Has anyone ever tried one of the MasterClass subscriptions? Their ads before my YouTube videos have me tempted.

I pulled the trigger and love it. Gifted the free membership to my parents. Great change of pace from Netflix

Everything I have watched is not interview style, it’s instructional in nature and comes with PDFs, etc. for consumption.

It looks well made, but expensive

Bs

Haven’t tried it but they must be flush with cash. Natalie Portman, Gordon Ramsey, Martin Scorsese, Timbaland... insane list. I imagine it’s worth it if you have a strong vocational or personal interest in one of their subject areas.

I’m super tempted too, but then I think about it and realize even Carlos Santana can’t teach me guitar in like 4h. The cooking ones are probably legit but not worth the price.

I think it’s worth it if you split it with someone. $90-ish for a year of something other than mindless Netflix, Hulu, etc. They’re broken into bit size chunks so you can do a couple “lessons” at a time. It’s not the best way to necessarily *master* something, but it’s super cool to learn new things from people who are famous and great at them.

My company was just acquired by a private equity firm. We’ve been around for 25+ years and have been a public company. They say “business as usual” for now, and I feel like the product I work in is pretty safe. I also received direct, positive feedback from the company’s COO surrounding my leadership. I recognize there can be positives and negatives to this type of acquisition, but I’m curious if anyone has any tips, feedback, personal experiences, etc. they can share?
