Rene, welcome back to the talk show.

Thanks, always a pleasure.

Oh, man, how's your summer going?

Good, good. I mean, summer is supposed to be where things are slower, but it's been super hectic.

Workwise, you're saying.

Workwise, family-wise, you know, it's, this business when people come over to visit and you still have to work, so it's always odd.

Right, I totally know what you're talking about.

Yeah.

How's the weather up there?

It's muggy, so Canada, I don't know if, in English, I've ever explained this to people, but it goes from like minus 40, which I guess is like minus 30 Fahrenheit to plus 40, which is like 100 degrees over the course of a couple of weeks, and it's 100% humidity because Montreal is an island, so we just don't get nice weather.

I don't think you do.

I don't, I've only been to Montreal during Singleton and one time long, long, long, long before that, but I don't remember when it was, but I could tell that even, even in the winter, you can kind of tell it's it's high humidity.

The equinoxes are nice, that's about it.

Yeah.

Pretty hot here in Philadelphia as well.

I don't even know where to start. There's a lot going on.

Tell you anything.

Yeah, it's a sillier season than usual.

Yeah.

Did you see the article? I didn't even want to link to it.

You see this stupid fucking article in the Wall Street Journal over the weekend.

I know Trip Merkel or whatever the hell his name is.
