Welcome New Friend!

You're In. Congratulations
On Your Excellent Taste.

You just joined tens of thousands of people who'd rather know what's actually happening in this city than find out about it three days later on Instagram.

Now go check your email.

There's a welcome message from me heading your way, and there's a free gift inside it. I'm not telling you what it is here, because that would ruin it, and because I want you to open the email.

When you do, I'm going to ask you one question. Answer it. It takes four seconds, it tells your email provider we're friends, and it means you'll actually keep getting these instead of watching them rot in Promotions.

If it hasn't shown up in a couple minutes, check Promotions or Spam and drag it where it belongs.

Small print, big feelings: Your email is safe with me. I'm not selling it to anyone, because I'm not a monster, and because that's how you end up in the kind of inbox nobody opens.

See you Tuesday.
