The

The What's good. Thank you so much for tuning into this bonus episode of the newest Olympian. My name is Mike Schuber. I'm the titular Newst Olympian. You know the whole spiel, so let's just get into what you're about to hear this time. I've got three little updated deals, and then we'll get into the bulk of this episode. The first is specifically for people that want to see a live show in the UK. The second is about what charity we're giving to, because this is an off week. And the third is about what you're going to hear for the rest of this episode. So first off, very happy to announce that on very short notice, we are doing a live

show for the News Olympian in Manchester in the United Kingdom. So that's going to be on

September 19th, which is a Friday. It will be at 8 p.m. whatever Manchester time zone time is.

And it's going to be at the Droilsden Little Theater,

which is in Droilsden. But the internet tells me that that is still within greater Manchester,

and also that it's like a 20-ish-minute train ride out of the Manchester Piccadilly train station,

which seems to be a big one. I'm learning all the stuff on the fly. The tickets are not live

at the time of recording. I'm currently working with stuff on the fly. The tickets are not live at the time of recording.

I'm currently working with the theater to figure out if they can sell the tickets so that I don't have to deal with VAT and stuff.

So just mark your calendars for Friday, 8 p.m. local time on September 19th and just check over on the TNO social medias for whenever the tickets are actually live. You can go to the newslylympian.com slash live as well. And if the tickets are up and available for purchase, there will be a link to buy them. Otherwise, there will be something that says coming soon or something to that effect. That theater does live up to its name. It is a 100-seat theater. So it is on the smaller end.

So if you want to come through, come through. I know it's short notice, but Kelly and I are doing a

trip to the UK short notice. And I want to do a show in Manchester because it turns out I have

more listeners in Manchester than I do in London. So it's not fair that I went to London and not

Manchester when I did Torup in 2023.

My apologies, Manchester slash Northern England.

So I'm going to be doing a show there.

I hope you come through.

Now, the second thing, this is an off week for the News Olympian.

September is a five Monday month.

This is Labor Day weekend.

Feels like the best time to take off in the month of September.
