Hey, everybody, it's Jay Keith, and we are rapidly approaching the end of the Max Fund Drive.

Thank you so much for all of you who have supported us in the drive.

This is the one time of the year when we do ask for your financial support to keep the show going.

It has been so great so far,

and there is still time to push us over the top of our goal of 500 new upgrading or boosting

members. As I record this, it's a little hit or miss. I don't know whether we're going to make it.

So please, please do consider joining upgrading or boosting your membership at maximum fund.org slash join.

What happens when we hit that goal of 500?

Well, as you may know, anybody who supports it's in the drive this year gets entered into our listener tournament for a chance to be a guest on a show.

If we get to 500, we will add a second episode of our listener tournament.

You can hear the finals of our current tournament currently in our podcast feed.

But if we get to 500, we will add a second episode.

So that's twice as many chances for you listening right now to be a guest on the show.

Plus, for every 100 people who we have as new upgrading or boosting members, we are

selecting one of them to sit in on a Zoom recording. So right now, since we've passed 400, that's

four listeners. Once we get to 500, that's another listener who could be you who gets to sit

in and listen to a Zoom episode. And of course, we still have got that stretch goal out there of

650 new upgrading or boosting members. If we hit that goal, we will add a live audience show

featuring another episode with our listeners as guests. The listener tournament is so much fun.

It's not just about making the finals. It's about playing a bunch of silly games and puzzles with us, getting to know us better, and getting to really experience the community

of listeners who make Maximum Fun so much fun. Go to maximum fun.org slash join today and make

the magic happen. The drive is ending so soon. In the meantime, you can catch me on the finale
