Andrew: So, Harp 1. What’s new with you? How was your day?
Harp: Ah it was pretty good. Life’s good, it’s pretty boring. What about you?
Andrew: Yeah, you know what? I had a pretty busy day today. My parents and my sister, they’re all coming to visit me in a couple days actually. So I’ve just been cleaning my apartment and getting it ready for their visit.
Harp: That’s exciting is it the first time they’re coming to visit?
Andrew: Um, nope. This is actually- this will be my sister’s second time and my parents-my dad’s third time and my mom’s second time. So they’ve been here before.
Harp: Ok, so are you going to do some of the tourist stuff 2? Or what are you gonna do with them?
Andrew: Yeah, you know, we’ll probably hit up all the tourist sites 3. Maybe grab 4 some dinner and just hang out and spend some time together.
Harp: That’s nice.
Andrew: Yeah, it’ll be fun. I’m looking forward to it.
Harp: Cool. Alright, so let’s get down to business. Today we’re going to do a Chatterbox episode 5 and that’s where we chat about different topics, current 6 events, sometimes we interview people. We just talk.
