Hello everyone and welcome to Season 9 of Pints with Jack. It's David here and we are kicking

off Season 9 a little differently from previous seasons. So normally what we would do is we'd have

all three co-hosts getting together and talking about what we're going to be doing in the coming

season. But Andrew and I were invited to the CS Lois Festival in Potoski in Northern Michigan.

And we thought, what better way to kick off season 9 than with a live episode in front of

a studio audience?

So what follows is that recording, and next week Matt will be joining us and we're going to be talking

about what we're going to be looking at this season. So now we turn to the recording of the

live episode of Pints for Jack at the Potoskey CS Lewis Festival, and it is introduced by

the Pints for Jack theme song, which has been written and recorded by former guest of the show and friend of the show, Mr. Matthew Wheeler.

Cheers.

Have you been looking, everywhere searching for a place where you belong?

Away from the masses among clinking glasses where the hearth fire is on.

Let the laughter welcome you in that eagle and child in

there's room at this table to take a seat and tucked right in

Pines with Jack

Pines with Jack Somehow what Lewis thought about everything was secretly present in what he said about anything.

This is Pints with Jack, season 9, episode 1. It's all until we have faces.

After Hours with the Potoskey C.S. Lewis Festival.

Welcome friends to Pints for Jack.

My name is David Bates, and I'm joined today by my co-host,

Reverend Andrew Lazzo. My co-host Matt Bush was not cool enough to be here today, which is a shame
