Milestones

Hi everyone, So we are nearing a milestone here but we wanted to talk to our patrons about it. The $1,000 milestone is for our show to produce 2 shows a week. The first thing is that while it says we are nearing $1,000, we actually are about $100 away still. On the backend we can see how many pledges go through and there are some declined pledges. We aren't complaining here - we get that there will be shifts in support, but the problem is that patreon doesn't accurately report the amount. Secondly, and more importantly, we actually think that our show quality would decline if we produced two a week. During our two show weeks we spend a lot of time on the podcast, if that were every week, the show's energy would probably drop. So we are thinking about what we could replace with the $1,000 milestone that would actually be a worthwhile goal while improving the show. We have gotten tons of feedback that people really love it when we record shows when we are both in Gloryhole studios. People really enjoy the energy we have when we record in the same space. We are thinking of changing the $1,000 milestone to recording together in gloryhole studios at least once a month. It is a pain in the ass for me to get out to Tom to do it, but we think that the show would improve a bit and listeners would benefit. We are also considering adding some other close milestones too. We are thinking of a possible google hangout every couple of months. We are also thinking of making a specific patron only show (that would never be released) every few months. We will also have some changes to patron level donors soon too, and we will let you know when that gets implemented. So I am planning on changing this milestone today. I just want to let you all know what we were planning.
