[00:00:18] Speaker A: Welcome to Friendly Competition, a podcast to discover the best of all time. I'm Nick Carey alongside my co host and best friend, Cody Lena. We discuss various pop culture topics and narrow down to truly the best of.
[00:00:28] Speaker B: All time, or as we like to call it, the boat. Before he gets up on the boat, we put him into a sweet 16 style tournament. We argue each round till we decide a winner. Nick, what can you use when he decide he steps foot on the boat.
[00:00:39] Speaker A: Whatever the hell we want. Cody, you want to tell him what we're talking about this season?
[00:00:42] Speaker B: Absolutely. We have got the best of the best. If we had to send a song into space, these are our options from 2004. We went back to 2004, and we got all the songs, and only one of these gets to live forever. I am going to wipe your mind. All of men in black, and you only get to actually, we're going to figure out which one you get to relearn live for the first time. Everything else gets to stay, but one of these songs you get is so good, you get to experience it all over again.
[00:01:10] Speaker A: Wouldn't that be fantastic, dog, if I could get to relive.
[00:01:15] Speaker B: Can you imagine the reason coming out for the first time? Now, I don't know why, but at the time when we were kidding, okay.
[00:01:19] Speaker A: That'S probably the worst case scenario for the reason.
[00:01:21] Speaker B: But if the reason played right now for the first time, like, if I just got done listening to Drake and Kendricks beefing with each other, right, fucking meet the grams is over. And I'm like, oh, man, I need something to calm down.
[00:01:31] Speaker A: Oh.
[00:01:31] Speaker B: The reason this is on the pop charts, a nice slow rock ballad. Let's go. Can I listen to this garbage ass song?
[00:01:38] Speaker A: It would be awful. It would be. It would be terrible. It would truly change.
All right. Yes. That is correct. Here we are in the final four, where we have our group A champion. Yeah. By usher, lil jon, and ludacris going up against the group B champion, toxic by Britney Spears. On the other side of the bracket, we have group c champion, the reason by huba stank going up against group D champion, bloat on and cody. We got to cut the bullshit.
[00:02:12] Speaker B: All right, let's cut it, dog.
[00:02:13] Speaker A: Let's cut the bullshit.
[00:02:14] Speaker B: Get to the point.
[00:02:15] Speaker A: I I was expecting you to really lay a little bit more on, but what are we doing here, dude? What. What are we.
[00:02:23] Speaker B: This was.
[00:02:24] Speaker A: I want to start. I want to apologize, actually, I want to start off with an official apology to the fans of our show, because I think here's what happened behind the scenes. Little peak behind the kimono. Obviously, we had to come up with something to do. Right. We had to come up with. We have to come up with it. I don't know if you guys realize this. We have to come up with these every time. We have to come up with an idea for a season. Every season.
[00:02:45] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:02:45] Speaker A: Do you know how much I would love to just do best Adam Sandler movie every time. Best fast and furious every time.
[00:02:52] Speaker B: Yeah. Do you know. Do you know how tired Catherine is of making up these seasons?
[00:02:56] Speaker A: Yeah. And on this case, she was out. We didn't have Catherine. So then we had to come up with our own. So then we're like, cody's like, you know, maybe we'll do music. And I was like, I hate you, Cody.
[00:03:05] Speaker B: I don't want to do music again. You've hurt me too many times.
[00:03:08] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. I'm ready to get hurt again. And so it's like, well, let's just make it easy on ourselves. Let's do we already. We know what we like to talk about. Like, talk about summer bangers 20 years ago. That makes sense. 2004. Let's go.
[00:03:21] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:03:21] Speaker A: Oh, my God. Did Cody. This is what should have happened. It's not what happened. And this is why you deserved an apology. When we got to 2004 and we saw, oh, this is the same year that. Yeah. By Usher came out, what happened was.
[00:03:34] Speaker B: We should have just. We should have jumped it. We should have got out of here.
[00:03:37] Speaker A: Cody's exactly right. That's the moment we should've been like, oh, well, that would be dumb then, because.
Yeah. Is maybe arguably one of the greatest all time top ten, at least. Top five for me. Pop songs of all time.
[00:03:53] Speaker B: Yeah. I think it's hard to not rank it in. Like, even if you're being a dick and you hate Russia, Usher, and you hate r and b and that stuff, it's still got to be a top 25 pop song. All time.
[00:04:03] Speaker A: All to all time.
[00:04:05] Speaker B: All time.
[00:04:06] Speaker A: But what Cody and I, that's what we should have done because there's nothing that could have. But what Cody and I did was we're like, oh, nice. We'd love to talk about. Yeah. So let's do that season. And that's what happened here, folks. You had. Yeah. And the problem is, too, you got to. That was group a. So even by the beginning of this season, you already knew. It's like, I don't. So that's kind of it, huh? Like Yazzer. Yeah. They already talked about. Yeah. And then we had to then fill for us while we're recording. We got to fill three more when the reality is. Yeah. Wins. I. Yeah.
[00:04:38] Speaker B: But those other three episodes are still good because they're very fun. I want to say they're very fun and good because. Yeah, it wasn't in there.
[00:04:44] Speaker A: Yeah. So we really had to stretch ourselves artistically, which I love to do with Nick.
[00:04:48] Speaker B: That's the reason I do the show, so me and Nick can experience each other, the whole gamut of each other's creativity.
[00:04:53] Speaker A: I want to be clear that my apology is not for the content that we put out. I stand behind the work that we did. My apology is for wasting your time. There was no need to do all of that talking when the answer was was obvious.
[00:05:08] Speaker B: Well, the problem is we shouldn't have done best summer bangers of two. We shouldn't have done it. What we should have done was just change the whole format of the show to review confessions by Usher, because that album, dude, I went back and listened to. Yeah. And it's the first song on the album. There's intro and then. Yeah. Right.
[00:05:28] Speaker A: Wild. Also.
Wild. Wild to start. It is one thing to, like, obviously, everyone knows you put your singles in the top of the album. You put it in the top three songs. Right. Make sure that it's right on side a. But you start off with, yeah, you. You are. Now, that is the. That is the cockiest calling your shot. That's Babe Ruth coming out, pointing his bat and saying, like, hey, this is. I'm opening with this. And I'll tell you right now, like, as the person listening, it only gets better as an out. Like, it. It really just sets off and you're like. You're like, how could you live up to. Yeah.
[00:06:07] Speaker B: Oh, my God. Yeah. Can you imagine? You start with yeah. You intro. Start with yeah. And you're like, well, that's gotta be the best song in the album. It is. It's an all time iconic song.
[00:06:17] Speaker A: Right. With.
[00:06:18] Speaker B: You have. Yeah. End of throwback. Then you get hit with confessions, which is good, but then you get hit with confessions part two.
[00:06:25] Speaker A: My dude.
You're like, there's no way.
[00:06:29] Speaker B: There's no way. After he confessed and confessed again that I can get an even better breakup song and even better breakup song. Oh, hold my fucking beard. Because Usher's about to give you burn.
[00:06:40] Speaker A: Burn my daughter, dude, once again, is, yeah. The best song on the album. Sure, sure. This album, if you do, that's like, I don't think thriller opens thriller. You know what I'm saying, like, that is such a called shot of being like, this is. It's too good of a song. It should be a little bit deeper. You should allow some other songs to breathe. But not usher was like, no, no, no. I trust the heat that I have. Perfect example. The album thriller by Michael Jackson starts with want to be starting something? Great song. Right?
[00:07:10] Speaker B: Great.
[00:07:10] Speaker A: So we all love want to be starting something. That's a really good, like, sets the pace. And then as you're going on this journey, four songs in, then you're hit with this combo. Thriller. Beat it, billie Jean. Right.
[00:07:22] Speaker B: What? That's a murderous role.
[00:07:24] Speaker A: That's an insane.
[00:07:25] Speaker B: And that's why. That's why Usher never became the king of pop. He tried. Confessions is close.
[00:07:30] Speaker A: Confessions is a strong album. But I'm saying you're. By putting. Yeah. You've already established, like, it's like, okay, you better back it up. And the fact that he did, because low key. I do think burn is maybe my fate, like, my favorite song.
[00:07:44] Speaker B: Well, we didn't even think, like, caught up is right after burn, too.
[00:07:48] Speaker A: Geez. Yeah. What is he doing?
Usher, slow down.
[00:07:53] Speaker B: Sure. The problem. Okay, let's talk about Usher. That's what this episode will be about. The problem usher had is that he had all these songs, and it's like, hey, usher, you got, like, you got, like, five or six of the greatest pop songs of a generation. You want to spread them out over a bunch of albums and be really prolific. Nah, dog. Put it on one.
[00:08:10] Speaker A: Yeah. It'd just be way easier for me.
[00:08:12] Speaker B: What?
[00:08:13] Speaker A: Because, well, okay, this is the expanded version, so I don't know when, at what point we get to the full expanded. But right now, I mean, confessions is 21 songs, and, like, met. There's my boo is on there. Do you know, like, you have bad girl on here? On top of what you've already said, we got confessions. Confessions part two. Burn. Caught up. It's insane. It's an insane album. Because cody would like. Because cody's the one who was like, you got to listen to this. You got to go.
[00:08:42] Speaker B: I was doing my research right after we got done, I went to work on that Monday. We recorded on Sunday, went to work on Monday, and I was in the morning, got off my meeting. I was like, I'm going to throw on fucking. Let's get it started. I'm just going to listen to. Yeah, right, dude. I put on. Yeah. And I was six or seven songs into the album before I realized I'm doing this whole album. Yeah, I'm doing this whole album. I texted Nick. I didn't even do my other research because it's not necessary. The power of Usher was so strong that I couldn't even listen to the other song.
[00:09:11] Speaker A: No, because why defense, though I did.
[00:09:13] Speaker B: Listen to talks and float on. I never got around to the reason.
[00:09:16] Speaker A: Because I just were like, I can't.
[00:09:18] Speaker B: Do this stuff came up.
[00:09:19] Speaker A: You know, life happens. I didn't have. I didn't have that three minutes, 30 seconds. Like, I really didn't. I really didn't. I could audit the whole week, and I'm telling you right now, you're just not going to find a space for to fit in that song. So I apologize.
[00:09:34] Speaker B: I should have.
I worked on it.
[00:09:37] Speaker A: I was trying no, dog. I actually did. I mean, I did because you told me to, but it's very funny. I had the opposite happen to me. I was like, you know what? Let me go back and listen to the reason. And I pulled it, and I, you know, so then I'm listening to the album.
[00:09:49] Speaker B: Why did you, like, why would that, of the four songs, that was the one you wanted to start with?
[00:09:55] Speaker A: Well, it just happened. Like, I was like, oh, I played it, and then I kept it on for the nostalgia and, oh, boy, it is. Wow. Nope. It sounds like a. It sounds like a record from a band named Hoobastank. You know what I'm saying? Like, you're like, you should. They told you upfront with their name, like, yeah, man, it don't. Don't take this too deep, but you ain't gonna.
[00:10:17] Speaker B: You ain't gonna come out of this smelling like roses, my man. Is it like.
[00:10:20] Speaker A: Cause, like, the thing is, I have re explored, like, my butt rock era, right? I've gone back to certain nickelback songs, and I'm like, this does kind of rip. Like, I can't remember which one it is, but it's the one with the car driving away. That album pretty much rips top to bottom, like, for what it wants to be. For what it wants to be. I think it achieved. Yeah.
[00:10:40] Speaker B: Let's talk about music. Well, this. With this episode, Zusher's gonna win. So Nickelback isn't trying to be good musicians, and we got to stop.
[00:10:46] Speaker A: Exactly.
[00:10:47] Speaker B: We got to stop accusing him of that. They're trying to make ripping rock songs that we can drink coors, like, to.
[00:10:52] Speaker A: Exactly.
[00:10:53] Speaker B: And they do that very.
[00:10:54] Speaker A: And they do. And so it's just that expectation, like, understanding, not. I think there was. There was almost, like, some expectation, like, every rock band wants to be the Beatles. Right. You want to, you not only do you want the record sales, but you want the acclaim. You want to be considered for changing rock and roll. And I think Nickelback is just of this. They're like, no, don't worry about us. Like, not even, not even close. Like, the fact that they frequently do stuff with ZZ Top because I think that's the energy zz top was having. But just like the seventies, do you know what I'm saying? Like, those were dudes.
[00:11:29] Speaker B: Okay, okay, so zz top is nickelback. If they could shred their instruments.
[00:11:34] Speaker A: Exactly. If they were better in, like, once again. But ZZ Top is not. They're shredding because that's fun to do for them.
[00:11:42] Speaker B: Exactly.
[00:11:42] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? It's not, it's not in that way that, like, when Slash does a solo in Guns n Roses, Slash wants you to know that he's one of the greatest guitarists. He is like, guns and roses, an example of a band from the eighties that wants you to think of them as, as great as musicians. Yeah, yeah. They want, they want to be considered great. Nickelback, this band would live forever. It's that they got lucky because if they weren't successful as their own music, they would just be a cover band. Like, these are dudes who I think just want to, like, drink beer and rip off some licks, you know? Like, that's all they want to do. I've seen them live last year. I tell you right now, those, that is it. That is what's happening on that stage.
[00:12:27] Speaker B: So are you saying the reason they hoopa stank also just wants to drink beer? Or were they trying. Did they, did they go into this and, like, we're gonna create art and then they gave you hoopa stank?
[00:12:36] Speaker A: Exactly. Exactly. Like, and that's the problem, is, like, you, you knew your band's name was Hoopa Stank, so do not, do not go into your projects being like, man, this, this is gonna be that shit. This is. People are gonna, we're gonna change lives with this music right here. This is gonna define, like, they, I think they think of themselves as, like, genre defining, and it's like, not at all. Please don't. This is very, like, I forgive my 7th grade self for thinking that this is like that shit, because I do. I'll never forget that. Like, I was in 7th grade when this album came out, and at that time, I probably would have said, this is a near perfect album. And now I'm an adult and I know better. And I know how music works and what good music sounds like.
[00:13:22] Speaker B: Yeah. So who's saying Scarborough they're out. So now we've got usher.
[00:13:25] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:13:26] Speaker B: Yeah. Toxic and float on. Let's just go through and keep ripping this band aid off. Okay. Britney Spears, right? I love Britney Spears. She had a modern renaissance with the, you know, her whole free Britney, hashtag free Britney and all that stuff. I'm looking at my prerogative, which is her greatest hits album.
[00:13:40] Speaker A: Sure.
[00:13:40] Speaker B: There, there are less, this, this album has 26 tracks. A huge, right?
[00:13:45] Speaker A: Yeah, that's pretty big.
[00:13:47] Speaker B: There are less bangers on this than on confession. All of Britney's singles even, you know, baby, one more time. Great. Oops, I did again. Great. Toxic. Great. Whatever.
It doesn't add up to just confessions top to bottom.
[00:13:59] Speaker A: Right.
[00:13:59] Speaker B: And not only that, I'm cherry picking her greatest hits and putting them onto an album, saying this album has as many hits. Nick was, I know Nick said it as a joke. In Group A, Confessions is literally a front to back story album.
[00:14:11] Speaker A: Yeah. That's, the other thing to remember is that it is intentional. Like it is his magnum opus. Like people, that's what's insane to me is like when Koheed can't, when coheating Cambria drop an album. Right. Everyone knows, oh, man, look at these guys. They're here to build a story. My chemical romance with the black parade. Right? Like there's some expectation that you have, I don't remember at all people giving Usher his flowers for the fact that he's like, no, no, no. I'm doing like a full story. Like not rock opera but essentially a rock opera. This is essentially a rock opera, but in hip hop.
[00:14:48] Speaker B: Like Usher is Lin manuel miranda. Right? This, he's our, the first Lin manuel miranda.
[00:14:53] Speaker A: It makes me upset at myself for how much I was like, yeah, Usher has some good songs. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, I was like, when they announced Usher for the Super Bowl, I was initially like, really? I mean, he's, yeah, yeah, it's gonna be good and there will be some fun ones. And I mean, obviously he proved me wrong with his performance. I think it's one of the best. But even then going through and listening to confessions, you're like, this dude is not being hailed as like, I do. I think to some level, like he is a genius. Like he's, this album is amazing.
[00:15:28] Speaker B: So does that mean you want to talk touch base again on what crime we're going to allow Usher to get away with because it's got to be something, my dude.
[00:15:35] Speaker A: Well, he did. He does have herpes and has given it to multiple women, so I do think the scales are currently in balance.
[00:15:43] Speaker B: Oh, okay. That, that was his thing. All right.
[00:15:45] Speaker A: Yeah, it's, like, there. It's what? Yeah, it's there. It's, uh, you know, sorry.
[00:15:51] Speaker B: It's not, I wanted to say, for the record, I didn't assume Usher had the perfect conscience and that he didn't do anything wrong. Yeah. I'm saying I would let him get, I let him defraud a bank.
[00:15:59] Speaker A: Well, he might. He might come out. The one thing that he might get is the fact that he is kind of wrapped up in all this diddy stuff.
[00:16:05] Speaker B: Oh, shit. I've been out of loop on the diddy stuff, Kendrick.
[00:16:10] Speaker A: I get it. I get it. But he, he's kind of, he's not, like, he's not accused of anything, but he was, like, a diddy protege. So it's like, he's been around diddy for a very long time. And, like, so there's some level of, like, not that he, no one's saying he did anything, but it's like, what were you a witness to that you might have to testify in court about? So that would be, once again, I'd say the, the judge would look at Usher, and if there's anything, like, any, even, like, misdemeanor or something, he's like, uh, I'm gonna, we're gonna use your confessions pass.
[00:16:41] Speaker B: This is your confessions pass. We're gonna give you a clean slate. You're no longer associated with Diddy, right?
[00:16:46] Speaker A: Yeah. We as a society will, will mind wipe ourselves and just say, hey, yo. Yeah, I don't remember him really ever working with Diddy. And we'll all be, you know what?
[00:16:54] Speaker B: We should crack this wide open. Me and you. We should get in the lab and start watching. Every season as I'm making the band from MTV, that old fucking show, and just find the old diddy clues. He's in there. It's hiding them. It's gotta be there.
[00:17:07] Speaker A: You mean the man who, like, who got. So, because one thing that is known is that he has, like, anger issues. So the man who's, like, so upset about how the band was performing, he made them walk, like, 11 miles through New York to go get him cookies. And then when they got back to give him his cookies, he had those cookies on his desk. You mean we, none of us were like, this is a sociopath. Right?
[00:17:26] Speaker B: Like, that's what.
[00:17:28] Speaker A: Because it was a funny thing to do. On television, like, haha. Very funny, p. Diddy. But it's. But when you step back and have an idea of like, this guy kind of is weird, it's like, that sucks. That's a terrible thing. Why would you do that to people?
[00:17:40] Speaker B: Oh, because he's got the power. I mean, this. We could keep talking, but this is over.
[00:17:45] Speaker A: Here's what I want to say about Britney Spears. Yeah, weird thing. The weird thing I'll say about Britney Spears is I'm almost more of a fan of their, the covers that get done of their music.
[00:17:55] Speaker B: She is America's pop princess, but she is not. Yeah, that song will live in, I think you. Anywhere you go in the world, that song is fire.
[00:18:04] Speaker A: That's just the reality is like when you look at. Yeah, the bar that it sets is impossible. It's too high there. Like, once again, this is forever. Right? Like, that's the one of those things where it's like, as we move through time, right? And. And music, like eighties, nineties, today, pop music stations or whatever, as you get further and further away, the, like, songs keep falling off. But there are some songs that are definitively and forever. You have to play that song.
[00:18:33] Speaker B: They'll never go away.
[00:18:34] Speaker A: And. Yeah. Crosses that threshold in a way that, like, I don't. Toxic knocks on the door.
[00:18:40] Speaker B: I know it's not. It knocked, but it didn't get into the party.
[00:18:43] Speaker A: It's not in the party. So it's. Right. It was working, but it's just like.
[00:18:46] Speaker B: Do you know how hard it is to get on that list, though? Who's on that list? There's a couple Beatles songs, maybe, God only knows by the Beach Boys.
[00:18:53] Speaker A: You have thriller.
[00:18:54] Speaker B: Thriller by Michael Jackson.
[00:18:56] Speaker A: Like, yeah, it is a short, short list. Like, I would say nirvana's smells like teen spirit gets through Paradise City.
[00:19:05] Speaker B: I get on that. But we don't have to list them all. But there's hard.
[00:19:07] Speaker A: It's hard. That's what we're saying is like, that's the level. Yeah. Reaches. That's why once again, not only does.
[00:19:13] Speaker B: It reach it, though, nick, we have to establish it's in, like, the top 10% of that in that group.
[00:19:18] Speaker A: It is in its own vip. It not only is it in the club, it does have its own vip.
[00:19:23] Speaker B: Usher. Usher's chilling with the Beatles and the beach boys over there. Like.
[00:19:27] Speaker A: And even they're jealous. They're like, damn, he's really.
[00:19:30] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, no, yeah, we cooked up some shit, but that whole confessions album. Yeah, I would put the confessions album up against sergeant pepper, any of the Beatles albums.
[00:19:38] Speaker A: I don't care for me, you know, I'm not a Beatles fan, so I'm like, let's go. I would love to have this discussion with people. Be like, anytime someone's like, yeah, I just think, you know, I think the white album's made one of the greatest pieces of music ever. Have you listened to confessions by usher?
[00:19:52] Speaker B: You know, the song let it burn is on there, right?
[00:19:55] Speaker A: Yeah, that's just one of them. Bad girl is on there. Like, what are you talking about? We got a lot getting.
[00:20:02] Speaker B: Yeah, dude, this episode, this whole season was, I guess, just a test of our ability to, like, I said, what we.
[00:20:11] Speaker A: What we need to take away from this is that sometimes when you and I, like, we pick a topic that is like. I mean, like, it wouldn't be shocking if we did, like, 2004 movies, right? That would be we. And we might still, who knows? Because we gotta. We gotta. Once again, we gotta fill a lot of space. We gotta fill a lot of time. This is one of those situations, though, where it's like, hey, I know how much we want to talk about one thing in this, but that's kind of it, and it's not gonna make sense.
[00:20:38] Speaker B: Hey, for the record, all you listening out there, if you're still here and you're like, oh, usher, one, we just got out, if you're still here, this is episode number 499. And we got this far before we done. We did this.
[00:20:50] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:20:50] Speaker B: That's amazing.
[00:20:51] Speaker A: We've only apologized to you all, like, two or three times. And that's pretty good for a podcast done by two white guys.
[00:20:57] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:20:57] Speaker A: Most of our apologies are mostly just around us being like, we. We wasted your time. We. On this one. On this one. I think we. I think the other one, honestly, I think wasn't Sponge. It was SpongeBob. And that was episode 100.
[00:21:09] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:21:09] Speaker A: So we went 400 more episodes before we learned. So we're learning.
We're learning, but we're gonna fall. We're gonna fall short sometimes.
[00:21:18] Speaker B: That's why I'm locked it in Yeti.
[00:21:20] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. Oh, actually, I was kind of. I did want to maybe float on.
[00:21:23] Speaker B: No. Fuck.
[00:21:24] Speaker A: After all the notor. We haven't even mentioned it because it's like, congratulations on bring. Congratulations for being here, modest mouse.
[00:21:31] Speaker B: You are a fine song, but I don't know enough about you to rip on you.
[00:21:34] Speaker A: Anyone. Yeah, exactly. It's. It's. Yeah. Like, that's. That's what's going to happen. So thank you all so much. For listening to this episode of Friendly Come. Oh, by the way, or by the way, Cody, we aren't going to be doing best 2004 move or movies because that's the year anchorman came out. And there's nothing like Aviator is the big movie that won awards and that ain't no one going aviator against Anchorman.
[00:22:00] Speaker B: So shut up on this podcast.
[00:22:02] Speaker A: Yeah, you ain't gonna hear it from us, I'll tell you that much. We are.
[00:22:05] Speaker B: We are men of culture.
[00:22:06] Speaker A: Exactly. So I just wanna let you know, we will not be doing 2004 because, see, we're learning. We are learning. Well, thank, but thank you all so much for sticking with us and listening to this episode of friendly competition. If you want to help out shabboys or. Well, real quick, I think real quick note from us is that we're going to be taking a little bit of a break. Summer came along and we got summer plans. We're busy men. We have a lot going on.
[00:22:32] Speaker B: And also it's episode 500 and we don't know exactly what that means, but it has to mean something.
[00:22:37] Speaker A: Yeah, we cannot give you this again. This me. And also this week, that. The week, if you were listening to it on this Friday, this week is our four year anniversary as well. So like Cody and I, we had. We're going to cook up something big, but it's going to. That means it's going to take us a little bit of time. So we'll, I don't, we don't know exactly how long it'll be more than two. It'll be like at the shortest three weeks, but potentially longer. So don't just know. If you don't see us showing up in your feed, it's not because we're gone. We're still here. We still love you. We're still doing this.
[00:23:06] Speaker B: We're in the lab. We're cooking dog.
