Hey, if you're a regular listener to this podcast, you undoubtedly know that my Max Travel Show premiered yesterday. The premise of the show is I visit international fans in their country that I first met while doing the podcast. I travel to their country and surprise them. So anyway, this is a compilation we're going to play now of those people who ended up being a big part of the show. And this is the first time we meet on the podcast. All of these full-length episodes are available in the podcast feed. So if you miss them the first time you want to revisit, go to it. Enjoy. Hey, Konan.
