They figure that out. I mean, it's just a matter of, like, how are we going to sustain ourselves there? Was it two weeks ago or last week they got radio signals from some distant galaxy? Did you hear that one? Yeah. They think the scientists are like, no, that's nobody sending it to us. So I'm like, the fuck you know? Yeah. How do you know? That stuff hurts my brain, too, because being real serious for a moment, like, just how they figure out the math behind that to figure out, you know, how far away this thing is. Yeah, space porn and all this stuff. You know, it's crazy. I can't believe they're sending us porn from space. Yeah, what was that? And radio from the seas. Here's some weird sounds coming from space, alien sex. All right, guys, 31 minutes. That's good enough. We love you. Thank you for listening to Fucking Friday. Drew, I had a great time. It was. It was fun. It was good. All right. Space exploration. Ah, so much fun. You know what? These Fucking Fridays write themselves. We never know what we're going to say. No, these are just, they're awesome. They're awesome. All right. We love doing them. I hope you guys have a great weekend. Stay safe out there. Ian and Drew's out. See you guys later. Bye-bye. .
