One thing I did want to bring up, which is I came across by accident was apparently you have

0:06.3

some obsession with tearing phone books. Is this something that still persists if you see a phone book?

0:13.6

I mean, I would love to keep doing it. The problem is like they're hard to get. They're very hard to get. So I haven't

0:22.7

done one. I haven't torn a phone book in years. So I'd have to like start practicing again.

0:26.5

But if I could like if I could wave a magic wand and find like the right size phone books,

0:32.2

because I'd have to probably start with tiny phone books and work my way back up to the technique.

0:37.4

The high level. If you don't want to get into the full story, that's fine.

0:40.9

But just like, this is probably the hardest I've ever laughed at a piece of your content.

0:44.7

If you want to just tell people the backstory of what I'm even talking about.

0:49.9

Yeah.

0:50.5

So it was, let me think, I was in my final year of college and I was at my then-girlfriend's

1:17.0

but a pretty thick phone book, right? So what is that? Like an inch and a half maybe, two inches.

1:21.8

And he goes, hey, do you think you could tear this? And I'm like, I doubt it. He goes, just try. So he throws it to me and I,

1:27.8

I can't do it. And then he takes it and he tears it. And I'm like, dude, how did you do that?

1:35.9

And he goes, oh, it's this technique. And I'm like, no way. Do you have any more phone books?

1:41.2

He's like, yeah, I got one more. So he gives it to me and he walks me

1:45.0

through it. And I managed to do it, but it's not that elegant. Like he just went, he just ripped it.

1:49.3

And I was like, and I kind of muscled through it. Ands. So we go, we drive to like the Bell Canada
