It's your daily dose of Donna. Welcome to the show, you guys. Thank you so much for being here.

Hopefully. I'm out of breath. I am I'm here. I am here and I'm happy to be here. Today is

Thursday October 12th and I am running from place to place because it's been such a crazy day.

Every morning has proved to be a little bit chaotic, which is why my schedule is definitely still very, very off this week.

It's all, you know, to be expected.

Phone calls, oh, whoops, phone calls are coming in non-stop.

And the news has reached out to me, local news,

and a variety of different things that are coming up.

Like people want to interview me me people want me on their

podcast to talk about this I told Lance I was like I think I inadvertently woke up and like became an activist like I didn't not just today obviously but these

last couple days it's like obviously I this is not my platform it's not something I do is talk about like politics or this isn't even about politics is just like humane issues.

I don't I'm not very comfortable with this moment, right?

But I want to explain to you guys before we get into the show

and trust me, we have a lot to talk about today with O.C.

and a few other things.

I want to tell you, just like I really think, so, okay, so, this is a struggle every day for me to do this show and it's a welcomed struggle.

I say it in a way like I want to do this.

But I want you to understand where I feel right?

Like an every day I'm going to tell you guys,

because you know, this show is called Daily Dose of Donna. You don't tune in, at least my

dosers, don't tune in just to hear about OC. You want to hear about kind of a little bit of my take on things, my life, and I hear you guys in the

DMs and the comments, and I appreciate you guys so much for everything you're saying.
