Hey there friends and welcome to talk nerdy I I am your host, Kara Santa Maria, and can you believe that we are already on episode number 25?

Man, the time really flies. I feel like I just started this podcast and it was almost half a year ago now.

Guys, I want to thank you so much for your support of Talk Nurdy. It comes in various ways. I thank you for your support on

Twitter and Facebook, your comments, your suggestions, your brilliant conversation.

I also thank you for downloading each episode and

listening to us each week. I thank you for your support rating and reviewing on both

iTunes and Stitcher. I also thank all of you who take the time to

visit my website kara Santa Maria.com make purchases from the TalkNurdy online store and also make donations to help keep Talk

Nurdy 100% free for everyone to enjoy.

So I want to give a shout out to a bunch of special people who made

donations within the last week. The first is Rick Richardson from Elma Washington. I also want to thank

Damon Wellner from right here in Los Angeles, California.

I want to thank Michael Bandsen who made a donation all the way from Denmark.

I also want to thank Joachim Valeski who made a donation from Germany. Let me see if I'm pronouncing this right.

Wachim it's either Wauki or Valevsky.

Hopefully I got that right.

I also want to thank Mohammed Kreme who made a donation from Paris, France,

and Julian Mariani, whose donation came in

from New South Wales in Australia. I also want to thank Michael S Bigelow who makes a recurring
