  3. Sam Harris· Host0:40

    Hey, good to see you.

  4. Jaron· Host0:41

    Yeah, good to see you as well. Before we begin, I just wanna run through a little housekeeping. I want to apologize to all those in Dallas and Austin this week for having to postpone our shows due to a family medical emergency. We have rescheduled those shows for May twentieth in Dallas and May twenty-first in Austin. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, but in time, I'm sure Sam will share more. I don't know, Sam, if you wanna say anything quickly now or if we should just move on.

I mean, I, I've, I've been to events, you know, my own events, where people have come up and said... I mean, I think I was... There was one in Vancouver or Toronto, and a couple came up and said they had traveled from Australia for the event, and obviously that's just amazing to hear
