Hi team! Tom here from White Noise (www.whitenoise.email), my free, biweekly missive on books and behavior, philosophy and psychology. Has anyone used the new voiceover feature in a clever way? Looking for inspiration via examples!

Your post describes your newsletter as something which delves into philosophy. That's a welcome change on substack. With all due respect to my fellow writers, most authors on substack stick to subject matter that is as plebian and dirty, dull pavement. I don't mean to sound like a supercilious snot from hell (okay, maybe that's a lie.), but most people talk about the most quotidian, inane BS. Instead of dirty dull pavement, I try to write something that will approximate the Yellow Brick Road.

I will try to check out your newsletter

I hope you will check out mine
