This podcast is free, but making it is expensive. There’s the website subscription, the newspaper archive subscription, the public records search subscription, and the blanket music license subscription. There are the batteries, the SD cards, the microphones, the recorders, the cables, and the digital audio software.
Then there is the time.
I spend 30-60 hours making each episode of Welcome To Olympia. I love this work, but it is work.
If you love this show, and are in a position to help keep it running, I’d really appreciate your financial support. You can give as little as $3 and you can even make your payment recurring if you like.
