Yeah, and let's be honest, 759 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 2: I have to I have to hope within the context 760 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 2: of me speaking on the podcast, there was a little 761 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 2: bit more than me, just you know. Number one don't. 762 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 4: Say is like so again. This comes with the thirty 763 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 4: one second mark of this clip. There's a full podcast 764 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 4: outside of it, but it has been clipped for social media, 765 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 4: which at seven. 766 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 2: Years ago, I think happened. 767 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 4: At seven years ago is a pretty forward thinking thing 768 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 4: to Darry. 769 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 2: I mean, good grief. Okay. Number two, just keep doing 770 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 2: everything you can outside of that job to make yourself 771 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 2: visible on some level. 772 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: I wanted to make sure I was quoting you precisely. 773 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 2: Number three, know that it will not last forever. Yeah. Interesting, 774 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 2: that's a nice piece of advice actually, because when I 775 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 2: was in it, it was like, well, I guess I'll 776 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 2: die doing this. 777 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 4: It seems all consuming it. Well hold that thought because 778 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 4: it comes that comes back later. 779 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 2: Okay, number four, at some point this is going to 780 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 2: be over with.

But because of the MLA format that 784 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 3: I guess Canvapro is stuck in, it would not allow 785 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 3: me to do that in the same font, and for me, 786 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 3: the aesthetic was improved. 787 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: Of course, this is a gorgeous piece of art. 788 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 3: Thank you for saying that. 789 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 2: Okay, so number five, you'll either die or number six 790 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 2: or find a way out, and both will be a 791 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 2: better thing than what you're doing. 792 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 4: Yes, And I was actually hoping for a little bit 793 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 4: more explanation on that. 794 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 2: So at the what I'm telling people is dying is 795 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 2: better than what you're doing, sure or or finding your 796 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 2: way out. Yes, So I guess me and I can 797 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 2: kind of support my mental state. At the time, dying 798 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 2: did seem like a bet and options at least a freedom. 799 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 2: Sure Number seven just let just okay, So this is 800 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 2: again verbatim, This is I just again. 801 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 3: I really wanted to make sure I didn't want to 802 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 3: deviate at all.
