Like a Surgeon

Sure.

Open with Like a Surgeon.

Yep.

Right into I Lost on Jeopardy.

They had never heard Weird Al yet.

Yankovic and like and the parents loved Weird Al so like they were totally cool and I asked them before I started playing it in the car when I would pick the kids up from summer camp but the song Like a Surgeon came on and the kids understood that it was a parody like I had explained like he takes real songs and he changes the words but they asked me what's the original of Like a Surgeon and I had to be like bruh was like when we get home and when you're like hanging out with your parents ask them who Madonna is you know go ask your parents who's Madonna and they can handle it from there okay great sorry just like I'm not a person to explain Madonna to you I can acknowledge I am that is not my role today I'm just gonna step around this minefield because I like this job and I don't want to lose this job like

That is so funny because this is getting deeper than we need to, but real quick, you have with every gate there's a line and it kind of gives a nuance to the gate and you have I think you're a two line there and the nuance of that gate is knowing when to retreat as well so maybe like maybe not delivering that so you have that intuition like that's like right like you I mean

I try to have that intuition because lately you know in the past couple years I'm like I can't lose this job you know That's real.
