Chapter 1: What are the implications of Korean Fan Death?
I don't think they even sell weed. I don't even think they sell units of weed that I could consume in one day there. Yeah, I mean, it would be a crazy day. You could probably do it. I couldn't believe it was open that early. It's crazy. So there's my story, I guess. How crazy how early the Weed Shop is. Early opening.
I couldn't believe how early it opened. I had a dream last night that we were at the airport. I mean, you'd think like 10 a.m. for that. All right, sorry. No, I've been having, speaking of weed, I think it's really thrown my dreams in a blender. Because I stop, start, stop, start. It's not like I'm every night. So if I have two nights in a row where I take an edible and then take one night off,
One of those three nights, the dream is going to be the craziest thing in the world. But all my dreams have been, they're not scary. They're all like aviation related, which is kind of odd. I think it's just because we're like, I've been booking, I've just booked a flight last weekend and then we're flying today. And so it's like a whole thing.
But yeah, I was in a private jet in one of the dreams and it had 60 foot ceilings. It was odd. Maybe like a 737 Max. Well, it felt like the inside of the Titanic. It wasn't round. I don't think I ever went. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Did you know?
Oh, what if our thing hits an iceberg?
We're fucked. I think if there's an iceberg in the Bahamas, we are not just the ones that are fucked. That could actually be good for our planet. Good sign, yeah. The earth is healing. We show up to NASA, there's like penguins, we're like, yes. The earth is healing. We hit an iceberg, we're like, wow. All our hard work is paying off. Mother Earth is smiling. I can see it.
My hydro flask works. They're like, what? No, get off. The ship is going down right now. I don't know if this is a dream or just something I was thinking about while laying in bed last night. I think it was just something I was thinking about. I was thinking about what happens if we hit an iceberg. I don't know why. It's just Our cruise ship that we're about to go on.
It's such a perverse thought. I've never been on a cruise ship. I feel like every time I'm on a plane, I think in the back of my mind at one point, I'm like, I don't know. Anytime there's the smallest bump in turbulence, this whole fucking thing's going down.
But when the thing hit an iceberg in my... I was envisioning what would happen. It's while we're filming trying every drink at Margaritaville the cruise with like lav mics on. And I just could picture and be like, Lucas, keep fucking rolling. This is journalism now. It's the string quartet going down at the ship. You keep that fucking camera rolling.

Chapter 2: What happened at Dean's Blue Hole?
Chapter 3: How does trusting your intuition affect decision-making?
Chapter 4: What are the most common fears about the ocean?
Get some marijuana edibles. Sometimes I like to take them in the evening. I brought some if you want some.
So I didn't have any and I was like, it could be like a fun thing on the boat that we're going on. Because we're going on a cruise right from this podcast. We are leaving right here to go to Palm Beach and then from Palm Beach to Nassau. Bahamas. Jimmy Buffetts Margaritaville Cruise. R.I.P. King. Ich habe gestern Morgen aufgewacht und dachte, oh Mann, ich habe keine Gummis.
Vielleicht könnte ich gehen, aber ich habe wahrscheinlich keine Zeit. Es gibt keine Art, es zu öffnen, bevor wir es um 8 Uhr eröffnen. Die Sponsore öffnet um 7 Uhr. Yeah, I went in there. It's like 730 this morning. And I was like, why are you guys open?
And the guy was like, the guy told me he's like, we have people that will line up like before 7 a.m. every day. And he's like some people. He's like, I've noticed people that are like trying to be like more dignified and not look like crackheads are they sit in their cars until like 706. Und dann kommen sie und gehen rein und sagen, wie geht's?
Er sagt, ich habe dich gesehen, dass du es auswählen musstest, damit du nicht so bescheiden siehst. 100%. I don't think they even sell weed. I don't even think they sell units of weed that I could consume in one day there. Yeah, I mean, it would be a crazy day. You could probably do it.

Chapter 5: What makes true crime so fascinating?
No, no, no. It was like 40 minutes away. But that could be... Those things... Ja. Ja. Ja. Jake, we already told this story, but Jake Johnson's mom, he went to your high school, he went to New Trier. When he was in elementary school, his mom came into his room and was like, you're not going to school today. Did I already tell you this? You did, but can you remind me?
So his mom came into his room and was like, you're not going to school today. And he was like, what? We're going to Koreatown. It's a field trip. I was so excited. She was like, you're not going. And he was like, I'm never going to be at school. And she was like, when are you on the field trip? He was like, we leave at 8am, get dropped off at 3. She was like, Okay, you can go.
When he's on the field trip, a mad, like a crazed woman went into the school in her bathrobe and like shot a teacher and like some kids. She's crazy. She just like had a feeling. I think moms have intuition. Well, anyone's, but yeah.
I told you my mom's one. My mom predicted a shark attack. No. My mom and dad used to be scuba enthusiasts. They were either in Mexico or Hawaii or something. They were going to explore this wreck. This is a true story. I'm not teeing you up. It sounds like this set up to a joke.
Chapter 6: What things do dads love to say?
Chapter 7: What happens during pitch submissions?
Chapter 8: How does the iPod shuffle change music listening?
What a crazy phenomenon. They don't know what's down there, because it's so dark. 663 feet, so maybe not the deepest part, one of the deepest parts of the ocean, but I think it's the deepest, one of the deepest blue holes. It's certainly Dean's deepest part. It's the deepest part of Dean. I wonder why they named it Dean.
I think I found it. Yeah, probably. But isn't that just bizarre? They were like, shit will come up from there. It's clearly gotten fucked up by some animal. It's actually where they got the microwave. Oh, oh, oh. It's only like 100 feet wide, right? So you could swim in there. I don't think I would want to. The second you're over it, there's 660 feet of open water below you. That freaks me out.
Isn't that terrifying? I kind of get freaked out by water when I can't touch my feet. Same. Isn't it kind of embarrassing? I used to deny it. I used to act like I wasn't afraid of the ocean. It's really scary.
If you don't have even a small part of your brain that's aware that this is dangerous, there's something wrong. Or you've grown up in the ocean. If I'm in open water in the ocean, the second I hit the water, it's like full panic to get back to the thing. I agree. Did I ever tell you about when John O'Connor and I thought we were going to get eaten by a great white shark? J.O.C.
We took his boat into, there's this beach in Maine called Casino Beach. You can put your boat on a mooring and then swim into the beach. We were meeting our buddies there. It's probably like less than an 80-yard swim from where we were going. But it's still like kind of far. And it's pretty deep once because we're like borderline out of the cove.
And we both dove in and we didn't like say anything to each other. But it was clear we were both like swimming way faster than normal. Like it just didn't feel... I can't speak for John. But the second I hit the water, it was like... This is not good. I feel like there's something right here. So we book it in. We were like, that was kind of silly. I was scared. Were you scared?
He was like, a little bit. And then a fucking day later, that woman in Maine got bit in half by a great white shark. Jesus Christ. At the same location?
No, no, no. It was like 40 minutes away. But that could be... Those things... Ja. Ja. Ja. Jake, we already told this story, but Jake Johnson's mom, he went to your high school, he went to New Trier. When he was in elementary school, his mom came into his room and was like, you're not going to school today. Did I already tell you this? You did, but can you remind me?
