Welcome to the Battery Podcast. My name is Aaron McManus and I'm here with my dad Earl and Rafael McManus.

It's so good to be here with you today. It's so good to be here. I decided today I'm going to try to match your energy.

Please please don't do that because I watch the podcast sometimes and I realize how much energy you bring and I'm like a sleepy river.

You are kind of you're like a lazy river. You got your inner tube you got your snacks and you're just kicking back letting you go in circles.

So I don't want I don't want to be lazy river. I want to be white water.

I think I'm just like a waterfall fire hydrant always going out there. I think you're fire hydrant fire hydrant. You're born in the city.

Okay, so we have some things to talk about. I mean, where do you want to go to and to first because I could go personal.

We could go political. We could go faith talk about God, which which one do you want to go to first?

Okay, I'm going to do a global survey. Brooke, where should we start?

Faith. I'm going to start with personal because I have some things I want to get off my chest.

All right. So in the last month, I feel like I've been going through it. I get hit in my car, cars in the shop for six weeks.

Then I borrowed my mom's car. I need good son. You parked it the really really I parked it so far away from my friend's house on a quiet street.

And some kid nails only my car pops the wheel off the axle cars total. I think it's.

But you heard the car accident without even realizing a block away. I was with Eric in his back patio and we hear this.

Can I hit the table? You said I couldn't. All right. Go ahead.

There's louts like so much lighter than that. Eric goes.

By the way, when he says Eric, he means Eric Roy, who's one of our good friends family.

And he goes, huh, wouldn't that be funny? If like, that was your car. And I said, yes, except for I parked in the neighborhood.

Not on the on he lives a kind of on a major street corner. I parked in the neighborhood. I went out of my way.

I go when I'm leaving 30 minutes later. This is around midnight. I walk around the corner and all I see is the car like our car, your car off the curb onto the curb.

Wheel popped off. Axle dropped the whole front care like no damage except like the wheel like rim area like the axle was going in one direction and the car was going in the other direction.

The neighbor thought I was a drunk driver. Yeah. And so I'm sitting there and call Eric and I'm like, no one's going to believe I wasn't in this car.
