Doom, doom, do do do do dot spiral.

Spot, spiral, two, mics, two hours starting now.

Hey, everyone, unfortunately, due to the atmospheric river that hit L.A. and our internet this week,

and Andy's travel plans, we weren't able to do a new

show. Well, we did do a new show. I did a new show, but it's not a regular show. It's a clip

show. And since I needed to contain the task, I decided to do the best of the lockdown, the

pandemic lockdown of 2020.

So I went from right when we started our remote shows through about September.

So like March to September of 2020, this covers.

And when I say covers, my methodology is sketchy.

It was a lot of needle drop and hope for the best kind of stuff. But I found some good stuff. I think you'll enjoy it. You might also enjoy the little interstitial stuff I threw in to give you the flavor of those shows back then when I deeply cared about giving texture and atmosphere. And, you know, I had a lot of time.

So let me set the scene a little bit.

I don't have to set the scene about the pandemic.

You all remember that.

But I do want to set the scene in terms of our little landscape here,

which is this first show happened right on the heels of Andy losing his sister and his mother about two weeks apart.

So it's fresh still.

And I apologize for the audio because it was the age of everyone sounding like shit from home.

I don't know why we didn't get Andy and Mike sooner, but we just didn't.

So I apologize for that.

It gets a little better as it goes on, but it never gets great.

Much like our show.
