Speaker 1: Gather around fable babies and welcome back to hashtag story Time,
Speaker 1: the podcast filled with everyday stories from everyday people, brought
Speaker 1: to you by iHeart Radio and Curativity. I'm your host,
Speaker 1: Will Snoop, Poopen mc fadden, Dogs, guys, puppies, pooches, puppers, fluffers. Wait,
Speaker 1: hold on a second, fl flu furs. Fluffers are whole
Speaker 1: different thing, human's best friend. We don't deserve them, do we.
Speaker 1: You know what I've always wondered, what if our furry
Speaker 1: little friends could speak? Oh? What tales they would tell?
Speaker 1: Pun intended. I don't know if you know this about me,
Speaker 1: but I have a dog. His name is weird Gary.
Speaker 1: You can follow him on Instagram at Weird Gary. And Uh,
Speaker 1: I've been working on something. I've been training him. I
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've seen the wildly popular TikTok
Speaker 1: account of Bunny the Talking Dog, but I have set
Speaker 1: up my own elaborate system of vocabulary buttons, and I've
Speaker 1: been working with Gary for months, training him, trying to
Speaker 1: get his vocabulary advanced enough. Or maybe he could tell
Speaker 1: us a little story. So let's see if it works. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's see Gary. Come here, Come here, buddy, come on,
Speaker 1: come here. Oh hey, buddy, Hey, do you want to
Speaker 1: say something? Do you want to tell a little story
Speaker 1: to the fable babies? Oh? Good job. That's his favorite button, obviously.
Speaker 1: But here you go. Here's a little treat. All right,
Speaker 1: what else you got treat? Okay, here's another treat. But Gary,
Speaker 1: can you tell us a story? Okay? Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe this isn't working. I lost the love of
Speaker 1: my life. Oh my god, it's working. He's doing it.
Speaker 1: She was a corgy named Penelope. She had a thick
Speaker 1: golden coat that I could lose myself in and an
Speaker 1: ass that looked like a fresh loaf of bread. Gary,
Speaker 1: you dog. We planned to run away together. It was
Speaker 1: our dream to live in a little palapa on the
Speaker 1: shores of the Sea of Cortez. When she told me
Speaker 1: that she was pregnant, my heart exploded with joy. The
Speaker 1: plan was to escape our yards and rendezvous at the
Speaker 1: Italian restaurant where we first met, Bucca da Bepo. Don't
Speaker 1: remember recording that button. Don't interrupt me. Pelope never made it.
Speaker 1: I searched up and down Long Beach, howling her name.
Speaker 1: I was so distraught I hadn't noticed. I had wandered
Speaker 1: onto the freeway when all of a sudden, a van
Speaker 1: pulled up filled with quote unquote do gooders. They quote
Speaker 1: unquote rescued me and brought me here. Oh my god, Gary,
Speaker 1: I am so sorry. I had I had no idea
Speaker 1: quiet Harry lipped fool. I don't need your pity Penelope.
Speaker 1: If you are listening, if you've managed to figure out podcasts,
Speaker 1: I miss you. Tell my puppies. I love them, Gary,
Speaker 1: I just I don't know what to say. Is there
Speaker 1: is there anything else you want to add? That a boy,
Speaker 1: Now we're talking, you know, believe it or not. All
Speaker 1: of this is one big setup for today's guest, Jim
Speaker 1: Jacobsen from the Dog podcast Network. And Jim joined me
Speaker 1: and told me a story that had to do with Maui,
Speaker 1: the supernatural and a case of sudden blindness. I am
Speaker 1: I'm a massive dog lover, and for the past twenty
Speaker 1: years or so, my life has gone to the dogs
Speaker 1: and one of those entrepreneurs who had a lot of
Speaker 1: early success and built and salt some companies and did
Speaker 1: all sorts of stuff. But basically, for about twenty years now,
Speaker 1: I have been focused on dog lovers and people who
Speaker 1: consider dogs, you know, they're best friends and are willing
Speaker 1: to do things for their dogs that they would never
Speaker 1: do for themselves. And over the years people have wanted
Speaker 1: to ask, you know, where did this passion and start?
Speaker 1: And it really started when I was like a year
Speaker 1: or two old and I wanted a dog. And I
Speaker 1: wanted a dog, and I was promised that when I
Speaker 1: turned ten, I would get a dog. Well you can
Speaker 1: imagine when you tell a kid that that that's basically
Speaker 1: all they have in their minds. So I envisioned. I was,
Speaker 1: you know, I want this little white dog and I
Speaker 1: can see it, and it'll be this big, and you know,
Speaker 1: and and it'll sleep with me and it'll have a
Speaker 1: place in the bed. What was the breed that you
Speaker 1: were dreaming of? I was dreaming of a Maltese, Okay,
Speaker 1: of a white fluffy dog. I don't think I knew
Speaker 1: that it was a Maltese, but this is what I
Speaker 1: saw in my in my mind's eye as a kid,
Speaker 1: and that thing drove me to be the best little
Speaker 1: boy you know you gotta be. If you don't do this,
Speaker 1: you may not get that dog on your tenth birthday.
Speaker 1: So you can imagine, well how excited and passionate I
Speaker 1: was to come down on my tenth birthday to breakfast
Speaker 1: and there was this big box on in front of
Speaker 1: the place, setting at the table. I was like, I
Speaker 1: did think it was a little odd because I thought
Speaker 1: my parents are not great animal lovers. But it is
Speaker 1: a little weird to put a dog in a box.
Speaker 1: But right, okay, I know, I know, I know, I know.
Speaker 1: I opened it up and it was a tape recorder.
Speaker 1: No dog. I got a tape recorder for my tenth birthday,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure that set me up for a life
Speaker 1: of psychological lots of therapy. Well did you did you
Speaker 1: immediately turn the tape recorder on and record to your
Speaker 1: your sobs? Or I did not sobby because I was
Speaker 1: an only child and it wasn't appropriate because I was
Speaker 1: raised in a pretty strict family. So I did go
Speaker 1: around like making tapes, which I still have to this day.
Speaker 1: I was like, or, or, I love this recorder just
Speaker 1: because I was. I couldn't communicate that the depth of
Speaker 1: my sadness and my soul for not cotton the thing. Well,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe that laid the groundwork for your later for
Speaker 1: your podcasting. I mean, this is where like I think
Speaker 1: Sigmund Freud or whoever the equivalent is today would say,
Speaker 1: is I see, that's the reason that you want to
Speaker 1: exist today. So a little dr ruth in there, that's
Speaker 1: a little It's true. Um, so many years have elapsed
Speaker 1: since my tenth birthday, many many, many many years, and
Speaker 1: as I said, for the last twenty of those years,
Speaker 1: I have been focused on dogs. The first heart dog
Speaker 1: that I ever got was well, I'm sure this will
Speaker 1: be surprising, a Maltese. Al Right, you got the Maltese.
Speaker 1: I finally got the Maltese. I've gotten the Maltese before.
Speaker 1: I was living with this girl and she one of
Speaker 1: the Maltese. We ended up getting a Maltese. We broke up.
Speaker 1: It was a horrible year. We broke up. My best
Speaker 1: friend committed suicide. She took the dog. It was. It
Speaker 1: was one of those horrible things. But on Valentine's Day,
Speaker 1: I got on Maltese and I named it Maui, which
Speaker 1: is sort of which is my favorite place on earth.
Speaker 1: And that was at a time when I was living
Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. And just thought about it'd be
Speaker 1: so cold to live in Maui. Um, and how how
Speaker 1: old are you now at this point? When I okay,
Speaker 1: so it's been you know, at this point fifteen years
Speaker 1: of pining over this more yeah, more like mid like fifteen,
Speaker 1: like damn, it was probably you know, it's been a while.
Speaker 1: It's been a while, but I finally got the small
Speaker 1: t s and I loved it and I had you know,
Speaker 1: I was an early dot comer and Mauie would go
Speaker 1: to the office with me and uh, and we kind
Speaker 1: of engaged in this strange activity because I have been
Speaker 1: a lifelong meditator, which is a whole another story, but
Speaker 1: basically I taught myself how to meditate when I was
Speaker 1: also an equally small child and um, and not with
Speaker 1: any sort of dogmatic approach, just like I would, I
Speaker 1: would meditate it, go into silence and just sit. Being
Speaker 1: an only child, you do that. And uh, Mauie had
Speaker 1: this wonderful habit of jumping up on my lap when
Speaker 1: I did, and she really liked to meditate with me,
Speaker 1: which is kind of cool. And so she got me
Speaker 1: through a lot of really rough times in business and
Speaker 1: then well, fast forward through this story, but basically I
Speaker 1: ended up commuting for many years between Washington d C
Speaker 1: and Maui, Hawaii, um seventy two trips over thirteen years.
Speaker 1: But I finally and one of the reasons that I
Speaker 1: couldn't move to Mauie earlier full time was because Hawaii
Speaker 1: had this quarantine law that said you you have to
Speaker 1: put your dog in quarantine. At one point it was
Speaker 1: ninety days, and sixty days and then thirty days. And
Speaker 1: at that point I was living in Colorado. I had
Speaker 1: sold my company to a company in Colorado, and I
Speaker 1: had to be there for a year and a half.
Speaker 1: It was very cold and snowy, and I looked down
Speaker 1: at my dog one day and I said, the snow
Speaker 1: was drifted to the literally to the top of the
Speaker 1: of the sliding door. We are getting out of this place.
Speaker 1: We're gonna go to someplace where we're going to finally
Speaker 1: go to your namesake. So I helped to orchestrate a
Speaker 1: political campaign in Hawaii to enable the governor to effectively
Speaker 1: changed the law that had been on the books longer
Speaker 1: than Hawaii had been a state, and in two thousand three,
Speaker 1: Maui and I moved to Maui. Wow. I wonder what
Speaker 1: was going through Maui's mind at this point. I think
Speaker 1: she really dug it um. And this is kind of
Speaker 1: where are scary story begins. So seven days after arriving
Speaker 1: here on Maui, after working really hard to get here,
Speaker 1: she goes blind, like instantly, blind like it wasn't a
Speaker 1: it wasn't a waning thing, but just like one day
Speaker 1: she just couldn't see. Oh no, And I was very odd.
Speaker 1: And then I went I had met like a day
Speaker 1: or two earlier in the beach, this guy who was
Speaker 1: a veterinarian. So he was therefore in my bed because
Speaker 1: I didn't know anyone here. Uh and uh so we
Speaker 1: went to the vat and he said, no, your dog
Speaker 1: is blind, and it's happened sometimes it's gonna be this thing.
Speaker 1: I think they're like, just go home, and so I would.
Speaker 1: I went home, and uh, you know, started to google
Speaker 1: all the things that you can do for blind dogs.
Speaker 1: You put perfume on furniture to help them. Mariana way
Speaker 1: around the house. But of course this was a brand
Speaker 1: new house that my furniture had not yet arrived. There
Speaker 1: was a big empty house and I have a blind dog,
Speaker 1: and I did the only thing that I knew how
Speaker 1: to do. When times are tough, you meditate. So now
Speaker 1: he came and sat on my lap and we meditated,
Speaker 1: and they just like, okay, there's a purpose to all
Speaker 1: of this. And then the doorbell rang and it was
Speaker 1: some kids, and Maui shot up out of my lap
Speaker 1: ran through the hall all the way upstairs to the
Speaker 1: door without like not the way a blind dog would
Speaker 1: do it. Clearly her sight had come back, which was
Speaker 1: a really freaky thing. And so I went I called
Speaker 1: the vat and I said, um, MAUI can see. And
Speaker 1: he's like, now he knows. I'm just a whack a
Speaker 1: doodle person, right, like people moved to Hawaii who are
Speaker 1: touched sometimes and as this guy I met on the
Speaker 1: beach and yeah, okay, your dog right just examinedly. This
Speaker 1: guy went to like Cornell vs. One of the top
Speaker 1: bet squalls in the country, and he was like, m
Speaker 1: I don't think so, so bring her in. I'm like,
Speaker 1: and I just paid him a bunch of money to
Speaker 1: tell me my dog was blind. And I was like,
Speaker 1: and he could tell my hesitancy, and he also thought
Speaker 1: I was weird and he just wanted to figure out
Speaker 1: what was going on. I said, I won't charge you,
Speaker 1: just come in. Let me see. So I brought her
Speaker 1: in and he was like, huh, yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 1: this is weird. I gotta look this one up. So
Speaker 1: he did. Later on, we find out she has this
Speaker 1: kind of rare thing that may have been a result
Speaker 1: of all the rabies vaccine that she had to get
Speaker 1: to get here. So anyway, so she had this waning
Speaker 1: waxing and waning eyes side that I lived with. As
Speaker 1: I said, it was seven days after she had arrived here,
Speaker 1: because there was a monumental day when I arrived here
Speaker 1: in July two thousand three, and I was like, I
Speaker 1: knew that was significant. And then I started thinking about
Speaker 1: the significance of seven, and throughout Maui's life, seven seemed
Speaker 1: so important. She would do take out, as I called it,
Speaker 1: where she would go to her fruit bowl, and as
Speaker 1: Maltese do, they would put a bunch of kibble in
Speaker 1: their mouth and then kind of walk a few steps
Speaker 1: away and drop it on the floor. And it was
Speaker 1: always seven kibbles. That's exactly how I eat. But you know,
Speaker 1: it's a common thing and you should do it with
Speaker 1: Captain crunch or any type of thing like that. You
Speaker 1: just reach in and put it on the floor. But
Speaker 1: she would never eat out of the bowl. She would
Speaker 1: like reach in and always pick seven, which is kind
Speaker 1: of tough. I mean, could you put seven coronalism? So
Speaker 1: she she she she did that, and I was it
Speaker 1: was always a weird thing. And when she would poop,
Speaker 1: she would spin around exactly seven times. She also do
Speaker 1: that the same. It's a common thing. I totally yeah,
Speaker 1: you should talk to your mom about that. But um,
Speaker 1: we had all these toys for for for Maui, and
Speaker 1: there were of course seven toys that she played with
Speaker 1: the others, a dozen nurse others never got touched. Only seven. Um.
Speaker 1: She would wake me up every morning at seven am.
Speaker 1: She likes seven. This was this was this was a
Speaker 1: seven dog her number. Fast forward. I was here in Hawaii.
Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't know what to do. I
Speaker 1: ended up writing a book called How to Meditate with
Speaker 1: Your Dog, And we did you know? I was on
Speaker 1: CNN and Jay Leno and flew on Oprah's jet and
Speaker 1: did all sorts of things to promote that book. We
Speaker 1: did an early viral video. It sort of cemented my
Speaker 1: whole I love dogs. I am going to make my
Speaker 1: career about dogs. And it led to other things, including
Speaker 1: what I do today with Dog Podcast Network. But she
Speaker 1: always was like this. The seven kept coming in and
Speaker 1: coming in and coming in. Well. As she got older,
Speaker 1: she her her vision did dissipate again and she went
Speaker 1: totally blind. And at that point I had built sort
Speaker 1: of a following among dog lovers because of the book.
Speaker 1: And and we did one of the first viral videos
Speaker 1: on dogs ever before you existed. We had we're gonna
Speaker 1: have to find that video and it was it was
Speaker 1: It was really a sweet thing to promote the book.
Speaker 1: And um I had this big audience and I would
Speaker 1: tell them through newsletters and through some videos that I did,
Speaker 1: um that you know, Marie was dying and this was
Speaker 1: the grieving process and and this is what but she
Speaker 1: and so when she finally passed, it was tough, but
Speaker 1: her passing was unique. I took her to that very
Speaker 1: same veterinarian and um I did not want to let
Speaker 1: her go. She didn't want to go. And they without
Speaker 1: beginning too morbid, they do the you know, their their
Speaker 1: euthan asia, which is something that you know a lot
Speaker 1: about these days. For dogs is tough. And you give
Speaker 1: a sedative and then you give another drug and then
Speaker 1: you know, the first sedative puts them to sleep, and
Speaker 1: then the second drug does what it's supposed to do,
Speaker 1: and it's designed to be incredibly peaceful and everything. And
Speaker 1: so the first drug is administered, and then the second drug,
Speaker 1: and then after the second drugs ministered, this this little
Speaker 1: bark seven times seven barks that just still haunts me.
Speaker 1: I get, as we say here in a white chicken
Speaker 1: skin when I tell the story, because it was just
Speaker 1: like roof, but it was seven times. So that was
Speaker 1: her saying goodbye, um and and she was definitely that
Speaker 1: heart dog. I think that we all have that all
Speaker 1: dog lovers have that one dog that means so much.
Speaker 1: And this dog had been with me through so much,
Speaker 1: and that, you know, lucky number seven was something that
Speaker 1: just basically continued throughout and even after her life. Oh, Mally,
Speaker 1: I I my my dog is not allowed to die.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that's a really good policy.
Speaker 1: I think I tend to think that it's good for
Speaker 1: both us and our paths. Yeah, it's not allowed. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I used to rule that I don't fly in planes
Speaker 1: that crashed, and I don't swim with sharks. And I
Speaker 1: think we will add that I'm not allowed to die
Speaker 1: and my dog's not allowed to die. I like that.
Speaker 1: What kind of dog do you have? So I have?
Speaker 1: He's just a little Schnarier. He's a kind of a
Speaker 1: you know, Schnauzer terrier where were wolf mixed. But his
Speaker 1: name is Weird Gary, and um, Weird Gary was foster
Speaker 1: and a foster failed, so we we foster with a
Speaker 1: shelter out here in l A. And yeah, I just
Speaker 1: fell in love with this, with this first foster, and
Speaker 1: and kept kept him. But he actually developed early um
Speaker 1: like cataracts in one eye, and I was going blind
Speaker 1: in that eye. And luckily, Weird Gary's got a little
Speaker 1: bit of a following on social media, and we you know,
Speaker 1: I did a go fund meat and all of the
Speaker 1: fans on Instagram and on on TikTok showed up big
Speaker 1: and paid for are Weird Gary's eye surgery and saved
Speaker 1: saved his right eye. That is extraordinary. How how much
Speaker 1: did you raise? It was a six thousand dollar surgery
Speaker 1: and he he was you know, we weren't sure of
Speaker 1: his age since he's a foster, but probably they were
Speaker 1: saying around seven years old. So still has so much
Speaker 1: life left you know, we we didn't want to just say, oh,
Speaker 1: he'll just be blind in one eye for the next
Speaker 1: however many years, so we thought it was worth it to,
Speaker 1: you know, to try and raise the money and get
Speaker 1: that surgery done. But yeah, weird. Gary's got great eyesight
Speaker 1: now that is can and can he? And can he drive?
Speaker 1: Not at night just during the down to night. Well
Speaker 1: that's that's a good restriction. I understand the California Highway.
Speaker 1: He's got a he's got a weed prescription now too,
Speaker 1: which is great. Well, that's good because that does help
Speaker 1: with the cataracts. So awesome, dude, it's for my dog.
Speaker 1: So I think that's that's amazing. I love that. We
Speaker 1: we should have you and dog podcast Network to tell
Speaker 1: that story about Gary. I would love that. I would
Speaker 1: absolutely we love that. Um yeah, I'm also you know,
Speaker 1: as you were saying, I'm a dog. I don't have
Speaker 1: any children. I have a dog. So I'm one of
Speaker 1: those millennials who spends way too much money. I'm a
Speaker 1: gen actor and that's the same thing my wife and
Speaker 1: I have. But we okay, so here the questions so
Speaker 1: we we we focus on dog lovers versus dog owners.
Speaker 1: So here are the questions, where does Gary sleep in
Speaker 1: our bed? Check one, Uh, you're sick, your dog is sick?
Speaker 1: Who is more likely to go to the doctor slash
Speaker 1: veterinarian dog? Okay? Check two? Uh you what do you
Speaker 1: feed your dog? Oh? Uh? He has this like these
Speaker 1: fresh little meatballs you know that you make? Well, No,
Speaker 1: I don't make them by hand, but I get them
Speaker 1: at Petco. But they're they're like the fresh bag. Check three.
Speaker 1: And uh, come Christmas, Birthday, holidays, whatever Gary gets presents.
Speaker 1: There's the amount of costumes that it's usually a costume.
Speaker 1: But yeah, and then some treats and stuff, but yeah,
Speaker 1: almost always a costume has purchased every holiday. Congratulations, you
Speaker 1: have scored a hundred on are you a dog lover
Speaker 1: versus a dog owner? Yes, that's it. That's those are
Speaker 1: that's our litmus test. I'm glad I passed. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: it's and it's great and people think of us as strange,
Speaker 1: but this is our dog, right, this is our child. Right,
Speaker 1: says talks with people with Welcome Back Fable Babies. It's
Speaker 1: time for everybody's favorite segment, robo Reddit read. So let's
Speaker 1: welcome back my robot intern kyleies, Nope, it's fable babies fable,
Speaker 1: not table fable as in a story. Why would we
Speaker 1: call our fans table babies? What? What did you just say?
Speaker 1: Beats meat? Gross? You freaking yar know it's beats me
Speaker 1: as you wish? Oh look, oh stop? What the far?
Speaker 1: What the why did you just hit me? You told
Speaker 1: me to beat you god hurd, you little robot bitch.
Speaker 1: Just read the damn reddit threat already as you wish.
Speaker 1: Today's ask Creddit thread is. When I was a kid,
Speaker 1: my parents told me my dad was sent to quote
Speaker 1: the farm. After months of thinking she had been put down,
Speaker 1: I visited the farm and it turns out my uncle
Speaker 1: was taking care of her. Have you ever been showing
Speaker 1: your parents were lying to you when they were actually
Speaker 1: being honest. That's how I got my dog. My friend
Speaker 1: in high school was going to put him down when
Speaker 1: he was only a couple of months old because he
Speaker 1: wasn't pure bred. His mother was one black lab don't
Speaker 1: know who the father was. I told him I'd take him,
Speaker 1: and he's been living on our farm ever since, literally
Speaker 1: eating steaks and chasing four wheelers every day. He even
Speaker 1: outlasted me on the farm. But every time I go home,
Speaker 1: he's super happy to see me. I'll always love Jake,
Speaker 1: my dog, not some dude name of Jake. Jesus, what
Speaker 1: kind of a monster puts down a dog because it's
Speaker 1: not pure bread. You know, you should be more selective
Speaker 1: with who you call friends. You know, cut this puppy
Speaker 1: hitler out of your life. When I was about ten,
Speaker 1: my nan lived in a block of units, and when
Speaker 1: she moved out, she told me that it was because
Speaker 1: the neighbors were always playing ping pong. I thought ping
Speaker 1: pong was slang for having sex. Turns out the neighbors
Speaker 1: were actually playing ping pong. To be fair, When I
Speaker 1: play ping pong, it does sound a lot like sex.
Speaker 1: It's lots of heavy breathing, cussing, and smacking balls. My
Speaker 1: younger sister is my half sister. I thought my parents
Speaker 1: were pulling the your sister is adopted joke. Nope, my
Speaker 1: mother boined the neighbor and we suddenly had a new
Speaker 1: addition to the family. I didn't find out it was
Speaker 1: actually true until I was forty and her biological father died.
Speaker 1: My parents were explaining why our neighbor left money to
Speaker 1: my sister in his will, my parents are still married.
Speaker 1: My family is weird. You know. I've never seen an
Speaker 1: episode of Desperate Housewives, but this is exactly what I
Speaker 1: imagine it to be. Not my parents, but still pretty funny.
Speaker 1: I was at a frat partying and dancing with some guys.
Speaker 1: There was this one guy I was dancing with who
Speaker 1: was pretty bad. You could tell it wasn't his kind
Speaker 1: of thing. I like to dance with these types because
Speaker 1: I don't find frat's particularly fun either, so it feels
Speaker 1: like solidarity between songs. He asked me if I wanted
Speaker 1: to go upstairs to see the puppy, thinking this was
Speaker 1: just a way to get me upstairs for the sex
Speaker 1: and such. I laughed and said nope. When leaving the party,
Speaker 1: I went up one too many flights of stairs, got
Speaker 1: a little lust, and lo and behold there was a
Speaker 1: room with a bunch of people playing with a lab puppy.
Speaker 1: I feel bad for thinking poorly of that poor awkward dancer. Man,
Speaker 1: Do not feel bad. You did the right thing. Puppy
Speaker 1: in the bedroom is the oldest frat trap in the book.
Speaker 1: Fuck being polite, stay sex, don't get murdered. Hey, Kyle,
Speaker 1: those are really great, man, thanks a lot. If you
Speaker 1: need more entertaining reddy threats, just hit me down. Hit
Speaker 1: me down, you mean hit me up as you wish.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what the funk, Kyle, You just upper
Speaker 1: cutting me in the nuts? This is too easy. Thanks
