Here are our very modest goals for this year's MaxFunDrive.

Disclaimer: we do not know how to do the livestream, but if enough of you join/upgrade, we WILL find out!

We will also be adding more goals as an when we meet these targets.

MaxFunDrive 2026 is here!

Hey, have you ever noticed the system where you give a billionaire in Silicon Valley ten pounds a month and then you wait for them to give you shows you like doesn't *always* work out? Well, luckily, there is an alternative: https://maximumfun.org/join/

@maxfunhq is a worker-owned podcast network that lets artists like @jlukeroberts make podcasts like Sound Heap. But these podcasts take time to make and time is, as you know, money. So once a year we spend a fortnight asking you to support the shows you love.

You can become a Maximum Fun member for as little as $5/month - that's £3.70! In exchange you get access to over a decades' worth of exclusive bonus content, such as Sound Heap's crossover episodes with @sleepwcelebs and @beefanddairynetwork, and @gralefrit's interview of John-Luke.

If you sign up for $10/month (£7.40!), you will also receive an exclusive enamel pin from the show of your choice; this year, Sound Heap's is Elty Jom-themed!

Support the artists who make the art you love. It really does make all the difference in getting these shows made.

Launched today: the Smelt store, where brilliant writers have listed scripted audio comedy series they would love to make. If you want to hear them, pledge £14 and if about 4,999 other people do the same, you'll get to hear it.

More series are going to be added, but at the moment there's series from Mark Evans, @dfdubz, @aliterative, Andy Hamilton, @larryandpaulcomedy, @state_pensioner, @gralefrit & @benjaminwillbond, @eddierobson78 and @aglasgowgirl.

Each one will be wonderful and unique. Each one needs you, or someone like you, to fund it.
