Hey everyone, Vancouver Radio, episode number 330. Oh my God, is it that time?

Wow, anyway, I've been really busy deleting a lot more of the old podcast why because information has changed how I feel about things has changed so if you do ever look back that's why anyway today is a quick one why am am I being quiet? Because I'm recording this really early on a Sunday morning and I don't want to wake up the house.

Anyway, Dave Kottrell, who's been on this show before, a legend, he's written a beautiful poem about

sold, but most the best practices are free and are old. See the secret to health doesn't
