Introducing SATT Premium!

[00:00:00] Welcome back to Scared All The Time. I'm Chris Calari, and I'm Ed Vecola, and this week

[00:00:05] Well, there's no show this week if you're a weekly listener

[00:00:08] You probably already know that if you somehow missed the three or four times we've mentioned it surprise

[00:00:14] We're on break to write and record some new episodes

[00:00:17] Because it is just the two of us and we do have day jobs

[00:00:20] So we kind of need to build that time in so that we can launch season 3

[00:00:23] But we wanted to do a bonus housekeeping episode to introduce you to our premium service

[00:00:30] That's launching today or and also are we calling it premium service? It's what people tell us to call it

[00:00:35] I don't know. Okay, great. So premium service. Yeah scared all the time premium scared all the time premium

[00:00:41] This has been in the works for a little bit. You've probably heard us talking about it

[00:00:44] We finally got all of our ducks in a row and we're excited you can go to our website scared all time podcast calm

[00:00:50] You can go to any of our socials. There'll be links pretty much everywhere

[00:00:53] Which will take you exactly where you need to go or you can go into description of this episode

[00:00:58] Well this announcement whatever we're calling it you can go in the description

[00:01:01] It'll be there as well and look at all the stuff we have to offer great

[00:01:04] Okay, we covered that part so what is on offer?

[00:01:07] Well, we've got three tiers and Ed and I went back and forth on these four

[00:01:13] Months that's part of why this is taking a bit to get the ball rolling because we wanted to make sure that we are

[00:01:19] providing simple tiers and great rewards and that it's the most bang for your buck possible

[00:01:25] So you can sign up for the premium service for as little as $5 starting with the I'm spooked tier

[00:01:31] So this is our introductory tier that gets you access to what we think are the most important basics of any subscription service

[00:01:40] 100% ad free episodes no more localized ad content

[00:01:45] Placed at random for you to listen to just Ed and I

[00:01:49] Be in ourselves and having a good time on Mike. Yeah, no more seven Wells Fargo's ads in a row or like Spanish Lowe's

[00:01:59] Like I don't know I get the weirdest ads. I don't know if it was a where I live

[00:02:02] But yeah, no more of that so then we're also really excited. We know a lot of you love the frogs

[00:02:08] I love the frogs. We want you to have more frogs

[00:02:12] So if you sign up for the introductory tier you get your ad free episodes

[00:02:17] You also get members only frog plus

[00:02:20] So frog plus is a feed of all the episodes

[00:02:24] Starting from Hatman episode one going for forever

[00:02:27] You can listen to all the episodes with my dart frogs singing to you on third Mike quietly in the background

[00:02:34] So for those of you who love the frogs

[00:02:37] This is this is the way to hear them gone to Ed's head. You now have a

[00:02:42] Frog audio track that is recorded of real frogs guys. Yes, we had to find frogs aka go to Chris's apartment

[00:02:49] So you are getting the real deal little friend in the motorcycle sidecar that is the frog plus audio feed

[00:02:56] Yeah, so those two things alone

[00:02:58] We think are probably worth five bucks, but we throw in one more thing for you

[00:03:03] You're gonna get exclusive monthly

[00:03:05] AMA content now AMA is something that you might be familiar with from reddit ask me anything and

[00:03:11] We thought it would be fun instead of just giving you a bonus episode every month

[00:03:15] We would give you a bonus episode that you can interact with so

[00:03:19] We still have to figure out the exact dates that will open the floor each month to the questions

[00:03:25] But each month you'll receive a link

[00:03:27] You'll be able to ask questions anything you want some months

[00:03:31] Maybe we'll theme it some months

[00:03:32] Maybe we won't and we will answer those questions on air for you assuming that they are within reason

[00:03:40] Yeah, I don't know if you show up and there's like a bunch of terms and conditions and rules to ask me anything

[00:03:45] Just know that somebody ruined it for you

[00:03:48] So we're not gonna go to that place until we have to we're just gonna trust you people social contract

[00:03:53] Yeah, you know within reason ask whatever questions you want doesn't have to be about us even it could be about

[00:03:58] What are our thoughts on x y and z? It doesn't have to be you know just our history. No, I know

[00:04:04] Well, that's what I'm saying some months we might theme it

[00:04:06] So like we might do ask us anything about our thoughts on Bigfoot or you know, maybe we'll have a music AMA

[00:04:13] You can ask us what music we listen to or whatever like we'll find different ways to make it interesting

[00:04:18] Yeah, yeah, so that's all in a tier that we're calling

[00:04:21] I'm spooked pretty great, but not as great as the tier that we're calling

[00:04:26] I'm scared which is our mid-level tier and it gets you all the benefits of the introductory tier being

[00:04:32] 100% ad-free

[00:04:33] Frog plus audio monthly AMA content plus you will get in the mail when you sign up

[00:04:39] Not the day you sign up because we're not magicians

[00:04:41] But you will get an official scared all the time welcome button

[00:04:45] So you'll have some merch that you get just for signing up

[00:04:48] You'll get discounts and deals in our soon-to-launch merch store again lots of legwork

[00:04:55] We had no idea it had to be done to launch a merch store. So it's coming soon

[00:04:59] Yeah, no

[00:05:00] It was a lot of like hey

[00:05:01] We're gonna start this next week and then it was four weeks later

[00:05:05] Still talking to companies because I'm a big proponent of and a big fan of made in America doing things with regular people

[00:05:12] We tried to do this like pretty cool and it took time man. It took time and designing the stuff Ed's designing it

[00:05:18] He and I both love good merch. So, you know Ed's doing the designs

[00:05:23] We have to figure out how to get you guys high quality stuff

[00:05:25] So you will get discounts and deals at the I'm scared level

[00:05:29] Details to come yeah details to go and then you also will get at the I'm scared level

[00:05:35] Access to our once a month live stream episode

[00:05:39] Which will be wild

[00:05:41] I'm sure you have no idea the things that we cut out of the episodes that we post so you'll be able to hear us

[00:05:48] Unfiltered uncensored once a month who knows you might watch a movie

[00:05:51] We might talk about some current events that are spooky and strange

[00:05:56] It'll be hangout time with Chris and Ed and we'll have a great time. So that's the I'm scared tier now

[00:06:02] For super fans, we have one more tier called. I'm terrified and I gotta tell you

[00:06:08] I think this is the best year. It's we're definitely doing stuff that some other people aren't doing for sure

[00:06:13] Yeah, some stuff that will probably regret soon learn why other people aren't doing them

[00:06:18] Yeah, you'll get everything you've heard so far at I'm terrified

[00:06:22] You get a hundred percent ad-free frog plus audio exclusive monthly AMA official scared all the time welcome button

[00:06:29] discounts and deals and our soon-to-launch merch store access to our once a month live stream and

[00:06:35] You're entered into our button of the month club

[00:06:38] So each month no joke guys Ed bought a button maker

[00:06:42] And what we want to do for you is each month

[00:06:45] We're gonna design

[00:06:47] Handmake and ship you a new scared all the time themed button straight to your door

[00:06:53] So for all you people who are constantly being like I think it would be an amazing to have a t-shirt for the hose boys

[00:06:58] Or I think it was you should do a thing about frogger

[00:07:01] We want merch of those scared home video things Ed's always talking about well a lot of those ideas will likely end up becoming

[00:07:07] Button of the month club buttons exactly it's a way we can make some merch

[00:07:12] You can collect the buttons and the longer you're subscribed at the terrified level the more buttons

[00:07:17] You'll get

[00:07:18] Including obviously if you sign up right away

[00:07:21] You'll be one of the only people who gets to have all the buttons because you'll get the first button that is true

[00:07:26] That is correct and if you sign up at this level

[00:07:29] It's time for you to buy yourself some fancy sunglasses and a Porsche because you are going to be a producer

[00:07:36] We're gonna give you a producer credit in front of God and the internet on the official scared all the time web page

[00:07:41] Well, we're also gonna tell the world will tell the world your position at least once

[00:07:46] But you will live forever on the scared all-time web page. Yeah, yeah exactly so those are the three tiers

[00:07:51] You've got I'm spooked. I'm scared. I'm terrified and if you can't remember everything we said that's okay

[00:07:57] Go to the website. You can read it all for yourself there again scared all-time

[00:08:01] Podcast calm or any of our socials are all my links all that stuff. You'll be able to find it

[00:08:07] I'm sure you'll be able to find all the things we just said again

[00:08:10] Now you might be doing the math and going wait a second if I sign up now the boys are on break

[00:08:16] It's gonna be a month before I get a new episode anyway. What am I doing?

[00:08:19] Well, the breaks are going to continue every 10 episodes

[00:08:23] We've got to take some time off to get our ducks in a row for the next 10 episodes

[00:08:27] But that's exactly why we're launching this premium service now

[00:08:31] So that all of you who want more scared all the time in your life can get it even when we're technically off the air

[00:08:36] You'll have access to the entire archive to listen to your favorite episodes ad-free or with the dart frogs

[00:08:42] You'll get your button. You'll get to ask your AMA questions and that live episode

[00:08:46] Yeah, the live episode is happening every month whether we're on break or not

[00:08:50] So you're at least gonna be getting us on air for that whether we're on break or not and

[00:08:57] I gotta say this is all new to us and I hope that growth is basically inevitable

[00:09:03] This is what Ed and I can commit to right now

[00:09:06] But in my dream world you guys will get even more added value as we figure out things that we can do

[00:09:11] To have fun for people who have signed up for these tiers

[00:09:14] Yeah, just know that this is going to probably kill us. So

[00:09:19] This is the most I think you guys can't save a christia spit coffee

[00:09:23] Yeah, we this is one of the reasons it took a minute to do

[00:09:25] We were like, what can we possibly do that makes sense for everybody?

[00:09:29] But also we'll put us just on the edge of dying. Yeah, you should know the tier names of i'm spooked

[00:09:35] I'm scared and I'm terrified is not named after the feelings you will be having when you sign up for those episodes

[00:09:42] When you sign up for those tiers that those are the feelings we have about those

[00:09:46] But we know we can do all this. We're really excited that this show has taken off the way that it has

[00:09:52] And in the same way that ed who's talking loves the common person and you know

[00:09:57] I go out of my way to make sure that we're dealing with vendors and things that I can talk to on the phone

[00:10:02] Or regular ass people

[00:10:03] This directly supports the show like this goes into making more of the show

[00:10:09] Just know that if you like this show

[00:10:11] You are literally helping out a couple dudes who do everything on the show like everything is done by us

[00:10:15] It's funny when we were setting this up at each step of it

[00:10:18] We're trying to figure things out and we go ask people and they would be like well, you know

[00:10:23] Go ask your team. They probably have the answer to that. You know your team knows how to use these programs

[00:10:28] Yeah

[00:10:29] No, no, they don't because the team is us and we don't know how to use anything yet

[00:10:32] So we're we're learning as we go but so far we figure we've learned how to make a podcast

[00:10:38] So we should be able to learn how to do all this other high tech shenanigans

[00:10:43] And then we also have tasks who's so helpful and you know, we can talk to the Spanish legends guys

[00:10:47] You know just we have people in the space who have the experience and have done it before

[00:10:51] Who are helpful but they don't have to sit in a room with us and literally physically make everything and do everything

[00:10:56] And design everything that really is just us. Yeah

[00:10:58] Anyway, we hope you guys have some interest in it

[00:11:00] If you do definitely throw a few bones our way and it would go a huge

[00:11:03] Huge way into stepping the show up to the next level

[00:11:06] Absolutely. This is all gonna help grow the show

[00:11:09] And yeah, it's gonna be awesome. So we're off for a couple weeks

[00:11:14] But spread the word go sign up

[00:11:16] Enjoy frog plus as soon as you do and we will talk to you guys soon until then i'm chris kallari and i'm hbkola

[00:11:23] And we will see you in a few weeks. Bye. Bye
