Hello?

Hi, John.

Hi, Merlin.

Oh.

How are you?

Oh, somebody's got a case of the Mondays.

Oh, no, is that your case?

Yeah, it's me. I'm the one with the case of the Mondays.

You?

Yeah. Huh. The case of the Mondays. Are some Mondays worse than others? Or are they all worse than others? Some Monday's mothers are worse than other. Other Mondays Mondays. See, I was explaining, I shouldn't say this. I can't break the bit. but I was explaining to somebody how there was a time for some 12, 13, 14 years on this show, we're part of the, I'm talking about the show on the show, and I don't like to do that. I know you do. I know. I haven't done that in years. I know, I know. I think part of the conception of the show is that, and that we both kind of agree to

silently, is that John doesn't know anything about certain aspects of the world, in part,

because he does not have a TV, does not have access to a TV, and also John just is not following

the discourse. Do you understand? Like, I think that's something, I don something. I don't have to agree that that's what we did.

But, like, now increasingly, now you just quoted a line from a band that I can't imagine

you like, just because I'm broken inside and I'm a little touchy about the Smiths.

But also, you actually knew the line from the song.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I think it's the last track on the album, and you knew it.

It does that weird little fade out at the beginning.

Now, was that genetic?

Was that sense memory?

Was that a, was that one of those Oprah memories that you block?

And then Robin Williams helps you remember it.
