Yeah, let me just ask a quick question as we start here.

I just wanted to check in because, you know, of course,

this is not a donation pitch, but I do ask for donations.

Is it too much? Is it too little?

Is it the right way or is it the wrong way?

Is it annoying? Is it a plus?

Is it nice to see somebody openly asking for what they want?

In terms of asking for donations,

is there a way that I could do it better

or just to get your feedback?

Is it like, because I remember I used to watch these shows

on, I can't remember what it was called, but there was this woman Goldie.

It was a show in Buffalo, I guess, in the 80s.

It was a public show and they used to request donations or want donations.

And I found it incredibly grating and annoying,

and it would seem to just go on and on.

So they would do like Monte Python once in a while,

or they would do faulty towers, marathons or whatever.

And so, you know, it was stuff that I wanted to see,

stuff that I was interested in.

But man, alive, it just went on and on.

It went on for hours.
