(Produced by Shea Shackelford)

"There's nothing I can say to you that will prepare you for this." - Matt Largey

Thanks to Matt and TK for dropping by the Big Shed. Hope the stars at night are big and bright down there.

• Personal Note: This is also a belated birthday shout out to Shea's father, Ben Shackelford (who's pictured here with a youger, clean-cut Shea). Shea questions whether he will tell him about it, because of the scattalogical content leading up to our birthday wish at the end of the piece. But he asks, "it's the thought that counts, right?!"

• Historical Note: Matt Largey and Shea originally produced this piece for Radio Pie, an ocassional audio collective (of which Shea must confess membership) in June of 2005. We're going to make a bold claim here, the kind one can only make when inflating the significance of internet-related history. Thanks to the marketing prowress of Big Shed's Jennifer Deer and the ballsy vision of Jim Gates and the rest of the folks at APM's Weekend America, we think that this was the first instance of audio being produced for a podcast being picked up as a public radio segment. Woohoo!!
