Good thousand.

There, nozzi.

There's it.

We're going to be. I'm notux I'm Good evening and welcome to Monsters Among Us.

I'm your guide, Derek Hayes.

And welcome, indeed.

I have a ton of stories to get through this evening, so I'm going to keep this intro brief.

Keep in mind that I will be part of a panel at AlienCon here in Los Angeles on June 21st.

Now our panel, which includes folks from Blurry Photos podcast, Hysteria 51, Our Strange Skies,

stuff they don't want you to know, the Mad Scientist podcast, and, of course, me.

Now that panel begins at 10.20 a.m. on Friday.

Now, the fun does not stop there.

That evening, we're actually going to do a mega podcast

meetup. I don't even know how many podcasts are going to be part of this. There's at least 10 or 15,

and I'll try to get a list together in the coming weeks. But this event's going to be held at

Scum and Villany Cantina on Hollywood Boulevard, Friday, June 21st, 7 p.m.

As of now, that's all the details I have, but as they come in, I will forward them on to you.

Now, in addition to that appearance, it was officially announced today that I will be hosting the town hall meeting at this year's Crypticon in Kentucky.

Now that event is coming up in September, so clear your schedules for that as well.

So with all of that out of the way, let's move on to the main course.

Our first story of the evening comes to us from Parts Unknown, literally.

The following is Billy's story.
