Hey Kitty, time to eat your profits. Good kitty, look how fat you've gotten. That's the sound of some

workplace pension providers paying their shareholders instead of you. At people's pension,

we don't have shareholders to pamper. That's why over the last five years, we've given

£100 million back to our members instead.

Oh, you've broken the cat flap again. People's Pension. Now that's a pension with purpose.

Hey, this is Heather from the Renaissance English History Podcast, the longest continuously running indie history podcast,

and this is the spring fundraising drive. Many of you probably listen to National Public Radio in the U.S. If you do, you know that every spring and autumn, they do a fund drive, where they do

abbreviated versions of their programs and then ask you for money. So that's what I'm going to do this week.

Every day this week, I will be releasing a podcast minicast, a shorter version of my podcast, and also

telling you about why you should support the show financially. The truth is, I can't do this show

without your support, whether it's listening to the show,

leaving reviews, telling your friends, sharing the show on your social medias, or yes, giving money.

There are already close to 40 lovely patrons right now, and I am incredibly grateful to them for

their support. But I also need to raise that number.

And my goal is to raise it to at least 100 patrons on Patreon this week.

I've got some great rewards and incentives, including gift cards at tudorfair.com, my online shop,

Tudor Summit transcripts, TudorCon tickets, and even a year of

treasures from Best, the Tudor Treat Box. So I'm asking that you support the show through

Patreon. If you've never heard of Patreon before, it's a website that lets you support content

creators like me on a recurring basis. I ask for support on a per episode basis. I normally

do two episodes a month. Plus, you can put a limit on it so you're not charged more than that.
