Hello! I’ve been a subscriber for a while — a year at least I think — and I’ve never been able to find the link to join live. I live in Utah and am not a morning person, so this hasn’t bothered me, but I wanted to let you know in case it was a factor in the recent lost subscriptions. Maybe Substack isn’t behaving quite as expected?

Thank you for your work, you are a great American!

I think you join via the Riverside Studio link at the end of the Dog Shirt Daily posts that are only for paid subscribers, like at the very end of the Baby Kakapo post from Feb 19 (I can’t share the Riverside studio link here because we aren’t supposed to share it in posts where free subscribers can access the link). I’m hoping someone else can do a better job of answering this, because the only times I’ve joined live, I’ve done so through YouTube and Substack. As a side note, I’m in Portland, Oregon, so a 5am live show is usually a bit too early for me, but I’m always there in spirit! (& of course I watch it later)

This is what the text of the end section with the “DSTV 2025 Riverside studio” link looks like, but without the actual hyperlink here (this is from the Feb 19 post):

“Please join us live for #DogShirtTV events, including meetings of the MARA Book Club, in the DSTV 2025 Riverside studio. Please do not share this link with non-subscribers as doing so will undermine #DogShirtDaily’s business model. This link will change periodically but the current link will always be available in the dog shirts announcing the relevant show.”

Yup it’s definitely there thanks. I managed to confuse myself by having a free subscription with my other email in addition to the real one.

I have this problem as well. I can only access from Substack. I went to dogshirtdaily.com and signed in there (still through Substack) but no luck there either today.

Loaded the Riverside app once. Like to think I am somewhat computer literate but NO.

I’m a paid subscriber who is on the West Coast (Portland) and not a super early morning person, so I’m rarely able to watch/participate live. But I do watch every single show, and I also tell other people about it (& share links)! Really looking forward to the MARA short this next Sunday 😊

I just subscribed on Friday and wonder if I’ll be able to watch the 8 AM show. Not sure how to find it. Can somebody help?
