This fauna is making me queasy.

Hold on, I gotta run real quick.

Where are you going?

We have a podcast to do.

You can't just leave?

Patrick.

Folks, Patrick just bailed on me and ascended the stairs to his home in Florida.

And now I'm just talking to an empty room filled with blankets and shelves.

Welcome to The Crunch, episode 35. It's your boy Ethan, aka.

And I'm Patrick at Catholic Pat.

We are doing this podcast.

We're not messing it up this time.

This is take five.

It is 11.30 at night.

Isn't it 12.30 at night your time?

Yeah.

Dude, it is super late. We are recording because Patrick, uh, is being difficult. He's ruined, he's ruined, you're ruining the podcast. I'm

on the road all day tomorrow. So while you're listening to this, I'm listening to podcasts,

probably the crunch because I'm narcissistic. But yeah So, there it is. To be fair, I listen to the podcast sometimes to like, to take a note. I don't listen to the whole way through, but I'll listen to some parts that I was like, oh, did I say that right? And then I'll check and make sure that I said it right. And then I'll go, okay, that's good.

I'm glad that I said it that way.

Or if I didn't say it the right way, I'll go, ah, dumb, Ethan. Don't say it that way anymore. And my friends make fun of me for it. I usually go back and listen because when you say good things, I'm not paying attention because I'm thinking of the next thing that I have to say or want to say.

Yeah.
