Hello everyone and welcome to Talk Nurdy. Today is Monday January 28th and I'm

your host Kara Santa Maria. You know I say it every week and I'll say it again

Talk Nurdy is and will always be 100% free to download.

And the only reason that we can stay afloat

is because of the support from listeners just like you.

If you want to show your support for the show,

there's a lot of ways you can do it, and only just a couple of them cost money.

Like going to Patreon.com and pledging on a per episode basis.

I want to give a shout out to the top patrons this week including Rob Schreck Pedro M Rosario Barbosa

Phil T Bear the zombie drummer David J. E. Smith Jeffrey Perez Charles Payette Jafeafe, Gabrielle, Felipe,

Hermio Gonzalez, Brian Holden, and Jeffrey Sewell.

Thank you guys so very much.

But you know, there's a bunch of other ways that you can also support.

You can visit the TalkNurdy

merch.com website to shop for some cool talk nerdy swag. You can rate or

review on Apple Podcast, Google Podcast Podcast, Stitcher, anywhere that you, you know, get your

podcast.

And lastly, you can just tell your friends and family about the show that's honestly the

most important thing that you can do is get the word out.

Thanks in advance.

All right guys, this week it is a really fascinating episode.

I interview the author of you a natural history Dr William B Irvine.
