Micah, I love our listeners.

Me too.

We asked 500 of you to support OTP by becoming sustaining members

so that we could unlock a very generous $15,000 matching grant

from George Hanby, a retired school teacher.

And we did that.

And then some.

We ultimately got 750 of you to step up. Thank you so much.

And now we have one last goal, the last one until Christmas. Only a small percentage of you guys actually do donate to keep our show running, because I get it. We're always there. That said, you all know by now that WNYC

has lost its federal funding, like $3 million, and so we're asking 250 more of the faithful,

I mean you, to quickly step up and send some support really doesn't matter how much by the end of the month

because every little bit helps.

And if you give $12 a month or more, we'll send you an On the Media hat.

It's blue and it's got the On the Media logo in orange right on the front.

I think it's pretty cool.

I wear mine all the time. To get your own, all you got to do is orange right on the front. I think it's pretty cool. I wear mine all the time.

To get your own,

all you got to do is go to on the media.org slash donate.

Thanks for your support, everyone.

Enjoy the show.

Several men have been dubbed the shadow president by the media,

but one is the shadowiest of them all.
