Hi everyone. This is Brent Billings, and I just want to acknowledge the awkwardness of releasing an

episode following Josh's death. This is our first regular episode, and it feels weird to just

put that out there without any sort of comment.

As you all know, we record pretty far in advance.

So this was all done long before.

And there are multiple episodes featuring Josh that are yet to come.

And Sophia, his wife, has encouraged us to use those. I don't know if excited is the right word, but we are definitely going to share those with you. You're not

done hearing from Josh, which is kind of kind of strange, but also exciting. I don't uh but our our period of sitting shiva is over

our period of our official period of morning continuous obviously the morning will go on for

a long time but um we wanted to get our voices out there so i actually have reed with me

at this moment. And

Reed's going to probably share a few thoughts here. Just briefly, you're going to hear from

Marty and L. next week. And then we'll go on from there. And session 10 is probably going to

include a lot of thoughts about Josh,

probably some dedicated episodes.

We don't know exactly what that looks like yet,

but we just wanted to get our voices out there and give everyone a chance to say

at least a few words for now as we kind of slowly move back into a period of releasing regular-ish episodes.

Like, nothing feels regular.

It's weird.

I don't know.

What do you think, Reed?
