If you’ve missed us on Substack, we’ve still been putting out episodes of the show. And for those who read and/or listen to us via Substack, we are going to be changing it up a little bit.
We still plan to post occasional episodes and long-commentary here on Substack, but our daily emails will come directly from me starting in the near future…probably starting Monday.
We will still be doing the daily show and I will likely post them up on Substack, but not email them going forward.
There are many reasons for this. But, like I said, we are not abandoning Substack. We will use the platform in a more strategic manner.
