This is Nick. This is Jack. And it’s TBOY Live Day. That means all hands on deck for our first-ever LIVE podcast taping. If you’ve planned a wedding or a bar mitzvah — you know how that day before is. We’ll be back on Friday with our regular email format. But we’re not going to leave you empty-handed. We whipped up some treats for your reading pleasure.
🚨 BTW — We just opened up a few MORE tickets for our Live Show, 6pm tonight at Shack15 in the Ferry Building in San Francisco. Doors open at 5:30pm to grab your seats and a cocktail.
