All right, we got to move is a there's an emergency schedule episode of the talk show Matthew Panzerino is kind enough to shuffle a schedule

0:08.5

We're recording on Wednesday night. We got a baseball game coming up big important wild card game with the the giants and the Metz

0:16.7

I've got travel plans this weekend that have been rescheduled because there's apparently a hurricane

0:22.0

That is coming towards the United States and so we could either record a short episode right now short for the talk show or

0:28.9

Probably no episode until next week. So anybody who looks at the time on this and says wow, that's too short

0:35.0

Well, it's better than nothing and for those of you who've been begging for shorter episodes of the show here you go to Giff just for you

0:42.6

You're welcome. Thank the wild card. Yeah race. Yeah, all right. I'm not a giants fan, but my family is yeah

1:44.6

Yeah, that one was a crime of expediency

1:48.0

There was no careful designer behind that one and I'll think

1:53.3
