I was just telling you, there's more COVID around me than I've ever seen at any point in the

0:27.1

pandemic. I don't know if that's just coincidence or if it's new strength. Honestly, don't pay

0:31.7

1:40.3

the very near future. Next episode, tune in. It'll be really be lots of fun. Oh boy. That said, let's
