Hey everybody, Alden Ford and the cast of the show here. Hello! Long time no talk. We have a really exciting couple announcements for you. That's right, Papa. It's going to be a big blast. No, actually Winston, we're not doing that Winston. I appreciate your commitment, but we're here to make an announcement out of character.

So we can't hide behind a mask and kind of distance ourselves from our emotions? I mean, go ahead. We'll see if this works. Okay, all right. Wow, he's walking away from his computer. Wait, no, Winston, come back. Okay, okay, okay.

I'm not doing that either. We're not doing footsteps. We're not doing walking away. I'm walking from one side of the room to the other uh we just wanted to pop back onto our main feed here for an announcement about a couple of live shows we've got coming up very exciting first uh in december we have a show right here in new york city december 3rd at caveat one of our favorite venues in manhattan and we're doing what we call the Shrimp Lovers Variety Hour.

And as Winston... So we're in character for that, right? Well, as I said, Winston, this is an out-of-character show. Come on! I'm walking, I'm leaving, and I'm slamming all the doors in my apartment. We can't hear it. We can't hear it. We are getting back to our long-form improv roots, performing all seven of us, Shane included.

What? Together as friends, the way it was meant to be. Besides Shane, who else is going to be there all of them? Well, in addition to ourselves, we're also going to have a number of great guests that you will recognize from the show, improvising with us and also doing some other stuff. Yeah, you could say that the some other stuff you just mentioned is the source of this variety show's variety. You can get tickets to our show. Again, it's December 3rd, Saturday, 7 p.m.

You can get tickets at caveat.nyc or at our website, missionisx.space. It's going to be a great show. And of course, we're going to be hanging out with you afterwards yeah we can talk your ear off about like how our reverse herald really like how we managed to get the third piece in the front we can we can corner you our listeners at the show and uh talk about how we do stuff other than mission to zix which will really annoy you uh i just got a message from caveat i guess we somehow unsold all of our tickets oh we owe them money now during this that was a common pre-recorded promo interesting this would happen a lot you know honestly uh we love performing together we have missed being able to perform

together and we thought what better way to get back together than to do it uh live on stage doing brand new stuff uh that will only exist at that show. So you should be there. And guess what? We're also selling live stream tickets. So if you're not in the NYC area and you want to watch from home, go to caveat.nyc and you can get live stream tickets to watch the show. Is that a good idea to watch improv on live stream? I mean, it's better than traveling to go see it. Yeah, absolutely. That's a good point. Oh my gosh,

watching an improv set from the comfort of your own home? I wish that had been a possibility in 2010. Yeah. Yeah. I would have had

a lot more people at all my graduation shows. Seriously though, I'm super psyched and it's going to be fun to kind of stretch our muscles and try something

like out of character. Honestly, I think it's going to be pretty cool. And also, you know, all throughout the pandemic, Mission to Zix became our one and only improv performance opportunity. And so for many of us, this show in December is our first return to a sort of traditional improv performance. And I'm really excited for one.

I, for one, am very excited about doing that. I, for one, am also very excited. Yeah. Yeah, good. But Alden, is this the only time we're going to be performing together? Oh, I'm so glad you asked that, Winston. It's not the only time we'll be performing. No, I was just really interested.

Well, in addition to our show, you may remember about this time last year, we announced a live show at the San Francisco Sketch Festival. Due to an unfortunately enormous COVID spike that holiday season, San Francisco Sketch Fest was rescheduled from last year to this coming January. And we are performing again? Question mark? this coming January and we are performing again question mark we are performing again for the first time January 20th at 8 p.m. at the San Francisco Sketch Fest you can get tickets at sfsketchfest.com or mission to zix.space so that will be in character yes that will be a that will be a tradish lost episode of Mission to Zix. And so, you know, we really have something for everybody. If you are listening to this saying, you know what?

I'm so glad Mission to Zix is over. I'm so glad to never be hearing or seeing those characters again. I can't believe you listened to all of this if you wanted Mission to Zix to be over. Come on out to Caveat. See us do out-of-character improv. And if you think that's not for me and or i live on the west coast come on out and check us out at san francisco sketch fest it's going to be a blast and is that wait but is that the only time we're ever going to be performing live again winston i'm so glad you asked it's

actually not the only time we're going to be performing live because we are in the process of planning some additional dates dates and additional locations in 2023 which we will announce in the coming months as we solidify those plans. So is that it? Is that all the announcements? I'm sort of less glad you asked because it is actually all of our announcements for today.

Oh, okay. Cool. I'm just a guy asking questions. Hey, what I miss? Oh, hey. Oh, geez. Hey, what I miss? Oh, hey. Bye, James Beck, baby. What's going on here? Mujan, we're not doing that. Oh, yeah, sorry, Muj.

Yeah, sorry. How did you do the voice? How'd you get that voice to? Wow. Thank you.
