Fan Mail
Adam and Michael, this is Alex from Georgia. Just got through listening to the latest episode. Looking forward to seeing the new website up and running and using all the new features. Also, congratulations on getting that 50th state. That was a great achievement. I think the next challenge should be to try to get a listener from all seven continents. Some people say there are eight, but let's say there's seven. Franklin probably has trips planned for most of those continents, and maybe we can encourage him to add all trips to all seven continents. My guess for this episode's listener spotlight is Black Diamond Washington State. Thanks again for the great entertainment. Looking forward to the next one.
