   Well, looks like Team Takei let the cat out of the bag, but it’s true. Today is my birthday! Admittedly, I’m going to be a bit shameless because of the occasion and ask you to help me win a bet. I told Brad that since I’m turning 86, I could get at least 86 readers to upgrade to a paid subscription to my Substack, #TheBigPicture.

   I understand many might not be familiar with the platform, so today's piece on The Big Picture breaks down the different ways you can support my Substack and help me win this bet (take that, Brad)! See you there: https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/george-takei-big-picture-birthday
