Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello.

Welcome to the Nauti-Bentai show.

I'm your host, Rav Schuter, and it is Wednesday, which means our dear friend Donnie Meacham is joining us. Hey, Donnie, are you there?

a lo la la blah blah blah brib's you say it's Wednesday I'm feeling good I'm actually I actually really do feel good it's 11 it's 12 days. And I am, I'm on a sober journey this month. Oh, wow. And I remember for a long time, you were sober throughout most of the pandemic. And it feels good. Your body feels good. To wake up without a hangover is amazing and something that I'm ashamed to admit. I'd forgot for a while. I just thought you felt this awful every single day. and you don't need to feel that bad. Why did you do it, Donnie? Why did you? The same way, I just got tired of waking up with hangovers on the weekends. And I only drink the trashiest alcohol. I drink Corona and Fireball, which is the worst. And, you know, at my 30s, it doesn't feel so good. It doesn't feel good. it doesn't feel good it doesn't feel good after the age of 30 maybe 40 you can't get up with a hangover anymore and have a good

life yeah I gave it up it really sort of re refocused my drinking so now I only drink for fun

I only drink when I want to go out with friends and laugh.

I don't drink to hide my feelings anymore,

which I used to do on work nights when I had to meet horrible sources

and people I didn't want to really meet.

I'd do a quick shot, maybe two, before I went to meet them to take the edge off.

Now I go in, I have half a glass of wine, I get my gossip, and I leave, and I've saved alcohol

now for special nights with my friends. Hey, we both have work going on in our apartments

today, so if you hear some background, banging, hammering, it's happening in mine, too,

Donnie, you're not alone, so do forgive us, but we had to do a show. Of course we did. We never fail there.

Hey, let's jump in. What time is it, my friends? It is tea time. Taylor Swift has been spotted out

in New York City for the first time since her big split with Joe. So Taylor has broken cover

for the first time and she's popped into the light.

The 12-time Grammy winner, you heard that right, 12 times, Donnie, who is currently on her

blockbuster tour, was spotted out in New York City on Monday night.

Just one day after the news of the breakup, sent shockwaves around social media and the world.
