Hey, we're recording the podcast.

Shut up.

Good.

Marned you wherever you are, because it is...

Morning Somewhere!

4 to 9th, 2020.

My name is Bernie Burns.

Setting right over there. Don't call her jinks.

Dashy Burns, say hi to Ashley, everybody.

That's my Gamer tag.

I know. I was, uh, the pause there during my intro.

Oh, I heard it.

I was going to say my gamer tag, but the gamer tag is Birdie Birdt.

I thought you forgot your name. Years ago, I tried to get Bernie on all social media networks, and I consider Xbox Live to be the social media network of gamers. Interesting. Gamers. Interesting. At least the gamers, I want to hang out with. The capital G gamers. And I couldn't get Bernie. I was in the Xbox Live beta test way back in the day. I think that was like 2005 because it didn't come out with the original Xbox. And I could have chosen whatever name I wanted to. And I chose Busby because that was my handle at the time. Your handle. And I always regretted it. So I tried to get Bernie from the person who has Bernie on Xbox Live. I should say,

please do not message this person. There's no reason to message this person about this,

because I message them and I said, would you be interested in parting with that? Anything that

I could do to possibly incentivize that, et cetera? And they said, no, I wouldn't get rid of this

because it's got sentimental value because I was on the Xbox Live launch team.

Yeah.

So that's some comfort, though, right?

Because then by the time the beta rolled around, by the time you even could have gotten it, that ship had already sailed.

Never even had a shot.
