Speaker 363.52s - 66.76s

Somebody out there deserves to be recognized.

Speaker 168.6s - 82.52s

And the men's room knows just who it is. So to you, we say, bottoms up, sailor. You're the toast of our shot of the day.

Speaker 382.9s - 106.22s

Drink time, it is as usual. We head to Zit Drink Test and Steve PERSON a throw hill to find out who are toasted. Yes, indeed. And today, we toast Z. Z.Not the letter Z. The letter Z is not earned the right to be toasted. Out of one million words in the English LANGUAGE language, how many words do you believe begin with the letter Z? You've got one million words. How many?$1,500. All right, what do you think of Miles? Start with the letter Z. You got one million words, how many? $1,500.

Speaker 2106.86s - 107.86s

All right, what do you think of Miles PERSON?

Speaker 3108.54s - 111.42s

Start with the letter Z? Start with the letter Z. I will say...

Speaker 0111.42s - 112.58s

One million words, how many?

Speaker 3114.32s - 122.02s

I'll say 220. 220. Mike, what are you thinking? One million words, how many in the English language start with the letter Z? I'm going

Speaker 1122.02s - 123.34s

to say 60.

Speaker 3124.48s - 125.96s

It's more than that, Mike. Give it a little goddamn credit, right? 426 words begin with the letter Z. I'm going to say 60. It's more than that Mike. Give it a little

Speaker 1125.96s - 134.18s

goddamn credit, right? 426 words begin with the letter Z. That's about 0.42% of the words. And

Speaker 3134.18s - 138.9s

Zee PERSON gives itself away to the letter X. Like, no, you take xylophone. Come on Z. He ain't getting toasted

Speaker 1138.9s - 164.52s

here, my friend. No, the Z that we're toasting is now the legendary North Bend Zebra. I don't know if you know this, but they gave that fourth zebra that has not been captured, the nickname Z. And at that point, when you're nicknamed a zebra, to me, that's its name because they can't tell you different. Anyway, is it Z or Zed? It's, well, if you're in England, it's Zed PERSON. The Zed Smith PERSON. Still on the loose Northman PERSON.

Speaker 3164.66s - 176.66s

Here's the thing. It's not for lack of sightings, right? So they have all these trail cams out there. People are seeing this thing every day, multiple times a day. And it's best they can tell from the video evidence. Zee PERSON is doing great, man. Completely healthy.

Speaker 0176.98s - 183.46s

He's out there eating. One person said, well, we're a little concerned because we know there's a mountain lion in the area to which Z PERSON said,

Speaker 3184.42s - 218.92s

brother, I deal with real lions. If I kick you, it is the end of your life. Z PERSON is still out there. Now, keep in mind, there are now people out there searching for the stray animal. Let's see, what do they call themselves? I can't find her name, but they specifically look for lost animals in the Cascade Mountains.It's volunteers on horseback. They've been trying to find Zee PERSON, and they say, look, none of us has ever done a zebra before. So this is new. They don't know what to do. They don't know how to find this thing. They don't know what to do to attract it. But what's crazy is at this point, our boy Z PERSON, who I hope almost just stays free at this point,

Speaker 2218.92s - 224.42s

is an international superstar. Yeah, I'm with you. Live your life, Zee. And listen, North Bend GPE,

Speaker 0224.68s - 246s

hey man, it's got to be the coolest thing that's happened to you. I mean, the only look, you can be Enum Claw. There's a reason. No offense, Mike, there's a reason why internationally people knew about Eden Blah. North Bend, you're like, yo, we got the zebra. And apparently he keeps getting deeper and deeper into the National Forest FAC. Yeah. I think it's fantastic. Like I said in the office, it's a pack animal. But outside of that, and it was already

Speaker 2246s - 252.38s

living in the States in Montana GPE, like, unless he's missing his buddies, like there's plenty of vegetation.

Speaker 3252.78s - 270.22s

Like, he's good. And no natural predators. Just saying, Z, keep doing the thing, buddy, because here's the thing. People are more worried about Z as the zebra itself than they are about any damage or anything else they could possibly do.So, kind of a superstar bro who knew so to Z bitches god what if he mates with a

Speaker 2270.22s - 275.5s

horse what is like a whole new brand of like zebra horse they have to have made it a zebra with a horse

Speaker 3275.5s - 278.92s
