In this episode, we take a trip in the snow and talk about the cold and how it's a good thing we don't live in the big bad city of Manchester, England. We also talk about how to survive in the cold, and why you shouldn't even be scared of the cold in the first place. Also, we talk about what it's like to go dog sledding in the middle of the night in sub zero temperatures in front of a crowd of 70 year old Manchester City fans at the Etihad Stadium, and how you should never go outside in the dark, even in the dead of winter, even if it's just a little bit cold outside. We finish the episode by talking about the Cold War and how the cold makes you shiver, which makes me think of war and how cold it must be in the old days, when people died of frostbite and hypothermia in the early days of World War II, when the Russians and the Finns were fighting against the Russians in the winter, and the Russians were dying from frostbite, it must have been freezing cold. We finish off with a short story about a guy named Andrew, who is in love with his own brother, Marcel, who has been diagnosed with ASD and has been living in the city of London, and he s trying to find his place in the world. We hope you enjoy this episode and enjoy it as much as we did making it through the snow, because it's cold out there! xoxo, Andrew xxx (p.S.

00:02:30.000The Carpathia? Whichever ship rescued the Titanic survivors, everybody who survived who was pulled from the icy water had one thing in common.
00:05:37.000You wouldn't believe that. So you're on a snowmobile with wind in your face.
00:05:40.000It's freezing. And I can never be out in the cold without for some reason thinking of war.
00:05:47.000Especially the Russo-Finno War, where the Russians and the Finnish were fighting in the early stages of World War II. There's so many people who've died of frostbite, and when the Finns or the Russians are dying of frostbite, it must be cold.
00:05:59.000But basically all of World War II, even the current war in Ukraine-Russia right now, you can't just light a campfire because a drone's gonna blow you up.
00:06:06.000So imagine sitting there in a ditch, freezing cold, too cold to even pull the trigger on your gun, dreaming of the day you get to go home because some politician decided to send you to die for a war that you don't even truly understand, shivering, hoping for nothing more than a hot meal.
00:06:23.000And then you hear some feminists say, life's harder for a girl, I have to get hair extensions.
00:06:31.000So yeah, cold reminds me of war, and it makes me glad I'm not in those type of wars, and I'm only in a different type of war, because although I am fighting the Matrix for humanity and for the soul...
00:06:42.000souls of the young men of Earth, at least I have heating.
00:09:59.000Top G. Remember when you were a kid and you badly wanted a Capri Sun?
00:10:05.000Everyone's been through that series of events.
00:10:08.000Everyone's lived that story where you're a kid and you get a Capri Sun and you're super happy.
00:10:11.000Or you go over to your friend's house and they have Capri Suns in the fridge because their parents were rich and your parents made you drink government juice, otherwise known as tap water.
00:10:19.000And they managed to have like Capri Suns and Pringles in the cupboard.
00:10:23.000And you'd have that one friend who was rich and you're like, why don't you just eat all this stuff all the time?
00:10:27.000He's like, oh, I don't really want it.
00:10:28.000I'm like, what do you mean you don't want it? It's there in the cupboard.
00:10:30.000You can just grab it. My house had nothing.
00:10:36.000We had enough food for my mom to prepare and cook a meal.
00:10:39.000You couldn't touch any ingredient because that's all that existed.
00:10:41.000And if you touch anything, you got whooped.
00:10:43.000I remember one of my friends used to have a whole fridge full of Capri Suns and he barely drank them because he was a spoiled little white boy.
00:10:50.000Anyway, I remember thinking when I was a child, when I grow up, I'm going to drink Capri Suns all the time.
00:10:55.000And then I grew up and became a billionaire!
00:11:19.000Because even though perhaps the straw is...
00:11:24.000Perhaps a Capri Sun is the most straw intensive drink you can possibly buy.
00:11:31.000There are so many other drinks you can buy where the straw is not essential.
00:11:35.000Not only for consumption, but to access the product.
00:11:39.000The straw is the most essential point of a Capri Sun because without it you can't get to the Capri Sun and you cannot consume the Capri Sun.
