Arvin and his never ending ingenuity has found a possible way to drastically cut the cost of shipping for the t-shirts. There are a few bugs to work out and due to an issue with the warehouse of the t-shirt distributor the shirts are a few days behind. So, as we wait for the shirts we are going to try to work the new shipping costs into the system.
As far as the buttons and stickers, as we said in episode 23, we are just out of money for the upfront cost of those as we spent all our cash on the t-shirts. If we recoup the cost of the shirts we will be able to offer more merchandise and maybe even a few other shirt designs. We just have to make sure we are not going to loose all our money before we invest any more.
Also, regarding my moving, I am not going to be terribly far and since my family is still in Windsor, I am going to be making trips as it is. During those trips I will make sure to have enough time to do a quick recording of a podcast since Arvin is willing to do all the set up and take down of the set (most of which he does now anyway). As far as Arvin coming to visit me, that has been talked about beyond WLTP as well, since we are friends and are hoping to be able to still hang out a bit during my absence.
So don't worry about us not doing a podcast because we can't get together, worry that we won't do a podcast because we are both too busy, (just a little joke at our expense seeing as we have been a bit behind in our episodes while we are still in the same city).
Thanks for all your patience and continued support of WLTP,
Ben
