This episode brings together two key voices in digital journalism: Filips Lastovskis, Editor-in-Chief of Delfi Latvia, and Urmo Soonvald, Editor-in-Chief of Delfi Estonia.

    Together, they explore what it takes to convince readers to support journalism financially — from the early days of subscription models to navigating cultural attitudes, economic realities, and trust in media.
