Welcome to the Eric Erickson Show podcast, Our Three.

Welcome, it's Eric Erickson here, my show across the nation from Atlanta, Georgia,

and I hope you guys have blues got it.

It's been a couple of days since I've seen it.

Can I just for a moment, before I get into the big news, can I just say those of you who are parents, you have my sympathies.

If you have kids in school like we do, this is our kids last week of school.

Some of you, depending on where you are in the country, go longer.

But we are in the, the moment where we're actually, we're just out of the moment of the surprise events you know the

surprise events dad you come into the award ceremony what award ceremony it's not on

the calendar it's it's the one at school for for honors win tomorrow morning 830

oh yes I guess I'll be there. Dad, you come into the band

concert. What band concert? The one they sent an email about 30 minutes ago. Oh, surprise.

Oh, guess what? We've got a project due. When does it do? Tomorrow, what do you need for? Well,

I need poster board. I need one of those

three-quarter folling foam panel things and it's all got to be done by 9 a.m. Really? Surprise.

The amount of last minute we, you know, so we finally had to crack the whip on my kid and like, stop procrastinating.

I am a procrastinator.

But the parents are on a group chat.

Well, the moms are.

The dads, all of us were smart enough not to get added to it.

And we got a text the other day.
