Hi, everyone. We're doing something a little differently today.

We're sharing one of our spicy bonus episodes from Substack, right here in the main feed as a special preview.

This conversation originally went out to our premium Substack subscribers last week, and we thought you'd love to hear the kind of deeper, more personal discussions we have over there.

In this episode, we get into two topics that have been on our minds.

Ongoing debates about school attendance policies because of two episodes of more to say that I did about those policies.

And our thoughts on Taylor Allison Swift's latest album announcement.

It is exactly the kind of candid, meandering conversation you get when we have some time behind the paywall.

Things are a little looser. Things get a little spicier.

So we hope you enjoy this taste of our premium episodes. We do one of these spicy bonus episodes every week on Substack, along with our two premium shows.

Good Morning and more to say.

There are community discussions and other bonuses like our film club and our slow read of Habits of the Heart.

If you're interested in getting more like this, now's the perfect time to do it.

We're running an end of summer sale with 15% off annual subscriptions. So if you love this

spicy bonus episode and what more like this, join our subset community for less today. Use the link in

the show notes, but do not delay this deal ends August 31st. Thanks for listening and we'll see you

back here on Friday for our regular episode.

Hello, everyone.

It is Thursday, August 14th, also known as the Day After the New Heights podcast with Taylor Swift.

So we will talk about that.

But first, we are going to continue the conversation. We've been having on more to say this week about attendance. Sarah, you told me that you have so much more to say about that. And I'm excited to hear from you.

Well, I've been talking about attendance a lot this week. So I'm going to say one thing. And then I'm mostly interested in your reaction. I would like to share why I came back from break and started with school attendance at a time when there are a lot of things happening in the world. So I have been thinking a lot about how much people want a call to action around news and politics.
