In this DDYH LITE episode, the dudes put on their fedoras and grab their whips because this episode is all about treasure hunting. This isn’t some fake story the dudes cooked up. This is a real-life, honest-to-God treasure hunt that Andy has stumbled upon, and everyone is invited to join us.
WE’RE GOING TO STEAL THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE! No, wait… we’re actually going to go find $2 million in the Rocky Mountains. Then we can have some delicious Rocky Mountain Oysters!
Dude, did you hear?
We’re drinking Bud Light Platinum – the only light beer that has actual precious metals in it. _//NOTWHATYOUTHOUGHTITWASAHAHA595
Quickdraws include Thomas Jefferson’s insane pet, a Chinese solar farm that is way too cute, Snapple’s throne of lies, a new emoji from Netflix and an accidental murder on YouTube.
The main story for this episode comes from Andy, who stumbled upon a real-life ongoing treasure hunt. Forrest Fenn (as portrayed by John Boyega?), a treasure hunter from New Mexico who is now in poor health and old age, has hidden the best of his findings (worth $2 million) in a chest somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. If you find the chest, it’s yours! Just follow the clues in the poem below.
The dudes also share their Top 5 Treasure Hunting Movies to help you get in the mood. Will Dave and Andy once again have the same #1?
Forrest Fenn’s poem:
As I have gone alone in there
And with my treasures bold,
I can keep my secret where,
And hint of riches new and old.
Begin it where warm waters halt
And take it in the canyon down,
Not far, but too far to walk.
Put in below the home of Brown.
From there it's no place for the meek,
The end is ever drawing nigh;
There'll be no paddle up your creek,
Just heavy loads and water high.
If you've been wise and found the blaze,
Look quickly down, your quest to cease,
But tarry scant with marvel gaze,
Just take the chest and go in peace.
So why is it that I must go
And leave my trove for all to seek?
The answers I already know,
I've done it tired, and now I'm weak.
So hear me all and listen good,
Your effort will be worth the cold.
If you are brave and in the wood
I give you title to the gold.
