Hi, it's Larry Herbexbox's major Nelson. Welcome to the official Xbox podcast. We are audio only this week, Jeff. Hello there.

Hi, how's it going? We're doing this again. Yeah, we did audio a couple of weeks ago, and I'll explain why in just a minute. And then joining us also is Kelly Lombardi. Hi, Kelly.

Hi, so excited to be here. We had you on video a couple of weeks ago, and now, you know, you're so good on video with Jeff and I, we decided just to do audio. No, it's actually a technical issue I ran into with my with my recording PC, but Jeff and I and Kelly, like, well, let's just do audio.

Get the show done so we can talk to people and have some fun. So welcome this week. There's too much good stuff. We couldn't take the week off, but I do I do have a backup PC that we're going to bring back so you can see our lovely faces next week.

But it's yes, Jeff. I can just hear everyone shaking their head like, you know, now we prefer just not seeing you. Well, there is. So just be clear. There's a lot of people on YouTube. We have a lot of folks watching on YouTube, but a vast majority of folks listen on podcasts like Kelly.

Do you listen or watch the podcast? I assume you listen, right? I typically listen when I do watch usually like clips on TikTok rather than on YouTuber things like that. So I watch kind of like highlight reels.

But, you know, I've always said I have a face for radio. So I think that doing the audio only podcast is great this week.

You know, it's interesting, Jeff. We have not talked about this, but Kelly turns out Kelly and I when we were working on the fan fest thing a couple of weeks ago, we found out we're both native New Englanders.

Oh, so we were all.

I don't know what to say. Stombs are coming. Like I would like a cliche thing to say to New Englanders. Well, it's interesting is because I'm from Connecticut, Kelly, you're from Rhode Island.

Rhode Island. And the difference of a Rhode Island accent to a Boston accent is you don't think it's different. It's wildly different. Yeah.

You dropped your accent, by the way.

I did. Yeah. With lots of effort and time.

I, when I go back home to visit, it comes back so quickly, like I'll talk to someone on the phone and I'm like, you know, dropping there's not an R in sight. I'm just like, how's it going over there?

And where do you put your like, are you?

So anyway, there's also something interesting because I have my sisters in Rhode Island. When you were growing up, and Jeff, I don't know if you know this, but in Rhode Island, a big thing is coffee milk.

I'm sorry, what? Yeah, Kelly, would you explain it?

Yeah. So coffee milk, I actually have a huge jug of autocrat coffee syrup in my fridge right now.

It's basically like how you would make chocolate milk, strawberry milk. It's basically just milk with syrup mixed in. And Rhode Island also fun fact.

I don't know if it's still true, but as of a few years ago, it has more coffee shops per square mile than anywhere in the world.

Yeah, but they're all Dunkin Donuts.

Well, a lot of them are Dunkin Donuts able literally have like two Dunkin Donuts on opposite sides of the street right across one another so that you don't have to cross traffic to get to your Dunkin in the morning.
