La-da-da-da-la-da-la-ha-da-ha-ha-ha-oh-ho-ho-ho-oh-oh-oh-ah-ha Hello, ha, blah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Wow, come back.

Hello, friends.

Greg Cogel here, and it's always fun when you're able to call in, and we can converse and interact, and there's a back and forth and a to and fro.

And that's my favorite way of having conversations with you.

Sometimes it's not possible for one reason or another.

Often you'd like to call me, and you can't thread the needle time-wise

when I'm on live from, what is it, four until six on Tuesday afternoon's Los Angeles time.

You can't wait in the queue or whatever, but we have another alternative for you, and we're going to benefit from that

alternative today, and we're going to take our open mic calls here. We have a lot of them,

and some of you have already called in and wonder, when am I going to get to you? Well, little by

little, we're working through the notes. If you want to participate in the

open mic, that is, if you want to leave a verbal, comment question, interactive element with me

so that I could respond to it, just go to our homepage at sDR.org, and under podcasts,

where it says live podcast, you'll see the feature for the

open mic, and then you can just record your question there, and we'll put you in the queue,

and hopefully eventually get to you. Now, once in a while, there is a question that I'm just not well-suited to answer.

And I don't want to get on, hear your question and say, well, I don't know nothing about that,

so let's move on to the next one. Occasionally, we don't get to one for that reason,

but most of the time I'll have something to say, okay? And even if I don't know anything

about it, I often will still have an opinion, and I'll share that with you. But we're going to

do that today. And incidentally, if you want to call during the live show, of course, you can always do that by dialing 855-243-9-975.
