Sorry, I was having a mini SD card issue, but we're good to go now, bro.

**Jason Stewart** (0:52)
Shout out to all my SanDisk memory card users, all our first ADs, all of our field recorders. Who else out there?

**Chris Black** (1:03)
Yeah, I love a field recording, personally.

**Jason Stewart** (1:05)
A GoPro family?

**Chris Black** (1:07)
When it's buried in the mix, you know, but you get some texture. Oh, baby, that's what we're talking about.

**Jason Stewart** (1:12)
I didn't know you were a field user.

**Chris Black** (1:14)
Hey, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill. F-I-E-L-D, not F-E-E-L-D.

**Jason Stewart** (1:21)
I don't know how you spell it, Chris. I don't know how you guys spell it, but whatever you say, I believe it. So you were in London.

**Chris Black** (1:29)
Yeah, Polly, TJ, don't play with me. Yeah, I was in London and I woke up at 4, 10 a.m. Now I'm in beautiful Copenhagen. I'm finally getting that Danish summer weather that they keep talking about. And I've been here like five summers in a row and never experienced it, but today was the day.

**Jason Stewart** (1:45)
Okay, so you finally have some summer.

**Chris Black** (1:46)
Yeah, it's beautiful outside. It's like pretty unbelievable.

**Jason Stewart** (1:49)
Because before you only got like five seconds of it every time you would go to Copenhagen.

**Chris Black** (1:53)
Bring up my favorite band. Get me emotional.

**Jason Stewart** (1:56)
I will. Okay, so that's good. Are you going to ride a bicycle that has like some type of design element on it that I don't like?

**Chris Black** (2:05)
It has enough room for three people to sit on the front. No, I haven't ridden a bike yet actually. Today, I kept it local. But I did want to talk to you about something that happened to me because I went to April, which is a, you might know that coffee. They make beans. They roast their own beans. You may have seen it before. But they have a, they have a shop here. And I went in and got a, you know, a cortado regular style. And I ran to my friend Casper outside and he was like, oh, this is the most expensive coffee in Copenhagen. I was like, bro, okay, y'all, y'all. What does that really mean? Jason, oat milk cortado hittin for 14
Oh, no.

**Jason Stewart** (2:45)
Wow.

**Chris Black** (2:46)
No extra shot, nothing special, no syrups, no sugars, just a regular, regular cortado.

**Jason Stewart** (2:54)
So these must have been free range oats. These must have been grass-fed oats.

**Chris Black** (2:59)
But it did. I will say it was delicious. And I will probably go back.

**Jason Stewart** (3:04)
Really?

**Chris Black** (3:04)
But I just wanted to say, I think that's a world record for me personally.

**Jason Stewart** (3:10)
14 for the cortado is a little crazy. It's funny, Carolyn, her parents came over yesterday. We went to restaurant in Frogtown called Loretto. And thanks to the Loretto people for blessing us. Delicious, great meal. Friend of the show, Eric Warheim did their cacti landscaping.
Those botanist Twitter, those- He's not making-

**Chris Black** (3:32)
With a keen eye. That motherfucker ain't making enough money directing commercials for the Super Bowl. He's got to creep in on the-

**Jason Stewart** (3:39)
That one may have been more of a labor of love. It's cool if you just- Who knows? You could have contracted them full freight. And he's like, you want me to put in some succulents? 180 grand, we'll talk.

**Chris Black** (3:48)
You want the Warheim cacti? That's hitting a little different, guys. I don't know, Frogtown got that kind of bread.

**Jason Stewart** (3:52)
Yeah, I mean, I guess it's kind of like, if these really are expensive, crazy ones, what's stopping me from visiting this parking lot in the night and liberating some of these high level succulents? It's kind of like when you heard, when you're a kid and they're like, dude, koi fish, like you see it, like the pond at the, at Houston's, at the mall, they're probably worth like three grand each. And I was like, why, how come Chinese guys don't steal these every night? What's going on?
