we can, here we are almost 20 years later, still talking about it because it's like, it was a core thing that happened to us that doesn't happen to everyone else, you know?

And you don't realize, I mean, sometimes it was authentic maybe, but like for the most part, it really wasn't. And so you're like, oh, yesterday you were my friend, but now today you're saying this stuff on camera. Like, Yeah. It was, I think that made it a little bit harder on relationships in the moment.
