Oh, wait, no, I said laughing twice. Whatever. We were on the weekend. We were on the weekend. We were on the weekend. Because this is what we do on the weekend.

We're welcome to we were on the weekend. Baby Dennis is your host. And this is Baby Dennis' co-host. Baby Sook Dennis.

“This is the show where Baby Dennis had Baby Sook Dennis talk.”

What's going on? What's going on? And this is to Baby Dennis' favorite episodes. Take it out now. First up, baby Dennis.

What on actual earth is going on here? It's nothing, nothing, my touch. It sounded like you and Baby Sook Dennis were attempting to host my podcast. Oh, sorry. My and Reggie's podcast.

Baby Dennis was adding star power to Big Dennis's show. What star power? You're not famous, baby Dennis. You're home. Baby Dennis has been true to Quiz magazines.

Do me a thank you. What?

Baby Sook Dennis has 40 million followers on Sook Talk.

Laugh this stuff out. Oh, come on. Even in that we're true, which I don't think it is. This is my show. I'm sorry, my and Reggie's show.

And we are plenty famous enough to host it. Thank you very much. So back in your box now, both of you. Come on. This is so fun.

Here we go. I know. The nerve. Yeah, let's just move on with a Q&A segment. Alright, let's just get the old answering machine pulled up here.

Okay, here we go. Hi, you've reached Dennis from WeWow on the weekend. That's me. Do you have a question? Well, I do too.

Lots of them. And who's gonna answer all my questions? You? Probably not. But I guess I can answer yours.

Leave me a message. Bye, Dennis. Hi, ladies, ladies, ladies. Hi, Lizzy. I have a question for you.

Why you catch dirt? Oh, well, that's an easy one. Because they can't bark. Next question. What do you mean that's not a good answer?

Yeah, I guess I can say more. Well, cats can't bark and they can't move either. Or rivet. Or do whatever that elephant noises. So they perve.

And now, does that clear things up Reggie? Ha ha ha ha. Well, agreed to disagree. Next question. My name is Isaiah and I'm from Crompton, Strode Island.

Hi, Isaiah.

“My question is if Dennis knows how to play text text too?”

Of course I know how to play tick-tacto. Sure, we can play a quick game right now. Okay, here are my tick-tacts. And here are my toes. How please?

They don't smell that bad. Reggie, stop being a bad sport and pick.

Tick-tacto-tose.

What do you mean that's not how the game works?

Well, maybe I just play a different version of it. A better version. Whatever. Next question. Hello, my name is Snoop and I have a vehicle for Dennis.

Hi, Robin. I love riddles. What you got? My riddle is, I have titties, but no towers. I have forest, but no trees.

I have meadows, but no flowers. Okay, I have cities, but no towers. Forest, but no trees. Meadows, but no flowers. Hmm.

This sounds tricky. Hmm.

“Yeah, I think I need to take my time with this one.”

You know, really think about it. In fact, maybe I should take notes and draw some diagrams and stuff. Here. Here we go. Exactly.

When one is presented with a riddle, one must be calm and collected.

Persistent and precise. Organize. You have to guess the answer in 20. 20. What?

It's a countdown. No! Harry, Harry, Harry, Harry. What is it? Cities, but no something.

Forest, but no trees. Magic, what's a meadow? A meadow. Like a farmer's field? Ooh, how many is most in all of that?

Five, two, with a man. Ah, a map. Yes, Reggie. Maps have meadows. Rubin says so.

Thanks for all your calls, everyone.

“If you've got a question for me, call and leave me a message.”

The number is 1, 8, 8, 7, wow, wow. That's 1, 8, 8, 8, 7, wow, wow. I just might answer your question on weewow on the weekend. Okay. That takes care of that.

All right. Next up is a little segment I like to call. Inside, tinker castodios. Ah, ah, ah. Inside, tinker castodios.

This is the part where we revisit an episode of one of my favorite tinker cast shows. And today we're listening to "Wow" in the world season three episode four called "The Cubic Scope" on "Wow" that poop. No, poop. I don't care how interesting the poop is.

It's still poop. Okay, fine. Just let me know when the poop parts coming. Okay, and I'll cover my ears. What?

The whole thing is poop parts. Okay, here we go. And blank. We will be right back. Grownups.

Oh, the males here. Yeah. It is maple syrup. Who would put this in the male? Ugh. I recognize those sticky finger prints anywhere.

Mindy. Hi, Rosie. Hey, did you get my invitation? Invitational. Got it.

Here. Let me try and fry that thing out of your hands. It's everywhere. Okay. On the count of three. One. Two.

Two. Two. Two. Ouch. Got it. Ugh. Gary the male. They said it'll be fun. They said.

No. You'll never be covered in maple syrup.

Okay. Now, to get this thing open. [coughing] [coughing] Okay. Let's see what this invitation says here.

Your presence is requested in Mindy's gingerbread bathroom. The crumbling house next door.

Chocolate milk and horse doves will be served.

Horse does this dish mean or does.

“PS. Mindy has something bonger balls to show you.”

Hey, Gary Rose. Did you read my invitation? Now a clock started like five minutes ago. I'm coming. I'm coming. Oh, hi, Dennis.

Did I hear someone say invitation? Should I go check my mailbox? Uh-huh. Sorry, Dennis. Did you know you're address? Oh, that's okay.

My address is Dennis' favorite. The house next door is Monty App. Mindy? Played up on this. Read the sign.

What? Let's see here. Ah, no dumping allowed. No, the other one. Oh, right.

Let's see here. This sign says, "Rage against the latrine. Party this way." Party?

It's a word play on the word party. Oh, all right. I get it. Okay. This must be the place. Uh-huh.

Guys, what's your game? It's Tom Riden. Make yourself at home? Mindy. Uh-huh. How many toilets are in this bathroom?

Wait, are those my clogs?

“The shoes I brought back from my trip to Amsterdam?”

What are they doing in your toilet? Clog in it up. Oh, hey, is that a tree growing out of that one? My toilet tree? In the spring, it's supposed to bear tiny toothbrushes.

Uh-huh. Can I interest you in any horror steps? Uh-huh. Don't you mean "or derves"? No.

I mean, "horstas"? See? Ah! I genetically engineered them by combining the DNA of a horse with the DNA of a duck.

Aren't they cute? I mean, white, flying horses. And people, what did you invite me over here for? Well, Guy Ross, I brought you here because we need to talk.

Okay. So, why didn't you just call me on the phone or stop by? You know, I do live right next door. I mean, we could have done this literally anywhere,

but you're bathroom. Well, that's the thing, Guy Ross. See, the bathroom is really the only place we can have this particular talk. And are you where are you going with this?

Well, you know how you're always saying

that toilet talk belongs in the bathroom? Yeah, I do say that to you multiple times a day. Well, this is one of those times. I'm not sure I follow. Guy Ross?

We need to talk about these. Ooh, dark chocolate truffles. Don't mind if I do. No, Guy Ross. Hey, no stopping me now.

Guy Ross, that's warm that poop. Warm that poop? Warm that poop.

“That's why I invited you here to my bathroom.”

We need to talk about it. And this is the only place where that would be appropriate. Maybe I don't know where you got this. Warm that poop from,

but I think it's safe to say you've been swindled. What? This poop is cubed, like, tiny brown blocks. Yeah, okay. Well, number one, I got this warm that poop

off the inner webs by zudeling poop cubes. You what? And for only $1. Plus $322 plus taxes plus shipping and handling this little back of wombat poops is all mine.

We certified authentic and imported from Australia. Wait a minute, Mindy. You spent $323 on poop? No? You did.

Mindy. And number two, this number two is supposed to be cubed. It's wombat poop. Okay, now I've been to Australia. And I've seen these for a little short-legged,

waddling marsupials with my own fore eyes.

But I've never seen any cubes left behind.

Well, neither did Patricia Yang from the Georgia Institute of Technology. Oh, I've heard of her. Isn't she that mechanical engineer who studies hydrodynamics or

the motion and action of fluids? Yeah, and not only that, but she specializes in bodily fluids of animals. Like blood, food traveling through the intestines. He probably barred.

Yeah, yeah, I got it. Anywho, when she first learned that wombat's do poop-cubit bricks, she did what any other good scientists would do and she asked the question.

Oh, why? No, actually, she asked if she could build a little poop igloo out of them. But then she asked the question, why?

Why?

Patricia Yang had stumbled upon a scientific mystery.

My favorite kind of mystery. So, what happened next? Oh, wait, wait, let me get my popcorn. What?

“Oh, um, um, oh, it's so good. Okay, now I'm ready. What happened next?”

Well, I could tell you, Guy Rose. Yeah? But, I'd rather show you. Uh, right, Jee! Mindy, Mindy, are you sure it's a good idea

to keep him in your house? I'm just a course I'm not sure it's a good idea to keep him in my house, Guy Rose. But it pays off the mortgage. He's the only one who knows how to clean up.

I'd look for his gutters. Oh, hmm. But you're right. From now on, we'll keep him in your house. My badge got a lot of fly ahead of us.

Hmm. Let's go, there, Rose, hop on. Where are we going, Mindy? Ah! I'll give you a few hints.

It's the smallest continent in the world. Australia.

“It's surrounded by the Indian and Pacific Ocean.”

Australia. It's famous for its beaches, kangaroos, and the Sydney Opera House. Mindy, you're talking about Australia. Ooh!

I'm sorry, Guy Rose. The correct answer is Australia. That's what I just said. Hey, Redge, put another shrimp on the barbie doll and get ready for take-off

because here we go! Hmm. Thanks for the ride, Redge. Whoa, looks like Redge's met as Matt. What in the...

Wow, he looks like Redge's met as Matt. What in the... Wow, he's up with that crazy looking ostrich. That's not an ostrich, Mindy. That's an emu.

Only the second largest living bird by height.

I'll say that thing's taller than you, Guy Rose. Ooh! It sounds like she's asking Redge for a ride. Wait, you speak for a moment.

“What were you saying that her wings are only there for decoration?”

And now she's bragging about how she can run like 30 miles an hour. Man, he's hopping on Redge's back. A bird riding another bird. What is happening? I took a knife!

Redge, don't forget to pick us up, later. Okay, so what in the world are we doing in Australia again? Oh, remember? We're here to explore a cubic poop mystery. Why do wombats poop and cubes? All right, so where do we begin?

Look behind you, Guy Rose. Welcome to the Poosium. The Poosium? Yeah, like museum only, it's full of poops. Anyhow, inside this Poosium is an immersive interactive exhibit on wombats poop.

Come on, we run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run. Hello there and welcome to the Poosium. Featuring our immersive interactive exhibit on the magic and mystery of wombats bowel movements. Two tickets, please? Thank you very much.

Now, please proceed to the bad chick. Oh, you do? Uh, excuse me, man. Please open your toolbox. Ah, are you sure you want me to do that?

Man, be let him inspect the adventure toolkits so we can enter the Poosium. You ask for it. Okay, everybody. Stand back.

What? Are these cats? Thank you. Enjoy your day at the Poosium. Okay, I'm supposed to say that to you.

So, looking at the map here,

it looks like our first stop is the wombat exhibit.

Oh, that must be it over there. Huh, how can you tell? Well, because it's a wombat structure, the size of a car wash. Looks like the entrance is the wombats open mouth. Huh, this is so low.

A giant building shaped like a wombat with a wide open mouth. That's here on the map that we're supposed to cover ourselves in grass and then enter through the mouth as a wombat food. What is this? Cover ourselves in grass?

Hey, anything for science, right? Anything for science? Okay, now stay still while I dump this barrel of grass all over us transforming us into delicious grassy wombat food. Ah, it's itchy.

Okay, let me just see here.

Oh, is supposed to be this dark minty, what happens next?

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our elucid and interactive exhibit on the magic and mystery of wombat food. For the next two and a half weeks, you will experience what it's like to travel through a wombat digestive system. Beginning as a simple meal of grasses and ending up as a one-of-a-kind cubic poop.

We're gonna be converted into poop? Anything for science? That means anything. Ladies and gentlemen, please follow me and step aboard the barrel mover and begin our two and a half week journey

throughout the wombat digestive tract. Two and a half weeks. We only bought one day tickets to the museum. Caras, two and a half weeks is the length of time

it takes for a wombat's food to travel through the intestines

and convert to poop. So, have a seat.

“You think they'd speed it up for the exhibit's sake?”

Just be patient, guys. And as we're all the magic happens. And the meantime, while we're on this battle mover, we've got plenty of time to talk about this poop cube mystery I was telling you about.

Alright, the mystery of the cubic poop. Yeah, so Georgia tags Patricia Yang and her fellow research buddies set out to discover why and how wombats poop in cubes. And how did she exactly begin this exploration? By collecting wombat intestines.

And by intestines, you mean those long tubes found in the bodies of humans and animals that help us break down food and turn it into energy. You know what Guy Ros? But what do you mean when you say collected wombat intestines?

I mean, did the wombats just give up their intestinal tracks voluntarily or? Oh, no, no, no, no.

“I should clarify that these particular intestinal tracks”

came from wombats who were no longer living. May they rest in peace. Oh. So the next thing they did was pretty wow. Oh yeah, what's that?

Well, in the spirit of anything for science, Patricia Yang and her fellow research buddies pumped up these intestines, blowing them up like giant freakish balloons. Are you making this up, Mindy? Not this time, Guy Ros. They did this to compare the stretchiness of the wombat intestines to the stretchiness of pig intestines.

And what was the difference? Well, the difference was that while the pig intestines had sort of an even stretchiness throughout, the wombat intestines stretchiness was super uneven, especially in two separate distinct places. Meaning that when the food went through the digestion process and turned into poop, that uneven stretchiness created uneven pressure, which was then put on the poop before it.

Yeah. Before it.

“And believe the word you're looking for is popped out the wombats, but...”

Yes, that's that. And it looks like we're almost there. Has it been two and a half weeks already? Well, judging by the time on this watch, I'm not wearing right now. I'd say time flies when you're having fun, Guy Ros.

Wait, now we're nearing the end of our journey. And this is where all the magic happens. Are we going to be turned into magic? Pooops!

Hold on, Guy Ros. We're about to reach the first uneven stretchy groove in the intestine.

Come on, come on, come on, come on! Come on, come on! Come on, come on! We're in the final step of the ingestion process. We're warming up and the intestines.

We're using us into tubes. So, we're all tuned. Now close your eyes, Guy Ros. We're about to pop out. We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step.

“We're going to be ready for the next step.”

We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step.

We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We're going to be ready for the next step. We know how cubic poop is formed.

The question we're left with is why?

So as you may recall, that was the first question

that led Patricia Yang on her journey to solve this mystery. So did she discover the answer? Here's the thing I was. One that's which are not turtle animals.

“Meaning that they sleep all day and poop all night?”

Yeah, basically. So every night, they poop out. 80 to 100 little one inch poops. One cubic inch? Almost that big. And they use these poops to communicate and to mark their territory.

So that potential mates know where to find them. Mark their territory. Do they use them as bricks to build tiny wombat poopots? I wish, but no. But wombats are known for having pretty bad eyesight.

So how will other wombats even know where to find them once they've marked their territory? Well, with a lack in vision, they make up for with their super sonic sense of smell. Yes, I've heard about this.

Hey Ros, can you have a dream of smelling wombat poop the way that a wombat smells its poop? Uh, no. Well, then today is your lucky day. Presenting?

Oh, hang on a second, I got to get an adventure tool kit first.

You've put it in here somewhere. That dog toy, I don't even have a dog. Here it is. Here it is. Okay, Karaz, presenting. The handy-dandy 5D sensory hat D.

My friend of mine made it for us.

“Here's D still, and I'll put it on your head.”

Ah! That's D still, I got a thousand of cheese straps. Ah, there we go. What is all this stuff hanging off of it? Karaz, those are the sensors.

Oh. See, Mina is a world renowned inventorido from southern California, and she invented this hat helmet as a way for us to experience the five senses

the way that animals do. Like, the way that wombat's smell with supersonic sniff power. You know it? Okay, now let me just attach this new hikki to your nose here.

And adjust the settings on the dial here on top. There, that should do it. Okay, deep breath through your nose. Ah! Pretty wow, huh?

Let me get this helmet off of me. Ah, they still look. There we go. Ah! So that's how wombat's do it.

They take their poop cubes, mark their territory, and then wait for other potential wombat maids to smell their stinky surroundings, and then they fall in love.

Or something like that. So wombat poop plays a valuable role in a wombat's life. And if you think about it, it might be safe to say that their poop is essential

to the survival of wombat's as a species. Exactaritos. And as a major bonus, the unusual cube shape of the poop helps to keep it from rolling down a hill or in the wind.

Genius. So why don't we make all poop like this? I know, right? If I had a nickel for every time your cat Alice's poop would just roll away

underneath your refrigerator when I was cat sitting for her. What? Before we leave Gaira's, I want you to look to the left of this gift shop right through that big window over there.

Huh, looks like a bunch of scientists and engineers and manufacturers are working on something. Yeah, so once scientists Patricia Yang got to the bottom of this mystery, the scientific community went bonker balls

thinking of all the things they could do if only they could find a way to make fake wombat intestines.

or using nature as a model for human inventions.

Wow, like using it in manufacturing to make cubes.

“I mean, just imagine all of the bio mimicry”

possibilities, Gaira's. Cubic wombat hoops as a model for

bricks and blocks and board game dyes and

oh, chocolate! Okay, time to put the poop talk back in the bathroom. Man, you know why? Why don't we try to find

“more of those little key chains with our names on it?”

Or a souvenir pair of poop dyes

to hang from the rear view mirror of Reggie?

Reggie has... Reggie, right in the middle of the gift shop? No, if only nature could find a way to pack bird poop into neat little cubes.

“We're going to need a cleanup on aisle seven.”

That was so gross! There's a wise Reggie. Mindy and Guy Ross got pooped out of a fake wombat's butt. Also that episode made me have to poop now too. Yeah, we better wrap up the show.

Like, right now. Thanks to all you listeners out there for tuning into "Wait, wow, I'm the weekend!" If you have a question for me, call and leave me a message. At one, eight, eight, eight, seven, wow.

That's one, eight, eight, seven, wow. I just might answer your question on "Wait, wow, I'm the weekend!" Okay, should we do the goodbye song? Here we go. That's the end of the show.

I need to go before I pooped my pantalyns. Nope, sorry. But I'll do another show tomorrow. But for now, it's the end of the show. Bye!
