Hello! On this episode, we return to the Patton Campus in Elizabethtown, PA for a live appearance at the DeMolay Keyman 2025 Conference. After the usual opening we are joined by several young men representing various chapters from across the United States as well as a few adult leaders who assist with the operations of the youth organizations. We hear the Masonic News and wrap in the standard form with Larry and the Lost leading us home. After the episode, we have included a Q&A/Shoutout session with members of the audience that occurred during the appearance.

Hello! On this episode, Jack is on assignment with his Usual Vocation, Larry is sourcing barrels while on a trip to Niagara Falls, leaving Tim, Jake, and Josh to power-through. We play a mini-game of 20 Questions, stopping at four, and set a record for the number of umms and uhhhs in a single sentence. No Masonic News, Copious Dues, or Quiet Time, but we do manage to give the chickens a chance to stretch their legs with a cover of "Carol" by Larry and the Aquatic Search Party.
