Hey, wonderful's welcome to episode 384 of the JV club with my guest and friend, Baron Vaughn.

I have known Baron for many years and it has been so fun and wonderful to see his star just rise and rise and rise. I am so grateful to

those of you who were able to join up for Max Fun. I want to remind you that you can

always become a member whether or not it's the drive or not but we're not here to talk

about Max Fun Drive because that was last week and four glorious weeks in total and you are

all wonderful and we love you. So I'm excited for you to dive into this episode with This Boy of Summer and I am recording this

actually a few days early because my sweet and wonderful producer Julian is going to be off this week after Max Fun Drive for I can

only assume a much needed vacation.

He works so hard and I could not be more appreciative of him. I also could not be more appreciative of him.

I also could not be more appreciative of Chris Royce who,

as I have said in the past, was a listener who became a friend who became a co-worker.

He now runs he designed and built the JV club

dot org which is a beautiful website if you haven't had a chance to visit I

strongly encourage you to do so.

I use it, like I use it as a resource all the time.

I'm like, who was it?

Remember when I?

And he's done such an amazing job and he also runs the JV club Twitter, which is the JV club at the JV club.

And he is wonderful and I think there are many of you who are listeners who know that I love talking to you and I love getting to know you and in many cases it has been so fun to build deeper relationships with you,

whether it's collaborating on work stuff

or just keeping in touch via friendships.

I shout out to Shannon, who has really become the sort of like Diana to my Anne.
