Welcome back for episode 157 of the Ross Bolin podcast otherwise known as RBP 157. I am your host Ross Bolin and my voice is the only one you'll be hearing today.

I just want to say that up front over the course of this episode. I will do my best to explain why that is why that's sad and then why at the same time.

This is the most excited I've ever been about anything in my entire life outside of my waiting of course I love you.

And I mean that's sincerely both the part about me being the most excited and the part about me loving my wife right now.

I'm pretty literally going through like both grieving and at the same time celebrating so it's extremely confusing and I am pumped to make sure that you're all as confused emotionally as I am by the end of this show.

It's the Ross Bolin podcast.

RBP 157 is brought to you by Lisa. Everybody has the right to rest but the key to getting your best rest is the right mattress. Meet Lisa with two awesome mattresses accessories and bases for deeper, better rest.

They're all foam Lisa mattress is new and improved featuring cooling LSA 200 foam for enhanced pressure relief for side sleepers or you can rest on the superior hybrid mattress.

It's the perfect combination of foam and spring for pressure relief and edge dead support. It's the bed that I have the superior and I'm in love with it. I could not more highly recommend it Lisa's mission is to provide a better night sleep for everybody and from day one they set out to create a company with heart and it's one of the reasons I enjoy working with them so much.

They donate one mattress for every 10 they sell through organizations that work and causes like foster care prevention and to date they've donated more than 32,000 mattresses through 1000 nonprofits plus one to my Mimi who has Alzheimer's in a memory care unit and I very much appreciate that.
