and we're a better way to do this

let me show you a better way

and we are live despite numerous technical difficulties today.

Yeah, this is one of those shows I came up with the idea for like Friday.

And it's a Monday show.

So I had all the time of the world to think about it and get it ready to go.

So I'm like, it'll be right out of the gate, finish the morning

routine, do a little bit of writing and produce the show, pre-production anyway, and then go

live. Maybe instead of noon, 11, so I can get done early today. And here we are five minutes

after the one o'clock official start time central time and just getting going.

I won't bore you with all of it, but it involves things like we just had to move the entire

survival podcast network and empire to a brand new server because our old server company that

we have used since 2010 decided they don't want to be in the particular business of doing

bare metal servers anymore. So we had to migrate that. That has created numerous issues that Tom

is hammering down like whack them all one at a time. Everything's moved. Everything works for you guys.

It's my end that's the problem, i.e. right now, a lot of other stuff has been solved. I still can't

send an email. I can send it. It just doesn't get to the person I'm sending it to. It gets

knocked back. And Tom's remedying that. And some other things that you guys really don't,

who my preferred host is, doesn't matter, Tim. She is my preferred host now. I'm not going to tell you because we're not, we just migrated there. So they're not a preferred anything yet. They have to earn my business. They have to earn my loyalty. They have to earn my being willing to recommend them to others. But they seem to be good. I don't think the problems are theirs.

I think it's like moving your email off of something that's been the same IP address since 2010, and it's 2026, and that's causing some issues with providers.

But, no, I'm not going to tell you who I'm using because they're not getting an endorsement yet because I've been using them for exactly three days now.

So anyway, the whole point is I'm late for a reason instead of an excuse.
