Radio Manu, Papa Tzango.

Hey Chris. My name is Tom. I'm sending this in

because I think I represent possibly an atypical portion of your demographics. I'm 60 years old.

I've been having sex with the same woman for the last 40 years. I've never taken psychedelics

and I love your podcast. Enjoy. Bye bye. Thank you so much Tom. Atypical Tom.
