All right, quick. Safety check. I've got my passport. Do you have your passport, babe?

I do, but it's expired. Well, that's not promising. We are heading to Canada to a better place,

a place with Justin Trudeau in charge where the soup dumplings flow like what's

something that flows too much here right now. That seat belt signal?

Trump's tweets. We're heading north. That wasn't good. Well, sorry, okay. Still early.

You're about to get us killed. Here we go.

No, this is going to be an inauguration free zone. Let's do this.

All right. Just a status report here on what's happening. We are currently heading north on

Interstate 5 about, I don't know, maybe 30 minutes from the Canadian border. Our ultimate goal is

the town of Richmond, British Columbia. I didn't bother to look up how you actually get there.

I just figured we'd follow the drinking gourd. Feel for the moss on the north side of the trees

and head for freedom. So that's what we're doing here on this inauguration counter-programming

edition of TBTL. Welcome to the show, everybody. It's episode 2,299 in a collector's series.

My name is Luke Gerbank. I am your host. In case you missed yesterday's program, we wanted to do

something different today. I wanted to personally not get totally caught up in the inauguration stuff.

And so this seemed like as good an idea as any. To head up to Canada to eat some soup dumplings and

just take our minds off of things for a day, I will say again as I did yesterday that we are coming

back. This is not my announcement that we have officially decamped from the United States.

But for today, this feels right to me. Thank God though, we still have one freedom fighter

who is working from inside the U.S. His name is Andrew Walsh. He's the Hodor of podcasting and he's

currently at the offices of Walsh Walsh and Dormat in the Wallingford neighborhood of Seattle,

Washington. Hello, my dude. Hey, is it over yet? Has it happened? Is it 2020 yet?
