| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, welcome back to Gear 30 on the Blister Podcast Network. |
| 0:11.2 | I'm Jonathan Ellsworth, and you can head over to blisterreview.com, where you can now find |
| 0:18.1 | the brand new digital edition of our 2021 Winter Buyers Guide. |
| 0:25.0 | Plus, you can also head over to BlisterReview.com to order your very own print edition of the Buyer's Guide. |
| 0:32.6 | And little known fact, Cody Townsend, who happens to be our guest today, Cody has only read |
| 0:40.3 | one book every year for the past six years, and that one book he reads is the Blister |
| 0:47.9 | winner buyer's guide. It is literally the only book he reads anymore. And as you heard him say at our Blister speaker series conversation, |
| 0:57.9 | his favorite movie is Dumb and Dumber. So I just imagine that Cody goes from sitting around |
| 1:04.7 | watching Dumb and Dumber over and over again to then picking up the buyer's guide and then he just |
| 1:10.5 | reads that. And then he goes and skis |
| 1:13.2 | a gnarly peak and then he watches dumb and dumber and then he's back to the buyer's guide that is |
| 1:17.7 | a hundred percent true probably anyway the guide is out and many of you have already received your |
| 1:23.9 | print edition of the guide and there is still time to order your own print copy |
| 1:29.6 | if you haven't yet. You can also become a blister member, and I'm going to tell you at the |
| 1:35.2 | very end of this episode, a big new reason why you probably want to become a blister member if you |
| 1:42.5 | aren't already, so stick around for that, or just go become a blister member if you aren't already. So stick around for that or just go |
| 1:46.5 | become a blister member right now. And then the last thing I'll say is the buyer's guide is really good, |
| 1:52.7 | plus it doubles as a super sick coaster for your drink. And speaking of drinks, well, we had a few during this conversation. Okay, |
| 2:04.0 | that said, we also have a first here because never before have we had one guest on three of our |
| 2:13.7 | different podcasts in a single week. Truthfully, I can say that given the range of different conversations that Cody Townsend and I had, |
| 2:23.3 | while he was in town last week, we could have easily put out like 20 other podcast conversations. |
| 2:29.6 | I swear, the guy really is impressive, and there were moments where I was just trying to keep up |
