[02:10:38] Give it up for him.

[02:10:42] He is very right about choosing therapists.

[02:10:47] I’m a therapist myself.

[02:10:49] I work well with certain clients, right?

[02:10:53] We have the best relationships.

[02:10:55] But everybody’s not for everyone.

[02:10:57] Like a shoe.

[02:10:58] Does the shoe fit?

[02:10:59] Is it comfortable?

[02:11:00] Is it more about running?

[02:11:02] Is it more about support?

[02:11:05] Is it comforting?

[02:11:07] Just like a shoe.

[02:11:09] Speaking of shoes.

[02:11:11] These joints is nice.

[02:11:13] Yeah, you know, you know, I’m just out here, you know.

[02:11:16] Yeah, you’re just out here.

[02:11:20] This guy’s got some running shoes on.

[02:11:22] Dang.

[02:11:23] I thought, you know, year five, I’d do it up, you know.

[02:11:25] Just a little bit.

[02:11:26] All right, year six, I’m coming in a tuxedo.

[02:11:28] Year five, man.

[02:11:29] Year five.

[02:11:30] Year six, I’m coming in a tuxedo.

[02:11:32] I’m coming in a tuxedo, too.

[02:11:34] What you mean?

[02:11:35] White or black?

[02:11:36] Black.

[02:11:37] White.

[02:11:38] All right, we can do this.

[02:11:39] Let’s do it.

[02:11:40] I don’t like Dalmatians, but it’s OK.

[02:11:42] We can do this.

[02:11:44] You going to pay for my tuxedo?

[02:11:46] Hell no.

[02:11:48] What’s wrong with you?

[02:11:49] You’re the genius, child.

[02:11:51] That don’t mean I got money.

[02:11:52] Just because you a genius don’t mean you got money.

[02:11:54] You’re smart enough to figure it out, genius.

[02:11:57] There’s a lot of geniuses that die, bro.

[02:12:01] And I might be one of them.

[02:12:02] Oh, oh.

[02:12:03] Steve Jobs?

[02:12:06] Man, that’s like one.

[02:12:07] That’s like one.

[02:12:08] OK.

[02:12:09] My mom says it’s a double echo.

[02:12:12] It’s a double echo?

[02:12:13] What, at home?

[02:12:14] I don’t know what a double echo is.

[02:12:15] Oh, it’s on the online.

[02:12:16] I know what that means.

[02:12:17] So maybe because you’re.

[02:12:18] Yeah, I got you.

[02:12:19] Yeah.

[02:12:20] That wasn’t me trying to tell them to get off the stage or anything, but we got to

[02:12:25] do it for the fans out there.

[02:12:33] OK.
