Question for @btsheetspod.bsky.social listeners: Would there be any interest in a new tier where you also get an early release of the main show? Like 5 days early on Wednesday, albeit without halftime since we record that Thursday nights. Like a $10 tier or something like that?

What we'll most likely do in August & beyond is, when we do the traditional monthly deep dives, we'll release the segments weekly as we record them so those who want to hear them that way have the option. Then we'll still release the big-assed deep dive episode at the end of the month like before.

We're excited to try this so we can expand the scope of the Patreon shows. There's so much that we've wanted to cover that wouldn't make sense on the main show (various interviews, columns/editorials, etc., plus stuff from monthly newsletters) and hasn't fit into a monthly deep dive topic.

If you haven't heard the new @btsheetspod.bsky.social shows dropped in recent days... For July, the Patreon will have weekly topics instead of 1 big topic: 7/6 RF/ECW split 7/13 2 Cold Scorpio's 1st post-WCW int. 7/20 Debut of Mike Lano's Wrestling Wreality 7/27 John Arezzi's '92 Dave Meltzer int.
