It reminds me of, and I don't know enough to speak off expertise here, but it reminds me of that old trick with elderly cars, I'll call them vintage cars, where if the radiator is fucking up, you can put a couple things in to just keep the radiator going until you get to the gas station. So maybe the lamb's blood thing is like that.
Quick question, though. Quick question. Yeah. Robert, if you're imagining it, and Sophie as well, this World War II doctor who stumbled upon coconut water band-aiding blood or the circulatory-
if that is how it happened uh yeah what what do you imagine like if their hand is going over a table with all sorts of other on it what else did they look at first what do you think yeah given the state of things at the time straight liquor what if we just put some jim bean in there will that save their lives And they're like, no, we're saving the liquor for the guys who aren't bleeding out.

Okay. So it's like maybe a concentration of those vectors, something like that. Yeah. The further I say this, the dumber I'll sound. Yeah.

Yeah, like our... Like our ongoing, quite successful bag of catalytic converters business. Exactly.
Right. Or if someone had previously donated to one institution. Right.
The blood money industry? Right. The blood money. Yes.
ah the people who are uh loophole enslaved in this country yes yes yes and you know there are several things
The days of stray blood are over. That's right. That's what we're aspiring toward. I hate that we have to bring this up.

We already cut the corners on liability or responsibility. I don't know, man. I just, I... Robert, you know, I'm a fan of the show. I don't want to spoil it, but it doesn't sound like this ends well. I thought maybe this would be the one happy episode.
Yeah, because these people have the incarcerated in the U.S. penal system have very little recourse. Yes.
Right, right. And further, come on, let's spend a little time just scratching behind the ears of statements like non-binding. Come on, pinky swear me. You guys, let's pinky swear. Just not here. Right. Just somewhere else.
