2021. I'm one of your host Greg Miller alongside Carolyn Pettit. Hello, Carolyn.

0:20.2

Hey, Greg. How are you doing? I am great. How are you doing? Good. Thrilled to be here.

0:26.0

You know, I was saying, I think at a time like this, where maybe a little on edge about

1:41.8

But I don't expect that to be everyone's cup of tea. Like, I feel like, now I know hard feelings.

1:47.4

And yeah, like, you know, I have my own self-published writing page on at medium.com slash

1:55.3

at Carolyn Pettit, where folks can read, you know, a piece about like last of us two that I wrote
