TVTL on your phone. What's your favorite show? TVTL. Can we please do TVTL?

Yep, we can do TVTL. TVTL.

Guess what day it is? Guess what day it is. It's Friday. Friday. Gotta get down on Friday.

Everybody's looking forward to the weekend. It's good, you know? I mean sure I'm depressed and constantly sick and nothing really brings me joy but it just feels right.

I'll never forget my old dad. When these things would happen to him, the things he'd say to me. What did he say?

What the hell are you doing in the bathroom, day and night? Why don't you get out of there and give someone else a chance?

The story of this situation is it's extremely personal. Oh, I know this. This violates every can I'm a respectable broadcast.

Alright, hello. Good morning and welcome everyone to a Friday edition of TVTL The Show that just might be too beautiful to live.

My name is Luke Burbank. I am your host.

I will sense I and I was so that comb is real. It tastes good.

Coming to you from the sauna of solitude here in Seattle, Washington, aka Andrews, finally appointed home studio.

Oh, Ma, Pa, it's just beautiful. We are gonna have a great, great show. It's a special occasion when Andrew and I get to be in the same room together.

This is special. This is special. That's what's happening right here on episode 3,748 in a collector series.

Let the fun begin. Something else special happened this week. The HBO show Hard Knox has returned.

And this year it focuses on the Detroit Lions football team. And of course their coach, a guy named Dan Campbell has come up many times on this program for deploying these sorts of gems during press conferences.

When you knock it down, we're gonna get up and on the way up we're gonna buy the kneecap off. All right. And we're gonna stand up and then it's gonna take two more shots to knock us down.

Police in multiple jurisdictions by researching for Dan Campbell. Cause that's assault. Well, it was just described there. It's pretty clearly assault. Anyway, of course a lot of this hard knock season is gonna revolve around Dan Campbell isms and boy he did not disappoint on episode number one.

So we're gonna play you that audio plus I've got a got a beef with the writing on hard knocks, which again will come as no surprise to regular listeners of the show. I'll play you that audio as well. Also, you know, we have a PO box.

And you mail us stuff and we really appreciate it. And then we Andrew goes and picks up the deliveries and do some delivery.

And brings them back here to the sauna of solitude. Can you time trying to make that a thing today? And we're gonna open some of those items. We're gonna play another round of what's in the box. Andrew just without comment. Just handed me an exacto blade.

I'm not sure actually utility knife, whatever you might call this before the show and just didn't really clarify what it was for. And I thought, okay, I guess we finally gotten to the monkey knife fight portion of Tbtls existence. We're gonna fight to the death. But no, it's for opening the boxes so we can play what's in the box coming up. Plus music for your weekend on this Friday.

And speaking of my friend Andrew, he is the longest running co-bro of the show, maybe best known for his depictions of the tall ships sitting right across this table for me.
