Hello, fellow rebel capitals.

Hope you're well.

We're going to have a great show today.

We've got by back by popular demand.

Chris Irons from the QTR podcast.

He's going to be doing some commentary on a lot of stuff right now.

The data from the small businesses is starting to trend the other direction, unfortunately.
