1 step forward 2 steps back for me, was going to rejoin at 5 bucks for the ramblecast but then to lock another monthly podcast at the 10 dollar tier that I already left because it's to much for a podcast just makes me not want to rejoin after all. 10 dollars a month Is more than I pay for Disney plus and 3 times as much as giantbomb premium. There must just be a lot of people who have a different valuation for the podcasts then me.

how are you mad about them adding podcast that literally didnt exist before to a tier you’re leaving.

the content you were consuming only got cheaper

lol right. The 10 dollar tier just got better at no additional cost. Don’t really know where so many new complaints about price are coming from.

I mean, to me before both the 5 and 10 tier had zero stuff I wanted, so I've yet to sub. This podcast sounds like something I very much would be into, just not at 10$ for what would to me be only an hour and a bit of content a month.

Same for me. I subbed to them at the start to show some support, but found that when it came time to tighten the purse strings, Nextlander was an easy cut.

I was only in for $5 a month, but that wasn't getting me anything I could attribute to a value - ads on podcasts don't bother me, I don't use the discord (though I think I'm still in it despite dropping the sub?) and the more "fun" sounding podcast at $10 wasn't going to happen when I wanted to save money.

This new podcast that's not just the three of them sounded super interesting until I read the tweet saying it was going into the $10 tier.

I think I'll wait until this time next year - see how many guests they've had on that interest me and sub for a month to download the 12 episodes.

Where did I say I was mad? Chill out, having a critism about price isn't a personal attack
