Greetings to you. I am Brand. Sherry's here, too. Just got a note from Andrew. He said it took me a little while. At first, I did not like your show. He said, he specifically pointed out something about Sherry. Okay. Go ahead. Say it. He said. He's not alone. There's many, many Andrews out there, and I get it.

He said it took a while to get used to your laugh.

Yes, I get that. We hear that from people.

Like, because Cherries got this awesome laugh.

That's wonderful.

It's big and it's loud and I understand.

At first, people are jarred.

They find me jarring and they find you jarring.

And then hopefully over time, time though it smooths out and you're like

oh okay feels like friends so that's the goal thank you Andrew we're glad you fought past it we're glad

you're here man so there's this thing in the bible where it says to don't grow tired of doing good

work like don't get discouraged don't't abandon it. That is a big

issue because we all get discouraged with stuff. And don't over spiritualize that too to just be like,

okay, good works. Like if I go out and feed the hungry all over the world. Like, how about just your

job? Like, it's easy to get discouraged. It is.

There's people gossiping.

There's people acting like it's the worst thing that ever happened.

There's, like, just, there's all that sort of stuff that discourages you.

There's other things that happen that are legitimate that maybe could be discouraging.
