Hello and welcome to yet another episode of the lines led by

Donkeys podcast with me today is returning champion Francis Horton

hosts the hell of the way to die podcast how you doing Francis oh it, I know that you said that this is going to be coming out well after the Winter War

series so it's going to be a while, but Joe and I are both two weeks deep on dry January or drynuary and so this is a sober

after sober evening podcast this is weird I'm sitting here with like a

bottle of water and like I'm not my head isn't swimming slightly so it's a

weird feeling for me. I have a blackberry flavored sparkling water and I have to say seeing how I came up with this

podcast while solidly shit-faced with Nick.

It's been jarring for him who is not taking part in dry January because he's over there getting torn up and

He's solidly always like four to five beers deep when we record

So having me over here with like a pile of notes and completely sober which I have to point out that's made for much better episodes

and easier research but yeah it's it's weird that not only is there a

presidential debate on which we're both ignoring because I don't need any help

hating like the world that we live in right now but we were both sober at the same time which means I definitely cannot handle a presidential debate.

You know, I, I, my podcast is you know, political, but I'm glad that it's not so political that people

expect me to live tweet a debate and be mad about stuff. It's like, look, guys, vote Sanders, that's it. That's's all I've got I don't have anything else for you.

That's that's my politics all the rest of them I don't give a fuck they all suck Sanders sucks

the leads so there you go.

You want me to sit down and like

slowly have my brains leak out of my ears

while I watch Wolf Blitzer like try to try to

trick these guys into you know being horny for war no I don't need that
