Hello, I'm Dan McDowell, long-time professional broadcaster. Why subscribe to our Patreon podcast?

Well, perhaps you support our struggle to get out from under the oppressive thumb of the man.

Or objectively, if you sign up at patreon.com slash the dumb zone, you'll get the two episodes per week that are available on all podcast platforms, like this one,

plus an additional two episodes each week that are exclusive to Patreon.

So subscribing on Patreon gets you four episodes per week.
