Just props to Miguel’s wife. When Miguel said hey, guys I’m recording and she just fired back I don’t care and the daughter (I presume teen) just starts cackling. It’s so fun to hear you guys on the podcast but realize your just regular people with normal families with standard issues but you guys talk about great topics and talk to interesting people. I appreciate all you guys do thank you
Thanks man!! And thanks for listening.
