I'm sitting here in my 2003 Chevy Impala badass car right now.

And I'm thinking to myself how awesome it is to have people like Jack, the operator,

and can't to remind me that whatever the world says, there's people like me out there.

And I really appreciate you guys adding just humanity to what I say, to new media, right?

Because we see a lot of like fake shit and you guys are just real people.

And I love it and keep dealing with what you're doing.

Not that you need to fucking tell you that, but keep it up dude.

We do need people to tell us that.

Yeah, because that's a huge compliment. Huge. Huge. And it matters.

It fuels us like when you get something like that, it puts you, puts your butt back in your seat

and you finish the edit kind of thing rather than going on a walk and wondering what you've done with your life.

You can be what he's talking about is being able to listen to something that isn't just

making sure that they tow the line of what is okay and just following along

with whatever is supposed to be like and having flaws as a person and having opinions

and being a real person and not just some fucking puppet that's dancing on the end of a string,

whether it's, and all those true crime podcasts by major like Wondery, you know, are like that.

Every one of them.

And it's getting less and less.

Even our conversation about running ads seems pretty genuine.

And I don't know anything about any of their products. And when I say they have this new,

I'm literally reading from a script that they sent me in an email.
