Des is very excited about the prompt today.

That's all I can say, and come on this is this is a topic that I love

You know I don't want everyone to be like this is such a des topic because I actually thought of it

I actually thought of it just so you know but you have a roll the tapes

I said we should do something about nostalgia you said do something nostalgic yeah

and okay so we it was it collaborative a collaborative process and I think it was it was definitely a very strong response from the dialers

well the question was, the prompt was before.

By the way, we're recording at 8 p.m. tonight and

Hannah has been out with her friends and I'm feeling a lack of focus here from

the young burner. It was what do you miss about the world before smartphones?
