The first audio season contains six complete readings from the open textbook, openly labeled computer narration. Each has an MP3, transcript, sources and a podcast feed. The Charitology Letter has a published first issue and its own RSS feed. Email signup asks for explicit consent and a deliberate action in a confirmation email before joining; each letter includes unsubscribe controls. Confirming does not automatically send a past issue. A guest interview series and a fixed publication schedule are not established.
Principles read aloud: Season 1
Six complete readings, about 36 minutes in total. The audio uses computer narration from the standard macOS Samantha voice, without voice cloning. These are textbook readings, not interviews; the text remains an editorial draft.
