Happy round.

Hey! Hey! Happy Rant.

Rant. Hey, welcome to the Happy Rant Podcast.

I'm Ted Cluck joined as always by my good friends, Ronnie Martin and Barnabas Piper.

Boys, we took a little week's hiatus, man.

Something we haven't done really since the in the history of the program, Barnabas,

we've been radio pros and in hitting it hard each week, but we decided to take a week off.

And I don't know how you guys feel, but I feel refreshed.

There's a newness to our interaction.

There's a sense of discovery again.

Ted, you want to tell the audience where we all went on vacation while we took that week off together?

Yeah, we were all in Cancun.

So, you know, it was just a little retreat, a little planning weekend, because you know we had to do some stuff for us guys.

Yeah, a little me time.

Yeah, you have to pamper yourself once in a while in this business, which really will, it will

grind you down. I mean, and by that I mean the business of talking via Skype for about 45 minutes once a week.

Guys, I don't think people appreciate the prep time that goes into the show and so for us to go to

the Cancun for a week means that we were able

within the span of an hour on the beach prep the next 61 episodes.

Exactly, exactly.

Able to spend a lot of time on Wikipedia fact checking.

You know?
