Transcript:
Mr. Burke: Which is more intimidating: Remote but keenly felt flirtation with mortality, like skydiving? Or certain discomfort, like distance running? Frazz: I don't like to brag, but you can have it both ways. Mr. Burke: Oh. Right, Mr. open-water swimmer. Frazz: Mr. Saturday at the supermarket.
