Buy (or Upgrade) a Ricochet Membership, Win a Chance to See GLop Culture Live in D.C.
From April 30 to May 2, the National Review Institute will be hosting its 2015 Ideas Summit at the Willard InterContinental hotel in Washington D.C. The agenda features a stunning array of conservative pundits and intellectuals, plus major political figures like Jeb Bush, Tom Cotton, John Kasich, Bobby Jindal, Paul Ryan, Marco Rubio, and Ben Sasse. It also features a live taping of Ricochet’s GLoP Culture podcast with Jonah Goldberg, Rob Long, and John Podhoretz on the evening of April 30, to be followed by a late night Ricochet meetup featuring the entire GLoP team, Ricochet mastermind The Blue Yeti, Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Troy Senik, and other members of the National Review family.
We’re pleased to announce that any reader who purchases a Ricochet membership in the next 48 hours — or any existing member who upgrades to a Thatcher or Reagan level membership — will be entered into a pool to win a complimentary ticket to attend the summit. Simply join here (new members should use the coupon code APRIL for a free month) to enter. We hope to see you in Washington!

And I bet this podcast Trumps every one that came before it.
I recently upgraded the Thatcher membership. I have received no mug. I therefore respectfully demand that I be put in the running for said free ticket, retroactively. Yes, I demand. And by demand I do mean request. And by request I do mean “I probably wouldn’t go if I won because, well, I’m so broke I can’t afford to pay attention.”
Really I just want my mug. And by want I do mean want. Not need. Just want.
Also, I would like PRob to sign my kindle version of his book.
“Ideas summit” is a misnomer if Justin Amash isn’t there.
Spin, check your PMs. We’ll get you a mug, pronto.
w00t!
This seems to be the best approach to getting the mug. I hadn’t gotten mine…mentioned it in the comments….mug came. A fellow Thatcherite in my office hasn’t mentioned his lack of mug….still no mug. RINOS!
Not complaining, I have my mug :)
Who is the mysterious Thatcherite and why hasn’t he PM’d me or EJHill directly?
Spin, still waiting for a reply to my PM…
He is Randy Webster and he may have forgotten about the mug while complaining he can’t get a Ricochet lapel pin. :)
Hi Blue Yeti!
I also upgraded to the Thatcher membership, but the perk I’m interested is the after-podcast get-together at the Ideas Summit (as promised on the podcast). We already have tickets to the Summit, but the opportunity to have a drink with the stars of the GLoP Podcast was too tempting to pass up.
Is there a secret handshake? A knowing glance? Or do I just need to tell the folks at registration?
Great promotional idea, and we’re looking forward to meeting our fellow Ricocheti at the event!
Even better than a mug, though I wouldn’t turn one down!
I left you a PM but will repeat the details for others:
We are meeting at the Old Ebbitt Grill (675 15th St NW, Washington, DC 20005) after the Night Owl session at the NRI Ideas Summit tonight. I expect that will be around 9:30PM, depending on how long the Night Owl session goes.
Hope to see you all there!
