Welcome back to retail therapy. My name's Will Barrett Dudley. How we doing?

We're doing all right, you know, hanging in there, surviving.

I don't know if I believe you.

Living, living.

Well, it's been a week.

It's been a real week.

It's been a month, Barrett.

Honestly, it has been a month.

It has not been the best month for your boy, and maybe for a lot of people. I don't know. January is tough. It's always kind of tough. I feel like. Yeah. What do you call it? You call it the Sunday of the year, sort of. Could be the Monday. Or the Monday. I don't know which one it is. Yeah. No, you're right. I can make a case for either. No, I'd like your, it's the Monday of the year. Yeah. It's been an awful, awful January. Yeah, it's not been a great January. And so I was just, I'll tell you how the week's been. I'll run through my week real quick because it's not, it's not all beer, merettis and martinis and oysters and UPS packages arriving for the for the retail therapy boys.
