All righty, hello and everyone, welcome to it.

It is the 5th of December, 2025.

Happy Friday, glorious, delicious Friday.

I'm Derek Hunter.

This is the Derek Hunter podcast.

Appreciate you listening, download and share and telling a friend.

All that good stuff.

Very, very much do.

By the way, if you're listening on the radio when I'm on the radio, this is the last day of the

Fisher House Radiothon.

So if you want to help with the fundraising for Fisher House,

a good tax deduction, a good charity, a great cause,

I encourage everybody to go and call 888-294-8-560, 8-29-294-8-560 or go to WMAL.com slash

Fisherhouse and donate. Help Fisherhouse, help our military recover and their families in ways that can't even describe. So yes,

it's the annual Fisherhouse Radiothon. Appreciate all the support there.

Appreciate the support of patreon.com slash Derek Hunter podcast, too, where you can go and get the

week in F and review. And I suspect I'm already thinking, like, this is going to have to be a short show

because, A, I'm exhausted because it was an exceedingly long day today.

And then it was, I just, I can't think of ways to talk about this story without cursing about it.

And the audio that I want to play for this is something that I need to curse about.

I'm sorry, and I understand that, well, for the price, you're paying nothing for this.

I can give you the gist of it.
