Okay, welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the We're Having a Good Time podcast.

My name is Dusty Slay. I'm your host, and I'm yet again alone in the studio.

Very exciting, though.

We're having a great day.

Daisy's off with Hannah at the play park, having some fun, vacuum in the car, playing in the park.

Sam's sleeping or in another room, awake,

hearing me talk, wondering what I'm doing and why is he in his crib while I'm in here just talking away. I'm also wearing some headphones. I don't normally wear headphones when I do this podcast,

but last week there was a couple of issues with the sound. People said there was some screeching

and some wild noises. So I wanted to make sure that if it happened again, then I heard it.

But I did replace the mic

cables. So I got some fresh mic cables in here. Sounds good so far in my ears, although I'm not

used to wearing the headphones. I do wear them on Nate Land, but I don't like it. I don't

like wearing headphones. I like to just free flow it out here. But you know what?

People wear headphones on podcasts for a reason. And I guess this is the reason. So you can hear

if things go wrong. But as it stands right now, I'm just hearing myself talk in the earphones pretty loud.

And sometimes when I can hear myself talk, I weirdly get into the sound of my own voice.

My voice doesn't sound the same to me when I'm just talking as it does when I'm hearing it

through headphones.

And so I get into it. I don't know why I get

into it. I feel like it's happened over time. The first time you ever hear yourself talk on a

recording, you go, oh gosh, is that how I talk? Is that how the world is hearing me? And when I hear clips of myself in my 20s, I have, I used to

carry a video camera around with me in my 20s. There was no iPhones in my early 20s.
