How the queue works

There's no leaderboard. There's a queue.

We don't run a public vote. Inbound requests are reviewed weekly and added to the editorial queue based on a few honest priorities, in this order:

01
Founders first
Founding Circle members get a 30-day SLA. Two requests per founder per year, scored ahead of the public queue.
02
Editorial relevance
Titles that fit a planned listicle, Brain Diet, or methodology piece get prioritized so the score lands when readers need it.
03
Public requests
Everything else is reviewed weekly. We score 5 to 15 reader-requested titles per month, sequenced by what's available to watch.

Before requesting, check /explore/ — there are 2,338 titles already scored. If the show you're thinking of has aired since the last update, it's probably already in our queue. We notify the email above when it's live.
