  Speaker 1: her on for this episode literally years ago, and so
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: we're making good on that promise, live and in the flesh. Uh,

• 1:39
  Speaker 1: something I tweeted earlier, just a couple of hours ago,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: in the wee hours of the morning. Please, I said,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: pretty wild that A Goofy movie opens with Max goof
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: having a wet dream. I don't think that's pretty wild.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: I think that's pretty epic. Did rock? It's actually pretty cool? Yeah?
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Why can't I've let me have a wet dream the
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: only time I've paid in my sleep? No, wait, that's
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: not what a wet dreams? All that does that I
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: have peed in my sleep. And I was sixteen, Okay,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: too old, too old, I was. It wasn't because I
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: was horny, It's just because I was depressed. I was like,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: why even go to a toilet? I got dumped by
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: a saxophone player and I pissed myself. I know, I
• 2:29

• 10:45
  Speaker 1: my name is Jamie Loftus. I recently made something called
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Lolita podcast. It doesn't reflect who I really am, but
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: that's okay. Recent is a relative term, so yeah. I mean,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: if we're talking here to like the Ming Dynasty, I
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: guess it's pretty up to date, but like in terms
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: of what I'm currently doing, it there's very little insight.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: But maybe I'll change that soon. For some reason, when
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: you said Ming Dynasty, I thought you were going to
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: say something about Minions the Minion dynasty, which was a
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: very evil rain. I'm sure we can all remember, Oh
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: my god, my mom made the weirdest Minions joke. Okay,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: this is what I choose to go out on. My
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: mom made the weirdest Minions joke the other day because
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: she got I tweeted this a few days ago. But
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: I do think it's true that showing my mom the
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: rise of group this summer like literally changed the course
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: of her entire life. Because she's she's a second grade teacher.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: She got so many Minions holiday gifts from her students,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: a full size Nit Minions afghan it's huge, um, a
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: ton of Minions, chia pet like all this stuff. And
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: then yesterday her friend, her like teacher friends, sent her
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: a huge Bob the Minion as well as um some sausages,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: and my mom kept like putting the sausages next to
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Bob as if to say, look at Bob's hog. And
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I was like, Mom, are you do you recognize what
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: you're doing? She's like Bob's Hog. Yeah, she's on break.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: She's making Millions dick jokes. Basically, she's making Minions dick jokes.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: And we don't need to be proud of her for that,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: but you can be a chop. I was. I was, truly,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, we've come to an age where
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: I am scandalized by her, and that's kind of beautiful.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: I love that. I love that for you. I love
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: that for Jill, I love it for Bob. And it's
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: huge Hog and Bob. Oh my gosh, Bob's hogs Hog Look.
