Welcome to the Boneyard with Steve Robertson, as always. I am your good friend that host Steve

Robertson. A little bit later edition of the Maroon Friday Boneyard. Hope you guys are well today.

Hope it was a payday for you, for you buy weekly wage earners. That's always great. Christmas time is

nearly here, 19 days away. Don't delay your Christmas shopping.

For those of you that are curious about what to get me, cash.

Cash is the way to go.

Just walk up and hand it to me, and I'll be very grateful.

So a lot of things to talk about.

moment to be down at a place like that but to be there during Christmas and during

holidays and being away from your family it's really evidence of how far you've fallen

and so I try to go be an encouragement to those folks because I know what

it's like. I also like to take this time to remind you there are a lot of people around you this time

of year is very difficult. Not that you shouldn't enjoy your Christmas because I plan to enjoy mine.

But there are a lot of people out there that perhaps can't enjoy the way that we can't. So I encourage

you spread a little kindness,, little Christmas cheer to everybody.

It's one of the best

things about this time of year. Everybody seems
