Hello and welcome to the Modern Maker Podcast for Thursday April 9th, 2020, otherwise known as Name Yourself Day.

Wow.

I guess that's a day where you pick a new name for yourself?

That's not that great of a day day I think this is a more important

week because it's a I believe it's one of our favorite makers birthday week Jimmy Derestes.

Oh, shout out.

Should we all say happy jimme dereste.

Happy birthday Jimmy dereste.

The Godfather.

Happy B. D.

Yeah, he really is the godfather of making on YouTube.

He is an extremely nice guy.

I will say that I've only met him in person, I think three times just at the three work bench

cons. And like, I honestly have no clue if he knows who I am or like has ever seen one of my videos but regardless of that like he always like makes conversation and you can just see he's like genuinely nice to everybody who comes up in contact with him and he's the kind of guy that definitely forms a crowd around him.

I always, when people ask me what he's like, I always say he's exactly what you wanted him to be.

Like he lives up to the expectations. Yeah he's not playing a character. Right he is is that eccentric, he is that charismatic, and he is that nice.

Kinder words have never been spoken. Exactly. So what are you guys been up to?

Yeah, what's going on? How's the bus going?

Is it raining in Joshua Tree?

It has been for the past couple days, but that's okay.

I'm locked down.

I've been in edit mode.
