Show News & Updates: Very Important

Join the show's PATREON! Early access to new episodes PATREON ONLY Content Series on the JANISSARIES Sum-up Empires Podcast the Ottomans officially breaks for the holidays from December 22 through January 1, 2024 (I forgot to announce this in the Podcast) Changes for 2024 Main narration will be cut back to 2 times a month. The "in between" weeks will see premium content for Patreon only listeners, you will get a 5 or ten minutes teaser for the bonus content. I'll be posting a "wish-list" from Amazon of books on the Ottoman Empire. If you purchase something for me I'll make sure you get premium content for a year (since it's more expensive than Patreon). Right now the show qualifies for Spotify ad program. HOWEVER I HATE ads. I'll assess the Patreon membership by July of 2024 and cross the ad bridge when I get there. Thanks for sticking with me for 2023. I've got a whole lot of content planned out for 2024 and am very excited! -Frank
