0:00.0	Welcome to the Making Sense Podcast. This is Sam Harris. Just a note to say that if you're
0:12.1	hearing this, you are not currently on our subscriber feed and will only be hearing
0:16.2	the first part of this conversation. In order to access full episodes of the Making Sense
0:20.7	Podcast, you'll need to subscribe at samharis.org. There you'll find our private RSS feed
0:26.1	to add to your favorite pod catcher, along with other subscriber-only content. We don't run ads
0:31.2	on the podcast, and therefore it's made possible entirely through the support of our subscribers.
0:35.8	So if you enjoy what we're doing here, please consider becoming one.
0:46.9	Welcome to the Making Sense Podcast. This is Sam Harris. As I mentioned in the last house keeping,
0:53.6	there is a subscription policy change happening on the podcast. This will be going into effect on Wednesday, May 1st.
1:03.9	So in order to have access to subscriber-only content on my website, you will need an active monthly
1:12.4	subscription. This means that those of you who never subscribed monthly or whose subscriptions have
1:18.2	lapsed and this includes anyone who used to support the podcast through Patreon will need to start a
1:25.2	monthly subscription at samharis.org. Now as always, if you cannot afford to support the podcast,
1:33.3	you know I don't want money to be the reason why you can't get access to my content. So if you
1:38.8	really can't afford a monthly subscription, you need only email us at info at samharis.org,
1:44.3	and we will open a free account for you. But you will need to either subscribe or send us that email
1:52.2	in order to get behind the paywall going forward. And again, that change starts May 1st.
1:59.2	That includes access to the live town hall. The Ask Me Anything episode of the podcast that's coming
2:04.4	up on May 9th. That's in Los Angeles and that will be videotaped and streamed live on my website
2:13.1	at 8 o'clock Pacific time. And this will be interesting. This is an experiment and if it works,
2:19.9	we may do all of our AMA episodes this way. We will see what value is added with a live audience.
2:27.2	Anyway, those tickets sold out I think in 20 minutes. So that's great. I look forward to meeting you all
