than when my dad died. But to be fair, my dog didn't ask me for money over and over to play

bar kino. So I feel like that's a fair assessment

of how your emotions should be. And that's kind of be, that's going to be kind of like what this

podcast is about. We're going to be talking about all sorts of processes that we go through when
