Me: But the Yalu is over 2,000 km from Wuhan.
Them: It was a big flood.
Me: A flood that big would push the ice wall off the edge of the world and drain the oceans.

Conspiracy Theories Episode 3, Atlantis
[Most of the people who believe Australia doesn’t exist also believe Atlantis doesn’t exist…]
This should be easy to debunk, so I asked “If Atlantis doesn’t exist, where do the mermaids come from?”
Their answer, they escaped from a lab in Wuhan when the Yalu river flooded.
Conspiracy Theories Episode 2, Australia 2/2
It turns out that most of the people who believe Australia doesn’t exist also believe Atlantis doesn’t exist.
Conspiracy Theories Episode 1, Australia 1/2
Did you know there are people who believe Australia doesn’t exist?
Not just wishful thinking, we all have that.
They really believe it doesn’t exist.
Conspiracy Theories Episode 0, Intro
What about those conspiracy theories?
Powerful forces doing evil?
Well meaning medical staff doing harm?
Incompetent fools destroying the economy?
I love mocking them & even creating related theories of my own.
One day I’ll hear one of mine in the wild.
Animal Names (all in one Video)
Me having a rant about some of the Greek & Latin animal names.
This is based on the same source as the memes I’ve been posting for the last few days.
Animal Names. Episode 6c, Bird Heaven.
… which makes me wonder: Do moa walk around bird heaven asking “Does extinction make my bum look big?” or is it a case of “Dodaars don’t tell?”
Yes, I really did write this whole series just to get that ghastly pun in, hopefully you laughed & that’s what comedy is about.
Come see me on stage.
Animal Names. Episode 6b, Dodo.
… They called it “Diornis” from Latin “Terrible Bird” but some claim it means “Like a Dodo” …
The only things the Moa & the Dodo have in common are they are both extinct flightless birds.
At least the name Dodo makes some sense.
It’s probably from the Dutch “Dodaars”, meaning “Fat-bottom.” …
Animal Names. Episode 6a, Birds.
Then the English came to New Zealand and were shown the bones and feathers & even some preserved skin of what we believe to be tallest bird that ever walked the Earth.
Did they name it for being the tallest?
You must know the answer by now.
“No!”
What about the long neck & the small head? Ah, we already did that in episode 4.
“Of course not!”
They called it “Diornis” …
