Hey folks, this is Jamar Tisby.

I am recording this on Giving Tuesday,

but every day is a great day to give to pass the mic.

Listen, we've been doing this podcast,

me and my co-host, Tyler Burns,

for seven years now since 2013,

early 2014, if you will,

but we've been doing it a long time,

almost every week, and you are why we do it.

We are listener-supported,

and we want to serve you.

We want to serve the people.

We want to serve the culture.

So all I'm saying is, if you've tuned in,

if you've found it helpful,

then would you consider becoming a patron of the podcast?

You can do it for as little as $1 an episode,

or give whatever you want.

If you become a patron, you support us

on a monthly basis to do this work.

We've got a podcast retreat coming up.

We're going down to Tyler's favorite place,
