How The Free Press turned an independent media brand into a real-world supper club — sending 2,000 subscribers to dinner across 30 cities on a single night.
The Free Press is an independent media company founded by Bari Weiss, known for fearless, heterodox journalism. Their Supper Club, powered by DNNR, turns that audience into real-life community — sending subscribers out to dinner in matched groups of six at restaurants across the world, then bringing everyone in each locale together at a shared after-party.
With 2M+ subscribers who read the same journalism and share a thirst for truth, The Free Press has a massive audience with deep passion for the brand.
DNNR made it easy to activate that audience at scale — handling the matching, restaurant coordination, automated email and SMS flows, cancellations, reshuffling, and customer support behind the scenes.
In just two evenings, The Free Press Supper Club sent over 4,000 subscribers to dinner across 30+ cities — from Los Angeles to Tel Aviv. The format works because the hard parts are invisible: guests simply show up to a curated table where the shared context is already there. Conversation skips the small talk.
"Getting people to talk around a table is part of our mission."

Free Press friends and family tested out the DNNR platform in two NYC neighborhoods to ensure a smooth experience before rolling it out worldwide.
The Free Press turns its 2M+ subscribers into a real-world community, sending 2k+ readers to matched dinners of six across 30 cities.
The Free Press Supper Club expands to 39 cities. The theme is America at 250—throwing birthday dinners for the country, Free Press style.



"The afterparty was very much 'a rabbi, an episcopal priest, and an economics professor walked into a bar'..."
"It felt like we'd been able to skip all the perfunctory small talk. I really appreciated that we could speak freely on hot button issues and have respectful disagreement — exactly what I'd expect from Free Press subscribers."
"An inspiring event that exceeded my expectations. Strangers were immediately willing to have an open and genuinely interesting night of conversation."
"Great to meet new people with the Free Press. All different walks of life and views, but we had good interesting conversation. I would absolutely do it again."
