Do you hear that hiss?

Yes, I hear the hiss.

All right. I'm not a magician. Are you like a... Tell me your Rolls-Roy story. Let's go. Come on. It's not even that good of a story. I'm so angry right now. Oh, you don't even need the outline because it's there on the screen. Yeah. That's pretty good. Yeah, we actually have a monitor set up because we're going to interview somebody later.

Mm-hmm. I'm so angry right now. Oh, you don't even need the outline because it's there on the screen. Yeah. That's pretty good. Yeah, we actually have a monitor set up because we're going to interview somebody later.

And I can see the outline just by looking at the monitor. Yep. Cool. How's it going? You're not in a good mood. Talk to me. No.

For multiple fronts, I'm not in a good mood.

We, we, the, we, your, your co-host and the collective audience are here for you.

Yeah, the latest one. Tell us. From multiple fronts, I'm not in a good mood. We, we, your co-host and the collective audience are here for you.

Yeah, the latest one is just trying to set this stuff up in this dungeon that we call a recording studio.

And we're just not, we have all the equipment.

I just like we shouldn't have a hiss right now.

Right. Yeah. And we shouldn't

have to have our microphones half an inch away for them to pick us up. Yeah. But we do. Yeah. And it

didn't used to be. Like, no, we've always had to have our mouths really close to the microphones.

No. Like if you watch the, um, if you watch the video podcast that the, the Charles Barrel

society guys recorded when we recorded in your old bedroom. We could be two inches. if you watch the video podcast that the Charles Barrel Society guys

Yeah recorded when we recorded in your old we could be two inches away no we were I was like leaning back I was like probably a foot away or six inches away

I swear I have a hard time believing that that's okay I wish there was some way to I guess we'll just never know I guess we'll never know yeah

I guess I was there some way to to access video that exists forever yeah I can't think of any right now

can upload videos yeah that's a good idea call it YouTube that's a really good idea

yeah so you're okay so you're not having a good time right now. Not really. No? Sorry, dude. And I just had a hard time with the outline today. Like, there's just not, unless we're going to talk about Trump because he just dominates the news, which I don't want to spend all, all podcast talking about him, then it's like, I don't know. Yeah. I mean, even you, even you and I were sitting upstairs, not talking at the table. I noticed it. Was that Trump's fault? I was, no, I was sitting there thinking, are we, are we growing apart? I would just sit in there thinking, we don't have anything to talk about on the podcast or in real life. I think, I think we're done. Has our friendship run its course?
