| 0:23.3 | No, so we have a hatmaker. Is that what you call yourself? A professional hatmaker. Would you call yourself a mad hatter or just a regular? |
| 0:34.3 | That's like over everyone. Everyone's like, I'm the mad hatter. Oh, is that a thing? It's like a thing. Yeah. Okay. Every dude, his mom's like, I'm like the Mad Hatter. And I'm like, yeah.
