Welcome, welcome, welcome to armchair expert.
This is Dax shepherd, and I'm joined by Lily Padman.
You know what's funny is we had a meeting and we had a meeting with some people, and they thought our catchphrase was hello.
Hello, hello.
Which was so fun.
It was on a deck.
It was on a deck.
And I wondered, I was like, oh, my God, how long are we gonna go before he has to correct this?
Well, I didn't want it to get too far down the path.
I know you were.
I could feel it, though.
It needed to be cleared up immediately.
And by the way, this easiest mistake.
Cause if, like, you listen to the show and you're like, yeah.
And then he says something three times, of course it's hello.
Hello.
It makes sense.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello is hard to do.
