by as always, Jeff Blair. Jeff, how are you?

Well, you know, I was a little bit confused about how I was going to approach today's show. And I ended

up coming up with a magnificent solution, Scott. So I came up with a set of flashcards

with a whole bunch of sort of observations, stock observations that I can just drop in at any time or any place when I don't have something to say that's intelligent at all.

And, you know, this way I can just generate podcasts endlessly in my sleep, in fact.

That sounds like an interesting idea.

I'm not sure if the quality might suffer.

We'll have to wait and see.
