Darling Buds of May,
HOW WE DOIN TODAY!? Who’s ready for a GREAT newsletter!? I can’t heaaaar you… we said, WHO’S READY FOR A GREAT NEWSLETTER! Wahhh, are my ears broke? Someone call the doctor! My ears is broke! Ok, one last time before we get the audiologists in the house, WHO’S READY FOR A GREAT NEWSLETTER! Wow, ok! That’s more like it! Passing off the laptop now, BE WELL LOS ANGELES!
Special thanks to the fabulous warm-up comic Gogi Roggers for writing that first mini-blurb. Gogi is known to be THE most “delightfully abrasive” warm-up guy in the biz. It was an “honour” working with him on this project and worth every penny (120,000 pennies.)
We sincerely hope everyone is thriving and vibing this week - we’re certainly trying to! Between us we’ve recently been diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, and are battling a sunburn and a potential cluster of facial/cranial spider bites. Who has what? We’ll never tell because 🦂ScOrPioS love MYSTERY 🤔 . Especially sexy malady mysteries.
Now, let’s pull back the veil of mystery and let you know in a very straight forward way what’s on the docket for the week!
