I'm a scoussa.

0:02.3

We don't get knocked out.

0:04.0

Hey, we're recording the podcast.

0:07.0

Shut up.

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

Morning, September!

For June 3, 2021.

My name is Bernie Burns, sitting right over there next to a very frightened cat.

0:25.8

Is Ashley Burns, say hi to Ashley, everybody. He's got to be used to it at this point. I don't

0:30.4

understand how every time we sit down in these chairs, we put on the headphones, and then you

I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. All right. So we had this, we had this bike ride that we did while we were there. It was... We talked a lot more about this on the Patreon episode this weekend. We did a deep dive on our trip to Amsterdam. Yes. But this bike ride was unexpectedly long.
