| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, how's it going and welcome to another episode of the SBL podcast. I think we're here with |
| 0:05.8 | episode 28. I can't believe we've done 28 of these. And today I'm lucky enough to be sitting down |
| 0:11.3 | with Adam Ben Ezra, who is a double bass player, composer and multi-instrumentalist. You've probably |
| 0:19.4 | seen his amazing YouTube video where he's playing the |
| 0:24.6 | track that he wrote called Can't Stop Running. It's beautifully filmed. There's a dog in the video, |
| 0:30.7 | which as a dog lover makes me, you know, like the video even more. But it's been watched |
| 0:35.8 | millions and millions of times on YouTube. |

| 1:16.8 | to mention it just so you don't miss the early bird offer we're going to have going out at the |
| 1:23.2 | beginning of July. Essentially, we're going to be taking digital online magazines really to the |
| 1:30.3 | next level, obviously, within the base niche. I'm not going to do it. You know, fishing magazines, |
| 1:35.1 | not so much. But in terms of, you know, did you get it? Bass? Bishing? Fish? Well, bad humor, |
| 1:42.5 | I suppose. But anyway, I-Base magazine is coming into the Scots Bass Lessons family. |
| 1:47.4 | Our first issue is coming out the 1st of July. It's going to be a super exciting issue. We've got a crazy, crazy cool cover artist. |
| 1:55.5 | And for anybody on the early bird list, you are also going to get a killer offer, okay, killer offer, but it's not |
