Hey, it's Hannah, from the Stoop.

Thank you so much to everyone who's already donated to Radio Topje's Fall

fundraiser.

And if you haven't donated to the network before,

you might wonder where exactly your dollars go.

Well, the short answer is your donation goes to the stoop

and all the shows in our network

so we can keep making the audio that you love listening to.

The longer answer is it takes an investment of time, energy,

and, yes, money to create even a single episode.

There's hours of brainstorming and research

and reaching out to interviewees,

then interviewing them, then going to get other tape,

writing scripts, editing, sound design, all of that can take weeks and sometimes

months from the time we start thinking about an episode to the time that it lands in your podcast feed.

Your donations make this all possible so if you haven't here's the time to do it.

Head to radiotopia.F.M. slash donate to make a tax deductible contribution

and support the stoop.

And when you do, you'll receive a special curated

playlist from radiotopia that we put together just for you.
