Hello and welcome to the Everything Electric podcast. Very excited to introduce today's guest.

Not really a guest because he's one of the family.

Elliot Richards, who's in Shanghai at the moment with his gorgeous three babies, who stayed up extra late to record these

episodes and who also, I will point out now, this was a technically very difficult episode

to record. And I think it's down to a very, very old set of earbuds that I've got that

do something to, I don't even know. I have no idea. It's way

above my technical pay grade, but it's screwed up. So this episode comes in, it's in one thing

for you, but it was made in three different sessions for us. So if there's any repetitions,

that's possibly one of the reasons. And also, it change in clothing because we recorded it over more than one day.

So it doesn't, it's irrelevant to the topics we cover, but that was just to explain what was happening.

So it was a technical challenge, which I think we've now solved, which is a great relief.

I just want to say that the next show

is in Vancouver very, very soon, everything electric Vancouver. And after that, which is

interesting. I've just heard today, I shouldn't really go on about it too much, but I'm very intrigued.

We're doing everything electric at Farnborough, just outside

London, in the UK. And I've heard that our ticket sales are very, very good. They're much

higher at this time, at this stage before the show than we would normally expect. That could

partly be down to the fact that we have now recorded two episodes of a new show called

Zapheap, which is like scrapheap challenge like I used to do, except it's with electric

batteries and motors. We're doing the tests live at those events in October at Farnborough,

October the 11th and 12th.

And they're going to be either, they're going to be spectacular regardless,
