And I I went on a walk for about an hour and ten minutes last night. I just said, I'll just put it in the earbuds and walk. Great. And it was great. Happy to hear it's a good listen too.

And they started on radio. Which is c I think all of us could be uh ventriloquists on radio. I could be ventriloquist tomorrow on the radio, yeah. Right, but So they did Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy started as as uh he he as uh Edgar Bergen is a ventriloquist on the radio.
So I I guess you'll call it theater of the mind. I I don't I don't know, but it could work if it could work for Edgar and it could work for Steve Martin. Do you
think there's any radio ventriloquist acts that got hired to do a
live act later? They're like, Oh, we gotta we gotta get our stuff together. Yeah. That's so funny. Well, you didn't actually even have to bring the dummy. Yeah. If you're doing it on the radio. He's right over here. The other guy didn't even need to be you. Jeremiah, you could be the my dummy. Exactly. How are you doing, Charlie McCarthy? Well wait, you gotta talk. I don't have I'm saying I don't have to do both ends. I I was miming being the puppet for a second. Oh. Yeah. Hey. Oh hey.
Hey, it's me.
Hold on, I'm gonna drink a glass of water while you sing the Star Spangled Banner. Go ahead. I'm excellent.
It was always a lot of the drogozaks they always have that that kind of thing where you can still kind of hear that they're clenching though. That they're trying to to to keep their and they're
hey, how are you drawing?
Yeah, they do they do the clinch. Yeah. They do the the face you do when they put the suave up your urethra.
Yeah,
exactly.
It's a No, I'm definitely not talking to a puppet right
now. There are a couple of guys who just basically talk. Like they go, I'm a ventriloquist, but y my mouth is just flap.
