You know, like war is a mysterious thing and there's all sorts of tactics, you know, and stuff that goes on. Within that. Us, like you know, us non-soldier folk don't get guys, you know. I mean, come on, it's just what it is. I'm not a soldier man, I didn't know, anyway. So, but I just know a guy who knows a lot about war and I feel like, or of a guy His name's Sun Tzu. You know of this guy.
Speaker 1:
Not personally, and Polly Walnut's called him Sun Tzu, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:
Sun Tzu Spaghetti yeah.
Speaker 1:
Sun Tzu yeah. Part of war, I'm familiar.
Speaker 2:
Okay, cool. Well, that's a good thing, because one of his most famous quotes there's two of them I really like, though these are like, necessary for all things in war. I feel it is Sun Tzu says what is of the greatest importance in war is extraordinary speed. Okay, that's one. That's one quote. Okay, another one from this legendary war, I mean. He says I mean, come on everybody, if you're, if you're into this shit, you know who this guy is. Another quote he has um is speed is the essence of war. There you are All right, man Hitler would agree. Yeah, he would. Jeez Blitzed Kree. Yesamphetamine yes, indeed, indeed. How much do you know about the methamphetamine of the time?
Speaker 1:
I know that the Nazis were using it to create super soldiers, kind of was one of the things they said, like keep them alert and fighting. I knew very little about Finland's involvement in World War II. Yeah, I didn't know anything really. Yeah, they had an erratic involvement as, after staving off invasions from the Soviets, they joined forces with the Germans to invade the Soviet Union. What Flip-flop Forces with the Germans to invade the Soviet Union Flip flop huh, I mean right.
Speaker 2:
I mean that's, I had no idea that anyone fought with both sides. Russia did. Russia was Allied with Germany initially, weren't they?
Speaker 1:
and then, after the fact, they fought against them, like right at the end, as the tide had turned, I feel so that's a thing? Yeah, I guess so.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, you know well, meth was a thing and it was like, well, from what I read okay, I'm not, there's no notes here but back then it was created, like pretty much right before World War II, as a antidepressant by a German pharmacist and they actually sold it over the counter, man, for like quite a long time, I guess. So that's a thing I do love. A quote here and it has to do with the book, but it says few drugs have received a bigger stimulus from war. That's about methamphetamine. As Lester Grinspoon and Peter Hedblom wrote in their classic 1975 study the Speed Culture, world War II probably gave the greatest impetus to date to legal, medically authorized as well as illicit black market abuse of these pills on a worldwide scale. All right, so Hitler, nazis, germans, we're looking at you guys Cooking all that dope All right Good times.
Speaker 1:
Yet another fun addition the Nazis brought to the world.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, yeah, these guys are fantastic. I mean it doesn't get much better than the fucking Nazis guys. I mean they're like the eternal, like bad guy, right, like I mean.
Speaker 1:
And I don't think that's overblown. It's kind of like one of those, like most of the stuff that's like through history, it's like, oh well, it's like no, these guys were horrible. Like there's no.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, no, it doesn't get any worse. It really doesn't. I mean, possibly something that we don't know of in pre-recorded history-ish sort of deal or whatever, but I don't know, I don't have anything to compare it to.
Speaker 1:
So I don't have anything good to say about the Nazis. That's my take on it.
Speaker 2:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
I did see. Yeah, on March 18th 1944, deep in enemy territory, a Finnish ski patrol was ambushed by Soviets. As gunfire rang out, the Finnish troops attempted to flee on skis. Of course, being a ski patrol on foot wouldn't have gone as well. No, it would not.
Speaker 1:
It doesn't go that well, but leading the pack through the heavy snow was Emil Kuyven. The rest of the patrol relied on him to cut tracks. They would follow the combination of stress, the ambush and the grueling job of cutting through dense snow. Right Corbin was exhausted, yeah, and he remembered he'd been given the stimulant Pervitin. I believe it is.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, that's exactly right Pervitin, Pervitin, yeah sounds pervy.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, it's heavy, but officers had told him it would provide instant energy. While he was resistant to taking the narcotic, he felt he had no choice. None, and he had a bottle containing a pill of pure methamphetamine for each of the 30 patrol members. And while frantically moving through the snow and trying to get his thick mittens off, instead of taking the one pill, he consumed all of the 30 pills All at once.
Speaker 2:
Just gulp that shit down All at once, and yeah.
Speaker 1:
so having ingested enough meth for almost half of a Loewings trailer court, his pace understandably increased.
Speaker 2:
Oh, my god, didn't he like go in and at first? Sorry, go ahead. Oh my god, didn't he like go in at first? Sorry, go ahead. This is hilarious.
Speaker 1:
Oh sorry. At first his fellow troops kept up with him, you know, trying to evade the Soviets, right. But he just kept skiing and skiing, yeah, and eventually realized that none of them were anywhere near. His vision had blurred, he slipped in and out of consciousness, but he kept skiing Kept going.
Speaker 2:
All over that white shit Kept going yeah.
Speaker 1:
One can only wonder if he's a grandfather of Billings' beloved meth cycling event. Pioneer Wheels instead of skis? Yeah, I guess so.
Speaker 2:
Pioneer, pioneer of skis. Yeah, I guess, pioneer, pioneer and skis my friend, it's a pioneer. Meth skiing? Yeah see, I don't know. I've never heard of such a league, but apparently Mr Koivin there was, you know, leading the pack right. Wasn't there something in the mix of this where while he was skiing, he like hit a landmine?
Speaker 1:
Yes, yes, what the fuck he came to after the initial rush, I suppose you'd say, of taking all that amphetamine.
Speaker 2:
Right.
Speaker 1:
He realized he'd covered 100 kilometers. There was a load of no food, ammunition, nothing.
Speaker 2:
Right.
Speaker 1:
Very far from friendly territory still.
Speaker 2:
Right.
Speaker 1:
And then he was made aware that the Soviets had not given up their pursuit. What is with these guys? And he would counter them several more times.
Speaker 2:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
And yes, he'd over a landmine. Then lay on the ground freezing, drifting in and out of consciousness, right.
Speaker 2:
I hate cold weather, man. I swear to fucking God I would never want to be in any sort of situation like this, and I don't like doing math either, so I don't think I'd care for this.
Speaker 1:
I was going to say, even with math does it warm you up either.
Speaker 2:
So I don't think I'd care for this. That wouldn't. I don't know, that wouldn't entice me much. Yeah, purveys in was a hell of a drug. I think Rick James would say something like that the yeah, I mean it's like this whole frickin World War two was fueled by methamphetamine, like the Americans were doing it. After a while the fucking British, the Japanese were doing it. After a while the fucking British, the Japanese were doing it During their kamikaze flights especially, they'd get them all frickin' you know, just geetered out. It's a popular Billings term. I don't know if people around the country use that, but it sounds super disgusting and it was something I remember hearing in the 90s about people all super, extremely high, well anyway. So after this mine explosion, I mean it must have blew his mind right, like what happened to him after that. He just laid around, or was that it?
Speaker 1:
Uh no, Um. Well, having ingested the Mormon family-sized dose of meth, his appetite was obviously suppressed for several days, but eventually he was ready to eat Right and so yet, desolate Lapland Finland, was not known for culinary delights. No, Our friend here survived by eating pine buds, and I guess he caught a live bird, a Siberian jay as it were, and ate it. But he didn't cook it, Just ate it. I don't know if he gutted it, yeah.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, yeah, anyway, he stayed alive eating.
Speaker 1:
Cook it, just ate it. I don't, I don't know if he gutted it, but uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, anyway, he, uh, this guy's something he stayed alive eating, I assume, like pine, pine buds or like pine cones, like miniature pine cones yeah, and a uh siberian jay jesus guy yeah, I don't think the fin, the Finnish, are now like famous For this dish. Maybe they are like oh, we just like Pine jay or whatever. Give you some meth before dinner and then.
Speaker 2:
It's like a fucking bird with a pine cone Stuck in it's mouth Sprinkled with meth On ice Not even Beathered On ice.
Speaker 1:
Well played on ice. Not even he's feathered yeah, not even on ice. Well played, very good. Methamphetamine thank you for recognizing. It. Was the bird super high when it died, I don't know. You eat it and then you don't eat for like six weeks yeah. I'm unclear, and I I don't mean to make fun of people's drug addictions or being unmasked, but yeah now what it is.
Speaker 2:
What it is, I mean, if you're going to make fun of something, it doesn't seem like a bad thing to fucking make fun of. No? So between April and July 1940, this is a fun fact I just found German servicemen received more than 35 million methamphetamine tablets. That's a lot, that's a lot of meth guys. That's some good shit too. Yeah, I'm sure. I mean, that's at least like it depends on how you look at it, right? Well, I'm sure it's at least a half a shipment to Billings Montana. I mean, that's quite a bit, so maybe a quarter.
Speaker 1:
Anyway, depends on the casino and the court and what have you.
Speaker 2:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
Tribunal of the meeting of the minds.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, the meth skiing collective. Oh, meth cycling. I'm sorry, guys, for those of you who don't know what meth cycling is, it is a sport in Billings Montana, where it's a relay type situation. As you are going to one trap house, to the other, you just steal bikes and you try to keep your bike as long as you can, and if you can't, then you get another bike and you're just super high and riding from dope house to dope house. Sometimes you make stops at garbage cans. It's just the sport.
Speaker 1:
Perhaps take apart a toaster on your journey. You know, try and turn it into a microwave? Well, that's like I don't know, maybe a Datsun, a 1981 Datsun that you dismantled and then also tried to make a spaceship with. But yeah, I mean there's many options when you're a mess like Lincoln. Billings from my understanding Right.
Speaker 2:
I mean the triathlon rules are loose. I did see a. I've seen crossover sports here in Portland. There's a fence cycling I feel. I was in a Jackson's convenience store paying and I looked over my shoulder as I see a very drugged-up man riding a little girl's bicycle, holding a jug of milk, out the front door of the convenience store. I was getting cigarettes man and I look over and I'm like what the fuck? And I hear the guy say something, and then another worker behind the guy I was paying at the register All this kid says is oh, don't worry, man, I seen him come in with that milk Because he's holding a jug of milk.
Speaker 2:
Because he's holding a chunk of milk and he's riding a little girl's bicycle. Right, I was in the fucking store. I went and looked to see if I was going to want a drink or whatever you know, and so I'm like, checking shit out and everything, grab some donuts, I fucking go to the front, I get my cigarettes. Talk to the guy, he's kind of nice. Look over my shoulder as I put my card in the reader and there's this like rough-looking fellow on a little girl's bicycle, like a little girl's bicycle, holding a jug of milk, riding out the door of the store. So Jackson's Gas Station on what the fuck street is that? I don't even remember Morrison. I feel right off there.
Speaker 1:
They're very kind about it is that I don't even remember Morrison. I feel Right off there. Everybody knows. I would think most places that sell milk would not have a bring your own milk policy. No, they're like corking. Fancy restaurants have a corking. You bring your own bottle of wine and they charge you $15. They're like oh, bring your own milk to the meth station.
Speaker 2:
Yes, well, this is a fent cycling crossover. I feel like it's a triathlon. Like you get super high or you do like a you know an in-betweener, like I don't know how they even call it these days. Guys, mouth loop, fucking a fent and all meth boost of sorts, and then you ride your bike into the gas station with your milk, try not to spill, spill it and then see if anybody notices you before you get out of it, and then you hand it off to your relay partner, which I don't know what they do next, swim maybe. Oh, a popular event here after the mess cycling is they try to jump across the freeway. That's what they do. I feel like that's part of it. Yeah, so I mean.
Speaker 1:
Seems like a good way to spend one's time. Yeah, it is Jumping and running. Yeah it's, they're very athletic. Yeah, apparently so in the city they don't weigh much, right, if they're all that stuff. Yeah, just floating around yeah, that was.
Speaker 2:
That was something else. I did not expect to see that. Guys like I don't know, it's just something you don't see every day, I suppose. Nonetheless, you know the guy made it back, right I?
Speaker 1:
mean, yeah, do you see what he weighed when he made it to, you know, back into Finnish friendly territory? I did not, no, I don't no, 94 pounds.
Speaker 2:
That's insane. How tall is he. And he had covered 250 miles, 400 kilometers. Yeah. And his heart was beating at 200 beats per minute. Yeah, that's insane. I read that At a consistent pace of 200 beats per minute. I did read yeah, so, and he lived to be pretty old, I think. I think the guy was like 90.
Speaker 1:
In his 70s, oh, yeah, I mean for back then too, right, then again, I guess, like Finnish people probably ate. Well, if you're just eating pine cones and meth and birds like it's better than probably the brisket sandwiches that were low cholesterol then again. You look at that shit. Nowadays, motherfuckers are dropping dead about the same age as, like our grandparents age, where they were like them. Cats ate giant sandwiches and just steak, and they didn't have all the chemicals in the food.
Speaker 1:
So okay, I'm not gonna go on that tangent. But just really, like our Siberian J-Mess, they didn't have all the chemicals in the food. So Okay, I'm not gonna go on that tangent. But just really, our Siberian J-Meth skiing friend here lived to 74.
Speaker 2:
And yeah, after taking enough methamphetamine to keep a whole troop of soldiers up for, I'm sure, a few days All at once. That's insanity, I don't know. Yeah, hey, you know that's insanity. I don't know. Yeah, hey, you know what's funny Sort of Jokes about Finland. I uh.
Speaker 1:
Please enlighten me. I know very few Finnish jokes. Hold on.
Speaker 2:
Let me finish, ah.
Speaker 1:
Helsinki.
Speaker 2:
Anyway. So, nonetheless, what is the difference between a Finnish wedding and a Finnish funeral? At a funeral, there's one less drunk One less drunk guy. Yeah, one less drunk in attendance, okay.
Speaker 1:
That works for Scottish too, sorry, so I'm. Yeah, I didn't know the Finnish were. They seem happy. Why are they drinking so much?
Speaker 2:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
Why Finland?
Speaker 2:
Why? Why not? I don't know if Finland's that happy guys, I don't know. They're pretty blonde. They look like children of the corn sometimes I feel.
Speaker 1:
You know, I don't owe you Finnish people any apologies. I don't give a shit. They're close to your people, right? I'm a Dane, just right on the border Right on yeah, no, I know, but you, oh, maybe the Danish, like they have Danishes everywhere, so that's a happy foe. I was. What's a Finnish? I've never heard of a Finnish pastry.
Speaker 2:
Fuckers, I haven't heard of Finnish anything. Hey, here's a joke I didn't understand. Apparently, it comes up a lot about Finnish people. Take this how you want. I don't know why don't you see Finns on the moon? They went, but there was no. No, they went, but there was no wood. That's funny, I don't know, nonetheless, apparently it has.
Speaker 1:
I'm trying to find humor.
Speaker 2:
It came up, so it comes up in every. There's no wood Right.
Speaker 1:
No, every joke thing, I don't get it.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, well, I don't either. And I looked up, you know, the most well-known Finnish jokes, right, about Finnish people, and that was in every list and apparently it has to do with the density of their forests. So that's how humorous these people are. Oh, that wacky Finnish humor. Yeah, that's why it's not the Finnish chef, it's the Swedish chef, you know.
Speaker 1:
What is the Finland? It's not where you start, it's where you finish. Oh, is this the most famous guy from Finland ever? Yeah, yeah. What are the Fin Finland? What are you?
Speaker 2:
It's not where you start, it's where you finish. Oh, is this the most famous guy from Finland ever? Because I've never even heard of anybody from Finland.
Speaker 1:
I've never heard of a famous Finn, but like maybe that's a good thing, you know they're like hey, we're just kicking it. I've heard like you're Helsinki's the capital, right Of Finland.
Speaker 2:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, yeah. So I've heard this is nice, but maybe they're just like hey, we're not funny, we don't have any good food. The women aren't good. Like, don't come bother us.
Speaker 2:
We're just kicking it.
Speaker 1:
We're up here. I'm offended Like we're way the fuck up above. Even you know my Scottish English. All them fucking knuckleheads. They're just like hey, don't worry about it. You know like, yeah, we're kicking it in Finland. Fuck you, yeah, something like that. Not even fuck you. We don't even have to say fuck you, it's just like, don't come here. Yeah, we're happy. Yeah, we're happy. Go away yeah, or don't go away. Yeah or don't go away, stay away, yeah, something like that. I want to go to Finland now and bother them.
Speaker 2:
Okay, well, let's do it. Why not? Hey, finnish government, do you let felons into your country? That's one thing. Two, you should let me over there so we can check out Finland. I don't know what you guys believe in. Do you have elves? I'm unsure. Is that just Iceland? I don't know, hey. So anyway, I have some things, and I'm not sure if it said how fast this guy was going. He was probably cooking, right, he's math oh, not cooking math, just cooking along. All right, guys, anyway. So did it say anywhere how fast that they think he was like skiing?
Speaker 1:
I mean it's you know how much ground he covered, but with him having to say he didn't come to until like a couple days after he like ate the. I still love that he ate a Siberian J-Raw, yeah that's fantastic Siberian.
Speaker 1:
Oh, excuse me, siberian J-Saw. Yeah, that's fantastic Siberian. Excuse me, siberian J-Sushi. Yeah, like flying sushi. Yeah, but finished flying, finished flying birds. But yeah, I mean, if it was timed out to like. I mean he probably would have won some events in the Olympics if it was just like they timed how fast he was going.
Speaker 2:
Well, I was going to try and get there. A non-competitive skier will achieve speeds of between 7 and 10 miles per hour. Professional skiers in cross-country races will reach an average speed of 15 miles per hour on long distances. Okay, okay, guys Out there in podcast land, I'm going to butcher some shit. Owen, you ready for that Butcher away? Okay, I'm pretty sure it's Simon, like Benny. Yeah, benny the butcher, yes, I agree with that. Hey, there's a good reference. Boom, boom, boom, boom. All right, good job, bro. We finally added in somebody different. We're not that old guys. We like all sorts of different rappers. Anyway, he's probably about my age, right, yeah?
Speaker 2:
Benny's got to be about our age, yeah.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, anyway, anyways, I wonder if he knows about the meth skier. Hey, I'm like Benny the butcher.
Speaker 2:
You know what. Reach out, bro. Let's do an I Tell Stories episode. Let's talk about is there any cocaine skiers? I don't know. Griselda, right, isn't that what they do? Yeah, anyway, simon hegstad kruger that wasn't so bad of norway holds the man's 15 kilometer cross-country skiing world record with a time of 32 minutes and 17.4 seconds. So that's how long it took this guy to do 15. With like super modern equipment on a like well-groomed course type of situation, he won the event in freestyle technique at the 2023 Nordic Skiing World Championship in Planika, norway, with his teammate Harald Oostberg Amundsen coming in 5.3 seconds behind. So these guys are fast. I don't know how that compares to our friend here, mr. What is his name? Amo Amo.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, amo, amo, amo. I don't know, yeah, sounds like a good guy. I mean, he was just serving his country. How about that, like this guy's known for? Like, oh, he did a huge guy. I mean, he was just serving his country. How about that? Like, how is this guy known for? Like, oh, he did a huge mass dose. That's it, dude. All he was really trying to do was survive.
Speaker 2:
Right. Have you ever seen the pictures like on the videos of the other YouTuber podcast where his eyes are all bugged out and shit that shocked?
Speaker 1:
a lot of people. Dude, he looks like he would be a big fucking fan of Billings' mess cycling.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, he'd be in there. Hey, you know what? Though man, the crazy thing, Go ahead.
Speaker 1:
You just do it. No, sorry, Like he resisted. I did read that he did not want to take this drug. Yeah, and before getting into this precarious, to say the least, situation. Yeah, you know the officers in charge of it. I don't know how this military shit works, but like people telling him what to do, he was like I really don't want to do this. And then he was faced with this situation and he was like you know what Meth it?
Speaker 2:
up Yep. There we are, let's get meth-y.
Speaker 1:
That sounds like something Mike Tyson would say let's get meth-y.
Speaker 2:
Let's get meth-y. I'll eat your children. Don't make me get meth-y.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, did I just do a, I'll tell you a bath, I just did a Mike Tyson impersonation. Just a bath.
Speaker 2:
Did I just do a Mike Tyson impersonation? Yeah, I'm like on a roll I don't use. I've never done impersonations in my life. I did corrupt in Time Warp. And then now Mike Tyson yeah, hey, check this one out. So this guy also skied 400 kilometers, right, yeah, yeah, okay. So this is really where I'm going to get something. Maybe wrong, I don't know. The Red Bull, this is the event. The Red Bull Nordenskjöldsloppet is the longest cross-country ski race in the world. Hold on, let me do that again. Nordenskjöldsloppet, okay, is the longest. What'd you call me? Yeah, right, no kidding, it's the longest cross-country ski race in the world 220 kilometers long. It takes place in Jokkmokk, sweden, and has a history dating back to 1884. Yeah, it's all right. Whatever Swedes, go on now Go to North Dakota. The course is open to everyone, but the number of participants is limited to being in the classic style. About 1,500 meters of altitude are to be mastered as well, so it's pretty long. So that was 220 kilometers long and our boy here was 400, right, yeah.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, so he's just. I guess it's 250 miles.
Speaker 2:
Right so long A lot of skiing. Yeah Well, the Iditarod Trail the Iditarod we all know, this famous dog sledding race in the snow in Alaska is roughly 1,000 miles long with dogs and supplies, and you can sleep and eat and do all these things, and that's you know. So. Not if there's masks, anyway, anyway, nonetheless. Hey, you know what All things said go Mr Coivin, anyway, anyway, nonetheless. Hey, you know what All things said go Mr Coivin. Yeah, yeah, we had a hard time. Yeah, let's not down this guy. This kid's a Finnish hero.
Speaker 1:
No, not at all. This dude's a hero. I mean he like he wanted to save his troops, like the one thing, I don't see what happened to the rest of the troop. I was wondering that too I was imagining it wasn't great they didn't start craft fairs in Lapland or start selling Stuff of that nature. I know that's a Norwegian thing, but I'm guessing all your people they got in that region.
Speaker 2:
Right, I don't know anything about Finland. Hey, you want to hear something funny? This is pretty funny. So I was like checking my ancestry crap on 23andMe as I was gearing up to do the episode, just because I had some curiosities. I am 0% Finnish across the board, but found out one fact, a fun fact, my friend I am 1.7% Italian.
Speaker 1:
Hey, I think that's more than me. You know I'm the pasta junkie.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, so I am a Latin American.
Speaker 1:
Yes.
Speaker 2:
Just saying guys.
Speaker 1:
Anyway. Yet you're still mostly Danish right, so you must have every meal off of like a pastry, yeah, and the fish guys, anyway. Yeah, you're still mostly Danish right, so you must have every meal off of like a pastry, yeah, and a fish platter or something Cod, I don't know Fucking.
Speaker 2:
I don't even really like fish that much. I know that's probably a sin to you, but I do like, like.
Speaker 1:
I like how? No, don't know, you must eat this Like oh, you really have to.
Speaker 2:
No.
Speaker 1:
Oh, that is a good one. I was talking with a dear friend of mine, brooke, today about how I feel my Scottish. You know how my people horrible cuisine.
Speaker 2:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
Like most Scottish, irish, english, english. That's most of what, and so you know there's a lot of my friends. My friend Kyle I just went to Las Vegas. That he's like I didn't have taste buds till later, and he's Italian oh my god but he didn't realize.
Speaker 1:
And so I feel like I was saying I feel like my uh's generation. You know centuries of horrible cuisine. I now feel like it's my duty to help everybody out, yeah, to bring legit stuff to. I'm like I'm sorry for Scottish cuisine sucking for all these years. I'm like I'm sorry for Scottish cuisine sucking for all these years. My monkey ass has to be like hey Colt eat some fucking.
Speaker 2:
