00:01 Now, the Death Cult, as I frequently refer to it as,
00:05 landed on the East Coast first.
00:07 So it would make sense that this is ground zero
00:09 for ingrained lawn culture.
00:11 - Yeah, Chesapeake Bay, Virginia, Maryland,
00:14 Roanoke, Delaware, this is all like
00:16 (beep) John Smith territory.
00:18 - Oh God.
00:19 You've had habitat destruction going on here
00:21 far longer than anywhere else in the United States.
00:23 So, you know.
00:24 - John Smith got off that boat
00:26 and he was like, "Set it on fire!"
00:27 - The disconnection, yeah.
00:29 They brought their own plants,
00:30 they didn't understand the native landscape,
00:33 so they just figured, "(beep) we'll get rid of it."
00:35 Got it cleared for agriculture anyway.

00:42 These are like country roads that got developed.
00:44 - Yeah, it's like that Al Crumb drawing, you know,
00:47 where he does a panel by panel illustration
00:49 of the American landscape.
00:51 Landscape, you know, dominated by the car.
00:53 - And there's a lot of flooding out here, too.
00:56 There's been, this place flooded twice.
