Hello and welcome to the first episode of Affirmative Murder of 2022.

This is the Equal Opportunity True Crime Comedy Podcast. I'm Alvin Williams. Join us always by my partner in True Crime, Fransell Evans.

What up? First of all, if you're listening to this, give a round of applause for yourself for making it through the gruelish year that was 2021, Fran. What a year that was.

I don't really want to set the bar high for 2022, but I feel like we should congratulate ourselves on the back for just making it to here.

Yeah.

And yeah, I'm excited. I'm looking forward to whatever's to come. How you feeling about the new year so far?

I don't know, man. I just don't. Somebody, one of the listeners, hit me up about something and I told them it makes me nervous.

Every time it's about to be the first thing it makes me nervous. Like when it's the end of the one year, but it makes me nervous every time.

Because like you don't, it's like you open up in this door, you opening this door and you don't know what's behind it.

That's exciting, too.

Is it?

It used to be, you know, before 2019, yeah, before 2019, it was a little, it was a lot more exciting than, you know, the pandemic being behind one of the doors and, you know,

a whole bunch of celebrities and stuff dying and everything and people dying from sick.

You know, before we gave you things, rest a piece, Betty White.

Rest in peace.

Imagine dying on the last day of the year.

But you know, something I was talking to a friend and they said that their mom said that it's actually a good omen.

Because Betty White died on the last day of 2021 and not the first day of 2022.

So it didn't kick off 2022 and like ended the shitty hellish year of 2021.

I guess it depends on the way you look at it, but I just see, I just saw her on the cover of People magazine.

Sure.

And it was like, oh, what is Betty White?
