2022-08-09 02:32:48 +0000 UTCI’m curious as to know how often your profile gets reported on Facebook. Not sure if it’s knowable on your end but I presume it gets reported somewhat frequently.

2022-08-05 16:05:30 +0000 UTCDang, just for kicks, I looked back to the first episode I downloaded (I've saved them all, who knows why) and the first time I listened was 01-17-2013!!!! You are coming up on 10 years!

2022-08-05 13:50:40 +0000 UTCThanks for the shot-out! But I've been a supporter pretty much since episode 1, back when they were each exactly 30 mins long, haha. Patreon's interface is just so bad, the only way I found to change out my out credit card to my new one, was to unsubscribe and resubscribe.

2022-08-04 22:48:14 +0000 UTCOK, kittens. I live "next door" to Pine Ridge. The person in question, Matt (2-t's) Monfore, is a well-known dundertw*t in these parts and the Tribal Government probably did him a favor and saved his nose from being relocated to another part of his face. The downside is that he's now going to be going into our university's museum to ask why there are still monkeys since our state government is probably going to be gaga over it.
