- 1:50Speaker 2: trying to be quiet so they don't freak out.
- 1:52Speaker 1: I'm gonna listen when you end up sprinting to the bathroom.
- 1:55Speaker 1: And by the way, you probably should do that before
- 1:57Speaker 1: everybody else does. Just keep me on the phone.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Are you not gonna keep What the heck are you

- 2:26Speaker 1: be like a work bonding experience. Okay, anybody's in the bathroom,
- 2:30Speaker 1: you're all going at once. It's like one of those
- 2:32Speaker 1: trustful exercises. But draw on the toylet'hut just shut up.

- 2:47Speaker 2: a manager.
- 2:47Speaker 1: I get it. You don't like the idea. The only
- 2:50Speaker 1: reason I came up with it, though, is because I
- 2:51Speaker 1: just finished this life positivity book by Kanye I don't
- 2:54Speaker 1: care way. Did you know that when he interrupted Taylor
- 2:57Speaker 1: Swift at that award show he just wanted to tell

- 3:06Speaker 2: There is no optimism this. I have to tell everybody
- 3:08Speaker 2: what's going on so they can compare it. You know,
- 3:10Speaker 2: some people could get really sick.
- 3:11Speaker 1: What if I run to the grocery store and buy
- 3:14Speaker 1: three pounds of shrimp? Wait, want to bring it back?
- 3:17Speaker 1: You feed it to everybody, and then they're gonna blame
