Well it's the friend zone, with Tim and Guy, come to the friend zone, and have a good time, yes it's the friend zone, with Tim and Guy, cause making friends is the best idea of all time.
Guten Morgen!
Und welcome!
Hello!
Guten Morgen Villagers!
Uh, hey Tim, how are you?
G'day Guy, pretty good.
Pretty good.
Happy to hear it.
We're in a room together.
You're here in New Zealand, I'm here in New Zealand.
What a thing it is.
Yeah, crickets are chirping.
Yeah.
Can I put on music in the background or that...
Can you?
Yeah, like I can, I want to.
Yeah, do it.
Absolutely.
Very cool. Yeah, I can. I want to. Yeah, do it. Absolutely. Very cool.
Yeah, I'm really into it.
Guy, how you doing, bud?
Yeah, good, man.
What's happening?
I just got back to New Zealand.
Yes.
I was in Sydney, actually.
Sydney, New South Wales.
Yep.
And prior to that, I have briefly...
Gee willikers, I've briefly visited Christchurch to see my folks.
I had a friend's stag in Wellington, the capital of New Zealand.
And I even visited Atlanta on my way back from New York City.
Atlanta, Georgia.
Atlanta, Georgia.
Famously not part of New Zealand.
Yeah, that's what it's best known for, of course.
It's the first line on its Wikipedia entry.
And all the people there, they make a real big deal about it.
They'll make sure you know it's not New Zealand.
Not New Zealand.
You turn up there, you're like, this is where they do all the animation
and they make cool comedy shows.
Donald Glover made his show here.
They get great tax breaks there.
But, of course predominantly
Not part of New Zealand they say
No one outside of Atlanta
Is thinking this is the case
And they go yeah so it's working
Genius
Genius tourism plan
Myself thanks for asking
I've been thinking a lot about getting a pet recently
And I'm just trying to whittle down what I want
That's a joint decision surely
I don't think you and I need to jointly figure out What pet I want recently and i'm just trying to whittle down what i want that's a joint decision surely or is this
i don't think you and i need to jointly figure out what pet i want i'm thinking on one end of
the spectrum i'm flattered a venus fly trap i was not considering my stake in this pet you'll be
owning this pet sans montgomery obviously yeah that's i'm i'm so sorry to say that that's true
and then on the other side of the scale is an orangutan
is what I've been thinking a lot about.
Okay, so one of those is very realistic.
The other one is a Venus flytrap.
Just joking around, guys.
We're just having a bit of fun.
A Venus flytrap, I've always thought would be a fun thing to own.
If you hate flies, do you hate flies hate flies yeah sure i can't stand them there's a loaf that
someone baked in your kitchen yeah it's the middle of summer in new zealand a lot of flies in the
kitchen no flies touching this gluten-free banana loaf which uh brought me great amusement it's so
it sucks hey so rude yeah there's only one thing worse than flies on your food and that is
no flies on your food
that's true
such an indictment
on your cooking
yeah
or something
who made the loaf Tim
uh
flatmate
flatmate did
yeah
do they like it
oh I assume so
couldn't tell you guy
couldn't rightly tell you
so back to this
orangutan thing
it definitely
I hear what you're saying
and that's why it's on the
other end of the spectrum it's an endangered animal i think would be very hard
to get the paperwork in order to keep it at the house but on the flip side we live very close to
the zoo where i am so if anything went wrong we could probably call upon the experts lickety split
that's not a good reason to own a pet living near a zoo no the, the pet is already decided. Let's take as read that Timbo's getting
a pet. So, orangutan
is on one side of the spectrum.
Venus flytrap is very
much on the other. Is there
any middle ground? Absolutely. There's
a plethora of
animals in there. People... Cats,
dogs, fish.
A bird? Would you ever own a bird?
Do you know? Birds have got to fly, man. And I know a lot ever own a bird? Do you know?
Birds have got to fly, man.
And I know a lot of people make a similar argument for orangutans,
but my one would be kept pretty happy.
You literally have to clip their wings.
You know that horrible saying?
Yeah.
That comes from somewhere.
And the place where it comes from is real life,
when you actually have a bird and you've got to clip their wings.
So that they can't do the one thing that birds like doing the best.
Yeah, exactly.
How sh... yeah.
Bird breaking away on foot is just grim.
Unless it's...
I'm imagining it packing up all its stuff in a little satchel.
What are they called?
A little spindle?
Bindle.
A bindle.
You would say spindle.
A spindly bindle. For a say spindle. A spindly bindle for a spindly bird.
And just walking out.
Spindles, bindles.
There's a good little, you know, business opportunity for you there.
Is that for me when I start my new life?
Yeah.
On a deserted island.
Spindles, bindles.
I don't know why you're developing businesses when you're on a deserted island.
Is that to come back with? Or in case anyone comes along, you don't want to you're developing businesses when you're on a deserted island. Is that to come back with?
Or in case anyone comes along, you don't want to look unprepared?
I've not just been sat here doing nothing.
No, no, no.
I've started a lot of very good enterprises.
Look at this business proposal.
We've got spindle spindles over here. out venture to make those cloth based stick bags that you leave home with but place them on top of
a cd holder that didn't work out too well and then this over here so glad you asked dishes and fishes
so you may be familiar and fishes or dishes and fishes dishes and fishes you may be familiar with
the concept of having a fish inside of a platform show or something like that.
I mean, only once I think is a joke on a TV show.
But this is sort of taking the reverse twice with that in that we're talking about dishes and we're putting them inside the fish.
That can't be good for the fish.
You wouldn't have thought so and you'd be right.
So you have been sat here doing nothing absolutely brainstorming is uh wow something would say is when you're by yourself
it's hard to keep track of what's a good idea what's not there's no bad ideas in the brainstorm
no that is untrue it is completely untrue isn't it oh yeah Hey let's make Jared Fogle our spokesperson
Terrible idea
Subway
Back to the drawing board with you
Um look
People have written us
And it was a long time ago that some of these messages came through
Some of them are recent
Uh this
Some of them aren't
Uh I'll go
Are we going through a door together?
Come on mate
Have some fortitude
Having a bit of fun making those noises
Grab the reins
Hello you beautiful boys
G'day writer
I hope this message reaches you before the last friendzone
Tough I fear I am too late
There is no last friendzone
Yeah friendship Make it last forever Friendship never ends Last friend zone. Tough, I fear. I am too late. There is no last friend zone.
Yeah, friendship.
Make it last forever.
Friendship never ends.
If you want to be my lover.
I saw that the Spice Girls are reported to be putting together some sort of reunion package.
This isn't the letter anymore.
Guys, bond it off. In which they would all drag down 10 million either dollars or pounds each.
I mean, how could you not?
Just fucking get together for a week.
Who would hold that back?
Posh, surely.
No, I think I was reading it,
and she has agreed to the deal under the proviso that she does not need to sing.
Hmm.
Fair enough.
So what are you getting $10 million for at that point?
Just turning up somewhere?
It was very vague and unclear.
But, but, I will tell you this.
Yeah?
It was, it's been widely reported on.
They all met at one of the five Spice Girls members' house.
And Victoria Beckham posted a photo on Instagram to say something along the lines of
It's happening. Fucking good to be with the
girls.
Who do you reckon's got the short end
of the stick out the arse end of that
Spice Girls career?
I don't know, man. It depends
what you're measuring against. I wonder what
Emma Bunton's up. She's a radio host.
Is she? Yeah. Oh, that's cool. That's fun.
Yeah.
Since then,
oh, sorry,
this podcast has been
a staple in my life
since I discovered it
halfway through season one.
Since then,
I can confidently say
we have become friends.
Although I will miss
your beautiful Kiwi accents,
I'm happy you two
are finally free.
I wanted to leave you
with one little story.
Although your torment
is just begging
others has only begun
maybe ending
since episode 1
death blight
oh I say I say
since episode 1
death blight has been
one of my favourite things
on the internet
a true guiding compass
that makes surviving
another year worth it
knowing it may be
the last place I hear
you two together
raises the stakes even more
in anticipation of the
first episode
I watched the movie and felt it perfectly reasonable to watch it twice the second year the mistake may have been Oh wee.
How much did you drink, fella?
I feel as if...
We on the Dettol.
We were drinking some floor cleaner,
because that is an ill-considered decision.
Nothing wrong with Dettol.
There is if you're drinking it, though.
Oh, absolutely not.
The mistake may have
been this year when I
drunkenly fired it up
three times in a row
I feel as if I have
come to a point where
there is no turning
back what I failed to
realize is that by
2030 I will have
seen the movie 140
times by 2040 350
times I feel Lane
has tricked me as I
also now feel trapped
in that hotel condemned
to an eternity of
Kevin James body shaming.
Thank you both again for all the hours and hours of content.
A true fan and a true friend,
say my frickin' name,
Zachary Mullen Bernstein.
Great name.
Do you think he was Bernstein way back in the day
and then got mixed up with himself?
I only just know that this uh sort of cultural phenomenon exists so
i'm really pushing the edges of my familiarity with it but i'm going to say yes but uh he just
spelled it differently than we all remembered what i'm uh not quite getting with zach's message there
is how when you i thought when he said that he fired it up three times drunkenly that was a one
off but he's doing this math based on, so his first year he did it once.
The second year he did it twice.
The third year he did it three times.
So next year, because he's come this far, and in the spirit of being an idiot, he will do it four times.
I mean, this, at some point, think about it.
This is a letter from America.
Before long.
It's a huge American holiday.
Yeah.
Say this guy settles down, uh has a family of some description
yeah every thanksgiving the entire thing until it's the whole week surrounding it now i know
some people will doubt the veracity of this statement but i anticipate us doing death blight
for another 30 years so how if what is it two hour film i can't remember the duration on that bad boy
i'd say between 1 30 and and 2 hours. 1.45.
Let's call it 2 and shave off the other end because the math is easier.
It's 60 hours, so call that 50-something.
You know, 52 hours.
What's that?
Two days and change.
Two days and nights.
Yeah.
In a bit.
And that's assuming you can stay awake for all of it.
Wow, that's a good point.
Take it from the top.
Not always the easiest job. No. Far out. Well for the message man and thank you for the math and good luck to you
uh please please drop us a line next thanksgiving kevin writes hey tim i figured you can pass this
on along to guy uh i can't i'll do that right now for you kevin i just wanted to express my
gratitude for the countless
hours of entertainment I've gotten at the
expense of your guys' sanity. You truly
are gentlemen and scholars. I had
the pleasure of being there for the second to last show
at the Bell House. I would like to say well
done. You boys and Maeve
really stuck the landing and get extra points
for style and degree of difficulty given
the mushroom intake. I was going to ask
what psychiatric meds slash narcotics you were on in order to get through the movie but you beat me
to the punch i also really enjoyed the stand-up routines tim's joke about not smelling someone
without first asking was both subtle and savage at the same time well done sir while going uh while
nobody is subtle guy proved you can't go wrong With a sheep fucking joke
We're getting a review
This is great
I'm going to put this on my comedy fest poster
I would have liked to come up
Bought a poster
And took T2 briefly
But my buddy
Who I was with
Is a real son of a bitch
And insisted on leaving right after the show
Something about a three month old daughter
I wasn't paying much attention
Real selfish bastard he is anyway putting that prick aside i'm not sure if you
guys have any posters left over that you want to sell but i'd definitely be interested finally i'm
planning to on traveling to auckland this may and would love some suggestions comedy festival on
then it is a yeah that's exactly when the Comedy Fest was on. You're in fucking luck,
my friend, Kevin. You smashed it,
mate. I'm guessing that you guys
don't know whether you'll be doing shows this far
out, and now that guy lives in New York,
he probably won't be there that time. Normally, I wouldn't
either, but the whole time zone change, hemisphere
change of season thing confused the shit out of me,
so I figured I would give myself as much
leeway as possible. Anyway, any ideas would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks again, boys.
It's been a fantastic ride, at least this side of the podcast.
I just wanted to say thanks.
I look forward to your next project,
which I hope, for your sakes, is less masochistic.
Kevin, first of all, your timeline looks hot
because that'll be during the New Zealand International Comedy Festival.
What week are you in Auckland?
I'm in Auckland the first week.
I actually think I am at the end of April.
Ah.
What about that?
The thing is that they put the festival on even after that,
which has always struck me as crazy,
but they insist on doing it.
Apparently people turn out.
So you're right in the thick of it for that.
And then beyond that, in Auckland,
I'd go to Waiheke Island for a day maybe.
That might be nice.
It's May.
Bring a sweater, certainly.
Some long trousers.
And some shorts, because you just don't know with the weather here.
Truly four seasons in one day.
Someone should write a song about it.
Dearest boys, congratulations on being done.
I'm a bit late. And also I live in Colorado
Bear capital of the USA
Bear with a B-E-A-R
Correct
That's good
Because I don't want to go through all of this again
I don't think any one of us do
But I wish I'd been able to make it to your final live shows instead
I have to content myself with paying you the $30 I would have paid for tickets thanks for all your hard work over the years i don't think
it's likely you'll read this out loud but if you do feel free to say brooke moyers
so brooke moyers thank you so much for your message thank you for your congratulations
thank you for your 30 dollars Thank you for your $30.
And can I be the first to say I have the worst idea of all time?
Go fuck yourself.
For being in Colorado?
Just felt like saying it.
Honestly, Brooke, you seem like a really nice guy.
But straight up, my guy, go fuck yourself.
Gotcha, gotcha.
Like that energy?
That is Guy speaking his truth in the moment, everybody.
So let's just, you know, keep that in mind.
Do you like Rocksteady?
Yeah, for sure.
Yeah.
I love it.
I love smoking a fatty and listening to some Rocksteady.
So sue me.
Taylor writes,
Dearest Tim Tam, T to Lou rather and guy phone 7 my dear mother
always said if you can't say something nice
don't say anything at all and then the email
stopped
it continues but
as it is so happens I have plenty of nice
things to say about you boys
TWI OAT podcast was
first brought to my attention over a beer with my
dear friend Mikey,
who mentioned you boys as something that may be up my alley.
As you boys, oh, oh, oh, sorry, in an attempt to look very cultured and cool,
I was quick to give the impression that I was already a big fan,
and thus proceeded to delve into the podcast in an effort to research my white lie.
I've never been more chuffed with a lie I've told.
Brackets, this is also a lie i once told my brother a flu uh i once told my mother a bird flew into the window of my childhood home when in actual fact i threw a dart at it at a bird holy heck hopefully
at the window rather than the definitely the birds i'm hoping the bird doesn't exist and you threw a dart at the window.
No, the bird flew in.
He threw a dart at the bird.
You know, young guy.
I don't know if it's a guy.
Young lass.
Young person.
Whatever.
Bird flies into the room.
You throw a dart at the bird.
You never actually think you're going to hit the bird.
Writer continues, I'm 24 now and Bronwyn is still none the wiser for the lie has led to
many months of giggling happiness the problem however is that i never listened to any of the
episodes in order which should any of your listeners be really late to the podcast and
this is their first step now i have to say isn't a terrible way to listen. Things somehow piece together.
It's a great metaphor for life, really.
As a little homage to this method of madness,
I've listed some thoughts I've had throughout my listen
in no particular order whatsoever.
Take them or leave them as you wish.
Guy, you may notice that I'm stopping and starting a little bit.
My recorder's running on batteries.
I'm just checking it doesn't stop at some point.
I think you're doing a grand job.
Here's some notes that writer has written.
Starting in season two, in your beautifully composed intro song,
right at the end where it finishes with the speedy season two,
I genuinely thought this was 6th of June instead of season two,
and was very confused for a long time while you keep dating every episode the same.
It's the worst idea of all time
6th of June
6th of June
it's like
that's some messaging
that's a little
easter egg for you
it's crazy
you boys mentioned
the possibility
of combining the adventures
of coffee guy
into a children's book
and I'd just like to
ensure
this is not forgotten
I can assure you
it was
I'm so sorry i know
that in the future when perhaps i have a child they will one day ask santa for this and i'd hate
to be the one to tell him or her that in fact it was never written that is yeah fair it was only
two days ago that i finally made it into a very old friend zone where mr montgomery called in i believe uh my dad your
father is mr montgomery i will call you guy i think guys dad and my very own montgomery is my
father's name i think guys dad and my very own dad steve-o would make great powers we should
tee that up sometime after a lot of thinking i don't think you should save up to buy the
mansion from grown-ups too based on the number of of bedrooms alone, I have deemed it too big,
as I feel we would never see each other.
You would never see each other.
And that would indeed be a tragedy, ignoring the fact that you boys currently live in separate countries.
I was a little angry at you during the episode, whereby you both gave Mosquitoes sympathy.
I'm not about that not one bit no this could quickly solve your problems of not having any enemies if you decide to go ahead and
deem mosquitoes to be as much tim a moment to remember the knife taken too soon auckland
airport february 22nd 2016 i've thrown you an amount of which once removing my decimal because
i'm not that rich spells out the postcode of myself here in sydney aust an amount of which Once removing my decimal because I'm not that rich
Spells out the postcode of myself here in Sydney, Australia
Of which next time you're here
Do stop by for a beer
Although Guy, it seems according to hosting
You've indeed been here
And I didn't get to see much of you
I do apologise
It's okay, I don't think that was your responsibility
Additionally
I blame Carlo Ricci
Should I ever be in New Zealand or the US of A,
I'll drop you boys a line to see what you're up to.
And if you perhaps like to go on an adventure to a local cafe or bar for a beverage,
you're good boys.
In tune, boys.
And most certainly very professional on-set boys.
I often imagine Forrest Gump saying this line each time you read it from your fan mail.
As to why, I cannot say.
You truly are the podcast that that my listening selection sucks the absolute
least should this make the podcast do feel free to say my name uh very best wishes and a four
his forehead kisses for kisses who has a gift taylor best holy heck taylor best that was a
great uh great letter and it's a real shame that it was not consumed before i was literally just in sydney for
for a stint sydney they call it yeah they call it sydney sydney sydney cyril vegas sydney australia
okay here's a nice one. Merry Christmas, my dudes.
Hope you get all the machetes and jascoosies you could need.
That is it.
Jascoosies.
Haven't thought about them in a long time. What a disgusting episode of the podcast that was,
where we conceptualized the
idea of lukewarm semen being your bathing constituent jesus yeah i think it's pretty
full-on isn't it fun to say the word mostly i don't think re-articulating exactly what we're
describing with that word which is quite light and silly i'm not going to be revisionist about
our podcast no warts and all i've always said absolutely but yeah that is what yeah what about warts and hall which is a hall and oats tribute
band that is terrible no well there would just be the oats left and warts joined the band and
somehow got first tips on name i got a good one here tim their real names i think are derrick and
john so i can quite understand going with the last names.
No, it's Daryl, isn't it? Daryl.
Daryl Hall and John Oates. And that was their full band name.
Daryl and John.
They were never called...
Hall and Oates. Yeah. Really?
Yeah.
People, they suck.
Oh yeah, so this one here, do you want me to read it to you?
Guy, I've been waiting all
few seconds this one comes from nitsan swissa good hi nissan nitsan been following you on
social media for a while now my company have a great campaign going i think your social profile
suits the product are you into sponsored content offers on your page? Something very light and fun. Thanks. Nitsan. I can tell you, Nitsan, we aren't.
We've been approached in the past.
And as desperate as we've been for the money,
we've said, get your grubby mitts off worst idea of all time.
In fact, it's been enough time,
I can reveal that at one point,
a sub-brand of the Coca-Cola Corporation
came crawling over to us in New Zealand.
We've got a local variant of it here,
and they said, we'll give you guys some money.
And we said, no, thank you.
Money?
We only deal with the people we want to deal with.
And for the here and now,
the good people at Coca-Cola Amatel
are not within the bounds.
No.
So fucking come over with a bag of money,
Coca-Cola Amatel,
and I'll do whatever you tell me.
Now.
Here we go.
Dearest Timbo and Guy Guy.
One of those is me.
Yep.
True.
I hope this message finds you well.
First of all, thank you for coming to Christchurch.
It was amazing.
Oh, that's so cool.
I'm coming back.
Please come and bring friends.
When are you there?
Dark Room, 21st to 23rd
of march great uh i'm gonna play drums i bought a drum kit okay are you good at the drums uh i am
better than you would think because most people assume i've never played and i played as a child
okay so i'm marginally better than not having played a good sell. It's a comedy show, by the way. I've just bought a drum kit for it.
It's comedy drums.
Yeah, exactly.
I would like to address some of my thoughts
on the recent Friend Zone.
60, I think.
I need to start listening to the first season again
after you good brave boys finish season three.
Is it available anywhere
as now Howl is not doing it anymore?
Or do I have to wait
till when you guys can reload it up next August-ish? What the shit? Howl aren not doing it anymore? Or do I have to wait till when you guys can reload it up next August-ish?
What the shit?
Howl aren't doing it anymore.
You're used to these podcasters' ears.
What's Howl called?
Is it still called Howl?
I think you go howl.com slash T-W-I-A-T.
Look.
Could be us.
I think it used to be us.
Do you want to punch that in
and I'll read something?
Or are you midway through that message?
There's a little bit more I want that good good message
I want that good good second half of a message
season one archives only
no we're there
still on howl everybody great news
and apparently we're on Spotify now as well
but I haven't actually verified that myself
that's a bit of fun
yeah I twisted a few arms over there
I'll tell you what.
So anyway,
you can find it on howl.fm.
If you just look up howl.fm,
or howl.fm and T-W-I-O-A-T,
it'll show up.
Two.
Oh, look at that.
That's so spiffy.
Comes right up on the Spotify.
Worst idea of all time.
That's special.
You like that, do you?
Yeah, man, it's cool.
Why aren't you married if you like it so much?
Ooh, spicy. Two. I'm sure like that, do you? Yeah, man. It's cool. Why aren't you married if you like it so much? Ooh, spicy.
Two, I'm sure Guy's idea
of you two recording a podcast
each randomly,
each week or month
about thoughts or things
you see, etc.
But I do also agree with Timbo
as you two having banter
with each other
makes for an amazing
podcast content
for our airholes.
For a kid's always a gift,
all hail Brady the Rat King
and someone named
Ben Lever from Christchurch.
P.S. I was too nervous
to say hi at the show
as you two are my heroes.
And you know what they say about meeting your heroes.
Don't do it.
Because sometimes they turn out to be baddies.
Absolutely.
And I'll tell you right now, one of us, no good.
Oh, boy.
I don't want to say which one, but woof.
Thank you very much Ben
so kind of you and yeah check out Tim's

Literally Perfect is the name of his show.
It's Guy Montgomery touring the east coast of Australia only to set foot in Alice Springs
and be killed by an Australian cockroach.
If we are playing this game, I am
actually doing a trial show here in Auckland, New Zealand
with Alice Sneddon, called
Alice Sneddon and Guy Montgomery do a perfect show
on Monday, February
12th.
This one's long.
This will be the last message I read for
this particular friendzone. Very well.

Dear you two lovely, lovely lovely men i do not
apologize for this lengthy message i've only been a fan of the podcast for yeah definitely says not
i didn't add that in i've only been a fan of the podcast for about half a year now one of my old
co-workers who's known for his roaring laughter as a big podcast fan and turn me on to you boys
while working we would constantly interrupt the silence
by laughing to him he would constantly interrupt by laughing to himself the rest of my co-workers
and i always wondered what he could possibly be listening to that made him laugh all the time
guess what it was you two lovely guys worst idea really caught on with the rest of us and i can
confidently say you have at least two fans from wisconsin yes i love that i thought
the whole premise of the podcast was absolutely absurd but exciting simultaneously for whatever
reason i was tickled by the thought of a couple silly kiwis watching the same film 52 times over
the course of a year when i heard that the first movie was grown-ups 2 it really sealed the deal
boy was i in for a treat here's a little background that may or may not provide some clarity to my excitement for Grown Ups 2.
For whatever reason, my dad has always been a fan of Adam Sandler.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of many of Sandler's classics,
but my dad watches every godforsaken film the man puts out.
Naturally, we watched the first Grown Ups around the time it was released and my dad loved it.
Because of this, my dad, my younger siblings and i constantly quoted the movie when we needed a laugh ever since then
grown-ups has always had a special place in my heart pardon me for getting a little sentimental
back to business i've had an on and off again relationship with your podcast mostly due to my
work and school but i managed to get through season one no one tells you that you're going to
be broke and jobless once you graduate from
college so recently i moved back to my hometown to pursue a master's degree in teaching i'm going
to be a spanish teacher to pay for school nerd alert to pay for school i work in their office
as a graduate assistant from september to october i plowed right through season two and three i
drive my girlfriend to work and from work every day,
so she was forced to listen to your struggles,
but is now actually quite fond of you boys.
Anyway,
wanted to let you know that I finally achieved my dream of catching up to you boys.
As unfortunate as it is,
I couldn't have done it without the eight watch penalty
that Tim so graciously added to your original 52.
So thank you.
Sorry for your suffering.
Quick disclaimer,
I meant to send this to you about five or six weeks ago,
but time just got away from me.
Better late than never, I suppose.
Don't worry.
It's almost over.
Per your advice, I haven't watched any of the movies.
Mostly because I'm waiting for the opportune moment
to play the drinking games alongside them.
But alas, I've got the time.
Well, I suppose my rambling has gone on enough.
Thank you, Timbette and Guy Montgomery,
for the countless hours of love and laughter.
And a thank you in advance for any content you plan to provide
to your loving and sadistic fans.
Sorry I couldn't be tossing any dosh your way to hashtag pay the boys soon.
Lots of kisses and love for your boys in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Say it loud and proud if this gets out in the friend zone.
Otherwise, you don't dare say it.
Randy Ribucosich.
P.S. My girlfriend and I have been dying to catch either one of your shows.
We even planned a small vacation to catch one of the last worst idea of all time live shows. But sadly, you were too far too busy. Oh my god Thank you Randy And thank you Tim For that rousing rendition I don't really know where I was going with that thought. Adios. Amigos. Oh, my God.
Thank you, Randy.
And thank you, Tim, for that rousing rendition.
Oh, he did sign off, Randy.
Sorry.
It's from a confusing email address.
That was, I mean, if I was to write a letter to someone and that was the reading that it got given, I would be over the moon.

I'll end on this one

it's a question
I'm going to leave you

contribute my thoughts

go for it mate
I'm Mike Gyson
and Batamir Klitschko
do you think the wedding party
scene in Sex and City 2 is mostly
the main character in front of a green screen
which scene sorry the wedding
did you say yeah
wedding party scene
like the reception
wedding party where he says
it looks like the Snow Queen exploded in here.
It's an interesting thought.
I like that possibility.
There's some objects they get interacted with, which would break that for me.
But you know what?
I'm going to go with it.
Yes, absolutely.
Green screen, without doubt.
