1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,560
is, um, we're starting to do what's called quick hits where we'll have the 35 minute,

2
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,880
you know, 45 minute episode, but then we also release like three to five minute

3
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:18,900
clips that can not only be repurposed on social media, but if someone's just,

4
00:00:18,900 --> 00:00:21,520
you know, on the go and they just want to hear those golden nuggets that are

5
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,600
like the best pieces of each episode, you can find those too.

6
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:26,340
Absolutely.

7
00:00:26,340 --> 00:00:30,800
I, because as much as people have the appetite for the long form stuff is like,

8
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,400
they also don't, or also they, it's a different world.

9
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,320
It's like, if we can give it to somebody on their Instagram feed, you might get them.

10
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:38,260
Yes.

11
00:00:38,260 --> 00:00:41,440
And I have to tell you one of my dirty little secrets when it comes to, uh,

12
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,840
listening to podcasts is I always use the pod catcher that has the ability to

13
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,260
speed up the time of the episode.

14
00:00:46,480 --> 00:00:50,940
So if it's like a 45 minute episode, I'll do it at like a 1.5 times speed so

15
00:00:50,940 --> 00:00:53,960
that it can be done in 30 minutes and I can get back to whatever it was doing.

16
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:54,760
Right.

17
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,320
Just right, just cram it down and move on.

18
00:00:58,100 --> 00:00:58,360
Yep.

19
00:00:58,980 --> 00:01:01,240
It's just one of those weird, uh, cork things that I do.

20
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,560
I do it with YouTube videos too.

21
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,120
If I'm like trying to learn something, I always look and see like, can I, can I

22
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,240
get this done a little bit faster so I can get the content and then get back to

23
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,520
this, you know, what I need to do.

24
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:12,200
Interesting.

25
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,120
I'm going to have to try that out.

26
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,360
It's kind of addicted to it though.

27
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,280
And it's bad because like then when people are talking in real time, I'm

28
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:19,840
like, can you talk a little faster?

29
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:21,160
That's hilarious.

30
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:21,760
Yeah.

31
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,600
Which is really not good.

32
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,920
You could say a lot of things about YouTube, maybe not being so good, but whatever.

33
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:29,760
Yeah.

34
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,240
But it's, Hey, I mean, I, I've learned a lot on YouTube.

35
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,680
I mean, I learned how to change my own, um, my lights on my car, like, you know,

36
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,160
my headlights, like that kind of stuff.

37
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:43,320
It's kind of wild how literally anything you could ever want to know you can find

38
00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:43,760
online.

39
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,600
Your exact make and model of car.

40
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,560
Sometimes the headlights on that thing.

41
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:48,840
Yeah.

42
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,080
Yep.

43
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,320
And that's exactly what it was.

44
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,760
Like I just Google exactly what you're looking for.

45
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,400
And, and that's kind of one of the cool things about podcasting too, is that, you

46
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:00,080
know, because people are talking about anything and everything, you never know

47
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,080
what you're going to find.

48
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,520
And, and once you do find it, you can be opened up to like a whole realm of

49
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:06,520
possibilities.

50
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,200
And I think that's one of the things that's so cool about this medium is not

51
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,080
only are people finally getting their messages out there, but they're, they're,

52
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,800
they're teaching people things that they didn't even know existed.

53
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:17,760
Absolutely.

54
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,360
I had a guy on my podcast.

55
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:20,640
Maybe you should have him on your show.

56
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:21,960
His name's Clayton Cutary.

57
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,360
He's out in Pittsburgh and he does a podcast about consciousness.

58
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,120
So things like psychedelics, meditation, all that sort of stuff.

59
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,760
What I learned talking to him was like mind blowing.

60
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,080
It wasn't stuff that I didn't know, but I just, I didn't understand it as well.

61
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,600
And then you talk to him and it's just like, but so he found his niche first

62
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,360
and then went for it.

63
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:40,440
That's awesome.

64
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:41,600
I absolutely love that.

65
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,680
So now with the, with your podcast, what do you see for the future of it?

66
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,640
And maybe even like the near future and beyond.

67
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:49,840
Yeah, good question.

68
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,200
Well, like I said to you, like the first hundred episodes, it was just a mishmash.

69
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:53,800
Some of it was good.

70
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,000
So it was bad that a lot of the like visual branding was pretty,

71
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,240
pretty corny on my part.

72
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,520
I had a friend finally tell me, he's like, you gotta, it's looks like, it doesn't

73
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:01,920
look great.

74
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:02,760
It looks a little cheesy.

75
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,280
It's like, okay.

76
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:04,880
So I changed the branding.

77
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,480
We went to this side of blue and orange, a little sleeker, and now I'm really

78
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:13,760
focusing on talking to entrepreneurs, people who are building people, not just

79
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,520
entrepreneurs, but creatives, artists.

80
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,200
You know, people who are building a legacy, people who are building something

81
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,160
bigger than themselves.

82
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,960
And then I want the podcast to be of use to them because I've got what I need out

83
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:24,960
of this podcast already.

84
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,200
Now I want to turn around and in some insane way think that I can maybe offer

85
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:30,640
something to other people.

86
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,160
It's just a chance to express their thoughts and then have those thoughts

87
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,680
packaged and used to promote themselves.

88
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:45,920
So that's the shift I think is making this useful to the guest for a change.
