Hey everyone, it's Zachary.

Before we start, I just want to share some big news with you.

We've launched a membership program.

It's called Freakonomics Radio Plus.

As a member, you'll get exclusive member-only episodes of Freakonomics Radio every Friday.

Plus, you'll get ad-free versions of every show in the Freakonomics Radio Network,

including the economics of everyday things.

If you don't sign up, you'll still get every regular Frechonomics radio

episode each week just as you always have. But we really hope you'll consider

becoming a member to help support the work you love.

To sign up for Freakonomics Radio Plus,

visit the show page for the Economics of Everyday Things

on Apple Podcasts, or go to Freakonomics.

com slash plus.

Thanks for listening.

Flaming skulls, spiders, demons.

Eagles, daggers, snakes.
