Hello, hello, hello, hello everyone. So we've not done a live show for quite a while,

0:15.9

but also late, obviously, predictably. We were just getting, you know, we have, we have

0:20.2

a lot of guests today and a lot of excellent guests, I should say, at that. So we just had

0:24.7

to get everyone's, you know, just saw a few technical details. We've done it though.

0:29.0

We've got through it. One of our guests said the near stiff whiskey after the process. So maybe

0:34.4

we'll all just be violently inebriated by the end of the show. And we've got so much to talk

1:41.8

YouTube link if possible. It just helps the show more. I know lots of you prefer to watch on the

1:45.4

Facebook and it's very little I can do about it to be honest with you. But if you want to click

1:48.5

on the YouTube link, that would be nice. Click like. He clicked like, leave some comments, um,
