All right, let's do this. How are you? What the fuckers? What the fucknicks? What the fuckadelics? What the fucktuckians? What the fuckocrats?
What the fucklicans? What's happening? How are you? Is everybody okay? Is there a dire tone to my voice right now? Can you hear it? Are you okay? Talk to me. Can you hear me? Can you see these? Look, how many am I holding up?
Can you smell this? Can you feel me? Can you feel this? Can you feel that? Are you okay? Snap out of it. Snap out of it.
Oh, I should read you that email.
Yeah, let me get hold on. Let me get you this email. Subject line, snap out of it.
Marc, craziest damn thing ever. I'm not someone who talks to myself out loud ever, but I was just walking along, walking my dog, feeling miserable about everything. And I heard you say at the beginning of the Dan Levy episode, how are you doing? You doing all right? And I said out loud, and I remind you, I am not someone who speaks out loud to himself. Not good, Marc, not good at all. And you said, and I have no idea whether you were quoting the movie Moonstruck or not, but you said it loudly and in a somewhat share-like voice, snap out of it. And I did, I laughed heartily. Anyone watching me would think I'm a truly crazy person. Thank you and have an amazing day. I will now continue my walk and continue with the episode, but I simply had to share this in the first few moments after it happened. Yours in Serendipity, Nick. You're welcome, Nick. I hope you're still snapped out of it. Huh? It's easy to fall back into it. It's hard to stay snapped out of it. Am I right? God damn. Oh, there's another email. I think this is important. By the way, my guest today is a film director, usually a documentarian, but this is a feature film. Liz Garbus is here. Her film Lost Girls, that's it. It's streaming on Netflix. She's also directed a lot of documentaries, but she's the person I talked to today. Also Andy Kindler. I'm not saying the shorty is back, but the shorty might pop up every once in a while now that we're doing interviews in a different way. Also, I wanna give you a heads up about the cat mugs, the Brian Jones mugs. Right now, I can't give the cat mugs to any guests because not many guests are joining me here in the garage. But you can get your own ceramic cat mug right now and act like you've been here to the garage. These are handmade by Brian Jones, my guy, my Potter guy, my Potter pal. And he's donating a percentage of the sales to the Connecticut Food Bank. Go to brianrjones.com/shopstarting at noon Eastern today. Get a mug.
Here's another email. Please do the USPS a solid. And this is from a postal guy. Marc, I deliver mail and I've always been happy to greet my customers and hand them their mail when they come out to see me. However, due to the current situation, I'm wondering if you can help provide a public service announcement, which is please let your mail carrier put the mail in the damn box. We realize that you miss physical and personal interaction, but we deliver to hundreds of houses, businesses and apartments each day. Please help us keep all of our customers safe by not coming out of your house and taking the mail from our hands. I deliver in Texas where not everybody is taking this pandemic seriously. If you can help get the word out, maybe I won't have to become a human billboard and we're assigned telling people to keep six feet away from me. Thanks a lot. And I'm glad I got to see you on your tour stop in Dallas last year before the world comes to an end. Stay safe, Joran. All right, you heard the guy. All right, say hi to your mail carriers from a distance. Let them put the mail in the box.
