Today's episode has been weighing a bit on me. It's kind of driving me a little insane

because I want it to be perfect because it's all about Stevie. I'm sure everyone listening

to this episode currently knows of Stevie or was a fan of Stevie. If you don't know Stevie,

please look her up before you listen to this episode because it's all about her and I want you to have some context, even though I'm assuming you do know who she is.

She was awesome, amazing, funny, charismatic.

And I don't want to get into too many cliche words, but they all are good for her because she was all those amazing things.

We're 48 episodes into this podcast, and only 11 of these shows were done with Stevie, yet it still

feels like it's our podcast. And the fact that she's not here still feels so surreal. I have so many moments where it just

hits me like a ton of bricks that this is reality. And I keep realizing that reality over and over

and over. And this has been going on since July. And those moments when it hits you don't feel any less real than,

or any less intense than they did when this all first happened. So it makes healing very difficult.

But it's actually been a year exactly, I would say a year and a couple of days, maybe,

give or take, since we taped our first episode, and that hit me really hard.

And I really just, I'm at a loss for words about it in general.

But I have someone here to help me with words today on this episode.

I have very funny comedian and the executive producer of Stevie TV,

Dan Levy, who knew Stevie very well, and he shares his experiences that he had with her and

this awesome girl that him and I were both lucky enough to work with. So please keep listening.

And of course, before I get to to that I feel bad doing any sort of

Patreon thing right now but I just have to say thank you to everyone new on Patreon all the new

heroes I will call you and now you're my children anyone who comes over to Patreon is my child

and someone who was birthed from my loins. So I have to say thank you to Angela,
