And we all sort of giggled a 13 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 3: little bit. And then I hear you say it, and 14 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 3: it's the first time I'm hearing any member of the 15 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,879 Speaker 3: press say it into a microphone.

It's always the way, 25 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 3: isn't it. 26 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 2: It's mind boggling. 27 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,839 Speaker 3: She came through the airport and not under the fence. 28 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 3: That's true. That's true. And three of her children. I 29 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 3: think Baron was in the overhead overhead. Well, this is 30 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 3: what happens if you marry Trump. Trump is the only 31 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 3: man whose mother refused to breastfeed him because he made 32 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 3: too much eye contact.

Sure, here you 47 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 2: have thoughts on golf and straight men. 48 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 3: Well, I just think golf is a perfect metaphor for 49 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,119 Speaker 3: the straight man's idea of sex, and that is, get 50 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 3: everything in the hole with as little effort as possible. 51 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 3: But it never works out that way. No, you're always 52 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 3: putting in a bunker somewhere, as I learned. 53 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: From the. 54 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 3: From the expression, as you can tell, she's not a 55 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 3: sports more rhythmic gymnastics more than anything.

And so you're across the news a lot. 61 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 3: You're a news junkie. I am a news junkie. I 62 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 3: assume a lot of news, and then when it all 63 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 3: gets too much, I have to turn on some Heart, 64 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 3: some proper music, some ac DC, some dude looks like 65 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 3: a lady Aerosmith, Heart alone one of the great What 66 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: about the BARRACOUTERA great?
