I'm going to throw in this text at the beginning just because, uh, well, Jack, I'm listening

I'm 48-year-old father of five.

We have a nine-year-old with similar behavior.

You're thinking, well, wait a minute.

I'm supposed to think of that.

I make jokes about the news for a living.

Why did I come up with that idea?

Anyway.
