    UPDATE 6/2025: I became a paid member of the Patreon shortly after it was announced in 2023. In September 2024, I sprung for the annual subscription. However, since I didn’t auto renew, they cut all my access to the content I had paid for through September 2025. PLUS ALL THESE ADS DESPITE PAYING TO LISTEN???
