This might be a silly question, but what do you do with the beached?

這可能是一個愚蠢的問題，但你是如何處理那些被淹死的人的？

Well that's a question.

嗯，這是個問題。

The small Canadian town of Trout River is trying to figure out right now.

加拿大的特勞特河小鎮現在正試圖弄清楚。

An 81 ft beast of a whale washed up on one of its rocky beaches last week.

上週，一條81英尺長的鯨魚被衝到了它的一個岩石海灘上。

As food in its humongous stomach begins to rot, decompose bacteria proliferates.

當它巨大的胃裡的食物開始腐爛時，分解細菌就會大量繁殖。

And that bacteria in turn begins to feed on the whales, innards microbes called anaerobic method.

而這種細菌又開始以鯨魚為食，內臟微生物稱為厭氧法。

Again, start to break down molecules and release methane gas into the sealed environment, blowing that fucker up like a birthday party balloon wait too long and the whale might explode.

同樣，開始分解分子並向密封的環境中釋放甲烷氣體，把那該死的東西像生日聚會的氣球一樣吹起來，等得太久，鯨魚就可能爆炸了。

It's a cool concept, but you don't really want that if your trout River bringing an unassuming gentleman to sort of poke it with a stick and you're gonna get the same results.

這是一個很酷的概念，但如果你的鱒魚河帶著一個不起眼的紳士來那種用棍子戳它，你真的不希望這樣，你會得到同樣的結果。

So what do you do?

那麼你是怎麼做的？

Well, you really have two options.

那麼，你真的有兩個選擇。

You can either airlift the dead whale back into the ocean so that its carcass can feed an entire ecosystem of life for decades.

你可以把死鯨魚空運回海洋，這樣它的屍體就可以養活整個生命生態系統幾十年。

Side note Radio lab has an awesome animation of how this process works and you can find that link in the description or you can bury the whale somewhere on land.

題外話 無線電實驗室有一個很棒的動畫，說明這個過程是如何進行的，你可以在描述中找到這個鏈接，或者你可以把鯨魚埋在陸地的某個地方。

Both options are going to be really expensive and that's public money, A.

這兩個方案都會非常昂貴，而這是公共資金，A。

K.

K.

A.

A.

Tax money, a.

稅收的錢，一個。

K.

K.

A.

A.

Your money.

你的錢。

But if you do nothing, the methane gas along with the ammonia and hydrogen sulfide are going to get really smelly, really fast.

但是，如果你什麼都不做，甲烷氣體連同氨和硫化氫將變得非常難聞，非常快。

Side note ammonia is the one that smells like cat piss and hydrogen sulfide is the one that smells like rotten eggs And methane is the Fart one.

題外話 氨是聞起來像貓尿的那個，硫化氫是聞起來像臭雞蛋的那個，甲烷是放屁的那個。

You're gonna have to do something trout river and and before you say anything because I can, I can see the look in your eyes.

你必須做一些鱒魚河，在你說什麼之前，因為我可以，我可以看到你的眼睛的表情。

Don't think about blowing it up.

不要想著把它炸掉。

We tried that already in Portland Oregon in 1970s, it had to be said the Oregon State Highway Division not only had a whale of a problem on its hands, it had a stinking whale of a problem thudding noises that you hear.

1970年代，我們在俄勒岡州的波特蘭已經嘗試過了，不得不說，俄勒岡州公路局不僅有一個鯨魚的問題，它還有一個臭鯨魚的問題，就是你聽到的砰砰的聲音。

That's thousands of pieces of whale carcass showering unsuspecting passersby in what I'm sure still remains the most traumatic experience of their lives apart.

那是數以千計的鯨魚屍體向毫無防備的路人噴灑，我相信這仍然是他們人生中最痛苦的分離經歷。

Car over a quarter of a mile from the blast site was the target of one large chunk.

距離爆炸點超過四分之一英里的汽車是一個大塊的目標。

The passenger compartment literally smashed, fortunately no human was hit as badly as the car.

乘客艙真的被砸碎了，幸運的是沒有人像車一樣被砸得很慘。

However, everyone on the scene was covered with small particles of dead whales.

然而，現場的每個人都沾滿了死鯨魚的小顆粒。

It just goes to show you can't blow up all your problems.

這只是表明你不能把所有的問題都炸掉。

Sometimes you have to hunker down and invent the portal gun.

有時你必須蜷縮起來，發明傳送門槍。

Are we, are we working on this about sucking time?

我們，我們是否正在研究這個關於吸食的時間？

You may have noticed that sometimes I disappear for a few weeks or months without any message of where I've gone and I'm sorry about that, but I don't know if you're like this, but I can't seem to stop jumping around to different projects like I did this sketch comedy channel called Dick soak, which you can check out or the electronic ep new disguises, which you listen to on Spotify.

你可能已經注意到，有時我會消失幾個星期或幾個月，沒有任何關於我去哪裡的消息，對此我很抱歉，但我不知道你是否也是這樣，但我似乎無法停止跳槽到不同的項目，比如我做了這個叫迪克-蘇克的小品喜劇頻道，你可以去看看，或者電子版的ep新偽裝，你在Spotify上聽。

Uh, But I'm back for the Nerd writer for a little bit.

呃，但我回來了，為書呆子作家做了一點事。

Hopefully, I'm gonna try to separate it into like season, so six or 10 episodes.

希望我嘗試把它抽成像季，所以6或10集。

Um, and hopefully this is the beginning of a stretch.

嗯，希望這是一個延伸的開始。

Um, so thanks for sticking with me.

嗯，所以謝謝你堅持和我在一起。

Uh, and I will see you next time.

呃，下次見。
