Waiting 4 Wrath - Episode 226 - The One Where The Crew Decodes Aaron's Speak & Spell

In This Week’s Show, episode 226, Aaron only contributes this sesquipedalian introduction for Shea, so enjoy the schadenfreude of Steve’s floccinaucinihilipilification…

* Sesqui-pedalian (ses-kwi-pi-dey-lee-uh n) - characterized by the use of long words,

* Floccinaucinihilipilification (flok-suh-naw-suh-nahy-hil-ul-pil-uh-fi-key-shun n)- act or habit of estimating something as worthless… (mainly encountered as one of the longest words in English)

Now, grab a beer and help us test the god hypothesis — because, while Ceres (series)(the Roman counterpart of Demeter) hasn’t struck us down yet, we are trying her patience!

Shea’s Life Lesson

This week I learned you can't buy hot pockets, you can only buy cold pockets.you have to supply the heat yourself! Don't believe the lies.

Jenn’s Actual Lesson

Did you know the first temple of Ceres at Rome was vowed by the dictator A. Postumius Albinus, in 496 BCE, for the purpose of averting a famine with which Rome was threatened during a war with the Latins? No word if JK Rowling sued him for naming rights.

But before we get to all that, let’s have a beer!

This Week’s Beer

First of all, let's clear something up.

The band in the Cantina is called the Modal Nodes. But we're not VH1, so I'll just say they're fantastic Jizz players from Birth, who I assume, would also be pretty pissed at Chick-fil-a.

by RexTuesday on

RATING: ★★★★★

Despite a huge section of this show being devoted to beer reviews, I love every minute of it because of every members sense of humor and the wonderful dynamic between the hilarious hosts. Jenn’€™s still the best but I love all y’€™all!

Nice email from Robert Ray of the Original Motto project all the way from Antarctica! Glad you know have WiFi and it was great to hear from you.

Voicemail from Amanda!

Sorry, patrons, due to some scheduling difficulties we’re gonna be a little late with 4 More Beers, but I’ve brought a doctor’s note.

Cows need love too. Launched last month, a new tool is helping farmers find love for their flock. The new app, called Tudder, directs you to a page on the SellMyLivestock website where they can browse more pictures and data about the animals before deciding whether to buy.

“Matching livestock online is even easier than it is to match humans because there’s a huge amount of data that sits behind these wonderful animals that predicts what their offspring will be,” said Doug Bairner, CEO of Hectare Agritech which runs SellMyLivestock.

Much like Tinder, the app shows a picture of the livestock, sorry clients, and farmers can use their phones to swipe right for yes and left for no. Provided is even valuable information on matters like milk yield and protein content, or calving potential, much more thorough than its human equivalent.

A cattle farmer and Tudder user James Bridger said it eases transport stress for animals and may rival traditional markets.

“You’ve got all this data of its background and everything which if you’re at a market you might not have had the time to go through for every single random animal,
