Welcome back to retail therapy.

My name's Will DeFries.

As always with me in the studio today, my loyal co-host, he's off the IR right now.

Barrett Dudley, ladies and gentlemen.

You couldn't keep me away. You could not keep me away for long.

You know, I just, I just, I couldn't do that to the listeners, especially after going on a little

trip and I just, you know, I'm just

taking notes. Everything that I'm doing is suddenly so retail therapy coded. And I was like,

I got to get back in there. I got to get back in this dude. It's like you take, it's like

we're taking these, we're taking these recording weeks for granted. Yeah, because like,

everything I saved for today's episode, every save that I did, every bookmark that I

pushed my finger down on for, it just felt like a little more weighty to me. I just was like,

man, I don't know when or if I'm even going to be able to go through this. And then when Barrett

hit me up and said, I got availability on Friday afternoon. Yeah. Let's absolutely ride.

Yeah. I will say I do have some other

episodes planned. One's recorded. I have another one recording next week. I've got two guests

coming on separately. We're not in the worst spot right now getting through our Barrettless March.

We're going to do a good job here. It's all going it's all going just as planned and uh yeah i'm i'm

excited for all of it well because you host white lotus or sorry oysters clams and cockles

which is doing a white lotus content and i think white lotus is very retail therapy coated especially

given today's content yeah um are you are you happy with the first two episodes of the season thus far?

So I'll pull my punches a little bit here because I love the show.
