So you think that you tell us how to live our lives

Never question the thoughts no which you're not the core

You're hiding the things that separate and part of the planet

Spend it by it I wonder I wonder I wonder I wonder

What will it take for you to start opening your eyes?

I wonder

Hello and welcome to the atheist experience we're broadcasting live this Sunday July 16th 2017

And I'm your host Tracy Harris and with me this week is co-host Don Baker

Hey you good to be here. Yeah, we're glad to have you

Let me just hit a few announcements and then we can roll right into it

First of all just to say that the atheist experience is sponsored by the atheist community of Austin

Which is a Texas nonprofit educational organization dedicated to the separation of church and state and promoting positive atheism

If you would like to make a tax deductible donation to the ACA you can do so at the website at atheisthyphencommunity.org

I'm clicking the donate button on top of the page and I just wanted to know it I watched last week's intro where Russell kind of led in

I wasn't sure how much we could talk about the survey but he mentioned it so I think it's okay to mention that we did put on our recent viewer survey questions about sponsored content versus donations and we did get a pretty hefty responsive people saying that they like the idea of donating

So because of that you're probably going to hear in the intro announcements frequently coming going forward

The note that we could donate that you can donate some people mentioned that they didn't know that you could donate

So we just felt like it would be smart for us to go that route if people prefer that to sponsored content which is not to say that there may never be sponsored content

But in the meantime we're kind of following up on what we learned from the survey

And so there's that and I do think also that they do a little donate button now that you can that'll come on on the show

I think it comes on the show and also I can see that on by me okay on this side there is the thermometer and you can see there's significant improvement

Yeah I'm really shocked at the level of feedback we've gotten from the viewer I think is very very nice to see that kind of support
