Good place to be, yeah, 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:27.479 a good place to be. We're not in Los Angeles 0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:33.200 right now, Thortfully. Our house is okay, and we're just 0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:37.360 up here sitting it out because we got a little 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:38.680 guy with sensitive lungs. 0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:42.040 Well, I can understand why because the air here is 0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:45.679 not good. Thank you to everybody. The wildfires were as 0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:50.800 bad as they look. They decimated several huge parts of 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:55.600 the city, and I personally have at least six friends 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:58.960 that lost their homes and everything in Alta, Dina and 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:01.639 the I have friends the Palisades, so I haven't heard from. 0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:05.880 I know they're alive, so but they are They lost 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:09.920 everything too, So it really was awful. It was terrible 0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:12.280 and bizarre and scary. 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:16.520 I saw something about whenever people ask about things that 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:20.240 happened in California, you know, if there's an earthquake or something, 0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:22.600 if there's a mud slide, people always reach out to 0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:25.040 like are you okay, And it's always not as bad 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:28.360 as it seems on the news. And this was a 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:30.440 tweet from somebody I think it was maybe Adam McKay 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:34.880 who then said, but this time it was way worse 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:36.079 than people understood. 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.960 I agree it was insane. I agree that was crazy, 0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:42.680 but you and I both had to evacuate. We got 0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:45.080 all we got all our people pets out of there, 0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:49.640 and it was thankfully you and I dodged. It was 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:53.399 just luck of the draw that our houses didn't burn down. 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:58.640 I was explaining it to friends that the way the 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.119 fires were popping up when the was at its strongest, 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:02.000 like we're talking like. 0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:05.520 Eighty miles an hour, like trees are bending over. 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:10.720 It was when I go to a bar. Some places 0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:12.600 call them a pub, some call them a tavern, a 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:16.880 social house. I if I'm playing darts, I can guarantee 0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:17.240 you can. 0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.720 Call them tips. Some call them little missiles. 0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:26.240 Yeah, danger badminton, danger birdies as some people call them 0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:29.360 danger birdies. But the point is I know I'm going 0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:32.840 to hit that dart board every single time, doesn't matter 0:03:32.880 --> 0:03:33.639 how drunk I am. 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:34.200 Wow. 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:37.400 What I don't know is where that dart is going. Yeah, 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:39.400 no idea if it's going to hit a one or 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.280 a twenty or an eleven or a bull's eye. I 0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:45.040 do not. And that's what the fire map felt like. 0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:47.760 When we were auch on. We got to give it up. Also, 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:50.960 I mean, has any app ever stepped up harder than 0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:53.600 maybe Zoom during the pandemic. 0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:56.840 Watch them, Watch Duty, Watch Duty. It was six thirty 0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:00.640 of the morning on Tuesday, and it was like Watch 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:03.800 Duty was the or no Wednesday. I guess we left 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.200 on Wednesday. Yeah, but like six thirty in the morning, 0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.520 Laurd's talking about watching it. I'm like, I've never heard, 0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:11.560 what are you talking about. It's six thirty the morning. 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:13.920 You're giving me a new app to deal with right away? 0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:17.120 Oh exactly, and also great app. I think it's a 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:21.560 nonprofit and it saved so many lives. It's an incredible app. 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:26.359 And also thanks to the dozens of friends and family 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:29.760 who don't live in California who also discovered the Watch 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:32.080 Study app, who not only told me about it, but 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:36.599 we're also sending me updates from so far away to 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:40.279 make sure I was safe. So many ban animals reach 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:42.080 out from around the world ask if Kurt and I 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:45.599 were okay. We, like I said, we both evacuated. We're 0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:49.159 lucky our homes are not destroyed. Everybody, there's been a 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:52.520 huge outporting of support, which is lovely because you can 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:56.200 either stay heartbroken and feel terrible, or you can feel 0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:58.880 excited to contribute and do something in your own way 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.159 and to support. If you can't support Elie wildfires, you 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.719 could do something in your own community, town, or house, 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:08.039 and so turn your frown's upside down and get it 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.320 excited about how you can participate and make things better. 0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:15.760 The people out here I try to volunteer two places, 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:18.880 and they were like, we're good on volunteers at the moment, 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:21.560 and we don't. We're not accepting any other donations because 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:27.800 we're overwhelmed with clothing, groceries, water. It's pretty amazing that 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:31.960 in this hellscape that happened so quickly, how fast, so 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.159 many people stepped up to do the right thing. 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:36.600 It was really amazing. And you know what I was 0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.120 thinking about that, I think the sweet spot is going 0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:42.760 to be in two weeks because after like people start 0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:45.719 getting back to normal life, then there all of a sudden, 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:49.119 they're working again. You know. Like that's when I think 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.440 that I'm going to go and volunteer as soon as 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:54.000 I get yeah, because. 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:55.320 They'll be happy to do it. I'm going to go 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:58.920 do some clean up. Oh my gosh, I yes. But anyways, 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.279 thank you to everybody who support and also Kurtibe and 0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:03.599 I did a go fundme. We're gonna leave it up 0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:08.360 till the end of January. It's a bad hand bananas 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.119 and basically donate whatever you want. Or you can draw 0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:14.320 a banana with your non dominant hand and you get 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:16.280 your friends to give you three dollars to show it 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:18.119 to them and then throw it in there. We're already 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:21.320 up to forty two hundred dollars. It all it's for 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:26.000 it all goes directly to victims and firefighters, and it's 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.400 it's a big deal. All that money. People are gonna 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:30.720 need money in a big way because they lost it all. 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:34.800 They lost everything, I really did. One of my children's 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:38.839 teachers lost her home and so like that's gonna be, 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:41.640 you know, an entire thing for the whole rest of 0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:44.040 the year. You know, we don't a lot of money 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.000 so that she can hopefully get some sort of transitional 0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:51.000 housing going. But her you know, her husband has Parkinson's 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:53.640 and it's just you know, she's an older woman to 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.360 be teaching for thirty five years. I mean, these stories 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.520 are like over and over and over and over and again. 0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:00.000 So if you can go. A lot of people are 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:04.679 hosting gofundmes that have not been met yet, especially Megan 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:07.640 Gaily and Chris Garcia. They're both featuring people that they 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:12.240 know specifically in Alta Dina. Check out their Instagram accounts, 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.080 and it's really helpful if you want to just go 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:15.080 do something right now. 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:18.200 That is such a good point. And even if you 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:20.280 don't know what to do in your town. We have 0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:23.160 a Bananimals group for the American Red Cross for blood 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:27.840 drives or plately drives. It's pretty incredible. We are currently 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:31.400 ranked three hundred and twenty eighth in the United States. 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:35.520 We are above Creighton University. We're above JP Morgan Chase. 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:37.720 That's not surprising, that's surprising. 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:39.360 That's of course we are. 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:42.480 This one might blow your socks off, Kurt. We are 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:47.720 ranked higher than Hubbs corn Maze, so the good people, 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:50.520 but hubs are getting hubs corn Maze. I don't know 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:54.880 what that is, but we are behind Emory University. So 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.480 please sign up on the app for Bananimals and donate 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.080 blood in the next three weeks and will consider it 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:02.720 a win for LA wildfires. 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:05.280 I've always been thinking, is there a way to gamify 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:09.080 blood donation? And thank god the American Red Cross figured 0:08:09.120 --> 0:08:12.400 it out. Yes they did, putting people in competition to 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:14.240 see who could donate the more blood. 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:17.239 Kurt. We're three hundred and twenty eighth out of sixty 0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:18.600 nine thousand teams. 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:20.440 My god, that's amazing. 0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:24.800 So we are called the Banannimals.

A snowploufs 0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:30.120 Low Lower and Gritters managed to get through the six 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:34.360 foot drifts blocking the tan Hill in in the Yorkshire Dales, 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:38.960 so the twenty three pubgoers, including a four year old 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:43.800 child and six workers could get home fun. The pub 0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:47.680 manager told the BBC. More staff was also finally able 0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:51.120 to get to the pub to take over there is. 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:53.640 She said, I went to work on New Year's Eve 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:57.000 and only got back yesterday. That was on the seventh 0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:59.400 I think speaking about spending so long cooped up with 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:02.120 twenty three St Hay said, everyone was amazing. No one 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:05.320 was annoying. That's a lie. That four year old was 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:09.920 definitely a four year old that can't go outside for 0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:13.600 five days. Yeah, no, unbearable. She also said few of 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:17.679 the staff missed some major milestones while they were locked in. Okay, 0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:20.400 one mister daughter's eighteenth birthday. Another missed the birth of 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:23.360 her granddaughter who she's that's huge since met for the 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:26.520 first time. There was also two Australian guests in the group. Also, 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:30.560 of course they are not aware that on New Year's 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:36.400 Eve two years ago, this exact same thing happened. Is 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:38.680 no one aware of that they bring a four year. 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:41.199 Old to this, that they're just like the four year old. Yes, 0:12:41.320 --> 0:12:43.559 because I would go intentionally to get snowed in. I 0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:45.920 want to go Tanhill and get snowed in for a 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:48.400 week and eat pub food. And I don't know what 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:50.080 they play up there. I don't know what they play 0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:52.600 in Northern England. They should start doing mandolins. 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:55.559 They should just start saying like, come here, you're we 0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:57.880 do a lock in. We do a snow in lock 0:12:57.960 --> 0:13:00.960 in for five loves. Every I would go. That would 0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:06.760 be such a blast. And then they interview this member 0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:12.360 of staff, Ellie Applegarth, who was not even there for 0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:16.360 the for the She was not even there for the 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:18.880 actual lock in. She just arrived to like take over 0:13:19.480 --> 0:13:21.240 and they just interviewed her and I was like, why 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:23.680 is this person being interviewed like she wasn't even part 0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:26.320 of the thing. And then they the only photo, the 0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:29.320 only photo they have of this entire thing is of 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:35.360 Ellie Applegarth. And Ellie Applegarth is a supermodel. Ellie guard 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:40.040 is the Applegarth, the most beautiful person I've ever seen 0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:41.520 in my entire life. 0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:47.440 I'm looking her up on my phone, Ellie Applegarth. 0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:50.000 And I was, there's a photo of her, and it's 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:52.920 the only photo for the entire The BBC put this 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:57.360 up because Ellie Applegarth should be in con. 0:13:57.400 --> 0:13:59.880 I don't know where supermodels go. Where does super models go? 0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:07.240 Monica, I Milan, Milan, Paris, Milan, Los Angeles, California. 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:11.160 The runways of Milan to the Tannhill in the place 0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:14.520 that doesn't seem to be able to not let people leave. 0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:19.360 That is so funny. But also yes, I mean, well, 0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:21.840 who knows, Maybe a child comes out of this, Maybe 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:25.720 a Tanner Tanner Hill Johnson comes out of the speaking 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:27.480 which I have a friend named Rebecca Johnson who lives 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:30.720 up that way. Rebecca report in from Tannhill. 0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:34.200 In I guess, and I know Rebecca Johnson as well. Yeah, 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:36.120 from the onlines. 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:39.720 From the onlines, So one dream come true. Yes, I 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:42.640 would intentionally try to get locked in there also, like 0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:47.240 at our age. So I'm on day nine or ten 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:50.160 of my dry sixty nine, going right, great. I timed 0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:52.080 it a little different this year. Mine's going to end 0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:53.240 on Saint Patrick's Down. 0:14:53.280 --> 0:14:57.120 Oh that's exciting. I'm also in the I have been 0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:04.320 trying to start mine, but right after New Year's I 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:07.280 stopped at New Year's and then two days later we 0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:11.680 had to fly to to say go bye to a 0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:15.800 relative who was dying, and it was a very difficult 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:18.600 situation that I'm not at liberty to give details about. 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:22.000 And I was just like, oh, we're drinking now. And 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:24.640 then we got back and it was two days later 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:27.600 and then I stopped drinking, and then two days later 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:32.320 it started again. Oh yeah, the fire started and I 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:34.640 was like, oh am, I locked in a hotel now 0:15:34.720 --> 0:15:36.360 with two children, I'm gonna drink. 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:38.680 Yeah, you're fine. You could start it whenever you want 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:44.120 to consecutive days take a staycation. These are hand of God. 0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:46.920 Hand of job has come down and flicked us. 0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:51.560 I was feeling really guilty about it, especially today, of 0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:53.840 just like not being back or anything. And it's just 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:57.840 because of the little ones, you know, But that like that, 0:15:58.000 --> 0:15:59.840 I don't know that guilt of like I should just 0:15:59.840 --> 0:16:02.520 be back at work, I should be getting getting in 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:05.480 the grind again, you know, And it just like it 0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:08.120 feels like it's we're still in the middle of it, 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:12.160 of it of a traumatic experience. Like the fires are out, 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:14.000 they're not even out. They're still burning. 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:16.960 That's the craziest part, buddy. Everybody I talked to that 0:16:17.000 --> 0:16:21.000 lost their house was laughing and jovial and isn't this crazy? 0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:25.560 And they are in shock. Yeah, they don't realize it's 0:16:25.600 --> 0:16:29.360 just could be. I mean, I mentally prepared to go, 0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:30.960 what do I do if this happened? If if I 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:36.800 lose my house? I'm like, well, okay, so everybody's a jock, 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:39.080 but let's bring it back to old tan Hill. 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:40.120 Yeah. 0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:44.560 I do. The staff I feel the worst for because 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:48.400 those people, you know, people that work in movie theaters 0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:50.560 don't love the smell of popcorn. It's like if you 0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:54.800 work at that place and you're like, let's let's punch out. 0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:58.840 I already ran the glassware, and then you realize that 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:01.400 you're going to have to work the kitchens and pour 0:17:01.480 --> 0:17:04.720 the beers for another six days without. 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:09.080 Without stop, without a break, working essentially sixteen hours a day. 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:12.120 As somebody who's bartended, I would have ended up being 0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:14.840 an American who wants to talk too much. Generally, I 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.639 would have been like, can I bartend tomorrow? Can tomorrow 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:20.359 be Scotty Bartend's day. I'll do a great job, And 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:23.120 I would again I would like this too much. I'm built. 0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:28.800 This is like, I'm so envious of these people. It 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:31.040 just seems like such a fun adventure. 0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:32.840 Have you ever been snowed in anywhere? 0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:35.360 Sure, a lot of places, I'm sure. On the pot 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:38.800 I talked about it once, but on a youth group trip, 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:43.080 we got snowed in in the nineties at the ski resort, 0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:45.800 and all our parents just Western Union money or called 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:48.000 the hotel and put their credit cards on file. It 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:50.600 was supposed to be two nights, three days of skiing, yeah, 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:52.679 and I think it ended up being like five nights, 0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:57.600 six days, and it was. It was like little club med. 0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:01.560 I was like, I knew two people, and my two 0:18:01.640 --> 0:18:04.960 roommates were guys from my school. Actually, my buddy Jason 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:07.200 lived on my street. And then I didn't know really 0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:08.679 anybody else that well. And by the end I had 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:11.080 all these new friends. We were all skiing and snowboarding 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:12.959 and powder which none of us had ever done. But 0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:14.800 then because our parents were all nice enough to put 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.760 their credit cards on fire, we're getting like pizza, room 0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:22.919 service and just hot chocolates flowing like wine. It was. 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:26.119 They had an arcade there so you could and they 0:18:26.119 --> 0:18:28.760 had pull tables and air hockey and all the fun stuff. 0:18:29.000 --> 0:18:31.720 So we're just like hanging out in the arcade like 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:34.800 it's our bar because we're all twelve years old. Thirteen 0:18:34.880 --> 0:18:40.040 years old. It was fabulous. It was a drink because 0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:41.760 they tried to get us out of there. The only 0:18:41.880 --> 0:18:44.480 I guess thrilling part is they were like, okay, guys, 0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:47.320 it stopped snowing, and then the coach bus couldn't make 0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:50.160 it up the hill, so they actually had to stop 0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:52.080 and wait until the snow and the ice melted off 0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:54.480 the road. Because they tried, we drove up and then 0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:56.800 one hundred and however, me people fit on a bus 0:18:56.880 --> 0:18:59.080 drifted all the way back down, and they tried one 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:02.280 more time and they're like, Nope, that's that's quite enough. 0:19:02.520 --> 0:19:08.439 Terrifying. Oh, that's so scary to be in a in 0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:10.719 a situation where you're not driving and it's a large 0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:12.600 vehicle that just could like tip over. 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:19.320 Yeah, it was a very exciting weekend, but not as 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:21.800 an adult. I'm trying to think I've been stuck. Besides, 0:19:21.840 --> 0:19:24.600 you know, the COVID nineteen virus that locked us all 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:28.520 in pretty good, but this, Yeah, no, I mean we're 0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:30.320 a little locked in right now. We're not supposed to 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:30.720 go outside. 0:19:30.760 --> 0:19:33.080 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I feel that way 0:19:33.119 --> 0:19:35.560 as well. I remember once it was college. It was 0:19:35.560 --> 0:19:39.560 a second year. I was in Baltimore, and I did 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:41.879 not expect a snowstorm in Baltimore. But this was like 0:19:42.040 --> 0:19:44.200 one of the worst snowstorms in Baltimore in like twenty 0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:44.760 five years. 0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:45.680 That's the same one. 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:46.880 Yeah, okay, that's the same one. 0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:49.000 So it was like, yeah, we're six years apart or whatever. 0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:51.640 Yeah, So it was like so it was like six 0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:55.000 feet of snow, and I had decided that I came 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:57.800 back after like the day after Christmas, because I was like, 0:19:57.800 --> 0:20:00.480 oh no, Mom, I'm not staying with you. I'm getting 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.320 back to my friends. And we were staying in the 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:06.040 dorms and the dorms were like eight stories or something, 0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:09.439 and it was empty. It was like because it was 0:20:09.440 --> 0:20:11.960 the day. It was like the December twenty sixth, do 0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:13.160 you know what I mean? So it was like twenty 0:20:13.200 --> 0:20:16.560 sixth through the first or second, and it was the 0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:19.879 four of my four roommates and UH and me and 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:21.840 I had gotten weed in Jersey and I'd like brought 0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:24.119 it back up and we were just gonna like and 0:20:24.160 --> 0:20:25.960 then it snowed and snowed six feet, so we're just 0:20:26.000 --> 0:20:29.000 like stuck. Couldn't go outside smoking weed all the time. 0:20:29.800 --> 0:20:32.320 And but there was a like skeleton staff that ran 0:20:32.480 --> 0:20:37.399 the the the cafeteria on the dining hall, so he 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:41.600 would schedule art. It became so crazy. We would wake 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:46.520 up around six pm and go have dinner for breakfast, 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:52.879 and then stay up all night long smoking weed and 0:20:52.920 --> 0:20:55.679 listening to music, and then go to bed as the 0:20:55.720 --> 0:20:59.280 sun rose and have breakfast for dinner and then go 0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:01.520 to bed. And we did that for four day straight 0:21:01.560 --> 0:21:04.360 until I finally dug my car out using a trash can, 0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:06.639 like one of those like bathroom trash cans, you know, 0:21:06.920 --> 0:21:10.760
