You know what I hate? What? The news? Oh, you. Of course. I hate it and yet I can't stop listening to it. Need to stay informed, but it stresses me out.

So what do you do? Well, maybe check out a weekly news podcast that'll keep you informed but doesn't take itself too seriously? How about that?

Hey guys, Matt McConkey here, just a quick and painful note before we start the show. Yes I am

doing okay. No I did not see this coming. Yes I did just release a similar

statement on the Bitch Sesh Feed. I know a lot of you listen to that show as well, but I've got a lot to say on the matter. The matter of course being the divorce of Jennifer Aniston and Justin Throw. And I just want to thank you guys for reaching out to me all of your support all of your love it means the world you know

Dave Holmes not to name drop but he texted me and he said to me hey Matt look for the helpers and I thought you know who our helpers are it's it's

our audience it's the community of our podcast you guys have have really lifted me up

you've loved me and accepted me in spite of me being a queer and a weirdo and and

and not that great of a podcast host frankly and and an obsessive Jennifer Aniston fan you you know, to the point of concern.

You guys have accepted me in spite of all of that or maybe because of it and so I just, I want to really, really express my gratitude to you and still processing this in a big way, but I will leave you with one quote from Jen herself.
