Every Saturday deserves a plan. Here’s yours.
Saturday is the best day of the week. It deserves a plan.
Every Saturday, there’s a slate of games worth watching, a menu worth making, a playlist worth queuing up, and about four hours of prep that most of us do badly and at the last minute. I got tired of scrolling through ESPN trying to figure out which game was on which channel at 3:30, then Googling “easy dip recipe” at 11:47, then realizing I forgot limes. So I started planning the whole day in advance — the games, the menu, the run of show, the grocery list, even the playlist. It worked. Saturdays got better.
The Saturday Slate is that plan, delivered to your inbox every Wednesday morning — early enough to shop, invite people over, and actually be ready by kickoff.
Each week you’ll get:
The Slate — the games actually worth watching, when they’re on, and where to find them
The Menu — a dip, a main, a dessert, a drink, all from creators who do it better than I ever could, with a run of show so nothing hits the table cold
The Grocery List — printable, organized by store section
The Pre-Game — a playlist to cook to
The Fit & The Gear — what to wear, what to own, what to gift
And because Saturdays don’t stop when football does, The Saturday Slate runs year-round. Kentucky Derby. The Masters. March Madness. Mardi Gras. The NFL Draft. The Fourth. Back to school. Any Saturday worth showing up for gets a playbook.
I’m Henderson. I am not a chef, a stylist, or a sommelier. I am someone who loves college football, loves having people over, and believes a well-produced Saturday is one of life’s great small luxuries. I make The Saturday Slate because I wanted it to exist.
Free subscribers get the weekly Slate — the games, the marquee pick, and a taste of the menu. Paid subscribers get the full playbook — the complete menu with links, the run of show, the grocery list, the printable, the fit, and the gear — every week of the season and every Saturday of the offseason.
For the love of Saturday. See you Wednesday.
