I think that the holidays feel like frozen noses. I love walking with the dog for long periods of time.

Hopefully it's snowing and you've got to wrap up warm. So I think a frozen nose is a sweaty armpit

Are you almost at a cross the stage for me, didn't you? Across the stage. Yeah, my old acting days. Across the stage.

Camera right is Matthew. Matthew Stockton. Anyway, how are you today? I'm good. This is going to be kind of a difficult and personal episode for me.

Yeah, we want to do this in a little different way. It's going to be a little more solemn. So I'll read because it's our Remembrance Day episode.
