Hello and welcome to the Pirates Fan Forum here on D.K. Pittsburgh Sports Podcast Network. I'm your host, Gary Morgan.

Usually always with me is Jim Stam, but Jim Stam has decided for some reason to get his wisdom teeth out 30 years too late.

And he told me early in the week he was going to be getting him out,

and he wanted to try to do the show anyway.

And I was nice enough to just let him believe that he would be better by Friday.

But he's not.

So joining us this week is our friend Josh Booth. He was going to join us anyway. But now he's going to hold down the fort as the co-host here on this week's episode. So thanks for joining us, Josh. Say hello. Hello. Always a pleasure. And come on, Jim. I knew that. When you guys said that, I was like, Jim's going to try to do that.

We might get some real fun answers from Jim.

The really funny thing is like his kid is probably like 10 years away from having it done himself, right?

Like a normal human being as a teenager.

And Jim's going to be able to look him deadpan in the face and just be like,

it hurts like a bitch kid.

It just happened.

I just had it done.

You know,

like there's going to be no,

no trying to remember back to the silly thing you said when you came out of

anesthesia to your parents.

I can't even imagine what Jim said to his wife.

Or there's no, man, when I had that done, they used to do it this way. Right. They used to just tie it up to a horse and have them

run. Yeah, I mean, I thought the procedure might get a little bit better. Let's see,

John Gorman says, what's up, guys?
