$2/moLET'S ARGUE!Access to monthly patron-exclusive episodes of LET'S ARGUE! You of course get to participate and watch, but your hot take may or may not be featured. (P.S. When standout Fantano channel bloopers happen we'll post 'em here.)You also get access to TND's Discord server.Please note this refers to a pre-recorded / edited video like the ones on the Fantano channel; full VODs of the new LA livestreams that started in 2023 go in the livestream tier.
