Kiss the Ring.

Todd, how are you on this Friday afternoon?

Ring, I have a plaque, but you can kiss the plaque.

Doing well. You need a ring too, I think a plaque, but you can kiss the plaque. Doing well.

You need to ring, too, I think.

I need to learn the secret handshake. We haven't been together as a group since the award. It's just the way it's been.

Doing well. My Red Sox aren't doing so well in opening day. Nice weather. My apartment search isn't going so well, but I'm doing fine. Well, good luck with that apartment search, man. I know it's, you know, I hate moving more than just about anything. And so I feel your pain. And, uh, yeah, my Reds are with the, as far as the Red Sox go,

two and five right now,

and on Apple TV Plus for whatever reason,

so I won't get to watch them tonight.

I refuse to sign up for another streaming service.

But by the way,

I just had to start the show and to update people on Byron Buckston.

Right knee soreness is what they're saying, Forster from today's game. And if you saw it, he, he, you know, he liked out a double, but then as he was sliding into the second base, he like hit the dirt, and did you say he like audibly yelled something? That's what I read. I happen, I have the game on, but without the sound.

And I didn't even see the play. So I read it about it on, I was such an idiot. I got, oh, Bucks insert, you know, I saw it on Twitter. I'm, then, wait a minute, I'm watching that game. I didn't even, so, like, what, what game is he in today? It didn't all click, doing some work and had some distractions going on behind me earlier,

which I think are over now, fortunately, some work being done on the roof of the place

as my landlords get ready to, to sell it.

Hence my need for a new place to live.
