Hey there,

We heard you were excited about OZY Fest, the most interactive festival of the summer. We were too. We knew it would be hot with live music, insightful conversation, stand-up comedy and mouth-watering food from around the globe, but it turned out a little hotter than even we expected. Not to worry — we’re working on bringing it back. In the meantime, we want to introduce you to OZY, the brains (and the braun) behind OZY Fest.

You know that OZY Fest is a different kind of festival. Similarly, OZY is a different kind of media company. Instead of news that makes you angry or depressed, we only bring you stories that defy convention, change perspectives and ignite ideas. Our mission? To help the curious see the world more broadly and more boldly by introducing them to the New and the Next — rising stars, fresh trends, provocative ideas and boundary-pushing culture. We hope to bring you all that and more across news, podcasts, TV and, of course, festivals.

You can see that we strive to do things a little differently, and we think a curious person like you might like to do the same. We’d like to invite you to get started with a bit of OZY in your inbox each day. Catch up with the Presidential Daily Brief in the morning. Then vault ahead of the curve with the Daily Dose. Find the world in your inbox, right at your fingertips and become the smartest person at the watercooler, the most interesting dinner party conversationalist, or the most dangerous trivia night competitor.

If podcasts are more your thing, we’ve got those too. Or, if you have a craving for some sharp television, keep your eyes peeled for our new TV show with the Oprah Winfrey Network, launching later this month.

And, OZY Fest is again on the horizon, so stay tuned for more fun coming your way.

For all these updates and more, subscribe to our newsletters. See you in your inbox!

Best,
Team OZY
