0:30.1	Thanks for checking it out.
0:33.5	We are back for another episode of the world famous bathroom break.
0:37.3	I'm here with Daniel Murray, who's the ultimate marketing millennial. I'm Jay Schwettleson from Do This, Not That podcast. So Daniel, before you're going, I want to talk to you about your weekend plans. So Allie goes on a girl's trip every weekend. So she just left on her girl's trip. So I'm riding solo this weekend.

Oh, I would never do that. Because I, if my kid cries out, I'm the type of parent who I'm out.
1:45.8	I'm not going to yell at my kid, but I'm going outside and just soothing him to make sure he's okay.
1:52.1	I remember the first time we took our son to dinner for the first time of you all.

1:58.0	We left and we didn't try it again for like a year.
2:08.0	Screw that. Well, this is probably going to happen to us. So tune in next week to see that we're never going to go to another restaurant again. All right. Well, since you are tuned in,
