Hey there, Tired Pod Free Feed Listener, it's your producer, pal Maddie.

Here are some programming notes about what we have coming up for you.

Episode 97, which this is standing in for, has Rory's report from the LA Auto Show.

Peter is talking about some car movies since he's got a Film Friday feature over on Alloy

Mag.

Now, if you have not been over to alloymag.com, please go check out all the hard work that

Rory and Fernando have put in to getting that site up and running.

It's beautiful, it's super fun, it's nice to look at, it's not covered in ads, it's

so nice.

And Peter is going to have some stuff up on it regularly, which is super cool, obviously

if you enjoy Peter's automotive writing.

Now, I'm also here to direct you to patreon.com slash Tired Pod so that you can hear not only

episode 97, but also an upcoming bonus bits episode with all the fun little stuff I've

been pulling out of recent recordings just to put a little stockpile of the really fun

stuff together.

There is of course also installment number three of the Patreon dunk tank coming up where

I have to report back on 38 more chapters of the really, really, really long Formula

One fanfic and explain things to Peter and Rory.

I think that's the big highlight of what's coming up.

Please go over to patreon.com slash Tired Pod for only $5 a month.

You get access to our whole back catalog of nonsense and we've got some pretty good

stuff in there.

Thanks again and stay tired.
