Hey. Hi. I have an episode for you today. You have an episode for me? Bad story

idea is taking over the entire episode of intentionally blank. Okay. Because I was interviewing

Joe Abercrombie. Okay. And during the interview, a bad story, you can actually watch the video of this.

We have it on our channel.

A bad story idea came to me mid-conversation.

And I started to talk about it and realized, this is a terrible place to start talking about a bad story idea, I'm going to save

this for intentionally blank and then cut off the idea mid-sentence.

Okay.

The bad story idea is if a Hollywood hack is writing the story of the founding of America as a prequel to America already existing.

Which cliches would they write in and how would they write a terrible version of the founding of America?

Okay.

Right?

Some hack is like, all right, America exists.

There's this guy on the dollar bill. We got to figure out what his story is and who he is. And, you know, how his hair got like that? And, you know, who is this guy? They're like, oh, his name's George Washington. He's like, well, how do you get that name? They're like, he says, family. No, no, no.

We got to come up with a way

that George Washington

is called Washington.

It's, How do you get that name? They're like, he says, family. No, no, no. We got to come up with a way that George Washington is called Washington.

It's got to happen.

You know, he's washing clothes and like, who's that guy that's washing a ton of clothes?

No idea.
