Hey guys, welcome to the show at SciNotChadTalkingFirst, because I need to remind you, if this is the first episode you've ever listened to, I think you're gonna like it.

But it'll make more sense if you go listen to previous episodes, because we have some running through lines and a bunch of jokes.

If you've listened to a bunch of these episodes, thanks. We appreciate you. Hit me with the dates, Chad!

Hi guys, this is Chad Daniels. You may know me from my high school year CD White.

I am so lame to say out loud. Listen, I'm just gonna give some quick January dates here. On January 9th, I'm gonna be at the Mercury Ballroom in Levekentechie.

Levek!

One of my favorite. Robert Hawkins is, will always be in my top five comedians forever. He's absolutely fantastic.

He used to do this joke about he landed in Louisville and he goes, it's nice to be here in Louisville and he goes,

Flala La, for La La La. I always made me laugh every single time. But I'm gonna be at the Mercury Ballroom, Louisville on January 9th. Then the 10th and 11th, I'll be at Go Bananas in Cincinnati. I absolutely can't wait.

January 30th through February 1st, Portland, Helium. That's it.

Let's record this thing. Oh, God.

Hey, everybody, this is Chad Daniels and you have landed in the middle of somewhere across from me wearing a Vikings hoodie that is the opposite color of mine.

I'm also wearing a Vikings hoodie. It's the Sy Agra. Hello. We're praying.

Yes.

I'm on soon. Who's in the corner? You know it. You love him. It's Hey Bales. It's Hey Bales who has on a sweatshirt, but that is not important because he's wearing cargo shorts in the winter time. What the fuck, Hey Bales?

It is way too cold for that shit. And they're like, he looks like the singular pair of shorts was meant for an entire family of painters. They're like big and like, like if the, like if the insane clown posse had their own brand of cargo shorts, that's what Hey Bales is wearing right now.

I feel like people that wear shorts in the dead of winter in Minnesota, they did it as a child wants and then somebody goes, ooh neat, you're wearing shorts. And then now they just all they keep doing it. It's like that, that person at the office that has the most annoying fucking laugh in the world. And then somebody goes, Becky, I love that laugh. It's crazy.

And so anytime Becky goes anywhere she goes, and that's her laugh. And everyone's like, what the fuck is Becky doing? She's like, well Samantha told me it was nice.

Also since we're introducing our surroundings like we normally do, I'd like to point out right outside of our studio, if you look out the windows, there are, when we got here, I noticed there are about 50 semi trucks out there. And my first thought was they've heard the podcast, they've come to kill Chad.

People get mad at me about Whole Foods, but the amount of truckers that send me a message like, hey, just a heads up. Some of our trucks have governors on them. They can't go faster than 70. Well, that's, you can still drive in the right lane.

And also you could fucking go slower than 70. To let people pass you. But I just don't have to have the governor maxed out. I assumed I just walk up here and there just be a bunch of guys with chain wallets and torches ready to sacrifice Chad to the God of the church.

The God of the trucking community just beating me with rocks that are double bagged and Walmart bags. It's not, do you know, did you see what's on the side of them? It's, they have big murals painted on the side of them and they're all W. W. E. trucks because
