Welcome to the Eric Erickson Show podcast, Our 2.

Hello, America.

Welcome, it is Eric Erickson here.

The phone number, if you want to be on the program today, 8779773-745. We're going to treat today like an open line Friday because I'm going to be traveling

tomorrow. And I know the setup where I'm going to be. I won't have access to my call screening

program. So the limited internet for me to be able to connect to the station. So if you want to get

calls in, you got a call today, 877979373-7-4-. Don't forget to text, Eric, E-R-I-C-K to 33-77-7-7. Get all the links.

You don't need 30 dolls for your kids.
