  SPEAKER_00: Why is it the first day when it begins raining, there's just like 50 accidents on every freeway.
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_00: Why the fick is nobody ever ready for the rain?
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_00: Why is that like okay, nobody has good tires?

• 10:00
  SPEAKER_00: I don't get it.
• 10:02
  SPEAKER_00: I think I think we like the way the rain looks on the freeway when we're just all freaking zooming.
• 10:08
  SPEAKER_00: It just looks like all of us are just walking on water.
• 10:12
  SPEAKER_00: Like we're all just freaking just like jet skiing on the freeway.
• 10:17
  SPEAKER_00: Like we're out on the lake, and you're just like frig.

• 11:08
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
• 11:08
  SPEAKER_00: Is that why we drive so fast in the rain?
• 11:10

• 15:58
  SPEAKER_00: Like I when when do you stop saying new job when you get a new job?
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_00: We'll talk about that in a second.
• 16:02
  SPEAKER_00: I'm driving to my new job, and this one exit you have to get off at because the other exits are so AV.
• 16:08
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_00: This is the exit that takes me exactly where I need to go.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_00: It's always so busy.
• 16:16
  SPEAKER_00: Like, I'll leave, and it and it takes me like just over 20 minutes to get to work every day.
• 16:22
  SPEAKER_00: Not bad.
• 16:23
  SPEAKER_00: But like I could spend 20 minutes on just this off ramp.
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_00: And it's not I'm not exaggerating.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_00: So I have to leave like at five to get to work at six because I'm scared of this off ramp.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_00: Pisses me off.
• 16:43
  SPEAKER_00: And it's also crazy too because it's one of those lanes, it's like a three-lane.
• 16:46
  SPEAKER_00: So obviously the left and the right lane turn left and right, and the middle one goes straight left or right.
• 16:52
  SPEAKER_00: But why do people make it so weird when you're turning left?
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_00: Or you're turning right, and they like cut in front of you.
• 16:59
  SPEAKER_00: He's like, brother.
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_00: Buddy.
• 17:07
  SPEAKER_00: I get the outside lane, bud.
• 17:11
  SPEAKER_00: Isn't somebody calling you bud in real life?
• 17:13
  SPEAKER_00: Like so and something.
• 17:14
  SPEAKER_00: Does he call you bud?
• 17:16
  SPEAKER_00: If it's like a dude and he calls you bud, it's like I'm not your not your freaking bud.
• 17:23
  SPEAKER_00: Bud?
• 17:25
  SPEAKER_00: Not your freaking bud?
• 17:27
  SPEAKER_00: What am I?
• 17:28
  SPEAKER_00: A flower?
• 17:30
  SPEAKER_00: Freaking bud?
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_00: Sorry.
• 17:33
  SPEAKER_00: A lot of random thoughts.
• 17:34
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm also tired.
• 17:35
  SPEAKER_00: I'm freaking exhausted.
• 17:37
  SPEAKER_00: I'm probably gonna finish the rest of this pod on the way to above the iron tonight.
• 17:41
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know if I'm gonna be able to to to record another 12 minutes.
• 17:44
  SPEAKER_00: I might take a I might take a little nap.
• 17:47
  SPEAKER_00: Probably going to work.
• 17:50
  SPEAKER_00: Because if the exit isn't that busy, like right now, it wasn't that bad, and I just was able to get off, and everything I said basically didn't come true at all.
• 18:01
  SPEAKER_00: Now I'm here way early, and I could just friggin' sleep in the car for 15-20 minutes and then go into work.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_00: And still be in early, you know, because I'm I'm way early.
• 18:15
  SPEAKER_00: I feel like there were so many little tangents I went on.
• 18:17

• 18:20
  SPEAKER_00: You know?
• 18:21
  SPEAKER_00: How do you how do we get how do we get back to where we were?
• 18:24
  SPEAKER_00: I've grown so much as a person.
• 18:26
  SPEAKER_00: In five minutes, you know, I don't remember how to get back.
• 18:31
  SPEAKER_00: Um prick.
• 18:37
  SPEAKER_00: We'll just move on.
• 18:39
  SPEAKER_00: It's not like I have a script or anything for this show.
