MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK

Support the show for $7 a month and get access to extended episodes and patron-only bonus content. I try to post 4-5 episodes a month, and would love to increase my output, but the only way I can do that is with your support. It's cheaper than a streaming service and more rewarding too!
