			'''J:''' So a few things, Steve, we had a meeting recently about NOTACON, all the people that are running NOTACON because we wanted to finalize a lot of important details, and I'm going to pass those details onto you. First and foremost so NOTACON is a conference that's happening on November 3rd and 4th in White Planes, New York, accessible to the New York airports, the West Chester airport, even Bradley international airport in Connecticut. So the basic concept of the conference is that during the day, we're going to be doing different events and different bits and things that are there to entertain you, and then you will have plenty of time mixed in throughout the day and the night to socialize with your friends that are, will also be attending the conference. So here are some things that we'll be doing at NOTACON. Well, first off on Friday and Saturday night, we will both of those nights. There'll be nighttime entertainment. We'll be doing a live Boomer vs. Zoomer quiz show that we created, George Hrabb is the host of that show. And that'll be on Friday night. We'll be picking people as contestants from the audience. And on Saturday night, Brian Wecht and George Hrabb will be doing something called the insanely eighties sing along. This is a theme sing along featuring eighties music and some cool stuff. I'm about to drop some cool details on you. I don't know if any of you have ever heard of Trey Magnifique, but this is a special guest that we will be having that will be joining us for the insanely eighties sing along theme. If you are fans of Ninja Sex Party, you probably know who this character is. And also speaking of Ninja Sex Party, there is a character named a Ninja Brian. We have made communication with Ninja Brian, which you cannot do with words. You have to write things down and send secret messages and whatnot. But, but what we did get back from Ninja Brian was that Ninja Brian will be doing silent standup comedy. Yes. Yes. He will be doing this at NOTACON. He specifically asked that we did not announce when it will happen, but he will be there. He will be making an appearance and there will be standup comedy happening. And I want to tell you that I've seen Ninja Brian do standup comedy in the past and it is remarkably funny. He's so goddamn good. It's so good. It's such a treat. So those two characters will be showing up. And then we have a few things that I wanted to tell you about. We have, let me give you an example of some of the things that are going to happen. We have a thing that we're going to do at NOTACON called how to blank. Sounds crazy, but what it is, is that each one of us throughout mixed in throughout the course of the two days, each one of us, like, so all the people in the SGU, then we've got Brian Wecht, we've got George Hrabb, we've got Andrea Jones Rooy. We are going to be teaching you something from one of our skill sets. And we talked in detail about what everybody's going to be doing. I know what everybody's going to be talking about. And I got to tell you that if there's a lot of fun and interesting things that are going to happen during this part of the show. We have something called truth or dur, this is another, another game that we're going to be playing. This is really, again, each of these things, most of the things that we're doing will involve the audience in one way or another, we have another thing that's called the actor's nightmare. This is a really heavy audience interaction game that we're going to be playing. So there's going to be improv games, there's going to be a dedicated Q&A to ask any types of questions that you want to any of the people that will be attending. There'll be a live geologic podcast, which I don't think anyone has ever seen. There'll be another game show happening called, is it Mayo? I'm not going to tell you anything else about that. There'll be a live SGU recording. We are going to have a VR headset hooked up and we're going to be doing some crazy stuff with that and definitely having audience interaction with that. So if you're interested, all you got to do is go to [https://www.theskepticsguide.org/ theskepticsguide.org], scroll down a tiny bit and you'll see a button that will take you to all the information that you need to know. Of course you're going to have to get a hotel room and all that. So you need all those details and you can find it out on our page. So just go to our website. I also want to remind you guys that QED, the skeptical conference that happens in Manchester, UK, that's happening on September 23rd and 24th. It's coming up quick. Now, last week I said that only patrons can enter, but due to Patreon rules, I need to open this up to the public. So if you are a listener of the SGU and you are able to attend the conference, the QED conference happening on September 23rd and 24th in Manchester, UK, then simply email us at INFO@theskepticsguide.org with your full name and your current email address that you'd like us to use to let you know if you win. For more information on the conference, you can go to [https://qedcon.org/ QEDCON.org]. And I'm going to tell you from personal experience, the conference is awesome. And you're going to have a really good time if you go.

			'''S:''' All right. Thanks Jay. Okay guys, it's time for science or fiction.
