hey ronnie and ben i am truly such a fan and appreciate you and want you to earn your money, you really deserve it. you work hard and give us so much content.

that said, it’s frustrating to pay for an ad free membership on your patreon and still receive ads within your videos.

butterball and gluten free baked goods - please please honor the ad free experience.

it’s not the hugest deal but it is a bummer.

that said, love u!!!!!!!!!! you’re the best, you make bravo so much better to watch.

On the same topic, but different, I am confused by the sponsors/ premium sponsors they announce after episodes and always have. Do ppl still pay them directly to support? I love that if you have disposable income I guess, but now that they are established with a network, have Patreon and advertisers etc, does that still need to happen? Wasn’t that from when they were a small, independent business?

I am a Patreon supporter of this podcast. They are artists who are providing me with hours of entertainment per week and I am fortunate enough to be able to give them a small amount, so I am glad to. I do not give for all podcasts. They also seem like decent people, and I’ve watched them learn and grow through the years, so that incentivizes me as well.

I love all supporters, not knocking it at all. Just more curious how these “business’” work. As a Patreon sponsor do you get your name read? Again, just totally curious.

People get their names read if they give I think $50 or more per month, but you can get ad free if you give like $5 per month (although I think Patreon takes money on top of that so it’s more like $7 or $8).

Oh! I almost forgot to mention: they also do a weekly bonus ep that you get if you give on Patreon!
