Just indoor.

Like I said, I want to thank Jeff M, Gloria, and David also helping on both sides, YouTube and Facebook.
I want to thank all our members on Spotify that’s sticking with us from around the world. Apple, Google, iHeart Radio, Spotify, Pandora, and Amazon.
Hello, Alexa.
Also, our paid members that keep us going slightly. I thank you so much for what you can afford, for your support to keep things going. Streamyard, all the bills came in December.
It’s just like it’s going up like crazy, like from 179 to almost $400. So just the stream, Judy, just to have the stream.
>> Wow, John, that’s a a big up.
>> Well, that’s how they make their money.
You know what I mean, >> right? They’re sure making it.
>> So these little lollipops and things you see around my head cost me 400.
>> Oh good. And you can’t even eat them.
>> No, but can’t even eat them. Hello, K.
Franks, how are you?
Let me put these links up that my YouTubers moderators did. Thank you, Jeff.
There’s Tony Samson’s deal. I know. You got to do things for vacation. You got to do them now in January. You set it up for your summer vacation. You know what I mean?

>> Yep.
There’s the cruise master.
There’s Tommy.
There’s Erica.
I always thank everybody for what they do. Judy, you got it.
>> We got a good group, Joan, and everybody plays a part.
>> So, when some people PM me or email me, “Oh, you spend so much time on introducing everybody and why don’t you just get right into it?” That’s not my deal. Other people want to get right into it, you lose viewers, you lose this, you lose that. Ask me if I care. I don’t care. We’re like a whole family and a team that they know my protocol and that’s the way the ship loads.
Yes, John. And I don’t think we’d ever lost anyone over it either.
>> No. No.
But uh I got one little rant from last night’s show, guys. If anything bothered you on there, we do our little prelim before Judy says her synopsis. Hello. Wait. Austin.
Daniel says, “I’m feeling a rant coming on on the good ship lollipop.” >> First thing, please with these names, the blob, this that now.
Holy moly.
What the heck’s a peacock got to do with anything around here?
Who the heck comes up with this stuff?
Is Marty drinking too much wine? I I I just don’t get it. Well, we’ll just call this thing the peacock. Well, that’s a good name for it. I like to call it like BS if you can spell that all out. But, uh, peacock of all names. Peacock.
>> I don’t remember ever hearing that in the past. Has anybody else?
I couldn’t believe it. I thought, “Okay, I’m in I’m in the trance.” Okay. You know, 9:00 here in the USA here on the History Channel. I said, “Did he say peacock?” Uh, okay. All right. For what now? The little Bob, the big blob, peacock. It just don’t fit in to me. You know what I mean? It’s not smooth transition. You know what I mean, Judy?
>> I mean, exactly. It seems really um I don’t I can’t think of anything there as a peacock.
>> Hello MC Rock and then again Daniel and crew.
Now we know how the island was surveyed, scanned, you know, with Eagle Canada and the Holy Muion and every kind of machine in there and drill holes and port holes and holes on top of holes.
I thought to myself, as I’m doing some screenshots, let’s hold on.
Let me close my eyes.
Let me close my eyes and just listen to what they’re saying. Right. Not watching Judy. Just close my eyes. Right when they’re saying they’re saying the borhole H8B whatever and they’re going to put a sonar in there and we’re going to put a camera in there and all my eyes are closed now.
The vibe I got was like, are we back to season 1? Are we in season 13? Now, if you close your eyes and hear all that, it’s like we got nowhere. We’re right back to step one. What do you guys think?
>> Yeah. Yes, John. I agree. It’s just the same stuff all over again. Different spot maybe, but same stuff.
>> Hello, Meow. You know what I mean?
>> Yes.
>> And I’m just shaking and shaking my head.
Hey, Daniel just said season 14 is shifting to NBC. Are you teasing Daniel or is that real?
But uh you know, I mean, all that new technology absolutely did nothing because we’re right back to where we started. It’s getting kind of sickening, but even Rick had me in my own trance last night. You know the folded coin.
Okay.
But now you find something about evil spirits.
Okay.
Huh?
Evil spirits.
There we go.
>> Daniel says, “Release the evil spirits.” >> Did he? But it’s like, okay, like what do you you bury St. Joseph Italians on the side? You you bury a little St. Joseph statue when you buy a new house. You bury it in the lawn or you bury it in the garden, you know, for good luck. I remember that cuz when my mother came over, she said, “What are you doing with this little St.
Joseph’s?” You know, a small one, you know what I mean? Oh, we got to buried in the yard when you bought this new house >> and this and that. I said, “H okay.” So now this folded pounded coin is to swish the evil spirits away.
Then I open my eyes. I said, “We’re in 2025 going into 2026.
What am I doing?
What am I doing?
Holy muon. Lordy 40.
Got to find something that goes with peacock.
>> Hello meow me. It’s good to see you.
>> Yep. Lordy 40. Holy muon and something peacock.
If you think of something, put it in there. What do you think, Judy? You got anything?
Oh, >> nothing comes to mind, John. Um, how about a fake peacock?
>> Daniel, what do you got for Peacock? I know Daniel’s got something cooking.
He’s got to have it something cooking.
When he heard peacock, that’s got to be something.
>> He usually does.
>> Holy Peter Peacock.
No, that didn’t sound right.
>> Oh, this show’s killing me.
>> Oh, Cindy says, “Strutting peacock.” Yes, they do strut.
What does a peacock sound like?
Somebody YouTube see tell me what what what they yell or what the hell do they do? I don’t know.
Oh my god.
>> I can’t remember exactly how they uh make their noise, John, but I do know it’s very loud.
>> Well, I don’t know where they come up with this stuff.
>> You can’t even think of this stuff. You know what I mean? It just hit you, >> right? Yes.
But Eagle Canada, nothing. Muan, nothing.
5,000 holes, nothing. All kinds of scanners, 3D deep lidar, nothing.
Absolutely nothing. Nothing.
Oh, we might have find a new void. That whole place is full of voids.
Yeah. Carol says, “Yes, they yell loudly, piercing.” Yes, Carol. I’ve heard them.
>> Well, that leaves me out cuz my voice is too low.
>> Yes, it is.
>> Unbelievable.
All right, guys. We’ll have uh Judy get her wine ready.
>> Little margarita do tonight?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It’s Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve, whatever. Every day runs into the same day to me.
a piercing sound. Okay, glory would know that.
But how can we translate for 2026 now?
Crying me out. Okay, Jeff.
For 2026, guys, I got Holy Muan, Lordy 40, and definitely by the next podcast, I’ll have something for Peacock. Something with the island or something. All right, that’s the deal for 2026. That’ll be the new uh saying.
Okay.
>> Come up with something, guys.
>> All right, Judy, for the whole world to hear you the last time in 2025 is our queen of synopsises.
>> Judy, it’s all yours.
>> Thank you.
So guys, it’s season 13, episode 9, the last one of the year, and it’s called So Close Yet Sonar.
Episode 9 opens on a new day in the money pit area where the team is drilling new bore hole BN 13.5 in the area that Marty calls the peacock where traces of gold and silver have been found in the water. They have not drilled this area before and find the soil to be unstable, loose, and watery.
They keep drilling.
We move to the southeast corner of the swamp where we find Billy digging and Katya detecting. Katya picks up an axe cut fives five-sided stake that was still standing with three feet of soil on top of it. Billy says someone has dug here before and marked it with this stake. They will get Steve to pin this site. Later in the lab, the team is meeting to get the test results of the what they believe to be a folded copper coin found on lot five in the spoils of the round structure. They believe it to be a religious tradition that started around 1290.
The coin was folded with the evil or sickness inside. Then the owner would pray to the saints to get rid of this evil or sickness. Emma says it is a copper alloy and is folded three times which Lar says is unusual.
Emma cannot say it is definitely a coin.
She adds it could go back to the late 1600s.
So of course it could relate to the na who were known to do this. They decide to call in corn ex coin expert Sandy Camel to take a look back at the swamp as Billy digs. Patcha picks up what looks like a piece of hand cut planking or a piece of an ore. The find is near where the piece of ship’s handrail was found.
It will be C14 tested.
Katya finds another stake big around and eightsided like the ones found near the so-called vault and that seems a cobble cobblestone path.
As he continues to dig, Billy declares there was a ton of activity here. Back at the money pit, as they continue drilling bore hole BN 13.5, water erupts from the hole and they lose a core at between 148 ft and 158 ft. A core then comes up from 168 ft down. So they determined the void to be 10 ft and full of water. Adam from the drill team says they need to put sonar down to find out what is in the void. They will call in a sonar expert to take a look.
Meanwhile, in the research center, we find St. Campbell, coin expert, is examining the folded piece of metal. He says it is definitely a coin and has been folded three times, which is unusual.
Sandy dates it from 1600 to 1700 and points out it could be Christian in origin and the Templars did use this method. Doug says the date fits with the the time of the Knights of Malta. Could it be that they dropped this beast? Later over on the west side of the island, a unreata are detecting. The beeper goes off and Rick digs up what looks to be a knife handle made of iron. It has two square holes that Gary always says makes it old. They bag it. They then dig up what looks to be an old bag seal like that one found on lot five that proved to be British from the 1600s.
Rick wonders how it got here in the middle of the lot as there was never a homestead here and it is too far inland to have had water bring it here. They beg it. Episode 9 ends with the team meeting sonar expert Kore pit area where the they are getting ready to put sonar down bore hole BN 13.5.
They put the camera down first and after hitting water at 150 ft down. and see what looks like a wood beam, a wall, and a void. The wall is made of boulders upon boulders, so is manmade, and there is clearly a void. They put the sonar down, and it shows the void to be 2 feet from side to side. Craig declares there is no reason for an opening here unless it is man-made.
They will have the video enhanced so they can see it more clearly. Could this be the treasure vault questers? Join us next week for let’s hope an answer. And in the meantime, stay safe please everyone.
>> Very good. Very very good, Judy.
>> Thank you, Don. Thank you.
>> Little pokey tonight. Might be the margarita. I don’t know.
>> Doing straight shots of whiskey.
>> Yes, I should have had that.
>> There was Judy synapsis.
Hello, Marine. I see the hook came in.
Kathy came in.
>> Oh, hi Kathy.
Buddy >> and everybody that came in later. Hoping you a very good New Year’s Eve tonight and New Year’s Day tomorrow in case I miss it or just go blank later on. Don’t forget hashert. You only got two entries to get a certificate from me around the world. A quest certificate at the end of the year. The little number behind your certificate could be a winner for 50 rubles.
Any way you want it pretty.
I thought also I put in two uh videos.
The first one will be August. The second one will be uh September that we’ll play later just to uh see how far they got in August and September because right now we’re just seeing that one case on and they’re just drilling little holes around there and I got to see I got to see action. So I was wondering if it’ be okay guys if we showed a video from the past this August and September.
What do you think guys?
I >> think that’s a good idea, John. It will give us an idea how it’s changed right now, if at all.
All right, let me know how it comes out.
I’m going to press it now and uh tell me if you can hear it. Tell me if you can see it. Here we go, Judy.
>> Okay, >> then we’ll get into the screenshots of the show. First one, this is in August.
Heat. Heat.
Heat. Heat.
Heat. Heat.
They’re nowhere near the garden shaft.
I’m glad I picked this video. It’s a a longer drone video, Drew.
>> Yes, it is, John. But certainly, we’re seeing a lot of stuff that isn’t there now, >> right?
The other video is a short video. I won’t show that video. just this video here.
>> Okay.
>> God bless it.
>> Yes.
>> Me too, Scott.
>> I’m behind the candy canes.
>> Yes, you are.
What the heck can they do for next year?
You know what I mean?
>> I don’t know. I I don’t I don’t know either.
We’re getting overabundance of lab work, which I like, but you know what I mean?
>> Right. Yeah. A lot of it right now.
But same old same old surface finds that they should have done 14 years ago.
Tell me they can’t uh scan each one of these five acres, put flags in where they got hits.
Nothing moved on top of the island that I that I know of.
And Scott said, “Go down to ax.” Yes, Scott.
Yeah, we know Daniel.
>> Doing a little overdubbing.
>> No, it isn’t.
Okay. Thanks, Joan.
>> Yes. Scott says they need to tell us what the blue item was they found. Never did tell us.
>> Well, that’s just to show people that there was a lot of action at the end of September and August. like normal.
>> Yeah. Yes.
Yeah, this K sign’s way over.
There’s the shed. Imagine living in that all winter.
Oh, >> I can’t even imagine.
I think of Mrs. Rexstone John. I often wonder how she did it when she lost so much to Oak Island.
>> Mhm.
>> I think she was a real hero.
and that was it for that. I just wanted to throw that in there to show the action that has been done on the island instead of just seeing that one case on in there and just poking holes around.
So that’s why I showed that and I thought it was pretty good to show that.
I don’t know.
Yeah, I think so, John. Um, and most of that stuff was off the island by the first week in November.
>> Yep. In and out.
>> Yes.
>> So, like Judy said, here we go. A new day belongs on Oak Island. They start at the money pit. You can see here, you know, absolutely nothing but them drilling around with choice drilling.
So, that’s why I wanted to show you that video to see Well, towards the end of the year, but right now it’s blah time. You know what I mean?
>> Yes, it sure is.
>> In the lab.
>> Blob in the lab. Blob. Lot five.
Here they are at the sausage table.
200 ft deep. the lay area BN3.5.
There it is. The peacock.
Then I was thinking the blob looked like a blob. You know the science fiction movie the blob. You know what I mean?
Like a big piece of jelly blobing.
>> Yeah. Yes. Guys, does that outline look like a peacock?
What’s that? What’s that outline look like? If you drew that on a piece of paper, what does it look like?
>> I don’t know. A person’s foot and leg.
I don’t know.
What do you think, guys?
>> Just draw it on a piece of paper. Tell me what you think.
The Maltese falcon.
I don’t know where the peacock is. It says the blob. The you got to put the in there, >> right? Playground says looks like the Oscar award statue >> or Yeah. Hello Neil and Rick. A Rick. A hook. A hook. A rook. A chest piece. I don’t know. It’s driving me crazy.
Then we got Mud River.
Back to the swamp we go. Finding lots of stakes. Six-sided, four-sided, eightsided stakes. Oh my lordy. 40. I’m going to have a breakdown. We’re finding stakes in the swamp. Oh my lordy lordy.
There’s a four cuted piece of wood. Wow.
Unbelievable.
>> It is, John. We’ve seen so many of them.
>> Back to the lab. We’ve been in the lab already too many times. Don’t forget certificate. We only got four entries that we’ll raffle off at the end of the show. There’s the folded coin. And lo and behold, there it is on the 3D scanner.
Trying to push it back and connect with who? The Templars. Who else?
>> Right. Always.
>> You know how many people had this on them? If it was a tradable thing in the island, a lot of people, like they said, just a voyage over. you would pray to make it or don’t get sick on the voyage over from Europe to Nova Scotia, you know, probably, you know, half of them died, you know.
>> Right. Exactly. I’ll bet a lot of the the sailors and the people in the military carried them.
>> Yep.
There’s our lot five.
Back to the swamp for more stakes.
There’s another piece of planking.
God, we need planking. Boy, do I need a planking.
>> Well, datas are not.
>> Now, we got to get some carbon dated testing on this stuff. There’s a couple There’s a couple of grooves and a hole and uh could have been a paddle.
Let’s hear it for paddle.
Yes. Could have been.
>> Hey, look at that. More stakes in a swamp. Why would you put stakes around the swamp if you have oxen? Oh, I don’t know. And if you took the fence out, like I said before, you would throw them all in one pile.
>> Yes.
>> But who knows?
>> And like Scott said that the those are fence posts that have brought it off.
>> Yeah, >> I think he’s right.
And there’s a look back.
God, I don’t want to see another fence post or actual. Please dated. So it’s old. So the swamp was open. There was no road there. The swamp caught everything from the ocean in the bay. Just going in there for hundreds of years. What do you think’s going to be in there?
>> A lot of stuff.
>> A lot of catch all. Yep. Daniel, they always show that one with him with the steak coming out of the swamp. I must have saw that 500 times when they’re showing Oklahoma.
>> Yes.
>> And with and with Fred Nolan. There he is with a steak coming out. Police in 2026.
Give us a break.
Peacock.
Holy.
Uh people threw junk in there as well into the swamp, right?
>> Well, yeah. If you had land to clear, where are you going to throw it? You’re going to throw it in the swamp. The What are you going to do with it?
You throw it in there.
>> Right on.
There they are at the sausage table.
Deeper in the peacock area. That sound pretty adultery to me.
Yeah, it sounds really weird.
>> Here they are. They got a core.
The rest just sort of spit out and they lost the core. So, they had to put another core in there. Yes. Hook. A huge debris field is a swamp. The long longest or lowest part of your land. And if it’s mucky, that’s where the junk goes. That’s me. I don’t know about these other people, but that’s me.
>> Daniel says that Fred said the swamp at one time was a dump for residents and treasure hunters.
>> Even Rick doesn’t know if there was a house foundation on lot eight. Daniel, is there any way we would know about any kind of foundations on the whole lot?
>> Anybody that made a foundation on any lot that we don’t know of?
Hello, Franklin. Thanks for coming in.
>> Hi, Franklin.
>> On New Year’s Eve.
The treasure in the peacock area.
Wow.
To the research center we go.
There he is.
Sandy Campbell, you think the LAR would show foundations, Gloria?
>> You would certainly think so, John.
>> A square like they do the Amazon jungle and all of a sudden they see a square here and a square there. You know what I mean?
>> Right. Yes.
>> I don’t know.
>> Yeah. Those are always interesting to see. I don’t know what they’re doing, but I’m saying after 14 years when you first got the permits, I would do lot one, then lot two, whatever you own. Go through that lot with a fine ce fine tooth comb.
So, you don’t say like Rick and uh Katya were walking and they find the uh bag tie. We should have found that 10 years ago, >> right? Exactly. Not now. 2025. What? Are you kidding me?
Back to lot five.
Potential lot five. Who knows what it is? It’s all the storytellers. You know what I mean? When they get all this stuff and it goes to California. Well, which way are we going to try to sway the people to?
Templars, Vikings, you know, >> right, John? Yeah. And it always seems to go the same way.
>> Y >> um especially towards the end of the season, we end up with Templars every time.
Uh Neil, we don’t know where the peacock drilling quesan was during the uh past summer. Uh wouldn’t know that what location it was. I understand what you’re saying.
Maybe Daniel knows.
Then we found this crazy looking thing.
Square holes mean old. It’s all I got out of that.
>> Yes, that’s what Gary says.
>> This is them binding.
>> Bag tag.
Franklin think that looks like an old uh um a can opener. And it does, too.
>> Yep. Yep. We’ll see what this bag tag relates. Of course, they’re going to push it at the early early stages, as you know, guys, their protocol, but it’ll say what it says on the design when Emma figures it out. We can’t deny what Emma says because it’s right there in proof. You know what I mean, Judy?
>> Right. Yes. I’ll be glad when she uh gets to test it.
>> There’s our Soner expert looking real excited.
Uh Daniel says that Sandy likes being on camera and always works Templars in his analysis.
There they are. First they’re putting a camera in there. So at least they’re doing protocols that we think they would do, Judy. Okay. First goes the camera, then goes the sonar to plot it out. So at least they’re doing that. You know what I mean?
>> Yeah. Thank goodness. Maybe they’ll get somewhere.
>> There was the first picture. Well, can’t make nothing out there.
There’s the second picture. Well, not a There it is coming up a little clear.
Rocks on top of rocks. But who knows when the drill’s going down there if they hit a ledge and the rocks just piled on each other as they’re drilling their 6-in sonic drill vibrating like crazy and if anything’s loose is going to fall. Right.
>> Right. Exactly. It’s just not clear enough. Maybe their enhancement will help.
>> In fact, in the middle, I see a I see a Templar cross in the middle.
>> Oh, yes.
I see that, too.
see what you say.
>> Take a look at this picture, guys.
>> Yeah.
>> Look in the middle.
>> I see where you’re >> Look in the middle and then just look up a little bit.
I see a Templar cross right there. What do you guys see?
>> It sure looks like it, John.
Don’t know if it is, but like it. You’ll get us all going now, John. Oh, >> you see what I’m saying?
Yes, exactly.
>> They got me in a trance, you know, the the Oak Island crew. They got me seeing things when I shouldn’t be seeing things. So, I blame all them and production. So, if I’m in a mental institution, I blame all those people in California for my mental state. Holy muon. Templar cross right there.
>> There you go.
Oh, Franklin says he sees it, too. And uh Playground says, “I’d like to believe it. I see it.
>> It’s always got to be cloudy.” >> And Scott says, “The head is looking left.” >> Yeah. And it’s always got to be cloudy.
It’s like all the UFO things and all that, the aliens and all that. It’s always cloudy. It’s too far away. The Bigfoot, it’s always blurry. You know what I mean? Come on.
>> Right. Right. We need something clearer.
>> Nothing clear on all these millions of phones. They’re all clear unless you’re jiggling it and stuff, but you can’t get one good craziness. You know what I mean?
>> Right. Exactly.
>> Here’s the sonar shows. Oh, there’s an opening there.
There shouldn’t be an opening. What happens, Julie, in lime and water? What happens? It makes >> voids.
Yes, exactly.
>> The limestone rots away and boom, there’s number 850 void.
>> Especially if that water is moving >> right there. It is. Like I said, when I was in my trance, I said, “Well, we’re back to season one, episode one.” All the way back. I can’t take it much longer, but we’ll see what they come with.
All right. Now, we’re going to have Raymond doing his thing on Daniel’s analysis.
I got to cut it down to 2 minutes and 13 seconds.
So, we’ll see. Judy, let me know if you can see it or the group. Let me know. I’m going to turn it on right now. Ready, Judy?
>> Okay, I’m ready.
>> Daniel’s analysis and commentary. During this week’s episode, the Oak Island team was working in bore hole BN135.
When the team put the camera down the bore hole, it was speculated that this could be a man-made structure they were seeing on the video. It should be noted that this bore hole is very close to the garden shaft. It also falls within the area previously known as the blob. Many bore holes have been put down in this area and the garden shaft itself was deemed to be too dangerous to continue working in with nothing further to investigate. A tunnel was running through the garden shaft. So people were definitely working underground in this area. Although none of this information was relayed in the episode. What were people doing underground in this area that is known for precious metal readings? Some of the C-14 testing results state that this activity preceded 1795. What was going on? A treasure deposition. Logically, it would seem to suggest that a mining venture was occurring in this area. If precious metals had been detected by someone, it would provide the motivation for such a venture. Were precious metals recovered in any great quantity or just trace amounts like we see now? It is impossible to say with certainty, but it provides a more realistic possibility than a cache of treasure being buried, decomposing, then floating around under Oak Island. In this author’s opinion, what we see here are natural geological features that have been accelerated due to the intervention of man. Over time, the cast landscape is developed naturally, but this was aided by the activities of man on Oak Island. In the past, this was interpreted falsely by people not familiar with natural geological processes and spun into a treasure narrative. In this author’s opinion, although this author believes that the underground workings were used for various purposes after the initial mining exploration, what seems to be a mystery to this author is that professional geologists involved with the show do not relay this information to the general public and allow the explainable to be characterized as fantastic and extreme.
Good day and happy new year from the compendium.
Daniel and Charlotte, the Oak Island Compendium C 2025.
>> There you go. Thank you so much, Daniel and Charlotte.
>> Thank you, Daniel.
And I will read it again.
>> We got six entries for certificate. Last call for certificates.
Just got to put Clear.
There we are. We got seven entries.
Judy.
>> Oh, good. Good.
That’ll be it probably.
I got to get going.
>> Good luck. Good luck everybody.
>> Here we go. Three, two, one.
There we be.
Salsbury. Our cruise member has won a certificate. Congratulations, Scott.
>> Congratulations, Scott.
>> And we would like a picture, please.
There he is.
I’m here. He says, “I see you.
I see you.” All right, Judy, if you want to say your goodbyes, I’ll say my goodbyes and uh do what I have to do. We’ve been on for about an hour. I got to get upstairs.
>> Okay. Hey everybody, thanks for joining us on this New Year’s Eve. And uh I know that many of us this year have had some tough times and I know I got some tough times ahead of me in the new year, but I know every Wednesday night I’m going to be here with John and all of you and that makes my life good. I thank you for all of your encouragement throughout the year and I hope that all of you will stay safe. Join us next week on Wednesday.
And uh I love you all very very much.
Good night, John. And happy new year, everybody.
>> Yep. Same to you. Same to you.
>> Bye-bye.
>> Okay. Well, next week, January 6th, Tuesday night, we got episode 10, Boulder and Wiser. We’re looking under the boulder next week.
Again, happy new year to everybody. Uh tonight, have a good New Year’s Day tomorrow. Whoever celebrating, you guys are the best in 2025 and 14 years before I mean 13 years before that. Now we’re going into the 14th year. Oh my lordy.
40.
Holy muon.
Well, what do I tell you members all the time? What do I tell you?
Right. What do I tell you?
Always go forward. You may get a setback in your life, but just believe in yourself.
Believe in your dreams no matter how old you are. For tomorrow was never given.
Never. In this crazy crazy world we live in. The world needs a ton of prayers right now. Mostly every day. So you keep on smiling. You stay safe. Like Judy says, you stay strong and you keep positive energy within you. Get that negativity away. Stay positive as much as you can into the new year. If not, there’s a lot of professional people that can help you reach your goals.
Thank you for joining me and Judy tonight. I hope you enjoyed the show.
We’ll see you Wednesday, January 7th for a live podcast. If anything comes up, I’ll let you know.
Also, take care and bye-bye.
Heat.
