Hello.

0:36.5

What's going on?

1:50.5

Let's get it started. Yeah. High energy. No, it was. It was. It was high energy 30 seconds ago. And then there was a five second. We just had a lull. Now it's back. Yeah. It's been, I've been doing car shuffle for like five days. Like it's, we're going to go straight into white people problems, and this is deep into white people problems. All my cars are getting something done, all of them. At one point, I had no car. Six cars here. At one point, like two days ago, I had nothing to drive. Ah, but you always have a scooter. I do have a scooter, except for the fact that I had to go to San Diego. So, you know, we end up and dumber. Yeah, right? Yeah, Hannah would love that. So we took Hannah's Volvo to San Diego, and God, that Volvo V-60 is just the best on the road. It's fucking great. Great road trip car. Radar cruise controls the best. V6 and that, I can't recall. In line 6, transverse twin turbo. So under-tuned. So, yeah. So horseshit under, like, my dad has one. And I was like, what's the horsepower? And he's like, well, I got the pole star chips. It was like 242. And I was like, no, like no no no the pool start tune is 345 don't know that's the full no that yeah that's what you get with the tune the little square on the yeah yeah 345 horse i thought he bought his two years ago i thought it was a little

1:56.5

like they give you a 10 horsepower bump no it's like, I think it's 25 or 30 over the...

2:01.3

Okay. Like, does he have a T5 or a T6? T6. Yeah, the T6 with the pole star tune is 345 horsepower. The blue one that we had, the full pole star, is an extra 10 above that. Because that is Olin's shocks. Yeah, that's got 3.55. And I took Canna's car in the canyons. There's a big difference between her car and the one with the Olands and stockpotting, in the canyons anyway. The handling of that car we had was remarkable. Yeah, yeah. Her car is like a nice car with some power. The handling of the blue, of the real pole star one was nuts. Yeah. But for somebody that's not actually going to go take into the canes i bet you hers is probably a lot more comfortable um on the street you know the the blue one on the street road fine like we didn't we didn't drive it and go oh this is too stiff i don't remember that anyway i think it was good it was pretty good i mean i think if you're on a lot of expansion joints it would have yeah no a little bit. Yeah, no, for Hannah going to work and back, it's better. But the dampening's great, so the ride's really good. Yeah. And also, the blue one was a lot more expensive. It was like 63 grand, and Hannah was like 51. I want to, I guess the weirdest shit happened to me this morning not even to me so Hannah her cat

3:10.2

She has two cats and one of her cats Axel is probably the coolest cat I've ever met even cooler than Conrad

3:16.6

Conrad's an amazing cat but Axel is even better cat and but he has as had asthma and he'd have these fucking like asthma, asthma attacks, like, once a day, which is really sad for a cat, but, like, otherwise healthy, all right? So it seemed like the asthma attacks were getting worse. So we took Axel to the vet this morning, and we, we, like, they do these x-ray, and it like longer than they were like yeah the x-rays

3:41.1

it'll be five minutes you know we just need a baseline before we start giving a medication

3:44.6

the best news at a hospital always takes the longest right so the doctors come back in

3:49.5

says the man with two doctors in the family right so yeah so the vet comes back in with the

3:54.5

digital x-rays on an iPad and and he goes, so we've never seen

4:01.4

this before, which is a great sign.

4:03.8

You fucking, and immediately, you know, Hannah's...

4:06.2

4:07.5

Immediately, lightly emotional would be to put it mildly.

4:12.0
