Hello everyone, I'm Hank Patterson. Modern day Bob Cratchit, Ghost of Christmas Drunk,

Fly Fisher, Camper, Hiker,

I'd love to lay in a hammock,

and host of this show, Hank Patterson's Outdoor Misadventures.

Now, before I begin, I'm going to go it hold on

Hold on I got it. Oh shit that didn't make any I well I'm cracking a beer I'm opening a beer but it didn't it didn't make a lot of noise so So here I'll tink it against the mic

grue phone. And so today I thought you know I should have a beer. So I woke up I had a

PBR earlier I had an Oscar Blues Hot Box coffee porter because I love dark beer and that's a

fantastic beer and I saved it for a special occasion and today right now is Christmas Eve

Ho-Ho you're welcome and and so I thought you know I should probably crack that beer that I've been saving and I've also had a couple I had a Deschute's Jubal

because Kevin brought some in and he left him here on accident and then he called me and he's

like hey don't don't drink the jubilals that I left there and I was like dude I'm not gonna I'm not gonna drink your beer and he's like seriously

Hank don't just promise me that you won't drink my beer and I said I

Kevin I promise I won't drink your beer and so I drank I drank those already and so

those are gone and and he's gonna stop by later and be looking for him but I'll be gone by then because

it's Christmas Eve why am I even here on Christmas Eve so let me begin this

podcast by saying this is not a podcast. Okay well okay

hold on so it it well it is a podcast but let it's not an episode so let me back up let me say that

uh this podcast is not an official episode of the podcast. We will not be having an official episode this week

because we thought that we should spend time with family and and friends and then I

remembered that none of my family or friends invited me to do anything on Christmas Eve.
