A short video message today to let you know that my new podcast will be launching next week (maybe this weekend). If you’ve listened to me over the last few years, you probably have an idea what to expect.
But this is a new beginning.
I hope you give it a listen, give me feedback… and subscribe. Every week, I’m going to sit down with the smartest, most interesting people I know to try make sense of all this (waves hands) … and figure out how to get through this together.
Like this newsletter, I’m not promising you a safe space — or that the language will always be SFW —but I do promise you commentary and analysis that will be straight, sober, and sane — with a dash of snark.
The knee-bending by billionaire media moguls and the enshittification of social media by the broligarchs has transformed the media landscape... and made independent outlets like Substack more vital than ever.
To the Contrary is a reader-supported publication. No oligarchs. No billionaires. No weak-kneed corporate overlords. No paywalls. No ads. Just you.
Please consider supporting us.
To receive new posts — and the podcast — consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. (And I’m immensely grateful for your generous support.)
A word from our readers
And, of course, we have dogs
This is the look Auggie gives you when he wants his tummy rubbed.
And, yes, he always gets his tummy rubbed.
