Gerry Lore: I got 1/2 of a song dedication from Phoebe Bridgers when she played ‘Kyoto’ and asked if there were any dads in the audience, as that song was ‘for the dads’.

Our CEOs are in danger - they’re being gunned down in the street! Until this threat has passed we have to hide them somewhere the assassins can’t reach them: a submarine at the bottom of the ocean.

Hey, are you ok? You seem like you’re having a hard time. Do you want to cower in this bunker with me? I’ve got space for maybe like three more cowerers in here
