  • Hello, Smash Boom Besties, Molly here.

  • Usually things at Smash Boom Best are pretty light and breezy, lemon squeezy.

  • But right now, it's more like windy and cold and your lemon has mold.

  • Because public media is threatened like never before.

  • Funding for shows like ours is up in the air.

  • To keep going, we really need you to step up right now.

  • It's pretty urgent, so if you listen, we are 100% talking to you.

  • Head to smashboom.org slash donate right now.

  • It takes less than a minute.

  • I know what you're thinking.

  • Smash Boom Best is public media?

  • The people behind debates like sneezing versus farting and jelly beans versus actual beans are public media people?

  • Yeah, that's why at Smash Boom Best, you don't just hear silly arguments.

  • You also learn how to back up your points with facts or how to spot logical fallacies.

  • We believe this work is important and we want it to keep going.

  • But we can't do that unless you and all our listeners help us out today.

  • Please hit pause, head to smashboom.org slash donate right now and give any amount you can.

  • Because if there's one thing that's not up for debate,

  • it's that the world needs more Smash Boom Best.

  • Thank you so much.
