Hey all! Happy 2026! Gavin and I wish you all the best in your endeavors this year—and we would love to hear about them (and how we can help!)

We started the On the Fringe Substack last January (2025) and have more downloads and interest than we could have imagined. We wouldn’t be here without you guys and can’t thank you enough for your support. We literally started with 0, and have had over 6,000 downloads from our Substack alone, and thousands more views and listens.

Since we started Season 3 in August, We’ve doubled our listeners (and it’s not just Aunt Leena telling Aunt Nelda). We are seeing real listener growth with the show and will keep it going strong for Season 4.

As we keep growing, we want to hear more from y’all! What do you like, what do you NOT like, and where can we get better to provide you a better listener experience. We’re going to keep unraveling geopolitical events and AI as we move forward into season 4 and will be coming at you with more in the coming weeks!

Thanks again!

Dave and Gavin
