Our first episode is live and we’re already getting some great comments from listeners. Dire Straights was also featured in The Meteor and New York Magazine!
You can listen anywhere you get your podcasts, and don’t forget to rate us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts to help others find us.
Our subscriber chat is live, too
Last week, we called an inaugural, emergency subscriber chat to talk about the Sabrina Carpenter discourse.
This week in the chat, we want to hear from you.
What do you want to see us cover in future episodes of Dire Straights? What subjects do we need to be talking about, unpacking, or bringing attention to? What’s the most dire hetero trend you’ve seen lately, the one that haunts you?
This is a conversation space exclusively for paid subscribers, kind of like a group chat or live hangout. Tracy and Amanda will post questions and updates in the chat from time to time, and you can jump into the discussion.
Paid subscribers also have the ability to start new threads, so if anything comes your way that you want to discuss with other dire listeners, feel free to drop a prompt in the chat anytime to start a new discussion.
How to chat with us
Get the Substack app by clicking this link or the button below. New chat threads won’t be sent sent via email, so turn on push notifications so you don’t miss conversation as it happens. You can also access chat on the web.
Open the app and tap the Chat icon. It looks like two bubbles in the bottom bar, and you’ll see a row for my chat inside.
That’s it! Jump into my thread to say hi, and if you have any issues, check out Substack’s FAQ.
