Shifting things to free basically for content produced shows.
Get ad-free podcasts/priority chat.
Pretty much all Premium only content is going Free, but you can still get ad-free video and podcasts and the GB Vault through Premium.
Shows will be free
Premium is:
•Ad-free podcasts
•The big existing library of premium content
•Priority Chat
•10% off all merch
•Occasional premium exclusive merch
•Behind the scenes stuff, Hangouts, Community Q&As, some other videos
•Some kind of discord perks
•Will have multiple tiers eventually
•Rorie claims he will write birthday cards, get a beer with people, show people the office ???

This is all very exciting stuff. The energy is great, professional and clear and there's some real fun ahead. Feels like the era with Jeff G and no Vinny/Alex/Brad was definitely just to keep the wheels turning while they set all this in place. Proper restart now.
Premium just sounds like Patreon support now:
Behind the scenes vids, discord channels, exclusive merch

What are "Hangouts"? The return of Thursday Night Throwdown?

I will also add that premium offers you the classic content as well. It's just that the current shows and future shows are going free.
Yes. All videos are free.
If there is a cheaper tier I might sub to get rid of ads. But yeah, don't see a whole lot of reasons for me. Personally to subscribe. (which I honestly appreciate)
But yes it also sounds like they are going to "vault" old videos so if u want to watch something older might need to sub for that
I think free shows makes sense now, considering how much the cast has changed in the past year.
Can't expect people to sub for personality-based content when they don't know the personalities.

I'll threadmark this. Also yes, Bakalar said UPF is going free.
Cool, no reason to sub.
One thing I didn't understand, are the archives of now free produced content will be free after they are archived?

it sounds like no, that will be the 'vaulted' content you get access to with prem.
edit: I misread your question, the new content archives will also be free.
Yeah. The only archive stuff that will be premium is everything going back from now.
I think this pivot is better especially if they really get in on interacting with the community.
I think I heard Dan mention a long running Film & Snyder 40's??
I wonder if stuff will get vaulted after a certain amount of time
Like they do a upf next week.
Does it ever become vaulted content?
Could be, interesting to see how it goes since the message from the past has been that premium subs are what kept GB a going concern.
I think we have all done a drastic 180 from 24 hours ago. Really nice work of them to get people excited. Dan is an instant buy for me. I dont know that all these announcements work without him leading the creative direction. I just hope RV doesnt suck the life out of them like it seemingly did to the OG crew.
Props to them for recovering and shout out to my boy Jan who is the fucking HOST of the Bombcast!!! Hell yeah duder
