0:13.0

Just, uh, I'll get it to tell you. Just a perfect, just a whole need. Just absolutely perfect syntax. Hey, guess what? It's our hundredth episode of the distraction. This is my goodness gracious.

0:23.0

Unbelievable. Happy anniversary. Happy anniversary.

0:26.0

Happy anniversary, raw? Happy anniversary to you. I have not celebrated many hundredth anniversaries in my life.

0:32.0

Yeah, I don't know what. I haven't done a hundred other things except like P. Like, I had, there's, there's very few things that I've done a hundred times.

0:38.0

I've, I've napped a hundred times, which is very impressive. Right. I feel like that's a, and you do get some sort of award for that, right?

1:25.0

It was a gap. It was an old gap. Was it an old gap? All right, because it had kind of like, it was a little design for a place that also had no insulation and bad internet connection.

1:35.0

Yeah, it absolutely looked like an abandoned retail space. But Drew was sacked out white tube socks just glowing like a beacon of, uh, fatherly energy.

1:44.0

And wisdom on the right. So before I actually saw your face in real life, I saw the weird bottoms of your feet while you were giving your back arrest.

2:29.0

I don't know too much. You guys are good. So I don't have to do it too often.
