Our Patreon is now live!
That's right, responding to requests, (yes, we did have them,) we have a new Patreon for the podcast. We have two simple tiers, $1 and $3, with exclusive content that you won't see anywhere else. Byron has already started his Sunday Stories segment, which you don't want to miss, talking about some of the strange things he's gotten into over the years. The first installment was about transporting a drug lord's sharks. Jimmy's already publicly taken his shirt off to promote it and I didn't know it was going to be THAT kind of Patreon but who knows what we'll get up to over there. We appreciate your continued support of what we do.
