Welcome to Country Squire Radio. I'm Bo. And I'm John David. Jay to E. Hey, Bo. Good evening, man. Man, good evening to you, sir. How you doing? I'm doing great. Happy Easter to you. Happy Easter to you, sir. Yeah, we're recording a day early, as our loyal live listeners know, we normally record on Monday. But you've got somewhere to be, I think, tomorrow. and so we're, we're doing a day early, which happens to be Easter. Yeah, absolutely. You know, this, and we're actually doing it. We'll just pull the curtain completely back. We're actually doing it since it was kind of a lot, not necessarily last minute, but since it kind of fell in kind of an off date, we're actually doing it here at Potastery Studios. That's right.

That's right.

You're looking in, for those of us joining us on the live show, rather than seeing the beauty and the, the legacy. Elegance and charm. Exactly. Of ye old pipe shop. Yeah. Instead, you get ye newish. Recording studio. Podcast studio. Yeah. And with these beautiful burlap coffee bags that I'm assuming are up on the wall to help with the sound.

Is that right?

Yeah, they're here to help with the sound. But I like to feel as though the caffeine that is in those bags is seeping through the air and into us even as we speak. That's the goal. I think it kind of goes the other way. I don't think Bo gets like caffeinated. I think the caffeine gets,

You just kind of getting to know folks.

And he was a visitor to church, You know, and a bunch of, a bunch of other church, you know, folks.

He was just kind of getting to know folks.

And he was a visitor to church, you know, that kind of thing.

And so I just wanted to talk to folks. And, you know, people were kind to him and welcoming him and all that. And I tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around. And, Bo, the look of abject horror in his face when he saw his drug dealer at the church with him.
