I think in terms of equity, it would be nice to have a way for those who are requesting a gifted/sponsor subscription not to have to make their personal details public? It would make for admin for you but a google form would allow people to submit their data privately.
I will sponsor someone you list in the Doc. To avoid confusion we need a way of early on indicating who we are sponsoring. I like the idea of a personal sponsorship. Up Internationalism!
I can indicate now who I would like to sponsor from the early responses. But maybe some would not want to publicize their sponsorship. So how to accommodate those people?
Secondly, I think a presentation by you for this first round would be best. A brief history of the progress of play research and its impact might be a good place to start. My limited research is into pre-commercial popular leisure (18th/19th/early 20thC) and how that relates to the play element in culture.
I'm really looking forward to this meeting. I just became a paid member and have 5 1-month memberships I can share. Please message me with your email, and I will send it to you if you are in need of financial support.
I am very interested, but am humbly in the needs sponsorship category. I have gotten and continue to get a lot out of your book, your letters here, and the comments sections that follow. I would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to not miss out on further offerings!
Really, I'm just curious to explore the idea of a "public educator", because we sort of have those, but not exactly. You started this substack and then because of life you can't interact with all of us, even if you wanted to.

Bummer! I won't be able to make it to this first one either but I definitely love this idea! Thank you!
Hi Peter, I am so glad you are doing this! But I will be unable to participate in this first one. I will look forward to future opportunities.
Love the gift economy aspect here🙏🏽 Please let us know when the google doc is ready. Look forward to joining the calls!
I would love to be in this meeting. Is there an event page or way to lock it in?
I'm in. And subscribed :)

I am interested in becoming a subscriber and attending monthly meetings. However, will they be recorded if there is a schedule conflict?
I would join if I got gifted a subscription.
