Dear Subscriber,
I’m writing to you today with an update on the state of System Failure. And to announce an upcoming interview with world-class economist Dr. Michael Hudson!
Here are all the exciting details…
Newsletter
Those who’ve been with us for a while have probably noticed that System Failure is now a weekly newsletter. Going forward, you can expect fresh content delivered to your inbox every Monday morning. In addition, bonus content will sometimes come your way on Thursdays.
System Failure is a somewhat complex constellation of interconnected ideas. To make life easier, I’ve lined up all the stars in that constellation for you, like boxcars on a train track. For those who’d like a peek down the tracks, I’ve prepared a public Idea Map and Essay Schedule so you can follow along and track our progress…
Podcast
You can find the System Failure podcast on Spotify, Pocketcasts, or wherever you normally listen. Full episodes drop every Monday morning, and audio versions of the weekly newsletter come out on Thursdays.
As mentioned above, we are ELECTRIFIED to announce that world-renowned economist Dr. Michael Hudson will be joining us on the podcast. His episode will publish on August 26th. It’s guaranteed to blow your mind! Be sure to subscribe now so you don’t miss out…
Growth
System Failure is taking off! As you can see on the chart below, we’ve just passed 300 subscribers.
With the weekly format established, an Idea Map /Essay Schedule in place, and our first heavy-hitting guest joining the podcast, we’re ready to begin aggressively expanding our reach and engagement.
That’s where you come in; you’re cordially invited to be a part of the process! If you’re so inclined, here’s what you can do:
The easiest thing is to click the ❤️ buttons directly in your email inbox every week. That alone will help us immensely. Also feel free to leave comments and feedback. We’d love to hear what you think.
Additionally, tell anyone who will listen about System Failure. Bend the ears of friends and family. Corner co-workers in the elevator. Or festoon your socials with our links.
Finally, join the conversation by downloading the free Substack app on Apple or Android. There, you can connect with me and fellow readers. Or check out other newsletters on the internet’s fastest growing platform…
By way of a conclusion, let me say that I’m beyond thrilled that you were so early to System Failure. I hope this “State of the Newsletter” has excited you. Thank you for being a treasured subscriber!
Your pen pal,
Nate
The idea map and essay schedule are an impressive example of planning ahead and staying focused. Looking forward to the next stages of your work!
