'''Myke Hurley:''' Awesome. Beautiful. Wow. Love it. This episode is brought to you by Factor. Your routine can take a real hit over the summer with school vacations, travel. Brad, I feel like anything can, anything is possible to knock my routine out of whack right now. Yeah. Literally waking up. Let me give you something that actually did just completely upend my week. Uh, so we have like, um, glass doors, you know, like there's like, I don't even know how to call them, like glass doors to the garden, right? Okay. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Sophia smashed one of them like two days ago. Ooh. That's scary. She threw a wooden ball. Well, we believe she threw, she's going to throwing phase. Yeah. And there are wooden balls. There was clearly an impact point. No one saw her actually do it, but it was very obvious that she did it. I think. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And it's safety glass. It just did the like, but the whole thing is just like shattered. Everyone's fine. But now we have this constantly moving glass, you know, it's like all the time. Oh, yes. And it's going to take two weeks for the glass to be replaced. So like now we just have this like constant threat in the house.

'''Myke Hurley:''' So, you know, that will upend your, your week.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Do you have caution tape? Do you have caution tape around?

'''Myke Hurley:''' We currently have like, like a. A blockade. A clear sheet covering the window, but we're going to replace it with card. Like an unfolded cardboard box. It's a double pane window. So the, you know, we're not going to be like, even if it did come down, we're not going to be exposed to the elements. But that, anyway, things like that, right, is what we're talking about. Come up in your routine.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, I've got my own from today, but, you know, we don't have to go into that. We can maybe follow up afterwards.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Okay. Well, the good news is Factor makes it super easy to get back on track. They make chef crafted, dietitian designed, ready to eat meals.

Cool. Brad, is there any meals that you've enjoyed recently from Factor?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Well, actually, no. And I'm just realizing this. So I think my last order was like July or something. And I'm like, oh, I just realized that my son is away at school now and is no longer going to be stealing my food. Okay. So like I might even go for premium, Myke. They have some like, you know, you can upgrade like some of the proteins or some of this. You know, I usually get things like I'm actually going through the menu right now because I need to place an order. But like on the premium menu, like lemon butter steelhead trout with spinach, zucchini, and tomatoes. Like, come on, get out of town. But that's just, I usually just go for the regular ones like the mushroom chicken thighs. That was my son's favorite one to steal, I think. Okay. I would get like the Creole shrimp and smoky cheddar grits. I'm actually going to build a cart. We need to get this in because I'm actually excited that I get to eat all the Factor meals this time without any thievery corporation going on here.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. Last thing on factor. The one thing as I'm literally scrolling through this drooling, there's no bad choices. A lot of times with these things, like you're a little bit more limited and you're trying to squeeze in, well, I'll just get two of this because I don't really like anything else. Yeah. That's not the problem. That's not the problem here. The problem is limiting yourself. So it's really good. So anyway, thank you, Factor.
