War on the Rocks Platinum
A note from Ryan Evans, Founder & CEO
Armed with a mic, a bar tab, and more than a little help from my friends, I launched War on the Rocks in 2013 to recenter experienced voices on matters of war, peace, and national security.
We have grown a lot since then. You come to War on the Rocks not just because of our high-quality articles and podcasts, but because we create an experience that allows you to feel more connected to a committed community. We aim to be the hub of that community and give you more content. Our membership program, War on the Rocks Platinum, allows us to fund what we do, pay our staff, and invest in giving you more. The price goes up every year, yes, but we seek to earn that by giving you so much more.
The membership has completely changed in just the last few months and we’ve worked hard to add a full suite of new member content including a suite of new podcasts, newsletters, and bonus features for our members. And we’re just getting started.
I hope you consider joining.
