Well, hi there, Frendos. Welcome to a Wednesday afternoon edition of

TBTL show that's probably too beautiful to live. I'm your host Luke Burbank. If I sound chipper today

It's a completely affront. I'm exhausted. I'm rung out. I'm

I feel like I was in a car accident yesterday. You ever wake up in the morning and you just think

Man, did I

Did I enroll in some kind of a roadhouse-esque

Backroom bar fighting contest that I lost?

That's why I feel today, but

It's for a good reason. It's because last night was our first ever live presentation of TBTL

Union Hall in Brooklyn and it was a lot of work and

And I'm feeling it now, but it was totally worth it because it was a ton of fun and we met so many great people

The tens of listeners some of whom traveled from down the street and others who came all the way across the country to see this

also the guest lineup was so much fun and and everybody really brought their A games as it were

The show that we taped was like two hours long

So we're cutting it up into two sections. We'll play part one today and then part two tomorrow

Which will be convenient for me because I am going to be heading to Chicago to do weight weight. Don't tell me tomorrow

And so you will not be without awesome imaginary radio content

Trying to think if I need to tell you anything else about this show as a kind of preface

Um, I don't think so. Oh, you know what? I did learn in listening back to some of it that I think next time we will need to mic the audience

I realize that's why they do that at baseball games and stuff because if you don't have a mic on the audience then later on people listening

Maybe don't get as clear an idea about just how awesome all of your jokes were

Um, because sounds a little bit um, you know like you're kind of just performing for yourself
