>> Stephen: YOU'RE REINSTATING IT?
IS IT TOO LONG, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
I AGREE, BE BUT HOW LONG DO YOU THINK IT SHOULD BE.
>> I THINK WE SHOULD APPROACH IT LIKE OTHER COUNTRIES WHERE WE
HAVE A LIMITED AMOUNT OF TIME LAWS -- BECAUSE LAST YEAR WAS A
HATE FLOG.
TRUMP IS ALREADY CAMPAIGNING.
LAST YEAR WAS TWO YEARS AND NOW IT'S FOUR YEARS.
>> Stephen: THERESA MAY CALLED A SNAP ELECTION FOR THE END OF
MAY.
WE'LL WAKE UP TOMORROW MORNING, THERE'S A NEW ELECTION.

YOU ABOUT THIS ALBUM BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT A NEW ALBUM AND
YOU'RE GOING TO DO A SONG IN A LITTLE BIT CALLED "BE MYSELF"
RIGHT THERE.

THE PHONE, BLOW UP EVERYTHING.
HOW DID YOU KNOW TO PUT THAT IN YOUR SONG?

ESPIONAGE SONG IN THE TONE OF, LIKE, GIVE ME SHELTER, AND I
JUST STARTED THINKING -- I WAS SITTING HERE WITH MY BUDDY
GOING, WOW, WHAT'S THE CRAZIEST THING YOU CAN IMAGINE?
RUSSIA HACKING, THAT WOULD BE CRAZY AND, LIKE, THE PRESIDENT
BEING INVOLVED WITH RUSSIA, THAT WOULD BE SO F'D UP!
(WHISPERING).
