Title: LSPOD Patreon
Post by: Costanza on Wednesday, September 1, 2021, 13:03:29
This is something that I've been tremendously reluctant to do for quite some time, never been comfortable asking for money, but I now feel that assistance would be massively appreciated and there are many reasons behind my decision to launch a Patreon.

Funds raised will...

- Improving the recording equipment to make the quality of the podcast better

- Sponsorship of a Swindon Town player to promote the podcast via matchdays and putting money back into the club in the process

- Help to contribute towards hosting fees so all episodes remain available.

- Covering the costs for future live events.

- To cover costs for player interviews. 99% of the guests do the pod free of charge but this isn't always the case! I also plan to travel to talk to guests face-to-face.

Becoming a Patron of the Pod (LSPOPs) will also give you:-

- Presale priority for any future live events.

- Invitational online social events including exclusive Q&As with special guests and quizzes.

- The possibility of recording a 'My XI' or misc episode of the Loathed Strangers.

- Plus more depending on how well the Patreon does!

It's a one tier Patreon (for now) at just £4 per month to help the pod sustain and develop - Link provided below...

Any questions then feel free to send them my way.

Cheers!
Rich P.

Such a good question, I seemingly answered twice.

I need to chase Miglioranzi though. Issue previous was Skype but I can use other platforms now.

Done. Love the Pod and the variety of content you put out. From the ex player/staff side, the Ardiles one and the Dave Bamber one come to mind but there are many others.

I will be in the full swing of things on the bonus material front before the year is out.

Done. LS and NTT20 had become weekly listening. Thanks for putting it together.

Ben Hooke tried on my behalf when he was media head. I've never formally approached any guest (other than a few joval ones) out 'in the open', like to keep it within email/private messages and somebody like Glenn is a bit

I'll keep trying on that front.

I've joined up, hope it does well enough to keep the pod regulars in cat litter and kombucha (separately, although it might improve the taste of the latter).
