Hi, Lee. Welcome to our show.

Hello, Savannah. Nice to see you today.

Nice to see you, too.

Yes. How are you?

How does it feel knowing that we gave everyone from the subtext a bonus episode?

Oh, so good. So good. I hope that it just filled people with love and light on Valentine's Day.

I do, do. I love you. I'm about to say Thanksgiving.

Love and light. Love and light. What's the line? Live, laugh. Love. Live, Love. I hope everyone lived, laughed and loved on Valentine's Day. Same. I love it. Okay, Lee, well, we haven't caught up lately on any pop culture vibes in terms of what you've been reading or watching.

Anything new in the pipeline?

You know, I was so busy with the winter storm fern without electricity and then just trying to catch up on life that we've not had much opportunity to intake much pop culture stuff.

I did recently finish Edward Abbey's Desert Solitaire.

Do you know Edward Abbey?

So he was a dear old cantankerous soul who loved the Southwest United States.

Nice.

And so he's got this book Desert Solitaire that's about the two summers, I think it was two summers that he spent as a volunteer park ranger in what is now Arches National Park, you know, right outside Moab, Bouta. That's cool. Yeah. And, but he was, yeah, he's a fascinating guy. So anyway, just finished that. So that's pretty great. Just about his experiences as a ranger?

Yeah, it's like just a memoir kind of thing about his experiences there.

And so he's writing this in the 60s, 50s, 60s before it's all become so commercialized in the National Park.

And he like does this one canoe trip down in one of the canyons that's now covered over because of a dam that was put up that nobody can visit anymore.

And so just really fascinating stuff, yeah.

That is interesting.

Yeah.

I told you about against the machine by Paul Kings North, right?
