That's BetterHelp, H-E you have landed in the middle of somewhere. Hello.

How are you? Thank you for coming back across from me in his FC Cincinnati

bandwagon sweatshirt. As always, is Cyrus Amundsen. I got to stop falling asleep to

documentaries about dictators. Sure. I've been watching a series called the, by the way, there's drywall being put up in my house.

I don't know if you hear that.

That's what's, I feel like you, the amount of times that we've been recording and there's work happening in and around you and just

to see the tension on your face, that's what I'm feeling. But I basically have to, I feel I'm

stumbling early because I have had a tense morning. It's not just that. Well, let me tell you,

first of all, let me just tell you why I get so tense.

It's because sometimes my neighbors will be like, hey, what do you have going on today?

And I go, I just have to record a podcast.

And then they go out to a flea market and buy a gas powered lawnmower that doesn't have the little handle that when you release it shuts off.

And then they go put it

right outside my window and just let the fucking thing run. So that is where I'm coming from.

And I can understand that. And let me tell you where I'm coming from. Yeah. I fell asleep to an

episode of The Dictators Playbook and had a nightmare. This is, this is outrageous.

You were, I was in like, you know, in North Korea where you see all the guys marching,

like for the Kim Jong, eel or Un whoever's in charge at that point because they're they're like

a generational dictatorship. Yeah, you're born into it. Yep. And so the like I'm in one of those

marching lines where like I'm in uniform and I'm marching with all the people. I think just, just to be clear, in North Korea, I don't think you'd stand out.
