All right.

Yeah, I know.

Okay, so I'm just recording this for the benefit of Speak Pipe, which is hosted on the Dumty

Dum website. Now, Dumpty Dum is a fan podcast for Archer's listeners.

Ironically, it takes longer each week to listen

to that than it does the entire omnibus.

But one fantastic feature that they've

been plugged into the last few weeks

is that they've been really kindly promoting this conference and so you know we

wanted to sort of say hello back. Now on a and so on. Now we believe that this might be the largest dump-to-dum that has happened.

I'm hoping actually that people listening on the live stream will by now have directed

their browsers to dump-dum dot com, opened up speak pipe and

be ready to sing along also in the hope that the presenters can then splice together

this kind of multimedia-media, very hyper-digital post-truth-dy-done.

So...

It's fake news.

None of this is really happening.

We're all a figments of your imagination.

So fine, for the benefit of Dumpty Dum listeners, for whom I'm obviously recording, we're at the

Archis, Academic Arches Conference in Lincoln. It's the most fantastic Friday and Saturday that I've had in a very long time and it's not even 10 o'clock in the morning.
