Rewards Change
After a review of our rewards, we have decided to remove the 10 dollar level. The reason being, the casefile magazine takes way more time and costs more then we anticipated. It's not working out at the moment.
The 5 and 2 dollar levels will remain as is. The scripts will remain.
The 10 dollar pledges have been notified so they can alter there pledge amounts, or cancel all together if they wish.
If anyone has any ideas/comments/feedback on the reward levels in general, please let us know. We worked really hard on this patreon campaign, and I am dissapointed that we have had to can the magazine for now, but we are always open to feedback, ideas and critiscim (no matter how harsh).
If you have an idea for a reward (that doesnt involve bonus episodes) we are all ears.

In my opinion there are only a couple/few podcasts that are so good that the producers really deserve for it to be their only job in life. They've showed by doing it in the 1st place for free, and now for pretty much peanuts 🥜 while maintaining their regular jobs that it's something they truly love to do! It's a shame that they're not already paid like they should be when you have folks in mainstream media that could care less about what they do, the victims involved, and are no-doubt whining about having to put in the work...all from under their mansion's roof! It's only a matter of time before "word of mouth" makes this a reality in some respect! That will be a happy day! And we can all puff out our chests and be proud to have been on board from as early as we all are. Maybe we'll be WATCHING Casefile on Thursday nights at 8 on NBC someday?!. $$$ It's up to US!
Wow thank you Jay. Very nicely put. We really appreciate that. Casefile on NBC!! Now there's a thought!
I really look forward to your podcast! You guys are doing a phenomenal job bringing your audience a "glued to your iPod" or whatever device your happen to be listening to. You're like a "real page turner" show! You're awesome! A True Fan... Carol from Chicago
Thank you Carol.
We are blown away by it. Thank you Kishi
Love seeing all the support for the Casefile team here! Perks are great but the real gift is your content and as long as the podcasts keep coming you'll have some very happy fans!
That's okay -- use the time for your podcasts.
You could always record a ringtone of "1999" as a reward ;)
Haha, good idea!
My support will not be changing either, until I can afford to increase it, that is! I sure would Buy a t-shirt or mug, if you are looking into those as funding options. Casefile rocks!
Thanks, we are looking into merch too, just not enough time to get around to do everything:)
I'm a graphic designer so I completely understand what it takes to get the magazine out. I personally was wondering how you did it with all the research that must go into creating a podcast! Keeping my donation as it is, Casefile is great!
Thank you
In all seriousness, I would bet most of us don't support Casefile for the perks. I totally understand that the magazine would take a ton of time. We support you because Casefile is amazing. The research, time, and effort you and your team put into each episode is incredible. We love you! ☺️
Thank you Jamee! We really appreciate it!
What about releasing episodes early to Patreon supporters? Or hosting a private Q&A with us? Or secretly telling us your name? 😜 Hehe.
There will be another Q&A session on 27th, details in post below:)
Hi Hi , complete agreement !!
I agree with Kym. Just chuck in the occasional stickers etc originally listed. I'm happy to keep paying $10.
Yep. Katrina is correct . Obviously a Broncos supporter ! Intelligently said. Lol
I don't mind continuing to pay $10 without the magazine - I think many others will too! It was just a bit too ambitious to produce a magazine and do all the research etc that you are undertaking to produce such high quality podcasts. In my opinion, the latest podcasts completely warrant a $10 subscription. Come on listeners, back me up and continue to pledge the $10 to support the casefile team!!!
Yep Kym . 100%
No we cant do bonus episodes. No time!
haha.
LOL. No bonus episodes eh? Sadness. Maybe you could give away your voice on someone's message on their phone. (We all love your voice soooo much!)
Yes, a voice giveaway...Works for me!!!
