Hey guys, thank you for tuning in to a special episode of part of the problem and a special day in time.

0:13.8

We have, I'm very excited for this episode.

We have returning to the show, Dan McKnight, who has really been doing heroic work over the last few years with

Defend the Guard. And there's really nobody who I could think of that would be better to talk to

0:26.9

right now in this moment. So Mr. McKnight, how are you, sir? Good, Dave. It's great to be here. It's

1:38.3

2025. But what's all of this been like from your perspective? No, absolutely. They had to get

1:43.1

the old scripts off and dust them off, right?

1:45.0
