$5/moA Little Something SpecialWe're going to experiment with this tier a bit, but right now we're planning on doing a special show that's for patrons only. We're going to start by recording our next planning meeting, but we're open to trying new stuff. We might answer some of the off-the-wall questions we get (and usually skip for main Q&A episodes), dig out some old tech to talk about, or something else entirely.
Also includes Discord access!
$30/moAssociate ProducerAt this tier, you'll be credited as an Associate Producer on the Techpod homepage, and we'll shout out all Associate Producers in the last episode of the month.
Additionally, Associate Producers will get access to the Tech Pod Discord, and access to a monthly subscriber-only show.
$100/moExecutive ProducerThanks for supporting the Tech Pod in a big way. Executive Producers get a shoutout at the end of every episode of the Tech Pod and access to all other patron benefits!
At the end of each 12-month period, Executive Producers will receive a special gift from us, thanking you for your year of patronage.
