Speaker 1 (00:00):
I I'm wearing a shirt that fits for the first time
in quite some time. I caved and gave in, just
to help, went ahead and got a bigger size. Oh boy,
because the size I had been wearing for two years
had stopped fitting, and I was pretending that I was
going to get back into that shirt. There's no point

(00:20):
in buying new shirts. This shirt fit before. Fine, it'll
fit again. I just need to get a little discipline.
But the discipline was not coming, and I was tired
of being squeezed to death, and so I just bought
a bigger shirt. And it is so comfortable. So I
just gave up or acknowledged reality. It depends on how

(00:43):
you want to look at it. A temporary measure, an
emergency measure, if you will. Is it a temporary measure?
Is it? Or is it? Or is it on the
road to even bigger shirts. That's what we'll have to wait.
That's what we'll have to wait and see. So how
bad was the previous size? I mean, could you were
the buttons like that? Between the buttons gap? Bang's so bad?

(01:05):
You can see flesh? Yes? Oh boy, yes, definitely not good.
I or an undershirt son, no flesh will be seen.
But yes, yes, that was happening. And and I know
for a fact that that was not the case when
I when I when I bought the shirt. So something
changed and that something is well the number on the scale.
And uh, I just I just I just so it's

(01:25):
a big day. It's a big day. I just admitted.
You know what, you're a different size than you were
for the past two years. You just are. There's more
of you to love. Okay, Well, and again, the days
of discipline are coming any minute now or not. Okay,
I hope they are. But they're trying to be positive.

(01:45):
I'm trying to provide a little leadership here. I don't
feel like Jim Harbaugh going to the Los Angeles Chargers.
What a terrible idea. We need to change the culture here.
You're not buying in to my system, right. But I
thought the discipline was coming all of those days of
wearing my shirt with the things splat open in the middle, thinking,

(02:08):
you know, this is embarrassing, but that's part of what's
going to motivate you tonight, eat you know crap today.
But it wasn't working in the reason the buttons were
going to pop off and put somebody's eye out. Oh boy,
nobody wants that. So anyway, it's just somewhat relaxing to
have just given up. We still accept you. Thank you,
thank you. Wow. There you go. Michael. That's nice. That's

(02:30):
a kind of a Michael's our director of DEI, and
he's making sure Jack feels inclusioned. Lizzo is my hero
and fat accepted is my cause. So there you are,
enjoy your infarction. It's fairly common, isn't it. I've never
had this, but it's fairly common. It isn't to have
a group of clothes that you want to be in

(02:52):
or were once in here, and then another group of
clothes that you were currently wearing. Oh I got half
a closet fall Yeah. Yeah, of like mostly two different
weights are all the shades in between. That's difficult to say.
I will just I describe it as this realistic and unrealistic.

(03:17):
Do you have some clothes that like, you'll never wear
but you still hang on to And then there's like
the lawless border region, the gray area. It might be
it might conceivably be on me someday, but it's unlikely.
Do I have clothes what that I've you said, unrealistic.
So I just wondered, like, if you have some clothes,
you think, yeah, that could happen, but it's not. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(03:39):
In particular, T shirts. I got a lot of T shirts,
a lot of great T shirts, cool T shirts, concert,
fun places, I've been, that sort of thing, and a
lot of them. If I were to put them on now, well,
they look like an undergarment stretched across to me. I
was just thinking, Luckily, so far, I still wear the
same size socks. When I need to up in sock size,

(04:01):
it might be when I have to really take a
look at myself, my feet, if really gained weight. Ah boy,
as I heard a woman say not too long ago,
and I thought it was hilarious. Said I got this
morning and put on my pants and thought, well, looks
like we outgrew these. We're getting bigger, aren't we. How

(04:24):
what happens? Armstrong and
