Hi, Crime Junkies. I'm Ashley Flowers and I'm Britt and you guys we did it after many many requests

We have started a patreon

And there are a couple of levels but at the bare minimum for just $5 a month

You can get an extra crime junkie full-length episode

Yeah, if you give up one fancy coffee a month or if you like me a fancy tea

You can have another happy commute to or from work and it's not just episodes

You guys were giving away stickers and window clings which are so much better than bumper stickers by the way and we're doing mini

Soats merch giveaways and the thing that so many people have asked for our theme as a ringtone

So if after today's episode you need an extra fix go to patreon.com

That's PAT r-e-o-n dot com and search for crime junkie. There's already two episodes in there waiting for you

And a preemptive thank you to anyone who goes and helps support the show you guys are amazing

But it reminded me of the good old days when I would just deep dive into cases for enjoyment and not just for podcast research
