This is a HeadGum Original. I think there's a chance in hell that Kristen Schaal has cankles. Say that. Say that. Get it clean. Your full name. I'm Jeffrey James, and I think there's a chance in hell Kristen Schaal has cankles. Ferris, keep that in. Ferris, lead with that. I'll wait for the grant reveal. My zip wants to revel in it.

Right? Ferris knows what I'm talking about when he's editing this. Yeah, you guys can't see me, but I'm dancing. Ooh, island time. So this is Friday, January 22nd, 2021. We've got Jay Kerwitz on the sax. Marika is the chief executive of HeadGum. Whoa. Katie, is it Moose or Moose?

Yeah, Moose like the animal. Katie Moose, HeadGum's newest hire, content coordinator, as it were. Found out the way to pronounce her name live sorry jake during the intro one second actually go ahead you could ask before i'm trying to explain that this is jonathan butler himself the king of lounge pop jazz bossa nova style glad you got that out jake you have a zit that you wanted to show us Jake his video is off on the zoom right now He said that he wanted to show us his Wart

For lack of a better term I didn't say wart there's a better term There's a better term and it's zit I have a pimple Before we get to the zit this is how I want to do this Marika Katie you're going to introduce yourself Tell us a little bit about what you do at the network But also just who you are as a person

You know in summation And then right when you're done jake is going to reveal this is it so the reaction is going to follow whatever you say here we go three two one i am the content coordinator so i coordinate content at the network and it's been very exciting it's like my third week now um and about me uh there's not much to say. I'm from the Pacific Northwest. And I like comedy. And I'm excited to see Jake Zit. Where is it even?

Oh, come on. No, it's so bad. Oh, it's right here. Okay. Oh. I feel like this is the worst Zit. I mean, I'm 35. I haven't had a Zit in a really long time, I don't think. This is... I mean, I'm 35. I haven't had a zit in a really long time.

I don't think this is. I wouldn't have guessed it was a zit. I would have thought it was like a beauty mark. That was my question. My question was if I didn't say a lot about my zit up top and I just joined this call. I would not have said anything. Interesting, because I had two Zooms before this. And all I thought was that everyone was like laughing at my zit the entire time chats popping off everybody's texting on the side i think it looks

like a like like you were shaving and maybe just cut yourself a little bit yeah it's because it's so close to jake's beard that and that's why it's extra inconvenient i feel like a beard eliminates like you know like 30 of my face like i could get a zit in here i might have them i wouldn't and it doesn't matter but i got right on the border it's not a good it's not a good spot it's not a good look i think slightly better yesterday i slammed my head into a metal straw that was sitting on my desk oh my god that sounds painful no curve and started like right before a meeting. Or where is it? You can kind of see it. Yeah, I can see it. Oh, that's awful.

If that is what my zit looks like, I do feel a lot better. I guess like also looking at my video, it's a lot clearer than everyone else's. So that could be it. Yeah, you're a little bit softened. It's like a camera's out of focus a little bit. And I did the Zoom like touch up your appearance thing. This is a podcast, right? Right.

We're not here to talk about touching up our appearance. We're here to talk about Jake and Marika's orange beanies. Yeah. I was excited when I saw your beanie, Marika, because my video was off and I was like, damn, this was going to be a two-fold reveal. Katie, you live in Los Angeles. What neighborhood? Culver City.

Culver City? Yeah. Avenue? Is that how it's pronounced i don't care i think that's near me i live off of like i think is how it's pronounced but it's another one of those names that yeah oh this is the first time someone's willingly doxed themselves on this show have you heard the show before we should ask you this because micah hadn't i have heard the show and i've seen the reddit um threads so i'm scared yeah so you can't dox her she doxed the thunderdome light applause again in the thunderdome what a tame dome i don't know why it always falls on me to host this shit like we're all hosts like it's an egalitarian environment katie you're a comedian you said or you're just interesting

comedy absolutely not a comedian but i do love comedy interesting interesting yeah there's a segment that i have later that's not gonna work out like i thought it was i thought you were a comedian in a way because like danny sellers is a comedian kind of everybody that i work with you don't put this on her obviously that's just your own mistake don't put it on her the whole show has been in my corner and they're like you do something with the these small tools i had to pay for my own zoom pro account you constantly foisted off on me huh you constantly foisted off on me every once in a while you're like you marika you take the reins and i never want to all right here we go marika takes the rain because druthers thank you for here we go hang on just give me a fucking

also sorry you you're complaining about paying for a zoom account when you like willingly give people hundreds of dollars of your own money every episode welcome to marika's druthers marika you have the floor for... Here we go. I'm actually, dare I say, prepared this time. And I have a bit of a game that we can all play. Oh, it's three minutes now. The longest Marika's... That is insane.

The longest Marika's experience in podcast history. Don't show the timer at the video. We know this is general sense. Lower it, you ass. Jeff has a giant hourglass behind him this game is uh guess what time jeff sent me these texts i've i've got combed through our our iMessage history um So I'm just going to read some texts from Jeff and you have to guess what time EST they were sent to me. This is a really good segment.

I would also say that Jeff's at an advantage since he sent the text but there's no way that you remember either. So it's really easy. I won't guess. You guys guess. I also won't remember. This first. So it's really. I won't guess. You guys guess. I also, yeah, won't remember. All right, this first one, it's a photo, like a quote image. And it's a photo of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. And it's a quote of the song Same Love.

It says, when I was in third grade, I thought I was gay because I could draw. Obviously the famous same love quote. What time was that sent? I'll give you a hint. This was the start of a conversation. I don't know if it's funnier if it was in the middle of the workday when Jeff should have been doing other shit or middle of the night. Let's Katie, do you have a guess? I need to still I got to marinate on this a little bit. Yeah, for me, I'm getting the vibe that maybe it was an early, early morning text.

Like a 2 a.m. your time. Okay, gotcha. Oh, 2 a.m. Marika's time. I'm going to go early morning, but like productive morning. Like Jeff sent that at 7.15 a.m. his time, making the answer 10. a.m est final answer all right it was 10 53 p.m on a sunday so right before the work day or work week begins sunday scary settling in and then you have to read a maclamore quote all right the second one and i'll zoom in so you have to read a Matt Lamar quote. The second one and I'll zoom in so you have

a visual effect. It's a photo of I guess like a dog snack called pork chomps. Baked pork chips. What time was that sent? That's the timer.

Merdick is not the host but i love this segment so we'll keep it going i will say nooner right at noon high noon midday pork chomp because it was inspired by lunch yeah katie you agree um jeff do you have a dog i I do not. Are you around a dog? Okay. That would require empathy and a sense of responsibility. Okay. I think I'm midday as well on this one. That was Tuesday, December 1st at 1.20 p.m. So pretty good. Whoa, right around lunchtime.

Okay. I'll do one more. This one's a few texts. Again, the start of a conversation. Finish Finn. Finn Wolfhard talks to various Swedes about Mortal Kombat. New text. Shit.

LOL. New text. Sorry. Hang on. New text. Sent the wrong copy paste. So that seems like that was, I think that was Jeff doing work when we were talking about the Finn Wolfhard podcast, which is nice. I mean, it's a bad idea.

Katie, do you have thoughts? What's your final answer? That to me seems like a chaotic thread where maybe he had too much coffee in the morning or early afternoon. These are such educated guesses. But I'm going to go with like another morning, another morning text for me. I'm going to go with

right after our content meeting where we talked about this, where he's trying to copy paste in a doc or something. Oh wait, but it was. Yeah, I'm just going to say 4 p.m. Eastern Eastern this one was sent Saturday October 3rd at

11.27pm right that's been when did Jeff send these texts to me great segment that was the most successful Marika Takes the Reins ever and not that the other ones were bad because of

Marika it's funnyins ever. And not that the other ones were bad because of Marika. But it's funny that you thought that there might be a Marika Takes the Reins. I learned my lesson. And now I'll come prepared. She's always ready to take the reins. I texted a couple people this early, like about an hour ago. And one of my friends was like, why did you ask this? And I was like, I kind of have a break in the action between now and 4 p.m. Eastern.

So just kind of have a break in the action between now and 4 p.m eastern so just kind of bored um who is the most famous person in your guys's context list and if you want me to bleep any of them out that's fine i just want to get real answers genuine reactions i texted you this because you did ask me and i think it's one of our former podcasters lauren bosworth just in terms of social media following. What about Low and Bosworth Hold? It's a new podcast from Lauren Bosworth. It's her kind of being like, ta-da, to her guests.

Low and behold. Right. It's not bad. I think you can just call it low and behold, to be honest. Katie, you're the new content coordinator. How is that on a scale of bad to fine? Oh, and just to give you a little bit of context before we brainstorm the Lo Bosworth podcast that Jeff is talking about.

She willingly ended her podcast and left the network. Years ago. Years ago. All right. Go on now. It's decent. It's not completely there. It's not a completely fleshed out idea. But, you know, I think there's something decent. It's not completely there. It's not a completely fleshed out idea,

but I think there's something there. It's very magnanimous of you. Yeah, quite. Thank you. Why wasn't this the initial applause break? Are you just trying to find a new audio they're getting better and better most famous person in your guys's phones katie jake would love to know i'm on the a's i got uh blumenfeld he was in uh harold and kumar three i don't think very harold and kumar

christmas there's no way there's there's people that are way too famous in here for me to show you uh so i'm not gonna do it I'll bleep it I just wanna know I guess I don't trust you Ferris does the final pass on these edits So if I don't bleep it Ferris will Can you read this That's a good one

How the fuck did you get that Moose I'm looking and I don't think I have anybody Super famous in my phone. Jake, where did you find this person? In the elevator. No, not ****. Moose.

You don't have any famous people in your context? I mean, come on, Katie. No, but that's fair. Yeah, I don't have anything good for this. You really can't follow Jake's. Oh, you know what? My former landlord did the set design for the bad music video for Michael Jackson. And now he's just a landlord.

So there you go. That's my most famous person. That's just like a very fun one. That's crazy. How did that even come up? I don't know. He just started telling me one day. Got it.

That makes sense. You know. I think if that's something you did and now you're a landlord, you talk it a lot yeah like i was yeah he's a slumlord that's your claim to fame yeah and now i don't want to turn your heat on so yeah but did i tell you about the time i met michael oh this is mine i don't know if you guys are gonna recognize who from oh the band this is such a funny game where we're just showing each other the contact names in our phone so bad for a podcast and then bleeping out the name of who it is billy brick had uh an article on variety so he might be a close second yeah you don't have finn's number i have finn's number but

like we all have finn's number so that's not like it's quarter of a compound that's like if i were if marika were to say Jake, you know? Oh, right. Like I said, Amir, but then I followed it up with the... You're going to have to bleep that out, too, because the pod is going to give it away, Ferris. With the goslingest of answers. What the fuck are you talking about? Anyway.

TGI Fry-yay, right? Don't... Are you eating chips on the yeah on my mesquite barbecue so unsettling flavors that backyard barbecue kettle brand um right what's uh what's what's your chip everybody let's go around the horn. First of all, I just want to know if it's Ruffles or no. Ruffles or not. I like the Ruffles. I've been wanting to try the All Dressed. Have you guys had the All Dressed? Incredible. I was going to say that for me. All Dressed. I have yet to try it. Isn't it just like, it's basically like

all the, I mean, I know it's a couple sauces, but people say that it tastes like barbecue, but better. Yeah. It's zestier. I don't like barbecue very much. It's like, it tastes too sweet to me. Yeah. I'm in agreement. I can only eat so much at once. Of barbecue? Yeah. It's zestier. I don't like barbecue very much. It tastes too sweet to me. Yeah. I'm in agreement. I can only eat so much at once. Of barbecue? Yeah. I could finish an entire bag of chips at any given time.

I love them so much. I was thinking about this the other day that why is the standard snack like a fried slice of starch? But then if somebody's eating a vegetable chip, we're like, are you on a diet? Like that's just as strange. Like they're all weird to have in a bag.

Veggie sticks are arguably much weirder than a potato chip. They claim to be vegetables. I don't know where they are. Yeah, it's living a lie is what it is. It's like I'm eating a veggie stick, but you're really not. The first ingredient back there isn't like a carrot. It's some other shit. And actually a potato chip, that's a vegetable.

Because a tater is a, is it a tater a veggie? I think so, yeah. Okay. That's a spud. I thought it was just a starch. It's starch vegetables. It's starch vegetables. Jake, when you were like 18, did you ever think that this is where you would be in

life like doing well for yourself but your job being saying stuff like is a starch of yeah i could have pictured that i think i don't think i would have thought that i'd have such a big zit on my face as a as a newly aged man i would have thought that maybe i would be like you know chill enough to not bring it up all the time. But here I am still petty. I think my favorite chip is salt and vinegar. Just to close the loop. What brand? Yeah.

That kettle brand's good. Yeah. The Deep River kettle? Yeah, Deep River. I like the Deep River. I do like a Cape Cod. The malt vinegar? Cape Cod is the only non-ruffled chip I could really fuck with.

Yeah. It's like at this point, I really can only do kettle chips or like shitty like doritos cheetos kind of stuff i love doritos too oh i love cheetos also no lays right i don't want a regular lays anymore you guys like smart food do you ever fuck with smart food the popcorn i'm serious i know i just make my own popcorn you make your own popcorn. You make your own popcorn? Yeah. Pop it loud and let the rubbish knock. Turn down for work. Absolutely, Marie.

a lot of people would spend that very differently than the one sitting next to them. Maybe person A would go for a run, person B would take a nap, and patient zero would read a book. The point is, a lot of us spend our time and our lives wishing we had more hours in the day. And the question is, what is that time for? And if time was unlimited, how would you use it? The best way to squeeze that special thing into your schedule is to know what's important to you and make it a priority. Thus, therapy can help you find what matters to you so you can do more of it. I'm in therapy every week and I benefit from it personally as I pursue to better

myself and be a better version of myself today than I was yesterday. Yesterday, you said tomorrow, so just therapy. If you're thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp a try.

Guys, taking care of your health isn't always easy, right? But it should be simple. That's why for the last three years,

I've been taking AG1, just one scoop and a cup of water mixed around every day, no exceptions. And it helps me feel, you know, energized, focused, ready to take on the day like I'm doing one powerfully healthy habit that's also powerfully simple. I know that AG1 gives my body high quality nutrition because every batch goes through a rigorous testing process so that you know it's safe. And their ingredients are sourced for potency, absorption, and nutrient density, all of which is very important and you don't always get with other leading nutrition brands. I like to drink it first thing in the morning. I'll have a glass of water. I'll have my AG1, and then I'll have my coffee.

And it gets me set off to take on the day and to be centered and to feel like I did at least one good thing for my health. And if you do that every day, it has compounding effects. If there's one product I had to recommend to elevate your health, it's AG1. That's why we partnered with them for so long. So if you want to take ownership of your health, start with AG1. Try ag1 and get a free one year supply of vitamin d3 k2 and five free ag1 travel packs with your first purchase exclusively at drinkag1.com slash what's that again that's drinkag1.com slash what's that check it out oh i'm so sorry guys i had two cold brews katie i'm sorry i have to see me like this. Usually I'm a pretty chill guy, especially on this show. But, um...

I was so put together. Katie... I don't want to... I didn't want to go here this soon, but here we go. Welcome to The Moose is Lo is loose this is essentially the exact same bit as

takes the reins katie it was it would have been more involved i didn't have time because i had a last minute self-tape i am setting the moose loose in a way. And what I have in my notes here is let Katie do her thing. Oh my God. That's so stressful. Katie's worked here for three weeks. I'll give you credit though, Katie. Last week, we were struggling to get a guest for last Friday's recorded episode, which is the one that came out today on the 22nd.

And I think Claire said that you were willing to be on the show last week in your second week. It took me seven months to get Angie and Sam on the show because it's such a running with the bulls type situation. So I appreciate you coming on, but I am going to have to set you loose. I liked what Marika did with her segment so i'm gonna do something similar to that what's the most random out of context or bizarre text you've gotten from your parents recently oh no these are these will be good i'm currently living with my parents so this is my mom's like really good on text oh really she's very just like super normal let me see your mom is a great emailer so i believe that you know she's a writer oh here's something you hear him my so my parents

dog is this tiny little uh westy and sometimes he'll like run into a corner to chase his ball and when he's in the corner the only way he can get out is just to back up slowly. My dad sent me a video of that. It's really cute. Here he is. Did you see the back up? Yeah. He's a good boy.

He cares about that ball so goddamn much. What's his name? Charlie. Ah, that's a good name. I feel like this segment has people stomped I really don't it's probably too complex for my first moose and loose my mom texted me so

I did like choir when I was in high school and so but they called it they called it glee club even though it was a class and not glee club it was a choir and so my mom sent me this photo from my high school's instagram of what these poor kids have to go through to sing oh no in the gymnasium like 15 feet away from each other wearing masks belting their little hearts out to like the alma mater song oh no jesus and she said look how much fun

glee club is these days with the crying laughing oh wait that's what that's the high school's instagram she wasn't at the she doesn't still go to the glee club things no she sits in on rehearsals why do you ask no yeah that's from the official instagram verified Verified. Yeah, right. This one from my mom came in also at 11 p.m. Start of a conversation. Just do you know that the highest paid YouTube star is nine years old? Wow. I haven't heard from you since I was nine.

What are you talking about? I just said I did not. And that was it? No, we went about our nights. There was nothing after? No further conversation? There's no explanation. I was like waiting for one.

Did you look into the highest paid YouTube star after that? I didn't. All we know is that they're nine. Yeah. All right. Jake, in your most successful year with College Humor, with the Jake and me videos, what are we talking salary wise? Just alone from the videos. Oh, I was always very,

I was a low-paid employee at CollegeHumor. That's cool. It was like a golden handcuff situation because it was a cushy job in every possible respect except for how much they paid me. Right. I was living hand-to-mouth at the time. And then Katie, to answer your own question.

My mom does send very, she sends voice memos as text, but there's no punctuation. It'll be like eight paragraphs long. But I can't find a good one right now. You mean voice to text dictation? Yes. And it doesn't make any sense. And all the words are wrong.

It's like trying to piece everything together every time she texts. At that point, it's like, you should just use the voice, the actual voice memo. Yeah. I don't know why she does that, but she says it's easier when she's driving, but she also still has to hold her phone, right?

And do it. It makes no sense to me. You have to hold it down or whatever. Right. And then, I mean, I used it when I was driving once and I found that I was more prone to need to look and read through

the text yeah like oh this is way more dangerous i'm just not gonna text at all i yeah i used it when i was driving once like up north in california and i found that i was uh more prone in a ditch because i kind of went flying off the i-5 in a way that was that was when you texted marika pork chops it was the butt dial yeah this has been the moose is loose right into another fucking weird segment people love this song and honestly it's pretty good. Katie, did you go to UC Berkeley? No, my little brother goes there, though. Okay.

Where'd you go to college? LMU down here. Oh, nice. I know my ex-girlfriend's just being at... Are we pretending to be at a club? Is that what's happening? I'll cut all this out. No, you can't.

Welcome to Thin Kkle Energy or Nah. This was the reason I was five minutes late. I wrote this segment in basically 20 seconds. Should be good then. I'm going to list celebrities and you tell me whether they have... Careful. Thin Ankle Energy or Nah. Those really are thin ankles.

I also recently got some blood work done. And my biggest health issue is not my eyes anymore, Jake. Sorry, go with me for a second. I wasn't interrupting. I have extremely high cholesterol. Oh, no. Really? Like, in the top one percentile for people my age.

Oh, no. What do you have to do about that? What's that? Like I'd feel bad for you, but I'm sorry, you deserve to be sick. Okay? I just,

it can't help but make me feel like my days are not only numbered, but important. So, the point of this segment, I should say i'm gonna shout out some celebrities and you tell me whether or not they have thin kankle energy which by the way because you don't have long to live and we want to make sure you inject some meaning into your life i have thin ankle energy slash just physically thin ankles this is thin kankle energy so it's almost just like it's not thin enough it's not

thick enough to be a cankle but it's not normal so just regular ankle okay huh never mind go on that's not an interesting segment jake to go ankle energy like normal ankle this is thin cankle energy then i guess i don't know what a cankle is a cankle is like a thick ankle. Got it. Jake Gyllenhaal. Thin kinkle or not? Thin kinkle. Yeah, thin kinkle. Really? No way.

Yeah. Probably big calf muscles, thin kinkle, I think, for Jake Gyllenhaal. He's got perfect legs. He's got really good proportions. He really does. He's got good fucking body chemistry, that dude. What was the movie that he got absolutely shredded on his shins like boxing on southpaw ankles that's what i call before that was like troy or something oh prince of persia prince of persia oh yeah i forgot about that yeah

he got fucking ripped for that shit goddamn jill by the way we do have to all agree so it's kind of like you know make me like it in a way do we all agree that he has thin cankle energy yeah I think he has perfect ankles is that thin is that I'm taking to mean thin cankle means he has thin cankle means good proportion yeah okay fine yes

I do I object to the fucking segment but I agree that he has normal-sized ankles. Can you just say the full sentence? He has thin cankle energy. I'm Jake Hurwitz, and I think Jake Gyllenhaal has thin cankle energy. No one else has to say their full name. I have to say my...

I'm Jake Hurwitz, and I think Jake Gyllenhaal has thin cankle energy. Turn down for what? all right a second celeb kristin shaw nah what do you think her ankles are i think they're probably on the thinner side of thin cankle. If we're taking thin cankle to be average. I think there's a chance in hell that Kristen Schaal has cankles. Say that. Say that. Get it clean.

Your full name. I'm Jeffrey James, and I think there's a chance in hell Kristen Schaal has cankles. Ferris, keep that in. Ferris, lead with that. I'm thinking the thinner side, but... Okay. I agree. I'll go thin then just because we have to move on. For sure it's not the cankled side.

Yeah, what a weird thing to put in your segment. We all have to agree. We have to agree. You're the first person to not agree. Ryan Gall. Thin cankle energy. For sure. He's like

one of those people I think who's secretly Jack. Yeah, I believe it. He's a writer? Yeah, who is that? I was going to ask but I was embarrassed. He was on

Showtime's House of Lies and now I think he's He was on Vajillion Dollar Properties. Yeah, no, he definitely looks like he's got regular on bajillion dollar properties yeah no he definitely looks like he's got regular sized ankles oh yeah do we all agree thank thin ankle thin cankle energy what about ryan paul or sorry rand paul i'm gonna say oh no fuck this guy he has thin ass ankles absolutely and thin yeah conviction thin fiction i don't know jake sometimes i just

like i'll ferris wheel cut this out but sometimes it's like i lie awake nights thinking about this kind of shit it's just like does rand paul have finviction specifically about him okay yeah i don't know it's tough you know sounds tough been a year for me. I get that because it's also tough to be around you. So I would imagine that like... It's one of those things that cuts both ways. Like, because for us... Do we all agree then, Rand Paul? Thin ankle energy?

Yeah. Yeah. All right. For sure. Tom Tall. Who are these people? Thank you. You could do anyone.

This is the most random segment in the world yeah who is this tom tall tom tall tom tall ever heard of him no i'm actually looking at thomas tall an american businessman um no the chief executive officer of legendary entertainment that's interesting obviously not t-o-O-M-T-L-L with an A between the T and the L. He's wearing wide pants in all of the photos that I see, but if I had to guess,

I think he's got thin ankles. I agree. People always act like I'm the reason why these shows don't go well. It's like, how am I supposed to... It's like an uphill battle. It's a Sisyphean task.

You think Sisyphus had thin cankle energy? He's pushing a boulder every single day. I think he probably has cankles. I think he had cankles from the muscle, yeah. All right, what about Frankie Yale? Why are these the people that you're asking about? He was an Italian mobster in the 50s

there's no connection from rand paul to frankie yale so you knew who these people were just off the top of your head these weren't google searches i do a lot of late night wikipedia searches and i don't read a lot of books so that's what's that's the main issue with me this guy looks like he's got some cankles yeah cankles for sure right like eating a lot of uh dantana style fake italian food what about zona gale no way not a real person and i refuse to look her up she's an american novelist actually egg on your face right not really she wrote such honestly pivotal works as hearts kindred turn down for gail

thankle energy right actually thin cankle energy because i'm she kind of had good like it was sort of like 36 24 36 what a winning gail she was she was hot great 36 what a winning gale she was she was hot great i've really been resisting the urge sorry you've been resisting the urge to google search search Zona Gale, and I won't. I did it with Frankie Yale. I did it with Thomas Tall. I'm not doing it again. What about Rachel Frayn?

Insane. Not real. This is just my friend from USC. Oh, wow. Yeah, I looked up Rachel Frayn Friend and there she is in her graduation gown. Rachel, text me. Don't, Rachel. You're missing nothing.

But only text me if you hear this. If you don't hear this, then you're not a supportive friend and I don't want to talk. If she heard this, there's no way on earth she would text you. Can we all just agree? Did we all agree on all these people? Because we weren't supposed to move on and we got a little moose is loose towards the towards the tail end because we are running yeah yeah we agreed we all agree all right just to recap i actually disagree i disagree let's let's stay here in this segment are you kidding me you know it's friday at five how the hell are we supposed to move on with our day this is the

We said thin cankle. What about Rand Paul? Thin ankle. Thin, very thin ankles. He also had thin, what was the other thin thing that he had?

Thin ovation? Do you think Tom Tall had thin yankle? That's a kind of skinny Yankee candle. And we all have to agree before we move on. All right, what about Frankie Yale? There was no consensus. But whatever you think. We said he had a cankle.

We said Frankie Yale had thin cankle energy. No, I thought we just said cankle. Yeah, I thought we said cankle. Cankle also. I agree, cankle. That's the mobster. Huh? You don't ever get to be confused, Jeff. all try so hard to get up on like to get onto your page

all right and just let's just get it over with zona gale author of hearts kindred yeah pivotal works don't just get it over with give just we said no i thought it was thin cankle because she had good performance like 36, 24, 36 you did the like standard body image thing which is not necessarily true well it's just
