Hello everybody.

I am a different, I am like in the dark today and you are in the light today, much like our personalities, but welcome to shaken and disturbed everyone.

I am Darren Karp, Mother God, here with, sorry, Father God, here with Mother God, John Thrasher, who's sipping his light. My light just went out. I was just going to be plugged in. Listen. Do you need to take a second while I talk to people? Yeah, maybe. I got to learn. Go ahead. And hold on. If you're watching on Patreon or on YouTube, I have a. Figured it out. Oh, Darren got it just instantly.

Sorry, I really didn't want you guys to hear from John. So I just wanted to play off. I wanted to give them the time. But then I was like, I just didn't want to hear from John. But go ahead, John. Well, I was going to say, I got a little iced tea here. And look at this pretty straw that I got at Starbucks. Isn't it nice? It's one of those like reusable ones so you don't have to keep killing all the turtles.

Right, which is. pretty straw that I got at Starbucks. Isn't it nice? It's one of those like reusable ones so you don't

have to keep killing all the turtles. Right, which is 100% factually correct. But isn't it annoying

like washing the straw every time? Well, I have several so I don't use my lights out again.

Take a second. What is going on with your light though you know like what

is happening um i have several just to answer your question while you figure that out i have several

and i just throw them in the dishwasher they're like really good quality they're not like the flimsy

straws so like so far so good although i don't know i don't really love

putting plastic in a dishwasher because it gets so hot and then the plastic melts a little bit so

but it hasn't happened with these straws so oh there we go darren's got some light going

you know last week i will see the like. Oh yeah,

that looks great. Oh, wow. You look even better. Yeah. You look good. What can I say?

I'm scared. Plugged in my light. Who knew that you needed to plug in something that was a chartered?

I'm learning things every day. You're learning. You know, last week we fixed our audio settings.

Yeah, we did it Joe, as Darren was laughing about on our NMR episode. And this week we got our lighting figured out. Darren, you're in New York again, right? Or still. I'm in New York and that's where my mic is a little bit off this week. So no complaints. But yes, my lighting was a little bit off. But thank um, thank God, Nadine has this like kind of,

like a, like a close up mirror, but the light around it's kind of like a ring light. So I set it up and it's got, it's brilliant.

It's just that we've been recording now for an hour and John is just, frankly, um, annoying.

And so it's John's fault.

Listen to her NMR to understand how annoying John is when trying to explain anything
