I'm here to tell you right now, we don't care.

Hey, we're recording the podcast.

Shut up.

Good morning to you, wherever you are, because it is...

Morning September!

For August 20th, 2004.

My name...

That was early.

My name is Burns.

Sitting right over there. She does care. Everybody, she cares. She cares so much. Her name's Ashley Burns. How are doing, Ash? I'm a, I'm a care bear. She's got a, she's at an emotional time in her life, everybody. It is. We'll talk more about that in a minute. It's a big day. For me. We'll talk more about that in a second. Okay. Let's talk about some world news first. First, really quick roundup in entertainment news. Acolyte, the Star Wars series on Disney Plus, has been canceled after its first season.

People really didn't like it, and now people are starting to decry Lucas Films.
