And it is a free Bracket episode. It was the Bracket episode that was voted on by the members of the Patreon. They thought y'all, the greater Besties community, and I don't mean... I mean size-wise, not necessarily literally greater- Right. ... wanted to hear- They were- Keep digging the hole. Yeah, yeah.

Justin McElroy· Host0:48
I, I guess- ...
Griffin McElroy· Host0:48

Russ Frushtick· Host1:20
