Hey everybody. Welcome to the Muckraig podcast. I'm Nick Houselman. And this is an announcement to let you know that we are going to be doing a new series called The Weekender over on Patreon that will appear every Friday. And this is a little sneak preview so you can get a handle on what it's like and why you'd want to go over there and join the Patreon and be part of that community, which has been incredible and amazing with a lot of people there and a lot of great conversations.

So here it is. Check it out. And feel free to check out the actual Patreon as well at patreon.com slash muckrake podcast.

Hey, everybody. Welcome to the McCrack Podcast. I'm J.D.Saxton with Nick Halsaman. It's the weekend. We did it, Nick. We did. Is it really the weekend? Is it time? What is, again, what is time?
