| 0:14.0 | And welcome. |
| 0:17.5 | So the Gleeman of the Geek podcast here at Smalley's in downtown Minneapolis, and we've got... For now, that's what it's called. For now, for now, it's... Well, we'll see if there's whatever makes it to the air. I'm not sure between our current states of mine and the possible explicit tag that might end up on this, whether or not it's ever going to make it to the air. I said this should be gleaming in the geek after dark I like this is get real filthy |
| 0:40.1 | because uh we've been here since well it's what time 930 right now we've been here since |
| 0:45.3 | seven drinking beer yeah and two for one beers so uh yeah and so we've had a few so we should |
| 0:52.6 | say we're at smallies what is it called 87 called, 87 Club? And we are pimping. Yeah. The Lindsay Gensel MLB Fan Cave. Former guest, Lindsay Gensel. Right. Former special guest. Lindsay Gensel. They're all special guests. They're all special guests. They're all voting for Lindsay. We've got a pretty good crowd here. Lindsay's laughing |
| 1:13.0 | at us. She's looking far too sober. And I think we're going to get started with our Twitch |
| 1:20.4 | podcast because basically I don't want to see you on a Sunday or Monday night. I'm too busy on Sunday or Monday night. |
| 1:24.6 | Yeah, John, I feel like we're growing further apart, John. |
| 1:28.3 | I feel that. |
| 1:28.8 | I don't want to put it that way. Once you start, I will like to put it that way. Once you start saying, let's do this now so I don't have to see you on a Tuesday. It hurts, John. I'm not going to lie. It's a fair point you make. I'm not going to argue the point that that might not have been the best way to phrase it. |
| 1:45.7 | Let's also say we saw each other last night as well. Well, that's true, yeah. We've seen way too much of each other. Yeah. It's the bottom line. Sure. One could argue that pretty much every week that we see way too much each other. We sit around at a bar and talk twins for like an hour and a half every week. It's not the healthiest relationship in the world. Are you saying you'd like to see other people, John? Is that what you're telling me? This is going to be a very public, nasty breakup. This is a messy breakup. This is the one where we go after management together. Except management would be, I guess it would be me. I'm the one who publishes it. Yeah, your management. So I don't know what we're going to talk about. I guess, I mean, we left off last week we did sort of a hitter-by-hitter look at the roster. Correct. So we could do a picture-by-pitcher look at the roster. I think we can. We have some mail bank questions that are left over from last week that people submitted on Twitter, which we could get to. And then there are a few, you know, superstar big names here that we can interview. |
| 2:45.2 | Really? Yeah, there aren't. I don't know if you know that, John. We have some people we can interview. Superstar big names. |
| 2:52.7 | Let's pump them up a little so they feel good about it. Including. Let's just kick it off with a superstar big name. Yeah, we have. Is there a bigger name than the Supergirlfriend? Yeah, the famous, what episode? Do we know what episode that was? I have no idea what episode that was. You know what episode? Eight. Episode 8. The old school episodes. |
| 3:08.0 | Jesus Christ. One of these... |
| 3:10.2 | You take one of these you take one of |
| 3:10.8 | these let's bring me long time gleaming and the geek listeners will know from |
| 3:16.8 | episode eight supposedly that's what we heard some episodes Joe and Kate uh Joe is the |
| 3:21.3 | birthday boy and we did a mail bank episode right is that what we did with you guys? We did. And so there, technically, I guess Kate is technically our first repeat guest already. We also have, well, should we say who else is here? We also have Nick Nelson, who was a guest like. We got Lindsey Gensel in the house. we got Andrew in the house, we got... |
