Beatitude - S02E09 - The BetterPears Podcast

This week’s episode is on beatitude.

Announcements:
A little over a year and a half ago, we began distributing this podcast to the world and today’s episode is of some historic significance. As a connoisseur of podcasts, perhaps you might recall a certain statistic floating around the internet that 90% of podcasts fail to ever be produced, dying in the idea phase. Of the remaining 10%, a whopping 90% end by the 20th episode. Today’s episode marks the 21st of The BetterPears Podcast making it a statistical success and among the top 1% of all podcast ideas to make it this far.

This success could not have happened without the support and encouragement of our listeners. The BetterPears Podcast is certainly a niche program but one that speaks to the human heart and our desire to discern meaning in our language and reality. If you have been listening to the podcast for some time, could you pause the episode in a moment and write down five people you know whom you think might enjoy this program. After the episode, could you send them a link and invite them to listen. Perhaps you have a favorite episode or one you think would really speak to them. Nothing quite helps a program grow like the recommendation of a friend or relative. Pause now and join us after you write your list.
Welcome back. The other important way to assist the podcast and BetterPears as a whole is to become a monthly contributor to BetterPears Leaves, our crowdfunding program, at BetterPears.com/Leaves. The program is simple. For your monthly contribution of $12 or more, you will receive a Goldback in the mail during the following month for as long as you continue your support. You can learn more about Goldbacks through the video on the webpage. If you have been hearing about gold in the news and wanted to learn more about this asset class but did not know where to start, nothing whets your interest like actually owning physical gold. Furthermore, the program funds the work of BetterPears including this podcast, The Confederal Reserve, and in-person Greenhouse fellowships. Although it is clear on the website, I will also note that BetterPears is a for-profit enterprise and your support is not tax-deductible.
There is one last thing to mention about BetterPears Leaves. As a special perk for supporters starting or continuing their support in April 2024, you will be receiving a ballot by email in which you can cast your vote for the Season 3 premiere episode from a short list of topics in the running. Play a part in the future of The BetterPears Podcast by joining BetterPears Leaves today!
Thank you again for your continued patronage of attention and federal reserve notes. And now, on with the episode.
