- 3:54Speaker 1: from hell Show. I've listened to you guys for thirty
- 3:56Speaker 1: three years. Someone on the show said that it was
- 3:59Speaker 1: good to grow old with you, and that's kind of
- 4:02Speaker 1: sad but really sweet too. I totally agree with that.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Forty years is a huge achievement. I congratulate you on
- 4:07Speaker 1: the show success. I moved to Georgia seven years ago
- 4:10Speaker 1: for work, but I still listen to the podcast all
- 4:13Speaker 1: the time. I've played the Utah word of the day
- 4:15Speaker 1: for my coworkers and I just laughed my ass off.
- 4:17Speaker 1: It's brilliant and I love it. People here ask me
- 4:20Speaker 1: where I am from because of my accent, and they
- 4:22Speaker 1: always seem surprised when I say Utah.
- 4:25Speaker 2: I have an accent, by the way.
- 4:27Speaker 1: I say all of those dumb words. I guess I'm
- 4:30Speaker 1: really appreciative of the show. It's helped me be more
- 4:32Speaker 1: and more and less homesick at the same time. Love
- 4:36Speaker 1: hearing the local news data centers, drying up lakes, dirty politicians,
- 4:40Speaker 1: oh my. Anyhow, I guess the show will work outside
- 4:43Speaker 1: of Utah, especially to get you a snack you might want.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Thanks again, Rebecca.
- 4:48Speaker 2: These tastes like a cupcake without frosting.

- 4:56Speaker 1: get a cupcake. I went the fruit. See yet, nothing's
- 5:02Speaker 1: ever good enough for you.

- 5:20Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I guess those don't have frost.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Those don't have frost, which is why I will don't
- 5:24Speaker 1: get them.
- 5:24Speaker 2: That's why I would rather have a ding dog or
- 5:26Speaker 2: a cup.
- 5:27Speaker 1: And and and spit that out, throw that away. In truth,
- 5:34Speaker 1: you can't. You can't just be gracious. Well, these are delicious,
- 5:38Speaker 1: Thank you, Rebecca. These are delicious, not rofting. I like
- 5:45Speaker 1: the chips. The chips are quite good, I think, and
