Hey, wonderful's welcome to episode 545 of the JV club with my awesome, awesome guest,

Mallory O'Mira. This is the second triumphant half of the Reading Classes podcast right here on Max Fun and it was a pleasure and a joy to have this conversation with Mallory.

My voice is still holding up. I'm still getting over this cold. I really hope none of you

got this thing because it is not any of the bad things you can get tested for

because I definitely got tested for all of of them but I was without a voice for several days and

I still have like the source throat in town and just a lot of mucus and a lot of like convulsive coughing.

So keep yourselves healthy out there and bear with my slightly cold voice

for this episode and for this intro and hopefully it will be back to

normal next week but to be honest with you I don't know this might just be my new life

so get used to this new voice and I'll talk to you next week everybody. Yeah, I really want to thank you for putting up with.

The Scratchy voice we can all agree is like somehow socially acceptable.

We've decided that like we like

smoker and drinkers voices yes we don't like smoking anymore but we do still want

that voice which vaping doesn't give you it's very frustrating for people I think

exactly I know it I know it but that I do feel like there might be just some like deep

gasping breaths that maybe aren't as adorable as like smoking.

Dude voice is not.

You're a cursedy alley voice.

Yeah, when I, when I, when I realize I've been talking too long and suddenly go,

heh, then that's probably not going to be as fun for people.

So, I live up in Idlewild and it is dry as a bone up here, so.

Oh, man.
