Hi! Hi.

Oh, are we recording?

Yes, we are.

Okay, hi.

It was like a very slow countdown on my end.

Oh.

And I'm going to try to really project my voice this week.

Yes.

I've been wondering, like, why do I always sound so

quiet? I even went to go so far as to buy the exact same microphone you had to just make sure

that we're on like even playing fields. And my sister was here this weekend and she is a vocal engineer.

Like, this is literally what she does for a living. And I was like, what's the

problem with my microphone? She's like, I think Caitlin just projects her voice much better than you.

Okay. I love that she said, tried to make it a positive because I do feel like, well, all of my life,

my loud voice, my natural talking register is at least three

times higher than normal. If I had a dollar for every time somebody in my family or my husband

has said, stop shouting when I'm just like talking, especially when I get excited, it goes to like

such a high degree. I mean, you would never see me going to be a billionaire.

Well, it's also so funny because you're holding your microphone even further away from your face than I am.

I'm like eating mine. And yours is way down here and still you're louder. Have you had your ears checked?

Oh, my God.

My ears?
