Just Mets announces podcast & new slate of content offerings 🎉
Introducing The Just Mets Podcast and new paid content from your top source for daily Mets news!
It’s been nearly four years since we made our endeavor to re-launch Just Mets, and we couldn’t be more proud of how far we’ve come. From our initial return through today, we’ve expanded our site to be a streamlined source of all news, updates, and stats you need to know along with our own team analysis with a 100% free newsletter that drops every single morning.
One area that we have lacked in, however, is the ability to offer additional types of content to our great supporters. Until now.
Today we are thrilled to announce that Just Mets is officially expanding our coverage in several ways with new paid and free content. We are hopeful that these new offerings — in addition to what we provide on a daily basis 365 days a year — will only create a better overall experience for each and every one of you here at Just Mets…
New Paid Subscription Offerings
Introducing: The Just Mets Podcast 🎙️
We are super excited to announce the launch of our brand-new official Just Mets podcast, which will be available exclusively to our paid subscribers. This podcast will drop every Monday, where host Rich MacLeod will be joined by a different guest every week, recapping the week prior and previewing the week ahead. Guests will include reporters, Mets content creators, and some of our favorite Mets fans out there.
First official episode drops after the holiday weekend!
Emergency Pods & Instant Reactions 🚨
In addition to our weekly show, we will also be recording emergency podcasts and reactions to major breaking news, rumors, and even after some games if the occasion calls for it.
Bonus Articles 📝
In addition to our new podcast, you will also get access to exclusive bonus articles right here on Just Mets. In addition to our daily newsletters, these new articles will offer our writers a chance to dive in deeper on certain topics, themes, or players in a way that our daily newsletters and recaps don’t always allow for within the current format. This is just another way our team wants to be able to offer up additional breakdowns, analysis, and quality content to our loyal followers.
Content That YOU Want 💭
As paid subscribers, we want you to have a direct link to us. This not only means your standard Q&As or mailbags (which we’ll do), but also taking what you want into account. If you have ideas for additional types of content like video breakdowns, podcast types, specific guests, etc. for our paid offerings, we want to hear it!
If you are currently a paid subscriber to Just Mets, you will automatically be given access to all of our next exclusive paid content on Substack and Patreon – be on the lookout for an email in your inboxes soon!
To any new subscribers who are interested, you can sign up for a paid subscription on Substack or Patreon (you only need to sign up for one and will be given access to both platforms!)
Updates to Free Content
Daily Newsletters will remain FREE 🗞️
Before you worry, rest assured that our daily newsletters will remain 100% free for as long as we’re running this site. While we are always looking for ways to adequately compensate our staff for the time and effort they put in, the newsletter is a flagship of our content that we strongly believe should remain a free offering. No changes there!
The Return of Just Mets Live! 🎙️
As we’ve done at times in the past, we will be bringing back Just Mets LIVE – an interactive call-in show on Twitter Spaces – on a more recurring basis. This allows us a medium where you, the fans, can join and ask our hosts questions or share your own thoughts on what’s going on with the team right in that moment. If you’re unable to join our shows live, they were be added to our podcast feed for you to listen back to free of charge!
Podcast Clips & Previews 🎧
While our new flagship podcast will largely be exclusive to our paid subscribers, we will still be dropping clips from our weekly shows that will be shared on YouTube and social media, in addition to unlocking to occasional full episode to show you what you might be missing!
Introducing Our Newest Writer 🧑💻
For us to be able to add all of these new content offerings, Just Mets co-creator Rich MacLeod will largely transition his responsibilities to running all paid content (audio, video and bonus articles) meaning that we had an opening for a writer to contribute to our daily newsletters.
With that, we are incredibly excited to introduce Drew Van Buskirk as the newest staff member of Just Mets! Drew is a long-time Mets fan that has written with Metsmerized and Rising Apple in the past, in addition to running his own Substack, Piazza Party.
Please be sure to subscribe to our new channels on Patreon and YouTube, and follow us on Twitter and Threads if you haven’t already!
Subscribe and leave a review for The Just Mets Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and wherever you get your podcasts!
Just Mets is giving us oodles of things to look forward to. Thanks!
Excited to have you aboard, Drew, and I can't wait to start getting these podcasts & bonus content out for you all! We appreciate the support 🧡💙
