Wow! Amazing conversation! Jack Conte is such a nice person! Simple, genuine and caring. I had never heard of him before. I didn't know he created Patron. I am really grateful. Thank you so much Jack! And thank you Josh and Ryan for inviting him. We definitely need more people like Jack in our lives.

Can we have more of Jack in the future? I had no idea who the Patreon creator was until now, he’s great.
