Welcome to Squire Radio.

And I'm John David.

J.D.

Hey, Bo. Good afternoon, man.

Man, a good afternoon to you, too, sir. How you doing today?

I'm doing better. I'm doing better. It always cheers me up to get on mic with you, man. It's been a heck of a week, but we're, man, we're doing well. And, you and I just giggling a little bit pre-show here, talking about some vintage arrested development episodes, which, you know, I've seen multiple times. I love the, you know, the original series, right?

Oh, yeah. Arrested Development came out. I don't know what channel it was on, but, you know, it came out. It was like the most underappreciated show for like three seasons. Oh, nobody watched. Right. No one watched it, you know, because no one really understood it. It was not publicized well, but it was just comic genius, right? And then they took it off the air, and then it got this kind of cult following to the point where they tried to bring it back, but it was just in this kind of cumbersome way that, I don't know, didn't really work for me anyway. But, man, some of those early episodes were great, Bo and I were laughing about this. Oh, man, quality stuff.

That show in particular, like, have I ever told you this? Like, that show, there was a time in my life where like that show was my family. Like before the show save you. Yeah. Well, no, like, it was just, all right. So like, my brothers got me on it. They were like, you need to watch this show. I was like, I don't need another show.

They're like, no, you need to watch it.

And then you'll understand.

And then I watched it.

And I was like, I don't need another show. They're like, no, you need to watch it and then you'll understand. And then I watched

it. And I was like, oh, this is us. Oh, no, like every single character has a corresponding member of like my family. It's crazy. And it's almost like beat for beat, like even like ages. So I'm the oldest, which means, you know, it's an illusion, Michael.

You know, I felt that way with the original office.

We're going to talk. oldest, which means, you know, it's an illusion, Michael.

You know, I felt that way with the original office, we're going to talk about tobacco at some point.

Yeah, yeah, we're going to pipe tobacco.

Yeah, yeah.

You know, I felt that way about the office first season in life.

Those first several seasons there, right as I got out of college and then, man, it was just balmed for my weary soul in the midst of young adulthood, trying to figure it out, coming home at the end of a long day and laughing at, you know, Jim, making fun of Dwight and just practical jokes and, you know, the boss being an idiot.

I can relate to so many things.
