Hey everybody. Welcome to the McCrack Podcast from J.J. H. Sexton. I'm here with Nick

Houseman. A quick bit of house cleaning before we get started for our Patreon subscribers. We're going to

be doing a live taping of our bonus weekend or episode on Thursday, July 28th. That'll be at 7 p.m. Eastern. If you haven't come to one of these things in the past, you absolutely should. I would go so far, Nick, as to say, there are a good time. A very good time, for sure. Don't sell yourself short. I think they're a great time. Absolutely. I think they are. So that is Thursday, July 28th, 7 p.m. Eastern, and we're going to be recording our

weekender bonus episode.

And all you have to do is go over to patreon.com slash smunkreg podcast.

Speaking of good times, I couldn't make this a good segue.

We must press on.

There was no way to go ahead and go from the joyousness of a live show to what we now

have to talk about.

My apologies, I try.

The show must go on, Jared.

I believe it's the special.

The show must go on.

Unfortunately, we have to cover an event that as soon as I heard it was coming and something

that I've been looking at for the past few months.

You know, as we've been having this gas crisis, there have been all kinds of reports and

stories and leaks that President Joe Biden was desperately searching for some relief for gas prices, which they're all better now.

Yeah, a lot of decline day every day for a long time now.

I've been declining for many, many days now.

But it ended up coming out that at some point we're probably looking at a Joe

Biden trip to Saudi Arabia. I just want to remind everybody that as Joe Biden was running for

the nomination for president of the United States back in 2020, and I know my memory isn't the best, your memory isn't the best.
