Hello, and welcome to Serious Inquiries. Only this is episode 387. I'm Thomas Smith, and

I'm already joined by Stormy Decises, Dr. Alan Smurbeck. How are you doing, Alan?

I am Splendiferous, glad to be on.

When I just say you're better than Splendiferous, you've made me Splendiferous because in an effort

to hopefully have all of our episodes recorded, all of our ducks in a row, as they say before,

Lydia and I head out to with Remi, by the way, head out to QED, take a little bit of a trip.

That's a tall order, getting all that recorded ahead of time. If I've ever been able to successfully

do that, but in an effort to do that, I mentioned to you that, oh yeah, we're trying to get

this done. So Stormy, we're already going to do this Q&A, but here's Stormy with the most

organized, amazing, like, hey, I got the questions ready. Here's some summaries of them.

Here's all this stuff. I just want to thank you so much for being amazing at this.

I can't tell you how much this helps, and I'm really looking forward to these episodes.

So not only is Stormy amazing for those reasons, also I hear we have some developments on the

little library donations you wanted to do.

Yeah, so if anybody is new with this episode, I've been trying to get banned books into

little free libraries in, you know, near schools or libraries where they're being banned.

So I put out a call and a few people responded and said that they live near a school or library

that's banning books or restricting them or something like that, and that they would place

them. So I've worked with these people and set up an Amazon wish list, and I'm going

to give you URLs that'll take you to that wish list, and it's just a list of commonly

banned books. You can buy one, send it to them, and they will put it in a little free

library. Kids and teens and adults will have open and free access to these books.
