Hey, welcome to the house. Happy Rant.

Rant.

Hey, welcome to the Happy Rant Podcast.

I am Ted Cluck joined, as always, in studio.

By my good friends, my partners in radio, Barnabas Piper, and Ron Martin.

Boys were all back together again.

Sorry for my, I don't know, insubordination last week, my inability to make it to the program I feel like I let the show

down you boy soldiered on without me and what was that what was that like was it was a bit aimless I would say your professional hosting is always greatly

appreciated Ron and I are good at some things and probably less good at that thing.

Well boys you know I take this seriously when I'm not on the show I'm in the film room

you know grinding tape doing the doing the work putting the hours in so.

It felt a little bit like one of those training camp

contract disputes where like one of the star players gets special treatment and

then the other star player feels left out like Ronnie, Ronnie gets to go on a two-week road trip and then Ted was feeling a little

okay I'm leaving camped a couple days yeah you just you just skipped

camp for a day and there's gonna come out pictures of you on like a boat with a my tie later or something.

Not to get ahead of ourselves and talk about Jerry Falwell or anything, but that's a good Vikings reference though.

A little, uh, yeah, I was thinking more Vikings reference though. A little, uh...

I was thinking more Vikings, vintage.

That was a different...

The Vikings boat and the Jerry Falwell boat very different than anything you would ever do on a boat.

Although I feel like it's very similar to what both of those parties could do on a boat
