and My name is Cooper Greenberg.

Chris: 00:11

Thank you so much, Cooper. We're back and, people have been wanting us to come back for a long time. We're back in the new format. This we were just having a discussion. This is episode 19 of this podcast, but, we're gonna call it season 2, episode 1.

Cooper: 00:24

Is this actually the 19th one?

Chris: 00:26

It's actually the 19th one. But I wanna call it a new season because everything's different now. It's it's like when Saved by the Bell went to the college years.

Cooper: 00:33

Mhmm. You

Chris: 00:34

know? It's a different set. It's a different thing. We're doing it, both for recording if you are listening to this on, an audio podcast, but you can also check it out on our, YouTube channel because we're filming it. And we're filming it at a cool locale.

Chris: 00:47

Chris: 01:29
