So we forgot one specific person on our list on our last show of amazing

0:29.9

guests that we had. Mr. Mike Vinicore, who has loaned me his studio space for the past four or

0:36.0

five episodes, but he was in the other room and I was thinking about him going,

0:39.5

damn I need to hurry up because he needs to come in and feed the dog. So I would like to have a

0:44.8

specific shout out to my friend Mr. Mike Vinicore who is a awesome dude and I would like to now

0:51.7

ask you Brian, if you had one wish for the holidays for the peoples of the internet and the world,

0:57.6

what would it be? Well, I'll just I'll plagiarize one of my own Facebook rents. It appears I

1:57.9

and then they ignore everything else and then they ask the question that you answered in the post itself.

2:03.2

Yes, yes, yes, that I've had. I especially like when you send an email and you lay out the words

2:09.4

and when they come back with the email saying, oh, but you forgot this. I'm like, no, that was

2:14.5

sentence number two. Words, words, Jason. I want tickets and I saw a picture of a cat.

2:21.0

Yes, scanning is the way of the future. So I hope that people will read in the future because we do
