Pre-order your copy of Silvia's Blood and Moon Graffiti on vinyl!

https://certifiedcrucial.com/truthshop

We want to bring The Truth back to your podcast feed, but in order to do that we need your help. For a limited time, we are pressing two of our most popular stories to vinyl, and we’re taking pre-orders through June 22. The album cost is $40, and all of the profits will go to making a new season of The Truth. 

And if you don't have $40, we're also selling buttons, stickers, and a brand new t-shirt design based on our logo. So if you love our stories and want to hear more, help us make a brand new season by pre-ordering your very own vinyl pressing of Silvia's Blood and Moon Graffiti right now. We're also taking donations, every little bit helps. Thank you so much!
