Hello and welcome to the J Train Podcasts.

This is J Train Jarefree. Come here live from the West Village.

You've been handling here every Monday with your emails or stories, your questions I say every episode. Let me say it again.

Thank you. Thank you for being a listener. Thank you for telling a friend, a coworker, a brother, a sister, a mama, a papa, anyone.

We'll take them all. We want more listeners for this fantastic show because we want more people like you.

That's right. You put your brand on the shelf every Monday. You let my guests and I take the wheel, make you feel good, make it so you don't feel it all.

That's the point of a podcast is that I'll put my thoughts off to later. Let me have my co-hosts and I talk about other people's problems.

If you have a problem that you want answered here in the podcast, send it in J Train Podcasts.
