Well, the real, real, I find- Shout out to Rowing Blazers. They come and pick up my wife's stuff frequently, and then when they return it, I just, can't they keep it? I obviously don't want it. That's why I gave it to you. Donate it. What is the – you mailing it back to me and it's all packaged in plastic and folded. I'm like, you've already done all the work. Just get rid of it.

Amazon, when I had my pre-order speaking of my book, not to drop my book, they said, okay, we're going to announce your book pre-order. Amazon fucking dropped the ball. And my pre-order announcement, no one could buy the book. Like

Speaker 1
that. Yeah. And they were like, it's going to be ready this day on Amazon. All these messages, it took them like a week to figure it out. So Amazon's on my shit list right now. So
