== Party Announcement ==


'''Brad Dowdy:''' All right. Let's wrap it up on one big note.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Okay.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' There's a party going on.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yes.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' And it's in Atlanta.

'''Myke Hurley:''' There's a party going on around here. Yeah.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yep.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Celebrates the time.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' It's in Atlanta for the Pen Show. All you people that made us happen, made this happen, made Myke be able to get to Atlanta. We're announcing an on-site party that hopefully we'll get some video of to share with all of you that can't be there. But if you're going to be there, we're having the Sassafras Spring Fling Friday, April the 17th at 7 p.m. at NotCo headquarters.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Look at those fine sponsors of this event.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So, we actually, Jeff's been working hard. We've been working hard. We have a beer sponsor from a local brewery, Red Brick Brewing. Thank you, Red Brick. We have a couple of other sponsors that you all know and love. That would be Keras Customs and Dudek Modern Goods. They're all providing things for our raffle that we'll be having. Providing some sweet goods for us. Providing beer for us in the case of Red Brick. Jeff knows them well. And this is going to be a straight blowout. And I'm already worried about parking.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Because our shop is about 800 square feet. So, it's not a big place. But we have some outside room to mingle around in. And if anyone was there for the Fodderstack Fall Festival, you know how much fun we had. And this will be even more epic proportions. So, I hope...

'''Myke Hurley:''' Here's the thing. We should probably have this conversation away from the podcast. But I'm going to say it to you now anyway. So, I'm assuming that probably quite a lot of people will be coming from the pen show? Yes. Why don't we get like a mini bus?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' That's not a bad idea. That's really not a bad idea at all.

'''Myke Hurley:''' So, then people can drink too.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Jumping all around. And yeah, that way we can get people back to it. So, I am writing this down. I wish I could tell you what pen I was using.

'''Myke Hurley:''' But I can't because it's so awesome. This is the kind of awesome stuff we can do with the extra money. Yeah.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yes. So, that is a brilliant idea.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Writing it down now. This is why we make a good team. This is why we have pens. This is why we have pens. I wish... You should see this pen I'm using.

'''Myke Hurley:''' It's so awesome. Is it the Nakai again?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' No. It's a $3 pen. And it's amazing.

'''Myke Hurley:''' What is it?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I can't tell you. I told you I can't tell you.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Why can't you tell me?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Because it's not released yet.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Who is it by? Do I know the company? Muji. It's not really, is it? No. No. Okay.

'''Myke Hurley:''' It looks just like this pen called an ink. A company called Karas Customs.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. Are they white? Are they white label?

'''Myke Hurley:''' Can I ask you a question? You can dodge if you want to. Sure. Because this has come up in the Slack.
