On this week’s episode, Tim Stoddart (@timstodz) and Ethan Brooks (@damn_ethan) talk through the recent launch of Substack’s new reading app, how it affects Substack writers, and what you can do to protect yourself and keep growing your business.

IMPORTANT: As mentioned in the show, we looked deeper into Substack’s new functionality, and it appears writers DO still get access to the email addresses of new subscribers who sign up via the app. That’s a big deal, and very pro-writer on Substack’s part. However, our warnings still stand about building an audience on a centralized platform.
