Speaker AThis is a very apropos question.
Speaker AThere is a hilarious debate on TikTok right now.
Speaker AI highly encourage people to check it out, asking, who would win in a battle, 100 Brits or 100Americans?
Speaker BWow.
Speaker BI want to know this.
Speaker AYes.
Speaker AI want to know, if you were recruiting the American Dream Team for this effort, which states and cities would you recruit from in the U.S.
Speaker Aoh, man.
Speaker BOh, that's such a great question.
Speaker BAnd that the answer to this is easy.
Speaker BI'm going 100% all in on Boston.
Speaker AOh, my gosh.
Speaker BThey did it once, they could do it again, you know, and the muscles will come out in force to defend.
Speaker BTo defend our nation 100%.

Speaker AThe threads are so great.
Speaker AYou have to read these.
Speaker ALike, people are like, going back to the Brits, and the Brits are like, oh, we'll get some people from Newcastle and all these places, and.
Speaker AAnd then they're like, one answer.
Speaker AYeah.
Speaker AOne of the answers was, but in the US we have Florida, man, so we will win no matter what.

Speaker ANot scared.
Speaker ALike, it's amazing.
Speaker AGo down this rabbit hole.
Speaker BHighly.
Speaker BOh, yeah.
Speaker BThat's so good.
Speaker BSuch a good question.
Speaker BAll right, the paper, Peacock's new Office offshoot will debut in September.
Speaker BI'm curious.
Speaker BAnd where does the Office rank in your pantheon of great sitcoms?
Speaker ATop three for sure.
Speaker BI mean, I've never seen an episode.
Speaker AYou haven't?
Speaker BNo, I've seen the British Office.
Speaker BI've never seen the American Office episode.
Speaker BI need to watch it.
Speaker BYeah, but it's in your top three for sure.
Speaker AIt's just.
Speaker AIt was so good.
Speaker AAnd at the time, it was like.
Speaker AIt's like Friends.
Speaker ALike, it was just.
Speaker AIt provided that moment of laughter that you, like, you knew you're going to be laughing at something.
Speaker AAnd I love a show like that where you can, you know, you're going to get a smile out of it.
Speaker BWow.
Speaker BTop three.
Speaker BOkay, I'll check it out.
Speaker AWhat are your top three?
Speaker BOh, man, I.
Speaker BI mean, Seinfeld and Cheers are definitely running for 1 and 2.
Speaker BI'd have to think about what 3 is, and I want to spend more time on that than being put on the spot because, you know, important pop, cultural sitcom television.
Speaker BI know my life.
Speaker AI know.
Speaker AHow dare I ask such a question?
Speaker AOkay, I'm going to ask you another question.
Speaker AMars Pet Care today announced that they are collaborating with a mental health company, Calm, on a collection of content that's meant to help pet lovers think about their bond with their pets as a way to improve their own well being.
Speaker AWhat moment with sweet little Ginsburg makes you most happy or calm?
Speaker AChris?
Speaker BOh, man, that's easy.
Speaker BLike, I love when Ginsburg, like, I'll be sitting watching tv.
Speaker BI mean, everyone.
Speaker BI feel like every dog owner has this story, but she'll come and she'll put her head on my lap and then she rolls over and opens her belly to me and just puts her arms like, straight out like Superman.
Speaker AGinsburg is a Bernadoodle for everyone who's a burning doodle.
Speaker BYes, Bernie Doodle.
Speaker BAnd.
Speaker BAnd she just has me stroke her belly for like an hour.
Speaker BShe just doesn't let me stop.
Speaker BThat's the downside of it.
Speaker BLike, my arm gets really tired after a time.
Speaker BAnd.
Speaker BAnd she's a very needy dog, though.
Speaker BShe just doesn't let me.
Speaker BJust doesn't let me go.
Speaker BBut.
Speaker ABut it calms you.
Speaker BBut hey, yeah, it calls me and I.
Speaker BYeah, I guess I'm.
Speaker BI give her what she needs and.
Speaker BAll right, last one.
Speaker BIt is rumored that the final season of Stranger Things.
Speaker BYes.
Speaker BAnd the final season of Stranger Things could debut as soon as October 10th, a little bit later than the typical summer release.
Speaker BWhat are you excited to learn in this show's final run, Chris?
Speaker AI feel terrible.
Speaker AI can't even remember what happened at the end of last season.
Speaker ALike, I need the recap.
Speaker ABut if I remember, barely something with the redhead girl was going on, right?
Speaker BYeah.
Speaker BDidn't she, like, almost die or was like in a coma or something?
Speaker BI don't know.
Speaker AShe was like, possessed or something.
Speaker ABut, like, I don't know there, like, I think there was something there that I wanted to find out still, so.
Speaker ABut I'm ready for that show to be over.
Speaker AI know that might not be a popular opinion, but I think I kind of am too.
Speaker BLike, if.
Speaker BIf they held it out a little much longer, I think I'd be like, okay, come on, let's get this going.
Speaker BYeah.
Speaker AI mean, Millie Bobby Brown doesn't even look the same anymore.
Speaker AHave you seen pictures of her recently?
Speaker AI'm like, how are you playing a lot?
Speaker BShe's like 40 now.
Speaker BRight, right.
Speaker BBut, yeah, no, I think the other thing I want to.
