Hey, everybody, welcome to Ask Me Anything. And guys, I'm not going to lie. This is the best episode we've ever made. This is it. The one we've all been waiting for, J.D., the question everyone's been asking, and that no one is sure if there's even an answer for. What in the world is the deal with you and Nicholas Kitch?

0:37.0

You know, surprisingly, if I had to list the top three questions, I get asked anywhere

0:42.2

from anybody who's listening to me from any length of time, they always ask this one.

0:46.9
