My dad gave me the best advice ever. He goes, just give it a shot. But if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. It would not be...

Right, it wouldn't be that. There's a lot of luck. Listen to Thanks, Dad, on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

This guy's... 2 a.m.

Lizzie McGuire. And I'm like... Wild. A wild batch you were with. It was like a first closet moment from me where I was like... You're like, I don't feel like she's hot. Like the rest of them. No, no, no. I was like, she's beautiful. But I'm appreciating her in a different way than these boys are.

I'm not like... But listen to Los Coleristas on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or whatever you get your podcast. Best Bits of the Week. It's listener Q& Daytime. Where Morgan and a show member answer almost all your questions. It is time for some listener questions and Mike D and I answer. Okay. How does that sound, Mike?

Good. That's how a Q&A works. We're starting with a shout-out from Diego from Arizona. He said, you two are my favorite. Shout out. And shout out to Arizona. I love Arizona. It's your favorite place, your favorite state.

Yeah, it's like one of my, I just love the heat. Do you think you'll ever move out there one day? I could live it. Like, if I was, like, retired in 70, I could live in Arizona. Like, I see the people who just spend, like, the off season there. I'm like, that's the life. That's where you'll go instead of, like, Florida. Yeah, I would go to Arizona.

I would melt there. You love that place. How are your teeth doing after having the braces off? This is from Melissa in Indiana. They're great. Like, I've been really good about wearing my retainer. I kind of love my retainer. Yeah?

I call it, like, putting in my teeth at night. That's funny. Like your dentures? Yeah, like, I've got to put my tufer in. Oh, good. And you're happy? Life's good. I am really happy with the decision not to get the implant and getting the bridge. Okay. Because the overall process was easier. The thing I was like a little weirded out by by how much they ended up shaving off of my teeth, I actually put it in there.

Like I thought it was going to be a little bit, a little more dramatic than I thought. But that was way easier to do than I think the process of putting an implant in there. like recovery time was like nothing and I didn't have to have like multiple visits. So do you now have one of those? Because you know how sometimes there's this guy and I can't remember his name on TikTok but he has like his front tooth. I guess something happened to it and he'll just like pop it out on a live. Can you do that?

No, like mine's I asked about that. Mine's like cemented in there. Really? So I can't pop it out and pop it back in. Well that's cool though. You don't have to worry about like eating food and a tooth just comes out. Yeah. That's what I was worried about.

I was like, how, like, careful do I have to be? Like, could I, by accident, like, pop it out? They're like, no, it's, like, submitted in there. Okay, so you'd have to, like, do some damage. Because they, like, put that cement on there and then, like, force it on there, hold it for a while, and then it settles. So, like, even, like, two hours after I got it, I couldn't drink anything, because I guess it was still, I don't know, forming, hardening or whatever.

So I wouldn't want to try to pop it out. Yeah, okay. Well, that's good. That it never happens. But now you don't have a party trick, so I'm very sorry. How much money do you think you've spent going to the movies, Renee and Washington? I have Regal Unlimited, which is the chain we have here, and I spend under $30 a month to go unlimited. That's crazy.

But so, a year, 30 times 12 is what? I hate math. I'm not going to try and do it. Was that 300? I'm just going to get my phone. It hurts my brain to even see numbers, if I'm being honest. 30 times. Well, 30 times.

Oh, yeah. 12 times. times three. Wait, 12 times. 30 a month. 360, yeah. So $360 a year.

Yeah. But how long did it take you to figure that out before? We've got that. I believe they started it in 2020. I want to say 2023. Maybe 2022,

because it was probably like when they were trying to bounce back from a pandemic type thing. But I mean, if you go to two movies, it pays for itself. Sometimes I go to, I mean,

most times I go to, two movies in a weekend, sometimes multiple in a day. So I really get my money's worth out of it. Does it only count for you or does it count for you and your wife? We each have to have one. Okay. So we buy the tickets together and just use each of our membership. So it's a lot cheaper. And then you get discounts on like, not an ad by the way, but you get discounts on snacks and stuff. So I haven't paid for popcorn in four or five months. I just, I keep racking up free ones because I keep paying for tickets. Well, that's awesome. Yeah. Okay. That's. That's awesome. Yeah. Okay. That's a cool way to do it and but also add to that your subscription to other services to watch yeah that's all i

think i have every service right now really which is i well i did cancel crunchy roll which was my anime streaming because i i didn't watch it as much like in the last two months i haven't touched it i was like i could probably do without that one i ended up signing up for like a month of paramount so i've been watching old episodes of sponge bob and i still have peacock which last year i don't know if they're doing it again this year, they had a Black Friday sale where I got a year of Peacock for like less than $5 a month, which was awesome. You know, I'm be honest. I didn't even think about subscription services with Black Friday. That is a great, if anybody does a Black Friday deal on subscriptions, it is so good because you can pay very little to get it for a whole year.

It's so true too, but you know what's also wild that I've noticed is we're going back to cable style because I saw Apple TV and it might be Paramount or it's Peacock. It's one of the peas. I hate getting on and it's like watch HBO Max on. I'm like, what's the point? Literally. But you have to have the subscription to be able to watch it on there. It's like it sneakily knows, but they all are partnering up with each other.

Like you have Disney with Hulu. I hate that. I hate the Disney Hulu merger the most because Disney Plus's interface is my worst interface. It's so hard to find things. I love Hulu's and now it's going to Disney and I hate it. because I think Hulu has one of the best interfaces, and moving that over to Disney Plus is going to be so confusing and so cluttered.

It is. And I just paid for my whole year of Disney. Back when I first got it, it was like $70 for a year. It's gone up so much. Well, hey, you know what? Shout out to you because you have made me spend however much I spent any year on Disney

because you were the original person who got me a Disney subscription. I got that subscription day one when it went live. Yeah. And it was the best Christmas game because I still use it. But like obviously now I'm paying for it. But that first year, man, that was a great Christmas gift you got me in the exchange.

I think that's a gift people don't think about. A year of streaming services is amazing. No, it's a great gift. So if you're looking for gift ideas, please give it to somebody. For like those people who it's hard to buy for and you want to get them something practical that they're going to use a year of a streaming service. Well, and because now, listen, so I've been, my family and I, we all share. So like some of us buy something and other, we kind of cross reference because there's so many. and everybody wants everything, right?

Well, I just got kicked off of the Netflix, and I was not happy about it. I was so not happy, because my parents and my sister are all going to be on it because they're in the same area code or something. Yeah, that happened to me a couple years ago. And it's funny, it's because I worked around it for a while, and I was thinking, okay, they'll leave me alone

because I got around it. But one day, I logged in there, it kicked me right out. And I'm like, this is not cool. And I had to buy Netflix for the first time ever. And then it's still funny, because I'm still paying for the other ones and my family used to see the other ones. I was like, this is crap.

And then whenever you sign up for one, you feel the need to watch everything, you're like, I'm paying for this. I got to watch every single thing on this streaming service. No, very much so. I'm like, what new releases does each one have?

Because I'm watching all of them. What did you think of Tron Aries? This is from Chandler and Callie. Fun fact, I protested this movie. I didn't want to see it. Why? I don't like Jared Leto. Oh, okay, okay. I was like, Tron.

I love Tron. Why did you protest this? He is what I believe to be like a tainted actor as far as if you put him in a franchise he's going to kill it and that's what he with tron that movie came out and they're saying now we're not making any more tron movies okay wait so where did this start with him with everything he is it ever said suicide squad him as a joker i'm like that's it i don't think he's a good actor and i think if there's a movie that's coming out and they cast your leto it's going to be a bad movie why do you think that is i think him is a person probably

I don't think he's the easiest to work with. Even in the filming of the Tron movie, he had everybody refer to him as his character's name and not Jared Leto. I feel like he takes it to an extreme to the point where it's detrimental to the movie. And I almost feel like if somebody, if he gets cast, he's not the first choice.

But he is somebody who is famous, recognizable, can still get people to go to the theater, but I don't think he delivers as far as making good movies. That's fair. That's a fair take. And so he's on that method acting side, but like very extreme. But I don't think he has the body of work to warrant being so method. Like if you're doing that and you're doing like a Christian Bale type performance or a Daniel

Day Lewis, like you get a pass there because you are using the method acting and getting a great result. If you're doing it and you just come off as a jerk to everybody, like in the Suicide Squad, everybody hated him. He was like male like dead rats and like crap to people. Yeah, I remember what this. get into like the mind of the Joker and embody that and then he was on screen for like seven minutes in that movie and destroyed that character yeah that's a fair take and i guess i've you know i'm not watching enough movies i've never thought about it but it's hard because i loved

tron i loved the original movie that they did uh gosh i don't know how many years ago and then i liked the remake i liked like that just the entire idea and concept of the movie and so i was really excited to see tron airies too especially after writing the ride i did Disney. Because the ride of Disney is super cool and you feel like you're part of Tron. And then we went and watched it. And I did like the movie because again, I like Tron so much. But to your point, Jared Lettel wasn't like, I wasn't blown away by what he was doing. You know what I mean? But he has a huge part of this one. And I also think we're like very, I mean, obviously we're in like a remake era right now. But I think it's very focused on like these legacy movies from the 80s coming out right now that I just feel like Tron is the weakest of those. Yeah, it's fair I mean, I don't I don't feel like the OG ever got the Recognition it deserved

It was groundbreaking for the time And like as far as like when it comes to sci-fi movies Like that's a pillar of the 80s But I think him killing the franchise now It's like time for it to go Like maybe they could do a series Yeah Such a bummer though

Because I love that concept Like the idea of a video game And there's like this other side to it It's so cool That's like my I eat up that sci-fi world You know, because Ready Player 1 is my favorite movie. So I eat that up and I love drawn.

Such a bummer. This one's from Alyssa in Illinois. She's wrote this a few times, so I figured I'll finally answer it for. What style of UFOs are your favorite, true to size? Do you have any UFOs? No. I feel like you would love those. I'm more of a Crocs guy for recovery shoe.

Really? Yeah. That's funny. You like Brooks shoes for running. Yeah, Brooks. And I've also started trying out some Adidas. Okay. I love Adidas.

Which they have some really, like, comfy ones. Like, I like the Brooks for the stability. Like, I feel like on my longer runs, like, those are my go-toes just because, like, I feel like I worry about, like, twisting something or, like, falling weird. And those keep me, like, fully supported. Okay. I like this seat. We got shoe reviews happening here. But then, like, the Adidas I've been trying, I think they're, like, the SLVOs or something.

They're really cushiony. And I like that. Love a pillowy cushion under your foot. That's what Ufo's are. They're like a pillowy cushion. They're meant to a lot of athletes using for recovery and for if you have like planar fasciitis. They're great for that. I only wear it.

Every time I get home from work, I'll take off my shoes, put them on. I have like my home slippers that are UFOs. And I feel so good, especially after a night of wearing heels. You know how amazing it is? I dream about coming home and putting on my clothes. That's how I feel about my crocs after my long run on Sunday. I put those on. I wear them all day.

See? Okay. So you can do crocs. The style of UFOs that are my favorite, I have two. I wear the, like, slip-on sandals, like, little, they're like normal slip-on. So they have a different name. Slides? Yeah, thank you.

I knew there was something else. They have a slides that I really love. And then they also have some fuzzy, not slippers. They're, like, covers. They're, like, fuzzy shoes that kind of look like tennis shoes, but they're fuzzy. I have a different mental image of fuzzy. I mean, describe those. Like my blanket right now.

My fuzzy blanket. I like fuzzy socks. I'm thinking like fuzzy dice. I'm like, interesting. Oh, my, no. No, fuzzy blanket, fuzzy socks. Things like that. Those are my two favorite. Okay, we're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back. There's two golden rules that any man should live by. Rule one, never mess with a country girl. You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes. And rule two, never mess with her friends either. We always say that trust your girlfriends. I'm Anna Sinfield. And in this new season of The Girlfriends,

Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck. I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target.

He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the Girlfriends. Trust me, babe. On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. What's up, everyone? I'm Ego Wadam. My next guest, you know from Step Brothers Anchorman, Saturday Night Live, and the Big Money Players Network.

It's Will Ferrell. Woo. Woo! My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with them one day, and I was like, and Dad, I think I want to really give this a shot. I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place they come. Look for up and coming talent.

He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you. Which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration.

It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah. It would not be... Right, it wouldn't be that. There's a lot of luck. Listen to Thanks, Dad, on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. In 2023, former bachelor star Clayton Eckerd found himself at the center of a paternity scandal.

The family court hearings that followed revealed glaring inconsistencies in her story. This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth. You doctored this particular test twice in so-ins, correct? I doctored the test ones. It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case. I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for. Sunlight's the greatest disinfected. They would uncover a disturbing pattern.

Two more men who'd been through the same thing. Greg, a lesbian, Michael Marantini. My mind was blown. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trap. Laura, Scottsdale Police.

On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hope Bryant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here? We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught. Financial education is not always about, like, I'm going to get rich. That's great.

It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family. If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear more.

Will Ferrell's Big Money Players and IHeart Podcast presents soccer moms. So I'm Leanne. This is my best friend Janet. And we have been joined at the Hipsons High School. Absolutely.

Now a redacted amount of years later We're still joined at the hip Just a little bit bigger hips Wider This is a podcast we're recording it as we tailgate Our youth soccer games In the back of my Honda Odyssey With all the snacks and drink

Sidebar Why did you get hard seltzer instead of beer Oh they had a bogo Well then you got it Do you want a white color or something here? Just take it What are y'all doing? Microphones? Are you making a rap album?

I would Come on I would buy it Cut through the defense like a hot knife through sponge cake. That sounds delicious. Oh, you're lucky I'm not a drug addict. You're lucky I'm not an alcoholic.

You're lucky I'm not a killer. I love this team and I'm really trying to be a figure in their lives that they can rely on. Oh. Listen to soccer moms on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Lisa wants to know, did you and your wife, Kelsey, buy a house? Are you buying a house? What's happening there? We are going to have to move because we're still renting, and they let us know that the person who owns the house is probably going to sell it.

So we're going to move. I don't think we're ready to buy yet, although we've been looking, and it's like, not bad right now. Yeah, I think it's ever good. But it's definitely still not great. You're kind of just in middle right now. So it's kind of a reevaluate at the start of the year and see how things are looking. but we're definitely going to have to move next year. Okay.

Would you guys move to rent another house or would you rent an apartment? Probably another house. We've been looking at some other places in our area and we're like, man, we kind of want to move right now. Different options? Yeah. Because you guys have been there since. Yeah, I've been there since 2018. Like, this is the longest I've ever lived in one place for a while.

It's nice to rent a house too because you get the experience of living in a house versus having to run out an apartment or a condo. So. Yeah, I don't think I could go back to an apartment unless it was like downtown, like where you get that kind of vibe of a bit. But aside from that, I don't think I could go back to that. Okay. Well, hey, some movement could be happening. 2026 could be a good year. She really wants a fenced-in backyard so we can get a dog.

Well, you're lucky I have that on my ass. My from Louisiana, what is the latest update on having a dog or a cat? That is the update. If we move into a place with a fence, we will get the dog. But will you also get a cat? Because you had told me you wanted a cat. Probably just the dog. I really want the cat.

The closest thing we have to having a cat is there are some strays that come around every now and then. Yeah. I like to feed them. Have you not tried to scoop one up? No, because they're usually, I mean, a city cat is, like, hardcore. Like, they know what they want. Like, we were, this cat would come for a while and we, like, bought it food. Like, my wife started to, like, enjoy the cat.

Because she would come and she wouldn't get scared. She would come and, like, hang out eat. eat and then leave. She didn't want to be tamed. She didn't do that. She just came for the food, chilled for a little bit, and then goes about her business.

I will say, most feral cats, they cannot be tamed. If you try, you're going to get an eye clout out. But there are some that act like they want to be in. And sometimes if you can, like, keep getting friendly with them,

sometimes they would like a life inside. Just saying, then you just, you know, there was never a big decision. It was just kind of a cat that was already around. Yeah, that's what I did as a kid at the trailer park. We would have cats that would come around. I would do the same thing. I'd feed them.

And then, like, my favorite ones, I got, like, my parents a little bit more comfortable around them. And then I started bringing them in the house. And they were like, all right. See, this is what you got to do with your wife. Then you can have a dog and a cat. You know how much fun it is to have a dog and a cat? It's pretty fun. It looks fun.

They're pretty entertaining. They keep me plenty busy. So I think I still vote that you guys have both. And you can eat the cat now. Oh, yeah. I would love the cat now. You're getting there. You're warming or up to it. I like this. Okay, so 2026. We're looking for some big changes. What is your favorite Thanksgiving side dish for both of you, Alyssa and Illinois? My favorite is probably just mashed potatoes, but I don't really eat them anymore.

You don't? No. Why haven't you? Oh, is it because of you? I mean, a lot of it, to make them good, you need butter. So it's like, it's not really the same having them. Okay. Okay, but hear me out. I've learned. Because I've learned. Because I've tried a whole lot of substitutions and tried different things. There's a really good vegan butter. I've tried it. Don't like it? It just doesn't feel like the same thing to me. Like vegan butter, I got anything in the dairy world when it comes to vegan stuff is hard for me.

Like there's some cheese that I do like vegan. Like cashew cheese is good. Yeah. See, there's been a lot of substitutions I've found. And I was like you because, you know, I'm like a dairy fiend. And I thought I'd never eat any of it. But this, maybe, I don't know if it's the same brand that you tried, because I know there's a few different ones,

but I'm telling you this, butter that I bought, it was like the exact same. Like, my wife will use it to bake stuff, and I feel like for that it's good. But I was never really big on just putting butter on just random things. Like, I'm just not a fan of, like, butter. But you could put butter to bake mashed potatoes. Yeah?

And you wouldn't know. That's true. You know what I mean? It's not like you, unless you put, like, butter right on top of mashed potatoes. Do you? No. Okay. I guess you put gravy on it.

Yeah, I was like, I think you put it in, then you wouldn't know. So you could start making it that way. You should try it this Thanksgiving. Because I think it's between that and probably like just straight up cornbread. Oh yeah, cornbread's good. I don't know if you can make it because you can always try like a different, some variation substitutes. But have you ever had corn casserole? I don't know.

You would love it. If you can find a way to make it where you'd like the like substitutions and ingredients, it's like cornbread but like creamy it's the best way I can describe it that sounds pretty good yeah and if you like cornbread that's like your I feel like you can make it too I like a really good dry cornbread

okay so you don't like cream you're like yeah Morgan nod I like cornbread under like a heat lamp really like straight out yeah do you put honey on your cornbread no raw this is weird not gonna lie you're weird for this one I have like vivid memories of like going to a buffet as a kid and gravitating towards the cornbread that had been there for a minute.

That, no, that's like hard cornbread, Mike. I think it goes back to like elementary school where that was always a side dish at least twice, maybe three times a week. Hard cornbread was? What were they doing to the cornbread? It would just like stay baked for like, I don't know, three days. Was it also you that was telling me that you like things like sometimes burnt? I like, yeah, I like things burnt.

I also like cold. I don't like cold things. Yeah, okay. This was that conversation. Yeah, I like, even earlier this week, I accidentally burned my dinner. I was like, wait, I just made it better without realizing it. I like that crispy chardness, like just hardcore. So this is why, this is what's happening with the cornbread.

I like the flavor of something being burnt to a crisp. I don't think you're alone in that. There's just something about like that, especially if we make it on the green. grill and it gets like that charred like I like that to an extreme like I will I prefer to burn some things like completely burnt though not always completely burnt but this week I was making dinner and I left it on the stove for a little bit too long and it burnt like to the point where the smoke alarm went off and I was like oh crap and then I ate it I was like oh that tastes a lot better this is wild like this is wild that's like I think of like a marshmallow for a smore

would you burn those all the way yeah you wouldn't like perfectly brown and a little bit crispy and toastie. No, I like it all the way. And then I like it when you can like just peel off the layer of burnt and just eat that part of it. That to me tastes like just straight up like you're just eating fire. Exactly. Wild. Wild experience. What is it like behind the scenes for you on the show, Ricky in California? This is our last question. I think I am constantly gathering and making notes is kind of my job behind the scenes. Okay. I think the goal to like producing anything is just remembering things and taking note of things. I think that's a lot of having the show together is just having enough material.

And how you have enough material is just keeping everything. So it's a lot of organizing. It's a lot of any time I see a new story, copying that, saving that, and putting it into a big word document that I keep. So like my entire world is like draft emails of ideas, a lot of word documents with ideas. It's just keeping everything, keeping a tab on everything, screenshoting things on TikTok. I think a majority of behind the scenes work is just compiling.

And having enough to do a show every day, having so much that in case we run out of everything to talk about, I just have a stack of things on my desk, which you've seen how much things I have over there. You got a lot going on your desk. It's a lot. Sometimes it'll fall over during the show. It's like, gosh, I had that organized. Do you feel like you're an organized person?

I have to be. Yeah. And I feel like it's my way of organizing things. Like I think if you saw all my things, you would say it looks to disorganize. But I know where everything is. And I kind of have it in a place where I can find it easily. You have organized chaos. Yes.

Like my desk is organized chaos. I wish I was one of those types of people who had really good file management as far as like their desktop is perfect. And they have like all the, is that's you? Yeah. And like everything's like labeled. correctly like I have it all where I could easily find it but it's in different places like I could not tell you like if you needed to come in and put together a show like here's this yeah you're gonna be like go here go here it's kind of everywhere it's but it's your method of madness yeah a lot

of it is in different locations like laptop printed out on my desk in my phone in my email so it's all over the place but it is there and I just think it's because I have a lot of different not just the radio show but a lot of different podcasts a lot of just inside of the radio show there are other shows so it's i need to keep things separate where i know where i need to go to find things this is what it's like working with eddie have you ever seen eddie's desktop yeah it's chaos so eddie has like thousands of just photo video different thumbnails all over his desktop and then you put mine next to it mine's just completely empty and so anytime i'm like hey eddie do you still have it's like ha ha i don't know it's probably somewhere in here. I was like, I'll just pull it again. And I just like go back in my name.

So that's like probably what it's like. But like for you guys, you know exactly what that means. Yeah, but I know it. Unlike Eddie, I would know exactly how to get that to you in an instant. Yeah. Because it's like, it's, I code everything in a way where I can find it easily. And you never, you've never been that way where you're like, I don't know where that is. Anytime I ask you for something, you have it. You give it to me immediately. So yours is not that experience. There are times when we're doing the show where Bobby was for a story and like, I can't find And that's like my biggest like, oh crap, I messed one. Like that happens every now and then just because in the chaos of everything.

My brain works sometimes where like I think I did something and I think I have it here. And then when I go to find it, I'm like, I think my brain just stopped for a second and I do not have that. Yeah, but also like you're human. You know what I mean? Like that's normal for that to happen. It's always like in the like four seconds before we go on the air. He's like, can I get that story? I'm like, that is the one that I do not have.

You're like, I have 500 others. That is like we were talking about in the other part of like picking the wrong line at the grocery store. Yeah. It's always the one story I didn't print. That's the one that is needed in that moment. Oh, and that's the words. Like your kind of gut just lights up. Yeah.

Dang it, that's the one. Oh, well, yeah. And Mike D always has a lot going on behind the scenes beyond the ones that he just described. That's just like putting it in a nutshell. It's probably the best way to put that. Because if Mike D or I or I or even. really anybody behind the scenes on the show sat here and told you everything they'd do in their job, we'd be here all day. There's a lot of things, a lot of roles everybody has. The only way I've

been able to describe it to people who maybe have never worked in a place like this is like, I'm like a project manager, I guess. Yeah. Of like, because I think when it comes to some of the things I started out doing, like I don't do as much editing as I used to do. Like, it used to be like, that was like my bread and butter. Like I was just good at editing. And I think over the years it's kind of evolved into like managing more things, which is just like, here are all these fires, control all these. And that's really what this job is. It's a lot of either controlling fires or keeping spinning plates going.
