Hey guys welcome to episode number 450 of the industrial strength show.

I am not sure if you could hear it in my voice yet. I actually got the

microphone cranked up a little bit. I got the the microphone cranked up a little bit I got the volume up so I don't have to talk as loud as I normally talk I'm I'm a naturally loud talker, but I'm I'm consciously trying to keep my volume down to preserve my voice for as long as I can because I don't know if I'm at the tail end of warding off sickness or maybe at the

beginning of possibly getting sick although I'm going to do everything in my power to have

Ava I felt so bad because she couldn't breathe at all.

I think I've mentioned it on the podcast before.

It's like a netty pot on steroids basically but one night I was helping

Ava use that machine I was kind of holding it for and you know not to be disgusting but the thing like

sucks all the boogers out of the nose and you know I'm I don't really
