Hey, I'm Steph. I'm Alex. And this is not today. And we're live. Hello. How are you?

And we're live.

Hello.

And we're live.

Hello. How are you?

I'm good. How are you?

I'm great.

Good.

Well, before we jump into this week's story, we do have a bit of an announcement, don't we do I feel like we need to kind of just rip this off like a bandaid yeah a little bit a little bit so

Alex has decided he's going to be stepping back from the podcast. Do you want to talk about that a little bit?

Yeah, it's not anything other than it's been too much of a time commitment and I have a lot coming up for work that I just don't think that I'm going to be able to do both very well and yeah I think I just need to step away, but I am really appreciative of all the positive support.

We've gotten over the past two and a half years people that leave comments that say I'm funny or something.

Yeah, totally.

I mean, I have been the star of the show, but exactly.

Our fans are really your fans.

Exactly.

And it's my podcast.

Of course. So, right. Anyway, I hope you stay around for stuff. Yeah.

And if you don't, I might find you. Oh, oh, threatening. Yeah, no, let's be so clear, I am not going anywhere.

I will still be here telling you all stories just as I've always done and it is

possible that Alex may be back when he can, but as of now I am your host

with the most. And I love that. Sometimes podcasts need to shift gears a little bit to be able to transform and grow.
