Hello Heaton here guys the response to Judge Week has been tremendous

Thank you so much we have officially crested the 500 patron mark and left it

Well behind us with over 520 patrons now. It is amazing. I am thrilled. I am

thrilled with the quality of the podcast this week. I am so happy that people

were excited to get past the partisan bickering to actual thoughtful

understanding of how jurisprudence works. I'm thrilled. Over the weekend, I will write down

all the names of new patrons who signed up this week and draw one of their names who I will send a physical gavel to and call Judge in perpetuity.

That will be announced next week. Thank you all the listeners of the show who have

taken that additional step to become a patron of it. I am indebted to you. And if you were

already a patron of the program prior to Judge Week,

and you're lusting after a gavel,

you might still nab one without going through the hassle

of having to apply for a gavel license or worse hiring a black market gavel smuggler to sneak

you one from over the border.

Anyone already on Patreon who increases their support this week or next, you will be entered in a second drawing from an equally illustrious hat.

And someone from that will be awarded a gavel and honorary judgeship as well.

Many of you have already done so and I am very very

appreciative of that. Thank you and I'll continue that through next week so

you've got time. And on that note next week I will be as I am right now in

Oakland, California.

Why?

I'll tell you why.
