    I hate hate HATE the trial and error of marketing! Marketing ads are expensive as it is and trying to figure out what works and what doesn't gets to be costly and frustrating.

    Needed to vent that as I just had an ad finish that yielded nothing. on to the next ad lol.

    I'm a sucker for Radiolab and This American Life. Both free, which is the most I'll pay. Also like Fresh Air. Just listened to a retrospective of John La Carre that was really good.

    Oh I don’t listen to men even for free 😂

    Eta: I subscribe to Alie Ward, Gretchen, Rubin, Dana K. White, and some other woman who is on probation with me right now, because she’s a little bit of a cuckoo bird

    I am an avid podcast listener and have not seen any asking for money. I would definitely tell them to *kitten* off or politely unsubscribe if funds are required.

    Some of them start out by only charging for “bonus content,” but pretty quickly they are moving into charging for all content. I am sensing a pretty strong trend here. I hope I’m wrong.

    The podcast game is a low barrier to entry business and a high barrier to making money business. Heard that on a podcast.

    hyyy,
    I did my best to make you seem interesting. It’s not my fault if you fumble the ball.

    I have no problem donating to a podcaster or a YouTube content maker if I enjoy their content. I would never pay for someone in the level of Rogan simply because they get their money from advertising and their contracts. But Im more than happy to toss a few bucks here and there to the smaller lesser known shows who provide me with endless amounts of content daily.

    Yeah I don’t mind when they mention their patreon or whatever. But I won’t pay for a subscription

    Eta: you make a good point though about them being smaller etc

    Dayuuuuum, I just had 2 empanadas a co worker brought in because it's the anniversary of her mother's death and apparently feeding others is a thing and they were worth every carb I didn't look up before eating.

    I love this tradition that I’ve never heard of before. The “breaking of bread” together is a ritual that has a lot of meaning to me.
