Sam, can I tell you one thing before I go?

Sure.

That was the best interview I've had in years.

Oh, nice.

Nice.

Thank you.

That was just really fair-minded.

I really appreciate it.

That was really good.

I just want to know what you think, so I tried to get there.

Not everybody does want to know.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Take care, Doug.

All right.

Thank you. Take care, Doug. All right.

Do you remember when people used to talk about, oh, 2016. It's been such a bad year. I can't wait for it to be over. You know, the meme, like the cartoon is like 2016, you know, 2015 ends, and it's like, yay, 2016 is here, and then 2016 arrives, and it's like, axe in the back, and then like, oh, God. And then 2017 is like, ax with a mace.

And then, finally, and then it seems like that literally has come true. It's just every year has been worse. Yeah. Yeah. And little did we know what was coming. I think arguably 2020 was the nadir. I think, you know, the pandemic year was definitely like that. That was a pretty rough year for everybody. But, You know, the Biden years, unless you lived in Gaza, we're actually not so bad. But everything is now just back to the shit now, you know.

So what are we talking about this week, Daniel? I'm sure it's a really nice person with excellent, well-developed, and reasonable opinions. Well, we were talking about two people today, ironically, both of which we have discussed

at some length before, but it's like a, it's like a mega-group, you know, it's like the

super group.

They get together, two great tastes that taste terrible together.
