December 2019 DTNS Update (Patreon)

Happy holidays!  Thanks again for staying with us this year. We have a bunch of new merchandise rewards in the Patreon (yes even newer than the new rewards that were added last month!) If you back us at the highest level (Grand Master) for three months, you’ll get a t-shirt with special 6th-anniversary DTNS art from Len Peralta. Master level folks get a mug, Advisor level gets a poster and Analyst level gets a sticker. All with the Len peralta art. This is the ONLY way to get this merchandise. So thanks for sticking around!

Holiday postcards are going out this week. Some of you asked if they were going to be signed. They will not. Last year we signed 800 or so, this year we have three times that many to send out. So we chickened out of signing them. But it’s cool Len Peralta art which you get mailed right to your door. That’s the important part anyway. In the future we may do some signed ones again for certain tiers. We’ll see.

Of course we’re planning for CES as well. We’ll be broadcasting from the Central Hall in the broadcast tower if you’re around swing by and say hi. Just don’t knock if we’re recording, eh? We’ll also be attending CES Unveiled, Digital Experience from Pepcom and Show Stoppers. So look for us there too. 

And of course we will not be doing new shows during the holiday break but we’re pre-recording our specials as usual. Here’s the rundown.

• Dec. 20 - Rich Stroffolino hosting, Amos producing
• Dec. 23 - Live With It check-in on Sarah’s Fitbit
• Dec. 24 - Best Of 
• Dec. 26 - Listener co-host show 
• Dec. 27 - Retro Show
• Dec. 30 - Predictions Results
• Dec. 31 - Predictions

Hope your holidays treat you as well as can be expected. Here’s to 2020 and CES!!

REVIEW US PLEASE!

Even if you don’t use Apple for podcasts, reviewing us is one of the biggest things you can do to help us get new listeners. 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.
