that was like

me mom's got artogonphantasmagoria! and she's a ! and she's pregnant with snow wolf foxlet piglets guinea pig mice bunnies! yes she lads up for more than what she yearns for! and she barely blames artogon for her new disease she just caught! i know deep down inside that sanitarium rubbed her citadels of the past yustispheria!

i

it's like

congratulations thank you very much %HESITATION so it's an honor to be on expn i've made i've been to hell with the late show i've peaked i'm have you had any advice from any of your

i am very nice conversation with dave and i asked a bunch of stuff

that may not even mean much to a general audience because at one point i said by thirty minutes in

i said do you mind me asking these questions and he said no no one's ever asked me these questions before

as a really no one's ever asked you like about producer position on or like where the desk angles or anything like that we don't know who would know to ask me who would care who would understand the answers i'm giving you

which was a relief to me it meant a lot to me because a sort of a gracious way of him saying

you you're asking the right

you're asking the question the host need

and then after that we spent about an hour together that he taught me how to run the freight elevator in the bill because that's how you get down from the offices to the is a really old theater in the nineteen twenties you have to take this old brass handled hand run like manually run

freight elevator down to the basement go through the tunnels and then come up behind the stage

and he showed me how to run the freight elevator and that was like

you know %HESITATION the previous owner of a car showing you how that the clutch sticks a little but he got the school that was really that was sublime i he got a new set

i do is being built right now actually the theater itself insolvent theater which isn't nineteen twenty seven beautiful theater coverage at the hammerstein of and c. b. s. has been great we're restoring it back to the nineteen twenty seven look and do you have any say on on what it's gonna look at you that i am i am %HESITATION deeply involved in the process

really asking about that right now

think twice about that amal

all i'm going to get that i'm having happened yet but it's no one can ever take over donald trump and if you seen all the back and forth between him and making kelly i have yeah you know what here's the thing they're very few things i go don't jump is right arm and when i do i go way what just happened and i just have a mini stroke why did i say dallas trump is right

uh but you can't prove he said any

and %HESITATION he says all kinds of things that you should be that people could reasonably be upset about

but now he's been kicked out of some of that on red state that erik erikson runs because %HESITATION they felt that it was sort of insulting degrading thing to say and don't drop us at all that the politics

nanna you're ready for the retirement home you old 0 year old granny! thanks jackson i'm so ready for it to move in with all the other old grannies.
