Welcome everybody to Battle Ground Live. We are almost done with the first full week of doing the live show at 5 p.m. I'm super excited about it. By the way, couldn't do this without you.

So crazy things going on in Fort Parnell. The girls, Melanie's girls, are coming back today after visiting

their grandparents at the beach. I know, a week at the beach, poor them. But they're going

back to school and then my kids are coming back as well.

So, Melanie and I have had the week to ourselves and it's been kind of amazing because it's gotten,

gotten, like, had the time in the space to really plan this show the right way and

she's been able to help and Brock from Wendy Bell Radio has been able to help but

we're going to be going from no kids to five kids in the blink of an eye.

So I think that this weekend is going to be a little bit of pandemonium for us,

but I'm grateful to have the kids back and the family together again. It's awesome. I've also

want to thank Deepwell. Again, there are founding sponsor of this

podcast. None of this podcast.

None of this would be possible without Deepwell.

If you like your lights on in your house

and cheap energy costs and cheap gas in your car

and a booming economy and you want America to be

energy independent. Thank an energy worker. And by the way, Deepwell is

hiring. They're hiring 60 to 80 people just this year alone.

And if you're willing to work, I mean,

you could start there making 50 grand a year.

And if you stay on their educational track

at the end of five years, you could be be making over $250,000 in the energy
