So we just got back to our home and there was a Thrive Market order sitting on my front porch because that's the way I planned it.

Just making it easier and convenient and I know that these are family brand products that are 100% non-GMO, making it easy for me just to order and have it ready for my kids to eat and be happy.

If you're ready to start 2025 junk free,

head to Thrivemarket.com slash morning to get 30% off your first order, plus a free $60

gift. That's thrive market.com slash morning. Ready? Tea for time. Wow. I feel like I haven't

been on the mic in quite some time.

So first, I just, this is probably the first time you guys are hearing my voice in a while.

I do have some cough drops in and I apologize.

But I just want to first, you know, mention what's kind of been going on in California and really not mention it,

but because we'll talk more about that on TMA on Thursday,

but just right out of the gates saying thank you to our first responders,

our firefighters.

It's, I don't want to get emotional because all of my podcasts recently have been emotional,

but I've never seen anything like this.

Just the devastation that has run through California.

And I could not imagine being a first responder right now.

The hours that they are putting in and just the, I mean, you think about

fighting an inferno, just like, or being in an inferno, is that I'm saying that right? Who cares?

No one cares. You know what I'm saying. For countless hours, for a second, their fires were popping

up all over. And it felt like once they

put, you know, got a little headway on one, another one would pop up. And they'd be fighting that.

I just pray for the safety of these individuals. And for, you know, for just God to come in the hearts
