Speaker 1: Good news. Remember that piece of gum they swallowed seven
Speaker 1: years ago. Yeah, well it's finally been enough time that
Speaker 1: it's passed through your digestive system. I can't wait to
Speaker 1: take a tuozy today. I mean, I think that's a
Speaker 1: wive's tale. But okay, it's just a tall tale. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not actually true. Literally will pass it, just like all
Speaker 1: of the food. You're not alone, Jo, A lot of
Speaker 1: people believe that one is true true, and that's why
Speaker 1: a recent survey found the top ten dumbest myths that
Speaker 1: a lot of people actually believe. We're starting off strong, Jeffrey.
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out how stupid the people in this
Speaker 1: room are when we go over them. Let's get right
Speaker 1: into these. Number ten. There's a big dramatic reading of
Speaker 1: a person's will with everyone in the family sat together
Speaker 1: in one room. Okay, that doesn't actually happen. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: a state lawyers say that may have happened like one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty years ago, but in reality now they
Speaker 1: just mail everyone a copy if they want to see
Speaker 1: the will. So that's how the wealthy people do it.
Speaker 1: I've never gotten any inheritance ever. Room, my whole family's alive,
Speaker 1: so okay, it should be a brassy for thest Sometimes.
Speaker 1: Number nine black belts have to register their fists as weapons.
Speaker 1: Why whatever. I thought it was a joke, but some
Speaker 1: people think that's real. It's kind of funny. Okay, this one,
Speaker 1: I'll say. I believe number eight MSG is worse for
Speaker 1: you than table salt. I know it's totally because there
Speaker 1: was the whole thing where like all of like the
Speaker 1: Chinese restaurants had to suddenly announce that they weren't going
Speaker 1: to use MSG anymore, and I thought it was dangerous.
Speaker 1: It's so good flavor. One doctor one time wrote a
Speaker 1: bad review and you they linked it to disease or
Speaker 1: shed and it's not at all. It's not. It has
Speaker 1: less sodium in it than regular salt does, but like
Speaker 1: just as much flavor, and research or say it can
Speaker 1: actually help you diet more easily. Give me that, just
Speaker 1: spoonfuls of it. Don't even need to put it on. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Number seven, if you drop a penny off of a skyscraper,
Speaker 1: it'll eventually fall fast enough to kill someone. This is true.
Speaker 1: This is true. It's not true. In reality. It hits
Speaker 1: terminal velocity. It maxes out at thirty miles per hour
Speaker 1: because it's so tiny. They say, if it hits someone,
Speaker 1: it would just feel like being flicked in the forehead.
Speaker 1: Oh oh wow here on the fifth floor, is there
Speaker 1: anywhere we could throw some pennies off? Number six. Humans
Speaker 1: only use ten percent of their brain. It's kind of
Speaker 1: like saying we only use thirty percent of a traffic light. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just not It just doesn't make sense your yeah, all, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: just at different times and for different things, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're talking about the dumbest myths that some people actually
Speaker 1: believe are true to this day. Number five. At nighttime,
Speaker 1: flashing your headlights to alert another car that their lights
Speaker 1: are off is part of a gang initiation. Oh, my
Speaker 1: husband is always concerned. I'm like, no, we're not gonna
Speaker 1: get shot. I'm just telling these people their brights are on, dude. Well,
Speaker 1: not in the wealthy parts of town. I'm sorry. Where
Speaker 1: I grew up with not wealthy. And it's also used
Speaker 1: to warn people that there's a cop behind you. Yea,
Speaker 1: I never heard that one. Oh really, yeah, that's in
Speaker 1: the wealthy neighborhoods where you wouldn't know that. I've an
Speaker 1: end with the cops. Number four lie detectors actually detect lies. Oh,
Speaker 1: they just detect heart rate. What they actually do is
Speaker 1: record your stress responses. That show that if a person
Speaker 1: is anxious when they're at answering the questions, and that
Speaker 1: might hint that they may be lying. So I did
Speaker 1: a lie detect your test once? Did you pass? Pass?
Speaker 1: It was like a show. It was a show style,
Speaker 1: But the whole thing makes you super nervous, Like the
Speaker 1: guy is super serious and I'm just answering stupid questions
Speaker 1: for a radio show. I can't imagine because in my head,
Speaker 1: I'm like, am I gonna sound like I'm lying? Because
Speaker 1: I'm not lying, I'm telling Number three, eating carrots helps
Speaker 1: you see better in the dark. Ye is it beta
Speaker 1: carroting good for vision? Though they say no, general not
Speaker 1: really Okay, well all the time, it's sad, really yeah,
Speaker 1: throw the carrots away. No wonder, I've never been able
Speaker 1: to get rid of these glasses keeps getting worse. Number two,
Speaker 1: Shaving makes your hair grow back thicker. That is true,
Speaker 1: though I swear it is. They say it's not true.
Speaker 1: How would your hair become thicker? Because even like your hair,
Speaker 1: when you get a haircut, your hair stylist will cut
Speaker 1: your hair a little bit because they say it helps
Speaker 1: it grow back. I think for women it just happens
Speaker 1: when you're young, Like you shave your legs because you
Speaker 1: have like peach fuzz on there, and then eventually, like
Speaker 1: real puberty hits and you get real leg hair. I mean,
Speaker 1: you kept kill cutting it, it kept getting thicker and
Speaker 1: thicker and thicker. I feel like what women's armpits would
Speaker 1: look like get faster. I guess a lot of people
Speaker 1: believe that one and finally, the number one myth that
Speaker 1: people believed was true. It turns out it's not that
Speaker 1: you eat X number of spiders while you sleep every year.
Speaker 1: You don't think that they crawl in your mouth. They're
Speaker 1: saying it doesn't happen. They say, truth is that probably
Speaker 1: never happens. For a sleeping person to swallow just one
Speaker 1: live spider would require so many unlikely circumstances to go
Speaker 1: just perfectly right. I'm dreaming about food. Most people. Most
Speaker 1: people grind their teeth. You're just oh no, I'm trying
Speaker 1: umping out there, ump, I swallow, I do all of it.
Speaker 1: Those are my stomach too. Those are the dumbest myths
Speaker 1: debumped phone taps coming up right after this broken Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the morning, morning
