Isi:
[0:33] Happy New Year! I'm back.

Mitch:
[0:37] You say that like you're surprised.

Isi:
[0:39] I'm back. Yeah, I haven't been in the podcast for. .. (Two episodes. ) I mean, I did the Aftershow. Did anyone hear it? Dear members, did you hear the Aftershow? I did the full Aftershow. I hope people listened to that. And did, also, that I did also do the Christmas icebreakers, in my isolated COVID room. Yeah, I had COVID, it took a long time it's still not completely gone. (But now?) Do you still hear my nose? And my... what do you mean now a new year? COVID doesn't care about years change.

Isi:
[1:43] And my broken body.

Mitch:
[1:45] And you've mended your broken body.

Isi:
[1:48] Yeah.

Mitch:
[1:48] To cheer you up, and to make you feel a bit better and to welcome you into the new year we have a new year's, themed, episode. And plus, we have some messages from fellow listeners, they could be pranks, they could be butt-calls, but we will play them.
