Transcript
- 0:22Speaker 1: Happy New Year, toleraaders. I have exciting news for our
- 0:25Speaker 1: community as we move into the new year. We are
- 0:29Speaker 1: revamping our Patreon tiers to be more community minded while
- 0:33Speaker 1: also giving you more access to the content that allows
- 0:36Speaker 1: us to melt down over misogyny. Our free tier on
- 0:40Speaker 1: Patreon is getting a huge upgrade. We are going to
- 0:44Speaker 1: have a monthly newsletter where each month I will highlight
- 0:47Speaker 1: a specific moment of misogyny or a misogynist. We will
- 0:52Speaker 1: call attention to women who deserve celebrating, and I'll call
- 0:56Speaker 1: on us to put our efforts and energy towards a manifestate.
- 1:00Speaker 1: This will also be your monthly reminder on the topics
- 1:04Speaker 1: we covered in the month, and one of the only
- 1:06Speaker 1: places where I'll hint at episodes to come, and that
- 1:10Speaker 1: all happens for free. Our paid tears are going to
- 1:14Speaker 1: be what I consider your misogyny lord dump. We cover
- 1:19Speaker 1: so many broad topics on the episodes with our guests,
- 1:22Speaker 1: but I am always very painfully aware that while I
- 1:28Speaker 1: might say it on the mind, self preservation makes me
- 1:31Speaker 1: cut the things that are just a touch to personal
- 1:34Speaker 1: or heated to hand out to just anyone on this internet.
- 1:38Speaker 1: So when you join a paid tier, You're going to
- 1:40Speaker 1: be getting regular content about the misogyny I am experiencing
- 1:44Speaker 1: in real time, while also getting to join me as
- 1:47Speaker 1: I celebrate the people, media, and literature I am taking
- 1:51Speaker 1: in to make me a better feminist podcaster. One of
- 1:55Speaker 1: the ways I'll be sharing my updates is through my writing.
- 1:59Speaker 1: You may have I've heard in recent episodes that I
- 2:01Speaker 1: have been taking multiple workshops on how to be a
- 2:05Speaker 1: comedy writer screenwriter, and what they've basically taught me is
- 2:10Speaker 1: I need to keep at the heart of everything I
- 2:12Speaker 1: write the idea that I'm not being true to myself
- 2:16Speaker 1: unless I am calling out everyday misogyny. Let's break down
- 2:20Speaker 1: these tiers so for our five dollars a month tier,
- 2:24Speaker 1: you can rest easy knowing that you've bought me a
- 2:28Speaker 1: coffee during my writing dates where I try to romanticize
- 2:32Speaker 1: my writing process while also not letting the weight of
- 2:36Speaker 1: being a feminist writer and podcaster under this current administration
- 2:42Speaker 1: hold me down and force me to quit. You are
- 2:46Speaker 1: the capping that keeps me going and keeps me funny,
- 2:52Speaker 1: and because of your support, you will also still be
- 2:55Speaker 1: getting ad free episodes as well as all of the
- 2:58Speaker 1: blog posts essays, and most importantly and bi popular demand
- 3:04Speaker 1: more lower about Grandma peg all of that for your
- 3:09Speaker 1: five dollars a month tier. I am very excited to
- 3:12Speaker 1: have more regularly scheduled content for our ten dollars a
- 3:16Speaker 1: month tier. These tolerators will be getting all the written
- 3:20Speaker 1: content of the other two tiers while also getting new
- 3:23Speaker 1: types of episodes. These episodes will be solo misogyny meltdowns
- 3:28Speaker 1: where I will be doing a monthly recap of all
- 3:31Speaker 1: the misogyny I saw in the world, all the ways
- 3:35Speaker 1: misogyny tried toport my personal plans, and all the ways
- 3:39Speaker 1: I tried to combat it or saw someone else combat it.
- 3:43Speaker 1: These bonus episodes will also be the place where I
- 3:45Speaker 1: offer my unfiltered advice on all the ways you can
- 3:49Speaker 1: battle the misogyny happening in your every day and that
- 3:54Speaker 1: advice has to be behind a paywall for legal reasons.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Now you may be asking yourself, Natalie, how do I
- 4:03Speaker 1: make sure I am getting to talk to people about
- 4:06Speaker 1: these posts or episodes and where do I go to
- 4:09Speaker 1: for support for the issues I'm having with everyday misogyny.
- 4:13Speaker 1: You mentioned something about being a real community at the
- 4:17Speaker 1: very beginning of this ad well. As you all know,
- 4:22Speaker 1: I love to DM a day away, so each tier
- 4:26Speaker 1: has access to our Patreon exclusive chats. Our free tier
- 4:31Speaker 1: chat is for us to come together as a community
- 4:34Speaker 1: and take that conversation wherever we want to. Our pay
- 4:39Speaker 1: tiers will have more in depth chats about episodes, movies,
- 4:42Speaker 1: and media, and we will probably end up talking some
- 4:45Speaker 1: shit on real life misogynists, you know, just to get
- 4:49Speaker 1: really spicy. My big goal for twenty twenty six and
- 4:53Speaker 1: onward is to really foster a place that is the
- 4:56Speaker 1: escape you need from the misogyny you're tolerating, or the
- 5:00Speaker 1: place you can go and have an epic meltdown. For
- 5:04Speaker 1: some Catharsis, it's a real choose your own adventure moment.
- 5:08Speaker 1: The Patreon is as much yours as it is mine.
- 5:12Speaker 1: And if you need an extra incentive to move from
- 5:15Speaker 1: that free tier to one of the paid tiers, I
- 5:18Speaker 1: do have a little bonus for our paid members. For
- 5:22Speaker 1: the entire month of January and February, anyone who signs
- 5:26Speaker 1: up to be a paid member of the Patreon will
- 5:29Speaker 1: be getting a Friendship bracelet that will be a Team
- 5:32Speaker 1: Tolerator exclusive merch item. I will be going into more
- 5:38Speaker 1: details about the importance of these friendship bracelets in one
- 5:42Speaker 1: of our Patreon exclusive posts. But no, these are my
- 5:47Speaker 1: token of love and magic that I hand out to
- 5:49Speaker 1: people so that we are connected forever, and I use
- 5:53Speaker 1: them as a way to extend my witchy powers to
- 5:56Speaker 1: you and keep you protected from all of the misogyny
- 6:01Speaker 1: that tries to ruin your day. Those friendship bracelets will
- 6:05Speaker 1: be mailed out in March to anyone who has made
- 6:09Speaker 1: it through their free trial and to still a paining
- 6:12Speaker 1: member of our community. I cannot wait for you all
- 6:15Speaker 1: to have your own piece of this podcast to wear
- 6:19Speaker 1: and be charmed against all the bullshit that happens when
- 6:22Speaker 1: we live under a patriarchy. Well that's all I've got.
