Okay, that should be just about go for me.

And thank you so much for everybody coming out to the Valentine's show. I very much appreciate it.

This is your chance to spoil me to let me know that you appreciate all the hard work that I have been doing for the

last four months now. By the time you hear this on the podcast, it will be about four

straight months of work beginning up in early November and continuing through till today.

I feel really, really good about it. My health is good and everything is great along there.

Now, unfortunately, before we get into the rest of it, I do have to do some housekeeping,

and that is that I have to talk a little bit, unfortunately,

about the difficult situation that I'm in with this podcast and where everything is right now.

And the short answer is, I can't pay my bills. I can't make enough money consistently to move

out of this place and to get everything going. I can comfortably

pay everything I have now. I can actually save up a little bit of money, but insofar as long-term

plans and everything I'm doing, I can't pay my bills. And when I started this project, I made a commitment to you guys that this stuff was going to be free.

I was going to be putting it out there.

And I have held to that for years now through ups and downs.

But I may not be able to continue to do that.

The simple truth of the matter is that I assumed, and I've asked for, and I've directly said,

that the way that the podcast pays me and that the way that the podcast can remain free,

and I can keep spending so much time on it,

is if you guys spread the message.

Right? It's free, so it has to grow.

It has to keep moving.
