Welcome back, everybody, to the Wild at Heart podcast here in the week of August 15th.

For those of you who have been wondering, we've been off for three weeks.

Just needed a break, needed to let the staff have some family vacation time, and so we

took three weeks off.

Hope you noticed that.

We are glad to be back with you now with new content and live material.

Back in June, so we can go all the way back to the month of June, I had some of the team here

in the podcast studio with me, Alan and Alex, Jamie from our staff, and we were talking about

kind of the two-year effects of the global trauma, the low reserves,

and I thought it would be really good now that we've had some vacation to have the gang back.

So, Alex, Alan, Jamie, welcome back.

Thanks, Dan.

Thanks.

Good to have you guys back in here.

And folks, we didn't rehearse this.

We are coming in fresh with how are you doing?

Where are we now?

We were talking back in June about how our reserves tell the true story.

And what it's been like on all of us, and the effects of pandemic trauma,

and the global pressures, and the warfare of living in an hour like we're living in,

and the apathy, lethargy creed.

Do you remember?
