About Us
The Category5 TV Network has been broadcasting live Internet-based TV programming since 2007.

Your "Per Episode" support is based on each episode of our flagship show, Category5 Technology TV, however your support affects the entire network (all our shows). This simply makes it easier for you to budget and understand just how many episodes you'll be supporting per month. When we send out our weekly "billable" Patreon post, it will contain every video from that week, including edited-down clips of Tech TV to help you get the content you need quickly. We will also send you additional Patron-exclusive behind the scenes videos every now and again.

Patreon allows you to set a monthly cap on your support (if desired). Category5 Technology TV broadcasts 4 to 5 episodes per month (depending on the number of Wednesdays that month). A cap of 5x the value per month will ensure you support each episode, but gives you the peace of mind of never going over budget. The "Per Episode" paradigm helps us budget for each episode, but you will actually only be charged once per month, whatever the number of episodes (or your cap) is. If you pledge $1 per episode and we do 4 episodes, you will be billed 1x $4, not 4x $1 (in the interest of bank fees, etc.) Generally, Patreon will charge your payment method at the beginning of each month. Therefore, if you become a patron on the 10th of the month, you may expect 2 or 3 episodes to be billed on the 1st of the following month.
