April showers bring May flowers. It's been rainy here, so hopefully that's the case. It's been rainy and warm, which is nice.

Not here. Sunny and breezy. It's been beautiful.

54.648 - 82.848 Ryan Alford

Yes, it's been good. Our weekly business news. We're going to hit all the headlines. Try not to talk too much about tariffs. I never, Chris, I never imagined tariffs. That I would have a moment in my life where I use the word tariff in a sentence as often as I have or read it. Definitely not weekly. I know. I don't know if it's a sign of my age, a sign of the times, a sign of the way news is.

83.568 - 84.789 Ryan Alford

Is it all of the above?

84.809 - 88.131 Chris Hansen

I don't know. Maybe lack of all of the above.

89.191 - 116.153 Ryan Alford

Yeah. I'd rather talk about a lot of other things, that's for sure. I know. So we're going to attempt to do that. Some of the market data is not wonderful, but I think it's early in the season. I think there's some cooling going on of all the banter a bit. I think... The reality is we live in a world where you're never going to get the straight talk.
