In other news some jackass named Casey just started recording two and a half minutes ago

So I'm gonna leave you a nice edit so in case you want to cut all that I know I know I know

No, your punishment is we're gonna have to use the low quality zoom version for your for your opening banter

That is also completely acceptable no joke

But do you want me to leave you like a nice let's start with follow up right now?

Do you need to how do you need to have a checklist case? I do I need

I don't know Merlin have a checklist and maybe you need a checklist

It's been a long time and the problem is I was all out of sorts today and I'm the one who caused us to come to come to do this today

And then I felt like I was late to get to our zoom call

It's entirely my fault like I'm not trying to blame anyone but me

But I was all out of sorts. I didn't hit record and I'm used to call recorder having my back on this one

And because we switched to zoom and because you know we were all eventually going to be on M1 max except maybe John

It wasn't there to save me

It's all my fault, but I feel dumb anyway, so you don't want to go to edit you're just gonna use the crap copy

That's totally fine. It's entirely my fault. I do not blame you at all, but I'll leave you a nice you know intro if you want it

You'll find out okay, if I use the crap copy it punishes you

But it also punishes me because people will first think that I just suck at audio quality

Well, you can also leave all this in if you would like people don't even notice it'll be short enough

It'll say like oh sound a weird in the beginning but then it sounded normal. It'll be fine. I'm gonna do this for me

And you're going to ignore it and that's fine, but it will make me feel slightly better about my ineptitude

So I need you to shut the hell up for like 10 seconds. Are you recording an intro?

You're never gonna be able to do it naturally. It's gonna sound awkward
