There's an entry level for support and voting privileges.

We had a little poll this week on future episodes.

Mid-level for early access and higher audio quality for our shows.

And the upper-level, best friend level for early access,

the higher quality, monthly exclusive content, remastered episodes, playlists via Spotify,

and more.

We have some very neat idea about November and possibly December exclusive content.

So get on board, patreon.com slash political beats my name is scott bertram you find me on

twitter at scott bertram and uh still with us uh sometimes there's lineup changes with these

things you know how it goes you've been in bands but jeff is still here my tag team partner

jeff blare standing by jeff how are you well i'm actually a little tired i haven't i. I haven't really slept in 72 hours, Scott, but I'll tell you this, I've been taking a really good look at the podcast, and I've been taking it apart and putting it back together and piecing it together. And I figured it out. I figured it out. We can take this episode, the last part of it's really weak, so we can slice it up, but then we can take the middle part, move it to the ending, and then we can double it up for effect, and it'll be our

best episode ever.

I do think your 18th version of the last podcast was the finest version of the 32 you put together.

Trial and error, man, trial and error.

At esoteric CD is where to find find jeff on twitter and back for a

return engagement for part two because i don't know what we do with a different guest uh is a charles
