What's up, everybody? Welcome back. As per popular request, Michael and I are going to sit down again today.

We're going to talk about whatever Michael brings to the table. And he often tells me that he's overly prepared and that he underwhelms me. And perhaps he underwhelms you. But man, what a wild juxtaposition between somebody two decades younger than me. And quite

frankly, I've actually come to really enjoy these Andy versus Michael series. I don't know what number

we're on. And what I'm thinking about doing occasionally, and perhaps let me know in the comments

if this is something you would want to see, I do fall out of Fridays where I sit down and I answer from my

perspective questions that are sent in. But perhaps given our two decades of difference in life,

I was thinking about bringing Michael in from time to time and just sitting down and answering

those questions collaboratively with him, not always, but occasionally. So it wouldn't really be

an Andy versus Michael. It would just be a full auto Friday with occasional Michael input. And I don't know how to abbreviate that

properly, so we'll have to figure that out a little bit later. But that's it. Now, stay with me.

Give me 90 seconds. Let's pay the bills here.

Ladies and gentlemen, this episode is brought to you by Peak. That's right. We're going to be

talking about tea. And if you know anything about me, you know I'm more of a coffee guy. Let's talk

about something real quick. I didn't think that tea was something that was a ecosystem that was

going to have a lot of evolution. Now, and I'm going to hold up this particular box. I've already taken the top off to save me time. This is the way that it shows up. It's in

these little satchets, which is way more convenient than traveling around with all the things

required. I mean, I guess it would just be a tea bag, but it's way quicker, way more convenient.

Boil some water up. They have this little stir stick.

This thing's kind of awesome. So this isn't your grandma and grandpa's tea. This is this is 2025T.

Now let's get into what the product actually is here.

Gut health is obviously incredibly important. That microbiome can drive a lot of different factors in your life.

And a year ago, I'm flat on my back. I'm in a hospital, getting my guts literally pulled out of my stomach. Not really an experience that I recommend.
