Sup you beautiful bastards.

Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco Show.

0:03.4

Quick reminder, this is the week of after shows.

0:06.0

Today is no different.

0:07.0

In fact, today I give you a little sneak peek

0:08.6

of the brand new set for the PDS,

0:10.2

calling it the lazy one because it's my work from home office.

0:57.2

trial because based on social media interactions America is reportedly more
