Anyone obsessed with the Cleveland Browns must be writing to his own friends and family. This has been a pathetically owned NFL franchise ever since Model moved it to Baltimore.

I never subscribed to this item so please UNsubscribe me. My only Substack subscription is Today's Edition by Robert Hubbell which I pay for and wish to continue my subscription. Please, I plead that you please UNsubscribe me from all Substack stuff other than Today's Edition of Robert Hubbell. This is a repeat request. Please stop inundating me with tons of stuff I never asked for and do NOT want.

That is why I came to this comment section as well! I couldn’t give a rats rump about the Cleveland Browns. Or any other sports team for that matter. I have tried to turn this off, and then it comes back! Worse than a bad penny, this is utterly hateful!

And frankly, I don’t think Substack cares

Why the heck did this show up in my feed and in an email? I don't care about the Browns, I don't care about how the Browns do film breakdown, and I really don't care to watch a video about it.

I never subscribed to your podcast. Please unsubscribe me. I can't find a way to do it myself and don't know why you subscribed me.

Not getting overwhelmed is a challenge many face in the digital age - getting rid of wireless airpods reduces that stress on our nervous system, as they resonate at the same frequency of a microwave. Don't cook your brain, fire up thought instead!

Great interview because I've been thinking about exactly that. How can my subscribers pick and choose from the various things I post? Some want the podcast only, others want the poetry and the prompts. How do you do that in a simple way? It seems to be a shift in that 2 years ago, frequent posting was the thing promoted and now it's like hey don't post so much. Why is that? It sends mixed messages to creators. I post when I have something to say and I'm happy with it, I don't post every day unless I want to. But it would be useful knowing a bit more the how to. Thank you for this introduction.

Anyone obsessed with sports is in need of distraction. If you compare modern pro sports to those of 50 years ago, you will see a totally different devotion to sports. Today, pro sports and, to some extent, collegiate sports are a continuation of Soap Opera Digest. The players are making ten times (or more) the salary of the coaches. Betting online is now the favorite pastime for teenagers and minorities. The ads for gambling sites are an amazing testament to Madison Avenue. The bets that used to be whispered between bar customers are now a family event where members bet the under/over or the latest spread at the dinner table. These are accomplished with the swipe of a credit card. However, I enjoy watching our local high school sports or club sports for soccer and lacrosse. I was an average athlete in school, but I enjoyed all the lessons that sports taught me.

Guys I have lots of questions. Personally, I love college football. My heart is with Bama and if they aren’t in it the SEC (even Auburn). I have wanted to start a Podcast around it except I’m not the most technologically gifted person and I’m not at the age where someone usually starts something like this. I have a lot of time to devote to the project as I’m retired (55) is my age but I’m knowledgeable about it and tons of people keep telling me to start a podcast. I’ve been hemming and hawing and I’m doing it this year. I’m familiar with Substack so if I could ask some questions and pick your brain I’d appreciate it. Message me back if you’re interested and we can work the details out. I’d be beyond appreciative. Thanks.

They did a good job of explaining why churning out a lot of content causes you to lose subscribers.

Initially it seems counter-intuitive (you're getting MORE for your money) but when viewed as "homework" it make perfect sense

Best of luck to you, but should have picked a better team if you wanted those clicks. ;)

Just kidding, good conversation, and the commentary on too much worthless content and focusing to what matters is a great message in this era. This is especially true in a media environment where AI lets people churn out absolutely garbage, and also one in which people are primarily turning to trusted people over organizations for their news.

But, also, Who Dey!

Impeach trump NOW! Send the message “YOU’RE FIRED! “. And Lock him up! Removing him solves the majority of the problems. If Vance can’t comply with the Constitution and the Rule of Law, then remove him too! Keep them busy defending themselves until they are GONE!
