| 0:19.5 | Sure. |
| 0:19.8 | I'm Peter Matthew Bauer, the middle name thing. It's |
| 0:23.2 | on my records years ago and can't get rid of it. I kind of like having a middle name thing. It makes |
| 0:28.3 | you seem timeless. Serial killer, kind of, yeah. Serial killer or just a bit more iconic, |
| 0:33.9 | I think. If I was David Andrew Farrier, it would be more memorable than David. I think it's more timeless. It feels way more old-timey, which I think fits your vibe too. Thanks. Thanks. Yeah. And a positive. You know what it really hit me the wrong way was when Billy Corgan put a solo record out with his middle name is. And I was like, oh man, like, I started feeling I'm really about about it.'s really, he put a middle name in. Yeah, it's like William. Incredible. Andrew Corgan or something. But it's William Corrigan. I saw Billy Corgan. He came to New Zealand and did he was, what was the solo album? The Future Embrace. And I went along and he was, he's a Buzzy dude. Chicago guy. Is he Chicago guy? Do we like Billy Corgan or is he too much? |
| 1:12.7 | When he retired from music, he's a buzzy dude. Chicago guy. Is he Chicago guy? Do we like Billy Corgan or is he too much? When he retired from music, he started a wrestling, like an amateur wrestling. He loves his wrestling. Yeah.

| 1:41.6 | And so this is a family recipe. I know her mother made it, I believe her |
| 1:46.4 | grandma made it too. It smells fucking amazing. It's really good. Sometimes you get into those |
| 1:51.6 | things and you're like, there's some weird things in a casserole. I'm not like a that well-versed, |
| 1:57.4 | but this one is like actually just, it's all business. Yeah, I feel like casseroles are a controversial dish because it's kind of like there's an element of like slop to a casserole. Yes. And you're like, what's in there? What am I getting? Right. Very hash brown centric, which I feel is a very American thing. Yeah. Yeah, this is, it's hash browns and I'm not supposed to give it away the rest of you probably. But there's like there's cheese. |
| 2:18.7 | There's corn flakes. |
