I want to welcome everyone back to the Piquanino show, and thank you.

This is my 1,000th episode.

If you would have told me when I started this, that I would have had an 1,000th episode,

I would have told you that you were probably insane, and I'd probably be dead by now or something.

But here I am. And I invited my friend

Thomas 777 to come on the show and do this with me. How you doing, Thomas?

I'm very well. Thank you. I'm honored to be here for the, for the millenarian episode, I guess.

I mean, that's no small thing a thousand episodes that's

a hell of a lot of content that's a real milestone and and it's a milestone that it's new

year's eve this has been a really incredible year i mean everybody says that i mean i don't

i don't mean that in a corny way i mean mean, it really has. And I'm profoundly optimistic for

2024. So we're in a good place. I am as well. I'm very optimistic for 2020. I think if our

people really concentrate on getting things done, taking care of business this year, 2024 at the

end, we're going to be much stronger

for it. They will be much stronger for it too.

I think there's a historical moment underway. Yeah, definitely. And I think I'm both old enough

and I'm plugged in enough to the zeitgeist because, I mean, that's frankly all I do is

try and perceive these things you know I think I

think I can I think I can read the proverbial proverbial tea leaves more adeptly than some men

so yeah these are exciting times man um it's good we're here on New Year's Eve, producing content, like the busy

bees we are and not not not doing gross stuff for New Year's Eve, like dodging petals of

vomit and stepping over like weeping fat chicks. Those days are gone for me.
