And the Hello, welcome to the Purple Insider episode where I do a Matthew Collar impression and Matthew Collar is at a courthouse. My name is Sam

Ekstrom filling in while Matthew joins us where are you exactly, Matthew Coller?

Yeah, I am in the Hennepin County courthouse,

not because of anything that I did,

but as I previously mentioned,

I got called in for jury duty,

and it turns out that jury duty is kind of a big deal.

I was hoping that I would sort of show up

and then I would tell them that I'm a celebrity who has to be other places here and you know has to

cover a Kevin O'Connell press conference and they would be like oh wait dude you are a podcaster, please go.

This is not for you.

The law, people's lives at stake, no, no, no,

your show is way more important, so you go.

And no, instead it doesn't exactly work that way.

So I'm on a lunch break right now

and waiting to go back upstairs and then be led

into the courtroom, debriefed by a judge, all these like things that are law and

ordery are what I'm actually going to be doing. So I'm not 100% sure how this is

going to play out how this case if I get selected to be on the jury is going to go, what type of time commitment that's going to be, you know, I will still do the show, obviously, but I might have to actually miss Kevin O'Connell's press conference if that I'm selected for this jury and have to be, you know, like deciding someone's fate, as opposed to, you know, being there.

So it might be just you and then we talk about it later.

I'm not going to be away from the show.

It's not like they're sequestering me but it's already quite an experience.
