Hi, this is Jennifer, the producer of Talking Feds, and I wanted to take a moment before

episode begins to tell you about the exclusive content we post on our Talking Feds Patreon.

Unlike a lot of other podcasters, we don't just post ad-free episodes or outtakes.

We post exclusive interviews and even folding episodes.

And for just $5 a month or $3 for students, this is available to you.

To get a sense of what's on there, in the last two weeks alone, we published great interviews

with people like Dushandru, the president of Minnesota Public Radio, a former Ronny King

prosecutor, Lauren Smittleton, and what to anticipate with the George Floyd case, and

We also have a full length Supreme Court episode, which is an analysis of the final 10 arguments

for the term that were broadcasted live in May.

And if you are interested in a preview, we are making the whole Patreon site free for

48 hours, this Wednesday and Thursday.

To check it out, and we hope you will subscribe, where patreon.com slash talking feds.

That's patreon.com slash talking feds.
