  Hey everybody, it's Neil I from The Vergecast and Ctrl+Alt+Delete. I've got some really exciting news. South by Southwest is coming up in Austin, Texas, and we're going to be taping two episodes of The Vergecast live at South by Southwest. The shows are going to be open to the public, so if you're at South by, come watch The Vergecast, heckle us a little bit, but like quietly, so it doesn't interfere with the recording. But you can come watch. We're doing it in partnership with National Geographic, which is super exciting. They're going to be at the Vulcan Gas Company, which is a really cool space. And our friends from Recode are going to be taping a bunch of podcasts live as well. So on March 10th, Peter Kafka will be taping Recode Media. On March 11th, Lauren Good will be taping Too Embarrassed to Ask. We'll be doing The Vergecast on March 12th. Kara Swisher will be doing Recode Decode on March 13th,

We'll have a post on the site with all the details soon. We just wanted to let The Vergecast listeners know first. It's really exciting. Can't wait to see you there.
