And now move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.

Welcome to move the sticks. I'm Bucky Brooks and today, unfortunately, I'm flying solo,

0:12.2

but we will hear from my partner, Daniel Jeremiah a little later.

0:16.5

He is going to join the Danny Atomlison and they're going to have an interview with

Kenan Allen that you hear later in the pod. But I am going to talk about this Buddha Baker
