Hi everyone and welcome to episode 121 of the holding court podcast. Today, we are so happy to be back and

we have so much to catch you up on. We'll chat about our new destination, a scary travel incident

we recently had and discuss a hot topic regarding fundraising, all coming up right now on holding

court.

Boom, bum, bum, bum bum, bum, bum, bum, pal la la la all coming up right now on holding court.

We're back. Your favorite line.

And I took it from you. I don't know what happened, but when you brought me in, like my camera froze and it was on like a really weird face. So I don't know what that's going to be on there. It was. I almost stopped and pulled you off the broadcast. But we have to keep going. Yeah. Show must go on. It really does.

We're back.

We had a break.

It was actually perfectly in line with the off season.

I don't think it was intentional.

I think the off season just kind of happened and got away from us.

And then there was every intention in the world to come on and do an episode. But we were just everywhere and in between. And we saw the

tens and tens of messages for us to come back. So don't think we didn't feel that love for the last couple months,

but it feels right to start it up with a new season and catch everyone up on what we've been doing.

Yeah, it was kind of an unorthodox offseason for us. We weren't, you know, we didn't really have a home base this off season.

I feel like we were... Little nomads. We were nomads. We were all over the place. And it was just,

honestly, it was a nice little break from the pod. I think everyone was not just the tens and tens of

messages, but a lot of people in person were asking what's going on.

So happy to be back.

I'm happy to be, still be a guest.

I'm glad you didn't kick me off here.
