I'm in Wichita. See the connection there?

I guess I'm traveling around the Midwest recording myself too. This is the same Midwest that once surrounded my elementary school body as it traveled to Pizza Hut in my mom's van once a month so I could BOOK IT! Which is why I became such an obsessive reader, and ultimately why I do this podcast!

This one is for you, Bud Gates.

I just basically said the word "incredible" over and over for 10 minutes. And I cried. Twice.

ENJOY!

Dear friends,

I set up my $40 mic next to an old cold cup of coffee. Not OLD old, just mildly old. I probably last took a sip out of it around 1pm. It is now 10:24pm. This is night in the shittiest part of Beverly Hills. Billy made me spaghetti and salad tonight. Billy is already asleep. I will now do other things with the evening.

I'm not happy with this After Dark for whatever reason. But I am deeply happy some of you care to hear this stuff. Thank you for that.

I do wish you all understanding.

With love,
Robyn

p.s. Thank you Mark.
