EEK! I've done it. I've left academic research... for now.

Now would be a GREAT time to support the channel, which you can do over at patreon.com/dr_gilbz, or right here on YouTube (although YT takes a much larger % cut).

Thanks you SO MUCH to all my fabulous patrons, I really appreciate your support. Special thanks to my Patreon Saints: Steven Cowling, Eliot Bryant, Baerbel Winkler, Patrick Hillberg, Michael Unterweger, James Harley Gorrell, Gary Stark & Charles Vane ♥️
