| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. This is Jennifer Matarise. And before I get started with the episode today, |
| 0:05.0 | I'd just like to take care of the usual housekeeping. As I've already mentioned in previous |
| 0:09.1 | episodes, I've put paid requests on hold for the time being. When I get through my backlog, |
| 0:14.1 | I will start up all over again. Until then, I'll be working through that list with the |
| 0:18.4 | occasional episode of my choice. The subject from this particular episode was requested by Kyle, and I'd like to thank them for the request, and for the donation. |
| 0:26.9 | If you'd still like to help support the podcast in another way, you can do so with a one-time donation through PayPal at disaster area at mail.com, on Venmo at Disaster Area Podcast, on Cash App at Disaster Area Pod, or on a per-episode |
| 0:39.6 | basis through Patreon at www. patreon.com slash disaster area podcast. A per-episode donation of |
| 0:47.7 | even as little as a dollar an episode can help me do things like pay the rent, keep the lights |
| 0:52.1 | on, keep Professor in whatever dried internal organs |

| 1:38.0 | which I will be posting the links to all of the sources for the last three episodes as soon as I'm done with this |
| 1:46.6 | episode or as soon as it goes up on the live feed anyway. And in the episode description, |
| 1:52.1 | wherever you might be listening to the podcast. So all of the sources will be there. If I don't |
| 1:56.9 | mention them in the episode, they will be listed right alongside everything else. |
| 2:02.3 | I'd also like to add the same note that I gave for the last two episodes |
