This is one good gumball.

Still flavorful.

You know?

Hey.

Welcome to Best of Friends podcast.

I'm Aaron Mallory Long.

And I'm Jamie. Just Doing My Best, Woodham.

Are you?

Are you doing your best?

Debatable.

Very debatable.

I will say, I'm just trying to be doing my best.

You're trying to start maybe be doing your best. I am very close to being in a place to begin the process of doing my best.

Oh, good. That's a great spot. Put that on a shirt. Yeah, that's a good, that's a good motivational poster right there. Put that up in the store. Put that on a shirt. Put that on a shirt put that on a shirt that's my new

catchphrase oh my god is that it's like a real 80s family sitcom yeah no it put that on a shirt

it's for sure that coming soon into free form oh my god erin yes how you doing I'm okay. How are you? Your boy's been better. Oh, my God. What is happening? What's going on with you? Oh, nothing. Oh, boy. We still got this whole hostage thing on our hands. Oh, my God. I wish this would come to a close already, you know? My too. Me too. I really wish it would come to a close. I think we just need some more people to rate a review podcast on iTunes. Yep. Then maybe our masked captor will let us go. I'm never reading the reviews again, personally. Yeah, I saw you made that mistake. So I did make that mistake. I didn't like it. I glanced at them, but I was kind of just like, I looked at them and I was like, oh, well, they're wrong. Like, I don't know. I saw, I will say, like, obviously it's that thing of like, you only pick up on the negative things and I'm scrolling past like a lot of positive ones that I was

ignoring. Yeah. Yeah. You know like because I'm like that's great. I don't need to like hear what

you like. Yeah. I'm definitely no fan of like. I need to hear why you think I'm a terrible person.

I'm definitely no fan of like internet bullying and like when people say mean things to me Or like about my work on the internet Yeah for some reason I looked at those I was just like I think maybe because it's like a collective thing Like when someone says something about something that just I do Yeah Then I'm like oh no maybe they're right But like with the podcast I saw it and I was like Oh well you're I mean you're obviously wrong like thousands of people enjoy it and we have fun doing it so I guess maybe you're

the non funny person well and I think also my thing is like I can't imagine listening to a podcast

that I didn't like and then being like I have to make sure no one else listens to this. True, true.
