And Spivey, where are you talking to us from? I'm in North Carolina. Everything's fine. I'm still getting over that Focaccia flu.

Right. The scourge that we all got at the plaza. I blame Lin-Manuel Miranda. I feel like he was patient zero. Because everywhere I went, I saw him.

Whenever I've worked with him and he played a character on a show that I did, he was the biggest cheerleader. Just a positive joy bomb all the time. Brought so much to the role. Helped to really develop this character. And then was completely so supportive and positive the whole time. Showed up for every event. Just an absolute gentleman, funny joy bomb. I mean, what a delight.

And I thank him for that because that was a show that I had created and was running. And he really helped with my confidence. Like, I would find myself going, oh, thank God Ike's going to be there today. Like, okay, good. Ike B, fucking God. You're God among men.

And Polar and I are trying to guess which parking structure you're in. Oh, God. What structure is she in?

How are his girls? How is it being, how is it being a girl dad? And because that's something I really always admired, too, is the fact because he has three girls, right? Three girls.

Well, yeah, I thank God I had a boy. If I had a girl, I'd be completely like half crazy. I wouldn't know what to do.

I'm the oldest and then I have a younger sister, but people think that I'm the youngest a lot because my sister is so responsible and seems like an adult. And I guess I don't seem like that.

That's what people don't realize about Polar. She's weirdly older than both her parents.
