Mike Riley, welcome back.

My thoughts and prayers have been with you and your family in the last few weeks.

I can't express to you what the loss of your father has been like to open the show this week.

The forum is yours to open. Thank you, Jimmy. Appreciate it. And thanks to all the show this week. The forum is yours to open.

Thank you, Jimmy.

Appreciate it.

And thanks to all the listeners and everyone that reached out to express their condolences to my family and I.

I'd never ever on my worst enemy would ever wish for them to lose a loved one, let alone a parent. And it was one of the hardest

thing, the hardest day of my life saying goodbye to my dad. But I can tell you that, you know,

he passed away with all of us around his bedside and that's what he wanted. That's the most

peaceful thing I can look at from that spectrum, and that's what he

wanted. But you know what? This is a good form for me here to be back with you, Jimmy, and get

back into the swing of things. My dad would want. He would want that. He want more normalcy and so

forth. So it's a tough couple of weeks roller coaster ride, and that's obviously why I wasn't here last week after his passing.

And he was in the hospital two weeks ago also.

We didn't do a show that week.

So I do appreciate the kind words, everyone reaching out and so forth that did catch wind of it.

And appreciate you, Jimmy.

Let me express my appreciation of thanks to everyone

and for your support as well during this as well. I know you were checking in on me a lot

of the time making sure I was good and trying to send some positive vibes. And you know what,
