Let's podcast alongside Joe Jillio. I'm Joe Ovius inside Eifford Studios in downtown,

Raleigh, thanks to Empire Properties. And of course, thanks to Copiers Plus.

Check them out online at copiers. Thatchplus.com. But on Fridays, we open up the mailbag. Thanks for our friends at the butcher's market. Check them out. I'm going to have to check them out after today's podcast to get myself one of those steak and cheeses to help me with this hangover after yesterday's birthday bash at Shades.

I'm sure some of you can probably tell in my voice.

I'm a little froggy today.

Thanks to all for coming out and supporting us.

Yeah.

That was a big good time.

We had a really good time.

Big thanks to Josh and Charlotte for having Shadies available for us. That's important to have a spot to do that. Big thanks to Empire Properties, Empire Eats. Yes. You brought the wolf. Yep. I had to go back twice because of all the beer that I consumed. I laid the base down with the chicken nachos and I had to go back for tendies. I was I say you didn't get the schnitzel though. I did they ran out. I know the schnitzel, though. They ran out. I know.

The schnitzel, man. So good. But yeah, big thanks to everybody who came through. I think everybody had a good time. I think it's good for everybody to go outside. Like, hey, you're that person that I interact with from time and time on social media. Oh, hey. And it's good to get people together. and I'm glad that we can kind of be the central reason why everybody kind of comes together,

yet that shared thing. And the other thing that I would take away from last night, it kind of dawned on me after a few high lives after we ran out of OG light, which I'm very happy that the person who kicked the keg was Mitch. Mitch. You know, Mitch Northrum, who helps us out with women's college basketball, women's basketball.

He kicked the keg. I love that. And we will make cans available soon. But it was a very nice beer-flavored beer. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, my goal was to make it a beer that you would drink. I would absolutely drink that. Okay, good. No, but I think the cool thing is we're talking a bunch of people, including, you know, Brian from Nice Price or Glenn from color graphics. They're just people

who just do stuff for us because they want to. And that helps the show. It helps the podcast.

So we cannot do this stuff without everybody's involvement, whether it's something as simple

as making comments in YouTube,

rating us, retweeting or whatever it is, sharing stuff on Instagram and TikTok, or like in the case of like actual parts of the show, like I can't do a jingle. Brian can though. So I can't,

I can't do, I can't give myself that much hair on a cornhole board.

You know what I'm saying?

That kind of stuff.

So anyway, big thanks to everybody who showed up last night.

How are you feeling?
