| 0:22.4 | but you should go subscribe so you can watch these interviews live. |
| 0:25.3 | We had almost 200 people there, and I would love to have you there chiming in. |
| 0:29.0 | Love to take your comments and bring them into the conversation. |
| 0:32.5 | It's always great to be live. |
| 0:34.1 | That conversation on today's episode of Stand Up begins at 27 minutes. But I do have your |
| 0:39.9 | headlines and a clip show, which I'm very excited to share with you, lots of good stuff to share |
| 0:46.5 | from the last 24 hours. I want to apologize to those of you that are missing the regular |
| 0:52.7 | Monday night hangouts that we've been doing since the election back in November. |
| 0:57.2 | I've really benefited from just a little bit time off, a little bit, one more night off. |
| 1:03.0 | As a matter of fact, last night I took advantage of it, and I went outside to see the moon, went down by the Hudson River, and experienced the full |
| 1:13.3 | super harvest moon here in early October, and it was wonderful. And I was just down there alone |
| 1:20.4 | enjoying myself and relaxing on a beautiful warm night here in October. So I'm sorry to those of you that are missing the Monday |
| 1:29.3 | night hangouts. I'm sure I will bring them back and do random two hangouts a week. I know how |
| 1:35.0 | much people look forward to them, but I just need one more night, a little bit more time off |
| 1:40.2 | and to myself, especially this month, in the run up to 50. At the end of the month, I'm really trying to get as healthy as I can between now and then and form some healthy new habits and stuff like that. |
| 1:51.9 | So anyway, let's get to the show. |
| 1:55.3 | But I will see you at Thursday nights hangout anytime on the Discord platform. |
