0:00.0	Hey, everybody. Joe here from The Lines Led by Donkey's Podcast. If you enjoy what we do here

0:08.3	Just a $1 donation gets you access to bonus episodes, or discord, and regular episodes before
0:13.2	everybody else. If you don't need an elevated level, you get even more bonus content.
0:17.1	A digital copy of my book, The Hulligans of Canned Har, and a sticker from my T-Spring Store.
0:21.3	Our show will always be, at free and as totally supported driven, we use that money to pay our bills,

0:30.9	Crescent, the Flint Water Fund, and the Halo Trust. Consider joining the Legion of the Old

1:35.5	like 9-11, which we all promised we would never forget. So, in fact, that if you're not on Facebook,

1:46.2	are barbecuing, having fun, it's about to date our friends, our brethren's died in this dumb
