Hi, this is Rachel McElroy. Hey, this is Griffin McElroy. And this is wonderful. Oh, my goodness, everybody. Oh, my freaking gosh. Hello. Hello.

0:29.0

Did you see how many donors we did? How many big ones we got for Max Fund Drive? It seems like a lot. It was so many freaking people. I was blown away. I rocked my socks off, man. Can I provide an update? Uh-huh.

0:42.0

Sitting in my new chair. Rachel sitting in her new chair. This is not a thing that money has bought. Well, money did buy it, but it was brother money. It was not Max Fund Drive money.

0:51.0

Well, I would like to think that Justin MacHara wouldn't have been as inspired without the Max Fund Drive. Yeah. Now, don't be ashamed to say it on the air just in case Justin does listen to it. It's a piece of shit chair. And it doesn't feel as good as my $15 target chair that I bought you. Because and let me finish mine had more love in it in behind the act of buying it. And don't make a face. I wasn't doing bad things to the chair.

1:17.0

Unless it's opposite day. Is it opposite day? No, it is April Fool's Day. So it could be like I'm doing a prank on you, but it's not because I love that chair. The chair is very comfortable that I'm sitting in right now. And which one just so I'm clear which one are you sitting in? The one your brother bought me.

1:32.0

Oh, shoot. I'm sorry. But the one I got you still very, very good though. Right? Maybe you'll switch them in and out as like you're going to see what your tush feels like and then swap them as needed. I mean, maybe I'll get a hanker in who knows.

1:46.0

Yeah. Well, yeah, just think about I guess the love that went into it. And my my small wonder is just keeping old friends, I guess.

1:56.0

Okay. It's keeping old friends near and near and close to your brother.

2:01.0

I mean, you still got that brother printer. That's true. But I bought that with my own dang money. And.

2:06.0

And I've got brother chair. You have brother chair. I guess that's true. But like my love chair is sitting in the corner right now.

2:13.0

It's like we've left a chair for Elijah open for our podcast in case he wants to jump on the mic and make some good observational jokes.

2:20.0

Yeah. My real small wonder is jeans that make your butt look good. And I mean that I guess the use sense and the me sense jeans that make your butt look good is very good.

2:30.0

But jeans that make my butt look good. I feel very good about. And I just put on some some new jeans. I tried on all my jeans from

from stitch fix and honestly throughout history because I need to get rid of some jeans and a lot of them are ill fitting. But this one tried on. I was like, what's up?

2:46.0

Caboose.

2:59.0

It's like, big and B2 low and then they can be way too high and give you that long or too wide. And then it's like, how do they even walk with a but hole like that?

3:18.0

Okay, so I have a perfect small wonder and this is actually brought to you by Linda. My mom. Linda. What's up, Linda? Have you heard about the baseball player who plays Baby Shark? Is there a walkout song? That's extremely powerful.

3:31.0

Elvis andress of the Texas Rangers. That name again one more time. Elvis andress. I'm loving every freaking part of this story.

3:39.0

On the opening day, he played his new walkup song, which is Baby Shark. And he had three hits, including a two run home run. Wow, that's like the best thing you can do.

3:53.0
