Can we introduce a SciX Platinum membership, which comes with zero premium features, but allows folks to chip in a few $ each month for this platform that is truly exceptional?

No, they aren’t doing the audience meet and greet anymore after Covid, but the show was awesome. They started with a version of the rope cutting trick, and even tho I know how it works, it still fooled me
