0:44.1

No, I can't imagine what would happen. Just dead silence for first like, like, hey, welcome to the show.

0:50.2

I guess this is just there's no host at all. It's just two dudes talking about whatever.

0:54.8

How terribly disappointing would that be? Yeah, anyway, host. Do you have a corny joke for us?

1:01.2

Well, you know, Jay, I have a fear of speed bumps, but I'm slowly getting over it.

1:06.2

Also, I have a fear of elevators, but I've started taking steps to avoid it. So.

1:15.2

Oh my gosh. Let me tell you at my at the church, but then I go to scary elevator.

1:20.7

No scary elevators scary speed bumps. Really? Oh my gosh.

1:24.7

The scariest. Okay. So I think one of the most common things if you are like the lead person, the head, the general manager of your church or whatever is that you have to deal with the most the tiniest.

1:36.7

What's the right word for this? The tiniest of complaints, the like a like a speed bump size complaint. Yeah, like a speed bump size the petiest of

1:45.1

Oh, I see. Okay. That's the word I'm looking for is I think I think this is just part of the job. And to me, I've always been I tried to avoid stuff like having complaints like this, but boys my complaint about the speed bumps.

1:57.1

2:10.1

Right, right, like the like the little concrete brick that lays in front of a parking spot so you don't pull forward. Yeah, it's not a it's it is so much more than a bump and I hate them. And I don't even feel like it makes you safer because what people everyone hates them. So they just try and drive around them.

2:26.1

When possible, which seems less safe to me. Let's it plus I think it slows traffic down so much that it gives more people time to get in the way. Oh, interesting.

2:37.1

My this is my thing because the thing is your at church. Everyone's already on their best behavior. Oh, okay. Yeah, you know what I mean? That's a thing. That's how many like how many people need to be hitting a church parking lot before you.

2:49.1

This is taking a weird turn. Yeah. Anyway, no, anyway, I don't like the speed bumps there. It's so funny that you bring up speed bumps specifically. Well, I guess I brought them up in a sense, but you've had an experience with them because outside of our house, we have this.
