Speaker 6: Well right now? I think she killed Princess Diana basically,
Speaker 6: so we don't really like her that much? Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 6: I don't want to get into conspiracies that much, but
Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure she.
Speaker 2: She fucking killed it that no we could get because
Speaker 2: here's the thing about when we talk about, like, you know,
Speaker 2: British conspiracy, I have no horse in the race. So, like,
Speaker 2: you know, if I'll believe any conspiracy about any you
Speaker 2: know thing British because I don't, I don't know any better.
Speaker 6: Yeah, No, I think that she she knew that that
Speaker 6: that Andrew guy was a pedo, and and she knew
Speaker 6: that was coming and then she got killed for pretty much.
Speaker 2: Damn.
Speaker 6: I think of British people would agree with me on that.
Speaker 2: The only British person I think I've ever spoken to
Speaker 2: in my entire life. So your in the information that
Speaker 2: you provide me makes up the whole of my information
Speaker 2: about Britain. In the British government. I've never even read
Speaker 2: an article on the Internet about Britain, and so whatever
Speaker 2: you tell me I will believe at face value.
Speaker 6: Well, then I definitely think you should believe that that
Speaker 6: the Queen did kill Princess Diana.
Speaker 2: She absolutely did.
Speaker 3: She did that.
Speaker 2: I hope that she, you know, I hope that she
Speaker 2: has brought to justice through the British justice system that
Speaker 2: where they have the little where they have that little
Speaker 2: thing where you have your like that yeah fucking thing.
Speaker 6: I don't know, we've got here. Man, We'll see she's
Speaker 6: the main leader. So like if we call justice against her,
Speaker 6: she she can discancel that stuff. Man, Okay, she's got
Speaker 6: that power.
Speaker 2: We'll figure we'll get her. We'll do something.
Speaker 6: You and me, Well yeah, well you you bring your
Speaker 6: American swat team over and we'll saw something out. You
Speaker 6: can say, mind, if you need to stay a night
Speaker 6: or something, do.
Speaker 2: You have I've got what's your bathroom situation?
Speaker 6: I'll give you.
Speaker 2: Really, we don't have to share one, Huh, I said,
Speaker 2: we don't have to share one.
Speaker 6: Not unless you don't want to.
Speaker 2: Because what happens is like if I'm in a situation,
Speaker 2: I get a little like if I have to take
Speaker 2: a ship. And then you know those ships that like
Speaker 2: take a long time to recover from you. I'm talking about.
Speaker 6: The ones that like that that's for twenty minutes and
Speaker 6: you don't know if you're finished it, and you you're not,
Speaker 6: so whether you should wipe yet, and then and then
Speaker 6: when you do, you almost feel a bit wrong for
Speaker 6: wipe him because you think there might still be some
Speaker 6: left in there them kud ones.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And if the thing is it takes me a
Speaker 2: long time to kind of I don't want to be
Speaker 2: rushed and I don't want to make you outside way.
Speaker 2: It's like if we both because I don't want to
Speaker 2: get into the situation where we both have stuff like
Speaker 2: that going on. Anyway, Well, I'll come over, I'll call
Speaker 2: the people that I'll call my the only I'll call
Speaker 2: my friends. We'll come over, we'll figure something out, we'll
Speaker 2: deal with this. And I let me tell you something, BB,
Speaker 2: I appreciate you you calling into this this this year street.
Speaker 6: Well, can I can I ask for my advice now?
Speaker 6: Because that was just like I was just making small
Speaker 6: talk that I would like to ask my piece of
Speaker 6: advice because I thought that was all poisons in thing.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 2: Let me you know, I don't really know what the
Speaker 2: point of this thing is, but I think we're figuring
Speaker 2: it out together as we go on. Yeah, and I
Speaker 2: appreciate you playing in this process.
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, like realistically that the conversation we just
Speaker 6: had fire was that was the problem house. Really, I
Speaker 6: really wanted to just lead on to my question to you. Well,
Speaker 6: I was just being polite, as we Brits easily are.
Speaker 2: This is a question that I can answer in under
Speaker 2: one minute.
Speaker 6: It might be yes, or no answer.
Speaker 2: Would you be satisfied with a yes or no answer.
Speaker 6: I'd be satisfied with the three word answer.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 6: So basically I got a girlfriends recently, and and I'm
Speaker 6: quite familiar in my sex life. But she likes to
Speaker 6: mix things up a little bit. And basically she is bisexual,
Speaker 6: and she quite likes to peg people. And I have
Speaker 6: no inclinations towards being gay at all, and gay sex
Speaker 6: does not attract me in the slightest that she basically
Speaker 6: just wants to take me. And I was just wondering, like,
Speaker 6: should I let her peg me or not?
Speaker 2: Try new things?
Speaker 9: Huh?
Speaker 2: Try new things?
Speaker 6: That's a good for you, adapting.
Speaker 2: I love you, bb, I'll talk to you again soon.
Speaker 6: I love you too. You've got my number if I need.
Speaker 2: You, absolutely good.
Speaker 6: Nay man, I'll see you, see man when you come to.
Speaker 11: Fuck.
Speaker 2: I hung up on him accidentally. Oh yeah, but I
Speaker 2: think he was going to say, when I come to
Speaker 2: his house, how much does it cost to get to England?
Speaker 2: Like twenty? Like how many pounds.
Speaker 1: All from get go?
Speaker 5: Two point zero?
Speaker 2: Gecko? Two point zero? Is that you?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: It's me all right, so give me I want to
Speaker 2: what I want to hear from you, is you know,
Speaker 2: when you go to update and app and it sort
Speaker 2: of tells you, like the little of the fixes, right y,
Speaker 2: it tells you like, what's what's what's new in the update?
Speaker 2: Your GETO two point Oh, tell me what's what's new

Speaker 5: Okay? Well, first of all, oh, get go suit. I've
Speaker 5: already shaved, I've already sheded my skin, so that's great.

Speaker 2: Longer lifespan?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what I mean?
Speaker 2: How long are we talking here?
Speaker 5: Well? Would you like to tell the listeners how long
Speaker 5: your lifespan is?
Speaker 2: About fourteen years?
Speaker 5: Okay? Well, I'm not at liberty to say actually tricked it?
Speaker 2: What the fuck? Why did you do that to me?
Speaker 2: I trusted you? You know why we were supposed to
Speaker 2: pull the lever there.
Speaker 5: Yeah. The Gecko two point zero is gnarlier, meaner and
Speaker 5: last year.
Speaker 2: Oh all right, I respect that and I respect you.
Speaker 2: What else is new? And Gecko two point zero?
Speaker 5: Uh? Lack of appreciation for holidays hates this version of
Speaker 5: tech hates Thanksgiving?
Speaker 2: Oh okay, interesting? What interesting have at Christmas? Hey does
Speaker 2: does gek two point oh hate Christmas.
Speaker 5: Gek two point zero fucking wants to kill Christmas.
Speaker 2: Oh god, all right, that's pretty intense.
Speaker 5: Mm hmmm, keep asking ask me another holiday. Watch what I'll.
Speaker 2: Say, Uh, Roshashana, be careful with that.
Speaker 5: Actually, well it's you say that. Gek two point zero
Speaker 5: doesn't hate russ Shana, just refuses politely to acknowledge it.
Speaker 2: All right, Well you know that's that's that sounds reasonable.
Speaker 5: Well, it's just because I think, yeah, so.
Speaker 2: You're going get to point oh is gnarlier, nastier and edgier,
Speaker 2: which again I respect. Look my favorite video game growing up,
Speaker 2: you know, Shadow of the Hedgehog. I Love, I Love
Speaker 2: I I Love myself an edgy reboot. You know, so
Speaker 2: I respect you hate holidays? And then that it? What else?
Speaker 5: Get two point zero? Also in this new update heartbroken?
Speaker 2: Heartbroken? Is that I like to think? Okay, So here's
Speaker 2: a circle here, Gak two point zero. I believe was
Speaker 2: broken up with on Ra Shashana. And that's why they
Speaker 2: don't hate it. They refuse to acknowledge it because they
Speaker 2: don't even want to enter the emotional realm of Russhashana.
Speaker 2: So Gak two point oh was broken up with on
Speaker 2: ro Shashana and then because of that, because of the
Speaker 2: anger in Gak to Heart, he's become edgy year, he's
Speaker 2: become gnarlier, he's become nastier. You know, is that accurate?
Speaker 2: I mean, what's the story here? What happened on Rohashana
Speaker 2: Gak two point zero?
Speaker 5: It's close? And you know this. I have to say
Speaker 5: your detective work here was pretty good because you got close,
Speaker 5: uh not broken up with on roster Shana instead rejected
Speaker 5: because Get two point oh has never had a partner.
Speaker 2: Well we'll we'll have to fix that in Get three
Speaker 2: point oh.
Speaker 5: Well, I would like to see them try. I'm pretty
Speaker 5: sure I'll be the last model. But but uh, you know,
Speaker 5: you know how it is.

Speaker 11: I love therapy get I was on the show.
Speaker 2: Interesting. I'm glad. Look, I'm glad to know that these
Speaker 2: connections are being made, you know. I'm trying to crisscross
Speaker 2: the little constellations of the stars and the moon.
Speaker 5: And then the last bit and then so that's the
Speaker 5: one person, and then another person. In the last few weeks,
Speaker 5: I saw my Instagram stories again post you, and I
Speaker 5: messaged them saying so I wanted to say, I met
Speaker 5: I ran into two acquaintances of.
Speaker 2: The person you tried? What fuck? What's the one that
Speaker 2: I'm in the magazines, I'm on TV. You can't raise

Speaker 13: What is the craziest thing that you've ever done?
Speaker 2: CLI have a question for you? Yes, what's the craziest
Speaker 2: thing that you've ever done?
Speaker 9: What's the craziest thing that you've ever done?
Speaker 13: I told you I wasn't that interesting.
Speaker 2: Cloye, I have a question for you. What's the craziest
Speaker 2: thing you've ever done?
Speaker 6: I told you that's I'm interesting.
Speaker 9: Mister Gotto.
Speaker 2: Hello, what's your name?
Speaker 8: Sarah?
Speaker 2: What are you doing right now? Sarah?
Speaker 8: Watching you on Twitch?
Speaker 9: Buddy?
Speaker 2: What were you doing today at noon?
Speaker 8: I am a vet tech, so I was working with
Speaker 8: a very sick job.
Speaker 2: That's kind of sad.
Speaker 8: Yeah it is, but we've the dog is doing well,
Speaker 8: so it was a happy story.
Speaker 7: Yes.
Speaker 5: Good.
Speaker 2: I was going to ask you, in your professional opinion,
Speaker 2: if you think the dog is going to make it.
Speaker 8: The dog did make it. The dog did make it
Speaker 8: because my team and I are very good.
Speaker 1: At what we do.
Speaker 2: All right, How look, how do you you must see
Speaker 2: dogs die? Like every day?
Speaker 8: I do?
Speaker 5: I do.
Speaker 8: That's probably one of the harder parts of the profession.
Speaker 2: How do you deal with that? How do you deal
Speaker 2: with seeing dogs die every day? It's easier? Do you
Speaker 2: ever get to sensitized it?
Speaker 8: No, it's not desensitized. It's almost as if it is
Speaker 8: acceptance because we have some really hard situations come in
Speaker 8: and towards the end of it, it's better for the
Speaker 8: animal to be able to pass on with help rather
Speaker 8: than sit there and suffer and extend out that pain.
Speaker 8: So it's a humane thing to be able to do.
Speaker 8: And like, I still cry. I don't think I'll ever
Speaker 8: not cry because somebody's losing somebody very near and dear
Speaker 8: to them, an animal and it's heartbreaking.
Speaker 2: Does it ever make you like reflect about your own mortality.
Speaker 5: It does.
Speaker 12: It does.
Speaker 8: It's really there are moments where when an animal comes
Speaker 8: in and we know that they're not going to make it.
Speaker 8: It just makes you think about everyday stuff where you're like,
Speaker 8: what if I don't see my daughter at the end
Speaker 8: of the day because I get into our car accident.
Speaker 8: That might be a little morbid, but it makes you
Speaker 8: appreciate life more.
Speaker 2: It's true because life is morbid. I mean, it is
Speaker 2: no more than I do. I you know, you see it,
Speaker 2: and it's good because I feel like all the time
Speaker 2: we're walking around as if we're never going to die.
Speaker 2: It's nice. I don't know if the word is nice,
Speaker 2: but I feel like it's important to think about your
Speaker 2: own death all the time. I know that that sounds
Speaker 2: like I'm joking, but I'm actually not.
Speaker 8: No, that's actually called suicidal idealization. It's a thing that
Speaker 8: most human beings do. Like say you're driving down the
Speaker 8: road and you just think about turning your car to
Speaker 8: the left into the guardrail, like a lot of people
Speaker 8: do that, and you don't.
Speaker 5: Talk about it.
Speaker 2: Amanda, you said your name is no Sarah. What's the
Speaker 2: craziest thing you've ever done? Oh?
Speaker 8: God, I have to think about that. There were a
Speaker 8: lot of alcohol field days in my life. So I
Speaker 8: lived in a college town and I partied a lot
Speaker 8: in my early twenties. I am no longer a spring chicken.
Speaker 8: But so there was this amphitheater in the middle of
Speaker 8: the town, and it was notorious for being broken into
Speaker 8: and like climbing up to the very top of it,
Speaker 8: and like most of the time, people bring like carabineers
Speaker 8: like hook themselves on and I decided, after about a
Speaker 8: half a bottle of vodka to climb it up the
Speaker 8: very very very large amphitheater up into the rasters without
Speaker 8: any protection, and I slipped and I caught myself. So
Speaker 8: that was cool.
Speaker 2: Geez, you couldn't wind it up.
Speaker 8: One of that Exactly. After that, I kind of calmed
Speaker 8: down a little bit. I was like, no, I remember
Speaker 8: last night, so maybe we should start thinking about the
Speaker 8: future a little more.
Speaker 2: Have you done anything dangerous since or you've calmed down?
Speaker 2: You know? I feel like you see you see all
Speaker 2: these dogs, and you're like, I don't want to wind
Speaker 2: up like one of the dogs. I'm not going to
Speaker 2: climb up high heights anymore.
Speaker 8: I've climbed down a lot more and still adventurous. I
Speaker 8: live up in the mountains, so there's always a lot
Speaker 8: of crazy stuff to do. But yeah, i'd say also
Speaker 8: having two daughters has also helped me calm down because
Speaker 8: my kids need me.
Speaker 2: Beautiful. Well, Sarah, you know, good luck to you. I
Speaker 2: wish you me you know, health, give my best to
Speaker 2: the dogs.
Speaker 8: Absolutely, man, Thank you so much. This was delightful.
Speaker 2: Pleasure was all mine. You have a good rest of
Speaker 2: the evening, Sarah, you too. Bye. It's my impression and
Speaker 2: one of the dogs that was just sad. I shouldn't
Speaker 2: have done that. I kind of made myself said, I
Speaker 2: don't know why I did that. I take that back.
Speaker 2: I shouldn't have done an impression just now of a
Speaker 2: dying dog. That's not funny.
Speaker 1: All from pretty justin, justin, justin, Ay, what's going on?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 2: Not a whole lot, you see?
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 2: Look, I know that we don't know each other very well,
Speaker 2: but you seem like a really cool guy from the
Speaker 2: very very very small amount of information that I have
Speaker 2: about you.
Speaker 10: Well, man, you're pretty cool too. We've talked before once.
Speaker 2: What did we talk about?
Speaker 10: It was me and my buddy and we're driving from Colorado,
Speaker 10: and we told you our friendship story and we had
Speaker 10: a snake and yes, we bought in the back of
Speaker 10: a McDonald's and.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, yes, I remember you. You're beautiful. I remember
Speaker 2: you clear as day. Justin. You hung out with me
Speaker 2: and my good friend Max, and you told us about
Speaker 2: about about I forget, I forget your I forget your
Speaker 2: friend's name, but I remember you. Just Tate, Taylor, Taylor,
Speaker 2: Justin and Taylor. Isn't that a? Is it a brand
Speaker 2: of some kind? Justin Taylor? Is that like a It's
Speaker 2: like a pock book with.
Speaker 10: That name, right, dude, I really hope.
Speaker 2: So, man, Justin, what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 10: Man? So this happened actually like two weeks ago. It's
Speaker 10: not the craziest thing, but it's the story. So I
Speaker 10: have this GM man. She she was a new hire.
Speaker 10: She didn't know about the field that we're working in,
Speaker 10: and she was she has signed me to a job
Speaker 10: that's only for store managers to do. So I come
Speaker 10: up there, she called and sick, and so I text
Speaker 10: my district manager a picture of a temperature I had
Speaker 10: like a couple of weeks ago, like a couple of
Speaker 10: months ago, and it was like one hundred and one
Speaker 10: point one or something, and I was like, hey, look
Speaker 10: I don't know what's going on, but I had this
Speaker 10: tempture I'll get everything done and she's like, no, drop
Speaker 10: everything and leave.
Speaker 5: So I was like all right, cool.
Speaker 10: Cool, So man, I did that and it kind of
Speaker 10: resulted in me being offered the last two weeks and
Speaker 10: being able to look for a new job.
Speaker 2: Where are you thinking? What Wait's the wildest thing you've
Speaker 2: ever done was get sick?
Speaker 10: No, I wasn't sick at the time. I saved a
Speaker 10: picture of like a thermometer picture that I took, so
Speaker 10: like one point like I had a tempture was because
Speaker 10: I didn't get enough sleep and it was late at night,
Speaker 10: and I was like, man, I took this tenture and
Speaker 10: I was like, man, I should show my my district manager,
Speaker 10: you know, But I didn't. I was like, I got
Speaker 10: to save this for a really good time, you know, just.
Speaker 2: In care So you you you you had a picture
Speaker 2: of a high temperature that you were using as like
Speaker 2: a little little trap card you were keeping in your
Speaker 2: wallet that you decided to play two weeks ago exactly.
Speaker 2: You do know that there are many many ways to
Speaker 2: fake a picture of your temperature.
Speaker 10: You know what, at the time, I wasn't being that creative,
Speaker 10: and I used the storage thermometer and I was in
Speaker 10: one of the offices, so they knew I was there.
Speaker 10: They knew I was there. So I was just like, man,
Speaker 10: you know what, like, fuck this job, fucked this chick
Speaker 10: like she's so rude to everybody around us, and you know,
Speaker 10: it was just something that had to be justin, justin,
Speaker 10: what's up?
Speaker 2: I tell you this because you're my friend and I
Speaker 2: believe in you. One day, your deception towards your fellow
Speaker 2: of humans, it will come back to bite you, all right,
Speaker 2: one day. I mean, look, you're sending people fake picture.
Speaker 2: I mean there's a real picture, but you're you're twisting
Speaker 2: other people's reality. You know what happens when you when
Speaker 2: you twist reality, justin, it twists back at you. All Right,
Speaker 2: one day you're gonna wake up, the sky is gonna
Speaker 2: be green. You're not gonna know what the hell is
Speaker 2: going on, and you're gonna wonder what's going when you're
Speaker 2: gonna wonder what happened, And it's because you decided to
Speaker 2: mess with other people's perception of reality and what you
Speaker 2: know they believe is true and what they believe is fake,
Speaker 2: and that's gonna come back in your direction, and you're
Speaker 2: gonna look down and your hands are gonna be where
Speaker 2: your feet are, and your feet are gonna be where
Speaker 2: you hands are, and shit, so I think you should
Speaker 2: make amends before your world twists and turns any further.
Speaker 10: I think you're right, man, this is the one time thing.
Speaker 10: And if my hands really deep turn into my feet,
Speaker 10: I'd love to be able to finally do a handstand.
Speaker 2: Though, that would be kind of cool.
Speaker 10: But but your advice is definitely noted.
Speaker 6: This is a.
Speaker 10: It was a it was a great time off, but
Speaker 10: you're right man, I actually went back to work today.
Speaker 2: I appreciate you justin thank you again for calling in
Speaker 2: and at peace be with you, and may you come
Speaker 2: to your senses and follow your conscious before your world collapses.
Speaker 10: You're right, won't let rome collapse?
Speaker 5: Got you be blud.
Speaker 2: Just appreciate you. You be blessed as well.
Speaker 12: Bye, awesome, key, Keith, I'm hey, what.
Speaker 2: Is your life like? Keith? Wait? Keith?
Speaker 14: Yeah, I can hear you now, what's that?
Speaker 2: What's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Speaker 14: Oh wow, a lot of crazy shit. Let's get skydiving,
Speaker 14: because we all know that story jobs. Can you either
Speaker 14: die or you don't.
Speaker 9: But yeah, this.
Speaker 14: One time I would see kayaking next to a humpback
Speaker 14: whale in her calf, and I thought she wasn't killed
Speaker 14: for sure. The only reason I did it was because
Speaker 14: I didn't want my girlfriend at the time to be killed.
Speaker 6: By a whale or to not be able.
Speaker 9: To make it back.
Speaker 14: So yeah, that was pretty nut.
Speaker 2: So you went to accompany your girlfriend.
Speaker 14: Yeah, we were hanging out on a little beach, which
Speaker 14: I mean, that's a new beach in Maley. So for
Speaker 14: those of you who were curious about that earlier, I
Speaker 14: highly recommend it. Here's a drum circle and fire spinning
Speaker 14: every Sunday.
Speaker 2: Could you do me a favorite? Could you? Could you?
Speaker 2: Could you? Could you speak a little bit louder into
Speaker 2: into your friend? I can't hear you? Super Bowl?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 14: Yeah, sure, okay? Here how's that? Can you hear me?
Speaker 2: Get oh a little bit better? I like this, Keith.
Speaker 2: This is new Keith.
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 14: Sweet, Yeah, I feel like a new man.
Speaker 9: All right.
Speaker 2: So all right, your girl had a thirst for a whale.
Speaker 2: Why did she go whales?
Speaker 14: Because the first for this is my former partner.
Speaker 5: We're still friends.
Speaker 6: What's all good.
Speaker 14: She has a way of making questionable decisions. These guys
Speaker 14: borrowed our sea kayak that we rented, and while they
Speaker 14: were out and about uh this, this whale and her
Speaker 14: caf came in. It's about that time of year and Maori,
Speaker 14: let's say like February when the huntback whales come to it.
Speaker 2: Yes, the time when the whales come out.
Speaker 14: And the whales got really far away. So those guys
Speaker 14: like came back into shore and she was like, I'm
Speaker 14: not taking no for an answer, like I'm going out
Speaker 14: and I was like, there's no way you're coming back.
Speaker 14: Like if you go out alone, you know she's not
Speaker 14: able bodied.
Speaker 2: You don't think you don't think she could take on
Speaker 2: a whale. But here, okay, let's be honest. Though here
Speaker 2: you're saying that she on her own can't couldn't take
Speaker 2: a whale. But look, I'm gonna let's be honest with
Speaker 2: this elves here. I don't think you be in there
Speaker 2: is gonna make that much of a difference either, because
Speaker 2: the whale is gonna fuck you up too.
Speaker 14: I love the imagery here of its battling a whale,
Speaker 14: but it was really it was a distance and the
Speaker 14: possibility of getting washed out in the current et cetera.
Speaker 14: And I mean, get going that far offshore in a
Speaker 14: sea kayak. It's pretty nuts in and of itself. But
Speaker 14: to be that close to a humpback whale that may
Speaker 14: or may not decide just to fuck us up to
Speaker 14: defend her baby, really, I.
Speaker 2: Mean you were saying you were going along with her
Speaker 2: to protect her from the whale. But are you trained
Speaker 2: in whale combat?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 14: Yes, actually, and thanks to that, we do practice defense
Speaker 14: against whales.
Speaker 2: All right, So what do you What do you do
Speaker 2: when a whale comes after you to fuck you up?
Speaker 14: What's the I mean you basically you want to get
Speaker 14: it in a headlock. It's pretty tough though. You got
Speaker 14: to really stretch your arms out, so you know. That's
Speaker 14: why I do a lot of yoga too, so I
Speaker 14: can get my arms around the whale.
Speaker 2: And how many whales have you defeated with this maneuver?
Speaker 14: Like five or six? They usually win, they're pretty.
Speaker 2: Big, they usually win.
Speaker 14: Yeah, there was a whale at the regional tournaments back
Speaker 14: when I lived in the New England and yeah, fucking
Speaker 14: me up, dude, it's pretty embarrassing.
Speaker 2: So how are you not dead?
Speaker 14: Hey man, I got stamina. You know, I can take
Speaker 14: a punch. I can take a tail to the face.
Speaker 2: As a whale. Ever said something to you that piss
Speaker 2: you off? So you just kind of I know you're
Speaker 2: supposed to be doing this stuff in self defense, but.
Speaker 14: Yeah, it's really hard to piss me off.
Speaker 2: I like whale.
Speaker 14: I like whales, especially humpback whales.
Speaker 5: They're sweet.
Speaker 14: I was particularly afraid of this one because I was like,
Speaker 14: what if it's kind of like a bear, Like we
Speaker 14: talk a lot about bears here in the chat, like we.
Speaker 2: Do, we do talk a lot about bears.
Speaker 14: You go fuck with the bear's kids, like the bear
Speaker 14: is going to kill you and eat you.
Speaker 2: And I was like, yeah, but if you know, Keith's
Speaker 2: gonna suck you up too.
Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're you are correct. I don't know,
Speaker 14: I mean, yeah, you're actually right, but yeah, man, like
Speaker 14: a whale, a whale is basically like a bear from
Speaker 14: the sea. And that's the moral of the story.
Speaker 2: A whale is a bear from the sea. So could
Speaker 2: you fuck up bears too?
Speaker 14: They got those big claws. Man, I don't know. I
Speaker 14: don't know if I can suck up a bear. I
Speaker 14: really don't know.
Speaker 2: We'll have to find that one day.
Speaker 14: I never tried. They smell, I'm sure they smell terrible.
Speaker 14: That's enough to knock you out, and then it's just
Speaker 14: eats you. You don't even get to fight.
Speaker 2: It's a nice you, you know, to protect your girlfriend
Speaker 2: from bears and whales.
Speaker 14: Hey man, we all got to look out for each other.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: She's a lucky girl. Keith.

Speaker 2: when I'm talking and you picture the gecko, the picture
Speaker 2: that I'm Gek, that I'm gecked up. And I could
Speaker 2: lie to you and say that I am, but I
Speaker 2: don't want to do that. You don't want to lie.

Speaker 2: you get to decide your own reality. All right, let's
Speaker 2: let's move on. Let's get back to the Let's get
Speaker 2: back to the program. J mur to accept press on
Speaker 2: Josh Murphy. Yes, do you think you're a good person?
Speaker 5: Uh? Yeah?
Speaker 2: What makes you a good person?
Speaker 4: I like people and dogs.
Speaker 2: Do you think that that would make you a good person?
Speaker 2: I mean the fact that you like people.
Speaker 4: Some people I feel like some people don't like people
Speaker 4: or dogs.
Speaker 2: H what's the wildest thing you've ever done?
Speaker 4: I once hot boxed a shed at the home.
Speaker 2: Depot, like inside the home depot.
Speaker 4: Well, like in the in the parking lot where like
Speaker 4: all the shed furst that up. Me and my buddy
Speaker 4: smoked in the shed.
Speaker 2: Did you get caught?
Speaker 4: Uh no, but it was during closing time. Well so
Speaker 4: we got caught, but he smoked with us. The home
Speaker 4: depot employee was leaving and saw a smoke coming out,
Speaker 4: and we convinced him not to tell and to instead
Speaker 4: smoke weed.
Speaker 2: That's pretty sure, I actually, yeah, it was a fun time.
Speaker 2: Did you keep in contact with the employee afterwards. Did
Speaker 2: you guys become friends?
Speaker 4: No, I have no idea what his name was, but
Speaker 4: he smoked a lot of weeds.
Speaker 2: Did he get real with you about the realities of
Speaker 2: working at home depot? Did he have anything to open
Speaker 2: up to you about.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he said that he worked there for a multiple
Speaker 4: years and he hated his life. I convinced him to
Speaker 4: maybe not work at home deepot anymore, and then he
Speaker 4: didn't really say anything about that.
Speaker 2: Why did he hate working at home depots so much?
Speaker 4: He said, he doesn't like old people. And I think
Speaker 4: that's one of the reasons why I think I'm a
Speaker 4: good person is because old people aren't that bad.
Speaker 2: So you think you're a good person compared to him? Yeah,
Speaker 2: how about.
Speaker 4: Just all on your own, I'd say I'm a decent person.
Speaker 2: All right. So you told this man to stop working
Speaker 2: at home depot and what did you suggest he do? Instead?
Speaker 4: Do whatever he wanted to follow his dreams. He said
Speaker 4: he really liked the outdoors, and I told him go
Speaker 4: live in the woods. But I don't think he's doing that.
Speaker 4: I hope he's not doing that.
Speaker 2: Living in the woods sounds cool. You can get a
Speaker 2: shed and go into the woods and you can hop
Speaker 2: box it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but then you're away from McDonald's and like everything
Speaker 4: else in the world, and you just screwed McDonald's.
Speaker 2: Is that what you want to do? What you want
Speaker 2: to What do you do?
Speaker 5: What do I do?
Speaker 4: I go to school?
Speaker 2: Do you like doing that? Or would you rather work
Speaker 2: at home? Depot?
Speaker 4: I'd rather go to school than work at home, depot?
Speaker 2: Would you rather go to school than live in the woods? Woods?
Speaker 4: But I wouldn't want to live in a shack in
Speaker 4: the woods or a shed in the woods. I would
Speaker 4: rather live in a whole house.
Speaker 2: Are you not satisfied with the simplicity of the woods?
Speaker 2: You need more of a modern modern digs.
Speaker 4: I feel like I would get too lonely if I
Speaker 4: was out in the woods by myself.
Speaker 2: Bring bring a boyfriend or a girlfriend or you know,
Speaker 2: a dog.
Speaker 6: A dog.
Speaker 4: I would yes, I would bring my dog.
Speaker 2: And let me tell you something, all right, what happens
Speaker 2: in the woods stays in the woods. That's what's so
Speaker 2: cool about the woods. Is that the laws of society,
Speaker 2: you know, put into place by you know, elected officials
Speaker 2: and and and you know, just not even that, not
Speaker 2: even that, just you know, the laws of polite society
Speaker 2: that you know, you got to say excuse me after
Speaker 2: your burth and shit like that. You know, Look, the
Speaker 2: laws of polite society, they don't apply in the woods.
Speaker 2: What you say, your name is Josh, Josh. The laws
Speaker 2: of polite society don't apply in the woods, you know,
Speaker 2: so you can do whatever you want there. And and
Speaker 2: you seem like a lawless guy to me. You seem like,
Speaker 2: you know, you be attracted to that kind of you know,
Speaker 2: sort of vagrant lifestyle.
Speaker 4: It would be fun. But there's also scary people that
Speaker 4: could live in the woods, like you possibly skin me.
Speaker 4: I'm not I wouldn't say I'm scary, but you.
Speaker 2: Would be living in the woods. Well, so why are
Speaker 2: you less scary than are there anyone else living in
Speaker 2: the woods?
Speaker 4: Because I would be nice to people, and I wouldn't be.
Speaker 2: Knowing around for you to be nice to.
Speaker 4: Because there's week comes up to my house in the
Speaker 4: middle of the woods and says, hey, man, I see
Speaker 4: you living in the woods. How is it, and I
Speaker 4: would say it's okay, it's the woods.
Speaker 2: What about bears? You call it bears.
Speaker 4: From a distance, I wouldn't. I wouldn't like to be
Speaker 4: with a bear close. I feel like I feel like
Speaker 4: I'm not scary enough.
Speaker 2: To I don't want to get emotionally attached.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, Josh, I appreciate you calling in. And you know,
Speaker 2: one day I'll go to visit you and I'm going
Speaker 2: to do a little bit of a tour. I'm going
Speaker 2: to visit everyone. I want to go to see the
Speaker 2: South Australian butcher so that he can kill me. And
Speaker 2: then after that, I'm going to go to the woods
Speaker 2: and I'm going to see you, and you can do
Speaker 2: the opposite. You can be nice to me. You can
Speaker 2: make me some tea, crumpets or.
Speaker 4: Something, and we can walk my shed the woods.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds amazing. That sounds like a good refresh
Speaker 2: draft being murdered by the butcher guy. I'll keep the
Speaker 2: door open, please do mhm. I love you, Josh. I'll
Speaker 2: talk to you again soon. Thanks kick, I love you,
Speaker 2: love you too. Bye bye.

Speaker 2: sometimes you can't explain it?
Speaker 11: Do you do?
Speaker 2: You do you have a thought process behind this?

Speaker 2: you think other people think is weird?

Speaker 13: a problem being yourself around non artists?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Why have you had a weird life? Is it? What
Speaker 2: is it? Is it a hard life or a weird life?
Speaker 2: Is it like a why weird?

Speaker 1: You use a little.
Speaker 13: Bit of both.
Speaker 9: I don't know.
Speaker 13: My parents are just like very strange people, and so
Speaker 13: my childhood, i've come to realize, is very not normal.
Speaker 2: M How are you When was it like a hippie
Speaker 2: sort of thing? Uh?
Speaker 13: Yeah, no, I I was raised in like a tiny
Speaker 13: cabin that's like half off the grid, like an outhouse,
Speaker 13: like no indoor plumbing, and like we have electricity but
Speaker 13: just barely.
Speaker 2: Well now, when okay, let's say you're at you're at
Speaker 2: a party. You're talking to someone who's not an artist.
Speaker 2: People in the chair saying that's cool, and I agree
Speaker 2: with them, that sounds kind of cool. But it sounded
Speaker 2: cool until the until the outhouse thing. But that's fair. No,
Speaker 2: I'm just kidding. I guess I'm not Lana. Yeah, what
Speaker 2: parts of yourself? I was just talking about this with
Speaker 2: my friend Dan. What parts of yourself do you feel
Speaker 2: like you you you mask off.
Speaker 3: Mask off?
Speaker 13: I think I I'm very quiet around people normally, well,
Speaker 13: like in my head, I'm very loud in talking a lot,
Speaker 13: and like I put on this very heavy filter on
Speaker 13: what I say and like emotions that I show.
Speaker 2: Does that is that exhausting to you? Or can handle it? I?
Speaker 2: You know, Lona, I think, And let me tell you
Speaker 2: I I used to be like that as well. This
Speaker 2: is actually kind of one of my favorite sort of
Speaker 2: subjects to to sort of think about, is the one
Speaker 2: of being yourself. And I find that the more I've
Speaker 2: found through sort of experience and this is you know,
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to lecture you on this ship because
Speaker 2: I'm like also figuring it out myself.
Speaker 11: But like.
Speaker 2: I found, the more I've been true to myself in life,
Speaker 2: I actually get rewarded for it more than I get
Speaker 2: punished for it. And I think that that in general
Speaker 2: is you know, people ultimately, if they follow through with it,
Speaker 2: will get rewarded more for being themselves than they will punished.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you believe me at all, but
Speaker 2: that's this kind of been my personal experience.
Speaker 13: No, I definitely believe you. I think that COVID. That's
Speaker 13: a good thing that's come out of COVID is like
Speaker 13: I'm not around a bunch of people, so I don't
Speaker 13: have the pressure to like not be myself and that's
Speaker 13: been really beneficial.
Speaker 2: Do you feel like when you're alone you learn more
Speaker 2: about who yourself is?
Speaker 13: Definitely?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what have you learned recently?
Speaker 9: Recently?
Speaker 13: I've been going to therapy, so that's been actually like
Speaker 13: super helpful, like over video at and stuff, but just
Speaker 13: just learning like figuring out who I am and like
Speaker 13: how to handle things that have gone wrong.
Speaker 2: What sorts of things I was I like asking people
Speaker 2: this a lot because I'm super curious what sorts of things,
Speaker 2: Like if you've talked about your introversion with have you
Speaker 2: talked about your introversion with your actual therapist?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: What do they have to say about it?
Speaker 13: They just think that I'm socially anxious and that it's
Speaker 13: like something that you kind of have to throw yourself
Speaker 13: into social situations to get yourself out of that anxiety.
Speaker 13: And that's also impossible right now. But this is throwing
Speaker 13: myself into a social situation so.
Speaker 2: Interesting. So they suggest sort of an immersion therapy. The
Speaker 2: only way to get better is the only way to
Speaker 2: go it over it is to go through it kind
Speaker 2: of thing.
Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2: All right, So this is this is you. You consider
Speaker 2: this phone call to be putting yourself out there? M hm,
Speaker 2: how how are you? How are you feeling? How is
Speaker 2: it going so far?
Speaker 13: A little anxious?
Speaker 3: But I'm doing good.
Speaker 2: That's good. No, it's been super easy to talk to you.
Speaker 2: I'm extremely tired, and you've You've been pretty pretty chill,
Speaker 2: pretty pretty nice to talk to.
Speaker 13: I'm glad.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, what's the root of that? Do you?
Speaker 2: I mean, but you don't. But it's not a thinky
Speaker 2: sort of anxiety, is it? Because you don't think? Do
Speaker 2: you think I will think that you're weird? Because I
Speaker 2: don't know if you're watching the stream now, Lana, but
Speaker 2: I'm I look insane right now. I'm gonna jump green
Speaker 2: gecko costume. I painted my face green and I'm currently
Speaker 2: in in a bowl of peanut butter.
Speaker 13: I think that's why I was comfortable with calling is
Speaker 13: because this seems like kind of a haven, a safe haven.
Speaker 2: Good. I'm glad you feel that way because I I
Speaker 2: don't know, you know, I think you know. I don't
Speaker 2: think you should be afraid of people thinking that you're weird.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 2: M What was your reaction when your therapist told you
Speaker 2: that you should just go to more places?
Speaker 13: I I think that sounds awful, But.
Speaker 2: Well, what do you want? Well, what do you want right?
Speaker 2: Because you I mean, do you want to be freed
Speaker 2: of your anxiety?
Speaker 13: It would just be nice to not like be super
Speaker 13: anxious whenever I actually have to talk to someone for
Speaker 13: like work or or something like that.
Speaker 2: I feel that which situations do you have to talk
Speaker 2: to people for work?
Speaker 5: What do you worse?
Speaker 2: If you don't mind me.
Speaker 13: Asking, I'm a freelancer right now, so I'm just yeah, yeah,
Speaker 13: it's mostly like talking to people trying to get the jobs,
Speaker 13: like little contracts and stuff, and it's it's hard to
Speaker 13: try and convince them to give me more money.
Speaker 2: That's very stressful, it is. It is stressful to be
Speaker 2: a freelance. It is stressful to be a freelancer because
Speaker 2: you know, you don't. I know, I'm not to you know,
Speaker 2: assume anything about you, but I would assume that as
Speaker 2: an artist, you're far more interested in creating art than
Speaker 2: you maybe are in being a business person.
Speaker 13: Definitely.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's accurate, but so let's say cool,
Speaker 2: let's say it's twenty twenty too, and coronavirus is, you know,
Speaker 2: still there, but we don't care because we've all learned
Speaker 2: the death that we're all gonna die anyway. So we're
Speaker 2: like whatever, and social gatherings are back on. Are you
Speaker 2: going out to the club?
Speaker 5: Law?
Speaker 13: Probably not the club, probably like a quiet bar or something.
Speaker 2: Do you go on dates?
Speaker 13: Yeah?
Speaker 2: How is that?
Speaker 13: I had tender a few months ago, and just talking
Speaker 13: to people, like random people is so hard. I thankfully
Speaker 13: found someone who I've been seeing for a bit, but
Speaker 13: like before that, just trying to meet new people, I
Speaker 13: just am very quiet. It's hard to talk to them.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I'd say, you know, you're sort of
Speaker 2: just trying to find people who jive with you, and
Speaker 2: it's a long, long, long, treacherous road of like that's
Speaker 2: the one of my eyes I gonna say, trying to
Speaker 2: be okay with just this is this is what I
Speaker 2: have in my head, This is what I always have
Speaker 2: in my head, is like the ideal that I'm striving
Speaker 2: for that's maybe not necessarily you know whether or not
Speaker 2: I do this amazingly one hundred percent. It's sort of
Speaker 2: what I'm striving towards is like the objective of just
Speaker 2: present yourself authentically to the world with zero responding zero
Speaker 2: percent to the influence of other people, whether they're complementing
Speaker 2: you or or the opposite. Just being yourself, purely yourself
Speaker 2: as much as you possibly can, and then accepting the
Speaker 2: results in terms of the people who it attracts and
Speaker 2: the people who it repels, and accepting, Okay, I am
Speaker 2: fully of myself and it inevitably attracts these people, and
Speaker 2: that's the best you know, It inevitably attracts the best
Speaker 2: kind of people because it's the people who are attracted
Speaker 2: to the authentic version of yourself and inevitably repels ever
Speaker 2: everyone else who just doesn't really matter in that equation.
Speaker 2: That's what I want, because that's what I think is
Speaker 2: the perfect way to live. But it's hard. It takes
Speaker 2: a lot of a lot of courage, and some people
Speaker 2: are just born with that courage and some people have
Speaker 2: to kind of cultivate it.
Speaker 13: But yes, I think that that rejection is very scary
Speaker 13: to me.
Speaker 2: I get, I get I look at life is not
Speaker 2: about like me talking about life. But I don't look
Speaker 2: at it as rejection and acceptance. It's there's no rejection.
Speaker 2: I think there's compatibility and incompatibility. And if someone is
Speaker 2: incompatible with you, that you know, there's no put this on.
Speaker 2: Someone's incompatible with you. That doesn't say anything about you
Speaker 2: as a person. Nothing can ever say anything about you
Speaker 2: as a person because there's no objective standards to how
Speaker 2: to be in life. I think, so you're you're merely
Speaker 2: incompatible with that person. I'm sorry if I have no idea.
Speaker 2: If anything I'm saying makes sense right.
Speaker 13: Now, if I'm fucking going on, you're making sense.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say you should try to not look
Speaker 2: at any rejection that you experience in your life as
Speaker 2: a reflection upon who you are as a person and
Speaker 2: more just like, yeah, I'm not compatible with that person,
Speaker 2: I'm not compatible with that job, I'm not compatible with
Speaker 2: that client, I'm not compatible with this. That the third thing.
Speaker 13: That's definitely a more healthy way to look at.
Speaker 2: It, for sure. And like I said, I'm not a
Speaker 2: master of it, but I sort of what I am
Speaker 2: trying to strive to do. Mm hm. So if I
Speaker 2: host a you know, small get together bonfire. Will you come?
Speaker 13: Yeah, definitely, okay, Sick, I'll fly out wherever you are.
Speaker 2: That sounds awesome. I'm excited to see you and I'll
Speaker 2: introduce you to all my friends that a small bonfire
Speaker 2: line up. What thank you? Thank you for calling in,
Speaker 2: and I hope you have a good rest of the evening.
Speaker 13: You're too, Good night line, good night.
Speaker 1: Call from Hey, Spencer Sprocket, Spencer Sprocket.
Speaker 3: Hey, how'd you know that?
Speaker 5: Can you see me? Is this a video call?
Speaker 2: All right? I need you to.
Speaker 10: All right?
Speaker 2: Can you give me five seconds to deal with you?
Speaker 2: Can you need me five seconds?
Speaker 9: You got ten seconds? As many seconds as you need,
Speaker 9: I got it, all right, all right, it's all for you,
Speaker 9: you know. Yeah, all these seconds are just years, bud.
Speaker 2: All right, then, all right, I'm ready to deal with
Speaker 2: with this whatever this.
Speaker 4: Is, okay, Just a couple of questions for you.
Speaker 9: In the last five years, have you ever gone without
Speaker 9: auto insurance? This season?
Speaker 2: Mister gecko, are you I'm trying to sign if I'm
Speaker 2: going to hang up on you or not, because I
Speaker 2: want to, but I'm also I feel like, well, well
Speaker 2: because if I hang up on you, because if I
Speaker 2: hang up on you, there's no arc to that. I
Speaker 2: think that's kind of boring. There's no solution, there's no
Speaker 2: character development there. I know it would be I feel
Speaker 2: like I'd be abandoning this before it's prime. This is
Speaker 2: instinctively really want to do it.
Speaker 5: This is I.
Speaker 9: I completely understand your concerned right now. And who wouldn't
Speaker 9: want to hang up on a voice like this? It
Speaker 9: sounds like I'm trying to sell you something. You're just
Speaker 9: trying to be a get go and I'm trying to
Speaker 9: be funny here. But we'll pull it out.
Speaker 2: It look, I appreciate I appreciate that you're aware of it.
Speaker 9: Being self aware of what you got to do. I'm
Speaker 9: actually a children's entertainer, so knowing when to heckle and
Speaker 9: knowing when to be heckled is kind of yeah. Try
Speaker 9: I try to make them a specialty.
Speaker 2: You're you entertain children.
Speaker 9: I entertain anybody. Yeah, I do kids' birthday parties. I'm
Speaker 9: a circus performer juggler. Today I was busking on the street.
Speaker 5: I was juggling a.
Speaker 9: Chainsaw blade and bouncing on my nose and stuff, and yeah,
Speaker 9: I'm in Portland.
Speaker 4: Oregon.
Speaker 9: So I just do whatever makes people happy.
Speaker 2: What's your sort of like classic trick, What's what's the
Speaker 2: most impressive thing that you can do?
Speaker 9: You won't believe it, but I can do this. I
Speaker 9: can spin a ball on top of a juggling knife
Speaker 9: and balance that knife on my nose while I'm hula
Speaker 9: hooping at the same time. My most notable though, is
Speaker 9: I invented a juggling leaf blower.
Speaker 5: So I have a leaf blower.
Speaker 2: That I did a juggling leaf blower.
Speaker 9: Well, I mean, if you can google search who invented
Speaker 9: the juggling leaf blower, I don't think you're going to
Speaker 9: come up with many results, but soon I would have
Speaker 9: to listen.
Speaker 2: Before knowing who invented What is a juggling.
Speaker 9: Leaf It's invented by myself. It's a leaf blower that
Speaker 9: I juggle, you know, pretty simple as as an entertainer.
Speaker 3: A.
Speaker 2: Juggling leaf blower and just a regular leaf flower that
Speaker 2: is juggled nice.
Speaker 9: It's a battery powered. It's a battery powered leaf flower
Speaker 9: that I've basically attached.
Speaker 5: To stick to.
Speaker 9: And it's not like I invented it, you know. I
Speaker 9: guess inventing is the one word. I'm not going to
Speaker 9: get like a patent for it, but I digress. I
Speaker 9: haven't seen anybody juggle a leaf flower before, and I
Speaker 9: think when most people see me juggling it, it's it's
Speaker 9: pretty entertaining. But you know that Bernoulli's principle when you
Speaker 9: put a ball in a fast moving stream of air.
Speaker 9: The real trick is, after I juggle it, I take
Speaker 9: a ball and it balances in the stream of moving air,
Speaker 9: and then I balance the whole leaf flower on my
Speaker 9: nose and just people go clock clock claque. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 9: best birthday party ever.
Speaker 2: Do the children ever heckle you or throw things at you?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 5: Always?
Speaker 9: Always, I welcome it. Though, I welcome it, so I
Speaker 9: never try to call myself a clown because kids are
Speaker 9: scared of clowns. But oh, that's why I'm so popular
Speaker 9: is whenever kid tries to heckle me, I mean all
Speaker 9: the parents. Let's be real, everybody wants a kid heckler
Speaker 9: to win, right, come on, agree, Oh they're not. But
Speaker 9: I have years and years of experience, and I already
Speaker 9: know when all these jokes are gonna get them. And
Speaker 9: I'm much faster speaking. And if I get a laugh,
Speaker 9: I get to move on. But the trick is you
Speaker 9: can't deny the kid the heckle. You have to laugh
Speaker 9: at the heckle. That takes away all their power. If
Speaker 9: you try to fight the heckle, then you're arguing.
Speaker 5: With a kid. And it's weird and stuff.
Speaker 9: But you know, I was wearing yellow pants one time
Speaker 9: and a kid came up to me and goes, you
Speaker 9: look like a highlighter, and everybody started laughing, and I
Speaker 9: laughed really hard too, and I was like, kid, I'm
Speaker 9: going to steal that joke, just so you know. And
Speaker 9: it got a great laugh and that was it. But
Speaker 9: I didn't try to like shut it down or anything.
Speaker 9: You just got to kind of go with the flow,
Speaker 9: because if kids heckle me, they really just want attention.
Speaker 9: They really just want to be a part of the show.
Speaker 9: And I mean, as a kid, I was the I
Speaker 9: always wanted to be, you know, Spencer. Yeah, kind of
Speaker 9: a unique story. Uh, I know, it's it's a weird
Speaker 9: I'm a weird Uh I'm a weird case here. But
Speaker 9: I just saw you and read it, and I saw
Speaker 9: you scrolling through and I couldn't believe.
Speaker 5: I got through.
Speaker 9: I called sixty four times, according to my caller.
Speaker 2: ID you know what, Spencer Whole, I'm going to give
Speaker 2: you credit here because thank you. I'm going to give
Speaker 2: you credit here because I don't know if you're looking
Speaker 2: at the chat and I you know, look, the chat
Speaker 2: does their own thing.
Speaker 9: Oh no, I can't look at that thing because I'm
Speaker 9: too focused on you right now. I'm not trying to
Speaker 9: look at all.
Speaker 2: You know what, people, I'm not gonna I'm not saying
Speaker 2: people are giving you some ship, but you're being you
Speaker 2: know what.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: I respect does job talking. I respected. I love being
Speaker 2: unapologetically yourself no matter what which. Oh absolutely, look, I
Speaker 2: got to give it to you for that, Spencer.
Speaker 9: But again, I mean the heckler's on the chat. They
Speaker 9: just want to say things that want to get noticed.
Speaker 9: They want to be a part of it. They just
Speaker 9: want my attention, and I love them for that. Hang up,
Speaker 9: hang up, please, they can all do that. It's fine,
Speaker 9: but you all got to be kidding me. Everything I'm
Speaker 9: saying is worse than all the past couple of callers,
Speaker 9: like come on, come on, come on, you can let
Speaker 9: the story develop.
Speaker 5: But but I get it. You got to step up.
Speaker 5: Step back.
Speaker 9: I totally understand, but I don't know if you give
Speaker 9: people what they want.
Speaker 2: Well, Spencer, I would wish you good luck, but I
Speaker 2: don't think you're gonna need it. I think you've I
Speaker 2: think you've got life figured out for yourself.
