Good-day everybody. Welcome to Pints with Aquinas. I have a big giveaway that I'm doing this month to try to get more support for the channel and all that we plan on doing this year. You've probably seen this Pints with Aquinas Beersstein. This month, January, and this month only, we will be giving this Beersdain away for free to anybody who becomes an annual supporter over at matfrad.locals.com.

When you join matfrad.com right now, you'll get access to free audiobooks, exclusive podcasts,

you'll have the ability to ask my guest's questions. You'll also get access to our quarterly

newspaper that's sent to your front door called the Jill. And we even pay the shipping

for that one, by the way, whether you live in Australia or wherever. So we're really excited about that.

We have a lot of big things coming up this year that I can't yet unreveal, but it's going to

cost a lot of money. And so one of the ways to make sure that we can do these things

is by your support, quite frankly. So please become a local supporter. Sign up on your desktop or

laptop, not on your phone, please. When you do that, we'll have a pinned post to the top of locals

showing you how to get this free beerstein. And again, this free

beerstein is only for people who become annual supporters in January. You just have to pay shipping,

but we'll send it wherever. So if you live in Europe or Australia or China, we can send it there

to you as well. Huge thank you. I think locals is actually social media. It's kind of what

social media should have been but never became. So when you join us over on locals, you're not

just getting those free perks that I spoke about. You're also joining a online community

of like-minded Catholics who kind of give each other the benefit of the doubt

and ask for prayers and share their struggles. It's been really quite beautiful. So thank you to those

who would consider supporting matfrad.locals.com. And if you can't do that, you could at least

subscribe. So please subscribe. Hit the bell button. Thanks so much.

Thursday is one of the coolest people I've ever met.

No, I'm so grateful. I got to in person meet him the other day. Actually, I doubled back so I could go and say hi, shake his hand.

Yeah. He's still single ladies, so it might not be the feminine thing to do, but still you could just go up to him and say, what's you doing? And he might, how are you?
