Hi everyone. It's Kathryn Gehred, host of Your Most Obedient & Humble Servant, I have some very exciting news to share with you. We have been nominated for a women in podcasting award. I would really appreciate it if you would take a moment to vote for Your Most Obedient & Humble Servant in the history category, to vote head to womenpodcasters.com/vote or check out the show notes for a link and directions on how to vote.

But that's not all. We're busy recording new interviews for season four of Your Most Obedient & Humble Servant, and I'm excited to announce this season's theme coming this fall is a "Season of Revolution." We're going to focus on letters about and around the American Revolution. We have so many great episodes lined up that I cannot wait to share with you.

While you're waiting for the next season, please check out some of our R2 Studios', other great podcasts, including our latest series, Antisemitism, U.S.A.: A History. Over the course of 10 episodes, you'll learn about the deep, complicated roots of antisemitism in our country. I absolutely binged the series, and in particular, I found episodes on the early roots of American antisemitism to be fascinating and enlightening, or catch up on the latest episodes of Worlds Turned Upside Down, which tells the story of the American Revolution as a transatlantic crisis and imperial civil war. My friend Jim Ambuske, and former Humble guest, is the narrator, and he does a great job of telling the story from the perspective of the people who lived through the revolution. If you listen closely, you might recognize your Humble host doing some voice acting as well. You can find both Worlds Turned Upside Down and Antisemitism, U.S.A., wherever you listen to Your Most Obedient & Humble Servant, and don't forget to cast your votes for women. Head to womenpodcasters.com/vote, now to help us win, I am as ever Your Most Obedient & Humble Servant. Thank you very much.
