Where do we go to see the news brief and more to say?

Hi Julia! If you navigate to our homepage here: https://pantsuitpolitics.substack.com/

There's a feed with all our recent episodes, but there's also a tab at the top for Good Morning and a separate one for More to Say and you can get them there. I'm working on a quick tutorial for everyone that should be ready to post early tomorrow that will hopefully answer some of the 'how to substack' questions! -Maggie

Thanks!

Hi from a Patreon user on the other side of the river, in Cincinnati! I hate all the systems if I'm being honest (LOL) but I LOVE you two and am excited to transition to SS/find the new groove. Got the premium stuff synced to Spotify, which will likely make me a more reliable premium content consumer. Easy! Happily upgraded from my $5/month to an annual payment.

Thank you for your transparency and attempt to make this complicated transition as easy as possible! As a business owner who recently launched a subscription (with less success than I'd hoped), I understand the need for consistent funding to keep your lights on! Grateful for all you do. May we all survive the next 1-2 months with some sanity intact.

and OMG you *ARE* my political therapists, I've never heard you refer to yourselves that way but it's 100.

I love how you streamlined your subscription. I am now a bona fide paid member (again) and happy to support your work. Looking forward to accessing more content each week. Now all I need to do is get more acquainted with Substack -- been on here for a bit but haven't done much. Hello all!

I'm excited to start the day with the Good News from Sarah, and I'm getting better at navigating substack after spending a little bit of time yesterday on the site and app and tinkering with notifications. I'm very excited for the (I think you said this) VIDEO Spicy More to Say coming our way today. 🎉

Just came over from Patreon and LOVE these ladies and their community so much. Honestly couldn’t imagine navigating this world without them. THANK YOU for what you do!!

So I can see the podcast episodes on Podbean but not the premium episodes. Do I need to use Spotify? Which means I need a subscription there to avoid the ads?

Congrats on the move! Sarah, I hope that you're holding up with this move - not on a Monday or the first of the month 😉

Apparently my previously-used Substack email address was different from the email address I used on Patreon, and I didn't realize it until after I re-subscribed here. Hopefully that's not going to mess anything up - I will watch my credit card just in case.

Hi! Apparently, I paid 165.60/yr on Patreon and honestly, I do not know when I did . Weirdly, I thought I was paying $15 a month, but that is less, so I am confused but also I did not get an email and did not put new credit card information in because I was not asked to when I jumped over to Substack to view todays message.

I don’t want to in advertently double subscribe. Thoughts?

Thank you for the welcome, Beth and Sarah. I'm thrilled to now be a subscribing listener.

So excited that you are moving everything here! I was a patreon monthly subscriber and a Different Approach to the Newsletter substack annual subscriber (I had actually liked the additional opportunity to support you financially since I can't quite swing a producer's subscription).

Looks like I got moved over and comped my month from patreon, but I'm wondering what the plan is for the old newsletter substack subscriptions?

Hey Stephanie, great question! We had a feeling most of the original Substack subscribers had doubled up :) Feel free to either let me know here or shoot the Pantsuit team an email with which tier of support you prefer here on the new home - we'll get you sorted out!

Hmmm...I've already set up my monthly subscription here once the free month ends so that is taken care of. Just not sure what to do with my outstanding annual subscription on the old newsletter substack? Should I just cancel that (it says it is currently paused)?

I have zero idea if this is where to get this question answered, so I appreciate your patience if this is the wrong place: how can I get the good news brief straight to my phone as I got it w patreon? I don't want to have to open subatack and search for it (wa-wa, I know). I just want the alert where I click and wa-la there is Sarah w GNBrief or Beth with MTSay. Is that possible Sunstack? Could Baily from Substack help?

Hi Renee, happy to! If you check out this post and scroll towards the bottom, I made a video of how to connect the podcast to whatever podcast app you use: https://pantsuitpolitics.substack.com/p/join-pantsuit-politics-on-substack

Let me know if that doesn't work for you

Do I need to Apple pay at this time? Don’t mind to pay in advance as long as start date begins when current subscription runs out. Not sure when that is, still searching for that.

Thank you!

Hey Kathy! Bailey from Substack here :) Stripe's still updating all comp dates and yours should be accurately reflected by early next week. Confirming you won't be charged till the comp runs out, but please go ahead and update your payment info for the Pantsuit team. I would recommend NOT using Apple Pay and instead paying with your CC on mobile web or desktop — Apple taxes a cut of anything through Apple Pay!

Dang!! Wish I’d read this before starting my annual subscription using apple pay. Can I undo and redo with a CC or is this a done deal?

Me too

What is your preferred way for me, a frequent listener but not yet a subscriber, to listen to your PantsuitPolitics podcasts?
