Oh, okay.[00:00:08] Remy: Wow.Corey Laughlin from Twitter.I always said. I always said Laughlin.[00:00:17] Cory: Everybody does. I get used to that.[00:00:19] Remy: Sure.I guess Laughlin would be like. There would be a U and a G H instead of just an F.[00:00:27] Cory: Yeah, that's what I mean. There are. There are Laughlins out there that are. That are Irish or Scottish descent.I'm not those.What are you. What are. Comes from a different. So, dad. So Laughlin comes from, actually French Laflamme.And before that. Before that, it was.It was Kemner. Q U E M E N E U R Ken, here's the story, please.So Papa Urvay or whatever came over from Britain, from the extreme northwest of France, and he moved to Canada, moved to Quebec, and he set up on the Ile D'Orleans in the St. Lawrence Seaway, just north of or just northeast of Quebec City. And he was tired of. As the story goes, he was tired of boats running ashore on the island. It's a pretty big island in the middle of this gigantic river, essentially. And so he started building bonfires to act as kind of an ersatz lighthouse.And so they started calling him La Flamme. Was French, at least at the time, or maybe still is for bonfire or slang for campfire or bonfire or something like that. And so then it just kind of stuck. And so we've seen actual documents of Louis Kemner D. Leflam, which means that just call D being called being or being said, said, like Leflam. So eventually it just.It got Anglicized.They were happy living in Quebec until the Homestead act happened. And then all of a sudden, they ended up. All of a sudden they ended up in Vermont.Funny how that works. And then made their way down to. Unlike all the cool Acadians and French Canadians, they didn't keep going to go to Louisiana. They stopped in Kansas. And here we are.So that's Dad's side of the family. Well, that's where the name comes from.Also has a fair amount of Welsh in there. And Mom's side is 100% German, therefore, you know.[00:03:03] Remy: Excellent. What are you drinking? What is that?[00:03:05] Cory: I am drinking spent Oktoberfest. Because it is the last day.It is the official last day of Oktoberfest, because I believe Oktoberfest runs through the first Sunday in October, if I remember correctly. Not that my mom's family is from northern Germany. In fact, we're going There in December. Um, my mom and my brother and my son and. And my, My niece, we're gonna go visit the. We're gonna go. We're gonna go and. And remind ourselves why we left in the first place.Why the family left. I suppose.[00:03:40] Remy: Amazing.I. I'm drinking Modelo.[00:03:44] Cory...
