UNCORRECTED TRANSCRIPT
0:00:00 - (Chris): Hey all, Chris here. I have a quick update about 90 miles from Needles, the Desert Protection Podcast. First off, I want to thank you all for tuning in, for sharing our episodes, for writing reviews, for spreading stories far and wide, for following us on social media and supporting this podcast in so many different ways. We could not do this without you. Now, starting this week, we're making a small but important change to make sure that putting this podcast out stays as sustainable as possible.
0:00:45 - (Chris): New episodes will now be dropping on Fridays instead of on Tuesdays. We've been doing Tuesdays for the last year and a half or so, but this shift will give me a little bit of production, breathing room, and more importantly, the goal is to give me my weekends back so that I can spend time with my family who have been missing me as I shut myself up in the studio on Saturdays and Sundays. Desert Advocacy is important, but so is work, life, balance.
0:01:12 - (Chris): And I know that many of you out there can relate. So mark your calendars. Fridays are now Desert Protection Days. Thanks again for listening and for being part of this journey. And I will see you at the next watering hole just a couple of days later than usual.
