The December livestream will be tomorrow, 12/13, at 1:30pm ET/11:30am MT/10:30am PT/12:30pm CT. Here is a time zone converter. We'll probably be experimenting with the new livestreaming software we're using for P4A, which means we won't be able to get a link to you much ahead of time like we usually do, but we'll post updates here so you know when we're live!

To open the questions. Dear Hank & John, what is your opinion on the new Patreon funding structure? A $1 donation + $0.35 + 2.9% + 21% VAT becomes quite an inefficient way to support creators. Manually making a yearly round of donations seems much more cost effective. Any recommendations on a way to support my favorite creators? I like the P4A method of just give a bunch of money and let you figure out the rest.

I have a colonoscopy tomorrow (my second) - I know Hank has gone through this before too - any tips or tricks for making the prep more bearable? On a related note, if you could have a fecal transplant for your UC would you? Why or why not?

I'm not Hank, but I do have some colonoscopy advice to share. I have had two in the last five years, and the prep for my first one was the absolute worst - I tried to not let the prep disrupt my day, so I went to classes. BAD IDEA. For my second one, I rested all day, watched TV and read books, and just stayed comfy. It made a huge difference and I think overall the whole process was better. Good luck tomorrow!

Yeah, I made the mistake of scheduling it for the day after my chemistry final (which is tonight) - so I soon as the test is over I have to rush home and start the prep :/ - but it was the only time I had to get it done on this year's deductible (so I could pay 20% instead of 40% of the total cost - yeah insurance! :/)
