Hello Austin.

It is lovely to see you all. It'd have to see that with the stool, but if it's in my rider, if there's a stool on the stage I freak out.

Welcome to Love It or Leave It live from the Paramount Theater

here in Austin, Texas. I've been here for 26 hours and as is my custom I've only eaten two meals

so fucked up.

I had some Tex-Max. And some Tex-Max. And barbecue. It's, uh, see, I don't want to tell you.

I've done this before, you know, here's, there was one of the proudest moments in my life and I

was in the room when President Obama signed Obama care.

One of the proudest moments in my life was when we did the show in Austin and we were

ranking the briskets blind and I realize not only could I rank them I could identify

where they were from

But that was years ago.

I don't think I have the I don't I don't I haven't kept up the skill

But I will say I'm realizing that basically

It's as if like you know there's Tex-Mex and there's barbecue and like it's like

one's a liquid and one's a solid. But anyway, I'm not going to eat again until May.

This week on the show, the Sklar Brothers put their identical dukes up. Comedian and former substitute teacher,

Jule Nicole Johnson, goes for the gold star.

Zach Zucker is back and you won't believe who he's willing to have sex with.

And Tim Miller is Big Simpen.

Plus, we'll end with a Texas right of passage ranting incoherently.

Lastly, we're doing our high notes live tonight, so think of something great to share with us.
