Receiving rewards for Patreon pledges and the future of the show. (Patreon)

Hello everyone. 


From Jan 2018 - Nov 2018 I was sick. To anyone that has pledged or continues to pledge any amount on here I can't thank you enough for helping me pay medical bills this past year that have piled up seeking different treatment options. I can say with excitement that I got a different opinion from a new doctor at the beginning of December, tried a completely new approach, and for almost a month have never felt better in my life. This is why there were two episodes in December. (with a third episode completely done that will be released on January 1st)


To anyone that has signed up during this period of time that has not received their rewards: I would love to send them to you. I can't apologize enough for the delay and for things being overwhelming. If you would like your rewards, please send me a message on Patreon with your name, address and tier level and I will send yours out as soon as I possibly can. 


Also, now that I am feeling better, I have big plans for the show in 2019. Among other exciting things, I am going to be posting a lot more frequently now that I am able to get work done. Moving forward, the plan is to release an episode on the 1st, the 11th, and the 21st of every month-- with a surprise fourth episode thrown in every once in a while. I know I have made the proclamation that I would post more in the past; this feels different and I hope to prove it to you in the coming months. 


WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU AS A PATRON:


The last thing I'd ever want is for someone to feel blindsided. There are no doubt some of you out there that designed your pledge level to correspond with the show producing one or two episodes per month. By default, if there are more episodes per month, you will be charged more as a patron. The good news is: you can go into your settings in Patreon and set monthly limits. You can choose a maximum number of episodes that you feel comfortable contributing to in a given month, and just enjoy all of the additional content for free.


As a rule, I try to never ask my listeners for anything, but I guess I am breaking that rule now. Please consider changing your max contribution settings rather than cancelling your Patreon contribution altogether. Either way, I hope you love the additional content moving forward and I could never do this without your generosity.


Looking forward to 2019,


Stephen

Hey Stephen, happy to hear that you are on the mend. I only discovered you recently. I always loved philosophy. In fact, my first lecture at Uni was a seminar on Kant because it was on a Monday but then coursework in physics started right away and I never came back. Now, 20 years later in an academic career, your podcast provides me an easy access to the bigger picture when I am tired of reading job related manuscripts etc. So: Thank you! In terms of funding your work: I would love to have a one-off donation possibility in addition to the pledging to fund any new episode with a certain amount of money. Of course, I could pledge a higher amount for a short while but I shy away from longer commitments that I need to follow up on an would rather have the possibility to pay you for the great work you have already done! Cheers Florian

Glad you're feeling better. I upgraded my pledge to even more per episode! Hopefully you're in a better place and I am looking forward to a great series of episodes in 2019!
