Hey, everybody, welcome back to the Blister podcast on the Blister Podcast Network.

I'm Jonathan Ellsworth, and you can check out everything we're doing and reviewing over at blisterreview.com.

All right, well, it is time once again to review the news with Cody Townsend.

We've got a lot on tap for you here today.

And so let's just go ahead and dive right in.

Here we go.

All right, well, Cody, it is Sunday, the 3rd of July, and we have figured out your recording

situation that has taken some time, but I think we're ready to dive into, man, there's so many

potential things we could talk about. We've had to like boil some things down because this could

be a six hour conversation for sure. Anyway, let's just get started and I should probably be

polite and ask, are you doing okay? How are you doing? I'm doing great. I'm actually in Santa Cruz

my parents' house and spent the last two weeks here. It's one of the things you realize once you have a kid,

the importance of family nearby. And we have a little kind of studio in the back of my parents'

house. We're right near the ocean. We get into surf. We've got built-in childcare right there

because finding like real child care, then what you have to pay for is really, really, really difficult these days. You know, it's it makes headlines and then you go to do it yourself and you're like, yeah, okay. So spring of 2023, we might have an opening. Like, oh God. So, so yeah. So it's been awesome to be down here. But that's, that's why my recording setup might be a little subpar because I thought I'd be home by now

and thought I'd be back to my recording setup, which I did not bring down.

So hopefully I sound oh good.

You sound great, man.

We take this seriously because honestly, it drives me crazy.

There would be big news services that record podcasts, and they're just, like, going into their computer. And I'm like, you guys are like Bloomberg. Why do you not have a microphone? So I take these things seriously. We appreciate that about you. Also, I would not let you not do that. So it works out. We got a good thing.

We got a good thing. Totally. All right. On our list here, the first thing we have, it says in our

doc, Cody's secret topic. Yeah. So yeah, I had something that I couldn't necessarily run by you
