Culture Study

Welcome to Culture Study!   Culture Study is for people who want to think more about the culture that surrounds them.  “Culture” can expand to include pretty much anything. Politics can be culture, celebrity can be culture, tourism and feminism and consumerism and work practices — all culture. Sometimes I’ll write things that take weeks to research and report. Sometimes I’ll do Q&As with my other favorite cultural thinkers. The beauty of a newsletter is that I can still write about things even if I can’t think of a headline that will perform well on social media and you can decide — instead of an algorithm — whether or not it’s interesting to you.  Over the years, the Culture Study community has worked hard to make the threads (and comments) into a vibrant space — one of the good places on the internet. We hope you’ll join us!  What’s included on Patreon? The membership includes three paid tiers — newsletter-only, podcast-ony, and the brand new tier that combines all the newsletter and podcast benefits.  Of course, you’re always welcome to join the free tier to access the free newsletters and podcast episodes.   FREE MEMBERSHIP All Free Newsletters Weekly Culture Study Podcast episode — every Wednesday NEWSLETTER ONLY ($5 per month) 2 x Newsletters Per Week (including paywalled content) — every Wednesday and Sunday  2 x Newsletter Threads Per Week — member-only discussion threads every Tuesday and Friday Ability to Comment on All Newsletters Access to the Weekly Things I Read and Loved PODCAST ONLY ($5 per month) Weekly Culture Study Podcast Episode (including bonus segment) — access the subscriber-only Ask Anne Anything segment at the end of every episode Ad-Free Listening — No podcast ads!
