What's going on with your show with Christina? We have beta tested that and rejected it. So Christina and I were going to do a separate thing with the two of us and we filmed a few and played it back to see if we liked what we saw. And we just didn't enjoy doing it enough. So I think if it had been bad but we loved doing it we probably would have done it until we could do it well. But it was bad a…
← Previous segment →Somebody says coronavirus wedding. Well here's the thing. We were engaged and we're talking about our wedding plans so we have not finalized anything. But of course all of our plans were built around some kind of travel. And one of the main places that we were planning to travel this year, or at least I was, I was going to tell her about that later, but was Italy. And Italy of course is off the list as is travel basically. So here's the good news. This coronavirus is bad for extroverts but it's not bad for everybody if you know what I mean. Introverts and people who didn't like crowds anyway are just saying are you serious? I just got an excuse for being exactly the way I want to be anyway. And the answer is yeah you did. You just got an excuse for being exactly the way you wanted to be anyway, which is stick to yourself, keep your numbers low. So we don't have a plan yet but you are right it probably will be a coronavirus wedding. Which means you know that awkward part where you don't know who to invite? I think we might be able to avoid the awkward part where you don't know who to invite because that's coronavirus. Well if it will invite nobody or just a few people anyway we'll work that out. Yeah introverts are kind of winning in this I have to admit that. I'm sort of a converted introvert. I would say that I'm genetically inclined to introversion and I like lots of alone time. I need lots of alone time. I need hours every day where I don't see other people or else I get a little squirrely. So I have a Periscope wedding. Oh my god that's a good idea. That's a good idea. I don't think I could convince Christina but I'd do it if it were up to me. I'd do it. I don't think there's any chance she would agree to it but that is a damn good idea. I'll bet you. Yeah I bet you. Good to see a bunch of video weddings right because nobody wants to go infect all their own relatives. That's the worst thing in the world. So like I said I'm gonna be enjoying my alone time. I think I'm gonna be doing the experience in Italy which was really scary. I think I'm gonna be doing a lot of social distancing. I told you that it's helpful to have a project. So if you too are going to be social distancing and I hope that you do, you should have a project. And the project is not something you're working on all the time but just something you have as a fun thing that you want to improve, a skill you're working on. And in my case I've decided to work on my arms. And again it doesn't matter what it is. Just something you always wanted to do that you wouldn't have had time to do before because in your busy life but now you're gonna be home a lot. So my goal is I'm going to try to work on my muscles so you can look at it before and after. So I'm telling you now that three months from now since I'll have so much time in my home gym I hope to make a muscle and it's bigger. And then I'm going to say huh well I was locked up for three or four months but look at these guns. Now of course that's a vain and not very important objective. You might want to learn a language. You might want to pick up a skill. Take an online class. But take advantage of it because I'm not entirely sure we're worse off by pulling back and maybe you know having a little alone time. Maybe learn to meditate. I hear that's good for your body.

So I think we'll you know. I'm just looking at your comments. All right thanks for the comments and I will talk to you later.
