Rhett McLaughlin, welcome to the show.

Thanks for having me, man.

I can't believe you nearly made us change this tabletop to something cleaner.

We do have something that's more professional.

This is beautiful.

I mean, you know, welcome to our space.

Yeah, thanks for, thanks for hosting me here.

I usually open the show by saying something like, thanks for being here, or welcome to the show.

And I've done that on a few occasions in other people's sets and other people's houses. And they kind of look at me a little bit blankly. So I'm sure you know what I mean. But thanks for having me. You got a lot of character just seen over there it's like a it's like a

it's like a real old school thing why did it stop what what happened we kind of ran out of people

to talk to it's honestly the guest based we we started our podcast as a guest based show

Sure.

There's two issues.

Number one, there's only so many, especially back in the day, only so many interesting

internet personalities to talk to that were also willing to come into our studio out here.

And then there's some dynamic that happens when two people are interviewing one person.

Yeah.

And we were like, this is not.

Yeah, I've seen that kind of thing before.

Like a lot of other shows have multiple hosts, but there's like one main guy maybe.
