You're just pouring out there right now. Oh, I know. I drove over here, John. You've been sitting there. Well, we got woken up at 7 o'clock by a clap of thunder and lightning that sounded like literally I was afraid it was our tree. Yeah, I got woken up around the same time by a clap of angry cat. So similar. The, I say this every time we do a show before noon, I think. Uh-huh. Is this the earliest show we've ever done? 9 a.m.? |
| 1:11.4 | Maybe. |
| 1:12.3 | I don't know. |
| 1:12.6 | I feel like we've gone out that breakfast a couple of years. |
| 1:14.7 | Yeah. |
| 1:14.8 | Well, we've tried to do like a brunch one. |
| 1:16.9 | I remember doing one at muddy waters. Yeah. But I don't think that was 10. 39. I've lost the ability to sleep in, in part because, you know, I'm... |

She's sleeping right now, literally on the floor. Yeah, and also, a girlfriend gets up early to go to actual job. And that kind of, I'm a good sleeper, but once I'm awake, that's it. So like, I don't wake up in the middle of night, but once I'm a good sleeper, but once I'm awake, that's it. So, like, I don't wake up in the middle of the night, but once I'm rustled, is that the right? Yeah, I can, uh, I think you must. I actually, I actually wake up in the middle of the night fairly regularly, and then fall back to sleep. And then in the mornings, I can usually bounce back into back into the slumberland. |
| 2:18.8 | I also like can't sleep on planes. I can't. I'm very, I'm a delicate flowers. I want to start since it's Saturday morning though, talking about Friday night. So what did you do last night? Watch the world. Because you told me, and did you watch it out or did you watch it in? Well, yeah. I was wondering if you would go to the game. |
