Ice cream sandwich

It is 95 degrees, the heat index is 110, and we are doing either the dumbest or the smartest thing we've ever done.

We're going to be talking about ice cream sandwiches today, and we have an entire table full of them, so you're going to hear me talking really fast before we have a table full of ice cream soup.

So, it's ice cream sandwiches.

With me today is a woman who has the scoop on everything in town.

George, I love it.

We decided this is one of your many little roundups that you do.

And you said, hey, it's the middle of summer.

my

This is like when we had the food draft and Skin took Mexican food.

I thought that was my greatest moment as a human.

That was your greatest moment just now, I think, with the ice cream sandwich.

What do you want to say?

[cheering] [clapping] So DJ, I'm curious how you became such a fan of sabbaticals.

As I understand it, this started with a time when you yourself need a sabbatical, a moment that you call your ice cream sandwich moment.

[laughs] What was that?

So I entered sabbatical land, as I call it, as most people do, which is unintentionally.

You know, I'd run my company for seven years, and I was feeling lower and lower energy, tough to get out of bed, and I was growing even worse facial hair than I have now.

And my co-founders were like, "Are you okay?" And I think at some point, you know, when it was your dream job and you can't get out of bed to do your, your job, there's a problem.

It brings up all certain types of emotions around, like, if this won't make me happy, what will? The ice cream sandwich moment was on a particularly sad kind of weekend.

It was Friday, had no plans.
