I then provide an update on the development of our new product, number nine. I explain that I have been working on making my own vegetable stock as a key ingredient for this batch. I express my excitement about the outcome of number nine with Uncle Brother's Vegetable Stock and the addition of smoked and roasted chilies and garlic. I mention that there are still a few steps left to complete before transitioning to the commercial kitchen. \n\nNext, I apologize for the delay in shipping out the last few orders and thank everyone for their patience. I assure them that the shipment will be sent out as soon as the batch is finished. Furthermore, I give a shoutout to a customer named Bill P. who suggested reducing the packing materials in our shipments. I share the story of how I obtained recycled materials from a local co-op, highlighting our commitment to the environment. \n\nMoving on, we discuss our efforts to promote eco-friendly shipping practices. We have been using plain boxes and taping over the branding on Amazon boxes to make them more sustainable. I express my desire for Amazon to reconsider their branding on shipping boxes, and suggest starting a campaign to encourage other shippers to use plain boxes as well. \n\nAfterwards, I give a shoutout to Ms. Blatt, our first employee, and a long-time subscriber Jeff H. who upgraded his membership to a two-bottle plan. I also acknowledge Rashaun F. for joining as a new all-star and bringing in five more people to sign up. As a result of Rashaun's efforts, we have created a reward program for our all-stars. Referring five people who sign up within six weeks will earn an upgrade or a free bottle of our sauce, and referring ten people will result in the all-star's next payment being covered by us. \n\nIn the next part of the conversation, I give a special shoutout to my dear sweet auntie, Diane, who is celebrating her birthday. I mention that I need to wrap up the conversation quickly as I have to attend her birthday celebration. Before ending, I announce that we have reviews available for all-star sign-ups and share a surprise for those who leave a review. I express deep gratitude to everyone who has joined and supported our efforts. \n\nFinally, I mention that I have a special task to complete and need to get back to work. I assure listeners that I will finish up a batch and send out the samples by the end of the week. I sign off as Uncle Brother, the maker of award-winning all sauce and a radical self-care extremist.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/66ab3534-53bb-4159-891e-0c85abe56bcf/IhhlOo0BloS0jfxF72r7NZmI.jpeg"}
