Hey guys welcome to episode 175 with my marvelous guest

Ria Butcher I am absolutely over the moon delighted that she was able to do the

podcast I'm such a fan of hers and I think

you'll really enjoy this episode. I wanted to get just a few shoutouts in to this intro guys. I am a little behind on,

you know what? I should just have one general intro where

like a computer generated voice says, episode 175 with each respective episode number because they're always the same.

I'm always apologizing for being behind on shoutouts.

I do want to thank however Andrea about your wonderful email about the nuns.

Aaron for your glorious email, Dylan for your beautiful email

and the potential to possibly go to Disney World. I just couldn't be more excited following the

Jessica Marzan episode. As some of you know, I'm very interested in doing a

pilgrimage with her to Harry Potterland.

Mallory, I want to thank you so much for your amazing velociraptor drawing that you did.

It was a kind of a joke that Tara Platt and I made in the last episode and she put pen to paper.

That's maybe not true.

It might be computer to brain and did this amazing

illustration. I should put it up on the Facebook page. And then Casey, thank you so much for your

recommendation for a book I want to check out. Alpha Beta, How 26 Letters Change the Western World.

I recently freaked out over the idea of cultures forming alphabets, and this seems like it's going to cause me to freak out yet further in a positive way.

I think that's all for now, guys.

I hope you're having a wonderful week and I will talk to you soon.

Bye.
