1. Question: is the ratio of male/female responses in line with your subscriber demo? If not, why would men overwhelmingly respond vs the woman? 🧐

1. Question: is the ratio of male/female responses in line with your subscriber demo? If not, why would men overwhelmingly respond vs the woman? 🧐
2. We’ve turned into a visual society. Watching a music video is multi sensory vs listening to a song in your headset. That said. I want my MTV back. Think of all the new music we discovered thanks to curated music video programming!! It’s now a comedy/reality/talk show station with no “M” in the TV. AXS has cool programming but not straight up music videos like the glory days of MTV. We need a player to come in with a 24/7 channel featuring programming slots for a variety of genres. And offer that shit on Netflix / Apple TV as part of the basic package. Sprinkle in VJ’s with fun facts and short artist interviews. Put Ray Romano music programming formats in front of Jackie Gleason viewers and we’ll at least have something to talk about.
In terms of question one, I'm not sure. Unless I've missed it, I don't think Substack gives you user demographics. I suspect my subscribers skew male based on the people who comment, but I really have no idea.
Substack demos would be nice, but those questions would certainly scare off new subs. Just thinking out loud on that one. Too often I hear that women don’t respond to questions, invites, offers. Just curious if this is one of those times.
A good question. When I look at a Substack post’s likers and commenters, I often get the sense that there’s a larger group of readers who like but don’t comment, that these might almost be two separate groups. Maybe the same with survey respondents. Are they significantly different in age, gender, etc. from the regular readers, likers and/or commenters? I feel Substack commenters skew a little old and male, but I don’t know if Chris’s respondents are like that. About half of the survey respondents were over 50. Does that mean old, or not? Same with the 3:1 male:female ratio in respondents: Is that what to expect for a data-driven blog, or not?
And the MTV Unplugged series. Bits and pieces are out there on YouTube. But last summer PBS started streaming Dylan’s 1994 Unplugged appearance and it reminded me what a great format that was, how it encouraged more stripped-down performances of the greatest hits:
You know I’m chiming in on this one!

Maybe Lana Del Rey for the first of the new series?
How cool would that be?!?
