Hello, welcome, good evening, hi, welcomed or good whatever time it is that you're watching this.

Welcome, this is a special episode of the Therapy Gekyll podcast. This is is a special episode there will be no

callers in this episode it will just be me alone ranting into a microphone I've

been wanting to try something new I've been wanting to try something new. I've been

wanted to try something different. I've been doing this podcast for about four

years now, a little over four years now, and it's mainly just been me and occasionally someone else

talking to people on the phone and I wanted to challenge myself to see if I can do an entire hour just

ranting to myself I mean it's technically there's more than that I have all right so I yesterday I went

on Instagram and I made an Instagram story and I was like I'm gonna do a viewer mail episode of the

podcast please send words that was all I specified was words I said please send words to therapy gecko mail at gmail.com and so I'm

going to read as many of the emails that people sent me as I can.

I'm streaming live on Twitch while I'm recording this so maybe I'll talk to the

chat but basically this is got this is kind of like it's going to be a

little bit of my therapy session in a way I might talk about my life or I might

not or I might just delve into what the people email me.

It's funny because I've I've always been kind of bad at like the Dear Abbey format.

I don't consider myself like an advice guy, like a, like a, you know, but

dear Abbey, it's like, it's like here's my long thing and then here's Abbey's long response. I don't really do that. I like to get into the

conversation with folks. I find that makes me more comfortable, but I want to get

into, I want to try something new but I want to get into I want to try something new.

I want to I want to challenge myself.

I've been bored and I've know you look, people like to talk about themselves.
