Greetings, Shit Giver —

I’ll make this short (and sweet):

Maybe you didn’t know we have a critically-acclaimed podcast. Maybe you don’t listen to podcasts, or don’t have time. I get it.

But the newsletter is growing like crazy, and we need to do the same thing for the pod — if we want it to continue.

So I’m here to incentivize you to subscribe to the pod with the chance to win one of five $100 Patagonia gift cards.

What’s the pod about?

Every week I host a deep-dive conversation with someone awesome who’s working on the frontlines of the future. 60% of our guests identify as women, and almost 50% as people of color. They’re all super rad.

Scientists, students, CEO’s, farmers, founders, journalists, and more — we’re talking climate, mental health, AI ethics, sexy infrastructure, drones that fight wildfires, microplastics, and more.

The guests and conversations are inspirational as hell (which is probably why we got nominated for Best Science Show, Best Host, and Best Episode Webby’s).

Anyways — I think you’ll love it (you’ll also get the audio version of my weekly essays!).

We’ve got some incredible episodes coming up (and 160+ in the vault!), so it’s the perfect time to jump in.

What do I have to do?

Our goal is to 5x our listeners before the end of this year, and it’s Halloween, so here’s what you have to do:

  1. Subscribe to the pod on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, YouTube Music, Overcast, Pocket Casts, or somewhere else (just search “Important, Not Important” in your player of choice, and hit subscribe).

  2. Fill out the form below (takes approximately 15 seconds)

  3. You’re entered to win a $100 Patagonia gift card!

Enter to win

You have until 11:59 PM EST Friday, November 3rd, 2023 to enter, and the winners will be notified by 5 PM EST Monday, November 6th, 2023.

Thanks and good luck!
