Wrong Bug Podcast.
0:04
It's fun podcast.
0:10
And hey, boys and girls, Uncle
0:12
Ron's back in town and I
0:14
hope that couch is a pullout because
0:17
he's gonna crash here for a while. We're
0:19
back for season three. That's right. My
0:22
heart tried to get us off the air.
0:26
They said we were getting too political. But
0:28
the fans out there, that's right, you people,
0:31
they protested. You guys did to get
0:33
us back in the studio. You rioted,
0:35
You took days off from work to
0:37
storm the streets. You screamed,
0:40
you cried, and now we're here. We're actually
0:42
just renewed for a third season. We
0:44
talked to my heart, we negotiated another
0:47
contract and here we are. So there was just
0:49
for our listeners, there was no crisis. Well
0:52
okay, that's the cliff Notes version,
0:54
which completely discounts
0:56
the people's revolution. But yes, uh
0:59
please welcome back my co host Carolina.
1:02
Everyone, let's hear it for Carolina. Okay,
1:10
yeah, thank you, thank you.
1:13
Happy to be back, happy to be back, and I'm happy
1:15
to have you back. I am, and I do
1:17
not regret for a second that I chose
1:19
you as my co host again, despite
1:22
our mostly contentious relationship.
1:25
Wait, so you don't regret bringing me
1:27
back, or you do. I do.
1:32
Yes, I don't very
1:35
happy you're here, and we're
1:38
definitely not waiting
1:40
to hear on Angie Harmon's availability.
1:45
Wait what, it's just we
1:49
we reached out to her to see if
1:51
she could. It doesn't matter, Okay, I'm
1:53
just going to pretend it didn't hear that you said
1:55
to me that you had an announcement for season three.
1:57
Yes, this maybe the season
2:00
that I find el you
2:02
v love. That's
2:05
right. I don't know. I don't want to give it away, but
2:08
yeah, I am tired of making
2:10
love too many women, balancing schedules,
2:12
trying to remember fifteen names and even
2:15
more phone numbers. And I can't even
2:17
enjoy a dinner party with some of my closest male
2:19
friends without having one of their wives
2:22
jump me in the laund room and put me
2:24
in their hamper. Okay, I don't know if that's sexual
2:26
or like a hostage situation.
2:28
I also haven't had time to eat. Yep,
2:31
you guessed it. Too much love making, too
2:33
much, too much kissing, you know. And
2:36
I don't like to eat big meals before love making.
2:38
I think that's common when I'm at Chipotle
2:41
gearing up for a time with one of my dates, I
2:43
usually turned to a burrito bowl
2:45
instead of just a burrito. Taking
2:48
the tortilla out is my diet secret.
2:50
Interesting. Yes, I've dropped fifteen pounds
2:52
scaredline from switching to the Chippotle burrita
2:55
bowl. It still has like sour cream and avocado,
2:57
and so my goal for this season is
3:00
to lose weight with Chipotle's
3:02
burrito bold diet and
3:05
defined love. Well, that might be harder
3:07
than you expect. Well, it's simple.
3:09
I'd like to meet two nice women
3:11
and start a relationship with him. Okay,
3:14
I want no more drama. Mary J. Blige,
3:16
I mean unless you're into polyamory.
3:19
What what what was that word, Mama's
3:21
spaghetti. No, I said polyamory.
3:24
Oh sorry, I thought we were going to talk about Eminem's
3:27
performance at the Oscars, which was honestly
3:30
completely expected. I predicted
3:32
it. So polyamory is when you're
3:34
romantically involved with multiple people at
3:36
once. It's a state or a philosophy.
3:40
Carolina, I hate to break it to you, but that's called
3:42
dating. Well, no, it's different.
3:44
Some polyamorousts are married and date
3:47
people on the side. That's just called marriage.
3:49
Okay, Well, all I'm saying is, maybe find a
3:51
nice lady who you respect and admire
3:54
and reach out to her, and then and then see
3:56
what happens. Before you know,
3:58
you try to introduce her to someone else you're dating.
4:01
That's good, that's real good.
4:03
Hide them from each other, honest
4:06
to that. Then after a few months, maybe
4:08
during a romantic outing, reveal
4:11
that there is someone else. No, no, that's
4:13
not what I'm trying to say. In the meantime,
4:16
our guest today is my new girlfriend,
4:18
Lisa. No. No,
4:20
we're going to interview Jonathan Franz and today,
4:22
the novelist. It took me like six
4:25
months to schedule. I canceled him. Yeah,
4:27
last night I called his house at eleven
4:29
PM and I said, it's not gonna happen
4:32
Johnny, and I hung up. Run
4:35
why would you do that? I'll tell you why.
4:37
I recently started finding outer space
4:40
interesting. I've I've recently heard
4:42
that space last forever.
4:45
Think about that. Also, that
4:47
we are on a round blue,
4:50
greenish white.
4:53
Oh, how would you describe our Earth, Carolina? It's
4:56
a planet, No, something more catchy, you
4:58
know, modern vernacular. Earth is
5:00
the planet we live on. Okay, why
5:02
don't you work on that. Today's episode
5:05
is on outer space? Do
5:07
we have too much of it? How
5:09
much should it cost? How
5:11
high is it? But also how low
5:13
is it? And later we'll be meeting with
5:15
an astronaut. So I don't get the connection
5:18
between this and your love life. And the guest
5:20
is my girlfriend, Lisa, and
5:22
she's an astronaut. She's an astronaut,
5:25
full on astronaut. Where did you meet an astronaut?
5:27
She happens to have studied
5:30
at the NASA Training Facility in
5:32
Houston, Texas, where
5:35
she completed candidate training in two
5:37
thousand fourteen. And guess
5:39
what Caroline, out of a class of eighty applicants
5:42
guests who graduated top of her class?
5:45
She did. She graduated top
5:47
of her class. She even served
5:49
as a flight engineer on Expedition
5:52
three seven two to nine, six
5:55
four eight, five eleven
5:57
DASH Alpha Bravo Dash
6:00
E four seven DASH Jim and
6:02
I I was just curious, you want to
6:04
look that up just to double check my
6:06
work? Yeah, and that was that
6:08
was an expedition to guess where the
6:11
space station outer space? So
6:13
she's an astronaut. I wasn't happy
6:15
to get a copy of her driver's license if you want to check
6:18
that too. I'm
6:20
just curious, where did you meet
6:22
an astronaut? Where did I meet an astronaut?
6:26
My girlfriend Lisa? Yeah, where did
6:28
you meet her? In a shop?
6:31
In the shop, Yes,
6:33
in a shop in a strip
6:36
mall got it? You want me to draw
6:38
you a map. I'm not trying to give you the third
6:40
degree or anything. I really thought I was asking a
6:42
simple question. Don't you mean the fifth
6:44
degree? No, it's the third
6:46
degree. I think you might be thinking of the
6:48
fifth element. Oh
6:53
yep, that's
6:55
what I was thinking of. Yes,
6:57
okay. Anyway, so after you guys met in the shop,
7:00
Yes, then we went on one
7:02
date, just one. I'm
7:06
not a cat, so I
7:08
didn't try to, you know, sleep with her.
7:11
No, no, no, I
7:13
didn't try to pay for dinner. I
7:16
didn't pay for dinner. I didn't want to offend her.
7:19
She said, I think we can
7:21
both get this. That's
7:23
really generous of her. And then I winked
7:25
at her and I said, how about I get it
7:28
next time? You know, she
7:30
works for NASA, so she's pulling
7:32
down some major coin and
7:34
I'm I'm stuck in the
7:36
USS bunker with you after
7:40
day. Well, it's sinking
7:42
to the bottom of the ocean. I
7:45
might be dramatic, but just
7:49
bolt us in, send us
7:51
to our deaths. Anyway,
7:53
she left our way to a great tip, which led
7:55
me to believe that I may be dating
7:57
a very classy astrona lady.
8:01
So, since she paid for this meal, where are
8:03
you going to take her next? Oh? God? Great
8:05
question is is dippin' dots
8:07
still around? That's
8:09
cheap right? Well? Yeah, I mean
8:12
it's like a space ice cream, you know.
8:15
Yeah, you know what, give me a reservation for
8:17
eight pm tomorrow night at
8:20
the closest dippin Dots. So
8:23
for today, do you have any specific questions
8:25
about space? You want to ask her? For
8:28
our listeners? Yeah? Yeah, of course
8:30
yes. I wrote a few of them
8:32
down on this legal
8:35
pad here. Let me see, yes,
8:38
all right, Um,
8:41
what does NASSA stand for?
8:43
Oh that's a good. Well, that's a great question. I
8:46
actually know what it stands for. It stands for the National
8:48
Yeah, I think I'll ask the astronaut. But thanks,
8:52
it's this card. I
8:55
noticed that you have blue
8:57
bags under your eyes. You look so
9:00
tired. Do you think you have an iron deficiency?
9:02
Is this a real question? You're gonna you can't ask her
9:04
that. Yeah, well, I'm interested to hear more about
9:07
that because I have an iron deficiency,
9:09
and I think a lot of our listeners have
9:12
hired deficiencies. Nothing wrong
9:14
with that. You should never tell a woman she looks tired,
9:17
well, what am I supposed to say when she's
9:19
good? I mean that's like saying you should never
9:21
tell a woman
9:23
with a large stomach that they look pregnant.
9:26
You should never tell a woman with large You shouldn't
9:29
like never ever. Okay,
9:32
you I have seen you, because you know me, I'm
9:34
an open book. I always walk in,
9:37
you know, scour the room. Excuse
9:41
me, pregnant six months? Let
9:43
me guess I've personally
9:46
seen you do this, or you look like you're
9:48
having twins. Still,
9:50
Yeah, you've got to be really careful. I think people appreciate
9:53
the odesty kind of address
9:55
the elephant in the room. So
9:58
read the next she's oh
10:01
my god, Ron, you can't ask her these questions.
10:03
What goes on down there? When you're all the way
10:05
up there, you've only been on one day?
10:08
Shut up, shut up. She's here, she's here.
10:11
Look look out the window. Oh my
10:13
god, Wow, she's so pretty.
10:15
She really is? Does she know she's here super
10:17
early. Alright, gotta get ready,
10:19
pass me my comb. Okay, you know
10:22
your hair looks great. Wait,
10:24
oh my gosh, now it looks really good. You really
10:27
do know how to grown. And she'd probably
10:29
get my pants on. You're not wearing
10:31
pants when my legs are sitting under the
10:33
table. No, do you wear shoes
10:35
to bed? God, I'm
10:37
a little jittery. I
10:39
just want a nice step mom for my son.
10:42
You literally never talked about your son. Oh,
10:46
Lisa, Hey, Hi, why
10:49
do you go ahead and have a seat right there? Welcome,
10:52
Welcome to the party. I am Carolina
10:54
co host. Nice to meet you. Say
10:57
you're the one.
11:03
Yeah, okay,
11:08
okay, let's take a commercial break. We'll be right
11:10
back with the Ron Burgundy Podcast.
11:13
My astronaut girlfriend Lisa needs
11:15
a kiss, and Carolina is
11:17
getting a little cranky. Not Welcome
11:33
back to the Ron Burgundy Podcast. Today's
11:36
episode is on outer space.
11:39
Neil Armstrong, Sandra
11:41
Bullock, Buzz Aldrin,
11:44
Kevin Bacon. These are some of
11:46
the most famous astronauts of all
11:48
time. Well, I think there's some confusion because
11:50
Kevin Bacon played an astronaut in a
11:52
movie, so did Sandra boul look in a different
11:55
movie. Yes, and they're famous.
11:58
Yeah, okay, I see weak man. Let's
12:00
just move on. But today I am joined by Lisa,
12:03
my girlfriend, who is out
12:05
of this world cool. She's
12:07
been in outer space. Ron,
12:09
we've been on one date. One.
12:12
I mean, that doesn't really make his boyfriend and girlfriend
12:14
yet? Ron? Why are you shuffling in your seat
12:17
like that? Are you scooting? Are you
12:19
excited? I'm not. I have
12:21
to pee. I got excited
12:23
and held it. Okay, Ron, just
12:25
go pee? Okay, thanks,
12:28
we can cut this. Hi,
12:35
Hi, thanks, thank you so much for
12:37
doing this. It's so amazing to meet an
12:40
actual astronaut. Thanks. Yeah, it's it's awesome.
12:42
How's it going with Ron? He's so
12:44
much better than my ex? Oh?
12:48
Good to year? Is that an over? Sure? No? No,
12:50
that's totally fine. Yeah he was a psycho.
12:52
I almost killed him. Girl
12:56
talk, girl talk?
12:59
What were you guys talking about? Where you buy
13:01
your wigs? Ron?
13:07
What were you going to say? What about? Just now?
13:09
You were talking about your ex? And what? What? Sorry?
13:13
Never mind? Okay, Ron, why don't you ask Lisa
13:15
one of your space questions? Oh?
13:18
Sure, yes, good idea?
13:20
Okay, Lisa, who
13:23
shot the moon landing, Stanley
13:25
Kubrick or the director mcg no
13:29
ron that was real. The
13:32
moon landing was real. It's
13:34
a common conspiracy theory. Um,
13:36
Lisa, I want to ask you. I'm curious about floating
13:38
water in space. Is that a real phenomenon?
13:40
Yes, that's actually one of my favorite tidbits. Astronomers
13:43
have found a massive water vapor cloud which holds
13:46
one and forty trillion times the
13:48
massive water in the Earth's oceans. It's
13:50
about ten billion light years
13:52
away. Sounds like how long it takes Carolina
13:54
to grab me a coffee in billion
13:57
light years? Okay, yeah,
14:00
Bixter, Well, at least he's not a cheater. What
14:03
the only thing I've ever cheated on is
14:05
my diet? Sorry, he
14:09
was a cheater, so I'm sorry.
14:12
Ah,
14:15
Okay, it's okay. People have you
14:17
don't have to be a first boyfriend. Okay,
14:22
let's let
14:24
me just take a knee here for a second. Just
14:30
let this moment pass. Didn't
14:34
anticipate that piece of informacione
14:39
than Um.
14:42
All right, you know what, do you actually have coffee
14:44
here? Yeah? Okay, yeah we do. If you just
14:46
leave the room and there's a pod thing, if you just make
14:48
a right, Okay, great? Thanks? Who
14:55
are a bit of a gut punch. I'm
14:58
not gonna lie to you U. But
15:00
hey, other than that, what do you think?
15:03
Right? She's great? Do you
15:05
want her to be your mommy? Know
15:08
what? No, she's not going to be my mommy.
15:11
If you guys date, no, I know. But
15:13
but if you could choose a new mommy,
15:16
wouldn't you want it to be her? Lisa the
15:18
astronaut? That astronaut. No, she
15:20
seems a little dark, maybe a little um
15:23
obsessed with her ax? No, no,
15:25
no, I believe me. Tell me about a girlfriend.
15:28
But I just you know, I tuned her out when she starts
15:31
talking about him. That's what I was doing there at least
15:36
fresh hot coffee. Oh yeah,
15:39
delicious. So any more space questions?
15:42
How was your experience up
15:44
there? You know, when you when you
15:46
went in your your shiny rocket
15:48
ship? Did
15:52
something? Did something happen? Lisa?
15:54
Nothing? No, everything's
15:56
fine. I don't have to pee either either.
16:02
You're cookie. Gotta
16:04
love you? Sorry? Can you just tell me
16:06
what happened with your ex? Carolina? Why
16:08
is wrong with you? Where
16:11
is that music coming from my chest?
16:13
I'm so sorry, guys, that's actually my daughter playing
16:16
Magilla. Don't. I'm
16:18
sorry. Oh that's okay. She sounds great.
16:20
Nick, You've got a talented kid. I'm leaving.
16:22
You make me sick. Carolina, what
16:24
Lisa? I warned you about this? Why
16:27
are you acting so surprised? I said. Everyone at
16:29
the studio is nice, but Carolina
16:31
may try to pry into your personal life,
16:34
and she'll make you sick. I'm sorry. There were just
16:36
so many teases about your
16:38
past. It just felt like you wanted to talk about.
16:40
Yes, I was an astronaut, a brilliant astronaut,
16:43
the likes of which you've never seen. But while
16:45
I was up there looking at the moon and
16:47
the planets and all that, my husband
16:49
was cheating on me. I'm so sorry.
16:51
So when I found out, I did what any normal woman
16:53
would do. Are you the astronaut who wore the diapers?
16:56
I bought a wig and a trench coat and disguised
16:58
myself sexiest staff And then I
17:00
put on my Space diapers and
17:03
I drove nine miles before getting pulled over
17:05
by authorities. And I
17:07
never thought i'd find love again. And then you
17:09
met me. No, I met this other
17:11
guy who was great, but he broke
17:13
up with me when he saw my space diapers. And
17:16
then Ron and I met at the silver ware shop and it just felt
17:18
right. Yeah. I was at the silver ware
17:21
shop looking for an oyster
17:23
fork. It's what Baxter
17:25
uses to eat spaghetti. Got it.
17:28
It's now becoming clear to me that this is never
17:30
going to work out. Hold hold on, hold on, listen.
17:32
This makes sound crazy, but I don't judge
17:34
a thing. Just so you know, Lisa, I mean, we've
17:37
we've all taken a road trip
17:39
in a diaper seeking
17:41
revenge. Oh no, I haven't done that.
17:43
I've never done that. Okay, well hold on. Let me clarify
17:45
that people who date regularly have got
17:48
it, Lisa, Can I ask, I'm sorry to
17:50
ask, are you wearing a diaper right now? What
17:55
do you think?
17:59
All right, she's aating in her shorts. I
18:01
can hear it dripping onto the carpet.
18:05
Yep, I recognize your in shorts anywhere.
18:08
So you're not wearing a diaper. We got it? Nick,
18:10
can we cut to a commercial and we'll be right
18:12
back. Welcome
18:22
back to the Ron Burgundy Podcast. I
18:25
honestly think today went very well.
18:27
You do a great normal start
18:30
to season three. Nothing weird
18:32
happened, and I may have found
18:35
love. I truly think that I'm
18:37
I am not delusional. I am what
18:39
they call in the medical profession,
18:42
a stable genius. I'm sorry
18:44
you think today went well, Yes, I
18:47
really do. You met my girlfriend and
18:49
we both got to know a little
18:52
more about her. It was easy, peasy.
18:54
I don't think she ever was your girlfriend.
18:56
I'm going to be honest with you, and
18:59
I think if she was, I think I think it's over.
19:01
I think I just lost your train of thought.
19:03
So when security was carrying her out right,
19:06
she screamed, and I repeat, she
19:09
screamed, never contact me again.
19:12
Go to a different silver ware shop.
19:14
Well that is crazy. That is
19:16
crazy because there is one good silverware
19:19
shop in all of San Diego, and
19:21
that's fork It up right on the corner
19:23
of Bernwood Street. So if
19:25
she thinks I'm going anywhere else, she's really
19:28
messed up. Yeah, she
19:30
she is. Listen, If she doesn't want
19:32
to see me again, that that may be
19:35
a red flag for me. I may
19:37
have to break up with her, you know what. You
19:39
may have to call her and tell her. I
19:41
think we should take some time off. Do
19:44
you mind, You don't mind? Yeah,
19:47
I'll handle it. Oh my goodness, that
19:49
would be great. And
19:52
I still believe season three will
19:54
be this season I find love. Sure
19:58
you don't believe that, No I do. I
20:01
do you? You
20:04
don't look like you believe it. But
20:06
but then again, your face always looks sort
20:08
of grimacing like that, like you like
20:11
you just saw something horrible, like two feral
20:14
dogs fighting over a toddler's
20:17
dress. You my face is completely
20:19
neutral anyway. If I
20:21
don't find love this season, no,
20:24
I'll find love. Absolutely, it'll
20:26
happen. I can't believe I doubted
20:28
myself even for a second. Just please don't
20:30
fall in love with all of our guests.
20:33
You know what now, I
20:36
I won't fall in love with any of our
20:38
guests. These will be women in the
20:40
outside world, women I meet
20:42
in silverware shops, mirror
20:45
stores, outside by
20:47
that truck that sells black market ivory
20:49
combs. I don't want to know about that. And then I'll
20:52
bring them into the studio so the audience can
20:54
go on this ride with me. And I won't
20:56
bring someone in every week. That's the mistake
20:58
I made today. But this season and I
21:00
will meet the woman I am going
21:02
to marry In the meantime. I'd love
21:04
if we could focus on our episodes topic.
21:07
Well, I think we learned a lot about
21:09
outer space today, you do. I mean
21:11
we didn't even talk about stars or you
21:13
know the controversy over Pluto. I'm still speaking,
21:16
thank you. Okay. To learn more about
21:18
space, please visit Google
21:20
dot com and type in a question. That's
21:23
the website I used to learn more about space.
21:25
You can type in other stuff too. They're
21:28
the best. They're absolutely the best. They read
21:30
a first class operation there. Or
21:33
you can also watch the movie
21:36
Rocket Man. I think
21:38
that's the Elton John biopic starring
21:41
Taran ed Edgerton. Okay,
21:44
The Edge nicknamed
21:46
The Edge. I think that movie came out
21:49
last year in May May.
21:52
I sure did. Do you have a promo
21:55
deal with them, tarn Edgerson.
21:58
Rocketman brought to you by Paramount Pictures
22:01
Viacom Company. You really should include us
22:03
all in those sales. You can't
22:05
do under the table. One. Whenever I go to see a movie,
22:07
I see a movie by Paramount Pictures. Dune,
22:10
Dune, Dune, Dun Dune, Paramount
22:14
number one in movie makings. It's rocket
22:18

I love our listeners. I love you,
22:47
But do you mean it the way I mean it? Well, that's
22:49
hard to say. I don't know. I
22:52
saw you once say I love you too,
22:54
because I get a get a mental
22:56
image of every single one of our
22:58
listeners when I say I love you, HM,
23:03
all the all the cartoon faces. When
23:05
I have a mental limit, when I picture all
23:07
of our listeners, it's pretty much
23:09
the cast of Peanuts. Peanuts
23:12
cartoons. Yeah,
23:14
I can see that. Well, then I love you. I'm
