| 0:55.0 | I try, one of the things that I tried to do in my life is not have beef with six year olds, but I'm not always successful. Welcome to our mini pod. Y'all, welcome home. This is your attention, man. Y'all supposed to say welcome home. Welcome home. Jesus. I got to help you all. Y'all just saw. We just had a special cameo from Sadie Ellen Sellers and she is going to be seven in January along with her brother. You may hear them in the background because we out of school on this Thanksgiving week, but we are enjoying every bit of it. And shout out to the Nutcracker. I hope some of y'all are going to get a chance to see friends and family in special shows. But Angela had a unique you wanted to talk about. So I'm going to let you bring it in because |
| 0:59.9 | you described it so well. So all of us have siblings. And I think I at least have a ton of cousins |
