What's up, everyone? It's a mega mini coming at you in the main feed, 2026 style.

2026. Out the gate, raring to go. Everybody out there feeling bright-eyed and ready to go.

You feeling motivated, feel excited, you feel like setting new intentions and changing all your habits and all that stuff in the dead of winter while we mostly just want to curl up in front of a fire and pretend we're all Labradors.

Die.

I was going to say, be sleeping dogs by the fire.

Oh.

Okay, it's going to be one of these mega minis.

Okay. Well, just to give everyone a heads up, a mega mini as a behind-the-scenes podcast that we do over on Supercast.

Many thanks to our Supercast subscribers.

We love you. Most especially, you're the ones who keep this little thing cooking.

But this week we're putting it in the main feed because sometimes we do that just to spice

it up, make you remember that I actually don't have an Australian accent.

And then Holly doesn't talk like a Midwestern mom from 1996.

Not unless I have a full bottle of Southern comfort in my belly.

Or I'm recording a mega.

When's the last time you drank Southern comfort?

When I passed out in a forest preserve at the age of 16 and my friends dumped me off in my front lawn in my house

and my parents locked me in the basement for having gotten drunk and it was an

unfinished basement that was only cement and all I needed was water and Gatorade and Advil,

but instead they sent me like a Tupperware bowl to barf in and like left me on the concrete.

There's a story there.

Once in a while.
