Full show transcript:
Hey. I know you don't follow Kim Kardashian news. Nope. I don't. But I'm here to tell you, she's got a new shapewear.
For men? For your face. Face shapewear. Alright. Hold on.
Hold on. Hold on. Alright. Because, normally, shapewear let's talk about, like, Spanx, right, which is a brand name Yeah. Of shapewear that basically constricts all your stuff under your clothes.
Yeah. So what's face shape wear? Face shape is seamless sculpt face wrap. It's $48. There's two colors, clay or cocoa.
And it's like a it's a compression garment that's worn it's like a per compression garment that's worn after plastic surgery. Oh, I know all about this. It has Velcro closures at the top of the head and the back of the neck with openings for the ears. It offers I see it. Ultra soft jaw support and strong compression with collagen infused material.
What are we doing? It's a must have addition to your nightly routine. And I'll tell you why it's not. I don't know understand what it does. Age gracefully, people.
Like, please stop with the the shots and the stuff. Right? Can we just can we just age like the old days? Yeah. I'm just I'm just aging.
I'm just doing it. Me too. I'm not spending $48 on this chin wrap. It looks like it's gonna choke you out. Yeah.
It will. And I don't think it's doing much of anything, to be honest. If I'm being real, it's not gonna do much at all. I mean, look. It it feels like it's sort of anti gravity.
So because the way I mean, think about, like, I had a toothache back in the day. Yeah. And you would take a thing, and you'd wrap it up and tie it in a bow to hold the ice in place. So it's like that, but then it also chokes around your neck. Agreed.
Look around the neck. That thing is very tight. I just went to the Instagram post where it's posted. So the the bodysuits that she makes, the shapewear that she makes is called SKIMS. SKIMS.
So it was because it's got a name in it. It said the innovation never ends. Yeah. Okay. It should.
Skims. Look. I just feel like we're making up problems for people. Like, what what are we doing? Like, that's really that's my thing is, like, why are we setting these crazy beauty standards?
Like, this isn't helping. Yeah. Right? Like Yeah. Like, all you're doing is making $50 a pop to sell somebody something that I don't feel like they need.
Guess what? You're never gonna fight gravity. You're never going to. Aging is gonna happen. Also, maybe just get one of those wraps that you wrap with Ace bandage?
Yeah. Just get one of those. It'll do the same thing. Will do the same thing. Already have one, so it's for free.
You're welcome. Alright. Let's start the show. How about Yeah. I didn't mean to be grouchy about it.
I just I wanna see people like, you and I, were sitting, at a little coffee shop y thing in Salmon, over the weekend, and there were, there was a group of people that came in. And there were a couple of ladies who had gray hair. They weren't wearing makeup. Like, they were just living life naturally, naturally, and they had a glow. So happy.
Did they? Look great. They did look great. And they got it. They're they're not coloring their hair.
They're not buying into the beauty product thing. They're just living life, and I feel like that's the thing. Everybody's overcomplicated stuff. Yeah. And I'm also gonna tell you straight up, there's not one dude who has ever seen a lady with a big lip filler or all of this extra work and been like, I like that.
No. It's not a thing. So, honestly, like, if you're doing it because, like, no. It's a beauty standard. Like, you're doing it because other women are cutting you down.
Like, let's get into it. Let's dive into it. No. Let's have time. I know.
But my point is you're you're the reason you think you're doing it is to get approval from people that you shouldn't care what they think anyway. Just do you. That's what I'm saying. Just do you. Age gracefully.
You do you, and be happy about yourself. You know? And don't give Kim Kardashian any more money. Yeah. Do not give her money Or try.
For a head wrap that's also gonna choke you out. Exactly. Alright. Now we can start the show. Oh, hot button.
Oh, you're fine. Just take care of yourself. You know? That's all. Accept yourself.
Meet yourself where you're at. Some good advice this morning or afternoon or evening or whenever you're listening to the podcast. Here's today's show. My shirt is tight. Hey.
Yeah. You're having a morning. I know. I I'm uncomfortable because my shirt is tight, shrunk, or something. What shirt is it?
My element shirt. It's a nice shirt, but it's tight. I don't like it. So it's not contributing to my morning? No.
You've No. Came in all grumpy. I know. I had to drive with other people. Very unpleasant experience.
Sorry about that. I like it when people just get out of the way. I like that too. But that was not the thing this morning, and I hit way too many red lights. And I don't like it when the lights change.
Like, I'm driving along, and I'm trying to go straight down a road. Mhmm. And, and then somebody from a side street pulls up to turn right Yeah. And the light changes. Like, stop it.
That person's gonna sit there for half a second and then turn right. Yeah. That has to be resolved. That light doesn't know that person's turning right. What the lights can do from my understanding, which this is old technology.
I'm telling you this technology that I'm talking about, I learned about in in 2004 and 02/2005. This is fifteen year old, at least, technology that has sort of these heat maps where the the cameras or whatever on the on the light or on the, you know, the traffic signals. They agreed the road, and they look for, like, a heat signature of a car. And if a car is present in a lane or a motorcycle is present in a lane, it it starts the timer to change that light. K.
So if it sees someone in the left turn lane or the go straight lane, it should start the timer. If it's someone in the right turn or straight lane, it should wait to start the timer till there are two cars. Well, Josh, one question I have for you. Mhmm. How do you know about that technology?
I there was a guy who, so I was doing an oldies radio show. I was doing mid days on an oldies radio station Mhmm. In 02/2004. Mhmm. 02/2005.
And, there was a guy who worked for, this was in Pocatello. He worked for the transportation department there. And, he took me on a tour of their camera system and told me all about it. So I got to see how it all functioned, and it was very cool. And I'm saying again, this was fifteen years ago, and it was probably old technology then.
So there's probably really nice new stuff that can manage this in a much better way. But don't make me stop, and don't stop the whole flow of traffic for one For one person turning right. Turning right onto the onto the road that's moving. I know. That has to be fixed.
That happens so often on my drive in in the morning. It's infuriating. You're a little this morning. I know. I know.
Cheer up, Charlie Brown. Shirt is tight. I've heard. Let's, let's get some pep in your step this morning. Cranky about driving and, and, and, the light situation, and my shirt is tight.
This is really all that's going on. Yeah. It's we'll get through it. It's a big deal to me, I guess. I don't know.
Just turn it turn your frown upside down. Alright. No worries. Smile. Smile.
Smile. Oh, it's helping already. When was the last time you called me honey? Not in a Honey. Sarcastic way.
I don't. Never. Honey. I know we always do that. Hey, honey.
Honey. I don't know. I I have not. I that's not one of the terms of endearment that, that are in in our relationship. No.
What about babe? Babe babe comes up, but we but we spell it b e b b. Bib. Beb. Hey, babe.
Hey, babe. Hey, babe. Hey, babe. You want some chips and salsa, babe? Yes.
Yes. I do. Because everything's a joke. What about sweetheart? That one we never say that one.
No. That one feels like I've heard that from, from some older folks. Yeah. That's where I've heard that one. Oh, hey, sweetheart.
Hey. Thanks, sweetheart. You you've never ever ever called me, and I'm not complaining because this that would be so weird. Pumpkin. Hey, pumpkin.
Or angel or sugar. Nope. Or These these feel a little bit old. You call it deer. You call me that one sometimes.
Hey, dear. You say that one. Do I? Yeah. And it's not you don't say it regularly or anything.
I must accidentally say it because I don't, I don't actively say, hey, dear. Could you could you hand me a tortilla, dear? Why are you talking to me? Trying to figure out. Well, because we're usually together, like, in the kitchen cooking, making food, something.
Okay. Darling? You the only time I call you Darling is when I'm quoting that Led Zeppelin song. I know. But it had that hasn't happened in a long time.
Darling. And I liked it when you sing that. That was Right. Awesome. I liked it.
You never do that. I mean Oh, man. Write it down. Write what down? Listen to that darling song.
Oh, darling. Darling. Darling. Yeah. You know the one.
I do. I almost forgot it. Oh, come on. Stop. I almost forgot it.
It's been forever. The reason I bring this up is because Honey used to be the number one pet name that people were using. Okay. And it fell to the second spot, and people are now using Babe. Babe is the number one Babe.
Pet name. Babe. What do you say? What do you think, babe? I don't know why it's like Sylvester Stallone.
Babe. This is what comes to mind. Babe. Bet. Babe.
I've seen there's a a couple of TikTok videos where little kids are calling their dads or their moms babe because they hear their parents do it so often. That's funny. Hey, babe. Yeah. Instead of mom.
Instead of mom. That's funny. I like that. Yeah. I mean, that's probably the most common one.
Hey, babe. Babe? Yeah. And it's always that. Yeah.
It sounds just like that. It sounds like downstairs, and I'll be at the top of the stairs. And I'll go, hey, babe. Hey, babe. Do I respond?
Not usually. So then I go, Chantel. No. No. You never call me by my first name.
That's weird. I know. I did the other day, and you said it sounded weird. It sounded really weird. You said my name weird.
Like, I don't know what that means. Call me that. He never called me by my name. Chantel. Like, that's strange.
Quit saying it like that. Like, okay. It's rare that I call you no. It's not that rare. I was gonna say it's rare that I call you just Josh.
It's usually Joshy. Right. But Alright, babe. Hey, babe. Honey.
Yeah. I remember, and and a lot of people I hear will shorten honey just to hun. Hey, hun. Hun? Yeah.
I don't think I've ever said hun. No. I don't think that's ever come out of my mouth. Right. My mom used to call people hun.
Just everyone. Thanks, hun. And a lot of cis. I hear a lot of cis from your family. Yeah.
The like, your your your sister says it, your mom says it, you say it. Not as much. You don't say it as much. Mhmm. But your your family's a big cis family.
Yeah. Like, come here, sis. And it's like, that's that's a different person. That's not that person's name. Okay.
That's it. Took me a minute to get used to that. Why are they calling everybody that? Not everybody. Just No.
Just the little like, the little kids. Yeah. Little girls or whatever. Yeah. And I go, They're not talking to you, so I know.
Disregard. But I I gotta figure out who they're talking to. Why? I know it's not me. It's not it's not your business.
Here, bro. Bro and sis. Hey, bro. Bruh is one that gets used a lot. Bruh?
Yeah. Hey, bruh. From me? No. To you?
No. Oh. Just in general? Between partners? Sure.
Sup, bruh? B r u h, bruh. I always call you my guy, and you don't like that. I don't. It's too casual.
I don't like it. I know. I feel like it's way, way, way, like, dismissive and passive of a relationship thing. Like, it's somebody who if you were working, at a at a cash register Uh-huh. At at some sort of teller, and somebody came up and they did their whole order and they forgot a bag, and you go, oh, you you missed one, my guy.
That's how it feels. Like, it's that kind of acquaint not even acquaintance relationship. It is a passive pass hey, it's gonna be, twelve sixty two, my guy. Like, it's transactional. I don't like it.
So when you're like, oh, it's good dinner, my guy. I don't stop. Ever said it like that. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Babe. So let me tell you about mama Kim. Okay. Mama Kim, runs a restaurant in Austin, Texas that is called Korea House.
And it's a very beloved restaurant in Austin, Texas, and it has a special connection to the community. On the first Wednesday of every month, they offer free meals to anyone who walks through the door. Oh. So anyone in the community who may be hungry, or not able to afford a meal or whatever can walk into Korea House and get a nice warm hot meal. Mama Kim has been serving the people of Austin since 1988.
And since the Wednesday program started in September 2023, so it's only been going on for, like, two years. Korea House has served around 15,000 meals. Wow. That's incredible. The restaurant's employees volunteer their time on these days, which creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
There's a co owner named Vivian Newton who has observed that the monthly events are about more than just food. She said our life is not about get up, eat, go to school, or go to work, and every day just circle around do the same thing. We used to talk about, like, this is not everything. So Vivian, mama Kim, and the generous employees of the Korea House take the extra step providing a peaceful space where everyone can gather for an emotional boost and a full belly. And it's such a cool thing because life is more than the rat race, and I think that's great and smart.
And, and they're doing something big in the community. Humanity. I know. Aw. Isn't that awesome?
Yes. And it's really nice. Good news. Good job, mama Kim. Did you see this story out of No.
Boundary Creek? No. Or Boundary County, I guess. Where's Boundary County? So this actually happened, up by Missoula.
Okay. And up in Idaho near Missoula. It's kind of the the border, and of, like, Northern Idaho and then Montana and Canada and this whole, like, stretch of area. Alright. It's kind of a big problem.
Uh-huh. The, county sheriffs in Boundary County, the US Forest Service and the US Border Patrol, along with the Kootenai tribe, of Idaho law enforcement. They, all work together. All these inter agencies, work together, to catch a bunch of people that were trying to steal huckleberries. I actually did see this.
And they seized over, was it over a 100 gallons of huckleberries? That's a lot of huckleberries. So they think, that these guys, were commercial pickers. They were they were doing this not as like, hey. Let's go pick huckleberries and make jam.
They were like, let's go pick huckleberries and sell huckleberry stuff. So they were, you know, transporting the stuff, across state and and potentially else are you gonna do with a 100 gallons of huckleberries? It's it's so much. It's so much huckleberry. I need some huckleberry jam right now.
Actually, I do have huckleberry jam. Look at you go. Look at you. Anyway, I'm I'm super stoked that, you know, there are people out there trying to, make sure that Stop the huckleberry raids? Well, the the the areas are, you know, available to people.
Like, it's it's not it's not that you can't go pick huckleberries, but a 100 gallons is a little excessive. It's a little greedy. You know? If you're gonna do it commercially, you gotta get your own little huckleberry farm, guys. That's exactly right.
That's the whole point. If you're going to do it for harvest and you're gonna do it for you've you should invest in your own huckleberry plants and do the thing. I want a huckleberry farm. You do? Yeah.
Don't you? Maybe. Here's here's the statement they said because it also is a a big impact on the environment as well. And they said our backcountry is something we wanna ensure stays a safe place for berry picking and outdoor activities. We are committed to keeping it safe and accessible to everyone.
Thanks to our partners, the forest service, and some grant support, we were able to take the decisive action, against suspected illegal commercial operations, and and that's a big deal. They believe that, the the stuff that they, were able to recover and the people that they were able to recover it from, that these individuals, fled from US border patrol during an incident that was reported earlier this week. Oh. And that allowed the border patrol to advance their ongoing investigation, and now they, they were able to seize this, product and everything else. So Yeah.
Little huckleberry thieves. I know. I mean You know how we knew it was them? Because of the huckleberry stains on their fingers? Yeah.
Yeah. Probably. On their mouths. Yeah. They're messing They've been eating the product.
Have you guys been They're running around like Kool Aid smiles? They're eating huckleberries? No? No. No.
Mm-mm. Let me see your teeth. Smile. No. I don't have teeth.
My teeth fell out. So, anyway Also, leave some for the bears. I mean, that's another thing. I mean, you know, they're also just, you know, just just leave it alone. A 100 gallons.
That's so much. You know how much time that must have taken to forage all of that? Well, the rakes that they're using and the leaf blowers and stuff that they're using, like, the way that they're collecting them, Mhmm. Also not good. No.
Yeah. Also not good. Can't believe it. You know? 100 gallons of berries.
100 gallons of berries. Lot of berries. What would you do with one gallon? That's a a milk jug. It's a 100 milk jugs of berries.
I would make some jam. It's 25 gallon buckets. And then I would make some huckleberry scones. Oh. And then I would make some huckleberry jam.
Oh, good. So yesterday, we were talking. Did you get that yawn out? I did. Sorry.
Yesterday, we were, talking about, how excited I was to find, a display of beanie weenies at the People's Market in, in Darby, Montana. Is that the actual name of them on the can? Yeah. Beanie weenies. Yeah.
Have you ever eaten them? No. Good. Ugh. Gross.
I think it's, it's Van Camp's that makes them. I'll tell you. If I'm not mistaken. When we were at that store, we separated. We were looking for some snacks.
Yeah. We separated. I found you. I couldn't find you. It was the tiniest little grocery store, and I looked every down every aisle.
I'm like, where did he go? Finally found you, and you go, I'm so excited. I found something so exciting. Yeah. And I go, what is it?
Why don't you have it? Why isn't it in your hands? And you go, well, I'm not gonna buy it. Yeah. And I brought you to the display.
Yes. And you said, really? You're that excited about Beanie Weenies. And I said, yes. And I'll tell you why I'm excited.
Yeah. I haven't seen Beanie Weenies in the store. They probably exist in in grocery stores in East Idaho. I just have never paid attention, and I've never seen a kiosk standing at the end of an aisle that said, hey. Look.
We're beanie and weenie. Look at us. We're beanie weenies. And so I Is that what it said? No.
It's what it said in my head. I went, woah. So, so I was very excited about the kiosk thing set up there, and I took a a silly video. I mean, the video itself is, like, I mean, how many seconds long? It it's not long.
It's, it's eight seconds. I took an eight second video of walking up to the display, panning up, and zooming in on a can of beanie weenies. That's the whole video. And then yeah. And then you put some music behind it.
Well, I put this sound effect that I think is hilarious. It's for me, finding the Beanie Weenie display said, you finally get to use that silly beanie weenie sound on TikTok. And I and I was your life. Way more exciting. Well, not necessarily, but it's one of my favorite sounds on TikTok.
And it's this I don't know what it is, but it's this gross little voice that says over and over and over. And it just it it the noise is hilarious to me. Yeah. You were pretty stoked seeing this. So I posted the video yesterday.
When I went to bed, it had 27,000 views. I don't understand it. Understand either. I don't get it. What are we doing?
How does the Internet work? It makes no sense. It makes no sense. It's an eight second video of a grocery store aisle with a beanie weenie sound on it and cans of beanie weenie. How many is it up to this morning?

Like, there's a lot I've posted a lot of videos. I'm And this is the one that hits. I'm reading some of the comments.

I know. It was perfectly timed. Yeah. Well You can't figure it out. No.
You can't predict the Internet or what it's gonna do. No. But I have I have a viral video right now. And last night, we were talking about it. And you said it doesn't don't you have to have a million views for it to be viral?
Which is a good question, but I looked it up and virality is not determined by a specific number. It's determined by the speed in which a video grows, and it is incredibly viral right now. It's very fast. Congratulations. I don't understand how it works.
Get impeach your claim to fame. My claim to fame is a video of Beanie Weenies. That's it. That's my It's the Beanie Weenies. Minutes of fame.
Hey. You posted. It. I'm not even in the video. Like, you see me walk up to the kiosk and show off the beanie weenies.
Stupid. Congrats. Internet. Congratulations. I appreciate it.
For bringing that to everyone. Too, which I think is awesome. Like, that if if nothing else, my TikTok page is get like, my profile is getting some new followers. So now, hopefully, additional content that I post, non Beanie Weenie related. Gotta be all Beanie Weenie related.
So now you just gotta go around and find No. I feel like if I do that, then it's too much it's way too on the nose. It's too much Beanie Weenie. Well, I could beanie weenie again, but I can't only beanie weenie. You know?
Gotta mix it up. Throw in a mac and cheese every now and then or a a chili or something. It can't just be all beans. A can of sardines. Yeah.
Some some, potted meat, Vienna sausages, you know, something like that. Thanks, Internet. Dum dum. What is a driving pet peeve of yours? With other people?
Yeah. I'll give you my Okay. Go ahead. And I've seen this so often. It drives me crazy.
When people turn into the wrong lane. Oh, makes me nuts. You're turning onto a road, whether you're turning in the left turn lane or the right turn lane. The law is you turn into the lane closest to you. Do you know how many people do not do that?
A lot. So many. A lot. If you are currently waiting in a light, make sure you turn into the proper lane. Yeah.
Please. Yeah. It's the law. Yeah. It is.
You turn into the lane closest to you. And then after you have completed the turn, if you need to get to another lane, you do that safely by checking your blind spots and your mirrors and everything else. You don't turn wide into the wrong lane, and it happens all the time. I saw it three times on my drive this morning. It's outrageous.
Unnecessary too. Yeah. Turn into the correct lane. Yes, please. That's a that's a really good one.
That one I see almost as often as red light runners. Oh, the red light runners. It's getting so bad. It's terrible. I'm not It's absolutely terrible.
Yellow. They're full on running red. Yeah. They're like, I can't possibly wait thirty five seconds at this light. Yeah.
I will be leaving now. Like, well, good for you. Thank you for putting everyone else's life in danger. I'm glad you got to make that decision for everyone else in this traffic pattern right now. Stop it.
Stop it. I know. I don't like that either. Another one? Do you have any more?
Slow drivers. Okay. This one drives me crazy too. I don't like getting stuck behind a slow driver. But I'm trying to have a little more patience because Okay.
Not everyone is comfortable driving. And so I try to, like, imagine it's probably, like, somebody with their elderly grandma. Okay. Maybe somebody's got somebody who's in pain. Okay.
Maybe it's a young kid trying to learn how to drive for the first time, so they're a little uncomfortable behind the wheel. Maybe somebody's got a big can of soup. Okay. That they're trying very carefully not to spill. Alright.
So I'm trying to have more patience with those people. That. My just go the frustrating part no. And I will I will definitely go around someone who is driving slow. My frustration is when it's like holding up multiple people, and you can't get around because someone in the left lane or the the other, you know, the adjacent lane is, barely going faster.
Yeah. And then you're, like, stuck. And you're and that's where I go I go, like, I would really like to progress quicker. Please let me go through Can't. Like, that's how I that's how I handle it.
I also am using that as a like, maybe the world is trying to slow me down. Oh. I'm trying to have more patience and go slower. Okay. Like, maybe I'm stuck because the world said, hey.
Yeah. Just take a breath. It all it you know, not that I'm trying to, like, speed demon down the road, but I am trying to get places. And not that I am trying to get anywhere more important than anybody else, but just go the speed limit. You know?
If if it's 35, don't be doing 30. Again, Josh, maybe have a little patience. Maybe they've got some soup. They're not trying to spill. Why why the soup?
Because Get a lid. What? You know? You have a lid, but the lid isn't attached. The lid Tape it on.
Tape the lid on. Okay. Listen to me when I tell you soup in a better container. Soup. Maybe it's smoothies.
Carry your smoothies in better containers. I had to I had to go pick up about it was close to 30 smoothies. That's a lot of smoothies. Yeah. I know.
That's and they probably put them in boxes? They did. They had one big box that had, like, the majority of the smoothies. Yeah. And then a smaller box.
Yeah. Yeah. And I was going very slow because I was like, I'm not spilling these smoothies. Yeah. Guess what happened?
You spilled smoothies. I had to break really hard smoothie all over my car. And that's the last time I said I'm doing this. I'm not doing this. Somebody else can be in charge of smoothie runs.
No. We're not doing this anymore. You yeah. You want a drink? Go get it yourself.
I'm not doing this anymore. My whole car is full of smoothie. How long ago was this? The mango tango. Because it's in my feet.
How long ago was it? Years. Like, maybe five years. Uh-huh. Still holding on to that one.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That made me so bad. Your car detailed.
Like, it isn't, like, getting smoothie around now. There anymore, but ugh, I'm so mad. Oh, I was so mad. And then when I pulled up, everybody was expecting me. So when I pulled up Who who didn't get their mango tango?
No. Listen. I said, they're clearly expecting me. They're gonna come and help me. Guess who did not come to help?
No one. You had to carry all those stuff to the office. Yeah. And I was mad. Carried them all up to the office, and I said, come get your I don't know who's this who's.
Come get them. Ugh. I was so mad. Was the person who had the mango tango upset? I can't remember.
Yeah. Did it have just some floor in it? You scooped it up. Here. Yours went for an extra ride.
Sorry about that. Yeah. That's what I do. So have a little patience, John. Alright.
I understand. Maybe somebody's right slowly because they've got a back full seat of smoothies. A back seat full of smoothies. Yeah. That's the proper arrangement of words.
It's possible. It is possible. I know. Or somebody's learning how to drive Okay. Or somebody's got I'll I'll be more patient.
Settle down. Also, just turn into the right lane. Yeah. That's a big one. Don't run red lights.
Stop doing that. Turn into the proper lane. That's it. And also yield to pedestrians. Yes.
They have the right of way. They do. If they're in the crosswalk, yield to pedestrians. Yeah. That's the law.
Last night, you and I, after dinner, got out some supplies, and we were being totally creative together. I mean How cute is that? The cutest. It was so cute. I should have taken a picture of us being so cute.
I mean, I got a I got a new hobby, and this happens. Because you had time for it. That. It's not even a new hobby. Essentially, what happened here is I've seen, some art over the past few years, that I that I like the art style.
And I went, I wanna figure out how to do that. And it's, it's block printing, or lino cutting. And so you have a pad of, you know, whatever this stuff is made of. And, and you put your design on it. You carve out your design.
You roll your ink on, and then you can print. And you can do it on shirts. You can do it on paper. You can do all kinds of cool stuff with them. Stamp.
Essentially. Right? Yeah. But you're carving it yourself. Yeah.
And and it's something I was really curious about, something that I've wanted to try, and, and I've seen some just incredible things done, in multilayered, you know, different color things. Like, I've just seen some really, really cool stuff. I was I was watching a video last night of a guy who, had done some, octopus stuff. He had done some, like, forest stuff. He had done some really intricate things, and he got really heavy into it to where his medium like, his his design became these thin vertical lines.
Oh. And, and so he did a whole like, it was like this old timey kitchen, but it was all individual vertical lines that then had little bits of extra carved out. I mean, I'm talking fine, fine lines and, just incredible. So it's something that I think, you know, is an art style. I I have wanted to get into.
So I got, like, a little kit to try it out, and I'm like, okay. I think I can figure this out. So I was playing around with it last night a little bit while you were doing your, junk journal stuff. Your what do what do you call it? And I mean, it's that art journal Yeah.
Junk journal. Yeah. And you so the the whole kitchen table's covered in art supplies because we're just we're arting in the, in the dining room, but I think it's cool. It was fun. Yeah.
I was in the I was in the mode. Yeah. You were zoning. Creativity was slapping, as they say. Nobody says that.
No. No. A whole bunch of cringe just happened. That's what I live for. Are you crazy?
That's it. That was dicks. No way. No. That was busted.
Nope. No. But listen. My I I'm happily, like, doing my thing. Nobody's bothering me.
The kids are old enough that they do their own thing. Right? Like, they separate. They go off and do their thing. Happy.
Happy to be left alone, mom, in the mode. And then guess who shows up to bug me? The dog. Yeah. I saw I saw your best friend was hanging out by your feet, and I kept trying to entertain her.
And I kept trying to yeah. I did. I'd bring her over. I'd give her little scratches. I'd hang out with her so she wouldn't bug you for a few minutes, And then I'd be like, okay.
I'm done petting you. I'm gonna go back to doing my thing. And she'd immediately go over and start whining at you and bouncing your leg and, like, bopping you with her little we call it pack a punch. She's just punching your leg with her little feet. She just runs up and punches me.
What do you need? Leave me alone. I said this is exactly why I wanted teenagers and why I didn't want a dog because my teenager's finally leaving me alone. Yeah. Well, now it's time for the dog to bug you.
Cool. And she's your little shadow and your little buddy, and she follows you around, and she does the thing. So it was fun being creative, though, in the same kind of space. That was alright. The kitchen table's a disaster.
But I cleaned up my stuff. I didn't because I'm still in the middle of it. Right. So I didn't wanna clean it up because I looked at the time and I went, blah. I have to go to bed, but I don't wanna go to bed.
I know. What's the fun of being an adult and being able to do what you want when you have to just play by the rules all the time anyway? I have to go to bed because I have to go to work. I just wanna stay up Yeah. And be crafty.
Yeah. That's all I wanna do. Yeah. Oh, responsibility is the worst. Yeah.
Well, what are you gonna do? Go to work. Yeah. Well, you told me at one point. You go, just stay up.
Yeah. My kids can be creative. You're like, I've gotta be an adult. Yeah. Who's I what did I tell you?
Nobody's waking me up in the morning. That's what you said. Nobody's making sure I'm awake. I gotta be the responsible one in the house. Some attitude like that.
Yeah. Because guess what? This morning, what happened? I don't know. You're slumbering away.
I said, hey. I wasn't slumbering away. You didn't say hey at all. I guess that was yesterday. Yeah.
No. There was none of that today. I I it was fine. Nobody's waking me up. Well, I don't even know where to start to even talk about this.
I don't either. Look. We're we have our grocery store that we go to. Yeah. And, occasionally, we have to wander into another grocery store.
Another grocery store that I don't like to go into. I understand. For for a myriad of reasons, we are not, big Walmart shoppers. And, that's fine. Whatever.
Everybody has their preference. Everybody's got their place. That's not my place. Right. So when we do venture into a Walmart, it's with hesitation.
And when we go into, we where were we? This was in Montana. Yeah. And it was, like, the the one store that we had that we could be like, okay. We gotta go to, like, a regular store because we needed some, like, not, like, snack foods, junk foods from the gas station.
We actually had to go get, like, real food. And, so we we popped into the Walmart, and they have a Walmart radio. Sam's Club and Walmart radio playing all through the Walmart. Mhmm. And it feels to me like a mockery of radio.
Like, they're they're pretending like I did when I was 12 to be on the radio. And and it's very, pukey, and, and it's not great. And they go, oh, yeah. We got a shout out to the store in Raleigh, North Carolina. We got, Brenda, who's celebrating her 40 at Walmart.
Congratulations, Brenda. It's store number 4652 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Hey, miss Brenda. Thanks, Taylor. Congratulations.
Oh, what is happening? I like your radio voice. No. I like your yeah. You're gonna love you're gonna love this next one coming up here.
It's a big hit from 1965 on the way on Walmart Radio. Like, what are we doing? Your radio voice is my favorite. Yeah? Should I should I should bring it back?
Okay. Here we go. New Zealand with Johnny Depp. Yeah. Yeah.
Edward Van. I'll go you guys. Listen to this. You're not gonna believe this crazy story. You're gonna love this one.
Oh, what are we doing? Walmart radio. Well, I why does Walmart ever radio? Well, that's interesting, isn't it? And I'm sure that it has to do with music licensing because if they wanna play music in the store, you have to pay.
And so rather than have each individual store paying its own license fee, they can create a network, a radio network, and save money by music licensing their own network and broadcasting it to all of their stores. That's why. That it absolutely is a music licensing thing. Can you imagine walking into a big retail store, any one of them, and it's just silent? Actually, for that particular store, like Yeah.
It's I feel overstimulated when I go to Walmart. So you could do with some silence because Sure. It's too much going on. Go, and we're gonna talk about some more. And then they'll do, like, like, contests too.
If you're listening to Walmart and you're, listening to this trivia question right now, run to your phone. Don't walk, run to your phone and dial the number, and you could win. But I never hear them actually give anything away. They just have, like, random people on there. They're like, hey.
What's up? We're listening to Albuquerque. What's going on? We're shopping at Walmart. What is what is it?
I don't know. We only heard that at the one store in Montana. I don't know if every Walmart has a small radio. Is it? It does.
It's everywhere. Let me tell you. And they've been doing it for a while too. It's not brand new. Well, I worked at a Walmart when I was in college, and they did not have Walmart radio at this time.
Did they but they did have They did have team meetings. Yeah. They had team meetings. Right. They had to do a Walmart cheer.
Do you remember it? No. We spelled out Walmart, and then in the middle, there was, like, a squiggle. A squiggle? And you had to, like, get down and do, like, a squiggle.
I miss seeing those. You used to see the staff meeting at the front of the store. That's where we used to do that. And you used to be like, look at the team camaraderie happening at the Walmart. Oh, no.
Look how much everyone involved loves this. I could not tell you a single person's name on my team. W a l star? Squiggle. No.
That's where you had to squiggle. Squiggle. M a r t radio. Walmart radio. Okay.
So they didn't have a radio, but they did have TVs, and they would play, like, different, like I can't even remember what they played. Mhmm. But it was loud. And I just remember, like, coming home from Walmart and being like, I can't. Yeah.
I'm so it's so no so much noise that I just sat in my car for a minute, and I'd be like, just Decompress. Yeah. I only worked there for three months. I did not enjoy it. I see.
I see. Alright. And guess what? That's the only job that on my very last day, I didn't show up. Yeah.
Well, before I got into radio, I worked at Target for a couple of years. Not even that long. Maybe a year, something like that. I did enjoy that job because I was on the Plano team, so I wasn't doing, like, customer service. I I worked in, like, the night shift, and we'd set the shelves.
And the, stocking crew would come in at, like, four in the morning, and they would load everything onto the onto the stocking carts, and we'd go stock shelves. And that was great. I really did enjoy that. Good team. There was, like, a team of, like, six of us.
It was awesome. In the health and beauty. And guess what I did all day? I just zoned. Yeah.
Hey. Is there anything else that I could do? No. Just keep zoning. Everything is zoned.
Nope. Go zone again. Keep zoning. Just keep zoning. Now that you've got to the last aisle, go back to the beginning and start again.
Just zone and zone and zone. Yep. I'm a lose my mind. While on radio quit. We were eating dinner in Montana over the weekend, and I was trying to take a picture of you.
And you said, do you have it in photography mode? Yeah. Well, portrait mode. Portrait mode. Yeah.
That's what it was. And I said, no. I never use portrait mode. So you were trying to show me how to use portrait mode, and then you took a picture of me, regular, and then you took a picture of me in portrait, and you sent it to our daughter and said, which is better, one or two? And she responded, photogenic queen I know.
But in all caps. Right. So So Does that mean sarcasm? I'm trying to I'm trying to, like, read into A 15 year old friend. Texting habits because she also, posted, in all caps I'm trying to find it.
Which group is it in? It's in this one. So, with the app that we have that we use for location and stuff, it'll notify you if somebody's phone is low on battery. Yeah. And so she sent a message and said, charge your phone.
And I said, mind your business. And she said, what? And I said, stop telling me to charge my phone. And then in all caps, she said, my apologies for making sure you guys were okay. I know.
What's the all caps thing? That's what I'm saying. So the all caps thing isn't yelling anymore like us old people think. When it's in all caps, it's like sarcastic. Yeah.
Like, oh. So the photogenic queen In all caps. Right? Was she like, woah. Photogenic queen.
Right. That's the impression I have. Have to read it because that's the gen z all caps there. Oh, that's rude. I thought she was paying me a compliment.
Sure thing. She was just being sarcastic. Yeah. Photogenic queen. Right.
Right. Right. Right. Rude. I I think that's what it means.
Now I gotta look it up, I feel like. I feel like I need to look up, when when what does it mean when Gen z texts all caps? K. You know what I mean? Yeah.
I know that they don't use punctuation. If they yet use punctuation of any kind, it's like someone's upset with them. Yeah. It's gotta be sarcasm. Gen z uses all caps to convey emphasis often as a replacement for yelling or to express excitement or strong emotion.
So Well, that's the same. Similar to how older generations might use bold or italics. They're not using it as like, I'm yelling from the rooftop. It's all caps. They're using it as the way older generations would use bold or italics to emphasize.
Interesting. Yeah. It's extra emotion. Yeah. I just asked her, what does it mean when you use all caps?
Yep. And she said, why? Yeah. Now she's like, why you why you being a weirdo? Why do you wanna know?
It's a secret code. Yeah. You're not allowed to know because because you're not part of the secret culture's club. Yeah. Okay.
Well, I'll just sit over here pretending I know what you're talking about. You're just a mom doing mom thing, being a photogenic queen. Yeah. Yeah. Is it like that?
Like, oh, photogenic queen over here. Okay. She said it's when you're angry about something or really excited. Yeah. So it's extra emotion.
Extra emotion. Yeah. Extra emotion. But it's not yelling like like we are used to seeing it. Okay.
Interesting. Mhmm. Isn't it interesting? We have I was just looking to see then I was scrolling through our our group text to see how many times she's used extra emotion, all caps. We have a it's four of us.
All four of us. Me and you, Beck and Emery are kids. Our son does not participate. No. He did not.
But what he did participate in, he doesn't respond to text messages. He doesn't text us. He he just does his own thing unless it's like, here's some sports news I want you to know about. But when we were on vacation over the weekend, we sent a picture of you with the statue of Sacagawea. Right.
And it only said Sacagawea. In all caps? No. No. But with two exclamation points.
Oh. It was the only thing he's ever said. Sacagawea. Not right now. Look at that.
I know who that is. In our text group, the only thing he's ever said. Well Thanks for participating, buddy. This is big news. Okay.
This news came out over the weekend, and it makes me so happy. And it's not news because I knew this was coming, but they released the trailer. Uh-huh. First final tap two. Okay.
Was it was was it a full trailer or just a teaser? It might have just been a teaser. Okay. I was just making sure that I saw the same thing. Official trailer.
It says official trailer. Spinal Tap two is a sequel to This is Spinal Tap. Yeah. Right. Which came out when?
In 8088? '84. I was gonna say '84. You failed. I know.
So, yeah, that came out in 1984. Now this is, let's let's if you've if you're unaware of this movie or this genre of movie, it's a mockumentary. So it's not a an actual documentary. It is a sort of improvised, a little bit of scripted, but Christopher Guest Who I love. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. He's made, other movies. Christopher Guest, he is the six fingered man in the princess bride. There you go.
And he makes his own movies, including, best in show and Waiting for Goffman. And what are some of the others? So what's the folksy one that he did? I can't think of any of the names of those shows. Winding for Government.
Mighty Wind. Yeah. That's what I was thinking of. And then Spinal Tap, which is Spinal Tap two, The End Continues comes out this year. Yeah.
And these guys so, again, this would this the first movie was made in 1984 when these guys were, what, 30, maybe? Probably. Like, they're old dudes now. Yes. They are.
They're old dudes. And, this this particular movie was such a, like, huge following, this cult following, from this hit movie that the band Spinal Tap actually toured Yeah. Okay. With the songs that they made up. Yeah.
This fake band then went on to actually be a band for a little while. And Christopher Guest is one of the members of the band, and Rob Reiner is involved. Rob Reiner is the director. Right. And, and he is he also plays a guy in the movie.
He plays Marty. Well, yes. Yeah. But so I guess he's the director of the mockumentary. So he's kinda walking around explaining all the stuff.
Anyway, it's hilarious. It's all the backstage crazy antics of a band breaking up and getting back to get all the storylines of every band that has ever existed, exist within, this band. And so the new movie comes out. Do you know when? What's the release date?
I'm trying to find that out. I was just looking. We watched the, the what's it called? The trailer. Yeah.
And there were so many camis. Elton John, Paul McCartney Correct. Quest Love. Yes. They're all played Fran Drescher is in it.
Well, she's in the original. Yeah. I'm just looking at, at who else is here. Paul Schafer, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood. September 12.
Wee Man is in it. I met Wee Man. I that's why I I said Wee Man's in it. September what? Twelfth.
Okay. I'm looking forward to it. Me too. We have to go see this when it comes out. Yeah.
Of course, we do because I love the original. I love Christopher Guest. Anything Christopher Guest does, I'm all in because I love that mockumentary style. Best in show is one of my Yeah. Absolutely.
Top, top favorite movies. Yeah. Great, great, great movie. Anyway, get excited. 09/12/2025.
Spinal Tap two. The end continues. Yeah. Right. I saw a picture the other day on the Internet.
This was posted by somebody I did not know. K. So I don't know if it was real or if it was just, you know, a lot of Internet is for for the likes Sure. For the views and stuff like that. So they had posted a picture of their spice cabinet and said, oh, organizing your spices feels so good.
It's so cathartic. And there was at most, like, five to eight spices in the spice cabinet. Okay. And I went five to eight spices, and one of them was pepper. Alright.
Five to eight spices. There was not a lot of spice. That is that is not a lot. I have way more spices than that. Right.
And so then it made me wonder how many spices is typical for people. Oh, good question. I'll tell you, in our cabinet, there's at least 30 spices. Yeah. I would agree with that.
So here are the spices. There's only five. Salt, pepper, cinnamon. Okay. We don't keep salt and pepper in the spice thing anyway.
I don't think you can count that even as a spice. That is not even like, that's an that's an ingredient that you should be using In everything. Yeah. Salt and but not in everything everything. But Yeah.
It no. You don't use it in, like, cake. Okay. You might use some salt and pepper, but you you know? You know what I'm saying?
There's there are certain recipes that don't call for it. But salt and pepper is an ingredient that is it is indeed a seasoning, but it is not I don't count it as a spice. I don't either. It's not in our spice drawer or spice cupboard either. It it lives on the stove.
Now I wanna count our spices. I agree with you. I think we have No. There's at least 30. I agree with you.
Because I have little pouches of stuff as well, that I hang on to from different restaurants or whatever or, like, when we were getting the meal, delivery stuff. Uh-huh. Like, stuff that was extra, we didn't use, or we cut the recipe down or whatever, so I'd have extra, you know, chili powder or whatever it is. So if I if I don't have it in a can or a little bottle, it could be in a little pouch. And that's why I'm saying at least 30 because there are some that are real specific.
But we because we've got, like, Chinese five spice. We've got all the, stuff for curry. We've got all the stuff for Indian food. We've got a lot of spices. A lot.
If you could only keep five spices, not including salt and pepper, red pepper flakes. Nope. That would be gone. No way. Yeah.
Why? Because I don't use that Oh, I use it for Often. No. You add it to pasta. I put it in other stuff.
I would I'd keep curry. I'd keep cumin. When do you use curry? Sometimes. No.
You don't? What? Cumin, yes. Or or a a taco seasoning. Yeah.
So I would keep a a bottle of taco seasoning, for sure. Well, that's I would keep an Italian Blend? Blend because then you're getting oregano and parsley, in one. And basil. Yeah.
So I would keep an Italian blend. I would keep, a taco seasoning. I would keep, Cinnamon? Yeah. I we use it sometimes.
It does a lot of sitting around. When's the what what do you think you're making? I've been with you a lot of years. I've seen you make cinnamon toast, like, five or fewer times. Five or four.
I haven't made it in a long time, but I would be sad to get rid of cinnamon. I feel like that's a staple. It is, but we don't use it that often. I use it on hot peaches. I'll tell you what I would keep.
Okay. We were kinda working on the list together, but go ahead. Let's hear it. Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. Really?
Because you wanna sing the song? Yeah. You don't even like that song. Is that MacArthur Park? No.
It's it's no. It's what is it called? It's Scarborough Fair. It's Scarborough Fair. Okay.
Thank you. I knew it was it's not called that. No. It's anyway Please, please. No.
You don't have to we know. We get the joke. You don't have to keep it going. We we got it. Okay.
Garlic powder, I use, fairly often. K. But I also have garlic in freeze regular garlic. Yeah. Too, but I use the garlic powder sometimes.
Like, I use that one in recipes more than I use paprika, for example. Paprika? Paprika is only for deviled eggs. And it's crushed red pepper. Just crushed even more.
It's not even that hot. It's it's other things. It's not just crushed red pepper. That's what it is. No.
It's more than that. Otherwise, they'd call it crushed red pepper. No. It's paprika. No way.
It's got other stuff. It's smoky. It is a little bit smoky. Let's find out. Alright.
Well, while you're doing that, I'll think a little bit more about some spices. It's dried and ground capsicum annum peppers. Sure. Specifically, bell peppers or sweet peppers. Okay.
So it's a it's a crushed sweet pepper. It's not red pepper flake. Red pepper flake is different. Okay. Okay.
I don't know. And dill? This no. I don't use dill, though. Often.
Use dill. Nutmeg gets used in the fall. But, again, do I care? I'm only making pumpkin pie sometimes. Yeah.
It's really I It'd be tricky to to just keep five, That's why I have so many is because I don't use them all. Like, I really like Montreal steak. I'd have to have that one in there. That one's I've gotta have Montreal steak. A staple?
I use Montreal steak in burgers and on steak, and, Montreal steak's a good seasoning. That's a winner. Okay. That one stays. Okay.
Taco seasoning, Italian blend. Montreal Steak. Montreal Steak. Those three are guaranteed a spot. And sage.
No. Rosemary. No. No. No.
No. It's time to ask the big old would you rather this or that question. The most important question of the day. I don't know if it is, but it is for now. Would you rather have a summer with no sun or a summer with no shade?
Oh. Oh, these are both tricky, aren't they? I have selected my answer. Have you? Yeah.
Tell me what it is, and tell me why. Because I need help deciding. Oh, you make a decision. No. Convince me.
I'm gonna take a summer with no shade. Why? Why? Because I want the sun. I want the the warmth.
I want the I I would I would not like a a summer with just darkness. Yeah. Or clouds, just like gloomy days every day. It would be warm. I know some folks who love gloomy days every day.
You do? I do. They live their life one day like Eeyore after another. Gloomy, sad days. And they enjoy that.
Like, they they live that way, and they're and they're very happy and content with that. I appreciate a gloomy day. Me too. I love a gloomy day as a reprieve from all the sunshine, and I and I would be sad to have no gloomy days. You want a gloomy day as a novelty, not a That's right.
Every day. That's exactly right. I what did I tell you the other day? The sun was out, and I said, ah, everyone is just in a better mood when the sun is out. Yeah.
It's amazing what a little sunshine in your day can do for you, Eeyore. You need that vitamin d. You gotta wake up and get some sunshine and have a little smile. You know? I'm gonna go summer with no shade.
Yeah. I convinced you. We're gonna be nice. But it'll be alright. Anyway.
It's true. You also didn't say I couldn't have air conditioning. You just said no shade. Yeah. Correct.
Which is fine. No shade. I'll have to hydrate more. Yeah. You will.
And sunscreen. Get those electrolytes, bud. Big brimmed hat. Yeah. Big big floppy hat.
It doesn't have to be floppy. I've got my big brim sun hat. I'll wear that. K. I'll wear my floppy hat.
K. K. Good choice, my guy. Would I don't care for it. I don't like it.
Would you rather this or that? Name a cookie I love. Oreos. Name a Snickerdoodle. It's Oreo.
Oatmeal. You named Oreos. I just said name a cookie. You wanna name several. Those are your top three.
Yeah. That's fine. Oreos are delicious. I like them. Name a candy I don't like.
Jelly Ranchers. Okay. Name another one until we get the right one. A candy bar or define candy. A chocolaty one.
It's not a candy bar. A chocolate candy? Yeah. Chocolate candy. Raisinets.
No. Those are gross, though. Keep going. Whoppers. I don't mind them.
Ugh. They're not a first choice. And after you've had about three, they have a real weird flavor. They're gross on the first one. Boy.
It's Reese's. I don't like the peanut butter cups Because I was just thinking candy. That's a candy bar. It's not a candy bar. Bar, but you find it with the candy bars.
You find everything with the candy bars. Nice. Does Kit Kat count as a candy bar? Correct. No.
Oh, yes. It It's a it's a chocolate covered wafer. Anyway It's not a candy bar. Anyway. Next.
Name something No. Else? No. Why why do things I love have to do things that I don't like? And and and look.
There are people who are gonna be so excited about this news. The world guess what, Josh? It isn't about you. I understand. I just don't like Reese's peanut butter.
Okay. It's sweate. I It's not good peanut butter, and people go nuts for it. They love it. What have they done?
My family members love their pee they've they've It's the number one Halloween candy. It's the number one grossest candy. I don't mind a Reese's. What have they done to Oreos and Reese's? Well, the the two snack giants have mashed up your dreams and are coming out with not one, but two new products.
The Reese's Oreo cup k. And the Oreo Reese's cookie. Mhmm. No. Not I think they sound nice.
Contain Suette chocolate and Suette peel. You don't know that. Yeah. I do. They're hitting the hitting stores this fall.
It's an Oreo cookie with, Reese's peanut butter on the inside. Yuck. It's a, probably, I don't have a picture of it, but probably a peanut butter cup with Oreo on the outside. Yeah. I was just looking at it.
It that's what it appears to be. Yeah. Like a peanut butter with the Oreo cookie on the outside. Yeah. Looks pretty good.
I would eat it. I listen, though. I don't really love peanut butter, so I'd probably only have one. Oh, and What? And the peanut butter cup has Oreo chunks in it.
But then they took the stoof, and they made the top part of the peanut butter cup white chocolate. Gross. Gross. Do you know that they made once upon a time, they made Twix Oreos? That is something I could get behind.
With the caramel in there and stuff? Yeah. I like that. Yeah. It sounds nice.
Yeah. Doesn't it? Uh-huh. So Reese's Oreo is filled with Reese's peanut butter and Oreo crumbs, and then an Oreo cookie on the outside. The, keep the cup is filled with Oreo crumbs, and then, yeah, it's got that white chocolate on top.
I am not a fan of white chocolate. I know you're not. I know the things you like and don't like. And it seems like there's lots of people who do like that stuff, and that's why they keep using them. So When you go to hershey's, land.com and it asks you to accept all cookies, shouldn't they send you some?
Yeah. Like like, if you're gonna make I'm gonna go to cookie settings. I think a cookie website should have a joke about their cookies and accepting their cookies. I'm rejecting all cookies because because of this. Reese's milk chocolate, Oreo cookie crumbs, Reese's peanut butter, one delicious snack.
You're rejecting all cookies cookies because of one cookie you don't like? They're also so they're doing miniature ones. They're doing the little mini ones, as well as the big cups. So you'll be able to get a little bag of the mini, Oreo Reese's cups as well. Good for them.
When are they available? September. Everything comes in September. Yeah. Man, oh, man.
It's only a day away. What? Annie? Are you are you quoting Annie tomorrow? Yeah.
Oh, man. Well, I was just thinking because August is right around the corner. Yeah. So I'm like, September seems so far away. But then in my head, I went, no.
It's actually really not. And then I It's only a month away. Me think of Annie. And so Yeah. Alright.
