'''Myke Hurley:''' From RelayFM, this is The Pen Addict, episode 254. Today's show is brought to you by Pen Chalet and Blue Apron. My name is Myke Hurley, and I am joined again by Brad Dowdy. Quick turnaround this week, Myke. Yep, like, what was it, three days? Although it feels like two days for me, right? Because I kind of made, I feel like I lost a day somewhere along the way, but it feels like we literally just recorded mere days ago.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, and I just got the chance to listen this morning, so it's especially close timing to me. So, but that was, I mean, does it get more fun than that?

'''Myke Hurley:''' I love the live show so much. I wish we could do it more, like, for all of my shows, but it's such a difficult thing to put together, but doing the show in front of 100 people, hearing them laugh at your jokes, and, you know, that's my favourite. That is honestly my favourite thing, when you make a dumb joke and people start laughing. Like, it's great, because there are so many times that I make a dumb joke and you don't laugh. But there are other people that will, and they do, right? And just stuff like that, it's good. It makes me have more fun, because there's more of a performance to it, and you're kind of, you know, messing around. So, I'm really excited that we're going to be doing at least one more live show this year, right? Yeah, yeah. In Chicago in October time.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, that's going to be awesome. I'm already ready for that. I'm like, I'm ready to start planning for that. Me too. Although we have a trip in between where there won't be a live show, and I'm not sure where that trip's going to be to, Myke. We have some discussions around that.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Should we just mention, very quickly, in case people are not sure about this, like, just a very brief aside. So, we've spoken about the DC Pen Show as being the middle place that we go to, and that we'll make a video there, and we'll be there in person. As we're recording today, which is the 26th of April, bearing in mind that the DC Pen Show should be happening in early August, there's no location and no date for the show. There's been some changes behind the scenes there. So, as it stands right now, we don't know if we'll be making that show, and so we may have to do something else. But we have some really cool ideas in mind if we can't do that, and we'll talk about those later if they come to pass. But as it stands right now, you may hear us making jokes about the fact that there currently is no DC Pen Show. Right. So, yeah.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, so we're going to have to make a decision in the next three or few weeks. Like, in May, our decision is going to have to be made because we have to arrange travel and schedules and all this stuff. So, if we're not comfortable with the DC thing, we may just have to punt and do something else. But we promise it will be, whatever we do will be well worth it, and we'll have to make it up to DC sometime if we don't get it.

'''Myke Hurley:''' And as promised, whatever we do, there will be a video that we put together, like a vlog style video. That's what we promised. No doubt. What we have in mind, I think, might be more fun from a vlog perspective. But we'll see. We'll see. You'll find out soon. But, yeah, that's the thing that's happening in the middle. And whatever it is, wherever we go, there will be meetups and stuff like that. No doubt.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' No doubt.
