Hey everybody, it's Blue Gal, and I am talking to you from just outside of Drift Glass's sick room.

He has had a bad cold that he got from me, and he's got laryngitis. He says he sounds like Brenda Vicaro. He does not sound like Brenda Vicaro. He sounds like drift glass with laryngitis.

So we're going to take today off, give his throat a rest.

In the meantime, I want you all to know that on Thursday's show, we will be screaming about ACA subsidies and our loss of ACA subsidies and how much insurance is going to cost for us next year

and how angry everybody is about this. It's really been remarkable to see on social media.

The people who are paying attention at this point are noticing just how ridiculous these prices are. It's going to be

even worse next week when people actually sign on and see the sticker shock. So very, very bad news for

Republicans. And the other thing I wanted to tell you is that today on our Patreon page, I will be posting a very nice photo of Drift Glass

and me from a couple weeks ago when we went out to dinner. And it definitely highlights the height

difference between us. So if you'd like to go over to patreon.com forward slash pro-left pod and take a look, I'll make it

accessible to everybody.

It's a fun photo.

And I hope all of you are well, and we will talk to you on Thursday.

Love you guys.

Bye-bye.

Okay, boys and girls, this is your friend Drift Glass.

I'm flat on my back surrounded by cats and medicines

and a loving wife. Everything's fine, but I blew my voice out with a cold and pushed it too hard.

And so this is what I sound like today, which is why we will not be recording a podcast today,

because I can't stand the way my voice sounds and I'm

sure you can't either. So hopefully I'll be back to some sort of semblance of human speech by

Thursday and then we'll do a show. So love and kisses to you all, appreciate sending them cards and letters.
