Speakers: Moon, Lauren, Rafe, Scott, Devon

**Moon** (1:31)
We made it, guys. We made it.
I didn't forget either. We had a comment yesterday, I guess, on the chat or something that said, don't let Moon ruin the entire week by forgetting the Ice Cube Friday song and the Friday intro, the...

**Lauren** (1:46)
The wake-up girl or bitch or whatever you want to call it.

**Moon** (1:49)
The wake-up bitch gal.

**Lauren** (1:50)
Yeah, well, you did. I mean, we had a crazy time whatever Friday ago, and we all forgot, like all of us just completely spaced.

**Rafe** (1:56)
We blew it. We blew it. I remembered it afterwards.

**Lauren** (2:00)
Yeah, great.

**Moon** (2:02)
Yeah, but I'm going to start the weekend off right, and we're starting it off right so far. We've got a lot of stuff. I mean, I've been working all week on different things, and as Rizz would say, I've got a potpourri of just random things that we're going to cover this morning.

**Rafe** (2:15)
Random.

**Moon** (2:15)
We'll jump in all over the place. I've got a lot of lists to cover, but we were just talking about weekend plans, and it's a summer weekend, another summer weekend, and Lern is making the most of it, and heading to the lake, right?

**Lauren** (2:26)
Yeah, we're going to Table Rock Lake today.

**Moon** (2:28)
Wave running and boating.

**Rafe** (2:29)
Oh, yeah.

**Moon** (2:30)
Waking up and walking down, having your coffee on the water.

**Lauren** (2:33)
No, we're not on the water this year. It was funny. We do this annual trip with my husband's family, and his parents graciously are so generous, and they get the house for us, and normally we're on the lake, and that's cool. You wake up, go down to the dock, fish, maybe get on the lily pad thing, and swim, and maybe you rent a boat for one day of the weekend or whatnot. And so we had made this plan months ago, and like a couple, I don't know, like a week ago, Tim realizes, because we're looking at the VRBO, it's not on the lake. It's one of those, of course, lake houses, it's lake adjacent, where you have to drive to the lake.
There's no way that you can easily just wake up and walk, you know, so we are all kind of like, oh God, you know, because now that means we are all stuck in the house together with no lake activities.

**Rafe** (3:26)
Even better.

**Lauren** (3:27)
No pool either, which is first world problem, but yeah, so we're all kind of like, oh, what is gonna happen?

**Rafe** (3:33)
Oh, you blew it. Yeah. Yeah, so how long does it drive? Do you know yet?

**Lauren** (3:38)
Well, to drive to Table Rock's like four hours.

**Rafe** (3:40)
No, no, no, from the house to the lake where you're staying.

**Lauren** (3:43)
I don't know. We tried to kind of eyeball it and it's...

**Rafe** (3:46)
I hope it's not one of those where it's like you're here and then there's this peninsula thing. You have to go around that and it's a 30-minute drive. Right.

**Moon** (3:52)
Is that one of those where you have to find a public... I mean, you're going to have to find a public beach or find a public... That's right. You know.
