I'm Steve Boyette, and this is PodRunner.

Hey everybody, welcome to a strong hour of motivating music for your workout at 140 beats per minute,

for a mix called, Out the Gate.

It's a jump-start mix, so the first track has got some extra go-jews to get you on your way.

courtesy of serious heavy metal power cords with the Sonali mix of my mind from Serveer.

After that, things get a little different.

Usually I try to make the transitions from one track to the next as smooth as possible.

I'm your DJ and it's kind of my job.

But also to keep it about your workout and not about the music.

But in this mix, even though the transitions are smooth,

there's a definite mood change from track to track.

But instead of being jarring, it works, because each track seems to acquire more resolve,

more determination, things get brighter, and things get fiercer.

I think these tone shifts add another layer of intensity and motivation.

I hope that you think so too.

Let me know.

The reason that PodRunner can keep making your workouts more efficient and more fun

is because of listener support.

Even in normal times, only about 1% of listeners ever make a donation.

But these are definitely not normal times.

And for a while now, donations have been at record lows,

and cancellations of monthly contributions are at a record high.
