Hello. Welcome to Daily(ish) for Tuesday, October 4. It's, balmy seven degrees, feels like three degrees Celsius. That's probably like, I don't know, some weird number in Fahrenheit, twenty seven three four hours. I don't know, something like that.

Speaker 1:And also by Patreon supporters like you. I've probably been doing this this, rough read through the same way for like 30 or 40 episodes now, so I should probably change it up, hey? You're all getting sick of it and tuning it tuning me out and not even hearing that you should go visit patreon.com/ichris right now to check out how you can support my podcast, Steph Farris, a little more directly and also get access to like the stuffy Slack thing where there's a bunch of cool nerds, and non nerds. I don't wanna assume everybody's a nerd, what if they're not. Chatting and poking fun at things we do on the podcast.
Speaker 1:What else? Minecrafting. I think that's still going on. We're still paying the bill for for the server, so I'm assuming it's still going on. And and other fun activities plus the, special podcast feed from from myself.
Speaker 1:So patreon.com/ichris is where you can check that out. It's really rude. It is really rude, Adam. Thanks for that reminder. I completely forgot in my recap of the trip to Cleveland, the u two forty trip to Cleveland I took last week and where are we now?
Speaker 1:Yeah. It's already been a week. On my way back, I had a five hour ish layover that stretched into a six hour ish layover delay and with a delay in Minneapolis airports, MSP, hashtag MSP. It's actually one of the nicer airports to be honest. There's a lot of places to sort of walk around.
Speaker 1:There's lots of places to plug in and get some electrical juice, and, there's a lot of places to just get some coffee and and chill and, yeah. It's actually of of any airport, many airports that I've been stranded in over the years delayed in or whatever layovers. Where I live in Saskatoon, we're always flying somewhere to get then go somewhere else. We never get rarely do we ever get a direct flight unless we're going to like Edmonton or Calgary. Even like to Winnipeg, which is like a one province over city often we have to go through Edmonton to the left, to the West, and then right to the East.
Speaker 1:You can tell how my brain works sometimes to get to in a big silly stuff like that. But, where was I going? Oh, Minneapolis is is a really nice airport actually to hang out in. It wasn't it wasn't that painful. I I amused myself if you were following me on Twitter with some, hijinks photography and tweeting hijinks that night just for my own amusement and hopefully some of the folks who follow me on Twitter had a little bit of fun with it as well.
Speaker 1:But anyways, I digress. I was gonna say former, Good Stuff chief CMS officer or CCMSO for short, Tim Smith saw that I was gonna be hanging out at the airport and offered to come pick me up and go for supper, take me out for supper in Minneapolis, which I've never I don't think I've ever done. I drove through Minneapolis once, when we were driving from out east across Canada back home and basically just drove through after driving for twelve hours already. So I didn't see too much in Minneapolis then. I have been to a twins game actually a long time ago.
Speaker 1:Anyways, this is my summary of being in Minneapolis. But anyways, Tim Smith came and picked me up. Harold, at Princess Harold on Twitter also joined us for some, as you do in Minneapolis, guess, go go for some barbecue and, at a local establishment. I forget the name of it now. I've I've got the picture in the show notes of where we were.
Speaker 1:Something something barbecue, I think. Anyways, yeah. Harold, good stuff listener. Frequent show me your mic and morning show voice from the depths joined us as well. Got to talk through some, you know, the podcast wars of old, Apple Geekery, my lack of web developer knowledge, politics in The US versus Canada.
Speaker 1:I think those are the main main talking points anyways. But it was good to finally the these people who I've interacted with, again, just like the trip to Cleveland, interacted with online in various forms. Tim, obviously, even longer than a lot of the YouTube folks of, you know, two, three years now, something like that through podcasting stuff we've done over the years, to finally actually we've seen pictures of each other. We've video chats, it's still cool to obviously hang out in in meet space as Kyle Roderick likes to say. I know I think other people say too.
Speaker 1:So good to yeah. Good to meet and and special thanks to Tim for, first of all picking me up from the airport obviously. That was awesome and then also buying my supper which was great when I was planning to have airport food, which I mean is nowadays is just restaurant food I guess, but, and then, and then also if you check on Twitter, I'll put a link to the tweet. He picked brought me apparently he has a deluge, overabundance or or whatever of, bobblehead toys. I forget what the brand is that they're called, but anyways, the Captain America versus Iron Man bobblehead set was sitting in his back seats of his car for me.
Speaker 1:So, brought that home and so far one week on, Tim, if you're listening, the my kids haven't destroyed them. They they played with them for a little bit but have forgotten that they're on the shelf for now. And so luckily my Tyrion Lannister bobblehead guy now has a couple of friends to play with as long as they don't keep fighting with each other. It's a civil war set, so Iron Man and Captain America are kind of locked in battle. So Tyrion Lannister is in between trying to keep the peace much like he does on the show sort of.
Speaker 1:But yeah, good to see you Harold. Good to see Tim and, hopefully can do it again sometime. I don't know when I would be I'll definitely be flying through Minneapolis at some point in my life and hopefully it's long enough to have a layover Or if we do the RV trip then we'll definitely look you up. But, thanks guys and, that's it for this episode of Daily's for today. I'm kinda digging doing more frequent updates as as time permits, which means inevitably in a month or two, I'll crash and burn because I'll not have this means I haven't done as much work because I'm doing this podcast.
Speaker 1:Anyways, I digress. You can help out with that if you visit patreon.com/ichris. If you're a YouTube fan and listening tomorrow night, Wednesday night is the big sort of YouTube concert, sort of. It is the YouTube concerts in, near San Francisco at the Salesforce Dreamforce Force of Awakening, show conference thing. They're there for it.
Speaker 1:It's a YouTube it's a charity event, it's not that this is like a big YouTube show that they just you know got paid by Salesforce to come and do it. It's a charity event. There's connections with Salesforce CEO and Bono's work or whatever and stuff and so that's sort of how it all came together I guess and so it should be a fun show. There'll be folks periscoping and streaming it and stuff if you're into that kind of thing watching. And, yeah, looking forward to seeing what they do because they didn't do much at the, iHeartRadio thing.
Speaker 1:It's kind of a quick little set list and, seem to be in and out and done. And so this is actually like a full on stage. Their their old, Vertigo's tour stage, it looks like from 2006, I think it is, and, which is actually the last time I think I no no. I saw them since then. Anyways, so it'll be fun to see them, see what they do, probably make a few political statements as they did, little Donald Trumpisms and things like that.
Speaker 1:If you follow at YouTube, twitter.com/atu2 or myself, I'll probably retweet stuff, just keep up with what's going on. All that said, thanks for listening. Hope you have a great Tuesday. Snow is coming here. I'm not looking forward to it.
Speaker 1:I'll probably come on Daily(ish) tomorrow to complain. So look forward to that. Bye.
