Colo guard is a one-of-a-kind way to feel more in control of your colon cancer screening through a use-at-home test with none of the prep that's required of a colonoscopy. So if you're 45 or older and at average risk, ask your health care provider about screening for colon cancer with the Cologuard test.

Do not use Cologuard if you have had adenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease and certain hereditary syndromes, or a personal or family history of colorectal cancer. False positive and negative results may occur. Any positive result should be followed by a colonoscopy, not a replacement for colonoscopy

in high-risk patients. The Coligard test is available by prescription only. Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! Hi everyone. It sounds like you're calling your cat named Freedom. Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! There was a neighbor, when I was growing up,

our neighbors had a cat named Misty, and at night they would call the cat. And I would hear, Lori was my neighbor, and I would hear her say, Misty, Misty. Do you hear her sometimes now? When it's foggy at night? Yeah.

I'm sure I've told this story, but we- Who told it? Lauren did? Yeah, I'm Lauren. My neighbor would call out, rascal! And then one time my brother and I were in the window, we went, rascal! Then we hit on the floor and she was, who said that? Who said that.

She probably knew it was you, right? They also had- I don't know, we're enough houses away that I don't know if it was obvious. They had a Newfoundland named Orpheus, who's a beautiful- Orpheus, beautiful name. Big black dog and slobbered like nobody's business.

What if I want it to be my business? And a lab called Butterscotch, who was sweet old dog. Uh huh. And a cocker spaniel named Mahogany. Oh, I love these people with their beautiful names for their dogs. Mahogany!

We met someone. Ricola! That would be a great name for a pet. Ricola! Ricola! That would be hilarious. We met someone on the tour whose dog, whose poodle was also named Pepsi.

Yes, that's true. What? After yours? Yeah. Not after mine. It's a coincidence. I mean, chronologically, yes, it was after mine. But not directly because of mine.

That's amazing. Oh, who would hate? I love the name. Our faces were on the ground. We bent over to rub our faces on the ground. We could not believe what was happening. It was incredible. Wow.

An incredible moment. This was in St. Paul, and of course that's where we were reunited with Vienna, the theater dog. I remember. I recall Vienna. Yes. That's right, yes. Very soft, very soft dog. Beautiful little dog. the theater dog. I remember. I recall Vienna. Yes, that's right, yes.

Very soft, very soft dog. Beautiful little dog. Beautiful little dog. Beautiful little dog. Beautiful little dog, I'll give you those papers. I want to talk to this beautiful little dog. Your dog is very beautiful. I couldn't get the papers to you

because the dog was beautiful. Hey, by the way, my name is Scott and I'm sitting right next to my friend Paul. I'm Paul and I'm also here. Yeah. My name's Lauren and I'm over here. Hey, what if somebody's listening to the show for the very first time? Here's what you have to know.

Yeah. Okay. Welcome, first of all. 3,000 years ago, the earth was created. Let's skip ahead. Dinosaurs actually died slowly over a peon. Let's skip even further ahead. Okay. Dinosaurs actually died slowly over chaos. Let's skip even further ahead. I just learned that dinosaurs actually died slowly over many, many, many years. Really? It wasn't just one meteor and then suddenly boom?

Slowly, slowly death. I heard they died in their sleep. Painful death. No. Painful. How do we know it's painful? They screamed and cried. The way their bones are. You can tell. They were writhing. They had trauma bones. They had trauma. And people were going to get the trauma out with their, you know, spiritual touching hands. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The cavemen.

They were like, let me lay hands on your dinosaur. You big chicken. You have trauma. Let me help you big chicken. You have trauma. You have generational trauma. So cut ahead a little bit. Cut ahead. Then man just walks out of the primordial ooze. He was kind of frog-like and he had a dick in a head.

And then he grew. Guilty. And then cut ahead a little bit more. Kane slew Abel. Yes. And murder was invented. That bit more. Kane slew Abel. Yes. And murder was invented. That's right. Good stuff.

Cut ahead even more, Noah is the only surviving human on Earth. Yes. Other than Mrs. Noah. And giraffes and zebras. And all the animals watched the two of them bone because they had to repopulate the Earth. Repopulate the Earth with their inbred offspring. Yep. And we're all two of them bone because they had to repopulate the earth with their

inbred offspring. Yep. And we're all descendants of them. Yes. Noah. And then we started a podcast. And that's well, and we were the first to do it. Yeah. Yeah. If you're just listening to this, this is the first podcast you've ever listened to. We invented it. Yeah. We're the only one. As a matter of fact, you don't have to listen to any other podcast. We pretty much cover what any other podcast is going to much cover what any other podcast is going to cover, so it's kind of consolidated into this one hour. I agree. I think you're gonna save a lot of time. Honestly, everything we talk about,

you could find on any individual podcast, but if you want all of it, come here. We're like a, and forgive me, there's no other better term for this, but we're like, when you get every soda in a soda and they call it a unalive. Yeah, that's right. It's an unalived.

And I also do listening noises really good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So you think you just, you're capable. And I'm saying this about all of us. You're capable of just responding like that and not chiming in.

Okay, it's equal then, right? It's actually worse. Worse than us chiming in? Yeah. Why are you hitting my microphone? There was like a little hair on it or something. You punched it. If there's a hair on it, it's yours.

No, it was spiky. I don't know where it came from. Porcupine. Maybe. Porcupine. In any't know where it came from. Porky pine. Maybe. Porkopine. In any case. In any case. Uno porkopine.

Uno porkopine, por favor, I will cry. In any case, we're three friends who can't focus on any one thing. No, we don't want to, we never will. We shan't. So listen to us. Speaking of focusing on one thing. Yes.

I am on a, let me see what my streak is on Duolingo. Oh, that's right. I thought you's right. You're on a riot tear. Paul has been learning. Janie doesn't listen to this so I can talk about it. I am crushing it on Raya. Paul has been learning Italian. I'm on. Trotted it out during the tour. Ninety one days.

To throw it in our faces. What did you say? And then we went to a great restaurant in Toronto and the server corrected me of how to say what I order. What did you say? What was it? I can't remember. Spagetti? I can't remember what it was, but it was some sort of pasta.

I'll have this Star Wars Spagetti. That sounds fun. It's cool. But she corrected me in that way where she said, okay, so you'll have the, and then said it the right way. And I said, I pronounce it. And then Paul just threw it in our faces. What was it?

I can't remember what it was. She was correct. Capri. She was very correct. And I knew she was correct. I just didn't want to be shamed. You were Capri. She was very correct and I knew she was correct. I just didn't want to be shamed. You were having fun. I was having a little fun with the person.

I was having fun and it was a funny interaction but then Paul then trotted out some Italian for us. I see. And what is your streak? 91 days. Novantuno. Novantuno. And do you, are you fluent now? No.

Why? 91 days? I'm not fluent. I took Italian in college for one year, I think. And I was terrible. And I did not study. I had a memory of the day where I was like, I think I would have a friend of mine, like I think I sometimes would write a friend of mine, like I think I sometimes would write a paper in English, put it in Google Translate and then have my friend who

spoke Italian edit it. Really? There were times where I just was like, I don't fucking know. I'd write a paper. Isn't it nice when you have a friend who's like, yeah, sure, I'll help you. I'll help you cheat the system. I'll do all that. What the fuck do I care?

But I think my classmates were actually really getting it and really writing the papers. I took Spanish for three years and we all had to have a Spanish name. And most people would just do the Spanish version of their own name. Yeah, of course. No, I didn't do that either.

I took Spanish. Really? You were just Lauren? My name was Concepcion. Yeah, they have to give you. Yeah, I made it up. Oh, you made it, you got to pick. Yeah. We all got name was Concepcion. Yeah, they have to give you. No, I made it up. Oh, you made it. You got to pick. Yeah. Well, we all got to pick Concepcion.

We all got to pick as well. But there was no Scott. So no. And then there were way too many Davids in the class who were David. David. So I had to be Raul. Sexy. That's so funny.

Sexy. Raul. I would like to watch you try to learn a language. Like Raul. I would like to watch you try to learn a language. Like Raul Julia. You'd like to watch me try to learn a language? I'd like to watch you try to learn a language. Okay, well come over today. Oh, I'd like to watch you try to learn a language.

Come over when? Come over tomorrow at 3 p.m. You have a lesson? I'll try to learn a language. We'll see if I can do it. I'm busy. Damn. How much time do you give him to learn?

Eight seconds. Damn. How much time do you give them to learn? Eight seconds. Years. The average time you have to be on a bowl? Yeah. I would like to see you ride a bowl. I'd like to see you ride a bowl. I'd like to ride a bowl. Have you ever ridden one in those, you know, in the bars? Mechanical?

A mechanical one? Mechanical, no, I've never done that. Have you? I have. I haven't done it. It was fun. It was fun. Did you get thrown off? Eventually, how long did you last? Three days later? Wow, that's a really I bet everyone was really annoyed that you stayed on that long. It was super fast

It must have been so loud at night when nobody was there You had to be on a bowl going this fast For three days For three days. For three days. Some things like Mechanical Bull, I feel like you guys should do before you die. I think it would be fun. What are some things like Mechanical Bull? I'll do that.

Like Mechanical Horse? Sure. Mechanical Turtle? Oh, I would love Mechanical Turtle! Just going so slow. Honestly, if I had like a big Galapagos sized mechanical turtle, I would ride it around. Yeah. If you take it down to the store. This comes out after we've been traveling together.

Yes. If we see a bar where they have a bull riding thing, I need you to do it. I'm not doing it. OK, I'll do it. I need you to do it. If you can find one in the vicinity. Yeah. Then we'll go there after the show. Interesting. This is fun. Interesting. This is fun.

OK, yeah, I'll do it. OK. It's the the the ground is soft. Now you broke your finger by sitting on it. You broke your ankle. Is this something you want to do? Well, you don't know about this. I, I in the, in the New York show, I believe I sat on my finger and broke it. Was it straight up? Yeah, of course it was. And your boat was like, Colin snapped it in half. Yeah. Like the rock snapping that cast off his arm.

His rectum did it. No, I think I just sat, I like was sitting, I was talking to my canvair and I like sat down like this on my finger and I think I broke it. Just to wake yourself up. Were you crying? No, I went, ow, in my head and then. In my head.

And then it's been about a month now, and the pain has sort of subsided. You don't do enough to help yourself get better. Let me just say, I was going to go in and get it looked at. But then you remember it, every doctor you've ever seen has been a weird quack. Yeah. Well, I was going to go in between the two legs,

and I'd literally. I beg your pardon. Head no talk. In between these two legs. I can't believe now I'm gonna go in between the two legs and I'd literally. I beg your pardon. Head no talk. In between these two legs. I can't believe now I'm ahead of you guys on this ship. But every minute of the day was taken. And then we got off of this leg, which was the longest leg we've done,

and Cool Up and I were like, let's get the nanny to put Emmy to sleep tonight because we just want to like be with each other and relax and... Don't say more. What? Don't say more. Enter the phone zone. I was going to say Fran Drescher came over.

We just want to be with each other. I was going to say Fran Drescher came over. You were saying it so make love. No, I meant him. And we... But you were looking at me. I was scared he was going to say it. As we got onto the plane, we got a text from our nanny saying she had COVID and we're like, well,

I have COVID. Would you like me to give the baby COVID or no? I think, yeah, it's hard. My, we have a babysitter who is amazing. I love and she has been busy this week and is gonna be busy next week with another client situation. She's also a doula. The good ones are always busy. And it's and we're I'm like missing her this week because we only have her for a couple of hours.

Yes, you want to sing that Puff Daddy song about her? Every step I take. Sting gets a million dollars a year for that or something, right? Speaking of Sting. Because he wasn't asked if he could use that song. I believe we've spoken about this. I think we talked about it on our text chat. Oh. Yeah.

The MTV still produces things, like they're involved somehow with Yellowstone. Okay. Right. So there'll be like a production card for MTV productions. Right. And it includes Sting singing MTV from I don't want to. MTV.

From Money for Nothing. But it's such a bad edit. Yeah. It really is like somebody just did it like a placeholder kind of thing. They're like, ah, it's good enough. Well, it also, I believe you can use a second and a half or something.

So it might be. So it abruptly, there's like such a sharp fade out so you don't hear any of the music from Money For Nothing. And it drives me fucking crazy. I'm sorry, Paul. Are you okay? I'm sorry, this is spoiling Yellowstone. Well, it's not just Yellowstone, it's other things.

Okay, Paul. Come on. But are you gonna be okay? I don't know. I'm just wondering. TBD. Paul was really upset. He's not okay.

He's really not okay. We need to talk about Paul. He's not okay. We need to have one conversation about Paul. We need to talk about Kevin. We need to talk about Kevin. We need to talk about Kevin. What if that was about Home Alone?

That's funny. They do need to talk about him because they don't pay enough attention to that kid. They really do. If you think about Home Alone is really fucked up. Is a Home alone situation possible? What? Not anymore.

Which part? Leaving a child or a child setting up a lab or booby traps? Wait, why didn't they just call someone to go over to their house? This is what I assume. I just remember them. They're friendless. Everyone hates them. Yeah. I hate them. Yeah, I hate them. Because they don't have a single neighbor to call.

The entire neighborhood hates the fact that there are so many kids in this house. Plus they're rich. They have this really nice house and everyone's like, fuck these people. Yeah. And so that- But everyone lives on their block

and also probably has the same thing. But like the forgetting, okay. So we've occasionally we've- Left me at the supermarket. Yeah. No, I'll say like, where's Georgia, so we've occasionally we've. Left me at the supermarket. Yeah. No, I'll say like, where's Georgia, our dog. Yeah. And.

She's gone. And Cool Up has like taken her outside and then forgotten to let her in. Yeah. She's done her business. But she's waiting outside or she's gone. And she's just waiting outside like by the door. I've done that.

I've forgotten many times. Yeah, so that's the same thing. That's a home alone situation But for the same thing it is Right, but it's exactly you are home thing. Yeah, but we're alone because we don't have the dog Dogs just outside. Yeah, not home. What if, what if the movie Home Alone was, they just went outside. They went outside. And then they're like, Oh my God, we left Kevin in that house. Let's lower the stakes for Home Alone. Let's say they went just down the street to where there was a park and they left Kevin alone. Would it be as good of a movie?

Let's say this movie is seven minutes long. Okay. Then I can watch it a bunch of times. But he still sets the booby traps. So when the family comes back, they're all maimed and disfigured. Yes. Is it still a great movie? Yes. Do I want to watch it all the time? Yes. It is funny to me that there's a generational divide between me and a lot of people that I know who regard certain movies as very good movies. Yeah, yeah. And it's like, I was just too old when that movie came out.

Yeah. And it's done. We did the movie Miracle on newcomers, which is a hockey movie. I listened to it. It's all about the 1980 Olympics. And we didn't like it because we thought it was boring. But then I got a lot of comments, people were like,

I can't believe you didn't like this. I couldn't even listen to the episode because you didn't like it. I'm like, what, that's just what happens. You liked it when you were a kid. I'm watching it now. Well, also I think- If you really had your blinders off,

you might see how it's that interesting. I think a lot of people- It's completely formulaic, you know, kind of like, yeah, this is what it is. I'm like, I get it. A lot of people were really excited when it actually happened.. I think a lot of people. It's completely formulaic, you know, kind of like, yeah, this is what it is. A lot of people were really excited when it actually happened, and I think that. Do you think, well, no, and I agree with that.

I mean, I'm like, I understand, and we talked about. Do you believe in miracles? Do you have people who are upset with your opinions on Scott Hasen's scene? Yeah. Who cares? Nothing but, right? Who cares? I'm not sitting here saying I care.

It's just a funny show. I'm just sitting here saying. Who. I'm just sitting here saying, that's exactly what I'm saying. My show is just silly fun. I think people do take it kind of personally because I guess they feel like it's a judgment on their taste. It's not.

No, it's not. I find it to be interesting when someone hasn't seen something for 30, 40 years and is coming to something new with fresh eyes and then hearing their take. And I think a lot of people do like that. Well, and I think our reviews are typically like, I wish they kissed more.

It's like, we're not really giving a real review. You know, it's just, it's for fun. I wish they kissed more like on three. I wish the hockey boys kissed each other. Yeah, you're always doing a dipole and it's weird. Stop kissing me. Stop it. I love you. He's doing like the Bugs Bunny thing where he starts

the Pepe the Pew situation. Starting at your arm and moving his way up. That's the Addams family. No, oh, what is the Pepe the Pew thing? He starts at the hand and then goes, I love you. I thought he just got her in a fucking chokehold. What's her name? Cutting off her oxygen.

Never named the cat. Really? It doesn't pass the Vectal Test. Also if you saw a cat and a skunk next to each other, you would never in a million years think they were the same animal. I might think they're fucking. Yeah, yeah of course. Has a... because they look so guilty. Has a... an animal of a different species ever had sex with an animal from a different I think it happens all the time like monogamously oh that's interesting oh I finally said something interesting like our a bear and a lion a monogamous come monogamous couple because anything will fuck anything what man that's the way the world works well they will fuck it once dogs not, they're the same species, but they,

but they mate different sizes, different, they'll do anything. Yeah. Sure. What's up with that? That's a slippery slope. Are we going to put a stop to that? Dogs are like, look, I know you're another dog. That's all I need to know. Yeah. You're a chihuahua. I'm a great dame. Let's have a good time. Let's make lots of money. I wonder if dogs... You're a chihuahua. I'm a great dame. I wonder if once they,

is it like once they do that, they won't go back? You know, like, oh, I- Like once you go chihuahua? Yeah, you always go wah-wah. I mean, my dog is half chihuahua and then half Yorkie Maltese. Right, so some shenanigans were going on. A York half Yorkie Maltese. So some shenanigans were going on.

A Yorkie and a Maltese had sex and then that dog had sex with a Chihuahua. Yeah. And I only know this because the person who dropped them off at the pet store knew that- Had a film of it. Had the parents, they had the parents. So that is their litter.

Is that their type then after that? You know what I mean? Yeah. I only go for Chihuahuas. That's interesting. I always find that interesting in the reality shows is like. And by the way, I didn't buy the dogs. They were at a groomer dropped off

by a woman who owned the dog. Okay, groomer. All right, we have to take a break. Ha ha ha. ["Dreams of a New World"] Quelle dommage, it's just Navage. I made that slogan up. Congestion from sinuses, allergies or a cold can be all consuming.

This message is brought to you by the Cologuard test. The Cologuard is a one of a kind way to feel more in control of your colon cancer screening through a use at home test with none of the prep that's required of a colonoscopy. The Cologuard test is the only FDA approved non-invasive screening test that looks for both altered DNA and blood in your stool. The American Cancer Society recommends that if you are at average risk, you begin screening for colon cancer at age 45. And because many people with early stage colon cancer have no symptoms, colon cancer screenings are crucial for early detection.

Plus, most insured patients pay zero dollars. And if follow-up care is needed, this is usually covered by insurance. With zero downtime, no special preparation, and a use-at-home screening test that's delivered right to your door, it's time to put your health first. So if you're 45 or older and at average risk, ask your health care provider about screening for colon cancer with the Coligard test. You can also request a Coligard prescription today at coligard.com slash podcast. Do not use Coligard if you have had adenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease, and certain hereditary syndromes, or a personal or family history of colorectal cancer. False positive and negative results may occur. Any positive results should be followed by a colonoscopy. Not a replacement for colonoscopy in high-risk patients.

I would not wanna ask somebody that on a date because if I were not the type, I'd feel bad. I don't think I could say a descriptor of my type. And I don't think it would be even a per, like it's like maybe more personality based. But I feel like people ask that question, they don't say personality. No one ever says personality based.

Really? They always just go like, oh yeah, you know, tall, muscular. Attractive. Yeah. I like people who look good. You know, the world's most beautiful supermodels. Spends all day thinking about protein and whey. Yeah. I don't think I have a type,

Wow. What do you consider good? That's a Quora? I haven't been having such a Quora. Someone when I was 23... He said That's a quora. I haven't been having such a quora. Someone when I was 23, someone I was doing. You said that's a quora. When I was 23, someone I was doing. That's a quora.

That's a quora. Uh-huh. Someone I was doing a play with said my type. He goes, oh, I see what your type is. He was like, bad girl, dress nice. Bad girl, dress nice? Was this a caveman? Yes.

I see type. But what does that mean? Bad girl, dress nice. Like girls who were kind of tough, but they had good style? Like, I think it was because it was like, yeah, women who were sort of like, they dress like a goody two shoes. But really, that whole Babylon dress, nice, like nice, like they're sweet. Yes. So it's unsuspecting badness. Yeah, yeah. Like wearing their Sunday best or something, but underneath there. Is that true? I don't know, maybe.

Wanna feel old? This is Sweet Pea now. Sweet Pea is 160 years old now. 160, how old would Sweepy be? He'd be so old. Sweepy would be, because I, well, when was Sweepy introduced? You wanna over under this?

Sure, sure. All right, Sweepy. I don't know how old Popeye is, when Popeye was introduced. I'm gonna say Sweepy was introduced in 1939. I'm gonna say, Sweepee was introduced in 1939. I'm gonna say over. Over, it's later than that, is what you're saying, over. Yeah.

Yeah, I think it's later than that too. I'm gonna say 1945. I'm gonna say 1951, cause they finally got to share a bed, much like I love Lucy. You are both incorrect. 1933, July 28. Shit!

Jesus. When did Bluto become Brutus and why? Okay, this is a good question. When did Bluto become Brutus? This pops right up. 1957. Wow, that's late. become Brutus, this pops right up. 1957. Wow, that's late.

His name was changed to Brutus because he was incorrectly believed by King Features, the Paramount Pictures distributors of the Fleischer Studios, later famous studios cartoons, owned the rights to the name Bluto. Earthquake, earthquake. Earthquake is happening right now. Oh yeah, wow. in the middle of a show

Now I'm shaking expected. Yes, that alert shaking happening still going on. Wow. This is incredible to happen during a show I don't feel it no more. I don't think it is. Wow. Please get back to Bluto. Maybe it is. Can we please Earth? It says, yeah, still shaking, my friends are saying.

Still shaking? Yeah, it does feel like it is. The only one I got was holy fuck. So someone texted you holy fuck? Yes, let's see. Their last act on Earth. Mike said the house shook so fucking much. Oh wow.

I got holy fuck, I'm shaking, holy fact. Stuff fell off the shelves. I'm crying. I'm crying. Whoa, I was outside and saw the building shake. My friend said it sounded like a bomb. Someone said it felt like someone hit my home. Whoa.

Is everyone all right? Do we need to pause to check in with anyone? Let's take a brief pause. Let's take a brief anyone. Let's take a brief pause. Let's take a brief pause. Let's take a brief pause. We'll be right back. And we're back. We're back.

After a brief earthquake break. Brief earthquake break. Everyone's okay. Everything is all right. People just outside this very structure didn't even feel it. Good. But we did.

We did. That was, the table was really shaking. The table was shaking. The table was shaking. And I am hearing from friends that it was very loud in some areas and like a train or like. Yes, I was told it sounded like an explosion. Things fell off the walls. A friend of mine in my neighborhood said,

she was outside, saw the buildings shaking. Oh my God. Yeah. That's really crazy. Yeah. I've never had that experience. I think I've always been inside for every earthquake. And have you ever been in an earthquake?

I've been in a car once. Was that weird? I've been in a car once. Oh, during an earthquake? Oh no. Have you ever been on the toilet during one? Cause I have, the first one I ever felt I was on the toilet and I thought I was gonna pass out.

I didn't know what was happening. I was visiting. You thought it was a result of what was happening to you? I honestly, I thought I was having my period and I was gonna like pass out on the floor. Like I just thought it was like a weird, like blood related thing. Oh my God.

And then I was like, and my whole body was like discombobulated. That's not me, it's the earth. I was in the shower for the Northridge one, which we felt all the way down in Northridge County. That was a huge one. It was really big and it like jerked you around. And I was like, I make it.

That was right before I got to town. Right before? Yeah, I got to town I think like a month or so after that. Wow. And it was still. Everything was it was still everything was still shaking. Everything was still shaking. After they happened, I still feel weird in my head, do you? I still feel kind of like, I'm OK, actually.

I always feel a little like, I can't. Do you need a hug? Not from you. For me, earthquake go like this. Earth Earth starts shaking. I say, is that an earthquake? Then when I realize, oh no, it is an earthquake. It's still happening. And then I start thinking,

I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I never know what I'm supposed to do. And then it stops. I know. Well, our little phones told us, take cover. It's like we should get under the table. Which by the way, What if we all do?

Aren't you supposed to make the triangle of sadness? I mean, I guess it would make sense to get under, that ceiling fan. Could have fallen on your head. Fuck. I've been sitting here in this hole for years. Yeah. The blades would just go, of course. Yeah. You know what? Um, this last one, we missed it.

You flew home the day of it, right? The last, uh, we were on tour and you flew home and then an earthquake happened that night. Do you remember this? Approximately one week ago. You remember? This sounds vaguely familiar. I know, it was happening more lately. So there was one about a week ago when we're taping this

and Cool Up and I stayed in Minnesota that day and we did not experience it, which we were sort of like, wow, we missed COVID from the nanny, we missed the earthquake, we're really lucky. But the one part we weren't lucky about was it happened about 9 p.m. or something like that in California time.

We had just fell asleep in Minnesota time and our phones went off for it saying warning, shaking, shaking. I was just- I didn't get that warning. Where are you getting this warning from? Oh, you have to sign up for this like app or whatever that gives you an earthquake alert kind of thing.

You got it, right? You got it. I don't think so. Lauren, you got the earthquake alert. Lauren, you're an old maid. Earthquake alert app? You got it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think so. Lauren, you got the earthquake alert. Lauren, you're an old maid. Earthquake alert app? I don't know what it is, but anyway,

I would think that it would be like geotrack you so that if you weren't in California, it wouldn't wake your ass up. Early warning. That's my one complaint. You need to do the California early warning earthquake app or something. Guess what? It wasn't so early this time. You're telling me I'm shaking. You're telling me I'm shaking

and you're telling me I'm shaking, I know. Speaking of warnings, I have to share this with you, this audio, that my friend Alicia Tobin sent me. This is shared audio. Shout out to Alicia. I'm sharing my audio with you now. This was a reel on Instagram where this guy has this insane purple sports car.

And so people take pictures with it and stuff like that. And if he sees them doing it, he presses a button on his keys that makes the car sound like it's revving up and it scares the shit out of people. That's funny. But before he does it, he's like, you see the people in the distance

and you see like his hand and keys in the foreground and he says don't touch my car please every time Don't touch my car, please. Don't touch my car, please. Don't touch my car, please. What makes the car crazy? Don't touch my car, please. What makes the car crazy, Paul? Describe the car, if you would. It's a purple sports car.

Honestly, it looks pretty cool. Don't touch my car, please. I mean, it's bright purple. I guess people are it's bright purple. I guess people are fascinated with bright purple things is the lesson I take. Since the dawn of time man has been fascinated by purple cars. I'm pretty fascinated. I don't think there are enough colors for cars. I probably talked about this. I often feel like why don't we have a every color car? Like why aren't there cars that are commonly pink and blah,

blah, blah. I guess because not enough people want them. And that's why you have to go to a place to get a wrapped special paint. But I feel like if like, if pants on the ground, if I think they would, I think people would want them if they were common, if I could get a pink car, I'd get a pink car, but not enough people, dear.

But how do you know? We don't offer them. Because maybe they try. I don't think so. In the 50s. Like in Japan, there are a lot of different color cars. Yeah. Oh, here we go. Oh, Japan. Lauren loves Japan so much. Tell us more about Japan. I would take pictures of the cars because they had a lot of fun names like Carol.

Like the style would be like, yeah. Different names like that and stuff. It was really cute. And you would take a picture and then what happened? And then I posted on Instagram and everyone would go fucking crazy and they loved it so much. I went viral and I got a million dollars.

Wow! It happened. When you go viral, they send a check to you? The internet. Well, the president speaks, send a check to you? The internet. Well, the president speaks. The internet contacts the president. The president. I want to say congratulations on your life.

It went viral. It's simple. You make a video, everybody watches it. You're still. It's simple. Lauren went viral. It's simple. You make a video and everyone watches it.

And you go viral. Everybody watch a video and everyone watches it. By the way, everybody watch. Everyone watch. Never mind. Well, now we're going to work on our Kamala impressions. Yeah. I don't even know where to begin. Do you think you just fell from a coconut tree?

Okay, that's not it. I gotta get on SNL doing Kamala. You gotta. You gotta. Oh, so when Tim Walz was picked as the vice president, we were running late, I was like, what famous person will Lorne Michaels leapfrog over his regular cast of people to offer?

And it was Steve Martin. I know, and then he said, he said no, and he's like, I just look like, I just have one pair of glasses. Yeah, I don't do impressions. He said you should do someone who can do a really good impression of him. Yeah, like maybe someone on the cast of your show.

Probably James Austin Johnson could do it, I'm sure. Should do double duty. Oh right, he's busy. He's way too busy. I don't even know. We're available, that's all we're saying. We're available. We survived the earthquake of 2024.

So you know we're hearty. I mean, I think if we all did it at the same time. We could do it at the same time. We could do it at the same time. Yeah. Yeah. What's a famous thing that he says? He says, if you'll get up off the couch to debate me. Go get up off the couch to debate me.

Okay. Three, two, one. Go get up off the couch to debate me. That worked. Well, no, is the three of us? Obviously. Obviously. Well, no, it was the three of us. Obviously. We captured. Here's why. We captured his actual pitch

because of our three voices combined. Yes. It's actually exactly what he's saying. And the three facets of his personality as well. Yes. Yeah. That was perfect. He is one, two, three.

Yeah. Honestly, Lauren, give us a call. Honestly, Lauren. But none of this splitting a paycheck. We want three separate paycheck. Can't wait to watch that movie about SNL in the early days. It's going to be so fun. Isn't that the third one they've done?

Wasn't there another one? Or was that a third movie? Was it National Lampoon and they had some people? Yes. But this one, I saw the trailer for it and it's like, Lauren, Loone, I was calling it. Loone or Loone? Loone Michaels. Loone Morcels.

Let's just call him Loone Morcels from now on. So we don't get in trouble. What are you, what's dinging on your phone? It wasn't my phone dinging, it was his phone. I accidentally turned my ringer on and I apologize. This is a dingless podcast. What happened? This is a podcast. This is a dingless podcast. What happened? This is a dingless podcast.

It makes Lorne Michaels look like this brave- It's Vangalle. No, not so much as Vangalle, but like a scrappy, you know, upstart kind of guy. And, you know, Dick Ebersole is saying, they want you to fail. It's like, why would they give him a show that they wanted him to fail?

They should make more of these behind the scenes movies where like the network's like, we hope this works. Are you the guy who can give us money? I want the show about two guys, a girl and a pizza place. Yes. Being made. That would be fascinating. Where it's just the pizza place for a while and they're like, they filmed that.

They're like, we need two guys. We need people in this pizza place cause this is not interesting. So we all remember Ryan Reynolds, Mint Mobile. Sort of. But who was the girl again and who was the other guy? She had short hair, I don't remember her name. She had short blonde hair.

Let me look it up, Lauren. I'll look it up. And the other guy, what happened to the other guy? I don't remember her name. She had short blonde hair. Okay, let me look it up, Lauren. I'll look it up. Okay. And the other guy. What happened to the other guy? I don't know. Guy. Okay, these are the people who are the people in Two Guys, One Girl, and One Pizza Place.

Are you ready? Yeah. Richard Riccolo, Riccolo. Riccolo. He played Peter Dunville. Oh yeah, Peter Dunville. Yeah. And then we all know her trailer Howard. Trailer Howard. Yes. She was good. That name does ring a bell, but what are they up to?

Where are they now? What's trailer Howard up to? I want to feel old. Want to feel old. This is you now. Trailer Howard. We're fans. We want to know your life is half over. We want to know, we're fans. We wanna know. You wanna feel old? Your life is half over. We wanna know what you're, I'll tell you one thing she was in, Mr. Monk's Last Case, a monk movie. Mr. Monk's Last Case, a monk movie!

And she must have been on Monk. She simply must have. She was on Monk for eight, there we go. E7 episodes. Oh, she replaced Biddy Shram, I think. There we go. She played, of course, Natalie Teiger. Is she in the Monk webisodes?

You bet your silly ass she is. Are you mispronouncing tiger? I don't know, it's T-E-J. Well, it's like Chrissy Teigen. Yeah. That's right. That's a good point. That's a good point.

Hey, hats off to you, Trailer Howard. You were great in Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place, and you're even better in Monk. What about Ricky Rooks? Okay, let's see what his CV has him doing these days. In curriculum detail, if you please. Ricky Rooks, one of the last things he was in was a little thing called Internity.

Internity. Episode? Pilot. What year? That was 2016 was his last credit. Oh wow. Yes. Dang. So we don't quite know what's going, oh wait, no, he is,

no, he was once engaged to Tiffany Amber Thiessen. So he had some bit of happiness there, but now he is married to Lauren Reeves. I thought you were gonna say me. I was like, whoa. Now he's married to Lauren Lapkus. On the side. Second marriage.

Two families. Two family situation. Could you pull off a two family situation? It'd be harder for a woman. I'll say that. Why? Because everybody always wants mommy. That's so true. That's so true. I think it feels like it would be more trouble than it's worth unless you're like, that's what you're into.

I mean, I, I do know someone who did that. Um. No, I mean, he's no longer with us. I'm not gonna tell any more about it, but I will tell you with Mike. And it's a fascinating story. But I'm not gonna share it here. No, but it feels like it would be too difficult to bother with, right? Yeah, I mean, yeah, it feels impossible.

At some point, it has to come out. It's like eating crab. It's just too, it's too difficult to bother. Yeah, that's true. like at some point it has to come out. It's like eating crab. It's just too it's too difficult to bother Yeah, that's true. That's why nobody eats it You're like I didn't come here for a job. I want to eat some food You know what I mean though you don't you get crab and you're just like why am I? Get a hammer out. I don't like eating crab or lobster Um, I tried it a few years ago. My friend has a clam bake every year, which is a really

cute fun event. This has a real nice clam bake. We're really glad we came. The dinners we ate were good. You bet the company was the same. Our hearts are full, our bellies are full, and we are feeling fine. This was a real nice Clambake and we all had a real good time. That sounded great. What is that from? What? Carousel. Carousel. Yeah. The musical. Carousel. My friend has a clam bake. It's coming up actually.

A few years ago when I went. I gotta get an invite to this clam bake. I gotta get to this clam bake. I did try lobster for the first time I had ever had it. Really? And I had sort of an itchy mouth and I was like, I don't think I can eat that again. You might be allergic to it. I don't know if I am, but I was like, cause I eat other, like with sushi.

Here I have some lobster right here. Do you want to try it? Here you go. Here's some caviar too. My whole head is blowing up. No, I like, I can eat crab rolls and things like that. So I don't have any reaction to that. I don't know, but it was just a slight reaction

where I was sort of like, I'm not doing that again. Plus I didn't think it was that fun to eat. Were you on peyote though? I was. Okay. Great question. It's the only way I'll go to a clam bake. I think lobster-

If I'm having a spiritual experience. Yeah. Lobster's good in lobster rolls. Lobster's good and lobster's bad and lobster is everything. But lobster doesn't know what else I'm gonna buy, daddy. Lobster, lobster, I see you. Lobster, lobster, you're in the ICU.

Everybody- Everyone help this lobster. Everyone help this lobster. Snap, snap, snap, snap. Lobster lobster you're in the ICU Who knows how long a lobster lives? Who cares? Because now we eat, we eat, we get to eat, we eat. Alright, we have to take a break. I think there's a reason they call it a health journey, right?

Three-chir is a game that we like to play also known as a buster.

And this buster is Wikipedia based, Scott. It's called, Thank You for Attending My Ted Talk. And this was submitted by Adam, the first human being. One player loads up Wikipedia and goes to a random page. They have 60 seconds to read the article and then they have to give a TED talk on it where the other two people are encouraged to ask questions. Great. Okay. So should I start going to? I have wiki. Okay. I Wikipedia open. How do I randomize it? It's wiki roulette.co wiki roulette. Okay. I have Wikipedia open. How do I randomize it? It's wiki roulette dot co.

Wiki roulette dot co. I like that. That's fun. Lauren, do you want to go ahead? Oh, that's fun. Go ahead and do it. Sure. And we'll give you 60 seconds on the clock.

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Okay. And you can refresh it if you, if it's not an appropriate length. Great. And I'm putting 60 seconds on the clock and go. Hold on, I had to refresh this. That was one second. We like have a little conversation. And you and I have a little conversation. We try not to be too loud. All right, did you find an appropriate one? Sure. Okay. Hey, how's it going, Paul? Good, man. How are you doing? To be honest, I'm depressed. Why are you depressed?

Because I didn't feel the earthquake, I was just pretending. Scott, no, you don't have to do that. I just wanted to be cool. Well, it didn't work. It didn't work? No. But I wore sunglasses during it, no leather jacket.

That seems strange that you already put on sunglasses and leather jackets. Now, appropriate length means, this is too short, I think. I think I have to do it again. That's what she said? It's just about somebody who... It's not good, I gotta do it again. All right, all right, all right.

You've been saying that so much lately. It's gonna stick. It's come up too many times. Okay, I got it, I got it, I got it. No, this is also extremely short, it's one paragraph, sorry. They're not giving me a good one, I want like a juicy little thing. You want it. Oh no, this is also extremely short, it's one paragraph. Sorry. They're not giving me like a go on, I want like a juicy little thing. You want a juicy, well you have to read it in 60 seconds

and then never look at it again. I want a juicy little thing. Okay. Okay, and. Okay, got it. Go. Anyway. So.

What's going on, Paul? I'm depressed. No. Yeah. What's happening? I felt the earthquake'm depressed. No. Yeah. What's happening? I felt the earthquake too deeply. Oh, in your soul? No, in my bones.

A lot of them are dust now. Oh no. I wondered why you're so much. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh no. I feel like only my skull has structural integrity right now. Let me tap it. Don't, don't, don't, don't.

Well, there it goes. Oh no. Hope you're happy. You've just collapsed. You no. Hope you're happy. You've just collapsed. You're just a suit of skin. I'm just a suit of skin, which we all are in a way. In a way I understand that, but,

well, Paul, it's been nice knowing you. Can you finish this? God, I hope so. Okay. Yeah, it's my last act on Earth, sure. You still have 15 seconds left, Lauren. You're good? No, I'm about 15 seconds. That's me on my deathbed. No, I want 15 seconds. 15 second place, Lauren. You're good? No, I want 15 seconds.

That's me on my deathbed. No, I want 15 seconds. 15 second place. Please. Marry. You clearly are an old maid. If you haven't married time, you might be an old maid. I already forgot everything. All right, go.

This Ted Talk is about the band Javelin. Javelin? Yes, Javelin is a band started by two cousins named George and Tom, and they each play different instruments. What are their last names? Tom Van Buskirk and George Something. Something, what a beautiful name. George plays three instruments or four,

and Tom plays two. Tom plays the cello and piano, and George plays the mandolin, the bass, the drums, and maybe another kind of guitar. At the same time? They were named as Rising in 2009's Pitchfork. Wow. Artical. Okay, what's happened in the last 15 years?

They, well they have like 12 albums or releases that they've done, I don't know if they're full albums, some might be singles. Are we allowed to ask questions? Yes. How is this a game? How is this a game? Tell us what they're up to.

Is it supposed to be, am I supposed to be game? Tell us what they're up to now. I'm just realizing. We're supposed to ask questions. Right, but we don't know the answers. I know, but... So what's the point? We're supposed to ask questions and if she doesn't know the answers, she has to answer

by making something up. They... No points are scored. Lord of the Rings question. Oh, is that so important to you? Next question! What's the angle? Next question! What did they do yesterday? No points are scored What did they do yesterday they both are continuing to work together they love being cousins they often do things that like family

Wow, yes, have you ever met them my cousins? Or javelin I've never met Javelin. They're based in Brooklyn. They're from Providence, Rhode Island Oh, wow, they got their start kind of goofing around They did a thing with that you might think is really fun where they painted boomboxes different colors a sort of an amp Yeah, how many hyperlinks were in the article um Maybe maybe two Wow, that's not many. Yeah. Are they married? Maybe more.

Are they married? They don't include the information in my research, however, I believe they don't. You're doing a TED Talk on these people, you should know. They both are. How long do you get to talk about them? I get to talk about them as long as I both shall live.

That sounds fair. Yeah, it's really cool. All right, that was good. Thanks. That sounds fair. Yeah, it's really cool. All right, that was good. Thanks. That was good. That was good. Thanks. I feel like there's something missing from this.

Yeah. This one's too short. I should have said they are obsessed with old school hip hop of an 80s vintage. Yeah. Okay. I was wondering why you left that out. All right, give me 60 seconds. Okay.

I'll count you down. Let me get the old timer. The old timer, old timer. Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. Here we are. Lauren. Yeah. Don't you recall there was something else to this?

We're not just listening to the person. What if we pull up the page and then we are able to ask questions based on the page? Yeah, that's what I think that might be. What if this was just it? Why are you listening to this? You should be fucking. You should be fucking. You should be fucking.

You should be fucking. You should be fucking. How many Stanley mugs do you have now? I only have one. You're down to one. I've never had more than one. I have other types of cups like this. However, I don't have any Stanleys.

And I call this my Marcus because I don't like calling it a Stanley. Who's Marcus? My friend. But I just thought the name was better than Stanley. I don't like saying, can you get my Stanley or my Stanley cup, which always sounds like I'm talking about hockey. Do you like saying Stanley knife instead of box cutter? Is that what it's called?

I think so. I don't like that. I would say box cutter. Okay, okay. Do you like saying Stanley? Okay. I'll never know. And I'll never know.

Cliffhanger. And I'll never know. Hi. Shut the fuck up. We're so excited for the talk. Yeah, shut up. And I'll start. Ooh, bad start.

Bad start or good start? He's so aggressive. Oh shit, he's got me thinking. I'm here to talk about Jason and DeMarco. Who? Jason and DeMarco. Two people? Who are they?

Who are they? They're obviously a Christian music duo. Okay. With outreach to the gay community. Nice. Wow. That's right. They were just two fellows who were doing their own thing. And one of them was into Christian music and kind of performing in traditional gospel groups.

And then DeMarco got together with this guy and what they made was magic. Why? Why, because no one had ever made songs like this before where these were songs uplifting Jesus while still saying, hey, we also enjoy gay sex. And- Well, they were gay.

I don't, I mean, to be honest, I don't wanna say. You do that. Because I looked for that info and could not find it. How many boom boxes did they spray paint? One or? They did one and a half. They got tired in the middle of the second one and they took a three hour nap.

And what year were they operating? That's right. They were operating. They started of course in that wonderful post Y2K era of January 2000. And they became friends first and then they became musical partners. One of them currently, by the way, is working at a church. Okay. And this is in Texas.

In Texas, thank you. Yeah, as a matter of fact. And they put out a Christmas album that was so wonderful. And they also put out a- That's a fact? They also put out a second Christmas album that was so also wonderful. Wow. And their music just really tends to speak to a certain part of the community that feels underserved.

I hope this isn't too blunt a question, but who cares? Why are we here? I mean on earth. That's not my Ted talk. Why didn't you put a sign out front that said what this was about so we could have known whether or not we wanted to walk in here? OK, I think I've heard enough from you. Can I hang out with you now? No.

Oh, come on. Come on. Oh, sure. I just fell on my face during my TED talk. It was bad. it was really bad. I thought that was on purpose. It'd be really nice if I could just hang out with you guys. It was really, really bad. It was really, really bad.

By the way, okay, so speaking of Ted Talks, Cool Up forwarded me one that was like, was subtitled as the best Ted Talk ever. Whoa. And it was like a nine-year-old girl saying, talk ever. Well, and it was like a nine year old girl saying, what if I told you that playing peekaboo could change the world? That was nine years ago. I think I've seen that.

This was her opening, right? What if I told you that sounds interesting, right? And then she went on for like 15 minutes about like, oh yeah, kids find connections with adults who pay attention to them. No fucking shit. I don't want a kid to do a Ted talk. Okay, I want you to play toys and Yes, play toys. Play toys and draw on paper. Yes Okay, all right. It is Paul's turn. Do you have the wiki randomizer pulled up? Yes and weirdly enough it's not about a musical duo. That was weird. Tell me when. And go. So hi. Hi. Do you ever swing on that swing set? Occasionally Emi will want me to swing on it next to her and I'll sort of get on there and try to swing a little bit if you know what I mean and kind of going like back forth back forth. Okay what train were you guys riding the other day? I

saw an Instagram post. What train were we riding? This must have been weeks ago. I think it might have been yester. Oh yester. Oh yeah the Griffith Park train. It must have been weeks ago. I thought you met us. Oh yeah, the Griffith Park train. I thought you meant us. Yeah, the Griffith, do you know the Griffith Park has three distinct trains? Well, I've been on one. Well, no, I mean the Travel Town, and I've been on the other one

that I thought was Travel Town the first time I went there, but it wasn't. Yeah, so have you been on the one that you straddle and ride on top of? No. Neither have I. Should I try that? It sounds unpleasant.

I think you should. Okay. If you know what's good for you. I know that sounds fun, but maybe it does sound fun. I have kidnapped your husband. Okay, and he's strapped to one of those trains. He's strapped to one of the trains, so you better go rescue him.

Okay, it feels like it's been a minute. Oh yeah, sorry. Yeah. You got 10 extra seconds. You got ten extra. Wow, fucking crush it Hello, hi, I'm so I'm so honored to see two people here Yeah, we're the only two people. Is this not a popular TED talk? Well, I'll find out after today. This is my first time doing it Oh great. I'd love to hear your topic. Well, my topic of course is You can't look down at that phone.

The 1949 Victorian football season. You should flip your phone over. So we're talking about Australian rules football gang. Wow. 1949. After this season, nothing's ever going to be the same because this was the last season before they joined a bigger organization called the Australian football for reals. Wow.

And it was the last season that the throw pass was legal. It was the last season before rock and roll started, right? Yes, that's right. Rock and roll started January 1st, 1950. That was the first time an electric guitar was strung. That's right. 1201 AM, January 1st, 1950. That was the first time an electric guitar was strung. That's right. 1201 AM, January 1st, 1950. And in Australia at this point, the rules of football were Australian rules. Sure.

And what changed... What does that mean though? What is Australian rules? No one knows for sure, but what you do know is that it's only, it only happens in Australia. Okay. They're the only country that does Australian rules football. So no one playing knows the rules. No, they do. They do. But they're, they're sworn to secret.

Oh, okay. It's like a skull and bones thing. Yes. They all have skulls and bones. Anyone who has a skull and bones, is allowed to play the secret and is allowed to play. Oh, yes. And I might automatically get at it if I have a skull and bones. Anyone who has a skull and bones is allowed to play. And is allowed to play. Oh, yes. And I might automatically get at it if I have a skull and bones. No, you have to earn it. And the way you earn it is with an essay contest. Oh, OK. I can do that. And it's remember him. John Housman. He was born on January 1st, 1950.

He's as old as rock and roll. Wow. Yeah. The most rock and roll actor. He's the most rock and roll roll. Wow. Yeah. The most rock and roll actor ever. He's the most rock and roll actor. Yeah. That's amazing. In 1951, Australian rules football continued. I hope so. Yes.

It kept going. But the throw pass was no longer legal. It was? Why? It stopped being legal in 1949. Why? That was the last season. Why?

Because the rules changed when they joined this larger organization. So the larger organization didn't allow a throw pass? They said, you can become part of this, but we will have to eliminate the throw pass. Everyone agreed it was worth it. They just handed off? Because they just handed off and to this day it remains very popular in Australia. And one of the former players

became the president of the league. He died. And then other players also served as presidents of the league, but didn't die. Oh, I hope not as president. I hope no one else died. No one else who has ever played it has died. Only the one guy. And he was a doctor. And isn't that ironic? Oh, don't you think? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So eventually Australian rules football became the hallmark of football played in Australia. Amazing. I learned so much from you. I could not retain a single thing.

It's really hard to retain. It really is. But you guys did a much better job than me. I don't know that I... I mean... Here's... Okay, here's okay Here's I'm gonna read you the first paragraph and I could not

Remember any of this. Okay, the 1949 Victorian Football Association season was the 68th season of the Australian Rules football competition The Premiership was won by the Williamstown Football Club, which defeated Oakley by three points in the grand final on 1 October It was the fifth Premiership won by the club That absolutely refused to stay in my head, any of it. Oh wow. Well, I mean, like, I feel like I could read. You know what? I never got down to the pertinent information at the very bottom of my own,

which is the couple married in Los Angeles in 2008 prior to the passage of Proposition 8. But you guys remembered names and some details and I could not remember anything that I was reading. I couldn't remember Warner or Dick Cheeky-O which are their last name. Dick Cheeky-O. Dick Cheeky-O. That's cute. My name is Dick Cheeky-O. I also couldn't remember Demarco was a lead in the international touring company of the musical California dream men.

That would have been fun to say. Well, this was fun. It was fun. I still think there's some aspect of the game we were losing because who cares about the person, unless we're checking it against. I will tell you, it's not in the description. Wow. We did exactly as the description says. And you know what? I had fun checking it. I will tell you, it's not in the description. Wow. It we did exactly as the description says.

And you know what? I had fun doing it. I had fun too. And it was good for my brain. I can't lie. I had fun. Okay. And I had fun doing...
