Here, Birchia.

Well, color me surprised.

I'm surprised to see Kristen in here this morning because she was recovering from COVID. And I'm surprised to see Abby in here because I thought she'd be in the trunk of a car in Indianapolis. I feel like the theme of today's show is just going to be, she's alive. She's alive. She's alive. So both me and Kristen. Survive in advance. All right. First, let's start with you here.

Kristen?

Yes, I have been marked safe from this year's COVID variant.

So you guys probably heard late last week.

Like, I wasn't sounding the best.

And just to be smart on Friday, that was our Hagen-Daz day, where Hagen-Daz was donating 100% of the sales to Burt's Big Adventure if you went and just enjoyed some ice cream. Sidebar, that cookie dough ice cream is no joke. I'm telling you. So I was supposed to be at Hockendaws at noon on Friday to hang out with some Burt's Big Adventure kiddos. Real quick, Bert's Big Adventure, our nonprofit, we take kids with chronic and terminal illness to Disney.

And I was looking forward to it, but I also didn't feel well. And I was like, I'm going to

be responsible. We're hanging out with some kids that shouldn't be around like germs. So I took a

COVID test. And that boy, that bad boy wasn't just positive. It was positive. Super red. I mean,

it came so quick. I mean, it was like, yeah, there was no doubt whatsoever that my body was

just teeming with COVID germs. So now as one does, when Kristen informs everybody, she's got

COVID, I'm like, well, did I, was I really close

in proximity to her at all? We're in an airtight studio. All of us are here in an airtight studio.

And on Friday also, Kristen was literally, literally on top of my body breathing into my face.

Yeah, when I was putting on your fake chest here.

Don't think I didn't thought about that.

And so I immediately sent a text to the people I hung out with and I'm like, I am so sorry,

but you know, you've been exposed.

Just be mindful and be smart.

Friday wasn't feeling the greatest.
