A countdown to 100 paid subscribers

When we started this pledge drive, we decided to set a special incentive for every ten paid subscribers. As of this writing, here’s a recap of where we’ve been, and what fun times lie ahead.

☑️ 40 paid subscribers: Formal wear! GOAL MET! (watch)

☑️ 50 paid subscribers: Live karaoke party! GOAL MET! (watch)

☑️ 60 paid subscribers: Bathrobe party! GOAL MET! (watch)

☑️ 70 paid subscribers: Ice bucket challenge! GOAL MET! (watch Dana|Lawrence)

☑️ 80 paid subscribers: Freaky Friday—we dress as each other! GOAL MET! (watch Dana|Lawrence)

☑️ 90 paid subscribers: the ASMR show! (Tune in to The Daily Whatever Show on Wednesday, 9/10!)

🟦 100 paid subscribers: A massive Zoom celebration with all of you!

Why subscribe?

We’re counting on you to help us continue to write, podcast, and make good trouble.

We adore this work. We want to shape how the world sees GenX as the creative, resilient, innovative, overlooked, world-weary, skeptical, late-blooming, weirdo multihyphenates we are.

Yes, you can access all our content for free. We work on the NPR model* so all our articles and podcasts are available to everyone. We want to get the word out, and that means no paywall.

But we do live in late-stage capitalism.

And that means we need funds to keep it all going. Hence, a pledge drive.

Through the end of summer—aka the 21st night of September—get a lifetime subscription to

GenXy

for $20/year.

You can also subscribe to our individual accounts for just $1/year—a whopping 98% off the subscription price.
