Hey Josh, Iā€™m a conservative evangelical from GA now living in Denver. I found you this AM thru my Dispatch feed. I signed up and paid without the first taste here. I figured anything they suggest would be worth the price of admission, and would help me understand my new neighbors a bit better. Denver is definitelyā€¦not the ATL. Anyway, I came for the fight and Iā€™m excited about the food. Good luck, and Iā€™ll be reading alongā€¦

For years listening to LRC, my wife and I have agreed with some guests and disagreed with others - the latter sometimes with a "but I can see where they are coming from and they make a good point" and sometimes with a "man, this person is difficult to listen to". One thing that's remained consistent though - we've always found your commentary to be thoughtful, incisive, and witty. Best of luck with the new venture! (and you might shoot a thanks to The Dispatch's staff, who recommended your newsletter in their morning newsletter today, alerting me to its launch :D)

Since I use your twitter feed as a distraction during my work day and because cancelling my Slate Plus membership for this year due to the persistent slide of Slate towards telling me exactly what to think instead of what is happening in the world freed up some media consumption budget it seemed only right that I subscribe.

Canā€™t wait to hear why Chardonnay and Cruises are actually quite popular. I donā€™t understand it.

You are the only person I follow that my wife both agrees with and doesn't find annoying (sorry Matt and Noah), so looking forward to it!

Congrats Josh! Found LRC several years ago and it/you changed the way I thought these kinds of conversations could be structured. Looking forward to the new pod and reading your work here.
