Welcome back to retail therapy podcast brought to you by Sunday Scaries.

I am your in studio host today, Barrett Dudley. But

joining me on the other line is your usual in-studio host. It's Will DeFries. What's going on,

Will? Hello, good to be here. I'm sorry that I cannot be in the studio today. As much as I

wanted to come in, it just simply would not have been a good idea. It wouldn't have been. It wouldn't have been. And, you know, we don't, we don't have to belabor why you're not here, but I'm glad you didn't come in. I am however proud of you that, you know, that you're here. You're making the effort. You're doing the pod. We're're doing it anyways we're going remote and uh i mean

you know like look at your setup dude like it's it's the vibes are immaculate there so why why wouldn't

you want to record from there i don't mind working from my little like home office slash den slash

whatever you want to call it some people call it the grateful

den because there's a lot of grateful dead stuff in here right right that's just some people uh

what i don't like doing is recording from it i i'm not i've like evolved from the covid mentality of

like doing everything via phone call and zoom and i I no longer operate very well in this environment.

So we'll see how this goes.

Yeah, you're noticeably, you know, just going off, uh, off like a,

a regular mic.

You don't have like a thousand dollars sure in front of your face right now.

No, I, one thing that I, I have misplaced somewhere along the way is my mic from COVID times.

I think I let Dave borrowed at one point and then I never got it back.

And so Dave's probably got two mics chilling somewhere.

Well, you're looking very smart over there.

Tell us about this. Tell us about this chair.

What we got going on the chair?

Is this a canvas, a Dyrindack or something? Is it, did I say, I probably botched that.
