Well, hello everyone. It's Morgan here and welcome to today's episode. I just want to let you know

0:05.7

about a slight technical difficulty with this particular episode. I think I was sitting a little

0:10.9

bit close to the microphone, but I think I managed to get out most of the thumps, if you will,

0:17.7

if that's the correct word. It's something that may not even get picked up on every speaker,
