Amazing episode, so funny, love the chemistry between you three. Adal's specifics are legendary. "You were a grip on Adventure Time?" and "shoulders like Antelope Canyon." Some of the best random specifics I've ever heard. Dan, you talked about having a javelina tattoo, that's awesome. You guys then did a scene inspired by javelina and it reminded me so much of a memory of mine, so I just have to tell an unsolicited story. A few years ago, my wife and I were in the Amazon Rainforest in Eastern Peru, less than 50 miles from the Bolivian border along a river called the Rio Madre de Dios. We were staying at this eco-resort really deep in the jungle, no electricity except the bungalows had basic lighting running off of car batteries. It would have been a lot of people's worst nightmare, mosquito nets were more than mandatory, we did a midnight tarantula walk to see all the different native nocturnal tarantulas, and the guide didn't even have to go three steps from our door to start showing us tarantulas, so we were like "okay, guess that's just how it is here. We were there to see the animals and the raw nature, which we definitely did, we saw hundreds of animals over the week like anaconda, sloths, capybaras, monkeys, caimains, river otters, etc. Anyway, I was hanging out on the path that ran between the bungalows and I saw a wild pig in the distance, so I called out to my wife to come see. My voice caught the pig's attention, which caused it to immediately start running over towards us. My immediate reaction is "holy shit!" and I instinctively somehow get my jungle knife in my hand, like I would even know how to impale a charging wild pig. So my wife is screaming and running away and I'm just bracing myself, and the wild pig gets right up close to me and pushes its head into me, but not really aggressively. So I collapse into sitting position on the ground because I'm pumping with adrenaline and I figure now the pig is not trying to kill me. But now this wild pig is nuzzling its head in my lap, my wife and I are cracking up trying to figure out what the hell is going on. It keeps looking up at me like a dog and I finally register that it wants scratches, so I scratch the pig behind the ear and it makes that face that dogs make. My wife scratches its belly. Eventually it saunters off and we are dumbfounded. Later that day I am trying to describe the incident to one of the workers, but my Spanish is not very good and it's difficult to communicate. The guide keeps saying "Pancha! Pancha!" I'm asking if anyone knows "pancha," I don't know that word, I'm thinking it's the type of pig. Eventually, it hits me like a bag of bricks that Pancha is the NAME of the pig. Then it all starts making sense. The guide is trying to tell me that Pancha is the owner's pet peccary. Also "peccary" was a word I didn't know but it's another word for javelina, so before I figured it out I was like "pecker? Pancha? What does it mean!?" So yeah, that's one of my favorite memories, how fast I went from being ready to do combat with a wild pig to scratching a goofy peccary behind the ear. We found a souvenir javelina stuffed animal later in our trip once we were back in Puerto Maldonado, in civilization, and of course we named him Pancha the Peccary and he is chilling on my bookshelf right now.
