Welcome to The Hen Report. This is Jasmine Singer. This is Mary Ann Sullivan.

And we're here from Our Hen House to Your Hen House. Rising Anxieties, which is part of the Our Hen House world, comes out on Tuesdays, the hen report, which is this on Thursdays,

and the long-form interview on Fridays. Bonus for flock members comes out on Mondays, and we've

had some really cool bonus lately. So if you are not in the flock, think about joining at

our henhouse.org slash support. We are a non-profit, so it's all tax deductible to the full extent of the law.

And if you are in the flock and you're not listening to your bonus content and you have

questions about that, then drop us a line at info at our henhouse.org. We are a podcast and we're on

YouTube. Hit subscribe, hit like and comment wherever you listen. We need to cut that intro. I YouTube, hit subscribe, hit like, and comment wherever you listen.
