    I didn't know Lou Reed sang a song like that.

  10. Josh Clark· Host0:41

    Do I sound like Lou Reed? [laughs] I'll take that.

  11. Chuck Bryant· Host0:44

    Kinda. You're kinda speak singing, which is Lou Reed's deal.

  12. Josh Clark· Host0:47

    Yeah, I do speak sing. I, I can't put my all into it like- Hey, man ... like other people.

  13. Chuck Bryant· Host0:51

    A lot of people have made great careers out of speak singing. No shame.

  14. Josh Clark· Host0:54

    That's right. All right. I might take you up on that and become a speak singer.

  15. Chuck Bryant· Host0:58

    That's right. W- I mean, that's the gateway to being a, a white male rapper, so just be careful.

  16. Josh Clark· Host1:05

    [laughs] Okay. I will be careful. If you see me with, like, three lines cut into my side, the side of my head- Right. [laughs] ... maybe take me, um, out for some- Yeah ... drinks and give me some... the talking to.

  17. Chuck Bryant· Host1:17

    I've done that accidentally.

  18. Josh Clark· Host1:18

    Oh, I have too. Well, Yumi did it accidentally to me, but not... I, I'm talking intentional.

  19. Chuck Bryant· Host1:24

    Oh, okay. [laughs] Yeah.

  20. Josh Clark· Host1:25

    All right, so we're talking spring break. That's why you sang... Can you sing it again, please?
