Welcome to Contriarsquire Radio on Bo.

And I'm John David.

Hey, Bo. Good afternoon, man. Man, good afternoon to you, too, sir. How is it going over there in Jackson, Mississippi? This only mere days away from, or from, not away from. What am I saying? It already happened. It's in the past. The 45th anniversary is coming gone. The road to 50 is in front of us, my friend. How are you feeling?

It is indeed. It is indeed. Man, great event that we were doing really well. It's just been all over the map as far as insanity, busyness of it all, but things are really good. So I'm just so happy to be around friends and lots of family and everything over the past week or so. And they were just having a really, really good time. And getting geared up for the fall, man. It's going to be going to be a lot of fun. That's awesome, man. I just got back from New York myself. I didn't mention this last week because I didn't want to give away the surprise. But my brother, my youngest brother, just turned 30. My other brother decided that, like, he came up with this idea for us to surprise him with a surprise birthday party, which is great because he hates surprises and he hates birthday parties, like specifically his birthday.

But despite hating all that, he loves us.

He loves his siblings.

He loves me, my brother and my sister. And so, you know, given that he is actually out in New York City and we are, you know, wherever else we are in D.C. and Texas and Jackson and all over, we thought, you know what, it would be this massive surprise. We'll spring on him. And maybe this time he'll love his birthday because we'll all be there and he would not expect it. Man, that's hilarious.

At least, you know, try to be forgiving enough to make you happy on his birthday instead

of himself.

Yeah.

So anyway, yeah.

So that's, that was this last past weekend.

Always a blast.

I love New York, man.

I absolutely love New York.

It was interesting, the planning of this particular trip because, you know, with it being kind of going up for the sake of, you know, for a party, normally when I go to New York, I stay with my brother, right?

Like, you know, that's free lodging.

Well, I can't tell him I'm coming because I'm going to surprise him.
