If our shows mean as much to you as they do to all of us, become a MaxFun member! We’ve got a lot of snazzy gifts right now, and you’ve probably been hearing a lot of talk about those (and, in all fairness, they’re very cool). But becoming a member is about more than just gifts—it’s about giving back to the podcasts you love by supporting the people who make them.
If that resonates with you, please consider taking two minutes right now to support our small, worker-owned, independent media company! (And, yeah, you will also get access to get lots and lots of Bonus Content.) Your support will make a real, tangible difference in our ability to do what we do. And if you’ve already done so, thank you, thank you, thank you!

Kira’s foster kitten Ducky says thanks!
Our event calendar is jam-packed!
Coming up later today: Reading Glasses test snacks, Travis and Griffin play REPO, JJGo, Bison Week with Alex Schmidt!
If you’re not a morning person, you might have missed one of our favorite MFD events: the Fuser Kickoff Party. Lucky for all of us, you can watch the replay now and also every day for the rest of your life you want.
Other replays not to be missed–or at least, not to be missed again:
⁉️ We Got This Triviapocalypse
📚 Book Recs by Reading Glasses
Plus, you’ve got a variety of delightful daily streams:
Make sure you keep a tab open with our events calendar (what’s another tab in your seas of tabs?) so you can watch live and join in on the chat with other MaxFunsters!

Our hosts and staff are putting a ton of hard work into all of these amazing events! If you’re enjoying them, consider showing your appreciation to your favorite hosts by becoming a member and supporting their shows.
Heads up: you can pre-pay for your membership a year at a time!
We rolled out annual pre-paid memberships last year, and the response was overwhelming. You pay for a year of membership upfront, and when your year is up, your membership automatically converts to month-to month, unless you pre-pay again.
It’s a great option for anyone who prefers yearly payments over monthly—plus, it saves us a bunch on processing fees! If you’re interested in a MaxFun membership but haven’t taken the plunge because you prefer to pay for things on an annual basis, a pre-paid membership is perfect. And if you’re already a member and can’t increase your level of support, pre-paying for a year also helps MaxFun and your favorite shows in a big way!
–> Pay once for a year of membership <–
Meetup Day is tomorrow!
Stacey just went to the wedding of a friend that she met at a MaxFun meetup over a decade ago (she says hi Sam).
The meetup-to-friendship pathway is legit. Go meet some friends!
- Berlin, Germany
- Carlsbad, CA
- Los Angeles, CA
- San Jose, CA
- Boston, MA
- Brandon, MS
- Beacon, NY
- Queens, NY
- Nashville, TN
- Seattle, WA
- Washington, DC
Don’t see a meetup near you? There’s still time to make one happen! All you need to do is find a local venue that can accommodate a small group (or a big one, who knows!?), email me at cn@maximumfun.org so I can add it to the ongoing list, and then show up to have a good time with a bunch of other people who have excellent taste in podcasts.
–> Meet some pals! <–
Thank you for an incredible start to the Drive! Let’s keep the party going!
— C.N. and your friends at MaxFun
