Alright, we're back. Circling back podcast coming to you live from Austin, Texas. My name's Will DeFries to my left. Dave Ruff.

I'm the type of guy who like I'll complain when the the thunderstorm misses my part of Austin, but then when it wakes me up at 315 in the morning, with some mediocre thunder claps, you know, nothing crazy.

It wasn't clapping cheeks up there. I'll get upset because it interferes with my sleep. So I'm kind of it's a duality of man situation will. So I want you guys know that's where I'm at.

Man, so why were you and Brett talking droughts in bullpen earlier, bringing down the whole vibe. Because Brett asked me, I know, I wise he's like it rained last night. Why is he worried about droughts right now.

We need a lot of rain to get parts of the state out of the severe drought, but trying to better in Western like, like, how does the drought really affect Brad?

You want to have a hot boy summer. He wants to hit the lake, man. He's not worried about his lawn. I know that I probably won't even look at Lake Travis this summer.

That being said, I don't like knowing that it's like half full. Yeah, it's depressed. It bothers me. It's depressing. So I get excited when the lake levels rise.

Man, summer 2011, you guys weren't here, but whoo, it was a tough one. You could like almost walk across the bottom of Lake Travis.

Was that also the wildfire summer? Or is that a different summer? I don't know, David.

I don't see that one even affect me. Because I don't go to Lake Travis like ever. What did it affect you that there were 100 straight days of 100 plus degree heat.

Yeah, not good. Yeah. Yeah. But I mean, it kind of just feels like that anyway in the summertime here. It's just sucks no matter how it goes.

I'm a time Dylan Shervery ladies and gentlemen, you guys happy to be here. I did this space mug thing yesterday on Patreon. So I'm not going to do it again, but I am using my space mug. So thanks again.

You literally just did it again. No, I didn't do like the whole spiel. But I'm happy to be here. If like, it's going to be a good day of content. A surprisingly good day of content. Actually, why surprisingly, I don't know.

Sometimes we have sometimes we have days that are not excellent, but this is not going to be one of them. Okay, good. Well, so what's your gut feeling? You just think it's going to be good just because yeah, just intuition.

Okay, I'm going to do my best. That's all you can ask for. When do the gas station today? First time I'd been to the gas station near my place and probably three months. What's your go to gas station over there?

I go to the 7-11 over there. I don't go inside because I'll be honest. Really shitty inside. It's also got traditionally one of the most unfriendly staffs I've ever met in my entire life. Today I walked in.

And not only had they redone parts of checkout, they also seem to have hired an all new staff who was absolutely blasting reggae tone music. And that's something I'm in on. And so I'd like to congratulate the 7-11 near my crib.

I did. Park said to do an emergency tinky in there one time in the bathroom. Never go in there. It is and cleaned it in months. I don't think it's terrible. Well, I'm saying I think they're on the up and up. They realize they realize there were some bad reviews.

So they had to get some a new team in there. Good. Badly needed. Did you did you look at the clipboard on the inside of the door?

No, the manager is supposed to sign off when it's like just checking in, making sure there's not due to feces on the floor.

This is a move that I do with parks when we go into a public restroom, especially one that's really dirty. I say don't touch anything that you don't have to.

Yeah, that's that's some classic dad vernacular.
