And we are live. Welcome to episode 30208 of the survival podcast. It is a Thursday, December

of the 1st, 2022. And we have a special episode of live streaming podcasting today. I have

three members of the expert council on because I asked six and three of them weren't

pikers and showed up. We have with us today Nicole Soss, Tim Toolman Cook, and Nicholas

Burgesson. How you guys doing today? I think it would be better if there were two of

me. We are on lamb watch right now where one of the youth has told us she wants to have

a baby four days ago and it's typical. So it was 20 degrees here last night which seemed

like the time it would drop but it still hasn't. That's how it is. Minus 25 here this morning

and I got two inches three inches of snow. So we wrote since 430 clear in that but it's

done and it looks like we're clear for a while now. It's starting to get cold here and

I've got birds that are like I sit now. It's like no. No, I sit now. No, no. I sit on ceramic

eggs. Okay, you can do that. You can sit on the ceramic eggs. Day before yesterday we

were actually running the air conditioner. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's going up like crazy here.

I was a good husband and I ran out to the truck this morning for my wife and she had to pick the

kids up and started it and turned the heat and the defrost rock because it was all frozen up.

But two days ago it was in the 80s and I think tomorrow it's going to be 75. It's doing the

one roller coaster, man. With the climate. That's a lot worse, right? Bitcoin's price affects

the climate by making it fall up and down, radical. That's just because of proof of work. So

anyway, guys, thanks for being here today because I still have no editing capability.

I thought we could have an expert council show without me trying and failing to edit.

I wanted to start out with though. We'll be taking questions from the audience, of course.

But since it's almost the end of the year, another year's over, the new ones about to begin.
