Hi folks, Brandon here with a quick show note before we start our program.

As of this recording, our Indie Go Go campaign, to help me not die on a tropical island, has 93 backers, and is not just fully funded, it is funded to the tune of 134%.

You people have come through in such a generous way and I am deeply grateful and humbled.

I'll be heading out to St. Croix in a few weeks to meet up with future well pod guest Tom McElroy

and I hope to honor your commitment with some truly outstanding episodes for season three.

And when I get back, Anson and I will get down to the business of signing

thank you cards and learning to engrave coconuts. Did I mention neither of us are skilled

engravers? Fair warning, results may vary. Also, your contributions represent the only money we have

ever received for producing this podcast.

So that extra 34% will not be blown on booze or fancy pogo sticks.

We can now finally start reimbursing ourselves for all that equipment we purchased over two years ago when we first started this.

So from Anson and I both, thank you.

Thank you.

And now, on with the show.

It won't pod listeners.

Just a quick note to let you know there's some explicit language in this episode.

And I don't think I can get more explicit than that.

Just in time, fire engines.

It's Brooklyn.

Did the revolution start? Is that what I'm hearing?

Okay.

I'll start off.
