week. But we're coming back next week. We sure are, and we're going to have an all new episode. Fresh, new, just for you. Yeah, it's like crisp sheets. Oh, right? Or like a warm baguette? Oh, right out of the oven. Right out of the oven. Mmm. Oh, so hungry. But we wouldn't leave you empty hand it this week. So we found the perfect episode from the archives just for you. One of the things I love about this episode, the amuse-bouge, I sometimes just randomly hear Nick saying this word throughout my day. Really? Yes. The word is great. It really captures a mood. It does. It does. Yes. And everybody should do it.

1:28.3

And what I also like about this episode is we talk about not liking bed and breakfasts.

1:34.5

And turns out still don't.

1:39.9

Still not into it.

1:41.1

It's nice to know, you know, something stay the same.

1:43.3

Yes.

1:43.7

I am remarkably consistent. I also do one of my favorites, which is we come to the vent to repent, and I do a, I'm doing my third option. Oh, sure. Leah is ignoring the rules. I am making the rules just a little different. Uh-huh. Okay. Okay. That's what we're going to say. That's our story.

2:20.2

No, well when our audience listens, they'll see why it was related. Oh, no, they'll take your side. Some people won't. Some people will be like, Leah, it's been or repent. Those are the rules. I don't make the rules. You do make the rules. That's true. I know. If only everybody followed them,

So please enjoy this episode and we'll be back next week. And it's only one more week. You will be fine. Yes, and that fresh warm baguette is coming. I can smell it now.

2:51.8
