Hey everyone, Brian here.

A quick favor.

We're conducting an audience survey.

We'd be really grateful if you could take just a few minutes and answer our survey.

This is the kind of thing that's sort of an engineering and marketing necessity to make

You get to talk about yourself.

Please visit survey.prx.org slash Skeptoid.

To take the survey today, that's survey.prx.org slash S-K-E-P-T-O-I-D.
