Yes in perpetuity forever. Okay. Yes. I will be playing the role of Mike Portinoi today

Honestly, you might do okay

So for folks who don't know

Austin has joined us boy. What has it been for the last 16 years? I think five or six years has

been spent a while. No, it's been a while. No, it's been a while.

When did we join the website? No one knows. There's no way to find out five years. There's our fifth one.

Man, and it has been awesome every time. Thank you. I'll just get this out of the gate. Thank you very much

Austin for donating your time for this. I really appreciate it. Always enjoy it.

So what we do here is our bonus episode for the end of the year. Austin comes up with a

fantastical world in which we all just try to live through and get together in it has

ranged from things like capers at LaGuardia, to Nioh old subway lore. Yeah, there's

say trains talking trains all over the place. And space there was a control one. I think I'm

missing one in my own brain. Oh, in a post-apocalyptic. We already did post-apocalyptic.

I think we've done at least two post-apocalypse. We like we stole something out of time square.

That happened the first one. The ball was the second one. The first one was just the airport

when we were transporting. Right. We did too. Oh my god. Right. I think there's like five.

There have been a lot. And there was a lot of fun and a fun way to end the year and begin the year.
