Hello and welcome to the Victor Davis Hanson, in his own words.

We are back for a short episode.

Victor's back. This will be the first time we're doing a short episode. Victor's back.

This will be the first time we're doing a long podcast.

And his doctors think that it's a good idea maybe to do a little bit of what he used to do.

But we will be doing, we'll see how it goes and see how Victor takes it.

So all the way up, he should be recovering for three months. So he's

still got another two months to go before that three month mark is met, just short of that. So we'll

see how Victor does. And he's going to try to talk to his audience. We're glad to have everybody out there.

Thank you for joining us.

Victor, I know you're not feeling even, you're probably about 50%, but sitting down and talking,

maybe you'll be able to do that.

Yeah, I mean, for me, I never had AFID before, and the second procedure, because I had aneurysm, made a lot of blood loss and trauma to the heart, apparently.

And so now they're trying to get the right dose to mitigate AFIB, but not to, because I have a naturally low heart rate. I load a bike a lot and jog.

And at 51 beats, I feel like I'm a lizard or a reptile of some sort. So if I fall asleep here

or I sound like I'm drunk, it's not, it's just the medicine, beta blocker, which I despise,

the medicine. But I'm getting better, I hope. It's just going to's just the medicine, beta blocker, which I despise, the medicine.

But I'm getting better, I hope.

It's just going to take longer than I expected because I had two operations instead of one.

Yeah, and again, it sounded like your doctor felt that three months was a good period to go before you even expected to be 80%.

But he also said, you might want to try a few things.

And so that's why we're here with everybody to do the show.
