Hello and thank you so much for joining us once again.

It is the Knightley Pleasures podcast.

I am your host and the author of The Peace you're going to hear today, The Grey Knight.

You can call me, Daddy, you can call me Jack, you can call me what you want. Just keep on coming back. How you doing? So, little me a copa.

Little Mia Copa. First podcast of the year, which would be last year, was a little bit sloppy of me.

I'm not beating myself up about it at all.

I just, you know, heard.

Some of you were like, a little intense after like,

it was just like Christmas, Christmas, Christmas,

lovey-dovey relationship, and then midnight and New Year hit,

and it's just like, I'm going to kill you. It's like, you know,

fair, fair.

I can wait until February next year.

In all fairness,

wanting to just absolutely

kill and murder and destroy

everyone that you've ever loved and cared

for and were near in December,

I think is a natural instinct for the North American. I think that's fair. We've earned it.

You know? We just went through a gauntlet of 31 days of bullshit. And if you're an American,

the play starts a little bit early.

It starts the Wednesday before the last Thursday of November, and it just goes straight through.
