But then when I arrived there they made it clear that the folks that had been nominated as doing a good job as a political appointee were going to get to talk to him alone in the Oval Office, and I was not mentally prepared for that at all… And he’s like, ‘First things first, I understand that you want to set Lulu up with Bo’ —
and I’m like, how does he know my dog’s name. So I say, ‘Yes sir, my friends and I joke about that.’ And he was like, ‘I feel like I should tell you, Bo is fixed.’ I said, ‘Oh ya so is she, so they could just be platonic friends.’ And it was the only clever thing I said for the rest of the interaction.
