Hello and welcome to Catholic Answers Live. I'm Cy Kellett, your host. Oh, I just came in from the cold of Southern California. I think it dipped into the high 60s. So that was a little chilly. We're going to do a little something different today for Christmas Day. Merry Christmas to you. Thank you for being here with us today and every day that you've been here with us in the last year. And I thought I'd reflect first a little bit on the year. We had a lot of blessings here at Catholic Answers in the studios department. John Versillo, he's got a married daughter now. Franannie's married. So we got a marriage.

We got two babies in our department.

Unless I am mistaken, we got two babies in our department.

Darren welcomed his sixth child and Edgar welcomed his first child. I know there will be a second one soon with Edgar because Lena is already missing his infancy. She's sad that he's

not a tiny little infant anymore. So I think nature is telling us baby number two will be coming

soon. So that's pretty good. Are there any other things that I should say? Any other great

gifts of the department? I do, I am going to mention that we have a new employee in our department. We have a new colleague in our department. Johnny turned 18. Oh, Johnny Versillo turned 18. Okay. So he's had to stop his criminal activities. That's not, no. Johnny's the sweetest guy. And the day he turned 18, I told him to knock

off his criminal life because now he could serve real time. But he's so innocent. I don't think he,

I think he was like, I'm not a criminal. So Luke Bender came. We got Luke Bender back in the spring.

He came from the Midwest. He's a computer genius. He's

really a super high energy, super well organized, and very creative, intelligent person, all of which is new for us here at Catholic Answers.

We haven't, just kidding. I'm only kidding about that. But Luke has really brought

something great. He understands YouTube in a way that I don't think any of us have ever understood

YouTube. And if you want to grow in the media world, you've got to grow on YouTube these days.

So he's just killing it then. Plus, we really like Luke. So, let's see. Oh, we also got this new

studio set up here at the end of the year. Edgar came in on a long weekend and just killed it.

Just knocked it out of the park. The thing I've been wanting, we don't quite have it working yet,

but I've been wanting, I don't know have it working yet, but I've been wanting,

I don't know if you can see in the shot that TV. That will become, when we're interviewing people, you'll be able to see that, the person that we're interviewing on that TV. I think that

adds something nice. But look at this beautiful table that Edgar built. He cut the tree down.

How, or no, Ikea?

I don't know where he got it.
