Hello, everybody. This is Jennifer Metteris. And before I get started with the episode today,

I'd just like to take care of the usual housekeeping. As I've already mentioned in previous episodes,

I've put paid requests on hold for the time being. When I get through my backlog,

I shall start up all over again. Until then, I'll be working through that list with the

and I cannot express how very much I appreciate all of his hard work.

join the Patreon, you will get new episodes as soon as I record them rather than waiting until

they are released. And they will be ad-free. So if you do become a patron,

I would very much appreciate it, especially this week because next week I will be going to New York

City once again and this time I will definitely be going to the 9-11 museum. I actually have my
