Hello, everyone. Welcome. This is 372 pages. We'll never get back. I'm Mike Nelson and with me.

Hey, Connor Lestoka. What's happening, Mike? Good morning. Good morning. How are you?

I'm good. You know, it's, uh, it's, winter's eking out its last gas pier and the, uh, crack of the bat and the smell of the grass is soon approaching for baseball season, so it lies on the prize.

That's true.

An announcement about that, we're going to be seeing some baseball soon.

You and I, but when are we going to be doing that?

Well, it's going to be April 10th, not to confuse everybody, because we're seeing the Twins game in Minneapolis the day before

our live show, which is on April 11th. That's right. April 11th, we have the like trees

walking, 372 pages, we'll never get back, combined, I don't know, are we going to fight on

state? We'll do something. We'll make some sort of spectacle live in Minneapolis at

Sisyphus Brewing. We're going to assemble into two fifths of a giant mech and then snap power lines

across our chest like Godzilla. And then as we storm the audience, we're going to split into two

columns. What are we doing, you'll say to yourself. You won't know. Anyway, this is the show where we talk about the work of Ernest Klein. We have talked about Ready Player 1. We are in the middle of Armada. We'll get to that in a second. But first, I want to, we're joined by a special guest. Did you know this, counter We have a special guest today. Oh my God.
