Well exactly.
But that has actually reminded me of Steve Earle's song "Johnny Come Lately" which I love.
When I first got to London it was pourin' down rain
Met a little girl in the field canteen
Painted her name on the nose of my plane
Six more missions I'm gone
[...] Well they can ship me all over this great big world
But I'll never find nothing like my North End girl

Children's Playground in Golden Gate Park (10 minutes from my house) is the oldest public playground in the country. They've got see-saws and the merry-go-round things (as well as an actual Carousel). Emmett and I frequent something like six different playgrounds all walkable from my house.

It's going to be chatty/interview based, not a variety show like Money Or The Gun, as I understand it. And there's going to be a shooting of a pilot in Sydney on the 12th of March, for which tickets are being given away right now.
Thanks John, have they announced the date for the premiere ep.
