Surrounded, cornered, you might say, by the doctrinairs.

Tim Andrews is here.

Autumn Fisher is here.

George Clark is here. And, of course, Jared Yamamoto is here. We're going to get you. Yeah, you're coming at me. I'll let you do it. I got a flame thrower back here. I just want you guys to know. I wouldn't get too close to the host. I've already learned something today.

You know,

what you learned today? Are you interested to know what I learned today? I am very honest. Or are you just humoring me? No, no, no. I want to know. You learn something new every day. Autumn's listening. I have cashews. Yeah, don't eat on the air. You know how I feel about that. Come on. Oh, no. It tests well It does test well

People love to hear chewing on the air. You know how I feel about that. Come on. It tests well.

It does test well. People love to hear chewing on the air.

What I learned today was that jerks come in all...

A lot of varieties.

It's a... you think there's like one type of person or one or two types of people that become jerks.

But actually, it's, there's a variety of jerks on the planet.

I learned that today because as I was on the, the Beaufort connector, you know where the lanes merged together before you head on toward the 75, 85, you know.

And so it's one of those weird things where there's a couple of cars on the right. I'm on the left. I'm already in the lane that you need to be in ultimately, because that's the way I drive. If I know five miles from now, I've got to be in the left lane, I just get in the left lane. It's just the way that I am. So this is kind of one of those little things where there's a car a little bit in front of me. If I would have,

I wouldn't have been a jerk if I right immediately kind of hit the gas, gone past that person, would have given that person plenty of time to merge. But I didn't. And so I kind of like slowed down a little bit for a ways to, because I knew that car was going to merge in front of me. And there's another car behind that that was also behind me.

And as I'm making this decision, that car, which should have just slid in behind me,

not only speeds up at the last minute to slide in in front of me, which was bad enough.

I had a few words.
