So "Look Who's Talking Too", the first of two John Travolta vehicles covered at the live event last month.

There is a specific reason why you can't get to Machu Picchu from New York by bus. It's called the Darien Gap, a dense rainforest / swampland that sits between Panama and Colombia. Fun facts about the Darien Gap:

1. It's home to many endangered species, including the adorable Cotton Tip Tamarind. 

2. It's the only reason why you can't drive from Alaska to Patagonia.

3. It's a haven for right wing paramilitaries, who use it as one of the main routes to transport the many tons of cocaine produced in Colombia, Bolivia and Peru into Central America and the US.

4. It's one of the most dangerous segments along the Ecuador-Colombia-Panama-Mexico-USA route that many refugees and immigrants use to get into the US.

Obviously, this is where the sequel should take place...

Hey Paul, on the recent hopeline segment you talked about ‘Baby on Board’ signs being unhelpful in changing people’s driving habits around a car with a baby in it, but that’s not really what they’re for. If you were to be in an accident, an infant or child in a car seat is more likely to be ejected from the car than an adult. The ‘Baby on Board’ signs are meant to alert EMTs, police, or other first responders that they should search the crash site for the infant or child.

"...populated by scummy Floridians."

Could've just said, "Floridians".

*Ba! Dum! Tss!*

I know this video is irrelevant to this podcast but it's super relevant for today.  Everyone should watch this.

Look Who's Talking Too is just awful..and I hate Travolta's "dance face" and dancing.
