I'm

.

. Hello, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Midlife Gamer podcast. It's conference call time. And for those you who don't listen very often, a conference call is our way of

saying, we're not going to do a normal show. We're not going to give you news. We're not going to

give you charts or anything like that. It's an opportunity for Matt and I just to hang together,

have a good old chinwag, and basically shoot the breeze for a little while. We may talk about

games at some point, I suspect, but I would like to put

this show forward as an effective second part to the earlier conference call, the last piece of

content that went up where Matt revealed to the listeners and myself that he was going away.

He went to, he went off to Norway and went to see the Northern Lights.

And I'm talking like he's not here.

Matthew, say hello.

Oh, hello, Darren.

I absolutely did make it back.

Yeah, yeah, I'm glad you did.

I'm glad you did.

So without further do, ladies and gentlemen, hang in there.

Well, I'm told there are many interesting things that are about to be discussed because Matt and I have spoken on and off during the week and he says, dude, I've got so much to tell it. I can't tell me anything. I want to wait until the show. I want to have it, I want to have it cold and hot all over my face the same as the listeners.

So, so Matthew, I really want you to, uh, to hold nothing back and, uh, and give us everything.

I want chapter and verse on your, on your amazing escapades to Norway, which is incidentally not near

Germany.

No, it's not.
