Hello, everyone, welcome back to the Firecape cast. It's our second episode of

2024. I thought you're saying in general. It's been a lot more than that.

72. Episode 72, but episode 72. To be precise. It's a good amount. Coming up on a few years now.

Are you guys used to writing 2024 yet, typing 2024? I don't write date lines anymore. To typing. You don't write. Oh, yeah. Dan, you have, you broke, you had, what, you had an injury that we were there for. Yeah, he's not typing at all. Perhaps somebody on this podcast personally injured me maliciously and intentionally. Hey, Mike, do this. Mike, can you do this? Oh, I can't do it. They specifically asked me if I wanted this finger tape to it so I wasn't constantly flipping people off. And I said, no, leave it. And so now I've got this. That's the bit from Seinfeld. And George is driving the player to the PBS fundraiser. And then he gets cut off and thinks the guy flips him off. But he follows him to a gas station. He had a middle finger split. Oh, right. Yeah. Yeah, I got the got more x-rays tomorrow. We'll see how long I keep it on. Tell us what you told the doctor? Like what were the, I mean, there's patient doctor confidentiality, but it was very easy to talk to the doctor about it without bringing

it. Tell us what you told the doctor? Like, what were the, I mean, there's patient, doctor confidentiality. It was very easy to talk to the doctor about it without bringing it up. Like, I was just like, I fell and I braced myself. And, you know, like, that's all that's necessary. It's true. You didn't say you fell into a tub of cheese? No, I can't afford to look ridiculous. Into the tub of cheese.

During your video game live stream weekend where we expensed Popeyes.

It is, yeah.

I did that fucking seven plus, what I said, eight hour almost stream with a broken finger

without realizing it.

I didn't know until over two weeks.

I got a whole Christmas.

I flew to Kansas. I celebrated

with my family. I hosted a New Year's party, all that unknowingly broken finger. I'm just a tough man.

We had discussed the possibility of it because it was very swollen. And you said to me, Mary, do you think it's swollen?

And I said, if it is like not functional in two days, you got to go to a doctor. Because it was like twice the size of a finger. It was started turning like black. And it was very, very, uh, the knuckle. The knuckle is where it's broken. So like that's where all the swelling was and everything. So, uh, man. I remember when I bow, like everything hurt because both hands, when my knees got scraped up and bluddyed,

my elbows got scraped up and bloodied. My elbows got scraped up and bloodied. And my fingers on both hands. But like when, because Jake was just outside the door. And he just heard like, that was like me yelling and stuff. And he couldn't get in because the door was locked. So I had to like crawl to the door on my bathroom floor and unlock it.

And I remember the thing I was holding the most was my hand.

I remember.

So like that must have been my brain being like, hey, that's the part that's actually

super fucked up.

So, you know, they cater to that.

So.
