We are now living in a world where paying humans to do the creative arts seems like an act of civil rebellion.

In 25 years, the world has gone from paying for daily/weekly/monthly written content - to not - and back to it. Then, 24 y/o me was of the “content should be free!” mentality. But after running my own music site for 15 years and freelancing, subscriptions again seems sane.

For years, advertising has been how Stereogum made money to pay its writers. While we made progress moving away from that model, Google AI search has decimated the business almost overnight. Today we relaunch with a greater focus on subscription. We’d love your support: stereogum.com/2478838/ster...

So, the trend for the last 36 years leads me to believe that Kurtz and Wilson will be Braves at some point.
Teammates to finish 1-2 in ROY voting:

2025 ATH: Nick Kurtz, Jacob Wilson
2022 ATL: Michael Harris II, Spencer Strider*
2011 ATL: Craig Kimbrel, Freddie Freeman*
1989 CHC: Jerome Walton, Dwight Smith
1984 SEA: Alvin Davis, Mark Langston
1975 BOS: Fred Lynn, Jim Rice

A lot of the discourse around the passing of Lenny Wilkins is around Seattle, and rightly so, but he was also a legend of the Hawks franchise. Maybe that is muted a bit because he played in St. Louis and not Atlanta.

Khruangbin tell us why they re-recorded their debut album for its 10th anniversary — and why they surprise-released it today, 10 years to the day since it originally arrived.

"We've learned to just lean into ourselves and be who we are unapologetically.”

I am not a politics person but I guess no one in the democratic party has watched ‘Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?’ because maybe they would have learned something from Pappy O'Daniel.

Today is Jeff Blauser’s 60th birthday. The two-time All-Star spent a decade with the Braves.

He’s also @langwhitaker.bsky.social’s all-time favorite player.
