All right. I'm recording from what the hell is this Sonoma

0:03.3

Sequoia there we go Sequoia. I've been doing that for a little while now.

0:07.3

Yeah is it is it okay like I just installed it today like yeah I've upgraded on day one

0:11.7

So I've done all the episodes since then.

0:13.6

I've heard absolutely nothing about it from anybody, so I guess it's fine?

0:17.3

No news is good news.

0:18.3

Although you're going to hear more about it in the show today.
