It's your boy Chris hosted the Point Home Services podcast. And I see my good friend, my dear friend, sweet little chatty P sitting on the other side. Looks like it's a gloomy day out there in the great state of Indiana, Chad.
Chad Peterman (0:31)
It is pretty darn gloomy. I don't think the sun has shown today, so it's getting cold.
Chris (0:36)
It's actually the same here in, in Phoenix. It's rained yesterday and today and it's a little gloomy. And I have a long sleeve shirt on today because, you know, it's like 60, so it's nice and chilly here. This is an old shirt I've had for a lot of years and I put it on, it was a little tighter, so I. Getting fatter, I think. So there comes the fat face comment. If my face is getting fatter, why is getting fatter? Damn it. It's old age. It's the winter coat.

But then you have the current day operators of these, of these big businesses and Tony, and Tony's at. Tony's the president of Abacus Plumbing Plumbing. Plumbing, air conditioning and electric.
