I don't sleep because sleep is the cousin of death and also because my daughter won't

let me.

It's the 21st of February 2022 and it is time for another edition of your favorite podcast morning combat.

Hi, everyone.

My name is Luke Thomas.

I am merely one half of your hosting duo based out here in Washington, D.C.

the capital of Los Estados Unidos.

I am joined by the boss of Connecticut, who's got the world's strongest back.

He's my friend in yours.

It's Brian Campbell.

Hello, Brian Campbell.

Luke, if people only knew of the melancholy and infinite sadness, it took to get me into

this chair this morning because, yes, at 43, I've broken my back spinal, I haven't seen

the doctor yet, but I'm sure he'll say I need to back you out of me.

Luke, is there anything more disarming in life than losing your mobility on the toilet?

I mean, really, I mean, Elvis lost it all on the toilet.

I respect that, by the way, you know, at 42, though.

At 43, I mean, you stand up, you know, and you're already standing, Luke, people already

know your preference personally, right?

It's more of a Southeast Asian-based preference, which, you know, lines up with your birth,

but Luke, yeah, wow, cut all, you know, can we get the, yeah, all right.

So I'll, I'll hang in here as long as I can.
