The But let me ask you this, Dan, in the meantime, you are in hell.

0:32.2

So who would be your roommate?

0:34.8

So if it's actually hell and the premise is I'm there for purposes of eternal

0:40.7

torment, it would be Pat Robertson, like no questions asked. Because like I have one, I have nothing

0:46.4

in common with the man, but also he's just, he is, he is the devil incarnate. Like if,

0:51.0

if the devil is real, he exists as Pat Robertson did on earth. So I don't, yeah,

0:55.0

Pat Robertson probably would be my pick for, uh, for this particular problem. Last week, we asked,

1:00.5

you are in hell and who is your roommate. I was excited to see what the answers of this

1:05.7

would be. And, uh, I think there's some pretty good ones here. So let's read our top three

1:09.8

answers from last week. Number three is from Mr. Colby the second, who says, my roommate is Eddie Van Halen and turned it up to 11. It would be 10 times better than listening to hymns all day and night in heaven, which is true. I mean, like, it seems like all the cool people do go to hell. I don't know. Do you agree with that, Richard, do you think that's... Yeah, I think it'd be more interesting having Steve Vey, though, because he did the guitar work for the film The Crossroad, which was all about the devil, someone selling the soul to the devil to become a great guitar player. So I'd personally choose Steve Vey over Eddie Van Hylen, but great answer. answer. You know, you always make deals with the devil.

1:44.4

Can we make deals with God? Is that a thing too? I don't know. Is there some sort of exchange that could be made? I don't know. That's for theologians to the side. But number two comes from Diana Bender, who says, I am in hell and my roommate is Mother Teresa. Ooh, that would be really bad to have Mother Teresa as a root.

1:43.9

She'd probably be very like, she'd probably just like, uh, curse you out if you did anything that she didn't like, you know, she'd probably like be really mad at stuff. I don't know, probably wouldn't be a fun time. Yeah, especially if you were ill, she'd just encourage you to embrace your suffering rather than giving your medicine.

2:17.9

That's a good point.

2:18.6

She saw you burning.

2:19.6

She's like, ah, you just need to embrace it.

2:21.8

It's like a good thing. And I would be like, no, that's not true. I need a tile at all, at least if I'm burning. Probably do more, but at least that. Number one comment, though, comes from R.C. Blazer who says,

2:16.7

Nobody tell God, but i am deathly

2:35.0
