BEER

THE SOUND OF A NOISY VENUE WITH MUSIC AND TALKING.

PHILIP
Okay microphone is on.

OYSTEIN
Fantastic.

PHILIP
So, uhm, by the time you're listening to this, this is probably…

OYSTEIN
January, february. Something like that.

PHILIP
Something like that. I’m too drunk to -

OYSTEIN
So, today, yeah, is the second of December.

PHILIP
And we just released episode one, Elizabeth Barlow.

OYSTEIN
And we just had our launch party here in -

PHILIP
Well, we’re having our launch party, as I think you can hear -

OYSTEIN
Well, that is true, that is what you can hear, yes, in Oslo, and that’s the, you know, people dansing -

PHILIP
Cheers, Oystein.

OYSTEIN
Cheers!

CLINKING

OYSTEIN
Oh, finally here.

PHILIP
Uhm, so, we're sending you good party vibes from Oslo, from snowy Oslo, it's snowing outside, there's a roaring fire in the theatre, uhm, intentional.

LAUGHTER.

OYSTEIN
Yes!

PHILIP
It's a very snug little theatre with a fireplace.

OYSTEIN
It is, it is.

PHILIP
And we just had a, we’ve just done a reading of episode one, uhm and -

OYSTEIN
And some other bits and bobs that haven't actually been out yet on audio so there are things that we’ve recorded tonight that the, at least patrons of the show, uh, can look forward to.

PHILIP
And also we wanted to let you know the next week, or rather in a few days for the next full episode -

OYSTEIN
Yes, that’s right, this Friday -

PHILIP
Uhm, we'll be taking a little break from the usual Amelia schedule, so - but we, we will still be there. But we will be doing a little behind the scenes episode.

OYSTEIN
Yes, a little bonus behind the scenes episode where Alan who plays the Interviewer, Julia who plays Alvina, Pip and myself will be talking about how we would like to disappear and how we would like to resurface.

PHILIP
Uhm, so that's coming up in a few days, uhm, and another thing we wanted to mention is our Patreon account -

OYSTEIN
Yes.

PHILIP
- which you can find under Support us on our website, because we want to keep making the show and we do want to keep making it for free. But obviously, it costs money to make, uhm, and we made the first episodes with a little surplus we had from a, a theatre project, but that money has now run out so we are -

OYSTEIN
Uh, true, we don't have any money. Uh, and we need to do something about that and you can help us, if you want this show to go on, please consider becoming a patron of the show, and what's amazing about becoming a patron, is that as a part of our fan club you get the amazing extra material that we make for each single episode that we put out, including live show recording, so stuff that we did tonight we’ll be making available for you.

PHILIP
So, uhm, all that is available on Patreon, slash, the - or Amelia Project, you will find the links on our website.

OYSTEIN
I think it's patreon.com slash Amelia podcast and I think you've had enough beer for tonight, Pip.

PHILIP
Okay.

OYSTEIN
But, let’s have a bit more.

PHILIP
“Skål”, is it, in Norwegian?

OYSTEIN
That's right, “skål”!

PHILIP
“Skål!”
