Welcome back to L'Opriori podcast. I'm your host, Danny Lopriori, and everyone's going to be like, oh, God, where's Michael? I asked them to not be on this one, okay? We haven't been back for a while, so I want to answer some of your questions. First question is, is the podcast done forever? No, it's not. Is it on hiatus a little bit? Yeah, it is. And I'll give you the reason why. It being men's mental health awareness month, I just need to tell you guys, over the last month, I've been a little burnt out

just going through some stuff and working on my physical health and my mental health.

And I hope you guys can understand that. If you guys want to stick around, more than happy to

have you. If you can't't then that's up to you

i don't know i'm never going to like apologize for like wanting to make sure my mental health

and physical health is good um so yeah just being honest with you guys uh as you guys know i've had

my mental health struggles in the past and things that I deal with and I'm just dealing with them.

And the biggest thing for me is I did not want to come on this platform and on this show and pretend to be like, all right when I wasn't all right.

You know what I mean? And I don't want anyone to like feel bad for me, so please don't.

I'm in a good place.

And just, like, working on myself and taking care of myself.

And other than that, you know, I've given so much of myself to this internet shit.

And I just needed to get away from it for a while.

Too much screen time, too much time spent on, like, things that weren't important.

And I've been doing that for years now, to be honest with you.

And it's taken a toll on my body.

And I'm 35.

I'm not getting any younger. I need to just take toll on my body. And I'm 35. I'm not getting any younger.

I need to just take care of my body and my soul and my mind.

And I'm happy right now, you know.

But I have to fight to be happy.

I don't want to, like, fight to be happy.
