 You can listen to the Theremin 30 podcast for free, of course. But it isn't free to produce. There are monthly and annual fees for software licenses, telephone and internet expenses, and costs for acquiring music files and CDs.

Rick Reid, the host and producer of Theremin 30, spends countless hours reaching out to theremin recording artists, booking interview guests, and writing, recording, and editing each new episode. He also maintains the website, updates the calendar of events, and manages the related social media pages. And the professional recording equipment Rick uses doesn't come cheap. He has invested nearly a thousand dollars in digital recording equipment and microphones specifically for this podcast. So far, Theremin 30 has only generated enough income from advertising and donations to cover a portion of the expenses. So, this show has been a time-consuming and money-losing project from the beginning. 

Rick's short-term goal is to break even. His long-term goal is to make Theremin 30 a thriving micro-business that will at least financially justify Rick's long hours to keep the show going. If the show ever becomes profitable, Rick intends to create a way to share some revenue with the recording artists who allow him to play their music.

Here are some ways you can support Theremin 30 and help keep it going:
