Dearest listeners, it is Elise and I am here to ask for your support.

Not your financial support, although if you have not donated to your local public radio station,

perhaps you should do that.

But anyway, we are here because we are asking you to help us out in two simple ways.

One, if you're listening in Apple Podcast, please take a moment and leave us a review.

It helps other people to find the show.

And two, tell a friend about the show, or better yet, tell a bunch of friends about the show.
