Hello, and welcome back to another episode of Tech Talks and Soul Walks with myself, Julie Kubiak. Now I am here today in this episode to say that this is the end of the series of these episodes. I've done 19 more. Sorry. I've done 19. Which is actually 18 more than I thought I was going to do, well technically 17 because I did the first two. Then I kind of panicked and thought, what am I going to do? What am I going to talk about? But anyway, um, I thought I'd end this podcast episode and series with some highlights of the previous episodes. So take a look. Can you hear me this time? Yep. Can you see me? Yep. I can't believe this is a tech part of my podcast. And we've spent what, nearly an hour trying to get this working?! Yeah. Yeah, Yeah. an hour. It's doing my fliippin' head in right. So at 500, did that make any difference to your channel? To you? It was a massive thing. 'cause it was another massive achievement That, 500 people have subscribed to watch some ginger bloke go to football matches, film it, hear his opinion, and do that every week! Earliest, angel that I can remember seeing was, I think I was about 8, 9, and I was in church in the evening, and, just nodding off, as you do during the sermon. And, there was this beautiful angel in the window. And now behind the window, there was no street lights, it was, it was the church hall, and it was shut down, it was closed, there was no lights shining on or anything. And it was more the traditional angel that you draw when you're at school. You haven't seen my drawings though! You've had your hair done, haven't you? Hmm. You've had your hair done since the last episode. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah. It's uh, just a little trim. Yeah. Nice! Tidy it up a little bit. Okay, right, um... We started recording, so might as I carry on... You I've gone blank as to what we were going to talk about today. Okay, so we're gonna, we're just we should just wing it. Wing it, okay!Let's do, shall I just do the intro then? Yeah, we'll start This will end up being, meditation, okay then we'll go on about, to about cards. okay then, alright, this will probably end up being the intro anyway... You Fk this. We better start recording in case we lose it. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And as you can see, yet again, we have Lee Penn. Um, can't get rid of him. Sorry about this. No. No. He's either in videos or you can hear him, so he's either right in your face or he's in the background somewhere. It's a bit like, where's Wally? You can spot him a mile off, either or audible, he's just around. So, yes. Welcome back, Lee. How's things? Yes. Good. Good. It's good to be back. And it's, this is my third time. So it counts as a hat trick. Oh yeah, football references, whatever. And then hopefully, although that this is,it's not 12 months away. But there'll be a red carpet event for us all to go to, but this is next February. Would be nice to go to a red carpet event. What's happening? The Masquerading events happening February next year. Yes! Yes, I need to, uh, I need to go and find an outfit. Yeah. Yeah. If you get a black tie outfit for any charity event. Slap that one on. But yeah, I think it'd be absolutely fantastic if all of us YouTube Content Creators turned up and we were all there vlogging it and doing Shorts and everything else that we do, while partying all together. Because since the YouTube event back in August, you and I have been to an event each in November. Yeah. Yours was in Brighton and mine was in Birmingham. The same event but it was over two different nights, and, yeah, it'd just be great for us all to get back together. Yeah, and have a fantastic evening together really. So yeah. Yeah, it will be, that, that will be good. Obviously I'll be coming to it, once I know the date. Come and see what your Masquerading events are like. A lot of planning to get done. But yes, that'll be February. You you can even do it in McDonald's. Can you? Yeah. Yeah. They have, so when you go in they have benches in the middle, Oh yes, they do. And the little black circles are charging Charging ports. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, you see, I don't get out much. I'm learning something new every Podcast. That's it then. That's it for Tech Talks Soul Walks. Cause I've run out of stuff to say. See you later. And in the room today, if I get this right, I'm trying this pointing business. I think you're over there when I actually edit this. Over there. it. I like it. And in that direction over in New York, believe it or not, we have James from GuitarWithJames.com and welcome to our podcast, James. I'm, I feel very welcome and excited to talk about random stuff and accurate stuff or whatever we want to talk about. Got my caffeine, got my water. I'm happy. Good, good, good. So anybody that knows me from this podcast or outside of this podcast, you'll know that I'm a huge lover of rock music. Today in the room, I don't know where to point because we've had no end of technical problems week on week trying to get this video done. Um, I have Hayley aka BunnyMoonstone. Hi, hi everyone. Thanks for having me. That's okay. Um, just, just as an aside here, we have tried this. This has got to be our third proper big attempt, but fourth time that we're doing it. Third time lucky. Yeah, third time lucky. Yeah, and I think this is Google's way of saying we have to use Google Meet and not Descript for this one. Yes, because we met at a YouTube event. Anyway, today the reason I've got Bunny in the, um, Bunny in the room, this sounds a bit odd, but anyway, the reason we've got Hayley in the room, uh, is because we met at the YouTube event, um, nearly a year ago, and we just wanted to talk today about sort of like the differences between YouTube and other platforms. mention a bit about TikTok, numbers, loads and loads of different things. We'll just see where this, this interview goes. So what goals have you set yourself then for this year then, um, on the different platforms then? So with YouTube, I'm going to see how it goes. I'm just going to keep posting every day. And with TikTok, I'm aiming for 10k. That is the goal because when you hit 10k, that's when you get monetized, and that is the dream. TikTok it's just put your stuff out there and pray that it, that it happens. What like great advice. Put your stuff out there and pray and just sort of see what happens. I'm going to get a t-shirt made with that! Put your stuff out there and just pray. If I could like, just like, um, uh, uh, uh, sum up my journey of content creation, that's what it would be. Okay, that wraps up this episode. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it works Sometimes it doesn't work. You So anyway, I've got a, dog and he's a cockapoo and he is pitch black. Yeah, right. He's so black. So as I went up the stairs, he'd got for Christmas, he'd got this like orange chicken toy thing, which he loves, right. Squeaky thing. So, um, so I was going upstairs to the toilet and as I passed, and the light, the landing light wasn't on, so as I passed my bedroom, which was dark, right, above my bed, I could see this chicken thing. Levitating. And I thought, oh no, not again, not again. So I was running downstairs. Gets me Holy water, gets me cross. Runs in the bedroom to go and have a row with it. Because I'm not scared anymore now. Show it no fear! Now I'm gonna have a row with it, yeah. So I've gone in there, all armed up, put the light on, and there's me dog sitting on the bed with it in his teeth. But because it was pitch black, it looked like it was elevating. Do you know what I mean? So, sometimes you need to look at the logic before you think it's spiritual. But the good thing is, I wasn't scared this time, you know. I scare it now. I think I'd be scared if you came running at me with a cross and some holy water. I went in with a row, I was armed with me cross and me Holy water. He was gonna have it, you know! Bloody dog sitting there with chicken in his mouth. Oh God, couldn't stop laughing. End on a high note. Exactly, end on a high note. So, thank you very much to all of my subscribers and my viewers and my listeners, because obviously Podcasts are predominantly audio. And I'm not saying goodbye. Um, this is au revoir, so I will see you soon. I will see you in the next podcast, but in the meantime, I am taking some time out to record the next Podcast series, which is for Masquerading.
