All right, Mike, so here's the thing. I don't really like doing a formal pre-show on any show, really, but particularly this show. I like just kind of diving right in, oftentimes by screwing with you, right? Just to get a good start to the episode. But today, I wanted to put a couple of disclaimers up front. Number one, I am coming off of a cold, so I might sound a little bit nasal. I apologize for that. This is like Muppet Casey. It's like, hey. Hi, guys, it's me. But anyway, so I sound a little funny. That's not Mike. It's certainly not Jim. It's me. I'm high on the problem. It's me. I don't know, because I don't want anyone to blame anyone but me for that.

No one should have been absolutely clear. All right. Well, you know what it was? Mike told me to get a new microphone. No, I'm just kidding. But anyways, that's number one. Number two, there is construction happening in the house. We're going to talk about that later. This morning, there was no loud anything happening. I believe they were doing like

sanding and painting and things of that nature. But then moments before I got on the phone with

Mike, what did I hear? A saw. Because of course I did. So if you hear things in the background,

I will attempt to mute where I can. I'm sure Jim will do absolutely incredible things to clean up the audio, as Jim always does.

But again, blame me, not Jim, and apparently definitely not Mike, but blame me if things are off.

And blame me if things are off.

I am very sorry.

But that is, I just want to get that out of the way because a lot of times people will be like, hey, man, you sounded. Yeah, I know. I've got a cold. Hey, man, did I hear a buzzing? Yeah, yep, yep. There was a saw going on. So my apologies to everyone, but the show, as they say, Mike, must go on. It's like sort of people who like skip ahead 30 seconds for some reason, you know, to start.

And then they're still going to come at you.

You'll be like, hey, why'd you do that?

Yep, exactly. must go on. It sucks for the people who like skip ahead 30 seconds for some reason, you know, to start.

And then they're still going to come back.

You'll be like, hey, where'd you do that? Yep, exactly right. Yeah, you know, there's another show that's going to have to go on this month, Mike. Yes, it's a big show. It's the big show, you could say. The big show. Isn't that a wrestler? Who was that?

The Big Show.

Big Show.

Oh, that literally was a...

Well, it's the Big Show.

I thought the music used to begin. I see. What was the gentleman's actual name? Paul White. Oh, okay. Yeah, see, I guess I did know him as a big show then because that doesn't ring any bells. Fair enough. Anyway, there's a big show happening all too soon. I am not at all prepared for this. I hope you are more prepared than I, and I hope Stephen is even more prepared than you. But what's going on the month of September, Mike? It's Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Childhood Cancer Awareness Month happens throughout September, and it is an opportunity for us to once again come together as a

community in the fight against childhood cancer. We have been raising money at Relay for St. Jude for the

last seven years or this is the seventh year or the seventh iteration of it. You know, this is one

of those scenarios where I get confused with numbers, you know, because it's like, because it's like it's, it starts at
