On the topic of The Economist. I have been a subscriber twice, but each time cancelled because I was endlessly behind on the huge number of quality articles.
I am however yet again considering subscription. But are there any other good physical magazines to consider? I have considered The New Yorker as well, but I need to research whether I can have that delivered to Denmark. But any other suggestions given that I really like in depth articles on diverse topics. Not necessarily latest news also just interesting long-form stories.
- tonyedgecombe 7y agoI was the same. Once I paid for it I felt I had to get my moneys worth but there is a lot to get through every week. I tend to read it at the library now (well until the thing arrived on our shores).
- q-base 7y agoYes, even though I am a very active reader, I felt that I almost had a month worth of reading every week.
- jkmcf 7y agoThe Economist is my favorite reading material when flying, which I don't do enough to sustain a subscription. I wish they (and others!) would release an essentials podcast w/ a reasonable subscription -- a succinct (1-2h?) presentation capturing the important articles' facts, theses, and arguments.
- slavik81 7y agoI've heard good things about "Delayed Gratification." It's a quarterly magazine that "revisits the events of the last three months to offer in-depth, independent journalism in an increasingly frantic world."
- q-base 7y agoThat looked too interesting to pass. I signed up immediately for the print magazine delivered to my door, every quarter. Thanks a lot for mentioning that. I really look forward to seeing it in person!
