| 0:09.6 | Definitely unintentional. |
| 0:11.0 | You know, before, before we even get into anything, I do want to say thank you, and I also |
| 0:16.7 | want to say sorry, okay? |
| 0:19.0 | Okay. |
| 0:19.3 | Okay. |
| 0:19.7 | I want to say thank you to everybody who has reached out in concern about our absence. |
| 0:25.6 | No, thank you, because I received some death threats. |
| 0:27.6 | I received a lot of death threats. |
| 0:29.6 | I received a lot of support. |
| 0:31.6 | I received a lot of everything. |
| 0:33.6 | And I didn't, you know, and this is actually where the sorry comes in, |
| 0:35.6 | because I'm really, I'm beyond thankful that everybody was so concerned. I honestly, like, it's one of those things. And this is I know, fuck, I'm a little toxic. Naturally. I think we all are just to a certain extent. |
| 0:48.1 | But everybody don't want to stand on it. Everybody don't want to admit it. Okay. Okay. And this hiatus, this quick break that we took, exposed me to me. Okay. You found out about yourself.

| 1:30.6 | But yeah, I just want to say thank you for everybody who is concerned. |
| 1:27.7 | Everybody was like, yo, where's the pod?

Like, there are certain people who support us every single week, no matter what. Yeah, no, I know. |
| 1:44.4 | They comment. |
| 1:44.9 | They retweet. |
| 1:45.7 | Like, I wish I could remember their little screen name. Because you got to think, too, like whenever you have a favorite podcast, that's your escape from reality. Absolutely.
