Leave a comment if you're watching on the live stream on Facebook YouTube and what

used to be Twitter.

You know this because you've probably been outside.

It's very cold.

And just a reminder, keep an eye on your pets.

It's eight degrees.

It's eight degrees.

The windshields are and these are only what 2530 mile an hour wind gusts.

Yeah.

So yeah, it's it's it's chilly.

Keep an eye on your pets.

Don't leave them out there too long.

That's apparently if you have a Husky, have you seen some of the videos of Huskies?

On Instagram and I they show up on on my Twitter feed all the time.

People having actual arguments with their Huskies who will not come inside.

My mother-in-law, their neighbor has a Husky, a big like, you know, Jack London type Husky.

Like this is built for speed.

Right.

Every time I go to her house, that Husky isn't just sitting on the patio furniture.

It's lounging on the patio furniture like, what's up?

How you doing?

How you doing?

You want to come join me?

And that's not a good day.

In this icy hellscape.

Come on.

Yeah.

But they're so vocal.

It's hilarious.

You can if you're looking for a laugh, go to go to Instagram, go to TikTok and just just

put in Husky Husky.

Husky Husky Husky is arguing and because they actually argue with their owners.

It's here.

Hilarious.

But my whole point was keep an eye on your pets in this very cold weather dogs can take

it up to a certain point.

At some point to their pads, their pads can get a frostbite.

Frostbite, they can crack under the dragon, it's salt can get trapped in there.

So be careful.

Yeah.

Just be careful.

Calvin, it's 11.53.

That means it is time for this shouldn't be a thing.

Today's tiz-bets is the Lego edition, a shark caught in the net of a fisherman isn't

anything new.

But when it's the first Lego shark found, since a cargo ship lost its load of almost

5 million Lego pieces at sea 27 years ago, it tends to make waves.

The BBC reporting a couple of weeks ago, hundreds of pieces from the Tokyo Express cargo

ship have been recovered this year.

In 1997, this ship was hit by an unexpected wave and lost 62 shipping containers about

20 miles off of England.

Since then, the BBC reporting that Lego pieces have been washing ashore in southwestern

England, the Channel Islands, Wales, Ireland, the Netherlands and Norway.

But the shark found in August of this year by a fisherman in Plymouth, England was the

first of the 22,000 dark gray and 29,000 light gray Lego sharks that were lost in this

incident at sea.

Anyone who knows Lego right now is thinking to yourself, I wonder how much is there worth.

I want to record firing them.

Well, if you can get a little rescue operation going, they believe there are probably still

some 50,000 plus Lego lying on the seabed of the ocean.

Cameron, I'm calling to you James Cameron.

He's got he's got the stuff.

Yeah, he does.

He's got the equipment.

Some are making their way ashore.

Others are heading into deeper waters.

The sharks also sink.

These Lego sharks are among the few Lego pieces that sink.

And therefore, that's why so few of them have been found.

You see, Jane, I have an app on my phone where I can take my phone and look at a pile of

Lego and it will tell me what I can build.

I need to get it on a boat.

I need to get on to some merciful.

Can we take this civic media credit card?

This is all above board.

Sure.

And then I will find these Lego.

We will talk about it.

Well, we'll make it a segment and we'll build it while eating broccoli cheese soup.

That's amazing.

That comes from the Delafield Brufos because their soup is really good.

The beer cheese soup on my goodness.

Oh my gosh.

Now I'm hungry.

Yeah, that's kind of unfortunate, but they're finding them one at a time, but still knowing

that there are 50,000 pieces still unaccounted Lego floating around in the ocean somewhere,

that definitely should not it should not be my house.

That wraps up today's episode of this shouldn't be a thing.

Coming up on the show tomorrow, Lisa Schiller is going to be here from the better business

bureau.

I got a voicemail last week, mm-hmm, ostensibly from the IRS.

Yeah.

Telling me that the IRS has forgiven all tax debt.

That kind of jumped out at me, I mean, thanks Trump as not sounding particularly legitimate.

No.

And Lisa Schiller with the better business bureau.

She knows all the scams, all the scams that can be scammed.

Yeah.

So we're going to talk about scams to look out for one of the newest ones with the latest

ones.

And whether or not I don't have to worry about paying any taxes because I got this completely

legitimate tax or a voicemessage.

You're trying to express what you're having and don't leave her.

Just call this number.

You're correct.

It's fine.

Perfectly legitimate.

I am absolutely sure.

A little bit later on this week on Friday, we have a last minute big meeting.

Oh, yes.

So we're going to do a special, especially curated show for you on Friday with some new

content in the first hour.

And then we're actually going to replay the second hour of yesterday when we had our

debut for 2025.

But beyond the cheese, yes, we Stephen Aronson from Wisconsin, knitwear, great conversation

with him.

Maybe I can, maybe I can put together this, the beer, the broccoli cheese, broccoli cheddar

saga.

Oh, that's a good idea.

That's fun.

We'll see.

Parts one and two.

That's coming up again, Lisa Schiller tomorrow from the better business bureau will be

joining us.

News coming up next.
