Deep dives
Skillful Amphibian Identification
Jordan, a herpetologist, showcased her expertise in identifying frog species based on their croaks. Although she initially struggled with some obscure frog calls like Martin's Toadlet and Waters Daily Frog, she redeemed herself by correctly identifying the quacking frog from WA and a toadlet species. Her final flourish with the Northern Territory toadlet displayed a 4 out of 5 success rate, proving her remarkable skill and knowledge in frog identification.
Driving Familiarity Breeds Speed
The podcast delves into the theory that familiarity enhances speed, using examples like acing driveway entrances with precision due to repeated practice. The hosts share humorous anecdotes about driving familiarity, such as mastering tight spots and predicting how long someone has lived in a place based on their parking finesse.
Odd Car Wash Behavior
An amusing observation is made about the frantic gestures and urgent signaling by a car wash attendant at a crystal car wash near the speaker's residence. The exaggerated speed at which the attendant waves cars forward to the entrance, transitioning to a sudden 'stop' command, leads to a comedic yet mismatched urgency in the car wash process.
Security Check Speed
The discussion shifts to the brisk pace of security checks at airports, drawing parallels to the car wash attendant's hurried gestures. The experience of moving through airport security, where the pace oscillates between rushed 'come on' prompts to abrupt 'stop' commands, mirrors the familiar yet hurried nature of repetitive processes.
A famous surfer is influencing Hamish's Instagram algorithm and Hamish doesn't understand why. A brotherly feud takes place on a new edition of Chit Chat Champions. Hamish is wondering if he technically counts as a university alumni when he never graduated, and Andy had his first facial. Plus, Jordann says she can guess the croak of any frog... so how does her claim stack up when put to the test?
