Oh my gosh, it's time for everyone's favorite part of the show.

Our pre-show announcements.

Woo-hoo!

First, let me take a quick moment to tell you about my next live stand-up comedy performances.

I'm going to be in Colorado Springs at 3Ease Comedy Club on July 21st and 22nd.

Again, that's 3E's comedy club in Colorado Springs,

July 21st and 22nd. We've got a bunch of live shows to tell you about in a moment, but first,

a little update on our listener tournament for 2023. For those of you who are eligible to register for the tournament, a whole bunch of you did, and we really appreciate it.

Registration is now closed. We did send an email out to everyone who had registered whose email that we have.

So if you did not receive an email this week from us and you did register for the tournament,

please contact Stacey, S-T-A-C-E-Y, MaximumFund.org, and let her know that, and we'll investigate

and make sure you get connected. We're going to have a lot of fun with this year's tournament,

and of course the winners get to appear as guests on the show. All right, Helen, how about

those live show announcements? First up on Saturday, August 12th at 7 p.m. at L.A.ist's

with our scheduled guests, Egoed Wodem from Saturday Night Live, and Alex Borstein from the

And again on Sunday, September 10th at 7 p.m. at the Center for Inquiry West in Los Angeles. And again on Sunday, September 10th
