Girl, girl, what are we even doing?

Just.

What's, what, what is happening?

Where are we?

I'll come up with an answer by the time we get to the end of the show.

I knew this week was going to be hell when we got breaking news out of Cambridge.

Like, what's Cambridge? Girl, Breaking crime news. It's rough out here. I was looking and it was like, vibes are on. And I was like, oh, I guess something vibes are off. And I'm like, everything's off. Like, what am I supposed to? And we're trying to turn it on, guys. We're trying to turn it on. We're trying so hard. But I've got my, the vibes are off coffee mug.

You do.

You do.

Well, sister, let's get into it.

I'm Saeed-Jones.

And I'm Zach Stafford, and you are listening to Vibe Check.

Listen. Listen, we will tell you a joke, but Zach and I will never tell you a lie.

Nope.

It is a scary time, friends. It is just, you know, on every front, you're right to be worried, you're right to be angry.

And I also want to say that I know we've all felt this way for a long time, right? And that's what makes it always more

pointed. Something I say a lot is there's always another basement in hell. Like, just however

low, it just, the floor always kind of drops out. It's real out here.

Like, there's, there's no escape. Yeah. And there's a, I used to think there was a relief in the

telling of the truth. Yeah. And there is to a certain extent. And there is. And you know,

there's the quote by Andrew Gibson, you know, the truth may not always be hopeful, but the telling of it can be. But listen, this episode has a lot of truth in it. And we'll tell you in a second why there's a lot of truth. We have an amazing person with us today. But hope shallow today.

A little rough. A little rough. But we got each other and we're going to get through it all.
