    00:00:00 Jesse Host Hey, folks! It’s Jesse. We’re getting close to the end of the year. Thorn Maybe you’re thinking about gifts you’re getting your friends and family, maybe you’re thinking about what causes you can support. I wanna take a second to talk to you about supporting your local public radio station. I’m literally a life-long listener to public radio. Shoutout to KQED and KALW, in the Bay Area. Now, you might be thinking, “If I listen to Bullseye on my phone, why should I donate to a radio station?” Well, it’s pretty straightforward. Bullseye is part of a public radio network, because all those stations give money to NPR, NPR is able to pay us to make shows like Bullseye. And, bonus: when you support public radio, you’re helping build curiosity, conversation, and community right in your backyard. That’s why I support my local NPR Member Station and why you should too. This year, we’re making it really easy. Just go to donate.NPR.org/bullseye to support your local NPR Member Station. And again, that is donate.NPR.org/bullseye. And thanks! 00:00:59 Music Music Gentle, trilling music with a steady drumbeat plays under the dialogue. 00:01:01 Promo Promo Speaker: Bullseye with Jesse Thorn is a production of MaximumFun.org and is distributed by NPR. [Music fades out.] 00:01:12 Jesse Host I’m Jesse Thorn. It’s Bullseye. 00:01:15 Music Music “Huddle Formation” from the album Thunder, Lightning, Strike by The Go! Team plays.
