Hey, Jeff.

Hey, Eric.

How are you?

I'm pretty good.

How are you?

Doing well, thank you.

Regardless of how good we make this podcast, as professionals, we try to make it seem each week. Yeah, there's no way that it's ever going to be like a radio station. Well, no, because this is actually recorded in our New York City apartment on the Upper West Side. Right. Ebro is not here. You're going to hear sirens a lot.

There's countless episodes when they were doing construction. apartment on the Upper West Side. So, Ebro is not here. You're going to hear sirens a lot.

There's countless episodes when they were doing construction outside and you would hear drilling.

I'm pretty sure the Nadeska episode is gunshots filled with with drilling. Never until today.

I'm trying to wait for it in the background. No, people heard it.

But every few seconds, if you listen closely, you can hear one of two giant macaws, right?

Like big parrots, essentially, that you find in the rainforest outside of our apartment, screaming. I don't know why i know who they belong to they

belong to our super romone yes who is leaving at the end of the month he has worked here as long as

we've been here yeah he's worked here for 30 years uh we have not lived here for 30 years but he

has been here for 30 years yeah he came into our apartment one time we were were watching Jimmy Fallon. Mm-hmm. By the, Macaw is going crazy. It is. Um, and Ramon came in. He goes, Danny DeVito's one funny motherfucker. This is true. Every now and then, Ramon would come and fix things. A lot more often, he would just be here to converse, tell us stories, hang out, avoid other

people who needed their bathrooms, you know, tiles fixed or their leaky faucets to stop leaking.

He would tell us how he hated the people on the top floor.

He told us about the people who used to fuck on the rooftop of the other building.

He told us about the guy who hung himself and how, you know, we were like, oh my God, I'm so sorry to hear that. And he was like, no, no, no, I got a free couch out of it. Yeah, that's Ramon. Yeah. We wanted to get Ramon on the podcast at one point just to tell whatever ridiculous stories he has. He's got a lot of good stories. Yeah. But I guess that's, I mean, maybe we'll make that happen. Yeah,

I mean, he's only working like a few blocks away. Yeah. Anyway, so if you hear, is it over? No, I mean, the bird's not dead. No, no, no. I know the bird's not dead. It's, you know, five o'clock, maybe the bird just

clocked out.
