Hello Classic Crew and welcome to today's video where we're going to be talking about
00:00:04.800
some awesome new things going on at Classically Abbey.
00:00:14.080
If you are new to my channel, here we talk about classic living and traditional values
00:00:17.880
and I would love if you would consider subscribing and hitting that notification bell.
00:00:21.480
And if you haven't already subscribed to my Substack newsletter where you'll get access
00:00:24.700
to a ton of exclusive content including some really cool new stuff that I'm about to share
00:00:29.400
right now, make sure to head over to classicallyabbey.substack.com.
00:00:35.260
If you guys didn't know, I have a Substack newsletter where I do a ton of exclusive content.
00:00:41.220
I talk about it at the beginning of all of my YouTube videos but I haven't really shared
00:00:45.700
a lot about it lately on my channel to share with you guys why you should join.
00:00:50.340
But what's really, really exciting is that I just recently announced a bunch of new additional
00:00:55.600
content that premium subscribers get access to that I think you're really going to love.
00:01:03.040
This has been a long time in the making and I absolutely love the community over at Substack.
00:01:07.760
We are having the best time with the women there.
00:01:10.400
We're discussing a bunch of interesting stuff and it's really a wonderful place to meet people
00:01:16.380
who share our worldviews or if they disagree, disagree respectfully so we can have really fruitful
00:01:22.460
conversations. So I'm really excited to get into today's video, so let's hop into it.
00:01:27.520
Okay, so I want to start off by sharing a little bit about what we already do on my Substack newsletter
00:01:32.540
so if you don't know, you'll have the info. So starting off, if you become a premium subscriber,
00:01:38.780
you'll get access to a weekly article that I write. And this really ranges the gamut from listicles
00:01:44.360
like how to do your hair on a bad hair day to kind of thoughtful analyses of motherhood and
00:01:51.640
relationships and stuff like that. And we also do weekly discussion threads where I pose a question
00:01:57.640
and you guys write your answers in the comments and we discuss them. So for example, we've had
00:02:03.520
what's your love language? Or if you could choose any name that isn't yours to be called,
00:02:09.840
what name would you choose? So for example, I love the name Jean. I've always loved the name Jean,
00:02:14.980
so I think if I wasn't named Abby, I would like to be called Jean. And it's really cool to see your
00:02:19.980
guys' responses and then see you respond to each other. It's really fun. I also do a monthly live
00:02:25.240
stream Q&A here on YouTube, but I only answer questions from my premium subscribers. So if you want
00:02:31.120
to submit your questions to me over there, you can. You just submit your question and then I'll answer it
00:02:35.820
in my live stream Q&A. And last but not least is our book club. So I absolutely love our book club.
00:02:42.000
We are currently reading a book called The Undomestic Goddess. It's a really fun summer beach read, but it
00:02:46.780
really fits in with a lot of the stuff we talk about here. And I think if you joined, you would
00:02:51.540
absolutely love it. We do Zoom calls and we actually chat with each other in person, in person, but over
00:02:56.600
the internet. And it's a really cool way for us to get to know each other, discuss books. And the nice
00:03:01.360
thing about it being on Zoom is you don't have to actually find somebody to babysit your kids if you
00:03:05.560
have them and make your way somewhere. You can do it from home. So I love that about it. So that's
00:03:10.800
what you're already getting for $7 a month. And if you sign up for the whole year, you get two months
00:03:15.480
for free for $70, which is really just the cost of like one fancy drink from Starbucks. If you think
00:03:21.280
about that, if you say, okay, I just won't get one fancy drink at Starbucks this month. Instead,
00:03:25.280
I'll get all of this exclusive content. Then it really makes sense. But I just announced a bunch of
00:03:32.220
really exciting new things and I cannot wait to share. Okay, let's get right into it with my
00:03:38.620
podcast. So I had initially had a podcast called the classic girl's guide, but I felt like it needed
00:03:45.720
a little bit of an update. And so I have officially brought my husband on and we are doing a joint
00:03:52.520
podcast called classically ever after. I'll read you the description that I wrote up. I wrote here on
00:03:58.620
our podcast. We will discuss the ins and outs of marriage and relationships, parenthood,
00:04:03.340
classic living, and navigating the modern era while maintaining traditional values. From philosophy to
00:04:09.300
practical advice, you'll find out what we really think. And it's so much fun. I love our podcast.
00:04:16.200
We get to talk together. I've had him on my podcast before, like before I changed my podcast
00:04:21.580
to actually include him. He did a couple of guest spots on it, but it was always so much fun that I just
00:04:27.420
wanted him to join regularly. So I said to myself, why not actually do that? Why not just have him
00:04:32.260
become a part of the podcast? So we came up with the name classically ever after. And by we, I mean,
00:04:37.940
he, he came up with that name, which I love. It's so cute. And it's just a really fun way for us to
00:04:44.600
share our thoughts with you guys. I mean, here's the thing at the end of the day, Jacob and I inform
00:04:49.480
each other's opinions all the time. So it's really kind of an important part of my content that I get to
00:04:54.400
share those kind of behind the scenes conversations with you guys. So that's the newest update. It is
00:05:00.280
so good guys. You should definitely sign up just for that. And it's appropriate for both men and
00:05:06.500
women because Jacob has a male perspective. I have a female perspective. So it's really a great podcast
00:05:11.520
for men and women. But the next thing that I've introduced to my Substack premium subscription is
00:05:18.400
the AV club. So now what we're going to do, we already have book club, which we love. So now we're
00:05:24.600
going to have the AV club where we watch a movie or maybe even an opera in the future. And we discuss
00:05:31.940
it all together once a month. So you watch the movie on your own. And then we just discuss it. So my plan
00:05:37.800
with the AV club is to watch films and then discuss them from a classic perspective. But I also want to
00:05:43.960
kind of dissect how the film industry's pervasive leftist ideology bleeds into all of the media that
00:05:50.580
we consume, which includes movies. And so much of our worldviews are really colored by the stuff that
00:05:55.840
we consume in TV and movies. I mean, so much of what we think is normal is stuff that we see as kids in
00:06:02.500
movies and TV. So I'm really looking forward to that. Our first movie is Breakfast at Tiffany's.
00:06:08.840
You guys know I love Audrey Hepburn. So we're starting with Breakfast at Tiffany's. And that is
00:06:13.360
another really exciting part. And last but not least are our monthly Zoom girl chats. So now we're
00:06:20.100
going to have an opportunity to have a chat just chilled out where we talk about relationships,
00:06:26.640
motherhood with other women in the community. I'm so excited about this because the AV club is great,
00:06:32.860
but it's very directed. So is the book club. But now we're going to have an opportunity to have a
00:06:37.140
little bit more of a freeform conversation. So three Zoom calls a month. We're going to have
00:06:42.860
the Zoom call for AV club, the Zoom call for book club, and the Zoom call for our monthly girl
00:06:48.820
chats. I really hope you guys will subscribe. I think there's a lot of awesome content that is
00:06:54.300
totally different than what we do here on my channel, but it's all in the same vein. And I
00:06:58.840
think you'll really appreciate the one-on-one contact that you'll have as being a premium subscriber.
00:07:04.400
So if you are interested, make sure to head over to classicallyabby.substack.com. It's only $7 a
00:07:10.860
month, which is really not a lot when you think about it, or you can sign up for the whole year
00:07:15.440
and get two months for free. So I hope I'll see you guys over on my Substack. Make sure to subscribe
00:07:20.920
