1
00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:37.840
Hi, Gary, how are you good? Happy holidays?

2
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:40.840
Happy? What do you mean happy holidays? Is it the holidays?

3
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:43.479
Or is that not the PC thing to say?

4
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:46.200
I know, it's actually fine. I just put a couple

5
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:48.159
of things on to do this recording real quick. But

6
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.439
thanks for joining us audience of ten millions of people.

7
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:53.359
We've just kind of thrown this together because we thought

8
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:55.679
we'd want to wish you guys a happy holiday in

9
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:58.439
a new year. And in case you didn't remember, my

10
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:03.479
name is a case if I and you are Phil m'kraken,

11
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:11.239
and that's a great way to.

12
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:14.959
So we are Don and Gary doing sixty.

13
00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:15.799
Yes we are.

14
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:18.079
He is Don.

15
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:22.200
And you are Gary Gary, and.

16
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:28.599
We are doing sixty. So now Western Berbers, we're navigating and.

17
00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:33.120
Oh we're here to navigate the world at this sage.

18
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:36.040
I need to write that down because I don't care careful,

19
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:38.239
well we are, We don't remember much in any way.

20
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:40.000
I think this is this thing too glaring because I

21
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:41.359
feel like I'm gonna get poked in the eye.

22
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:44.439
Well, I'm a little fearful for you. Although I'm impressed

23
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:46.120
by your very colorful.

24
00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:47.480
Antlers, I don't know what you're talking about.

25
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:48.200
They're sparkling.

26
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:49.519
These just popped out of my head.

27
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:51.640
Are those real? Are those ai?

28
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:56.359
Uh? Well, I had them installed this morning, so I

29
00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:58.400
have to get a drill gun to get them out

30
00:01:58.400 --> 00:01:59.239
because I that.

31
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.680
Why I sound dirt. Later today, Someone'm gonna ride you

32
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:02.159
with a whip.

33
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:08.960
Well, if everything goes to plan, right, that is on

34
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:11.520
the we start having guests, so who knows.

35
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:17.240
So this is the Sunday before Christmas. So December has

36
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:17.879
flown by.

37
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:20.879
Yes, absolutely, it's gonna be twenty minutes and Christmas Day

38
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:22.520
we'll be here. And I got to say, this whole

39
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:25.520
year I think is flown by. Since we pulled the clock.

40
00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:29.719
I started the clock ticking at Halloween. It's just been

41
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:34.080
non stop, non stop, NonStop, and apparently, according to all retailers,

42
00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:36.360
Spring is here, Christmas is already over.

43
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.879
Just so you know, well, can I tell you not

44
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:42.520
that I'm like, you know, bragging, But December has been

45
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:47.080
a very busy month. So the first weekend John was visiting,

46
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:50.439
so he was here from Saturday through Monday, and that

47
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:55.840
weekend was the start of this big extravaganza, a lighting

48
00:02:55.840 --> 00:02:58.800
thing called Glow SF where they take about seven different

49
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:02.759
buildings in San Francis and they illuminate them with videos

50
00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:07.439
and you know, really cool, cool graphics. And this for

51
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.199
like a two week period, so it's over now. But

52
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:11.800
it started the night before we got here. So we

53
00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:15.240
did that the first night, walked around downtown San Francisco

54
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:19.000
looking at all these great buildings that were illuminated. And

55
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:23.039
then the second week of December I had three different

56
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:24.199
holiday parties.

57
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:26.599
Can I ask you to speak up just a little

58
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:29.039
bit for those of us who are hard of hearing.

59
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.120
Am I am? I? Is my volume down?

60
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:34.120
Just just put wrap your mouth around the microphone a

61
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:34.560
little bit?

62
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:39.759
Oh god, stuff, let me turn up my volume.

63
00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:43.759
Okay. Isn't there a song called crank up the volume?

64
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:45.360
Let me try that? Does that better?

65
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:47.400
It's it's fine, Go ahead, people.

66
00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:49.800
I did check and my mic is on.

67
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:53.319
Well that's a step in the right direction for some two.

68
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:57.919
And it's right here anyway. So three different holiday parties

69
00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:01.879
in one week, and then that Friday I went to

70
00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:06.319
the current theater for holiday show. Apparently this show has

71
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:10.719
been around San Francisco for nineteen years. Started very small

72
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:13.719
in someone's home, and then over the years, through word

73
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:15.919
of mouth, got bigger, bigger, bigger, And this is the

74
00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:18.639
first time doing at the current theater, and it is

75
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:23.959
a live show recreating a couple holiday episodes of the

76
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:27.199
TV series The Golden Girls. Oh yes, and all the

77
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:31.959
performers are in drag. Great, hilarious. So I'm not good

78
00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:37.040
at flinging open a fan. But to our listeners, what

79
00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:39.240
I'm going to be showing you is a fan that

80
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:40.040
I purchased.

81
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:43.560
Back it up a little bit, back it up that

82
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:47.800
had been told that a lot. You're right, fabulous.

83
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:52.800
It's a very colorful fan with before characters from The

84
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:56.160
Golden Girls in drag, of course, and the theme song

85
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:58.879
is thank you for being a friend, with this says

86
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:00.000
thank you for being a fan.

87
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:01.000
Cute.

88
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:02.920
So I thought that was very cute.

89
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:04.120
Which episode did they do?

90
00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:09.199
There was the episode where the actress Lois and Netelsen

91
00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:11.680
came on as a friend of a friend of Dorothy's

92
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.800
and we were friends of Dorothy and her character is

93
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:19.800
lesbian and the roommates don't know and during her stay

94
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:23.439
with them forever many days, she falls in love with Rose,

95
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.800
the Betty White character. Yes, I remember that, And so

96
00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:28.199
that was one of the episodes, and they, you know,

97
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:30.480
the intermission, they came back and did another one but

98
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:33.519
they both were holiday themed, so they recreated the set.

99
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:38.319
You know, see, the furniture looked very similar, and the

100
00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:43.120
four actors were really good. They really encapsulated the characters

101
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:45.199
that we you know, saw on tv O this year.

102
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:48.480
So I did that. What else? Today, I'm going to

103
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:52.319
go to a holiday concert at Grace Cathedral, which is

104
00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:54.920
the top Fairmont where the Fairmont Hotel is the top

105
00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:56.920
pop hill. So I've done that for a couple years.

106
00:05:56.959 --> 00:06:04.279
I enjoy that, But I've been baking. Wait what you

107
00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:04.800
fell out?

108
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:05.120
Oh?

109
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:07.040
Well, you know, like you, I like to cook, but

110
00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:08.720
I also like to bake. And I've had a tradition

111
00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:12.600
the last several years where I baked bread for two

112
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:16.279
different audiences. One is where I live in my conda.

113
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:20.720
We have you know, amazing housekeeping staff and lobby tendance

114
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:22.839
and they're all here seven days a week. And then

115
00:06:22.839 --> 00:06:25.399
plus we have on site staff of engineers and so on,

116
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:29.639
and so I baked them mini loaves of bread in

117
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:32.879
different flavors like banana bread or whatever nice. So I'm

118
00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:34.959
doing that. I started some last night. I'll do some

119
00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:38.000
more today and hand them out. And then I live

120
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:41.519
between two fire stations once like a few blocks that way,

121
00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:43.680
once a few blocks that way. So also for the

122
00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:46.199
past several years I baked them the regular sized loaves.

123
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:51.240
So last night I baked gingerbread. I did a lemon

124
00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:55.279
pound cake with a glaze and chocolate banana loaf.

125
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:57.720
So did the furman get a loaf of you?

126
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:01.279
They will after we're done here. So let's just wrap it.

127
00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:05.040
Up now if I had a nickel, I've got.

128
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:09.839
A few deliveries to make. Yes, I'll be taking the

129
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:13.079
each each we'll get three loaves of us.

130
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.439
So how many total loaves are you making? Do you

131
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:16.839
know yet? Or does it well?

132
00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:20.439
For the firefighters at six there? And then I was

133
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:25.120
told that on site staff I was fifteen six big

134
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:27.240
big ones and fifteen small ones.

135
00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:30.879
Boy, we're just turning this this holiday special around.

136
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:34.480
Not that it's about not that it's about the size. Well,

137
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:38.639
but yeah, so it's been. And then of course, you know,

138
00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:41.879
yesterday I had to do my volunteer work, so I went.

139
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:46.079
They were asking for volunteers to help add like a

140
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:50.800
toy drive event where families are coming in, and we

141
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:54.759
were some people were rapping, some people were handing out food,

142
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:57.759
and I was a greeter at the front door and

143
00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:01.959
my holiday attire and yeah, welcome families in who you

144
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:05.000
know maybe needed a little help this holiday season. So

145
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.360
a lot of people companies donated a lot of you know,

146
00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:11.040
toys and things. So a lot of volunteers were there

147
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:12.720
and it was it was a nice afternoon.

148
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:15.439
Super I'm gonna move this out of my way. I'm

149
00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:17.120
starting to hallucinate with this.

150
00:08:17.480 --> 00:08:19.639
Oh no, said throwing you off.

151
00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:22.759
I'll put it right there. Yeah, so it's been a

152
00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:25.279
how about anything else going on or you you're ready

153
00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:26.319
for the holiday itself?

154
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:29.879
Yeah, I mean we already did a fan Oh yeah. Also,

155
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:34.080
we did a family luncheon last weekend because I have

156
00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:36.039
some relative my one of my nieces was in from

157
00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:38.480
out of town with her husband, and since we couldn't

158
00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:41.000
all be together for Thanksgiving or Christmas all of us,

159
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:44.039
we did pick that day into the luncheon and I cooked.

160
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:49.759
I did a feast of Mexican food. Why you following out?

161
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:51.840
You know I cooked, well, you cooked, but I mean

162
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:53.480
doing a lot of cooking.

163
00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:55.840
Let me tell you. After the first time ever, I

164
00:08:55.879 --> 00:09:02.480
made posle and then and then uh, I served ostavas,

165
00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:06.360
and then I started with a shrimp cevicha.

166
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:08.159
Which I had made that by I'm so impressed.

167
00:09:08.200 --> 00:09:10.240
And then for dessert, I made a terrest.

168
00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:12.399
Lechis cake shut the front door.

169
00:09:12.759 --> 00:09:14.759
So I made it all. It took me two days

170
00:09:14.799 --> 00:09:15.200
of cooking.

171
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:19.559
So first time on the trestlechie cake, first ches, and

172
00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:21.600
first some of pasole. I know you're a fan of

173
00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:26.080
those because you buy them sometimes from a certain bakeries.

174
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:28.200
Yeah, there's a bakery in the Mission District of San

175
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:31.120
Francisco that unfortunately they're not there anymore. But that was

176
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.600
the bad one. I'd never Now did you grow up?

177
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:36.399
Did you know about trest lechers cake? I mean, being

178
00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:37.240
the war I did?

179
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:40.399
I didn't. They're so sweet, They're just not thinks something

180
00:09:40.440 --> 00:09:43.559
that I aspired to. But yeah, I mean, I'm not

181
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:44.519
going to refuse a piece.

182
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:47.519
No, growing up, I had never heard of it, never

183
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.720
had it. And then then as adult like, oh what

184
00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:53.559
is this? What is that? Trest legs three milks? Never

185
00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:58.240
knew it was a Mexican dessertly just so, yeah, if

186
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:00.639
there's an opportunity to buy one for an I'll do it.

187
00:10:00.679 --> 00:10:02.320
But I decide, well, let me try and make one,

188
00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:04.960
and I'm not gonna lie. Turned out pretty darn good.

189
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:08.039
Don't lie and the Bizola pretty darn good. Both recipes

190
00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:08.600
are keepers.

191
00:10:08.840 --> 00:10:10.960
Okay, well, I just want to fill in real quick

192
00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:13.279
what I've been doing, because you know me, the demure ones,

193
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:15.120
sitting at home in the dark with no lights on.

194
00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:17.639
Basically, yeah, functioning bathrooms.

195
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.320
Now, yes, well that's done. That's my life. So the

196
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:22.480
good news is that there's been a lot of entertaining

197
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:23.919
and I've been doing a lot of cooking too, and

198
00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:26.759
actually we're not done with the entertaining. So a couple

199
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:29.080
of nights ago, we had the girls over. Alex and

200
00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:31.600
Jill and Alicia came over. I made them one of

201
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:36.559
our Patty Ginich recipes from PBS. She's a wonderful Mexican

202
00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:38.840
cook who does all this. I might have mentioned her before,

203
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.879
and she actually even said on her YouTube page when

204
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:44.440
I said I'm making this tonight, Patty, she said, enjoy.

205
00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:45.919
So of course we're close friends.

206
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:48.759
Now, just so you know, so, why is your name Joy? Now?

207
00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:53.799
What's enjoy? Enjoy your enchiladas. So that was a brand

208
00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:55.879
new recipe. And then last night we went to another

209
00:10:55.879 --> 00:10:58.159
friend's house for a little quick, impromptu get together which

210
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:01.279
lasts until about midnight. Started at six So that's how

211
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:03.919
that went. And as we speak, we have another guest

212
00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:06.120
coming in Victoria's coming to stay with us for a

213
00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:07.519
few days through Christmas.

214
00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:08.159
Nice.

215
00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:10.799
Today, this afternoon we're going to another party in Alicia

216
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:15.039
and Simon's house. We're doing a pre holiday dinner. I

217
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.720
guess that's today. Then on Wednesday we are actually going

218
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:21.879
over to Jonathan and Sonia's house for Christmas Day dinner.

219
00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:24.399
Then New Year's Day, I'm actually hosting a brunch. You're

220
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.000
welcome to fly on over and join us if you

221
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:26.399
want to.

222
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:27.200
Wow.

223
00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:29.840
Yeah. So it's been a lot of cooking and a

224
00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:32.879
lot of entertaining, and a lot of parties and things.

225
00:11:32.919 --> 00:11:36.480
So it's been really a whirlwind tour. I mean, a

226
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:37.279
lot going on.

227
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:39.360
So yeah, I've got more. Yeah, next week, I've got

228
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:43.000
more things coming out. I've got three parties between Saturday

229
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.879
and Sunday. Well, I've got five parties, but my three

230
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:48.480
are bigger than your five.

231
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:52.240
Thing, we'll try putting five into three sometimes, that's what

232
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:55.639
he said, wow, but down into the butcher.

233
00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:58.120
Yeah. So it's it's been. It's a busy month. And

234
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:02.879
the bonus is that our office all always closes between

235
00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:07.360
Christmas and New Year's Yeah, so there's that time off.

236
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:12.000
Plus I had accumulated vacation days I hadn't taken this year,

237
00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:13.799
and if I don't take them, I lose them. Yep,

238
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.080
so I pepper them into December. So I think in

239
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:18.399
the whole month of December, I've worked like four days.

240
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.240
Good for you, so where I don't go back until

241
00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:22.200
January second.

242
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:24.240
Good for you. And you know what, you deserve it, dude,

243
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:29.360
You're like, dude, Sorry, I never seen you married, Dude, Mary,

244
00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:32.159
you deserve it. No. I think it's important because we

245
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:34.639
all work so hard. And yeah, I too realized. I

246
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:36.600
didn't realize that. You know, if you don't use these

247
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.320
hours at work, they just basically pay you out. So

248
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.480
it's like, well, no, I'll take a freaking day off instead.

249
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:42.039
Yeah.

250
00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:43.840
So I'm taking the two days after Christmas off and

251
00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:46.159
I'm going to find someplace else to just take off.

252
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:46.879
Yeah.

253
00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:47.679
Yeah.

254
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:50.559
So now you up in Redondo the whole time, are

255
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:52.480
you getting down to uh.

256
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:54.639
No, it's Redondo this year. Okay, We're not going down

257
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:56.679
to no home screing. It's just too much going on here.

258
00:12:56.840 --> 00:12:59.360
And so it is what it is. But it's finally

259
00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:03.200
turned cool. Here. I'm very happy hence my dog scarf. Also,

260
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:05.399
thank you Christine Breman, my sister in law, for knitting

261
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:07.200
this for the dogs. But it fits me perfectly.

262
00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:09.879
So wait, she knitted for the dogs and you're wearing it.

263
00:13:12.039 --> 00:13:15.600
Point Well, I'm just saying, I mean, if it's.

264
00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:18.279
The dogs should be wearing, they have their own other scarves.

265
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:23.919
I'm just I'm doing this for the visual input packed.

266
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:29.679
Yes, yeah, so's it's been a busy month, and can

267
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:31.159
I do a little plug for something?

268
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:32.159
Sure?

269
00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:34.600
Sure, Well, because you and I were involved in this,

270
00:13:34.679 --> 00:13:36.240
I mean, we haven't done it for a couple years,

271
00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:39.200
but if you know, obviously there's tons of podcasts to

272
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:45.879
listen to. But in the archives, we have our previous podcast. Yeah,

273
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:49.360
three Pie's in a podcast, which were like over fifty

274
00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:50.799
episodes that we recorded.

275
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:51.720
I remember that.

276
00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:56.240
Between twenty twenty and twenty twenty three. Yeah right, And

277
00:13:57.360 --> 00:13:59.559
I think I'm really proud of that work that we

278
00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:03.000
did with with John, the three of us, and because

279
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:05.799
we did some amazing episodes. You know, some were very silly,

280
00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:09.720
some were we took you know, a series of topics

281
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.120
and had some serious discussions and we revealed a lot.

282
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:16.720
So it's a little bit everything and a lot of laughs.

283
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:17.879
And actually, you know.

284
00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:19.600
That's not a bad idea, Garous. You want to kind

285
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:22.600
of plug the holiday is the holiday episodes or all

286
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:22.919
of them?

287
00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:25.600
Well, I mean all that's fifty plus, but yeah, if

288
00:14:25.639 --> 00:14:27.919
we have holiday ones, yeah, definitely we can. I'll have to.

289
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:31.559
I have all the artwork. Be fun to revisit those,

290
00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:33.159
But no, I just want to put a plug in

291
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:36.039
because just because we're not doing it anymore doesn't mean

292
00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:37.799
that people can't listen to them. I mean they're in the.

293
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:40.840
Archives, true, And I actually get reports sometimes about how

294
00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:43.919
many people are actually downloading those episodes still, and it's

295
00:14:44.120 --> 00:14:46.759
pretty impressive, I have to say, if I do so

296
00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:50.360
so ourselves, it's pretty impressive that people are still downloading

297
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:51.080
those episodes.

298
00:14:51.559 --> 00:14:53.240
Well, yeah, because it was a lot of love and

299
00:14:53.240 --> 00:14:55.919
effort put into it. Yeah, And of course you know

300
00:14:55.960 --> 00:14:58.080
we have this episode with this we've done how many

301
00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:00.879
