Hey guys, welcome to episode 231 of Hillbilly Horror Story. I'm Jerry and I'm Tracy.

We want to wish everyone a happy Kwanzaa, a happy Hanukkah and a Merry Christmas because all of those fall during the time between this episode and the next episode.

This is very true.

There you go.

Well Hanukkah already started.

That's true.

Kwanzaa starts the 26th I think and it goes on to January 1st and then Christmas is the 25th and this is going to come out on what the 20th.

Oh yeah, they're right.

Well they know what a year has been.

First of all, I want to thank all of our military and civil servants all over the world no matter which country you represent and Freddie jumped up on the table.

And he slid.

I Freddie, you have to get down recording here. This is a professional operation.

As we were saying before, we were so rudely interrupted by the cat.

Sorry you guys. I mean, I'm just saying he jumped up on the table and he like slid sideways and he just had to be there.

But thanks to all of our military and civil servants all over the world, over to which country you represent.

Thank you for all you do, especially during these hard times for your frontline workers.

Oh, absolutely. We appreciate you guys so much and we pray for you all every night and we want you all to be home with your family so bad.

But we appreciate you protecting us.

It means more to us than you can ever know.

Absolutely. Also, we want to remind everybody that if you're struggling right now from a mental standpoint, it's tough on a lot of people.

We're seeing more and more stuff on the news every single day.
