Hi.

We have incredibly exciting news starting on Monday, August 14th. You'll be able to find all new episodes of armchair expert free on Spotify and

everywhere you get your podcasts. But in the meantime, we decided we wanted to revisit a few of our favorite episodes over the last couple of years.

Yes. In case you missed them, these are the ones that we thought were worth re-airing before we go wide on August 14th. Please enjoy.

get his head. Yes, the way he processes the simplest interactions. And he seems to have the craziest experiences all the time. Yes. Yes. Yeah, he does a lot of late night walking and he meets all kinds of characters.

He's wonderful. So please enjoy David Sidaris.

He's an awesome.

He's an awesome.

Alrighty. Can you hear me? I can hear you. Can you hear me, Doc? Oh, yes. I am so excited to talk to you. Can we give our
