Welcome to Ear Biscuits. I'm Link and I'm Rhett. This week at the round table of dim lighting,

we're gonna do the Q&A that we said that we didn't know if we wanted to do. That's right. The

last year's series all along the way we prompted you guys to use hashtag Ear Biscuits and let us

know how you were processing and if particular questions arose, let us know. And I think I don't

think we said if concerns arose, let us know. But I guess that happened too. Yeah. Well,

what we talked about last week was how we're processing this whole thing and how

we have a tendency, I think maybe me more than Link have a tendency to once I start looking at

questions and thinking about what people are saying and asking. Like I start wanting to defend

myself and to justify myself, especially if I see that I'm kind of being misunderstood or

misrepresented. But I am becoming a healthier person as I get older and I am learning more what

is just me and my ego. And so we decided to instead of getting into answering questions last

week to kind of just get into our process. But also what we talked about was we don't want

this podcast to become a place where we just kind of spout off our opinions when it comes to

things that we're ultimately not qualified to talk about. And so because you can very quickly

get into this place where two guys who are basically have been making a living on YouTube for over a

decade are sitting around and trying to tell you their particular apologetic perspective. Giving

persuasive arguments for what for what beliefs you should adopt is not something that we're going

to do because there's a lot of people out there who have dedicated their lives to studying

some of the things that we talked about and their experts in their field and there's so many books

that have been written articles that have been written about all the things that we talked about.

So it is up to you to go and do your own research come to your own conclusions.

But I do think that there were a lot of questions that were asked just from a very curious place.
