What's one thing that the lack of driver improved about your journey and one thing you miss about having a driver behind the wheel?
Speaker B:Oh, and I miss nothing.
Speaker B:I love not having to drive behind the wheel.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Oh, my God, it was so.
Speaker B:I mean, God, you.
Speaker B:Many times we've gotten into Ubers, and we have, like, disgusting old McDonald's bags in the front seat, and the guy smells like.
Speaker B:Like, you just smoked, like, 16 joints, you know, as well.
Speaker B:Like, that's just not there anymore.
Speaker B:I love it, and I have the confidence that the machine knows how to drive better than the person does, actually, so I think I'm hooked.
Speaker B:Waymo is the future.
Speaker B:And you also don't have to tip, which is just amazing as well.
Speaker B:So, you know, you don't have to give a rating on it either.
Speaker B:You know, it's just.
Speaker B:It's great.
Speaker A:All right, three stars, Waymo.
Speaker A:Three stars.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:I mean, my brother, my wife, everybody, we all just absolutely loved it.
Speaker B:It was such a fun experience, and we tried to do it as much as we could.
Speaker B:All right, number two, Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster recently stepped out hand in hand for a dinner date in L.
Speaker B:A.
Speaker B:And if you could date one of the X Men, which X Men would it be?
Speaker A:Let me just Google.
Speaker A:Who are X Men?
Speaker A:Quick.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker A:I don't even know.
Speaker A:I think the people that come to mind for me are, like, Mike, Mark Ruffalo and Paul Rudd.
Speaker A:But they're not X Men.
Speaker A:Right there.
Speaker B:No, they're not.
Speaker B:They're technically not X Men.
Speaker B:And I wasn't actually going for the actor.
Speaker B:I was actually going for the.
Speaker B:The comic book character.
Speaker B:Like, would you date Wolverine?
Speaker B:Would you date Cyclops?
Speaker B:Would you date.
Speaker A:I don't know who they are, Chris.
Speaker A:I don't even know any of these people.
Speaker A:Like, I know that, you know.
Speaker A:Like, I know Mark Ruffalo played the Hulk.
Speaker A:Like, I guess him, but he's not even.
Speaker A:Oh, God, I don't know.
Speaker B:Yeah, no, you're fine.
Speaker B:You're fine.
Speaker A:Hulk is sitting for my personality.
Speaker A:I think, actually, like, now that I.
Speaker A:Now that I'm thinking about it, like, okay, yeah, the Hulk, sure.
Speaker A:Just.
Speaker A:Powerful person.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:So I'm thinking big, bad Colossus fits your personality type.
Speaker A:Who plays that?
Speaker A:Who's Colossus?
Speaker B:Nobody.
Speaker B:It's never been a big.
Speaker B:It's never been a big feature, but you should check him out.
Speaker B:I think he's your type.
Speaker B:Of course, he's all metal as well, so.
Speaker B:So that might.
Speaker B:Might provide a few difficulties for you.
Speaker B:But I think when he's non metal state.
Speaker B:I think you'd like him a lot.
Speaker A:Oh, my God.
Speaker A:All right, Chris Target just launched a new athleisure apparel line in conjunction with with creator Cassie Ho called Blog a Lotties.
Speaker A: ting Omnitok the blog back in: Speaker B:Oh, my God.
Speaker B:First of all, Blog A Lottie sounds like something I would 100% create, doesn't it?
Speaker B:Like that sound like a name that.
Speaker A:I thought of that immediately when I saw the press release about Blogilates.
Speaker A:I was like, oh, God, Chris is loving this so much.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker B:I know.
Speaker B:Yeah, I know.
Speaker B:Right?
Speaker B:And who knows how it's doing too?
Speaker B:But you know, it makes me curious about.
Speaker A:It's like sold out.
Speaker A:It's crazy.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:How much.
Speaker B:How much did they buy to, you know, that whole thing, like, you know.
Speaker B:I'm sure it is, but so this one was fun.
Speaker B:And so for me, I think I would.
Speaker B:I would debut a line of OmniTok inspired Canadian tuxedos because you asked me to go back in time because very.
Speaker A:On trend right now.
Speaker B:I know it's on trend.
Speaker B:And our first Omnitox followers were overwhelmingly Canadian because I think they like our sense of humor and our self deprecating sense of humor.
Speaker B:So.
Speaker B:So, like, I think I'd go with the Canadian tuxedo.
Speaker B:I'm not sure how much they're fans of Canadian tuxedos, but.
Speaker A:Well, Trudeau is available now.
Speaker A:Trudeau's available to be our spokesmodel, so.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker A:Let's just dive on him.
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker B:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:Good looking gentleman.
Speaker A:All right.
Speaker B:And Peter Yarrow of the folk music trio Peter, Paul and Mary.
Speaker B:I just lost my headphone.
Speaker B:Coincidentally, the first concert I ever attended died yesterday at age 86.
Speaker B:Yeah, it's very sad.
Speaker B:And it was literally the first concert I ever did.
Speaker A:I know that.
Speaker B:So I ask you, are you more Stuball was a racehorse or a Puff the Magic Dragon fan?
Speaker B:Because I know you're a big music.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:I was not familiar with Stuball, so I listened to that one last night.
Speaker A:But Puff the Magic Dragon for sure.
Speaker A:That just goes down.
Speaker A:Anytime I can talk about Jackie Paper and Hana Lee, I.
Speaker A:It just brings a smile to my face.
Speaker A:So for sure, pop the Magic Dragon, without a doubt.
Speaker B:I have no surprise there.
Speaker B:Panama Red.
