* Two whole months of unlimited access '''[http://www.skillshare.com/PORTAL Skillshare.com/PORTAL]'''
Returning sponsor SkillShare is one of the most popular with the Portal audience because we have a lot of stuff teachers out there, and SkillShare is effectively a university in your pocket. Any course you can think of that you want to take under the sun probably has some representation and SkillShare through instructors the high quality videos teach you everything in the privacy of your own home. I wanted to test SkillShare by giving them something I felt very uncomfortable with, namely, Interior Design. I always notice when I'm in it somebody else's home, it isn't just a collection of interesting objects, but it is somehow beautifully pulled together. So I came up with a course on the site talk by Emily Henderson called "Style Your Space: Creative Tips and Techniques for Interior Design", and, sure enough, she explains sort of the rigmarole or theory behind pulling a house together visually to create a coherent space. I'm glad I did, and it's probably not something I would have been comfortable doing if it wasn't in the privacy of my own home. Now SkillShare is a proud sponsor of The Portal, so you can explore your creativity at SkillShare.com/Portal and get two free months of premier membership. That is two whole months of unlimited access to thousands of their classes for free. So get started to join today by heading to SkillShare.com/Portal for high-quality courses in just about everything. I can do that with SkillShare—the University of the phone for autodidacts.

Okay, let's admit it. You were caught masticating, and you haven't been taking care of your teeth properly by brushing them for 2 minutes afterwards. Now, why is that? It's because you're not fascinated by your teeth. In order to understand how important your teeth are, you have to realize that they originate from two separate layers of the developing embryo. That is, the ectoderm and the mesoderm. That seems like a miraculous collaboration for you not to be taking care of them. With Quip, makers of the new electric toothbrush, toothpaste, and dental floss, it is going to give you great habits. Now, you know that you're supposed to be brushing your teeth for about 2 minutes, but with Quip they have a timer inside the electric toothbrush, which guides you as to how to divide the two minutes properly into four separate segments of 30 seconds each. Furthermore, it's an absolutely elegant and clean design, and it makes brushing your teeth a pleasure. So with Quip, you're going to take much better care of your teeth. So if you go to GetQuip.com/Portal right now, you'll get your first refill free. Quip is the good habits company. Take an interest in your teeth, and for god's sakes, keep masticating, but keep them clean.

In order to explain where new sponsor Athletic Greens fits into your nutritional picture, I have to tell you an evolutionary fairytale: Once Upon a Time your ancestors had perfect comprehensive nutrition simply from living in a state of nature. Do you believe that? Of course not, because modern science and nutrition tells us it's almost impossible to get comprehensive nutrition from food alone. Enter Athletic Greens. Their ultimate, daily all-in-one health drink has 75 vitamins, minerals, and other whole-food-sourced ingredients, including prebiotics, probiotics, digestive enzymes, and adaptogens, and all of this means that you have a very simple option to confer comprehensive nutrition. Now, what do I recommend? Whether you're taking steps towards a healthier lifestyle, or you're an athlete pushing for better performance try athletic greens because they take the guesswork out of every day good health. Why not just try it? Jump over to AthleticGreens.com/Portal and claim our special offer today, which is 20 free travel packs that are currently valued at $79 with your first purchase.

So, I hope that this is going to be at an unbelievable decade. Thank you guys for sticking with it. I'm sorry if this was a little bit long, but it was a lot to say and it was heartfelt and quite important to me to get it out, and we will return to trying to get you high quality content, either in the form of interviews, which you've become used to on The Portal, or perhaps some new visual content that allows you to understand ideas that would be very difficult to communicate but for some novel means of presentation. We hope to approach the community, to try to coordinate people who are eager to contribute back into the program, and maybe get a little bit of a closer relationship to our content going forward, maybe influence it a little bit, and we haven't figured out all of the bugs. So thanks for being part of the initial experiment. Thanks for sticking with us. And we're looking forward to being with you in the coming year and decade ahead. So, you've been through The Portal for first solo episode of 2020. Be well everybody. Stay tuned.
