Freedom!

Hey, we're recording the podcast.

Shut up.

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

Morning Somewhere!

For September 19th, 2020.

My name is Bernie Burns.

Sitting right over here is my special guest, returning once again to the podcast, Miss Becca

Frazier.

Say how to Becca, everybody.

Hello, everybody.

I just had a great moment on the stairs.

I was talking to our little one-year-old.

And I said, can you say Becca?

And she looked at me and she goes, Becca.

Like, you have an easy to pronounce name, I think, for kids. Yeah. It's generally pretty successful. Also, I want to say something. So we're recording this in Scotland. Last time you and I recorded, we were in Austin. We were. But you have been here before. I have, yeah. To our house in Scotland. You have an amazing track record. Great weather

follows you. Did it rain the entire last time you were here? I think we had one little spell of like

15 minutes of legitimate rain. And then the rest of the time it's pretty warm and sunny. Yeah.

I don't know what the precise meteorological term is, but it has rained like a motherfucker here all summer long. It has been like, it literally like set records for rainfall in Scotland.

I mean, we know what we're getting into. We know. We're using the hairspray. We're throwing away the plastic. You know, we know what we're doing. Yeah, you were talking, you had this, uh, uh, when you showed up here, you made the comment, which a lot of my friends in Austin have said, which is like, this was an amazing mild summer. Yeah. In Austin. Yeah. I mean, it really was, and yet still the seventh hottest on record.

Wow. was an amazing mild summer. Yeah. In Austin. Yeah. I mean, it really was, and yet still the seventh hottest on record. What is with that? So you thought of it as being like a mild summer, but it's still the seventh hottest of all time. Yeah. And like, you know, I've been in Austin for about 25 summers now. I could, I mean, I feel like they've all been horrible. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, maybe there's some standouts, right? Maybe there's like a 100-way tie for the

seventh mildest. So that makes me wonder, what was the hottest ever? Because I feel like it

would have been, uh, I think it was last year. Was it last year? Oh, that would make sense. Yeah,
