Starting today, all your paid subscriptions will be moved over to substack!
I'm still a huge fan of the locals platform, but with my small audience, and desire to publish podcasts and articles directly, substack is a better fit for The Local Maximum right now.
The substack is at localmaximum.substack.com - you should be getting some emails for the latest episodes. Always feel free to reach out at [email protected]
Folks - I know we've been on hiatus for the last few weeks, but I'm looking forward to getting back into the Local Maximum, and also supporting our move over to substack! I hope to reach out to you individually as well!
Happy holidays everyone!
Let's disrupt our festivities with some thought-provoking insights into our future.

Make sure to tune in as you welcome the new year!
