All right, everyone, we have a quick ad for HubSpot, but I want to let you know, I actually use HubSpot and I use their sales tool, which is what this ad is for. HubSpot sales platform, it makes it just easier to sell stuff, to do it faster, to look at your pipeline, to see what sales are gonna happen. Just prospect to cold outreach and get more customers faster and easier. Plus, it's easy to learn and free to start. So you guys can check it out, hubspot.com/sales.
All right, we're live, we're good.

**Shaan Puri** (0:34)
Yo, you're in Utah.

**Sam Parr** (0:37)
Yeah, I am, I'm in Salt, not, what's the other place? Park City, I'm in Park City.

**Shaan Puri** (0:45)
Nice, how's it been so far? Your great adventure has begun.

**Sam Parr** (0:49)
It's okay, I definitely want to just be in my home, but it's okay.

**Shaan Puri** (0:54)
Dude, you're like two days in.

**Sam Parr** (0:57)
Yeah, it's good, like, it hasn't hurt productivity, but I could see how it could. It could.

**Shaan Puri** (1:03)
Meaning what? Why would it hurt productivity? Because you're trying to dunk?

**Sam Parr** (1:07)
We should talk about that in a second. Okay, so I don't want to make this too much about me, but I'm going to because that was kind of cool.
This place I'm saying had a basketball court and I posted on Twitter dunking. Shockingly close, right?

**Shaan Puri** (1:20)
Very close.
If you had told me, hey, can Sam almost dunk? I would have been like, what are you talking about? No, no, Sam can't almost dunk, but you can almost dunk. You're like very, very close, which was extremely surprising to me.

**Sam Parr** (1:33)
I don't think it's a matter of jumping height that's preventing me anymore. I think it's a matter of maybe, I think I'm a little chubby. I could lose, if I lost 10 pounds, I'd get it, but it's just a strict, I'm not coordinated enough, the way that I'm doing it.

**Shaan Puri** (1:47)
All the limbs have to move in sequence.

**Sam Parr** (1:50)
I'm running and just stopping and using two feet and just like.

**Shaan Puri** (1:53)
Right.
No, it's cool. You should go to Sam's Twitter and watch him almost dunk.
I was really shocked. I've gotten that close to dunking when I was, I think 19 I was super close to dunking. And then I blew out my knee the next two months later. And then I've never been even remotely close since then. And it's not because of the knee, it's just I never got fit again in that same way to be able to potentially do it.

**Sam Parr** (2:17)
If you did it at 19, work a little hard. I mean, work hard and try to do it.
When I was 20 and 19, I could like, I couldn't put it between my legs, but I could like go up and like do all types of weird shit.

**Shaan Puri** (2:30)
So you could dunk before?

**Sam Parr** (2:32)
Yeah, and no one believed me. Like no one who knows me now believed me. And so I'm like, fuck, I'm gonna do it. Just to show you guys.

**Shaan Puri** (2:41)
Amazing. Okay, so that's going good.

**Sam Parr** (2:44)
So yesterday, what happened? You had a little emergency? You had a bail last minute?

**Shaan Puri** (2:48)
Kind of, yeah. So that was yesterday. That was two days ago.
Yeah, I got a whole bunch of crazy stuff going on in the work world. And then Sonia yesterday was having crazy ass cramps. And then I'm like, oh shit, okay, I gotta learn how to take care of this baby.
Because right now we have a two party system. It's like, I know how to do my role, she knows how to do her role. And I'm definitely like the Steve Kerr and she's like the Michael Jordan of baby care. And so when Michael Jordan gets the flu, you're like, oh shit, now I gotta score and I don't know how to score. I haven't done this all year. And so there's some moments like that that just pop up throughout the week. And it's always during some other work thing that I'm like, okay, work's not important. I gotta learn how to be a dad. Hold on.

**Sam Parr** (3:29)
That's all right. Well, we're happy to have you back. I did a little bit of the heavy lifting without you and I didn't like it. I missed you for sure.

**Shaan Puri** (3:35)
I heard it was good though. The editor was like, this is an A episode. And I was like, wait, A's are possible without me?
