Hi everyone,
Welcome back to Sinobabble!
Sorry for another unexplained absence. There was a mix of good (work promotion) and bad (roof collapse) things going on. But I’m glad to say that I will be back for now.
While I’ve been away I’ve been thinking about how to take Sinobabble to the next level. I’m really happy to announce a few changes going forward to enhance what I’m offering you all.
You’ve probably noticed that a lot of the branding has changed. This is all thanks to the hard work of my husband, so any nice words you have to say about it would be greatly appreciated! I hope you like it. I really love it and I feel like it expresses what Sinobabble is all about.
In terms of content changes, there are big changes coming to each platform so I’ll go through them individually.
Podcast
I’ll be releasing one episode every 2-3 weeks, both in audio format and with video on YouTube. I think this is manageable, especially as I love long-form too much to commit to creating lots of shorter, less detailed episodes!
I also want to provide more content on other platforms, especially for paid subscribers so they feel they’re getting something extra out of their subscription.
Substack
There will be one newsletter every two weeks in the standard format, talking about the news topics we usually cover.
I also want to use the chat feature more to share interesting things I’ve found with you guys and get your feedback on future newsletter ideas. I’ve already started using it. So do hop on there and share your thoughts!
I will also be creating an audio version of every newsletter exclusively for paid subscribers, with extra commentary on what I’ve been researching. If you prefer to listen than read then hopefully it appeals. I’d love to get some feedback on that idea too!
Buy Me a Coffee
I’ve created two tiers for paying subscribers with lots of benefits:
1 biased video per month – featuring my real thoughts and feelings about China and China-related news
1 biased video per month
1 livestream ‘behind the scenes’ chat room per month

I hope you guys are looking forward to upcoming content! If you’ve got any suggestions or feedback for me at this point I’d love to hear from you. As always, leave a comment, send an email, or reach out on “X” (and if you’re wondering, a Sinobabble Instagram, and maybe even some other channels, are coming soon!)
It’s good to be back,
Edi x
Yay looks great! Well done Martin ❤️❤️
