Can't get used to the new Ramble music...

I've been cutting back from all services including Amazon Prime and I am setting a limit of streaming services to 1 at a time. I'm waiting for my wife to question my patreon expenditure lol. I would rather support the co tent creators I like but I don't know that she would see it that way.

Ooh, I'm still on the lowest tier, yet I have access to this upon release as opposed to a week later.

I absolutely view supporting creators and independent artists directly in a completely different light than mega corp subscriptions. I’ve canceled subs out of principal that are a 1/10 the cost of an average Patreon tier.

YouTube Premium is worth it, and there’s a cheaper “Lite” plan coming soon, too.

Absolutely egregiously selfish to spend weeks talking about wanting to switch mobile providers to save money, getting recommendations from your audience, finally switching providers and experiencing SICK savings, and then being too scared to share the name of the company with thee rest of the audience that helped you to begin with. Because you’re afraid of spoofing? What does that even mean? Just share the name, the rest of us are struggling financially (more than the three of you) and could benefit from the information. This is absolutely infuriating.

Townshend

Talk about tech companies taking advantage of us…

Dan Schwartz

There's maybe one show on prime that I am ride or die with, so the second it gets cancelled I'm going to drop that whole suite of features.

I also recently switched to Mint Mobile. One month in, service has been excellent and, with the yearly plan, my wife and I are saving $1500 annually on our phone bill. So dumb I stuck with the expensive carriers for that long.

Townshend

Thanks for sharing that info with us, that the provider in question is Mint Mobile. Ridiculous that they didn’t say it on the podcast.

Found Sundar Pichai’s Patreon account. Seriously though, F*ck google. They aren’t getting a dollar from me.

Evangeline Lilly wasn't fired by Marvel. She was still in the third Ant-Man movie two years ago. You could be conflating her with Jonathan Majors (also in third Ant-Man, fired for different reasons) or Gina Carano (fired from Star Wars for different reasons).

Graeme Hobbs

I agree. $140 for a year is worth it to me to be totally ad free.

Sina Toossi

Great episode and great job hosting Brad!
