Hi everybody, welcome back to the Be There In 5 Podcast. I'm Kate Kennedy, your host. You

0:11.0

know when you wake up kind of late and call into something for work and you realize you

0:15.2

haven't used your voice yet and you sound really deep and groggy and you're like, wait,

0:20.5

am I crazy, it's actually cool? Or is it obvious that I just woke up and I'm a grown-ass

0:27.2

adult and it is 1030. Hard to say, hard to say. That's all I feel right now with my voice.

0:32.8

But I'm very lucky, I'm at my sisters. I've actually never been to her place because of

the COVID of it all. It's cozy as hell. She decorates for fall. I counted 26 pumpkins. I think

1:28.2

like my home a living nightmare. If you want to assemble, lightly assemble a nice array of

1:34.3

mixed texture color and size gourds by all means. You do you, Janet. But if you're going to send

1:40.1

me email forwards about the cabal and like Bill Gates and the gang feasting off of children,

1:46.3

yet you essentially were shipping the sanders and sisters with your home goods. Stay

1:50.6

cool. Like, need I remind you? Oh, when if Fred Sanders does this go around town and saying like,

1:54.7

I smell children and like try to eat them. Like on what planet do you want anything close to a
