Just wondering what are y'all doing for side gigs these days?

It's far from a fortune, and its future is uncertain, but I've been earning a bit via donations with my writing/podcasting for almost 20 years now: https://www.damninteresting.com

I'm also working on diversifying, starting with a free daily word game that I hope gets a little traction on Patreon: https://omiword.com

I have a few other projects-in-progress, if I'm lucky, one will earn a dollar or two.

Hey DI! I haven't seen that site in years! I remember the audio podcast versions of excellent stories. Very neat, odd stories that aren't taught in history books.

Perhaps post on various podcast-like platforms and do the merch thing? Keith Olbermann posts audio-only episodes to Youtube. Thom Hartmann does Deezer, Tidal, Spotify, SoundCloud and so on.
