You were listening to The Battery Ready Podcast. My name is Aaron McMannis and I'm here with my dad, Irwin, Raphael McMannis. It's good to have you, sir. How are you?

I am doing so good. I am wet and cold. This is false advertising from LA.

Someone just sent me a message and they said, you know, it's my dream to come to LA. It's so dark and rainy here in Scandinavia and I'm like, don't come right now.

It's better. And apparently it's going to rain for the next week or so.

Wow. And I would be upset except that we live in a drought zone. It's so good to have rain. It clears the atmosphere. It makes everything green.

It stops our trees from dying. That's why I'm excited that we have rain.

We are such fragile beings, menu. The environment affects us way too much. We're not made for this. We're made for sunny. We need to go to Miami, maybe.

What I think is funny is that my wife's executive assistant Jasmine moved from Seattle to come to sunny LA and she brought gloomy Seattle with her.

It's crazy. It's crazy. Because we don't ever get it. Your patterns aren't used to it. Like I was talking with New York friends.

In New York, if your rains or snows, you just still do life. You still go out to dinner and you still see people here. It's like, nope. This is an act of God.

I know. I have meetings today. I'm like, do I really have to go? I mean, I had to go from the house to the back house. You don't have to go.

It's the rain.

I had to go from the house to the back house and I said to my wife, Kim, can I borrow your car?

I had a funny thing happen last night before we dive in anything really serious.

I'm kind of a late night person. So I'm in the living room. I have headsets on watching some really bad movie with actors who are all my age.

So you know that they didn't spend a lot of money on casting and all of a sudden at 12 30 at night, there is a light beaming through the window next to where I'm sitting on the sofa.

It's one of those intensity flash. And what's going on?

Wait, hold on. What?

Yeah, there's a light beaming through the window from the outside into my living room.

You for sure thought they were coming for you, huh?

And I looked and there was a man standing at my window last night.

What?
