Hey there, beautiful people. Welcome to fan time, the podcast for all those complex and

complicated conversations about the great areas in our lives. I'm journalist and editor

Trevelle Anderson. I am writer, producer and journalist, Jerry Hill. Coming up on the

show today, we haven't done this in a little while, so we thought it was time for us to

give you a what was said email where we're getting back to episode where we're getting

back to your emails, I should say. That was a lot of face, Trevelle. Wow. I mean, you

fucking up and we just we not even 30 seconds into it. Listen, it's been a it's been a rough

day. Let me tell you, I've been listen, listen, okay. I literally got it from taking a

nap about three minutes before we got on zoom. So we're going to get. Well, congratulations.

It can't be that bad if you got to take a nap. That's a good thing in my head. Well,

what I'm calling a nap was like lying down on the floor and like doing a breathing exercise.

Anyway, we're going to get into emails and a little bit later we will get into our dishonorable

mentions. But before we do that, wanted to just give a special moment of pause to say

thank you to all of the folks who were a part of the max fund drive over the last couple

of weeks. And also really like I think a lot of us at max fund were kind of surprised

by how many people we saw like gifting memberships to other people. That was a really, really

cool thing to see. So thank you for either joining the the fan tie fam upgrading your membership,

extending it or gifting a membership to someone else. It's a really cool thing. And we're really

excited that we beat our show goal. And then we beat our push goal for the show as well.

So incredibly grateful to all of the folks who joined our fan tie fam over the last couple

of weeks or extended your membership or gifted your membership to someone else. It really

means a lot to us. We appreciate it. Yes. So stay tuned for all of that special goodness
