If you enjoy the show, there's two things you can do to help:

1) Give us a review. You might hear this on other podcasts, but it genuinely does helps others find us 

2) you're always welcome to BMAC at buymeacoffee.com/theskipodcast. The podcast is a passion project for me, every episode
takes 5-6 hours of my time, but I love it, so if you fancy buying me a coffee
that would be lovely.
