YOU KNOW, I FEEL LIKE I GOT TO
GET USED TO WEARING CLOTHES
AGAIN.
I DON'T ABOUT A DRESS ANYMORE A
LOT OF STYLE AND THIS JUST
SHAKING PEOPLE'S HANDS AFTER A
SHOW HAS BECOME TOUGH.
IT'S LIKE WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO
DO ALL OVER AGAIN.
IT'S LIKE DO WE FIST BUMP, WE
SHAKE.
I JUST GRAB PEOPLE AND JUST
BRING THEM IN AND LIKE EMBRACE
THEM.
I HAVEN'T TOUCHED NOBODY IN
FIVE YEARS.
I KNOW SO MUCH HAS CHANGED
SINCE PRE PANDEMIC AND TO NOW
SO LOTS OF CHANGES.
I'VE DEFINITELY BECOME A FAN
OF THAT SWEAT PANTS ATTIRE LIKE
YOU'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT.
SO DID YOU DISCOVER ANYTHING
ABOUT YOURSELF DURING THE
PANDEMIC, BYRON OH I KNEW.
I LEARNED I DIDN'T I WAS
PROBABLY I GUESS FULLY BRUSHING
MY TEETH BECAUSE ONCE I START
WEARING A MASK AND I STARTED A
SMELL SOMETHING I REALIZED IT

AND THEN SHE GOT YOU KNOW, LIKE
YOU KNOW, AND SHE NO SHE NO
LONGER US YOU LIKE SHE'S A LIAR
BUT WE JUST DON'T ASK HER
CALLED NOTHING NO MORE BECAUSE
YOU KNOW WE LIKE IT.
YOU'RE THE ONE THAT TOLD US
WHAT ELSE WOULD WRONG.
YOU WERE GOING TO WASH OUR
HANDS WHEN YOU WERE WRONG ABOUT
THAT.
SO YEAH, I KNOW A FEW PEOPLE
GOT IT BUT THEY MADE IT THROUGH
YOU KNOW THEY WERE ATHLETES SO
MAYBE THEY THEIR IMMUNE SYSTEM
