Welcome everybody to the Here We Are Podcast Fantastic episode today. I don't want to pick favorites.

It's a little unfair to other guests, but today, I'll just say that I enjoyed the heck out of today's episode and I think you guys will as well

Very different subject matter than we've talked about before and not just really interesting but also

had some good laughs along the way just a great mix of everything you're gonna love

it thank you to the Patreon supporters of the the podcast paying for editing website upkeep that sort of thing as I get more I'll have

money to advertise to get more listeners and and eventually maybe even get paid for the time that I'm putting into this and be able to put even

more time in and get more guests and do more research ahead of time and all of that stuff trying to find a

balance now with doing this podcast and my busy stand-up career.

So I appreciate the support, especially

the top-tier Patreon members

who are donating $20 a month. That is amazing and fantastic.

DJ Willis, Michael Wicks, Casey Bishop, Robert Johnson, Madison Tucker, and Tony, Tony with no last name, so any
