Now, hello everyone. We have very important news for you. It's not important news really.
I mean in the context of our relationship with you it's important news. So many people
have asked us about having an ad free tier and that is what we want to talk to you about
now in this advert. I'm aware that's ironic because now is your chance to join us as we
welcome the first ever members of our The Rest is Entertainment Club.
And the benefits of membership are really rather lovely, aren't they, Richard?
Well, you would expect so.
We would expect I think that.
They're probably not going to shock listeners of other podcasts who have ad-free tiers.
No, I mean, we haven't broken them all, but for starters, you will get all the shows ad-free.
So we know the ads which support the show are not for everyone.
So if you'd rather not hear them, we're going to have a membership level just for you, which
we call our VIP club. Like all VIP clubs clubs there are about five levels above that as well so
you go in the VIP door you're like oh my god there's like another door. Yes and our VIPs will also get
early access to our questions and answers episode which will be available the same time as the main
episode on a Tuesday. And here is something exciting Our VIP members will also get early access to live show tickets
about which we may have some news fairly imminent.
We've never done a live show though. That's a hopeless thing to have unless we decided
to do one.
Unless there's something coming down the slipway.
Much against our better judgement.
To do something crazy.
You will be able to get priority tickets to our shows a full 48 hours before the general
public. No waiting online in queues, the best tickets guaranteed. That's if we do a live show. If something is about to happen.
I'm not saying we've been bullied by all the significant people in our lives to do one.
Plus you will also get access to all of our newsletters including those from previous weeks,
which mean you'll be able to check out all our recommendations for TV, movies and books. So that
is our VIP
level and hopefully that will work out nicely for many of you. I know lots of people have
asked. However, that is not all. Told you. Yeah. If you would enjoy bonus content, including
episodes dedicated to single subjects, really deep dives by two obsessives, there is another
tier of this club just for you. Don't tell me VIP plus. It is. It includes everything you get from VIP membership and much more.
It is called I'm reading this for the first time, but it's OK.
Access all areas.
But would it be well, I bet there's another tier above that.
When you go to like a gig and they give you like triple A and you go,
oh, I'm triple A.
And then you see someone else with like a golden thing.
You're like, oh, God, I might as well have like a piece of toilet roll around my neck. It's called access all areas
Well you are selling this. Can I just say you've done this before haven't you?
Yeah, I have yeah, it's called access all areas and we'll be providing regular extra shows
Marina will start us off on a deep dive in to say the life and work of Steven Seagal
Yeah, I'm going to talk about Steven Seagal at some length. Exactly. Then, you know, I'll do something on what would I do?
Richard, you might do a special on your favourite Spielberg movie, Jaws.
Or I might do something, actually what I'm more likely to do is a series of specials on
the movies of Guy Ritchie. We might also-
I'll be right here for it.
We might team up and do, could we talk days ago about doing an episode on It's a Royal Knockout?
But what we're saying is we will be doing extra podcasts on areas that we love, like deep dive into stuff that we care about. Listen,
they might be niche.
Some people might find them esoteric, but we will really sell them to you.
To reiterate, VIP, you get ad free, you get access to tickets should we do a live show,
you get the question and answers episode early as well. And for that access all areas, there
will be extra bonus content as well. They're both good deals. And for details of them please go to therestisentertainment.com
that is therestisentertainment.com to join our members club. It's going to be a huge amount of
fun. It is going to be a huge amount of fun and by the way you do not have to sign up you really
don't. We will continue doing everything we always do and the advertisers will pay for it and you can
enjoy it exactly what you want
this is just if it's something you would like to do if there's something that
you'd like extra staff or you'd like no ads anything like that do it but you do
not have to we will still be doing the podcast exactly as normal I'm saying
it's not compulsory we would never force anyone into anything it's just a lot of
people have asked us about this so it is now being offered visit the rest is
