Thank You Washington D.C.!

Ok, maybe bigger thanks to Falls Church, Virginia are in order, as that was the home of this weekends SUPERSHOW, but regardless of the location, it was epic. The pens, the friends, the vibes - all of it was of the charts.

So epic, that today is a big catch-up day for me. I’ll be unpacking, catching up on shipping, and planning for a busy rest of the week, with all of your normal podcast and live stream content headed your way.

Thanks to everyone in D.C. who made this event a special one. See you again soon!
