This runs on nothing but time.
No sponsors, no advertisers, and nobody who could ask me to soften an episode. If it has been worth something to you, here is how to keep it going.
Share one episode
The most valuable thing you can do, and it costs nothing. Send one film to one person who would actually watch it.
Give once
Buy the research a coffee. No tiers, no rewards, and no obligation to ever do it again.
Give monthly
Steady support is what makes it possible to spend three weeks on one episode instead of three days.
Plainly:
- Research time — books, archive access, and the hours to read them properly
- Hosting, and mirroring the archive across five platforms
- Equipment, repairs, and a second camera for guest episodes
- Building the Academy, which is a great deal of unpaid work up front
If money is tight, don’t. Share an episode instead — it is worth more to this channel than a fiver, and I mean that.
No. Everything published is public. Paywalling the ideas would defeat the entire purpose of making them.
Yes. The one-off option has no follow-up and no mailing list attached to it.
Replace with your correct answer. If you are taking recurring payments in the UK, say plainly who the money goes to.
