Hey guys and welcome to the Moms a Murder podcast, a true crime podcast featuring myself, Mandy, and my dear friend Melissa.

Hi, Melissa.

Hi, Mandy.

How are you?

I'm doing great.

I feel like I'm on a fast train to the end of the year.

Is that, like, thing I can say, even though I just feel like every year in September, I always say, okay, get ready. The end of the year comes up really fast from here. And now here I am saying it again this year. I know. And it's always like a surprise. Like I didn't know it was coming. Right. Every year, same time on the calendar.

I feel like we're just sucking diesel this year and just really moving right on.

Is that a throwback to last week's Irish phrases? Yes, I'm using it all the time.

And no one knows what I'm doing.

It was great.

I actually saw where a few people on social media had commented about our last thing before we go talking about those Irish phrases. And they were saying they were cracking up because, of course, we sound very American saying these phrases. Shocking. But they said that, yes, these are phrases. They really, really do say them truly over there in Ireland. I love it. Yes, I love it. My favorite, I think, was earwigging.

So I haven't had an opportunity to use it just yet, but I have not forgotten.

And I will use it as soon as I possibly can.

Absolutely.

So before we get into this week's story, we just have a quick little reminder that we will be off next week.

What is that, Melissa?

29th.

September 29th.

There will be no new episode, but we will be back with a new episode on October 6th,

which just feels very weird to say.

It goes right in line with what I just said about how this year is flying by.
