PLEASE NEVER STOP THESE PODCASTS

This one is on Retep’s behalf because he was on to something about seeing our reflection. Pat and Forrest were mentally adrift reminiscing about their cuddle session in the Sierras and not listening to a damn word Retep says! (as usual 😆) Pat over there saying ancient humans would have thought their reflection was some kind of water ghost. Retep you were right my man, our ancestors absolutely would have been obsessed with their reflections. A high level of self awareness is one of the many unique traits we possess in the animal kingdom. I believe people have been seeking out reflective material for that exact reason for a very, very long time.

Bro my story is similar lol at first I'd skip any episode of Joe's that had Forrest on because I just didn't think he "looked" interesting.. boy was I fucking wrong. Watched the full 2 hour episode of Joe and Forrest, got totally fucking sucked in and loved every single story and started watching every TV show episode with Forrest, Wild times podcast episodes, you name it. I love these three gentlemen; hilarious, interesting, all three have their own talents and each bring important aspects that make Wild times as great as it is

Blows my mind how few listeners you guys have. Been a fan of Forrest for a few years now, but I only discovered the show by accident the other day. The podcast is fantastic, I can’t stop going through the episodes lol.

1:30:05 yoooooooooooo!!!

100% rather see 20 snakes under my bed rather than one giant roach.

Just found this and love the conversations. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you guys.

Ahhhh. I love it when nature goes "OKAY. YOU WANNA F- AROUND? OKOKOK. YOU GONNA FIND OUT" and sends us a foot long gold fish.

I was fishing once in that lake above Santa Barbara about 20 years ago and we saw a gold fish the size of my head floating around. It was so big I imagine nothing there could eat it. It was just sauntering along happy as a lark.

Can someone tell Forrest to stop holding the mic that’s already on a stand? 😂 we can hear it moving

6:10 it' not a frogfish (Antennariidae), it's a Batfish (Ogcocephalidae), but both families are in the same order (Lophiiformes) "Anglerfish".

I like how the "3d renders" is literally just they made the creatures in the game spore 😂

I like how the three of you have obviously discussed superhero names... All three called Forrest "Lion Man" within a second. 😂😂

Retep your the man. Keep the episodes coming guys you all are awesome love everything you guys do. #1 podcast And #1 fan right here. Seen everything you guys put out on here and on Patreon! Ps send me a shirt please!! 😊

I disagree and believe its an Armored Catfish that made its way into a brackish canal and ended up on the beach.

The last sentence of this podcast is legitimately the funniest and I say that with love and sincerity

Why would they stock fingerlings? Won’t they all just be immediately eaten? Also i cracked up at the part where Pat brings up florida n Forrest just responds with “I’m familiar with it” 🤣 as if Florida was some kind of rare wild animal

Snake Discovery is in Minnesota and they went to try and collect goldfish in a lake once, It wasn't as easy as you'd think, and after hours they really didn't make much of a dent.

18:21 looking into water. Chances are they’ll see a reflection.

In the mirror discussion Pat forgot rain and puddles existed when naming off the potential to see reflections..

Every time Retep sets down his can it gives me chills, I thought it was a soundboard for a second

Search "The Pod pmi". Great podcast and great intro song. Lol wasn't in there most recent episode though. This one is pretty good too though.

One of the tests performed in order to be able to tell if an animal is self aware or conscious is to give it a mirror and place a dot on the animals face and see if it recognizes the dot is in its face. So if humans at that time we’re becoming sentient they would be able to recognize their reflection. If they used tools they could have kept water in a pool or bowl for a mirror.

my local Petco has a to scale measurement of 14" drawn in permanent marker on the tank, telling you that these goldfish can get very big. I wish more places would do this.

Reteps camera switch towards the end was the best one yet 😂 but I give Forrest the win for the BR

Up date for the carp. I live in Minnesota and you are half correct on the Muskie plan we actually stock the lakes with tiger Muskie which is a hybrid of a northern pike and a Muskie. Please don’t tell any fisherman in the twin cities, I’ve been having a lot of fun fishing for them

Great news the oldest mirror found is 8000 years old made of obsidian. Not far enough back to be super significant evolution wise but pretty far back. Polished metal is also reflective so any polished copper or bronze can also be used

I love this pod soooo much.

Goldfish can grow to the size of the vessel, but their organs keep growing and end up squished up and can cause them health problems.

the day my son was born he looked exactly like his paternal grandfather ( as grandpa looked that day, white hair and all) several days later that effect faded, that would be something a father would have an image of.

This PPigTrash guy is just hilarious.

Europa is a moon of Jupiter that has oceans under ice

The only solace I find in thinking about nature, is the thought that one day, nature's gonna stop playing nice, and just rapidly evolve goldfish to have muscular human arms and legs with a fish body, and return to the pet shops they came from...for revenge....COMING TO THEATRES NEAR YOU.

Willam Dafoe is gonna be the main goldfish....

I live in Ontario Canada in a rural area and I've seen what we call "Snake Balls" in the ditch of roads before. They are matting and just form a ball mass of dozens of snakes. I'm not a fan of snakes but this was cool to see.

On fish releasers. At a local reserve, an oasis for extremely endangered desert pup fish, somebody released their cichlids in the only pond these desert pup fish live. Now it's only cichlids... 😭

The fish yall are talking about around the 7:20 mark is not a frog fiah it is a walking bat fish, similar but different

I grew up around Narcisse, it's wild the ground used to move with the snakes , but a combination of them moving there migration trail (it used to go right through my dad's property) and alot got turned into puree on the highway in front of the dens , the numbers are considerably lower , went from millions to thousands If you guys ever make your way I'll come show ya around

One time my dad got rid of a large goldfish pond that was around his patio and had several hundred small goldfish and it and we just dump them all into a 1-acre size pond and they completely took over the pond and we're basically the only thing left but some of them were close to 8 to 10 in Long.

Forrest wins this BR imo just on his always clever and sometimes whimsical picks. Come on, suspender snapping lobster claws is hilarious! Although the best overall single pick is definitely Retep’s snot coffee making hagfish. No fancy coffee shops, no hipsters. When Pat made his second pick I was thinking “skunk body, head of a golden retriever, is he just describing himself?” 🤣

It really doesn’t matter whose creature is better, if the three combine forces they became the hipsters worst nightmare

Venison stew is amazing, couldn't tell you about the roadkill seasoning though haha. Love the show brother

The farm I grew up on was 5 minutes away from the Narcisse snake pits😎

Very good podcast!

27:00 Typically Golden carp "Goldfish" at two inch aren't orange, Golden carp fry are a golden-bronze, there original wild colouring, till about 3-inch then start to change to orange but not all, some keep there ancestral golden-bronze colour. 30cm (12-inch) is the normal size for healthy pond type Golden carp, the fancy Golden carp around half that size as they typically have a type of dwarfism that squoshies there body.

Cascade wolf never went extinct until probably now, in the Central and Southern Oregon Cascades we always had a small population of wolves, county officials knew it, national outdoor publications knew it but scientists refused to recognize it (where do you think that first collared wolf from Idaho that wandered so far found a mate so quick) but now with the spread of Northern Rocky Mountain subspecies into that area they will be genetically swamped.

I can bet you that the creek is getting pissed in by people at festivals, 2000 people coked out pissing into a creek would probably explain the levels

51:31 there's a place like this in Drumheller Alberta I believe. Shit ton of rattlers too!

I used to go to the pet store and buy 12 feeder goldfish to use for catch and release Northern Pike fishing.. Like Forrest said, they are BEACONS to other fish.

When’s the 5 hour episode? Also 15:16 furbys are the most democratic looking monster toys

Trout are sensitive fish surprisingly they live I've hook them an die but drop out 100 ft some must die but even if 59percent live that's awesome never seen that so cool

some ice fishermen use goldfish as bait which is illiegal but it happens

We had a group of people who thought they were doing a good thing, freeing thousands of mink it be about 30 years ago. Now they're all over Ireland killing anything they come across. I'm a member of a trout and salmon club, and the mink lives around all of the lakes and rivers around me, and I know every county in Ireland has a problem with them they're starting to out do pinemartins and stouts on certain foods which is a big problem they're the American mink they kill for sport😢

I thought the animal was a sea slug. Lol

Yeah, Lake Ontario is completely full of those Goby fish.

Only on The Wild Times would we learn about garter snake gang bangs.

The fish from the beginning also looks like some sort of bat ray

Yeah people freeing stuff is crazy. Up here in Ontario I went to a small pond in a park to do some fishing for bass but I saw two 3 foot long dragon scale koi and what looked like a baby big head catfish. Like this pond was maybe 10 meters long and 5 meters wide. It’s crazy the fish people throw out.

We had a pretty big flood on a Connecticut River in Harford a few years back and me and her friend went walking down on this Park Riverside Park and first thing we see is a big ass Giant Orange goldfish dead on the sidewalk which blew our minds for a few minutes then further down the park we found a grayish version of a big-ass dead goldfish then we got to a part in the park where it dips down and it collected water making a temporary pool of sorts and in this one we see a giant orange thing out in the middle of this probably 4/5-foot deep depression that turned into a pond and inside that one we see a much bigger or anything at least twice the size of the other two may be bigger and I was like that's a f****** road cone that just ended up in that flooded area until it started frantically swimming in circles around the Little Pond Little Pond is right next to the sidewalk to return the other two dead ones so like as the water would recede these big-ass fish would try to make it back to the river which is only about 20 feet away probably and someone make it and this big bastard just didn't and I don't know what happened to him I took video of it my guess is Western Mass because they're dirty up there but who the f*** knows it could be Vermont it could the New Hampshire could be Canada I don't f****** know all I know is there's some big ass goldfish there is one other thing that people have mentioned to me about this but I don't think it makes that much of a difference there is a water turbine electricity situation right over there by that part of the river which pain stop the temperature of the water a few degrees and is a well-known spot for fishing because the fish congregate to the warm water I don't know if that has anything to do with it or maybe because it's directly beneath Springfield Massachusetts but was all seen The Simpsons and we know what goes on to the fish they're in Springfield

I love how they casually kill trulys

the fish in the begiinning isd a Monk Fisk (atype of anglerfish) not a frog fish. these fish are very common along the mid atlantic and new england, they they are also called Poor Man's Lobster because they taste like lobster

They usually different colors but prob dead changed due to death ☠️ surprised I got right before u said it I just watch anything on animals lol

Picture this in your mind: it’s 3am. You are sleeping in your bed and you awake to go to the bathroom. When you return from the bathroom and notice your curtains are open and go over to close them. As you get to the window you look out and see ( 2:00 ) staring into your soul…

Thats how I found your book so you should be thanking them

Was actually funnier when I thought you said fucker lol

I live right by the Narcisse snake dens and it’s a really cool place Forrest I really recommend you come here!

Goldfish are the captive version of crucian carp, like normal carp they are strong and fast swimmers, also intelligent bottom feeders. In the UK they are known to grow up to 10lbs easily in the wild. Through generations they should lose their colouring and revert back to their wild form eventually.

Like Fairy Tails to scare children

I'm glad yall don't have the studio anymore. But with that being said upgrading the cameras and maybe investing in a soundboard with the savings would really increase the overall quality. Love you guys but ya got almost 200k subs... its time to step it up.

Frogfish looked nothing like the picture being sent in. Am I wrong? Picture sent in looked so big compared to that little as thing.

The dead fish kinda looked to me as some sort of batfish

I found a crawfish once and kept it in a tank and fed it goldfish. It eventually died and left some goldfish behind. Which grew to be fucking enormous

The ancient Mayans actually made mirrors from obsidian.

bit late to this but someone needs to inform the forest about Chinese Bronze mirrors. Those are older than the oldest Chinese dynasties so nearly 5000 years old. The Romans had mirrors too. Some polished shiny rocks could have been used as mirrors tens of thousands of years ago

translucent octopus is cool, my crappy little apartment has translucent roaches.

people use goldfish for bait when fishing, end of day, dump left over bait in water. thats how it happens

I think you forgot factor about the mirror / self image. The amount of knowledge, development and new stuff in the brain was very low, so I assumed something new would be printed in your memory way more defined.

Tha That fish is called a sea robin. No joke. You were both kinda right.

I'm surprised by how much I love this podcast but I feel like Forrest should let his co-host talk more. I'm pretty sure they have some good stories in their own way too

.......and sometimes they have to kill off the whole lake due to an invasive species. Its name is PIKA. IT'S A PIKACHU!

Forrest is completely wrong out our ancestors concept of self image. Most of them would have a very good idea of how they looked. There’s more things that are reflective than just stagnant bodies of water.

Just got to the part where u mention the lobster. I actually had a friend who was lobstering in new england and for weeks he had people cutting the doors off his traps to release his catch. He thought it was a fellow lobsterman who was trying to poach his spot till he ended up catching a scuba diver in the act. Turns out the dude was some kind of an animal rights activist. Or at least he thought he was. He ended up bringing the dude to the harbormaster at gunpoint. Pretty sure the guy served jail time for it. Its a serious offense and the guys lucky thats all that happened to him honestly as its most often dealt with on the water and not in court. Messing with a lobsterman’s catch is not a good idea. Especially in New England.
