Listening to this and I realize I should have told people my crochet blankets would cure all their (insert un-provable ailment here). I would have RAKED it in. Ah…but for ethics…

I just got around to listening to this episode after watching the fallout from AT over the last few days, and Noah's diatribe about Scathing's 10 year anniversary broke my heart. I haven't lent my voice to the virtual vitriol playing out online, but I'll say it here: y'all are loved. This was a horrible, complicated situation that cannot be reduced to black and white like they are trying to do on social media. I'm so sorry the actions of one creep caused so much pain and anguish - y'all are victims of AT too, as is Thomas. The one thing that kills me is that AT will probably be fine financially. I'm worried about y'all and Thomas and want to make sure you can keep doing what you love. PiaT, CogDis, and Thomas's podcasts have been highlights of my week for over a decade now. Thank you for that, and I expect at least another decade of poop jokes from y'all!

Noah, Heath, Eli, Lucinda, and Anna, you are the highlight of my week, every week.

I would pay cash money for a “This week’s episode contains pronouns” t- shirt.

Brendan Merk

I pay money for lots of things in this life, but very few of them are worth every dollar that I spent on them. Your podcast is that anymore. Thanks for making my workweek a better place.

Kernan Coleman

The fact that tens of thousands of people fall for this shit makes me feel very hopeless for the future of humanity.

Jay Voigt

I wish I could listen to you goofballs all day. 8 hour + episodes would equal BIGGGGG bucks on Patreon, just saying. ❤️👍😉

Jay Voigt

Yeah, congratulations! I follow some of your other podcasts as well, but the SA I enjoy the most. Honest to dog, I recently upped my pledge level in some superstitious feeling that if I throw money harder, you return sooner

Marsh posted his collection of letters and trinkets from Popoff on twitter today, it's fascinating to look through. https://goodthinkingsociety.org/peter-popoffs-prosperity-gospel-letters-in-full/
