I think it was six, five or six years ago that we talked last.

I can't believe that it's been that long since the whole pandemic thing.

0:54.9

As I mentioned last week in the follow up, it just so happened that as I was putting that old episode up out of the archives,

0:59.6

Dr. Amy Schlossberg had reached out to me about something else. I'm like, hey, why don't you

1:03.2

come back? Let's catch up. We're doing this season on Justice Warriors. You and Megan do all

lives. So we're no real plan here other than got Dr. Amy to come on and just catch up with

1:17.6

this. How you doing? Excellent. And something that I meant to mention to you, Bob. Ironically,

1:22.2

I saw that you had interviewed the folks over at the Notre Dame Exoneration Justice Clinic.

1:26.9

Yeah. I worked there last year for about a year working as a reentry coordinator. Really? Yes. And also that popped up. I'm like, oh my God, all these, you know, everything's kind of crossing paths now. Yep. Wait, why don't I know where you live? Where are you from? So no, I live, I live in New Jersey.

2:27.1

Yes, that's totally right.

2:28.2

I tell people I live in Michigan and everybody always thinks like Detroit, Lansing, but I live in like rural Southwestman Midwest. Literally, I mean, when I go for a run, I run into Indiana. It's like right next to my house. It's like just right across the border. That's really funny. That's why I would never think to mention that. But okay, then. Yeah, that'll be really cool.
