I Overheard a Secret Chinese Meeting in Micronesia on Vacation

We had covid the entire last month and a half, that's why we've been away. It sucked. Sorry for that. Hope we can make up for it with this small island gossip.

I am just now noticing there's an extra p in the end credits. Like in the word swimming pool. Also I say that Palau was part of the FSM but the group they declared independence from was then called the Trust Territories of the Pacific. Apologies.
