Welcome home! Substack subscription worked for me.

Hello! I love my subscription, John, Navel Gazing is a marvel. I think your first episode second season is one of your best. I know this from accessing it off my email. My Apple Podcast is a fail, though. I need to hear your silky voice on my long daily walks through the woods of Bloomington, IN. Please add me: eahorwit@gmail.com, Elizabeth Horwitz

Lisa, you're a subscriber, so you can listen through the Substack app. Just go to the individual episode and press play.

Beautiful shot! Welcome back. We hope to travel to Ireland in another year or so. If you would like to share any insights regarding what to experience, that would be great!

Gorgeous picture! I want to print that on my mind.... Welcome home, and, yes, I have access to Navel Gazing 2. Thank you for that!

Thank you thank you! And welcome home.

Thanks for repairing matters so promptly and thoroughly. My thwarted habit without its “fix” was seriously concerning! I was surviving by listening again to your free segments and finding a second pass to reveal further nuggets, so recommend other subscribers invest in this kind of double-dipping into any/all of these treasures !🤓🤗

Thank you for that IT fix. It worked! It made my Thursday, as I have both Navel Gazing 2 and The Gabfest to look forward to today!

Hi! I love Navel Gazing and would love to have access to it. I don’t think I’ve been added (it’s prompting me to upgrade to listen).

John Dickerson's avatar

Sarah, you’re sorted!

Sarah McWhirt-Toler's avatar

Thank you! I’m working on a Doctor of ministry final project, and your work has been both an encouragement and an inspiration. ❤️

John Dickerson's avatar

That’s very flattering! Do you mind telling me what the project is?

Sarah McWhirt-Toler's avatar

Sure! I’m writing (in a creative writing and public theology program) about my life as a clergy woman and a mother, living in a house that my mother has built an in-law apartment on, looking honestly through my personal and professional experiences with death and dying. The collection of these stories, woven together, tell about how facing the reality of death honestly can be the foundation of a household theology, as well as a professional one. The theology of the piece is a proposal of memento mori as a means of grace.

A too long answer!

Beautiful, fascinating, intriguing. I’d love to see it some day.

Relieved to know it wasn't just my lame IT skills! Glad I didn't cancel my subscription. Welcome back!

Hi John - Just signed up here for your newsletter. Looking forward to listening to Navel Gazing as well when you have a moment to sort me out.

It’s so nice to now have access to the new season of Navel Gazing. Thank you!

Megan Walton's avatar

Hi John - I was thrilled to happen upon this today, but could only get Ep 1 of season 1. (My lame IT staff again 🙄). How can I find the rest of Season 1? (Btw, you got screwed by cbs, but also got out at the right time. You are missed.) Thanks!

John Dickerson's avatar

Hey Megan, it’s available for paid subscribers. I have you down as just a subscriber. Let me know if there is an error.

Clarese Walker's avatar

I canceled my subscription because I couldn’t see content. Can you reenable it?

John Dickerson's avatar

Clarese, It shows you are good for both.
