Summary
We’re a day late and I’m in New York City! Travel delays made me push this a day but we’re back for a nighttime hang! I’ve got emails from listeners, we’re celebrating St. Patrick’s Day and Sloppy Joes, plus I tell you the story of The Thailand mystery about the disappearance of Jim Thompson in 1967. And as always, I read The Tribune! Bonus after the show for Midnight Air supporters, I talk about the movies The Brutalist and Flow!
Thank you to Aaron Brungardt for engineering, mixing, and production expertise, Geoffrey Tice for artwork, Bobby TBD for theme music, and All Things Comedy for their support, production, and distribution.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Midnight Air with me, Daniel Van Kirk. Look, I'm going to say right out the gate. |
| 0:23.3 | I know that it's a day late. So what happened is yesterday I was supposed, well, not supposed, |
| 0:29.1 | I flew to New York and my plan was to record the Midnight Air in New York. Flight schedules |
| 0:36.7 | and things being where they are, |
| 0:38.0 | and then show times and the fact that it took me |
| 0:41.9 | almost two hours to get into the city from LaGuardia, |
| 0:45.6 | it just didn't happen. |
| 0:46.8 | So I'm sorry, but I am doing this right now. |
| 0:50.4 | I'm doing this week's midnight air from New York. |
| 0:53.6 | I bought the equipment to be able to record |
| 0:56.2 | on the road. Two reasons. One, just like this, I want to be able to do midnight air wherever I'm at. |
| 1:01.4 | And then also, because I'm looking at a second mic right now, I want to be doing the interviews with people who are pet pals or dump people tell listeners |
| 1:15.4 | or midnight air listeners and have an interesting job. |
| 1:20.6 | And so I'm on the road right now and this is the first step in me sort of being mobile with my recording. |
| 1:29.2 | I guess I'm probably pretty late to that game. |
| 1:32.1 | But sorry for the delay in the midnight air. |
| 1:35.2 | And once I'm done with this recording, |
| 1:37.2 | I'm going to figure out how to take that file, |
| 1:39.6 | put it with the music and make sure I can upload everything |
| 1:42.6 | to our wonderful friend, Aaron, over at |
| 1:45.8 | All Things Comedy. So even if I screw any of this up or it ends up not having any music, |
| 1:50.0 | just know that you deserve better, but my heart was also in the right place. |
