[00:31] put up, Deie? Yeah. >> Let's get John's live reaction. So, when this was happening, when you and I did episodes 278 and 279 together, which was a year ago, >> I remember this was probably like an hour 20ome minutes into the first episode, and I remember this whole Lincoln thing coming up out of nowhere. My god, this is cool. He's a Lincoln collector. And then you look at me with a dead straight face, and you're like, yeah, I was trying to buy Lincoln's last turd.

I see an article in the Washington Post about 6 months later saying it's going out of business and they're going to auction everything off. So I told my wife, >> I'm buying that tur. >> She's like, >> "Oh, no you're not." >> I said, "Oh yes, I am. I'm buying that
[02:05] tur." >> My wife and I actually have strong disagreements about this. I go to the auction and I >> I talk about at 1,200. It ends up going for 5 grand. So the guy that ended up buying it sends it to some company for a DNA sample. And what they found was it had like microscopic bits of a neco wafer in it.

And he said, "Well, you know, it's going to be this is the story." I was like, "Yeah, that actually sounds like a compelling story line." And I'm thinking, "Why is he telling me this? I'm happy for him. He's going to write this movie." And he said, "Uh, you're going to be in my movie." And I said, "Oh, thank you. No, no, no. I'm not interested." I said, "Listen, I'll be stiff and uh unconvincing. I would be
[04:43] a terrible actor. I've never acted before and I would wreck your movie." And he said, 'Well, I thought of that and I thought you've been you acted every day of your career when you were with the CIA. I said, 'Well, that's actually that's actually true.

And then the star of the movie is a a a really great guy, very generous with his time and his advice. Uh Jeff Fehee, >> I really hit it off with him. He would stand just off camera and whisper directions to me and it made me like I guess believable enough that I didn't make an ass of myself in this movie. So we watched the first cut a
[06:16] couple of Saturdays ago >> and I was like this movie's actually good. >> Like I would go to the theater to watch it. >> What's What's it about? It's about the richest guy in the world who's a cross between Elon Musk and um and uh Eric Prince and he has a son who has become his daughter and so they're estranged and he hasn't told anybody but he's dying of liver cancer
[06:46] >> and so he invites the the country's preeminent lefty podcaster and the country's pre-minent righty podcaster to come and he's going to tell his story for the first time and then they sort of are competing with one another how they're going to shape the story. One falls apart, the other one gets it done and then I'm the director of the guy's security detail. Uh former CIA ops officer. >> Oh, right on Q. There you go. But you had to play a bit of a tough guy, right? >> Yeah, I had to play an [ __ ] The guy
