If you want to support the show and get the episodes early and ad free, head on over to

freeman Beyond the Wall.com forward slash support. I want to explain something right now if you

support me through Substack or Patreon. You have access to an RSS feed that you can plug into any pod catcher, including Apple,

and you'll be able to listen to the episodes through there.

If you support me through Subscrib Star, Gumroad, or on my website directly,

I will send you a link where you can download the file, and you can listen to it any way you wish.

I really appreciate the support everyone gives me.

It keeps the show going.

It allows me to basically put out an episode every day now, and I'm not going to stop.

I'm just going to accelerate.

I think sometimes you see that I'm putting out two, even three a day.

And yeah, can't do it without you.

So thank you for the support.

Head on over to freeman beyond the wall.com forward slash support and do it there.

Thank you.
