Kisses from Kenya Episode 15: War & Politics

EPISODE 15: War & Politics

Sometimes you laugh because the alternative is crying. This week Brendan and Vuyanzi sit with the weight of global conflict, the strange experience of being American abroad when the world wants to talk about U.S. politics, and a PSA that needs to be said: please do not move to Kenya just because you heard it's cheap.

In this episode:

• Opening - Vuyanzi reflects on possibly winding down her weekly solo live stream and what the space has meant
• Deep Dive - war, global events, and how differently they land depending on where you are and who you are; why Brendan keeps getting pulled into conversations about U.S. politics abroad while Vuyanzi doesn't experience that same dynamic
• PSA - moving to Kenya for the wrong reasons: a frank conversation for anyone considering it
• Queer & Black Joy - Vuyanzi finds joy in the shallow end of a comment section that could have hit much harder; Brendan brings stories from a wedding, a photo, and a mysterious man from the past

Transcript

Vuyanzi 0:06

Hey, Kisses from Kenya is produced by Democrats Abroad Kenya, but everything you hear in this podcast reflects our personal perspectives. As Americans living in Kenya.

Brendan 0:20

Yes. And I think we say it should be taken as the official stance of Democrats abroad Kenya, Democrats Abroad Global, or the Democratic Party. And this is an entertainment that is and not an official politics platform.

Vuyanzi 0:33

Thank you. I'm gonna stop doing my Twitch because I feel like I'm more open here and being with you. I think I'm thankful for who you are and how you are. And um it it frees me. I feel more freer here in how we talk than I do doing it by myself on Twitch.

Brendan 0:51

Where I used to feel like I feel very confused by people that do solo podcasts, because it feels like it like it's just me like yapping at myself.

Vuyanzi 1:02

Yeah, no, my for me it's like almost like a diary.

Brendan 1:04

Y'all do not your diary, XOXO, Gossip Girl.

Vuyanzi 1:09

Seriously, when I tell you it's like a stream of consciousness, yeah.

Brendan 1:12

So I might as well use that for writing, maybe instead of I guess I understand it when people do interview, like if if somebody does like a podcast where it's like a hundred percent interview format, like I think Chelsea Handler, like on hers, it's like yeah, she always has a guest. Yes, yes, you know, Amy Polar always has a guest, yes. Like, I guess that's fine, but no, just when it's people who are just there, like, oh blah blah blah, and then I think about blah blah blah. That's me.

Vuyanzi 1:37

No, I'm like, and it's almost like I'm it's for me, it's by me for me, because I'm like, oh my gosh, I'll have insights and revelations while I'm talking, while I'm talking shit out. I'm like, oh god.

Brendan 1:52

And then people are just there watching. Let's watch this girl have a mental breakout of the internet. And then I'm so they're waiting for you to print these spears yourself.

Vuyanzi 2:05

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but uh in my underwear, and nope well, I'm halfway there. Um, okay. Oh, oh. Hello. Wait, let me make sure it's recording. Oh, okay, okay. Are we there?

Brendan 2:23

Guys, this is all b-roll. Okay, I know it's uh fun.

Vuyanzi 2:26

Okay.

Brendan 2:27

So that's the intro.

Vuyanzi 2:29

That may that may be the intro. I think it's fine.

Brendan 2:31

I'm so tired of editing. Yeah, maybe we just gonna get what you get.

Vuyanzi 2:35

I think that's fine.

Brendan 2:36

I promise you, when I when I watch that like drag queen one, like I'm already like now that I know how much it takes to just like edit it to like get shit to line up. And then they got all this shit moving around.

Vuyanzi 2:47

Leg up this uh spaceships green screen. Yeah, I mm-mm.

Brendan 2:53

No, that's we need a team first. Y'all subscribe to our Patreon that doesn't exist yet. Send money. Send the page. Also works if you're in the US.

Vuyanzi 3:06

Right, but you can also sell us to an infinite cash app, yeah, yeah.

Brendan 3:10

I accept all forms of payment, including nature's credit card.

Vuyanzi 3:22

Depositing time. Uh, welcome to Kisses from Kenya. I am Luyanzi.

Brendan 3:28

And I'm Brendan.

Vuyanzi 3:30

And uh here we go.

Brendan 3:31

This week we're talking about the current crazy fucking. Well, I mean, by the time this goes up, who knows what the fuck? Hopefully, we won't be vaporized.

Vuyanzi 3:39

You know what? I actually was thinking about that before I came over. I'm like, because I'd forgotten it while I was here, but I said if we start talking about the war, the way things are going. What?

Brendan 3:50

Well, Nancy Guthrie just went up this week, girl. So they still invite her today. They still invite her. I'm so sorry, Savannah. If this ever crosses your nerves, please let it not ever. We pray for your mother. We do.

Vuyanzi 4:10

It's it's just your delicious. We have to keep from crying. I know.

Brendan 4:15

Um maybe that's why we got 90 views.

Vuyanzi 4:18

What's happening? I think I lost weight or something because I've worn this out and I see these arms right now. I have danced with this shirt on, by the way, and nothing's ever fallen out. So something's looser. I lost weight. Yes, I can be a skinny white girl after all.

Brendan 4:35

There's a joke there about the cavern, but I'm gonna leave it. Uh so let's talk about the state of the world. Because, you know. Like, are we at war? Are we not at war? Like, nobody seems to know. Um it's just crazy. I mean, like, and I I think like all of that, I mean, we all know that all of that is insane. But I think what is hard, you know, is that being in so many spaces with a lot of non-Americans, it's like it's like the first thing everyone wants to talk about to me. Yeah, it's like, so you're president, you know. Oh, so you're war. Like, you know, our gas prices are gonna go up because you're president.

Vuyanzi 5:22

I I I wonder though, because they don't want to talk to me as much. And I wonder, is it because you're white? Like you're Mizungu, so they're like, okay. Is that your uncle? Is that your dad?

Brendan 5:36

Ew, can you imagine?

Vuyanzi 5:37

Oh no, uh, we wouldn't even be here right now, okay?

Brendan 5:40

Like, but um The thing I was about to say would probably get me on an FBI list. So don't keep it in front.

Vuyanzi 5:47

Keep it in, lock it up.

Brendan 5:50

My friend Lana, that's what she used to tell the kids in in her classroom. She'd be like, lock it up.

Vuyanzi 5:54

They would all have to clap trap on the I don't want to mess up my little list, so I'll just do this. I'll cuff it. Cough it.

Brendan 6:03

But like, do people bring it up to you?

Vuyanzi 6:05

Number one, rarely, very rarely. And I'm glad that they don't. What in fact, when they talk about the gas price, or here this, I guess the petrol prices, um, it's it's something over there. So they don't even equate it. Uh uh because I'm thinking about the conversation.

Brendan 6:22

Well, they're I mean, they're also protected here, right? Because since like gas prices are only adjusted once a month, yeah, like it's what day is today, like the ninth or the tenth? Yeah, today's like it's the 10th. That's not gonna that's gonna hit next week because it's adjusted usually on the 14th, 15th, or 16th of the month. So if it jumps up by like 40 shillings, then people are gonna be like, now wait a minute.

Vuyanzi 6:44

Yeah, I so I feel when it comes to the idea of this war or not.

Brendan 6:52

Which by the way, I know y'all think that everything is cheaper over here, especially all the people that are on the internet talking about move to Kenya. First of all, please don't. Um, look, did I say that?

Vuyanzi 7:02

No, don't. I'm sorry, I really and I want to say something.

Brendan 7:05

I need you to understand that I filled my gas ink the other day, and mind you, like I just said, we are protected from the bump because our gas prices have not been adjusted for the last four weeks. And the equivalent, if I do the conversion from liters to gallons and from shillings to dollars, it is five dollars and nineteen cents a gallon. So, all of you Americans that are complaining about your $4 gas, big fuck you. Yeah, he said what he said.

Vuyanzi 7:36

We're not editing that out. We'll die on this hill mouth.

Brendan 7:40

Come beat me.

Vuyanzi 7:44

Nope, seriously, and and yeah, I mean, that could be a whole nother thing about how king is cheaper. It's not, it's very expensive here. Some things even double here. But uh just in terms of that, when it comes to the the thought and the conversation, and this is why I'm glad people don't talk to me, is because I feel very helpless. Like I feel Congress is like, well, it wasn't authorized, but meanwhile, shit is still happening.

Brendan 8:08

They just like y'all are real, like, we're gonna write a letter. Strongly working.

Vuyanzi 8:14

Like, and I'm so I don't even watch any more of those Congress people. They used to come a lot on my feed, like making a statement. It's like, look off, look at this person, tell off this person. I don't even care. Are they going to do anything? Are they gonna they're gonna stop it? Are they gonna arrest him for war crimes? Are they going to do any of that? If they're not, I don't give an F. I don't care because I feel very helpless. People are still dying. And and I know we have to be careful about talking about the other country that's involved in that, but I it is come to me, not come to me. They just want to expand the territory and godshed.

Brendan 8:55

No, I I I mean that's the excuse that they're using, isn't it?

Vuyanzi 8:58

They want to expand their territory. Lebanon, you know what they're doing in Lebanon. And so what, how many hundreds of thousands of people are getting displaced?

Brendan 9:06

I mean, don't get me started. And and and they looking at us as like, you know, they're like colonial cousin.

Vuyanzi 9:15

They think it's a word. But one thing I have liked is a lot of those European nations not giving in to whatever the US is doing. Like someone seeing that this man is demanding.

Brendan 9:31

Ireland, my people. We used to be like doing car bombs on the British. So like we've been down for a long time.

Vuyanzi 9:42

Can we sideways for a second? Are you still down? So I learned from my those same Irish people that used to live in the town, but I heard it was a derogatory drink. You have bailed. Yes, and I went carbon. I did that. I'd love to have one here one day, but what is that again?

Brendan 10:01

Bailey's so it's Guinness.

Vuyanzi 10:02

Guinness.

Brendan 10:04

And then it's a shot of Bailey's that you drop into it.

Vuyanzi 10:06

And then you have to drink it as fast as possible. I like that.

Brendan 10:08

Yeah, it's the same thing as like a Jaeger bomb, but it's Guinness and I love it. Yeah.

Vuyanzi 10:14

You drop the whole glass in.

Brendan 10:16

Well, yeah, but it but so it's like not a full glass of of Guinness. It's like a half.

Vuyanzi 10:22

Half, okay.

Brendan 10:22

And then you drop the full shot in and it like brings the beer up so it mixes together. Okay.

Vuyanzi 10:28

I did that one time and it was really good. Yeah, they're good. Yeah, okay, sorry. Back to back to the real bombs. So I appreciate not everyone kowtowing, whatever that word is, or bending over and say when to the United States. Like the Spanish too.

Brendan 10:44

Like the Spanish have really been down for the cause.

Vuyanzi 10:47

Yeah. But I don't understand like what is going on. Is anyone gonna stop this? Is anyone gonna arrest the president?

Brendan 10:56

I'm just you know, I'm like, I'm like to to quote the Kenyans, it's like, are you not embarrassed? Are you not embarrassed? Oh, like embarrassed. Wait, can I and then on top of that, you saw Belania's little little little press conference that she gave all of a sudden yesterday?

Vuyanzi 11:11

No, what did she say?

Brendan 11:13

Girl, they're so embarrassed by how they are so embarrassed by how bad the war is going now. They now they're going back to Epstein. So she came out and gave a whole press conference, basically being like, basically being like, Y'all stop talking about how I was friends with Jeffrey Epstein. I didn't know Jeffrey Epstein, blah blah blah blah blah. And now she wants to come out and be like, the the um the victims need to have a hearing. Like they need to tell they need to be able to testify and tell their story to Congress. You know what? I don't I thank God. Do you know how bad it has to be going for them to circle back to like we got here to avoid Epstein and now you're bringing it back? They said it out.

Vuyanzi 11:56

Uh-oh.

Brendan 11:57

They said, put on your best wig, Melania. We gotta go. Put on your best face and your best wig. And like, so I only I like only watch like a few clips. I mean, like that's crazy. I find her almost as hard to listen to as her husband. Almost just as hard. Speaking of hard to listen to, guess who else has a podcast now? Who? RFK.

Vuyanzi 12:19

What the heck?

Brendan 12:20

Can you imagine listening to that man's voice for an hour?

Vuyanzi 12:23

What is he saying? No, actually, we're gonna have to do it as homework. We're gonna have to do this as homework. The puppies are children full of hormones, and that's why we should bring back it. Wait a minute. I was trying to find Bring back Led Pete! Oh god. Okay, wait, one second. I just want to say, I just want to say, speaking of embarrassed, the the two it wasn't the tweets. What is it on Truth Social? I was trying to find his tweets on Truth Social. Please be true! What? Happy Easter! What? We're gonna bomb a whole civilization. What the fuck is that? Who taught like it's so it's like we're not this is why the part of me as of as much as we laugh, I laugh to keep from crying because it feels so hopeless and helpless. How could this be? How could this have happened? Where did is America going straight to hell? I mean, come on. This is where I feel like God is trying to tell you something. Seriously, and um okay, you know I like to divert. I'm pretty sure I have ADD at some point, but I wasn't tested. So we'll come back to this a second.

Brendan 13:45

But and there was no ADD when you were in school. You predated it. I said with laugh. I was the ADD pioneer generation. Was was the we had the we had the real one. No, I I was diagnosed when I was like But what about us?

Vuyanzi 14:09

What about Gen X? We had something.

Brendan 14:11

I was eight.

Vuyanzi 14:15

What's happening over here?

Brendan 14:17

I think I They say stuck it up. Basically, that's why you're always so angry.

Vuyanzi 14:24

So, anyway, nothing's gonna be done. It's frustrating. I don't even like for it to appear on my feed. Now I'm actually scrolling past. Um, and especially the things that the things I'm seeing. However, a way that I have found to uh digest some news. I don't know if you watch this guy. He is uh very flamboyant gay man. He always is wearing a bonnet. I think he's probably a bonnet. Yeah, he's always wearing a bonnet, like a black lady bonnet. Yes. He has his he has great hair. And um and he's always like, girl, he hears things before sometimes Don Lemon hears them.

Brendan 15:02

Really?

Vuyanzi 15:03

Yes. Uh, I'm gonna, I I will find him and then because he's always when it's Well, we we do not have time to watch you scroll in real time. Uh uh, just stop. I swear he's gonna come up. Stop, don't do that to me. I'm telling you, my epstein's been done. I'm like, how do you make it about you?

Brendan 15:23

Only Melania could get up there and make it about her. Something's wrong with these people. Okay, of course we're gonna look it up the next episode. Because you know you can't multi-screen either. You're gonna see something else, and then you're gonna be talking about that. You remember that time that I put something there was something on the TV and you were trying to write the script?

Vuyanzi 15:43

It was murder she wrote. Excuse me, it was murder she wrote. It was a good show. I was intrigued by it, so I knew you had to turn it on.

Brendan 15:50

There's always a good time for murder she wrote.

Vuyanzi 15:52

But this, but this guy, anyway, that's the only digestible way I can do the news. And he's like a girl. And he does that thing with his tongue, and then he's delivering like I don't know where his source is, but this guy is good. I don't even know what his name is, but he's good. And then sometimes he's dancing and telling us with his bonnet on, and then he was, and then okay, there's something else I want to talk about, but it's uh less serious, but it's about the okay. Great. You guys ready? This is terrible to say this. But you have you seen are we gonna get canceled?

Brendan 16:27

Is it worse than dancing after you stop saying her name?

Vuyanzi 16:34

Stop saying her name. That's how we got my debut. It's the angel of death. I don't know what his name is. Tell me you have not seen this fine ass man who's like a superhero, gray beard. And when I tell you in the comments, people are like, I'll take my chances. He is gore just and like to see him, and then the way he gives respect to others, he's like uh he's like head of the something army on the Iranian side. This dude, I'm so surprised right now that you do not know who he is. But you won't allow me to scroll through my phone so I can show him to you.

Brendan 17:14

You gotta you gotta have it mentally prepared.

Vuyanzi 17:17

Yeah, but I he is fine.

Brendan 17:22

I did see this video of this like shirtless clown mask man who apparently is like a fixture in Times Square and is like always wearing like pants that are like down to like just like above his little like it's about to pop out, and he ain't got no shirt on. I don't know if people be taking pictures with him.

Vuyanzi 17:40

What is he in the affiliated with the war? No, it's just I was at least talking about the angel.

Brendan 17:47

No, the thing is you start talking about this five-man and brought and I'm like people being in the comments, and my mind was just scrolling through, like, okay, what files do I have that I could like open, like pull off the shelf and open to have some kind of relationship with whatever the fuck that's gonna go on.

Vuyanzi 18:05

Oh, okay. That's what I came up with.

Brendan 18:07

That's what I came up with. But they also were in the comments. I okay, I'm talking about how to let him blah blah blah. I don't care. It don't matter what the face looked like under the clown mask, like I'm gonna take my chances.

Vuyanzi 18:19

Well, okay, so you'll have to find the angel. That's what they that's his nickname, unfortunately. Um, I'll just call him.

Brendan 18:26

So he's like a general or something, yeah.

Vuyanzi 18:28

But he he's 48 or something.

Brendan 18:31

You're lusting after Iranian military perspective.

Vuyanzi 18:35

Absolutely. I will tell you, and so are many other women. And then you should see him. He's like this, like nice cool.

Brendan 18:45

He's got like a big because look, one thing about me, I like a man with some with some big old titties. Like a man with like a prop, like some picks, like the ones that hang over and like cast a shadow with the light. That is mine. This guy don't even have to be big. It's like the like that, that's it. I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna tell you. Those are the three things that are he's here, he's here. I think if you saw it. Did you see that video of like the former NFL player that's like a personal trainer now, and he's like double triple stacked in the back? Wait, no, that weird. Not the weird one.

Vuyanzi 19:24

No, there's a new one.

Brendan 19:26

Okay, I know the one you're talking about. You're talking about the king squats or whatever. Not the one.

Vuyanzi 19:29

Yeah, that's ridiculous.

Brendan 19:30

No, this is the new one. His butt is like almost as big as that, but it looks real. This one looks real. He used to play in the NFL. I'm gonna find I'm gonna show you.

Vuyanzi 19:37

Oh my god, that guy with the big ass is disgusting.

Brendan 19:40

I'm sorry, but at some point, I'm like, if it's too big, I'm like, I know you can't clean that properly. Like, I know there's no sense.

Vuyanzi 19:48

Like when the skin part is not coming out like those.

Brendan 19:58

Like, I know you must smell like the couch that the mom sat on at Gilbert Green. Like, because there's no way, like, like because even if you are washing it, like it's never properly dried because it's like not air exposed for long enough to be dry because it's people closed the cheeks back up. You would literally have to lay on the bed or like be there like and like spread the cheese, like for it to dry properly.

Vuyanzi 20:30

I don't even think that thing is real. I don't I don't think it's real.

Brendan 20:33

T can't I feel like you would you would find fucking Bill Skarsgard as it like under there because it's like a sewer.

Vuyanzi 20:42

Hello! That's my new thing. Hello. Um anyway. Oh my goodness. Sorry. Anyway.

Brendan 20:50

Anyway, the world's crazy. That's all.

Vuyanzi 20:52

Okay. The world's crazy.

Brendan 20:54

But what's your black joy that you have amongst the crazy world?

Vuyanzi 21:00

I think it was the black joy I had was all the comments that the black women were making about the angel of death. I mean, that brought me joy. I don't have any of them right now, but you guys will have to.

Brendan 21:11

So it was mostly the sisters that were in the comments?

Vuyanzi 21:14

You know, the sisters was in the comments. Like laying it down the only way that a sister can.

Brendan 21:20

Like drop the ad. Drop the digits.

Vuyanzi 21:24

Yo. Slide of the D. They and in fact, someone in there went and they're like, I don't know who this is. And then they come back and then they have his stats.

Brendan 21:35

I live in a sanctuary city car over here. This is name his age, how many kids he's has, he's married, he's wearing because the Twitter police, like the Facebook police, Instagram police, they will find you.

Vuyanzi 21:48

How did they find him? I don't even know how they found him. But anyway, that brought me joy. Just looking at those comments, and my friend brought it to my attention. It made me so tickle. So that was mine. What about you? What's your Black joy.

Brendan 22:03

You made black joy.

Vuyanzi 22:07

That made me feel so nice, okay. Yes, what's your queer joy?

Brendan 22:16

I'm over here fasting at you, I didn't have time to pick it up before we started recording. Um was my queer joy?

Vuyanzi 22:27

I wasn't with you.

Brendan 22:30

When's the last time I saw you? It was before I went to the States the last time, right? Because you know I was in New Jersey last week.

Vuyanzi 22:37

We're in New Jersey. Were you in real New Jersey?

Brendan 22:39

I was in north new northern New Jersey.

Vuyanzi 22:40

Where?

Brendan 22:42

Um Bud Lake.

Vuyanzi 22:44

Oh, Bud Lake. Oh yeah, that's very north. Oh my gosh, we're in Bud Lake. Yeah. Oh, that's so interesting. I didn't I knew you were in the suburbs somewhere.

Brendan 22:53

Yeah, I would know your pictures. So I I was in Bud Lake for my friend's wedding. Yeah. And that was then I went to the shore after that.

Vuyanzi 23:01

The one where you missed the almost missed the invitation.

Brendan 23:05

Yeah.

Vuyanzi 23:06

Oh man. Was there any queer joy in that trip? In that wedding? Yeah, let's go ahead and tell us about that. Yeah, there's queer joy waiting right there.

Brendan 23:17

Yeah. No, I mean I mostly behaved ish.

Vuyanzi 23:23

All right. Was there a moment of joy though for you then?

Brendan 23:27

That is acceptable for me to share on the internet.

Vuyanzi 23:30

At this point, I don't think there's anything unacceptable.

Brendan 23:39

Oh, that's that's my downstairs name again. There's a piano. I don't know if y'all can hear, we're gonna find out. That's my he used to be just playing scales wrong for two hours at the time during COVID when we're trapped in here. Um I'm trying to think, like, what did I do? I'm like, do I remember? Where was I? What did I do?

Vuyanzi 24:07

Okay, well, you went to a wedding, but I feel like there's so much joy at a wedding. Did you experience anything? There's so much love and happiness.

Brendan 24:15

No, I mean there were there weren't any well. So there was there was like one guy from like the groom's party that like I so first of all, like I saw this man, he fine. Oh, he fine. Really?

Vuyanzi 24:27

Nice.

Brendan 24:29

I think he like Dominican or something.

Vuyanzi 24:31

Oh, okay, Dominican.

Brendan 24:34

Yes, like a snack. Um, but like I saw him and I was like, I know I recognize, and he like big and thick, like a rugby player. Oh like, and I was like, I know I've seen you before. But I was like, Where like where would that have happened? Yeah, and so you know, like the first like two days, I'm just like looking, and I'm like, and I kind of like we made some like small time, and so finally, like the day of the wedding after I'd had a few old fashions because there was an open bar. Yes, um, I love open bars, I was like, We have met before, and he was like, Yes, and I was like, Where? And he was like, I don't know. And I was like, for some reason, I feel like I met you at like our college reunion, but like you didn't go to college with that. And he was like, No, but that's what it was. But I still like I need to go back to my girlfriend also and just be like, Where? Like, cause why would he as like I mean, like they're like besties, like he was the best man, so he's like her husband's best friend, but her husband also didn't go to school with us, so but maybe oh, but it's his or maybe he did go to school with us, and I don't remember. I'm also I have a terrible memory, so all this is like grasping in the dark.

She remembered the bluest eye.

I mean Ooh, he was fine, and then what was so funny was like so apparently I was like lusting after him after my like 10 old fashions and like telling all the girls at the wedding party about I thought he was like just the finest thing ever. And then my friend drew it. I was like, Yeah, I had to go and warn him, like, you better watch out. Pinnacle beyond you. And then so they had like this very cute, like um, it was actually like a really cute. This is not like really technically queer droid, but whatever. I'm queer no strifeful. Um, so they're like one of their favor, well, so one of their favorites was like they made a homemade lemon cello. So like everyone got like a little bottle of lemon cello, like with their name and their table assignment on it, which was really cute. But then they had a woman there who like you would stand and pose and she would take your picture, yeah, and then she paints like watercolor paints like your portrait. Oh, I love it. And then you get it to take home. But so the next morning, like you know, when I went over to their house, because I stayed at her house for a couple of nights after the wedding. Like they went on their honeymoon, I was hanging out with her parents, we were having a whole time around. Um, she's like, look, like the only person who left their portrait was him.

Don't tell me. And I was like, Don't tell me you brought it back to Kenya with you. Oh my god!

Brendan 27:19

That is I was like, I'm gonna put it on the altar.

Vuyanzi 27:22

Oh my god, that is so stalker.

Brendan 27:26

Double double toilet.

Vuyanzi 27:31

You took his picture.

Brendan 27:33

I mean, it was not on purpose. It really was not on purpose, like so because her mama had given her mom gave me like a book and like it was on the counter, and so I guess it got stuck into the book. I promise you I didn't do it on purpose. No, I really didn't. But I sure did open up my bag and I was like, well.

Vuyanzi 27:56

Well, hello, hello. You should have had it here. You should have done the show and tell, but then maybe not, maybe we shouldn't do that. I'll show it to you later. Okay.

Brendan 28:03

In my cabin. So this is my chamber of secrets. My chamber of secrets.

Vuyanzi 28:10

So I think let's end it here.

Brendan 28:12
