Callaroga.

2
00:00:03.799 --> 00:00:11.640
Shark Media are Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.

3
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:14.160
Good feisty one today, a lot of fighting I always

4
00:00:14.359 --> 00:00:17.320
like that, and a reminder I'll have episodes all through

5
00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:20.480
the holiday weekend. I'm planning on recording them all right now.

6
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:22.399
If my voice holds out, I've got one of those

7
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:25.280
old fashioned colds that we used to get before COVID,

8
00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:28.079
remember those, I've got one. But I've written all the

9
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:30.559
weekend scripts. A lot to tell you about, including a

10
00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:34.079
lengthy Anthony Jeslnick article in Cracked that I've shared in

11
00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:36.840
the Facebook group Daily Comedy News Podcast group. Please feel

12
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:39.920
encouraged to join us. Let's start with Dave Chappelle, an

13
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:44.560
article in the San Francisco Gate byline by Dan Gentille.

14
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:47.600
I believe Dan has a little history with Dave, which

15
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:50.320
he writes about in the piece. Dan writes, so someone

16
00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:52.880
who has covered Chappelle extensively, to the point where the

17
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.920
comic briefly made my stories a part of his act.

18
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:59.719
Chappelle was at the Paramount Theater on Saturday night. He writes,

19
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:02.000
A look like Dave was poised to go into grievance mode,

20
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:04.239
leaning into his heel persona one fan behind me in

21
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:06.680
line outside the venue remarked that he was hoping we'd

22
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:08.959
hear the old Dave Chappelle, and at first it didn't

23
00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:12.840
seem like it. Chappelle, who has banned cell phones. We've

24
00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:15.519
talked about that, apparently want a step further. This time.

25
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:17.920
You weren't allowed to bring pens or notebooks.

26
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:18.359
Wow.

27
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:22.879
Dan writes, three different security guards disarmed him from his

28
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.120
journalistic weaponry. The fact that I was on assignment didn't

29
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:29.599
dissuade them, no media at all. They said, Dave, dude,

30
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:31.879
this is not going to help you. This is not

31
00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:34.040
going to help you. Dave Chappelle, This is not going

32
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:36.519
to help you. You do not want the media to

33
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.519
turn on you, Dave Chappelle. I am warning you lovingly.

34
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.200
You don't want the media to turn on you. After

35
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.599
briefly you're visiting the Netflix controversy, Chappelle turned to politics,

36
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:48.239
noting that the transgender community will be nostalgic for his

37
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:51.519
jokes once Donald Trump actually begins taking action. But aside

38
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:53.799
from a couple non sequitor slurs throughout the night and

39
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.480
a callback involving the state of Gaza, Chappelle kept the

40
00:01:56.480 --> 00:01:57.799
promise he made it at the end of the closure

41
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.879
that he was done making trans jokes. Interesting note here,

42
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:03.680
Dan Wrights. Those who have seen Chapelle live had heard

43
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:05.959
most of this material. He shared a bit about San

44
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:08.599
Francisco needing a batman with a punchline about teaching the

45
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:11.120
homeless community the thriller dance. But unlike in the past

46
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:14.719
we spoke about SF, this time it felt much more affectionate.

47
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:16.719
Throughout the night, he peppered the set with compliments to

48
00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:19.360
the Bay Area, noting that after Chappelle' show ANDed, he

49
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:21.479
spent most of his time in San Francisco. Now, this

50
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:25.120
next section has leaked out before. Despite the ban on pins,

51
00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:26.680
I mean, what are they gonna do? I mean, you

52
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:29.319
could smuggle some coal in your crotch and right on

53
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:31.159
your arm. You're not gonna be able to stop this.

54
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:34.879
Dave Chappelle spoke about the twenty four presidential election, saying

55
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:38.199
the whites are back. Chappelle reiterated his support for the

56
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:41.560
Democratic ticket, saying he didn't believe in celebrity endorsements, but

57
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.479
that he voted for Kamala Harris. He also talked about

58
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:46.560
how he knows Elon Musk and thought it was a

59
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:49.599
stupid idea by Twitter, but boy was he wrong. Dave

60
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:52.159
joked about that they're eating the cats and said he

61
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:54.680
drove to a Haitian restaurant daily in support and he

62
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:56.240
didn't know what the meat was, but it sure did

63
00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:59.520
fall off the bone. That is a quality joke. Dan writs,

64
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:02.400
I'm happy he gave critics breath. The sees me nothing

65
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:04.439
to complain about. It was a pretty great show. Chappelle

66
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:07.520
and relaxed storyteller mode. No punching down, no knife twisting,

67
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:11.240
no dying on hills of bad opinions. He seems subdued, empathetic.

68
00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:15.000
The old Chappelle. Anthony Jelsinick is the guest on this

69
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:18.840
week's Mark meron a very good listen, Such a good listen.

70
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:21.000
I went through the extra step of actually pulling the

71
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:25.199
audio clip Number one here Mike's Anthony Jelsinick quit stand

72
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:26.520
up Eventually.

73
00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:28.280
If I'm done with stand up, I might leave. I

74
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:29.800
might maybe Chicago.

75
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:31.039
Done with stand up?

76
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:34.439
Yeah? Do you you think that way? Because I think

77
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:36.439
in terms of the hour. So if I'm like, I

78
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:38.560
don't have another hour in me, then I'm done.

79
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:41.120
I know, But don't you feel that after every hour?

80
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:47.280
I not really like halfway through this hour after this tour,

81
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:48.960
I was like, this might be it. And then as

82
00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:50.599
I finish, I'm like, you know what, what if I

83
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:53.680
do it again? Like, wouldn't that be great? And this

84
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:55.800
is my fifth one now. Yeah, so I'm like, if

85
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:57.800
I could do a sixth, you know what would that

86
00:03:57.840 --> 00:03:59.719
look like? And that's fascinating to me.

87
00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:02.199
It seems neither comedian is a fan of what Joe

88
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:05.319
Rogan is doing these days. Maren discusses whether or not

89
00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:06.680
he would play at the Mothership.

90
00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:08.919
People are like, would you ever do the Mothership? I

91
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:11.639
wouldn't even think about it. But I don't have any

92
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:14.719
reason to perform for those guys. How much do I

93
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:17.480
have to hate myself? But I imagine you have some crossover.

94
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:20.639
Sure. I went toward the Mothership because I knew Curtis,

95
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:22.000
the guy who was running the place at the time,

96
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:24.399
from the store he went over there. Yeah, yeah, I

97
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:26.720
was doing I was doing a couple of shows on

98
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:29.079
a Sunday and I went over there for a tour. Yeah,

99
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:31.040
And I was like, this place is beautiful, it's great,

100
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.720
it's set up as a great comedy club, but it's

101
00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:37.279
too easy. Yeah, you know, it's like you can't fail there.

102
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:38.040
I could.

103
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:40.600
They just want to hear like the bad words. I'm

104
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:42.480
sure they would be so happy to see you there

105
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:45.480
that you would destroy. Yeah. I can't imagine Joe Rogan's

106
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:46.720
ever had a bad set.

107
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.399
At that comedy club because they're also they're happy to

108
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:50.639
be part of the thing.

109
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:54.120
And an interesting take here from Anthony J. Justinic about

110
00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:55.000
playing arenas.

111
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:57.600
I don't know why people go to arenas to see bands.

112
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.639
It's exactly a terrible way to see anything. I get

113
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:02.920
why the comics want to do it. I don't understand how.

114
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:05.160
I don't understand a Madison Square Garden has become this

115
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:08.360
like this new club like I got to do I

116
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:12.680
was lucky enough to do uh not Sydney Opera House,

117
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:15.000
so we've not got to do that too. But Carnegie Hall. Yeah,

118
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:17.040
I was so happy. Yeah I did that. And I

119
00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:18.879
go and they're like, the next time you come to

120
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:20.879
the New York Comedy Festival, well have you do Madison

121
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:22.439
Square Garden? Yeah? And I was like, why do I

122
00:05:22.439 --> 00:05:24.360
give up about Madison Square? Like this is what this

123
00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:27.000
is the it for me. Carnegie is the coolest place

124
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:28.959
I could be in and it was amazing. I loved it.

125
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:30.759
That like, not from now on, I want to do

126
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:33.160
just like nicer theaters. Yeah, you know, I don't ever

127
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:35.560
want to do an arena ever, but that's a nice theater.

128
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:37.199
Is is a lot of fun for me.

129
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:39.160
I mentioned at the top. There's a lengthy interview with

130
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:42.160
Anthony in Cracked. I've shared the link in the Facebook

131
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:45.759
group Daily Comedy News podcast group. Jessa Nixt said, even

132
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.040
in my set now, if there's one joke that's way

133
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:50.079
too hardcore, and that's okay. I just don't want to

134
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:52.160
do a set full of that. But it's nice to

135
00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:54.199
know the audience thinks that could happen at any time.

136
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:56.600
I feel great. It's a weird place to be in

137
00:05:56.600 --> 00:05:58.600
because I did this tour for two years or recorded

138
00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:00.399
in April. I'm one of those guys you could either

139
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:02.879
watch a special a million times and edit and perfect it.

140
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:05.360
We can watch it twice and say get out of here.

141
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:07.199
I can't look at it again, and I'm the latter.

142
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:10.639
Johnny Mack is the same way. What's the line perfect

143
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:12.839
is the enemy of good? Something like that. I alsolect

144
00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:15.639
the general pattern quote A pretty good plan violently executed

145
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:17.800
now is better than a perfect plan. Next week. Sometimes

146
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:20.279
you just got to hit publish. Jesslink says a morning

147
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:21.920
that I can't do these jokes anymore. I just had

148
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.360
a great run in Europe though, so much fun. I'm

149
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:25.959
excited for the special to get out there and see

150
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:27.759
what the public thanks doing the show for two years.

151
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:29.600
It's people buying a ticket and coming to see it.

152
00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:31.600
But when you're just checking on Netflix and you don't

153
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:33.399
give a hoot, that's when you really find out how

154
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:35.480
good it is. And I'm excited for that. I'll find

155
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:39.439
out if I've ruined people's thanksgivings a lot more with

156
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:41.800
jessin Nick and not in Tomhrow's episode, but starting on

157
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:45.600
Friday again. The full article there is in the Facebook group.

158
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:49.680
I have to remember to watch James Acaster. As I

159
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.240
talked about over the weekend, HBO stopped releasing things at

160
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:55.079
ten pm on Saturday night. Not a good time, Tuesday

161
00:06:55.160 --> 00:06:58.040
night good time. There seems to be some sort of

162
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:01.079
beef happening. I'll source Vulture here, and I have to

163
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:05.800
make sure I understand it. Kendrick Lamar dropped an album

164
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:10.160
and apparently took a shot at comedians. I believe mister

165
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:13.800
Lamar has a line about making Cat Williams proud. Kendrick

166
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:16.360
then raps, don't let no white comedian talk about no

167
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:19.680
black woman. That's law. He does not specify which white

168
00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:23.839
comedian he's referring to. Vulture speculates it could be Gary Owen,

169
00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:28.279
possibly Matt Rife, but people seem to believe it's Andrew Schultz.

170
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:32.879
On the July seventeenth episode of Andrew's podcast, he made

171
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:35.240
a few jokes about his guest description of a black

172
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:38.600
girlfriend effect, in which a non black man, quoting Vulture here,

173
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:41.240
dates a black woman and adopts a new style fade

174
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:44.319
haircutting beard. Schultz at that time said they grow the

175
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:47.319
beard because they need a cushion when they get slapped clip.

176
00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:51.920
When viral online the guests apologize, Schultz refused to apologize.

177
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:57.560
Live streamer Academics said he was speaking to Schultz. Apparently,

178
00:07:57.639 --> 00:07:59.800
Schultz may have said, is this guy too woke to

179
00:07:59.839 --> 00:08:03.199
un stand a joke? We'll keep an eye on that one, hey,

180
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.399
Just for laughs, announce their dates for July. We get

181
00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:10.279
to go back to Montreal July sixteenth to the twenty seventh.

182
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:12.839
Super awesome to see that one coming back. And they're

183
00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:15.720
bringing back the annual Comedy pro Conference, and I'm looking

184
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:19.720
forward to see who they announce. Let's stop off on

185
00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:23.279
gossip Corner from the Modesto Bee. Bill Burr was in town,

186
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:26.800
The Modesto Bee says in one post, Bill Burr records

187
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:29.680
himself in front of our iconic arch as he declares

188
00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:32.240
that all towns should have something like it. Burr reads

189
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:35.960
the motto water wealth, contentment Health, Burr says, not saying

190
00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:37.879
it's true, not saying I felt that one is up here.

191
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:40.159
It's funny to say water health, contentment, health. And I

192
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:43.000
have an f in McDonald's right next to it. Actor

193
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:48.120
Jeremy Renner commented, my hometown. Another post chronicled Bill Burr's

194
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:50.759
day out in Modesto. Apparently he stopped for breakfast at

195
00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:53.480
Good Day Lucille and he had a south By Southwest

196
00:08:53.559 --> 00:08:57.360
biscuit sandwich. He then checked out the Modesto Children's Museum.

197
00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:00.480
He took a photo with the sign for Johanna's Bail Bonds.

198
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:03.399
People on the Modesto Reddit page said of the show,

199
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.159
he killed it. He knew it was a smaller venue,

200
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:06.919
so we barely stuck to a set list and ad

201
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:09.120
libbed the whole time. But in the best way possible.

202
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.639
Oh comedy newbie, I bet you he didn't you believe

203
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:17.360
what you would like? Also from Gossip Corner, Adam Sandler

204
00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:20.320
walking around New Jersey. Boy, how exciting He took a

205
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:23.559
few moments to post with the very busy Hackensack Police.

206
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:27.759
They posted Hackensack pde had an amazing time providing security

207
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:30.159
for Adam Sandler while he filmed this new movie Happy

208
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:33.399
Gilmour too. Our officers are huge fans and we're thrilled

209
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.799
to see the magic of Hollywood and action. Thank you

210
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:38.720
Adam for bringing your talent and humor to Hackensack. Before

211
00:09:38.759 --> 00:09:41.600
I get letters, half my family's cops. So I don't

212
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.799
want to think I'm anti police, but I also live

213
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.360
in the suburbs, and I see what happens with overtime.

214
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:50.480
Providing security for Adam Sandler is a cushy gig. Sorry,

215
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:54.440
angin about half my Family's Cops. Friend of the Pod

216
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:57.320
Jason Sinnaman wrote in The New York Times about hilarious

217
00:09:57.720 --> 00:10:00.039
He was on a zoom call with Craig Erwitch, the

218
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:02.759
president of the Disney Television Group, who said, we're not

219
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:04.639
trying to do you know, one hundred things. We're trying

220
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:06.799
to do a few carefully selected things that we really

221
00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:10.240
believe in that I think, quite frankly helps quality control.

222
00:10:10.840 --> 00:10:14.080
Craig says he's open to sharing viewership data with comedians,

223
00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:17.399
something that Netflix has hesitated to do. Jason writes frustrated

224
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:19.600
some comics who are hoping to understand their audiences for

225
00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:22.120
purposes of where to tour, how to negotiate their next deal.

226
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:25.519
That is a major reason a lot of comedians love podcasting,

227
00:10:25.639 --> 00:10:28.000
by the way, so Gora has talked about that at length.

228
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.320
Craig also promises to use old fashioned marketing muscle. We

229
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:32.879
don't believe that it's just up to you, you know,

230
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:34.639
the algorithm to kind of get you to the right time,

231
00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:36.960
in the right place. They sure push the heck out

232
00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:39.480
of gaff Again. I'm not sure there's any post launch

233
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:41.919
buzz on the Gaff Again special, but there sure was

234
00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:44.919
in advance. Gaff Again on the Zoom said from a

235
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:48.440
promotional standpoint, there's no comparison. I was grateful for the opportunity,

236
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:50.840
but it felt more like an experiment, whereas Hulu has

237
00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:52.679
a twelve month to two year plan. Yeah, because they

238
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:55.840
also own ABC. They also own ESPN and the Disney products,

239
00:10:55.840 --> 00:10:58.320
so you could very easily get Jim gaffikin on Monday

240
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.600
Night football. I can absolutely see from an artist standpoint

241
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:04.039
where that is very appealing. Burwitch was asked if you

242
00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:07.440
would ever program something like Dave Chappelle's The Closer, and

243
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:09.360
he said, it's probably not what we would want to do.

244
00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:12.559
What we would consider is does it feel gratuitous and

245
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:16.240
purposely hate fuller provocative or purposely controversial. Now, it would

246
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:18.360
probably stay away from that. This is not to do

247
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:20.600
with Disney. We want these comedies to be enjoyed by

248
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:22.960
as many people as possible, and we don't feel the

249
00:11:23.000 --> 00:11:26.559
needs of purposely court controversy to get attention. So let's

250
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:29.360
look at the list again. Zorn A garg Andrew Santino,

251
00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:32.080
A tail Lane, Sebastians. On that list, you're like, okay,

252
00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:34.360
I see what they're doing. Makes sense. That is your

253
00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:36.960
comedy news for today again. I got an episodes all

254
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:39.519
week and for you, you have an awesome Thanksgiving. If

255
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:42.440
you skip tomorrow's episode, I understand, spend some time with

256
00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:45.000
your family watching the football, eat some turkey. I'll be here.

257
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:47.200
You can listen to two episodes on Friday. That's allowed,

258
00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:48.759
all right, see you tomorrow. We're not
