Hello, everyone. Welcome to the program. Support comes from Z-Biotics. And let me tell you, this bottle has become part of my routine anytime I know I'm having a drink. It's called Pre-Alcohol. It is the first genetically engineered probiotic designed by PhD scientists to help you avoid these rough mornings. When you drink, your body creates a toxic byproduct right in your gut, and that's what makes you feel awful the next day. Z-Biotics helps break that byproduct down so you can wake up feeling normal. First time I tried it before a long dinner with friends. I took my Z Biotics first, drank responsibly, enjoyed the night, and the next morning I was up early and ready to do the work, getting the work done like nothing happened.
It really does work. So if you are heading to holiday parties or nights out, bring Z Biotics with you. Go to zbiotics.com slash lemon and get 15% off of your first order with the code lemon.

OK, I'll just say that I'm not happy with them. Seven hour delay, almost eight, then a cancellation, then no rebooking, no accommodations, no nothing. Now, I got to tell you, that would never happen to me on Delta. All right. So I'm a Delta guy. I love Delta, but didn't fly Delta because friends wanted to fly United. And the worst customer service I've ever dealt with with an airline. I just I have to be honest. And waiting the the website, the customer service calling. I mean, I was on the phone for two hours on hold, never got anything. So and here's the weird thing that we need to talk about. Perhaps I'll do this. I'll dig into it at five o'clock. Remember when. You know, Pete Hegseth, who was the transportation secretary, all of my friends were texting me going, hey, do you miss the gay transportation secretary yet?
You know, the one they called a DEI hire, the one who tried to take care of all of this stuff as it relates to airlines and reimbursing passengers to making sure that they're accommodated. Remember that guy? And then the Trump administration came in and got rid of them, got rid of all that, that we're supposed to reimburse you. Yeah, so I'm missing Pete Hegseth today. Yes. Pete Buttigieg. What did I say, Pete? No, Pete Buttigieg. Sorry, not Pete Hegseth. Sorry. Pete Buttigieg. Because the subject of our, we've been talking about Pete Hegseth this morning.
