Hey, it's Max Fun Drive, our annual push to get new folks to support us and ask existing members to think about upping their annual pledge.

The best reason to become a member is that good feeling of supporting something you care about.

But the next biggest perk is that all members at any level get access to a huge library of bonus content from across the network.

This year, we at Max Film recorded something we're calling Maximum Sidebar, where all three hosts

did a little show and tell in the areas of self-care, technology, and food. What you're about to

hear is just a few highlights from that ridiculous and delightful

conversation. Enjoy! Remember that there's a lot more where this came from for all MaxFund members. Head to

Maximumfund.org slash join by May 1st, 2026 to help us meet our membership goals. Thank you.

No, and look, growing up, like, mom always made this, like, uh, uh, he would make a marinated shrimp recipe that involved capers. And they were always just sort of a thing you kind of worked around. And I don't know they super added a whole bunch to it because like it already had like craft Italian dressing and all these other sort of vinegar things but um you know I think

again these Lilliput capers like this is what capers are supposed to be all right noted
