Hey, Boschie. Hey, Sufi. How are you? I'm good. I'm really excited because this weekend, as we record this, I'm going to fly home on Saturday night so I can see Mom for Mother's Day on Sunday. Huh. What? Nothing. I just, I don't, uh, I don't know why you sort of put all this

effort into going to see mom. What? Yeah, I don't know. I just think she, you know,

she can just be a lot. I don't know that that's true. I think she's great and it's

Mother's Day, so I want to see her. I don't know. I mean, that's, maybe that's more of a you thing.

No, I, this is so weird, Sufi. Like, I, this doesn't even sound like you. Well, that's because it's

not me, Pashi.

What do you mean?

This is, I wasn't able to do an intro, so you're just pretending to be me and trying to make people think that I'm a terrible person.

Well, that's what you get when you don't show up to do an intro, and I have to do one alone,

is I can make you look like, yeah, like just a bad, bad, terrible person, which of course,

I know you're not.

Hey, everybody, it's just Pashi here because Sufi couldn't make it.

He's a very busy person.

And actually, as we speak, my parents are visiting with him, and he will be with our mother for the beginning of Mother's Day.

And then my mom and dad, our mom and dad, are going to drive up to New Hampshire, and I will be there to greet them.

So I'm sure we will have some great stories to share with you about these family trips in our next intro.

And on today's show, we have a mother as well.

Annalie Ashford, just a fabulous actress known on Broadway and Beyond.

She is in the new series Happy Face, and she is a delight.

And please enjoy.

And Sufi will be back with me.

I hope next time we record one of these.
