Kira:   Hey, Rob.

Rob:   Hey, Kira.

Kira:   Happy 2020.

Rob:   It's always a little awkward starting these when we don't write an intro for ourselves to read about ourselves. But this is an episode where we don't have a guest. We're just going to talk amongst ourselves. Yeah, let's do it. Happy 2020 to you, too.

Kira:   Yeah, it's been a while since we've chatted and recorded it, even though we chat just about daily. So let's talk about some podcast episodes that were our favorites from 2019, some of the top most downloaded episodes, some of the ones that have resonated the most with us. But first, let's just catch up a bit. What's been new with you, Rob, since, I don't know, last time we recorded anything? I don't know what episode that was, but it's been a while.

Kira:   How has it changed? How is it different at home?

Rob:   It is a lot quieter. I miss my sons when they're not here. Obviously, my oldest son comes home from college quite a bit. And so, he's around. It's great having older children, but I definitely miss the rowdiness. I didn't ever think that I would, but I do. I miss the noise and the rowdiness. On the other hand, it's a lot quieter around here, and so I'm able to get more work done during the day. That is awesome.

Kira:   Yeah, I'll send Henry. Henry can spend some time at your house if you need some extra rowdiness. He'll bring that.

Rob:   I will take him any day. We can hang out and do Lego and whatever. So what big changes happened for you?

Kira:   So the biggest change for me over the la...
