From the Bob Barley studio in Orlando, Florida, you're listening to the Diz Unplugged.

Hello and welcome to the Diz Unplug roundtable discussion for January 5, 2010.

From Orlando, Florida, I'm your host Pete Werner joined at the table this week by absolutely no one.

That's right, I am sitting here by myself practically in the dark and I am alone.

It's kind of weird, but I will tell you why we have four members of our team down with the flu.

And I'm assuming this is a nationwide event or occurrence that everybody's getting sick.

I keep reading about it on the boards and it is definitely a problem here in Florida.

Everybody's getting sick.

I got Teresa sick, Kathy sick, Kevin sick, Corey's just getting over it.

John is petrified that he's going to get these coming down with it.

So I thought it best, oddly enough I am the one not sick, I'm fine, I'm not good.

But yeah, I'm the one right now that seems to be dodging this particular bullet.

And I want to keep it that way.

So I told everybody, you know, as much as I want to do a show with everybody,

it's best that they stay home and rest.

But I also didn't want to start the new year off with no show.

So I decided to do what I'm calling the sick show, a solo show that we can put up so that there's a show up.

And I'm not trying not to do a throw together here.

So I'm trying to actually do a show that will be somewhat enjoyable.

I know that some of you will enjoy me doing this, some of you won't.

I understand this is not ideal that you want the whole team and so do I.

But I thought this was a good compromise given the circumstances.
