Stoked for James and the rest of the new start up team.

Great news, but I can only imagine the turmoil hiding in there from a personal level.

I wonder if it actually had to do with some kind of non-compete?

I’m stoked that James is on board. That gets me over any hurdle. Take my $$$.

Thinking back…didn’t one of these guys ask for Colorado lawyer recommendations a few months back? At the time I thought it was about something else, but now I wonder.

You don’t even get any NFT’s for that (but a custom digital avatar)

:joy:

I LOVED that line in the text :stuck_out_tongue:

I love that in the middle of the “What are we?” section, they slipped in “Pop-up ads make us want to gouge our eyes out” :rofl:

Oof, 100$ a year is definitely on the higher side. Would be a no-brainer at 50 or 60.

That’s a lot of talent. Expensive talent. Wade must be really thinking the subs are going to pour in. But maybe they all know they’re not going to make shit for the first five years.

I want to sub, so tbd. I also want to see what they’re putting out compared to the old CT

Compared to Outside+ at:

  • $4.99/mo = $60/yr regular price
  • $3.75/mo = $45/yr current sale (25% off)

I think the Escape is justifiably more since I’d rather reward a group that actually gives a sh!t about their readers compared to O+ (PinkBike group excluded since they are still the best in that crap umbrella).

I saw your name in there. Assumed they gifted it to you. Good on you Shane :clap:

I’m shocked at just how many Lifetime members there already are! This is off to a quick start and I really hope they sustain the momentum.

I’m not a fan of being asked to pay for something before I even know what it is…but I’m not gonna be a hypocrite and not support this effort, either.

So they have my money…hoping they deliver the goods. The talent is there, no doubt.

With kids in college I’ve got to spend my $$$ carefully but this feels like an investment worth making; I want my spending to reflect my values and Outside, etc does the exact opposite.

My name still isn’t on the Founders Wall, is it time to ask for my money back? :rofl: How long does it take for the database to update?
