Onest Supporter Circle

A small circle for a big year

ONEST is entering a defining chapter.

In 2026, I am launching 193 Voices — a long-term diplomatic interview project designed to listen to the world as it actually is — through direct conversations with ambassadors and senior diplomatic voices, one country at a time.

 

One country at a time. One voice at a time. All 193. At a time when global decisions are increasingly made behind closed doors, this project brings context back into the open — carefully, responsibly, and without spectacle.

 

This work requires time, independence, preparation, and trust.

The ONEST Supporter Circle exists to make that possible.
 

This is not a paywall.
This is not a donation drive.
This is a small, intentional circle of readers who want to be closer to the work — and help sustain it.

What it means to be a Supporter

Supporters are not “subscribers.”


They are part of the inner layer that allows ONEST to remain.

Supporters make it possible for this work to be done without urgency, outrage, or distortion.

  • independent

  • calm

  • fact-based

  • and human

 

Your support helps fund:

 

  • long-form geopolitical analysis (ONEST+)

  • off-the-record briefings and context

  • preparation for diplomatic interviews

  • quiet research time that does not fit into breaking news cycles

 

Most importantly, it allows this work to exist without noise or pressure.

Amount

$199

What you receive as a Supporter

Supporter Circle members receive:

  • Full access to ONEST+
    In-depth video deep dives and analysis, hosted on this site

  • Monthly off-the-record group conversations
    Private Google Meet discussions focused on context, not commentary

  • Behind-the-scenes access to 193 Voices
    A private audio journal and updates as the project develops — how interviews come together, what I’m learning, what doesn’t make headlines

  • Early access to major analyses and projects
    Including special briefings tied to global events

  • A direct line of communication
    Supporters can submit questions, themes, and countries for future work

 

This is a small circle by design.
Quality matters more than scale.

What remains free — always

$199

ONEST’s core mission does not change.

  • News Briefings remain free

  • Public articles remain free

  • Livestreams and major coverage remain accessible

 

The Supporter Circle exists so that free journalism can stay thoughtful and independent.

 

Practical details

  • Annual Supporter membership is $199 for one full year

  • This replaces monthly ONEST+ subscriptions on YouTube for the duration of the membership, if you are a subscriber

  • If you currently support ONEST through YouTube or Substack, this annual Supporter Circle is the simplest way to consolidate everything into one place.

  • ONEST+ content is hosted directly on ONESTNetwork.com (no YouTube subscription required)

  • Access details are sent by email after joining

Thank you for supporting thoughtful, independent journalism and diplomacy-focused storytelling.
This circle is intentionally small. I’m grateful you’re here.
