Today's episode is brought to you by Audible.
And let me tell you, Audible's romance collection has something for every side of you.
We're talking modern rom-coms from authors like Lily Chew and Ali Hazelwood,
the latest Romantasy series from Sarah J. Mars and Devney Perry,
Regency favourites like Pride and Prejudice, plus all the really steamy stuff.
Maybe you're into hockey hunks, ooh, or sexy billionaires, like Tony Lodge.
Yeah.
Or not that she's into it.
is a sexy billionaire.
Or forbidden realms.
Oh, and you know what I'm saying? A forbidden realm.
Who needs one book, boyfriend, when you can have five.
One in the city, one on the hockey rink, one with a sword and dragons.
Your first great love story is free when you sign up for a free 30-day trial at audible.ca.
Little warning, you may develop unrealistic expectations of real life people and that's okay.
That's fine, totally fine.
In America, there is a place called Rainforest Cafe and a
is the most f***ed place in the world.
We had the opportunity to meet one of the biggest podcast advertisers in the world.
Oh my God.
I find this place on Google Maps called Rainforest Cafe.
Oh, my Jesus God.
Oh, and by the way, this was in the...
Why does that make it way worse?
I know.
I'm Josie from Brisbane, Australia.
Hey, it's Mitch from Victoria, BC Canada.
I'm Rebecca from Dallas, Texas and the United States.
And I approve this podcast.
we start today with some advice and the advice is there are no fingers to be pointed
oh it's a hypothetical oh hypothetically if you have a friend with a broken foot this is
some advice for you hypothetically hypothetically if you're friend with a broken
broken foot has the only the only way they can get around is with a little scooter
don't ride the scooter for fun and leave it in another room and then fuck off home
that's good advice yeah moving forward great advice well you weren't moving anywhere i
certainly wasn't moving no um i was like should i call a neighbor and get them to roll it back
over to me hypothetically yeah i didn't think we were naming names hypothetically but the scooter
is fun for a bit when you don't have to use it yeah see i think this is that i can't really
get to enjoy the joys of the scooter hypothetically because i am having to use it genuinely
for movement hypothetically yeah whereas hypothetically i just thought it was how fun and left
it down the hallway and then fucked off yesterday afternoon after the show i've got to go and i was
like yeah bye mate and then you and it was literally like have it in slow motion i'm like waving up
the door like this and then i went oh like it's like i
I can see it like down the whole way.
It's like, okay.
But also you can tell that it's hypothetical because Ryan just said if your friend has
a broken foot.
Yeah, because I don't have a friend with the broken foot.
I've got a best friend with the broken foot.
Oh, is Dave Parsons okay?
I hope so.
It's Thursday.
Let's do normal or now.
I just did the thumbs up.
I'm sorry.
I don't really know why.
You're okay, mud?
Yeah.
I mean, no.
Hang on, I just tried to say mate and butt at the same time and said mud.
You're okay, mud?
Hey, I appreciate it
Molly Dunn
Oh my God
Your sister Molly
Yeah
To hear from your mole
Been a while
Molly John
I get nervous
When I've ordered a click and collect
At the supermarket
Because every time I back in
And they say pop the trunk
I sort of slightly panic
Like
Because there might be a dead body
Or something crazy
In the back of my car
Yeah
It's like when you see a cop
you do that mini panic and you go, oh, oh, oh, oh, I think I'm good.
Yeah.
I know it's silly because I've pretty much never got a body in there.
Pretty much.
Is this fear normal or nah?
Normal.
Me, 1,000%.
The big one for me is the, um, when you see like a booze bus or like a roadside drug test or whatever.
And I go, oh, did I drink this morning?
As someone who, one drink a month.
Yeah, like as someone who very, very, very rarely drink.
I'm like, I drank all that alcohol this morning
Or I smoked all that meth last night
I just fully have a panic
I made a PBF pre-boken foot
I made a reel of me in the airport
Being like what my passport sees every three seconds in the airport
And it's like me like unzipping my bag
Making sure that it's still in there
That's how I feel all the time with things like that
That micro panic we go
Well maybe my passport did grow legs and walk away
or maybe I'm going to open my back
and there's going to be a heap of heroin in there
and I've just forgotten that I've left it in there
because that can happen
Hey Tony can you just hold this bag of heroin
for a few weeks for a few weeks for me
Yeah and I go oh yeah and I go
Fuck I've brought that bag of heroin
With me to the airport
Shattered
And it's just the worst place
It really is
It really is
Fernando has a normal one arm
Hi Fernando
Can you hear the drums
Fernando
When I get a
home I lay on the ground, pop my legs up on the couch and watch TV upside down backwards.
My partner hates when I do it and says it's weird, but I feel like it's the only way to
relax.
Change of scenery.
Now, of the two of us, Tone, who do you think is best place today to give a visual
reenactment for those watching at home?
Well, physically it's not me, but also, we have so much stuff.
I can do it.
Okay.
All right.
Charles,
are you filming with the phone?
I just want everyone to see what Fernando thinks is relaxing.
Okay.
Oh.
Okay.
So Ryan is moving people steps out of the way.
That's right.
She's happy.
Okay, you're on the floor.
Watch that camera right behind you.
Oh.
It could be clearance there.
Oh.
Yeah.
Oh.
Okay.
Bums in the air.
Legs are Kimbo.
Okay.
Oh, and then he watches the TV like this.
Do you feel relaxed?
I actually do because my back cracked.
Did you hear that for Charles when I laid down?
No.
Charles said no.
You look, I feel like it makes you look like a really interesting person.
Like, I'm like, wow.
How do you mean that though?
Because there's different ways.
That means different things at different times.
No, it does.
But I think I'm like, oh my God.
Like, what an interesting guy who's on the floor.
um this might seem weird this is my normal owner yeah you know when you get a massage yeah and you
lay on the table and they like you know you're under the towel or whatever and before they've even
touched you or done anything it's almost like just laying flat on the table and taking a deep breath
it's almost like it's started already because there's just that moment of like oh and they also
have the smells in there you know how they've got like a candle or
or a bit of aromatherapy or whatever.
I think laying flat on the ground,
maybe it's just gravity in your spine and doing stuff.
And obviously the smell hears more of a French bulldog
than of a aromatherapy candle.
Yeah, and that's fair.
That will happen from time to time.
I think I get it.
I think that it looks very intentional.
Like you've made a choice.
Like, I think that's sitting on the couch,
you go, well, that's just a default.
But laying on the floor.
And remember when we had a normal or now once about being a floor person?
And I am a floor person.
And I think that this is a really great way that maybe you aren't already a floor person
but you want to kind of edge into that realm.
This is a great way to start.
It's a gateway floor.
So if I put my feet up,
is that kind of where my face was for that camera that's supposed to be on me?
Yeah.
So if we just do a, now go to our split screen,
does it just look like my little tutsies are talking and like to Tony?
Tony and Toe
I think I'll do the rest of the show from here
Okay
What's your next normal or nah
Do you need your iPad?
Yeah, I can't see it from here
Because I'm actually on the floor upside down
Yeah
Okay
I think I'm just
Just make it up
Normal or nah on the fly
You've got one in you
Um
Um
You got one
Um
normal or nah
telling your friend
you were going to buy them socks yesterday
and doing it
normal
nah
right yesterday I said
oh I need a bunch of new socks
because my foot's a bit swollen
and whatever
and Ryan goes
oh you should get some from
Unicloat best place to get socks from
and I was like oh
true statement
should I order them
I was like I'll have to order them online
he goes I'll get them
what colours do you want
and I was like oh any colour
Any color is fine.
I just don't want white, white.
And he went, got it.
No worry.
Say no more.
Today, rocks up.
And she's saying more.
She's saying more.
More is being said.
Well, it's being requested that I, required that I say more because there's no more socks.
I'll stop filming because that angle is going to see my butt.
Oh, yeah.
Oh.
What did I say?
Oh, Pippa's checking on you.
She's like, you're on my floor.
Okay, final one is from McGoff B Rainer
Oh, hang on, yep
Pipa, that's not for you
Oh, get down, get down, good girl, good, good, good, good
I don't think Pippa gets it
She doesn't
She doesn't know that you've got a broken foot
And I think that she is being a bit protective of me
Because there's like being people here
Right
So I think that she's a bit like, well, I'll sit with my mum
And make sure she's okay
Isn't it, Mama?
Or is it the other way around
She's getting close to you because she's like,
Hank Pat me and not these new people
Yeah, mate, maybe.
Okay, we're safe here.
Yep, Graff McVey.
McGuff B. Rainer.
Sorry.
Does anyone else turn up the TV volume when eating kettle chips?
I want to hear my show, but the crunching sound of the crisps are so loud.
Can I say?
I've never experienced this until the other day I was eating soy crisps.
You know, those little, like, long, like, star.
No, no, no, like the long, like star shaped, like hard.
Oh, yeah.
The other things I'm talking about, I was eating those.
And they were like chili and lime flavor.
That was so yummy.
But they are so loud.
You can't hear yourself think.
And it was while I was catching up on the summer, I turned pretty.
And there's parts of that show that are quite quiet.
And so I've like cranked the TV up because I'm like hoofing in my mouth.
And I thought, I could stop eating or I could keep turning the TV up.
I'm Josie from Brisbane, Australia.
I'm Rebecca from Dallas.

She's wearing a beautiful nightgown.
She takes out of the fridge some rhubarb compot,
a little bit of Greek yogurt and some granola.
That's what I imagined.
I was going to say, no, chia pudding,
but with rhubriub, strew rhubarb and like granola and stuff on top.
Yeah, 1,000%.
She slices her baguette.
Oh.
And instead of putting butter on it, she drizzles some oil.
Nice.
Then a freshly sliced tomato on top.
Buffalo tomato.
Yeah.
Yep.
A little like salt and pepper on top of that.
Black coffee.
Black coffee.
1,000%.
Yeah.
She might even be doing like a little tea.
No caffeine.
Oh, like a little herbal.
Mm.
What do you reckon, Charles?

For dinner?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, that's a bit less sexy.
But thank you very much to everyone who's in our Patreon.
And thank you for listening and watching today.
It really means a lot to us.
We are here.
Big showbiz production on Tony's couch today while she's recovering from a broken foot.
Yep.
And a little peek behind the curtain of the Tony and Ryan podcast.
For two years, we were like a Spotify exclusive.
Yep.
And now we are not anymore.
We haven't been for a long time.
Yeah.
So it's up to people in Patreon.
Thank you very much to help us keep the lights on.
Yeah.
And also having advertisers on the podcast.
Yep.
So when you were getting medevacked out of America,
Lily and I went to this podcast conference in Dallas.
Uh-huh.
I was supposed to be there, obviously.
Yeah.
That's why I was in the situation.
And we had the opportunity to meet one of the biggest podcast advertisers in the
world.
Oh, my God.
And so,
do they sign on?
These are the people that, like, sign the big checks to advertise on the big
podcast.
I see.
Yeah.
And we were like, oh, they're at the conference, like, let's catch up and say hi and introduce
ourselves.
Yeah.
And at the conference, it's a little, like, we're not conference people, but it's a little
bit like networky business cards, shake it.
Oh, do you want, let's come have a check.
And it's just a bit.
What did you wear?
Like, was it cash and cool?
or was it was cash because it was in Dallas and it was 45,000 degrees of course yeah but I remember
before you broke your leg you were a bit like is it business attire am I like wearing a collar
I definitely didn't think I'm looking smart like smart I think and kind of like chic yeah not just
like t-shirt and shorts even though because of what's going on outside yeah the hellscape
you kind of want to just be wearing it's a bike shorts and a t-shirt Dallas is actually the
Perth of America because it's the driest of heats.
The Perth of America.
It's the driest of heats.
Hilarious.
Nah, but in Perth, though, you got the doctor.
Yeah, the Freo doctor.
No doctor in Dallas.
It's just fucking hot all day.
Exactly.
So because the environment of the conference was very networky.
And very indoors.
Yeah.
And very like, not like stuffy, but you're like.
But I didn't want to have this chat just like in the corridor of the conference.
Yeah.
So I was like, I went on Google Maps and I,
And there's like a cafe down the road.
Yeah.
So I'm like, let's get out of the conference center.
Yep.
Um, get some fresh air.
Take a load off.
Yeah.
And like then we can have more of a personal longer chat.
Totally.
Yeah.
So I look on.
And have a rhubarb compot with some granola.
Wow.
Oh.
I find this place on Google Maps called Rainforest Cafe.
Oh my God.
You would get an amazing club sandwich there.
That's what that sounds like.
It sounds nice.
And rain.
forest on a hot day when you're in Texas, you're like, oh, at least it sounds cool and calm
and refreshing.
And, like, dark and, you know, nice.
Now, most people around the world are probably with me at this point in time going, it does
sound nice.
And also, cafe.
Like, it's probably a regular cafe with one plant in it and they call, you know what
I mean?
Like, yeah.
But that's what you're picturing, eh?
Yeah, except Americans aren't picturing that because a lot of Americans know what the
rainforest cafe is.
Oh, it's a chain.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Now, press play on this video.
This is from ins, this is, I've shot this at my table inside the rainforest cafe where I've taken the biggest podcast.
It's locked.
Sorry.
We've taken the biggest podcast advertiser.
Yeah.
To woo them.
Yeah.
And, you know, talk about our beers.
And this is the place.
Oh, monkeys.
Oh, my gosh.
Are they really?
Real? Oh, no.
Oh, an elephant? Oh, my Jesus God.
We're at a restaurant, by the way.
Monkeys swinging from trees, the elephants try to flap you with their ears, like,
and there's this huge gorilla that yells at you and you order.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Rainforest Cafe, it turns out everyone in America has been to an eight-year-old birthday party
or probably had their birthday party when they were 10 at the Rainforest Cafe.
So have you said to all of these Americans?
I'm taking you out.
Oh, we'll take you to the rainforest.
Meet you at the rainforest cafe and they've gone, oh.
Like if you said to someone here like, oh, yeah, we're just, I'm trying to think of fucking equivalent.
It's not like Chucky Cheese, but it's the same category of like where you would go for a kid's birthday party.
There was this place in Perth and it was called Wiggles and Giggles.
And it was like an indoor play center.
And then like you could have your birthday party there.
and they had the ferry room and the, you know, car's room.
And that kind of is giving me, you know.
So they came around to the table, the people that work there.
One of them was the tarpa, by the way, who works there.
And we're at the, it was the grapevine mills in Dallas for anyone playing along at home.
But it turns out it's really normal at the rainforest cafe because you're like in the jungle that everyone like put you, you're going to put your paws up.
And so the personal work that comes around with a photo and was like, do you guys want a group photo?
everyone like
like give us your paws
so in this picture
you know a few of them
there's Heather who's the managing director
of ACAS Canada
and then there's some of the biggest
podcast spenders in the world
and look at us all
with our paws up at Rainforest Cafe
in a shopping centre
at grapevine mills
Dallas
there's so much happening here
there's just so much happening in this photo
can I say who the advertiser is
they won't care
no they'll love it
it's better help
it's better help yeah
so see the lady sitting next to me
with her paws up
every person that has a better help
add on their podcast in the
world she has to approve and sign off that's her there of course that is so endearing i think
that you took them to like a kid's birthday party like and i went there and because um and lil was
with me there were a few is it fair to say a few were pumped and a few were like why the fuck are we
at rainforest cafe is that fair yeah i think so there was also like much discussion about like what
to eat off the menu and what was going to be safe and stuff
Okay, so this is going to be my question, right?
I've got two questions.
Tony sent Ryan to conference on behalf of the biz.
Well, yeah, but no, that's okay.
What kind of food did they have?
Because the vibe I'm getting is like,
you know who when you go to the zoo or to the aquarium or something?
And there's like the little cafe at the top
and they sell like one dry hot dog.
You know, like what kind of food did they?
have was it like an ikea well first of all um there's two separate parts of the cafe breakfast and
dinner no one is the cafe bit and the other is like the gift shop and the gift shop is the size of fucking
ikea and has the range of ikea or they just had all these like stuffed animals and plushies and stuff
and like it was all this fun place but you have to get to the cafe you have to like walk through
all the toys yeah they're with your socks um and so uh there's that big thing to
to get me a memorial rainforest cafe, toenow clippers or something?
We did look, but it was also the day we were flying out that night and we were like a bit
like, what are we doing here?
Lil and I literally were like, Tony loves merch, but we're like, we're packed.
There's so much going to the airport and flying home.
And like, is this really what we need.
Although I did make a joke because I had little like stuffed kangaroos and I was like,
I don't need to buy one because we have these at home.
Oh, so true.
yeah yeah with this food on yeah yeah but then but the cafe part yeah the food was like
surprisingly good yeah but it's like it all the names of the food yeah we're just because
you know most places are sort of there's the burger and the the wing yeah whatever but they're all
just called like yeah the the the mischievous monkey munchy bar yeah and you're like and then
you get a steak and you say can I get that medium raw
instead of red.
My second question is, um,
Charles,
are you,
how are you feeling that I took you away from this experience?
Well,
that could have been you,
Charles.
You could have been there.
You could have gotten the mischievous monkey raw bar.
I have heard of this like before on like,
I've seen like videos on YouTube over like people going and it looks sick.
Oh,
hilarious.
But also I've just found online that they've got like a gift shop online that ships to
Australia.
And they do.
do socks and they're only eight
AUD. Oh.
Yeah.
Couldn't get the ingredients for that.
Yeah. You couldn't fucking
swing a monkey in a
but I just want to say that
you represented our business really well.
Where do you go to a conference? You go for the
education and you go to learn and this
is what I've learned. Yeah? And I'm going to look
down the barrel and tell everyone what I've learned. Okay.
In America
there is a place called Rainforest Cafe and it is the most
fucked up place in the world
and I love it
I'm really jealous I didn't get to see it
didn't feel a little bit claustrophobic in there
because there's like so much going on
so what happens is
and it's quite dark
it's really dark
when I watch that video we would have put it on the screen
but like it's dark
because it feels like a bit close
yeah I think I would have given me
heart palpice so it's really dark and we're in there
and then everyone because everyone else has been there
but I think that's part of it
Oh, it's like when you go to the cinema
And you know how now
If you go to business, not business class
Like Lux or whatever
Business Class
Gets Medivact in business class
Yeah, you know in business class
I'll give you the fucking
Was there a bit?
I know what you're asking
It was there business class
In the Rainforest Cafe
I use my rainforest points to upgrade
Do you guys accept Quantus points in?
But you know when you go to like Lux or whatever
and now they have like a full fucking food menu.
I'm like, you know what?
I actually don't want to slop a burger all over myself in the dark.
And what, the film finishes, the lights come up.
And I go, oh, well, there's all that extra aoli.
I have fucking lost.
It turns out I'm the secutory board now.
Yes, look at me.
It was very dark.
And then, because a lot of them had been like when they were kids,
they knew what to expect.
So about every, I would say 12 minutes, like lightning strikes and the whole thing rumbles.
and that's when the gorilla comes out
and the elephant starts flapping its shit
and they're kind of like, oh, that's the fit.
But when you don't know it's coming,
it's fucking terrifying.
Another question.
Yeah.
Were the bathrooms also themed?
Well, as the representative
that always checks them multiple times
wherever we go.
Yes.
That's what I'm asking,
I'm asking them on the ground.
They were a little bit lighter in color,
but they were still like green
and like pictures of monkeys on the wallpaper.
But they're still like themed.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, and by the way, this was in the middle of, like, a Westfield shopping centre.
Oh.
Why does that make it way worse?
I know.
I know.
But when you look on Google Maps, it just, like, has a dot and says, because I typed
in, like, restaurants near me.
Yeah.
And I'm like, oh, it's near the center.
So we'll park there.
Yeah.
And then we parked there and then, like, so we had to walk past, you know, Suzanne.
Yeah.
And a just cup.
yeah um don't mind the just cuts we're just on the way to the rainforest cafe yeah
yeah oh um we could get a massage after that and then do our grocery shopping yep and if you'd like
uh what 10% off uh better health just go to bethelf dot com slash tar because they were very impressed
yeah well and they love the rainforest guys hey you've done a really good job there um i don't know
if my you love to see it can can compare with that um but air and
Aaron has set this through on Patreon.
And Aaron has started the fucking block.
Aaron says,
I've been doing a bit of freelance writing on the side for a few years
and finally decided to officially open my own copywriting and content writing business.
Fuck yeah.
Isn't that awesome?
The fun twist is that my niche is working with NSFW,
so not safe for work, adult and spicy brands and businesses and content creators.
I think this is where Tony would say, hot.
I work with only fans, creators, adult toy businesses,
sexual health startups, and more to write their websites,
blog content, like all their social media stuff,
and like create their websites.
So Erin has said if you want to visit the website,
you don't have to, but I'd be thrilled if you did.
And this name is amazing.
Afterdarkcopy.com.
Isn't that a great fucking name?
Especially like, yeah, it's the niche within the niche.
And it's like, this is what I do.
I do ask without coffee.
Yeah.
And it says what it means without being too like...
In your face?
Yeah.
I just love it.
Because I would have gone with like cock and balls words.com.
Yeah.
Or like cock tent writing or...
But you know what?
Yeah.
That's why she's the copywriter and I'm not.
Yeah.
Especially for OF and sexual health businesses.
Yeah.
I just really love that.
And you kind of don't realize that that would be a niche.
But I love that there's a space for that.
And some of those clients would be able to pay for.
it, you know what? Yeah, Aaron, good on you do. That's fucking awesome. Um, yeah, and if you want to, if
you want any copy written, I reckon, do you reckon Aaron could help Charles with his Tinder?
We get a bit of after dark copy. Charles, will you, we'll pay for it, but Aaron can completely
write your Tinder and hinge bios. Yeah, I feel like, because like, Tinder, it's like, you don't
write a lot, but hinge, like, there's a bit. So yeah. That would be, that would be fun. So, so,
Aaron, if you're listening,
we could go to the website and put in a submit a form or something.
We'll go to after dot coffee.com.

Client goals,

But I just love that.
Congratulations on starting the fucking blog.
That's huge.
How cool.
Cool.
I love to see it.
Cool.
Cool.
It is cool.
I don't have the words,
because I'm not Aaron.
Yeah.
Now,
I don't know how to pronounce his name,
so I'm really sorry,
but I think it's Gary Seney.
This is his second name
I don't know how to pronounce his second name
I don't really know how to pronounce his name
Gary Gary sneeze
This is the actor
You know Gary?
No
He plays Lieutenant Dan in Forrest Gump
I haven't seen it
I have got a lot of time coming up
Maybe I can watch it
Oh he talks about running a lot though
I don't know if I can take that on at the moment
He's been in a lot of things
But in Forrest Gump
He's in the war with Forrest Gump
Oh, does he go to...
Oh, is it a war film?
No.
It has a war party in it.
Allow me to take that on, hang on.
He goes to war in a part of it.
Just a brief bit of war.
That, you have to watch the movie.
Yeah, okay.
Because it's a brief bit of lots of things.
Oh.
Yeah.
You actually really like it.
Would are they?
Yeah.
Do you know what should happen to this?
I've got some socks to get.
But after...
Imagine if we got like a heap of lunch and watched Horace Gum that would actually...
I'd actually love that.
Anyway, so in the movie, he plays Lieutenant Dan.
Love it.
Am I alert to spoil Forest Game?
It's been enough.
It came out in like fucking 1803.
Lieutenant Dan loses some limbs in the war, but it survives.
And so he didn't really know much about the veterans, you know, the world of people that have been to war and stuff.
Yeah.
And then they invited him.
They said, oh, you know, you've played a soldier.
Would you like to come to the soldiers convention and meet some people that...
Like in real life.
In real life.
Yep.
And he kind of was like, I'd love to, but...
I can't be the guest of honor.
You guys actually went to war.
I was in a movie.
A brief bit of war in a movie.
Yeah, but he really like, a lot of respect, you know,
like really like this is whole part of the American culture
that you didn't know anything about.
So now every year he takes 1,000 children who've lost their parents in the war
and takes them to Disneyland.
And that's him on the...
And takes them to the rainforest cafe.
No, that is amazing.
That's him there.
He's booked out a whole...
flight of their old children that, you know, their parents are away or they're no longer with us
unfortunately. But he's like, well, every year I'm taking you all to Disneyland and doing a really
good thing. And I think he's been doing this for a while. But I read the comments on
Reddit and they're like, he never really tells it. He just does it. It's not like a big like
fucking PR event for him. And he's been doing it for ages and everyone in the comments like,
yeah, he met my niece. He's a fucking legend. Oh, that's so amazing. So I respect that so much. Not enough
to learn how to pronounce your last name.
I mean, yeah, it's pretty funny when you just had.
I don't really know how to pronounce his name.
It's Dan.
It's pretty funny.
Poor Gary.
Poor Gary.
But Gary is my love to see it.
That's really amazing.
Yeah, what a legend.
Oh, love to see that.
Yeah, so Gary and afterdarkcoppy.com.
Hey, and you know, that's just the extremities that we can swing from.
Much like monkeys in a rainforest.
So true.
After.comby.com looks like a sick website as well.
Oh, okay, I'm going to go to it after this.
Okay, now, after this beautiful, wholesome moment,
let me tell you the topic we're doing on Monday.
Oh, because it's the weekend.
Yes.
The topic is, and submit your stories,
when did you first fart in front of your partner?
Oh.
And you're going to decide if it's funny or like real romantic.
Maybe not romantic, but like real wholesome.
Sweet. Yeah. I love it.
Yeah.
And so that's on Monday.
Monday. Tomorrow we've got a reaction video on YouTube and I love you very much.
Love you so much. See you on Monday.
Bye.
