Shirts Without Armpit Contact

Speaker 1 0:17

Hey Scott, how's it going? It's going alright. How are you doing Awesome? Oh, my god, dude, I'm so excited for today, because I've been thinking about this solution for so long. What Like literally?

Speaker 2 0:29

years. I think I originally had the idea years ago, Adam, you know we've had a podcast going this whole time. Right, why have you not A lot of my ideas? They percolate. You had an opportunity they percolate.

Speaker 1 0:38

They're like simmering Okay, they added an opportunity they percolate.

Speaker 2 0:40

They're like simmering, okay, they're simmering.

Speaker 1 0:42

Well, now I'm excited. So this one simmered for a long time. I even took some actions on it. I hired somebody to help me work on it a little bit, and it didn't succeed though. So I need to turn it out to the solutioners, to our huge audience of creative solutioners need to give us how, how to do it. Okay, the solution is I got to be upfront with the solution.

Speaker 1 1:06

The solution is shirts that don't touch your armpits. Wait, that's the solution shirts that don't touch your armpits. Okay, so, like, right now, I have a t-shirt on and it's all crumpled up into my armpit. Right, if I just put my arms on my side, there's a whole bunch of cloth that's crumpled up into my armpit. You, you sure that's not a you problem, but, okay, everyone does. All shirts are cut to be, you know, in the armpit.

Speaker 1 1:47

Okay, what I noticed is that's the only part of the shirt that smells after a day, maybe after two or three days the whole shirt kind of smells, but after one day it's just the armpit that smells, right? So that means when I do laundry, most of the laundry is just cotton t-shirts my the t-shirts I wear every day. Okay, so if you don't have the cloth touch the armpit, I could wear the shirts two or three days comfortably without smelling. I'd still shower, but then I could just put the shirt I had on the day before back on or right cycle them through or whatever. Yeah, they wouldn't smell because the cloth would never come in contact with the what are called interstitial zones. That's where it's. Interstitial zones are where skin on skin. Your body is like, yeah, a crevice, like where your skin is on skin, and that's where your body gets dirty. It gets dirty in interstitial zones. Non-interstitial zones don't get very dirty at all but don't you?

Speaker 2 2:40

I mean, isn't part of what makes it smelly? Is that, like you're producing sweat and the sweat then is transferred to your shirt and then the stuff that goes with the sweat is also transferred to your shirt only?

Speaker 1 2:53

because it comes in contact with the interstitial zone but if there's no cloth there?

Speaker 2 2:59

yeah, it makes me think that the sweat just kind of stays in my armpit. Yeah, it just sits in the hairs of your armpit.

Speaker 1 3:07

No, but it'll just stay kind of hang around and evaporate from your armpit. It's fine. Where does it evaporate? To Like, imagine, if you have a tank top on, do your armpits get all uncomfortable? No, it's actually more comfortable when you don't have cloth up against your armpit all day long.

Speaker 2 3:24

Okay, but you could also sit around someone who's got like an odor and then all of a sudden you start to get that odor. I don't know if it's the touch, don't you think? Just being that close to a sweaty armpit Well, you still need to be clean.

Speaker 1 3:36

I mean, I'm not saying change your hygiene, I'm saying still shower once or twice a day, you know underarm deodorant et cetera, but then don't have the cloth of your shirt up against the if you the main. What we're trying to solve here is climate change.

Speaker 2 3:51

Okay, we're talking about climate change. This is, this is not a.

Speaker 1 3:54

This is not a hygiene issue. This is a climate issue. People use an enormous amount of energy cleaning their clothes. If people could just adopt and we have fast fashion, so people are buying new clothes constantly right, if we could just change the cut of the clothing so that it didn't require washing half or three times as much, we would reduce the amount of energy used to wash and dry clothes by an enormous amount. So this is supposed to be a climate. We're supposed to start with a solution, but then I have to, at some point, get to the problem we're talking about. I want to do this as a green solution.

Alien Apparel

Speaker 1 4:36

So an environmentalist or just anybody who doesn't want to do laundry all the time which I hate doing laundry I'd like to be able to do laundry half as much if I could. Okay, I would love to have shirts designed that had no, the armpits did not have contact, like, the shirt did not have contact with the armpits. So what do you think this shirt should look like? This is kind of like how does a horse wear pants Like, does it wear it up the back two legs, or does it wear it up the front two legs, or does it wear it up all four legs right.

Speaker 1 5:04

This is kind of like how would you?

Speaker 2 5:07

structure. I've heard that same quandary, but it's how would you put a hat on an alien from the movie alien, a xenomorph?

Speaker 1 5:13

oh yeah, like how would they wear? Would they wear it on the front of their head or at the very top? Yeah, they put the whole. Is it a huge big hat all the way?

Speaker 2 5:20

yeah, I've seen that version of this, this quandary. But yeah, what would this shirt look like? What I know? Would it? I know what? Would it would it look like something so interesting that you would not be invited out. So you know, see, that's the thing.

Speaker 1 5:34

It needs to look cool enough or normal. It has to look normal or cool, right. So one idea I have is the pharaoh.

Speaker 1 5:42

I call it the pharaoh, okay the pharaoh, oh the like the egyptian pharaoh, yeah yeah, because you know, pharaohs always have those like circular things around their heads, like on like around their necks, like they kind of just fall over their shoulders and then they have like a kind of wrap around their belly yes so that's how you could make a shirt. Now there's no, nothing would be touched because the wrap would fall over your armpit and and chest like the thing over the pharaohs.

Speaker 2 6:08

I mean, they live in a real hot zone there. They would have had to solve this whole sweat situation.

Speaker 1 6:12

I know the pharaoh, so that's the one I call the pharaoh. So there would be. I don't know if it'd be connected to itself. I think they'd probably want to connect. So the whole thing had integrity. But you'd pull it over and it would have like this drape thing over the, over the front and the and the back, and then it would have this tubular thing like a normal t-shirts tube around the abdomen, like around the belly, and you could tuck it in or not or whatever, be just like a shirt below, but it would have this kind of thing over the top. That's one solution.

Speaker 1 6:45

Another solution is just slits like just like you just cut them out like holes. Yeah, you just cut out the part that's in contact with the armpits I don't want.

Speaker 2 6:55

I don't want people free pitting that out there, either me, neither. I don't want that covered. I wanted to be covered. Yeah, I wanted them to keep their sweaty pit. Like you know, I want their shirt to absorb. Maybe I don't want my shirt to absorb my sweat, but I do want other people's shirts to absorb.

Speaker 1 7:08

No, no, you don't want it because then they smell more. You're giving more. Think of the shirt as, like a lattice where bacteria can grow. It's going to be smellier If it's just the hair it's. It's less lattice, it's less growth area for bacteria. It's going to be less smelly if it's uh, if it's not in contact. So what's another? Okay?

Speaker 2 7:27

so okay, so you're pulling up. Okay. I found here I share. I started sharing my screen. I found here a listing for a type of shirt. It's on amazon, but they, what they've done is they've sewn an extra pad into the armpit. It looks like probably some sort of absorbing sweat pad situation. That's not an elegant solution.

Speaker 1 7:47

It's not going to work. It's not going to work.

Speaker 2 7:49

Yeah, that's going to intensify what you're talking about.

Speaker 1 7:52

It's going to have multiple problems. One is you're still going to have to wash the shirt every day. Second is it's going to make your armpit warmer because you just had an extra layer of cloth, which means you're going to sweat more, right? Second, it's going to be even more smelly because now there's even more cloth, they're all soaking through a sweat and getting bacteria, and then bacteria grows. At the end of the day it's going to be smelly. I mean at the end of you know, at the end of a day or two days or whatever. It's going to be smelly. That's see, I've done the research. This does not exist. This is a solution for the multiverse baby. This is new. So we got the pharaoh, the slit. I think the slit is stupid, so we're not doing the slit. Uh, we got the pharaoh. Okay, I have this kind of thing.

Speaker 1 8:30

Okay, now the tunic, which is a little bit like remind me what a tunic is a tunic is just a rectangular piece of cloth with a head hole and you and you put the head hole over and you put the front of pieces of cloth with a head hole.

Speaker 1 8:40

And you put the head hole over and you put the front of pieces of cloth in front and the back of the piece of cloth in back, and then you can cinch it, either with a belt cinch, or you can do ties and you can tie the sides up, like with one or two ties on either side, uh-huh. Okay, here's another option. All right, okay. So this interesting thing of like ties like cross. Okay, here's another option. All right, okay. So this interesting thing of like ties like cross. Okay, I'm doing it right now.

Speaker 2 9:07

The blanket, just wearing a shawl or a blanket, if you just put a shawl over your shoulders.

Speaker 1 9:12

you can actually be totally free underneath right. So the shawl, actually the blanket, is a odor-proof solution.

Speaker 2 9:27

So as long as we're willing to dress like a blanketed grandma or a Little Caesar or a Pharaoh King Tut, then we can save the planet.

Speaker 1 9:42

But apart from that, we're screwed with our modern clothing. Well, how do we dress now? Well, how do we dress now? What? What's the like? What's the like? Goofy name you could make fun of the way we dress now what I?

Speaker 2 9:54

I don't, I don't know. I mean, I'm sure it is, but like right now we dress well, now we look like sad suburban dweeb children.

Speaker 1 10:02

That's what we look like now. Well, that seems. All children. That's what we look like now.

Speaker 2 10:10

Well, that seems all put upon by well, yours are put upon to provide a little Caesar yeah, that's, that was a real person he makes pizzas.

Speaker 1 10:17

So are sad suburban children. They're also real people. They eat pizzas. I'm gonna need to cut up some of these and try it and make yeah let me see what this looks like I I want to see you wearing them out and about. You're seeing my blanket already. Yeah, but you're not out in public showing off. I don't wear the blankets in public. Native Americans do.

Speaker 2 10:34

Also, I think putting a blanket on will make you imminently more sweaty if you walk out, well, not if it's cold Right now.

Speaker 1 10:42

Not if it's cold, cold right now, out of its cold, sure, yeah, well, you put on jackets, and jackets also have this problem. Jackets, some jackets, especially jackets that are like form-fitting they go up in your armpit too, and then the jacket gets all smelly. There are people washing their jackets. I don't understand if you wash if you wash a jacket a few times, it gets completely worn out.

Speaker 2 11:01

So I like having sleeves and I like having my torso and I like having them separate so that I can move around.

Speaker 1 11:08

I feel like.

Speaker 2 11:09

I have a more form-fitting. Maybe that's what I'm missing from what you're talking about. I like the form-f, or I don't know what to call it.

Speaker 1 11:17

So, imagine this, so imagine this Imagine you've got like a tube that goes Well. Imagine you have like a shirt and sleeves and the armpits are cut out, so there's like a hole.

Speaker 1 11:40

Okay, but, now you adhere a piece of cloth, like basically the way the pectoral muscle so if you think of the pectoral muscle goes from the chest and then it comes up over the armpit, right, uh-huh. So what you do is you create a kind of pectoral piece of cloth and a lateral piece of cloth on the back that covers from, you know, from the front and back covers the armpit.

Speaker 2 12:08

And when you raise it, yeah, without touching it, it's over the front. You're talking about a pit kilt. You're talking about an armpit kilt.

Speaker 1 12:14

Yeah, yeah, essentially it's basically modeled after the muscles of the armpit right. The lateral muscle doesn't cover the, it doesn't touch the armpit. It covers the back of it and the pectoral muscle covers the front of it. So this is sort of right over that. You add these cloths and when you raise your arm, those two pieces of cloth kind of fold over and cover the armpit, so you don't see the armpit when the arms are down. And then when you raise your arm they tighten right, because you're raising it.

Speaker 1 12:46

They become more okay, you know tighten and that covers over more or less the armpit. Maybe there'd be a half inch or an inch opening. We might see a little hair coming out.

Speaker 2 12:55

But that's complicated, natural, but yeah, so it'd be.

Speaker 1 12:58

this is, I think, the best bet. I think this is our best bet is is the is the kind of batman or the, whatever you want to call it them? The anatomical t-shirt? We call it the anatomical t-shirt. Oh, muscle T. This is the muscle T because it's literally following the muscles.

Speaker 2 13:16

What about that surgery? What about that surgery you can have that turns off your sweat glands?

Speaker 1 13:22

In your armpit.

Muscle T-Shirt and Underwear Debate

Speaker 2 13:22

Yeah, they can go in there and turn them off. Like lasers or something I don't know exactly, but there's some sort of a shortcut. It's not a good idea, because what happens is your body compensates and you start sweating out of other spots like the people report like they're like.

Speaker 1 13:38

No, my hands are like way sweatier now you can another surgery to get rid of that.

Speaker 2 13:42

So, oh man, it's just surgeries after all the surgeries and it's just going to be like spraying out of one spot on your forehead I think we should like allow our systems to operate again.

Speaker 1 13:53

Zootopia we're talking about zootopia, anti-feudalism here. We're trying to like let our natural you know, zootopic lives succeed without crushing the environment and destroying the environment also without doing laundry. Just on a basic level. I don't want to do. I do laundry like every maybe 10 days or 14 days, and it's all my cotton t-shirts. If I could do half of where my cotton t-shirts two days instead of one day, I would do easily like, like, like half as much laundry. But I can't. It's terrible.

Speaker 2 14:24

There you go. So this is the muscle.

Speaker 1 14:27

So we need the muscle T. Okay, so this is good Cause. When we were, when we when we started this conversation, I did not have the muscle, I had the muscle. The muscle T structure was on the very edge of my imagination.

Speaker 1 14:37

I was thinking more of the Pharaoh, or the slit or the or, like the cut open or the or the um, you know something a little bit more the tunic, the tunic. But but you know, you made me, you really pressed me with the little caesar comment like, hey, we got to have something that really fits our modern times, right, and, and that I.

Speaker 2 14:56

I appreciate that, scott, you're always pushing me if I'm going to spend hours and hours in the gym every day, which I definitely do. I mean, there's an audio medium, trust me.

Speaker 1 15:05

But if I'm gonna do that, then I want.

Speaker 2 15:08

I want some form-fitting I want, I don't want to, so this could be so what I'm?

Speaker 1 15:12

describing the muscle shirt, the muscle t, the, the anatomical t, would be form-fitting. It would have these, it would have these sort of strips of cloth right here.

Speaker 2 15:23

That would be a little bit different, but maybe even could be a little bit tight, like it could even show off the deltoid a little I was just gonna say people would definitely get some with like enhanced flaps that make like their their pecs and shoulders look more just, more defined, and you're just like oh, what's going on?

Speaker 1 15:39

I'm gonna make one of these shirts today. I'm gonna take one of my. I want to see this, okay, and I'm gonna and going to, but wait, where do I?

Speaker 2 15:46

oh, I can cut the armpits out, that's easy, but then I need to make these strips that go over the Cut to seven hours from now when I get a string of text messages where you're like I was wrong. It doesn't work.

Speaker 1 15:58

I'm trapped, come and help me. I'm stuck. A terrible mistake I've become venom.

Speaker 2 16:09

It's like a venom suit. Now I have this alter ego.

Speaker 1 16:11

Now I think this is going to work the muscle T, and what's interesting about this is because it doesn't exist, I could sell it. This could be a business model. Look at that. And because it didn't, exist until our conversation.

Speaker 2 16:24

I can profit off of it, what as?

Speaker 1 16:26

well, ip, ip, ip. That's not how that works. That's not how this works.

Speaker 2 16:29

Oh well, I'm going to mail this podcast episode to myself in the mail, and then it's copyrighted. Is that how that works, I feel, like you're just playing like childish games.

Speaker 1 16:37

Like I touched the base first. Therefore, that's legal Magic. What else is related? So what other things like this? Obviously, our underwear gets dirty, but it's kind of the whole point of underwear.

Speaker 2 16:51

My underwear never touches my armpits, so that's not part of it okay, so you're safe. That's I didn't I don't pull it up that high I pull my underwear all the way.

Speaker 1 16:57

Oh no, yeah, I'm a college professor. I pull it all the way up. It touches my pocket protector and my armpits. Nerdy, but I, if you would have told me that I'm a computer science professor when I was like 14, I would have said you are crazy. There's no way I'm a computer science professor.

Speaker 2 17:16

You had to look up from your drawings of tunics and muscle shirts.

Speaker 1 17:19

You're like, absolutely not going to happen. Sir, I'm a genius fashion designer. That's what I'm going to be.

Speaker 2 17:25

I'm bringing back the Pharaoh. You just watch. You come and see the Pharaoh when I'm walking down the catwalk in the Pharaoh. Oh, a Pharaoh would walk down a catwalk because they had such yeah, exactly, they had enormous respect for cats.

Speaker 1 17:42

No, I would have never thought we can't fix underwear.

Speaker 2 17:45

I will reserve judgment.

Speaker 1 17:47

Underwear gets in touch with your crotch, it's going to get dirty. You wash them. Okay, skid marks aren't going away, but you know. But that's fine, because underwear is so small that you could. I mean, if you were going to wash an entire load of just underwear, it'd be like 40 pairs of underwear. I mean, that's like two months worth of underwear.

Speaker 2 18:08

I don't think I have it.

Speaker 1 18:09

Who has that much underwear? No, nobody. But if you did want to really push the limits, like if we're talking about pushing the underwear barrier as far as it can go, you know? Oh, sorry, maybe I'm kind of going over your head in one way, although I think you'll understand it once I say it. Do you know what limiting factor analysis is?

Speaker 2 18:26

No, I think you do, I mean, I can figure Because we all do limiting factor analysis on our laundry, right?

Speaker 1 18:31

We think how soon do I need to do laundry? Well, I'm out of whatever the limiting factor is. I'm out of socks. I therefore have to do the whole load of laundry. I'm out of underwear. I have to do the whole load of laundry. I'm out, right. So so you have to like a reverse bottleneck, like yes, you have to construct your, your, your, your clothing setup so that you have a.

Speaker 1 18:52

You don't have a kind of or like a limiting factor that makes you do laundry all the time. Right, if you're doing laundry every five days because you didn't have socks. You just buy more socks and now something else can become the limiting factor, right? So I'm saying if underwear was your limiting factor and all you had to wash was underwear, like if you just if we just wore underwear, if we were like just underwear, people where everyone just wore underwear constantly and that's it, nothing else I would call myself underwear people then we wouldn't have to do laundry.

Speaker 1 19:20

We do laundry once a month. We do 30 pairs of underwear. Just throw it in, you know, and then you'd have your one or two days of laundry underwear, like underwear that you have when you're doing laundry and then you'd have a whole new 30 clean true, you don't have to do laundry once every 30 days, but you're not factory.

Speaker 2 19:35

Get all the like outer stuff towels gets protected from and like if you just wore underwear. You would collect all the things that make your regular clothes dirty as well, throughout the day you wash yourself off shower but you would collect it on the. I'm saying the underwear would get dirtier faster if that's all you wore.

Speaker 1 19:52

You'd think you'd have to change your underwear more than once a day. Scott, how often do you change your underwear?

Speaker 2 19:56

I don't go out a day.

Speaker 1 19:57

I don't go out in only underwear, like a giant man baby, so you think you'd have to change your underwear more than once a day.

Speaker 2 20:03

If you're going out and doing stuff in it probably I don Like your jeans and your shirts and stuff if you sit down on things and, yeah, you pick up crud.

Speaker 1 20:13

But how often do you wash your pants? I wash my pants like once every, maybe month. What they're clean. Why would I wash them? Because you take them out and touch things and sit on things. This is the beauty of underwear it does. Oh, you touch things externally, yeah, yeah, but underwear protects your pants from getting dirty, from touching the interstitial zones of your body.

Speaker 2 20:34

Yeah, and pants protect your underwear from getting all the crud that's out on a bus stop when you sit down on there.

Speaker 1 20:40

What crud is there? What's crud?

Speaker 2 20:42

On a public bus stop.

Speaker 1 20:48

Oh, I think famously there's no crud on those. But I mean, I don't sit on the bed. I don't sit on the bed in my pants. Why not? Because the pants are not the cleanest thing in the world.

Speaker 2 20:56

What are you talking about now, though?

Speaker 1 20:57

But they're not smelly, which is the key thing, and they're not visibly dirty. If they're not smelly and not visibly dirty, I say fair play, don't, don't wash, no wash. That sounds like the science of the five second rule. I don't know that. That's a real bit of a five, real science. Okay, I can tell this five second rule. I know the science of this five second rule is the moisture content of the thing dropped determines the length of time it can be on the ground. Okay, because moisture is what actually collects the bacteria from the ground. So if it's a dry like saltine cracker easy 10 second rule, no problem, you could probably get away with 30 seconds. Because it's so dry like saltine cracker easy 10-second rule, no problem, you could probably get away with 30 seconds. Because it's so dry that no bacteria is going to transfer.

Speaker 2 21:36

I'm willing to leave that dry cracker on whatever ground it dropped on.

Speaker 1 21:40

But, if you drop a flan, like a straight-up wet-ass flan, right on the ground, you're done, because it's wet. It's going to soak up all the bacteria, right away it immediately, yeah, of course, yeah, done, because it's wet, it's going to soak up all the immediately.

Speaker 1 21:55

Yeah, of course, yeah, so it's. So actually, the five second rule, this should be a whole nother solution, this mini solution right here. The really the five second rule is a variable thing based on the moisture content on the surface, not just the moisture content internally, but the moisture content on the surface of whatever's dropped yeah, we have a.

Speaker 2 22:05

We create a moisture coefficient and then we say based on the prevalence of this coefficient it's a function of the coefficient and surface portion of time.

Speaker 1 22:15

Yeah, so we can call it SM, so it's F of SM or SFM SF solutions on the multiverse. And that's how we get right, right, exactly. It's the surface function of the moisture content. So it's sfm solutions of the multiverse, everybody. So the next time you drop something, just remember how wet is that thing, and then start your clock all right.

Speaker 2 22:42

So, armpit, you're gonna make one of these shirts, you're telling me today.

Speaker 1 22:45

I think I'm gonna make the muscles the muscle shape.

Speaker 2 22:47

I want to see where there's strips over because I will hold, will hold out judgment. I will reserve judgment. I've been wrong before. Let me see what it looks like.

Speaker 1 22:55

I might be like no, that looks. I think I might have to make a picture of it first.

Speaker 2 22:58

You're going to have to diagram. I mean it's going to.

Speaker 1 23:00

I can't imagine you just wing it and it goes perfect.

Speaker 2 23:04

It sounds like it's a little bit complicated.

Speaker 1 23:06

It's just Just cut the armpits out and then put covers over the front of the back, so you don't see it.

Speaker 2 23:17

You say that now I want to talk to Adam, who's done the process, and see if that's how he would describe it.

Speaker 1 23:24

It's impossible, it's impossible. I've tried everything. No, no, adam, it's impossible.

Speaker 2 23:28

I heard you say you just cut out the flap and then stick it onto the place, stick it on the front.

Speaker 1 23:33

Okay, it might be hard, but I'm going to do a graphical.

Speaker 2 23:35

I do want to see it.

Speaker 1 23:36

I'll do a graphical example of it first.

Speaker 2 23:38

I want to see it.

Speaker 1 23:38

Yeah, that sounds really cool, and then we'll do, and then we'll try to do a real one.

Speaker 2 23:54

I think I want to just show it to a seamstress and be like make me this, I'll pay you a hundred dollars and then you don't hear back from this person for like several weeks. And then all of a sudden you see their new product line for like billions of dollars and the fashion industry is like applauding them.

Speaker 1 24:03

And you're like, that was mine, it's mine and I'm like in the and on the ground and like in the street, like drinking like cognac from a bottle, Like if only my shirt Right.

Speaker 2 24:15

You can't even afford to buy your own shirt because it's so popular and cool now.

Speaker 1 24:19

Once I had a railroad, made it run made it race against time. What Once I had a railroad. Sorry, sir, can you spare a dime?

Speaker 2 24:30

What is this?

Speaker 1 24:31

That's a song from the Great Depression. That's a famous song from the Great Depression.

Speaker 2 24:37

Ah sorry, I clearly have slipped on my Great Depression famous song studyings.

Speaker 1 24:42

I think you last episode quoted Blues Traveler's singer, or something that nobody knows except for you, so I can quote very well-known famous folk songs.

Speaker 2 24:54

My music reference was within my lifetime and not the 1930s.

Speaker 1 25:00

Well, there's nothing wrong with a little Great Depression ballad. Arlo Guthrie A little lament no, not Arlo Guthrie.

Speaker 2 25:09

What.

Speaker 1 25:09

Woody Guthrie.

Speaker 2 25:10

Who's Arlo Guthrie?

Speaker 1 25:14

no, not arlo guthrie, what woody guthrie? Who's arlo guthrie? His son, who was a 60s folk singer. But woody guthrie was the more kind of 30s and 40s.

Speaker 2 25:18

I didn't realize arlo guthrie was the child of nepotism apparently yeah, he was kind of a nepo baby nepo baby I've seen him in concert and I named my cat after him.

Speaker 1 25:26

Arlo is named after arlo guthrie, but not woody nope, nope, okay.

Speaker 2 25:32

Well then, I made the wrong reference woody guthrie pretend, I said that, woody guthrie yeah amazing reference.

Speaker 1 25:37

Good, pull scott. That was a great one, scott. Good, cut, not too deep, not too, not too shallow right right in this spot. Okay, so everybody keep it climaty. I mean, the main point of this solution is everyone should be thinking about everything they can possibly do to fix the climate. We're, like, really in trouble.

Speaker 2 25:57

The ultimate thing. I don't know that we got messed up. It is we were sticking on the shirts a lot, but you're saying fewer loads of laundry means less water used.

Speaker 1 26:05

Yes, Well, water doesn't matter.

Climate Solutions and Energy Conservation

Speaker 1 26:07

What matters is electricity, electricity matters, yeah, what matters matter, what matters? Electricity electricity, it matters. Yeah, what matters is carbon. I mean sure, water's fine. Yes, okay, yes, multimodal environmentalism you think about lots of things, but the key thing is like if we used up a lot of water, that wouldn't like we'd just get more water. But climate, the climate change, will actually make it so there isn't enough water there to even get. It's like very bad. And then when you don't want any, when you do want water, then there's flooding. I, that's what climate change basically causes.

Speaker 2 26:34

Flooding Extremes and then droughts. We don't do well with extremes. We like that moderate middle zone.

Speaker 1 26:40

We're going to keep doing climate solutions I make light of all this, but this is horrible. We are in trouble. Do you know that under Biden we are the greatest oil-producing nation, nation not just in the world, but in the world in history? Yeah, america is producing more oil by fracking and doing other. We are exporters of oil. As much oil as america burns every day to run their cars and run their everything.

Speaker 2 27:08

We export oil well, that's cool, we pumped out of the ground. Yeah, well, at least we'll never run out of it, if you were to try, no we if you were to design. You know, use more of it as it runs low. We use more of it faster than we're.

Speaker 1 27:21

That should be you know, you know what's a good idea? Actually, here's an idea. This is a really good idea. Oh okay, there's this. Oh my god, I just had the best fucking solution ever. Oh, maybe I'll do it as another episode. That's hilarious.

Speaker 2 27:35

That's hilarious all right, craziest idea, but we don't have time to go into it. Stay tuned, everybody, I'll do it.

Speaker 1 27:40

I'll do a bunch more climate solutions because, yeah, things are not getting better, they're getting worse and we like we all need to like start doing like. We need to like start wearing shirts with no throwing molotov cocktails is what we start need to start doing.

Speaker 2 27:54

But yeah all right, everybody keep it climaty, keep those armpits yeah, or you could put it you know what's free you know what is something everyone can do.

Speaker 1 28:02

That's super easy. We don't do old solutions, but I will just end with it stop working out.

Speaker 2 28:06

If we stop working out, we won't sweat keep working out.

Speaker 1 28:08

it's healthy. What you can do is just the dryer actually uses way more electricity than the washer, true? So all you have to do is go on Amazon and buy a really nice. They're really nice. You can buy these strings that go across your laundry room and you pull it across and you can hang with hangers, hang all your clothes and then just leave the door open in your laundry room. They'll dry over like a day or two and then you just take them all down and and fold them and the cloths, the cloths a little stiff. If it's really stiff, throw it all in the laundry, in the dryer at the end, put it on a cold cycle and just have it like fluff it up with some manual dry.

Speaker 2 28:44

I mean like dry your clothes without. If you do that, it actually makes a significant difference to your to to like the energy load of the honestly, though, I think that the better appeal for that is that it makes a significant difference to your like energy bills like oh yeah, yeah, you'll save a lot of money running a dryer versus drying your clothes by you know the slow way.

Speaker 1 29:05

Yeah, massive impact on the electric bill and if you have to, if you have to use the dryer, try to use it between 10 am and 4 pm. That's six hours of drying.

Speaker 2 29:17

That's a lot. Well, just try to use it in that window.

Speaker 1 29:19

Just do what you need everybody.

Speaker 2 29:22

Don't use that whole time if you don't need it.

Speaker 1 29:23

Because that's when no one's using electricity, because everyone's at work and there's very little electricity used, and so the load is low to be used, and so the load is low, and so a lot of that energy is actually alternative energy Solar and wind is being used at that time.

Speaker 2 29:34

And the more energy you save with your dryer everybody, the more energy you can use in Bitcoin mining.

Speaker 1 29:40

So we think that.

Speaker 2 29:42

That's a good what? Oh wait, you're giving me eyeballs. Don't do that, Don't do that. No Bitcoin mining.

Speaker 1 29:49

You could actually limit your use of ChatGPT too. Actually, I've heard that using ChatGPT every time you hit enter in ChatGPT Makes you dumber. Does it make you dumber? No, it doesn't make you dumber. It uses a ton of electricity.

Speaker 2 29:58

I don't know the exact amount but it's a lot. I think it might make you dumber, I don't know. I'll hold out on that one.

Speaker 1 30:07

Other things are making me dumber, like watching too much TV. Okay, everybody, thanks. Keep it climaty. Do your part.

Speaker 2 30:16

Also throw Molotov cocktails. Thanks for joining in. Oh, don't do that part. Yes, don't do that, we didn't encourage that at all.

Speaker 1 30:20

Property violence is merited, oh boy, not human violence, don't hurt anyone, but property violence definitely merited at this point.

Speaker 2 30:29

All right, well welcome. This has been an anarchism from the multiverse. This is not anarchism.

Speaker 1 30:34

This is literally the solution to solving, to not having anarchy. Anarchy will emerge if we don't stop fossil fuel crap.

Speaker 2 30:44

We must use sensitive, targeted things like Molotov cocktails.

Speaker 1 30:49

Yeah, or maybe Molotov cocktails is the wrong implementation. Things which have famously never gotten out of hand. But definitely property damage is merited at this point.

Speaker 2 31:01

You're just saying Viva La Revolution. Yeah, c, c, no big deal, just Viva, viva La.

Speaker 1 31:08

Revolution, la Revolution. Yeah, you know.

Speaker 2 31:13

All right, everybody have a a good one. See you next time.

Speaker 1 31:15

Thank you.
