Fishlips Andros & The Loser Absontonio’s Micro-Micro Show Episode 4 - Neuroscience

Episode 4 - Neuroscience

“Steamers, guess who? You guessed it, The Loser Absontonio here, holding it down from the 347.”

“And your boy Fishlips. Today’s show takes a different spin from our usual episodes.”

“How’s that? Let’s hear what Postpartum Sally rung up for us today.”

“We’re going to be talking about neuroscience.”

“Finally, something badass. Wasn’t he like the first emperor of Rome? Crazy dude who ordered the first post-op surgery on one of his slave boys. That’s where that saying comes from.”

“What saying, Rome wasn’t built in a day?”

“Yeah, but also that it burnt down in a day.”

“As interesting as that sounds, we’re actually talking about the brain. Neuroscience. Not Nero science. That’s two words Tony. Our subject is one long word. A Postpartum Sally spellchecker kind of word.”

“Yeah but didn’t she spell her name wrong on the job application?”

“Actually Tony, that was a typographical error.”

“Thanks for that Sally.”

“Still spelled her name incorrect.”

“Back to the brain, guys.”

“Bro, seriously, you’re killing me. You wanna talk about brains. Let’s talk about a zombie apocalypse. Brain eating zombies. We need to know how to modify a hockey stick into a sledgehammer.”

“The brain’s so amazing, Tony. It’s not a bore-tour episode topic. Interesting enough, we only use ten percent of our brain.”

“Oh really, is this from guaranteed facts off the internet?”

“No.”

“So, if I use ten percent of my brain why can I remember the entire plot of inception and still not understand it? I even forgot to pick my girlfriend up. Explain the Nero science in that, Fish.”

“Wait. Are you arguing that we use less? Never mind. Speaking of inception dreams are however a pivotal part of neurological study.”

“Yeah, but if you die in a dream, do you really die? Like in real life? Because the other night I had a dream I was trying to save Selena Gomez from falling off a helicopter and when I reached for her hand, she turned into Pennywise and yanked me off the helicopter and before I hit the ground, I jumped up awake. That whole week I was shaky and I think a piece of my soul stayed behind.”

“That’s just your nerves, Tony. Nobody has ever died in a dream.”

“How the hell would you know that. Did the people who died in their sleep wake up for a second and post on Reddit, I did not die from my dream. it’s not like they could just leave a bad review, one star, died in dream.”

“I think we need facts. Can someone play the Postpartum Sally entrance song. 

“Bring in the researcher. Whose idea was it to use Tove Lo’s Habits as her theme song. Hey Sally.”

“Hey Tony, hey Fish, heya guys.”

“We need you to solve a debate between us, it’s about deaths in dreams. Can dreams actually cause you to die in real life?”

“Actually now that you bring this up my dad—”

“Sally, facts. Just stick to the facts.”

“Yeah, no one wants to hear about your dad.”

“Ok. Well on the tablet there is an actual condition called SUND syndrome.”

“I told you, Fish.”

“It’s from a heart condition though, Tony. There’s no definite proof people can die in their sleep. Consequently, there’s none that says it can’t happen either.”

“I don’t know, Fish. But, that nocturnal death syndrome, sounds more like dying in your dreams to me.”

“I’m still on the fence about the dream monster logic.”

“You’re pulling at my heart strings, Fishcake.”

“Fishlips! Thanks Postpartum Sally.”

“Later guys.”

“That wasn’t what she said about how SUNDS worked.”

“She said nocturnal death syndrome, science guy. Case is closed. The monster’s real. He exists.”

“Guys at home, dreams aren’t dangerous. Don’t worry, dream away.”

“Safe dreams all, The Loser Absontonio, peace out.”

“Catch you on the next show. Fish.”

“And, Postpartum Sally, signing out from her quiet corner.”

—

“Sally doesn’t seem shy anymore.”

“I don’t give a %@$#, I been checking her out all week.”

“Guys, we’re still live.”
