Hello and welcome to episode 39 of the Diz Unplugged connecting with Walt Podcast.

I am your host and Diz historian Michael Bowling, and I am joined by my co-host, producer, and good friend Craig Williams.

Hello, Craig, and happy new year.

Yes, happy new year.

Starting off strong.

We are.

We're starting off with a very different episode.

Yeah, different than, more different than anything we've ever done before, which is always, always exciting every time we go down to New Road with this show. And,

yeah, we're going down lots of new roads this year. So we are. And, and the first new road

you're going to really notice is that we're not going to really be bantering about our Christmas

holidays, because we're going to be very transited.

We were going to take you backstage on this show.

We're recording well before the Christmas holidays for this show just because we're

traveling and, you know, we all want to take some time off to be with our families.

But we want to make sure

you have a show to start off the new year. So we are recording this prior. It's actually the first

night of Hanukkah. Yes. So we hope all of you who celebrate Hanukkah had a wonderful

festive, joyous celebration, and all of you who celebrate Christmas and all the other holidays in the season

had wonderful celebrations with those you love the most.

Couldn't say it better myself.
