Hello, Year of Polygamy listeners and friends.

0:16.1

It's been a year since I've talked to you all on this subject, and as you know, we wrapped up the year of polygamy podcast with 100 episodes on the principle of plural marriage and Mormonism. So much has happened

0:28.3

since then in just a year. I plan to update you each year with several episodes on the state

0:34.0

of Mormon polygamy just because the landscape of polygamy changes so quickly,

0:38.2

and so much has happened since we stopped recording. I could keep recording each week on this subject,

0:43.8

but because it's such a heavy topic and I've really shifted my efforts on this topic towards

0:49.8

activism, it's difficult for me to find the time. Of course, we have the Color of Heaven

0:54.2

podcast, which has been wildly successful, and I hope to record more of the story of woman

0:58.8

podcasts, but the research on that is bonkers, time-consuming. This month, I'm going to be

1:04.1

releasing a total of six episodes on the subject of polygamy. We have historians back. We even have a woman from Islam discussing plural marriage in her culture.

1:15.0

We have Mormon fundamentalists who have left their group.

1:17.1

And even my husband, my elusive husband that nobody really knows anything about is going to.

1:21.6

He's actually volunteered begrudgingly to come on the podcast.

1:25.0

So that's what to expect this month. For now, thanks for listening,

1:29.9

and please consider a monthly donation. I don't podcast full time, although I wish that I could.

1:35.2

I have a regular job and a family and podcasts in my free time, and it can often make things

1:41.3

really tricky for my friends and family. So if you want to show that these efforts are worth those sort of sacrifices,

1:47.4

please consider a donation.

1:49.4

It makes things a lot easier to bring you this content that I produce, edit, and record all by myself.

1:54.7

Thanks for listening, and it's nice to see you after a year of polygamy.

1:57.7

I hope that since we last spoke, your year has been filled with health,

2:01.2

happiness, and love.
