First off, I 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:33.240 don't like coming in with a constraint. No one else 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.120 had that kind of qualifier. Four thousand words or less. 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.560 Number two. All right, if I'm gonna be able to 0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:40.880 say something, I should be able to use all the 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:43.400 words I know, and as many of them as I 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:47.119 need be. Okay, that's a fact. Now everyone's talking about 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:49.400 how they're feeling. Let me tell how I'm feeling. I 0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:53.320 feel like shit. I'm sick, all right, I'm sick as hell. 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:57.800 This is the last episode. Alright, I'm disgusted. I got 0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.559 body aches, I got chills, a fever, I gotta running, 0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:05.600 a sore throat, I can't. I haven't pooped in like 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:10.560 two days. What what else? It's coming out the top, 0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:13.320 there's nothing coming out at the bottom. Nothing. It's all steam. 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:17.920 All my urine's coming out of my hand like steam, steaming, 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:19.960 steve steering. I don't know how to pronounce it, but 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:22.720 it's a medical term, and it's just like just releasing 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:24.760 from the top. So that's that's how I'm a feeling. 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:29.800 That's where I meant mentally, physically, spiritually, I am transcendent. 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:32.520 I do think I am part of the three Angels. 0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:38.520 I am a Harold too to God's thrown and uh, 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:43.559 I will see you all in times. Okay, that's good. 0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.680 That means you believe in us, right, Yeah, of course 0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:52.599 that's very cool. There will be there will be a 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:59.159 baptism of fire. Well hold up, Uh, I'll take this 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:02.640 opportunity for all the scene suggestions over these last many 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.040 years from all of our listener emails and our patron 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:08.840 v I P S. We thank you all. James has 0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:12.080 sent a lovely note to all the Patron subscribers letting 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:14.880 them know how much we appreciate their love. Um. He 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:17.040 did a great job with that letter, So thank you 0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:19.760 James and his own his own upcoming project, which I 0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:22.080 thought was really cool. James, Yeah, I thought, yeah, you 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:24.400 want to, you want to. I don't know if it 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:27.200 was a plug as much as it was. He offered 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:33.440 everyone to just move their subscription. Yeah, never stop hustling, 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:44.000 never stop girl, But thank you all. You were ultimately 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:47.160 the reason we kept gathering to do this as much 0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.880 as we love to see each other, we were driven 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:52.280 by the notion that someone was out there listening. So 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:56.400 I didn't. I thought you meant James, and I was like, 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:03.160 we had to keep James by the way. As soon 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:06.479 as I started to talk about possibly giving into the 0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:10.120 notion that this was coming to an end, everyone asks James, 0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:17.400 gonna be okay, there's nothing to stuff that anyway. You 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:20.120 are loved the most. It is clear. It is crystal clear, 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:23.120 and that is my point. But aside from James, yes, 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:25.280 thank you all listeners, and thank you for telling everyone 0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:27.440 you've ever known, and all the great reviews that James 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:30.720 love to read someone and so forth. A big thank 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:35.400 you to you. Our last three scenes were selected by me. 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:39.400 They were, uh, I'm gonna say randomly. I was trying 0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:42.800 to get precious with it, and I thought, thankfully, there 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:46.520 are too many to choose from, so there's no reason 0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:50.680 to be precious. Let's just move forward, shall we. This 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:53.640 first one comes from patron v I p Andy Montoya, 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:58.280 who wrote scene suggestions see no preamble, no life story, 0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:05.480 just scene suggestions. Now I'm gonna start criticizing. I think 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:10.760 that's a compliment when clear and to the points the thing. 0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:16.440 Yeah mm hmm.

But I 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:57.160 think if I could get some gills in there, we 0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:01.080 could make this work. Lungs you're filling with fluid. If 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:02.600 we get the kills there, he can breathe the fluid. 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.560 That's my idea. And I know I don't know if 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:10.440 it's okay. Hey, everybody, Tommy's back from his little hospital visit, 0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:14.000 but he's back in class and wanted to ask him 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:17.240 a few words he was feeling, and um, you know, 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:19.640 you know what what what he's looking forward to for 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:22.040 the rest of the school year, Tommy welcome. Can I 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:27.080 ask Tommy why he looks weird? Um, I'm amphibious? Now, 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:35.120 what what does that mean? Explain? I'm equally comfortable on 0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:38.560 land and in sea. You have a penis and a vagina? 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:42.400 Good what I do? But that I do? But that's 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:46.439 not That's not germane to this conversation. It has nothing 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:49.280 to do with being amphibious. How are you bringing Germaine 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:55.040 into this Germaine sit down? Sit down? You don't want 0:13:55.040 --> 0:14:01.640 to start something with Germaine, Amphibian. This is bullshit, Dennis. 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.160 I just feel like, let's just swap for a while. 0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:07.800 I've been working with my client for so long and 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:10.800 I feel like I could do something special with from 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:19.000 from from with with with Denise. Sorry, I'm just so excited. 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:22.680 I'm so excited. I don't know if I'm terribly sorry 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:25.880 to interrupt. I need to rescind that Scrod I haven't 0:14:25.920 --> 0:14:28.600 even had a bite of it yet. Good, good, good. 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:32.840 I can replace it with any other fish, literally, any 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:40.920 any other fish, all right, starfish. I don't know if 0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:42.800 it's actually a fish. I think that's more of a 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:49.760 colloquialism most of the scientific. Yeah, the one with the 0:14:49.840 --> 0:14:51.640 five points that looks like a star. I'll take that, 0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:57.000 thank you. Now. I don't pretty well. It takes a 0:14:57.040 --> 0:14:59.240 lot of cuts. I would never I would have never 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:02.840 what part of that was gutsie? Do you? I don't. 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:04.480 I think he's right. It might not be a fish, 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:07.560 but I think he got him on a technicality. Jerry, Jerry, 0:15:07.560 --> 0:15:09.640 how are we gonna work together? So you gotta use 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.760 my prize starfish? And that's what we're doing, my prize 0:15:12.800 --> 0:15:14.960 pet starfish. How am I supposed to go that? I 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:19.320 can't serve starfish? I got you. I got your scrad Todd, 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:24.880 I got your scrawd Todd. Any fish, any fish? Why 0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:26.800 don't you see the fish that we have? I don't 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:28.920 know what's the first thing he came out of my mouth? Okay, 0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:35.480 but yeah, he wants a starfish. Uh, he wants abraised 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:41.520 abraise starfish. Okay, you're not gonna serve me. Are you sorry? 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:45.680 So that's okay? I love you. I love you too. 0:15:45.800 --> 0:15:49.520 Sist seriously, Dot Jerry, what I'm saying? Where do they go? 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:54.280 Where do they they? Probably one went to the bathroom 0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:56.320 and thought, as will make use of time both one 0:15:56.320 --> 0:16:12.120 at the same time. Yeah, I mean it would make sense. 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:13.680 You don't want to sit by yourself at a table 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:19.400 that makes sense? Oh? Here it comes here it lightly 0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:23.520 braised starfish with star fruit. Thank you? Can I get 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:24.920 to ranch on the side. Don't want to dip it 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:28.960 and suck on the I'm sorry. The chef is kind 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.920 of a stickler for you know.
