Summary
This is a micro-episode to talk about our forthcoming meet-up in Washington and some other stuff.
Our Washington, DC meetup for fans of the podcast will be on Tuesday, April 11 at Aslin Beer Company, 1740 14th St NW. 5:30-7:30. I’ll probably arrive earlier than that to grab a table. Send me a note if you’re coming!
The other stuff is mostly my reflections on the podcast, how much I appreciate you guys, telling the ugly parts, objectivity or not in history, and why I don’t provide transcripts.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the History of the Americans podcast episode 111.1. |
| 0:12.7 | I'm your host, Jack Heneman, and I'm recording this micro episode on April 7, 23, |
| 0:20.0 | National Beer Day, in addition to being Good Friday, in New Orleans. |
| 0:25.8 | We are telling the history of the lands now encompassed by the United States from the beginning |
| 0:31.0 | without presentism. The main purpose of this micro episode is to give you the details on the much bellyhooed |
| 0:39.7 | first ever meet up of fans of the podcast. |
| 0:43.1 | The date is next Tuesday, April 11th. |
| 0:47.8 | The place will be Aslan Beer Company, 1740 14th Street, Northwest, Washington, D.C. That looks like roughly the corner of 14th and |
| 0:58.8 | S Street. The official start time is 5.30, but if you can't get there so early, rest assured that I'll |
| 1:05.8 | be around until at least 7.30 and certainly as late as the conversation remains fun and interesting. I trust many of |
| 1:13.5 | you will recognize me from my photo on the website or on Twitter or Facebook, but in case not, I'll be |

| 1:32.2 | I do not expect a huge turnout, but I know it will be a learned one. I've already been promised to toast to Sir Francis Drake. There may be more than one. |
| 1:40.0 | Sadly, we will not be drinking out of mini barrels crafted from the wood from Magellan's gallows, |
| 1:46.3 | as Drake's own sailors were able to do, but I'm sure we'll have a good time anyway. |
| 1:51.9 | Tuesday, April 11th at the Asland Beer Company, 1740, 14th Street, Northwest, Washington, D.C. Friendly reminder. Be there as your schedule allows, |
| 2:03.6 | and if you do plan on coming, it would be helpful to send me a note at the History of the Americans |
| 2:08.9 | at gmail.com or via the contact page on the website, the history of the Americans.com, |
| 2:14.6 | or by direct message on Twitter or Facebook or something, just so I have a sense. |
| 2:20.5 | This also seems like a good time to thank you for your support and all the five-star reviews |
| 2:26.8 | you've written and emails and notes you have sent, not to mention your recruitment of other |
| 2:32.5 | listeners on Twitter and the best way by telling your |
