Hello, and welcome back to another day here at the Daryntree. Not just any day, though, it's

a special day for like nine distinct reasons. Number seven on that list joins us now.

Brett Erlich, welcome to the show. Lucky number seven, you know what, that glass is half full,

John. How are you feeling? I'm feeling good. I have a glass that is more than half full of coffee.

That's nice. How are you doing? I'm over it, to be honest. I'm so over it. I'm so done with every

The Biden administration has revealed some of the plans for over the next few years,

$5 billion to be spent doing electric vehicle chargers on highways. That seems like way too

little money, but that's good. There's good news out there, Brett. Yeah, it's awesome. I'm happy

about it. Do you know how many species of wolves there are, John? Seven. Three.

Three. And I think it's like the gray wolf, the white wolf. So we're doing that. And then the Ethiopian wolf.

Oh, hanging in there. Wait a little. You've got your own wolf. That's awesome. Yeah, and the white
