Welcome back to the Blister Podcast on the Blister Podcast Network.

I'm Jonathan Ellsworth and you can check out everything we're doing and reviewing over at blisterreview.com.

And a couple of quick reminders here. First, we are in the process of wrapping up our big new winter

buyer's guide. And if you would like to be sent a print copy of the guide and get access to all

of our blister content and get personalized gear recommendations from us and get exclusive deals on gear, then you definitely should

become a blister member, you know, for like those four reasons I just outlined. We'll include

a link in the show notes to this episode for you to check out, or you can go to the navigation bar

on our website where it says says become a blister member.

You can sign up there, you can get a lot more information, go check it out.

Now another thing, registration is now open for our Blister Summit, which is taking place in February

2022, and if you don't already know what this is,

then you should definitely click on that link in the show notes to this episode.

All right.

Third thing, over on our Gear 30 podcast this week,

Matt Manzer is back on.

It's kind of an epic episode.

We go once again, way down the rabbit hole on ski boots.

There was a bit of whiskey involved, which a number of you actually have written in to say,

we need more whiskey consumption to be happening when Manzer and me get together.

So those of you who feel that way,

I promise you, you're in luck. And for all the rest of you, I don't know, I'm sorry. Anyway, it's a fun one. You're going to learn a lot if you check out the episode and can handle the two of us.

But that's this week on Gear 30. That'll drop Friday.
