Content
Hi Patrons!
As promised - here is an update on upcoming changes being made to our Patreon. We want to thank all of the DMs, form submissions, and emails we've gotten with ideas on how to continue improving our Patreon and making it more efficient!
Any new ideas or suggestions - drop those here!
https://forms.gle/NmirNv9H43AZy1qs8
To start- THERE ARE NO CHANGES BEING MADE TO ANY OF STANDARD TIERS - so no stresses or worries there :D
Here is the full video of all the changes:

For those that prefer to read the updates- I'll provide the outline below :)
Updates Coming
1. Adjustments to Executive Producer Tiers
These changes will not be applied until May. All currently voted in EPs are locked in at the rates they pledged for.
Now that we have fully vetted an editor- we will be outsourcing all of our EP edits to our editor. Based on his costs, we're adjusting the EP tiers to accommodate those costs and to ensure it still makes sense for us to commit the time to.
New rates:
30 minutes or less: $25
31 minutes-60 minutes: $35
61 minutes- 105 minutes: $45
106 minutes- 150 minutes: $60
151 minutes- 195 minutes: $80
When filling out the form for interest- you will select the time range of your intended sponsored content- you will then pledge at that amount (Tiers will be made next month).
We understand this is likely not going to fit in everyone's budget but in order to be able to continue to offer in a way that makes fiscal sense and in which we have time to do it- this is the solution.
Those interested in being an EP for May - can fill out the form below:

We will post this again in April too so no rush!
2. Start date for New Month
Going forward, the first date we will begin posting regular content again will be on the 3rd of each month. This gives me the time to prepare and post all the polls on the 1st and then spend the time adding and removing patrons once billing settles which is usually on the 2nd.
3. Total Reactions Daily
Going forward, we will be capping the total amount of reactions daily (this is for the regular schedule - not for the EP Drop at the end of the month) to 2 reactions daily. Whether this is a movie and a show or two shows - it will be capped at 2. So this will likely push back those shows in the slower rotation categories.
4. Management of Slower Rotation Category
Going forward, once a show has been dropped down into the slower rotation category- and it not voted back up after two pulse tests- RJ and I will remove it from rotation and replace it with a new show or another show we want to get back to in order to avoid an overextended period of time reacting to a show that doesn't get voted back in.
5. Movie Tier Polls
Going forward, only those Patrons at the movies tiers and up with be able to vote in the movie polls. This includes the $4 tiers and up! This seemed pretty obvious after I got a DM this week- haha- so thank you again to that anonymous patron!
6. New Tiers
a) Real Talk Critic - $15
For those who've message that they'd like to be able to get a shoutout even on the months they aren't pledge as an EP- here's that clout :) Your comments will be featured in our reactions and you'll be given the title of "Real Talk Critic".
b) Most Valuable Producer Tier | Show $75 or Movie $100
This bypasses the need to be voted in for the month as an EP. Your sponsorship will be reacted to first and posted upon completion of the edit. This tier will be by request only.
c) Chat with RTR | 30 min Zoom $150
Those interested in collaborating, consulting with, or just wanting to have a more direct conversation with RJ & I- the options now available. This will be by request only and once locked in - we'll send a Calendly link.
7. June & July
We'll be traveling in June- to Washington State and and July- to Germany- so we'll keep everyone posted on any changes in the schedule for those months as the dates get closer.
Thanks so much again for all the input, suggestions, and recommendations we've been provided with!
And thanks so much for the continued support!
If you have any questions or need anything clarified- send us a DM with those!
Lots of Love!
RJ And Jrabbit
