Podcast hosts, they're not sending their best, or we're not sending our best, at least not this week, because I'm sick, really sick, some sort of stomach bug or food poisoning.

sitting on the toilet now for more than 24 hours. So I don't have a show opener for this week.

Sorry about that, but I would like to leave you with this thought, or I would like to propose this
