Welcome to election profit makers, your guide for winning and losing money on estate sales and used records.

My name is Kid Midas, the original mansion lurker, and I'm joined on the line by my old friend Long John Silver.

John?

Hey, David. How are you doing?

Well, I'm doing okay.

We have much, much to discuss, my friend.

This is not going to be a regular episode.

We're not going to talk about contemporary current events or our infernal predicted portfolios.

This entire episode is devoted to the solution of a mystery that has bedeviled me for

low these many weeks concerning an estate sale I went to and a record that I found at set

estate sale. I have devoted an inappropriate amount of time to untangling

this web of intrigue, and I'm ready to present my findings to you, John, and to all of our

listeners. I am so excited. So this started right at the beginning of the month, and then it

has just progressed. Each week,

we've learned a little bit more. And I thought last week when you brought home some incredible

stuff that we had pretty much reached the conclusion, but that you're telling us is not the case.

That is not the case. I am going to tell you for the first time the truth of the matter why Ed Schofield was in possession of the second LP by the Australian Garage rock band, The Sellebit Rifles.

But John, if you're up for it, why don't you present what we know so far?

Okay. Well, this all began with you going to an estate sale of a man named Edward Schofield, who was apparently not an important guy, but a guy who had

written a bunch of letters to Reagan, offering him advice during his presidency.

Lots of advice.

Yeah.
