0:26.5	Sima live.
0:27.6	We ain't done one out here in a while.
0:29.1	Mm-mm.
0:29.4	I'm over here watching all my levels, making sure everything's hooked up right.
0:33.1	Yeah, no feedback, no issues.
0:35.7	I get comments all the time about, man, I love listening to Fistful of Dirt because the audio's good. Aw. Doesn't go up and down, up and down, up and down. You know how that is.

And I'm like, man, I don't ever want to be that podcast that people can't play in their truck or their tractor. I'll let you borrow my Tetris if you need to get. It'll boost that sound for you.

1:46.2	Right.
1:46.7	Next Sunday, I think.
1:47.9	So I did a post.
1:50.0	I just went through and started grabbing photos.
1:52.2	I didn't really grab buddies all in my phone.
1:55.1	I didn't necessarily have a picture of them with their kids, but I was just throwing up pictures of dads, people I knew who were dads, and said,
