Hey folks, this is Kevin.

On this week's episode of Risk, you'll hear Brian Russell.

So many knives.

Like a wall, just...

And I should leave. That's a lot of knives, but it's been so long.

Not a cock-block by a wall of knives.

That and more.

But before that, I just want to say something about our Patreon,

that you can find at patreon.com slash risk.

I think some folks might be assuming that we've recovered here at Risk

from the financial crisis we had during the 2020 start of the pandemic then.

And that is very truly not the case.

We are still working our butts off to get to a place of breaking even.

You know, we're still not back to being able to pay our staff members

what they so, so thoroughly deserve.

We're still hanging by the seat of our pants here.

And so soon, we want to do some brainstorming with you, the fans,

on new ways we might be able to get more of you over to patreon.com slash risk.

Or those of you who are already there to increase your donation amounts.

But for this week, let me just say, there's so, so, so many amazing bonus stories,

conversation with staff and storytellers, my own personal check-ins,

the ad-free versions of the episodes that drop there before the versions on the free feeds with the ads in them.
