1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,600
So I'm curious with, um, with podcasting, do you just have one podcast now and then

2
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:14,320
you're like your day job or, or how does that, how does that look for you?

3
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,180
Yeah, you know, I'm not even podcasting right now, uh, which is, uh, kind of it's,

4
00:00:19,180 --> 00:00:19,840
uh, it's okay.

5
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,940
So I have a client, um, uh, I guess you call it the big fish client.

6
00:00:23,940 --> 00:00:27,360
I have a big fish client that I help edit podcasts for.

7
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:32,640
So, um, that to me is very important to make sure that his podcast is, um, you

8
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,100
know, tip top shape, um, has the right sound equalization normalization.

9
00:00:37,100 --> 00:00:40,380
I mean, all the nerdy geeky stuff that, you know, you could talk to just about

10
00:00:40,380 --> 00:00:43,440
any podcast or out there and podcast editor and like, oh, you got to do it this

11
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,000
way, but these are settings that I've been using from day one when I started a radio.

12
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:52,760
And, um, my client has always been happy with how I have, uh, I've, you know,

13
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,200
created those podcasts for him.

14
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:58,640
So for me to create a podcast is something that just, you know, it fell off the wayside.

15
00:00:58,640 --> 00:00:59,840
I did have a YouTube channel.

16
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,020
Actually I still do have a YouTube channel that provides a lot of great content.

17
00:01:03,020 --> 00:01:07,120
And I think, um, a lot of people and a lot of the subscribers on that channel,

18
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,720
they consider that as, you know, air quotes.

19
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,220
I don't like doing air quotes, but air quotes, a podcast, they consider that a

20
00:01:13,220 --> 00:01:17,180
podcast and that's kind of the direction where we're going now these days where a

21
00:01:17,180 --> 00:01:20,960
lot of people are seeing that there is this, uh, this correlation, this relationship

22
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:25,360
between audio and video and people for some reason love to see video.

23
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:26,560
And I've never seen it that way.

24
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,160
I've always seen it as just audio specific content that you're developing.

25
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:36,680
But now with the innovations with Spotify and now YouTube going to be jumping into

26
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:41,120
the video podcasting game, uh, which I always just thought it was called vlogging,

27
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,480
but you know, now it's called video podcasting.

28
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:48,720
Um, you know, it's something that's going to be, you know, very, very

29
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,240
relevant in the near future.

30
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,000
Once YouTube gets ahold of it, then that's what I think is going to happen.

31
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,000
But to back to your original question, I don't have a podcast.

32
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,680
I have a YouTube channel with a lot of great content that's on there that teaches

33
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,800
people all about the ins and outs of the beginning journey of that podcast.

34
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,360
And then I just kind of stepped off the wayside of that.

35
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,880
Um, you know, life happened and, um, you know, uh, things just kind of, you know,

36
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:18,680
I stopped doing it because, uh, there was a sense of burnout and not saying that

37
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:25,200
I'm still burned out, but, um, I do believe and follow the, um, the philosophy

38
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:30,640
of, you know, exercise, you know, like I'm a Yogi, I do yoga every day, power yoga.

39
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:35,000
And, you know, when you get tired, you take a break, you stop and you rest.

40
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,120
And I think that's very important for, uh, anyone who's doing anything that

41
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:45,320
requires you to, uh, go out there and, um, give it your all every single day.

42
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,680
I still help people with podcasts.

43
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,400
I still have clients that come to me and ask me questions about podcasts.

44
00:02:51,640 --> 00:02:55,240
I still have another client that reaches out to me and is looking

45
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,680
to for help with his website.

46
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,040
But for me, I have to take a step back from the actual content creation side,

47
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,080
because it was overwhelming me to the point to where I couldn't even get out

48
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,920
of bed and just, you know, the thought process of thinking, what am I going to

49
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:12,360
create today, which is a good and a bad thing, because one thing you can always

50
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,520
say is like, what am I going to create today and how excited am I going to be

51
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,120
about that, but there was a point in time where it just got to the point where I

52
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,960
was like, I'm not excited right now.

53
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:48,960
Um, and when you're not excited, you create terrible content.
