This reminds me, there's the funniest episode of conan o'brien with Russell Brand where Russell goes off in a tangent about prostitutes. Basically saying girls rather call themselves courtesans for false sense of pride for doing something socially unacceptable or something like that. He pretended to be a hooker in the shower at the end of her shift crying while desperately trying to scrub away the shame and screaming "it's okay, I'm a courtesan, I'm courtesan!"
Wish I could find it.
Bianca Bailey, if this was an episode of
Conan from the past year, it would have been April 16, 2013 or November 7, 2012.
If you have a
bit torrent client installed, (µTorrent 1.8.2 is a good one), you can download a torrent of the April 16, 2013 episode at
http://www.eztv.it. Do a search for Conan, and scroll down through the results for the dates listed above. There's some seeding activity on the November 12 episode as well, but much slower. The torrent link from
thepiratebay is still working, (the second download link at eztv).
The chances are good that
Russell Brand has told the same story on other talk shows.
It would probably take a few hours to download, regardless of your Internet speed, because the bandwidth would be coming from the few people who are seeding the file. The video is in
.mp4 format - you can watch it on a computer with
VLC Media Player. VLC is a free program that will play just about any kind of digital video file. Download the installer at
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/, if you don't already have it.
If you're not familiar with
bit torrents, here's the simple version:
1) Download, install and open a bit torrent client. This is a free app used for file sharing that allows you to upload to, and download from, other people who have all or part of a file you want.
2) Locate, download, and open a torrent file for the file you want. The client will find other people who have a complete copy, (seeder), and people who have more than 0.0%, and less than 100%, (leecher).
The client will break the file into 'chunks', usually 256 kb to 4 MB, depending on the size of the file, and the preference of the original uploader. You can download a chunk from the seeder(s), or from any leecher who has a chunk you don't have yet. You can upload any chunks you have to a leecher who does not already have that chunk. When you have all of the chunks, the client will assemble them in the correct sequence, and create the file in a permanent folder, (when incomplete, the file will be in a Temp folder).
When you have a completed file, you become a seeder. At this point, you can either continue to upload to the remaining leechers, (or those who may want to leech at a future date), or you can close the client, (known as a 'hit and run' download).
It's a bit like collecting a set of baseball cards; you don't receive all of the chunks in order. You can't open the file until you have all of the chunks. In theory, you can download an entire file if there are no seeders, but only if all of the chunks are available from one or more leechers.
