Hey, welcome to the Xbox podcast. My name is Larry Herbexboxes, Major Nelson. You are here for a first.

Can we go to the wide shot? Here it is all in studio.

The first time ever this is this is actually you probably see us each week on the Xbox official Xbox podcast normally we post on Friday.

But Rebecca here, who usually is in New York City, had to come out here for business and Jeff and I and Rebecca in the team here. So let's all get together. So this is actually the very first time we've seen each other. You're much taller than I remember.

I know I look so short on camera.

I was hoping we could open the door to the studio so we can get some traffic noise coming in like a little bit in New York. Don't you miss that? Yeah, you know what I miss is you do not bring me a smoked meat sandwich of any sort. Corn beef a straw. I would not have been picky.

You know, I don't think those travel very well. So plain.

Yeah, the plane. I'm always next to that person who's got the tuna sandwich on the extra onions. What are you doing? Why are you looking at the plane? You need to you can't eat it 10 minutes before.

Sorry. You're looking at me, but like I've flown home with a Philly cheese stick in the car in the plane before.

This is the guy when we travel to especially I just remember Austin, Texas.

Got to get to the schlatsky jelly and he cuts it all and he brings it on board and then 10 minutes later he's.

The food at sea level is good. We all love food. We love good food.

You take that same food and you're at 35,000 feet and it is like 10X. It is like so much better. Like you just have everything's precious. Like when you're looking on a plane, they hand you this tiny little thing of dry pretzels and you're like, oh my god, this is great.

Like it and when you bring something good like that, it's I regret nothing. I apologize for nothing. You know, when you when you have a carbonated beverage, it's it reacts completely different.

Yeah, I do agree with you there. I normally don't drink soda, but there's nothing like a nice sprate on the plane though. So are you you're part of a sprite family?

Yeah, I don't know. Just drinking like dark sodas. I always feel like that's not health here. It's like, I don't know.

Right. It's got vitamin C's got lemon and lime avoiding. It's not now. Wait a minute. How are you on the McDonald's sprithing?

There's a whole there's a whole internet thing out there about how they apparently the inner this sprite at McDonald's restaurants is like on a completely separate level.

There's soda in general. So I've worked at McDonald's and in high school and college and let me tell you the hack.

Everyone talks about like in and out hacks. The hack that we used to do when I work there is you would get a either vanilla shake or just like the cream, like the vanilla ice cream.

And you do a spritz of orange soda in there. And it turns into like a cream sickle and it is the best. And like I would sit there on the drive through and just like sucking down like cream sickle shake and you know, I'm sure it's I thought you were definitely going to say like get a water cup.

And then put Sprite in it. Well, if you're like a self-serve, most of the McDonald's don't have self-serve. Where does this show? What do we do?
