Jeff: No. Not even close.
Mr. Dog Poop: I'm intrigued with a motor. I'm going to say, you know, if your kid has a 200 IQ and a few hours a time, this is going to be a fun little project. I'd love to know how to build it and use these axles and these gears and actually get the motor powering something because it looks pretty cool.
Jeff: Oh man,
Mr. Dog Poop: I don't see this happening all the time. As far as I'm concerned, I've met my match on this one.
Jeff: I think I broke the wire.
Mr. Dog Poop: The what?
Jeff: See that? It's a little thing there. I don't know if you see it.
Mr. Dog Poop: What is that?
Jeff: It's the battery thing.
Mr. Dog Poop: Your battery thing. Oh, mine has it too. You broke it.
Jeff: Oh, just built that way. I thought I broke it.
Mr. Dog Poop: It has something in there. It may be a small resistor.
Jeff: Ah, okay. I can see it.
Mr. Dog Poop: I guess it wouldn't be a diode. The two batteries are probably way too powerful for the motor. So, they probably have a resistor in there to limit the amount of electricity coming off of the batteries. I know all this stuff because I have a degree in electrical engineering, and I still can't build this robot kit. So, you know what, I'm going to do a shout out to all the parents that think their kids can do this kit. Buy it for them, see if they can do it. And go ahead and comment on our thing, telling us that your kid is smarter than Mr. Dog Poop.
Jeff: Yeah.
Mr. Dog Poop: I'm going to give out, you know, they have the Nobel Peace Prize and the Nobel Prize for physics and everything. We're going to have the Mr. Dog Poop prize for just being able to do things that Mr. Dog Poop can't. So, every year we're going to give out a prize, probably to some kid that's smarter than we are. If we do this every year, do STEM week, STEAM week, whatever it is.
Jeff: The bar's not set very high.
Mr. Dog Poop: We'll give out a prize every year to kids that are smarter than we are. Yeah, that's not a high bar, but you know what, you got to start someplace.
Jeff: That's true.
Mr. Dog Poop: And you know, I mean, this is a terrible thing to bring up. I just saw the other day a girl, 14-year-old girl in New Jersey that killed herself after they showed a video of her being bullied by kids in school. You know, that crap needs to end. It's just sad. Get your kids off TikTok. Stop worrying about what everybody else is thinking. Teach the kids some important things. Teach them science. Stop worrying about CRT. And whether they're friend is transgender. The governor of Florida was mandating that girl athletes would have to report their menstrual cycle to the state to monitor their menstrual cycle, to make sure that they were girls and not transgender. And that's pretty invasive and pretty ridiculous. It's getting on.
Jeff: Is that real?
Mr. Dog Poop: That's real. That's DeSantis. That's your that's your governor. That's a real thing. And, you know, it's offensive. It's offensive to women and to girls. And we need to stop worrying about everybody else and start thinking about ourselves and what we can do. And I think this is probably a great kit for kids. These toys that we're showing this week are just at a different level. Stop giving them cell phones and putting them on TikTok. Give them a challenge. Let them make something. Let them build something. Let them invent something.
Jeff: Yeah. And for Christ's sake, young man, if you see a girl getting beat up by a boy, step in. Don't take your phone out and watch.
Mr. Dog Poop: Oh, my goodness. I mean, a shooting at Michigan State, you know, it's on and on and on and on. It's like people, we're all people; respect other people. Help other people stop being bullied.
