Hello and welcome to episode 179 of the Thinking Elsat Podcast in Vienna, Virginia.

This is Ben Olson.

With me in Los Angeles is Nathan Fox.

Busy, busy times these days, huh?

Yeah, it is very busy.

I was just getting off a call with the developers before we started talking or

recording this show and I noticed that you've been getting a lot of requests to

write out more written explanations for the Elsad Demon at elsad Demon.com so that's been

cool to see that develop. Yep I'm going to go to the world's nicest Starbucks, which is just blocks away from my house.

And it's the torrential downpour for these few days here in LA.

So I'm going to be inside watching the rain and watching all people at the world's

nicest Starbucks and just writing a bunch of explanations so it should be a nice day. So it's raining. I don't feel like that happens very often now.

It's been dumping rain it it's like we're sort of LA weather is sort of like you get the

monsoon season every once in a while it doesn't do it every year but when it

rains it tends to rain a lot like for just days. That said it did clear up for a couple hours

yesterday and I was able to go for like an hour and a half hike,

you know, in the middle of the day and take like amazing photographs of the sunset and stuff.

So it's still California, it's still Los Angeles, and it's still not ever freezing you

know so I'm bitching for no reason it's it's still pretty nice but no we do get

we do get sheets of rain every once in a while.

We get real big rain years and then we get just nothing at all for like four years in a row.

Yeah.
