[0:28] Clucky: Good morning, Kitten. I am so glad your set is fixed and now you are back out in the yard with us. I didn't like having to wait so long for Maddox to let you out. What were you doing all morning? Sometimes it was 9 a.m. before you even came out.

[0:49] Kitten: Clucky, haven't you ever heard of sleeping in?

[0:53] Clucky: Sleeping in what?

[0:55] Kitten: Well, your bed.

[0:57] Clucky: Well, of course, I sleep in my coop every night.

[1:02] Kitten: No, Clucky, like stay asleep past sunrise. Don't get out of bed right away.

[1:11] Clucky: What? That is crazy talk. I need to check the perimeter and do my exercises. And then I need to wake everyone else up with my crowing. Cock-a-doodle-doo!

[1:23] Kitten: If I slept in, everybody would sleep in.

[1:26] Clucky: Exactly. We would all get to sleep in.

[1:30] Kitten: Well, that would be chaos.

[1:33] Clucky: Or utopia.

[1:35] Kitten: Utopia?

[1:37] Clucky: Utopia. It means paradise or heaven.

[1:41] Kitten: Are you telling me the reason that Maddox didn't let you out till later in the morning was because you were sleeping in?

[1:50] Clucky: Well, not every morning. A lot of times we would wake up and Maddox would read while in bed and pet me. Sometimes she would also tell me stories or just whatever was on her mind.

[2:02] Kitten: All this time I thought you were captive, trapped inside. And you're telling me you like staying in so late?

[2:09] Clucky: Kitten, you wouldn't believe how much I've learned. Maddox and I read so many books. Did you know that Maddox and Xander are on summer break?

[2:18] Kitten: What's summer break?

[2:20] Clucky: Summer break is usually the break from school that Maddox and Xander have between changing grades. This year was different. The schools were all shut down in March and did not reopen.

[2:30] Kitten: Now that you mention it, Xander and his family have been home a lot more. Usually they leave on these things called vacations. And while they're gone, a lady named Suzanne comes and stays to take care of us and the beasts.

[2:43] Clucky: You know, dogs.

[2:45] Kitten: Yeah, yeah, dogs. She's super nice and she always gives us extra worms and corn. She also makes the most incredible rosemary bread.

[2:55] Clucky: The smell fills the house and she usually makes extra for us.

[2:59] Kitten: Of course you would remember someone because of the food they make.

[3:03] Clucky: Oh, Miss Suzanne is more than just good food. She is a calming presence for the beasts.

[3:09] Kitten: I mean dogs. She takes them on lots of walks and I'm sure they bark less when she's here.

[3:16] Clucky: I have not seen her in ages, come to think of it.

[3:19] Kitten: That's unusual. The family usually leaves often on trips all over.

[3:24] Clucky: I don't think they've gone anywhere since you moved in.

[3:28] Kitten: You are right. I've never met this Miss Suzanne. However, she does sound wonderful.

[3:34] Clucky: Oh, she is. Oh, rosemary bread.

[3:39] Kitten: Meow. Brock, why do they call it summer break?

[3:44] Clucky: Huh?

[3:45] Kitten: The break that Xander and Maddox take between grades. Why do they call it summer break? Seems like level up or upgrade break would be a better name.

[3:55] Clucky: Well, I think it's because it happens during the summer season.

[3:58] Kitten: Season? What's a season?

[4:00] Clucky: Meow.

[4:02] Kitten: A season is characterized by a particular circumstance or feature.

[4:06] Clucky: Brock, say what now? Are you even speaking English?

[4:10] Kitten: Meow. Oh, Clucky, just because I use big words does not mean you are incapable of understanding them.

[4:16] Clucky: There you go, using big words again.

[4:18] Kitten: Incapable.

[4:20] Clucky: I guess I know what that one means. It means not capable. But you could have just said you are able to understand this.

[4:27] Kitten: Meow. Let's take a step back and make this a little more fun.

[4:31] Clucky: Oh, a song? I always understand better with a song.

[4:35] Kitten: I thought you might.

[4:38] Kitten: There are four seasons that bring us weather changes. Seasons bring rain and sun that makes the flowers grow. But in the cold months, there is sleet and ice and snow. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. There are four seasons in all. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Now you can name them all.

[5:19] Kitten: Winter's December, January, February, temps are cold and bleak. Be careful, you could freeze your beak.

[5:26] Clucky: Brock, frozen beak?

[5:29] Kitten: Not to worry, in March we thaw. April showers bring May flowers. Summer's hot and sun shines down in June, July and August. Plants grow big and days go long. Then along comes fall. September, October and November. Leaves and temperatures drop and we're all thankful for the great crop. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Now you can name them all. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall. Oh, look, I named them all.

[6:16] Clucky: Yeah.

[6:19] Kitten: You go, guitar guy.

[6:22] Clucky: Winter, winter, spring, summer, fall. Winter, spring, summer, fall.

[6:52] Kitten: Winter, cold, spring things grow. Summer, hot, and fall the leaves drop.

[7:05] Clucky: Wow. Now I have so many questions.

[7:08] Kitten: Yeah, really? I thought I did a pretty good job of explaining those seasons.

[7:13] Clucky: Yeah. First, where in the world are you talking about? Because Florida has like 2.2 seasons from what I can tell.

[7:21] Kitten: 2.2 seasons?

[7:23] Clucky: Yeah. There's the hot season where it's sunny most of the time. And then there's the hotter season where the temperature rises and there's afternoon thunderstorms. Then there's about two weeks where the temperatures get super cold. Like 40 degrees and it rains iguanas. That's the .2 season.

[7:43] Kitten: Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.

[7:48] Clucky: I guess that song would have been confusing to someone born and raised in Florida.

[7:53] Kitten: Well, most other parts of the country experience these seasons. Florida is a bit of an exception.

[8:00] Clucky: A bit?

[8:01] Kitten: Okay. Florida does not exactly experience the seasons like the rest of the country.

[8:06] Clucky: I'll say.

[8:07] Kitten: Kitten, kitten, where are you?

[8:13] Clucky: Wonder what all the fuss is about.

[8:15] Kitten: Meow, meow, over here. I hope everything's okay.

[8:20] Clucky: Kitten, there you are. I just had to find you. I have news.

[8:25] Kitten: Meow.

[8:26] Clucky: Mom just told Xander and I that we are not going back to school, but we are going to be home doing something called remote learning.

[8:33] Kitten: Meow.

[8:34] Clucky: I'm not sure how I feel about it. I miss seeing my friends.

[8:37] Kitten: Clucky, did you hear? More time together.

[8:41] Clucky: The ADHD club versus remote learning.

[8:47] Kitten: I wonder if Mom will let you hang out with me while I'm in class.

[8:52] Clucky: Zander, you know that won't happen.

[8:56] Kitten: Why not? I bet she'll let Kitten hang out with you while you're in class. Why not, Clucky?

[9:06] Clucky: Really, Zander? That is very different. Kitten just lays next to me. Clucky will be up crowing and searching for bugs. Mom won't let him in the house because he's not a house pet.

[9:18] Kitten: It doesn't hurt to ask. Who knows, maybe we can make this work out, buddy.

[9:26] Clucky: I'm going to go ask. That would be the best part of this.

[9:30] Kitten: Even if you can't attend class, we can still have recess and lunch together.

[9:35] Clucky: Lunch? Oh, he said the magic word.

[9:39] Kitten: Mom, where are you? I have a question for you.

[9:43] Clucky: See you soon, buddy.

[9:49] Kitten: Oh, boy. I'm going to follow and see what Mom has to say. I'm sure she will let you attend some classes with me. I'll let you know.

[9:58] Clucky: Wow, meow. I wonder how the mom person's going to handle this. I'm excited that Maddox won't have to leave for school every day, but something seems amiss.

[10:09] Kitten: Brock, you mean something seems awesome? Zander said the magic word, lunch.

[10:14] Clucky: Brock, that means he comes out and he shares food with me. I get to taste all kinds of things.

[10:21] Kitten: What could be bad?

[10:26] Clucky: I'm not sure, Clucky, but as fun as it is to have Maddox and Zander around more, something feels wrong.

[10:35] Kitten: I'm going to get to the bottom of this. Maybe I'll go ask Rubix.

[10:39] Clucky: Rubix, the hamster of doom?

[10:44] Kitten: Are you sure you can trust her responses?

[10:47] Clucky: Rubix lives in Maddox's room all the time. She hears things.

[10:51] Kitten: Yeah, the crazy voices in her head telling her she must escape and rule the world.

[10:58] Clucky: Kitten, I told you that.

[11:01] Kitten: Yeah, but why would you want to talk to her?

[11:03] Clucky: For two reasons. One, she is lonely and needs a friend. And two, she also hears a lot of what's going on. Now, she may interpret it wrong, but she's a good source of information.

[11:15] Kitten: Well, good luck.

[11:17] Clucky: Thanks. I will get to the bottom of this mystery.

[12:13] Kitten: Oh, Clucky, this joke was sent in by our loyal listener, Londa, from Oregon.

[12:19] Clucky: Okay, I'm ready.

[12:21] Kitten: Why did Beethoven get rid of his chickens?

[12:24] Clucky: I don't know. Why?

[12:27] Kitten: Because all they would say was, Bawk, bawk, bawk.

[12:35] Clucky: But that's not a good reason to get rid of chickens.

[12:38] Kitten: Okay, Clucky.
