0:03

0:07
nuts.

0:25
don't want to go back and forth about no
0:26
songs or nothing. I'm going to fire
0:28
myself today. I'm just going to just go
0:30
ahead. I'm
0:31
white towel. I'm good.

0:36
straight ahead on all of these all of
0:39
these things and I think he's done it at
0:41
such a high level for so long.
0:44
Um sometimes when you're doing it up
0:46
there for so long, you start to question
0:48
things for no reason. It's just in the
0:50
air.
0:50
>> Yeah.
0:51
>> And so,
0:52
um and to watch it when it happens in
0:54
certain times where it can be
0:56
two weeks removed and he'll just jump
0:58
back up and he just looks like that
1:00
unicorn again. I'm like,
1:02
oh, there he goes. I don't know where
1:03
you got it from, but yeah, keep going
1:05
back to that well and bringing that over
1:07
here. I'm going to rehire myself today.
1:09
Like let's go.

1:13
songs ready to go. Let's go.
