Hey hey hey what you doing? No, we can't do that why not?

Bantam is that it counts as banter?

counts as banter.

Here's what I have to say about that.

No, no, no, we got to move on to our subject.

So today we're going to be talking to me tell you this right now.

There's a handful of people that say they're giving up a podcast or they don't like it, they hate it,

because of all the banter.

Okay, so I'm just going to be really straight with you.

I'm going to talk to you like, these are these are mostly men that I all the ones that I'm thinking of are men so let me just say this

it's not your podcast and it's actually it's our podcast. So we're actually going to do the kind of stuff that we want to do.

This is why we're doing this podcast. We wanted a podcast to be a certain way and we didn't find one out there so we're doing this.

Who gave us this?

That came from two of our newest members at the church.

Jimmy is holding up a bottle of bourbon.

Somebody gave, one of the members of the church gave us a bottle of bourbon.

It's really good. I mean, like, like I said, it's, uh, on the

front end when you first have that first sip, it's a little harsh. It's a little harsh. But it's a little harsh but it's really kind of it's

like a syrupy but it's sweet like a honey and then a vanilla on the end and I just

went for a second sip yeah so it's harsh I was in the middle of my thing and you started talking about that.
