antsmone George. Hi. Hi. Me and I smell go way back. So far back, you can't even believe I

can't even remember but first time we met. Just wee bebs. Yeah. So I call it way back. Yeah. My

accents are so good. So good. Antsmone is a. You know when they start I get way off track already,

but is it? I've always hated the word comedian. It's so weird. It's so weird. I'm going to start calling

myself. I'm going to take it back. She's a comedian. Started like a really really cool show in

Toronto. We'll get into it. But yeah. Thank you for being here. Thank you so much for having me. It's so great. So I'm
