All right, for this episode of Guest Splending, I am delighted to be joined by one Deacon Charlie Echeveri. Thanks so much for joining. Thank you for having me, Father. What a privilege. Hey, I am pumped. We got to know each other. I suppose we should begin the episode with a kind of homage by extolling the virtues of the man who brought us together, one Ryan Bethay.

Because you know that he's gonna listen to this episode

to determine whether or not we mention him.

So we should just, we should try to do it

as often as we possibly can.

I think it's a very good course of action.

And as I told you earlier, I actually,

the last call I had before joining you here

in your studio was with Ryan. And I described it as kind of like

the way that batters warm up for the plate. They get that super heavy, you know, heavy rings on the

bat. So I'm fully primed for this podcast by virtue of our mutual friend Ryan. Yeah, we were

introduced to one another through one of

Ryan's various video projects. I know that you did a, well, I probably can't talk about it,

but you've done something with him recently that I'm sure we'll be seeing the light of day very

soon. And I had a chance to be on set and eavesdropping that. And yeah, Ryan's been certainly a great friend to me for years,

and I'm very happy to be able to continue to watch his kind of spiritual journey evolve.

And for those folks who don't know, we're speaking about Ryan Bethay,

who's the creator and co-host of the big show called The Exorcist Files.
