Hello, bienvenito.

Welcome one and all to a brand spanking new episode, fresh out the kitchen. We've been cooking in la Cucina, a delicious. Welcome. I'm your flaming hot and spicy, seasonally depressed, white wine drinking, tuck your finger licking, ice coffee sipping, mushroom microdosing, hot mess of a host, Lorenzovon, and I am so happy to be here with you today.

There is no place I'd rather be than right here in this moment

in our cult, our safe space, our coven. I hope you're having a beautiful day and a great

week so far and you're feeling good, but if you are struggling right now with your mental health,

Your toes are in the sand.

You're sipping a freaking pina colada.

A 10 is feeling like you're on top of the world.

Where are you on that low life scale right now?

For me personally, I'm going to rate my mental health a solid 7.5 out of 10.

I'm feeling pretty good. Does anyone else feel like the month of June just flew by and I can't believe we're already heading into July? I blinked and realized,

oh shit, it's June 26th. My birthday is coming up in just a few days. My birthday is June 30th. It

falls on a Monday this year.

Shout out to all of my fellow cancer crabs. My emotional, sensitive, deeply empathetic, nurturing,
