Chris Check says happy. Chris Check, Joe Heschmeier here. As I said, my name is Cy Kellett, and we are the flannel panel. We wear flannel shirts and talk about the news of the world from a Catholic perspective may i say something about my flannel shirt this is a debut i'm debuting it this is your

anne it's anne zedra the great anne perspective. May I say something about my flannel shirt? This is a debut. I'm debuting it.

This is your Ann? It's Anne Zedra. The great Anne Zedra sent this to me. I wore my,

my Ann Zedra last time. This is the first time I've worn it. I like it very much.

It's really nice. Thank you, Anne. And you're the best best it's pathetic that we still forget our

flannels and when you have sent us so many flannel but i will point out i i've

remembered to wear it we all did we all wore it today i've never forgotten you've never

forgotten flannel no it's always been me and joe i did not know that is he telling me the truth

or is he pulling my leg that's the truth darren says that's the j. And Darren remembers everything. All right, so this time we'll get to the big secular stories.

We talked about the church last hour and kind of did a church in review in our own way.

This time we'll talk about the secular stories. But I did say in the church section,

I talk about a death in an election. And then I realized,

it took me a second. I never got back. It took me a second to understand which death and

election you were talking about. Did you know what I was talking about? I figured it up.

And then the election of? Pope Francis. Let me guess. Wait, how many guesses do I get?

All right. I didn't. I thought, because Charlie Kirk died and and I think a lot of people thought that was the big death of the year. You know, like I don't. Who was elected to replace Charlie Kirk? I don't know. I don't know how those things work. But so I realized maybe people would have thought, because it was a year in review, I was talking about Charlie Kirk at the break. That's what I realized. But what I was talking about when it was

regarding the Catholic Church in review was the death of a pope and the election of a pope.

But that was clear to you, Chris. You didn't need a clarification on that. I kept up with you.

You kept up with me. All right. In my advanced years. All right. I got six huge stories, and I'm not going to do them. I'm going to try to do them in reverse order of importance, but I might not. So story number six, you'll be like, really? That's a big story of the year? But I think it is a big story of the year.
