 Welcome, welcome, welcome to my co-host today and welcome everybody in the chat. So glad to have you. Who is exhausted? Anybody tired yet? This is the Midnight Manus. Of course everybody on Western Hemisphere is exhausted. You can mine. This is Midnight Manus. This is the last one for the April fun. This is it. So no tough questions like we've had before. These are going to be the silly question night and we've got them broken up into a couple different categories. One will be done related and one will be bio builders related. And we're going to get answers from the co-host here and from you guys as well in the chat. So thanks everybody for being here watching us live. If you're watching us live and if you're watching us after the fact, thanks for being here and having fun after the fact with some of our silliness. First things first, let me go ahead and queue up the word that everybody needs to type. And there's a special reason why this is the word bingo is the word. No, David and I bingo bingo bingo once a month the first Friday of the month with historical notables. But we're bringing back also a noon one on the first day of the month and I will be hosting with a surprise co-host every month. And that surprise co-host will be the owner of a space page. So if you have a really fantastic awesome space page or something interesting is could be anything except we're not talking about one place studies one name studies anything like that something you created. Reach out to me. Let me know you could be a guest along with your space page on the first Friday of the month. So there'll be two bingos that we do and there will be a total of four prizes every month at that bingo. And I think that's the only way you can win a prize that's not during the thong on wiki tree memory starts. So thank you guys for being here type in bingo. It doesn't have to be capitalized. It can be in any way possible. And Darren, why don't we do the business part first and talk stats. And then we'll get to the questions that we have. Okay, you want to do by division, right? Yeah, by division. Oops. Sorry. Starting to do the top and bottom teams in each division. Okay. Division one. Got team Italy. Start 200. 875 profiles. Then banging tree has done 128 profiles. And we have two team Middle East members here. Yes. Hi. And then division two. So division two. We've got Germany genies done 4,785. And then the North Easters have done 595. And then coming up to division three, the ones with the most members in their team. Yep. Appalachian roots, of course, 16,161. Why is Greg not here for that number? Because what is that? Appalachian or something like that? And I mentioned too that we are trying to beat our record for last gone. And we will probably beat it. Yeah. And then, of course, the bottom team in division three is the new B team 973, which is pretty good for newbies. I agree. I think that's really awesome. And then we have a total. Let me refresh as well. We have a total of, it looks like it's still going to stick, 80,433. And Chris, you and I were talking about this. I think it was 98,000 in some change last gone. So what do you guys think? Can we do it? Can we get there? The last, yeah, the last time we had almost 10000. We had 98,937 last time. So what do you guys think? Can we do it? Can we do it? Probably. I don't know. It depends. I agree with Vicki. I'm not sure. And keep in mind, this goes all the way to 8am East Coast time. So New York time or if you're in Atlanta, Atlanta time, it goes all the way to Atlanta. And my experience with these plans, the last two hours is a wild race of entering in as many profiles as possible. You still have some crazy Americans awake doing things and then or waking up and you still have the Europeans and you have around the globe that are still doing it. So the last two hours, I have seen numbers change, teams change places. So keep that in mind. It's not over until it's over. And then at the 8am Hangout, you'll have a large group of people, but also a lush will be there to explain everything that happened and went on as we go. So thanks, Darren, for doing that. And I'm glad you picked the divisions again because for those of you that might be new to Aethon, Wikitree actually put teams in division based on size to make it more fair. So the person, the team that is in first place for division one team mentally, they have 2875. So that way they do not have to capture as many profiles as Team Appalachia to win. You guys in Appalachia set the gold standard. That's why we cracked the whip. Yeah. You guys. We tend to have to sleep. It's really strange. We just tend not to sleep. So I want to ask everybody too while we're here. Let me go ahead and take the stats out. For those of you here on camera and those of you on chat, how many of you use your Discord channels for your Thon team? Yep, we do. I do. Yeah. For Italy, yes. They're really, they're really good place to talk, to chat, get help, to keep encouraged. Especially this last few hours because everybody's tired. Everybody's kind of exhausted and needs that little boost besides coffee, your friendships that you gained through your Thon team. So I highly encourage everybody to reach out to their Discord if you have. Okay. You guys ready for some fun? Yes. So last night for Midnight Madison Thons, we usually do have you ever. My guests here do not know the questions just like you guys. So the first few ones just raise your hand. They're pretty easy, pretty simple. And then the second group are going to be bio builder questions. You never know what those questions will be. So the first group and everybody, please, please give us your answers in chat because we love seeing your answers. So the very first one, these are kind of related to the Thon. And this is a question from the last one, but it was so good. Everybody loved it. I'm going to bring it back. Have you ever thought in the same clothes all weekend long for? I know. Well, you know, okay. I like this route, not this weekend. I mean, one or two of the videos yesterday. I'm not wearing that today. I might have not. I'll have to go back and watch the last two nights to find out if I'm wearing the same clothes or not. Good night, everybody. Good night, everybody. Okay. So have you ever planned your vacation around a wiki tree Thon? Yeah. What vacation? What vacation? I have. And we do have a list as the list is out there. So check with your Thon team. The list is out there. The next Thon type event will be wiki games and you will not be with the normal team that you're with today or this weekend. You'll be assigned global members to your team. Okay. This one came up in my particular Thon team and it also with a slight modification came up in my own house. So have you ever bought new computer equipment just for wiki tree Thon? Again, no, no. I will modify it for my own benefit. Have you ever bought a new office chair just for a Thon? No. But we were talking in the previous Thons our hangouts. They were talking about needing an extra monitor or something like that to make it easier for the Thon. Some people talked about how they needed a mouse, other things that broke down and needed. Okay. So moving on, this one is kind of weird. I warn everybody now. But I hope everybody will let us know if this is them. Have you ever thawed with a parent who is also thawing? So who's got their mom or dad in there? My parents know about the Thon, but they don't really, they're not active with these creators. They just count on me to add all the stuff. And sometimes they'll come in and say, oh, did you add this person? All right. I'll add them. Give me your sources. You are cracking me up in that I can't share some of these with you guys are cracking me up here. Oh, I got to see some of the dancers. I think I saw, I think I said this prior episode, but my mother volunteered to go sit with me at the DMV, but she says genealogy is too boring. She won't come on it with me. With the DMV, she volunteered to come. That's funny. Okay. So the last Thon related. Have you ever before we get into the bio builders. So have you ever bought too many Thon snacks that you had left overs? No, never enough. Yeah, I don't think you can have too many. I know somebody said they had to, they had to wear clothes because they had to go get food. So I like this. What? Why don't we lift over? Lift what? This is funny. Okay. So if you guys are ready, I think we lost Kathy. I think her computer went to put violent. Okay. So these are questions that could be ideas for you to put on your personal wiki tree profile. And we have a bio builders group. And thanks, Kathy. We have a bio builders group that works on improving bios, giving them more than just the birth and the death. And these are some questions that possibly you might want to include on your bio. Interesting. So the very first one. Have you ever eaten whipped cream straight out of the can? Sure. Of course. Wow. Does it count? Yeah. Does it count? Yeah. Does it count? Yeah. People always ask. I don't know what to put in a biography. So, you know, there are. People would. Have you ever? You should have a category. Like since I eat direct as a bottle or the can. You're right. Because you know, we do talk about food all the time. Right. So that's a good idea. Have you ever been on a blind date? Yes. No. No, I have not. Long time ago. I'm waiting for somebody in chat to say, yes, they have, and they married that person. And then that would be great for their biography. But. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I don't know. No, but that's how my parents met. There we go. So that's perfect for the biography. I like this. Mary too long to even remember. Nice. There we go. Yes. I met my husband through a singles magazine. That's great. I love this. More than one. Yeah. That's fantastic. Have you ever taken a spontaneous road trip with no destination in mind? You just got in the car and said you're going to go somewhere. Nope. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We've gotten in the car just go with somewhere. See. See, that would be like one day we just got in the car. That's something you could put on. Your biography. Well, I think after COVID, more people are doing that because with COVID, we were all stuck, you know, and now we're like just getting the car and go somewhere. Have you ever screamed during a scary movie? Is it scary? Yeah. Yeah. No, I don't understand. Which movie? Which movie? I mean, I really think when I watch Pat's Cemetery, that movie just, no. I don't like Pat's Cemetery. No. If I'm with Silence of the Lands, I would just... I would scream. Would you like some five beans and a shanty? I can't do that. I can't do Hopkins. I like this too. No, but have jumped. I agree with that. I can't close my eyes. I have done that as well. I close my eyes. I close my eyes. Yeah. You don't do this with your fingers open. Yeah. I'm not lucky. I'm not lucky. This is usually me. That's great. So since we're talking about movies, have you ever used someone else's Netflix password? No. No. I don't know anybody else's. See how loud it is? Yes. And it's kind of like, or have you ever borrowed your Netflix password, given it to somebody? Yeah. Nope. Usually I borrow mine. Yeah. I like this. No, but anybody care to share? Yeah. I agree. Right. Yeah. It looks like this is pretty common. My family uses mine too. So this is kind of common. My niece shared hers until I got my own. So no to Netflix, which implies Stephen, yes to something else, right? That could be it. Okay. Disney Power Mile Plus HBO Max. I have all three. Yeah. Okay. This one is based on the last 10 years. So think in the last 10 years only. Have you ever lived without internet or a cell phone for more than a week? Yeah. No internet. No TV. No internet. No TV for a week. None. We still see a TV. Yeah. We lost power for like five days, a couple weeks ago, and again a couple of days ago. As you know, so I have to say no. Because what I experienced was over 10 years ago. I was at the Scouts Jamboree. Oh yeah. There's nothing. You probably don't have cell or anything out there. All right. And remember, this is in the last 10 years. Now see, I'm still the generation. You know the meme. When I was a child, I had to get up and go through several feet of shag carpet to get up to turn the TV channel. And we had that one channel that was all black movies, black and white movies. But you had to turn to, you know what I'm talking about, right David? Yep. When I was a kid, we used to go to my grandparents because they got black and white TV and all we got was color. But they got the UHF station that was all played all the old black and white shows. We didn't get UHF. And if you timed it right, you got all those scary B movies. There we go. So this is funny. Next question from Steven. Without internet for a week. Not on a phone weekend. No. It's the stuff I do on the internet. So, nope. No internet. No email, no internet, no Netflix, no Wiki tree, no any of that. I like how Steven says he was remote control. That's it. Turn the channel. I got it. That's what's going on for your bio. That's fantastic. Okay. So this is a very serious one and hopefully nobody will hear your answer for this one. Have you ever re-gifted a gift? Yes, yes. I did. Yes. Okay, Vicky. What was it? Just once. It was some kind of wooden box that collects your how do you call it? The things that you put in a bottle of wine. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The corks. Yeah, it's a decorative box that you put your corks on, but I didn't like it. So I re-gifted it. It's absolutely re-gifted. Definitely yes. Oh, I like Earth Christian. No, but I would like to. I don't know if I re-gifted anything. You know, I did get caught. I re-gifted. I didn't know that they expired. Apparently they re-gifted a gift card. I just thought they lived forever. And I was last minute. I forgot to get a gift. So I wrapped a gift and they came back to me and they said, I think this was re-gifted because it's old or something like that. And I was like, they never expire. And I accidentally let the secret out. I like this. So I have unwrapped presents and thought, oh, yeah, this is going to go to somebody else before it's open. Okay. So have you ever used a pickup line? Yes. Yeah. Okay. Yes. No. I'm not going to say what it is. I'm not going to say what it was. I was going to ask you, Chris. What was it? And then my second question was, did it work? Yeah. I'm not going to do it live. Again, I'm hoping somebody says, yes, I did. And we got married another way to improve your biography. I will say this. I will say this. Hey, baby, did it hurt? It was hurt when you fell in heaven. Oh. Amanda, I think we got the cheesy one. Yeah. I'll say it wasn't that. I like that. It was like, D&D theme one and no, it didn't work but I got people to laugh. And I think that's what Chris was got. Yeah. I used to pick up line to be funny, not to get a date. And I know people that do that. That is funny too. I love that. So, Chris. Yeah. Are you married? No. Art, thank you. Yes. And it was successful years ago. This is exactly the answer I was looking for. No builder line. What was the line art? Tell me now. You got to tell us what the line is. I want to write it down. What's going on? Yeah. Okay. Art is going to share with us. I hope Art is over this. Let's change it over to something a little bit different. Have you ever lost something valuable and never found it? Oh, yes. Yes. What was it? Hearing aid. Hearing aid. I lost my engagement. I lost my engagement ring. No. I think I threw it in the garbage. Accident. Did you get married to the person who gave you the ring? Yes, yes. Okay, so it's all good. Yay, it was an accident. It's all good. Did you throw it away on purpose? No. You know, in Rinesbury, this was a very common answer to this question. Their high school ring, their high school graduation ring was very common. Mine disappeared. Mine disappeared as well. I have no idea where it could have gone. I have both my high school and college rings in my drawer over there. So, there you go. And there we go. We've got another one that lost a diamond ring. It's like a pile of diamond rings somewhere, I'm sure. Yeah, this is funny. And then on Lake Stevens, I lost my mind. It's valuable. I can tell you by 8am in the morning, if those of us that are staying up all night, we will have lost our mind a little bit too. I don't know about me. Oh, this is heartbreaking. Yes, but more personally valuable. Lost a handmade quilt from great-grandma. That is heartbreaking. That is very heartbreaking. And then here's another one. Lost his college ring and his wedding band. Seems like rings are rings and little things, like the earrings or rings are the ones that are getting lost. Oh, no. I got it. I have a good one. I have a good one. My mom lost an earring due to all faults of her own. We're at this hotel that was said to be haunted by a ghost. And she was walking down the staircase. She felt something flick through her ear. The earring fell out and she couldn't find it. In a sense. And she never found it. And apparently the ghost was very jealous of ladies who looked better than she did. She was incredibly vain. And she liked to change her clothes and make herself look better than anybody else. She has a profile on WikiTree. Look up Caroline Pfelzer. Wait, who has a profile on WikiTree? I know. The ghost? Yeah, the ghost. I made a profile for her. Yeah. Well, you know, we don't have living people. So I guess. She was the ghost of the Mount Washington Hotel. Oh, my gosh. Okay. So let me move on. This one is a very odd one. Now let's see who admits this. Have you ever fallen in love with a fictional character? Even as a kid who had those posters on their wall or something. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Yeah, I guess. Indiana Jones. Forever. Hey, come on. Who didn't like to have a show killer in front of you? She was pretty. I mean, with all the comic and the Marvel? Nothing. Oh, yeah. Sure. Yeah. Absolutely. Okay, here's a good answer. In love, no. Okay. And there we go. Girls. Absolutely. Yes. No, Carol, you can't give me that answer. Not tell me who bubbles one. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Steve has a thing for Prebles. So that means we have to report them to me. You know, around the same time. Okay. Steve, this is important. Is it adult pebbles or baby pebbles? Answer correctly. We'll have to report you. You can't just say, oh, yes, you got to tell us who. I figured somebody would say yes from some of these movies, old movies, or some of the TV shows. Okay. So here's a question for you guys. You're not going to let me say mine. Yeah, I didn't hear you. Go. Johnny Depp from 21 Jump Street. Oh, yeah. Pirates of the Caribbean for him. No. Well, yes, pirates. Yes. The very first one was 21 Jump Street. Yeah. What's that? Nah. I'll let you have them. Okay. This is being a really great one for biography builder because you can expand on this. Have you ever sang karaoke? Yep. What did you sing? Okay. Well, what did I sing? I did the YMCA and the Dations and, you know, winning a prize. Wow. Yes. Unfortunately, all the good karaoke bars are gone now. I got this quote and crushed it too straight. I think most people, I think when they started having the machine so inexpensive that you could bring them home, you don't see a lot of them out anymore. But I know we used to go to karaoke by the beach when I lived in Maryland. You get some of the best, you know, people that were just in a band just out there wanting to go and sing. It was great. So I love this. And if you guys did sing at karaoke, then we are expecting you to tell us what song that you would sing. And I agree. I don't even sing anywhere because you wouldn't like it if I sang. You definitely would not enjoy it. I can't say, I can't really sing. But I did do rock band with my nephews and they left me in the middle of the song while I was trying to do rock band. Right on stage, I was doing my thing and I was like, this is me. Like, dude. Come on. This is impressive. Shonda started with Whitney and then it was Celine. She's hitting those high notes. Yeah. That's impressive. Do you count the Disney sing-alongs? Maybe that's what we should have hang out sing-alongs. Skitter boy. Skitter boy. Skitter boy. I love the Partridge family. I love that. So glad somebody said that. May the bird of paradise fly up your nose. That's a really old one, too. Okay. Yes, John, you win. You win. The comment of the entire show, you win. So yes, country rose. We will go with that. Okay. I'm going to put it into someone else's stuff. Yes. Of course not. That would be unethical. 1,000% snooped in my mother's stuff. That would be unethical. No. What about you guys? Darren David, have you ever snooped even as a kid? Why would I do that? You know, I once... When I went out with a... This was many, many years ago. I went out with a girl. Went to her apartment. And used the restroom. And the shower curtain was closed. And for whatever reason, I decided to peek. And it was the most grungy bathtub I'd ever seen in my life. I don't want to know. I don't want to know. I don't want to know. I don't want to know. You're like, I got to go to an early appointment tomorrow. I got to go to an early appointment tomorrow. I got to go to an early appointment tomorrow. I want to look at somebody's bathtub. That was your own fault. No, I learned my lesson. Yeah. Don't look behind the curtain. I don't know. I would say you learned your lesson and you said from that one you had better snoop. Okay, okay. I got a good one. I got a good one. One time I went to my parents' medical journal. They were both doctors. They didn't work with blood. I checked out the medical journal. When you're like six years old, you see all these graphic growth images. It's just kind of sticking in your mind. I think you know I want to be a doctor ever. It's just like all these growths. It was nasty. I tell you, I used to snoop. My mom had this really old, hard-sided Samsonite suitcase. She kept all important papers. And as a kid, what's important? When you tell me do not go in here ever, that's important. So, of course, I go in there to go look and it was completely boring. But I would do it all the time and she's like, did you move that? Somebody moved that. Were you snooping? Yeah. Okay, so guys, two more questions before we end this fun Midnight Madness and we'll do the drawing for the prize. Remember the word is bingo. Type in bingo if you haven't already. And so two more questions. Pretty fun questions. Have you ever met somebody famous? Yeah. Well, yeah. The bonus points if you have a picture of it to put on your bio. Yeah. I have not met anyone but I have gotten Stanley to talk to me directly. A friend of mine went to Comic-Con in Miami and she and her husband went to this restaurant and he was eating and stuff and he got the camera and I said, hey, can you see a message to my friend Chris? Being Stanley, like, sure thing true believers. And he was like, hey, Chris you know, this is really awesome. It's like a personalized message. I hope you're doing well with all you're doing you know, excelsior. I'm just like being annoying so hard. Because Stanley is awesome. Enough said. I will tell you I don't know, Christine this might be the winner too. How you meet Kate Hudson at a crackle bar. That was awesome. I once had Thanksgiving dinner at Ed McMahon's house. Oh, that's cool. And when I walked in he said here's David. He did. Oh my gosh, that's so cool. Is that in your bio? Shana was in a movie with whoopie Goldberg with movie. What? Awesome. Yeah, you got to say one movie. Yeah. We'll find you in a movie. I saw trigger but he was dead at the time. He's so cute. I'm jealous. Up in the museum. And Matt let it in. He won't kill us. There you go. When I was well yeah proud there was a movie filmed at my school. So we had all the New Zealand celebrities and got me quite a few of them. Yes, my mum bought the DVD of the movie and I can be seen like two or three times. Really? You still have it, right? Yeah, my daughter's after the movie. Did you have any photos as well that they take photos while you're there? This was back in 1994 so no cell phone photos. Oh, this is cool. John Wayne a couple of times. A couple of times. That's pretty cool. Who knew all of you have met so many famous people? This is pretty cool. Oh, Carol, this is pretty cool. Hank Aaron. That's pretty cool too. Oh, that's cool. It was greeted by the Prince Charles. That's pretty cute. Okay, so last question. This one's such an easy one and I was just going to put this question in but I decided after watching the Hangout the last two times and Chris was there as well I decided to put this in because I thought, you know what since you all brought it up and Sandy didn't bring it up I thought I might as well bring it up too. How am I going to bring it up with a have you ever question? So, have you ever drink moonshine? Oh, what's moonshine? I don't know. So moonshine way back in the day was something that was made with a still very hardcore alcohol back in the woods that wasn't taxed, wasn't processed or the government or anything like that and now it's been crazy. And extremely flammable movement. It will like seriously burn the real moonshine will seriously burn your throat and kill your taste buds for at least two weeks. But now it's become trendy and they have flavors. Don't put a mash near it. Boom. Yeah. I can honestly say I can honestly say I've never had moonshine in my life like ever. Oh, Chris we're going to have to fix this. Carol drank it from the stove and Carol's still here and Carol's a nurse. So see it must be okay. Yeah. So I will try you that we, you know I have seen Aaron actually drink the moonshine and eat the pickles. I have seen that. So I am her proof that she has pickle moonshine in her house. And it is if you like pickles for me it is good. Yeah, sure. I think this counts to the grandfather's cherry brandy because usually when that's made that's kind of made in a bucket. Usually I think some people make them home or buckets now. I think the closest thing I've ever had to moonshine me it might have been my dad's friend Carol made his own wine and it was really strong. That's cool. And it's like pink. It's so strong you peel the paint off the walls. And I'm going to know what Moose drool. I'm a little worried. I don't know if I could do that. I'm not quite sure about that. It is what is an Appalachian thing. It kind of came out of there. The Scots really liked it when they came over because they needed an escape. This is kind of cool too. College students, college buddies made wine under their dorm beds. Yeah. So that's about it. Anybody have any questions for us? This is going to be the last midnight hangout. You've got another one in a couple of hours. Let's say about three and a half, three hours, 20 minutes. And then you've got the final one and we'll wrap everything up. They'll bring everything together and wrap everything up. You guys hanging out all night or you guys going to sleep after this? I want to bed. I've got a couple hours to go but not all night. I was going to say David and I and Kathy, we tend to be the night else. We'll probably stay out. And Darren, it's early for you, right? Not that early. It's nearly five p.m. here. Oh, is it? So you could hang out all night too. So we're going to wrap everything up. We're going to wrap everything up. We're going to wrap everything up before the end. So thanks everybody for joining us and let's do the prize. Everybody ready?
