Listener named Brian wrote in about our April episode where we talked to Verge reporter Liz Lopato about the rise and fall of Vice Media, which is honestly very fun. I love any time we can talk to Liz. Brian wrote, the conversation about funding sources and problems at Vice got me thinking, how can we as readers and listeners best support what you do at the Verge?

We've also had some listeners write in asking about ways to get around the paywall, not to, you know, stiff us, but for students or academic purposes like gift links or organizational memberships.

I'd love to figure out a way to give my students easy access to articles so they don't encounter the paywall. I'd be willing to help offset the cost of individual articles I leverage. For example, could we partner together on an affiliate link approach? I'd also turn it into a meta assignment for them to learn more about affiliate marketing and the disruption in the creator and content economy.

Speaking of Blue Sky, that's where this next question came from. And I'm already laughing. It's from Caridot Peters, who writes, there's too much talk about podcasts as the primary source of information as news. And I get why. No or fewer paywalls. Do you see any alternative? Do you, Neil, I still believe in websites. Oh my God.
