For those who don't have bluesky. That's going to be fun if it makes it into an episode I bet.
Being sick for anything longer than three days is unreasonable. Like okay, I get it, let's fucking wrap it up here
look at em theyre all so rainbow coded
help??????????????
great, now im being plagued by images of tom and sam smoking a fat blunt in a random park in czechia.
OH MY GOD, TODAY I REMEMBERED SOMETHING THAT MAKES THIS ENTIRE SITUATION EVEN MORE HILARIOUS.
so. each country has a unique telephone code, to make routing of international calls easier, and also to disambiguate between identical phone numbers that might come from vastly different places on earth. their distribution roughly correlates with geographic location: for example, most of north america starts with 1, all of africa starts with 2, etc.
here is a map from wikipedia that illustrates this.
anyway. guess what number belongs to czechia?
420.
all international calls coming from czechia begin with "+420".
and THAT is the country where tom scott encounters a weed dealer during jetlag.
now i have yet another reason to be proud of where i live in.
good heavens.
