On Juneteenth and Tilapia

Juneteenth is having the best week ever...and I have some thoughts.

P.S. I recorded this the day before I was given Juneteenth off, as a holiday. So, if my wonderful administrators are listening, this is not a response to your Juneteenth sentiments...it's more of a premonition of a cultural wave. I swear.
