I was muted. Hello. Hello, Meena. Look, it's happening right now. Meena, do you feel it?

Do you feel it to swelling in your soul? It's happening right now. The thing that you

me and Pablo talked about doing while we were taping highly questionable, the years from

now, we can be together just doing a show where we're screwing around. It's happening.

Look at it. You're in the middle of it. Is this like the end of Shawshank when they're

on the beach? Is that what's going on in your mind right now?

That's what's happening right now. It's the sequel to Shawshank. I have come out through

episode that I want to try and do with Dan once a week where we get to sit down with

our friends and have conversations that are only kind of vaguely structured, but are

about stories of interest that we are all individually like obsessed with in a given

week, whether it's sports, whether it's non sports, whether it's inevitably gazing

into our navels, our nostalgic emotional navels about how we don't do this enough. So yes,

Mina, Dan and me are on what feels like a teetering dinghy towards high-minded content.

Come on, it's a cigarette boat. Let's go. Let's go. We got some star power around here enough,
