Pushkin.

One thing I like to say about your heavyweight podcast is that it always inculcates a high vibrational frequency.

From Pushkin Industries, I'm Jonathan Goldstein, and this fall, the return of heavyweight.

The new season will be bigger than ever.

Bigger hopes.

I keep waiting for this moment.

When he says, Mom, I get it.

I'm sorry.

Bigger dreams.

He's like, Tom Hanks wants to meet with you.

This is a real chance.

And bigger heartbreaks.

I thought it would be my movie moment.

And maybe he would even whisper in my ear, I've always been in love with you.

We bring you the story of a big budget movie built on a lie.

A centenarian who falls head over heels with a love lost 80 years ago.

How can a 101-year-old woman fall in love again?

And a 14-year-old boy who wanted to change his life by robbing a bank.

And so I

pointed the gun at him and said, this isn't a joke.

And he got down.

And I remember feeling kind of a surge of like, okay, this is power.

Plus, my old friend Gregor is back.

and he and his brother try to solve my problems through hypnotism.

We could give you a whole brand new thing where you're like super charming all the time.

Not always hide behind a microphone.

Starting September 18th, I'll be hiding behind my microphone like a sneaky but well-meaning weasel in the bramble when heavyweight returns.

Okay, Mr.

Goldstein, said the old lady to the young man.
