I'll keep this short. We have a Patreon. And lately the amount on that Patreon has gone down.

0:05.7

While income from live shows and merch do obviously help, the Patreon is still the main way that

0:11.0

we make this show and pay all the people involved, both behind the scenes and, you know, in front of

0:17.1

the scenes. Is that the phrase? So if you are able to and have not yet supported us on Patreon,

0:22.8

please consider it. It helps the show exist. And we have all sorts of cool rewards, like

Director's Notes on every episode, Zoom Hangs with the Cast and Crew, add free versions of every
