Hi, everybody.

Welcome to the cold open of this episode of SmartList.

I'm freezing.

You know, it'd be great if our net was here to warm this cold open up a little bit.

I don't think he's available.

No, he's not available.

We should just start.

Let's just start.

Oh, God, look at all these goosies on my arm.

Welcome to Smartless. Smart.

Guess what I just finished watching moments ago?

A pizza pocket heat up in the microwave.

Oh, wait.

Now, let me try.

Yeah.

I wish. No, it's something with Scotty. I don't have it yet. Your zipper on your pants, not be able to close. Oh, wait, I know what it is. It's the top button on your trousers flying across the room and breaking a light bulb. No, I just watched the first, literally 10 minutes ago, finished watching DTF St. Louis, the first episode. Let me tell you, it is so good. It is a ride up my alley. Is it? And Jay, another incredible character by you. Oh, thanks. Like, really, like, so different. Really quick question. Did you say it's a ride up your alley? It's a ride up your alley. It's right up your alley. He's been saying it wrong for years, Will. Don't stop him now. No, it's right up my alley. The way it's shot and, of course, performed. You're brilliant. It's so good, Jay. You're so good in it. Riter director. I mean, that's swing, just the shot of the swing, that's all I'll say. Yeah, yeah. I mean, that's so smart. It's so cool. It gets real, real, real, real crazy. Yeah, and the ending of the first episode, wow. It's really good. Thank you for watching that, you sweet, man. It's so good. You're so good. Do you, I don't know if I've ever admitted this on this show before,

but speaking of saying things wrong for years yeah oh shit and this is i'll attribute this to

not reading a lot you know i'm allergic to books and i'm not proud of that yeah um because i feel if

had i seen this written i wouldn't have made the mistake all these years.

But I've always thought that when you say the phrase, I'm just trying to make ends meet.

I thought that was a phrase that one would say when they're saying, listen, I'm just trying to get by with just the bare minimum.

I'm not being greedy.
