I'm doing well.
Don't be fooled.
Brett is, he's not frozen, Ben.
I think that's your concern is Brett's frozen.
No, he's actually just blinking.
No, it was really, really good.
How scared are you, Ben?
Ben was pretty scared, but hey, Ben and I could have done the show.
We've done it before, just Ben and I without you, B, so don't... I don't cue Ben into my bits.
just say this too like i'm really excited to get into tonight's show i think we have as ben was saying at the upfront here a lot to get into a lot of interesting footage to show our live audience and for our audio listeners to really you know dig in and listen to but as it relates specifically to the reflecting pool and i know we'll get into this deeper trump has like a history uh of paying you know his pool people to do some obscure tasks you know whether it's this reflecting pool painting it blue or you
You know, wasn't there something going down in Mar-a-Lago with a pool person and trying to hide some documents?
Yeah, I think something.
This kind of aligns really well with a lot of Trumpisms that we've seen over the course of the years, but neither here nor there.
Brett, anything to you before we kick it to Ben to get started?
I can't put my finger on it, but- I feel like that was not in any way connected to the actual atmosphere around DC and the environment of DC actually being a swamp though.
As Brett looks for that clip, I just wanted to say this just to start.
First off, Ben, you are so right.
The reflecting pool is the perfect microcosm of Trump's entire presidency, his entire existence.
It's short-term thinking, short-term perceived glitz and glam.
Think the Ponzi scheme stock market.
