Welcome to Micah's Read of the Week

The Newsletter Edition

Hello, and welcome to Micah’s Read of the Week.

If you’ve been following my podcast, Mind of Micah, you are familiar with the recurring segment: Micah’s Read of the Week. I share a written piece with the audience via my soothing voice, and add some some editorial thoughts. People enjoy it.

The goal for this newsletter is to bring value to you. That’s it. That’s all.

I’ll be writing some things and sharing some things. They will be interesting to me, and hopefully interesting and valuable to you. The newsletter will serve as a companion of sorts to the podcast, but you don’t need to listen to get value out of the newsletter. And it’s free. And will always be free.

You probably have some questions. Here are some answers

• What is this newsletter? What is it about?

  Each edition will contain my thoughts on the week, and links to interesting articles, podcasts, and other media. Topics will vary- the only criteria is that I find it interesting. There will be discussion and links about news, sports, entertainment, politics, food, recipes, and more.

• Why should I subscribe?

  Because you like to read interesting things. Each week, you’ll get a bunch of interesting pieces in one place, via email. And, it’s free.

• When is this going to be published?

  The newsletter will hit your inbox each Monday. Time is TBD and may change depending on trial and error, but the plan is a Monday release.

• Why is Micah doing this? What has Micah been up to?

  It seems like the right thing to do. I enjoy newsletters. I think I can do one that’s different than anything out there, better than the competition, and special enough to stand on its own. So we’re gonna give it a shot. And it’s free, so…

  It’s been a tough year. For everybody. I was laid off from my day job due to COVID in April. We postponed our wedding to 2021. It stinks. In the meantime, I’ve ramped up work with our podcast consulting firm MWBK Creative + Sales. I’ve consistently recorded Mind of Micah and our sports podcast, Back Door Cover, and launched a new sports podcast with our friends at Washed Media called Too Much Dip. We premiered at the end of July as the #5 sports show on Apple Podcasts.

• What do I do now?

  Subscribe and share. Please do me a favor and share this with a friend. Hopefully you’ll enjoy it and they’ll enjoy it to. And if you don’t like it, give it two weeks, then feel free to unsubscribe. No hard feelings, I promise.

• Where else can I find Micah content?

  I’m glad you asked.
