All right, Mike, I got to get this over with. You know, as I've gotten older, I've tried to be a

rip the band-aid off kind of person. You know, if you have something that's uncomfortable,

you need to talk about, just rip the band-aid off and deal with it. And we're going to do this

publicly, and we're going to do this right at the beginning of the show. So we're going to set the tone for the show for the month right now.

It's just ripping it.

We're just ripping it right off.

That's the tone of the month.

So the theme for the rest of May, which there isn't a lot, is just rip it.

Just rip it and rip it good.

So I was talking with a friend of mine, or actually, no, that's not true.

He sent a text randomly.

This was maybe a month ago, maybe a little bit less.

It was certainly since we last recorded.

He sent a text all of a sudden, hey, is this the pop socket you got?

And it's a link to Amazon.

And I said, yes.

Yes, it is.

Oh, okay, cool.

Thanks.

And then I just kind of let it sit.

And then fast forward a couple of weeks.

And this is Big Phone Brad.
