Producer Credits, Chris Gielen Birthday and Ringtone
The hosts credit Executive Producer Dave Selden and Associate Executive Producer Chris Gielen for their financial support. A humorous exchange occurs regarding the pronunciation of Gielen's name in Flemish, as he requested a specific pronunciation for a phone ringtone. The segment marks Gielen's 44th birthday and his entry into the 276 Club.
Belgium is facing a significant internal rift between its French-speaking and Flemish-speaking populations, with some suggesting the Flemish region could rejoin the Netherlands. Simultaneously, Belgian entities are reportedly suing Google over unwanted search links. The hosts characterize the country's political and legal situation as increasingly fractured and eccentric.
A listener from Belgium named Thomas de Krik informs the hosts that the English term "poo-pooing" has a different connotation in Flemish. In the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium, "poop" refers to one's posterior, making the phrase sound vulgar to local ears.
