Hi, Father Knows family. Before we get into this week's episode, we just want to talk about what's

0:06.0

going on out there right now. As most of you guys know, we're from Minnesota and our state is being

0:12.6

bombarded with ice agents and just horrific treatment of human beings and senseless murder of people, just going about their day and trying

0:24.2

to be good people. And now more than ever feels like it is the time to speak up and stand up for

0:32.7

what's right. I mean, what's going on right now is without a doubt, horrible, senseless. It doesn't make sense. Like, there's, there's just like no words for it even. Yeah, it doesn't really feel like a matter of opinion at this stage. It's a matter of right and wrong. And it feels like we're way too heavily in the wrong category. So we just wanted to highlight

0:56.8

that and we'll put some resources and how you can help and get involved down in the description.

1:02.3

Yeah, now more than ever, make sure you are looking at the links we share, calling your

1:06.8

representatives and demanding change. We have midterms coming up this year and we really, really,

1:12.7

really need to make a difference and this needs to stop. Thank you for being here another week.

1:20.5

Enjoy the episode. Let it be a good distraction for you all. I know so many of us are deeply hurt by all

1:27.3

of this. So we're thinking of all of you out there

1:30.0

and especially those whose family and friends are impacted by all of these horrific ice

1:37.2

raids. We're thinking of you guys. And we're all in this together. So let's let's do it.

1:46.6

Welcome to this week's episode of Father Know Something. I'm going to pull these things off. So no one has to look at me through them.

1:51.4

If I look like a disaster zone, it's because I feel like a disaster zone. Yeah, why's not?

1:57.4

Well, you know, it's been busy, been busy, busy weeks. All these jobs that I had and for some reason fell behind. Wedding and all this other stuff. I mean, I can use excuse after excuse. The bottom line is there is no excuse. I should be done with them. Okay. I'm not. I'm hopefully to be done in the next two weeks with all last year's work.

2:19.1

And then we go on the new stuff. So with all that, I look like a mess because I got up this

2:25.9

morning early and battled with my heater at home and, you know, all the domestic stuff, guys.

2:32.2

We all get those curb balls throwing us.

2:35.0

We just slow down, deal one thing at a time, and we'll make it through it.

2:40.0

That's all you can do.

2:41.0

But we're still here for our people.
