Before I begin today's episode of Potterless, I have two very special announcements. First,

I hope be featured in someone else's podcast. The Seattle Files is a podcast by my friend Chris Allen, where he discusses Seattle local history

with improv and stand-up comedians in the Seattle community.

Tomorrow, an episode will drop where the two of us discuss the history of this guy who lived

in the woods and fought people off.

It literally sounds like an action movie, but it really happened in real life.

It's fantastic and drops tomorrow. So just search the Seattle Files on any podcasting app and you'll find it.

Secondly, we reached our goal on Patreon, which means shirts. So there's going to be two new tiers on

Potterless's Patreon page. There will be a $2 tier where I send out stickers to people, and there will be a $10

tier where you get a shirt. So that will take a little bit of time for the stickers to get

designed and come in, for the shirts get designed and come in. But in the very new future,

there will be new tiers on potterless, where if you pledge to that, you'll get new stuff. So

you can either update your pledge or start a new one if you

aren't or just not pledge. You don't have to give any money to this podcast. But if you want to,

that's great. And I put all the money back into it for things like audio equipment and other editing

software and stuff to make the podcast better. But yes, the plan is to have the $10 tier get you a shirt and then also once a month do like a live Q&A stream where throughout the month you can email in questions and stuff like that. And then I will answer all of them during a live stream. You can ask behind the scene stuff or just random questions, whatever. Or during the live stream, you can ask any questions that you have. So very excited about that. So feel free to follow us on all the social media to see what the shirts look like and when they're live and all kind of stuff like that. But I'm just very excited to make progress there. And of course, thanks to our newest Patreon supporters. So first, a special shoutout by James Caneos, who dedicates his shoutout to his three-year anniversary with his girlfriend, Lindsay Battelle. Happy anniversary to James and Lindsay. And a huge shout-out to our newest producer-level patrons. Emily Wiffin has upgraded to be a producer. Andreas Ozelby is back as a producer, and Chandra Cruz is a new producer. So thank you guys all so much for making this podcast exist. And obviously, continual thanks to our already existing producer-level patrons,
