Lil Bebe Bonus Ep
Hey everyone!
Some of you may have noticed this week’s episode posted a little late. That’s the first time that’s happened since I launched eight months ago in February! I could have finished up this week’s episode hastily and got it posted on time, but I just didn’t FEEL like it. I prioritized my mental health over consistency because really, I have no one to answer to anyway and it’s not like I’m getting paid. But thanks for your patience, I just wanted to be transparent with my followers. This Tuesday is my birthday and I’ll be turning 37. I don’t know if it’s my birthday coming up, being unemployed, or the crushing pressure of living under capitalism on a planet that’s dying, but I’ve been feeling pretty blah lately and honestly feeling like hard work just does not pay off. I’m tired of feeling perpetually anxious and beaten down, ya know? Anyway, if you are in a position to give and/or are feeling magnanimous and/or just want to lift me up and help me out a bit for my birthday, my cashtag is Sacrilicious spelled SACRILICIOUS and my Venmo is Skaters-Feet. You can also support me by subscribing to my patreon for a recurring $5 a month, where you will not only be committing to helping me long term, but you will receive two bonus episodes each month. You can do that at Patreon.com/TheAuntieSocialNetwork, and I’ll provide those tags and links in the show notes.

Even if you do not listen to me in iTunes, please login to rate and review my podcast there! You can also share me on social media or tell your friends about your favorite episode. As always, thanks for tuning in and a new episode will be coming to ya on Wednesday. Later!
