Hello welcome to this episode of Watch Out for Fireballs. I want to take a moment at the beginning of this episode to talk about something kind of serious.

For people who follow me on social media, you may or may not know I had to put Roars down yesterday as the time I'm editing this.

So it is obviously, you know, it's a lot and everything. If you want, I wrote more on my thoughts about it on my

Twitter feed and the go-fund me page for when he got sick from before.

But I wanted to make a note in the episode because I know that he is a part of people's

enjoyment of this show.

People tweet me and they talk to me on Slack and say how they like hearing them come up and and you know people

I know that people are going to miss hearing him

the same way that I know that I'm gonna miss

missing a lot and in kind of every, you know, more than hearing him on the episode, you know, so I have a really long road ahead of me getting over this and it got me a lot. So I want to let everyone know for two reasons.

One is kind of selfish.

The one reason that's not selfish is again I know that people love him and you know he's the closest thing that network has to kind of a mascot.

You know, so I wanted to let people know because in some in some

small way like he's part of your eyes's life as well. And to let everyone know

just because I, it's going to be a lot of work to get over this and I mean never be over it but you know what I mean and I don't want you know

two months down the road for someone just to be like hey hey, I haven't heard Roars in a while,

and just immediately send me into the depression zone.

You know, so not that necessarily would, but I am being very cautious.

Pardon that text message I got during this, I don't want to

re-record it because it's hard. So I just want to let you guys know and also and one final

request is I appreciate people who do want to offer their sympathies

and thinking about me I really do appreciate that that means a lot to me I
