00:00one quick email to get to here um this guy says uh hey so we well they go to a university i won't
00:15give too much information yeah um we love the show my roommate and i are having trouble though
00:20deciding what's the most effective and subtle sign to be able to tell each other that we have
00:26company and need privacy oh uh it's easy we have a two-bedroom place in ann arbor
00:33but it's yeah i wonder where they go i'll give it away it's still nice to have some college alone
00:40time without someone else walking in and spoiling the mood so he suggested the old tie on the doorknob
00:46but i thought that's too obvious and ridiculous i'm thinking maybe like a lava lamp in the front
00:51window any other ideas you guys could give us to be more subtle yeah i guess a light being on
00:59wouldn't be the worst he had to put a sticky note on the door that says we're doing it
01:03yeah i mean that's or you can go that way come back in 30 minutes i thought it was always back in 10
01:09minutes just something in the door or yeah i mean as a guy would you give a day i wouldn't care i mean
01:14i guess he were they're worried about the girl they're with be like hell well or you're you don't
01:19have a lot of room and you're doing hey quit banging around my stuff you know you're all over
01:25the place you could always just send him a text got somebody coming over tonight thank you jason
01:35pretty logical that's a michigan man right there hey we're banging tonight don't come home yep got
01:40somebody coming over yeah i'm gonna come home later i just got a text next dr hemorrhoid in the making
01:46yeah he nailed it better than a lava lamp yeah weird idea yeah i guess uh yeah crazy a text will
01:57work turns out yeah no there's there there's a fog light on that means they're just doing oral
02:05you have to pull out your cheat sheet to figure out what they're up to oh no the front porch and
02:09the back porch lights are on i forgot what that one means they're doing it from the front and the back
02:13oh wow yeah yeah yeah i've been waiting in the car then like obviously when i was younger i hung out
02:19with um people that worked in radio and we would every once in a while we'd be in a scenario where
02:26it's like you've come back to a place and there's like my buddies he's hanging out with a girl i'm
02:32hanging out with a girl and you're trying to get some kind of like separation to happen and we would
02:39talk about recording commercials and when we recorded commercials we would say how long the
02:47commercial was and that was how much time we needed for stuff to go down and he'd be like yeah
02:54i had to record i had to record
02:56yeah yeah yeah yeah i would be like i had a 10 i had a 10 unit if you said if you said that that means
03:05you needed five minutes but need some aloe vera in there for that burn you know someone would say
03:10hey man i need uh i recorded a 60 second spot uh yesterday i'd be like oh yeah yeah and then i'd be
03:18we would separate and then it'd be like okay one hour we can then return well you need five seconds
03:26that's all i would need
03:29that's all i would need i was like man these liners keep getting shorter and shorter
03:33as the years go by oh man oh man now it's like i i didn't need the mic didn't even go on
