Yo what up I'm to hear more I'm Patrick Cloud and this is another episode of damn internet you

scary man happy new year kind I, and this is the last year, last day of 2020.

And man, it's been very different for everybody.

It's been a hell of a ride man.

It's been a hell of a ride.

It's so funny because I my patron they just got the the latest episode of Life Lessons from the Unexpected and it's the one with Meg and her topic was you are enough and it's so crazy that it just happened to fall where it did because I know for this year a lot of people were struggling hell I was struggling you were struggling we all were kind of figuring out what's going on,

what we're gonna do. And it was just a good way to close out the year because man, this was

this was rough. And you know, whenever we talk about 2020, I always want to be mindful of all of the people who, you know, had actually dealt with the disease itself, you know, like a lot of I see a lot of people like yeah, you know, sometimes us like yeah, 20, 20 for me has generally been like pretty dope and stuff like that.

So like within a month, both my sources of income just went away and I was just like,

what month was that? Was that was that this year yeah that was April

yeah from from mid March to April mid April that's when everything just like just feel apart.

And that's when I was like, you guys were still planning on touring

like earlier this year?

It didn't really shut down to.

Yeah, we started touring in in January and we did February and then we did the first weekend of March. That was my birthday weekend. We did Kansas City on Friday and Saturday in St Louis. We did two shows on Sunday and then we were supposed to have the following week off and then we were supposed to take back off the weekend after that.

But that's when the shutdown happened, I want to say on like the 13th or something like that.

And then we canceled the following weekend and we canceled the following weekend and then
