[3] Okay, let's get started.
[4] Hi, Lainey.
[5] Lainey, how are you?
[6] I'm great.
[7] How are you doing?
[8] Doing really well.
[9] So let's set up the story here because this is a little unusual.
[10] A lot of people sort of cold call in and we talk to them.
[11] You, I need to disclose the truth.
[12] I was chatting with backstage Beacon Theater.
[13] Is that correct?
[14] Yes, sir.
[15] Okay.
[16] Why don't you set the stage of what was the event?
[17] Do you remember the event?
[18] Because I do so many events.
[19] I do so much for so many people.
[20] Oh, God.
[21] What was the event?
[22] Love Rocks.
[23] Yes.
[24] Love Rocks.
[25] They had an amazing band for Love Rocks.
[26] It's a great charity where they feed people who are in need in Los Angeles and give them nutritious meals.
[27] I think people who are being hospitalized or in some kind of treatment.
[28] It's a great thing.
[29] they get really good people to come out and do it.
[30] I couldn't believe the talent that Love Rocks got out there at the Beacon Theater.
[31] It was insane.
[32] It was a surreal group of people.
[33] It was really cool.
[34] And so you and I are chatting backstage and I think you were saying you're a fan and I can't remember.
[35] I think I said, well, you know, you should call into the show sometime.
[36] Did I say it like that?
[37] I cheated, for sure.
[38] I think I was standing in there just like a babbling idiot, just nonverbal.
[39] I went fully nonverbal.
[40] And then Rebecca from Larkin Poe was like stopped you as you were trying to leave and told you that I was a gross fan of yours And what does gross fan mean?
[41] Because I didn't think I didn't hear the term gross fan Is that did she say gross fan?
[42] She might have said like aggressive or intense But well let me All the same Let me reveal something to you This is all a trick just to get your information So that we can check on you Because your intensity of your fanhood was such that we thought we need to get eyes on you yeah a welfare check we need yeah welfare check no not a welfare check well i mean if she's that big a fan of you i'm a little worried about you're concerned for her you're concerned for her employability in the world uh no i just think you know we have law officers watching so this whole thing's being monitored i just want you to know that right now where are you right now do you live in new york city no sir i'm in national i love the no sir yes i'm in i'm in the military You live in Nashville.
[43] And so do you work with Lark and Po?
[44] Because they're fantastic.
[45] They're very talented.
[46] Yes.
[47] I work with them and a couple other of touring camps.
[48] Okay.
[49] So you're with Lark and Poe, and they actually tried to convince me to bring my guitar out on stage and just wing it with them.
[50] Oh, you should have.
[51] And I was telling them, I'm too scared to wing it with Lark and Po or pretty much anybody.
[52] I'd need to, I'd want a day of rehearsal because I'm a comedian who pretends sometimes.
[53] to play an instrument.
[54] Just let go, man. No, that's not a good idea.
[55] Oh, what's the worst that could happen?
[56] Oh, I'll show it to you.
[57] Wank.
[58] Wank.
[59] Warkin 'poh, la, la, la. La La La la. Larkin Poe banished from show business.
[60] Larkin Poe, records plummeting.
[61] Ralkin Poe's back catalog destroyed.
[62] Oh, man. Larkin splits with Poe.
[63] Yeah.
[64] Poe won't speak to Larkin.
[65] don't speak to Poe.
[66] Colonel O 'Brien destroys Larkin and Poe.
[67] Larkin and Poe is now a law firm.
[68] Wait, a successful law firm.
[69] It turns out this is the best thing they ever did.
[70] There you go.
[71] Now they're back in the music business.
[72] Because they sued you.
[73] Funded by their law firm.
[74] Yeah.
[75] Look what you did.
[76] What a roller coaster that was.
[77] That was a crazy ride.
[78] I should have gone out there.
[79] Yes.
[80] So when did you get addicted to?
[81] I wouldn't, shouldn't say addicted to, but you became a fan through the podcast or through some of my.
[82] Jesus.
[83] Yeah.
[84] I'm sorry.
[85] She's clearly obsessed.
[86] Oh.
[87] And it's dangerous.
[88] Well, through the podcast, that means you like me and Gourley too, right?
[89] Oh, might be a little bit more so than con me. You could go.
[90] So I'll just show myself out.
[91] Well, I say that sensitively because isn't that, you know, the point of the podcast?
[92] Yeah.
[93] Kind of, yeah.
[94] No, it's true.
[95] A little bit.
[96] People like to see me inflate myself.
[97] float up to the ceiling and then these two like you had a pinata you bash me with sticks you're so good at setting it up you're a master at self deflation perpetual self deflation you brought her on to this show yes I brought you on to deflate me but late tell us about your life so you are with these different you work with several bands and you you hit the road with them is that right yes I I travel with them it depends on which camp I'm in but but I usually just take care of instruments.
[98] Any groups I'd know besides Lark and Po?
[99] Mm -hmm.
[100] Rieba McIntyre.
[101] Oh, my God.
[102] Wait, what was it the last one?
[103] Merrin Morris.
[104] Oh, wow.
[105] Jesus, this is legit.
[106] How did you, you seem very young.
[107] How did you get into this?
[108] This is a good gig.
[109] It's, I'm very lucky.
[110] It's very cool.
[111] I'm 25, yes.
[112] And I started when I was 21, 22 with Terry Clark.
[113] her tour manager at the time was a friend of mine and he just needed somebody to fill in on a weekend tuning guitars I was like I can do that so and then it kind of grew from there now when you tune a guitar this I know there's a little device now that goes on the neck of the guitar so you can tune it pretty quickly right and is it just that the musicians are too lazy to do it for themselves is that what's going on here I think it's a matter of cleaner transitions and making sure that the guitar stays in tune because they're subject to the elements outside, humidity, wind, heat, all of that.
[114] Nope, no, okay.
[115] I think Reba's lazy.
[116] I think Larkin and Power lazy.
[117] I mean, I think it would be very humbling and good for their fans to see them occasionally stop and tune their guitar in front of everybody.
[118] It shows them that they're down in the muck with the rest of us.
[119] Do you tune yours?
[120] Oh, they still see that.
[121] Hey, why can't, here's my question.
[122] You didn't answer.
[123] Please.
[124] Here's my question.
[125] I have six people tuning my guitar, one for each string.
[126] I have a guy for the low E and the high E. Two different guys.
[127] Two different E guys?
[128] Yeah, two different E guys.
[129] I'm not going to let my low E guy mess with my high E guy.
[130] I see.
[131] I keep them in separate rooms.
[132] I have six people each dedicated to one string.
[133] You got a trust rod guy?
[134] Oh, yeah.
[135] That's another guy.
[136] Yeah.
[137] I got a pick guard guy.
[138] I've got, I mean, yeah, what's that, what you said to me?
[139] A capo guy?
[140] Listen, how dare you jump in, Eduardo?
[141] Honestly, Adorno, that was out of line.
[142] That was out of line.
[143] Edward, we were having a really good time, and then you jump in with your capo bit, which, by the way, he tries every time, and it's never appropriate again.
[144] It's crazy.
[145] He's always going, what about the capo?
[146] And I'm like, I'm trying to talk to Francis Ford Coppola about Megaloplas and you keep saying capo.
[147] Oh, sorry.
[148] How do you, do you still have skills at your tech?
[149] Oh, you know about skills?
[150] Yes.
[151] to meet him a beacon theater.
[152] I meant to connect with him.
[153] What did you think of skills?
[154] Oh, he's awesome.
[155] And yeah.
[156] Oh, that wasn't skills.
[157] He's really cool.
[158] We were able to get along a lot.
[159] Skills.
[160] Skills has been with me since we did our big tour in 2010.
[161] And his job every night is I would open the show and do this song that would turn into a dance.
[162] And then I would throw my Stratocaster up in the air and he would catch it.
[163] and he caught it every night.
[164] It was absolutely...
[165] Were you worried?
[166] No. I could always get another guy.
[167] It's the Stratocaster.
[168] I was worried about the Strat.
[169] I mean, the strats, I think Strat's hard to find.
[170] But yeah, I just looked at skills, and I thought, you know what I mean?
[171] He'll probably be okay.
[172] He should probably wear a helmet.
[173] But, no, he's great.
[174] He's terrific.
[175] And he takes really good care of me. Sometimes my guitar is perfectly fine.
[176] And he'll say, let me take that guitar and give it a little refresh for you.
[177] And then I don't see it for a couple of months.
[178] That's my one complaint of skills.
[179] And I'm going to have to talk to him about it personally, but I like airing it here on the air first.
[180] Anyway, he's my guitar tech, and he goes everywhere with me, and I trust him with my life.
[181] He's a good man. Yeah, we had a lot in common having very similar artists we work for.
[182] You and Rebecca level.
[183] Oh, so you're saying that you also work with difficult and sane people.
[184] Is that what you're saying?
[185] I would say more so chaotic than anything else, kind of unpredictable.
[186] Yes.
[187] I am a chaos agent.
[188] Yes.
[189] I think I'm unpredictable.
[190] I'm a catalyst for joy, I believe.
[191] Oh, well.
[192] Well, anyway, let's just keep moving.
[193] I give and I give, but I never receive.
[194] Anyway, how do you spell your name, your first name?
[195] L -A -N -I.
[196] So it's just, do you say Lanny or Lainey?
[197] Lainey.
[198] Okay, that's a cool name.
[199] Where's the E?
[200] Yeah, that's a good question.
[201] She doesn't need it.
[202] Does this look like a girl who needs a need to be?
[203] I'm not really sure.
[204] How many people say Lonnie?
[205] Right?
[206] A lot.
[207] More than you think.
[208] You should put in a line over the A so people know that it's like the true A. You know that flat line they do that means it's a lawn.
[209] Yeah, Lanie.
[210] Because that would also give you kind of a cool name, you know, cachet.
[211] You're just a one -named Laney.
[212] Just change your name.
[213] How about Barbara?
[214] Gertrude.
[215] I actually like Laney a lot.
[216] Yeah, Lenny is a great name.
[217] so you are you're in charge of all the instruments have you ever lost an instrument has an instrument ever gone missing on your watch on my watch no but the artist has forgotten their instrument at home and realized when we got to the gig that has happened why did reba do that reba would never reba did it was reba did it was reba was the one night Reba was going to play the tuba.
[218] She's like, and now folks, my tuba, wait, where the hell?
[219] Sorry, that's my Reba impression.
[220] That's awful.
[221] Got a little hillbillyish.
[222] It's really bad.
[223] Everyone loves Reba.
[224] Everyone does love Reba.
[225] I wish I had a sitcom.
[226] I'll get one.
[227] It's going to be called Conan.
[228] I just thought of it.
[229] Yeah.
[230] What's the premise?
[231] My premise is exactly like Reba.
[232] Yeah.
[233] I have red hair and I'm living with my family and I don't know.
[234] They're a handful.
[235] You had a show named Conan.
[236] Oh, that's true.
[237] I forgot.
[238] No, I mean a sitcom.
[239] Okay, yeah.
[240] But is it going to be Conan, comma, the sitcom?
[241] No one calls a sitcom the sitcom.
[242] Yeah, what would your sitcom be called?
[243] Just Conan.
[244] Just Conan?
[245] Yeah.
[246] But that's confusing.
[247] Because you had a show named Conan for 11 years on TBS.
[248] So how would people know if they're watching the talk show or the sitcom?
[249] The Conan family.
[250] Okay.
[251] And then I play all the different characters.
[252] Green lit.
[253] It's so bad.
[254] What a bad idea.
[255] That's a great idea.
[256] I come home.
[257] Honey, I'm home.
[258] And then you cut to the top of the stairs and it's me just as my wife.
[259] Oh, Conan, you're so handsome.
[260] I thought it was going to be you come home and say, honey, I'm home.
[261] And there's just never anyone there.
[262] It's just always empty.
[263] They never existed.
[264] And there are 30 minutes of you just walking around the house, talking to yourself.
[265] Doing bids.
[266] That might fly.
[267] Greenlit.
[268] Lainie, are you regretting that you called?
[269] Yeah.
[270] I mean, not at all.
[271] This is the highest form of entertainment for me. Wow, we've got to get you outside.
[272] Touch grass, yeah.
[273] Here's my question.
[274] Nashville, very cool.
[275] Man, that town's blowing up.
[276] I mean, I was there, what, like 15 years ago, and then I came back, and they were two different places.
[277] The two times I've, there was a long window between when I've played Nashville, and it was two completely different places.
[278] It's like Atlantic City there now.
[279] Is it overgrown?
[280] Is it overgrown?
[281] Terrible, yeah.
[282] Okay.
[283] Did you grow up in Nashville?
[284] I did not.
[285] I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri.
[286] Okay.
[287] So you're kind of an interloper, too.
[288] You're kind of the problem.
[289] Do you know what I'm saying?
[290] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[291] I would say I'm the epicenter of the destruction.
[292] Yes.
[293] That's kind of what I was trying to get to.
[294] The beginning of the downfall.
[295] I think the beginning of the downfall was you misrepresenting the pronunciation of your name in the spelling.
[296] Sure, sure.
[297] And then you...
[298] It is spelled incorrectly.
[299] Then you move to Nashville and say, I can't believe all these people.
[300] moved to Nashville when hello well I brought them you came in a giant a giant mothership with hundreds of thousands of people well what's the plan okay and now I'm going to sound like your dad what's the long -term plan here that is that's tough to decipher when you're in the middle of touring because you love it so much and you don't necessarily want to leave but growth is inevitable or you'd hope.
[301] And so I think end goal would be working in sort of a production management role.
[302] So still touring, but in a higher bracket and also kind of less hands -on, I'd guess.
[303] Sounds like she's got it.
[304] I'm talking, first of all, you're 25 and you're a very impressive person.
[305] I think I didn't take you seriously because you said you were a fan.
[306] But first of all, I would say the fact that you love what you do and you're doing it successfully at 25 is all you have to know.
[307] The next step, at the risk of being sincere, the next step will become obvious to, but to be 25 and be doing what you love is magical.
[308] That's magical.
[309] And so you, I don't worry about.
[310] I think the next step will become obvious by the doing of it, don't you think?
[311] Yes, well, thank you.
[312] Yeah, I'm just really enjoying saying yes to opportunities that come my way and seeing what comes from them like this, for example.
[313] Hey.
[314] If I didn't have that job, I wouldn't be able to be talking to you right now.
[315] Well, I think it was really...
[316] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[317] Now, was it Larkin or Poe who really made this happen?
[318] Funny enough, they're actually not Larkin and Poe.
[319] It's actually the name of the, I think, fourth great -grandfather of theirs.
[320] Oh, what a cool name.
[321] Descendant of Edgar Allen, and so they just run with that.
[322] But Rebecca and Megan are the two girls, and Rebecca's the one who stopped you.
[323] And yelled at me to write down my name because I was nonverbal and couldn't collect myself.
[324] Yeah, that's right.
[325] She was yelling at you.
[326] Write down your name.
[327] Write down your name.
[328] Give it to Conan.
[329] I thought it was very strange.
[330] It was a very strange encounter.
[331] Yeah, it worked.
[332] Yeah, I know.
[333] Look what happened.
[334] We got to meet Lainey and have a nice conversation.
[335] But maybe now, Lainey, maybe I'm.
[336] should go out on tour as a musical act.
[337] What do you think?
[338] Absolutely.
[339] Yes.
[340] And then you should bring me in skills and we'll have a great time.
[341] Or maybe we lose skills.
[342] Oh.
[343] Well, I'm just saying, what does he bring to the table?
[344] Well, what are we going to do if you, I can't do anything?
[345] I mean, Matt, you play guitar.
[346] Yeah, Matt plays guitar.
[347] I can't do anything.
[348] You know, I'm terrible music.
[349] Oh, but you're very, your singing is very good.
[350] Why don't you show any what you can do?
[351] Go ahead.
[352] I'm a terrible singer.
[353] Say the sun will come out tomorrow.
[354] It's really good.
[355] The sun will come out tomorrow.
[356] Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow There's a sweetness to that I like you No I'm being serious You know what Her fuck you was more in tune And her son will come out tomorrow Her fuck you was perfect Were you being genuine but I retracted I'm so sorry I thought you were doing a thing No no no no There was an innocence to it Like someone discovering their voice for the first time It's because the song is like that But I am I can't I can't sing Sing a share song.
[357] Yeah, you love share.
[358] Can we hear a share song?
[359] They say our love won't pay the rent.
[360] Before it's earned, our money's all been spent.
[361] Okay.
[362] Lainey, uh, help me. What the fuck?
[363] In her defense, I think she has, she might have more experience saying, fuck you than singing.
[364] That's true.
[365] Sing fuck you.
[366] Fuck you.
[367] Oh, my God.
[368] You could shatter a glass with that.
[369] She's like, FAPU!
[370] She hits this impossible note and all the glasses in the neighborhood shatter.
[371] Oh, Fah, you know.
[372] Yeah, suddenly you're signed up for the Metropolitan.
[373] It's okay.
[374] Okay.
[375] I know that about myself.
[376] It's fine.
[377] You know yourself and that's your greatest quality.
[378] That's right.
[379] But I'm saying if you go on a musical tour, what do we do?
[380] Can you just pay me to do nothing?
[381] I do that now.
[382] That's true.
[383] Uh, Lainey, before we go, tell us a little bit about your everyday life.
[384] You know, give us a sense of who you are.
[385] All we've talked to is the working, uh, Lainey, who's yes sir, no sir, uh, three bags, full, sir.
[386] What do you do for fun?
[387] Ah, um, when I'm home, my routine is usually, you know, take care of my dog, work out, find some way to form income that day.
[388] Um, good Lord.
[389] So whether that's prep.
[390] Yeah.
[391] Yeah, very, very exciting.
[392] Okay.
[393] Oh, this is just full.
[394] Any criminal would say the same thing.
[395] Find some way to create income.
[396] Let's just let's just cut that.
[397] I know.
[398] I know if you got a stack of wallets behind it.
[399] Yeah, I know.
[400] But I play guitar.
[401] I like to hike.
[402] I like to be active as much as I can.
[403] I like to go to shows in town.
[404] Lainey, as you can tell, and you probably noticed when I came past the Lark and Poe dressing room, that I'm a workout fiend as well.
[405] Pause, pause, pause, pause.
[406] Anyway, what's your workout regimen?
[407] Me, I like weights.
[408] I like my cardio.
[409] Pause, pause.
[410] What do you like to do?
[411] What do you lift, bro?
[412] I usually, I put on a weighted vest.
[413] Like you've talked about recently, that Liza's done.
[414] I'll walk.
[415] I'll walk about four mile loop.
[416] Yeah, my wife wears a weighted vest.
[417] I also wear a weighted vest.
[418] My marital responsibilities!
[419] We all waited for it is.
[420] The punchline.
[421] Yeah, it was going to go three different ways.
[422] That was one of them.
[423] There was nine different ways.
[424] I was going to say the two of us were your weighted vest.
[425] No, no. That goes around my neck.
[426] That's called the lodestone.
[427] That sounds like I should get checked out.
[428] Hey, lodestone's not a bad name for a band.
[429] Ladies and gentlemen, lodestone.
[430] And so is that what you're going to tour as?
[431] I don't know yet.
[432] thinking about.
[433] I'd like to go out on the road.
[434] I really would.
[435] And you know what?
[436] I think I would trust you.
[437] I would trust you to run things on the road with skills.
[438] Okay.
[439] Would skills be upset if I put you, I would put skills beneath you.
[440] I would be in charge of skills.
[441] You're asking if you think he'd be upset.
[442] Yeah.
[443] Now skills I should point out is 79 years old and you were 25.
[444] But still, I mean, what is he?
[445] Well, skills is much more competent.
[446] Interesting.
[447] I'm going to leave that.
[448] And doesn't just tell you that he's looking for forms of income when that was the most awkward way she could have said that.
[449] It's true.
[450] That was really weird to you say it.
[451] No, I won't put down skills anymore because I love him too much and he's great.
[452] He's the best.
[453] But I'm glad we met.
[454] Now, can I just ask you about this meeting?
[455] Was I normal during the meeting or was I, you can say?
[456] Well, I'm actually really glad you asked because the point I met you at, you were pretty, I think, stressed in that moment you had a lot thrown at you from there all of a sudden giving you more tasks to do on stage and things to say and I thought that was really cool to see you know the humanity of it and the humility of it of you just being vulnerable and saying this is a lot and it's more than what I thought I was getting into and more than I asked for so you mean he was being a diva?
[457] Yeah no no I was I was Maria Kellis I wouldn't I wouldn't go there no you know what I remember is it was just it was like a lot things where you show up and you're told you're going to do one thing and then suddenly it keeps multiplying and what happens is anybody you just get a it's fear it's just fear yeah it's like oh shit I didn't know I was going to do that what if that doesn't go well like I had that one song I knew I was going to do up front and then introduce the show start the show but but then when there's more than that there's fear and that never goes away I've always waiting for that to go away and then I realized Jesus if it hasn't gone away now that is never going away you probably see that's cool like all the time yeah it was really a gift to see you to see that like because that fear still gives you drive and it's a reason to keep doing what you're doing and it was just cool the whole like celebrities they're just like us thing to see that somebody you look up to isn't too different some of them are not like us there's some soulless bastards out there and I found that out too yeah yeah we'll do the names on the next podcast to call in and just give the names but we all know who we're talking we all we all know who we're talking about Jason Bateman um oh come on Jason knows I'm kidding monster um it was very nice talking to you and finally getting the word out on Jason Bateman yeah it's time take them down yeah no ask anyone ask Will Arnette he'll tell you Monster Monster posing as a man It was lovely talking to you.
[458] I hope our paths cross again.
[459] Next time you see me backstage, I will say this.
[460] If it's before I've gone on, I will be nervous.
[461] Someone a long time ago told me if you're not nervous before you go on, something's wrong.
[462] So I think that's true.
[463] That's really cool.
[464] I think that's the good news and the bad news about this business.
[465] But very cool talking to you.
[466] I think show business and music is in good hands if you're out there.
[467] Thank you.
[468] And I do have a question if that's appropriate.
[469] Oh, yeah, of course.
[470] And a little bit of context that isn't exactly kind.
[471] I grew up kind of hating you, I guess.
[472] And then...
[473] Oh, I love the way this is going.
[474] Which I knew son on Matt would enjoy.
[475] Go on.
[476] And then around...
[477] Well, in college, my best friend introduced me to the podcast.
[478] And I absolutely fell in love with it.
[479] And so I was telling my mom about it.
[480] And I was saying, why did I hate him?
[481] Like, what's going on?
[482] Like, why didn't I never think he was funny?
[483] And she said that when I was a small child, so like toddler age, you would come on the screen.
[484] and terrify me and I would scream any time I saw your hair and so you didn't like me because as a child my hair I frightened you when you were in a formative stage you were very too young and you were frightened by the weird Muppet on TV that's what I've been told yes and I guess that grew and I never questioned it that's a great question Like when, oh, okay.
[485] That's not a question at all.
[486] The question would be, what, what tactics would you use to convince a child who is afraid of you to not be afraid?
[487] Well, that's really creepy.
[488] That's creepy on so many levels.
[489] I have some candy, little child.
[490] Get in my van.
[491] You like vans?
[492] Here's a red balloon.
[493] Oh, my God.
[494] You know what I've always noticed?
[495] I'll answer this seriously, even though this is an invitation to be arrested.
[496] I just did this last night because I was over at Sona's house and she has twins who are almost three.
[497] What I've always done is with little kids is because I'm six, four, and then my features and my hair can be frightening, actually to people of all ages, I get down on the floor and get lower than them.
[498] And animals and kids chill when you're smaller than they are.
[499] So I just get on the floor and I got on the floor of Mikey and Charlie's room, Sona, and you weren't there.
[500] And they both immediately just start like kind of jumping on me and bashing me, but laughing and having a good time because I'm now smaller than they are.
[501] You're on their level.
[502] I'm beneath their level and I'm beneath them and they knew I was always beneath them.
[503] So that's, I guess, my tactic.
[504] I apologize for that being creepy.
[505] I was unintentional.
[506] No, no. No, but I like how it started with I, for most of my life, hated you.
[507] and then there was a medium where I couldn't see you but could hear you but from a toddler's perspective you can be scary because you also do like close up shots of your face a lot, you dance around and I'm a little toddler I'd be like oh my god what's happening with this guy yeah he's very needy something's wrong with him well I appreciate the honesty of the question and I hope you can go back and review the best of some of my early work and maybe you reevaluate it oh I have an I adore it it's great And I realized what I've been missing.
[508] I realized what I was missing, yes.
[509] Oh, she's my favorite now.
[510] Yeah.
[511] Okay.
[512] Well, Lennie, we're going to jump off, but really nice to talk to you again.
[513] I'm glad this worked out.
[514] My best to the ladies of Lark and Po.
[515] And thank you so much for calling in.
[516] This is cool.
[517] Well, thank you.
[518] I really appreciate it.
