A little travel talk because, yes, I am now two days back from vacation.

And I went to a place that I never really wanted to go to in the past.

And that is the town of St. Louis, Missouri.

And the reason I went, it was my wife's birthday week last week.

Happy birthday.

Yes, happy belated to the lovely Mrs. Bass.

And she is very much into a podcast called Fated Mates.

It's a romance book podcast.

And one of the hosts is an author, her name's Sarah McLean.

And she just put out a brand new book.

And they did a live recording of their podcast.

And this is the second one of these.

I didn't attend this one.

But when we were on our anniversary trip a couple years ago in Brooklyn,

or in New York, they had a show in Brooklyn.

So we made that one.

Jen wanted to go to this one.

And people from all over the country travel to go watch this.

Apparently it's pretty big in those circles.

Is this an annual thing they do?

Or do they record like every episode on remote?

I think this is just a one time a year thing to have like their version of ticket stock or something like that.
