0:00.0 | Talk about Tivo next week. Sorry John. We're never talking about Tivo. |
0:06.0 | So we're in the midst of talking about what to do about shirts for this year. |
0:10.0 | We've been talking about it the three of us for a couple of weeks now. Ding and I really like it. |
0:16.0 | Yeah, I really like it. And we haven't really come up with any brilliant ideas in terms of design. |
0:20.9 | We don't want to just kind of phone it in and do |
0:25.5 | regurgitation of a prior design. But you know, if there are listeners that would like shirts, |
0:31.6 | we want to fulfill that need. So we're in the midst of a debate over what to do. |

1:17.3 | Maybe like Mug? Is there other stuff that's not shirts? |
1:19.8 | Polo shirts. So and my position is very strong that I think we should have an original design every time |
1:26.6 | we do these things. Because we don't want to like, I learned forever ago from Howard Stern, |
1:34.9 | actually, we learned a lot from him. He had a thing he was kind of criticizing somebody else. |
1:40.0 | I think I might have been Rush Limbaugh. Some other talk show host for constantly |
1:45.0 | nickel-ing-diaming the audience for just selling them all sorts of garbage with his name on it |
