Episode 980: Budget Day (PROMO)

This is a strategist episode 980, except it's not.

And unlike always, Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter are not with me because, again, like I just said, it's not really episode 980, folks.

My name is still Zain Velji, of course, so we've got that going on. And folks, let's talk about it. And should I go with folks or folk? What do you prefer?

What are we doing here?

You know, we told you last time that Thursday episodes are now Patreon exclusive.

What does that mean for you? It means something very simple. You need to go to strategistpatreon.com and you need to pay far more than this show is worth.

That's right, $6 a month or $2 per strategist. That's 50 cents an episode per strategist to get access to that Thursday content, you know, and that Thursday content that

you know, that content. It's the same as every other fucking show we do. We waste 10 minutes of your time. We then get down to business unpacking the strategic choices politicians make. We make fun of Steven. We talk about our sponsor. We talk about what we would do if we were lucky enough to be in the halls of power making these decisions that no one would ever allow us to make.

you're still here. Well, you may have other questions. Fine. Let's hear them.

You ask, will there be headlines? Maybe. I haven't decided yet. You ask, Zane, do I get anything else for my $6? First of all, rude. Second of all, greedy. Third of all, yes. Yes, you do. You get access to our, wait for it, Discord server. Also, I have no fucking clue what that is. You also get to help me write the show. And yes, I am aware. That means you are doing my job for me. but welcome to the world of capitalism and delegation you're welcome and

and you also get any other special episodes we do in fact we just recorded an episode earlier this week where we talked about the firing of alberta health services ceo verna you we talked about what that means for health care in alberta and spoiler alert it means stuff that's

that's pretty good pretty good value for six dollars if i say so myself but i hear others at the back who really should be at at the front because I hear them asking some excellent questions.

And some of those questions sound like, Zane, what if I want even more? Well, good news for you, person who just moved to the front. We're willing to take even more of your money because at $10 a month, you get access to video live streams of our recording. You can watch them in real time or after the fact. It's really up to you. We don't really care. We don't even care if you watch them or not. We just care if you pay us the money.

And then, of course, for $20 a month, you can join us for periodic AMAs, which stand for ask me anything or if you're in alberta alberta motor vehicle association we're going to share strategic advice look behind the curtain do all that sort of stuff

that's at 20 a month and yes we know that amongst this listener base there are some ballers there are some big fucking deals and for those of you who fit into that category there's

there's a 1500 a month level that is right you get to treat yourself because you're worth it that's

that's it folks no more questions nothing but excitement and the instructions are simple go to strategist patreon.com right now like literally right now and sign up before the first thursday episode drops it drops today tonight because today is thursday and
