You're sick. Good calls. I'm sick. I got sick over New Year's Eve. I got the flu in Vegas. Ugh. The flu in Vegas was a... You gambled. I gambled. It was a living nightmare. That is not a place you want to be the flu. That's the place you want to... I've had it in Vegas. There? Yeah, because remember when I did the show where I met Caton, we shot it in Vegas. And I mean, I remember, like, having to try to be... It wasn't even... It was trying to find the healthy ingredients that the flu requires. And you were, people are just like, do you want a Sunny D? Yeah, well, there was also like, they're like, do you want to just party? Ugh. I was. So when did you start feeling it? So we flew in. I was feeling fine. And then the problem with when you get sick, at least for me, is the beginning of it.

Yeah, there's something. So I was, I was feeling pretty beat up. But, you know, I've been grinding pretty hard this fall. And I grind myself pretty down. I'm like, you know, I'm on break mode. I'm with the family. Maybe I'm just shutting down. Maybe the old machine's shutting down. That's why I'm sweating in weird times. The sweats. Oh, and then really what got me was, so first of all, staying at the Venetian, which it's funny to be at a certain age where I go to the same hotel in Vegas. I stay in the same area, the north suites. I've been there, so I know where all the restaurants are. Gareth, I love it. I know. I can just tell you love it. I love it. It's a great hotel. Are you knowing some of the people? Are you like, Rudolph? Are you on that level yet? No. I think that will happen. It could. I predict that that will happen with you. That you'll have a couple guys. Yeah. Yeah. That would be a dream. Berg a'll send Berg a text and go, go to Rudy's. He talked to my guy Hank. Oh, he's wonderful. He's wonderful. I can see this. That's my dream. You're putting them on a group text. Well, that's so funny. That's how you got me on New Girl. I don't know if you even remember that. No, tell me.
