Hello Bechtelcast listeners. Don't you always just find yourself thinking, I want to celebrate my favorite podcast, The Bechtelcast, but how? Well it could be with a live show that we are doing in Los Angeles. Ever heard of it? On March 2nd at 730 at Dynasty Typewriter. Pacific Standard Time. If you're in the Los Angeles area, if you're in Southern California in general, there's no excuse to not be there. We're giving you plenty of notice, but maybe you're thinking, I'm a huge fan of the Bechtel cast, but I don't live there. Well, we've got you covered because there's going to be a live stream of this very show, which is called a Bechtelcast Celebration. We've been wanting to do this for a long time.

We had plans to do a five-year show, but there was this thing called COVID-19 getting in the way. We've wanted to just do a variety show with some of our favorite past guests of the show, and where we can just talk about important takeaways that we've made during the show, like Alfred Molina, Paddington, and other men. But it'll be a blast.

We are going to announce guests soon. And yes, if you are interested in watching Dynasty Typewriter, I think truly has my favorite livestream set up in the God damn country, you will feel like you are there. And it won't smell like you're there. I don't know, I just said our listeners smell bad. That's not true, we love you.

Now- We smell bad. We smell bad, it's gonna reek. Are we doing substance cosplay? Yes. Yes. Now, third question you might have, wait, Caitlin, Jamie, isn't that the night of the Oscars?

Yes, but, but it takes place immediately after the Oscars. So if you're going to an Oscars party, or if you're gonna be watching the Oscars at home as a film appreciator, grab a live stream ticket, or if you're in the area, drive on over after the ceremony wraps up because we are going to be not just celebrating the Mezzel cast but doing a little postmortem about the Oscar race this year which has been totally not messy at all and extremely normal. And very good actually. Yes. So yes

you can grab tickets either for the live show in person in LA at 730 PM Pacific or the live stream, which it'll just depend on what time zone you're in for that. But both tickets are available on our Linktree, Linktree slash Bechtelcast, as well as the website for Dynasty Typewriter. So scoot over there, grab your tickets, get ready to celebrate with us because it's been 84 years, but mostly eight years of the Bechdelcast. It's been mostly eight years. And we want to celebrate with past guests, with each other, with our listeners, with everyone.

Yes, and the last thing that I want to mention is that if you already had tickets to this show, this was being rescheduled from a date in January. We rescheduled due to the Los Angeles fires, and we are going to be donating proceeds from this show to victims of the fires, specifically the families of Altadena that have lost everything as a result of these fires. So grab a ticket, your money's going to a good place. And if you don't wanna come, donate to families anyways for crying out loud.

Please. But we're very excited to be having this show sort of a little bit after because sustained support of these families is going to be critical. And yeah, we hope to see you there. If you're a matron, you get a little treat from us. Take that. We will see you there or we'll see you on the computer.

Bye. Bye bye.
