Greetings to you and welcome to the program.

My name is Brant.

In case you're new to the show, I like to tell people this.

I'm on the autism spectrum.

I have Asperger's syndrome.

Maybe you know some people that have it.

When you know that, A, it can help you understand where I'm coming from quicker.

Also, I'll say things and I get people going, I cannot believe you said that.

And I don't realize that it was that big of a deal.

There's a bluntness that comes with this.

It actually has helped me in my career, I think.

And I point that out in case you get your own stuff.

Maybe it's not Asperger's or autism or something that you have to, you know,

grapple with, but it might be

something else. And it's weird how I do see how God has used my seeming weaknesses to be a

blessing to people at times. So just want to throw that out there because it may be the same for you.

In fact, I suspect it will be. It's that time of the year. There's always this

controversy. People don't like it when I point it out. I'm just speaking the truth. That

candy corn is terrible. And I know people will defend it. Okay, I like it. I like it.
