Hey, everyone, this is Matt. Before we get into this week's episode, I wanted to share a quick

update. Next week's episode of The Last Laugh will be the final episode of this show. I want to thank

everyone listening, whether it's your first time tuning in or you've been here since 2019. So yes,

laugh after six and a half years. So you are one of our final guests on the show. And I've wanted to have you on for so long, so I'm so glad that we're doing it now. God, talk about the last, last laugh. Yeah, exactly. Oh, I'm glad to be your last laugh. Yeah, thank you.
