So every once in a while on this show I like to amuse myself by looking at some of the

0:06.4

commentary the two places that are the most interesting is the comments on the public feed which when we actually were public were pretty much universally very good and now that we've taken it to Dunstan Prime it's usually more casuals of the show who are reviewing it and there are a lot of these.

Whoa, they don't like our favorite guy or my favorite, which is they make all these statements

0:30.0

and they never go back and look at him again and they never change their minds.

I'm like, yeah, you really just don't get the show because we hold ourselves accountable,
