Hey, everybody, welcome to the 10th anniversary episode of The Blister Podcast.

I'm Jonathan Ellsworth, and you can check out everything.

We're doing and reviewing over at blisterreview.com.

would have had to edit a conversation that was probably 13 hours long.

So please, to all of the guests that we've had over the years, forgive me if some of our

conversations do not appear here today. Also, listeners, if one of your favorite conversations

isn't referenced here today, I will

apologize to you too.

kind of bring together that were pretty representative of what the 10 years of conversations on this Blister podcast

have looked like, as well as what some of those conversations have led to.

Now, one thing before we get started here, I wonder if I could ask you all for a bit of an

anniversary gift, because this is driving me
