DTNS February 2019 Update (Patreon)

February is in FULL FORCE. That means Roger, Sarah and Tom are busy preparing for the Mobile World Congress onslaught at the end of the month plus parsing your survey results and planning awesome new things.

TOM'S NOTE

Things are afoot! We're always looking for ways to improve the show and the content we offer you. This is one of those odd periods where we're talking about a lot of stuff but we don't have much to tell you yet. Fort instance we launched a version of the show without ads for 99 cents a month on Breaker.audio. That platform is young and iOS-only so right now it's just a test. We also have some ideas for bringing the video stream to Twitch but lots of thinking and preparing to do before we decide. 

One new thing we're starting is quarterly product reviews from Sarah Lane. We'll put up a few products for you to vote on and the one with the most votes we'll buy for Sarah to use for three months. At the end of the three months we'll check in with Sarah on a live stream and she'll talk about what it was like to "Live With It." Look for the poll on Patreon!

All of this is to say we're working our brains hard to bring you the best DTNS we can and we only do it because you support us. Thank you!

By the way, in January Patreon support made up over 95% of our revenue. You're our biggest stakeholder. Thank you!

REVIEW US PLEASE!

You can review Daily Tech News Show every 6 months or so in Apple podcasts. And reviews on any platform help! All of you should do this right now! (Unless you just did it) If all of you reviewed us this month we'd shoot up the charts, and more folks would discover us! That means you would have more people to chat with about tech.

UPCOMING GUESTS/EVENTS

[Regular schedule is Tue: Patrick Beja, Wed: Scott Johnson, Thu: Justin Robert Young]

Thursday February 7 - Tom and Sarah are both out and Justin is hosting with Shannon Morse.

Friday February 8 - Annalee Newitz

Friday February 15 - Patrick Norton

More to come!
