Well, you know Jim Carrey is going to be in a superhero movie.
The Mask?
No, he's in Kick-[bleep] 2.
Oooh. Wait, shouldn't you get bleeped for that, since you bleeped me for talking about Alexander Dumas last time?
This is the first swear word you've probably ever heard me say.
Yeah! Well, I think you said, 'what the [bleep]' earlier.
Yeah, wow!
But you were quoting something I had said, so that doesn't entirely count.
Dang, OK, gotta write down the time code.
15:04
Brandon, did you hear the episode where I had to bleep Ben out?
Which one?
Yeah, exactly.
Well, I've been—usually what has happened—
The last two episodes.
The last two?!
Yeah.
What did you have to bleep me for in the second one?
Because I had—I played the clip—
I think I listened to that one today.
Yeah, I played where you listened to André's—
I said, 'what the [bleep]'!
Yeah, exactly.
That's not a swear word!
I thought it would be funny—it makes it funnier—
It sounds a lot worse.
Yeah.
Sometimes ambiguity is worse than actually just leaving it in there.
It's actually pretty—it's a pretty funny clip.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
André's going to be like—I'm never going to make friends with André now!
The funny thing is, I just bleeped you out again, and so no one—still people won't know what you're saying.
Oh. Uh, 'H-E-double-hockey-sticks'.
Epic Life Church is now defunct, due to finances. Matt thinks it would be funny to restart The Life Report.
22:33
Yeah, so everybody, let's just bow our heads for a second.
A moment of silence for The Life Report.
I just want to have a moment of silence and pray for The Life Report.
We're not going to pray for The Life Report.
If you're in your car right now, just close your eyes and bow your head.
