All right, he had a look at everyone and welcome to it is the Derek and her podcast for the 26th of August, 2022. Happy Friday to you, glorious.

Glorious Friday. Thank you for downloading, sharing, telling a friend, all that good stuff. I'm back, baby. So we're back to normal regular order, if you're not.

Thank you for sticking through that and tolerating that and coming back and all of that stuff. You can go to patreon.com slash Derek Hunter podcast. You can see 30 photographs from the non-COVID part of the time off over there.

30 is the limit there. I didn't put them up at what you call it at Derek Hunter dot that locals dot com because they have a limit of 10 pictures.

30 limb. I was already putting up more than than 30 and I had to get rid of some and then I thought about having a picture again and get rid of more, get rid of 20 more, get rid of two thirds of it.

And I was like, you know what? And just to hell with it, they're all open to the public at patreon.com slash Derek Hunter podcast. So you don't have to be a member to, to go and see them beautiful pictures, Detroit, Mac and Ireland, the Mac and all bridge.

Highly recommend you go check it out because it costs you nothing and it got pictures of my kids in there, which is pretty cute.

So do that. And then while you're there, that's when you want to sign up for the weekend and review, which will be up at midnight.

And all that good stuff and all the other bonus materials enter the contest to win the signed autographed books blah, blah, blah.

All right. That's enough. Let's get, I'm rearing to go. Let's get going.

There is, of course, a lot going on in the world of another $300 billion plus just set on fire yesterday by our senile president of the United States yesterday.

We'll get to that in a second, but I've gotten a lot of messages, a lot of emails and everything over the time of my absence and my what have you, my illness, the families illness.

So I want to give you an update as best I know it now as quickly as possible today.

My sister is going in for a lumpectomy to thankfully they caught her breast cancer exceedingly early.

And if there is such a thing, it is the, the least deadly type of breast cancer.

So they caught it when it was the size of half a grain of rice.

She's going in to have that removed in some lymph nodes removed, I think, for testing or something like that.

She came up to see us at my dad's, but never actually, I never actually saw her.

I was the only one sick at the time. I never actually saw her because I had tried to take a nap when she got there.

And then I came out and immediately like went to bed and was never within 20 feet of her.

And was never in the same, never out for more than, I don't know, 30 seconds going from one bedroom to the other.

So far, luckily, thankfully she's tested negative and if you have her procedure today, that's good.
