All right, show for time can officially begin.

Episode number, Who Cares?

It's Klein and Allie in the room solo. We decided to rush down the hall quickly and try to get this episode done before Jake realizes what we're up to. Klein came in and was like, hey, we could start now and we'll have like at least 10 minutes without Jake. So this is an opportunity. I was like I'm coming. Ali and I just catch up, touch base. thanks for checking out the show and the bonus show that goes with it. He's been especially not funny lately. Have you noticed that? Yes. There's a message I haven't played on the goat line yet. And sometimes I think he edits the calls about him because he doesn't want them on the air. But there's one where someone basically claimed, can we go back to when Jake was on the verge of losing his job? Because that was...

He was way funnier when he was miserable. Right, way funnier. Now he's, and for some reason, he feels the need to yell stuff from the background. And there's been a couple wins over the years. Jake Shaq. Beams was a win. Yeah, like the Super Bowl thing happened today, and I'm like, why are we doing this?

Super Bowl makes no sense.

No.

No.

It's like some weird sort of unfunny Tourette's he has. And I don't know if that's a medical condition or what that is. I don't know. Maybe now that he's happier, he's like not, like, you know how the funniest moments can happen out of the hardest truths?

Tragedy equals comedy.

Yeah, like even Catherine O'Hara just talks about, like, some of her, you know, the way that she would create characters.

And she was like, every person is just trying to get through it.

Like, every character is just trying to get through life.

And they have these problems and they're manifesting in certain

ways but it all comes from pain. You're right. That is the greatest fuel and I think that that is what

fuels us. It's pain. Yeah, yeah. But I mean, I am a happy person I think as happy as I can be,

but I think Jake, he was, he was so he he was getting into a

point where he was like happy sad right it was like funny sad and then he wasn't a place where he

was like sad sad sad sad that was funny yeah that was hilarious because we would shit on him

and then he'd be really sad about it.

Yeah, that's where he'd get really angry and run to the pawn shop.

But anyway, now he's all happy and whatnot, so he's being less funny. So sorry, our apologies to you guys for that. Yeah, sorry about that. We'll work on it. I think we just need to have a few things go wrong for Jake, which will happen eventually. Oh, I'm sure.

You know what he used to do is start having sex again, and then he can start not having sex again and realize how bad it is. You know, like he's just kind of coasting. Something has to change. Right. Like we have to take a bat to his car slash tires or get him a girlfriend to dump him. I think he'll do that himself, though. I feel like he's a calamity in the making. All right, we'll just wait.
