Hello and welcome back to True Crime Guys podcast. I'm your host Michael and Andy's back. I am back, Michael.

Welcome. I see you brought a toothpick. I do have a toothpick in my mouth. I want to sound sassy while I came back.

You took three weeks off so you can reinvent yourself? I do. I have a whole new character.

It's a whole new character thing now, Michael.

I don't know.

I don't know if I like it.

Maybe it'll grow on me.

No, I'm just trying to quit smoking a little bit, so it's one of those little, uh, oral fixation habits trying to, get better ones. It's a distraction. Yeah. Right. It's better than chewing gum on the mic the whole time just hearing.

Oh, God, so much better.

So, yeah.

Yeah, it's a terrible podcasting habit.

So I won't be doing...

Like eating, like, corn chips.

I won't do that the whole time just hearing. Oh God, so much better. So yeah. Yeah, it's a terrible

podcasting habit. So I won't be doing, like eating like corn chips. I won't do that the whole time. I'll just occasionally put this in the corner of my mouth and suck on it gently. Oh, God. Great, that's going to be great for me to stare across the table at this entire time. You'll know when I do it. He'll just get real quiet for a second. hopefully I can cut it out in post

oh no I'll do it. He'll get real quiet for a second.

Hopefully I can cut it out and post. Oh, no, I'll do it right in the middle of your monologues.
