Hey, it's me, everyone on Earth. If you're listening to this when it comes out, that means April

0:04.0

Fool's Day is approaching, and we, as all of the people on Earth are saying, don't do an April Fool's joke. Just don't do it. The world doesn't need it right now. You know what the world needs? It needs you to keep listening to this episode of this podcast. Before we continue my first ever journey through the Harry Potter series, just a few quick announcements. Hey, what you're going to listen to is a live show. It's the Grand Rapids live show where Johnny and I did a bracket to determine the best spell in Harry Potter.

in Harry Potter.

0:24.0

It's a very fun time.

0:24.9

And the announcement that I have that's related to this is that there's more Potterless live shows happening in a city near you if you live in one of the cities where we're going. So we will be doing shows in Washington, D.C., Seattle, Washington, Phoenix, Arizona, Indianapolis,

0:38.0

Indiana, Chicago, Illinois, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Minneapolis slash St. Paul, Minnesota in the

coming months. That's what we have booked up until the end of June. There will be some things

0:47.4

announced later that will be happening later in the year, but those aren't confirmed just yet.

0:51.3

So if you want to go and get tickets and learn more about where exactly the shows are, when they are, all that, you can go to potterlesspodcast.com slash live and get tickets. It's going to be a fun time. I'm very excited for all of these shows. And speaking of Seattle, in addition to doing the Potterless Live Show on April 21st, I will also be doing live shows with my old improvised hip hop troupe, a tribe called yes, on the 22nd and the 23rd, and April 28th through 30th. If you go to bit.ly-slash-U-Y-S-H-U-B-E-T-R-I-B-E, all overcase, you can get tickets. And if you search for a tribe called yes opening Night on YouTube, you can watch this performance.

So if you're in Seattle and you want to check it out and see what it's like.

1:29.6

Or if you don't live in Seattle and you want to see me do improvised hip hop, I'm very good. You can go and just find it on YouTube. It's a very good time. Now, if you don't live in one of these cities, I'm very sorry. I'm trying to do more shows. I'm trying to do shows outside of the U.S. as well.

1:25.8

It's just really hard right now, given the world.

1:27.6

But hopefully in the near future, we can make that happen.

1:41.4

We're on the second book right now.

1:42.5

It's very fun.

1:43.2

It's a very good time.

1:44.1
