I do have some gents rolling in for summer but I just have a

couple of last women guests that I'm excited to get out to you before the

summer, before my version of the summer technically begins.

A little bit, yeah. Yeah, we'll get like freezing cold one day and then really hot the other day so it's

midwest weather it's but it's been worse a lot lately yeah it's it that's crazy

Fort Wayne is Fort Wayne one of those places that, and I super
