I think I've told 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:05.240 this before, but he would his suitcase. He'd just pack 0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.920 a suitcase filled with water bottles because he was you 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:11.639 know what, you don't drink the water in Mexico.

They were measured out, 0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:33.480 but the formula wasn't mixed in them yet. But you 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:36.200 can have a full bag of liquids. But Ben, they 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:39.200 do this thing where they take these these little sticks 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:42.120 and they they measure the steam coming out of the 0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.080 bottle and then they swab and they check the water 0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:47.640 to make sure it's really water. We stood there for 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:50.760 about twenty minutes. Well they made sure that baby col 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:51.760 wasn't a terrorist. 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:56.799 Well, baby cod does have some tendencies. 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:59.320 I mean he lets those farts rip, so you know 0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:01.320 that's a he's a fart terrorist. 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.400 I know that, right, Yeah, you're not kidding about that. 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.840 Yeah.

I'm known in the building as mister Fashion. 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:43.480 So we're gonna start. 0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:45.920 On clearly, if Costco had a fashion show. 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:52.200 We're gonna start on the catwalk. Yeah, on the catwalks. 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:56.880 I was strutting down the catwalk runway doing a little pirouette. 0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:00.320 Now you were traveling, so you probably didn't didn't see this, 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:02.800 But I debuted my newest hat. I'd mentioned I was 0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:05.200 going to get this hat, but I finally debuted it 0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.960 on the pod, which you can see on the YouTube feed. 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:13.600 There is a YouTube feed of Malor monologues on obviously 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:14.040 on the internet. 0:04:14.120 --> 0:04:15.000 You can check that out. 0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:20.280 But I made quite the fashion statement this week as 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:29.840 I debuted my tribute to Canada. Oh come, the Houten 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:34.599 hat has arrived. The poutine hat has arrived on the scene. 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:37.680 And if for those her blind listeners though, this is 0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:42.760 a bright yellow cap and then it's got the Hutine 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:47.960 logo in and I'll say this thing so you can see, 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:50.320 because I'm sure you we're busy this week. Let me 0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:53.240 see if I can find as I'll hit this button 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.760 here and then if I hit that, that'll probably go 0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:57.240 to you. 0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:01.119 But you're always all all the way Nashville, so it'll 0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.039 it'll take you a while, unless it won't because it 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:05.120 happens instantaneously. 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:08.120 Yeah, and it's alien technology or iPhone, so. 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:10.400 That is true. I believe that to be true. So 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:11.800 the yeah, the hat, it's a go. 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:13.159 I'll import to your message. 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:15.279 So it's got the poutine there. It's got a nice 0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:18.120 picture of fries with the you know, the poutine that's 0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:22.000 putine and then it says under it the Canadian salad, 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:24.320 the Canadian salad. 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:25.800 Do you wear this in public? 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:28.600 I wore to work. I don't know, let I wear 0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:30.960 it in but maybe? Okay, Well, I don't know. 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:33.280 That's a good looking a hat though, come on, that's 0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:35.159 that's rare now, you know, not many people have a 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:38.159 poutine hat. And it's got I didn't even notice this, 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.359 but it's got the Canadian logo on one side, and 0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:44.280 then that's the I think that's from Quebec, which is 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:46.480 where poutine came from in Canada. 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:46.919 Right, I think that. 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:48.200 Yeah, that's what it looks like. 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.039 Either that or it's the New Orleans Saints thing. You 0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:53.960 know that thing in the Louisiana is it? What is 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:55.760 that thing called? I don't know the term point. 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:57.800 It's like the tip of a barbed wire fence. 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:01.120 Yeah, sure, that's it. Yeah, that's it. So I wore that. 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:01.719 I like that. 0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:04.560 I'm a big hat guy, as you know, so I 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:05.479 was very happy. 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.800 It's one of the more unique hats I have that 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:11.599 I've been wearing the big timber hat from the high 0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:15.440 school in Montana, the goat herders, so that's been in 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:16.280 my rotation here. 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:17.360 I'm on the trendy train. 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:18.200 I am. 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:21.200 I am on the trendy train. 0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:26.760 It's true, man, I am all about it. 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:27.960 It doesn't matter whatever design. 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:30.120 You know, you talk about fashion, You've got you know, 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.280 different fashion design whatever. 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:32.840 I'm there. 0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:37.720 I'm like Hollywood glam, I'm mid section, mid century modern whatever. 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:38.200 I don't know. 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:39.880 I don't even know what those terms mean, by the way, 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:43.360 but I just said them. So that was the new 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:48.279 hat there, very very very exciting. And when I wore 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:53.280 the hat, I drove into the studio in Los Angeles, 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.719 so you could say, Danny I was dodging two bullets 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.440 while I was doing that, depending on what neighborhood in 0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:01.800 Los Angeles I was driving through to get too said 0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:07.039 studio to do the show. In a very nice neighborhood 0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:10.200 that surprisingly has some very strange people late at night 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:12.600 when I'm doing the show walking around Ben. 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:16.440 When you think of Disney resorts, you don't usually think 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:19.920 about death or near death experiences. 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:22.120 That's not usually in the brochure that they know. 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.720 Yeah, I mean, you know, I don't think anybody's died 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:28.120 on the Dumbo ride. Last week on vacation, we're in 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:32.120 the hotel room and my wife was changing little Koha. 0:07:32.560 --> 0:07:35.040 These beds were high and I told my wife he 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:37.880 went I noticed it. I said, boy, we better keep 0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:41.120 a hawkeye on the little one because you know, he's 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:44.360 moving at the speed of light right now. He's like 0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:49.000 Usain Bolt. You turn your head and he's five rolls 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.200 away from you. He's damn near crawling right now. And 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:55.040 he does this thing, this ninja move where if you 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:57.800 think back to the Karate Kid, one of the punks 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:01.800 that Daniel fought in the competition and did that spider 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:05.720 slide on his back, co has been doing that. Well. 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:08.440 She was changing him. She went to grab a diaper 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:13.040 off the dresser there in the hotel room, and all 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:18.280 I hear was bunk and then a baby screaming. He 0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:27.320 rolled his butt off the bed, took a dive. I 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:29.840 think it was God looking out for us Ben because 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:32.520 he landed flush on his back. 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:33.800 He didn't mess. 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:38.640 Oh thank god. I mean, had his head hit first 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:42.199 or his body hit first, it would have been completely 0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:47.240 bad news, which would have ruined the trip. So you know, 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:49.240 we pick him up. I think it just scared him 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:51.920 more than anything. And that's the first time he's ever 0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:55.360 rolled off of bed, and I'm thinking, Man, bad timing here. 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:57.320 We're trying to have fun on a vacation and this 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.960 kid trying to scare the shit out of us. Fast 0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:04.400 forward to two days later, my wife he goes on 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:07.760 the Lazy River with her oldest and they leave me 0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:10.720 in charge of Koa in the hotel room. So I 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.599 do this thing where I pile up all his toys 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:17.120 and he sits up. I prop pillows around him so 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:20.240 that it's almost like a little fort About an hour 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.040 into playing with toys, he got, you know, like all 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:26.079 of us, He's like, yeah, what's next. I'm bored with this. 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:28.600 And I could tell he wanted to stretch, he wanted 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.040 to roll around. I don't want to put him on 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:32.880 the hotel floor, so I put him right in the 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:35.320 middle of the bed and I'm like, all right, dude, 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.880 I'm gonna let you roll, but I'm gonna watch you. 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:41.560 You know you ain't going on the floor again. Ben, 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:46.160 This little dude did the backslide like a spider. I 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:49.320 saw it all happening in slow emotion, right before my eyes. 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:54.200 He slid down the side of the bed. I dove. 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:56.880 I grabbed him by the waist and was able to 0:09:56.920 --> 0:09:59.160 move his head away from hitting the lip of the 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:04.000 bed frame. But he was like somebody parachuting and you 0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:07.800 know when they land on their legs really hard. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:12.520 that's what he did. Oh boy, he's screaming, bloody murder. 0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:16.400 Holy shit, did he break a leg? Did his fat 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:17.880 thunder thigh save him? 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:20.120 Yes? Wow. 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:23.440 I get him to calm down, and you know, it 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.240 seemed like his legs were a little sore, but no damage. 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:30.400 About twenty thirty minutes later, he was smiling and playing 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:35.000 and I was like, man, not only did we dodge 0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:39.520 one bullet, we dodged two bullets. Him rolling off the 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:43.959 bed twice on the trip, and he avoided injuries both times. 0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:48.880 But now I'm traumatized because anytime my girl has had 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:50.800 him on the bed even to change them. I go 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:52.800 over and I like hold him, I pin him down, 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:55.239 like dude, you ain't moving a little wiggleworhim. 0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:57.240 Yeah, he's well, isn't that? 0:10:57.600 --> 0:10:59.840 Remember the comedian I forget who it was probably even 0:10:59.880 --> 0:11:02.040 more than one comedian, and his whole routine was like 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.720 a kid for the first couple of years. Your only 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.920 job is to keep them alive, keep them from killing themselves, right, 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:11.360 that's pretty much it keep them putting their fingers in 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:15.560 electrical sockets or you know, falling off beds. You brought 0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:20.320 up the hotel thing, and according to the National Fall 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:22.439 Safety Institute, I have no idea what that is. 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:23.959 It sounds important. 0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:27.400 The National Fall Safety Institute, there was a study done 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:35.360 that claimed hotel injuries accidents at hotels lead to over 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:38.840 seven million emergency room business have led to over seven 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:42.720 hundred million or seven million emergency visits and at least 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:44.720 thirty six thousand every year. 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:46.800 Damn. You know. 0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:48.960 There's a lot of hotels though, too, And. 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:52.680 I think part of it is probably because you're not 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.959 used to your surroundings the way you are at home. 0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:59.320 Well, and a couple of years, he will then treat 0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:03.640 the bed like a professional wrestling ring brother, and or 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:07.160 the floor is lava, and that'll be another fun thing 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:10.680 when you go to hotels. Right the next my niece 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:13.280 broke her nose. They were playing on the bed, jumping 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:16.320 up and down, and they boom and had some mother. 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:19.960 I always have heard parents tell stories about their kids 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.240 falling off beds, and I thought to myself at the time, 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:26.200 how could you allow that to happen? Now I know 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:28.720 because when it was on my watch, he did it 0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:30.120 right in front of my face. 0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:32.920 That's wild. So you did. You did dodge a couple 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:33.920 bullets there, you did. 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:37.960 How was the food situation in Hawaii this weekended you 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:40.600 or not this weekend last week when. 0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:42.760 You were the week Yeah, you know, it was good. 0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:47.239 It was resort food most of the time, super expensive, 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:49.480 but we expected that. You know, everything has to be 0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:53.520 imported to the islands, obviously, so there's a huge markup, 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:56.160 and then it's a tourist trap on top of that. 0:12:56.760 --> 0:13:00.000 So a couple of times we went to store plazas 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:03.600 where more of the locals were hanging out, found some 0:13:03.679 --> 0:13:05.480 good food. And then there were there was the one 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:08.720 incident with the Mexican restaurant, which maybe I could touch 0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:12.560 on Tomorrow on Tomorrow's podcast, which was a bad meal. 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:16.520 But other than that, good food, good sunshine. There was 0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:19.600 rain half the time, but the sun would shine for 0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:22.280 twenty minutes. It would rain for twenty minutes, back and forth. 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:24.839 Off the air, you were telling me Miami and parts 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:27.400 of Florida are kind of like that when it was 0:13:27.480 --> 0:13:30.360 tropical and the sun was shining. Oh man, it felt 0:13:30.760 --> 0:13:32.400 really good. It was rejuvenating. 0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:34.360 Yeah, Miami. 0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:37.720 I've only been there once, but I was in Miami 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:41.400 and they would rain in the afternoon. It's one of 0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:43.480 the reasons, like the baseball team, they didn't have a 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.319 dome when the Marlins started playing there. 0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:47.120 Now they have a dome. 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:49.560 But they started playing like they'd always have rain delays 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:52.560 because it it would just pass through in the evening time. 0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:55.400 There'd be evening showers for like an hour or whatever, 0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:58.800 and then they'd play it out and be able to 0:13:58.920 --> 0:13:59.560 play the game. 0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:03.040 Somebody reindoler it was a pain. Pain in the ass. 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:07.280 So large and in charge, Large and in charge the 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:11.240 one hundred most obese cities in the United States, according 0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:13.480 to a new study.

We do not do list. 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:23.240 No, No, I think I know the answer to this though. 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:23.920 Okay. 0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:27.720 I ate at a diner in Idaho, and I have 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:30.520 never seen so many large people in my life. 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:35.080 I know I am looking here.

Inside this diner, 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:43.560 it was like, man, and all these people in here 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:46.160 look like they are packing the potatoes. 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:51.360 All right, So let's get into this. This is a 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.840 study done. Let me see who did this. 0:14:55.280 --> 0:15:01.560 Wallet Hub measured several lifestyle factors, including activial level, heart disease, diabetes, 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:05.880 and access to healthy foods to determine which of the 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.360 country is lacking. 0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:12.080 And then there's some other crap in here. 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.560 Let's just do top Ten's see if you can you 0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:18.200 get any You think how many of the top ten 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:20.160 do you think you'll get on the big board? 0:15:20.680 --> 0:15:26.440 Danny, Ah, well, probably probably three. 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:28.120 So you think you can get three.

And the number. 0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:38.440 Number one. 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:42.760 We go to the great State of Texas. McCallen, Texas 0:17:42.880 --> 0:17:46.679 is number one. That is on the southern border with Mexico, 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:50.399 and it scored an eighty five point five out of 0:17:50.440 --> 0:17:51.720 one hundred and nearly half of. 0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:53.280 The adults or obese. 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:56.639 It's a city of one hundred and forty four thousand, 0:17:57.280 --> 0:17:59.680 and it has high rates of heart disease and diabetes 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:06.400 and all of that. So congratulations to McCallum, McCallum, Texas, 0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:07.359 you're number one. 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.080 So the math, let me do the math on that. 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:13.360 So one hundred and forty four thousand, so that means 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:16.879 there are seventy two thousand fat people. 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:20.520 There is half well I said nearly half, so maybe 0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:24.520 not exactly seventy two, but a lot, but a lot, 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:30.400 you know. But the obese thing, the what's the measurement 0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:36.000 they use? The get the term? I think there's people 0:18:36.000 --> 0:18:37.480 they say that are a beasts that I don't think 0:18:37.520 --> 0:18:39.320 are obese. You know, you know what I mean? Like 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:41.560 the the fat what's the measurement they use? 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:43.760 If oh, the doctor punches you in the gut and 0:18:43.800 --> 0:18:45.160 sees how much it jiggles. 0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:51.040 Yeah, like jello. That's a pain in. 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:54.600 The mister, g you're really jiggling in this visit. 0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:56.680 Pain in the keyster time. 0:18:56.800 --> 0:18:59.080 Now for the phrase all of the week, not to 0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:00.840 be confused with the word the week or the idiom 0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:03.879 of the week. This is the phrase of the week. 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:09.359 Phrase of the. 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:11.520 Phrase of the week is rule of thumb. Rule of 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:15.200 thumb is the phrase of the week. And you might 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:17.239 have heard this over the years, but yeah, it has 0:19:17.320 --> 0:19:20.919 a very dark, very dark meaning. It goes back to 0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:23.280 the seventeen hundred. You can trace it back to the 0:19:23.320 --> 0:19:27.160 seventeen hundreds. In England there was a judge named Sir 0:19:27.240 --> 0:19:35.440 Francis Buehler, Bruehler. Buehler, Sir Francis Bueller. And in seventeen 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:40.159 eighty two, this guy determined, he said, you know what, 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:43.920 if you're married, as a husband, you are legally allowed 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:47.920 to beat the shit out of your wife, provided that 0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:51.199 you use a stick that is no winder, no wider 0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:53.959 than the thumb. So as long as you do that, 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:58.919 you're good. That became the rule of thumb. So the 0:19:59.000 --> 0:20:01.040 rule of thumb is, what if you have a really 0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:03.600 wide finger, Danny, Like, what if what if your finger 0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:05.399 is like the size of a baseball bat? 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:05.679 Like what? 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:07.280 I don't know what you do with that? But that 0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:10.560 is kind of crazy, isn't it. That's wild that that 0:20:10.680 --> 0:20:16.080 became part of the lexicon, the rule of thumb, all 0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:16.640 because of. 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:20.160 I would have never thought it came from violence, from 0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:21.200 domestic violence. 0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:22.680 Yeah. 0:20:22.800 --> 0:20:24.879 I thought it was like, you know how you measure 0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:27.840 with Sometimes with your thumb, you'll measure something small. 0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:30.080 Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. You go with your hand like 0:20:30.359 --> 0:20:32.640 one hand, two, okay, that's thre three hands there. 0:20:33.040 --> 0:20:35.600 Yeah, yeah, I know this is this is all about 0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:38.920 beaten beating up your wife with a stick. As long 0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:40.520 as it's just the size of your thumb, you're good. 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:43.320 You're imagine that that judge must have been quite the 0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:44.760
