This is an IHeart podcast. All right, guys, we're coming at you, um, virtually live, like damn near live from Tanzania and Africa and if you listen to

the show you heard me complain about when we have to sit on episodes for various stupid reasons

that I can't explain and then release them later these were just releasing as they happen as

we're in in Africa hunting with Morgan Potter fromin hurt safaris and so we're going to do
