You won't miss a moment if you drink wise. Episode 22, Series 11, a weirdly scheduled program today, Thursday afternoon, all to do with your diary, Craig Couches. And as I look across, I see you in person. You look tanned and tired, if I can say that.
Craig Hutchison· Host0:30
Yeah, that's fair. How are you, Damo? Nice to ask my voice too. It's been a busy few weeks, but good to be back, landing back this morning. Oh, this morning? Yeah, fresh off the boat. What a World Cup it's been. in the United States and plenty happening here. And yeah, we had a lot of feedback and emails around the car situation. So to our audience, we've been a little bit slow on responding. Yeah, there was calls for an emergency pod.
Damian Barrett· Host0:53
Well, we twice got in the diaries with a specially convened pod to be recorded, but you pulled out both times, actually. Yeah, it's been a hectic scheduled day, mate. But anyway, it's nice to see you. We'll get serious. You've changed my seating here this morning, so I don't know why you've moved me, but you have. I got told where you normally sit, the headphones don't work, so it's got nothing to do with me. There we are. It's your studio. I'll leave that with you to mop up. After the event. We will get to the Karl Stefanovic off the top in a moment. But before I do, I am jealous with what you've been through, Hutchie. So last I believe I spoke to you, you'd gone to the England game in Dallas. Yep. You either had already gone to or about to go to Seattle
