And I'm your host Bread Merriman to to my right is nobody

an empty, an empty chair.

An empty chair, doing the show solo.

Just kidding, in front of me on a screen from parts unknown which is very much just

central to south central Wisconsin that's K.J. Ellis KJ how are you?

Fantastic Brett. Thank you for having me back here on

You know what many are saying is the highest quality

Variety show here on the network and maybe just my favorite personal show

overall. Thank you. I'll tell you what you're my favorite non in office contributor to the network.

How about that?

Means a lot of the Midwest representative for sure.

What's been going on since the last time we spoke on this

year a podcast with you, K-J. We were talking a little bit beforehand there's there's a new desk

involved there's there's a new desk involved there's there may be new floors what's

going on in the life of K.J. Ellis recently. Really it's just

resettling part two we moved to Madison two years ago. We've done the show since then but we recently purchased a house here in the area and little by little trying to avoid drinking bleach one DIY project at a time.

It's been quite entertaining but overall overall any close calls on the DIY front

Yeah, so as we finish the floors like the carton the house is about 20 years old and the thing that will keep me in the Midwest for as long as I possibly can be here is the fact that I have a basement.

You and Randy both understand that that is not a small thing. I will

shovel driveways and sidewalks many more times than I will mow a lawn in the south but you can pry a fantastic

finished basement from my cold dead hands.

Oh KJ what a isn't that a fun realization?
