I really have fun doing live broadcasts and after some investigation, tiktok will be a better platform for me than youtube. If you are interested in being part of this regularly schedule weekly live broadcast, please follow me on tiktok - I am @scooby.1961. I need 1,000 followers to get my live broadcast feature enabled so PLEASE follow me even if you are not sure you will be interested.

My landlord after looking at my bedroom said here lives a 7 year old. I'm 52.😂😂
