    They called it a begathon in the episodes when they said it was coming up. I guess the word stuck in my head, because you're right, it isn't actually named that now. Starting to doubt myself . . . OK, yes, they called it "The Citations Needed Begathon" in their episode on the Young Turks. So I didn't make that up, but they seem to have changed their minds about actually calling it that.

    eta: They definitely presented it as a fundraiser in the epsiode

    Nima: Before we get to this News Brief, we’re excited to announce that later this month, we’ll be hosting a Citations Needed Begathon, and by Begathon, we mean, a podcast fundraiser with amazing guests and fun prizes.

    Adam: We’ll be livestreaming two interviews on YouTube on Thursday, October 20, at 8:30pm Eastern Time. And here’s the deal. We want more Patreon supporters, we need more Patreon supporters. On each episode, we asked folks to sign up to support the show and a bunch of you do but also a whole lot of you don’t.

    Nima: Tens of thousands of you amazing people listen to Citations Needed each week or so. But a tiny fraction of listeners actually sign up to support the show.

    Adam: So we are reaching out and we are begging, as it were, at the beginning of our sixth season to ask you directly to support the show on Patreon, and to promote this, we’re going to do a livestream show on YouTube.
