00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.480
At one point, obviously because I'm a lesbian at some point in some dating situation, I ended up getting in a kayak.
00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:06.240
And I was like, ugh, I'll do this for you.
00:00:06.559 --> 00:00:08.320
I stood up and demonstrated pull-ups.
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:10.880
Oh my boy, this podcast is improving by the second.
00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:18.160
I think I had a horsehair toothbrush that I as I recall was almost like brushing my teeth wit…
