Hello, and welcome to a bonus episode. I think this is going to be a bonus episode of the

Lines that by Donkey's podcast, clearly a professional outlet that has things scheduled.

I'm Joe, and with me today is Katie. I was going to call you the host, but that's not accurate.

The writer of war takes. I'm the war takes guy. I'm the war going here to take all your war.

Yeah, please. As someone sitting in Armenia right now, please, you can have it. Please take it.

Sorry, we're at capacity. You're going to have to come back another time when we have more room in the war tanks.

You need a war strategic reserve. Just like a big one, those big, like what they use for grain silos, which

fall down like like a actual grain silo catch fire if you so much as sneeze next to it and explode.

As someone who grew up in a city, that was probably one of the weirdest things that someone I learned,

I think was in basic training or something. When someone was from Nebraska or whatever, like, oh yeah,

corn will just explode. I was like, bullshit. That's not how corn works.

No, I'm with you. And we both like grew up in the Midwest. I'm what I learned that grain like corn could

just explode and store it and just like, that's not true. It's just food. Food doesn't blow up.

Yeah. I have to say this episode is very weird for me because it is a normal hour where I am.

Normally I record in the morning. It is like 5 p.m. here, 5.30. I actually get to have a beer while I'm

recording. I actually stopped by my corner store to get beer just so I could have a beer while I'm

recording because normally I'm recording at 5.30 a.m. I was going to say like I'm recording with the

rare. It has not just woken up and it's not 5 o'clock in the morning, joke is saving. I feel like I

got a rare Pokemon card. I know. It's I kind of forget what it's like to talk into this mic and

not fucking want to go to bed. What are you drinking? I am drinking co-tike gold. It's a local beer here.

I got it for the princely sum of I believe 400 drum, which is a dollar. Actually, I think it's

slightly less than a dollar at the moment. Inflation is kicking the drums ass.
