Yep, good morning cap. Good morning, my good friend Merlin. Uh, I'm sorry. I'm late. No, I was late. I rescheduled. It's. No, I was better late though. I knew you're going to be late and I still was late. Not a problem. Should we go live? Do you care?

I care about everything. Dan. That's my problem.

That's a good topic. I'll go live then. I the thing is I'm always live, Dan. Okay. Should I do should I hit the live button then?

I don't know. I mean, that's that's that's a decision. You have I just did it. All right. You know, A always BB broadcasting live. B L. I'm going to tweet it to a BBL.

See, I know this is awesome. I didn't know we're going to do it for the kids. I'm really glad you're doing this. Hi kids. Hi, not kids. I'm sorry, not kids. You're nerds.

The reason I'm late though, it's my own fault. What's the spiritual reason I might I don't know if I told you this, but I've undertaken it daily. She's Danish practice.

Full of booty. I think you are having one of these the last time we're talking. Yeah. You know what it is. I go through. Um, you can't tell the meeting, right?

Not at all. Not at all. I go through I go through phases. I go through phrases. Um, I'm frequently eating at the beginning of a year. Nice today.

But so because I'm usually late for a while when I was doing that video series. I would eat an apple galette every day.

Hmm. Those sounded really, really gross when I ate them near the mic. These are these are pretty dry though. This isn't as bad.

I should go. I'll go. I'll go to the left for next time.

You're going to need to drink something after this. All right. Hang on.

Productivity. So you've been busy. You've been busy, Dan Benjamin. What are you doing today? It's been a busy day.

I had a lot of shows that wound up all having to get done today. But really, you're going out of town. You're going to New Zealand.

So what we're doing right now is we're recording this show. You mean going out of town. It's Tuesday. I'm in New Zealand.

Hmm. We're recording this show early. People who are tuning in live will they'll hear it. But the show actually will most people will be hearing this on Tuesday of next week.

I will have evacuated that Danish by three days ago. Specifically. Five days ago. That's right.

It's time. So oh my gosh. I'm probably already done pooping. Wait a minute. Let me do the math on this. That's the Gourney Weaver.

No, it's Graham. Glad we're doing this. I'm glad we're doing this, Dan Benjamin.

We're breaking. We're already exceeding the expectations of most of the world because everybody was saying, well Merlin, so I'm going to do the three.

And this is the four. Okay. So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so be. I'm really cool about like letting you always, you know,

spend things your way and make yourself look good. But a tell them tell them how it's went down. Give them given the chronology.
