So, Sagar, I hear you have some news for everyone that explains why we are finally uploading this episode at 9 a.m.

Instead of our normal early morning time.

Yeah, that's right. For you early people out there, notice I didn't say risers because that name is now banished from my lexicon,

which is that crystal and I have left the hill. This is our crossover episode. The realignment meets crystal Kyle and friends where Marshall and Kyle interview both crystal and I about why we decided to leave the hill.

Our new project, which is called Breaking Points, you're going to find out a lot more about all of that.

And really, it's just an awesome way for you to get to hear all four of us just discuss the future of media, what crystal and I are up to,

and some awesome, interesting new trends that are happening in the business.

We're going to get to the episode because we know you guys are all here for this.

But we have another set of slightly smaller but incredibly important news for a diehard set of you.

We have finally set up our website. It's the realignment.fm. It's in the show notes.

And most importantly, when you go to the website, you can go to a store where you can actually purchase the mugs that we first promised you all nine months ago.

We're so excited for this. This has been all part of our stepping everything up with the breaking points launch coming.

We hope all the hints we've been dropping have finally led you all to something here.

And most importantly, if you are one of the, I think eight to 10 people who we offered free mugs, we have not forgotten you.

Your emails are buried somewhere back in the fall.

But if you could also just follow up and send us a quick email and note that that'd be very helpful.

And I do want to make sure you get your free mugs.

We honestly, people coming in and saying they wanted to support the show that way is exactly the type of thing that brought

Saga and Crystal got them excited for going independent like this. So we use our one supports realignment listeners.

Here's the deal, especially you early people go to subscribe and rate their podcast.

Go and subscribe to the YouTube channel.

Our whole goal here is to get this thing trending, especially in the politics and news categories incredibly competitive.
