  Hey weirdos, it's Rachel here. I'm just dropping into your feed to let you know that first of all, Weirdest Thing will be back for our next season, I think season nine, who can even keep track, on Wednesday, January 29th. I know, we've missed you two, so it's great to be coming back. But the real reason I'm dropping in is that it is absolutely time to get your tickets for the next Weirdest Thing live show in New York City. You can come hang out with us and enjoy weird facts live and in person on Saturday, February 8th at 4pm. We'll be at Caveat in NYC, obviously it's our favorite place in the world, but you can also catch the show via live stream and even video on demand if the timing doesn't quite work where you are in the world.

• 1:15Rachel Feltman?

  Or if you want to re-watch it five times in the privacy of your own home, whatever, no judgment. If you want to join us in person, you should definitely get your tickets soon because we often sell out. But also, I'm just going to be very candid for a second. Jess and I put on these live shows on our own as individuals. Jess flies out from Chicago to make it happen, and that means we take on some financial liability to do this for you and for us. I mean, we love to do the live shows or we wouldn't do them. But my point is, between making sure we can pay decent honorariums to the co-hosts who are joining us, getting some merch to give out as prizes, and of course, making sure we sell enough tickets to cover Caveat's expenses, yeah, it's always a little nerve-wracking when we're a few weeks out.

• 1:58Rachel Feltman?

  You guys always prove me wrong and either pretty much sell us out or actually get us into standing room only territory. But if you're on the fence and you like our show, it would be so awesome if you came to join us. Join us either in person or via livestream. For a limited time only, you can get $5 off in-person tickets or $10 off livestream tickets by using the code BUTTERFIRE at checkout. That's all caps BUTTERFIRE. With that code, your livestream ticket is just five bucks, which these days is actually like less than a fancy latte, at least where I live. So honestly, you should think of buying a livestream ticket as like buying me a cup of coffee and sitting down and having that coffee with me. And I've just brought a bunch of PowerPoints for some reason,

• 2:41Rachel Feltman?

  and I'm gonna like go through a bunch of weird facts for you. It'll be great. Okay, so to recap, Weirdest Thing will be back in your feed every other week, starting Wednesday, January 29th. But we will also be live and in person at Caveat in New York City on February 8th at 4:00 PM. You can get your tickets now to either join us there at Caveat or via livestream and video on demand. It's gonna be an awesome time, and it's also an awesome way to support me and Jess. And hey, if you don't live in New York City, and your response to this is, "Why don't you come do a show in insert city here?" I totally hear you, and I would love to be able to make that happen eventually. Selling a bunch of livestream tickets would definitely make that more feasible for us.

• 3:25Rachel Feltman?

  So snag yourself that livestream ticket and get in the comments during the show to say, "I want you in wherever." And I can't promise it'll happen in 2025, but it is definitely more likely if we sell more livestream tickets than usual. Okay, that's it. Use the code BUTTERFIRE, all caps, or don't use it if you want to like extra support us by paying full price. I'm so excited to see you there.
